Chapter 54
Jiya was delighted to see her mother so happy with Aman. The couple had applied for marriage in court. Aman had informed his ex-wife and daughter about his decision to get married. Both had no problems. Everyone had gone to Sukhna Lake to celebrate their happiness. In the evening, it was nice to sit on the shore of the lake and go boating.
Chandigarh was a million times better than Mumbai. No traffic jams, no pollution, no crowd, just lush green trees on both sides of the roads added to the beauty of the city. No one was in a hurry to reach their destination. Everyone used to follow the rules of traffic.
Here, people had time for each other, and the food was great too. Both Jiya and Mallika were fans of dal makhani, makki ki roti with sarson ka saag, and butter chicken. Once every fifteen days, they used to eat Punjab's spicy food.
This city had given only happiness to Jiya. Sometimes a change of city brings a change of fortune. While she was happy with her new life, Vikrant was a little upset. He was thinking about that night. He had never felt like he did last night.
He has always had control over his emotions, but what happened last night made him think. He couldn't understand why Abha didn't stop him from coming closer to her. He wasn't conscious at the time, but she was fully conscious. What if Anu and Mayank are right about her?
As soon as he reached the office, he called Rajesh to the cabin.
"Rajesh I have work for you."
"Yes sir."
"You have to keep an eye on Abha and find out where Jiya is living nowadays. All information must be accompanied by a photograph."
"Yes sir. Sir Abha means your children's nanny?"
"Yes, Rajesh. These things should remain between us."
"Okay Sir."
He had full faith in him. He had never disappointed him. From the office to his personal work, everything was done by Rajesh.
Vikrant deliberately reached home late in the evening. The children were asleep, and Abha was awake, waiting for him.
"Why didn't you sleep?"
"I was waiting for you. Shall I get something for you to eat?'
"No, I have already had dinner at the hotel."
"Okay. You go freshen up; I'll bring milk for you."
After some time, Abha brought milk into the room. He said to her, "whatever happened last night was not right. Please forgive me. I respect you a lot. I don't know how I lost control of my emotions yesterday."
She didn't say anything in return and went to her room, where she started crying loudly.
"I don't want your respect; I want your love, Vikrant. As much as you loved Jiya, I want you to love me too. I can't express in words how much I love you. I'm a woman, and I have needs. I also want someone to love me and make me feel special.
I know it has taken me a long time to understand my own feelings, but what should I do now? My emotions are beyond control now. The day I saw you passionately kissing Jiya, my suppressed emotions came to the surface. That day I have come to call you for some work. The door had been opened. You were making love to Jiya. In the silence, the sound of your moans was clearly audible.
At that moment, I realized how lonely I was. I love you, Vikrant. I need your love. I don't know when that night will come when you will look at me with love. As a woman, I can't even openly express my feelings for you. So much time has passed since Jiya left, and you are still stuck in that.
I know this is wrong; you belong to someone else. But what to do with my heart that is mad after you? This love has made me what I wasn't. I wish! I've never worked in this house! I had never loved you. There are so many wishes that are burning in my heart, and I don't know how long they will continue to burn.
The fire begins to burn in the body with a glance of yours, not knowing what the touch of your callous hands will do. Look at the extent of the madness. Even knowing that there is a river of fire outside the threshold, the heart still wants to feel the warmth of that fire up close.
This fire will cause nothing but destruction, yet the heart wants to burn in that fire. I know this love is going to ruin me, and as I see the height of madness, I am ready to be ruined. I know I am on the wrong path, but now I can't take a step back."
She wiped her tears, washed her face, and went to Vikrant's room. He was in deep sleep. A glass of milk was lying empty on the side table. She lay down next to him and started kissing him. He had no idea what was happening to him. After a while, she slept with her head on Vikrant's shoulder and went to her room before he woke up in the morning.
It was Abha's first night with Vikrant. Although nothing happened directly between them, she was satisfied with Vikrant's closeness. When he woke up, his head seemed a little heavy, and the buttons of the shirt were also open. At night, he slept with the buttons of his shirt closed. He couldn't understand how it had suddenly opened in the morning.
He called Abha and asked for strong black coffee. She cheerfully wished him good morning today.
"You seemed to be in a good mood today. What's the reason?"
"Nothing special; I slept peacefully last night. That's why the mood is good."
"It's good that at least someone slept peacefully. I have had a headache since I woke up."
"Have some coffee; you will feel better. I'll get your breakfast ready by then."
"Hmmm." After drinking coffee, he felt a little better, and then he got ready and left for the office.
No one was at the home. She was the lady of the house for a while. While swimming, she was drinking juice and thinking about the night she spent with Vikrant.
"I wish! If you had been in your senses last night, the night would have been even more memorable."
