Part-14
"The heart is the place where we live our passions. It is frail and easily broken, but wonderfully resilient. There is no point in trying to deceive the heart. It depends upon our honesty for its survival."
Leo Buscaglia
Gopi returned home and told Anand only the vital things...burying the rest deep inside her heart. Anand told Gopi how concerned he was for her..he wanted to say something else too but he left that unsaid because he didn't want to hurt Gopi.
Ahem reached MM and felt that the house wasn't a home because Gopi and Prabal aren't there...Prabal was his heir and Gopi his????
Ahem didn't have the courage to think about it, their relationship was hard to be described. She is his wife in some way and she is Anand's in some other way...Anand..Anand...how he wished that the guy disappeared from Gopi's life.
Ahem looked at Gopi and Prabal's pic in his mobile...he made it the screensaver.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ahem started visiting them atleast once a week..he would meet Gopi at a secret location and meet Prabal when Anand was at home...that was his way of proving in front of Anand that he is living with his wife and child...Gopi would try to hide her feelings in front of Anand but Ahem's idea worked...Anand was feeling threatened.
That night he told Gopi that they must have a kid...he hoped that the baby would be a girl as Prabal wanted a sister..their family would then be complete.
Anand still liked Prabal but his resemblance to Ahem never failed to remind him of the shaky ground he was standing on.
Gopi didn't give a definite reply and it worried Anand...why was she avoiding the topic?...would she have tried for a second child if she was still married to Ahem...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------Police came to arrest Anand...the crime? Raping a minor in Bhagalpur and absconding from law...
Gopi couldn't believe what was happening around her...Anand never seemed that sort of man...he respected women...Then why is the police here? How could he do that? Did he do that?
Gopi was convinced by the police that Anand's real name was Shashank Sinha and he has several cases registered against him...Gopi was devastated, she couldn't believe her ears...her love might no longer belong to Anand but her trust didn't waver.
Anand was led by the police into their vehicle, Anand screamed that he was being framed..."Gopi please believe me".
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hours passed but Gopi was still in a daze..Ahem entered the house and said that he has heard all about the arrest, he had doubted Anand's intentions all along.
He asked her to return to MM with him..she hesitated for a moment but then decided that moving back to MM was the best option in front of her now...at least Prabal would live with his biological family...and she could go back to her first love and start life afresh. Kanhaji please be by my side.
