Chapter #21
Ishika overhears Anamika and Vineet talking. She woke up and went into the kitchen to have some water when she heard sounds from the master bedroom. She finds Anamika telling the days' happening to her husband. She also feels the disappointment in Anamika's voice when she tells him how Ishika thanked her. She has felt bad about how Ishika didn't take her as her sister. Also, he says that he won't let go of Ishika. The girl is thoughtful.
She moves into her room and settles on the bed.
She remembers the past days, yeah, she remembers that she has met them before but she didn't remember the precious bond that she has made with these two, especially Anamika. She remembers how carefully Anamika has been taking care of her. Today too, she(Anamika) said that she's always there with her. Naman also scolds her for talking coldly with Anamika.
"She's taking care of you. Dil ka rishta banaya tha unhone tumse. Tum unko aise kaise bol sakti ho!?"
"Dil ke Rishtey sabse sundar hote hain. You are lucky tumhe aisa rishta mila."
"Main toh hamesha rahungi. Tum meri behen ho, ye baat koi nahi badal sakta. Toh apni Di ko kaun thank you bolta hai, Haan!"
Ishika sighs, she remembers each and every statement of Anamika and also the words she said to Vineet.
"Wo thik ho gayi, par wo hume bhul gayi. She thanked me!"
"Usne meri zindagi mein choti behen ki kami puri ki, aur ab wo hi! Wo door ho gayi mujhse."
"We knew it would come, Ana! Aur tum kyun chinta karti ho!! Ishika kahin nahi jayegi. Abhi wo yahin rahegi hamare sath."
Anamika and Vineet's words echo in her ears. She remembers how they tackled her, the other day when they went on dinner, and today, she just let go of them, she just marked it as a deed of humanity, when it's way more than that. The pain and disappointment in Anamika's voice has alarmed her. Vineet's assurance is genuine, she knows Tears trickle down her eyes. She has hurt her(Anamika). Her trance is broken by Anamika.
"Kahan kho gayi? Are you okay!!" Anamika asks worriedly.
Ishika is sitting on the bed hugging herself, resting her head on her knees. Anamika feels as if the girl is in pain. She asks again and Ishika looks at her for a few moments and pats her head on the bed. Anamika sits beside her while Ishika holds her hands in hers.
"I am sorry." Ishika says meekly.
Anamika is surprised at her words. She looks at Ishika and find her teary eyed. Anamika begins to speak but Ishika cuts her.
"I am sorry. I have hurt you. Maine bas keh diya, kuch socha hi nahi." Ishika apologises.
"Maine tumse kuch kaha? Why are you crying even?" Anamika asks.
"Kuch bhi toh nahi kaha! Main toh bhul gayi thi, I forgot jo Rishtey dil se bante hai wo hamesha rehte hai, aur wo sabse mazboot bhi hote hai. Lekin maine toh ye kaha ki main aapko jaanti bhi nahi, knowing that you cared for me heartily." Ishika says tearily.
"Tumhe itna nahin sochna chahiye." Anamika says in order to buck her up.
"Pehle mujhe maaf karo. Main jaanti hoon i have hurt you. Naman ne mujhse kaha bhi tha, par maine socha hi nahi kuch. Lekin I heard you, maine aapko bahut pareshan kiya hai na! I am sorry. Maine socha meri family ne mujhe chod diya, toh aapne bas meri help ki, aur main akeli… " Ishika is speaking but Anamika puts her hand on her lips.
" Shh! Chup ekdum! Tum toh express train ki tarah bole hi ja rahi ho. Aur kisne kaha tum akeli ho? Main hoon na! Jab tak main hoon, tum akeli nahi ho. You have a family. Samjhi!! Agar dobara aisa kuch kaha toh main sach mein naraaz ho jaungi." Anamika says in a threatening tone.
"Kabhi kabhi galti ho jati hai. Tumne kuch galat toh kaha nahi hai na!! Humara koi rishta nahi hai, lekin tum mujhe bahut pyari ho. Aur phir pyar ke Rishtey toh banaye jaate hai na, jaise hamara rishta!" Anamika says softly.
Ishika looks at Anamika who nods her head affectionately. Ishika hugs her, hiding her face in her shoulder, while Anamika smears her back. Anamika scolds her to not think unnecessarily at which ishika makes a face after parting the hug.
"You scold me so much." she makes a face at Anamika.
"Tum zidd karti ho toh main kya karun!" Anamika shrugs her shoulders.
"Maine kya kiya! I am innocent!" Ishika looks at her.
"Achaa jii! Subah se jo sataya uska kya!!" Anamika eyes her.
Ishika bites her tongue. But then she smiles at her.
"It's fun! Teasing you!" Ishika smiles cheekily.
Anamika glares at her and slaps her arm playfully, but Ishika hugs her and apologises for another time, promising her that she won't repeat her mistake another time. Anamika comforts her and their trance is broken with a deep voice.
Vineet is standing at the door adoring the two ladies in front of him.
He did assure Anamika that things will fall at place, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon. He looks at them, Ishika is still hugging Anamika. He makes a sad face.
"Agar dono behnein mil li hain, toh kya hum khana khaayein?? Bahut bhook lagi hai!" he points towards his stomach.
"Haan! Lekin aapki wife mujhe boring soup toh nahi pilayengi na!!" Ishika says while looking at Vineet.
"Nahi! Maine tumhare liye vegetable Pulaav banvaya hai!" Anamika says impulsively.
Ishika chuckles and they move into the dining space where the table is already led with dishes. They have their dinner. Vineet tells Anamika that he has bagged the other role for which he went on a meeting. The lady is elated with the news. After the dinner, Anamika helps the housemaid to wind up the kitchen and asks Ishika to take her medicines.
Ishika is reading a book when Anamika enters the room. She places a water bottle on the side table. Ishika looks at her.
"I took the medicines." she informs.
"That's good! And yes, no exertion. Jaldi se so jana. Fir Kal hum office jayenge." Anamika says with a smile.
Ishika chuckles and agrees to Anamika who leaves the room assuring that Ishika doesn't need any other thing.
*****
AnVin Room
Anamika enters the room and finds Vineet sitting on the bed, shuffling the channels on the television. She changes her dress and hops into the bed beside her husband. She keeps her head on his chest while he smears her head.
"Happy now?" he asks.
"Yes! She's fine, that's all I want." Anamika says as she puts her hand across his waist.
"Now you should concentrate on me, you know!" he says mischievously, as he kisses her head.
"I do that, everyday." Anamika looks at him.
"No! Aajkal tumhe apni behen se fursat kahan hai??" Vineet says teasingly.
"That's mean! I still find out time for you, Pati!" Anamika glares at him.
Vineet nods his head mischievously which angers his lady love. She gets on her knees.
"You enjoy teasing me! Now face my wrath!" saying so, she seals his lips with hers and begins to kiss him.
Vineet smiles at her act, and holding her from her waist, he rolls over, she is beneath him. She breaks the kiss when she's out of breath, but she hides her face in his chest, and they get lost into their love ful moments.
To Be Continued.
Will everything go smooth in their life??
Stay tuned.
