Mridula's POV
Mishka was showing me the estate and the only word which made it out of my mouth was 'amazing'. I can't believe such vivid collection of history in all those pillars.
Soon we passed along the whole estate, just the moment, I was about to return to my room, I found a place which was locked so securely as if someone is trying to conceal something. The sudden surge of curiosity engulfed me, I looked at Mishka who was standing beside me with a blank look. I asked- "What happened?" She nodded her head in disagreement.
I again asked curiously "Why is this door locked? Can't we go inside?"She vigorously nodded her head in a no direction. And dragged me out of that path. I didn't pry much on that topic but the curiosity didn't die within and who knew that it would take us in a new track of our life.
It was dusk, after that incident, Mishka didn't talk much and I could feel the unwanted tension between Mishka and Kush at the dining table- I mean it's not unknown to me. The sudden arise of the thought of Aniket's ignorance towards me pained my heart a little, I don't know why- as I myself went towards the paths of indifference when it came to him. Though the men were silent, us women talked without interruption. I thought of changing the suit I am wearing right now into a pair of comfortable shorts as Aniket wasn't around- He went for some work here, again without bothering much to tell me. Maybe he was avoiding my presence like any other time. I discarded the unwanted thoughts and started scrolling through my Insta account.
Aniket's POV
I was walking down the lanes of Kuldhara, my favourite job whenever I wanted to escape certain things. But this time it didn't work as the notions of the bubbly soul which has taken a part of my room, about which I was protective maybe a little, came into my mind like any other day. How Bubbly and Fun she is and here I am who hates all these yet when Mrs. Singhania does it, not that I don't get annoyed but it has become a habit nowadays. Maybe, she is not like those dramatic and plastic women my father thought will be best for me. Mom has always known me for the best though this decision of hers was unacceptable but.....I sighed and just the moment I was about to return to the estate, I saw Mr. Bhandari our old cook looking at me with a knowing emotion in his eyes. Just the moment, I was about to reach out to him, He swiftly left the place without looking back. Nowadays, I feel so suspicious of some people's behaviour- something has been cooking up there which I don't know but should find out.
Let's see what destiny has in stored for this four lives and unknown Mystery.
