Author's Pov:
Arjun tried to calm Vrinda. He didn't try to ask her what she was worried about. He made her sit on the chair and handed her a glass of water. She gulped it down quickly and stayed calm for some time.
Arjun:
" Are you alright?"
Vrinda :
" Ya. Thank you. "
Arjun:
" Vrinda, never remove this chain from your neck under any circumstances. Let this chain be with you all the time. You believe in your God, right. So he would protect you from every danger. "
Vrinda just said a thank you to him but didn't pay any attention to his words. That was the gift from her husband and it was the best gift which she had ever received so far. She would cherish it throughout her life. But what Arjun said to her had an inner meaning.
It was true that Arjun was never interested in designing jewelry. But for the first time in his life, he designed the chain with a pendant. The pendant can't be detached from the chain. The best part is that the pendant has a hidden camera attached to it, and he soldered it very carefully. Thanks to his uncle, who advised him to monitor Vrinda 's moments carefully.
When she tried wearing the chain, Arjun helped her and fixed the tracker to the chain. He did it quickly without the notice of Vrinda. They were seated in their respective chairs.
Arjun pushed another document towards Vrinda. He expected her to open and read it because those were the divorce agreements. While pushing them towards Vrinda he mentioned that those papers were the separation agreement.
Arjun:
" Vrinda, my last gift on your birthday. The divorce agreement which you asked for. You can go through the papers and let me know if any clauses are to be added. "
But to his surprise, Vrinda didn't open those papers. She kept them aside. She started looking at her palm without replying to anything. Arjun felt strange seeing her behavior. It's she who initiated the proposal, and now, when she got what she wanted, she was behaving as if she was not bothered about those papers. He couldn't control his curiosity, so he asked her directly.
Arjun:
" Won't you see what is in those papers. Don't you want you to know about the alimony I am giving you after our divorce? "
Vrinda:
" No. I don't need any alimony. I have a job for my livelihood, and we are about to start the jewelry business. So, I will be getting paid for my hard work. I trust you. "
Arjun:
" I don't know whether I should laugh or cry. You trust me with those papers but you don't trust the promises which I made in front of God and the whole village when I married you. "
Vrinda had no answer to his question. She stayed silent. Arjun didn't continue the conversation further. They made their way home.
Both of them were restless throughout the night. They don't know why destiny is planning a wicked game with their lives.
The next day, Vrinda took a day off in her office. She called the person who was behind all her sorrow. He asked her to meet him in person at the place where she saw him for the first time. What she was not aware of is that Arjun is busy tracking her call. She started to her destination. When she saw the person, she asked him the question which had been bothering her for so long.
