Chapter 8
"NK'I want to spend sometime with my WIFE and ALONE"
NK almost burst his brain with all the thinking'what will he do now?
"NO ASR",lavanya interrupted "I have just got here and I want to spend some time with her'so u both are going to shut up and just let me'.and she took khushis hand scowled at NK and walked out of the room'
NKs instinct told him to make a run for it'but arnav being arnav foresaw it, overtook NK and closed the door.
'" I have a few questions and u r going to answer them'."he looked at NK in ASR mode to let him know that there was no way out other than answering him'
NK gulped visibly "O..KK.. SHOOT.."
Arnav folded his hands and gestured towards the couch
"why r u here back from Sydney ?"
"u know me'I needed a break from work'I am not a workaholic like you" nk retorted'his eyes steady and fearless as he was reminded what he was actually here for'
"u told your mother that u r here to help a friend'.which friend?"
Nk raised his eyebrows
"so homework has been done'y don't u find out the friend yourself?"
"I have my guesses'but I want to hear it from you'"
"iam not saying anything nannav'"
Arnav did not react ..rather with the same straight face he asked next.
"payal called you three days prior to your arrival here, what did she tell u?"
NK looked up in surprise'"why didn't u ask payal?"
"simple'she is not here now"
"well'ask her when she gets back! COZ I AINT TALKING!"
"NK'" the voice was lighter.."its important for me to know..there are things to sort out.."
"I don't care'its not important to me"
"then what is?..or should I ask who is?" Arnav tried to control the venom
"u can ask as much as u want but I aint replying ARNAV!"
it hurt arnav to hear his name though he had hated his friends version from him
With that NK got up and opened the door only to find lavanya at the door'
"nope'u r not leaving without the answers, get back in " with that la pushed him back inside..
"what is wrong with u you woman!" nk cried as he hit his leg somewhere and fell hard on his back.
"lavanya?"
"ASR, I want answers too'what is wrong with chamkeeli?, she is not at all herself!, Did you force her into this marriage? Didn't you propose her and romance her? Or did you make a DEAL out of that too?"she joked with her hand on her hips..
"Oh he made a DEAL alright! Tell her AA..S..R..!!, about your six month marriage deal!" NK bit out as he felt his leg going numb..he doubted that he had broken his leg since the pain only seemed to grow..
Three people stood openmouthed at his retort'.
"A six month marriage!...poor thing!of course what else could she expect from ASR! lavanya could still remember khushi s dreams about her wedding..the rituals'"oh god!"
But arnavs thoughts were overspeeding "she told him? Was NK important enough for her to open her secrets?..did they like each other?was tht what brought NK here?""but she wouldn't tell payal would she?aarghh..his head was on the verge of explosion when he heard a voice and he went cold'..
"So its true? huh arnaw bitwa? mamis voice broke through the silence'
"how did'but '"so everyone knew! As this realization dawned upon him'.his anger rose'she went about making sure everybody knew..didnt she?he had specifically told her that she shouldn't speak.. but she had defied him'u'll pay for this khushi!..he thought silently.
He looked upto mami once again but she dint seem to want an answer.
Mami swiftly left for nanis room to inform her of the happenings, but not finding her in her room sat down on the bed in heavy thought'..so phatti saree is not the culprit! She is the victimwa! But damaadji!? Should I inform the others of what I found out? Manorama thought that though she might appear to be a stupid woman 'well.. when put it this way.. she was a stupid woman for not approving of gems like khushi and payal, but it must have been because she saw herself in them.. the rags to riches story'.and she knew what it was like' to feel out of place' she hid it well under her pretense of extreme stupidity but sometimes she just got carried away'she had wanted a better and sophisticated girl for his akash'one he would not feel ashamed to show off ' one who could help him out when he is left out weak and she had seen only a sixteen year old herself in payal until today'.but today she saw was what she had always wanted in akash's wife the manorama raijjadas ""dee-eye-elll"" aka daughter in law'but how could she just drop the facade all of a sudden and she is so used to taunting her that she didn't think she could drop it'on the whole she wont ..it was fun! clapping her hands twice like a child'and she looked upto see nani staring at her as if she had gone mad..
"woh kya hain na sasumma'.wo..' ha wo maine sapna dekha ki six month marriage phatti saree ki bajai khoon bari tang aur akash bitwa ke beech main thi aur climax me main use hello hi ke bajay tata bbye bye kar rahi thi!...hihi"she bit her tongue as she saw her saasuma looking at her with pure rage
'"MANORAMA!!""..
forgetting what she had arrived here for she ran off the room scared of her saasumas wrath!
