HER ONE NIGHT STAND

THE CONFRONTATION

Ritwik had a feeling that something was wrong. When he contacted Myra's office he was informed that she had gone with Gaurav to Jaipur to meet a new client. Somehow he didn't trust Gaurav. He had seen Gaurav's behaviour with Myra and knew that Gaurav considered her to be more than a friend. Infact he was sure that Gaurav was attracted towards her.

Gaurav was an opportunist and if he realised that their marriage was not based on love he would definitely ruthlessly pursue Myra and taking her to Jaipur must be his first step. The entire weekend he was worried for her.

The next day morning newspaper confirmed his worst fears. "Is Ritwik Singhania's marriage on the rocks?". The article mentioned that while Ritwik was away in London with his ex, his newly wed wife was found dining twice with her boss. The first photo showed Gaurav kissing on her forehead but the most damaging photo belonged to yesterday with both of them in Rambagh Palace and Gaurav holding her hands and smiling towards her with love shining in his eyes. It looked as if he were proposing to her.

"Damn him" . He had taken full advantage of the situation but Ritwik was not one to lose. Myra was his, pregnant with his child and he would never ever let her go.

He got ready quickly and went straight to Myra's office to enquire when they would be back. However he was shocked to see Myra at her desk working.

"Myra you are back? When did you come back?"

"I came yesterday night. Why are you asking Ritwik?"

"I am asking because you are my wife and you came back last night so where did you spend the night, in your lover's arms?"

"Don't speak nonsense. I slept at home."

"And where is home now?"

"Home is where I stayed before marriage."

"Why didn't you come at our home?"

"Ritwik I have moved out. I don't want to stay as a stranger. That is your home not mine."

"No, Myra that is our home."

"It is not. You left for London without informing me and even after reaching there you never called. You went to meet Eliza- that is her name isn't it? Yet you still won't tell me who she is and what hold she has on you?"

"Myra I can't tell you right now but trust me I will. It's just that I cannot disclose anything right now/"

"You want to trust me yet you see one photograph of me and accuse me of adultery. Just get out and Ritwik this is my office please don't create any scene.."

"Myra you are too angry to understand the situation, but please don't fall into Gaurav's arms because he is waiting for this opportunity only."

"Ritwik leave"

"I will leave but this is not the end of this discussion," saying this he left her cabin to be confronted by Gaurav.

"Why are you hurting her. She is pregnant and instead of supporting her you are halfway around the world having a good time with your ex."

"Just shut up Gaurav. This is none of your business. Myra is my wife and she will remain so. Just keep you dirty hands off her."

"Ritwik I love her though I am late in realising this but I will leave no stone unturned to win her heart." On hearing Gaurav say this Ritwik punched Gaurav' face and left Myra's office.
