14. Roses ?

A D V I T

It's been two days since Aditya bhaiya came home. He comes in the morning, stays for 1 or 2 hours and goes out.

Anya bhabhi keep asking about him. And today I can't see all this.

I entered the spare house, where he usually stays whenever he feels to think or stay alone.

I saw him drinking whiskey from one hand and with another hand he was working on his laptop. He usually don't drink. It means he is going through something.

"How long you are thinking to stay here ?" I asked.

He looked at me and guestured me to sit. I sat opposite to him.

"Bhaiya ? You can't stay here forever. Anya bhabhi is worried about you. Atleast pick her phone up"

"Advit....right now kriti is important, her safety is my priority for now. And I need silent atmosphere to get some clues who broke into her apartment"

He is right ik but he isn't right 100 percent.

"Then what about Anya bhabhi ?"

"She is safe, don't worry nothing will happen to her. Right now she is studying in her room"

He knows everything about her but he can't understand himself?

"Why don't you accept you love-"

He scoffed.

"Love ? Love is for weak people and I'm not weak to fall in this trap"

"You are lieing bhai....I can see how much you care about her"

"Yes I do ....but there's a reason that I care for her. She has something that I need ....that orphanage.....that's mine and I'll take it from her" He said seriously.

He stood up and went to balcony.

I'm feeling bad for Anya bhabhi here. She is in love with him.

"Idk anything bhai..... tomorrow is karwa chauth......come back , she will be fasting for you" I stood up and went out of the spare house.

Only me and Ansh know about his spare house. What should I do ? I can't see Anya bhabhi this much sad. She doesn't deserve it. She is too innocent for him.

I reached the mansion and went to my room. Dhani is sleeping. Good for me !!

I sat in couch and tried to relax. I want Adi bhaiya to be happy. And ik he can be happy with Anya bhabhi but he don't want to try. He already suffered alot back then ..... I want him to be happy. I can't see him like this anymore.

"Advit ?" I opened my eyes as I heard Dhani calling me.

She came and sat beside me.

"What happened? You are looking stressed" she said while crassing my cheeks.

I hugged her. She crassed my back.

Peace.

"You can share with me" she said.

I pulled away and looked into her eyes. Should I? It's not just about me it's about Adi bhaiya.

I kissed her.

"You are with me, that's what I need"

She pulled away.

"Ik there's something else ...but it's alright I will not force you"

She kissed me again.

I stood up with her in my arms and went to bed.

I laid her down and kissed her neck while hovering over her.

"Can I ?" Ik she will understand what I meant. She nodded.

I opened her shirt's button and threw it away. I kissed her stomach and came up while kissing.

"You are soo beautiful" I kissed her forehead

I slide down her bra slowly. Now she is half naked infront of me. I kissed her lips.

"I'm a virgin "

"I already know, sweetheart"

As Advit went. I looked at the moon.

"Why don't you accept you love-"

"You are lieing bhai....I can see how much you care for her"

Yes I care for her but that doesn't connect anytime to love. The day she married me, I knew I had to care for her.

But love? No

"Will maa be proud of me ?" I looked at the stars.

"Maa ? What's that?" I asked looking at the small temple-like thing.

"That's a temple beta .....this temple means alot to me this ....was the place where I and your dad got married" She said but I am just 3 years old , I didn't understood anything.

She did puja and a Panditji gave us prasad.

"I'll make a temple here....in the name of our family ..." She said while looking at the vacant land

"Yess we will" My dad hugged her with one hand as on another hand my sister was there.

"Me too me too" They knelt down and we hugged each other. I kissed my sister's cheeks.

I smiled at the little memories that ik from my childhood.

I got disturbed as Maa called me , at this hour ?

"Wherever you are ...you will come home Tommorow !!!" She said in serious tone.

I laughed " Alright maa , I'll"

Today is karva chauth....will he come ?

Right now I'm wearing a light red saree as a ritual. All day without food isn't tuff for me.

I went downstairs only to see that Ansh and Advit are giving instructions to decorate the Mansion.

It will be fun today I think.

I saw Dhani giving tea to Ansh and Advit. She blushed when Advit said something to her. They are cute.

But where is my Aditya ? I looked at the front door. I saw a talk figure coming inside the living room.

"Yaar ...who do fast for others ? I can't do these things" kriti said while eating fruits.

"Kara karo warna moti ho jaogi chipkali" The guy who just entered the living room said. All looked at him.

"Reyansh" Ansh hugged him.

"Suddenly in India ?"

"Yeah .... Came here for some important work" Reyansh said.

He took blessings from Maa and papaji

"Your health is alright? Are you eating well ? Dekho kaise patla ho hogya h ....wait I'll make something for you" Maa said while seeing him from up to down

"Areyy....maa no need for this" He hugged her.

Maa ? Another son ? I didn't know about it why ?

"Who is he ?" Dhani asked me in whisper.

I shook my head in response.

He came infront of us

"Uhm....namaste bhabhi...I wasnt able to come to your marriage...I'm sorry from both of you" He said .

He looks so polite and calm type.

"It's alright we can understand your situation too Reyansh" Advit said while standing beside Dhani.

"Wo sab toh thik hai .....Adi bhaiya kaha hai ?" He asked while looking around.

"He is busy in some work" Advit said.

"Aise kon introduction karata h bebo?" Ansh hugged Reyansh.

"Pls don't start again Ansh" Reyansh said in disbelief.

"Bhabhi meet Reyansh rossi...he is my bestfriend...my bebo...and the fun fact he grew up in this Mansion...like brothers"

"Everything is good but stop calling me bebo" Reyansh said while freeing himself from Ansh.

Ansh 2.0

We went to kitchen to cook food for the males. Why I feel aditya won't come ? I tried to call him almost 50 times but he isn't picking up.

"Akadu billa kahi ka" kriti said while putting the coffee down in anger.

What happened to her suddenly?

"Why your mood is off ?" Dhani asked.

"That Reyansh .....he always teases me....am I short ? I'm almost 5'4" it's his fault he is 6'2" She said while complaining.

I think they fight like tom and jerry. Afterall Reyansh is Ansh 2.0.

"I'm still confused about a thing .....why is he addressing maa and papa to our parents ?" Dhani asked. She is bold, she doesn't think what others will think about her.

"Uhm... because he is orphan bhabhi" Kriti said in low tone.

Orphan ? Maa and papa treats him as their own kid ? Wow they are really angles.

I took Maa's medicine to library as she is arranging the library. She again forgot her medicine.

"Maa ? Your medicine" I placed it into the table.

"Thank you bache"

I took the books from her hands.

"Go take your medicine....I'll arrange it" she smiled and went to take her medicine.

I arranged the books but something caught my eyes. Family album ? I took it out and sad beside her where she was arranging some papers.

"Maa can I see it ?" I asked. She nodded while smiling.

I turned the album. Wow the first pages are full of child's pic.

I looked at one pic closely , it might be Aditya. He was handsome childhood.

When I turned to see more , I saw some strange people as I don't know them i ignored but something caught my eyes again.

A family photo of four people. Aditya , a baby in a woman's hand and man. Who are they ? The baby might be kriti I think. But as I turned the album more I didn't saw any photos of them.

As a curiosity I asked maa

"Maa ? Who are they ?"

She looked at the photo and her face echoed with sadness.

"Aditya's parents"

My brain stopped at her words. His parents ? But then maa papa ? Huh ?

"He is the younger brother of your papaji and she is his wife....Aditya is their kid. But you know one thing ? I love Aditya like my own kid" she said while looking at the photo

"Where are they ?" I asked .

"Heaven....he was only 3 when they left this world. I raised Aditya" she said while looking at me.

"Ik you are still confused Anya....you can be because we never ever mention this thing after they died. I treat Aditya as my kid. Almost 29 years ago doctor said I can't get pregnant but I was never sad because Aditya was like my son. But sad thing happened and on that accident they died"

Why did it broke my heart? He never talked about this things till now to anyone? What kind of pain he might be carrying every day.

"And that baby ? Is she kriti ?" I asked.

"No....she was his sister....she also died."

I looked back at the picture. The baby ? Who looks just about 6 months ?

"Anya ? Don't leave my Aditya even if he behave like idiot"

I held her hands " maa I'll never leave him....infact .....I love him"

She crassed my cheeks "Ik , I can see in your eyes....but don't get sad about how he behaves ....trust me he also likes you but he is afraid to accept....he never tells us that he loves us but his actions speaks louder than words....give him some time ...I saw the changes after you came into his life"

After talking with maa , I am not feeling good. I wanted to talk to Aditya but she said not to ask anything until he open up.

We are at terrace as the rituals started. I am wearing a dark red saree and bangles. Maa and Dhani are preparing things as their husband is here but what will I do if Aditya didn't came ?

I looked down at the entrance.

Pls come Aditya. I'm already missing you too much.

As the moon showed up they started doing Arti and breaking fast.

Ansh sat beside me.

"How about you break your fast too bhabhi ?" He said.

"I'll ...once Aditya will come"

"Don't wait too much bhabhi .....you are already fasting and I don't want you to get weak"

I just smiled. Behind his mischievous behaviour he cares for all. I can understand why everyone loves Ansh.

But I can't break my fast without Aditya.

"Anya ? We are going downstairs...come with us beta.... Eat something" Maa said but I declined her offer.

I'm sitting at the terrace alone. It's already 11 at night. I think he won't come.

I took my plate and stood up but due to weakness I was about to fall but a strong hand grabbed my waist.

"Jab hota nhi hai toh karti kyu ho?" I looked as Aditya said.

He came !!! I am soo happy.

He took the plate from my hand and made me stand properly.

I completed the rituals and broke my fast.

I'm beyond happy that I want to hug him but I should know my limit. I can't let him go away again.

"Let's go grab some food" He said while looking down.

Why is he treating me like we just got married .? I was about to go but I saw faint blood mask in his shirt.

I grabbed his left arm which he was hiding. He jerked his hands away.

"I said ...let's go for dinner"

I took his hands and folded his sleeves up.

"I'm a doctor Mr Aditya Singhania"

To my surprise he didn't say anything and let me examine . It looks like he got hurt by some sharp thing. But how ? Did he got into some fight ?

"I need to clean this ....let's go to room" he nodded like a obidient child .

We got into room and I saw a plate of food in his right arm.

I took the first aid kit and started cleaning the wound.

"Is it paining?" I asked while cleaning it.

"Hm...no" He said while making me eat.

These are the things which are making me fall in love with him more and he ask me to stay in limit ?

After bandaging his hand i sat beside him and looked at him.

"You won't ask ?" He asked .

"You won't tell me ....so I'll not ask" I stood up and went to open my earings.

"You didn't asked gift for karwa chauth ?" He said.

"I don't expect it" I said while removing the makeup.

"Uhm.....these are for you" I turned and saw a small bouquet of roses in his hand.

"For me ?" I asked in surprise. He placed the flowers in my hand.

"Just take it" he said and went out of the room.

I looked at the flowers.

"Kya pyaar ki gadi aage badh rhi h ?" I said and smiled like idiot.
