Part 19

First Riddhima was trying to make him understand it and now hearing Nikki words, Armaan understood that it was enough torturing himself for keeping away from his only sibling, his only sister... So deciding to talk Nikki at night, Armaan zoom off towards the office as his mind was clouded with how to talk his sister when they go back to home...

MALLIK MANSION

Riddhima was in her room to rest for sometimes before going to cook lunch for her family, as Armaan as make a mess of the drawer while in search of his files, Riddhima first arrange it before climbing on the bed holding her favorite novel to kill time because she knows she wouldn't be able to sleep at this time...

Riddhima make herself comfortable and was just about to start her novel when she heard her mobile buzzing on side table of the bed... Thinking who it might be at this time as just few minutes ago Armaan and Nikki left, Riddhima check the caller to see her mother name flashing...

'Ma...' Riddhima answer as quickly as she could...

'Good morning bacchi, bohot khush lag rahe ho... Kaise ho...???' Padma asked hearing Riddhima cheerful voice...

'Tik hun ma, aap kaise ho... Aur papa, kaha hai...???' Riddhima asked...

'Hum bhi acche hai, tumhare papa hospital gaye hai... Tum kiya kar rahe ho, araam toh kar rahe ho na...' Padma asked...

'Haan ma, bas bed pe hun... Ghar par rehkar kiya kaam kar sakta hun... Kuch din tak abhi rest hi toh karna hai...' Riddhima said in a complain tone...

'Hmm lagta hai mera beta bohot acche se khayal rakh raha hai tumhari...' Padma said...

'Aapki beta paagal hogaya hai, mujhe kuch karne nehi dete...' Riddhima said...

'Accha hai, kyunki tumhe itni jaldi itna kaam nehi karna chahiyeh bacche... Abhi din hi kitna huva hai, tumhari body bohot weak hai issiliye tumhe rest ki bohot zarurat hai... Waise bhi servants haina kaam karne ke liye, tumhe karne ki kya zarurat...' Padma said...

'Ma, main sab kaam ki baat nhi kar rahi hun... Main toh bas khana bana na chahti hun sabke liye... Mere hote huve kyun servants ke haat ka khana khilaun apne family koh...' Riddhima said...

'Main bohot khush hun, tum sabke baare mein itna sochte ho Riddhi... Lekin apne baare mein bhi tohda socho, puri tarah tik nehi hogi toh kaise tum pehle ke tarah apni responsibilities utaenge...'Padma said...

'Ma please, ab aap lecture mat doh... Subah subah woh aapki beta mujhe bohot suna kar gaye hai...' Riddhima said...

'Kyunki pyar se samjha ke tujhe koi asar padti nehi na...' Padma said...

'Haan haan, aap lo uska side... Lekin yeh mat bhulna, aap uske side pe ho toh papa mere side pe hai... Not only papa, even dad and kido is also on my side...' Riddhima said smiling...

'Woh toh hai, waise Armaan and Nikki ke beech sab tik hai...???' Padma asked...

Riddhima smile fade remembering the cold behavior being exchanged between brother and sister... When Riddhima suddenly got quiet, Padma understood that nothing must have changed between them... It was Padma, who has witness the cold behavior when Riddhima was in hospital...

Padma knows that Riddhima would handle it very well but she was very concern about them... They are like her own child and seeing them like that, it was making her feel bad that thinking how long it would go like that because it was creating so much distance between them which isn't good for their relation...

'Ma, aaj maine dono koh saath mein bhej diya... Armaan bohot pareshan ho raha tha Kido ke saath akele jaane ke liye... Maine Armaan koh samjhane ki koshish ki bhai behen ke rishte ke baare mein, I just hope he talk to her or just once listen to her...' Riddhima said...

'Aapne apne tarafse koshish ki na bacche, baaki sab god pe chod doh... Woh sab tik kardenge, kyunki woh jaante hai na Armaan galat hai aur na Nikki... Dono bhi apne apne jhaga sahi tha, bas un dono koh clear karne ki koshish karna chahiyeh tha... Koi baat nehi, tab nehi toh abhi sahi... Bas dono bacche pehle ke tarah khushi khushi rahe saath...' Padma said...

'I hope so too ma, dono bohot takleef mein hai ek dusre se dur hokar... Nikki bohot ro rahi thi subah jab maine usse baat ki, aur Armaan... Aap jaante haina, Armaan itni aasaani se apne dard aur takleef kissi ke saamne zaahir nehi karenge...' Riddhima said...

'Bohot acche se jaanti hun, jo ek month maine uske saath bitaya, maine usse bohot acche se jaan chuka hun... Bohot pyara baccha hai, apnon se bohot pyar karta hai...' Padma said...

'Thank you ma...' Riddhima whisper as tears form in her eyes...
