two stories of marriage 2

chapter 2

The water at once fell from the showerhead like a waterfall, as ishita let it all in. Her eyes closed, as with every breathe, she felt every drop of water fall on her body. she attempted very hard to let it extinguish the fire inside of her, as she just turned it off, grabbing hold of her towel, wrapping it around herself, slowly sinking down the wall to sit on the floor, no tears, not a sigh of panic, just her silence, everything had just sinked in inside of her. 

                                                                  ***

Dushyant, who had covered his face in tension, as he just stared at his phone, only for it to ring.  he picked it up immediately, standing up with all the courage he could muster, when he heard a news, that just left him mum, with happiness, a huge smile on his face, his chuckle just getting louder, when tears started to come. He rushed through the living room, to the stairs, opening a door, switching on the light, only to find the phone, the only thing being there in the empty room. 

He walked to the phone, grabbing it, sitting beside the bed, still on the call, but left with no response. 

                                                             ***

The door opened, as kavin found ishita, her phone in her hand, which she kept aside, kavin locked the door, getting inside. 

ishita rushed over to kiss him, landing in his arms, just them and the moment. 

                                                             ***

Purvi on the call,standing by the window, had this stoic face, she might have been talking about a botany lesson with that tone. 

"toh maine jasmine ki bachpan ki photos bhi bhej diye hain jismein bhai aur di bhi hain unke saath...go with the narrative of a little girl, the darling of her family, who might have been a modern day princess with everything she had, until, she was just gone, disappeared....what happened to her.." explained purvi. 

"should we go with the working parents not really being there for the children?" questioned back the receiver from the other end of the call.

"yeah....make bhai a rich and powerful man, left powerless in front of his daughter just leaving him like this, and he cannot do anything about it.." explained purvi. 

"like she's just like the audience's daughter?" she confirmed. 

"yep." agreed purvi. 

"well, the graphics would be ready, let's get to the show." she hung up on the call, as purvi looked at the clock, it was just 10 minutes to 9. 

                                                        ***

ishita and kavin lied on the bed, taking a huge sigh, kavin shirtless, revealing those ever the same biceps of hers, and even though the sheet covered her breasts,  they didn't even they needed to be anything else, while she smoked out after taking the cigarette out of her mouth. 

"tumne kitne logon ko fire kiya hai iss saal?" questioned ishita, as kavin was just confused. 

"agar paise ke liye kidnap kiya hota abhi tak firauti maang lete..." stated ishita. 

"abhi toh koi nahi aa raha dimaag mein..." informed kavin. 

"rahul ho sakta hai..." thought ishita. 

"kaun?" questioned kavin. 

"mera assistant tha..." reminded ishita. 

"right, tumne usse bhi nahi chodha tha.." recounted kavin, as ishita just rolled her eyes. 

"agar mere affairs ginke tumhe counting aa rahi hai, you should be grateful.." quipped ishita, as she sat up and put on her underwear. 

"you should leave..." ordered ishita, as kavin got up, frustrated. 

"hmm, shayad purvi ko yaad aa gaya hoon ki uske  woh news channel ke alawa bhi koi zindagi hai uski..." stated kavin, dressing up.

                                                          ***

purvi, walked over to dushyant, seeing him upset, made her relieved, as she walked over to him, with a composed and exaggerated concern. 

"bhai, kuch pata chala?" asked purvi, rubbing his back, sitting beside him. 

"woh apna phone chodke gayi thi..." informed dushyant, as purvi had a wicked smile, she immediately hid. 

"shayad galti se..." suggested purvi, when dushyant shook his head in no. 

"woh bhaagna chahti thi....yeh meri galti thi..." stated dushyant, as she rubbed his shoulder, texting the information she had just found. 

                                                                       ***
