PART - 28
Next Morning
Madhu woke up with a hangover
Madhu: Ouch!! my head (She said while pressing her forehead)
RK: Here have this
Madhu was having a blurred vision but then soon she gained her conciousness and saw RK sitting in front of her with a glass of water and medicine.
Madhu: Why?...I mean what is this?
RK: Medicine.
Madhu: What Medicine.
RK: Well this will help you come out of your hangover.
Madhu: Oh..Okay (She took the medicine...after few seconds she realised that RK said Hangover and she gave him a horrifying look) What Hangover...How...I mean how can I get a hangover...I did not drink...I never do that...then how.???
Before she could throw more questions on him he stopped her in midway and said
RK: Relax Biwi...relax.
Madhu: How can you ask me to relax...RK tell me what happened yesterday...i can't remember anything...wait we went to Malvika's birthday party right then i had a mocktail...but I can't remember anything after that.
RK was disappointed when Madhu said this to him but he tried to maintain his composure in front of Madhu
RK: Madhu perhaps you didn't realise what it was...it's fine it happens.
Madhu: Ya maybe you are right. (Madhu agreed with him)
RK: Tell me one thing Madhu...you don't remember anything about yesterday?
Madhu: No RK I can't remember...but why are you asking me like this...did I do something wrong?
RK was broken hearing this but he couldn't show this in front of Madhu so he tried to shut this topic instead.
RK: A...no...nothing you did.
Madhu: Are you sure.?
RK: Yes Biwi...now I have to go for the shoot...I will see you in the evening (He said while getting up)
Madhu: Umm Okay! (Although she didn't wanted him to leave but she couldn't stop him like this even)
*********************
After getting freshen up Madhu came down...and she saw Radhaji sitting in the living room Radhaji saw her and asked her to sit with her.
Radhaji: Madhu come beta
Madhu smiled and sat next to her...she was feeling a bit awkward about yesterday that how Radhaji would have felt on seeing her in those clothes.
Radhaji: Madhu I must say you looked beautiful yesterday.
Madhu felt relaxed upon hearing Radhaji praising her instead of being angry on her.
Madhu: Thank you Ma...(She looked here and there thinking of something and she asked Radha) Ma have yo send RK's lunch?
Radhaji: Yes beta...I already told Patil to keep his lunch in the car when he was leaving.
Madhu: (She was disappointed on hearing this as it could have become an excuse to meet RK) Umm Okay...(and then she thought of something and asked Radhaji)Ma may I cook tonight?
Radhaji: But why beta...their are so many servents they will do all that...you don't need to bother about that.
Madhu: Please Ma i want to...you just tell me who likes what...everything else you just leave it on me.
Radhaji: Aa..okay beta if you want I will not stop you...And she told her who likes what...but when she was about to say what RK likes (Madhu stopped her in midway and said)
Madhu: He likes Aloo Gobhi...a little bit burnt...right?
Radhaji looked at Madhu in amazement.
Radhaji: Hmmm...so you know his likes and dislikes.
Madhu: Umm no Ma it's just I read it in one of his interviews so I remember...that's it. (She tried to hide her excitement as much as possible)
Radhaji: haha Okay Okay.
**********************
Malvika: Hmmm so she doesn't remember anything.
RK: No! (emotionless)
Malvika: It's Okay RK...it happens...infact you should be happy that she wants you do be with her...she finds comfort in your presence.
RK: Malvika you don't understand...how can i be happy...what all she said was because of under the influence of alcohol.
Malvika: So what?
RK: Malvika if I'll ask her now that what she feels for me...she will not give me the answer...I know she still doesn't trust me completely...It's a worst feeling Malvika when you know that the one you like, likes you too but can't say it to you...only because she doesn't trust you.
Malvika had no answer for that...she knew how RK was feeling...but she tried her best to alleviate his pain.
Malvika: May be she is scared to express her feelings in front of you. afterall she is a girl...just give her some more time.
RK: Leave it Malvika you won't understand...you have never been in love.
Malvika was stunned hearing him
Malvika: Now you are being mean RK.
RK didn't bother to say her sorry and left from there...leaving his friend in pain.
***********************
It was late night Madhu was waiting for RK to come. She was excited to know what RK has to say about she making dinner for him but she was nervous at the same time. After few minutes she saw RK entering the Mansion...and she quickly walked towards him.
Madhu: RK you got late today what happened everything fine?
RK: Ya actually the shooting was delayed for sometime. (He was not directly looking at Madhu)
Madhu: Oh okay...come i have made dinner for you...tell me how's it.
RK: Why?
Madhu: RK i was just...I mean I have cooked for you so I wanted to know whether you like it or not.
RK: Why Madhu...why did you cook for me did I ask you to cook...and is it so important for you to know that whether I like it or not? (Holding her arms)
Madhu was broken shocked seeing RK's behaviour. Her eyes were filled with tears because of his harsh words and RK saw this and released her from his grip and said.
RK: i am not hungry.
Madhu wanted to cry but she did not want RK to know that his harsh words has actually caused her so much pain.
Madhu: Fine If you don't want then don't eat.
And she left from there. She came to her room and straight away went inside the bathroom and cried silent tears. After few minutes she came out of the bathroom and saw RK coming inside the room. She deliberately ignored him and straight away went to the couch to sleep over there. RK saw this and and asked her.
RK: Now what is this?
Madhu: You do what you want...and I'll do what I want.
RK: Enough Madhu stop behaving like a child
Madhu got up in anger and asked him
Madhu: Fine agreed i am behaving like a child but what about you...you are behaving like a complete mad.
RK: Congratulations Biwi finally you know that I am mad. Now stop all this nonsense and come back to your bed.
Madhu: (she folded her arms and looked at the other side) No I won't.
RK: You won't?
Madhu: No I won't (this time her voice was bit louder and firm)
RK: Are you sure? (Coming closer to Madhu)
Madhu: Yes I am (still looking at the other side)
RK: Okay!
And in no span of time he picked her up and walked towards the bed.
Madhu: What is this...leave me RK. (She fidgeted)
RK: See Biwi...you only necessiate me to act like a mad. (And he placed down Madhu on the bed...and he pinned his hand on the bed and looked deep into her eyes and said) If you want to fight i will not stop you but If you will leave the bed and sleep on the couch I'll bring you back to the right place.
Madhu was listening to him dumbstruck. he did all this so quickly that she didn't even realise what happened...but then her gaze went on his lips which had some gobhi left over on it. And suddenly she bursted out laughing. RK stood up straight getting confused seeing her laughing.
RK: Why are you laughing.
Madhu: Do you have a handkerchief?
RK: Yes...but why?
Madhu: Give it to me.
And he took out one from his pocket and gave it to Madhu. She indicated him to bow down and said while wiping the left over.
Madhu: If you want to lie then make sure you don't leave any proof.
RK understood what she was talking about and both of them looked at eachother for few seconds and bursted out laughing.
Madhu: So?
RK: So what?
Madhu: RK how was the food?
RK: After so many days I had something which was filled more with love than only spices.
Madhu: Thank you!!
RK saw Madhu's face which was melting into happiness. It was like she only needed to hear this from RK. If it was possible for him he would have stop the time forthwith only to see her so happy. And in that moment RK realised that Malvika was write may be he should give sometime to Madhu to express her feelings in front of him.
****************
Next morning
Madhu was brushing her hair in front of the mirror while While RK was getting ready to go for the shoot. He couldn't find his watch so he asked madhu whether she has seen it?
Madhu:( While brushing her hair) Yes RK it's here right in front of me.
RK came and stood at the backside of Madhu. Madhu didn't realise he is there...she kept the brush and turned around and bumped into his chest.
Madhu: I..i...am sorry (She stuttered)
RK: It's okay (He said in a flirtatious tone)
And started walking close to Madhu she stepped few steps back but could feel the table on her backside. He had no intentions to stop and closed in more and more while she placed her hands on the table. He bent towards her while she closed her eyes. He scanned her face with that alluring look for few seconds he wanted to kiss those tempting lips but then he controlled his feelings. And bent more and took the watch from behind. And whispered in her ears.
RK: Bye sweetheart
And Madhu opened her eyes and He winked at her and left from there. Madhu was breathing heavely and could feel her heartbeats. She couldn't understand why did he do this and gulped in nervousness but then a smile took place on her lips while her cheeks turned red remembering everything.
THE END!!
