Sometimes…..(KKB) Chapter 25

After a lot of persuasion from his mother & Rinku, Abhi agreed to act as an old man.

Abhi “Pick up! Pick up!” He says by making a call to Pragya.

Pragya “Hello…” Abhi “Thank you!” Pragya “Thank you?” Abhi “Thank you for picking up the call. The last time I called you didn’t bother to pick up my call. You know how upset I was. I felt like…” Pragya cut him by asking “Why did you call now Mr Abhi?” Abhi felt bad but he said “Oh….now I called to tell I am ready to act with you as an old man. Initially it felt odd but now I feel ok.” Pragya “Oh….I see….but I am not ready.” Abhi “Why?? I mean I am ready na…” Pragya “I got a better idea after that day. I thought it will be even more cute making kids acting like old men.” Abhi “But I was ready you know Pragya….” He said in a low tone.

Pragya “Better luck next time Mr Abhi. Well, I have decided Rinku to act as the old man & his dance partner, Preethi to act as a young girl who would help him in need.” Abhi “Oh man!!!” Pragya “What??”

Abhi “Are you trying to make them closer? As in Preethi is his girlfriend now. I have seen them speaking through eye-contact.” Pragya “Please Mr Abhi, talk like a mature father. He is such a small kid. How can he have a girlfriend at this age?” Abhi “He said you laughed that day when both of them gave flying kiss to each other. Can’t you see how close they are?” Pragya “Haan….but it’s just cute na….” Abhi “First it’s cute then it will be a cute love story.” Pragya was silent hearing that.

Abhi “Are you there??” Pragya “Yes I am. I understand what you mean. I will change his dance partner to a boy.” Abhi “Thank you!” Pragya “You don’t have to thank me as I also have the responsibility to make sure no wrong ideas are implanted into Rinku’s mind.”

Abhi smiles thinking once again her mother mode is switched on.

Pragya “Is that all?” Abhi “I know you are not ready to hear what all I have to tell you.” Pragya “Ok bye…” Abhi in his deep voice “Pragya…..”

She immediately ends the call making Abhi upset.

Pragya, No Abhi. It’s not possible. Although, I have some thoughts of you recently, it can never grow up to the love you want.

She says to herself with determination.

Abhi turns back to see Rinku. Rinku “Is that Mumma?” Abhi nods his head as yes.

Rinku asks what did she tell. Abhi explains everything except for the part that Pragya had decided to change his dance partner.

Rinku “Oh I thought Preethi will dance with me.” Abhi “So what? I thought you dance with her in your dreams?” Rinku “How do you know that Papa?” He asked looking surprised. Abhi “That means you are really dreaming of dancing with her!!! Rinku! Come here!!!!” Rinku “No Papa!!!!!!” He said by running away.

Abhi ran to chase him. In their chase of run, Rinku fell down and hurt his knee. He screamed in pain while Abhi carried him with worry. His mother hearing Rinku’s loud scream came & attend to him.

Abhi making him lie on the bed, quickly called the doctor. Rinku was continuously crying in pain. After the doctor had saw him & giving medicines, he calmed down.

His mother “It was a small fall Abhi. He is making a scene out of it.” Abhi “We can’t take it for granted Ma. Look how loudly he screamed in pain a while ago.” His mother “I know Abhi. He is very sensitive.” Abhi “It’s all because of me. I shouldn’t have chased him.” His mother “I have told many times to both of you not to run madly around the house.”

Abhi looks upset seeing Rinku sleeping. His mother “It’s ok next time both of you don’t play too much.” Abhi nods his head as yes. All of a sudden, Rinku wakes up & cries for Mumma.

Both attends to him but he keeps on cry for Mumma. He says he want to meet Pragie now!!!

Abhi without any delay he called up Pragya. Pragya hearing Rinku had a fall worries a lot. She too rushed to his house.

Upon reaching the house, Pragya knows where he would be so enters the room.

Seeing him all alone, lying on the bed makes her worried. He opens the eyes once Pragya comes near him.

Rinku “Pragie….” Pragya sitting beside him “Can’t you be careful? Who asked you to run until you fall? Where is the pain now?” Rinku looking sad points at his knee. Pragya touches his knee asked “ Here?” Rinku “Yes Pragie…” He says by closing his eyes in pain. Pragya gets teary seeing her son injured & is having pain.

Rinku was about to say something when Pragya “Promise me Rinku, you will never run very fast at home.” Rinku “But Pragie…..” Pragya “ Rinku, you are a good boy na….please listen to me.” Rinku “ Pragie! if I am a bad boy, you won’t talk to me?” Pragya “No Rinku, Whatever you are I will talk to you as you are my….” She realizes what she was about to say. Rinku looks at her deeply while Pragya looks with a strained expression.

Rinku “Why are you very sad Pragie?”

Pragya looking at him, How can I tell you that you are my son? How can I tell you I am feeling your pain as a mother?

Rinku “Pragie….” He calls her again. Pragya keeps on look at him in silence.

From a distance, Abhi whispers “Ma…you think he will do this properly? What if he blurts about the memory loss thing?” His mother “Oh Abhi! I never think of that!” Abhi & his mother looks panicked now.

His mother “We shouldn’t have left him alone listening to his words.”

Rinku had asked both to leave him alone at room when Pragya comes so that he can talk to her how much he misses his Mumma now. He was expecting by talking to her will make her change a bit. They too agreed to his plan & were outside the room in a position where they could see Pragya & Rinku talking to each other.

They then saw Pragya crying all of a sudden! Pragya hugs Rinku & cries her heart out. Rinku also gets emotional.

Abhi “Ma….lets go! I don’t know for what they are crying now.” His mother said “No Abhi, leave them alone. I think Rinku won’t tell about the memory loss thing. All he need now is Pragya beside him. He wants her affection.”

Abhi sees Pragya & Rinku again. It looks perfect. A mother hugging a child with a lot of affection. It was like seeing himself as Rinku & Pragya as his mother. He also used to cry for his Ma when he gets injured.

Precap
Pragya gets scared of seeing the preparations that are going in Mehra house. She sees a mandap setup in the middle of the living room.

Thank you everyone for reading, liking & commenting. As usual all your comments are encouraging. About next update, it will be quite late as I am not feeling well. This itself I am not sure how it turned out as half the time I was writing by falling asleep. Sorry for any mistakes here.

Recently, those in wattpad would have noticed this. Fatima aka Prabhi is posting my stories. She is kind of crazy. All of a sudden she asked me whether I can post Boss I love you as it was her favourite ff. I couldn’t say no as most of the times it’s difficult to say no to friends. That too with her who is a very sweet person. After that she asked me whether can she post recently finished ff, a random love story. Then she had been posting my other stories randomly not even informing & giving me surprises. Why am I saying all of a sudden is just to make a clarification that she is doing with my permission only. I should have told this earlier but it didn’t cross my mind. Of course she is posting the stories that is posted in TU first. There is no modifications or improvements in them. As already told, my first priority is in TU as I started here. About coming to wattpad, same issue as I have told many times. I still don’t have the feeling. So very sorry for those who want me to be there. Fatima aka Prabhi, I hope you don’t get troubled by what you are doing. Thank you everyone for all your love & support as usual.
