Hi
It was the next morning and Ragini was still sleeping under the duvet when the sun rays shines on her face. She tried to hide her face under the duvet, just then she heard the sound of the unlocking door. She turns her sleepy face and saw him. Laksh?. He just come out of the washroom and placed the towel on the chair not giving her a gaze.
Laksh looked out of the window, he adjusted the curtains and walked out of the room as silently as possible. The moment he reached the door Ragini sat up on the bed. "Laksh ji? We are not going to talk about it?". He turns to her and saw her bare body. He shook his head and lowered his gaze. "No, take your time!". He didn't opened the door as she wasn't covered.
Ragini took the duvet and wraps it around her. "You can open the door now!". Laksh nods and left without looking at her. Ragini stood up she was happy. Laksh had made her his, they have become one, even if it was a moment of a weakness, she become his weakness.
Ragini was under the shower, she quickly come out and changed into her traditional wear.
Laksh was in the garden he doesn't know why, but he slept with her. He was feeling bad. Damn it I used the situation, how could I. What will she think about me now? I misused our friendship...
Ragini went into the kitchen, she was having her first Rasooi and starts to prepare the food. As much as she knows, Laksh do like Parathe. She starts to knead the dough of the paratha, when AP and Sujata entered the kitchen.
AP smiles seeing her even Sujata did. "Jiji look our new happiness has already start to take responsibility on her shoulder!". AP nods just then Ragini turns. "Maa, Chachi ji you want something? Please sit I will serve you!". Both nod and waited for her handmade food.
All have arrived and were sitting on their places even Laksh come inside the house and sat on his regular stool. "Ragini Beta don't do much of the work alone! You just come into this house you are like our daughter not DIL!". Ragini smiles and served them at last she serves Laksh. He got the most filled paratha.
Uttara saw that. "Wah Bhabhi, that is smart and unfair. Bhaiya's Parathe is double filled just look at mine, it looks like a plain roti!". She demonstrated it by holding it up and waving it.
Laksh shook his head. "Here you can have mine!". He forwarded his plate toward Uttara, but she shook her head. "Bhai You are too much. I was just joking!". She starts to eat like everyone else and Ragini sat next to him, even she starts to eat the food.
All have gone to their respective rooms while Ragini had changed the bedsheets Laksh have come out changed into a suit. "Laksh ji?". She calls him surprised. Laksh looked at her. "Ragini, Papa asked me to join the company as soon as possible, so I guess the time has come!". He was about to leave when she hold his hand. "One minuet please!".
Ragini stood up and adjusts his collar his gaze was fixed on her. "I know it's not what you wanted and I'm not angry, because I wanted it. You are hurt and by marrying me you can't be happy, that is what you are thinking, right?". Laksh didn't answered her. "Laksh ji I have always loved you and I will keep loving you, but you have to promise me not to break my trust!". She looked deep into his eyes. "Ragini I would never break your trust, before you are my wife, you are my friend. My best friend!". He looked at her and then he placed a kiss on her forehead. "Have to go now!". Ragini nods with a smile and was gone.
Ragini lies on the bed taking rest from the day work and the night experience. She closed her eyes when she remembered the kiss on her lips. She went with her hands through her lips which were seeking for his touch. She turns to Laksh bed side and inhaling his fragrance. Laksh we both are hurt, but we both have trust on each other. My trust is love for you and your trust is your friendship for me. I know we both will find our way out of it. We do have feelings for each other, but they are hidden from your side, whereas I'm showing it off.
Laksh was in the office, he had started to work on a few project when RP come and saw him. "Bhai Sa what is he doing here? I thought you will give him a day off to spend some time with Ragini?". He looked at DP, who nods lost to him. "I told him not to come, but he insisted to start with the work as soon as possible!". They went to their cabins.
Laksh was happy. He had closed his eyes and turned with the chair toward the window front of his cabin. He took a deep breath and was lost. I cupped her face and kissed her lips. Those fluffy pinkish lips were... He opens his eyes and tried to forget the thought. He places his hands in front of his face and rubs his eyes.
It was the evening
Ragini was waiting for Laksh, everyone had arrived besides him. She was scared, what if something had happened to him. She shrugs the thought away. She kept holding her nuptial chain in her hand and looked at the door entrance. Laksh!.
She stood up and hugs him tight. "Laksh where were you I was so scared, even your mobile was switched off, please don't do that to me. I can't live without you!". She was crying on his chest and he felt bad. "Sorry Ragini!". He rubs her back. "Actually I went to meet a few friends of mine, they have given a surprise party for me. I got stucked there and my mobile wasn't charged. But it won't happen again!". He promised to her and she nods. "You had fun?". Laksh slightly nods.Both were in their room when Laksh comes out of the washroom he saw her lying on the bed at middle of it, her gaze was on the ceiling and her breathing was normal but visible through the movement of her chest. He tried to avoid it, but he couldn't as he liked it a lot. Ragini heard the sound of the closing door. She turns to him and smiles. "Laksh ji...". She moves giving him the place he needs.
Laksh lies next to her, he again looked at her and she was looking at him. "Light I will switched it off?". She was lying on his place. She switched the lamps of and sleeps over his chest with her half body. Laksh wasn't sure, but he placed his hands on her back and pulls her close. Ragini smiles and soon both fall asleep.
