PART 2..............

kalpi emptied the whole pail of water on the drunk and mumbling Raghav who shot up from bed drenched and in a pool of water cursing " what the bloody hell..........he stopped his words in mid air when he saw kalpi the love of his life standing in front of him he rushed out of bed water still dripping from him and hugged kalpi ....... kalpi could not evade his hug for a moment she stood still then hugged him back and cried her heart out on his chest I'm sorry kalpi I had no other choice please forgive me" Raghav's words came almost choked as he hugged kalpi even tighter and kalpi could not bear the pain she lifted her tear stained face and rained kisses all over raghav's face and he kissed her back the pain of separation from kalpi was too much to bear kalpi brushed away the uncontrollable tears which were cascading down Raghav's cheeks and on closer look kalpi saw a streak of red lines on Raghav's cheek ... she touched it gently and looked into his eyes as though imploring silently how he got that streak of red lines Raghav tried to avoid kalpi's eyes but she was fast she grasped his face in her hands and asked trying not to break down"who god damn it did that to you"Raghav touched his cheek and tried to avoid answering kalpi but kalpi stood her ground......" it was kamla ma who slapped me she told me to stay away from you kalpi she opened the parcel I sent to you she came to meet me behind the chawl instead of you whom I was expecting how can I you're every breath I take I know I wronged you vittal uncle pakya and kamla ma but I had no choice because the only way I had . to gain access to the kapoors was through pakki so I married her please forgive me kalpi raghav went on his knees while holding kalpi by the waist .kalpi stroked his head and made him stand please raghav don't do this " kalpi said please go and shower I will cook something for us then we need to talk .kalpi ran downstairs quickly and dismissed the servant and started cooking for raghav .......she had just finished cooking and was about to take the pan off the stove when a pair of hands caught her waist from behind .kalpi closed her eyes a warm sensation invading her body ....kalpi pushed herself away from raghav and quickly moved to set the dinning table they ate feeding each other lovingly and raghav even helped to wash the plates and finally when raghav was sitting on the sofa kalpi sat beside him and he quickly put his arm around her Raghav"kalpi began " I want you to stop drinking for good and " I need your help please I dont care how you do it but please throw sahil and neetu from the chawl we dont want them there please raghav my aai has given shelter to them at our house baba and pakya dada and I cannot tolerate this any more ( thank god kalpi did not request raghav to return the wealth back to the kapoors ) Raghav touched kalpi's hand "ok I will do it but I want you to return to the office your resignation is not accepted .Said raghav .....kalpi forced a smile on her lips and nodded indicating that she would ( Raghav did not realise that kalpi had secretly packed her bag and that she was going to leave the chawl ) "my aai will be looking for me raghav I have to go..".kalpi said to raghav and quickly left raghav's house tears streaming down her cheeks indian marriages are sacred and it stays for a life time Raghav had married pakki and kalpi needed to go as far as possible from all of them even her aai was still supporting pakki to try to make her marriage work kalpi had nothing left her aai was snatched by pakki and now even the man she truely loved was also snatched by pakki and kalpi needed the space to breathe but neither raghav nor kalpi knew the plan GANPATI BAPPA had for them a storm was breewing up ..meanwhile Raghav was allready calling up sammy to get things done he needed to throw the kapoors from the chawl ...........................to be continued
