FF-Meri Padosi part 12

She still had her face buried in his chest…as he held her into his arms protectively…

Her tears were not willing to stop…no matter how hard she tried…

She felt scared…scared remembering all of it again…

Though she knew this day had to come …that she would have to face him again…

though she believed that she was prepared…and would be able to put up a brave front this time around…facing him made her courage collapse…

She slowly pulled herself away form him…she felt miserable…miserable of always needing someone else to deal with things in her life…

Miserable of being a kind of person who always runs away from problems…always cries about it…and then needs people to console …

But felt more miserable that in spite of knowing this fact…she was unable to change herself…

She had pulled away but he was still holding her by her waist…she moved aside a little…and he left his hold…

She started to walk away…he did not question…but simply followed her…

They reached the car …she opened the passenger's door and sat in…he settled to the other side and they drove off…

She rested her head against the window and closed her eyes…

A lone tear escaped them…

Shaan moved his gaze towards her…saw her crying again…

He himself had no idea how much he hated to see her like this…

His hands automatically gripped the steering tighter as he recollected Rishab's face…

All he wanted to do was just go and hit him …hard enough to make him regret for what he did to her…make him beg for forgiveness…

He took a deep breath as he concentrated his attention back on driving…

They finally reached their building…

He turned around to look at her…

She still had her eyes closed and her head rested against the window…she had fallen asleep…

Her face looked pale …it was as if all her energy had drained away…

"How can life be so rude to her? Why is it finding ways to make her sad?"

He thought…

He just kept looking at her…not willing to wake her up…

For some reason she looked happy asleep…as if dreaming something…something pleasant…

She stirred a little…a small hint of smile appeared on her lips…as she murmured…

"Mamma"

The way she said it sounded like it was coming from some kid's mouth…

She said it again…this time sounding more childish…

Her widened smile was evident…

He wondered what she must be dreaming about…but whatever it was he was happy to see that hint of smile on her lips…

Reluctantly he called out her name to wake her up…but she did not …he called out her name again …but in vain…

He finally shook her a little and she woke up startled…

She seemed unaware of where she was initially…but reality struck her soon…and that slight hint of smile…disappeared…

He felt bad… but her dream had to end…

They both got out of the car and headed upstairs…

She was too lost in her thoughts…and instead of the lift took the stairs…

He did not bother stopping her …but just followed…

As they reached their floor…she turned to look at him…he smiled…she did not smile back…just thanked him and left…

He kept looking at her as she was approaching her house…

She had started to take in deep breaths… she rubbed her hand on her eyes …her face…to try and remove the evident dullness…brought a smile on her face before she hit the doorbell…

Her Mother opened the door…she smiled at her warmly and got in…

"So much for a little soul to do" he thought…

……………………………………………………………………………

It was Sunday…and unlike all times when Khanak enjoyed being home and relaxing…today she hated it…

Being home meant doing no work…which would make her think about the incidents of the previous evening…and her Mother would guess something was wrong…

And Khanak definitely did not want to make her sad again…

She tried distracting herself by making breakfast…then watching TV …reading a bit…she thought she was successful as well…

Mrs.Kapoor did not question her about why she looked sad or something…and Khanak was relieved about it…

The morning passed by…they both had lunch and then she decided to take a nap…

She woke up…the clock showed 8 pm…

"Why didn't her Mother wake her up?" she thought…

She went out to check…her Mother was preparing dinner…

Khanak: App ne mujhe uthaaya kyu nahi…I slept for quite long…(she said hugging her from behind)

Mrs.Kapoor: Uth ke kya kar leti…maine socha tum thak gayi hogi..isliye nahi uthaya…

Khanak: Oh! I love you Mamma…(hugging her more tightly)

Mrs.Kapoor: I love you too…

Just then the doorbell rang…

Khanak: Ab kaun aya iss pyaare se moment ko kharaab karne…

Mrs.Kapoor: Jaake dekh lo…

She smiled at her Mother and went to open the door…

Khanak: Shaan..( looking at the thing in his hands covered with a cloth) ye kya hain?

Shaan: Mehnat..

Khanak: Mehnat?

Shaan: haan..ab kya tum please iss mehnat ko andar aane dogi…

Khanak: Sure…come in…(she said moving aside)

Shaan: Thank you...(he looked around and then asked)uh...aunty kaha hain?

Khanak: Kitchen main..par..

He headed straight to the kitchen not bothering to listen to her further…

Shaan: Hello aunty…

Mrs.Kapoor: Shaan…kaise ho?

Shaan: fantastic…app kaisi hain?

Mrs.Kapoor: I am good..just making dinner…

Shaan: Well…then I am going to make things better for you…with my cheese macaroni..

(as he said this he pulled out the cloth from over the bowl and held it in front of her)

Mrs.Kapoor: ye tumne banaya hain…?

Shaan: Ji bilkul…

She turned around and looked at him…then at Khanak who was standing behind…

Mrs.Kapoor: Par kisine mujhse kaha tha ki tum thik se anda bhi nahi bana sakte..

Shaan: really…toh uss kisiko main aaj wrong prove karke rahunga..samijhti kya hain mujhe..hmm..(looking at Khanak from the corner of his eyes)

She did not respond back…did not intend too…but simply walked besides him and stood there…He looked at her…he wanted her to get angry …to taunt him back…but she simply smiled…and he knew that was a fake one…

Mrs.Kapoor: (she looked first at Shaan..then Khanak) Uh...ek kaam karte hain..main jhaath se khaane laga deti hoon…phir hum sab saath main dinner karenge..aur tumhari macaroni bhi khayenge…

Shaan: Not a bad idea..waise bhi mujhe akele dinner karna acha nahi lagta…

Mrs.Kapoor: Tum dono bahar baitho…main abhi ayi…

Khanak: Main aapki help karti hoon….(approaching her)

Mrs.Kapoor: Main kar loongi beta…tum jao…

Khanak: par..

Mrs.Kapoor: go….

They both went out and sat on the sofa besides each other…she simply switched on the television…

He wanted to talk to her…but she did not move her gaze away from the TV.

She wasn't watching anything in particular…just switching channels to avoid talking to him…and he had obviously guessed that…

He didn't want to push her and just kept quiet…

Mrs.Kapoor got the dinner ready…They ate together … talked about random things…Shaan realized Khanak was trying to act very cheerful in front of her Mother… but he knew she wasn't actually happy…and that hurt him…

Mrs.Kapoor complimented him for his Macaroni …while Khanak had simply nodded in agreement…

He felt sad…that she did not even acknowledge it nicely …

He knew she was just not present in the moment…and constantly kept thinking about something else…

He wanted to cheer her up…in any possible way…he tried being humorous…cracked a couple of jokes…but all in vain…all he got was a fake smile…

They finished eating…Khanak and Shaan helped Mrs.Kapoor with the dishes…

In spite of her stopping him…he wanted to give a helping hand…

They were just sitting there for some time after dinner…when Shaan came up with an idea of playing scrabble…

Mrs.Kapoor: Scrabble?

Shaan: haan..mazaa ayega…lets test everyone's English skills...(he said rubbing his palms with eachother)

Khanak: Aap dono kheliye…mera mood nahi hain…(looking just at her Mother)

Shaan: Kyu daar gayi..?(raising his eyebrows at her)

She looked at him…then at her Mother who simply gave her a smile…

Khanak: Daar nahi gayi…bas mujhe khelna nahi hain…

Shaan: Matlab daar gayi…

Khanak: Thik hain..I will play…(she acted as if having no choice)

Shaan: That's like a good girl…(he smiled )app dono rukiye ..I will get it…

He came back quickly with the board…

They all sat together on the floor…with Shaan and Khanak facing eachother and Mrs.Kapoor in between them…

He placed all the letters upside down…and each picked seven of them…

Shaan: Alright then…lets start… beautiful lady first…(he looked directly at Khanak at first and then quickly moved his gaze to Mrs.Kapoor) aunty..you begin…

Khanak smiled looking down…and for the first time in the evening he saw that on her lips which was genuine and not forced…he couldn't help smile as well…

Mrs.Kapoor placed the first word on the board…

Mrs.Kapoor: Toh mera score jua…7...

They continued the game…with Khanak next and Shaan later…

Khanak: Age…

Shaan: And I will make it Cage…

Mrs.Kapoor: Caged…

Shaan: Not bad aunty…

Mrs.Kapoor: I pass....(she said analyzing the letters on her rack for the last time)

Khanak: Yea…got it…pass…(she clapped her hands in amusement)

Shaan: Hmm…Client…double word score…I am moving ahead…looks like the Kapoor ladies cannot cope up with the Khandelwal guy..

Khanak: That is for you to wait and watch Mr.Khandelwal…(she raised her eyebrows at him)

Shaan: Yea ..right..(he gave her a wicked smile…but was happy inwardly…that Khanak had finally cheered up)

Mrs.Kapoor: Owl…

Khanak: Bowl… Triple word score…you are so going to lose Shaan…

Shaan: hmm…lets see…here goes mine…Care…

Mrs.Kapoor: Silk….

Khanak thought for a while and then placed the word on the board…

B

O

W

L O V E

He looked at her…but she was looking down at her rack…trying to think of new combinations…

He looked down at his and placed a word…

B

O

W Y

L O V E

U

It was now she looked at him…he gave her a very soft smile…

It was in that spilt second when their eyes locked to each other …her heart fluttered…

They both were simply staring when Mrs.Kapoor came up with her word…

B

O

W Y

L O V E

U G

G

Looking at what her Mother had come up with…Khanak couldn't suppress her smile …neither could Shaan…

"Looks like the egg is not leaving me soon" he thought…

They continued the game…

It was evident Khanak would get overjoyed whenever she scored big…she would at times even clap her hands in excitement…and Shaan and Mrs.Kapoor felt happier seeing her like that…

As the game approached the end…Shaan and Mrs.Kapoor…started to score low…while Khanak would always land up getting high points…

She was overjoyed like a kid…winning…

At the end they calculated the scores and Khanak turned out to be a clear winner…

She shouted a "Yay"

Khanak: Loser Mr.Khandelwal…(and showed him out her tongue)

And he just couldn't help not smile at her gesture…

Mrs.Kapoor: Alright…the Winner cleans up the mess…(she got up announcing)

Khanak: That's not fair…

Shaan: Of course that's fair…aunty is the eldest out here..unki baat mano…clear this up..(he gave her one of his mischievous smiles)

Khanak pouted a little and started to put things back at place…while Shaan and Mrs.Kapoor…went ahead and began watching TV…

She was done with the letters on the board…and moved to collect the one's from Shaan's rack…simply she looked at them and realized…he had many options to score big…then why didn't he…she thought…she looked at her Mom's rack and realized the same…

It struck her…both of them had lost intentionally…

"But why?" she thought…

The answer was already known to her…because they wanted to make her happy…

Not a big thing to do at all otherwise…just losing a game in scrabble…but this time it was different…

Different…How both of them guessed correctly what could bring back a smile on her face…How both of them supported her childishness…childishness of wanting to win…

She looked at the two people in front of her…

There was her Mother…whom she thought she had tricked by not telling about the other night…but she just realized she was wrong…there is nothing in this world that can go unnoticed form a Mother's eyes…

Her Mother knew she was disturbed…that she was hiding something…but did not ask…because she believed that if is she was hiding something…then there surely has to be a reason to it…and her Mother respected that reason…she did not push her about anything…just gave her time…time to analyze things herself…

And then there was Shaan…someone who can still be called as a stranger…but someone who came so close to her and her Mother in days…

He was there just to make sure she was alright…he was doing all this crazy stuff so that she smiles…he knew he wouldn't get anything back in return…he did not even ask for anything…still wanted to make her happy…

Khanak couldn't thank God enough for bringing such wonderful people in her life…

"And what was she doing for them?" she thought…

"nothing" was the only answer she got…

Some Rishab who ruined her life held more importance to her than the two people in front of her right now?

His existence mattered more to her than them?

She cared about his presence more than theirs?

Why?

He did not deserve her tears …he definitely did not…

He did not deserve the time of her life she wasted thinking about him…wasted crying about…

She knew she had to stop reacting the way she did yesterday…

But instead got out there and punish him for his sins…

Make him suffer rather than suffering herself…

And that was the only way she could do justice to Varun…to his soul…

Shaan was right…Varun would have never liked to see her in the condition…If he was present this moment…he would have asked her to give things back to the person who was the culprit that day…

She stood there simply thinking until her Mother called her out…

Mrs.Kapoor: Khanak…?kya soch rahi hoon…

Khanak: huh…(startled she came out of her thoughts) kuch nahi bass aise hi…Shaan..ye lo..(she handed him the board) Uh..Mamma I will just get some fresh air…before I sleep…aap so jayiye…

Mrs.Kapoor: Thik hain..take the keys…

Khanak: Sure…

Shaan: (he got up as well) I will make a move too…Good night..

Mrs.Kapoor: Sone se pehle taazi hawa khaani chahiye..(She looked at him) neend achi aati hain…

Both Shaan and Khanak looked at Mrs.Kapoor and then back at eachother…

Shaan simply smiled at her and then got back to Mrs.Kapoor…

Shaan: Sure…night aunty…

Mrs.Kapoor: Good night Shaan…

……………………………………………………………………………………

He followed her up to the terrace…she walked ahead and stood near the corner…he stood besides her…

Shaan: This has been kind of a daily thing…

Khanak: It feels good here…(she said looking up)

Shaan: Yes ..It certainly does..(looking at her) are you alright?

Khanak: Now I am…(she gave him a broad smile)

Shaan: This is the way you need to be..(he pointed at her smile) I don't like it when you cry…and you cry too often yaar…

Khanak: (she smiled again looking down) jaanti hoon…even I don't like crying Shaan...

Shaan: Can we take a walk?…I ate a lot…(rubbing his hand on his stomach)

Khanak: Sure…(chuckling a little)

He put his hands in his pockets while she folded hers…as they walked…

Shaan: (still walking)Your Mother makes fantastic food…you know…I ..really liked it…

Khanak: Is that a hint to tell me that I haven't praised your cheese macaroni yet...(she smiled in teasing way)

Shaan: No..I was just…(she cuts him)

Khanak: Shaan…

Shaan: Hmm..?

Khanak: The Macaroni was nice...in fact was great…I couldn't believe you cook so well…and I liked really it…

Shaan: I am glad you liked it…(he spoke after pausing a bit)now at least you won't tell people about my bad cooking skills…jala hua anda and all...(he chuckled)

Khanak: I am not forgetting about that egg ever…

Shaan: Lucky egg...he will always stay with you…

Khanak: Definitely lucky…

As she said this…she increased her pace and walked past him…

Shaan: You were what some kind of athlete in school or something...?

Khanak: Why are you asking this?

She had to turn her head back a little to look at him…she was walking fast as he tried keeping up with the pace…

Shaan: You always walk and run fast…that night on the beach..then the park..and even today…you seem to be too enthusiastic when its comes to walking or running…

Khanak: I don't know how to answer that but I wasn't any athlete…though I played volley ball in college…but that was long time back…

Shaan: Long time back..what does that mean…you were in college some 20 years back?

Khanak: With long back I meant when Varun used to play it…it was because of him I got interested as well…

Shaan noticed she was talking about Varun openly today…not holding any inhibitions…

The wide smile on her lips was the evidence of how much she liked being with him…how much she adored their moments together…

He felt jealous about Varun for the first time…

But was glad he would never come back to her life again…

He immediately cursed himself for his last thought…how he could be so selfish and mean …how could he even think something like that…

Khanak: Shaan..?

Shaan: haan..?

Khanak: Kya soch rahe ho?

Shaan: kuch nahi…(he smiled feeling a bit guilty inside)volleyball huh…I am impressed…lets put up a match someday…unlike scrabble…I will definitely beat you this time around…

Khanak smiled at him…admiration clear in her eyes…

He couldn't figure out what that was for though…

Khanak: Tum bahut ache ho Shaan…bahut ache…

He was confused as to why she suddenly felt the need to say so…

She was serious but he took it in a humorous way…

Shaan: Aisa mat samjho Khanak…even I have bad things in me…(he said smiling)

Khanak: There is nothing bad in you…there can never be…

She stopped walking… looked at him…he looked back at her …

Suddenly the humor was no more there…but he got a strange feeling inside him…

A strange feeling of how pure Khanak was…how innocent her thoughts were…and that was probably something that could hurt her…

Shaan: I am not God Khanak…(he moved closer)

Khanak: But you turned out to be an angel in my life…(she stepped closer to him as well)

Shaan: You are so innocent... I am afraid…If I ever break your trust…(he cupped her face into his hands) Khanak…I… I don't know why but I just cannot see you sad…it hurts...it hurts like anything…

She looked into his eyes…that were piercing hers…in the most caring way ever…

She had never been cared so much by a man…yes never…not even by Varun…

"If you break my trust…I will stop believing in humanity Shaan" She did not say it aloud but just to herself…

He was still looking at her intensely…

Her feeling of admiration towards him was overtaken by some other feeling… something strange …

She moved back…making him pull his hands away from her face…

He was disappointed…he wanted to hold her like that forever…but let her go…

She took another step back…and smiled…he found it strange…

Out of nowhere she pointed her hand out towards the sky…he moved his head in the direction…

Just then he suddenly felt soft lips against his cheeks…

Before he could realize what just happened…she ran away…leaving a dumfound Shaan behind…

He bit his lower lip as he smiled with a blush…placed one of his hands on his heart and the other on his cheek where she had kissed him…

Looked up at the sky closed his eyes as he unknowingly whispered "Haaye"

im speechless thts all i can say👏👏👏👏👏👏

Omg !!!
