It took almost three days to stabilize Suhani's condition. Now and then she was waking up drenched in sweat and shouting Anirudh's name."What an irony." Rajveer let out a huge sigh while gulping down his morning coffee. He was all sitting beside her for the entire time, but her lips pronounced Anirudh's name instead of him. She was requesting Anirudh for not putting her to sleep. Every time her lips parted, he felt an urge to kill Anirudh with his bare hands. How dare he engrave such an amount of fear in her heart and mind. As Suhani's condition stabilized she started coming back to his law firm as usual. None of them talked about Banshali's case. Both of them signed an unknown deal of shutting themselves in that matter. Though Rajveer was unaware of one single point. Suhani hadn't stopped even after being kidnapped. She might have stopped bothering about the case but didn't restrain herself from digging up more about Anirudh. She kept on finding some strings that could lead her to
"That was............" Rajveer didn't finish his words when Suhani started with her own set of adjectives."Rude? Unexpected? Savage?""Don't know, but you shouldn't. The fight was in between us.""I have slapped him not because of you only. But also for kidnapping me."Both of them sat together in a coffee shop after two days of that incident. It was hard to bring Suhani out of her house since she was kidnapped. Apart from visiting his law firm, she didn't step out of her house. A lot of time she was surrounded by reporters to pass a statement over her missing incident. It was mental torture for her. She couldn't believe what sort of questions these people were having to ask a human being. One of them asked her if it was a group plan of Rajveer and her or not. As if they framed her kidnapping to let loose the case. Somehow Rajveer's reputation was clear to prove a point that he couldn't be bribed."How is the situation now?" Suhani asked Rajveer looking at his face while playing wit
"Suhani, stop. Listen to me first. Let me come with you." Ragini was yelling at her daughter who lost her basic sensibility. She ran towards the mansion's garage like a scared woman running to save her life. Without wasting a single moment she rushed towards the car and climbed up in the driver's seat. Her retreating figure and disappearance of the car brought another dreadful fear in Ragini's conscious mind. "Amir, Gadi nikalo" (Amir, bring the car)She called for her driver who was standing at a distance looking at them. In the morning itself Sudhir left in a hurry and now his daughter Suhani almost ran away. Amir, being the driver for the past ten years, had never seen such a chaotic situation in his master's house. He looked stressed and brought the car out for Ragini. "Madam, Kaha?" (Madam, where?)"Drive to City Hospital. As fast as you can." Ragini dabbed a tissue on her forehead to wipe those sweats. Neither Sudhir had cleared the situation nor did she get a chance to clarif
Madhban Mansion"Bhai, it wasn't a full-proof plan. Vinayak is digging up the matter.""Let him.""We could be in a mess again. Until it is confirmed as suicide, we would be still dangling in between truth and dare game.""I don't think so." Anirudh kept on replying as a robot to his brother's questions."Are you even paying attention bhai?" Adarsh wanted to confirm the matter as he found Anirudh aloof."Of course." He lifted his hand in a gesture to show his way of paying attention.Even though his body was rooted in Madhban Mansion, a small part of his brain was denied to leave cabin number 124 of City Hospital. Suhani was lying there when he saw her for the last time. The handprint was visible on her flushed cheeks due to his slap. But he was left with no other choice. That was the only way of calming her down as she had lost her mental stability. She was speaking absurd words and behaving like a maniac. It was expected from her during the situation but what she needed at that mome
It took not a whole lot of time for Suhani to identify the man standing in front of her. The one who was the root of every issue that had ever occurred in her peaceful life. The man who humiliated her and crashed her dignity almost. She would never be able to forget the same man who had dared to touch her without her consent."How long will you cry over your dead fiancé?" Anirudh came closer to Suhani while whispering his venomous words with a dark chuckle. She looked at him with pure rage in her eyes. "Don't you dare to bring his name in your filthy mouth?""Come on. You can think of my offer now. We can start from where we were left." He crossed all the boundaries of manners or formalities just by blurting out his unexpected words. Suhani couldn't believe how someone could stoop so low. "Slap."A loud sound echoed as Suhani's hand landed on his cheek for the second time. She slapped the same man once again who dared to step into their peaceful life. It was the same man because of
"That you would know once you visit the police station Mr. Madhban. Why so hurry?"Adarsh's gaping mouth made the situation more dramatic. His to and fro vision in between his brother and Suhani remained still with numerous questions. None of them opened their mouths afterward. Suhani and Anirudh kept their eyes glued with each other making it look like some romantic scene from a Bollywood movie. Only a song of "Arijit Singh" was supposed to be played to make it realistic. But deep inside both of them were shooting daggers at each other. A silent storm appeared around them which could be sensed by none but them only.Where she stood with her crossed hands, Anirudh stayed keeping his hands inside his pocket. "Really?" Finally, one word came out from Anirudh's mouth as he took some menacing steps towards Suhani who didn't move from her place. Rooted at her initial position she cleared her throat with a different smile on her face."Are you still in your dreams Mr. Madhban? I know it's
"You could have chosen some other lawyer, Suhani. Do you think it is a feasible solution?" Sudhir was sitting in his study when Suhani entered for some documents. Since she pulled a stance like dragging The Anirudh Madhban in the police station, the cold war had started between them."Dad, not again. I don't want to talk in this matter." She dropped her head down on the nearby bookshelf."Both of you have become insane." Sudhir let out a huge sigh. "What did you say?" Suhani snapped her head at her father when the word "both" reached her ears. Rohini wasn't involved in any such matter then how the word "both" came up. "I don't want to repeat Suhani. I received a call from Jayraaj telling me to settle down the matter. Zid chod do apni Suhani (Just drop your stubbornness Suhani)."Jayraaj is close to the Madhban family also thus the situation became complex for him. He couldn't support a single group blindly."Dad, what do you mean by "Both". What exactly did Rohini do? Tell me.""Do
"How deep is the wound?""Not much. She must be back in senses within no time.""Such an irritating situation. The girl would never learn."As two men were discussing the matter with a doctor, a girl lying on the bed started getting her senses back. She stirred in her sleep and tried to open her eyes that felt like a heavy boulder. Blinking twice she opened them and immediately got welcomed with a heavy throbbing pain at the back of her head. The ruffling sound of the bedsheets due to her abrupt movements grabbed the attention of those men presents inside the room. Even though she was not fully aware of the situation, the unfamiliar ceiling and surroundings slapped her perfectly for her last beloved mistake. Cursing herself inwardly Suhani tried to push herself up, holding the edge of the bed. As she finally lay her eyes to know her surroundings three pairs of eyes found their way to look at her. "No..." A slight whisper left her mouth when she realized she ended up again in the same
