Chapter 43
Without speaking a word he walked ahead with long steps.. she followed...outside the hospitals... he searched every1... all had left...
She came and stood beside him.. and started walking towards to the parking area.. she was too much drained to walk... just then a compounder came running and... handed Kunj his laptop, files and mobile which were recovereed from the crash...
She brought the car in front of him... she could not trust herself driving in this condition but she could not allow him to even touch the steeering... he threw the files on the back seat and.. himself ... entered the passenger seat...
He quickly dialed...she wanted to stop him from taking any stress but avoided she was too scared to be the first one to speak... she decided to keep quiet... he couldnt use his right hand due to dressing... also his head bandanged couldnt be tampered.. he put the phone in speaker mode...
"Hello Akash.."
"Sir aap thik toa hai... na.. are you in the hospital... zyda serious toa nhi hai.."
"Cut the crap akash I m fine... muje Agarwals k bare me batao..."
"Sir aapke accidant k bare meine unko bataya... mene meeting postponed karne ki bhi koshish ki.. but vo nhi mane.. aapki health ki wishes deke nikal gaye.."
"Janta tha.. vo hai hi ... kaminey"
"You r right sir... you know humari office se nikalke... sidha vo... Singhs k yaha gaye.. aur mere sources se pata chala hai ki... vo isi deal k liye gaye hai..."
"Yeah I knew about that Akash..unhone humare alawa do aur ko shortlist kiya tha for this project..."
"Sir aapko pata tha unke aise unprofessional behavior se.. toa fir unse deal kyu karni thi"
"Kyuki usse hume bhot profit hone vala tha.. Akash... jo bhot imp tha for our company... ek toa pehle hi baki Sarna empire ki reputation gaddhe me ja raha hai... jisse directly indirectly hume bhi affect ho rha hai...and...aisi deals hath se jana is not helping..."
"Okay.. sir.. u take care... "
Twinkle could not get more drowned in the guilt... she dint wanted to cry again... she concentrated on the road...
As they were about to reach his phone rang... he just slided and... turned on the speaker mode...
"Sir...vaise ye time nhi aapko batane ka but"
"Just spit it out...Akash"
"Singhs k sath unhone vo deal sign kar li..."
He cut the call without further conversation... he looked out of the window...his left wrist forming a fist controlling himself...from breaking the window...glass...
As they reached... they got down... she walked beside him inside the house.. he was going through the file... turning its pages... trying to look into it deeply
"Palash chacha... Palash chacha..."
"Ji.. Kunj baba..."
he threw the file into the air... she saw it flying till it dropped open just where the servant was standing...
"Isko kachre me dal dena..."
He spoke so calmly but with a deadly stint... she could not imagine him being this angry... bebe surjeet all were pesent... they just kept mum... knowing about the Kunjs only flaw... his anger... which Twinkle was totally... unaware off... bebe just hoped that... kunj would change... whilst this marriage...
She knew that the deal was very imp... and it meant a lot for the company...he was bound to be angry but this angry she never imagined... the way he threw the file... sent chills... down... her body... also all those witnessing the scene... dint dare speak a syllable...
She saw him... walk upstairs...
"Puttar.. ja.. uske pas reh.. uski tabiyat thik nahi hai..." why bebe why.. she thought... that was the last thing she wantd to do... stay away from the Lion of a huaband Kunj had become... but bebes stress of Kunjs health made her concious... she was never ever gonna take chances on that...
He was sitting on the couch..
Sensing her presence... he opened his eyes...
And got up walked towards window.. looking out.. it was noon...
Twinkle wanted to break this ice.. she needed to speak.. and start her series of apologies... as ahe knew... he was not going to give in so easily... but she was ready ..as long as he is around.. all alive...
"Kunj...".
He dint look back.. towards her...
"Kunj.. I m sorr..."
"CHAR... BAJE.. TAK... TWINKLE CHAR BAJE TAK... me jaag kar vo file bana raha tha damnitt..."
She saw him... walk upstairs...
"Puttar.. ja.. uske pas reh.. uski tabiyat thik nahi hai..." why bebe why.. she thought... that was the last thing she wantd to do... stay away from the Lion of a huaband Kunj had become... but bebes stress of Kunjs health made her concious... she was never ever gonna take chances on that...
He was sitting on the couch..
Sensing her presence... he opened his eyes...
And got up walked towards window.. looking out.. it was noon...
Twinkle wanted to break this ice.. she needed to speak.. and start her series of apologies... as ahe knew... he was not going to give in so easily... but she was ready ..as long as he is around.. all alive...
"Kunj...".
He dint look back.. towards her...
"Kunj.. I m sorr..."
"CHAR... BAJE.. TAK... TWINKLE CHAR BAJE TAK... me jaag kar vo file bana raha tha damnitt..."
He spoke looking at her showing the four fingers of his left hand... she was taken aback...
She remembered the last message of his ... in the morning.. it was indeed 12 past 4...
He saw her scared... that was the last thing he wanted.. he liked her all fighty ... and.. arguining... yes he wanted to make her realise her mistake... but not.. by scaring her... also he remembered... his promise to keep his voice down until she raises hers... and here she was all silent... she was yet not recoverd from the hospital trauma.. her eyes spoke about it... he decided to take it calmly... she was his wife... and the damages done now in the begining would scar her forever... and he dint want to bring out his one weakness his one flaw his anger in front of her...he closed his eyes and.. remebered Mahadev.. how cool he remains no matter what conditions apply...chanting his name...he spoke up...
"Twinkle..."he said ..
Twinkle was surprised with the sudden change... of tone... it was soothing... she expected an outburst and.. she saw it coming... but his Calm tone calling out her name... relaxed her heart...
"Dekho twinkle... I know hum dono k liye ye sab adjust karna mushkil hai... apni life style change karna n all... I knw hum dono ko ek dusre ke sath mazaak karna acha lagta hai...
Twinkle tumhe mere sath jitna mazaak karna ho... jitna taunt marna ho... jitni bhi kabhi bhi tang khinchni ho... khich sakti ho... kyuki me bhi karta hu tumhare sath... nd I enjoy it too srsly isliye toa ab tak... kuch kaha nahi... par... twinkle dont you ever... kabhi bhi mere kaam k sath mazaak mat karna...kabhi bhi nhi..."
Aa his words poured in... she felt more guilty... here he should have shouted on her... and blamed her for everything.. but he dint do it.. instead he was making her understand... it just added up to her regret... the turn of events this morning was not thought kf in her wildest dreams... maybe he talked calmly with her... maybe he would be acting inspite of being angry... just so I dont feel bad... or whatever... but she was not up to her redemption... the fear of losing him... had engulfed her heart and even thousands of tears werent capable of draining it out...
