Pure Passion

Part 25

Romeo panicked and called out to his servant Ramu kakaa please call the doctor. He cursed himself! Oh no the Doc had told me not to stress her! I cannot even look after her health and here I was dreaming to keep her happy for life! I dont know who is worse Prem or me! You will be okay Jul! I am so sorry hon! I- I will set everything right!You will be fine yes you will be...it was more like consoling himself than her. She has been through a great emotional turmoil recently and how will her fragile body handle all that though she is mentally so strong!He shivered to the spine thinking anything bad would befall her.He remembered how Juliet had cried telling him to stay away from him as she would bring him bad luck but he felt it was his misfortune that was troubling them. I lost my parents and then maa- papa and lived the life of an orphan with no one to love me as a person. And now that Jul came into my life she too is struggling! He kept kissing her face softly holding her close as he laid down on the sofa!Soon the doctor arrived. This time it was a lady doctor. She asked Rags to take Kalpi into a room as she needed to do her check up.After intial check up like BP and stuff...she checked her eyes and nails and her pulse. She did not seem very happy!You Mr...she is your wife and you cannot take care of her? Sorry to say but what is with you rich men? You cannot give her some attention? When was the last time she ate or drank something?We need to take her to a hospital, now! No said Rags she is going nowhere, the hospital shall come here. Please arrange for it and pray tell me what is wrong with her. She has been fainting again and again.Hmm asked the doctor when was her last period? Huh! asked Rags...See? Replied the doctor, you dont even know that? I say these men! she huffed and made way to make arrangements over the phone...Now why does she want to know that? Hmm wait a minute does she mean Jul is expecting???? with my child???He started counting days but was unable to get to any proper conclusion. He hurried towards the doctor and asked her do you thinks she is pregnant? The doctor looked at him and do you think I am some swamiji to predict that Mr?I need to conduct tests to confirm the same. Though her BP has dropped and her body temperature has dropped too! She seems a bit dehydrated to me. But I need to do some more tests and the great husband wants the hospital here!Why not call a doctor from one of your hospitals? Why call poor me? Romeo rolled his eyes at the doctor. With each passing minute he wondered if she was a real doctor or a kaamwaali bai who kept murmuring and ranting so much that it irritated him!But he kept mum just so that she could start treating Juliet!Meanwhile Vitthal and Kamla were still discussing about Kalpi!Vitthal says Kamla its better we talk to Kalpi about this. Kamla nods and says what will we tell her? That her whole life was a lie?That we lied to her about her parents? That she was kept away from what was rightfully hers? That Nirmala was not her Aai but her Daayima?That Kalpi is not Kalpana Jadhav but she is Kalpana Singhaniya???Vitthal closed his eyes! and nodded his head! She will never understand us Kamla I know! But it was for her we did all this.But what I fail to understand is that how is Raghav called Singhaniya? Was he not supposed to be Raichandji's son? Then... and then ...I think they are unaware that our Kalpi is Kalpana Singhania! After all she was hardly one when that incident happened who can recognise her after these many years?Kamla recalled that day when Nirmala told her Nirmala-...Arrey you will not believe...kids these days...he he...you know that Raghav baba?Kamla: Who your Seth's partner's son? Nirmala: Haan wohi! He saw Kalpu baby today and the moment he saw her he said when I grow up I will marry her! She is so pretty and she has such big eyes! and I love her smile! He even asked his mother if they could take the baby home so that he could play with her!Kamla: Laughing...he he hmmm ur Kalpu baby already has boys lining up for her be careful what if my prem likes her too?Nirmala: (This time it was her to laugh) Then toh Prem ki lottery lag jaayegi!!! He He! Kyun Prem! Prem was also around 10 months of age and he just cooed and giggled when Nirmala called out his name. Kamla used to love listening about Nirmala's stories about the Singhanias. Nirmala shared everything with her.Present day:Vitthal - Kamla where are you lost?Kamla - In the past. Nirmala had loved Kalpi so much that she died for her and so she is her rightful mom and not Gauri Singhania!Once when Nirmala was unwell for a week she had requested Kamla to take care of Kalpi at the Singhaniya mansion. Kamla had agreed only on one condition that Prem would go along and that she would not be asked to do any other work.Gauri had liked Kamla and her knack with small children. That day Raghav had been there too! He made a fuss in eating food when Kamla asked him what he wanted and he asked for bhindi!Though she had said she wont do other work she cooked bhindi and roti for him and he was very happy. He also liked playing with Prem and said I will tell my mom to give me a baby brother too! Just like him! He is so much fun always smiling...Kalpi keeps crying all the time he complained!Kamla smiled. Present day -Now Kamla was disappointed!If only the singhaniyas were alive Kalpi would have been the owner of their business and maybe Raghav would have married her!Vitthal - who knows maybe that is what destiny wanted and so her marriage with Prem broke! Maybe Bappa wants to see RagNa together! (LOL)Singhaniya mansion:Rags fussed around the doctor asking her not to poke the IV too hard and to give injection slowly and if the room temperature was ok. And what all must he give for dehydration and how can the test for anaemia done and how can he help...when the lady doctor got irritated...Enough! Now I know what must have happened to your wife! You talk so much!Romeo stood with his mouth open and completely shocked! Excuse me? I am talking too much!Shut up and just keep quiet! And let me do my job! And stop touching her! Go away please and do some of your office work and come back.She packed some blood samples and sent it off to the lab!Hmm ughh! Romeooo! The doctor raised her eyebrows and looked at Kalpi through her spectacles in suspicion...oh she has extra marital affair or is she a fan of Shakespeare?Must be a literature student! Or a playwriter...anyways...back to work.Rags avoided work and kept marching in front of the room where she was in with the doctor. Whom did this Ramu kaka call? She is so irritating and is not even letting me go near Juliet! Oh God why did you send her? You know na I cant stay away from my Jul! Please do something!Rags gets a call on his phone and sees its Romi! Ah Romi please will you attend the client meeting today as Sammy is away in Delhi and I am in the middle of a crisis!Romi groaned saying but Bhai I called to ask for a leave!Romi this is really serious. I will give you leave for your stupid girls on some other day I swear! Okay Okay Okay bhai I will do it!Thanks a ton yaar! Okay then keep me updated.Kamla and Vitthal now getting more and more worried. Why is Kalpi not home yet?Kamala- Vitthal we cant tell her the truth atleast not now. First we have to find out how did Raghav become a Singhaniya? It was Saahil Kapoor, Gauri's brother who was the real culprit behind the Singhaniya family's murder and he got caught and was acquitted then how did Raghav gain that surname? Nirmala had given her life for Kalpi and we have to maintain this secret and let it out only at the right time.Vitthal - I completely agree Kamla!Singhaniya mansion:The doctor gives drips to Kalpi and then after some time leaves a nurse to monitor her and calls Raghav asking...if he is ready to be a father? Rags is shocked! Fa- Father??? M-Me? Doctor was very irritated...No me! I am going to be a father so please congratulate me!What?? Come again? said Raghav a bit annoyed.Then what? Do you men never learn science in school? Then why do you al behave so surprised and shocked to hear that your wives are pregnant...By the way I have sent the blood samples to the lab and they will let me know by tomorrow! So I will let you know soon, yeah?Rags left a sigh of relief! He was not tensed to hear he would become a father instead he was very excited but the thought that if Kalpi got another shock and if she would be able to handle it made him shiver with guilt and concern for Kalpi!Something struck him and he ran into his study and picked up the photo Kalpi was holding talking about her aai!He saw the family photo which had his parents Indraneel Raichand and Kausalya Raichand with the Singhaniyas - Vikram and Gauri. Raghav was there too! and in Gauri's lap was the baby!Aah God knows what happened to her and if she is still alive! There in the corner was Nirmala Jadhav the singhaniya baby's nanny!Kalpana! he said! After all these years I have one Kalpana again in my life! How I had loved this name? And see the irony Kalpi I gave you this name and lost you but I fell in love with Jul without realising her real name is same as yours. Are you still there somewhere? Why do I keep feeling you are alive somewhere near?Now this is my mom, Gauri ma and this was hmmm Narmada no Vimala no Nirmala aunty! Maybe Nirmala aunty is Jul's mom!His memories drifted to the days when he was informed that his parents were killed in an accident! If it was not Vikram papa and Gauri maa I would have died then itself... They took him in and decided to adopt and bring him up as a Singhania. Vikram had even got the papers ready, but before they could do so they too died due to a bomb that blasted in their car.It was Harsh Raizada Sammy's father and Vikram Singhaniya's most trusted accountant who proclaimed Raghav to be Singhaniya's legal heir! And took him abroad thinking it was not safe for him to live in India!He had since been living with Sammy and Romi and considered them as his brothers and Harsh uncle was there as a strong support system for Raghav though he missed his very own dear family!Raghav did not know why his name was changed to Singhaniya but then he never questioned Harsh uncle. I so got used to this name that I remembered who I am after a long time. Thanks Jul for reminding me who I am! He rushed to check on Jul. She lied on the bed weak and fragile with black circles forming around her eyes now!He felt a pang in his heart and he kissed her on her lips praying please dont snatch her from me. I am ready to give you anything else in return for her! I - I love her God. His tears fell on her face and she moved.Romeo is that you? huh! Yes yes Jul tell me. Do you need water? OR juice? Hmmm are you hungry? Should I call the doctor. He was about to go when she held his hand and stopped him from leaving.Never leave by my side Romeo...promise me!Rags nodded his head sadly thinking of what Kamla had ordered him... He nodded saying I will never leave by your side even if you ask me to do so!Theek hai? Kalpi nodded and smiled and drifted back to sleep!------------To be continued...So if Sahil is in jail then who is attacking Raghav? Does this person know that Raghav is not the legal heir of Singhaniya?But then how will it benefit them? Will Vitthal and Kamla reveal this truth to Kalpi? Will she leave the house? Will Raghav and Kalpi continue to live in oblivion of their relation or will they come to know of it soon?To know more and clear your doubts and answer your questions keep reading Pure Passion!
