Mumbai, India :
It's a usual morning where the whole city of Mumbai is rushing to cope up with the busy world. Children are moving inside their school bus busy planning their mischievous works chirpily whereas adults are running for their respective jobs stuffing bread in their mouth while driving, getting no time to have a peaceful breakfast.
Nature is busy in enjoying the state of every human whose speed is not less than some rocket who doesn't even have a second to act as a person instead of robots. Out of all these the king of the morning scowled at a woman who was still busy in her deep slumber. In order to remind its presence the sun peeked it's rays inside the curtain and caressed her face to wake her up from her sleep.
The woman frowned, scrunching her eyebrows feeling the rays and blinked her eyes before opening it properly. She yawned, stretching her hands and leaned on the headrest. She looked beside her and wondered, seeing no signs of her husband over there. Her eyes roamed over their beautiful room and finally landed on the round wall clock which reminded that she was already late. She gasped realising the time and took the alarm placed on the bed side table. She frowned seeing it off as she had set it to wake her up early in the morning.
"Hey Sweetheart, invite your morning coffee with a smile".
Her chain of thoughts got broken hearing her husband's gentle and love filled voice. He sat opposite to her holding a cup of hot coffee with a delicious smell hitting her nostrils urging her mouth to gulp the whole of it as soon as possible.
"Hey Honey, I think it's my daily routine right?". She took the cup from him.
"So what? Is there any rule written that a husband shouldn't serve a cup of coffee to his wife?". Asked Aariz, raising his brows.
She moaned having a sip and closed her eyes, relishing it's taste.
"Aariz, I love your hand made coffee. It makes my day".
She said taking another sip brought a wide smile to his face. He moved closer and pecked her lips to gain the same in return.
"It's you who turned off the alarm, isn't it?". Asked Evana narrowing her eyes.
"Of course Honey, did you leave me with any other option? The previous night you came all exhausted from your work and didn't even acknowledge my request to rise a little bit late today. So, without having any other choice I need to opt this method".
Evana hugged Aariz after hearing this and told.
"You are making me lazy Honey. What about my work?".
"It won't run away anywhere from you because the profession named beautician will be adored with real beauty only if it stays in your hands".
"I love you". She snuggled more to him.
"I love you too Evana, now you go and take a bath till then I will prepare your breakfast".
Saying this he took an empty cup from her hand and walked out of the room.
Evana descended the stairs adjusting her wrist watch and went towards the dining table on which her husband already placed their breakfast. The both had their food accompanied with their all time pleasant talks and decided to meet at a restaurant for dinner.
"By the way Aariz, when are you planning to design our own house".
He looked at her for a second and smiled before answering.
"Very soon darling".
"You find fun in the work of architecture right? I mean it's quite cool".
He just nodded his head in response and continued to have his breakfast.The both departed for their respective works in their cars. Evana is driving her new chocolate brown Renault Duster enjoying music from the CD player while humming the same.
She moved her head forward seeing a familiar woman waving hands at her car as asking for a lift. Evana stopped the car and greeted the lady with a pleasant smile.
"Hey Aunt Rose, how are you doing?".
The lady looked at her for a second and said.
"Hello my child. I'm fine and thank you. But please pardon me as I'm unable to remember you". Told Mrs.Rose with a small smile playing on her lips.
"Oh that's all right Aunt Rose.And coming to me, myself Mrs.Vyas. My husband and I visited your orphanage a couple of weeks ago. His name is Mr.Aariz Vyas".
"Oh yes child, now I got it. I'm sorry as I forgot you. I remember Aariz as he comes to our orphanage frequently. But I saw you for the first time itself two weeks ago". Said Mrs.Rose in apologetic tone.
"Uhh, that's alright. By the way, where are you going?
"Actually I'm going to my orphanage but suddenly my car broke down and here I'm standing for some help". Said Mrs.Rose.
Opening the car door Evana told, "Come in Aunt Rose, I will drop you there".
Mrs.Rose got inside the car mumbling a quick thank you to Evana.
"I hope I'm not troubling you".
"Not at all. Anyways I have to cross the orphanage to reach my spa. So, no issues at all". She replied with a sweet smile playing on her lips.
"By the way how are kids at the orphanage?". Asked Evana looking at the road.
"They all are perfectly alright. What will be bothering them if kind hearted donors like you are there to look after their needs".
"Well pleasure is ours Aunt Rose. And please don't hesitate to call Aariz if you need anything. We will be paying a visit to the orphanage this weekend". Said Evana taking a U turn.
"That's so nice of you child".
The ride is a silent affair after that while Evana is the first one to break the numb atmosphere.
"Well Aunt Rose, would you prefer to listen to some soothing music".
She looked aside earning no reply from her only to see Mrs.Rose pressing her head with her fingers.
"Uhh, are you okay?".
"Yes but I'm feeling a bit of a headache. Will you mind if I take a small nap here?". She requested Evana pleading with her eyes.
"Why not? You take rest and don't worry, I will wake you up when we reach the orphanage".
Mrs.Rose relaxed herself on her seat, closing her eyes. She leaned on the windscreen and dozed off.
After ten minutes Evana stopped in front of the orphanage. She gently tapped Mrs.Rose's shoulder calling her name.
"Aunt Rose, here we reached the orphanage".
Seeing her still sleeping, she called a bit louder only to receive the same response. Huffing she turned her face towards her while calling.
"Aunt Rose, please wake up....
Her words halted in the middle forming a lump in her throat seeing the sight in front of her. Her eyes popped out while her whole form started to shiver profusely seeing blood oozing out from her mouth.
Seeing Mrs.Rose in that state who was all well talking to her a few minutes ago Evana's mind got frozen, unable to understand anything. She covered her quivering lips with both of her palms panting out hard. Her orbs got stuck on the blood which was oozing out from Mrs.Rose's mouth. Evana got her senses back when a truck crossed her car making a loud shriek horn. She jerked back with the effect and opened the car door. She rushed towards the other side of the car with stumbling steps and opened it with shivering hands. Mrs.Rose is about to fall down as soon as Evana opens the door but lands in her arms who hold her in a safe grip. "Mother Rose". Evana looked aside hearing a loud cry only to see a few children staring at them with horrified expressions. All of them ran
Evana is thunderstruck after reading the content in the letter. She was shivering in her place and everything went blank in her mind. "No, this can't be true. I didn't do this". Said Evana looking at the police. "Don't you dare to lie Mrs.Vyas, why will a person who is gonna die will try to blame you unnecessarily?". Yelled Mrs.Mathur jumping in the scene. "I hardly met Mrs.Rose for once and in that span of time what enmity will I develop against her? Moreover, this letter is not written by her". "How can you be so sure of that Mrs.Vyas?". Asked the officer taking the letter from her hand. "Because when I met her, she didn't even remember my
The girl is crying out her heart hiding her face in her knees. Her eyes are clearly showing desperateness to save her mother at any cost. "Cut it". She stopped her sobs hearing the voice. Wiping her tears she got up from the floor. The man who is still now lying lifeless on the bed opened his eyes. He clapped his hands looking at the girl joined by everyone. He got down from the bed and told me while seeing her with an appreciative look. "Excellent job Ira. Must say you are indeed a different and unique packet of talent. At such a young age you can beat any veteran actors of the industry". "For that's why she is the most popular teen star of the world. I don't have an inch of hesitation
Ira waved her palm in front of Dhruv's face trying to bring him back from the shock given by her. "I don't mind even if you mind my words". Smiling sarcastically at him she is about to move from there but stopped in her tracks when he called her. Huffing in irritation she turned back. Dhruv came near her, faking a smile while saying. "Never mind. It's worth waiting for an angel like you. Will plan some other time". Saying this he clutched her hand and brought it near his lips. He was about to kiss her knuckles but landed his mouth on his own palm as she took her hand back. "My hand is not some cheap cigar to entertain yo
"M&k spa". Evana whispered the name written over there stressing her mind not getting how come the name of her spa changed all of a sudden from EV spa to M&K. "This is impossible. Who the hell changed the name of my spa?"yelled Evana, unable to digest the sight which she was witnessing right in front of her. It's impossible for her to even believe her own eyes. The receptionist huffed getting tired of all her antics finding them completely weird. She stepped outside her cubicle screaming for security. Without paying any heed to her, Evana is just rushing inside the spa not caring about the receptionist who is telling her to stop in her tracks in a bit stern tone. &
" Aariz ", is the only word escaped from Evana's mouth seeing the person beside her. Tears pooled in her eyes, feeling all her hopes to lead a happy life which were crushed down with each and every incident since the day's beginning has again found a new life with a glimpse of her husband. The next moment she landed herself in his arms giving a bone crushing hug to him with such force making his back hit the car door losing balance. The only thing which is able to express her condition at the moment are her tears which are continuously flowing out from her eyes. " Calm down babe, just calm down. Relax. Nothing is gonna happen to you. Now your husband is there right in front of you, for you. You don't need to be scared of anything." Consoled Aariz in a composed tone.
" What on this planet made those people of the orphanage and even the cops tell me that you are a film star and the founder of that orphanage"? Asked Evana and clutching her chest where her heart is thudding in rapid speed as her steps whether to choose the path of life or of death is dependent on his answer. " Honey, why are you asking such a question. Of course, you do know that I'm a star in the film industry" The words that escaped from Aariz literally spinned Evana's head. She flinched in her place unable to analyse still how many thunderstorms are in a race to reach her. " How can this be true? You are an architect not an actor. But why are you even acting in front of me, framing yourself as some movie star?" Asked Evana where each word flying from her mouth is c
A child in her age six is running around the whole. Her legs are aching due to not receiving any sort of rest for the past few minutes. She stood near the dining table painting very hard and caressed her back feeling pain over there. She took hold of the water bottle on the table which automatically made her realize the desperateness of her throat. She licked her mouth seeing the water in front of her which created cravings inside her dry tongue. With quivering hands she took hold of the bottle and looked around cautiously with her eyes that turned completely red and are swollen deeply. Getting relieved knowing the surroundings are free she opened the lid and is about to quench her thirst. "Aaaaahhhhhh", a wild groan passed through her mouth while the bottle slipped away from hands , sensing a sharp pain on her back. She hi
