Cady exclaimed from da door entrance who had been listening to the convo all da while... I have an idea..
******************************************************************part.13
the dawn broke at the eastern sky... a mixture of yellow n orange on the horizon beneath a dark neon blue ocean of night begun to evaporate.. the sunrise had become even more beautiful as the sun peeked over the horizon. The sky had now become pink like a sea of cotton candy, with the light of the sun coloring the clouds above with a pinkish hue. As the sun slowly ascended, the sky in the west became fresh baby blue as the light reached further out... the pearly rays of the sun pricked through the tiny gaps between the silk curtains n played on the eye lids of a weary priya.. the flickering sun n floating curtain seemed to play hide and sick over her face..
she stirred a little in her uncomfortable sleep dressed in the same outfit from last night with peehu peacefully sleeping beside... her tiny hands snaked around her mother possessively...
priya slowly opened her eyes adjusting her sight to the bright light of the morning... her head throbbed in pain.. ram's sudden change of decision had left priya dazed.. she had no will to take any further step.. she would let fate decide it for her this tym.. she moved peehu's hand carefully from her waist n placed a pillow beneath it.. pushing her tired feet into the slippers priya got out of bed.. she made her way to the balcony n stood their lost in her own thoughts.. how drastically life had changed in just about 5 years.. did she want things this way, had she ever wanted to live a life without ram...?? she closed her eyes shut n arching her head back she thought to herself... the thin skin of her forehead folded in to lines of worry.. wht treacherous games were fate playing with her.. priya gulped in a mouth full of air when da loud ring of the land line buzzed in her thoughts.. tracing back to the hall she picked up da phone lazily
P: hello
RJ: hi pooja
P: haan kahiye rajat
RJ: woh aj tumhe zaara ghar pe ana padega.. woh actually kal se pehle humare paas bas aj hi ka din bacha hai toh kuch chizey final karni hai
P: umm rajat m not feeling well.. kya mera aana zaruri hai.. ap woh mera shopping ka saman aur jo bhi aur zaruri hai woh Cady ke hathon nehi bhijwa sakte kya?? waise bhi mujhe cady se thodi baat karni thi
priya wanted to escape every face off with ram.. I've had enough..!! if this is da way ram wants.. this wht he will get.. priya thought in her mind
RJ: haan woh toh main bhej sakta hu lekin kuch jewelers aiye huye hain toh daija chahti hai tum ake apne liye khud jewellery select karo
P: rajat u knw m not fond of all these fancy rituals.. ap daija se boliye na mereliye choose kare.. woh jo pasand karengi main wohi pehenlungi
daijan grabbed da phone from rajat.. pooja main kuch nehi janti.. tumhe bas anaa hai ok?? 2 ghante mein ajao m waiting.. she didn't wait for an answer n just hung up..
priya was left with no choice she got peehu ready.. fed her n dropped her at her school n reached rajat's house
the setting was as rajat had described... some of the best indian jewelers in dubai were present there along with their best collections.. but priya was in no mood.. wht would she do with all these sparkling jewellery if her man was not with her.. she didnt want to face ram but unknowingly her eyes wondered around in search of him.. she spotted him right at the top corner of the staircase that leads to the 1st floor.. his eyes were darting around here n there aimlessly when they finally found meaning.. ram sighed and mouthed a sorry pouting lyk a child... priya glare went stern on him n completely ignored him.. taking off her eyes from him she went to daija who was busy examining a piece of neckless
DJ: areh pooja agayi tum?? aaja baith mere paas.. she held the neck piece over priya's neck which fitted perfectly around her slender neck n flawlessly shaped collar bones
perfect..! tumhe pasand aiaya pooja??
P: jo ap thik samjhe daija.. mujhe inn sab chizo mein zyada interest nehi hai.. woh daija main aj soch rahi thi ki shop mein chali jau.. haar roz kisi na kisi bahane shop bandh hi rehta hai
DJ: nehi bilkul nehi.. jabtak sagayi nehi hojata tum kahi nehi ja rahi
P: lekin daija..
DJ: koi behest nehi pooja... waise kal tumne apna saman kaha rakkha tha?? maine kitna dhunda mujhe mili hi nehi
P: woh upar wale kamre mein hi tha.. accha main hi leke ati hu.. waise bhi mujhe nikalna hoga thodi meain.. peehu ko school se pick karna hai na
she looked back towards da staircase to finding that ram was no longer standing there.. slowly she climbed up da stairs hoping not to have another face off with him.. but she knew where she'd kept her bags.. it was da where he was staying.. priya tapped on da door with her tiny fist but there was no reply from inside.. tapping 2-3 times more she twisted da knob to open da empty room... she sighed a breath of relief and looked for her bags when a pair of hands grabbed her arms.. she knew it was him..
R: priya ek bar meri baat sunlo
she turned back to him with blazing eyes... kya sunu main ram?? kya sunu?? sunne k liye kuch bacha hai kya?? jab maine apse bola tha ki main apke saath wapas nehi ja sakti ayesha ki khatair toh apne mujhe kya kaha tha?? ki ap sab thik kardenge hai na?? toh aj kya hogaya ram ap yeh kya kar rahe hai kyun kar rahe hai??
R: rajat tumse bohot pyar karta hai priya.. ussne kahi baar mujhe tumhare bare mein bataya tha.. tab main nehi janta tha ki uski pooja meri priya hai.. lekin aj jab main yeh jaan chuka hu toh mujhe samjh mein nehi araha hai ki kya sahi hai aur kya galat.. bohot mushkil se woh sambhla hai priya, tumhari wajah se.. main apne khushiyo k liye uski khushiya nehi cheen sakta
priya grabbed his collar n spoke under her gritted teeth.. so is it a deal Mr.Ram Kapoor.. apki khushiya vs rajat ki khushiya?? aur mera kya ram?? peehu ka kya?? ap aaj wohi galti dohrane ja rahe hain jo panch saal pehle maine ki thi.. kyun ram kyun?? kyun ap dusro ke bare mein itna soch te hai?? kaab jeeyenge hum apne liye ram... kab??
firming her grip on his collar he jerked him at da end of each sentence (remember 5th march.. priya's power packed confession😉)
P: apne mujhse wada kiya tha ram.. ki ap mujhe aur peehu ko le jayegn.. ki ap sab kuch sambhal lenge... ap yeh kar rahe hai ram?? kyun kar rahe hai?? kya main aur peehu ap ke zindegi mein koi mainey nehi rakhte??
Ram was mum... he had no answer to her questions
P: toh ap kuch nehi karenge?? kuch nehi karenge na?? with one last might jerk she let go off his collar
P: thik hai agar ap kuch nehi bol sakte toh main bolungi.. main baat karungi rajat se... main unhe batau that I AM MRS. PRIYA RAM KAPOOR stressing each word loud and clear...
ram was shocked to see priya lyk this.. he tried to stop her but priya was in no mood to listen to him.. she rushed down da stairs in search for rajat determined to finish off everything once and for all but the moment next wht came into her view left her perplexed... she froze in her position while ram came running right behind
"di... ap zinda hain...??"
