The minute Randhir was out of his house, his eyes fell on the gates of Aggarwal villa which were unlocked and slightly ajar. He walked in through the gates and searched her in every room and every corner of the house but he wasn't able to find her anywhere . Just as he was about to go back to his house and inform everyone about it , his gaze fell on a dimly lit area near the swimming pool where he could see a small figure sitting in a corner with her knees close to her chest.He breathed a sigh in relief at the sight of her but the next minute he was engulfed by a wave of anger . He wanted to yell at her and scold her for her irresponsible behaviour . What if something wrong would have happened to her? What would he do? Where would he go?? But she was depressed and he had to be calm and patient with her to help her come out of this state.
He took a deep breath ,walked in her direction and cleared his throat to gain her attention . She looked up at him and quickly turned her face to the other side to wipe away the uncontrollable tears which were streaming down her face.
"Kya hua???", he asked her calmly.
"Kuch nahi", she replied in a hoarse voice and sniffed wiping away her tears
He sighed deeply and walked upto her. He glanced at her for a minute , then sat down beside her.
"Agar Kuch nahi hua.... Toh why have you come here in the middle of the night ???", he frowned and waited for her reply but she remained silent .
"Have I said or done something wrong , Jo tum Mujhe Bina bataye is tarah SE aadhi Raat ko apne ghar chali aayi???", he asked her again .
She shook her head in a No and sniffed again looking at pool.
"Then????"
"Mujhe papa ki bohot yaad aarahi thi. I had dreamt of him tonight.", she muttered in a low voice .
"Uncle ki yaad aayi Isiliye tum aadhi Raat, Bina kisi ko bataye yoon is tarah ghar se bahar chali aayi???"
"I'm sorry . But Main aapko disturb nahi Karna chahti thi ..", she chipped looking at him.
"Sanyukta... Chahe Mujhe disturb Ho ya na Ho, chahe meri neend khule ya na khule , chahe tumhe jaagna Ho ya Sona, hasna ho ya Rona , chahe kuch bhi Ho .. I don't want you to leave the room in the middle of the night ever again ... " he chipped sternly to which she just nodded with her moist eyes.
"Now shall we go back.....", he asked but
she didn't reply .He stood up from the place where he was sitting and forwarded his hand to her ,
" Chalo..."She didn't move . She kept looking at him and a fresh set of tears started cascading down her eyes. He sighed and bent down to pick her up in his arms and started walking towards the gate, while she circled her arms around his neck for support. He carried her through the gates of Aggarwal Villa and then through the main door of the Shekhawat Mansion , while she kept looking at him with tears rolling down her cheeks. She could clearly see the care and concern for her in his eyes. But was this care just out of responsibility or was there something more to it??
He carried her upstairs towards their room and gently placed her on the bed . He then locked the door and covered her with a quilt .
"Tum so jao .You need rest...", he turned to go when she held his wrist stopping him and sat up on the bed.
"Randhir... Aap Mujhe kabhi chodke ke Toh nahi jaoge na??? Please promise me that you'll never leave me alone ..." , she croaked amidst her tears.
"Shhhh....", he hushed her placing his finger on her lips. He then looked deep into her eyes and said, "Sanyukta ,I promise you that I ll always be there for you . I'll always be with you in each and every aspect of life. You'll always find me by your side as your husband, friend, support and guide . Aur Chahe kuch bhi Hojay I promise that I'll never leave you alone no matter what.", he felt his own eyes tearing up as he promised her . And Despite his qualms he pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly. He couldn't see her like this.
His warmth was having a soothing effect on her. She felt relaxed by his touch. They remained in each other's embrace for a few minutes . He then stroked her hair softly and pulled away. His other hand reached upto her face and tugged a lose strand of hair behind her ear. He leaned forward and lingered his lips on her forehead and kissed her softly.
As he looked down , he watched the tears pouring out of her eyes. He reached his hand up to wiped it off, when she threw her arms around him and cried hugging him tightly.
He placed his hands on her shoulders and slowly pulled their frames apart. He leaned down and kissed her eyes one after the other , sucking away the tears coming out of it . He then caressed her cheek with the back of his hand and placed chaste kiss on it. His gaze fell on her lips and he felt a sudden urge to kiss her . His mouth almost moved to capture her lips , but he caught himself in time. He knew she wasn't ready for it and she needs time to accept him and their relationship.
" Sanyukta .. Bohot Raat Ho chuki hai. I think Tumhe so jana chahiye. ", he chipped looking at her.
He made her lie down on the bed ,covered her with the quilt . He then laid himself beside her and started caressing her hair with his fingers to put her to sleep when she turned towards him and hugged him tightly , burying her face in his chest.
He was left bewildered for a moment .
He didn't know whether she loved him or not. He didn't know whether she was ready to give their relationship a chance. But Right now , all he knew was that he had Sanyukta in his arms, and he didn't want to let her go. It was a moment of bliss. He wanted the time to stand still. He kissed the top of her head and hugged her back while his lips adorned a bright and serene smile.****************************************************************************************
