Chapter 39: chapter 39

           Amar sits flipping pages of his patients files, however he's lost in thoughts. His humanity is being questioned and his responsibility cum love for Upra is making him torn apart. He picks up his mobile and calls his Mom but the line doesn't get connected. As he couldn't concentrate he tries giving a call to Upra, despite of knowing she would be studying at this point of time. However the call wasn't picked up. Frustrated, he gets up to leave to his appartment in his basic model of BMW which he bought in his earnings. As Amar enters inside the apartment, it was brightly lit. He calls Naveen while entering but not just Naveen even his mother was there.     Shikha was sitting cross legged In the centre of the couch, like a queen with great determination. Amar" mom I myself want to tell you something. I even tried calling you". He stopped talking when Shikha put his engagement ring over the coffee table infront of him. Amar was spooked up looking at the ring. How come it went to mom's hand, his mind was screaming. With that he turned and deepened his stare at Naveen. However Naveen wasn't bothered and was standing casually. Shikha " So Amar you want me to call off the engagement and stop the wedding arrangements right?". Amar fumbling for words still came up with the courage to tell yes. But Shikha stopped him from telling further and said, take a look at this file. And let me know your decision later. Amar looked at her , if I say to cancel the engagement after reading this will you call it off... Shikha says first take a look Amar and then the ball is in your court. Amar with curiosity opens the file.     Rhea was gloomy even after taking a good sleep, she woke up just to see her mom sleeping next to her with her hands hugging her through her waist. And she turned to look only to see Adi sleeping in the chair. Although it's quite uncomfortable for him. Rhea goes teary. And in a voice that no one could hear, she whispers Thank you daddy, Thank you mummy. You were so good to me, loving me, Caring for me... All these years I lived my life happily. The love you showered upon me made me forget the slightest disturbance and discomfort that lingers sometimes around me. I think God has given me too much of love for me to be happy in this 24 years. only so he planned to put me in a marriage where my husband is unbothered with my feelings. When she says "feelings". She felt like her broken heart is shattered into pieces. She remembers all her sweet memories and drift off to sleep again.     Rithesh waits for Kajal in a coffee shop, As Kajal enters in Rithesh waves at her and Kajal spots his seat. She gets a seat facing him. As they place their order, Kajal places her iPad to take notes from Rithesh words. Rithesh starts saying. Actually Ratim is elder to me for about 13 years didi. He was excellent in everything he do... Including his love life, it was excellent. Kajal didn't pass any comments but was making a gist. He fell in love with his wife (Naiyanika), when he was in his high school. They had a beautiful bond, that even I felt like; one day I too will love someone and get married. They both studied hard and had a great grades. They studied M. B. A. After graduating from chemical engineering. Both went to same college, same class in their bachelors and Masters degree. After Masters Ratim worked under Adi uncle to learn business where as Naiyanika bhabhi learnt business from my dad... They were very serious in getting to know business that they doesn't want their love to be a weakness. So they chose to work in different organisations. After working for about 3 years and learning business, they got married when they were 25. Kajal mind immediately calculated what was her age when they were 25. Her mind beeped 23 and she remembered pursuing  her M.B.B.S. She clears her mind and resume taking notes. .Her notes was like this:1. Name: Ratim Singh (37). 2. Spouse: Naiyanika Singh3. Child: (1) Ajinkya (4). 4. Love marriage.5. 9 years of love turned to marriage. 6. No issues between the couples.7. Business was smooth.8. Childless for 4 years after marriage, gave birth to a baby boy when they were around 29. 9. Wife dies in labour.10. Wife's death caused emotional instability. Leading to emotional outburst..Okay Rithesh can you just explain your brothers reaction when he heard the news of child birth and his wife's death crystal clear, because this is where the trigger has started making him an unstable person. Sure didi I'll explain.Firstly, He stared at her face—pale, still, too quiet.“Ninni…” he whispered, as if the sound of her name could pull her back.No response.He staggered forward, brushing a strand of hair from her forehead. Her skin was still warm. That warmth broke him. She had just been alive. Just been smiling. Just been holding his hand through the pain.His chest tightened until he couldn’t breathe. The walls blurred. A nurse said something about the baby, but the words bounced off him like echoes in a cave.“She wanted to see him,” he mumbled, his voice hollow. “She wanted to hold him first…”His legs gave out. He dropped to his knees beside the bed, clutching her cold hand as his tears finally came. Heavy. Guttural. He sobbed like a man whose soul had been ripped out.A soft wail cut through the air. The newborn.He turned his head, eyes swollen, breath broken.He stared at the baby, tears sliding down his face.“She’s gone,” he whispered, voice cracking. “But I’m still here. And you’re here. For her… I’ll survive.”He kissed the child’s forehead, then pressed him gently against his chest, closing his eyes, letting both grief and love wash over him like a tide he couldn’t fight.From that day he stopped talking to anyone, he wouldn't let us hold his son. It's just me who will steal few moments from my nephew. And didi even mom and dad are upset, they have said him so many times that he can't go around the world with a baby. Still he has turned deaf. Kajal" so to treat your brother, we should get to know of your nephew. I'll start working with him first. Because a kid who is with an emotionally unstable person from the time of birth, will definitely be affected by his behaviour effect. And my suggestion is first let's focus on Ajinkya. If that happens it's easy to get your brother treated". Thanks didi. It's okay Rithesh am just doing my job. Kajal pays the bill even before Rithesh pays off and both leaves in their ways after waving at eachother. Upra's Revenge....   Â
