PART 3
Miami, USA. 23rd March
PJ had not woken up and it was already 8:30. Martha was tensed. PJ is still sleeping, How come? Shall I wake her up. Well, let me first make the breakfast and then i'll wake her up. Martha quickly prepared the Pasta and Juice which PJ mostly took for the breakfast. At about 9:00, Martha peeped in to see that PJ was still sleeping. She called Anvesha, who was on her way to the play-school where she had to drop Angela. Anvesha Ma'am, I am Martha speaking. Ma'am PJ is still sleeping. I think she is not well. Shall I wake her up?. Anvesha wondered, PJ! still sleeping! Guess what's happening to her these days. Then answered Martha, Martha don't wake her up. I am coming there. Give me 30 minutes but DO NOT wake her up. Give her anything only if she desires. Is that clear? Yes, Ma'am Sure! Goodbye Ma'am. During this time, occasionally Martha would peep in PJ's room and found her turning restlessly in her sleep. It proved that she was ill. At about 9:40am Anvesha arrived and headed straight to PJ's room. She sat beside her and felt her forehead. She was flushed with fever. PJ murmured, Mamma! No PJ, that's me Anvesha. How do you feel? What the hell did you do with yourself. Why are you flushed with fever? I am fine Annie! Just give me a minute, i'll get ready. She tried to get up but Anvesha pushed her down.PJ you aren't going anywhere, I am calling the doctor...aa.aa.. don't try to get up or i'll kill you! I am dying, already. My loneliness is killing and eating me from inside. It's better I should die of a disease. Shut Up, You aren't leaving us. Don't you dare forget about Angela. We will never let you die. Shut up okay. Never say that to me again. Did you hear that. Never. Anvesha hugged PJ tightly. She called the doctor who told that it was a normal season change fever and after having pills she can continue with her work and can even go to the office. But Anvesha didn't let PJ go to the office nor she went there herself. For the next 2 days. Anvesha and Angela lived with PJ at her bungalow and filled the emptiness of the house.
3 Days Later- Miami
PJ finally got well and accompanied Anvesha to the Office. To her surprise, the entire office asked about her health. Even Marissa called twice. They received a letter from Marissa that day-
Anvesha, Abhishek and PJ,
Your Air-tickets and all the other expenses will be born by the Company itself. Get packing guys. By the way, wishing PJ a very healthy life ahead. Don't you dare fall ill again. The entire office feels hollow without you. Anvesha, your girl's education will not be hampered. I have personally contacted the principal and she is ready to give her leave for a month or more than that.You will find the air-tickets and some other details of the project you are undertaking in the parcel attached to this letter. See you at the Airport
With Regards,
Marissa.
Anvesha jumped with joy and kissed her hubby while PJ just rose and went to her cabin. She was gazing at the tour-guide attached with the letter which showed the delicacy of Dehradun. Tears never came in her eyes for these trifling matters. She tried to divert her mind and started going through all the files that needed her assent before being sent to Marissa. In fact, Marissa believed her blindly and would herself never go through the files if PJ had already assented them.
At her bungalow, PJ started packing her luggage. She also put her mother and father and her sisters' photos with her luggage. Next day, she would be leaving for INDIA! She was proud being called an Indian and never in her early life had planned to leave her country without telling anyone. She was going to her country as an NRI.
Next day, at 7:00 am sharp. Anvesha arrived at PJ's bungalow where PJ was all ready. She gave Martha her salary and asked her to be in the bungalow as soon as she called her.
So P...PJ all shet(set) leady(ready) to go to In...India!
Ya'ah, totally Angie...what about you?
Mee too...totally leady!! Sho(so) letsh(lets) go!
C'mon shout now...India we are coming.
India, we...ale coming! yipee! Da..Daddy...you ale leady?
Ya'ah Darling, I am ready. C'mon, come in daddy's arms. Come Come Come...ahaa! Good Girl!
They reached the airport and found Marissa waiting for them. Hi PJ, Annie and Abhishek. Hi shweetie...She turned towards Angela, Pleashze do not touch me...I don't like stlangels(strangers). Okay, I will not... Sorry. PJ tell hel, i don't like hel fache (face)... Sho don't show it to me pleashze... Both Anvesha and Abhishek felt embarrassed and asked Angela to keep quiet. After barding the flight, Angela slept. Abhishek was busy working on the designs while Marissa was snoring at the back seat.
PJ, It's been more than six years since we met and I told you everything about my life. Now you need to tell me. Why did you come to Miami. You never speak about your family. A long silence grips your mouth when i talk about your family. In the flight, you need to tell me everything about you. I saw your expression change when Marissa decided to come to India. So you need to tell me please.?
Anvesha, I never wanted to hide my past from anyone. But my past is so dark! I mean i can't trouble anyone with that. But I will tell you write now..everything. Everything that always pinched me from within...
You always wanted to know na! why i hated my birthday? I will tell you that even.
"It's been 6 years since I left India but my story dates back to 21st March, 2003...My first day at the first year of College. I belong to Dehradun Anvesha!... It was my 21st birthday and My dad had gifted me a BMW. I was very keen on showing this to everyone in the college..."
