Secret passages of Bhairavgad

Chapter 15 : Day 15 - The good deed and A meeting.

Rudra along with two arrive in Bombay around half past ten, parking the car in front of hotel Seaview Princess which had huge garden on it's left and in front and to the right it had parking area.

Sati in a excited tone, "This is a five star hotel Jiji, I always wanted to come here when I was studying."

Rudra intervenes, "I full filled your wish."

Sati irritatedly sniffs stepping out of the car. Rudra opens the car door to let Rati step down and pulls the luggage out of the trunk. A chauffeur walks in front of them and greets, the next moment Rudra hands him the car keys.

The chauffeur replies, "I will park your car in parking of our hotel and leave the key at the front desk so that you can collect it anytime. Here have this token so that you get your car right" he hands a flat mermaid keychain with number 17 printed backside.

They enter the lobby when Rudra guides, "You can have seat over there" he points at the red sofa to the left side of huge lobby.

They both walk towards the sofa plopping down resting their heads back. Sati looks at Rudra conversing with the man at the reception. After fifteen minutes of waiting Rudra walks towards them stating, "I have booked two joining rooms with a door."

Rati rolling her eyes, "It's basically same as staying in same room."

Sati astonishingly towards Rati, "Is he going to stay with us?"

Rati laughs, "Ofcourse Sati he's staying with us basically but.... but... with a door. So it's not same room but different but ...."

Sati completes, "It's the same room" pauses then glaring at Rudra, "I should have talked to the manager."

Rudra snickers, "Surely if that happened, I would be spending my night in the car that would be 'too uncomfortable' and depriving me of good sleep."

Sati ignores him rolling her eyes. Rati engrossed in  exploring the hotel brochure raises her head asking, "Rudra will you lead the way to our rooms?"

Rudra bows his head then picking up the luggage walks to the elevator. They enter the elevator Rudra pushing the 8th floor button. As the door opens to the eight floor Rudra leads them to their room which is to the left side and the other on the right. The stairs are opposite to elevator's door.

Rudra walks to room, numbered 8.1. The room is spacious with king size bed on the left with a side table attached to it touching the wall. The window sill is wide enough to sit which is made of white italian marble. To the right is a rectangular glass table with water jug and two glass placed on it. Adjoining the table is a door with marble frame and two square shaped sofas beside it.

Rudra places the bags beside the sofa then collapses on the sofa. Rati walks to bed taking a seat, then with twinkle in her eyes she blinks looking at Sati and Rudra back and fro.

Sati standing near the table annoyingly asks, "What now Jiji?"

Rati takes a deep breath looking at Rudra and Sati then announcing, "Rudra. Sati. Rajveerji is coming today to meet me at 9 for dinner."

Sati barks, "What, are you nuts Jiji?"

Rati is taken aback by her words, her eyes divert to Rudra as he spoke, "So this would be the last time you will be meeting him before your marriage, huh?"

Rati nods and in a pleading tone, "Rudra I insisted him to come here all the way, cause I wouldn't have to worry about being seen and not care about time also people watching us. I had already told you..."

Rudra cuts her, "I want to help you Rati, but given the circumstances I don't think I can help, as I have to guard you both; plus don't forget what happened two days back."
