PART- 7
Raavi tossed and turned in her bed.she was unable to come to terms with her new found feelings.
Hey somnath.yeh sab kya ho raha hai? Meri life kitni sorted thi.dev se shaadi.pandya parivaar ki bahu banna,pandya store sambhalna.ab mai kya karu? Bachpan se pure somnath Mai dhindora Peetti ayi hu ki mai dev se pyar karti hu.ab achank sabko pata chalega ki mai shiva se..sab kya sochenge mere baare mai? Maasi to shock mai chali jayegi.aur dhara di ko kya kahungi? Woh to meri aur Dev ki shaadi ki taiyariyon mai lag chuki hai.aur shiva? Kya woh bhi mujhse?
She got up from the bed feeling tensed.
What if shiva didn't love her?
She paced in her room up and down.she took her phone and saw the time.it was late but she had to talk to shiva.
She called him.
"Raavi? Tu thk hai na? " Shiva was surprised to see her call this late.
Raavi smiled a little hearing his concerned voice.he rarely called her raavi.her name sounded so good from his mouth.
" Hello " shiva said
" mai tujhe kaisi lagti hu shiva? " She asked
Seriously? She is disturbing his sleep for this?
" Gadhedii.tune aadhi raat ko apni tareef sunne ke liye meri neend kharab ki? " He said annoyed.
" Seedha sa sawal hai shiva.bol naa " raavi whined
" Dekh, mera dimag mat kharab kar.mai phone rakh raha hu, agar tune dobara call kiya na to bahut galiya padegi tujhe.aur ladko wali galiya dunga, samjhi tu? Isliye chup chap so jaa aur mujhe bhi sone de " shiva said and cut the call.
Raavi cut the call scared.
Her eyes filled with tears.for the first time she was scared of losing shiva. What if he didn't love her? What if he actually marries someone else? She tried to calm herself and get some sleep.
**************************************************
Raavi woke up with a new resolve.she had to find out what shiva feels for her.if he doesn't love her,then he will make him love her.
" Tu raavi hai.somnath ki sabse khoobsurat ladki.shiva ko tujhse pyar zaroor hoga" raavi assured herself looking at the mirror.
She got dressed in a jeans and yellow sleeveless kurti with a deep back.she tied her hair up in a ponytail.did light make up and made her way to the store.
" Shivaaa " she shouted
Shiva rolled his eyes.
" Kyaa kar raha hai? " She asked smiling
He looked up to see her. She looked different today
"Havan ki taiyari kar raha hu " he replied
" Havan? Kyu? " She asked confused.
" Woh kya hai na dukaan pe chudail ka saaya hai" he said
" chudail ka saaya? Kaisa saaya? " Raavi asked and moved closer to shiva clutching the sleeves of his shirt.
"Yehi.mere saamne.jitni baar bhagao, phir se muh utha ke aa jaati hai" he said
Raavi realised what he is saying and slapped his arm.she took a deep breath calming herself.she has come here for finding out how he feels, not to fight with him.
"Ho gaya tera? Ab mujhe mere sawal ka jawab de." She said
" Kaisa sawal? " He asked
" Bhool gaya? Yehi ki mai tujhe kaisi lagti hu? " She asked again.
" Kaisi lagti hai matlba? Chudail hai tu. Kaisi lagegi? " Shiva said casually.
" Shivaa.mai serious hu " she came in front of him and placed her hands on his cheeks making him look towards her.
" dekh mujhe.acche se dekh." She said slowly turning around.
" Tujhe Mai acchi nahi lagti? " She asked in a soft voice.
Shiva looked at her carefully.she looked beautiful.she always did.he would never say it on her face but she was really somnath's prettiest girl.her yellow kurti fitted her perfectly enhancing her curves.the deep back revealed her smooth skin.
He turned away when he realised he was looking at her for quite some time.he closed his eyes and held her arms and took her out of the shop.
" Aaj ke liye bahut dimag khaa liya tune. Chal nikal " he said.
Raavi pouted at him.how will she know his dil ki baat if he is always so rude.
Shiva was confused at her behaviour.why would she ask him whether he liked her or not? How does it matter?
**************************************************
"Woh kuch bole tab na.uske naak pe hamesha gussa chadha rehta hai.bahut kam aise moments hote hai jab woh apna dil kholkar rakhta hai." Raavi said to her friends roshni and Shalini.
" Par tu sure hai na?kal tak to Dev ka naam jap rahi thi. " Roshni asked.
" To kya hua? Naam Dev ka japti thi par hamesha to shiva ke saath hoti thi yeh " shalini said
" Mai bahut badi gadhi thi.par ab mujh mai akal aa gayi hai.hamesha se shiva hi tha, bachpan se.meri har problem mai woh mere saath tha, mujhse itna ladta hai par koi aur mujhe pareshaan kare to woh uski jaan le lega.mera din use dekhe bina pura nahi hota.jab usse baat nahi hoti to ek ajeeb si bechaini hoti hai.shiva mera hai.uski gauri to mai hi banungi " raavi said with a determined face.
" Accha? Itna confidence? Agar usne tujhe reject kar diya to? " Roshni asked
" Woh mujhe reject karega? Raavi ko? Chance hi nahi hai.aise pata lungi mai use " raavi said snapping her fingers.
Shiva was passing by when he listened to the last line.that was his chipkali's voice.kise patane ki baat kar rahi hai woh? he came closer to see three girls talking under a tree.
" Jo bhi bol, woh Banda hai bahut sakht.aise nahi pighalne wala." Shalini said
" Kaise nahi pighlega? Zaroor pighlega.iss cute si shakal ko koi mana kar sakta hai kya? " Raavi said.
" Lagi shart? Agar shiva maan gaya to tu hum tujhe maan jayenge." Roshni said
" Hum haar jayenge roshni.uss jungle ko raavi jaisi ladki uske sapno ke sapno mai bhi nahi mil sakti aisa chance thodi na chodega woh." Shalini laughed.
Tears stung Shiva's eyes.this girl was making fun of him with her friends.just to show her friends that she is capable of having any man she will play with his feelings? shiva left from there angrily.he couldn't hear it anymore.he may be a junglee, unpadh, sadakchaap person but he respected people's feelings. He always told dev not to lead raavi on.he always warned raavi that Dev doesn't love her.is this why she was behaving differently with him in the shop today? he drove the bike in full speed furiously.
" Kya baatein kar rahe ho tum dono? Mai shiva se pyar karti hu.mai apne pyar par shart nahi lagane wali.aur tum log use junglee nahi bulaoge.woh haq sirf mera hai. Mera junglee bhalu " raavi said with a smile and blushed.
Her friends shook her head at this girls nautanki.the girls chatted away till dusk.
