Part 27Arjun and Arohi came back home and got a sigh of relief on knowing that
Sneha wasn't there. Though Arjun had doubts that she was off to the same
function as they were about to go but still, not seeing her face right
now was a good thing. Arohi went to check on Ananya. Today, they had an
important meeting during lunch hour so they couldn't go to pick Ananya
up from school and right now, she wanted to make sure Ananya was Ok and
was ready to listen about her day at school. Arjun loosen up his tie and
opened his sleeves button before opening the closet to take out his
suit to wear tonight. His eyes fell on Arohi's side of cupboard and a
smile automatically got place on his lips. It felt great to share each
and everything of your life with someone. Where Sneha used to like to
have her privacy in each and everything, Arohi liked to share. From one
closet to same shoe rack. From one plate to one glass. From tears to
smiles. She would share it all with Arjun and Arjun would do the same.
He shook his head with a silly grin before his eyes fell on the wrapped
box. If he remember, he gifted this to her few months back. He was on a
shopping spree with Arohi for Ananya when his eyes fell on that lime
netted sari have beautiful royal blue velvet flowers' patch at the
border with silver stones adding shine to the flowers beauty. He left
her in a shop after making an excuse and buy that sari secretly for her.
She hadn't open it yet so he did the honors and unwrapped the box
before putting it on the bed. Right that moment, Arohi entered the room
and gave a surprised smile. "What are you doing and why have you taken
this out?" She asked before she sit on the bed. "Because you haven't
even given a look to my gift and as a punishment, I want you to wear it
tonight". Arohi looked up at him with an open mouth before looking down
at the sari he put on the bed. "But thats net" She cried after observing
the material. "And you know how uncomfortable I feel in revealing
clothes". She argued before Arjun once again dug himself into her side
of closet and took out her lime blouse and petticoat. "I think your
blouse is long enough to cover most of your belly so no arguments. I
love this sari and I want you to wear it for me tonight". She looked up
at him with a cute pout but that didnt affected him a bit and he shook
his head with a grin. "Fine" She said defeatingly before once again
looking at the net sari.
There Sneha went off to her parents
house. She needed a one to one discussion with her father right now.
Though she knew that Ron must have been aware by now of her activities
but she doesnt care. The two man she loved more than her life had played
with her. Her feelings. Her life. They have kept her away from her
daughter all through those e years of her childhood and she was adament
to never forgive them. Her car went in through those large metal gates
towards her father's enormous mention where she had spend her childhood
getting everything that she demanded. The house and the status, she used
to be do proud off all through her college and school life was now
making her disgusted. Her stern steps leads her out from the car and
inside the mansion after pushing the crafted wooded doors wide opened.
"DAD...MOM" She shouted on the top of her lungs that made her parents
get out from their room at the very instant. "Honey, what a
surprise...When did you came to Mumbai?" Her father Mr. Bajpai asked in a
suger coated tone. "Cut the crap dad...You fairly well know why I am
here...and now i need to know why...Why you did this to you own very
blood...Why did you destroy my life by making it a part of your
plan...Plan to take over Singhania Industries." With each word she said,
the light in Mr. Bajpai's eyes went dim till they were blank. "Tell me
Dad" Her mother looked at her father with hollow eyes. There intriguing
eyes made Mr. Bajpai gulped down his saliva. He had nothing else to say
than that power and name took over the father inside him and let him do
that. Sneha was sitting on the sofa with her mother. Mrs. Bajpai was
trying to console her while looking daggers at her husband. "But I tried
to make things good...Haven't I?" He said with a frustrated sigh. "You
wanted Raunaq and I get you married to him.. Didn't I?" Mr. Bajpai said
in a tone that said that he had done more than necessary for her. Sneha
looked up with hatred. "At what price...In how much you sold your own
daughter...Tell me Dad" She was furious now and her father looked down
guiltily. "Whatever you get out from it, I lost more than that...I lost
my Riya Dad...I lost my husband just because I trusted you more than
him...and more to it, I lost the childhood of my 2nd Baby...My Ananya"
She blasted the news on her mom whose eyes went wide hearing it. She was
all unaware of this happening. Mrs. Bajpai was out in America on a trip
to meet her sister when Riya died & Sneha went to labor. "What?"
Mrs. Bajpai asked in a whisper, not believing the words. "Yes Mom, He
snatched my baby from my...My Ananya...who now dont even dare come into
my arms...Her own mother can't hold her as now she have someone else in
her life to call as a mother". Sneha started crying. Tears flowed freely
from her eyes that made her mother cry too. She went to her mother and
hold her shoulders. "Mom you know...You know my daughter doesn't know
me...She dont want me touch her, hug her, kiss her...She wouldn't allow
me to wake her up for school, to help her dress, to prepare breakfast
for her...She don't even like to go out in the park with me" Her teary
voiced boomed into the air. "She hates me instead whenever I try to took
her away from Arohi...She hates me Mom, She just...Hates me" Sneha
broke down at her mother's feet and her mother bend down to gather her
in her arms. "Shhh" Mrs. Bajpai whispered while rubbing her back. Her
own tears were running continuously seeing her daughter's devastation
state. She looked up at her husband and whispered. "You were wrong..You
were wrong...And you will cry for it"
Arohi came out from the
bathroom wearing her sari. Her hairs were
dripping wet from the shower she just took. She rubbed her hairs with a
dry towel and reached her dressing table to get start with the make
up. "Where is Arjun?" She thought while looking back at the side table
where Arjun was sitting, sending some mails from his laptop before she
went to washroom. At the moment, Laptop was there but the man was
missing. Arohi just turned and run a comb from her hairs. She finished
applying eyeliner when she saw Arjun entering the room while talking on
the phone. "I don't know...You got to send them those documents right
away..." He was instructing one of his employees when his eyes fell on
her, or rather her revealing back and those deep chocolate eyes turned
softer. "I got to go now...Just do this" He ordered once again and cut
the call only to come and wrap her in his arms. He inhaled her hair's
intoxicated smell with a deep breath and sigh with a kiss on her neck.
"How will I concentrate on anyone else around if you will look that
killing" He half whispered in her ears while dropping small kisses here
and there. Arohi got a soft smile on her lips and bit the lower one with
a grin. "You yourself asked for this torture...I have nothing to do in
it" She gave him a challenging look that made him smile in the mirror.
"Thats surly a torture". He whispered and took his fill of his eyes of
her before placing a kiss on her shoulder and backing away. "I should
get ready now...The earlier we leave the earlier we will be back and
then earlier I will not have to concentrate on anything else" He winked
at her back and turned around with a goofy smile. Arohi was all blushed
with his comments. She ruffled her hairs to cool down her body
temperature that seemed to get to a new bar just with his little
closeness.
The heads turn in the direction of the door as Mr
& Mrs. Singhania entered the hall. Its not everyday that they attend
a business party. Its been 4 years since Arjun stopped being a part of
the crowd but right now, looking at his happy face, everyone can guessed
that the woman beside him, is tend to change that. He was holding her
hand tightly in his as he greeted few of his associates and introduced
her. Both were looking like a perfect couple, complimenting eachother.
While she was wearing a lime netted sari having a patch of navy blue, he
was wearing a dark grey suit with a white shirt underneath and topping
it with a navy blue tie. Arohi smiled like a supporting wife and shook
her bangle filled hands with the associate wives. Soon enough, Arohi
made friends with few and get into a general conversation of dresses.
"Your sari looking fabulous...From where you get it?" One from the
ladies asked her while checking the stuff of her sari. Arohi raised her
shoulders. "Don't know...Arjun gifted me this" In reply, she just got to
hear few aweees that made her blush. Arjun from the other side looked
through the crowd at her wife and seeing her talking happily, put a
smile on his face. "Now whom I found here?" A sarcastic voice reached
him from the back and his body get alert. Mr. Bajpai whom Arjun had
successfully avoided in last 4 years, was once again standing infront of
him with a wine glass in his hand and a smirk on his face. Out from his
and Sneha's marriage, only Arjun and Mr. Bajpai knew what he had got.
20% shares of Arjun's company but to Arjun, it doesn't matter anymore.
He was a sleeping partner and so he has promised to not interfere in any
business matters as far as he get his share of profits. And Arjun
expected nothing more from him. The man who can actually trade his own
blood for money, can only think of his benefit. "What do you want now?"
Arjun spatted. "Nothing, was just checking on my investment" Mr.Bajpai
replied. "Really..." Arjun said with a cocky grin. "You really made an
investment here...and as far as I remember, We promised eachother to
never come face to face..." Arjun asked. But before Mr. Bajpai could
reply back, there was a commotion going on on the other side that caught
there attention.
"Thats what she all wanted out from this
marriage...Arjun's money" Sneha said much to Arohi's displeasure. Here
she thought going out to this party will help Arjun mind's to be at
peace but here Sneha was all ready to destroy that. So much for the
peaceful mind. Arohi thought. But right now, Sneha was not going to back
out. She was hurt enough from the whole matter and needed an exposure.
And for her, this party comes out as a chance. She was drunk, Arohi
could make out so she composed her features and went to Sneha. "You need
to sit down" She told her holding her hand to stable her. "No, I know
your act...this amazing act of care and love...You can fool Arjun but
not me here..." She shouted attracting more attention of the people.
"You are wrong here Sneha..." Arohi tried to say only to be cut by her.
"Oh really..." She replied sarcastically swinging here and there on her
feet. "Then tell me who the hell like to get married to a man already
having a baby... Its just for money" She said with hatred. Arjun's jaw
clenched in anger and his hold on the wine glass, he was holding got
tighter. His eyes shoot up to look at Mr. Bajpai who shuddered with the
intensity of his gaze. "Stop her or I promise, You will never be able to
look into anyone's eye with my declaration of your deeds" Arjun
threatened. At some other time, Mr. Bajpai would have ignored his
threat. He had a thick body that hardly let any emotion display on his
face, but right now, on seeing Arjun, he knew he will do whatever he
said and all Mr. Bajpai ever loved was his fame, his money and most of
all his pride. He put the glass on the side and went to get his
daughter. Arjun looked at the scene and decided to get into it. At any
case, he have to save Arohi today. "You are just going to leave him one
day after you get your share of money...Thats all you care right...You
S***" But before she could say anything anymore, A hand came and left
its mark on her blushed cheek. Sneha holding her cheek looked up to see
an angry Shaina looking up at her with daggers. Arjun stopped in his
tracks just a few steps away. Each person in the room was looking at
them. Arohi was having tears in her eyes after hearing all those words
in public by Sneha. She let her stay in the house with the thought that
she is a mother and deserves a chance with her baby, but here, Sneha is
trying to kick her out from her own house now. "Stop that you b****...If
anyone has to think of anything is you...Its you whose father sold you
so just he could take out money from Arjun. Don't you think we know
that" Shaina raised her brow to see a stunned Sneha. Aditi came from the
back and pulled a teary eyed Arohi into her arms. "And this girl, We
know her much better than you. We have seen her and Arjun falling in
love. She being nice let you stay in her home so just you could get some
memories of you and your daughter and here, you are trying to insult
her. But then, We expected nothing more than this from you" Shaina
spatted on Sneha's face with pure hatred. Aryan came and holded Shaina's
shoulders from the back. "Lets go Shy..." He whispered and Shaina
looked around once before turning on her toes after passing a last glare
to Sneha. Nitin & Aditi gave hateful looks to Sneha too before
taking Arohi out from the hall. Arjun looked up at Mr. Bajpai with a
furious look now. "You and your daughter will pay for that Mr
Bajpai...Just remember that" He warned and the look in his eyes showed
that he will exactly do that. He left the hall following his friends and
left Mr. Bajpai being the center of attention of all people. All looked
at him with glares and the gossip of his meanness started around.
"Arohi...Arohi..."
Arjun came running out and pulled her crying face into his arms. Arohi
clutched the front of his coat into her fist and cried silently.
"Shhh...We shouldn't have come here" Arjun placed a kissed on her
forehead. His friends looked up at them helplessly. "Arjun...You should
take Arohi home now..." Aryan whispered to him slowly. "The guts of
that woman...I am feeling like slapping her once again" Shaina said in
anger. "Calm down Shy..." Aryan rubbed her arms and motioned Arjun to
go on. "I will see you guys tomorrow..." Arjun said and pulled Arohi
towards the car. He helped her in and after running to the driver side,
drove towards the home.
When they reached home, everyone was
sleeping thankfully. It was around 11:30. They changed there clothes and
get on the bed cuddling eachother. Arohi's head was placed on his chest
but thankfully she wasn't crying anymore. This evening surly made a
huge impact on there minds. Arohi was lost in her thoughts and Arjun was
lost in his. Sleep was truly far away from there eyes. The silence
prevailed for two long. An hour then two then three when Arohi asked.
"Arjun..." "Hmmm..." Arjun hummed running his fingers through her
hairs. "Do you too think that I am after your money?..." Arjun was
shocked to hear it from Arohi. He looked down at her to see that far
away look on her face. "Arohi...Please look up at me" Arjun said and
Arohi looked up, putting her chin on his chest now. "Do you think I ever
thought this way about you?" He asked softly. "No, I know...But people
do think like this...They must..." "No no no...They dont" Arjun cut her
in between. "And even if they do, i don't care" He rubbed his thumb on
her cheek. "The thing that matter to me is that you love me...You love
Ananya with your wholeself...and we love you too...You make my home a
home...You bring dreams into my life when I have given up all of
them...You mean my life now Arohi...Don't doubt yourself...Ok"
Arohi nodded on seeing the honestly, his eyes depicting. Arjun pulled
himself into a sitting position, making Arohi sit up too. "Lets do one
thing...Lets go out on a long drive" He looked at Arohi who looked
confused at his sudden change of behavior. "What? At this time?" She
watched Arjun getting out from the bed and opening the closet. He pulled
out a sleeveless top and a skirt of her and throw that her way. "Wear
it..." Arohi was confused but none the less changed into it. Arjun just
wore a loose t-shirt over his body and grabbed car keys. In the middle
of the night, they left the home and went on a long soothing drive.
Arjun switched on Radio that filled the car with soft music. Arohi was
lost in her thoughts and didn't notice the car entering the forest area.
She got back to her senses after an half an hour drive when Arjun
stopped the car at a side. She looked out from the car. "Why we stopped
here?" She asked and looked at Arjun only to see him having a naughty
smile o his face. "There is a barn, I spotted here few days
back...Guess we can have THAT HAYSTACK you dreamed off" And it was
enough to tell Arohi, where they were heading this time. Blush colored
her cheeks as a shy smile graced her lips. Arjun chuckled at her and get
out of the car to buy that haystack. Surly, this was a perfect moment
to fulfill her fantasies so that with a new day, all she would have on
mind is the beautiful moments and relationship they share.
