Enchanted Pursual (Complete)

Chapter 28

Mitalli Jain

The exhibition had been a huge success for the whole of the week, we were well compensated and now I had yet another task to take over for my life.

Though for my mom and Jai's it would have been our engagement, but since I knew Jai was taking quite a bit advantage of this whole things that had me packed up with tight schedules, he and his so called friends were still trying to keep me at a bay from a lot of things that were happening. And surely I could never accept that.

I walked through the gates of the Kapadia Mansion for a change today we weren't meeting at his office but at his home, and somewhere I knew dadi would support me. She always did.

I had almost walked into the house when my phone rang... it was a message from Tejal, she had got yet another patient and there was something down the line this case makes her a lot tensed.

With the words ready in my mind to type her response I had clicked on the screen when I heard Jai's mom calling out to me. Quickly keeping away the phone I smiled at her and said,

"I am sorry Aunty I came un announced but Jai is kind of ignoring me, I have to get hold of him."

Her eyebrows scrunched in confusion as she asked, "anything serious?"

"Not until now, but if he doesn't answers me, I cant promise you. He is really frustrating me now." I saw the way she smiled at me and patted my head.

"Its okay, jut know how much of your anger, issues and ego should rule your relationship."

Nodding my head at her I looked up towards his room, "he is in the study ...Go." She directed me and was once again off to somewhere in the house.

Walking up the stairs towards the study room, I had a hundered of questions running in my mind. I was pissed, but aunty was as well right, were these things that big to bring a truf between the two of us? But then again, this was beginning, this was something real small, was I to wait for something big to happen to let him know that it was the best for him to involve me in things that were related to them.

I took a deep breath as soon as I reached the door, knocked twice on it, and then opened it and walked inside. As usual he sat there his head bent down in his files, while the rest of the world was unknown to him.

"Jai." I called out to him. His head snapped towards me, for a moment his eyes widened and then a delightful smile spread across his face.

Standing up quickly, he pushed back the chair, and walked towards me at a lightning speed, and soon I was wrapped up in a warm embrace.

"I am so glad you came, I was missing you." he said, his nose buried deep inside the crook of my neck.

"It doesn't seem so to me from what saw a moment ago." My words were seemed to be sarcastic, but my mood certainly was, and I couldn't really help with it and what and how my words sounded like.

"And you seem to be a bit upset with me, anything that I did wrong?" he asked, with me still in his arms, his nose and breath tickling my neck. It was so difficult to even focus on the things that I wanted to say and argue about.

Wiggling out off his arms I stared at his slightly smiling face and walked off towards the sofa and sat down.

"You really need to reflect on yourself and your actions Jai, right now I think I did a mistake of coming here to talk to you, you can go back to your work," I stood up from there and walked towards the book shelf and said, "for some time I will read a few books. That is, if it's okay with you."

As I took out yet another book from the shelf, I could feel Jai's eyes staring down at me, observing each and every step of mine. It felt a bit uncomfortable, as if he was scrutinizing me, yet it was decided, today his talks won't suffice, he will have to provide me with information, and unless and until he did that, I won't budge from this.
