"Arjun kitna late hogaya hai? yeh koi waqt hai ghar ane ka?" Padma scolded him as he walked inside this late.. "Sorry mama!! Nitin ka Birthday ho to ussko ditch nahi kar sakte!!" Arjun bit his lower lip while explaining himself..
"Kya matlab ditch nahi kar sakte.. yeh koi tareeqa hai??" Padma glared at him..
"Arre mama kahin idhar udhar thodi gaya tha!! Trust me, direct cinema se yahin araha hun!!" Arjun smiled and walked forward to manofy Padma.. "Ab har koi di ki tarah apni yeh age barbaad to nahi kar sakta naa!!" He tried to make fun of Shilpa.. He had no idea what Shilpa has accused Padma of..
"Kya matlab hai tumhara?? ussne apni yeh age barbaad ki thi??" Padma was stern..
"Haan to??? Parhai k saath mauj masti bhi zaroori hoti haina?? Riddhima di bhi to thi.. hasti khelti rehti thi aur ek yeh thi.. bus padhai, har class mein position aur mere hisaab se to apki sab se sasti bachi woh hogi.. Almost poori education scholarship pe hasil ki hai ussne!! itni chunni si pocket money mein bhi ussko kabhi extra zaroorat nahi parti thi.." Arjun commented while making a face..
"Fuzul kharch nahi thi wo tumhare aur Riddhima ki tarah.." Padma scolded..
"Fuzul kharch?" Arjun raised his brow.. "Mumma!! Wo necessary kharch bhi nahi karti thi.." He quipped.. "Infact..." He went into his thoughts.. "Now i realise wo jataye bagair humare liye kitna sacrafise karti thi... Hehh mujhe nahi yaad ussne kabhi bhi complain ki.." He pressed his lips together coming of his thoughts...
"Arjun..." Padma went silent..
"Kya tumhe lagta hai k maine Shilpa ki Armaan k saath shaadi karwa usske saath koi zyaadti kardi hai??" She asked after a long silence and thoughtful look on her face.. She was tired of thinking all alone and was only resulting in more and more difficulties and depression... She so felt like she needed Shilpa! She wants to talk to her and bridge the gap that has developed between the two...
"Mumaa..." Arjun was dumbfonded.. After Shilpa's wedding he did felt a hole in his life and became a bit serious.. A sense of responsibility came to him, he started thinking a bit maturely but then Riddhima's death, Shilpa' divorce and then Shilpa's forced marriage to Armaan shook him up terribly from inside.. These all things happened one after another and in a rush that he didn't actually got time to react and stabalize.. He was just going with the flow life was taking him through but then like a silence after storm everything stopped...
He had to look after and care about his mother, the only thing he had and so he did everything she wanted and supported her anyways.. He was not stable/mature/strong enough to take a stand or stay neutral and try to understand everyones perspective...
Shilpa was taken as granted by him.. She was more like an elder brother to him, a guide, a friend.. After her marriage with Armaan, when the storm ended or atleast looked like it ended, he got the time to become stable and then he started feeling it!!
It was a hole!! He felt a hole in his heart.. One sister dead and One lost!! He again took his sweet time to recover from Riddhima's death and then actually strange things started happening with him...
He got a hard project, he needed help and he needed to he extraordinary good in it to claim a position and so no friend can help.. They were competing for the same and 'Shilpa Di' ranged inside his brain like always.. She was always the magical solution of his problems.. But she didn't picked up any calls and when he went to check, he got the whole story, realisation and more realisation!!!
Not just being sister, she was also taken for granted as being a daughter!! Like Million times he has heard her plans and goals, he had seen her running around the clocking, putting all her hardwork just to acheive and maintain her position.. He has never seen her disobeying Padma, He had never seen her landing into fight with Riddhima or him.. From the time he has started keeping memories, he has only seen her protecting them and offering things and help but never ever keeping a demand forward unless it was necessary...
He realised what kind of a person she was, what her goals were, what she wanted to be and what she ended up like thanks to emotional dramas. But... It was too late! Shilpa was now gone and lost forever he presumed.. Arjun was petrified after finally seeing what life and they all did to her.. Maybe her marriage with Armaan was good for kids and everyone else and even for her.. But was Right?? Is every good thing has to be right??
The sparkle from her eyes got lost.. Thinner and white she became, messed up between kids made Arjun picture her at the AirPort. The last time he saw her leaving India along with Angad.. That smile, sparkle, glow on her face. The way she waved bye to all of them and lightly punched on Angad's shoulder as a result of his flirty comment on her..
It was a THEN and NOW story and as the more days passed by, the more realisations hit Arjun, made him mature, encouraged him to workharder and yes did made him guilty and cry.. He actually laughed at himself when for the first time he stopped complaining to Padma for something and tried to kept it only inside him.. He was trying to copy his elder sister telling himself that he couldn't do anything to save her, he didn't listen her, didnt tried to understand her but he will atleast try to be strong and be a responsible and Independent Hardworking Guy..
"Mamma please.. " Arjun sighed shaking his head, looking down; clearly showing his avoidance to the topic.. "Matlab tumhe lagta hai k maine zyaadti ki hai??" Padma asked slowly..
"Mujhe nahi pata.. Lekin usse poochna zaroori tha!! Aurr app mein se kisi ne usse kabhi bhi kuch nahi poocha.." He couldn't stop saying this much..
"Tumhe wo khush nahi lagti?? Tumhe nahi lagta waqt k saath sab theek hogaya hai??" Padma asked slowly with hopefull eyes.. She just wanted someone to tell her she did right and Shilpa's allegations were all wrong and meaningless..
"Wo chehre pe jhooti muskaan sajana seekh gayi hai mama!! Mujhe nahi pata kitni khush hai aur kitni nahi..." Loosing his control, Arjun finally started speaking.. "Mujhe bus itna pata hai k wo apni pehli shaadi se khush thi aur shayad Angad jiju se pyaar bhi karti thi!!" He led out a deep breath... "Ussne bataya tha mujhe shaadi se pehle k wo kis tarah unse mili thi aur yeh bhi k unhun ne usse promise kiya hai k wo usse kaam karne deinge.. He would let her explore herself!!" Arjun sat down on the carpet feeling a touching emotion for Shilpa...
"Hum sab Riddhima di ki maut aur Armaan jiju, Ahaana Ayaan!! Itna ghoom gaye iss sab mein k ek baar poochne pe jab ussne nahi bataya k Angad jiju se divorce kyun hua to dobara poochne ki zehmat he nahi ki.." Arjun closed his eyes while shaking his head.. "Kya app wajah jaanti hain??" He asked looking up at Padma who he didn't realized when sat down infront of him on the carpet..
Silence..
Padma was silent and just looking at him.. Maybe she would have tried to find the answer earlier but After ArmaanShilpa mariage it was all about them only.. Padma never actually got a chance to look back and find answers.. she was very much preoccupied with thoughts over Armaan Shilpa's cold relationship and her own relationship with Shilpa. Indeed a human being starts to change with the age, then there are situations and circumstances which change them and limit their thoughts..
A young human being would be far broad minded and might see situations with a whole new different, fresh and clear perpective but an old one with the age and time turns still and hard and limits everything.. Its like a plant!! Easy and flexible in the beginning till its green.. the more it gets darker, it becomes strong and hard; can not be moulded easily and when it turns brown; its still and hard! It will break but not flexibly turn or mould..
After Riddhima! There was no chance Padma was loosing Shilpa or let her get away from her eyes.. Armaan had kept Riddhima happy till she died and Padma whole heartedly trusts him with Shilpa aswell.. It just appeared in her heart that he kept her one daughter so happy! He would also keep her other daughter happy! Another plus point were the two small angels of Riddhima! Being Riddhima's mother, there was a possessiveness in her that she wants them close.. Not a chance would stand that her heart will accept someone else as their mother or somehow cut off her connection with them.. It was not like Shilpa was a cost for all this.. But it was like this was one of the thing Padma has in her.. Riddhima's death made her possessive of her belongings and Shilpa..
Angad on the other hand was a good son-in-law and Padma as per Arjun's question should have tried to question him and found out the reason of divorce some how But the actual truth was that Padma was left with no interest in him.. Yes! He is a good human being but no matter what ever the reason was behind the divorce; he had hurt her daughter, Padma internally became so possessive of.. Divorce between Angad and Shilpa formed a grudge against Angad in Padma's heart and so she then never actually thought about him... It was all SHILPA, SHILPA and SHILPA till Annanya filled Padma's mind regarding ArmaanShilpa together and then there was no looking back.
She had no idea that her possessiveness towards Shilpa was turning Shilpa against her making her think that its Riddhima Padma is trying to find inside her.. It was all the game of different perspectives and then reactions according to situations..
"Din raat ek kar k ussne itni mehnat se apne app ko iss laiq banaya k wo kuch kar sake.. Yeh app ko bhi pata hai k wo typical gharelu type kabhi nahi thi.. Mumma wo kya banna chahti thi aur iss shaadi ne usko kya bana diya?? Ab usko ghar aur bachon se fursat he nahi.. Apne din raat ussne isliye tabah kiye thai?" Arjun asked the question that occured to him when few months back he worked so hard for his exams and got good but not the exceptional result he was expecting!! He was discouraged and hurt but then his heart just felt like calling his sister and sharing and in return he has his confidence boosted once again and also a realization and guilt that his sister is suffering.. It took her years to grow feathers and when they were ready to fly, they were slottered and now she is a mess.. "Bache uski choice to nahi thai.. Subha samandar k kinaare bhaagti doorti apne din ki shuruat karne wali, i doubt ab ghar se bhi do kadam bahar nikaalti hai pooche bagair.." He sighed..
silence
"Agar uski Armaan se shaadi na hoti.. to kya tumhe yaqeen hai k wo wohi Shilpa dobara se ban jati jiski tum baat kar rahe ho??" Padma asked softly with moist eyes.. "Kyunki Riddhima aur Angad k baad mere bohat dhoondne pe bhi mujhe wo Shilpa nahi mili.. Tumhe lagta hai wo ahista ahista uss andhere kamre se bahar ajati?? Sab kuch bhool k pehle wali Shilpa ban jaati??" Tears came out of Padma's eyes..
This time Arjun became silent.. Now he was done expressing his perspective and was listening to his mother's which left him speechless.. "Kya wo sirf mujhe he khud se badla leyti dikh rahi thi?? Mujhe sach batao Arjun.. kya hum usse kho nahi rahe thai??" Padma wanted answers over her perspectives.. She clearly remembered how she wants to talk to her, be with her and Shilpa was shutting everyone out.. She have seen her not feeling any hunger and turning more and more weak.. She remembered making her favorite dishes and she looking angrily at everything and eating only a bite and that too with great difficulty when forced.. And the one day she exploded a bomb by saying that she is leaving city for work and will stay where work will take her.. A Shilpa that lashes out was never seen before and it was a clear sign of danger of loosing her and then again there were no second thoughts about her getting married to Armaan..
Maybe there would have been another way to deal with Shilpa but to Padma, ArmaanShilpa's marriage seems the only way which could result in fulfilling all her wishes and get rid of all her fears of loosing her and Riddhima's children.
"Hehh!!" Arjun led out a sad laugh at himself.. This was surely a situation where NO ONE can take a good look of all the shades "Main app ki hadd tak nahi soch sakta mamma!! App bhi ghalat nahi hain.. Hum di ko almost kho he to chuke thai!!" He took a deep breath.. "Mujhe nahi lagta main iss mamle mein koi judgement pass kar sakta hun!! Aur ajj k baad to bilkul nahi!!" He got up from his place and lightly caressed Padma's shoulder.. "All i know is that mere pass sirf app hain and i love you!!" He lightly placed a kiss on her cheek and them wiped away her tears.. "Itna mat sochiye.. " He tried to console Padma and took her to her room..
Switching off the lights, Arjun went to his own room to change and sleep but Padma still was in her thoughts.. Shilpa's allegations were too harsh and hurtful.. "Main kya karun?? Wo kuch kehti bhi to nahi hai.." Padma was in a confusion..

After feeding kids with small stories and milk, Shilpa smiled at the gesture they both were potraying.. Both were sound asleep and looked damn cute, Ahaana was still holding her hand as per her habit and Ayaan's eye were half closed, half open.. "Shhh.." She slowly removed her hand from Ahaana's and pulled Ayaan in her embrace where he hid himself and with a light lovely patt from his mother slowly closed his eyes to full and went into a deep slumber.. "Armaan AC chalayega!!" Shilpa looked up and sighed.. This man hardly feels cold and it was just the start of winters.. She knew he will not listen to her and so she picked both the kids one by one and tucked them in their room's bed under the blanket.. She was still looking at them with love in the dim orange light when she heard the loud ring of her phone... "Sss.." She quickly got up before it would make kids wake up and spoil her night and closing the door behind picked up the call...
"Arjun!!" She frowned gritting her teeth..
"Wrong timing??" Arjun asked raising his eyebrows.. Ofcourse it was 1 and perfectly a wrong time but he just couldn't keep himself away from calling her..His love for her suddenly went up on its peak where he felt so desperate to meet her, have a chat with her.. "Uth jate abhi donow.. dimagh kharab kar dena tha phir mera inhun ne.." She sighed shaking her head and then sat down on the bed.. "Arre yaar maine time he nahi dekha tha!!" Arjun mentally kicked himself after looking at the clock.. "Mujhe bus achanak se tumhari bohat yaad arahi thi.. tabeat kesi hai?" He asked..
"Main theek hun! lekin tumhe kya hua hai? meri yaad arahi thi.. Aise to kabhi yaad nahi ati meri.." She twitched her lips..
"Chor do.. ghanchakkar bana diya hai tumhe sab ne!! time he kahan hota hai tumhare pass.." He was feeling a rage building up inside him.. Things never said before, he just have confronted with Padma and now it was hitting him inside, making him feel for his sister more deeply.. "Hehh.. ajj kal to bed rest pe rakha hua hai sab ne mujhe.. Yeh na karo wo na karo.. khabardaar jo iss kaam mein haath lagaya!!" She smiled sharing a little detail with him..
"Karna bhi chahiye.. tabeat dekho apni!! " He scolded her..
"Acha ab zyaada dada abba banne ki zaroorat nahi hai!! Theek hun main!!" She made a face.. "Ek to yeh pata nahi Armaan kahan reh gaya hai ajj.. itni raat hogayi hai!! Mausam to dekho ajj ka.. thund lag rahi hai mujhe.." She sighed talking generally..
"Hmmm thund ho gayi hai!!" He nodded.. "Wese tumhara mama se kuch jhagra hua hai kya?" Arjun carefully asked.. He had observed this from Padma's questions..
"Hmmm.." She took a deep breath closing her eyes.. "Please mera ek kaam karoge?" She asked looking down at her other hand..
"Kya?" He asked with wrinkles appearing on his forehead..
"Mama ko sorry keh dena meri taraf se please.. Main bohat gusse mein thi pata nahi kya kya keh gayi unse.. Mujh mein unse baat karne ki ya unse sorry kehne ki himmat nahi hai flhaal.. Aur maine unhe sorry nahi kaha to mujhe sukoon bhi nahi ayega.. PLeease.." She pleaded and Arjun felt the heaviness in her voice..
"Aisa kya hua hai? please mujhe batao.." Arjun demanded details..
"Kabhi kabhi mujhe lagne lagta hai k main yeh ghar nahi sambhal sakti Arjun!! Mujhe lagta hai main Armaan k patience ko unnecessary bohat test karti hun!! Bachon ka bhi shayad theek se dheyaan nahi rakh pati.. I am such a careless woman! Aur phir busss uss din Ayaan ki wo bed k neeche so jane wali harkat se mein bohat darr gayi thi!! i was so frustrated! so tensed! maine sab mama pe nikaal diya!! Mujhe unse kuch nahi kehna chahiye tha! mujhe wahan ana he nahi chahiye tha..." She was actually regretting that.. Everything supposed to be inside her only..
"Who the hell told you? you are a careless woman??" Arjun shouted at her.. "Aur tum thuk jati ho.. to di iss baat ko accept karne mein koi burai nahi hai k main thuk gayi hun mujhe araam chahiye! sukoon chahiye!!"
"Arjun... " she closed her eyes.. For sure she can see, she is about to get in an argument with Arjun right now.. "Please.. main bohat thuk gayi hun!! subha uth k jhagra karun??" She asked cutely which made Arjun shook his head..
"Khayal rakho apna!!" He warned..
"I will.. bus please mama ko sorry keh dena sone se pehle agar wo jaag rahi hain to.." She again requested to which he nodded and they hung up.. "uhmmm.." She put the phone down and wiping away her tears got up..
With tired steps, she picked up her night gown and went inside the washroom...

...

Stepping inside the bedroom, he found it all dark with just a usual night lamp shining at a corner, she was no where in sight and so as the kids; the room was found empty. He closed his eyes and inhaled her fragnance which was all over the place and then opening the lights sat down.. He assumed she was in the washroom and kids in their room. Taking a deep breath he started taking off his shoes and socks, he had no idea how he is gona react and what he should say or talk about.. He was hell confused!
He took off his tie and was opening up his shirt buttons when he heard the bathroom door open up which made him turn.. She came out with a towel in her one hand while the other was running in between her long silky hairs which were freely falling till her thighs.. "Oh! Tum agaye!" She smiled lightly as her eyes fell over him.."Ajj kuch zyaada he late ho gaye!!" She complaint while keeping the towel on a side.. "Khana khaya?? lagaoon??" She again asked while bending down at the dresser to get her hand lotion..

Kaise kahun ishq mein tere
Kitna hoon betaab main

"Hmmm" A light smile formed on his lips instead of any answer.. This woman was so amaizing!! Just the view of her made his heart ach to take her in his arms and tell her that he loves her so so much!!
"Armaaan!!" She again called out his name still on receiving no answer.. "Batao naa.. khana khao gay to garam karun.." She asked while applying lotion all over her arms facing her back towards him..
"I LOVE YOU !!!" His voice so close made her look up only to find him standing so close and next moment she was grabbed and captured into a surprising consuming deep kiss.. Her eyes closed down the moment his lips landed on hers, he was holding her face and her own hand found its way towards his head going through his hairs..
She looked at him surprised as he broke the kiss and looked at her while putting the strand of her hairs behind her ear.. "Just the way you are.." He smiled..
She kept looking at him with both confusion and surprise to which he smiled more and pulling her closer to him more whispered.. "Just be mine.. Always!"

Aankhon se aankhe mila ke
Chura loon tere khwaab main

"Tum ro rahi thi??" He asked softly on witnessing the light red cracks in her eyes.. "Nahi.." She looked down immediately and shook her head lighly.. "Ankhon mein pani chala gaya tha.." She made a sweet lie while stretching her lips to form a small smile which soon faded away as she looked up at him.. He still has those questioning eyes on her.. "Maine mama ko kuch keh diya tha!!" She bit her lower lip nervously.. "Mujhe nahi kehna chahiye tha.. aur ab mujh mein sorry kehne ki himmat nahi hai!!" He saw the honesty on her face..
"Sorry kehna itna mushkil kyun hota hai??" Her voice turned hoarse as she asked him with the guilty innocent moist eyes.. "Tum usse kese nafrat kar sakti ho? Tumhari ankhein iss baat ki gawahi nahi deti!!" Words echoed in his mind as he kept looking at her silently..
"Tum thuke hue aye ho.. aur main kya le k beth gayi.." On getting no response but just the stare from him made her realize her mistake.. "Tum kapre badal lo.." She took a step back to get out of his hold.." Main kuch khane ko... shhh!!" He pulled her back keeping his finger on her lips making her quiet.. "Kabhi kabhi bus keh k bhool jana chahiye!!" He caressed her cheek lightly with his hand.. "Cheezon ko itna dill pe mat liya karo.." He cupped her face in his palm again..
"Yeh sorry kehne se zyaada mushkil hai!!" She whispered out looking up at his face.. The fresh tear was still there on her cheek.. "To sab se asaan kya hai??" He asked while removing the trace of that river line..
She kept looking at him silently and he at her with question in his eyes.. "Sab se asaan.." She repeated and traced her palm over his eyes to close them down, a fresh tear made way through her eyes as she closed them "I Love You Too!" She slowly initiated a smooth loving kiss making him inhale her more and resiprocate immediately with the same love and care..
Taking a deep breath, she broke the kiss and stood flat on her feet as to match him she has to get on her toes which were hurting now.. She opened her eyes slowly only to look at him and...

Kaise kahun ishq mein tere
Kitna hoon betaab main

Next moment her back hit the wall as he pushed her turning on the passion between them.. He jammed both her arms upwards with his and looked in her eyes only to find the mirror of his strong building desires and without wasting another second his mouth crushed hers ready to taste every inch of it.. The passion increased, She held the end of the curtain for support as she felt like loosing her balance due to this exertion by him..
Breaking the kiss for some breath, he moved down her neck, kissing her nipping her making her moan out and heave in pleasure.. Arching her neck back providing him a better excess of it, she removed her hands from the curtains and held his hairs, running her fingers through them..

Mere saaye hain saath mein
Yaara jis jagah tum ho

Turning her around, he made her face the wall, tucking all her hairs on one side, he kissed her earlobe seductively making her sizzle, his hands were working simultaneously on pulling her night gown down.. "Armm" Her words remained in her mouth as a little bite on the side of her neck made her head fall back on his shoulder..

Main jo jee raha hoon
Wajah tum ho..
Wajah tum ho..

Her dress slipped down on the carpet while tickling her.. Feeling so openly exposed to his gaze and this cool breeze, she immediately crossed her hands over her chest.. Getting undressed under a sheet was another thing and today right infront another.. Kissing her each backbone disk, he sensously moved his one arm around her bare waist making her bend down over it with the enchanting feeling..
A sudden moan escaped out of her mouth as he turned her around pushing her back against the wall and blocked her with opening her both arms and capturing her face again for a deep passionate kiss.. Her long nails dug down between his hairs and her fingers started running furiously in between.. They took a moment of breath joining their heads feeling breathless and that is whe she pushed him across the side wall and ripped his shirt off just the way he threw her gown away..

Hai ye nasha, ya hai zehar
Iss pyar ko hum kya naam dein

Her back arched up and head fall back on the bed as the dark blue silk sheet slipped away through her stomach creating a havoc inside her.. His fingers ran over getting a perfect hold of it.. Tonight he had let himself free and he can see she was letting it too out.. Fearlessly the dark desires were making their way out not allowing them to show any mercy on eachother..

Kab se adhuri hai ik daastaan
Aaja usey aaj anjaam dein

Her heavy gasps were touching his ears, her nails digging deep inside his back.. His own pattern of breaths were abnormal since she was all active for the first time and returning him the same favours he was giving her.. For a change he was feeling like he is wanted! He is desired! and she was craving for him... She was openly loving him, kissing him, handling him like her very own belonging and this was new!!
This was new, beautiful and beyond any explanation!! She being passionate about him, she being possessive of him, she loving him through actions.. he has never seen this side of her.. If it wasn't happening right now, he probably would have never ever imagined this even in his wildest dream... Tonight, she wasn't any kind of prey, she was the predator!!

Tumhe bhuloon kaise main
Meri pehli khata tum ho

Pulling away the last bit of that annoying silk sheet he threw it away exposing each inch of her to his view... He was now quite expert about clicking her right cords but he never knew she also have quite an idea about his right cords and tonight when she was taking charge time to time showing him, letting him know that he is desired and missed the same way she is and that for sure the fire is on both sides not just one..
Claiming her has always made him feel proud and secure.. "I am never gona be a stranger again.." He whispered out while loosing his senses to her, she herself wasn't in her senses.. They were passing out in eachother's embrace slowly and the heavy eyes shut down finally...

Main jo jee raha hoon
Wajah tum ho..
Wajah tum ho..

With her closed eyes and innocense all over her face, she was sleeping peacefully covered in that blue silk sheet till her chest.. His gaze was fixed at her, he just couldn't sleep!! "Nafrat karne k liye to bohat behiss hona parta hai! Tum itni hassas ho kar usse kese nafrat kar sakti ho? Tum kisi se bhi kese nafrat kar sakti ho??" He questioned trying hard to make a judgement...
"Tum chirr sakti ho!! haan.. tum chirr jati ho! Bohat zyaada chirr jati ho!! Tum roti ho!! kyunki tum bebas hojati ho!! Tum khamosh bhi to ho jati ho.. Haan! tum khamosh hojati ho!! bohat khamosh hojati ho! Aurrr haan tumhe khud ko saza dene ka funn bhi ata hai!! tumhe khud ko chot pohchana bhi ata hai! Lekin kya tumhe doosron ko saza dena ata hai? Kya tumhe apne dil ki baat kehna ata hai? Kya tumhe faasle kum karne atay hain?? Nahi!! Tumhe faasle kum karne nahi atay! Tumhe dill ki baatein kehna nahi ata!! Tum sehna jaanti ho! Jatane ka hunar tumne nahi seekha! Aur jo jatana nahi sakta, wo nafrat bhi nahi kar sakta! wo mohabbat bhi nahi kar sakta! Usse bus ishq hojata hai!! aur ishq ka apna he maza hai!! yeh to imtehaan leyta hai aur saari zindagii leyta he rehta hai!"
"Tumhe pehli baar dekhne pe mujhe tumse mohabbat hogayi thi!! Tumhe paana chahta tha! Lekin tumhe?? haan tumhe shayad ishq hua tha! Tumhe mohabbat nahi hui thi.. Mohabbat to Riddhima ko hui thi... Aur ajj!! Ajj shayad mujhe tumse ishq hogaya hai aur tumhe mujhse mohabbat! Kyunki mein nakaam hogaya hun tumse zara bhi badgumaan hone mein aur tum... tum meri ankhon mein ankhein daal k mujhe apna keh rahi ho!"

Kya jaane tu mere iraade
Le jaunga saansein chura ke

Getting out of her relaxing warm bubble bath, she headed towards the shower closing her eyes and letting the water fall all over her.. With a jerk, her eyes popped wide open on sensing a hand snaking around her waist.. "Lets save some water!" She heard his chuckled and turned to look at him while arching her brow.. "I am already done!" She remarked with a smirk on her face and took a step back..
"Not until i say so.." He grabbed her hand pulling her forward towards him..
"What has gotten into you?" She was amaized with his treatments since last night.. "Hehh.." A light smile appeared on his face as he locked both her hands around his neck.. "You!!" He whispered out getting closer to her face..

Dil keh raha hai gunehgaar ban ja
Bada chain hai inn gunaahon se aage

"Arre haan!! tumhe chupna bhi to ata hai.. tumhe andheron se darr lagta hai! Tum chup jati ho! Tum Riddhima se bhi chup gayi thi.. Tumhe bhaagna ata hai, tum bohat tezz bhaagti ho! Tum Riddhima se bhi to bhaagi thi!! Lekin nafrat to saamne ankhon mein ankhein daal k ki jati hai... Nafrat to andhere ka doosra naam hai! to phir tum nafrat kese kar sakti ho? Tum nafrat kese karogi? Tumhe to nafrat karna ati he nahi!! Tumhe to pata he nahi k nafrat hoti kya hai? kese ki jati hai!! Lekin haan! tumhe sahi jazbaat ko ghalat naam dena ata hai! Tum iss mein mahir ho! Tumhe khud ko dhoka dena ata hai! Tum humesha se shayad yehi karti ayi ho!"

"Kuch baat hai Armaan??" She asked softly snuggling more closer to him under the warm blanket.. "Nahi to.. kyun?" He smiled getting out of his thoughts and taking her hand in his, kissed it lightly..
"Nahi.. there is something!!" She looked so sure.. " i can.." He sealed her with a kiss not allowing her to complete her sentence and turning a bit pushed her down under him.. "Stop Analysing!!" He said passing a mischevious look to her..
"Something has really gotten into you Armaan!!" She really passed a tensed look making him laugh at her.. "Consider it as a punishment for incorprating that stranger in me!!" He mocked at her face.. "Although i doubt if that stranger can enjoy what i enjoyed!!" He added only to get a smack over his shoulder..
"Mazaak banao ab tum mera.." She gritted her teeth at him..
"Depressed women!" He held her both hands trappings her under him..

"Shilpa se iss baare mein baat kese ki jaye??" Dr Armaan Mallik was deep in his thoughts during the whole free time he has got in the hospital.. Its been a week after his and Angad's confrontation.. For a change, Shilpa was very normal and happy whereas he was tensed and disturbed.. To not think about this issue at home was another hard task because Shilpa was turning dangerous.. She some how observes and then questions which disturbes him even more..
"Usske dad k baare mein baat cherun to??" He thought... "Na na na!! Ulta parr gaya to??" He shook his head in horror.."Arghhh Shilpaaa!! Tum itni touchy aur complicated kyun ho?" He cried and then looking at the clock got up for rounds...

...

Atul had showed his wish to extend their family and Anjali was now in deep thoughts... Being a doctor it was ridiculous to even think about it.. The procedure shines in her mind atonce and makes her shiver...
"Le go.. le go.. ca wo wo ooo oo" Ahaana was busy considering herself as Elsa and pointing her hands here and there as if magic will come out of it and everything with froze down.. She recently developed this interest from her mother only, who loves animated barbie and princess stuff and now her daughter too became a fan of it.. She exactly knew in which folder of the Tablet which animated movie lies.. Recently it was FROZEN that became Ahaana's favorite and everytime she troubles Shilpa, she was gievn that Tablet where nothing else runs except for Frozen and that favorite song "Let It Go.."
"Bus naachti raho tum saara waqt aise he.." Anjali looked at Ahaana who was presenting her performance infront of her.. "Naaii main kheli hun!!" Ahaana frowned and again started "Le go.. le go.. ca owoo oo oo ooo.. "
"Khaana kha lo phir khelti rehna!!" Anjali lightly pinched her nose and made her sit on her chair.. "Mumma se khaoongi!!" She pouted..
"Bahe ajaoo!! nahi khane wali tumhari nakhreeli kisi aur se.." Anjali called out for Shilpa loudly... "Mummmaaa aaa" Next they heard Ayaan yelling out forcing his lungs out and then his loud cry... "Lo.. ab wahan kya hua?" Annanya looked around to see.. She was at the lunch table waiting for both her naughter in laws and grand children to sit down..
A moment later, they found Shilpa walking inside the dining room along with Ayaan in her arms.. She was wiping away his tears.. He looked freshly bathed.. "Kaan saaf kar rahi thi lekin ek jagah to araam se beth jaye yeh ladka!!" Shilpa explained the reason for his cry.. "Mumma gandii.." He was sniffing but then hugging her light too..
"Haa mumma gandi!! kya kiya mere ayaan k saath?" Annanya tried to manofy him and take him to give Shilpa a moment to breath in peace but no... Who said gandi means he will leave her and got to anyone when there is hell alot to complain..
"Aca betho yahan araam se.." Shilpa ruffling his hairs made him sit on his seat and then sat down too...
"Shilpa tum mat karo itna kaam!! Abhi pichle hafte he bukhaar se uthi ho!! Thoda halka haath rakho.." Annanya warned her..
"Mom mein in donow ko sambhalne k ilaawa kar he nahi rahi koi kaam.. Inke he kaam itne hote hain.." Shilpa defended herself..
"Asal khauf to mujhe isko dekh k ata hai!!" Anjali mumbled biting her lower lip.. "Kya mujhe isse baat karni chahiye??" She asked herself..

...

"Acha bus.. ab horses chale gaye.. idhar do.." Armaan tried to take away the tablet from Ayaan's hand once again.."Naiii.. abi naiii!!" Ahaana yelled out at once.. "Arghhh Shilpa yeh kya pakh laga di hai tumne donow ko??" Armaan scowled at Shilpa..
It wasn't just Ahaana but Ayaan too who has developed this interest in cartoons and barbie, princess cartoons! Right now a tired Armaan was lazily lying on the bed at Night and beside him Ahaana and Ayaan were sitting down with Tab in Ayaana's hands on which 'Barbie and the Magic of Pegasus' was running..
"Ab kya kiya jaye.. Bachon k baap ko apna hospital ka schedule he dhung se arrange karna nahi ata k unke saath kuch khele!! Main saara waqt to nahi khel sakti naa.." Shilpa was just waiting for a chance since long when he would say something like this and she will lash out at him for this..
"Bachon ki maa complicated hai naa.. Har waqt mere sir pe sawar rehti hai, Isliye time he nahi milta mujhe inke baare mein sochne ka.." He retorted back with the same sweet tone she was using on him..
"Tum meri wajah se inhe time nahi de pa rahe ho?" And.. her voice turned low.. "Nahi please!!!" He immedietly joined his hands together in front of her.. God knows he just felt her heart skip a beat through her voice.. "Khabardaar koi oot patang khayal paala to.." He glared at her.. This woman can scare the hell out of him anytime..
"Shilpaaa!!" With Anjali stepping inside their room turned the atmosphere normal once again.. "Yaar mujhe bhi kuch do baalon mein lagane k liye.. jharr rahe hain mere.." She complaint while showing her hairs..
"Hahahaha..." Armaan burst out laughing.. "Oh Shut up!!" Anjali glared at him.. "Dekho.. Agar tum Shilpa k baalon se impress ho ke help maangne ayi ho to bhool jao!! Tum kabhi wo sab nahi kar sakti jo yeh karti hai.." He chuckled..
"Tumse mashwara nahi maanga ussne.." Shilpa gritted her teeth at Armaan..
"Aur tumhare mashwaron pe amal wo karne se rahi... Sone se pehle baalon mein kum se kum 100 dafa brush karna zaroori hai!!" Armaan once again grinned at the two.. "Arre meri biwi ko to neend he nahi ati isske bagair.." He was now talking to Anjali..
"What??" Anjali's mouth hung up.. "He is joking right??" Anjali looked at Shilpa with an open mouth..
"Bhae meri bachpan ki adat hai mujhe nahi ati iske bagair neend!!" Shilpa raised her shoulders in the air.. "Aur abhi bhi.. khadi yehi to kaam kar rahi hai yeh!! Aur main intezaar kar raha hun k kab inka yeh session over hoga, kab light off hogi aur kab hum soenge.." Armaan sighed making a face..
"Tum.. chup raho!!" Shilpa narrowed her eyes at him..
"Try this out.." Shilpa gave an oil to Anjali..
"Aur har koi meri tarah bhi nahi hota k hafte mein kum se kum teen raatein iski smell bardaasht kare!! Aur yeh bhi bardaasht kare k pati se zyaada time baalon ko diya jaata hai!! Atul kabhi bhi itni bardaasht apne andar peda nahi kar sakta!!" One more comment from Armaan Mallik..
"Aur phir log khud he apne pairon pe khulhari maarte hain!!" Anjali started laughing as he made Shilpa officially pissed off.. "Have a Peaceful Night!!" She wished Armaan waving her hand and left..
"Khud ki time management dhung ki hai nahi.. Aur mujhe lecture dene ka bada shawk hai tumhe.." Shilpa taunted him and again turned towards the mirror to make a simple loose plate of her hairs..
"Ahmm.." He shook his head and turned on his side while closing his eyes.. "Tum ajao dobara meri time management set karne.." He arched his brow.. "Mujhe koi shawk nahi hai.." Shilpa made a face.. "Riddhima ki wajah se karni parr gayi otherwise and me and at your reception?? Never!!" She rolled her eyes..
"Oho!!" He rolled his tongue inside.. Sometimes you just spend your life and few basic and important things never show up until they are needed.. When Riddhima went to Armaan for job, he told her that her qualifications are higer than needed and she told him that this job is the only thing she can manage between studies, Office work would not be her cup of tea at the moment and he agreed!! He has his own interest aswell, he wanted to know her, he was kind of in love at first sight with her; Atleast that is what he thought..
That was the only day he has discussed about Riddhima's academics with her.. He also knew that she was doing this sociology something with Atul that is it! When Shilpa replaced Riddhima on reception, she was just Shilpa!! Her academics, her interests! Armaan Mallik has no interests in knowing all this.. Later he knew that she went to NewYork for a coarse that was it! He was happy for her departure since he really wanted his wife to concentrate on him rather than her sister. Then mess, mess and more mess.. His whole life turned upside down and there was no space where he would sit and think and look into Shilpa's academics and her dreams..
"Wese ek conference araha hai agle maheene, Holiday plan karne ka soch raha hun.." He told her in his sleepy voice.. "Infact kal chalna, Bachon k passports k liye maange gay to stupid DNA reports aur pata nahi kya kya.."
"DNA reports??" Shilpa arched her eyebrows..
"Arre tung karne k naye naye tareeqe.." He shook his head.. "Aur chalo bahe tum donow.. hogaya bus bohat! chalo so jao.." Armaan pulled Ahaana to make her lie down.. "Lao bund karo issko.." He then took away the tablet from Ayaan and since it was their time to sleep so no more tantrums, they easily lied down and waited till Shilpa came provided with their milk bottles..

Done with bringing the water bottle inside the room, Shilpa closed the door behind and then turned towards the bed where Armaan, Ahaana and Ayaan were practically scattered here and there.. "Uhmmm.." Shaking her head, she took the milk bottles away, some how covered them with the blanket and set then straight and then lied down beside Armaan.. "Zyaada thuk gaye??" She slowly asked on noticing that frowing line on his forehead.. "Hmmm.." He made a sound feeling so sleepy and tired.. "Hehh.. so jao!!" She smiled kissing his cheek lightly and making small circles through his hairs.. "Good Night!!" She wished and removing her fingers tried to settle down and lie flat.."Ahum.." He held her hand.. "Karti raho.. acha lag raha hai.." He requested with his close eyes to which she smiled and resting her head on her one arm, started ruffling his hairs lightly from her other hand..
There were few moments, when he too finds calmness and peacefulness beside her.. She knew she makes him worry, tests his patience and gives him heartbreaks but then there are these moments too which gives her chance to make up for the lost time.. He would just sleep and dream free from all tensions and stress and she will silently watch him, admire him and fall in love with him..
Slowly and gradually his breathing pattern was changing letting her know that she is now deep in sleep.. "I know tum kisi baat ko le kar pareshaan ho, thode kaam k stress mein bhi ho.. par main kya karun? Mujhe tumhara waqt chahiye Armaan!!" She whispered out light caressing his hairs.. "Mujhe wo ek sukoon ki zindagii chahiye jahan mein purani har kharab yaad aur baat ko bhula kar sirf tumhe yaad rakh sakun.. Tumhare saath khush reh sakun.." She wished in a light whisper and then laid down closing her eyes to finally catch some sleep..

Shocked out of his wits, he found out a new thing about his wife, she not just know basic sewing but she know it all in and out.. She used to sew all her dresses by herself before and now she wants a sewing machine to start it again.. Well, not a big deal! She has not just surprised him but shocked him many times..
As per an Old Armaan Mallik.. Riddhima was the sweet and sensible daughter of Padma and Shilpa was a bit outgoing and stubborn and not a house wives type girl.. It wasn't actually his fault, Shilpa and his relationship has always been rash and tight.. They both never wanted to know anything about eachother..
Now when things changed, he saw Shilpa in a different light.. She was an all rounder, she not just took care of his children but his mother, his home and now him.. Yes, she has her own issues and problems and yes she was stubborn but she was also a perfect marriage material.. Life changed her or she was always like this? That was still a question.. From kitchen chores to fixing of things, loving his children and now this girly side of her which was actually hard to find in today's generation of girls..
On the other hand, Riddhima was the house wife but not kind of a typical lady types who would sew their own dresses up and would be hesitant to put forward their demands and needs.. Riddhima was kind of a sorted girl who knew what she wanted and when she wanted.. On Shilpa, he himself had worked hard alot to bring that ease where she would put forward a need or desire or discuss anything with him freely.. He feels he has succeeded 50% but not 100. Indeed Shilpa Mallik was a hard nut to crack.
"Nahi yeh wala nahi.. wo dikahen!!" Pointing over a lace, she asked the shopkeeper and he kept looking at her.. "Tum kiski shopping kar rahi ho?? meri samajh se bahar hai.." He asked.. Today, she was practically dragging him all over the market and bargaining so hard that in the last shop, he went out of the door feeling so embarrassed..
"Ahaana ki.. Badi ho rahi hai, uske kapre chote ho jate hain jaldi.." She replied him carelessly and ones again continued to her choose.. "Yeh white wala kesa lagay gaa??" she asked him.. "Abhi pichle sunday hum Ayaan k liye sir khapa rahe thai.. Ajj Ahana k liye khapa rahe hain.. tumne nahi leyna hai kuch??" He frowned and asked..
"Tumhe apni shopping karni thi, so maine lagay haath Ayaan ki karli.." She corrected him.. "Aur maine machine li naa.." She now replied to his question...
"Machine??" He rolled his eyes.. Like any other day, she was just dragging him and making him pay for the kid's stuff.. "Machine is another thing.. Tumhe apne liye kuch nahi leyna?" He again asked.. She still dosen't demand anything for her from him.. Forget Demand, she even dosen't spent anything on her other than her basic needs when she shops alone without him..
"Nahi.." She shook her head in a no looking down at a small hoodie for Ayaan..

...

He was driving back with an off and pissed off mood whereas she was busy calculating mentally where she has spent how much and for what... "Humne night suits kitne tak k liye thai??" She asked him to which she got no reply..
"Armaan??" She nudged on his shoulder lightly..
"Hmmm.. yaad nahi mujhe.." He replied looking straight at the road.. "Kya hua??.. tabeat theek hai tumhari??" Sensing his tone, Shilpa kept her palm on his cheek to check.. "Tch.. theek hun!!" He pulled away his face and continued to look straight..
"Phir chirr kyun rahe ho?" She asked innocently..
"Chirr nahi raha hun.. soch raha hun kuch.." He lied.. he was completely pissed off..
"Kya?" She passed a confused look to him..
"Yehi ke tumhe khud mein koi interest nahi hai ya phir mujhse abhi bhi koi problem hai.." Words just couldn't stayed inside him and came out... Dumbfonded she looked at him and kept looking.. "Bachon ka yeh leyna hai, tumhara yeh ana hai ya kuch nahi to ghar ka he kuch nikaalo tum.. Lekin khud k oppar ek nigah nahi daalna tum!!!" He taunted..
"Maine kuch isliye nahi liya kyunki mujhe abhi zaroorat nahi hai.. faaltu mein paise phenkne ka faida?" He somewhere had hit the wrong cord turning her angry..
"Shilpa! mujhse faaltu ki bakwaas nahi karna.." He glared at her..
"Yeh faaltu ki bakwaas nahi hai!! Main shuru se aisi he hoon... " She acted stubborn..
"To phir change karo apne app ko.. " He scolded her and stopped the car.. They were back at home..

...

Running his fingers through Ayaan's hairs, he was busy in reading a book.. Kids were fast asleep and Shilpa was busy in setting things right inside the cupboard. Fine, they had a small fight in the morning but that doesn't mean they have stop talking to eachother and continue to fight over everything..
"So jao ab... subha kar leyna!!" He said while putting his book away..
"Bus hogaya!" She replied and closed the door.. "Ayaan ko check karo bukhar to nahi hai? abhi thodi deir pehle mujhe thoda garam lag raha tha.." She said walking up to the switch board.. Closing the main tube light, she switched on the night bulb and then walked upto her side of the bed..
A light smile appeared on her face when she laid down flat on the bed, He was busy caressing and kissing his little angel.. "Nahi bukhar nahi hai!" He replied when she herself kept her palm on his head to check..
"Hmmm.." She led out a breath and pulled up the blanket upto her chest..
"Ab dekho passports ka kya hota hai.. Kal DNA report collect kar k summit karun, i hope conference se pehle pehle he sab ho jaye.." He bit his lower lip..
"Aur nahi hua to?" She asked..
"To phir hum Boston nahi kahin aur chalenge.." He revealed his plan.. "Lekin Holiday zaroori hai!! Wo leyna he padega.." He shot a meaning ful look to her..
"Hmmm.." She nodded in a yes..
"Pata hai? Bachpan mein papa chota ya bada jesa bhi ho lekin garmiyun ki chuttiyun mein holiday zaroor plan karte thai.. Phir chahe wo do din ka he kyun na ho!! Holiday... Holiday hota tha!!" He smiled remembering his days..
"Hehh.. yaani kaafi ghume ghumaye hue ho.." She giggled at him..
"Haan!! Physically unhe he bachpan mein ghoom ghumaya!! Aur tum ab mentally ghuma rahi ho.." He added a taunt..
"Huh.. pata nhi tumhe ghuma rahi hun k khud ghoom rahi hoon... " She sighed going into a deep thought...
"Tumhara relationship kesa tha tumhare dad k saath??" He finally hit the cord.. "Tum kabhi baat nahi karti unke baare mein.. Unke naam aur kaam k ilaawa unke baare mein kuch nahi jaanta main" He tried to be as much innocent as possible..
"Kyun?? Riddhima ne kabhi zikar nahi kiya?" She asked rolling her eyes..
"Riddhima ko tumhare ilaawa kisi ka bhi zikar karne mein kooiii interest nahi tha.." He quipped..
silence..
"Arjun aur Riddhima bohat close thai unse.. mujhe zyaada time nahi milta tha!" She spoke out coldly.. "Mujhe parhna hota tha.." Again her habit of covering one thing with another..
"Iss tarah kyun baat kar rahi ho?" Her coldness was so visible that it made things easy for him to question.. "Dad thai wo tumhare... koi uncle nahi thai!!"
"Haan! wo mere dad thai aur main unki responsibility thi.." She turned bitter.. "Allergic! Complicated child!! Oppar se careless itni thi k har kaam jo ghalat hota tha uski wajah main he hoti thi!!" He can see the fire growing through her voice.. "I am sure wo ajj zinda hote to meri shakal bhi nahi dekhna chahte!! Riddhima k bachon ko haath lagana to door, mujhe uski maut ki wajah jaan kar meri shakal dobara na dekhna ka farmaan jaari kar chuke hote..."
"Shilpa!!" Armaan shouted.. "Kya bakwaas kar rahi ho tum??" He scolded her.. Yes he heard from Angad about this cold war but he could have never believed how dangerous it is if it wasn't happening now..
"Armaan!! Mujhse iss topic pe dobara kabhi baat mat karna!!" She didn't cared about his tone and warned him a dangerous voice..
Silence..

"Tum itna negative kyun sochti ho?" He asked softly...
"Mujhe ghutan ho rahi hai.. main bahar ja rahi hun!!" He heard her stern voice and then saw her getting up in a hurry and taking long quick steps walking towards the lawn door.. "Shilpaaa.. yaar!!" He tried to stop her but that went in vein..

...

Feeling a warm shawl coming over her shoulders in this cold windy night, she closed her eyes and herself started speaking.. "Uss din jo tumhari aur Riddhima ki tasveer girr k tooti thi.. Wo aise he nahi girri thi!! Maine gusse mein khud utha k phenki thi.." She kept her truth forward..
"Aur phir jab maine utha k andar rakh di to tumhi phirse ja kar usse banwa layi aur wapas usse ussi jagah par laga diya.." He sat down next to her.. "Kyun?" He questioned..
"Kyunki ab jab mujhe gussa ta hai to mera khud par se kaboo hatt jata hai!! Mujhe pata nahi kya hota ja raha hai.. Mujhe pehle kabhi itna gussa nahi ata tha!!" She shook her head in a regret..
silence..
"Kabhi kabhi mera dill karta hai main kahin bohat door bhaag jaaoon.. Jahan na main kisi ko jaanti hun na koi mujhe!! Koi ilzaam nahi!! Koi shikayat nahi!!" She closed her eyes and looked down..
silence..
"Tumhe darr kis baat ka hai?" He asked softly..
"Tumhe mujh par gussa nahi aya yeh jaan kar k maine wo tasveer utha k phenki thi?" She cut him out and asked..
"Wapas utha k bhi tumhi ne rakhi thi.. dard bhi tumhi ne jhela tha.." He took her hand in his and traced the almost healed mark of the wound.. Letting the tear flow down her cheek, she rested her head on his chest and circles her arms around his neck.. "I am sorry Armaan!!" She cried..
"Tumhara kya karun Shilpa muje samajh nahi ata.." He said encircling his arm around her.. "Tum baatein dill se nikalo gii nahi to hum donow ki zindagii azaab bani rahe gii.. Tum ek baar bina darre kisi bhi anjaam ki fikar kiye bagair sab keh kyun nahi deti??" He became a bit desperate..
"Tum batao mujhe... Aisa kya hai jo baar baar wapas ajata hai?? kyun ajata hai Shilpa??" He questioned out in a soft yet convincing voice..
silence..
"Mujhe kuch bataogi nahi to mujhe kese pata chalega? Ajj sirf apne papa k naam pe tum itna bharak gayi!! Main kahan kahan kya kya dhoondun yaar?? Kabhi to tum apni ghuttan se nikal k bahar ao.. Kabhi to mujhe meri bhi sunane ka mauqa do.." He kept his word forward..
The same silence continued to remain but her tight grip around him assured him that she will now atleast work over it.. They kept sitting for a while and then went back and retired to bed..

Working over some calculations, Atul was completely engrossed in his work.. "Coffee thundii hogayi Atul!!" Anjali glared at him as she passed by the dining hall..
"Garam kardo.." He replied carelessly still looking into his laptop screen..
"Dobara thundi karne k liye??" She taunted..
"Tchhh.. yaar dimagh nahi khao!! Bohat mushkil mein phasa hua hun main iss waqt!!" He stated irritatedly and continued working..
"Arghh.." Gritting her teeth, Anjali stepped forward to grab the mug and then go and warm it again..

"Coffee bana rahi ho??? " Armaan chirped on sneaking inside the kitchen..
"Tumhe kya hua hai??" Anjali shot a weird look to him at the way he is sneaking..
"Arre mujhse hospital se wapsi pe yeh samaan mangwaya tha main bhool gaya tha!! Wohi dekh raha tha.. kahin madona aas pass to nahi hai!!" He made a face keeping the paper bag on the shelf..
"Nahi ab usska plan cancel ho gaya hai!! Mujhe khana banana hai ab.." Anjali pouted..
"Aurrr tum kya banane wali ho?" He arched his brow..
"Pehle yeh coffee to garam ho jaye.." She gritted her teeth.. "Ghar pe office utha k le aya hai aur ab main jese peon hun jo pani la ke do!! coffee la k do!!" She made a face.. "Yeh nahi k kum se kum paani to khud se uth k le lein.."
"Hahaha.. acha tum apna kaam karo.. lao yeh coffee mujhe do, main de deta hun usse..!" Armaan offered help and taking the mug walked outside towards the dining table..
"Kya ho raha hai bhae??" Armaan questioned lightly patting into Atul's back..
"Salsa!! karoge?" Atul spoke out sarcastically..
"Ufff.. sahi keh rahi thi Anjali!! Ajj dimagh satka hua hai tumhara!!" Armaan shook his head..
"Mere pass market price nahi hai aur valuation karni hai!! kya karun main??" Atul arched his brows..
"Pooch lo kisi se.." Armaan chuckled..
"Market mein price he nahi ayi hai... to kya pooch lo kisi se??" Atul frowned..
"Koi faaida nahi hai.. maine bola tha naa aj satka hua hai dimagh!!" Anjali commented with a wiggling Ahaana in her arms and gave her to Armaan.. "Issko sambhalo.. baar baar kitchen mein ghuss rahi hai kaam nahi karne de rahi mujhe.." Anjali complaint..
"Ahaaanaa!!" Shilpa's voice boomed in the air.. "Naii.." Ahaana jumped out of Armaan's lap and hide herself under the table.. "Hehhh.." The three held their laughs..
"Ahaana ko dekha hai?" Shilpa came and asked..
"Naiii.." The voice boomed in the hall making Shilpa frown and other laugh.. "Bahar niklo forun abhi.. " She ordered Ahaana in a stern voice.. "Main naii aondi!!" Ahaana peeped a bit to see where Shilpa is standing..
"Kese nahi aogi.. tumhare ache bhi aenge!!" Shilpa bend out to get her..
"Mumma naiii!!" Ahaana tried to run away but Shilpa caught her.. "Aur phiro nange pair.. Ab cheenke arahi hai to dawa peeni padegi!!" She lightly hit her on her back and held her hand to drag her out..
"To wo.. tooot gayi thi!!" Ahaana narrowed her eyes at Shilpa..
"To wo.. kissne torri thi??" She asked in the same tone Ahaana was using..
"Hhh mumaaa hh" Ahaana cried using her special tone to manofy her mother..
"Bhae mujhe bhi koi dawa de do!!! Mere bhi sir mein ab dard shuru hogaya hai!!" Atul made a face.. "Tumhare sir pe danda parna chahiye.. tumhe dawa ki zaroorat nahi hai!!" Armaan shook his head..
"Haan!! Aur ab yeh coffee thundi hui to main garam nahi karungi.." Anjali warned..
"Kyun ji? tum kansi mushkil mein ho?" Shilpa inquired..
"Marios ko value karna hai lekin market price nahi hai uski mere pass.. Market main kal ayegi aur tab tak mera baja bajj jayega!" Atul huffed.. "Aurr yeh do ghar mein doctors bethe hain!!!" He frowned at Anjali and Armaan..
"To comptetor ki le k adjust karlo.. wese bhi Marios 20 se oppar jata nahi!!" She just like that suggested and Atul jumped up.. "Simple!! Aur yeh mere dimagh mein kyun nahi aya??" He scolded himself..
"Issliye kyunki ajj tum dimagh saath le k nahi bethe naa.." Anjali commented sarcastically.. he was troubling her since hours.. "Ussko to Ahaana ne fresh rakha hua hai.." Armaan just in fun added...
"Pleaseee..." Atul rolled his eyes... "Wo scholarship pe.." He was about to say in support of Shilpa when his phone rang and he took it..
"Tum ao idhar.." Shilpa took Ahaana away and Armaan and Anjali just like that started discussing.. "Maine mujhe mili thi class 8th mein scholarship.." Anjali stated..
"Ahan!! Mera to kabhi dhyaan bhi nahi gaya scholarship pe.." He laughed..
"Scholarship har kisi k buss ki baat bhi nahi hoti!!" Atul, who was done with his call added.. "Naiii" Ahaana once again came running and this time hide herself behind Anjali..
"Ahaana dekho zidd nahi karo.." Shilpa came after her..
"Zahir hai scholarship har kisi k buss ki baat nahi hoti.. U need to extra ordinary for that!!" Armaan comment..
"Idhar.." Shilpa with the help of Anjali was finally done with feeding Ahaana syrup who now ran away immediately with the fear that she will be fed another spoon..
"Zahir hai.. hazaron k beech compete karna is not an easy task!!" Anjali added..
"Its not about competetion!! Its about your goal and desperation!!" Shilpa added few words while closing the cap of the bottle.. "Neeyat honi chahiye!!"
"Kehne mein simple hai!!" Armaan argued..
"O hello!!" Atul interupted... "Tum pehle dekho tum argue kisse kar rahe ho? Ussne apni poori education scholarship pe hasil ki hai!!" He revealed.. "Wo jo NewYork coarse k liye gayi thi wo bhi scholarship pe tha!!" He added but Shilpa was out of the room..
Silence..
"r u serious??" Armaan and Anjali both were in a shock.. "Aur tum logon ne beshak khabar na rakhi ho.. but shaadi naam se bhaagne pe bhi jo job kar rahi thi.. 1 lakh uski sirf starting salary thi!!" He revealed more proving some more shocks to them and once again picked up his phone which started ringing..

...

"Shoot!!" Atul was done with his work and now his scholarship discussion lighed up some burried issue to him... Be it Armaan, Anjali or Him.. They studied like everyone else do and are doing really good in their careers.. And that girl who was the shining star of her every subject and class, who was passionate about her work and career.. Who worked so hard and even maintained her scholarship thing throughout has got what??
Flashes passed by his side where she was so clear about her goals and aim in life.. And today she is the one having nothing in her hands.. Career disappeared somewhere.. All she got was to take care of a house, children and that is it..
He had witnessed her hardwork and passion and hat started pinching him now.. Things stsrted adding up and so as the day when he blamed her for Ahaana's condition just to make her agree for this marriage... He was feeling so so sorry that his heart turned heavy!!

...

Very slowly and silently, Shilpa bend over Armaan to check if he was sleep or still awake.. He has to leave early morning next day and so it was obvious for him to retire to bed by now but shilpa had seen that look on his face..
Most scary part was that he didn't questioned her a single time.. He was unusually quiet and Shilpa can see several colors running over his face.. He looked disturbed and in some kind of a thought..
She let it go but now she was unable to sleep with this and that is why she was up to see if he is awake or not.. "Yeh kya kiya tumne Atul??" She shook her head and got up to get some water..
Finding the bottle empty, she went out of the room only to find the kitchen lights on and Atul inside in search of something... "Kya dhoond rahe ho?" Shilpa asked..
"Green tea!! Mujhe neend nahi arahi.." He stated..
"Yeh rahi.." Opening another cabinet, Shilpa it out.. "Tumhe wo sab nai kehna chahiye tha!!" Shilpa spoke out after a while..
"Kya nahi kehna chahiye tha?" He asked keeping the tea mug on the table and taking a chair to sit..
"Scholarships tak theek tha.. job, salary, aim, goals!! kya zaroorat thi yeh sab kehne ki??" She asked in a complaining tone.. "Kya kum complicated hai meri life? jo tum aur ek complication le ao.." She sat down taking a chair opposite to him..
"Hmmm.." Taking a deep breath, Atul rested his back at the seatpost.. "Wo sab kehne k baad... mujhe kuch purana waqt yaad agaya!!" He started.. "Mujhe yaad aya k tum meri dost thi!! Aur mujhe yeh bhi yaad aya k iss ghar mein sab se zyaada meri tumhari taraf responsibility banti thi!! Aur maine wo responsibility nahi li!! Tumhe akela chor diya.." He confessed..
"Atul.." Shilpa was really in no mood to listen this but he stopped her by showing his hand.. "I remembered k tum kya thi!! Aur ab tum kya ho!! And i also remembered what i did to you...And it was wrong!!" He bit his lower lip..
"Mujhe ya kisi ko bhi haq nahi tha tumhe kisi bhi cheez k liye blame karne ka.. Tumse shaadi k liye haan kehalwane k liye uss waqt jo mere dil mein aya maine keh diya!! WO Ghalat tha!! Tum Ahaana ki uss halat ki zimmedaar nahi thi!!" He spoke out and Shilpa just closed her eyes.. He reminded her of something which was very hurtful in the past..
"Hum sab se zyaada tum focused aur clear thi k tumhe kya chahiye.. Tumne mehnat ki thi!! apna chain sukoon barbaad kiya tha aur ajj tumhare haath mein wo career nahi hai! Tum ghar pe beth k kisi aur ki choices ki keemat chuka rahi ho aur baaki sab apne kaamon mein lagay pade hain!! I Am Sorry!!" He apologized..
"I really am sorry!! Main tumhe bata nahi sakta how guilty i am!!" His eyes moisten up a bit..
silence..
"Atul!!" Shilpa sighed.. "Jis ladki ki tum baat kar rahe ho usko main nahi jaanti.. i lost all my connections with her way back!!" She almost whispered out.. "career, passion of work!! Yeh sab jese... jese Angad apne saath le gaya tha meri life se!!" She pressed her lips together..
"Mere liye darawna ab yeh ehsaas hai k Armaan mujhpe taras khae!! Ussko aisa lagne lagay jese unse mere haath bandh diye hain!!" Water filled her eyes.. pause "Pata hai?? kisi ko ilzaam dena bohat asaan hota hai!! Isska koi andaza he nahi hota humay k jisse ilzaam diya hai uske andar... uske andar kya torr phorr kardi hai humne.."
"Yeh sach hai k main Armaan se kabhi shaadi k liye haan nahi kehti aur uss din tum mujhse wo sab na kehte.. Riddhima ki maut ne mujhe hila diya tha!! Aur phir Angad ne chora to toot gayi!! Aur ab jo main hun... " She took a deep breath.. "Wo Armaan ki hun!! Ussko bagair adhoori hun, uske bagair jeene ka soch bhi nahi sakti... usko kho dene ka darr hai mere andar!!" A tear escaped her eyes..
"Aur mujhe nahi pata main kya thi ya kya chahti thi.. Lekin ab main wo nahi hun! Aur mujhe tum mat yaad dilao wo ladki.. Kyunki wo sirf tabahi le kar ayegi!! Meri zindagii ab Armaan aur bache hain!! Aur agar yeh mujhse door hogaye naa.. That will be my End!" She whispered out..
"Main sirf sorry kehna chahta tha thats it!!" Atul tried to clear his side.. "Tumhe aaj ya kal hurt karne ka mera kabhi koi intention nahi tha!! Uss waqt halaat ghalat thai aurr hum sab he uske hisaab se react kar rahe thai.." He pressed his lips together..
"To phir ek baat seekh lo.." She looked in his eyes.. "Halaat jese bhi hon, kabhi kisi ko ilzaam mat dena! Kyunki ek baar dill se izzat chali jaye.. to mohabbat bhi chali jati hai! aur wo wapas nahi ati.." She stated in a determined tone.. "Log chale jaate hain aur dill ki baat dill mein he reh jati hai!!" A tear escaped her eyes..
pause..
"Riddhima kuch kehna chahti thi maine kehne nahi diya!! Maine na uski sunni ya khud ki usko suna payi!! Aur ab zindagii mujhe usska mauqa nahi degi... That is my biggest regret!" She wiped away her tear.. This old friend somewhere bringing her some peace..
"Tumhare dill mein kya hai?" He asked.. "Tum ek samjhota jee rahi ho ya..."
"Ussne mujhe kabhi kisi k saamne nahi jhukaya!! Jo bhi hua mere aur uske beech he tha!! Agar mujhe uss par bharosa nahi hota ya mere dill mein uske liye izzat nahi hoti.. To mujhe yahan rokne wala kuch nahi tha!" She stated a fact.. "Main uski zindagii mein zaroor bachon ki wajah se, unke liye ayi thi lekin usske meri zindagii mein ane ki wajah bache nahi thai!!" She looked straight at Atul..
"Riddhima??" Atul's heart sank.. It shouldn't be Riddhima because of which Shilpa accepted Armaan because if it was the case then he can see a big storm coming after sometime..
"Riddhima aur bache sirf shaadi liye haan kehne ki wajah thai!! Aur wo rishta kesa tha yeh tum dekh chuke ho!!" She looked away.. "Wo.. wo ek samjhota tha!!" She spoke out truthfully..
"Aur yeh jo Shilpa Armaan ki life mein hai.. Jisse wo chahta hai!.." Pause.. "Iske koi ambitions nahi thai Atul.. Isske koi shawk nahi hain ya na aisi khwahishein nahi hai jo iss ghar se ya Armaan se ya bachon se hatt kar hain!!" She tried to explain herself..
"Mujhe life ne change kiya hai ab main chahun tab bhi pehle jesi nahi ho sakti!! Isliye please.. " She held her hands together infront of Atul.. "Meherbani kar k mujhpe taras khana ya mere liye sorry feel karna bund kardo.." She made her point clear..
"Hmmm.." Taking a deep breath, Armaan returned to his room.. He woke up to use washroom and not not finding her on the bed, he walked out to just check and overheard everything..
For Shilpa, Atul was the only card from her past who could mess up thing unknowingly if realisation start to hit him.. Today, it did and before more damage will occur, she needed to clear herself in front of him..

"Tie.." Shilpa stopped right on her spot as she found him already done with it.. "Umm.." She looked here and there to compose herself and then said.. "Naaste k saath juice loge ya chai?" She was trying hard to make a conversation and he was doing 'hmmm haan' only.. He was quiet and carrying some blank expressions from the time he got up... Infact he was up at 5 all by himself and was half ready when she woke up..
"Naashte ka mood nahi hai mera.. bhoo lage gi to wohin pe kuch kha loonga!" He replied in a low, straight tone while fixing his collar.. "Hmmm.." She pressed her lips together feeling like crying over his ignorant and silent behaviour.. He looked upset.
"Armaan!! abhi 5:30 he hue hain.. Itni jaldi bhi jaane ka.." She tried once again..
"Mujhe kaam hai kuch.." Again a straight reply from him..
silence..
He was buttoning up his sleeves and Shilpa just looking at him with a lost breath and heavy heart.. When he ignores, it affects!! Deeply!!
"Ahh coat!!" She quickly took his coat and tried to help him wear before he would do that himself.. "Aj chutti nahi le sakte?" She asked hugging him from the back after he was done wearing his coat.. "Kaam hai mujhe.. aur chutti le k kya karunga? It would be useless.." He talked to her looking at her mirror image..
"Tum naraz ho mujhse? Tumhe koi baat buri lagi hai?" She couldn't take more and so asked in a heavy voice.. "Nahi to.. naraz kis baat pe hona hai? Infact i should be thankful for everything!" He said while removing her hands from his shoulder and turned around.. "Aisa kyun keh rahe ho?" She looked in his eyes..
"Kyunki i just realised k kitni zyaadti hui hai tumhare saath.." He spoke out with a bit bitterness in his voice.. "I am so guilty!!" He shook his head and she covered his mouth with her palm.
"Aisa nahi hai.." She whispered out with her eyes going moist.. "Jo tum soch rahe ho wo sab meri zindagii se bohat pehle he chala gaya tha!!?" She was so worried that her voice turned shivery.. "Tum uski wajah nahi thai.. Please aise behave mat karo.." She pleaded..
"Kyun?? Tum to aise he behave karti ho!! Main kyun aise behave na karun??" He questioned out removing her hand from his mouth.. "Har ghalti ki wajah tumhare hisaab se tumhi hoti ho!" He looked in her eyes.. "Ghuttan sirf tumhe hoti hai kya? Mujhe nahi ho sakti??" He questioned out..
"Tum chup ho sakti ho! meri kisi bhi baat ka ulta matlab nikaal sakti ho! Khud ko bojh samajh kar jab chaho mera dill torr sakti ho!! To main yeh sab kyun nahi kar sakta?" His eyes turned pink with heat he was feeling inside.. "Yeh jo khali pan tum apne andar mehsoos kar rahi ho!! Kabhi socha hai mujhe kesa lagta hai jab tum yeh sab karti ho?" He left her shoulder and then closing his eyes took a moment to ctach some control..
"Mujhe deir ho rahi hai.. main chalta hun!!" He looked away and took a step forward leaving her stunned and shaky.. She really needed him at the moment..

Main gumshuda si raat hoon
Meri khushnuma subah tum ho

She held his arm by both her hands making him stop.. "Please mat jao.." She pleaded while shedding tears.. "Please..."
Closing his eyes, he exhaled a cold breath and then asked.. "Acha mujhe yeh he bata do k mujhe kya bura lag gaya?.. Main kum se kum yehi jaan jaoon k tum mujhe kitna samahjti ho.." He himself had no idea why he was feeling so low and so hurt and so empty inside.. All he know is that even the thought of slottering her wings to fly was terrifying him and what he heard last night did provided him answers but not helping him adjust with the feeling..
"Hhh...hh" She hugged him tight from the back and practically started crying..
"Hehh.." He led out a sad sarcastic laugh and held her hand which was placed on his chest from the back.. "Itni bhi himmat nahi hai k keh sako?"
"Kuch to keh do.." He turned around and looked in her eyes cupping her face in his palms..
"Ruk jao.." She demanded this time instead of pleading in a hoarse voice and wrapping her arms around him hide herself in his chest. He closed his eyes feeling that emptiness inside him fading away.. It was her grip around him doing some magic.. He wrapped his arms around her pulling her more closer to her.. He just can't leave now..

Main jo jee raha hoon
Wajah tum ho..

Central Idea: Life is unexpected.. Ones aims, goals, priorities and way of living changes accordingly. Situations brings out best and worst of us and sometimes we just act accordingly and say or do things we never meant.. Once can apologize later, try and fix things up but what cannot be fixed is a Human Being and feelings. What one went through becomes a part of them and change them forever...

Finally update aaya aur wo bhi itna lamba wohooo!!!!!
Arsh hot romance was cherry on the cake
Chalo finally padma ko kuch samajh aa jaye shilpa ke bare me...
Sab log ek hi sath guilty feel karne lage aur shilpa ke paas sorry ka bhandar aa gaya...
The cutest scene was of ayaan---"Haa mumma gandi!! kya kiya mere ayaan k saath?" Annanya tried to manofy him and take him to give Shilpa a moment to breath in peace but no... Who said gandi means he will leave her and got to anyone when there is hell alot to complain.."
ab armaan bechara low feel karne laga but shilpa ke tight hug ne thoda magic kiya!!!!!

Wow...another mind blowing update...!!!! 👏👏

It was all about Shilpa...how the whole situation affected her...how she changed with the time...her priorities changed with the circumstances...

the guilt Arjun & Atul felt...for her...they realized what good but not right thing they did with Shilpa...but again...that Shilpa is not existed now...the ambitious Shilpa was gone & now her everything is just revolved around her home...Armaan & her Children...

Armaan...he was trying to freed her from her Ghuttan...but the thought...of slottering her wings to fly...that make him disturbed...that last part was so touching when she pleaded him to stop...& her hug...made the emptiness inside him fade away...

Ahaana & Ayaan was so cute as always...enjoyed their antics...

ArSh moments with the song Wajah tum ho...that was lovely...

As always superb update...Loved every bit of it...!!!!

Continue soon...😊

Every time. Every single time u amaze me with the depth of your characters..

It's like you are inside of all the characters..

U get everyone's perspective very clearly.

Be it Armaan, Shilpa, Padma, Arjun and even Atul now..

It's just Spot on..

You could be a psychiatrist for all the analysis u r doing for this story..

This story is like a Life Lesson..

Shilpa's conversation with Atul at the end was simply superb.. I understand it very well..

Awesome work as always Sam.. Well done..

Looking forward to know about more dynamics of Shilpa..
