Roli was just sitting in the sofa looking at Siddhant...
She didn't even closed her eyes to sleep...
The time was moving towards midnight...
As the effect of injection reduced...
Siddhant started getting shivering...
Roli got tensed & rushed towards Siddhant...
She hold his hand & rub his palm with her palm...
She rushed towards his leg & rub his foot with her palm...
She did it repeatedly...
But he was still shivering...
Roli with hesitation forward her hand towards his shirt...
She removed his shirt buttons & rub her palm on his chest & shoulders...
She rub her palm & kept the heated palm on his cheeks...
Still he was shivering...
Roli think for a while...
She lay down beside him & hug tightly...
She went close as much as possible & hug him tightly...
With the warm hug she felt the shivering is little reduced...
But still he was shivering...
She removed his shirt and forward her hand towards her saree & removed it...
She wrapped the blanket around them...
In a while.. Siddhant was inside her warm hug...under the blanket...
Roli hold his hand & wrapped around her...
She hug him as tight as possible...
In a while... his shivering settled down and he slept...
Roli got breathe of relief & slept hugging him...
In the morning...
Siddhant wake up...
As he was partly conscious when coming down from terrace...
he didn't remember anything about coming to the room or got treatment or whatever happened after that...
He realised himself on Roli's hug while his hands were also wrapped around her...
He was sleeping on her shoulder hugging her tightly...
While Roli hand were also wrapped around him & she was sleeping hugging him tightly...
Siddhant can understand their condition inside the blanket and was shocked...
Siddhant tried to remember the happening of previous night.. while nothing was clear after Prem trying to convince him for coming to room...
By now.. Roli too wake up...
As soon as wake up.. She checked his temperature keeping her hand on his forehead...
Roli; Fever reduced.. Thank God...
Siddhant lift his face & looked at Roli...
She asked him looking into his eyes...
Siddhant swiftly moved away & lay down on the bed...
Siddhant: Roli.. what happened the previous night...
Roli; Siddhant.. your health was bad and Prem jiju bring you to the room...
Siddhant; I am not asking that.. i am asking what happened between us...
Siddhant: When you dont even wish me to touch you and was ready to kill yourself.. then how this can happen???
Roli: Siddhant.. I agree.. i told like that.. i was angry on you misunderstanding you... but already i came to know the truth and realised my mistake... but what are you asking.. what happened???
Siddhant: Roli... i already told there is nothing between us... you didn't ever saw the love between us.. instead only saw i tried to fulfil my desire.. then how you let this happen??? is it to blame me again that i played drama of getting fever...
Roli: Siddhant.. dont tell there is nothing between us... i agree. there was misunderstanding.. but that doesn't mean... you are not my husband & i am not your wife.. The situation made me to think like you are doing drama & trying to fulfill your desire.. Please forgive me Siddhant for hurting you like that... Then what blame you are talking about??? i didn't blame you for anything.. instead i am happy that you are well...
Siddhant; So situation is the reason that you failed to see the love between us... there is no mistake of yours...
Siddhant: Roli did you gave that chance to me??? what mistake i did other than loving you..
Roli: punish me Siddhant.. whatever punishment you want.. please give me.. but forgive me... please...
Siddhant; No Roli.. i dont even want to talk about any of those.. but only want to know when we were having such misunderstanding.. when you were not ready to allow me to even touch you.. when i decided to stay away from you.. then how this can happen...
Roli: Siddhant.. what are you talking about??? i really cant get you...
Siddhant; oh.. you are trying to act smart... Cant i understand what happened between us seeing us like this...
That is when Roli realised what he is talking about...
Infact in the happiness of Siddhant became alright and further auguments.. she forgot their state inside the blanket...
Roli: So what you understood??? seeing us like this...
Siddhant; Roli.. dont test my patience.. i feel bad.. something like this happened between us when i was not even in conscious... when i came to you in love.. you were not ready to allow me to touch you... you told you will kill yourselves... but now you came to know the truth and tried to apology... as i didn't accept your apologies and forgive you... you used my health condition and...
Roli: Siddhant.. stop it.. i said stop it...
Roli shouted at Siddhant...
Part 27Siddhant was stunned by her shout...
Roli hold his shoulder and turned him towards her...
Roli: Siddhant.. i am your wife.. i am not some other type of girl to use the opportunity and do something like that...
She said looking into his eyes...
Roli; you know what was your condition yesterday night.. you were going unconscious and doctor was called in the night.. He gave injection & told to keep you warm otherwise you will get fits..
Siddhant; What???
Roli: Yes.. but after midnight when the effect of injection reduced.. you started shivering... i tried to rub your palm & foot.. but was of no use... i was left with no option... I was afraid what if your health goes worst...
She got tears...
Roli; In that condition without any other way.. i shared my body warmth with you... just body warmth... understood... nothing more than that...
Siddhant down his face feeling bad for blaming her...
Roli: Siddhant.. you thought me so cheap??? if this is what i want.. i might have ignored the misunderstanding i got in my mind and accepted you on our marriage day itself..
She said looking into his eyes...
Roli: Siddhant.. you are my husband who got all rights to do anything with me... still you stayed away from me when i was not ready to let you touch me.. dont you think that much decency will be with your wife too...
She puzzled him...
Roli: Siddhant.. you maintained that decency as you love me right.. you were not interested to touch me without my wish right.. then when you are angry with me for whatever i did.. how i will do something like that..
The tears started scrolling from her eyes...
Siddhant; I am sorry..
Roli: Siddhant.. how long we will misunderstand each other & keep on telling sorry.. lets forgive everything happened in the past and live happily...
Siddhant: Roli.. i agree i misunderstood you about what happened in the night.. but that doesn't mean i forgive you...
Roli: But why???
Siddhant: Roli.. i am only remembering you holding the knife to hold me from touching you.. nothing more is remembered when thinking about you.. then how can i...
Roli: Siddhant.. nothing else is remembered about me??? tell that looking at me...
Siddhant; Roli.. please... i dont even want to look at you...
Roli: Siddhant.. i agree i committed mistake.. i even apologised for that to you... but you are not ready to forgive me.. but i wont give up...
Siddhant: what do you mean???
Roli: Siddhant.. i dont want your health to become worst for getting your love.. i can win you with my love too... i will love you so much that you will forget all the bitter happenings and accept me...
Siddhant; Sorry Roli... that love is lost between us... dont expect anything from me...
Roli: Lets see..
Roli pushed him to the pillow and kissed on his cheeks...
Siddhant; Roli.. what are you doing???
Roli; I am kissing my love.. my husband..
Siddhant; Why are you doing this when i told clearly...
Roli: Siddhant.. even before our marriage.. you kissed me.. that time i too was very clear that i am not interested.. still you did believing i too love you.. same way.. now i believe you love me.. now i am your wife too...
Roli moved towards his lips...
Part 28Siddhant thought old her there is no love between them...
He was unable to push her away...
When their lips moved apart...
Roli looked into his eyes...
Roli: Siddhant.. i love you...
Siddhant was stunned by her sudden love confession...
Roli: its strange right.. when you confess your love i was not ready to accept it.. now when i am confessing my love.. you are not ready to accept it.. Anyway.. as you wait for me to accept your love.. i too will wait for you to accept my love...
Roli looked at the time...
Roli: Now all will wake up & i am sure they will come here to check your health condition.. So its not good to be like this... lets fresh up...
Roli kissed on his cheeks again...
She got up wrapping the towel which was on the side table...
She rushed towards the bathroom to fresh up herself and returned having shower in a while...
Siddhant was still in the bed in deep thinking...
Roli gave another towel to Siddhant...
Roli: Siddhant.. fresh up yourself... i will bring tea...
Siddhant got up wrapped that towel and went to bathroom...
She put their clothes for washing and went down to prepare tea...
None were awake till that as may be due to they slept late after doctor went...
Roli returned with 2 cups of tea to their room...
Siddhant was changed to a shorts & tshirt and was sitting in the bed... leaning on the pillow...
Roli went near him and sat beside him in the bed...
Roli: have this tea...
Siddhant & Roli started having tea...
In a while...
Prem & Simar entered into the room as the room was kept open by Roli...
Prem: How are you feeling now bro???
Siddhant; I am alright...
Prem: Siddhant.. why you went to terrace when you got temperature.. you know you started shivering and Roli rushed to us in fear...
Siddhant looked at Roli...
Prem: above that you were not ready to come to room and it become difficult task for us to bring you room itself.. then we called doctor.. he gave injection and went..
Siddhant: Oh ok...
Prem looked at Roli...
Prem: Roli.. he didn't got any problem in the night right... you know we were afraid as doctor told he should be kept warm otherwise he may get fits..
Simar: Yes Roli... he was not sleeping for long.. we thought if we slept then even if you call us in emergency.. we may fail to know it..
Roli: he got shivering.. but i handled it...
Prem; Good Roli.. Thank God.. he didn't end up with fits or anything...
Mataji & Sujatha with rajender too entered into the room...
Mataji: How is your health Siddhant???
Siddhant: I am fine Mataji...
Sujatha: You made everyone afraid yesterday night.. you know how you were shivering..
Mataji: Yes.. Roli become restless seeing your condition... we were afraid only and prayed to God to get you alright...
After talking to Siddhant for some more time.. all went leaving Roli & Siddhant...
Roli:I will bring bread for you to eat.. then you can have medicine...
Roli went down and bring bread in a plate...
She took a piece and forward her hand towards him while...
Siddhant: Roli.. you keep the plate in the table.. i will have it...
Roli: But why???
Siddhant: Because you did that only yesterday... you kept the bread there and told me to have...
Roli: i agree.. but that doesn't mean that i should not feed to my husband the whole life... on our marriage day i told you not even touch.. while didn't i hug you myself yesterday..
She puzzled him and started feeding Siddhant...
After having bread...
Roli gave the medicines...
Doctor came in a while and checked his health...
Doctor:Good improvement... than expected... i was expecting him to shiver again in the night due to health condition he was yesterday.. did he???
Roli: Yes doctor.. he did... but i handled...
Doctor: Good.. otherwise.. i dont know what might have happened...
He told to continue medicine for 2 more days & left...
Roli: Siddhant.. you sleep and take rest..
Prem: Roli you too take rest.. your eyes tells you didn't sleep well...
Roli: Yes i will jiju...
All left their room...
Roli locked the room and went near Siddhant...
Siddhant was wondering what she is going to do...
Roli went to other side of bed and lay down beside him...
Siddhant turned again her and moved till the end of the bed...
Roli with a smile moved towards him...
She went as close as possible & back hug him tightly...
Siddhant; Roli.. what are you doing??? take your hands...
Roli:Siddhant.. you went till end.. what if you fall in sleep.. thats why i am holding you from falling...
She gave excuse for her action..
Siddhant turned towards her...
Siddhant; move..
Roli moved while Siddhant came little inside...
Siddhant; Now i wont fall.. so stay away...
Roli with a smile wrapped her hand around him & hug sidewise...
Siddhant; what now???
Roli: Now not for holding you from falling.. instead to make you fall in love..
Roli said with a mischief smile and closed her eyes...
Part 29Roli wake up & look at herself sleeping on his shoulder...
While she was surprised.. his hands were also wrapped around her...
Roli in happiness tighten her grip around him...
Siddhant wake up on that tightness and opened his eyes...
Siddhant: Roli.. are you trying to broke my bones or what.. how tight you will hug...
Roli: Siddhant.. in the happiness of getting your hug.. i will even break your bones...
That is when Siddhant realised his hands were also wrapped around her...
He swiftly took his hand...
Roli lift her face & looked at him with upset face...
Roli: Siddhant.. if i know you will take your hands.. then i might have not told.. when you were not having problem till now.. then what happened now???
She took her hand behind & hold his hand...
She wrapped his hand around her...
Roli: Siddhant you know i remember you hugging around my waist in the car...
Siddhant: but you said i just...
Roli: Ssshhh...
She kept her finger on his lips...
Roli: No talks about misunderstanding.. ok..
She hold his cheeks with her hand & kissed on the other cheeks...
Roli: Siddhant wont you feel like kissing me...
Siddhant; No Roli...
Roli: But why???
Siddhant; i fear.. you may tell i did drama.. i planned everything...
Roli: Siddhant you too hurt me with your words.. didn;t i accepted as your misunderstand due to situation & accepted.. then why are you so adamant...
Siddhant; Roli.. even if you are in my place.. you might have mistaken me that something happened between us when you are unconscious... but what you did is conscious... you know how much i loved you.. when we married.. i felt like achieving something great.. though i did career achievement.. academic achievement... When i came near you.. you know how much love & wish i had... so many times than the restlessness you are facing now.. but when you..
He closed his eyes...
He took his hand which was wrapped around her and pushed Roli gently from his shoulder...
He got up and went near window...
Roli got up and went near him...
She lean on his shoulder & wrapped her hand around him...
Roli: Siddhant.. i know yaar.. i hurt you a lot.. i even told you to punish me... i am ready to bear.. but why are you hurting yourself...was that day the last day of our life??? now i realised my mistake.. i confess my love.. as you said.. i came myself to you.. then why you are ignoring me???
Siddhant: Its not so easy task Roli.. whenever i see you.. whenever i talk to you.. whenever i touch you.. only those are coming in my remembrance.. what can i do...
Siddhant moved away from her and went out of the room...
He went to the hall and sat with others...
Roli wipe the tears which tried to escape from eyelids and went down...
She stood near Simar who was standing near the sofa & was gazing at Siddhant...
Some general discussions were happening between family members...
All enquired about his health on seeing Siddhant...
When he tried to divert his mind with his family members...
Roli was unable to divert her from him...
Part 30Siddhant started mingling with everyone...
He was talking nicely with everyone including Simar who was new to this house...
All had good time talking with each other...
Roli was looking at all those conversations and realised she is alone isolated...
He didn't even turned towards her to even look...
Roli was thinking.. its all because of me...and i deserve this...
Roli got tears. and she tried to hide it...
that is when...
Mataji: Siddhant.. if you are there to talk.. then we dont even realise the time...
Mataji looked at Sujatha...
Mataji: Sujatha.. you need to prepare dinner right.. we have not even seen the time...
Sujatha: ok.. i will prepare...
When Sujatha tried to get up.. Roli interrupted...
Roli: Maaji.. you be here.. i will take care...
Simar: Roli.. i will come to help...
Roli: No didi.. i will take care..
Roli went to kitchen...
She kept the vegetables to boil for side dish & started making chapathi...
While tears were scrolling from her eyes...
Roli: Siddhant.. i am sorry naa yaar.. wont you even accept me as one among the family...
She again & again wipe her tears & continued doing chapathi...
Her words & her tears were noticed by Siddhant who came there to have some water...
Infact.. he did noticed Roli going away with the reason of making dinner from others...
That is why he came near kitchen to see what she is doing...
He moved from there & went back to sofa...
Roli continued her cooking & completed preparing dinner...
After completing.. she came to hall...
Roli; Dinner is ready.. please come to have...
She called everyone and rushed inside kitchen to wipe the tears before others notice that...
She swiftly washed her face & came to dining...
She arranged all the plates & served to everyone...
All started having dinner... while she was just gazing at Siddhant with corner of her eyes...
Their talks continued...
They laughed & had fun...
Roli was unable to stand there anymore...
She served everyone and after all confirmed its enough...
She moved from there towards upstairs...
She went to terrace...
She looked at the moon & stars to divert her mind...
But nothing was giving any peace to her...
The tears were scrolling continuously from her eyes...
After sometime...
She felt someone coming near her & swiftly wipe the tears...
She turned to see who it is with a smile...
While Siddhant was coming there with a plate of chapathi & side dish...
He came near her & forward his hand with the plate...
Siddhant; Roli.. have this...
Roli: i am not hungry...
Siddhant: how come not feeling hungry.. have this...
Roli turned against him as the tears tried to come out of her control...
Roli: Actually while preparing.. i had few as i was feeling hungry.. thats why...
Siddhant: Oh.. tell that looking at me...
Roli was unable to turn with the tears which was scrolling on her cheeks...
Roli: Siddhant.. you go to room.. just now your health is better...
Siddhant: Roli.. you will turn or not..
Roli wipe her tears & turned towards him...
Siddhant: why are you feeling bad now??? when i said you are not among the family...
Roli was unable to control her anymore...
She swiftly join his shoulder & hug him tightly...
She started crying...
Roli: Siddhant.. there is no mistake of yours.. its me who spoiled my own life.. as i told all those to you.. you got angry on me and avoiding now.. what is the use of feeling bad...
Siddhant sat on the floor & made Roli too sit pulling her hand...
Siddhant took the chapathi & started feeding Roli...
Siddhant: Roli.. you know you are the one with whom i wanted to spend time with after once seeing you.. even in your house i was restless to see you & came near the window... further meet were also like that only... but after our marriage.. your words made me to wipe away all my wishes and stay away from you... now you want me to turn normal with you.. but its not easy task... i understood you realised your mistake.. i understood you really crave for me... but to get back to normal with you.. may be i need some more time... i am sorry for that.. but there is no need for you to feel bad in this... its you the wife of this Siddhant in this birth... even in further births...
Roli with tears lean on his shoulder...
