Feelings is our Language (RagLak)

Part 5: the friendship grows

As it was weekend. Saturday, Laksh was sleeping still in his room. It was already 11' o clock.

Ragini who wakes up early as every day, she does all the works.

She was looking at the photos of Laksh childhood. He was looking cute in krishna's attire. She smiles looking at it.

"aap bahut pyaare ho.."

('How cute you are..!')

she says and touches his cheek in pic.

'what are you doing..?' she hears Laksh's voice. Ragini trembles and turns back. She then realizes, she was wearing a sleeveless white one piece and it was above her knees. She thought Laksh won't wake that early, she has kept her lehenga in washing machine. It will dry in the drier within one hour. She thought to wear it before he wakes. But, she is booked now.

Now, he is seeing her bare shoulders and legs. She bends her head and she turns red. She wanted to run away, but her knees became weak to run due to shy. She stood there only as someone tied her there. Ragini was twisting the dust cloth in her hands due to nervousness.

Ragini is thinking,

"Yeh itne jaldi kyu uth gaye? Swara chachi chhote papa to 12 , 1 baje uthate the. Yeh 11 bajehi utg gaye?"

("why he has to wake just now..? swara, chachi, chote papa used to wake up at 12 or 1. Why he woke at just 11..?")

Laksh understands that she is feeling shy. And, even he is aware that something is happening inside him, when he is looking at the most hottest girl in the world in front of him. And that too he is alone. But, he brushes away his thoughts and controls himself rubbing his nape and taking a sigh.

Then, his gaze shifts to puja mandir. It was closed since many years. Laksh opens that room only for cleaning. But, today garlands and flowers were kept to idols and photos.

He goes and stands before puja mandir.

Rockey comes near Ragini and Ragini to avoid any eye contact with Laksh she carries Rockey(the Maltese puppy) and goes somewhere.

Laksh was still looking at pooja mandir and he remembers a small flash of his childhood.

'His mom, Ap was making garland with flowers and little Laksh was giving her one flower after the other. She lights the deepas in front of idol. She sings some bhajan song...'

Laksh remembers it. a tear drops from his eye.

"thank you Ragini. You have reminded me my mother. She used to decorate this room in same way..."

Says Laksh and turns back, but Ragini is not there.

"Ouch rochy bhaiya shant ho jaayiye."

(ouch..! Rockey bro, plz be calm..)

Laksh hears Ragini's voice from the common bath room. He goes near it, and the door is open. Ragini was giving bath to Rockey in small dog's bath tub. Laksh smiles.

Maybe, Rockey being crazy has split water on Ragini, she was wet on top. And, being wet that too wearing a white dress, she was transparent a little.

"Hawww Gaaad..!! this girl is making me too nervous day by day..!!" thinks Laksh and about to leave,

"aaahh.." he hears Ragini's slight scream and he turns back. Ragini's feet wound was not cured yet, and maybe it has pained as she hit bath tub without seeing. Laksh goes near her,
