At the cottage
Ranvijay Sahay's PA cum manager, Rajiv, reached the after some time to the cottage, he found his boss was enjoying his drink sitting in the bar, which is in the corner of the living room.
"Sir all arranged for your security, knowing about your visit to Nainital. Many business associates from nearby places and political leaders invited you to their place as a guest so that they get a chance to come in your good books ."
Ranvijay doesn't reply so the PA again started, "don't worry sir, I reasonably deny them, I told them that you are here for some personal reasons and they should respect your privacy ."
" Rajiv, just find that girl" ranvijay ordered him.
" Sure sir " Rajiv replies with his usual answer then it struck him that he is asking to find some girl no..it must be file but I must have heard it wrong
Rajiv was P A to ranvijay for last 10 years, he never saw him with any girl, not even talk about any women so he was sure that he heard something wrong. But he wants to confirm about the file as which file precisely his boss need.
" Which file sir "
Ranvijay glared at him and shouted while throwing the whiskey glass on the floor.
"Not file you fool, I said girl, girl, did you get it this time "
Rajiv was trembling in fear, he was thanking his stars that he is still breathing after doing this mistake, so he composed himself and asked
"Sorry sir,..... but which girl...
.. imean ."
"When I entered the cottage a girl was playing a tune on that piano but she ran away as soon as she saw me ."
" Oh ... okay sir, I just ask the cottage staff ."
" Hmmm "
Rajiv ran for his life and started interviewing the staff but everyone denied that they ever saw a girl near the cottage, as its the private property so nobody enters here without the caretaker's knowledge.
On the other hand, when the caretaker, the old couple returned from the hospital, they found that the special guest of kauls already arrived .when Rajiv call them to ask about some girl who played the piano in the cottage.
The couple understood that he is talking about aarohi. But seeing so much security around, with guns, they understood that the guest must be some dangerous people so for aarohi 's sake and to keep their job safe. They lied to Rajiv that the only woman in this cottage is his wife who is 60 plus in age.
Rajiv laughed on the way back to ranvijay.
"Sometimes the boss is so silly, see he is saying a 60-year-old lady, girl ."( Poor Rajiv ).
He turned back and called the old women to follow him.
Ranvijay was still seated on the barstool and reminded of the girl's beautiful features in his mind. Suddenly he heard Rajiv saying
" she is here sir "
Ranjivay's s heartbeat increased to see his angle again, he slowly turned around and look at the old woman beside Rajiv who was greeting him by joining her hands.
" Where, where is she "he glared at Rajiv.
" Here see this is the only woman who enters the cottage " he stated with confidence.
Ranvijay dismissed the maid then he came in long strides toward Rajiv and grabbed him with his collar.
" Today is your last day on this planet, you fool! dont you know the difference between a girl and an old woman I told you that she was playing a tune on the piano, didnt I hmm? So you think that buddhi amma ( old lady )will play the piano, Haan?
Ranvijay was irritated and furious with Rajiv, it was the first time he was fascinated by someone and this moron Rajiv is not helping him to find the girl.
Rajiv closed his eyes seeing him so furious, he started reciting hanuman's Chalisa in his mind as a gunshot can be heard at any time, but to his surprise ranvijay left his collar and said to him in a threatening tone.
" I dont care, how many sources you have to take but I want you to find out this girl at any cost, no mistakes Rajiv,"
Ranvijay shouted in high pitch.
" Yes.... yes sir " Rajiv ran outside to call the only one person who can calm down this angry bull aka his boss. Rajiv decided to offer prasad to Hanumanji for saving his life.
" Hello, neeraj sir, sir please come to Nainital, as boss ... I think .. he needs a psychiatrist badly ... as he is telling me to find a girl who plays the piano ."Rajiv was so scared that his voice was shaking badly.
" What? ... come again ... repeat what you said ?... ranvijay is demanding what? " Neeraj shah the CEO of ruby jewels which is a famous diamond jewellery brand and the only friend to ranvijay was shocked to know that his saint-like friend is demanding a girl.
" Sir see you also not believed na, same did I, please sir please come to Nainital . Nahin to main nahi bachunga" ( or else I will not be alive anymore )
Neeraj understood that his friend needs him so he agreed ., but as he was in Singapore on a business trip so he will take time to reach there.
"Ok I am leaving tonight, I will reach there tomorrow evening, but listen to me carefully, you should take care of this matter till I reached, dont make ranvijay angrier .ok"
"Ok sir thank you"
Aarohi's escape
Aarohi pushed ranvijay with force and ran out of the cottage, she doesn't even turn back to see if he is following her...
As she knows all shortcuts on her way back to her house. She reached Vashisth villa safely ., but after so much running, she was in a bad condition. Her clothes were having mud stains ., her hair became messy, and she was panting badly to catch her normal breathing.
That time only vaidehi was present near the entrance, seeing aarohi like this vaidehi quickly took her to her room she doesn't want the relatives to talk ill about aarohi.
Vaidehi make her settle on the bed and gave her water, aarohi drank the whole glass in one go.
"What happened why are you .. "
" I am fine just a mad dog was running behind me so I have to run till home"
.
"Ok " her answer was not convincing, but she didn't ask anything more.
After yesterday night's incident, she doesn't want to bother arohi, to face her wrath again.
" You take rest, I just send your lunch in the room only " vaidehi stated.
"Hmm' she nodded in yes
After lunch, she took a nap as she was tired from so much after running. It was the first time that somebody dared to behave with her like that .she cursed that" Qutub Minar " in her mind with some colourful words.
At night asawari entered her room with dinner plates.
"I thought from tomorrow the functions will start, so I will not have time to spend with you, "asawari told her smiling.
Aarohi nodded and started having her food.
After dinner asawari called the maids and remove the dirty plates and ordered them to bring ice cream.
Aarohi was just looking at her smiling face and trying to make her comfortable.
" Nitin is a nice guy, I am sure he will keep you happy "aarohi gave her opinion.
" I know, after the Roka, we started chatting on phone and then calling each other. He always takes care of me and thinks about my comfort, and my choices first. Aarohi I dont know what love is but I am happy with Nitin, and I hope we both will be happy like this in future too ."asawari stated thinking about veer.
"It's good that you never loved anyone as look at me, what I got after falling in love. Love is pain didi, you know every night I see him blaming me for my mistake " tears started flowing from her eyes.
Asawari was looking at her broken sister, she hugged aarohi
" No baccha, never say this you know it was destiny not your mistake, you didnt do anything trust me "
" Easy to say didi, from the last two years I am living every minute in pain. I just become like a rock didi, which doesn't want to feel any emotion or any pain.
I know didi I never deserved to be loved ". arohi said while crying
.
"We cannot change the past arohi but we have our future to look for
I want to request you something tomorrow is my sangeet please just last time be my aarohi who we lost two years back Just last time I want to see you as your old self. So that I can start my new life happily after seeing your old self for once in my memories at least " asawari requested.
'It's late didi you should sleep now, goodnight " aarohi started wiping her tears.
" Goodnight "asawari replied to her.
After asawari left the room, Aarohi got up from the bed and open the cupboard. She pull out a backpack from the cupboard which was kept hidden in the trolley bag
With trembling hands, she opened the zip of the bag and took out a bridal lehenga and a sweatshirt, she touched the lehenga first then she slowly touched the shirt as she wanted to feel his touch .she hugged the shirt close to her chest and cried out, the name which means the world to her love.
