Second chances

part-4( abhira comes to poddar house)

abhira felt like an eternity
when she woke up
she was feeling her head heavy
the first thing she saw was arjun playing with the baby
thats when she remembered the guest
she didnt even see him when she collapsed
" arjun is the guest still here"
" why so that you can faint again ayushi"
" abhira , stop calling me ayushi"
abhira was getting irritated but her husband pulled her in his arms
and began to massage her head
" feeling better miss abhira"
" some what , you are missing the spot again, btw you didnt answer the question
where is the guest?"
" he left, saying he had some important wok and didnt want to distub us"
" really? thats strange
should we re invite him may be his family ?" abhira asked feeling a bit sad
"you would need a reception hall my dear
his family is huge
looks like the whole udaipur is his family"
the name of the citi bought her back to the memories
the flashback was playing fresh in her mind
she failed in the past
and now she doesnt want that shadow on her family
so she immediately asked Arjun the question
instead of a request it seemed more of an order
" you need to transfer from udaipur.. i will not hear anyother excuses arjun please ..."
**********************************************
Armaan was silent
he didnt know what to do
should he be happy to see his abhira
or sad to see her as a wife of someother man
that abhira who loved him more than anyone
left him for Arjun
yes they were divorced , yes armaan failed to be a good husband
but still moved on
how can she move on ?
he said he needed some time
the divorce was not permanent
why .. why .. why
In his rage Armaan destroyed half of the room
when a knock bought him to his senses
it was his mother Vidya
" armaan kya kar rahe hoo, ye sab kuch .. kyu?
" kuch nahi maa , bas gussa tha"
" gussa chodo aur ye bato
wo deal hua ki nahi
wo udsc companies wala
rohit ko break mil jayega armaan "
for once armaan thought vidya was asking about him
but no it was again about Rohit and his career
armaan didnt want to say anything but stormed out of the room
when he saw ruhi and rohit arguing over little things
thats when armaan got this feeling
may be there was some other issue
which made abhira take the step of marrying arjun
may be arjun blackmailed her or forced her
or abhira is in a marriage with unhappiness
with a mental note to know the truth
armaan was brewing a plan
a plan to make abhira accept the truth and save her
*********************************************
Abhira was anxious , she didnt want to go back to udaipur
but she didnt want to disappoint her inlaws
they specifically asked her to visit their friends house
so without any other questions , she arrived in udaipur and began shopping for some sweets and gifts for the family she was supposed to visit
" arjun , you didnt tell me how many members are in the house"
" 31 "
" are you sure arjun? " abhira asked getting angry
" make it 50?" arjun said with no care
" this is why i dont want to go anywhere with you
always careless answers"
" then what should i do dadiamma, I dont know them, lets do one thing we will buy 1/2 kg sweet and give it "
" dadaji are you giving prashad?
how will 1/2 kg be enough for 50 people
are you drunk ?" abhira playfully hit arjun on the arm
" now tell me how many people , one second you have the address right?" abhira asked him with stern expression
" dont get angry, im calling them now "
" what now , arjun ..."
though arjun is irritating sometimes
abhira was happy
the mutual understanding was always there
As abhira was mesmerized by her husbands antics
the car reached to a halt in front of the poddar mansion
Abhira got down
but the color on her face paled out
she was bought back to reality
when arjun called her inside
she was hesitant, she didnt have the courage to go in
but seeing arjun asking her she had no chance
thats when she saw everyone
Dadisa was welcoming arjun and her
" please come in , Vidya get the thali, do the arthi"
" coming maasa" vidya took the plate and was about to do the arthi when arjun stooped her
" one second my wife needs to come
ayushi come inside" arjun took abhiras arm and entered the house
just looking at them both together made vidya drop the arthi ka thal
she wanted to say something
but dadisa though shocked signaled her not to say anything
and she did the arthi again
" im sorry the plate dropped from my hand" vidya said being very nervous
" its ok aunty, i dont mind
btw let me introduce you all to my family
this is my wife abhira and our son ayush"
just looking at the son made vidya boil in anger
she just left the room while all were trying to engage in the festival
little did they know a certain someone was looking at abhira with longing face
so many questions were raised in his mind
he was determined to get all answers from her
*********************************************
Manisha silently watched abhira feeding her son
how she wished that was abhira and armaans son
but she knew this was now impossible
she always liked abhira
so she went to have a chat
" you look good abhira"
" how are you chachi"
" you are happy right? does that collector babu take care of you?"
" more than anyone "
" im happy to know that you have moved on
after what happened that day
it was unbearable for me to think"
Just thinking about the day when abhira was forced to leave from the poddar house
bought tears in manisha and abhiras eyes
it was too much to take it
abhira was wiped her tears
when her son began to cry
manisha asked her to use the guest room
while she will go call arjun
*******************************************
Abhira called her son down and was rocking him to sleep
when the door suddenly opened
he immediately entered the room
and locked the door
Abhira got scared
the person infront of her changed
he was angry
" armaan ...?"
