Abhigya FF: WOH HUMSAFAR THA last ch pg 76dt 9.4.16 - Page 24

Disconnecting the call he picked up the pen to sign the papers when he felt some movement around, lifting his head he found shalini standing at the door step of the study. Dropping the gaze once again he began doing the needful.

Shalini with a nervous smile on her lips came in and stood right across his table.

" I need a minute of yours."

Flipping the pages of the file he nodded his head allowing her to continue. She fidgeted with the end of her sari, thinking how to put her thoughts into proper words.

" lately so many factories have come up in ratnagiri causing lot of pollution."

He drew his brows together in confusion, she wanted to discuss with him the growing level of pollution in town? Had she really lost it?

Figuring out his confusion she attempted to elaborate by saying ," I mean all this pollution is harmful for pragya and the baby?" keeping the file aside he stated instantly," but she hardly goes out."

shalini shook her head in agreement, true pragya hardly stepped out of the house but what she wanted to say was," but we can't keep her in the house all the time."

Abhi really didn't know where this conversation was heading and on the verge of losing his temper he shot back," shalini I don't have all day, either you stop talking in riddles or you leave this room."

slightly stunned on hearing his high pitch voice she took a deep breath and rattled everything that she wished to say in one go," pragya is not keeping well these days ...I spoke to her doctor she said that along with rest pragya needs a clean and healthy environment to move around."

Pulling out his chair he sat and leaned his back against it before saying," so?"

" also you know in coming weeks it will be hard to conceal that in reality pragya is carrying the baby and not me."

Taking the paper weight in his hand he began spinning it, from day one he was aware that such a big thing could never remain hidden from the people of ratnagiri, eye brows would definitely rise on seeing her bulging stomach and on top of that they would also wonder why she was staying here for so long but then... this was not his idea.

He failed to understand what was the need for her to declare that she was pregnant in front of everyone that day in the temple? She was falling into her own trap and he wasn't feeling sorry for her.

She noticed his expressionless face, there wasn't an iota of concern for her and if he thought that her plan was back firing then he was absolutely wrong, he had no idea what was going on in her mind. Her nervousness was now giving way to her confidence, now she wanted to see if he would still remain unaffected on hearing about her next step.

" but I have a solution ."

" what?" he asked placing his one arm on the arm rest while the other one still spun the paper weight. She took a few seconds to disclose her plan, till then he rested more comfortably in his chair and began twirling it slowly, waiting for her to proceed.

" pragya and I shall move out from this town."

His chair came to an abrupt halt and he stopped spinning the paper weight in fact he gripped it even harder in his fist. His ears couldn't believe and his mind failed to comprehend what she'd said.

" both of us will go to a place where nobody would know us." She completed herself, this was the only option she had. There was pin drop silence, neither of them spoke a word. Suddenly he felt a vacuum within him as his senses went numb.
