02. Congratulations
Author's Pov
"Stop the car near a bar." Rocky said, as he shook the empty alcohol bottle upside down.
"It's election time, Sir. There won't be any bars open today." The driver replies, as he slowly rolled down the car to a stop.
The driver peered his head out through the window to have a better look at the surrounding. A frown married his face as his gaze fell on people running away with panic and fear written across their faces.
"Hey, hey, why are you running? What happened?" The driver asked, pulling a panic stricken man towards him.
"It's Rajendra Desai's daughters, Sir. They have blocked the road and are partying there." The man blurted, pointing towards the path he had ran away from. "They are beating up everyone going that way." The man screamed out, running away from there.
Rocky tilted his head and looked at the running man with confusion filled eyes. Before he could ask about it to the driver, someone started banging on the window of the car distracting him from the run away man.
"Sir! Sir help me. Help me." A beaten up man appeared before him. "Sir please help me." He cried out as the goons dragged him away.
Rocky just continued staring at the man with a bored expression on his face. Well this is not the first time he had been in this kind of situation. Sighing, he opened the car door and got out.
"No sir! Please don't go there to save him sir. They are not good people. They will kill you. We will go from here sir. Sir!" Rocky could hear the driver shout behind him as he walked towards the 'potential' danger.
His eyes skimmed over towards where the goons were beating up some poor guy who had apparently dared to disturb the party. He continued forward not paying any heed to the cries of the man, who was being trashed nearby.
He stopped before the barricade, benting forward to grab a bottle for himself. And after that everything happened in slow motion for him. He jerked his head up, the bottle in his hands slipping down as he his wandering eyes stopped on the girl dressed in black.
She was standing there, laughing freely at something the girl in golden dress has said to her. She took a sip from the bottle in her hands before saying something which had clearly infuriated the girl dressed in gold.
With unsteady steps he walked towards them, his eyes unblinking and a goofy smile plastered on his face. He circled around her, his eyes taking in her features with passive curiosity. Soon, he stopped before the girls still looking dazed.
"Congratulations." He announced, his penetrating gaze prowled over her face and pounced on her eyes making her feel conscious.
"Why?" The girl in black asked, her voice, so soft it skimmed his skin, threatened to ensnare him.
"I love you." He confesses looking straight into her eyes.
Silence.
Everything stilled around them as soon as he uttered those words to her. The people enjoying the party, the goons, the beaten up man, all stilled at their places and looked at the trio in complete shock.
"How dare you?" The girl beside her, dressed in gold, fumed looking at him with burning eyes.
"How fair her." He utters back, in his broken english, not taking his eyes off the girl before him. How can he look away from her when her magnet like eyes keeps attracting him.
Shravani looks at his with wide eyes. This was the first time in her entire 23 years of living, a guy has dared to walk up to her and confess his feelings for her. But soon her shocked expression was changed into one of understanding, he was drunk. She could smell alcohol on his breath, as he spoke.
'He is blabbering, Shravani. He is drunk. He doesn't know what he was saying nor whom he is speaking to.' She concluded looking at him with pity.
Whereas uncontrollable fury bubbled up in Reena's chest at his words. "What are you guys looking at? Come and finish him off." Reena orders, pointing her finger towards Rocky.
No sooner that the words were uttered, two goons jumped over the barricade and ran towards Rocky, screaming. But unfortunately for them the guy they were charging towards was no less. He raised his hand and hit the two goons making them fall on the ground screaming in pain.
"Ah! Where was I? Oh yes! I'm already deathed, darling." He utters in his broken english making Shravani take a step back.
One by one the goons changed towards him grabbing hockey sticks, knifes, chains and whatever they could get, while Rocky stood there unarmed, but all ready to take down the men single handedly. He caught hold of one in a choke hold, breaking his neck. Passing Shravani a cocky smile, he continued punching and kicking the rest viciously making the groans and screams of the thugs to echo through the silent night.
Shravani looked on. She could clearly see that the guy before her was not scared or fazed by the thugs charging towards him. She took a sip from her bottle and continued watching him trash the goons like a pro. If she says, she wasn't impressed by the way he was fighting, then it would be an utter lie.
"Stop smiling, Shravani. You are encouraging that scoundrel." Her sister hissed furiously at her. .
"I'm not smiling." She claimed, looking away making Reena roll her eyes at the latter's childish behaviour.
Reena could clearly see the admiration in Shravani's eyes for the rogue who was currently breaking the bones of her father's goons. This is not good. Not good at all. She won't let her sister fall into the trap of a road side rogue like him. He is not worth of her sister and she needs to make both him and her sister realize that.
Reena snapped her fingers, successfully gaining his attention. "Seems like this is your first visit to Bangalore. You still doesn't seem to know who we are," She deduced. "So once you finds out, don't you dare run away because wherever you go, my father will find you and drag you to this same road and kill you."
"Sister-in-law, I don't have the habit of running away. My trait is to chase and hunt." He replied.
"Sister-in-law? Who is your sister-in-law?" Reena asked, looking all set to kill him with her burning gaze.
"Of course, you." He replied cheekly before his gaze shifted away from her to Shravani who was looking at him with wide eyes.
Shravani didn't know whether to praise him for shutting up her sister or punch him for talking to her sister like that. But for the time being decided to stay silent and watch the scene unfolding before her eyes.
"Darling, generally I have seen a lot of fiends, but this is the first time I'm meeting a kill lady, who has successfully killed me with her looks." He exclaimed as he made his way towards her, swaying slightly. His expressions were so funny that Shravani had a hard time controlling the chuckle that threatened to escape her lips.
"Love deeply going inside. I," He cut himself off. "Shut up, Rocky. Shut up. Shut up." He murmured to himself, shaking his head like a child.
He glanced up at Shravani after gaining control of himself, "What did you say you father's name was? Rajendra Desai? He had looked after you very well but don't worry darling I will look after you even better. I won't go anywhere away from you. I will be coming soon." He said, his voice thick and husky.
Shravani shivered understand the underlying meaning behind his words. He is not good for her, he is just like them, a bloodthirsty man but that didn't seem to stop her from getting lost in his brown orbs nor admiring him.
Taking a good pleasing look at her, he turned around and looked at the beaten up goons.
"Hey!" He roared making the men lying on the ground to flinch back in fear. "From now onwards her father is my father-in-law, I'm your brother-in-law. Take good care of your sister."
Passing her a final wink, he walked away from the scene grabbing a barrel of beer. He whistled away quite happily as if he hadn't just caused a scene quite a few minutes back.
Shravani sighed. She looked at her sister only to find her glaring furiously at the guy. "Leave it Reena. He is drunk. Tomorrow when the alcohol drains off his senses, he will understand who he had messed with. And soon he will flee away like a deer. Now stop spoiling your mood because of that guy and enjoy the party."
"Leave it? Just wait till I inform about him to Kamal. How dare he? Anyways let's go back home. That rogue has spoiled my mood completely." Reena said, glaring at the path he had left.
Shravani frowned looking at her sister. She knew her sister won't leave this matter that easily. Poor guy, whoever he was, his fate is sealed. Now only God can save him from the fury of her sister's anger.
