Rishmi one shots collection

The game of love

You would never realize the true value of anything still you are on the verge of losing it or you have completely lost it virendra oberoi often used to tell his son but Rishi never used to take his words seriously till this moment. He had his wife dancing in his arms on the dance floor looking eternal as she was ever and she was smiling radiantly but only he knew how fake was her smile was, how fake everything actually was and for the very first time he regretted his actions after the marriage. He should have not been harsh towards her and throw the fact on her face that this marriage was done only looking at her horoscope. He had even smiled at her heart broken face and walked away leaving her to cry alone. He had not known then in the end he would be left with more pain.
His thoughts broke when he hears the applauding from the people out including his family who already knew how is realtionship is actually with lakshmi. Lakshmi acted to be shy and made that as a excuse to walk away from him. Off course why would she ever want to be with him, she had clearly stated few hours ago how much she hated him and how happy she was that whatever problem he had in his horoscope had gotten solved and now she had no obligation to stay in this marriage. She had even removed her suitcase and started doing her packing, her tickets to punjab was still laid safe in the drawer of their room. His heart thumped in fear everytime he heard her talking on Phone with her sisters assuring them she would be back in punjab.
" Rishi" his father patted him on shoulder gaining his attention.
" Yes dad" rishi replies to his father.
" I hope you know that she is leaving tomorrow" his heart dropped at the information.
" Lakshmi is going back tomorrow to punjab and she has signed the divorce papers too" his father reveals. Rishi grasped the information for a moment before he rushed in hurry towards his room. His father smirked at Rishi's reaction to the news and raised his glass in direction of his wife indicating their plan was working. Neelam nods at him and continues talking with the guest.

Lakshmi sighed in relief when she finally closed her suitcase. She was done with her packing and tomorrow she would be free from this suffocating realtionship as well. She clutches her mangalsutra tightly for a moment reminiscing her moments with Rishi but removes it from her neck quickly and places it on the dressing table when she remembers how he had deceived her and swallowes her tears. She yelps when she is held by her elbow and forced to turn around, she looks surprised to see it was rishi who did that.
" Are you leaving tomorrow?" He asks her, as he moved closer to her trapping her between the dresing table and himself.
" Yes" she simply informs and tries to move away but Rishi stood rooted to the place.
" Don't leave" he says to her "stay here with me"
Lakshmi looked confused for a moment, " what other motive do you have now?!"
Her words stung him painfully than he accepted to but he shrugs it off and cups her face baffling her off. Lakshmi looks at him fearful with his sudden gesture. She could deal with rude rishi but not this one.
" There is no other motive, I love you" he confesses honestly. Lakshmi slowly realizes that the one month soft version of Rishi she witnessed who kept giving her his lovely dovey glances was for this motive only. Her face hardernes
She snaps out of her thoughts and shoves his hands away from her face and chuckles, " you think I will fall for this all over again, you think you can fool me all over again"
She shakes her head and looks at him," I will never trust you again", she tries to push him away so that she can sleep and almost surprises him by her strength but he clasps her hand and pulls her closer to him.
He goes down on his knees and kisses her fingertips , "I really love you and I'm sorry. Please give me one more chance. I promise you that you will not regret this"
Lakshmi almost melts but remembers he had done this last time to trap her and she would be a fool if she falls for the same again, she shakes her head stubbornly and yanks her hand from him.
" I hate you" she spat out " sometimes I feel I would have been better marrying off that Balwinder atleast he was leech from the front not like you hiding in the mask"
Rishi clinched his fists and looks at her dangerously before he pins her to the wall dragging her by her elbow harshly, " don't compare ever compare him with me"
Lakshmi nods fearfully, " please leave me" she whimpers. Realizing that she is still afraid of him, he hits his fists against the wall because of frustration. She closes her eyes tightly in fear afraid and opens her eyes after few minutes after finding herself alone in the room. Steading her breathing, she slips herself under the bed covers and closes her eyes forcing herself to sleep before he comes again to harass her.

The next morning when she wakes up, she finds the other side of bed empty. Relieved that she did not have to deal with him before leaving, she pulled out her suitcase and another bag where she had kept all the gifts Rishi's family had given her, lakshmi had no intentions of taking the costly gifts with her, she was going to return them back to them. She was sorting her last moment things when a tensed neelam and virendra entered the room.
" Lakshmi" Neelam called her, lakshmi turns towards her.
" Kya hua" she asked looking at their tensed faces and neelam speaks up how the pandit had done a mistake in looking into Rishi's horoscope yesterday, Rishi's horoscope problem was still intact and she had to stay. By the end of the revealation, Neelam Apologizes to lakshmi again and again for giving her hope. Lakshmi gives her a small smile assuring that it was alright and she would not go till whatever problem Rishi's horoscope has been solved. both Neelam and virendra 's looked grateful glance and blessed her before they left.

Later when lakshmi was putting back her things in the cupboard, rishi walked in with smug smile on his face.
" I'm very saddened to hear you're not leaving" he says to her " but if you miss your sisters you can call them here"
Lakshmi glared at him," you think I don't know you're the reason I'm not leaving"
" Yes, you're absolutely right" Rishi admits smirking. Lakshmi was appalled by his audacity.
" You're disgusting" she snapped at him, her eyes were flashing with anger. She points her index finger closing her palm warningly at him," I will expose you"
Her threats did not frighten him, instead he smiled mysteriously making his way closer to her much to her annoyance and discomfort.
" You can try all you want" rishi drawled, he caresses her face slowly trying to trace every feature of her face. Lakshmi trembles in his touch and pushes him away with all her strength and looks at him warningly. Rishi shakes his head chuckling not at all unnerved by her warning glances, " I love you more when you act fiesty and all flared up" he says. She frowns but presses her lips together not replying to him and giving him more attention, she ignores him and continues her unpacking work muttering curses under her breath.
" I will never let you go" his husky voice sends shivers down her spine and she controls her urgue to smack him hardly on his face. Rishi smirks as he watches Lakshmi's clenched fists, he was satisfied with rilling up her for now and will deal with rest of the things when he will back.
" I will have to leave now, we will continue our fight when I'm back" he says teasingly and walks away ignoring Lakshmi's hissings.
Lakshmi sits on the bed as soon as Rishi left the room not accepting defeat and formulating a new plan so she can escape him. Well two can play the game.
