....... AND THEN SHE FINALLY SAID IT
When we returned back later that
day from the hospital, no one asked
me any questions. Riddhima seemed
slightly dizzy due to loss of blood and
mom made her sleep in our room.
Her eyes sought me out throughout
the day, but I was too ashamed of
myself to come infront of her. Rahul
seemed to be communicating non-
verbally with mom and uncle. I have
seen them blinking their eyes and
nodding their heads at each other
one too many times and the fact that
they didn't even try to hide it from
me confused me as to what was
happening around me, but I cared
less.
"I booked our tickets for the flight at
7.30 in the night." Rahul announced
sitting beside me on the couch,
uncle and mom following him close
behind.
I squirmed when they started staring
at me. "I asked the doctor again. She
said that it is fine for Riddhima to
travel." I mumbled nothing else to
say. "I talked to her HR and managed
to get a leave for a month until she
is fine." I added.
"Does Riddhima know?" Uncle asked
me.
"I am sure she would be happy to
come to Bangalore." I said, in a small
voice.
"Armaan, don't you think its high
time assuming what she would be
happy with?" Mom said in a deathly
calm voice.
I was taken aback at the harshness in
mom's voice.
"Did you talk to her about it?" Uncle
tried, once again.
And I lost it. "Don't you see, I am
failing her in some way or the other.
I am hurting her in the process of
dealing with my own insecurities and
complexities. Doctor told me that
Riddhima mentioned having heavy
morning sickness last few weeks. I
didn't even know about it. I wasn't
even there to share her happiness or
fears. Hell, I don't even know if she
wants to stay with me after all I have
