Party
Author’s POV:-
Sejal opened her eyes and then felt her head getting heavy. Keeping her head back on the pillow she took a deep breath. Just when she felt someone’s hand on her hand. Looking around, she tried to look at him. Before she could hold her head, she saw drips attached to her other one. Moving her other hand, she tried to wake up the person.
On feeling her fingers moving, Kabir got up and took a glance at her moving fingers. A smile came on his face. He got up and looked at her, while she was blinking her eyes due to head ache.
Holding her hand, he helped her to sit back straight. She looked at him and a smile came on her lips.
Kabir: I’ll call the doctor.
He said and left from the room. She looked at his retreating figure and then touched the bandage.
Sejal: I know who did this? I swear Veer bhai, I won’t let you win this time.
She closed her eyes and tried to reminisce what all she told them.
Sejal: What will I answer to them now?
Before she could do or think anything she saw the door opening and Kabir entering with a doctor.
Doctor: How are you feeling now?
She heard him and looked up at them.
Sejal: Better now.
She said pressing her lips together.
Doctor: I’ll send the discharge paper. Until then nurse will change your bandage and you can get ready.
Doctor said and was about to leave when Kabir interrupted him.
Kabir: Doctor no need for that. I’ll help her.
Glancing at Sejal, he saw that she don’t have any expression. So he nodded and left from there. Turning back to Sejal, Kabir moved towards her. Holding her arm, he helped her to sit straight. She waited for him to ask anything but his face was expressionless.
Kabir: Don’t move. I’ve to remove the bandage.
He said and started removing her bandage.
Sejal: If you want you can ask me anything.
She said when he didn’t said even a word.
Kabir: I don’t think you will wish to share your problems with me. As even earlier also you loved to hide everything from me.
He said and threw the removed bandage in the dustbin.
Sejal: Kabir, I didn’t mean to hurt you.
She said and looked up at him.
Kabir: But you did in a worst way.
Sejal heard and saw as he scooped her in his arms.
Sejal: Kabir please try to listen to me.
She said and he didn’t even look at her.
Kabir: Go and change. I’m standing here only.
She heard him as he kept her on the floor. She looked up at him to see him turning around but he didn’t move out.
Sejal: Kabir, I’ll tell you everything and that too truth but promise me you’ll help me in it.
She said wishing him to say yes. But he didn’t said even a word. Sadly she stripped out of her medical dress while looking at his back.
Sejal: Where is my dress?
She asked when she didn’t found it near herself.
Kabir: It’s there only. Nurse had told me that she had kept it here only.
Kabir said and looked straight at the closed door.
Sejal: It’s not. Check outside.
She said irritated as chilled air was hitting her bare skin.
Kabir: I can’t leave you here alone. You were attacked last night also.
She irritated looked at his back.
Sejal: Kabir, you don’t want to stay with me. Don’t even want to talk to me. You don’t even will to help me. What the hell you want me to do?
She said and dressed herself back in the same dress.
Kabir: Shut up.
He turned back and looked at her standing just after him. Lifting her up, he brought her back to the room. Making her sit on the bed, he looked around the room. Opening one of the drawer he found her dress kept there only.
Kabir: Hold it.
He said giving her, he was about to lift her up when his leg got tangled with the mat and he fell on the bed with her under him. Before she could hurt herself on her head, he gently kept his hand under her head.
Sejal: Kabir….please listen to me.
She said and saw him looking at her. He was about to get up which irritated her to the worst. Holding his arm, she pulled it to him and smashed her lips on his.
———————————-
Riddhima looked up at Vansh who was sleeping with her in his embrace. She smiled at him and kept her lips on his jawline. He didn’t opened his eyes but pulled her closer to him. Ruffling his hand through her hairs, he caressed her head gently.
Riddhima: I love you…
She said and planted a kiss there.
Vansh: Go and get ready, Kabir must be bringing Sejal. We need to talk with her.
He saw her nodding with a smile on her lips. Riddhima moved to the bathroom.
Vansh: Why do I feel you are hiding something from me?
He mumbled and closed his eyes waiting for her to come back.
———————————-
Ishani opened her eyes as soon as the sun rays fell on her wounded body parts. She looked around and blinked her eyes trying to clear the vision.
Aryan: Ishani…Are you okay??
He said and she looked up at him, nodding. He kept his head back on the chair.
Ishani: Aryan, we’ll have to leave.
She said and saw him injured. Looking around, she saw no one around. Dragging her chair, she tried to move towards the table where the knife was kept. As she reached towards the table, moving her hand to it she tried to get her grip on the knife but before she could it fell from the table.
Ishani: Aahh…
She gasped in a low voice and fell down, she looked at Aryan. His leg was numb due to pain of the wound.
Aryan: Ishani…please don’t hurt yourself.
He whispered and she nodded. Rubbing her arms against the floor she moved towards the knife. She was about to take it when she saw the door opening.
Veer: Ishani and Aryan…How..?
She gasped and looked around as soon as she saw him. He shocked looked at her.
Veer: What the….?
———————————-
Kabir grabbed her hand and helped her to sit on the bed. She looked at him and then at Vansh and Riddhima.
Sejal: Why you had brought me in their room?
She said and looked around.
Kabir: You only said that you will tell us everything. So tell no one is going to keep an eye on you over here.
She clutched his hand tightly and looked at them again.
Sejal: I’ll tell you but first promise me before doing anything you would let me complete. Especially Riddhima.
Sejal said and saw them looking at each other confused.
Riddhima: Promise Sejal, we won’t react.
She said and sat in front of her. Taking a deep breath, Sejal started telling her each and everything carefully.
Riddhima: What are you trying to say? That the person whose dead body we saw 5 years back is alive.
Riddhima said and Sejal looked at her disappointed.
Vansh: You are not in your senses, Sejal. You know what are you saying? Veer, did all this. Why will he blackmail you through Arjun, how can you even say like that?
Sejal looked at them with teary eyes.
Kabir: Sejal, try to…
Before he could say, she closed her eyes.
Sejal: Arey…How the hell will I know why he did all this? I had told you, you won’t believe. You even didn’t let me complete.
She shouted while looking at their faces.
Kabir: But Sejal…
Kabir held her and was about to say.
Sejal: Shut up, and now listen to me. I know you’ll don’t believe me but now you all know everything so help me. Aryan and Ishani are with him, I don’t think we can bring them back so easily, so first of all we will have to remove the bomb from here and then we will keep Arjun at a safe place. So that Bhai don’t find him. Then you’ll can do anything.
Riddhima was about to say something.
Vansh: How do we trust you?
Vansh asked suddenly gaining her attention.
Vansh: I mean you can make up a story too…
She took a deep breath hearing him.
Sejal: You all know what. Don’t help me, I’ll do everything by myself. You’ll just do the arrangement for the party.
She said and removing Kabir’s hand from hers got up to leave the room.
Riddhima: Sejal, I trust you. I’ll help you in this.
Riddhima said and came in front of her.
Sejal: You don’t have to do anything. Just stay away from any unknown face because bhai wants to take you away from Vansh.
She said looking at their confused faces.
Vansh: Why will bhai do that? What will he get from it?
She heard him saying again.
Sejal: How will I come to know? You’ll have got to know almost everything. Couldn’t you all just match the dots?
She said irritated by their questions.
Vansh: Just a second, how you got to know that we had swapped our places in the marriage?
He asked and looked at Riddhima who was just hearing his questions.
Sejal: From Veer bhai.
She said with a big fake smile.
Vansh: How he got to know?
He asked passing her the same expression.
Sejal: Just now I told you that Veer bhai’s men are keeping their eyes on us. We are at the gun points 24*7 especially Arjun and leaving Riddhima.
She said and he nodded at her.
Vansh: Fine. But you won’t let anyone even try to hurt Arjun.
He said pointing his finger at her. She nodded frustrated by his questions and left the room.
Kabir: Why were you asking so many questions from my wife?
He asked raising his eyebrows.
Vansh: Shut up…
He said and left the room ignoring his expressions. Kabir turned back and looked at Riddhima’s confused face.
———————————-
Veer looked at her shocked. Ishani slides the knife under her dress hiding it from his gaze.
Veer: What the hell are you doing there?
He said and saw her gasping in pain. Aryan craning his neck looked back to see Veer standing there, closing his eyes he murmured few curses. She closed her eyes due to the pain.
Ishani: I..I feel down with the chair.
She said calmly. He came to her and holding her arm and the chair helped her in sitting back while in the process, the knife pierced in her skin marking a cut. Biting her lips, she stopped herself from making any sound.
Veer: Stop trying all your rubbish things. If you both even dare to run away from here. I swear I won’t even think before killing you both.
She heard his cold and dangerous voice. Grabbing the files he was about to move out from there. But again he came back and took out an injection from the drawer. They looked at him shocked.
Ishani: What are you going to do now….?
She asked in shock.
Veer: Nothing big…I’m just going to remove your pain. Don’t worry, I’m not giving you poison. It will just make you both unconscious for sometimes and I’ll be in relax that you won’t even try of running from here while I’ll be busy with some work.
He said and Ishani wriggled in the rope as soon as she saw him coming close to her. Before she could do anything, he injected her the saline making it pass through her veins. Moving to Aryan, he looked at her wound which had dried blood all around it.
Injecting it in his veins, he threw the syringe in the bin and looked at them.
———————————-
Looking at Arjun in front of her, she kissed him on his forehead lovingly while tears started to brim in her eyes.
Arjun: Why are you crying? It’s my birthday and here you are crying. Why?
He asked and stood on the chair matching to her height or a bit more taller than her.
Vansh: Because she is not going to get the cake tonight.
Vansh said and kept his chin on her shoulder while looking at Arjun in front of her eyes.
Arjun: Why won’t she? She is my Mumma and cake is for me. I’ll give it to her only.
He said and wrapped his hand on her neck making her stumble due to his sudden jump. Vansh smiled looking at him and held her from her waist.
Vansh: What about me?
He said bringing his face in front of Arjun.
Arjun: Don’t worry…Don’t worry…I’ll give you also.
He said and moved out from the hug and looked at Riddhima.
Riddhima: Ok…go now.
She said and smiled looking at him. Lifting him up, Vansh kissed on his cheeks.
Arjun: Papa…what’s my gift?
He asked encircling his small hands around his neck and looking at him.
Vansh: I don’t know…Ask your mom.
He said and looked at Riddhima who picked up her saree. She hearing them looked at Arjun.
Riddhima: Surprise.
She said and moved in the closet with the dress. Vansh smiled at Arjun and moved out from the room.
Descending down the stairs, they looked at the arrangements. Blue and white balloons some scattered on the floor while some on the walls with a rings joining one with another. Guests entering in through the main-gate while few were busy in gossiping. Vansh’s eyes fell on Sejal and Kabir who were not talking to each other but were passing a glance to each other.
Coming down from Vansh’s protective arms, Arjun moves towards a group of children who were his friends in their school. While he moved to Kabir. Coming in front of him and Sejal’s eye contact, Vansh disturbs their moment.
Kabir: What?
He asked and picked up his drink from the table.
Vansh: Where is Angre and Siya?
He asked and looked around the hall.
Kabir: Jammu. Why?
He asked knowing Vansh already knew about it. Shaking his head, Vansh smirks. Stopping one of the waiter in his track, he picks up the drink from the tray.
———————————-
As soon as Ishani opened her eyes. She shook her head trying to clear the blur as well as dull vision of hers. Taking out the knife she brought it in front of her eyes. Looking at the blood on the tip of the knife. Aryan looked at her. Sliding the knife under the hand of the chair, she started to cut the rope while Aryan was looking at the closed door.
With umpteenth attempts she was finally successful into removing the ropes from her hand. After she was done with removing of the ropes. She stretched her hand to erase the pain of her muscles. Looking at her brushed arms, she forget about the surroundings.
Aryan: Ishani…
He yelled in a low voice gaining her attention. She looked up at him and moved to him. Dragging her legs due to the pain, she finally reached to him. Coming close to his legs, she removed the ropes from there and then her eyes fell on his wound. Moving to his pocket, she took out his handkerchief and tied it to his wounds.
Removing his ropes, she moved to the door and peeped out to see many bodyguards standing with their rifles. Gulping down the saliva formed in her throat, she came back in.
Aryan: What happened…?
He asked as he saw her entering.
Ishani: There are so many bodyguards outside. How we will go?
She said and kept her hand on her wound which was paining. He tried to got up but due to the pain he again feel on the chair.
Ishani: Aryan…
She said and held his hand stopping him from getting hurt.
Aryan: I’m fine…
He said and getting a grip on the chair got up. Moving to the window, he looked out to see many bodyguards standing there.
Aryan: You all used to stay here only. You should know some of the way, to escape from here. Think.
She nodded and ruffling her hand through her hairs stood there thinking for a while. But before she could reply.
Aryan: Wait… don’t do anything…
He said and moved to the window. Taking out the curtains from the window, he tied them in a tight grip and threw them on the window’s side.
