All Chapters of Past or Present #1,#2,#3: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

*Kalpana Pov*“Have the food, Kalpana.” I heard someone saying and I did calmly sitting between them while no one uttered a word.“I shouldn’t have asked you to call your… your friend.” I heard another voice but kept quiet.“I will take Sudhir and let him sleep along with Nivaan.” I heard another voice and I wish I can come out all this and speak to them.“Talk!” someone mumbled placing a hand on my shoulder.“All these years, I was not taking care of him. Some stranger was doing everything and here I felt… I…” I trailed off choking on my words.“You are a good mother, Kalpana. The things you can give to him don’t decide that.” Aunty said, but I shook my head.“She was supposed to be my best friend, but all she was just a spy for him.” I mumbled closing my eyes.“I think she was just not that. She was really distressed and guilty and I can see she cares for you.” Mridula said.“Stop it, Mridula.” Nipuna mumbled and I realized it is her hand on my shoulder.“I became a secretary and I

*Mridula Pov*“Tajwar!” I mumbled, but he just sat beside Urmi’s bed in silence.“So, you are going around suggesting to go for another person. Why do I think whatever that is happening with us is the reason?” he asked, not even turning towards me.“Your thinking is wrong.” I replied calmly.“I am thinking about you only, right? Do you really want to leave me?” he asked and I suddenly felt the anger making me walk near to him.“You stupid man! At least listen to me before saying stupid things.” I said in a loud whisper after hitting him on his hand and stilled along with him.“I will go.” I mumbled and rushed away to reach our room.Before I could close the door to not let him enter, he push his way through it and closed it himself along with holding me in his arms.“Tajwar!” I said, trying to release myself.“I should give punishment for doing that.” He said crashing his lips to mine and we both fell into the passion before coming up for air.“I missed you! I don’t want to fight wit

*Nipuna Pov*“Why did she still didn’t return? Where did she say she was going?” I asked turning towards Dileep.“She said she has some work and maybe she went to meet Manohar.” Dileep replied shrugging.“Why do you think its Manohar?” Amrin asked staring at him.“Because she likes him.” Dileep replied shrugging.“I know she likes him and not Jay. But aren’t you guys supposed to be against Manohar?” Amrin asked frowning at us.“Why?” I asked, frowning back at her words.“Well, I have heard so many times of gold digging and all words from this family. And now when it is a male who is doing it, then it is okay?” she asked.“Amrin! We are not getting your words.” Mridula said, frowning and everyone sat in silence to which she frowned.“Manohar did everything for Kalpana to take Sudhir as his family and to get some property. Isn’t that gold digging?” Amrin asked with a confused look.“Didn’t she know everything?” Dileep asked, turning towards us.“I explained everything along with what Aa

*Manohar Pov*I smiled at him, my son playing in the water along with his Mom, and leaned back feeling relaxed not just physically but also mentally.What started as just taking care of them and also getting the property of my so-called Dad to my name to get revenge on the people who hurt my Mom ended up in this way.If anyone asks me outright whether I regret acting in that way by hiding in the shadows and helping her with this reason, I kind of do but not in a way that I feel to turn everything opposite if I am given a chance to change the past.What I regret is doing all these things in the shadows as I could have met them properly long back and fallen for her earlier than I did.I am jealous of Pallavi who is completely close to her for the past many years unlike me. I would have been there with them when he would have been just a baby.It’s not like I was never in his presence before as I tried to see him from time to time when he stayed in the play area that was constructed in t

*Jhanvi Pov*“Jahnvi?” I heard someone calling and turned to see my professor.“Yes, maam?” I asked smiling.“Can you do me a favor? I have to meet the head of department but I have a work at the hospital.” She requested.“What should I do?” I asked, smiling, feeling relief that there was no mistake from my side regarding presentation which I thought she will talk about.“Give these files to Dr.Raj. He wanted me to give him a list of people who can be taken under his wing.” She replied and added, “And don’t peak.”I chuckled and took the files before leaving the campus and walked a few minutes. I reached the hospital and walked inside.“Good morning, Jhanvi.” Receptionist greeted me and I greeted her back.I walked to the elevator and reached the floor before knocking on the door. Hearing the reply from the other side, I opened it and walked inside.“Ah! Jhanvi!” Dr.Raj said with a smile.I smiled back and placed the files before him. He glanced at the top file before nodding at me.“
