Riansh FF: BROKEN

Chapter 4

If you have a chance to throw a dice, throw it without hesitation.

The moment you throw it, you will get to advance at least one square.

"won't leave you now" echoed Vansh's head again. Did he just sense a threat there wondered Vansh or was it his imagination? Thinking so he followed her to their room.

Riddhima was back in their (?) room. Her room. Their room. So many memories yet now they all look like a scene from a big well-orchestrated play and indeed it was whose director and actor was her husband (thought Riddhima with a sad chuckle).

The place where they shared many moments. From day one from when he put a gun on her head to the day when he said I will be staying in his heart forever. But this room is not the same or was it her. Things have changed so did the feelings. Now it's a room of a person who asks for loyalty and trust but forgets to give the same.

Vansh who has followed her to their room leaned on the door frame and observed her while she was looking around the room.

Vansh (smirking): Seems like you missed this place or maybe me?

Hearing his voice Ridhima came out of her thoughts. For a moment her eyes hardened but quickly recovering she turned around and with a smile says

Riddhima: Oh you have no idea how much I have thought about you in these past two months.

Said Riddhima with an undertone edge but stopped before Vansh can detect it.

Vansh (smirking inwardly): Really? Good to hear that but somehow unable to believe it sweetheart

said Vansh with an amused voice.

Understanding what he was indicating and trying to do Riddhima turns back and asks innocently,

Riddhima: Really? And why is so?

Vansh: Well for the starters you left without my knowledge on a medical camp that you never mentioned to me before, then no calls or messages. Nothing. You see I felt ignored.

Riddhima: Wow...husband (with surprise in her voice) did you miss me that much?

Vansh: (rolling his eyes inwardly thought) Miss? You? My foot with a smirk Oh sweetheart you started to make me doubt you. Kahin firse meri jasoosi or some new plans. (said Vansh with a drawl in his voice)

Riddhima: And that's why you sent Angre to get information about me to confirm if I lied or indeed I went for the camp? So what did you get to know?

Vansh stayed silent seeing Riddhima continued

Ridhima: It's nothing like that. I was just busy with some new treatments that I am planning for Sia. You see, I came to this house to treat Sia. Other than treating Sia, I think I have done everything. Married you, saved you from dying, arranged marriage for Ishani and Angre, above all, every week at least 4-5 times I stood at the gates of death. Therefore, after a lot of thinking over the past two months, I realized one should do the work which they specialized. I'm good at treating patients. So that's what I will do, treat everyone.

Vansh (confusedly): Everyone?

Ridhima: Uff husband! I mean, I will treat Sia and also the one I should, you see in case of an emergency everyone needs a Doctor right?? Besides I'm a Doctor. I hope, you didn't forget that.

Vansh can sense her sarcasm in her talks. He is the master of playing with the words while he cannot see someone doing the same with him. And when that someone is Ridhima, no he cannot allow that. His ego would not allow him to be defeated in this game of wits.
