FATE TWISTED BY LOVE

CHAPTER 29

Naina didn't know when she too drifted to sleep while patting her husband's head. It was more than two hours that she woke up with a start hearing continuous knocks on the door. Her sudden movement broke Sameer's slumber too. Sameer gave a soft smile to his wife & walked to open the door.

"Sameer Bhaiya... Nanaji aap dono ko neeche bula rahe hai.", Ramdhari informed him the moment the door was opened. "Hum fresh hokar aate hai thodi der mein.", Sameer replied with a smile. Naina too had heard it & went to freshen up. Sameer sat down on the couch & replayed all the conversation that happened between them.

He smiled a little recalling how he had opened up to his wife. He had never shared his pain with anyone. But today, he had done that. He felt good after sharing his past with Naina, the heavy weight of the pain that he carried since his childhood had finally been lifted. He felt much lighter & better now.

He was lost in his thoughts so much that he didn't hear the click of the door opening & closing behind him. It was when Naina patted his shoulder twice, he came back to present. "Sameer... Aap thik toh hai na???" He stood up facing his wife with a smile, "Main ab ekdum thik hun Naina... Bas aise hi kuch soch raha tha."

Before she could ask more, he spoke, "Aisa karo, tum neeche jao. Main paanch minute mein fresh hokar aata hun." She nodded & left the room. While she was preparing the tea & coffee for the evening, Munna & Pandit arrived. She was surprised seeing them for the second time that same day.

Sameer too came downstairs at the same time & asked his friends, "Tum dono iss time yahaan kya kar rahe ho?" His friends looked a little worried. "Sameer... wohh California waale project mein thoda problem ho gaya hai, wohh clients tumse urgently baat karna chahte hai.", Munna said worriedly.

"Main bas abhi taiyaar hokar aata hun.", saying that Sameer rushed upstairs to change. Ramdhari served tea & coffee to Nanu, Munna & Pandit while Naina carried two cups of coffees to the room. When she entered, she saw Sameer already ready in his grey suit.

"Sameer... yeh coffee pi lijiye. Ummm... kya aap office jaane se pehle mujhe NGO chod denge? Main thoda time wahaan unn ladkiyon ke saath bitaana chaahti hun, dekhna chaahti hun ki unki dance practice acche se ho rahi hai yaa nahi." He agreed & Naina went to change. Both of them walked down together hand in hand while Nanu, Munna & Pandit smiled watching the happy couple.

Sameer dropped Naina at the NGO & left towards his office. When Naina entered, she saw the girls playing in the garden. She sat down on the bench nearby & watched them with misty eyes. She had promised herself that she wouldn't cry anymore that day but after watching these orphan girls, she couldn't stop her tears.

The girls were busy in playing & hadn't noticed Naina yet. After few minutes, she felt someone's presence beside her & she turned to see Kabir sitting next to her, who was looking at the girls with tears flowing from his eyes too. Naina looked forward & both of them sat silently shedding tears.

After few minutes passed, Kabir spoke, "Naina... tum shaayad yeh toh jaanti ho ki yahaan sab ladkiyan anaath hai par tum yeh nahi jaanti ki hume yeh sab kinn haalaaton mein mili thi. Inn mein se kuch ladkiyan wohh hai jinhe unke parents ne unhe mandir ki seedhiyon par chod diya. Kuch toh hume kachre ke dibbe mein se bhi mili thi aur kuch ladkiyan wohh hai jinhe unke parents ne bech diya tha. Jab bhi police ko koi aisi bachiyon ki khabar milti toh wohh unhe yahaan chod jaate."

Kabir turned to look at Naina who was still crying watching those orphan girls. "Nanaji ne jab yeh NGO khola tha tab unka yahi maksad tha ki inn sab ladkiyon ko kaabil banaa sake, unhe independent banaaye, unhe protect kare. Jab Nanaji ne mujhe iss NGO se judne ka mauka diya toh maine khushi khushi accept kar liya. Jaanti ho kyun???"

Naina finally met his eyes & asked in a choked voice, "Kyun???" Kabir smiled faintly amidst his tears & spoke, "Anaath hone ka dard mujhse accha kaun samaj sakta hai Naina? Mummy toh bohot pehle hi guzar gayi thi. Papa bhi apne kaam mein busy rehte the, toh bas fir main aur Preeti hi the ek dusre ke liye. Main tab se hi bada ho gaya. Sabhi responsibilities lene lagaa. Papa jab ghar par hote toh main unse thoda thoda kaam seekhne lagaa."

"Preeti ke liye main ek bhai hi nahi balki maa aur baap bhi bann gaya. Papa kabhi kabhi foreign bhi jaate the aur hum akele yahin ghar pe rehte. Tab se maine wohh sab farz nibhaaye jo meri mummy papa ko nibhaane chahiye the. Ek din papa ko bhi heart attack aa gaya aur tab se unki tabiyat acchi nahi rehti thi. Mera college khatam ho gaya tha tab, aur main aage padhna chaahta tha, par haalat aise the ki main foreign nahi jaa paaya apni studies ke liye."

"Maine hamari company ko join kiya aur uske saath saath maine correspondence se aage ki studies complete ki. Difficult zaroor tha par maine din raat ek kar diya yeh sab karne ke liye. Preeti toh hamesha se hi sabki laadli rahi hai. Mujhse jyaada laad uske papa ne kiye hai, isliye jab papa guzre toh wohh poori tarah toot gayi."

"Preeti ko sambhalna bohot mushkil ho gaya tha mere liye. Papa ka sapna tha ki wohh ek chota sa café banaana chahte the, par uske pehle hi wohh chal base. Maine apni kamaayi se wohh café kharida kyunki mujhe Preeti ko thik karna tha, usse khush dekhna tha. Papa ke guzar ne ke baad Preeti depression mein chali gayi thi. Aur café se accha koi option nahi tha mere paas."

"Jaise jaise Preeti uss café mein jaane lagi, wohh thik hone lagi, khush rehne lagi. Usne khudko poori tarah café ke kaam mein busy kar diya. Main bhi meri company aur NGO mein busy rehne laga, par fir bhi main apni behen ke liye time nikaal hi leta. Roz café mein uski help karne jaata."

He closed his eyes & let the tears flow. "Main samaj sakti hun Kabir ki aapke liye yeh sab akele karna kitna mushkil raha hoga. Ek taraf aapka business tha aur ek taraf Preeti. Par sach kahun Kabir, aaj Preeti jo bhi hai wohh sab aapki wajah se hi hai. Aapne sachmuch Preeti ko bohot acche se sambhaala hai."

Kabir smiled & then looked ahead, breaking his gaze from her, "Naina... Hum ek hi naav par sawaar hai. Inn ladkiyon ka dard hum dono samaj sakte hai kyunki hum dono ne apne parents ko khoya hai, unki kami hamesha rahegi hamari zindagi mein. Hum dono ki life almost same hai. Tumhare saath tumhare Nanaji the aur mere saath Preeti."

Naina spoke in a choked voice, "Ab toh Nanaji bhi nahi rahe." Kabir looked at her & replied, "Bhagwaan ne tumse tumhare Nanaji zaroor le liye par unke badle tumhe aur dusre rishtey bhi diye hai Naina. Sameer ke Nanaji, Preeti aur fir Sameer bhi toh hai ab."

Naina smiled remembering that she definitely was blessed to have them all in her life now. "Aapne sach kahaa Kabir. Main lucky hun ki meri zindagi mein itne pyaar karnewaale Nanaji aaye aur mujhe do do best friends bhi mil gaye."

Kabir understood that she was referring to his sister & his friend as her best friends now. So, Sameer had finally befriended Naina. He was very much happy hearing this. Finally, Sameer had taken a step towards his relationship with Naina & Kabir was glad that his friend had understood it.

Keeping his happiness in bay, he looked ahead. Taking a deep breath, he spoke, "Naina... Main jaanta hun ki tum mere saath hamesha uncomfortable rehti ho aur main iske peeche ki wajah bhi jaanta hun." Naina was looking at him while he continued looking ahead.

"Naina... aaj main jo bhi kahunga sab sach hi kahunga. Please meri poori baat shaanti se pehle sunn lena." She just hummed in response & he continued, "Naina... Maine jabse tumhe dekha tha, tabse tum mujhe bohot pasand thi, aur ab bhi ho. Aur issi wajah se tum mere saath uncomfortable rehti ho. Par jab se mujhe pataa chala hai ki tum Sameer ki biwi ho, toh ab wohh pasand maayne nahi rakhti aur mujhe meri hadd bhi pataa hai Naina. Main kabhi jaanbujhkar tumhara aur Sameer ka rishta nahi todunga."

"Tum mere friend Sameer ki wife ho aur ussi rishtey se tum meri Bhabhi hui. Aur main apne sabhi rishtey acche se samajta hun aur uski haddein bhi jaanta hun. Main pehle bhi tumse dosti karna chaahta tha aur aaj bhi karna chaata hun. Par yeh tab tak mumkin nahi hai jab tak tum mere saath comfortable na ho jao."

"Naina... tum meri behen ki best friend ho aur ab toh meri Bhabhi bhi ho, toh kya hum dost nahi bann sakte? Main tumse dosti karne ke liye zabardasti nahi karunga par yeh ummeed karta hun ki tum ek din mujhe bhi apna dost maanogi. Main nahi jaanta tum mere baare mein kya sochti ho, kya mehsoos karti ho. Main aaj tumse bas itna promise kar sakta hun ki main hamesha tumhari utni hi izzat karunga jitni main Preeti ki karta hun. Jab bhi tumhe meri zarurat hogi, main hamesha tumhara saath dunga."

Kabir wiped his tear-stained face & was about to get up when he heard her voice, "Main bhi kuch kehna chaahti hun Kabir." He stopped right then & looked at her. She gestured him to sit & he obliged. Kabir kept his gaze on her while she continued watching the girls.

After gathering her thoughts, she said, "Kabir... Aapne sach kahaa... Main aapke aaspaas hamesha hi uncomfortable rahi hun. Mujhe aapki nazar se hi aapke dil ki baat samaj aa gayi thi, ki main aapko pasand hun. Main tab aapko bataana chahti thi ki main married hun par haalat aise nahi the jahaan main aapko wohh sab bataa paati, isliye main aapse jyaada baat nahi karti thi."

"Kabir... Main bhi aapki bohot izzat karti hun. Aapne uss raat mujhe unn gundon se bachaaya tha. Issi se mujhe pataa chal gaya tha ki aapki niyat kabhi kharaab ho hi nahi sakti. Aap jitni izzat Preeti, Anjali aur meri karte hai, usse dekhne ke baad main itna keh sakti hun ki aap sabki utni hi izzat karenge. Agar uss raat meri jagah koi aur bhi ladki hoti tab bhi aap uski madad karte."

"Kabir... main aapke saath uncomfortable hun par itna toh mujhe bhi samaj aata hai ki aap kitne acche insaan hai. Mere apne reasons the aapse durr rehne ke, aapse baat na karne ke, par iska yeh matlab nahi hai ki aap bure hai yaa aap mein koi kami hai. Main married hun isliye main aapko koi jhoothi ummeed nahi dena chaahti thi."

"Par aaj haalaat alag hai kyunki aapko pataa hai ki main aapke friend ki biwi hun. Accha hua aapne mujhse aaj sab sach kahaa, jisse mujhe aage ka faisla lene mein aasaani ho gayi. Main aapko itne dinon se dekh rahi hun Kabir aur aapne kabhi mere paas aane ki yaa baat karne ki koshish nahi ki. Issise pataa chalta hai ki aap meri kitni izzat karte hai."

"Kabir... Aapne mujhse abhi promise kiya ki ek dost ki tarah aap meri hamesha izzat karenge aur hamesha mera saath denge. Toh main bhi aaj aapse promise karti hun Kabir ki main bhi hamesha aapka ek dost ki haisiyat se aapka saath dungi. Izzat toh kamaayi jaati hai Kabir aur meri nazron mein wohh tohh aapne bohot pehle hi kamaa li hai."

Wiping her tears, she forwarded her hand towards him, "Mr Kabir Sehgal... Kya aap mujhe apni friend banaa sakte hai?" With a broad smile on his handsome face, he shook her hand, promising himself that he would give her all the happiness she deserved in her life & her happiness was Sameer.

The girls who were playing around finally noticed them on the bench nearby & ran to them. "Arey Naina didi... aap kab aaye?", one of the girls asked & then the other continued, "Accha hua aap aa gayi. Ab aap hamara dance performance ek baar dekh lijiye. Kal hume final performance stage par dena hai." Naina got up & headed with the girls to the hall while Kabir went back to his cabin happily.

After leaving from the temple, he had dropped Preeti home & had returned to the NGO to check the preparations of the celebration which was going to take place the next day. He was attending a call standing near the window, when his eyes caught sight of Naina sitting on the bench. Even from afar he knew that she was sad & was crying watching the girls playing in the garden. He felt a wave of protectiveness towards her & headed to meet her.

And then he had decided to have a heart-to-heart conversation with her. And now he was happy that at least Naina was his friend. He wanted to spend some time with her but he knew that the girls too needed her for dance practice. He went back to his work & almost after half an hour, Preeti barged in his cabin.

It was more than two hours when Sameer stepped out of his car at the NGO. He was done with his urgent meeting & had come to pick up his wife. It was already a little dark & he walked towards the hall knowing that she would be dancing with the girls.

The scene that greeted him gave him the shock of the lifetime. Naina was sitting next to Kabir while Preeti & Anjali were dancing with the girls, synchronizing their steps. Naina had called them up & asked to join her for the dance performance. She had decided that all the three friends would join the girls on stage the next day as the girls had requested them to.

Munna & Pandit stood behind their best friend & were amused to see the change in the scene before them. Naina was doubling in laughter with Kabir over Preeti's dance steps while Preeti was seething in anger. Pandit nudged Sameer, "Bhai... yahin khade rehne ka iraada hai yaa andar bhi jaana hai?"

Munna almost pushed Sameer ahead & that's when Naina's attention drew towards them. She got up instantly & walked to her handsome husband who was standing there with hands folded at his chest. Munna & Pandit sauntered off towards their girls while Sameer was glaring at his friend.

His gaze met Naina once & then moved behind, catching Kabir's stare who just winked in response. Sameer didn't understand why he was so insecure seeing his wife & his friend together. Maybe it was because he knew that his friend was interested in his wife.

Naina stood right in front of him & observed his handsome furious face. She knew that he won't like her friendship with Kabir & yet she had gone forward with it. Kabir was genuinely a nice person & she had known that since last few weeks. Yes... she had maintained her distance before but now when he knew that she was married, she thought that there was no harm in befriending him.

Naina knew what she had to do to get her angry husband's attention back to her. Taking a deep breath, she closed the distance between them & hugged him. Sameer's heartbeats had almost stopped beating the moment, she had taken steps towards him. Before he could understand, what she was upto; her hands were wrapped around him.

All the air whooshed out of his lungs as he felt her warmth around him. He closed his eyes & wrapped his hands around her waist, tugging her close. Her fragrance intoxicated him & he was lost in her that he forgot all about Kabir & his friends until they heard few girls giggling loudly behind them.

They parted & looked around to see the mischievous smiles on their friends' faces. Sameer looked in Kabir's direction & held his gaze. He wounded his arm around Naina's shoulder & walked towards the group of the girls. Kabir though maintained a blank face in front of Sameer but was doing a happy dance mentally.

Naina joined the group of the girls for one last time for dance practice. The boys discussed about the final preparations for the next day. After fifteen minutes, as they were leaving, the girls came running towards Naina & hugged her tightly. Sameer was content seeing his wife smile & happy around the girls. They reached home at the dinner time & updated Nanu about the meeting & the preparations for the next day celebration in the NGO.

Nanu was happy watching the couple as he could see the changes between them. He could clearly see that they were getting much more comfortable around each other. Their eyes spoke volumes whenever they looked at each other. The changing dynamics between the two were very much visible to everyone around. Not only Nanu but the others too felt the same.

Once they retired to their rooms, Naina went to freshen while Sameer was talking on the phone with his assistant asking him to reschedule his meetings of the next day to some other days. By the time Naina came out of the washroom, Sameer had finished his call & was waiting for her.

"Naina... mujhe icecream khaane ka bohot mann ho raha hai. Kya tum mere saath icecream khaane chalogi?", he asked a little nervously. Naina sensed his nervousness & added, "Sach kahun Sameer, toh mujhe bhi icecream khaane ka bohot mann ho raha tha. Bohot din ho gaye hai icecream khaaye. Chaliye..."

Sameer didn't know what to say more & forwarded his hand. She placed her hand in his & both of them walked out together. Nanu was already asleep so Sameer locked the door & they quietly left in the car. The car drive was silent till they reached the icecream parlour in the next five minutes.

As there wasn't any place to sit in the parlour, Sameer asked Naina, "Kaunsa flavour khaaogi Naina? Main yahin le aata hun, andar toh kahin baithne ki jagah nahi hai." She too looked around for a while & mumbled, "Main toh chocolate icecream hi khaaungi." He asked her to sit in the car till he brought the ice-creams.

Sameer returned after five minutes with two scoops of chocolate icecream for his wife & two scoops of roasted almost for him. They ate discussing their college days. Sameer told her about his college life with Munna, Pandit & Kabir while she reminisced how people pulled pranks on her in school & college.

Sameer muttered under his breath, "Mujhe wohh log mil gaye na jisne Naina ko school aur college mein pareshaan kiya tha, toh unhe main chodunga nahi." Naina looked at him intently & asked, "Aapne kuch kahaa?" He smiled sweetly at her, "Nahi... Maine toh kuch nahi kahaa."

After finishing their ice-creams, they went back home chatting happily. Once home, Naina was pulling out the quilt & pillow from the cupboard while Sameer kept looking at her. As she moved towards the couch, she saw him staring at her, especially her lips. Her lips quivered in response & she asked, "Aap... aapko kuch chahiye???"

He didn't reply & got up from his bed. She didn't move & waited for him to reach her. As he neared, she shivered slightly as his gaze was stuck on her lips. He stood just a foot away from her & his gaze moved from her lips to her widened eyes.

"Wohh... thodi icecream lagi hai, tumhare lips ke neeche." Before she could grasp his words, he took a step ahead & cleared the icecream with his finger. His next action made Naina shudder as she saw him licking the same finger. He tasted the chocolate icecream & whispered, "Yeh icecream toh meri waali icecream se bhi jyaada tasty hai."

Sameer winked at his blushing wife & went back to his bed while Naina stood rooted to her place for the next few moments, bringing back her raging heartbeats to normal. He switched off the lights & his gaze landed on the empty couch. Where was she??? In darkness, he saw his loving wife still standing near the couch.

He smiled to himself. He had desperately wanted to taste the icecream with his own lips but he had somehow controlled his urge & cleaned it with his finger. He was surprised with his own behaviour. He had never felt something like that for anyone till date but his wife seemed to be an exception.

His gaze again went towards the couch where his wife was now sleeping. He too closed his eyes & drifted to sleep immediately, finally the tiredness taking a toll on his body. It was definitely a long day for both of them & it had come to a beautiful end with them relishing their favourite ice-creams.

It was in the middle of the night when Sameer got up suddenly hearing some sounds coming from the washroom. He switched on the lights & found the couch empty. He strode towards the bathroom & knocked twice. "Naina... Naina... Kya hua? Tum thik toh ho?" When there was no reply, he knocked again. "Naina... Naina..."

The door opened & she came out but didn't even glance at her worried husband. She sat down on the couch holding her stomach. Sameer didn't understand what was wrong with his wife. He sat down beside her & asked in concern, "Naina... Kya hua hai? Tum thik nahi lag rahi?"

She neither met his worried gaze nor did she reply. She just kept on rubbing her stomach & back. Sameer sat there confused on seeing her behave so coldly with him. He slowly shifted close to her & wrapped his arm around her shoulder. In reflex, she rested her head on his shoulder.

He tried again, "Naina... dekho... mujhe ab darr lag raha hai. Bolo na kya hua hai? Main promise karta hun ki tumhara har dard mitaa dunga." He saw her clutching her stomach again. He asked softly, "Naina... tumhare pet mein dard ho raha hai kya? Main doctor uncle ko bulaa leta hun."

She instantly denied, "Nahi... Sameer... Itni raat ko doctor uncle ko bulaane ki zarurat nahi hai. Main... main thik hun." Sameer could clearly see that she was very much in pain. So, he insisted, "Dekho Naina... tumhe dekhkar bilkul nahi lag raha ki tum thik ho. Please mujhe doctor uncle ko bulaa lene do. Tumhe check karenge toh shaayad hume pataa chal jaayega ki tumhe pet mein kyun dukh raha hai."

Her misty eyes met his & she whispered, "Doctor kuch nahi kar sakte Sameer... yeh pain toh mujhe har mahine hota hi hai. Aap fikar mat kijiye, main thodi der mein thik ho jaaungi." Sameer held her for few more minutes & tried understanding what all she said. She was having stomach ache very month & she didn't need a doctor for that.

Then it suddenly clicked his mind & he asked, "Naina... tumhare periods shuru ho gaye hai kya?" She stiffened beside him & moved away. When she didn't reply, he asked again, "Bolo na Naina? Chup kyun ho gayi?" She looked embarrassed. How could she discuss all this with him?

Sameer sat down near her knees & held her hands. "Naina... Hum ab acche dost bann gaye hai aur humne promise kiya tha ki hum kuch nahi chupaayenge ek dusre se, toh fir ab batao, kya tumhare periods shuru ho gaye hai?" She looked at his concerned face & nodded. He asked again, "Isliye tumhe itna pet mein dukh raha hai?" She nodded again a little awkwardly.

He shook his head & asked, "Aur aise time par tum koi medicines leti ho kya? Tumhe dekhkar main itna toh keh sakta hun ki tumhe bohot dard ho raha hai." She replied softly, "Actually tablets khatam ho gayi thi last month hi aur uske baad main laana bhool gayi." He spoke, "Aisa karo mujhe uss medicine ka naam do, main le aata hun abhi."

He stood up to go while she held his hand tightly, "Nahi Sameer... abhi bohot raat ho gayi hai aur abhi koi chemist bhi khula nahi hoga. Aap fikar mat kijiye, main thik hun." He just glared at her & asked, "Tum mujhe naam de rahi ho yaa nahi???"

She too got up & shouted in the same tone, "Aapko samaj nahi aa raha ki bohot raat ho gayi hai? Chaliye aap chupchaap so jaaiye. Maine kahaa na main thik hun..." Sameer was surprised or rather shocked hearing that tone from her for the first time.

Naina immediately mellowed down realizing how she reacted. She turned her face away from him & said, "I'm sorry Sameer... Mujhe aise aap par chillana nahi chahiye tha. Aap please so jaaiye, main thik ho jaaungi."

Sameer turned her & met her misty gaze, "Please Naina... main tumhe itne pain mein nahi dekh paaunga. Mujhe medicine ka naam dedo warna mujhe itni raat ko Preeti ya Anjali ko call karke poochna padega." And that did it.

She picked up her handbag & searched for the empty medicine strip. She handed over to him quietly & he collected his wallet & left but not before kissing her forehead softly, "Main abhi thodi der mein aa jaaunga."

She opened the balcony door & saw him leaving in his car. She took deep breaths & looked at the starry sky, "Mummy... maine kabhi nahi socha tha ki aisa bhi din aayega jab mere liye medicines lene Sameer aadhi raat ko baahar jaayenge."

She had a faint smile on her face knowing that this was the first time she had shared about such intimate thing, that too with her caring husband. She had forgotten the pain when she thought about her husband cum friend.

After fifteen minutes she saw his car entering the gates & she slowly turned to enter their bedroom. She closed the balcony door & waited for him. He entered their room after ten more minutes carrying a polythene bag & then her eyes landed on his other hand which had a hot water bag.

Her eyes misted immediately. He kept the carry bag on the side table & made her sit on the bed. He placed the hot water bag on her stomach which immediately brought relief to her. He gave her the medicine & then made her sleep on his bed. Sameer was happy seeing his wife finally feeling a little better.

Naina opened her eyes & looked at her caring husband, "Thank you Sameer..." He kissed her forehead & whispered, "Goodnight wifey... ab so jao..." She drifted to sleep immediately & Sameer too dozed off next to her within minutes...

How was the update???

Finally... Naina & Kabir are friends...

So, what do you think, what will happen next?

I'm going to be busy this week too as the office inspection starts tomorrow...

But I promise that I will give you two back-to-back updates next weekend...

Stay safe & take care...

Ignore the mistakes...

With Lots of Love,

Daksha...❤
