The Land of Beloved!!!

Chapter 47

Bihaan and Kabir were sitting in Kabir's car driving on a long, silent road. Kabir was driving while Bihaan was sitting with him trying to ask where they were going but Kabir told him that it was a secret only. Bihaan looked very annoyed which brought a smile on Kabir's face. After all their plan was working well.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Thapki was in kitchen doing her work when Kiran entered. She looked at Thapki and signalled her "yes" with her eyes. Thapki felt relieved as now she could work with out any tension. With her eyes she thanked Kiran. Kiran smiled and left kitchen. Her engagement was tomorrow so she herself had lots of work.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Thapki picked up the lunch tray and walked towards Shradha's room. She found Shradha and Vasu sitting on bed and next to them were lying jewellery boxes containing many jewellery items which looked very expensive. Thapki noticed Shradha looking at those boxes with greedy eyes. Shradha noticed Thapki and shut those boxes.

Shradha: "Wat r u doing here?"

Thapki: "Brought u lunch. The door was ajar so I came inside"

Shrdaha: "Okay put it on the table there"

Thapki put the tray on the table and was abt to leave when Shradha called her. Thapki looked at Shradha with inquiring eyes.

Shradha: "Mummy Ji, I could have put it all in my locker but it is already full of my jewellery and Dhruv's stuff so I was wondering that may be Thapki could keep them locked in her wardrobe. Actually the lock on my wardrobe is not working so I do not want to take a risk. Plus we can not keep in bank as we might be needing them time to time as so many functions are lined up ahead"

Thapkl: "Me??? but It is such a big responsibility and I do not....."

Vasu: "Shradha is right. With so many guests at home, even I can't put it downstairs as I have to open and reopen my wardrobe all the time. Thapki's room is also upstairs and these will be safe there. Isn't it so Thapki?"

Thapki knew it was a big responsibility but she could not say no to Vasu so she agreed.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Bihaan and Kabir were standing with their broken car on the side of the road. The sun was bright and 

there was no one to be seen on the road.

Bihaan: "We are out of mobile coverage area. We can not contact any one.... How will be go back?"

Kabir: "I am also getting worried. I guess we must walk and see if there is somebody who could help us"

Bihaan: "I am still wondering, y u chose such a deserted area for ur factory. I am rejecting this place without even seeing it"

Kabir turned away from Bihaan and a smirk appeared on his face. Bihaan did not know that this was not a site seeing visit neither was his car broke but it was a part of Kabir's plan.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

The family had gone to Mandir and after that they had plans of dinner. Only Thapki and Shradha were at home. Shradha was not feeling well so Thapki volunteered to be at home and this also gave her ample time to finish her work. She looked at her wrist watch. It was 8 pm and Bihaan was not home yet. She started getting worried. Before she could worry more, she heard the main door opening. She looked at Bihaan who looked very tired and annoyed at the same time.
