Aman's POV...

Today i felt too tired and decided to go home early...

As i entered my house and looked on my right side , i saw Drishti's head on Bhuvan's shoulder and Bhuvan was hugging her...

I wanted to tell them to go to their room , jk... But the day before yesterday was hard for them... Things became so intence that they litterally talked about divorce... That did shook me and Tripti and we even discussed about it in the night... i was about to leave then i heard-

Bohot dard hota hai Bhuvan, jab aapka first love aapko har time hurt kare , inferior feel karwaaye... (snd i stood right there to hear , i know this is wrong but that is related to my baby brother)

Is baar nahi ho paayega mujhse , naa hi expect karna...  Aapne is baar apni limits cross kardi , mujhe physically bhi or apne words se sabse jyaada hurt kiya haii aapne...(drishti said moving away from Bhuvan's hold and wiped her tears)

Bhaiya ne mujhe choose kiya tha , or bhabhi ke promise ki wajah se aap itna kar rahe the na mere liye... me aapko is rishtey se aazad karti hu... bas aap divorse papaers bhejdena...(She said and pushed Bhuvan back lightly and she aas about to turn but our eyes met and we both looked at each other and slowly her eyes welled up and immediately she turned and went and i heard a *thud and looked at Bhuvan he was on the ground crying)

Bhuvan!!(i said as i settled too and he hugged me tightly and cried)

Galti ho gayi mujhse yaar...(He cried harder and kept on mumbling, i kept on consoling him)

----------

Bhuvan's POV...

I woke up and sat on the bed and looked around , i was in aai's room , and i rubbed my eyes as they felt heavy... and I remembered everything ...

i felt my eyes getting numb , I don't want those times back , crying for someone who really doesn't care ... i have already cried nights after Maya , and received depression in return...

And i got off the bed and went out... and saw the time on the wall clock 9:25 pm...

Pawan sab kaha hai??(i asked as i saw Pawan passing by everyone)

Bhaiya dining room me dinner kar rahe hai...(he replied)

Thik haii...(i said and went and had dinner with everyone, there was an awkward silence)

--------

I sat at the edge of my bed as i was just scrolling through my phone but my mind revolved around the happy moments with Drishti...

And there was a knock on the door and the door again creaked open and Aman stepped in and i looked at him and he walked towards me and sat beside me...

Kessa hai??(he asked)

Mujhe kya hona hai first class ...(i replied and looked away)

Hmm .. tabhi aankhe nahi mila paaraha..(Aman said and I didn't replied as that was true)

Mend teri or Drishti ki baat sunli thi...(he continued and I looked at him)

Acha...(i said not knowing what to say)

Kya hua tha us din??(he finally asked)

Woh-woh- kis din??(i played dumb)

Bhuvan!!(he said and i gulped)

To be specific... Tu Drishti ko kamre se bahar le gaya tha uske baad ... (he made this difficult )

Mene use gusse me suna diya...(i said looking down )

Bass??(he said pressuring me)

Nahi woh ..(i gulped )

Woh ??

Woh-

Aage??

Aman woh

Bhuvan!!(that voice was warning for me)

Mene use(I wasn't able to speak)

Tune use?

Bhuvan ab tu mere patience check kar raha hai...(i said in that very triggered tone)

Mene use thapad maar di thi...(i said in one breath and looked elsewhere)

Idhar dekh...(Aman said in a stearn voice and after afew seconds I looked at him)

Wapas bol!(he said and i shook my head and looked down)

Tune use Mara...(Aman said and stood up from my bed)

Me gusse-

Gusse me insaan apni wife ko thapad nahi maar deta hai Bhuvan...(He shouted and i flinched, it's a very few times when he shouts)

Woh Aai -

Galti meri hi thi us din , jis tarah se tu Drishti ko leja raha thawahi rok dena chahiye tha mujhe , tujhe...(he said)

Tu khood realise kar raha hai tune kya kiya hai uske saath??(he said and i nodded)

Nahi , tujhe guilt nahi hai Bhuvan nahi toh tu itni aaram se phone nahi chala raga hota...

Esa nahii haiii...

Toh kesa hai?? Hmm?? Bhuvan tune us par haath uthaya ... Tu uspar hum sabke saamne chilaata haii... or ab tu ro raha haii...

I regret Aman...(i said accepting what he had told me before)

Yes you'll... (he said )

How could you Bhuvan tu esa kabhi nahi tha , tu Women khaaskar teri life me joh bhi log hai unko respect or protect karke rakhta tha... tu mera bhai ho hi bahi sakta ...(he said and walked out of room without saying another word and the door was closed with a bang and i again flinched)

And the door again opened...

Kal tu or me Roy Mansion jaa rahe haii...(he said and went like he ordered me and i huffed and laid back on the bed)

-------------

I woke up and got ready and went down for breakfast...

Good morning...(i wished like everything was normal but nothing was)

Good morning...(everyone ssaid together and i sat on my usual place near aai and looked at Aman but received a cold look)

And Tripti tried to stand up , her tummy was biggest till date... She looked ready to birth the offspring of Bam family ... her one hand rested on her stomach and the other on the table to take support to stand up...

I stood up and held her hand to support but she rejected my support by swinging her hand away and i frowned...

Ek second Tripti...(Aman said and stand up and held her hand and Tripti stood up with his support)

Aai baba me room me jaa rahi hu... (Tripti said and everyone agreed she looked at me and the look i got by that I'm sure she knows what i said to Aman yesterday night)

---------

In the evening.. aroud 4:30...

We entered Roy Mansion...

I've never felt so embarrassed...(Aman whispered to me and i felt bad , because of me he is in this position)

Bhuvan Sir , Aman Sir... please baithiye...(One of the workers said)

No thank you... aap please Shikhar sir ko bula dijiye ... woh ghar par hai???(Aman said not giving me chance to speak)

Jii sir ghar par haii , me bulaati hu... aap baithiyena...please...(She offered so kindly )

Thank you...(i said with a smile and Aman smiled the forced one and we sat on the couch)

Aman... Bhuvan jii... kese ho aap log??(Dad's voice was heard and we both stood up)

Bas ache hai...(Aman said and gave that typical businessman nod and Drishti's dad did the same and i walked towards dad and touched his feet)

Kaafi time baad milna hua aaplogo se... (Dad said)

Haa woh abhi time hi nahi mil raha tha phir Aai ki tabiyat kharaab ho gayi...(Aman said)

Haa, How is she now??(Dad asked)

Better , medicines chal rahi hai...(Aman said )

Oohhh , chalo Drawing room me chaltey hai , aaram se baat karenge...(Dad said and we nodded, and we all went to the room which was just adjacent to the lobby , the room was kind of circular in shape and all the corners or the walls had sofas attached to it and a small tea table in between, giving the room a classy look ... a beautiful meeting room)

Please baitho aaplog... (Dad said and i and Aman settled)

Kese aana hua??(Dad asked observing the awkwardness)

Woh ! Bhuvan or Drishti- (Aman was about to say as we heard a few voices)

Shaayad Bache aagaye company se...(Dad said)

Drishti!!(He called)

Coming dad...(Drishti said)

---------

Drishti's POV...

We all (Nayan Nikhil and i ) came home from the meeting... i was abit tired and we were discussing about the meeting...

Drishti!!(i heard dad's voice , and saw the door to the meeting room open )

Coming dad...(I said )

Chalo tum bhi... Dad ko kisi se introduce karwana hoga...(i saud and we all giggled and i shushed them and we walked there)

And i saw dad sitting right in front of the door...

Eve!! Dad...(i wished) {shortform for Evening}

Eve... Drishti...(Dad wished back)

How was the meeting boys ??(Dad asked )

-Good
-Pretty Good
(They both replied and I looked around and saw Bhuvan and Aman bhaiya sitting on the right side , i was shocked and stood there)

Drishti we have guests greet them...(Dad said as i was staring af Bhuvan)

Hello!!(i said looking at their Direction but my eyes were on Bhaiya completely ignoring Bhuvan sitting just beside bhaiya)

Hiii.. (Bhuvan greeted but i ignored as if he was even sitting here)

Kessi ho Drishti?( Bhaiya asked)

Achi hu Bhaiya...(i replied with a very small smile and Bhaiya smiled back)

Bhaitho aap sab...(Dad said to us)

Dad me thak gayi hu, me room me jaarahi hu...(i said politely)

Baad me rest karlena beta...(Dad said and without anymore arguments, i sat on the left side of the couch followed by my brothers )

Wese Aman ! Drishti Bhuvan ji ka kuch keh rahe the use pehle me ek baat kahunga...(Dad said and I frowned and Bhaiya nodded)

Dekho Aman, ladhai sab couples me hoti hai , that really doesn't mean ke divorce tak baat chali jaaye... or doosra thode din Drishti yaha rukegi phir khud me use bhejdunga...(Dad said and i clenched my jaw)

Dad! (I said)

Drishti enough me tumhe pehle bhi bol chuka hu...(and i decided to be quiet)

Par Mr. Roy, Bhuvan ne sahi nahi kiya, sahi kya use ese-(and my and Bhaiya's eyes connected and i litterally shook my head slowly yet warning him not to say further , cause none in my family members except Nayan knows about this and Bhaiya understood and remained quite)

Anger issues! It's okay... but aapko tack karna aana chahiye ...(Dad said looking at Bhuvan and Bhuvan pressed his lips and gave a nod and looked down)

Chai peeyenge aaplog??(Dad asked but before anyone could say anything Dad continued). Obviously peeyenge hi Time hai yeh Evening snacks kaa...(Dad said and the way he said that was clear that no one should deny)

Drishti jaake chai banao...(Dad said and I looked at him in disbelief)

Me Chef ko keh deti hu...(i said standing up)

Jaha tak mujhe yaad hai tumhe chai banani aati hai... or chef ko hi kehna tha toh me hi nahi keh deta...(Dad said with a kind smile and I looked at him being annoyed but smiled and gave a nod and stood up and started going towards the door)

Drishti!!(Nikhil called me and i turned around )

Ek cup mere bhi...(He said and the look i gave him , he litterally looked scared)

Acha koina nahi banayegi toh bhi chalega...(Nikhil said and gulped and i walked out)

----------

I stood in the kitchen stirring the boiling tea in the vessel...

Aunty please thode snacks ek tray me serve kardo...(i said )

Okay maam...(she said)

Aunty kitni baar bola hai Drishti bola karo aap mujhe...(i said and she smiled sweetly)

and i heard a few steps and turned around to see who it was...Bhuvan and behind him was Nayan...

Jiju please ! Leave her alone..(i heard Nayan)

Nayan ji , me aapko keh chuka hu . I've all the rights to give my clarification ...(Bhuvan said to him)

That's why you slapped her... So, at the end you could just clarify it at the end...(Nayan said in disbelief and i heard aunty who was arranging the tray gasp and i turned towards her )

Aunty aap please , bahar jaaiye... (i requested and she went immediately)

Yeh kya chal raha hai??(i said)

Me tumse baat karna chahta hu...(Bhuvan said)

Bohot kar chuke ho aap... aapki wajah se yeh roi , aap kese iske saamne itne aasani se khade bhi ho saktey ho... i would prefer you'll leave rightnow... and won't budge around her...(Nayan said with alot of authority)

Aap kon ho mere or meri wife ke bichme bolne wale??(Bhuvan said putting his hands in his pocket)

Aapki wife ka twin brother... and aap abhi wife kar rahe ho, kaha the jab yeh akeli baithke baarish me ro rahi thi...(Nayan questioned)

Nayan bas...(i said)

Drishti I'm really sorry, maan jaao , sahi me bohot badi galti ho gayi mujhse , I shouldn't have done that... (Bhuvan said holding my hand but i took my hand away)

Drishti... (he called)

Me wapas chal jaaungi, what is the guarantee aap mujhe wapas hurt nahi karoge ya disrespect nahi karoge...(I said and silence settled between all of us and i smiled)

Aapko khoodko , khood par bharosa nahi haii... How can you expect me to trust you Bhuvan...(i said while I pointed my index finger and kept poking him with it on his chest)

Drishti-(he raised his hand and i flinched and closed my eyes and the memories came crashing through the memory lane but instead of the sting i felt my cheek being caressed and I opened my eyes)

Ese dar mat yarr... me ab kabhi tujh par haath uthaane ki soch bhi nahi sakta ... Woh us din i don't know mujhse kese hogaya...(he said and guilt was clear in his eyes)

And i went away... And stirred the tea yet again..

Aap dono jaao me chai leke aati hu...(I said not looking at them)

Dri-(Bhuvan was about to say)

Aunty please aajao...(i called aunty so there was no room for any discussion)

And they both went and everything was kept and served in the food trolley which was bought by aunty behind me and she kept the trolley in the room and went ... and I served tea to everyone and sat on my place...

And we talked about business... sitting there ...and soon Bhaiya and Bhuvan were about to leave... and i went near Bhuvan...

Bhuvan woh di-divorse papers dekhlena yaarrr please...(i litterally begged for it cause i couldn't initiate the divorse from my side as of the contract)

And he gave me look but didn't acknowledge what i said and went... and suddenly i wanted him right beside me , holding me , caressing my cheek the way he did ... but he was gone...

What are these mixed signals...

To be continued..
