chapter 39

"What's all this?" Swapna looked at both Neeraj and Manasi, faking anger."Magic" Manasi smiled."When did you steal the ring?" Neeraj asked Manasi, patting her shoulder.Neeraj felt pity for Manasi, She broke up with Viraj and bearing lots of pain, smiling widely at everyone.She made a call to him at midnight and cried her heart out.She made few calls to Swapna but, Swapna was angry with her and not ready to talk to her sister, She simply shunned her calls.Manasi has no one to share her pain.She called to Neeraj and asked him to listen to her pain.She shared lots of things with him she learned by the time she went to meet Sanjana to question her intentions behind humiliating Bhumi.She shared everything with Neeraj."You did it so quickly" Neeraj smiled at Manasi, patting her shoulder."Thank you Jiju, I just executed your plan." She winked and smiled."Both of you, First answer my questions," Swapna shouted, still trying to pretend the same anger.But Swapna looks extremely happy, She is happy for her friend Sanjay and Bhumi. She knows very well about Neeraj, she sensed it before.He won't sit quiet, He would never.But one thing bothered her a lot, He won't hide things from her, but this time he hides the whole plan.She felt sad.She wants to know the reason behind it.Neeraj smiled and caught her hands catching her expressions, He knows well how to convince his beautiful wife.Manasi rolled her eyes like she used to do every time.Swapna fake a glare at Manasi.But her Manasi made her proud this time. Her heart got crushed to see Manasi as a spoiled brat, She felt sad for her loving sister, who was there with her in all her thick and thin.She knows she is too pampered and childish, but she never expected this nastiness from her.Now Manasi wiped away her anger in a minute, just like that.Neeraj made Swapna sit and sat beside her, Manasi smiled at her sister asking her to calm down."Listen" Manasi nodded."I was disheartened to learn Bhumi wants to walk away from Sanjay's life."Neeraj started explaining things to his wife."I tried to convince them both, Bhumi didn't listen to me, She is frightened by these mad people." He looked at Kunal."What? Who?"Kunal joined them with curiosity."Sh.." Swapna signed at Kunal to listen calmly, He nodded with a grumpy face."I talked to Sanjay and you know what Mr.Sanjay asked me?""To Keep my f*king mouth shut and not to interfere in his f*cking life."Neeraj sighed, He is still angry with him.Now Swapna learned why Neeraj kept avoiding the issue all the time.He is angry, angry with his friend and his words.Who knows about Neeraj's anger better than Swapna?Now she knows why he was moody all the time.Sanjay has to literally beg Neeraj now, Neeraj will make things hard for him, She closed her eyes."I called Vani di and told her everything.""She took care of the issue very cleverly, Such a sweetheart she is? Unlike that nasty fellow""Okay, Stop" Swapna got irritated."It's not the time to scold Sanjay" She warned him.Neeraj muttered something inaudible."But why are you here?" Swapna turned to Manasi and looked at her in confusion, shunning Neeraj, She is dealing with his anger issues for years, to which she got habituated well."Di, I went to meet Sanjana and wanted to question her about the nasty thing she made me do.""Though I am at fault, She was the one whose brainwashed me.""She was the one who showed some nasty pictures of Bhumi and Viraj..""What not she did"Manasi stopped for a second, consoled herself, and continued.Swapna sensed some sadness in his voice but kept quiet.She made a note and talk to Manasi later."She planned something so disgusting, and Sanjay's dad is helping her" Manasi said with a shock written face."What the hell?" Kunal shouted."Yes, He wants Sanjay to marry Sanjana, wanted to demand a huge amount of money as dowry.""His dad and Sanjana want to ruin his life at hook or crook," Manasi explained."He has some debts it seems."Neeraj continued"Debts?" Swapna looked in confusion."Yes, It's a mystery. Even Sanjay didn't know why he has those debts.""To whom he has to pay them.""Akash, one of the famous businessman from the South, We guess," Neeraj said with a sullen face.Akash is a ruthless businessman, famous for his capricious and vicious nature."Oh god!" Swapna breathed some air."All the firms running by his father are in huge loss. Sanjay is the only one who is protecting their properties, working hard dusk, and dawn.""The departments taken care of by Sanjay, the firms taken care of by him are performing well." Neeraj looked at Swapna and Kunal one after another."Manasi who sensed Sanjana's plan badly wanted to reach Sanjay at any cost. She wanted to let him know his dad's wicked plan and Sanjana's intention.""She searched for Sanjay a lot"Neeraj looked at Manasi." I couldn't found him di"Manasi looked at Swapna with a pale face."Manasi who doesn't know what to do  called me and told me each and  anything.""We started searching for Sanjay together.""Finally, I found him at the hospital." Manasi faked a smile bearing all the pain of her break up with Viraj."Jiju was the one who guessed it.""He called Vani di and learned Sanjay is at the hospital.""She didn't take a second to reach there and talked to Sanjay.""I called Jiju the next second, and we planed something, mysterious." Manasi waved at her phone.Sanjay entered Neeraj's house, Soon she left for the airport and hide himself collecting the ring from Manasi."As Jiju asked me to do I called Sanjay and told him Bhumi is going away, far away from here him, his love to abroad, permanently""This worried Sanjay a lot," Manasi confessed with a mischievous smile on her lips."Poor fellow, he almost died" Neeraj chuckled.Swapna glared at him, Neeraj shook his head frowning."Now what did I do?" He mumbled at Swapna and continued his explanation."I asked him to come to our home and hide somewhere till Bhumi comes and finds him," Neeraj smirked at his wife with pride in his pair of eyes."And the next moment messaged Manasi, told her the plan and asked to steal the ring."Neeraj is smirking."Oh my god!" Swapna freaked and sat in complete silence."You both hide these many things from me?""From your wife?""From your sister?""You both are...." She trailed off looking at Neeraj and Manasi one after the other."We are unsure whether this guy is going to turn up or not.""But we sincerely wanted to stop Bhumi." Neeraj gave an answer which didn't satisfy Swapna."We don't know whether we will win or lose."He admitted."Who is it?! Great Neeraj! He planned at it and executed it?""It will be a perfect hit" His wife praised him with full of sarcasm.Kunal is chuckling at the two.But deep down he felt happy for Bhumi. She is happy and that's enough for him. Nothing more he wanted.Neeraj's kept a sullen face, Swapna is evidently not happy with him, his actions.Who knows what will be her punishment for this? Neeraj became angry and worried at the same time.Her punishments are very weird, they test Neeraj's patience.She stops talking to him, responding to his touch, Shuns his calls.Even if he makes a call keeping his pride aside, She will simply message him the necessary information.She sleeps on the couch at nights,And cries all night just to show how much hurt She is?She eats less, talks less, at the end of the day she still cares for him with the same love.Neeraj gets angry with her behavior but learned his ways to tame his stringent wife.Swapna simply walked to the kitchen without a word with a sulky face."You're gone man" Kunal chuckled.Neeraj is not in a mood to mess with his friend.Kunal looked at Manasi and they both laughed at once."I am sorry wifey" Neeraj stood there literally begging Swapna.To be continued.Please vote and comment.Please let me know how it is.Thank youTake care.Anything left?Wants to know who is Sanjay's cousin....coming chapter.Don't forget to vote and let me know how it is, it motivates a lot.
