"He don't look at others girls, he do look at others girls!" Sanyukta said those words when plucking the rose petals at her room.

After Randhir left for office Sanyukta was very unmindful, all the time only one thing ran in her mind. She became restless thinking what will Randhir do. She even cut her finger when chopping vegetables.

"He don't, he do!" She continue.

"He do!" Sanyukta's face got fall as that's the last patel.

"Ek minute what am doing, wo kisi vi ladki ko dekhe mujhe usse keya! Wo kuch vi kare mujhe koi phadak nehi padta!" And she threw the rose.

"Mimi yeh aap keya kar rahi ho?" Mishti who observing Sanyukta for last half an hour asked curiously.

"Aare stupid chachi yes or no game khel rahi hain." Rehan replied.

"Wo keya hota hain bhaiya?" Mishti asked confusingly.

"See aagar tujhe koi confusion ho toh ek flower le phir uski ek pankhuri ko tod aur yes bol phir ek pankhuri tod aur no bol aur last wala pankhuri mein jo vi aaye yes yeah no wo result hain." Rehan said to Mishti thus Sanyukta frowned.

"God maa koi kaam vi nehi karne deti aaise khali baithi rahungi toh yeh sab ulta sidha kheyal dimag mein aayega, urghhh!" She became more restless just then Ragini entered with a glass of milk.

"Keya kar rahi ho Sanyukta yeh lo dudh pee lo." Sanyukta made a face to saw the glass of milk.

"Di am sick of this main bimar nehi hu jo aap sab har ek ghante mein mujhe kuch na kuch khilate yeah peelate rahete ho, am just tired of this." She let out her frustration.

"Sorry Sanyukta but mom ne bheja hain aur bola hain ke pura peene ko, kitna saara khoon nikal geya hain na body se tumhari!" She giggled when Mishti and Rehan laughed too.

"Aare yeh room mein itne gulab ke pankhuri!" Ragini asked confusingly.

"Wo chachi na yes-no wali game khel rahi thi." Rehan replied thus Sanyukta felt embarrassed.

"Tum dono aabhi tak yeah keya kar rahe ho school nehi jana?" Sanyukta asked angrily.

"Sanyukta school mein summer vacation chal raha hain." Ragini replied.

"Bachcho tum jake aapna aapna homework karo." Ragini said thus both kids left.

"Sanyukta tum bekar mein tension le rahi ho don't worry Randhir kisi ladki ki taraf aankh utha kar vi nehi dekhega!" Ragin smirked when Sanyukta's cheeks turned red.

"Nehi di aaisa kuch nehi hain, main aaisa kuch nehi soch rahi thi." She said hesitatingly.

"Achchha toh yeh game kiss khushi mein khel rahi thi, pehele toh kabhi nehi dekha?" Sanyukta has no answer of Ragini's questions.

"It's came out from jealousy Sanyukta, aur jealousy toh wohi hota hain na jaha thoda bahut care ho, pyar ho!"

"Main Randhir se pyar nehi karti, aap galat soch rahi ho. Waise vi humara rishta sirf naam ka rishta hain." Sanyukta said slowly.

"Sanyukta I know Randhir ne galat kiya hain aur usse uss baat ki regret vi hain. Aur aaj jab wo aapna galti sudharna chahata hain keya tum usse ek chance nehi de sakti?" Ragini asked thus Sanyukta looked at her with moist eyes.

"Di aapke dil mein mere liye chahe kitna vi humdardi ho lekin bahen toh aap Randhir ki hi ho, issi liye aap uska side le rahi ho na! Aagar main aapki sagi bahen hoti tabvi keya aap yehi bolti?" Sanyukta started crying when Ragini felt bad, she really don't want to hurt her.

"Sanyukta am sorry but I really don't want to hurt you, you are like my sister main tumhara bura nehi sochungi." Ragini said out of guilt.

"I know di it's just past ko bhulana itna easy nehi hain mere liye." She wiped her tears.

"I know, okay don't cry take rest." She caressed her cheek and left when Sanyukta looked at those rose petals on the floor.

Ragini came out and went to Anjali's room, she told her everything.

"Bhabhi shayed mujhe Sanyukta se aabhi iss were mein baat nehi karni chahiye thi." Ragini sighed.

"Haan Ragini, it's hardly three months they got married. Sanyukta ke zakham aabhi vi taza hain, Randhir ne jo vi kiya hain usse bhulne ke liye waqt chahiye Sanyukta ko, she needs time to heal." Anjali said sadly.

"Bhabhi kabhi kabhi darr lagta hain ke Randhir ko punish karne ki chakkar mein kahi Sanyukta khudko na punish kare!" Ragini said worriedly.

Sanyukta was lost in her thoughts when she heard a knock, she look up and saw Arpita stood at the door.

"May I come in?" Arpita asked with a smile.

"Aare Arpita aandar aau na puchne ki keya jarurat hain?" Sanyukta got up from the bed when Arpita came inside.

"Come sit." Sanyukta dragged her and made her sit.

"Chocolate?" Arpita offered a chocolate bar to Sanyukta.

"Thanks." Sanyukta smiled at her.

"You know I love to eat chocolate, I always nagged Ron for chocolates, aabhi aabhi usse bol rahi thi ke office se aate waqt mere liye Ferraro Rocher ki ek huge packet lane ko, after all it's his first day in office treat toh banti hain na!" Arpita smiled brightly thus Sanyukta smiled also.

"Do you need anything main Ron ko call karu?" Arpita asked.

"Nehi koi jarurat nehi hain baar baar call karke disturb karne ki, busy hoga." Sanyukta said hesitatingly.

"Mere call karne se Ron kabhi disturb nehi hoga, our bond is special you know, let me call him." Arpita said purposely and about to call Randhir but stopped by Sanyukta.

"No Arpita it's okay I don't need anything." Sanyukta said slowly.

"Sanyukta what happened upset dikh rahi ho?" Arpita asked innocently.

"No am okay." Sanyukta replied.

"It's okay Sanyukta you don't need to be formal with me, I know you are upset because of Randhir." Arpita said when Sanyukta got confused.

"Keya bol rahi ho tum Arpita, main Randhir ki wajase kyu upset hongi?" Sanyukta asked confusingly.

"Don't pretend Sanyukta I know you felt insecure ke kahi Randhir kisi aur ladki ka attention gain na karle, kisi aur ki taraf attract na ho jaye, tum subha se issi liye tensed ho na?" Arpita asked thus Sanyukta felt awkward.

"Ne-nehi main aaisa kuch nehi soch rahi thi!" Sanyukta almost stammered.

"Kisse jhoot bol rahi ho Sanyukta mujhse yeah aapne aap se! Randhir ko tum vi bahut achchhe se janti ho, school mein vi uski ek girlfriend thi aur college mein kitni saari girlfriends thi yeh toh tumhe pata hi hoga, actually yeh na Ron ki ek disease hain like cold and cough. Wo kisi vi khubsoorat ladki ki taraf bahut jaldi attract ho jata hain!" Arpita said those words when Sanyukta's every cell were burning.

"I tried hard to stop Ron but I can't." Arpita faked sigh.

"Arpita tum mujhe yeh sab kyu bata rahi ho, Randhir aapne life mein keya karta hain keya nehi mujhe isse koi phadak nehi padta!" She said sternly.

"Haan waise vi tum toh yeha aapne delivery tak hi ho uske baad toh tum dono ka divorce hone wala hain toh aagar Ron kisi aur ladki ki taraf attract ho vi jata hain toh tumhe koi problem honi nehi chahiye!" And Sanyukta get numb listening Arpita's words.

"Chalo aag toh maine laga diya Sanyukta aab iss aag mein tum dono ka yeh so called rishta jwal kar rakh ho jayega aur finally mujhe mera Ron wapas mill jayega." Arpita smirked devilishly looking at Sanyukta's blank face.

                                * * * * * * * * *

Randhir reached at the office when everyone gave him a warm welcome.

"Welcome sir to this new family." A middle aged man greeted him.

"Randhir he is Mr. Sinha our senior manager." Rajveer introduced them.

"Hello Mr. Sinha, nice to meet you but don't call me sir as am just a trainee here, call me Randhir." Randhir said when Mr. Sinha nodded positively.

"Okay sir I mean Randhir." He smiled a little.

"Randhir Mr. Sinha tumhe tumhara kaam samjha denge go with him, Mr. Sinha please help him to settle down." Harsh said and left for his cabin.

"Come Randhir that's your desk." Mr. Sinha approached Randhir thus he smiled a little and take step towards his desk.

Roja was chopping vegetables when her phone rang and it's flashed Randhir's number. She saw the name and ignored the call. The phone rang again but she again ignore it. She avoid Randhir since that day when Rajveer told her to stay away from Randhir. She neither called him nor take his calls anymore as she wanted to avoid him totally. Roja was doing her work when her phone rang again and she cut the call this time and switched off it. Randhir who was trying her number got surprised.

"Yeh Roja mera phone kyu nehi utha rahi hain, main kitna excited ho raha hu usse yeh news dene ke liye ke maine office join kiya hain aur wo mera call ignore kar rahi hain!" He was confused by her behaviour.

"Aaj kaal na wo mera call receive karti hain aur na call back karti hain, baat keya hain why is she ignoring me now a days?" Randhir asked himself.

"I think I have to meet her, then I'll get all my answers." He said thoughtfully.

Roja was surprised to saw Randhir at the door.

"What aandar aane ko nehi bologi yehi door par hi khada rahunga?" Randhir asked playfully when Roja looked at him surprisingly.

"Randhir tum?" Roja asked shockingly.

"Haan main, kyu aah nehi sakta?" Randhir asked again thus she look down.

"Now move and let me come in!" He said thus Roja take steps back and Randhir entered.

Both granny and Peter were happy to saw Randhir when Roja was silent. Randhir gave them the news about his job, all get excited when Roja was numb.

"Shit why Randhir came here now his family blame me again." She thought and went towards the kitchen.

Randhir was talking to granny but his mind stuck at Roja's behavior.

"What happened granny is something bothering Roja, she neither take my calls nor even call me back?" Randhir asked surprisingly.

"Don't know beta what happened to her, she behaved so weird now a days!" Granny said worriedly when Randhir decided to talk to Roja about this. Roja was preparing tea when Randhir came at the kitchen.

"Hey what's up?" He asked with a smile when Roja smiled a little then again concentrate on her work.

"What happened Roja, granny was told me that you behaved weird now a days?" He asked straight now.

"Nothing granny must be mistaken." She said not looking at him.

"Then why you avoiding me?" He asked sternly.

"No am not, let me make the tea." She said again not meeting their gaze.

"Let it be, I don't want it." He said irritatingly when Roja turned off the gas and about to go from there when Randhir stopped her.

"Wait first give me the answer why you avoiding me?" He asked firmly.

"Am not avoiding you, am just busy." She said slowly.

"Don't make me fool Roja, tum itni keya busy thi ke mera ek vi call nehi liya yeah phir mujhe call back nehi kiya?" He asked angrily but instead of giving him the answer she was about to go when Randhir caught her hand.

"Where are you going, first give me the answer?" He became impatient.

"Randhir leave my hand!" Roja become irritating.

"No first give me the answer why you avoiding me?" Randhir asked sternly.

"Kyu ki main nehi chahati ke tumhari family members mujh par yeh blame lagaye ke main tumhari aur Sanyukta ke bich mein aah rahi hu! Main nehi chahati ke tumhara aur Sanyukta ka divorce ho and specially meri wajase toh bilkul nehi, understand!" She said furiously when Randhir was stunned by her words.

"What are you saying Roja, why my family blaming you specially for the things which you don't do! Who feed you such things?" He asked surprisingly.

"Randhir just go from here, please I beg on you." Roja pleaded when her eyes became moist.

"No first tell me what happened, who told you such thing? One minute you came to the mansion that day is anyone told you something that day?" Randhir asked coldly thus she lowered her lashes.

"Roja give me the answer." Randhir asked in an icy cold voice thus Roja gulped hard.

"Come on am waiting." Randhir said again thus Roja told him everything. Randhir was shocked to heard that Rajveer told her that things.

"What bhaiya ne tumse yeh sab kaha, main aabhi unse baat karta hu!" Randhir take out his phone when Roja stopped him.

"No Randhir don't, tum unse iss were mein kuch nehi kahoge otherwise unhen lagega ke main tumhe unke khilaf bhadka rahi hu!" She said slowly.

"I'm sorry Roja, am extremely sorry but why don't you told me this before?" Randhir felt bad, he understand that how much she was hurt.

"I don't want to create any misunderstanding between you and your family and specially between you and Sanyukta." She said slowly when Randhir laughed suddenly. He laughed loudly thus Roja got confused.

"What happened Randhir why you laughing?" She asked confusingly.

"Misunderstanding! Tum misunderstanding ki baat kar rahi ho pata vi hain uss din humare bich keya huya tha! Marte marte baach geya tha main, Sanyukta toh mujh par gola-barud leke char geyi thi!" He laughed again and told her about the lipstick marks and all thus Roja's lips also curved into a smile.

"That means Sanyukta also have feelings for you Randhir." Roja said with a smile when Randhir's smile got vanished.

"No Roja, Sanyukta hates me, she don't have any feelings for me." He said slowly.

"Yes she has, otherwise she don't be jealous on me." She said determinedly when Randhir kept mum.

                                * * * * * * * * *

Sanyukta was marching restlessly at their room and checked the time again and again.

"Raat ke 11 baaz rahe hain aur yeh aab tak ghar wapas nehi aaya! Kaha rahe geya itni der tak, Rajveer bhaiya aur papa toh kabke wapas aah geye hain office se!" Sanyukta said in her mind.

"Kahi kisi ladki ke saath toh nehi!" She gulped hard remembering that morning conversation.

"Huhhh huya vi toh I don't care, achchha hi hain koi stupid si idiot si ladki usse jhel rahi hogi!" She twisted her lips and sat down.

"Aagar saach mein kisi ladki ke saath date par geya na toh chhodungi nehi, am still his wife." She gritted her teeth, just then the door of their room was clicked open. She turned around and saw Randhir entered with a bunches of roses and some chocolates.

"You didn't sleep yet?" He asked surprisingly when she went towards him and started checking his shirt.

"What are you doing?" He asked confusingly when she continued. She checked his shirt then started smelling it.

"Hey what are you trying to do, what's wrong with you Sanyukta?" Randhir was hell confused.

"Why does this shirt have a ladies perfume on it? Where were you from evening Randhir? Here am waiting for you and you are more interested to spend time with other girls?" She was fuming in anger when Randhir was stunned by her behaviour.

"Sanyukta you are taking it wrong, wo office mein bahut kaam tha." He stammered.

"Just fuck off your bloody excuses Randhir, mujhe mat sikhau kaam ke ware mein, keya main jaan sakti hu aaj pehele hi din tumhe itna keya kaam tha jo iss waqt wapas aah rahe ho wo vi in flowers aur chocolates ke saath! Kiss girlfriend ne gift kiya hain tumhe yeh?" She asked eyed the things again.

"Nehi yeh toh wo office walo ne as a welcome gift diya hain." He maintain a straight face.

"Achchha office walo ne diya hain aur tum yeh sab uthake ghar mein leke aah geye! Wait a minute why am I dragging this, let me come straight to the point. DID YOU WENT FOR A DATE WITH ANY OF YOUR GIRLFRIEND?" She asked sternly when he just stared at her face surprisingly.

He knew it was only her hormonal problems due to pregnancy but can anyone go this extent with out have any feelings? This came out due to the insecurity or jealousy? He thought confusingly.

"Mera muh keya dekh rahe ho, answer me damn it?" She said loudly.

"Sshhhh Sanyukta, sabko jaga dogi keya?" He said casually and kept the flowers and the chocolates at the center table.

"Yeh mera sawal ka jawab nehi hain?" She said in an icy cold voice.

"Did you drink milk and take your medicines properly?" He asked casually when untied his tie.

"Can't believe you, tum itna coolly behave kaise kar sakte ho?" She raised her brows.

"Toh keya karu nachu?" He asked normally thus she burnt more.

"Kyu aapne girlfriend ke saath dance karke mann nehi bhada jo aabhi vi dance karna hain? Yeha tumhari pregnant wife tumhari wait kar rahi hain aur tum waha aapne girlfriend ke saath romantic date par se aah rahe ho aur besharmo ki tarha uski di huyi gift vi leke aah geye?" She said furiously and next threw the flowers from the window.

"What you just did?" He almost screamed widening his orbs.

"Kyu keya karoge haat uthao ge mujh par?" She said angrily and about to throw the chocolates too when he snatched that.

"Give me back otherwise I'll throw you from the window too." She threatened him and next she was pinned against the wall by him but gently.

"Are you out of your mind, what's this nonsense? Bewakuf kahiki!" He said irritatingly.

"Randhir just leave me, may be girls are your weakness but am not, mujhe kamjor samajhne ki galti mat karna warna main tumhari muh tod dungi." She gritted her teeth when he pulled her.

"Just shut up you dumbo. Am not going to any date with any random girl. If I wish to spend some romantic time with anyone it will be with my wife only, do you get that?" She felt summer saults in her stomach to listening him when he looking at her eyes only.

"And yeah of course that flowers, wo mujhe meri kisi girlfriend ne nehi but Roja ne tumhare liye bheja tha, tumhe congratulation bolne ke liye for the good news aur tumne wo phek diya, just like that?" He said thus she lowered her lashes.

"Arpita ki chocolates cupboard mein rakh deta hu warna pata nehi kahi innko vi dustbin mein na phek de!" He said and went to the washroom after kept the chocolates inside the cupboard when she stood there totally confused.

What did he mean by that? Did he really said that he wants to spend some romantic time with his wife? She was confused by his words but his words gave her some kind of solace.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
