Kalam

Chapter 22

Chaos.

That is a word that would perfectly describe the lives of the people living in Rajvansh villa.

Especially four lives that are entangled in the web of misunderstandings and miscommunication. That is first step to a failed marriage. And a failed marriage leads to separation and ultimately divorce.

Atleast that is what Ruhanika read when she googled 'what would happen if neither she or her husband talk after a fight'. Well divorce seemed like a stretch. Surely her husband won't just divorce her because he is frustrated. Or will he?

No he won't. Nobody else will deal with his moody and dramatic ass.

Aryan on the other hand felt guilty. He shouldn't have yelled at her. She isn't some punching bag that exists to take his blows. She is his wife, and is to be treated like a queen. And here he is acting like a jerk. But before he could go and apologize, he got a call from his manager asking about the progress of the songs and gave him a full on lecture about how he has started neglecting his career after his marriage.

And even though Aryan did not want to believe this, a part of him was doubtful. He has always had trouble with writing songs but he somehow always pulled something almost a month before his deadline but this time, naah. He hasn't even got half of it done yet. But he is skeptical. Is it because of his marriage? Or is this something else?

Every person makes mistakes but to cover them up they pass the blame. Aryan needed someone to blame for his lack of concentration so it was easy to blame Ruhanika.

Swadheenta has taken a day off. It was actually Sunday so it wasn't like she was doing Ayaan a favor. He didn't want to talk to her. He was hurt by her words. Just because he didn't start his own company does not mean he doesn't work hard.

She however was stubborn. A part of her knew she was wrong but she didn't want to apologize first. She doesn't even know if Ayaan is wrong in this situation but she doesn't dwell on it.

All the elders are going out for a dinner with their business associate, who is also good friends with Yashwardhan Rajvansh. They've given Ayaan, Aryan, Swadheenta and Ruhanika the duty to finalize a place and book the hotel for Meera and Advitya's surprise trip, as they only have two weeks left to the anniversary.

Being the only people in the house, all four of them sat in the giant living hall of the mansion to discuss everything. "We don't need to book plane tickets, bhaiya has his very own private jet and we just have to talk to his pilot. So now that is out of the way, where should we send them?"

Everyone nodded with Ayaan's words and started brainstorming good places for such trips.

"Paris?"

"They've been there."

"Switzerland?"

"It's too cold, Meera bhabhi hates cold."

"How do you know that?" Swadheenta raised her eyebrow at Ayaan's question.

"She told me that a few days ago, when I came back from the office and we were talking about how the weather in Delhi will change soon."

"So you apparently have time for everyone but me. Good to know." Ayaan mumbled but Swadheenta heard it anyway and that irritated her. "For God's sake Ayaan, how can you connect everything to yourself? I am here right? I am sitting here and discussing this with all of you, then what else do you want?"

"I want you to not gloat about it. You're not doing us a favor by not working on a Sunday Swadheenta, so please don't rub it in my face." Aryan and Ruhanika were looking at these two wide eyed as they were screaming so loud that even the neighbors must have heard them. Their screaming match was in full swing when Ruhanika leaned a little towards Aryan.
