Will You Break Me ( ArjunMukta 1)

6: game on

Raj came home. Rashmi looked his face and felt him bit distressed. He didn't speak a word but went directly to washroom. She became worried. He never behaved like that.

She was waiting for him with some refreshments, but when he came out, he didn't look her and left the room silently. She followed him in study room and asked,
" what happened Raj... why are you behaving like this?"

Raj didn't answer her question but asked,
" where is Arjun? "

Rashmi was confused,
" Arjun ? You forgot that you sent him on business tour...i don't know what is happening behind my back."

Rajveer looked her,
" Arjun didn't come home yet... he came back today... call him and ask where is he?"

Rashmi dialled Arjun number and it was ringing. After 2 or 3 rings but Arjun didn't pick. Raj called him from his number, this time he picked the call,

Raj anxiously asked,
" Arjun where are you? Why didn't you come back to home?"

Arjun in bit stressed voice,
" Raj... for some time... i want some peace... i don't know if you feel or not but i am feeling extremely guilty for my deeds. I cannot repent but i also cannot hide this guilt from my family and for their questions... i don't have any answers..."

Raj left stunned and speechless. He cut the call and tried to compose him. Rashmi was observing his behaviour,
" Raj... Arjun is okay? Where is he?"

Raj turned to her and replied in weak tone.
" he is with some friends... and will come back in some time... Rashmi.. i am feeling tired... i want to sleep for sometime."

Rashmi touched her forehead and asked in concern tone,
" Raj.. what is bothering you?"

Raj couldn't tell her the actual reason so he covered up with excuse,
" Don't worry love... it is just headache... i will sleep for some time and will be fine..."

Rashmi looked him unconvinced.

*************
Arjun who just talked with Raj turned to Mukta and said.
" so Mukta singh... this is your new home... i know it is quite small than your mansion but it will be perfectly safe for you... "

He showed her a small 2bhk apartment which was fully furnished according to his taste.

Mukta looked around with curious eyes.
" whose home is this?"

Arjun smiled,
" this is my apartment... Raj and my family don't know about it so it will be good to be your home."

Mukta smiled sadly,
" you are doing so much for me... how will i repay you..."

Arjun interrupted her,
" you don't have to think about it... your brother will repay everything which he snatched..."

Mukta looked him and said hopefully,
" don't do anything wrong with him... he is angry with me but i am sure when he will realise.. he will search me..."

Arjun couldn't take off his eyes from her on her words.
" Mukta... you are too innocent but when he didn't melt on your death news... how will he realise?"

Mukta instantly became shocked,
" what... my death news? But i am alive..."

Arjun felt her anger and turned his face other side,
" we played with him... when you were out from the mansion... we mixed the sleeping pills in your water bottle... that's why you slept for some hours and after that Mr Gupta did a drama with doctor and they declared you dead.. Raj's man thought that true and informed him...."

Mukta exclaimed on his revelation,
" that's why i woke up in the train with that women who told me that i became unconscious again..."

Arjun nodded and a woman came inside,
" she is Rama... she will stay with you in this home..."

He looked Mukta who was quite angry with the situation,
" Mukta... i am sorry but it was necessary for your safety..."

Mukta : " Whatever but he is still my brother... you people shouldn't do that with him."

Arjun was surprised,
" you still care about him..."

Mukta: " yes and i will..."

Arjun saw the tiny girl infront of him. How could she was so selfless. The brother who ditched her was still important for her. He thought in his mind,
" if she care her idiot brother like this so how much lucky will be the person whom she will fell in love..."

The words slipped from his lips unknowingly,
" you will be the blessing for anyone... Raj is so stupid..."

Mukta looked him on his soft tone and sudden words. She didn't understand how should she react on his complimentary words.

Arjun changed the topic instantly and said,
" if you need anything... you can call me... here is your new cellphone... i saved my number in this...."

He turned towards Rama,
" Rama.... bring the food parcel from the kitchen and arrange the table... i am coming in some minutes... Mukta you also should go and change... your room is left one..."

Mukta nodded and walked with slow steps. She turned back but he was not there now.

After some time, the all three people was eating in silently. Mukta was trying to be mentally strong for her future while Arjun was thinking about the responsibility which he took. He had to make her independent right under the nose of Rajveer Singh. She became so precious for him in just 2 days like his other relations.

************

Raj was sleeping in his room when he felt if someone jerking him. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Mukta on his side who was calling him sweetly,
" bhai... i came here to live with you... you can't left me like this..."

He hurriedly jerked her hand and got up
" go away from my life..."

He was sweating badly when he heard the other voice.

It was Rashmi who was scared to see him like this.
" Raj are you alright? What is happening? "

Raj became relaxed and calmed and replied,
" yes... don't worry... it was only a bad dream... it will never be true..."
