PART-1
Kalpana Jadhav had made up her mind today; she was not going
to keep silent now. Something had to be done before it was too late and her
life became a silent film. She would teach that devilishly handsome man a good
lesson. "Enough, why is he such a dumbass? I cannot take it anymore, I mean
what's wrong with me?" pacing in front of the double bed in her room, Kalpana
was highly pissed off now. Giving a pause to her self-talks for a while,
Kalpana stopped in front of the large mirror, taking in her reflection. She
studied her face first while moving it side to side and then looked at her
whole self. "Hmm, I am...not...bad!"
a small smile came on her lips as she gained some confidence. Soon her small
smile turned into a wide one "In fact, I
am quite good" Kalpi grinned. Even in a daily wear long skirt and T-shirt
Kalpana could make out that despite her dusky complexion she has a blessed
beauty. Never the one to cry over complexion, Kalpana was always a confident girl
about her looks. Kalpi had never let some other people's remarks about her
skin-tone form the scar of a complex inside her.
Being a realist Kalpana always admired both true physical
and inner beauty of other girls, but she valued herself. Thanks to her mother
Neetu Jadhav, Kalpana had grown up to be a true Indian traditional beauty with
contemporary outlook. Generally seeing always happier side of life, today was
an exception for Kalpi though. In fact past few weeks had many such moments
when Kalpi had felt like banging her head on the walls of her bedroom. But
today all record of her patience had broken, she cannot take in his ignorance
towards herself anymore.
They'd met in a neighborhood cafe, along with two of their
common friends: Sammy and Maya. All the while Kalpi had kept observing his
different facial expressions as he talked to Sammy & Maya. Sometimes he
teased Sammy, sometimes he was calm and sometimes their friends managed to
irritate him for a few moments. But most of all Kalpi had loved his smile; even
now in her anger a smile had spread on Kalpi's lips on remembering the magnetism
of that smile. And then, there were his eyes "even Pacific Ocean would fail in front of the depth of his eyes"
Kalpi thought drooling on him. But the frown returned on her face when she
remembered what had happened next. "He
doesn't speak to me as he should" Kalpi had thought sadly, "at most we look like two good friends, same
old casual jokes; conversations. Why doesn't he understand we have much more
between us, in us?" Kalpi was frustrated now.
Afterwards Sammy and Maya had taken their leave and being
immediate neighbours Raghav and Kalpana had walked back together. Thankfully it
was one of the few precious pleasant months of the year and Kalpi had enjoyed
the cool sea breeze touching her. Raghav had smiled looking at Kalpana; and
they had continued their pleasant conversation.
Between the neighborhood market and their colony, there was
a little lone patch where the only sound Kalpi heard was that of rustling of
leaves. It was dark and Kalpi had immediately held on to Raghav's hand. He'd
given a little squeeze to Kalpi's hand before leaving it. "I am here with you" were the only words he'd said. "I know that" Kalpi had hissed before
adding "but right now that is not enough."
She was angry at Raghav's lack of understanding of her fear and because this
was one of many incidents where Kalpana had felt Raghav was avoiding her
deliberately.
"Kalpi I..." Raghav
had tried making peace with Kalpana and tugged fingers of her left hand. But
Kalpi had pulled her hand away, saying "leave
it. I will go by myself from here" and she had started walking ahead of
Raghav in a faster pace. Her anger and hurry to reach home before Raghav didn't
let Kalpana focus on her path properly. In the dark things weren't easier and
Kalpi's plans to take out her anger on Raghav had failed when a pit came in
way, dug to instill some pipeline. "Kalpi
stop, we'll go together" Raghav was saying. "No I am a big girl, I don't need you. You can come..." And the words
died in her mouth when one of her feet sensed air beneath them instead of
ground. Both her and Raghav's eyes had widened "Oh..." she'd screamed and then closed her eyes, preparing herself
to fall.
But no, she felt a pull on her left hand and soon she was
enveloped in two strong arms, very close. Even air wasn't passing between them
and Kalpi's heart which was beating fast out of fear first, had continued to beat
fast out of nervousness and excitement. This is what she'd wanted, to be close
to Raghav, near him. Though to be actually in his arms was a completely
different feeling, she'd felt goose bumps all over her. She saw the fear of her
eyes reflecting in Raghav's and felt it in his hold on her waist. He was
scolding her "at least look where you are
walking even if you are angry. What would have happened if you had fallen?"
Kalpi could only look in daze at Raghav, feeling him so close to her she was
unable to comprehend what to do, feel the pleasure or blush in her cheeks. "I, I, I am sorry" Kalpi had said and
felt his arms relaxing around her. It was then that Raghav had realized the
effect of their proximity. He'd looked down at their proximity and then in
Kalpana's eyes. She saw Raghav clenching his jaws for a second and then
unceremoniously left Kalpi's hold by pushing her away. He didn't let his hold
on her arm go though, saving Kalpana from stumbling. Kalpi could do nothing
except fuming internally and looking at Raghav with her narrowed eyes.
"I am sorry. I should
have been more careful too" Raghav had said under his breath, his tone
carrying a strange firmness. Kalpi's head felt a sudden ache in her heart at
Raghav's words. He needn't say the unsaid, that he should have been more
careful in maintaining the distance with Kalpana. "Why me?" Kalpi couldn't help but wonder. She had seen Raghav
hugging and dancing with his female business associates in the parties at his
home. But in the monthly get-togethers of their old college friends or any
other function in their colony, his dance with Kalpi carried a formal look. He
had never hugged Kalpi the way he used to hug other girls. This pinched Kalpi
and tonight when she had finally found glimpse of peace in Raghav's arms, he
himself had pushed Kalpi way which had left an incorrigible pain inside her. Even
the loose touch of Raghav's hand on her fingers was unsuccessful in soothing
that pain. She had attempted to pull away her hand saying in a damp voice "I am fine now". But Raghav had slightly tightened
his hold on her hand, adding only four words "No you are not." Kalpi had covered the rest of seven minutes walk
without letting anything from Raghav's side affect her. "But this is it" coming to present Kalpi thought, "it's either this way or that way now.
Raghav Singhania, today either I am coming into your life or you are going out
of mine forever." She wiped away the few tears which had trickled down her
face.
**************************************************
It was after 8 PM at
night and Raghav was already late to pick Kalpi up from her home. His hectic
schedule had taken a toll again, and on a night like this Raghav had wished it
was otherwise. He rang the doorbell of Kalpana's home and a maid opened the
door."Memsaab and Saab have already left,
Didiji is in her room, waiting for you" she told Raghav and quickly went inside to inform Kalpi about Raghav's arrival before taking leave for the
day.
They were to attend two functions that day: first was a
marriage of one of their acquaintances in colony. Both their parents had
apparently already left to attend it, and from there Raghav-Kalpi were to leave
together for the monthly get-together of their group from college days. Since they
were already running late, Raghav wanted to leave at the earliest for both the
parties, "Still what is taking her so
much time?" It was five minutes now that he was flipping through pages of
one of the business magazines but there was no sign of Kalpana. So he decided
to go and look for her himself, "maybe
she is still upset with me" Raghav thought. "I should go in and check myself, and try to pacify her" thinking so
he moved his feet in the direction of Kalpana's bedroom. The sound of his shoes
reverberating more in the almost empty confines of home, Raghav reached Kalpi's
bedroom and knocked on the door twice. "Kalpi",
"Kalpi are you ready?" Raghav asked from outside and knocked again but there
was no answer.
Left with no other option Raghav pushed the door slightly
ajar and dared to peep inside. The door wasn't locked so he hoped that he
hadn't intruded into Kalpi's privacy. But what he saw inside perplexed him
more. Inside the room showed its interiors in dark, the only source of light
being a bed lamp. Raghav frowned and now stepped inside, remembering what the
maid had told him, Kalpi was waiting for him inside the room.
Adjusting his pupils to the darkness Raghav tried to gather
some hint about Kalpana. He had just spotted a small light coming from beneath
the bathroom door. "Maybe she is inside"
thinking so he was turning to go back out when he heard a click of door behind
him. Raghav immediately turned back and was even more startled when he saw
Kalpana standing with a hand on her left hip as the lights went on.
***************************************************
"Kalpana? Where were
you? I had come to look for you only" Raghav said. "But...what...are you wearing?"
he faltered looking Kalpana from top to toe. She was wearing a long cloak
and Raghav was confused, "you're supposed
to be dressed for a party!" he exclaimed. Kalpana smirked looking at the
frown on Raghav's forehead, "well I am"
she said moving slowly towards Raghav, holding him still with the eye-contact.
"You are?" Raghav
said and again gave a look to Kalpana. "We'll
have our own party tonight, just YOU and
ME" Kalpi whispered huskily against Raghav, while moving her forefinger on
his cheeks. His eyes widened and he gulped. Looking at the twinkle in Kalpana's
eyes Raghav was getting some idea what this was about. But he didn't want to
believe his assumptions. "This is not
funny Kalpi, we are getting late"
Raghav said.
"Hmm, you are right.
It is late, but only for me. What took you so long baby? I was waiting for you
since past one hour" Kalpi said pulling Raghav's nose lovingly. He took a
step back "you seem...different", "And why are you wearing this cloak, it's
not that cold". Kalpi came closer to Raghav and put her arms around his
neck "it is hot" and winked at him. "Kalpi, what are you doing? Are you fine?
You don't seem to be?" Raghav
said worriedly and tried to walk away from Kalpi. She continued to walk towards
him, "You are right, I am not fine. How
can I be?", "How do you talk with me?
Hello Kalpi, Hi Kalpi, and sometimes it's just a Hi or worse...a nod of your
head. Tell me am I that bad?" she questioned Raghav making him nervous. "Umm, no when did I say that?" Raghav said
rotating and walking backwards towards the door, his eyes looking for a chance
to get out from there. "No, you didn't. But then how do you talk
with other girls? Hellooo, and a Hi with a big smile and a tight hug! And as
if that is not enough, sometimes it is 'Hi Babes'. I mean this is the
limit...you never called me Babes" Kalpi complained, her voice was loud now
and she continued hitting and pushing Raghav backwards. She blocked all his
efforts to open the door and moved him away from it. Her eyes were spitting
daggers and Raghav was afraid to see this avatar of her. He chuckled nervously
"Really? I am sorry. But trust me, I didn't know that I was to call you Babes" Raghav
replied meekly and soon regretted. Kalpi was looking at him with narrowed eyes
and Raghav gulped again. "Sorry" he
murmured.
"Don't worry
sweetheart, I'll give you enough time to be sorry" Kalpi said and gave a gentle
push on Raghav's chest to make him sit on the chair behind. She turned and
Raghav tried to get up. "Today you better not get up Mr.Raghav Singhania"
Kalpi warned Raghav and he sat back on the chair, waiting to see what was next
in Kalpana Jadhav's bag.
She took her cell and played a song on it. "So, you do know how to greet a girl, right?"
saying so she made a move to drop the cloak off her shoulders.

The cloak fell
off Kalpi and onto the rug. Raghav's eyes which were glued to Kalpi moved first
to the fallen cloak and then up to Kalpi. Standing there, dressed in red colour
high-neck lace gown with sleeves, Kalpi was looking gorgeous. They looked into
each other's eyes, and with her hands on her hips Kalpi walked slowly towards
Raghav. She remembered the way she'd seen Raghav hug other girls. Controlling
the sadness engulfing her heart Kalpi moved forward.
Moving her hands from Raghav's chest and shoulders to his
back, Kalpi hugged him, letting herself feel how it is to be close to Raghav.
Startled Raghav took in Kalpi's scent and feel, he raised his hands to hug
Kalpi but then let them drop again. Kalpi broke her embrace but not before
placing a kiss on Raghav's ear. Looking into his eyes she asked him seductively
"what kind of girls do you like? Hmm?"
Raghav opened his mouth to say something then his gaze fell on Kalpi's leg.
She'd kept it on the edge of Raghav's chair and the long slit in her gown
revealed her transparent black stockings. He was still staring at Kalpana's
beautiful leg hidden beneath the stocking when the movement of Kalpi's fingers
to remove the stockings caught his attention.
Surprised to no extent Raghav saw Kalpi slowly roll the
stockings of both legs down. Soon her both legs were bare and Raghav closed eyes
for a moment to control his racing heart. But Kalpi's seductive voice made him
open his eyes again, "what happened baby?
You like the other girls like this, don't you?" she asked Raghav. Her voice
carrying tinges of both hurt and seduction, "Kalpi"
Raghav whispered and she came near him. "I
am here, with you" saying so she winked moving her hands to the edges
of Raghav's coat and removed it. "You don't
need it here" she said "It's going to
be hotter" and Raghav was left thinking "what's it with her today? It seems I am in danger today."
"Want to know how?"
suddenly Kalpi asked and a baffled Raghav asked a counter-question, "what?"
"I mean to ask do you
know how is it going to be hotter?" and in reply Raghav gave Kalpi a
frustrated look. "We can still go to one
of the parties at least. Look even you are ready" Raghav reasoned with
Kalpi, trying to get one chance out of there. But what he saw silenced him for
the next half hour; Kalpi was looking at Raghav angrily and in irritation. "You still think so?" she asked him. "Umm, yes I do" he replied and saw Kalpi
holding two ropes and two stoles. "If you
don't shut your mouth and sit here quietly Mr.Raghav Singhania, I will tie you
up with this and you'll forget to repeat this line" Kalpi said, her antic
had some affect and as she saw Raghav gulping a small smile came on her face. "Better" she said, "let's make things hotter" she whispered against Raghav's ear. She
held Raghav's left hand and placed it at the back-zip of her gown.
Holding Raghav's hand Kalpi made him unzip her gown, and
Raghav was lost in various expressions in Kalpana's eyes. He didn't even know
when the dress was unzipped. Kalpana smiled and slowly-slowly started removing
the dress off her, revealing her beautiful shoulders first. She lowered it
further and Raghav widened his eyes and then closed them. But being a man, curiosity
took him over very quickly and when he opened eyes, the gown had fallen off at
Kalpi's feet. Raghav was watching Kalpi with his mouth agape. What he saw was a
revelation, as Kalpana stood smirking in a corsette pencil black dress. The
dress shaped her beautiful figure beautifully and Raghav couldn't help wander
his eyes at Kalpi from top to bottom. Seeing that her charm had started
working, Kalpi smiled internally. She passed her soft palm across Raghav's
cheeks, and opened her hair which were tied in a bun till now. Her silken
tresses fell on Raghav's face making him close his eyes. The fragrance of her
shampoo and silky feel was the only thing Raghav could feel then. Taking
advantage of this situation, Kalpi unbuttoned top three buttons of Raghav's shirt
and he held her hand on feeling she was touching his skin.
She poured some water from a flower vase onto her palm,
while Raghav watched Kalpi bewitched and in bewilderment. Kalpi watched Raghav
and the incidents when she had seen one or other girl placing a kiss on his
cheeks, that too casually. She smirked, both out of sadness and out of
determination. Raghav's confusion got cleared when Kalpi poured some water from
her palm onto Raghav's cheeks and slowly kissed and sucked it. She saw him
clutching the arms of chair tightly. But couldn't comprehend if it was because
Raghav felt true enjoyment or for some other reason. "I love you so much" Kalpi whispered huskily in Raghav's ears, while
her heart prayed for a life full of lovable moments with him. Her confession
made Raghav open his eyes and he saw Kalpi's doe-eyes gazing with all the love
and affection into his. But before he could react, that expression had changed
into a seductive one again. "Ready for
more" sexily touching Raghav's stubble with her finger Kalpi said. Her hand
reached out behind her back as she unzipped the black dress. This time Raghav's
breathing had stopped as his heart jumped partially out of excitement and
partially to stop Kalpi.
The dress was unzipped and soon Kalpi started removing it
off her body too. "Oh no" Raghav muttered
and closed his eyes, holding his breath for the next adventure. He'd never in
his wildest guesses thought that this night would turn into something like
this. "How to go safe & sound; and in one piece from here? That too without
giving a look to a...a...a...to Kalpi in birthday suit almost!" He was lost in his thoughts when he felt a
mass sitting on his lap, to be precise he knew that it was Kalpana.
