Chapter-14

Mishti braced herself for the impending doom. How long could she hide here? It had been three days since she hadn't gone to office. She has to face him sometime, damn it! There was no running from him. There was no running from herself either, she couldn't lie anymore, not to herself. She loved him! Yes, she was in love with him, despite his arrogance, his cruelty she'd fallen for him. Despite everything she fell for him irrevocably.

But he wasn't the man for her, of that she was sure. He'd hurt her at every single chance he got and he'll keep doing that if she allowed it. Hence she has to leave him for good. Yes, she'll resign and go to Vedika masi and when she was better she'll come back and look for another job. She took the resignation letter and readied herself for his ire, that was sure to come.

**********************

She directly aimed for his cabin as soon as she reached the office. She knocked twice before entering....

"Mishti..." He stood from his chair and started coming towards her but she held her hand out to stop him and he halted reluctantly

"Mr Rajvanshi, I want to re..." But he didn't let her finish and said instead

"Look Mishti I know that you're mad at me, and rightly so....the way I handled things was...ahm...cowardly. But you can't deny that what happened between us wasn't a teenage hormonal thing. I....I want you, and I know that you do too. I'm willing to rectify the situation and I have something that'll make you very happy" he smirked and went to his desk to retrieve some papers. He gave them to her with a satisfied grin. She was so confused by his behavior to say the least, she took the papers and started reading.

She felt the blood drain from her face as she read that. How could he? For a minute she couldn't believe her eyes but as her mind started processing she knew it was real. As real as it could be...

SMACK!! she slapped him hard across the face, so hard that he got pushed back a step or two as he wasn't expecting the blow and his lower lip split. He looked at her with shock and anger but she didn't care

"How dare you!! You were trying to buy me!! What do you think I am?? Let me tell you one thing Mr Rajvanshi, I might be poor but I don't sell myself for the luxuries, for I don't need them. I'm happy being the way I am. I don't need big flats and expensive cars and fancy dresses. Because there is something which is more important for me than those things and that is my self respect! You fixed a price for me, did you? Well, my character is way above reach than your rich filthy hands! You can bet all your money but you can't touch it let alone buy it!!" She tore the papers into pieces and threw them at his face

"I always knew you're not a good man, but I never thought that you'll go to this extent to humiliate me! To degrade me! Despite all the insults you threw at me, all the cruelty I endured from you, I loved..." She couldn't finish that sentence, if he knew she loved him he'd ridicule her for that too! Not that love remained now, she hated him now, despised him! Tears of humiliation and anger were streaming down her face.

" I never want to see your face again!" And with that she left.

********************

His left cheek was throbbing where she'd hit him, but he didn't care. It was the pain in his heart that was becoming unbearable. Her tear stained face kept coming to him, and it was killing him. What the hell just happened! He slammed his fist on the wall and the blow cracked his knuckles but he didn't pay any attention. Why did he do that? Because you're an asshole! She said despite all his cruelty she loved.....did she mean she loved him? The thought gave him immense pleasure for a minute, but the reality made it's presence known soon. Even if she loved you then, she hates you now! You've made sure of it!

Everything, everything he ever liked or wanted had a price to it, and he always paid that price. His cars, his suits, his watches.....and girls. None of them had ever shown any interest in him. Oh, they all were interested in him, but it was his money that attracted them not the man. He was a package deal for them, a man with big fat wallet. He was like an ATM machine for them, he paid all their expenses and in return could have the warmth of their bodies. And he liked that deal, no strings attached. But he did the mistake of thinking that she was like them. She wasn't. She was different, he knew that from the first time he'd met her. Then why the hell did you do that!! He wanted to believe her that she loved him....but he couldn't! A part of him that was so bruised from the past betrayal was warning him not to believe her, what if she was lying?

"WHY!!!" He screamed. He kneeled down on the floor and looked over his head.

"Why God, why did you made me this? This cruel, cold hearted beast! Why can't I be like everyone else? Why can't I trust like everyone does.....love like everyone does? I'd have been happier even with empty stomach, even if I lived in a hovel and worked as a sweeper, for then, my heart would have been unburdened, I wouldn't have had to fear that someone might stab me in my sleep. Then I could laugh freely, live freely.....love freely!

" but no, you had to give me this big rich status....that offers all the luxuries of life but deprives the most essential and smallest of things. You gave me this big house, when only a place would've been sufficient, a place I could call home! You gave me parents again, only to make me realize that I'd have been happier as an orphan. And now, you tempted me with love, only to find a drop of it in the desert! Today you snatched my only salvation..... She'd never forgive me now....never!" He didn't realize that tears had started pouring down his face and someone was witnessing his breakdown.

*******************

Mishti hurriedly went to her cabin, she didn't want everyone to witness her in this state. She took her bad and started to leave this godforsaken place for ever

"So, you gave up on him too, did you?" She turned and saw Mr Merchant standing there casually, one shoulder leaning on the wall and and hands in pocket.

"Yes" she said truthfully, she didn't see any point in hiding it.

" so you'll leave him too" he said with disappointment on his face. She didn't like it one bit..!! He was behaving as if she was doing something abominable when she was the victim here!

"Do you have any idea what he did? Or maybe that's not that big a deal in your rich status, but it is to me. I might be poor Mr Merchant but I have my self respect intact!"

" I do not know what he did Mishti, but I have some idea. And trust me when I say this, that he does have reasons for that, not that it justifies what he did to you. The world has given him nothing more than cruelty and he's only returning the favour now, and you're the collateral damage here. I'm not stopping you, I just request you to hear me out once, after that you're free to leave, if you still want to" she didn't say anything but she didn't leave either and he took it as his cue to continue.

"I know him since college days, he has always maintained this cool arrogant exterior of his but if you look at him, really look at him, then he's nothing more than a tortured soul, a child who is starving for love for so long that he has forgotten that it even exists. He doesn't have many friends....in fact I'm his only friend, and that too because I wouldn't let him go, no matter how much he tries, and try he does, trust me.

"I think I'm the only one who knows his secret. He's as b*****d. Literally. He was illegitimate that's why his mother left him in an orphanage, the Rajvanshis adopted him when he was three weeks old. They gave him all the luxuries a child could wish for but they never gave him what a child needs the most, that is love. They never cared if he lived or died. Raghav Rajvanshi was a money minded asshole who only knew two things, business and his wife. Despite his doting attention Mrs Rajvanshi left him....when she found a better deal somewhere else. But she didn't just leave.... She revealed to Ruhaan that he is adopted and was an illegitimate child in most cruel way possible. She snatched the hope of a ten year old boy. He always wanted to impress her, to be the kind of son he thought his mother would love.....but that never happened. He wasn't even allowed to call her mom in public or in private for that matter, only in his dreams he did that. But that never discouraged him, he tried his best to be the son he thought his parents would approve of. And one day the reality sank in.....and he got to know that he'll never be the son they'd love because he wasn't their son ever. It broke him. Everyone wants a piece of him, his money and that'd made him cold from inside out. Tell me how do you expect him to be kind and warm when all he has ever gotten from life was cruel and cold? How do you expect him to understand love when no one ever loved him?

" I know you love him Mishti, I can see the longing and anguish in your eyes for him.....and he loves you too, the sucker might not have realized it yet, but I know he does. I've seen the way he looks at you....like he's dying of thirst and you're his elixir, like you're his reprieve in the moment of death, like he'll die if he stopped looking at you. I've told you everything Mishti, now it's your choice to leave or stay....I won't stop you" and with that he was gone.

Mishti sat on the chair, for her legs were shaking too much to carry her weight. Her choice he said, how could she make a choice? Her heart wept for that little boy....she understood his pain....but what about the pain this man had given him? Could she ever forget or forgive him? The price he had set for her had imprinted itself in her memory.... Could that ever be erased?

"What do I do now Ruhaan, how do I forgive you? He says I'm the only one who can heal you but how do I heal you when you've already killed me?"

To be continued.......
