Gangaa

Chapter 9

The next morning, Krishna comes outside. She asks why are they packing her lunch and bottles when it’s a trip she can’t go for. Ganga tells her that she is going for the trip, Krishna cheers and looks towards Ganga. Ganga gets it, and bends to get a kiss from her. She shares with Kashish that she doesn’t want to steal Krishna’s childhood from her, she has informed her teacher about the reality who assured to take complete care of Krishna. It’s only about a few hours, she is sure nothing would go wrong.

Sagar and Madhvi stood on the airport, Sagar gets Amma ji’s call and asks if he is in the car. Sagar tells her that the car didn’t arrive yet. Amma ji says she asked Pulkit to send the car in time. Sagar counters that Niranjan must have forbidden him, calling from Delhi. He was ready to get the cab. Zoya smiled victoriously behind, and goes outside with her cell phone. She calls her lover who was sitting at a stall, she confirms if Pulkit asked him to go to airport. He replies that he thought this would give Sagar another chance to hate Niranjan, Zoya appreciates.

Ganga comes to drop Krishna, she complains that Ganga doesn’t care about her the way other girl’s mothers does. Ganga says she loves Krishna and wants her to be independent girl. They share hugs and kisses before the bus leaves.

Sagar negotiates the cab driver. Madhvi was ready to give the rent as per demand, Sagar was curt that Niranjan didn’t think once that they would have luggage. He didn’t even care about her, she was coming back after 7 years. Madhvi sends him to get water bottle and gets in the cab. Sagar comes towards the stall, Madhvi watches a temple nearby and prays that Sagar comes out of his curtness, getting peace of mind and heart.

Ganga drives her cycle near the stall, Sagar looks towards the back. A fruit vendor comes there, Ganga comes to the same stall Sagar stood a while ago while Sagar went to the fruit vendor. The stood on next stalls, Ganga turns to leave when she hears Sagar’s voice asking for another bottle, she looks behind but can’t see Sagar and wonders why his sound echo in hers repeatedly.

Sagar hears her cycle bell, and thinks that even the breezes of this city are filled with Ganga’s memories but he promised himself never to look towards her. He comes to check the newspaper about Ganga’s news. The stall man informs him about her, Sagar denies knowing her. He thinks he had a misunderstanding about knowing her, the reality is that he doesn’t know this girl at all.

Sagar gets into the cab, they drive along the school bus and can hear the children singing in the bus. He held his hand just like Krishna. Madhvi stops him, Sagar says he really enjoy this cold wind touching his cheek. There in the bus, Krishna replies the same to teacher. Sagar does this again, Krishna throws her stroller out of the bus window this time, all of a sudden she drops it and it flows over Sagar’s face. Sagar asks the cab driver to follow the bus, he needs to return the scarf.

Ganga returns home and watches Pulkit leaving her home, she wonders why he came here when he knew no one is at home this time. Kashish was shutting her doors, and makes up she forgot a patient’s file home. She asks about Pulkit, Kashish says he came to meet Ganga. Ganga wonders why he came at this time when he know she isn’t home this time.

Pulkit gets Ganga’s call, who taunts that she caught him stealing. Pulkit was shocked and left speechless, Ganga says if he came for something important. Pulkit says it’s about Sagar, but Ganga doesn’t want to speak about it. Amma ji comes there worried that driver didn’t reach to Sagar, she wants to go to Ashram right now. Zoya comes there saying she has been trying the driver but he isn’t picking up the call, how would they go to Ashram now.

Amma ji was curt that the driver is useless. Zoya doesn’t let Pulkit try the driver’s number, he watches Biwi calling and takes the call. Zoya asks where he has been, he must come home as they have to go to Ashram. She looks around then insists on him to understand if he doesn’t reach in time, he will have to lose his job.
