Slightly Wicked

Part Two

Maya gets out of the taxi after paying. Then she starts collecting her bags from the boot.

"Maya!" Sanjh calls her as she hurried to her.

"Sanjh!" Maya says in relief as she hugged her. "Thank you so much for letting me stay here."

"You are always welcome here." Sanjh tells her as she hugged her. "Come inside."

Maya nods and turns to pick her bag when she notices Bittuji spying on her. Furiously dumping her bag, she walks towards him.

"When you are spying on me, at least be smart enough to stay hidden!" Maya tells him catching him red-handed.

"I wasn't try to hide from you." Bittu tells her.

"Then?" Maya asks surprised. She had assumed that RK had sent Bittuji to watch her and report to him.

"RK Sir told me to make sure you knew that I was watching you."

"Really?" Maya asks shocked.

"I don't know why he wanted me to get scolding from you." Bittu tells her sadly.

Maya sighs realizing. "That is not what he wanted."

"Then?"

"He wanted me to know that he is watching me. that he has his eyes on me!" Maya tells him pissed. "You go back."

"I can't do that." Bittu tells her.

There was no use, Maya knew, RK would blast the poor man and send him again, and maybe another 2 more. "How many are there with you?"

"9."

"10 people watching me?" Maya asks outraged.

"Sir's order." Bittu tells her shrugging.

"Fine!" Maya turns to walk off.

"You are supposed to arrange for our stay." Bittu informs her.

"Your sir's order?" Maya asks him incredulously.

"Yes."

"Tell him to take care of it himself!" Maya tells him pissed.

"But madam." Bittu says as he pouts.

"GOD! He is telling you to pout at me, now?" Maya asks outraged.

"Sir's order." Bittu tells her shrugging guiltily.

"God!" Maya angrily says as she put up her hand. "I am not responsible for you all."

"Sir told us if that is the case to camp outside Sanjh's home."

"You already told him, I am here?" Maya asks him, feeling betrayed.

"No, he told me this is where you would come."

Damnit! Didn't she get a reprieve from RK? How the hell does he know everything about her?

"Do whatever you want!" Maya tells him and turns to walk off.

"Thank you, madam. Will you be going out today?"

"If I feel like it then I would!" Maya tells him furiously then she quickly starts feeling guilty. Bittuji had been her bodyguard for years and he didn't deserve her wrath for RK's sins. "I am sorry, Bittuji. I don't think I'll be going out."

"Okay, madam." Bittu tells her smiling forgiving her for her outburst.

Maya was pouring her heart out to Sanjh when Sanjh's mother walks into their room frowning.
