raghu came upstairs and unlocked the door..
he came inside..
the room was full of dark..
when he was out she never switched on the light in the evening..as someone could see her..
there was a single beam of moonlight coming from the ventilator
in that white light...raghu saw her sitting on the bed..leaning her head back..
raghu kept staring at her..
he walked towards her and saw her...her eyes were moist and she was looking pale...
his heart wrenched seeing her condition..
he turned on the light..
with sudden light in room..antara got scared...she got up with a jerk..
she was about to run somewhere..but as she turned..she saw him..and she stopped and sat back on the bed...
she lowered her head.. wiped her tears immediately and held the bed sheet tight in her hands..
raghu din't ask her anything..
he knew that she has been through a lot.. and he can't expect her to forget everything in a day..
you can cover the window with curtains and then you can turn on the light..he said...
ok..
raghu looked at her and then walked towards kitchen..
you din't get ready?? he asked..
she looked at him...
I am ready..
it will take 4 to 5 hours to reach there..wear something that you are comfortable in..
she nodded in yes...
he kept the bags in kitchen n came back...
ummm.. i have that jeep only...so out there u might feel cold in that...
and i brought these medicines and ointment...
it will be better if you do dressing on your wounds..
she looked at him with moist eyes... she couldn't utter a single word..
but her eyes were speaking louder...she was thankful to him for everything he did for her..
and everything that he was doing..
raghu put the medicines on bed.. he opened his closet and took a bag from it..
he cleaned the dust from it and checked if it was ok..
he gave that bag to antara and asked her to keep her stuffs in that...
i don't need this.. as i have nothing to carry..
raghu looked at her.. you please take those suits with you.. i brought them for you only...
here those will be of no use... and he gave that bag to her...
you please get ready and do the dressing..
she took her suit and medicines and was to about to go into the bathroom..
it's ok.. you can change here.. i'll be in kitchen..
there is no space in the bathroom.. you won't be able to do the dressing..
he said and without waiting for her reply he came into the kitchen and closed the door..
he asked her to lock it from outside..
and then he started to cook something...
he did preparations for dinner and cooked the vegetables..
after 15-20 minutes.. he heard some sound..
and his hands stopped...
she opened the door... he took a deep breath and turned..
antara looked at him and her brows were frown..
his face was full of sweat.. she was about to wipe it and was about to ask
but she stopped and she took two steps back..
her heartbeat was increasing...
raghu felt the tension between both and he left from the kitchen...
he came in the bathroom.. washed his hands and face and came out...
khana almost ban gaya hai.. i'll get ready in 15 minutes..
phir bas dinner kar ke nikalte hai..
ok..??
she shook her head in approval...
raghu opened his closet and took his clothes..
he was walking towards the bathroom when he saw the medicines and open bandage on table..
he stopped... he tools low steps towards bed and put his clothes on corner of bed...
he picked cotton and dettol and looked at her...
"baitho..." he called her in very soft yet firm voice...
she walked towards him with slow steps..
he dimmed the light..just made it enough to see her wounds...
she sat on the bed and sat behind her maintaining enough distance between them..
she moved her plait aside..
raghu held the zip of her kurti and slid it down slowly...
a lone tear escaped from her eye... and he knew that...
he cleaned her wounds with dettol without touching his fingers on her body..
yesterday raghu was out for all day and night.. he couldn't do bandage.. so wounds on her back were in worse condition..
he tried not to hurt her.. but it was necessary to clean them properly..
he changed the cotton and again cleaned them in deep.. and she hissed in pain..
tears rolled down on her cheeks...
she clutched the bed sheet in her small fists...
she leaned back in pain.. but he stopped her holding her shoulder.. but immediately removed her hand..
bas..2 min...
raghu applied the ointment and it felt like burning
she cried in pain.. raghu bent towards her a bit and blew air on wounds while applying the medicine...
her face was blank for a moment.. it actually felt relieved...she closed her eyes and released the bed sheet..
when he saw her sitting calm.. he realized what he was doing.. he stopped and moved back...
he took the bandage and did all required dressing.. he then closed her zip carefully and got up..
ho gaya..!! he said..
raghu picked first aid box.. she got up and asked for the box..
i'll do this.. he gave the box to her.. took his clothes and went in to the bathroom to hv a shower..
he came inside, took his clothes off and turned on the shower..
after a very long time he started to feel that he was not alone..
but today again he realized that nothing is in his control and it never was...
he was upset today... very upset..
this cold shower din't help him at all..
and he felt some warm tears on his cheeks mixing with the cold water...
she will leave today.. and i'll be all alone.. again...he thought..
he din't want to let her go.. but he had no rights to stop her..
i just want her to stay safe and happy.. and here she won't get either..
it's better for her if she goes back to her family...
she won't feel alone there.. he thought and turned the shower off...
he put his clothes on and came out..he saw her arranging the plates...
she served the food...but he stopped her..
i'm not hungry.. u hv ur dinner...
i'll take after some time..
what happened?? she asked him..
nothing.. he din't want to hv dinner with her..because tomorrow he will miss the same thing...
thoda sa kha lijiye.. phir kabhi raaste mien koi jagah na mili to...
hmm.. he said.. he din't either want to argue with her...
they both had the dinner... she took the plates to wash but he stopped her..
he was not showing but he was getting angry with having every thought that she is leaving..
he threw plates in kitchen and came out...
he took a shawl of his, picked her bag and keys of his jeep and came out..
she followed him...
he locked the room..
he checked carefully that no one was out there in bast..
he kept the bag and shawl on back seat and helped her to sit on front seat..
he started his jeep and drove towards her uncle's house...
