Sanskar: My Kidnapper – chapter 4

Laksh’s POV.

Finally after getting Aadhya into my arms and my conversation with Swara, I dropped her off to her room, for which she couldn’t make out the way.

“your dinner will be sent right here. No need to come out… ” I said sternly, before I quit her room.

She didn’t seem to argue and I was happy with that.
This was my first ever experience in kidnapping and I hope everything goes well.
Never had I met someone like Mr. Gadodia, never had my brother had a enemy like him.

And this girl was totally nuts to get into my wits. Well, have you ever seen someone updating you before kidnapping you?
That was hilarious.

I’m happy that Aadhya finally got someone to play with. Me, being one among the directors of the company, was not at all able to pay attention to her. And Ragini had a project going on. My brother, he travelled all along the globe, for deals and etc. This was being really tough on Aadhya’s part.
She had no one to play with and for the same I had to name a babysitter.
My worries are finally, decreased.
But not ceased. I can’t really trust Swara with the whole matter of kidnapping. She’s not the one who’d sit quiet, after all this. She does have something in her mind. I could tell that after what all I’ve seen through the cameras today.

It doesn’t yield her anything even if she gets to know it before. Anyway, my brother might break-in in a day or two. Hope things go better with her. She has to tune herself for his temperament, before something goes out of hands.

Aadhya kissed my cheeks to gain my attention. I smiled, rocking her in my arms. She didn’t expect an undivided attention for herself. She was fine with whatever she had.
I thought not to give in when she kissed me again sweetly. I couldn’t help but smile at her way of demanding attention.

“lask…. ” she calls me and I chuckled. Had she ever called my name properly?

“laksh… ” I corrected.

“lakssshhh… ” she dragged.

I laughed at her while she joined me.

“swawa, play wit me…. ” she says happily.
I smiled.

“do you like her? ”

She nods, excited.

“she tell story, play wit me”

“good. Finally you got a friend. “I tickled her.
She cheered rocking in my arms.

My phone rang and I shifted her in my arms to get a hold of my phone.

It was my brother, Sanskar Maheshwari.

“hello, bro..”

“yeah!! Is she fine? ”
I rolled my eyes.

“bro, you’ve kidnapped her for four days only. And once you’re here, you’ll have a heart attack seeing her behavior. I bet on it. ”

“it’s not that I care for her. It’s just… I cannot answer her father if something goes wrong… ”

“nothing can go wrong when I’m here… ” I said with a pride and I bet he’d have rolled his eyes.

“anyways, how’s Aadhya?”

“she’s here for you…. You can speak if you want? ” I teased. I knew he’s dying to talk to her since three days. But the little one was too angry to listen to him.

“you bet, I do wanna talk to her. ”

I laughed.

“wait let me put it on speaker… ”
Aadhya shook her head vigorously.

“no… ” she said. She hardly understood our words, but this was a matter that she understood very well.

I chuckled, turning the speaker on and placing her on the couch in the living room.

I kept my phone next to her and whispered a yes for him to start.

“hello baby? ” he said, sweetly.
Aahh… I so wish he’d called me this way when I was young.

“laksh…. Don’t be jealous. ” he said laughing. He knew me way too well.

Aadhya pouted.

“I no talk…. ”

“Aadhya? ”

“Aadhya, asbent.”
I held my laughter and the urge to correct her.

“Laksh? She doesn’t want to talk to me. So, I you and ragini get all of the chocolates that I’m bringing with me!! ” he declared.

“sure… ” I said looking at her intently.

She tossed her head and rolled her eyes. She pouted and her eyes started welling up. 

“daddy… ” she finally whispered and he released a breath of relief.

I bet his eyes were filled. Because so were mine. Aadhya had never seen her parents and she thought Sanskar as her dad.
Sanskar was extremely happy on that day when she had finally called him, her daddy. I was with her for a year. But he was with her from her birth.

He spoke to her for a while and convinced her to stay quiet until he returns before he held the call. It was so difficult for him to leave her. But it was rather difficult to take her along with him.

Swara’s POV.

The door thudded opened when I was almost at the brink of sleep, to reveal me to a body, taller than that of mine. Nothing was completely visible as the light was off.
I motioned to turn it on when I heard the voice.

“it’s me, Laksh. I want a favor… ” he said as I switched it on.

“yes? ”

“I want you not to come out of your room tomorrow. And it’s just for tomorrow. ”

I was confused.

“why?”

“because I said so. ” he said sternly before he left.

Things were being very confusing. The little girl wouldn’t give the information for anything you offer. She’s been trained well. But she is the little bundle of joy for me to blame her. I had never been with a kid before. It was such a fun being around her that I forgot how time passed by.

I restrained my thoughts for the night and I switched the light off, slipping into my bed.

It was around 11, in the morning, the next day, when a guard, well built, came into my room with a knock.

“ma’am, you’ve been called to the room in the ground floor. ” he said.

I nodded and followed him. I was brought to a room much larger than which I was in. With Aadhya’s, Laksh and Ragini’s photo around. The bed was larger than mine. It seemed as if around eight people of my size could easily fit in.

“please take your seat ma’am… ” he said motioning me to the couch nearby and was gone within seconds.

I sat on the couch glancing all along the room, wondering who would have called me here. Laksh maybe. What may be the matter that he wants to discuss with me? I was slightly terrified thinking this may not be him and it’s someone else. I held onto my trembling hand by the other which by itself had started trembling.
My brain laughed at me while my heart thudded in fear.

All out of a sudden, I hear a voice reading out something and I turn my face to get a sight of the TV running.

“the lady in the photo is Swara Gadodia. She’s been missing or as her father, the successful businessman, Mr. Shekar Gadodia says, has been kidnapped by one of his opponent. He states that he had last seen his daughter exiting his office at around 8:30 at night, on Monday. He says he is constantly trying to get any of the information about her but after getting no idea to pursue, he is renouncing. He had called out for the help from the police department who now, say that they’re trying really hard to get a clue about her. ” the news reader said, as my photo was displayed.

My eyes pricked after seeing my dad as tears threatened to flow. I had held on to myself a way too longer than I thought it was possible. True he had slammed me, scolded me, and even thrashed me, compared me to the garbage. But he was my dad for god sake.

“finally, your dad is facing something! ” I heard a familiar voice. But it was not laksh this time. It was….. Sanskar Maheshwari.
How was he here? What does he have to do with my father?

He laughed maniacally.

“Finally shekar gadodia is facing a problem. I bet he’ll be shattered soon… ”

My throat went dry as his outburst. What did my father do that he hates him so much?

“what are you doing here? ”

“angel, you’ve been kidnapped by me. The great and young entrepreneur, Sanskar Maheshwari. Remember the letter? ”
Now, it was confirmed. I knew he had something to do with the letter. I so had a doubt on him.

“why? ” I whispered as my eyes traveled all along his hot demeanour. I scolded myself for checking on him.

“because, I have a reason. Anyways, I called here to warn you that of you’re caught doing something unfavorable, your dad will be thrashed.” he said gritting his teeth.

He walked to me and gripped my jaw, bending so that his face was mere inches apart from mine.

“I would cut him into pieces and I know you don’t want that. ” he said looking straight into my eyes.

My eyes watered and I trembled in his touch. My legs started shaking as he neared me.

“I want us to get married! And that would be tomorrow. I want you told talk in front of the media that you were in love with me and had run to me when your dad had brought up a marriage proposal. I want to tie up with you for life, just to make a hell out of your father’s life. If you don’t accept, I wouldn’t like to repeat what I already said. ”

I shook as my body gave up. I moaned in pain as his grip tightened every second.

“I would rather like you be silent. ” he said pushing me away and walked out of the room.
“you can go.. ” he said before exiting.

I sat here helplessly.

He was not like this when I’d known him. He was entirely an other person. It was him who thought me what love is and today, it was totally an other way round.
Bringing my legs up on the couch, I sat there hugging them, crying inconsolable.
