"Abhi, I have purchased a new apartment for you and Ramya to move together near her college," said Janaki.
Abhi and Ramya was shocked, he asked her
" Amma... what was the need for it?? We are all staying together and being happy right?? Then why do we want to live separately from you all??"
"Exactly, we want to stay with you all. I don't want to goto that apartment" said Ramya.
"Listen you both, I decided after so much thought. Abhi... Can't you see how much Ramya suffers from traveling everyday?? She can't come home and study well, she is getting tired, "asked Janaki.
" Aunty that's ok. I'm fine with that" said Ramya, interrupting her MIL.
" I know you will manage but what if your health deteriorates?? What if your marks get less??"asked Janaki.
" Amma... I will help her in studies, no need to go alone for that " Abhi tried to convince his mother.
" My decision is final, today you can go with Ramya to the new apartment and have a look on it once.You both can do the modifications as per your wishes. That apartment is near to her college and also your office, so hopefully you both will be comfortable there" said Janaki and left the place without waiting for their reply.
Akash and Sowmiya too accepted Janaki's words. They asked Abhi and Ramya to move to their new apartment just for sometime. They can come here every weekend.
Abhi and Ramya looked surprised, they were confused at all the family members' words. Abhi was suspicious why his family wanted to send him away with Ramya.
Ramya felt bad for going separately, she cried for leaving Sowmya and going alone, Sowmya consoled her that she can come back here once her final semester completed. Abhi consoled crying Ramya and promised her that they can come back home soon. He asked her to get ready to go out.
They both went to their new apartment to check it. Abhi thought to speak with Akash alone once to know what is happening in their family??
*****************************************
" Amma do you think this will work??" Asked Akash.
" Why not ?? Definitely will work " Said Janaki.
" But they are worried," said Akash.
" That's fine but soon they both will accept each other and live like normal married couples, " said Janaki.
"But they are getting well even now, so why push them alone??" Asked Akash confused.
His mother smiled and said, "I'm giving extra boost up that's it. For them living with us will be different from living alone; they both will depend on each other for everything. That will decrease their distance so, let them go there now. Once I find they are inseparable I will bring them back here. Until then, keep an eye on your brother. I can't trust him, he is too good and naive, so he may decide to do anything wrong. I can't let them both separated"
****************************************
Apartment " Green City" was near Ramya's college, it will be around 10 to 15 minutes to her college from that apartment. It was located in the outskirts of the city but not so far away. It's a kind of mini township with so many blocks and with all the necessary items they can buy inside there.
Their block is in a luxurious premium apartment, their flat is on the 10th floor. It was the last floor too. It comprises 3 BHK rooms, and it has a long balcony and additionally with the terrace garden, though it is a penthouse. The complete view of the township from that place is so beautiful. It looks amazing, peaceful and convenient for everything but, still Abhi was not so happy.
He received a call from a person a few minutes ago, it spoiled his mood completely. Now he stood at the one corner of the terrace and watched the sky with deep thought. The frowns in his forehead shows he was worried about something more.
Ramya checked each and everything in their new home and was excited to see that open terrace garden in heights. She was annoyed to leave their family but impressed with their new flat. She noticed a frown in Abhi's forehead, she wondered what was bothering him a lot. She moved near him and asked,
" Abhi... What is bothering you?? You don't look fine, are you ok??" asked Ramya worried.
Abhi was quiet for sometime, Ramya was worried seeing him like that. She placed her hands on his arms and encircled it, tilted her head on his shoulders then closed her eyes. After sometime slowly he came out of his trance and looked at her face, he felt relaxed seeing her cuddling on him like a small kid. His lips curved, his palms caressed her soft cheeks, he felt her innocence soothing his pain.
Feeling his touch on her face she opened her eyes and smiled seeing him looking normal.
" Are you ok now??" Asked Ramya.
Abhi smiled back and nodded his head positively . She asked him,
" What was bothering you ?? Won't you share with me??"
Abhi became silent now once again, his disappeared frowns appeared again on his forehead. Ramya was hurt to see his negligence to share his problems. She didn't want to force him more, so she decided to go from there.
" It's ok, if you don't want to say, leave it. But please don't bother yourself. Relax whatever the problems, definitely it will be over on time. And I'm...I'm... I'm... with you... " She said the last words and walked away from him.
Abhi took a few moments to realise what she said, his body stiffened seeing her slim figure walking slowly away from him. He felt guilty for hurting her when she was trying to wipe out his pain.
Within a few giant steps he moved to her and blocked her way. She was surprised at his sudden act, her eyes showing an unknown pain. He looked at her restlessly and asked her,
" Shall I hug you once?? "
Her eyes widened in surprise, she forgot to blink for a moment. She didn't react at that time. She became shy and looked down.
He understood her hesitation and continued to say, " Only if you are ok... otherwise I won't touch you. Don't worry ". He waited for her reply tensely.
She looked at his intense eyes and read an unknown pain, she can't take it further. She couldn't see him hurt, so she smiled and acknowledged her reply through her eyes and smile.
He got his answer and instantly hugged her tightly, it was a bone crush hug. She hugged him back and wrapped her arms around him gently. This was the first time they both were hugging so close with their consent.
Ramya was shy, Abhi felt peace in their hug, his hands encircled her slender body more tightly, his pain and insecurity made him hug her more and more tighter, even though he was not ready to let air between them. He thrusted his face on her shoulders and inhaled her fragrance, it soothes his pain.
On the other side Ramya was in different world, though his tight hug hurts her she was least bothered about that. Only thing was in her mind was that moment, they were together so, she was ecstatic.
Breaking her dreamworld she heard sniffles from Abhi. She was shocked and tried to break their hug, but it was not fruitful. He didn't let her do that, she was panicked and tried to ask him the reason, but she was stopped by him
" Ramya please stay like this for some more time and don't ask me anything right now. I don't want to talk about those bitter things which I was trying hard to forget for years. I need you, I need this moment with you, you are soothing my heart ache, please don't break it.... please...." said Abhi while sobbing.
Ramya was stunned but she didn't try to detangle their hug, her hands caressed his back and hugged him more tightly than before. She pressed her face on his hard core chest and closed her eyes. She could feel his pain.
To Be Continued...
