Unholy Obsession

Hidden Pain

Until now, both two's filled tears started flowing from their eyes!

When Rajive came up with the table trolley and saw them crying. So, for once sadness appeared in his eyes too. But for the instant of phase, he controlled it and tried to make himself look good in front of them.

Rajive (acts relaxingly): "Come on guys, not again! I really fade up with you two. Have you felt that much satisfaction in acting this stupid melodrama, again....and again...! At least, tried to fill some sort of reality into it; for our readers."

His ways make them laugh while crying, which helps also to put a satisfactory smile on his face. Thus, making a similar light atmosphere between them, they had their dinner.

After An Hour Of Dinner

Shruti's mind rotated about the last conversation with her Master. She said (inside): "I won't be able to hide these things from Rajive & Vishal, anymore! After all, I am their criminal and have to pay for my sins, before my death!"

She took an intense look at Lena and saw their surprised faces, who were already gazing at her weird acts, all of a sudden. Finally, she made the courage to say: "Loo..k! I want to say one harsh reality with you guys! By which, I am sure...that you truly will never be able to forgive me. I know this!

But! It doesn't mean that I would keep this truth hidden from you. After all, today or tomorrow; this thing would have come up."

Rajive (while interrupting her in the middle) said: "What do you want to say, just say it clearly? Don't twist the theme!"

Vishal: "Yeah! Rajive is speaking right. Shruti! What's the matter?"

Shruti: "Vishal, I am extremely sorry! Your child passed away before coming to this world, very recently! Cause!.....'Cause for Lena's passing from Bhumi's dark influences!"

Rajive: "WHAT...!..?.."

Listening to this, Rajive's anger absolutely blasted over her. He couldn't able to control him and constantly scolded her. Where; Shruti wasn't protesting anything of this and silently bowed her head and listened to him while shedding tears.

On the other hand, Vishal looks calm and emotionless. But into this, his eyes were already in the tears.

It was just as if he was quiet for his helplessness with his own fortune, which was constantly ready for the test of his every control-level step. Vishal placed his left hand on Rajive's right shoulder and pointed to him to calm down. By which, somehow he cooled himself and for once he glared at her shame of bowed in crying condition with her helpless and tearful eyes.

The second few moments, he looked at Vishal's face and notified him with his reassuring eyes. After that Vishal began to say in his filled eyes, "Yes! I came to know about this a few days back from...from the doctor. But....! Seeing the tangled relationship between the two of you, I..! I couldn't able to say anything! However, Does Lena even be aware of...!?"

To which Shruti just nodded her head towards 'Yes'. Vishal asked again after seeing her reaction: "Do we still have time to save her or..., not?"

On which she made her words firm and said to him: "I promise you; If I can't bring Lena back to life in front of you, tomorrow. I shall kill myself, for sure...!"

Hearing those unexpected words from her, Vishal & Rajive couldn't believe these last sentences of her! While taking the vow of her death; both of them wanted to stop their hand in the air to prevent her from saying it.

However, she said these words without paying attention and further said: "All you've to do is be in front of Lena! The rest of us will handle it."

Vishal: "But..! Without me? And why can't I go with you guys?"

Shruti: "Because someone also needed to be in front of Lena's physical protection. Also, When Lena wakes up and if she doesn't see you or, anyone in front of her, after so long comma. This will be apprehension of something going wrong. As for the plan, I've already received it from my Master's."

Rajive: "Yess...But at least, shouldn't we have to discuss the plan?"

Shruti: "Umm..! I shall not allow you to explore any information about...this....Due to some compulsion of mine! Well...Enough of now! I must go, Bye everyone."

While hiding her tears and sadness; she went from there, rushly; which Rajive could easily see. For now; all he can do this to giving hope to his hopeless brother!

On this going, the time has been flown and paused at midnight. However, after the long conversation; both two siblings became tired. After saying, 'Goodnight!' --- Rajive returns to his room; until then he almost forgets that Shruti is now using his room.

When he recalled this, it was getting late!

But more than feeling embarrassed, he felt scared of thinking that if his eyes weren't wrong then until 2 hours, Shruti constantly crying.

'Cause till now, for her unknowing of his presence; she was crying (loudly). In the barely- dim room, she was crying over her making wrongful decisions!

Somehow, she realised that someone entered the room without any giving signals. She felt that it must be Rajive. Even though she had something mind up inside herself.

Whereas; Rajive came near her and with an awkward voice, he started to say. "I think...We shouldn't share the same room! Inhance, it's a very kind of awkward feeling!"

Shruti: "Oh no...no...no! It's alright. After all, it is just a matter of a night. So, don't bother about it! Anyhow, I wanted it also. So, don't feel embarrassed!"

Rajive (shock + surprise) asked: "Wait..! What? Why? You mean...You mean to point on....having!"

Shruti while hiding her pain and teasing him: "Why darling you don't to be? I thought you would be the one, who will be desperate about this!

But, Unfortunately...Maybe; I have taken this mistakenly."

Hearing this from her was beyond her idea. Rajive (in speed) moved toward her and grabbed her waist (hardly), but gently and said further in a bit of flirting way. "By any chance, do you just take for dis-granted; Sweetheart? For your kind information, I am the same as that old bad Rajive."

By saying this, he felt that he was uncontrolled over his emotions and moving toward her thin-delicate lip. But to disappoint him once again, Shruti pressed one finger on his left chest to distance herself from him, which makes him shocked.

Shruti: "Anyhow, Now...I changed my mind! So, please keep your distance from me."

After saying so, she teased him with her mingled eyes; which constantly attracted him towards her sides. After giving him this sort of her look, she went to the washroom. Seeing her gone, he takes out a deep breath and from the closet, he brings out the wine bottle. After serving it to the glass, he went to the balcony and while seeing the out scenario, he took the sips.
