Third Person Perspective
“Krishna ji ki asim kripa hain jo aap in sidhiyo par chadkar yaha tak unki ashirwad lene aa sakey.” The priest spoke up as he drew the tilak in their forehead while holding the aarti thaali.
“Pandit ji.. this tilak?” Rai asked. “I mean the ritual completed?”
“ Many people comes here to offer their prayers but often fear climbing up the stairs. Today's generation don't believe in this kinda rituals but if we look back it has a depth meaning.” The priest handed a yellow flower from the feet of the RadhaKrishn idol.
“By climbing up the stairs, you proved that your love is constant.” The priest smiled at them.
Rai gave a smile back.
“Prince you don't have to believe in all these... Let's go.” Rai whispered him.Keshav nodded and went down to the family.
“Rai have you taken the blessings ?” Vasanti hopefully asked looking at the couple. She sighed when Rai replied with a positive nod.
“Umm Can I say something?” Monica came out from nowhere.
“Anyways you would tell even if we don't want.. say it..” Vasanti teased her.
Monica blushed and pressed her lips. Then she took a deep breath and held Basant's hand firmly. “The thing is... I'm pregnant!” she squealed and hugged her husband.
Vasanti and Vasudev looked at each other. While Anjani just shifted her gaze to the couple who were looking
weird. “Rai..Keshav what happened to both of you.. Aren't you both happy about them?. Anjani asked them.“No... Ajji... I'm really very happy the thing is I'm very tired today...” Rai explained.
“You are right let's go to palace. You both have to return tomorrow in Bengalore right?” She hurried them to return the return the palace first.
It was again a silent drive.
More she looked his face she remembered the photo. It was the same girl who yelled at her on her first day. Miss Chahat. Her chain of thoughts broke when she heard his cold voice saying, “ Rai for yesterday, I hope you remembered it...” Rai nodded.
“The thing is it's not good to touch my things without my permission... You can do anything... I am helping you bit don't try to impress me nor expect anything from me.. I'm different... So it would be healthier so I'm saying this... Rai...from now on we are not friends.”Rai chuckled softly and defended herself.
“For your kind information I didn't peeped your cupboard I was just pulling my clothes from the cupboard but unintentionally I got your shirt.” Rai defended herself. “As then I really appreciated the fabric I didn't knew that you would scold me for keeping that shirt messed up. Still I'm sorry” She sighed.
“If you still think I'm breaking up with my friendship with you... Then you are wrong.. I didn't shaker your hand that day to break the bond so early and so easily... And it's very okay to accept that intentionally or unintentionally it was my mistake for that I'm sorry but it's not a matter that you will burn our friendship.” She took out a chewing gum from her purse and put it into her mouth.
“This girl is so good at savage... Drama queen..” He muttered.
“Well will you refresh your breathe? You can have this chewing gum....”
Keshav was about to take the chewing gum but she took it back.
“Well you are already refreshed.. you don't need this...” She blinked her eyes at him.Keshav sheepishly smiled at her... “No way! This girl...” he thought.
They both discontinued their conversation.
************************
“Hello? I'm Chahat Deshmukh speaking from Singhania Productions..” Chahat spoke up.“Hello?” She again asked but didn't got any response.
“Hello... Am I audible... Mam/Sir?” still she didn't got any response.
She shrugged off the call thinking it might be some network issue.
She sipped her coffee and was checking the employees attendence.
She suddenly stopped at the name ‘Rai Kapoor’.
“Why I think I have heard her somewhere earlier..” she thought.
“I did really wrong.. I should shout at her..that day but she was late that's why I shouted at her...” She kept thinking of her. But after sometime the same caller called her.“Hello? This is Chahat Deshmukh from Singhania Productions.. ” She introduced.
“Ma'am earlier we are really sorry... the network wasn't stable that's why our voice was inaudible.” a man spoke from the other side..
“Our boss agreed at your proposal.. but before that he said that it would be nicer if he could talk about it directly for real..” He told.
“Oh.. it's really good. But can you talk to your Boss that if he could talk after a week... The thing is Mr Keshav Singhania is not at station currently...” She told him.
“No Ma'am for your kind information you are talking to his secretary, and most probably he doesn't have any free time from tomorrow.. he has more busy schedules..Hope you could find a solution..Thank you.” he ended up the call before letting her to speak further.
She clutched her hairs at dissatisfaction...“I didn't know evem his name how will I manage this..”.
She was about to dial Keshav but hesitated... so she thought to mail him instead..
After a second she sent the mail, she got a reply
~Keshav Singhania
Miss Chahat instead of me you could take some documents proving I have sent you.. So it's better you to talk with him instead of me .. as you already know I'm busier infact MORE BUSIER THAN HIM.She took out some printouts and shut her computer off.
While walking towards the corridor, she bumped with a manly figure...“ Hey Miss Chahat.. Are you okay?” Angad furrowed his brow seeing his colleague all tensed.
“No I'm not fine at all... I'm gonna become 30 very soon still didn't got any boyfriend.. no kids .. wrinkles are increasing... I'm becoming an oldie... See I got fine lines.. dark circles.. becoming uglier day by day... You still expect I'm fine?” she blankly answered.
Angad hummed. “Miss Chahat let's have a dinner tonight....” he offered her to lit up her mood.
“Together?” she asked.
Angad nodded. “Well you are welcome it's not all alone but I'm going to see my step brother so you can come along.” he smiled and walked past off her.
But he stopped and back stepped to her.. “I guarantee you , after meeting my brother you will be shocked... He is very handsome than me.. All the best!” he whispered and winked at her.Chahat chuckled at disbelief and walked off the office.
