chapter 11

He instantly shut the door and went directly on the bed forgetting his dinner. For him, whether it's her silence or her fight, Both bothered him hard. At this moment, his male ego and guilty had a loggerheads...Afterall He is The Raghav Rao, so his ego comes always first. He took off his shirt and tried to sleep, covering himself with the same sheet.."Achha Hua, Voh Sari Ka Dukan Chalageya Idhar Se..Aab Mai Akela Soyega..full Bed cover Karke.. Sukoon Se.. Ekdum Kadak..AC Bhi Apne Choice Se Low Karega...Koi Rokneka Nahi...Jata Jidhar Ko Jai.. Mereko Koi Pharak Nehi Padta...Mai Akela Khafi Hai.. RAGHAV RAO, One Man Army.."He closed eyes.. But instead of darkness, A grumpy face appeared. That little face doesn't look pretty like angel rather than fade and teary, sad. It's was Pallavi's, her sad and pale face which he saw before she left the room. He closed eyes tightly trying to avoid that unwanted apperance.but it appeared more than before. He opened eyes in frustration and turned to other side..A sudden emptyness attacked him when his arms found no-one to touch or drag lovingly. He noticed that he was sleeping again just to side of bed leaving a big area empty...But Why...Why can't he replace him or anything else there even in knowingly.. She has gone.. leaving her intoxicated smell everywhere along with sheet and mattress...He tried to breathe but felt chocked with passage of that smell...When.. When did He become so habituated with her..so habituated that he couldn't even breathe without her..in just few days She replaced oxygen for him.. Sounds funny but true..she is necessary for him.. for his existence.. But will he be able to realise it....He got up, sat and looked around the whole room.. The thing made him restless was not the presence of those garbage rather than the absence of her structure...He heard a sound from his back..A silhouette apperance of a man wearing traditional Telugu attars calling him again and again."Raghav Rao, Edhar.. Edhar..Pichhe Dekho.."He shouted.Raghv turned to see. He was looking alike him, only difference was his angelic face had a peace and serenity.."Tu..Tu Phir Ageya..Dekh Aab Tu Edhar Se Jaa..Aab Mai Tera Lecture Nehi Sun Sakta..Pag Geya Hai Mai Us Saari Ka Dukan Ka Lecture Sun Ke..Mai Bhahat Pareshan Hai Aab..Tu Mereko Jyda Tension Mat Dila.. Please, Request Karta Hai Terese..Poda..Aur Akelaa Chod De Mereko.. Ardham Ainda"Raghav  yelled in frustrations.He listened carefully and laughed at him."Shhhh, Rilax.. Raghav Rao.. Rilax..Kaiko Tension Leta Hai..Mai Hai Naa..Aab Bas Thoda Der  Ke Liye Muh Band Karke Mera Baat Sunne Ka..Phir Mai Chala Jeyega.. Promise.." "Ok, Jo Bolna Hai Jaldi Bol..Aur Nikal Edhar Se.."Raghav said with a sad face."Sare..Ab Tum Only Mera Sunega Aur Chup Rahega...Toh Bol.. Kaiko Tension Mei Hai.."He asked with soft voice.Then Raghav narrate him howeverything started and how is the situation right now. Why can't she just remain silent and obey him like others... Why she is so stubborn...How She left like this.. leaving him alone....He giggled at Raghav "Raghav. TumKo Asa Nehi Bolna Chahiye Tha... Pallavi Ko.. Agar Voh Tumko Saaf Karne Ko Bola..Toh Tum Bhi Pyar Se Usko Samjha Sakta Tha..Tera Problem Ya Phir Use Tumhara Help Karneko Bol Sakta Tha Safai Mai..Ase Voh Narraj Vi Nehi Hoti Aur Tum Kuch Time Spend Karleta... Par Tum Ne Apne Ego Ke Chalte Sab Ulta Kardiya..""Aab Socho...Usko Fever Hai Aur Bho Vah Akele Soyega Aur Usko Kal Ki Tarha Thand Laga Toh...Agar Cold Bad Geya Toh...Toh Aab Tum Abhi A Sab Saaf Karega Aur Pallavi Se Sorry Vhi Bolega... Ardham Ainda.""Pichhi Le sinda..Mai Usko Sorry Bolega..Kadu..Never.. Ye sorry Varry Raghav Rao Se Nehi Hoga..."Raghav nod reluctantly. But he noticed it."Raghav, Tereko Pallavi  Tumhara Paas Hona Ki Nehi...Toh..Ye Ego Aur Jid Chod...Aur Mene Jo Kaha Usko Sochho..Pyar Me Aur Jung Mai Sab Fair Hai.. Ardham Ainda""Pyar..Naku 😦...Kya Bakwaas..l don't love Her.." Raghav replied hiding his emotions.He stood and laughed out" Achha Jock Tha.. Raghav Rao.. Tum Pallavi Se Pyar Nehi Karta... Tum Husband Wife Ho, Ek Sath Ek Kamra Ek Bed Share Karte Ho...Ek Dusre Ki Care Karte Ho...Aur Tum Kehete Ho Ki U don't love Her..Man; Kab Tak Khudko Jhut Bolega...""Hn, Hum Husband Wife Hai..But Hum Aab Achhe Dost Hai...Mai Care Karta Hai Kynki Mai Guilty Hai..Aur Mai Usko Uske Family Ke Pass Vapas Bhej Dega... Ardham Ainda"His voice lowered saying the last line."Ohhh, Harishchandra Ka Nana.. Bhahat Ho Geya Tera..2ghata Tumse Kata Nehi Jaa Raha Aur Bol Raha Hai Ki Vapas Vej Dega..Aab Ea Natanki Band Kar Aur Saaf Karo...Phir Jake Sorry Bolneka... Ardham Ainda.".After this he just vanished like a ghost.He called him twice but understand he had gone getting no response...He is Raghav's Inner sole, his angelic form..What.. U Don't believe. Yes, Our Don has a second personality just opposite to him...Raghav is aggressive and ruthless while he is calm and kind, Raghav is impulsive and short tempered while he is composed and cool, Raghav listens only to his Ego while he is completely obeys heart...He comes Whenever there is a need, When Raghav become restless, impulsive, rage or in pain, when Raghav fails to choose path, fails to configure right or wrong, confuses what to do..He comes, He comes to make Raghav stable, he shows right direction, helps him to choose correct one...He is his enemy in feature but best buddy in nature. But I think He is already love with Pallavi.. What Do U think 😉He knew He couldn't sleep onwards.. without her, so better to clear this rather than become more tense while trying to sleep...If he got tired due to cleaning.. maybe he felt asleep or thinking that he obeyed her and she will come back gave him peace...So he decided he will clean up that garbage first then go to her....While rearranging those spread stuffs, he noticed how his male dominant room has changed it's thame completely...  half of Closet is filled with her sarees, dressing table is decorated with her hair pins, bangles and markup kits... These things made him more week now reflecting the seen of her dressing that he stares often secratly.Raghv checked the time after finishing... it was just few hours left for morning... it's not good to break her sleep when specially she is ill, let her sleep and he will approach her early morning..moreover He was also tried this time...He was excited as well as a bit sad...What if She again started fighting without accepting his sorry then...NoNo..He will try his best to settle Everything as before.*********************Here, things are more complicated for Pallavi, more than Raghav."Jyda Biwi Bane Ka Jarurat Nahi Hai.." the line repeated in her mind in loop..It pinned her heart..How Can He say like that.. don't he know how much it hurts her when he sometimes make her realised that it's better to be a deal.. But Why..Why his line seems to so rude..He is like this ,Yaa.. And it's true they are husband wife but just to say...Then Why she is being possessive for him, hurt by his stupid lines..She just wanted to chide him badly for this but couldn't, she couldn't because she knew he is Raghav Rao..And Raghav Rao is like that..looses his sanity in temper..Its actually not him who was fighting, it's his male ego and anger...He becomes helpless in front of his nature..this is that.. She turned her side for 12th time...it was almost 5hours she left that room, confidently challenging him but Now.. what is she doing.Instead of sleeping calmly or cursing him, all she is doing that thinking about his over the top antics and childishness.."Oh Ho..med. leliye, shower bhi liya Hai, dress bhi change Kiya Hai, AC Bhi thick thak Hai..Phir Kyn ??Kyn Neend Nehi Aa Rehi Hai..Kya Ho Geya Hai Tujhe Pallavi, Kal Toh Kumbkaran Ki Tarha So geyi Thi..Phir Aaj Kya Hua.. Sapne toh Durr Ki Baat, Thodisi Need Dede Bappa..Sab Sahi Hai Shrif..Aaj Yaha Voh Ghamandi Rao Nehi Hai..Kahi Room Change Ke Vajease Toh Nehi..Room Mai Vapas Chali Jau Kya..Kya Usne Saaf Kiya Hoga Yaa.. Tu Bhi Naa Pagal Hai, Usse Gaali Dene ki Bajae..Tum Ulta Uske Bareme Soch Raha Hai..Voh Saaf Kare Naa Kare, dinner kare Naa Kare, Soye Yaa Naa Soye..Uski Marji..Tum So Jao..Ok..Besebhi Mujhe Pata Hai, Naa Hi Voh Suddhrga Naa Hi Mai Vapus Us Room Mai Jaungi..So Just Stop it and sleep for Goddamit..😠"Getting fed up with her own activities, she closed eyes but..Oh No.. Again..her disobedient mind travelled to his land.. missing him so much near to her..How is looks like a Cup cake while sleeping beside, how he cuddles slowly towards her while she was awake and he slept before...how he drags almost whole sheet..How he scared by those nightmares... What if he had a nightmare tonight, No one to beside him to console..How he murmurs some Telgu lines in tiredness...most importantly His baby like adorable calm face, his warmth, his presence..his dark aura.. She needs him..She needs him to calm herself down... she needs him to hide herself inside his embrace..She needs him for protection..for care...for her comfort...She needs him for every single hour...Her eyes opened with a hope of divert... but what she saw left her dumbfounded..He is sleeping there, on the same bed just near to her..."What the f**k..You 😯..How.. When..Why..Sorry, I mean Raghav !! Tum Yaha Kya Kar rehe Ho..Aur Andar Kese Aye.. Aur Soh Bhi Geye...Kab..door Lock Hai..Phir Tum...Raghav..I am talking to you.. Raghav "She shouted in shock without getting any response.She wanted to punch him hard but stopped when she noticed his cute calm face...Yes; that's it was she carving for.. Instead of punch, she spread her palm for caressing with a wide smile but...He vanished suddenly..🥺"Pallavi.. Pallavi.. Pallavi..To Pagal Ho Geyi Hai... Bappa, Mai Kyun Inta Miss Kar Rehi Hun Us Ghatiya Insaan Ko..Usne Mujhe Inta Sunaya Phirbhi..Kyn Us Par Gussa Nehi Aa Raha Mujhe...Ulta..Apko Pata Hai Naa Voh Kese Hai.. Uski Harkate Passand Nehi Mujhe Bilkul.. Phirbhi Kun Uski Chinta Lagi Rehe Ti Hai..Kun Uske Bina Sab Anjaan Sa Lagta Hai...Usko Jarasa Dard Mai Bhi Nehi Dekh Pati..Uska Voh Rolu Sa chehra...Ek Ajeeb Sa Dard Deta Hai Mujhe...Aab Voh Meri Pasand Je Jaga Jarurat Ban Geya Hai...Ek Raat Tak Katna Muskil Ho Raha Hai... Magar Kab..Kab Hua Ye Sab..Kab..Voh Insaan jise Mai Marna Chahati Thi Abb Dhere Dhere Mere Jene Ki Vaja Bante Jaa Raha Hai..Kahi...Nehi Nehi.. Mujhe Uski Aadat Nahi Honi Chahiye... Agar Woh Nehi Badla Toh.. Phir Main Kya Karungi...Kese Rahungi Uske Bina...Mujhe Ye Sab Apne Dimaag Se Nikal Ni Hogi...Kuch Bhi Ho Jaye.. Mujhe Us Ghamandi Rao Ki Addat Nehi Legni Chahiye.. Samajla..Ab So Jayo.."She checked outside the window..It was upto dawn..No Way of sleeping more, better to wake up..As she remembered today's busy schedule.******************Raghav had fell asleep thinking about his wife and his imaginary sorry session..A pnring distrubed him..He picked up still sleepingtone.."Hello..Kyun..""Mai Vijay Deshmukh.."The other person replied."Bol Sanki Buddah..I mean Marathi Father in law..Kaiko Inta Subha Subha Call Kiya.. Kyun? Raat Ko Tereko Tera Dimaag Vapus Mil Geya Kya..Jo Kho Gaya Tha.." Raghav cleared his throat."Tum Chahete Ho Naa Ki Mai Tumhare Biwi Ko Maaf Karde Aur..Use accept Kar Lee Dil Se...Toh Abhi Mujhe Dukaan Ke Paas Jo Road Hai Vaha Pe Milo..." He started without pulse."Aree, Good.. TumKo Inta Jaldi Aakal Aaa Geya...Mai Ata Hai..Tum Vahi Rukh.." He completed and cut off the pn.He thought to himself.He was one for which she is now not with them...So it's his duty to bring them back to her... If he will able to set everything...He will keep his promise intact and also surprise her with giving her family back..He imagined her beautiful face cherished with smiling when her family accepted her as  their daughter. She loves them so much...If he succeeded this time, surely he prooved him and she will not leave him also...He quickly changed his dress and drove out for mentioned Road...******************After fresh up, she went down and noticed Amma near Puja Place...She wished her goodmorning." Ab Kaisa Hai Tumhara Tabiyat...Tum Thikse Soya Naa.. Inta Jaldi Udh Geya.." Amma asked fondly unknown about their fighting."Hn Amma, Mai Thik Hun... Don't Worry.Aaj Mujhe Bahat Kaam Hai..Aur Mai Kal Dukaan Vi Nehi Geyi..Toh" "TumKo Pata Hai.. Raghav Nee Kal Raat Ko Dinner Nehi Kiya...Mai Kya Karu Iss Ladke Ka..Kal Bhi Voh Jaldi Mai Bina Nasta Kiya Chala Geya Tha..Kal Voh Tumhara Tabiyat Ko Leke Bhahat Pareshan Tha... Usne Mereko Bola.. Tumhara Khayal Rakhane Ko.. Bhahat Deer Tak Tumhara Paas Baitha  Tha Sayad...Aur Phir Patanehi Kya Hua..Jaldi Mai Nikal Geya..."Pallavi's heart become heavy listening to her. (He was all caring about you but What You Do.. Fighting with him for that stupid issue.. Maybe He left no time, So ... But.. It's not fair..He cared for you but fight with him and leave him alone... Can't You say Let's Both clean that instead of he only...You Know How is He..You need to understand him...Ok.. Let's Go and Talk to Him....At least A sorry.. But what if he is still in Ghamandi Mood..NoNo..I will try my best to settle Everything even I will clean up that mess with Naidu..If He didn't.)She run to her bedroom to witness that calm sleeping face in real.. But She didn't find the smell that she was searching for..He was not There.She even cheaked washroom but in vain. What she found no less than a surprise.. The room was properly rearranged. Everything was in it's place also including her one."Who..??  Raghav Ne Kya Ye Sab... Mujhe Toh Yakeen Nahi Ho Raha.. Toh Ghamandi Rao Ka Gussa Sant Ho Geya...Wow.Likin Ye Sab Mai Bahat Time Laga Hoga Aur..Deva.. Matlab Ki Raghav Bhuka Tha Aur Raat Bhar Jaga Hua Tha...Beda Manus...Pata Nehi Mai Inta Jid Kyn Ki.. Aab Bhi Asi Kahi Chalayega..Kahi Abhi Tak Naaraj Toh Nehi Hai...Pn ??"She dialled him but it was busy..She waited for him, sitting on sofa with a grumpy face, eyes fixed on Main door...For her, to see him in slight pain is unbearable.. But when she is the cause of his pain..It pains her most.. That guilty engulfing her,slowly till she met him, be sure that he is all right and happy.To be continued ⏭️
