A silence spread across the room. Ashok's attention diverted to Priya and he looked at her with a helpless gaze.
Ashok- Priya, jo tum soch rahi ho, waisa kuch nahi hai.
Priya started taking her steps towards the two and pulled Neha away from him, giving her a tight slap on her cheek. She had vented out all the anger and hatred she held for her from the very beginning in that one slap, turning her cheek red with her fingerprints plastered on her face.
Priya- How dare you?! Tumhari himmat bhi kaise hui mere hi ghar aake mere husband pe line maarte hue? Koi sharam hai tumhe ke nahi? Nahi hi hogi tabhi aise muh uthake chali aayi bas.
Neha- Priya, bandh karo apni yeh bakwaas. Main sirf Ashok se milne aayi thi.
Priya- Par Ashok ko toh....
Ashok- Mujhe tumse nahi milna Neha. So please mera peecha karna chor do tum.
He cut in between, interrupting her.
Neha- Par humare pyaar ka kya?
Ashok- Pyaar? Kaisa pyaar? Kaunsa pyaar? Tum bas mera faayda le rahi thi, mere paiso pe aish kar rahi thi. Aur kuch nahi. Mujhe aaj tak agar kisi ne sachhe dil aur mann se pyaar kiya hai, toh woh meri wife Priya aur mere bachho ne kiya hai. Tumhare saath relation banana meri ek galti ke alawa aur kuch nahi hai. Toh apne mann se yeh khawali pulao hatwa lo ke main ab bhi tumse pyaar karta hoon Neha. Main pyaar sirf Priya se karta hoon aur wohi meri roohaniyat hai!💗
Neha- Ashok, meri baat....
Ashok- I said leave! Get lost!
She simply left as there was no other choice. Ashok had shut her up lashing out all his vexation. Priya started crying, not out of any sorrow but eyes brimming with contentment and happiness. Ashok wrapped an arm around her shoulder, comforting her.
Priya- Ashok....
She called out his name, her voice filled with emotion.
Ashok- Priya, I really meant what I said. Tum hi meri roohaniyat ho.💗
Priya looked at him, a gentle smile etched at the corner of her lips, her eyes watery. Ashok wiped the tears dropping down her face and cupped her face gently, his gaze locked with hers.
Ashok- Ab main kahi nahi jaunga tumhare bina Priya.
Priya- Tumhe nahi pata mujhe yeh sab tumse sunke kitni khushi ho rahi hai.
She said, her voice gentle and with a surge of affection.
Just then, Prisha knocked at the door. Priya wiped some of her tears and opened the door.
Priya- Prisha, yaha kaise aana hua? Saveer sab theek toh hainaa?
Saveer- Haan aunty, sab theek hai. Asal mein....
Prisha- Saveer ko ab jaana hoga.
Ashok- Itni jaldi kyun Saveer? Dinner tak toh ruk jao.
Saveer- Thank you for the invite uncle but actually, office ka kaafi kaam pending hai. Woh Prisha jab hospital mein admit thi, toh office mein main ek din bhi nahi gaya isiliye abhi bohot kaam badh gaya hai.
Priya- Achha theek hai Saveer. But ek cheez toh tum kar hi sakte ho.
Saveer- Kya aunty?
Prisha- Dekhte rehna.
She whispered to him, nudging her arm against his.
Priya went to the kitchen and took out some lunchboxes, packing the dinner she had made for tonight. Saveer followed her and watched her packing the meal, making him remember about the days when his grandmother would do the same on his school days, packing lunch for him filling the lunchbox with love and warmth.
Saveer- Aunty iski kya zaroorat hai? Mujhe khaana banana aata hai aunty.
Priya- Toh kya hua? Ab tum mere bete jaise ho, toh main tumhari bhi toh care karungi naa?
She said, looking at him with a warm smile. Saveer smiled back and continued watching her, his smile unwavering from his face, appreciating the care and tenderness Priya was providing him with.
It was now time to bid bye to Saveer. Before leaving, Prisha embraced him, pulling him close to her, her hands around his neck. He hugged her back and kissed her forehead. Later, he touched Ashok and Priya's feet for their blessings and shook hands with Shelly.
Saveer- Aap sab bohot achhe aur pyaare log ho. It was a really nice time jo maine aap sabke saath bitaya. Thank you so much for such a lovely evening. And thank you aunty for the dinner.
Priya- Koi baat nahi Saveer. Humse milne phir se zaroor aana.
Ashok- Ofcourse, you're family now.
Shelly- As long as meri behen khush hai, main bhi khush hoon. I like you Mr Rathod.
Saveer- Zaroor milne aaunga. Abhi mujhe chalna hoga. Goodnight everyone.
Everyone except Prisha- Goodnight.
Ashok, Priya and Shelly took their leave but Prisha stayed behind. Saveer noticed her presence and turned around, looking at her.
Saveer- Kya baat hai Jaan? Are you okay?
Prisha stepped closer, her gaze fixated at him. She leaned close and placed a soft kiss on his cheek.
Prisha- Goodnight Saveer. I love you and haan, drive safe okay? Ghar pohochke mujhe call karna.
Saveer- Goodnight Prisha. I love you too and main tumhe yaad se call kardunga. Abhi ghar jao Jaan, raat bohot hogayi hai.
Prisha- Jaisa tum kaho Saveer. Bye.
Saveer- Bye.
He turned, walking towards his car. Before getting inside, he turned around and saw Prisha standing, looking at him. He took a momentary glance at her and smiled.
She returned the smile back and waved her hands at him. As a response, he kept his hand on his mouth and blew a kiss, pointing it towards her direction. Prisha blushed and acted as if she received the kiss and placed her hand on her chest with a smile.
Saveer smiled for a moment seeing her and then got inside his car, driving away from her house, heading towards his house and Prisha went inside.
What they both did not notice was that someone was indeed keeping an eye on them behind the shadows in the dark. But who was it? And what was it planning to do with Saveer and Prisha?
To be continued and thank you for reading!
