Continuous italiziced text are past of Chandini

***

Arjun

Life can be bitch at times. Why the hell I am turning out to be a sick puppy?!And that too a love sick one. I don't seem to be in control anymore. She is heavily muddling with my brain which I say is not completely good for me. I should break her to take the revenge from that Bastard, technically his sweet point is she .But dear Anu's Devi maa why the hell she should be the whole make of innocence?

When Adith disturbed my date with her yesterday, all I expected was her to throw a fit. She gave me the understanding smile, exactly contradictory to my thoughts. Not that I complain but that understanding act of hers made me guilty and I sent flooding texts to her. Seems like madam slept not caring enough to reply my late messages. She sent me a text in the morning, but who knows what was there in it. To prove my inner self I am in control I didn't open her text till now.

Man chill .Who are you bluffing with uh? I know it took you Herculaneum amount of control to not open that text. My brain tried to do his work rightly on today.

Fuck off you dumb brain, no one asked you here !

Well something terribly is wrong now, that I started speaking with myself. My thought process was interrupted by Adi's entry. He sat by the couch, which clearly means something personal. Well his looks says he is here for some gyan. Why me dear lord? And why today of all days?

"Yea buddy say me" I sat by the ottoman opposite to couch facing Adi .

"Arjun, I not alone love Di but also love you. I can see for the first time you are affected by a girl and that too Chandini. See we decided Chandini to be our trump card for revenge but let me rephrase something now, if even you feel .1% of love towards her .Don't let her go or do something stupid. We can stop our revenge plan and do something to make that bastard pay for playing with our Di life." He looked serious.

I know this man here can read me in and out..Exactly my mind process is what Adi put out in words, but for any reason I am not going to back away from this plan. So I took my defence act and sneered at him

"What made you come to such idiotic conclusions of me having feelings for Chandini buddy?"

"Chillax Man, over years I learnt to read your eyes and not your words. Just the worry you had for Chandini to reach home safe yesterday, the relief you had when she understood your priority for work, and the feel of frustration for not receiving replies for your texts. I am not saying within days you have fallen for her, but don't regret after doing something foolish" Adi reasoned with Arjun

Fuck! Was I that prominent yesterday?! Did what he say is really true? Am I in love?No No No Arjun !! Don't heed any on words. Back on your track.

"Cut the crap Buddy. I am more determined than ever. See, even I fooled you by my acts of concern for her.I am going to revenge the Bastard Dhore as we planned. His love of life, his baby girl, his fiancé the one who he claimed in interviews as he is in head over heels is Chandini. To fight with him at face level and to bring him down is impossible. But I am going to break him just like Anu broke down. I am going to make her fall for me, claim her as mine and throw her away like the dirt she has to be treated for getting acquainted with that Bastard. Then Paparazzi's will buzz him regarding the news and the photos that will be leaked to them by me. His love's pictures in arms of other man" I added with cold voice.

All Adi did was to let out a chuckle. "Ok man as you say, remember any a time if you have change of heart let me know. Because all I feel is you are not cent percent sure on this. We can back off "he waved at me and strolled back to his cabin.

I know it was futile to convince him, but I need time to sort out my feelings for her.Every microsecond, her eyes getting flashed before me. The innocent brown ones filled with warmth making me seriously rethink my decision.

"Oops , Chandini ??Chandini???" I heard Adi's voice in less than a second of him leaving my room.

"Adi What's happening? Why are you calling Chand?" I skipped to where he stood to witness him standing with Chandini in his hands unconscious.

"When I opened the door, she was holding her head and was staggering back, I just in time held her. Call for our Dispensary. I am taking her to the room beside." Adi fired everything at me and reached to the room carrying her.

I was deeply taken down by melancholy, no sane thoughts processed my mind. I was standing there motionless not knowing what to do, for God knows how many minutes. I was shaken by Adi, he took me to the lounge and made me sit.

"Chand ." before I can complete my sentence he butt in saying " I called for the doctor from our dispensary she is checking on Chandini. She is still unconscious."

I just hmmed taking my head in hands. It was hard for me to decipher what happened around me. I care for her and she has managed to topple down my entire world in few days, precisely in no time. It feels like my entire existence is shaken by her.

Just seeing her lifeless in Adi's hand made my heart go freeze in shock. It's always Adi who is sane, controlling in any emergency situation. I know I should reach out to doc in our dispensary, but the lifeless Chandini was flashing before my eyes making me numb.

"Did you realise at least now Arjun? You care for her more than what you say! I saw the same Arjun who stood motionless when Di was in hospital frozen by shock" Adi stated the fact

Right at the moment I realised what if Chandini has overheard all our talks and fainted. She would mistake me. As the thought hit my senses my whole body panicked.

"Bud, would she have heard our talks and fainted?"

Adi looked thoughtful for a moment and declared that cannot be possible, yet she can be the one who confirms on it. It was already 30 minutes still the doctor cannot be seen out.I was about to knock in the room she was in.

At the right instant Doc appeared out, making me sigh in relief. I rushed towards her to inquire what has happened to Chand.

"Mr.Desai , is she your relative?" before I can declare her as my girlfriend Adi butted in saying she is just some random person who is staying in our hotel.

Doctor nodded and said "She is ok now, it was because of exhaustion. She will be alright in a day's rest "

I thanked her and was about to enter the room but Adi pulled me asking

"So what were you about to declare her as? I don't want your answers but remember, that instant thought that rose in your mind is the truth.Just to let you discover yourself i said her as our guest"

Is it true?

I followed him inside the room mutely, well not only Chandini even I need a day's rest to sort my thoughts on her. But right now my priority is she and her health.

She was suddenly looking weak in a single day, her brown eyes gazing on the ceiling as if it held the world's most fantastic design. I was full of guilt and hesitation on thinking what if she witnessed our talks so I kept mum.

It was Adi who took the initiative on clearing his throat to gain her attention. She looked towards us with a vague and blank stare.

"Chandini, are you okay now?" he asked her

"Hmm yea" she replied sitting up and grabbing her handbag which was tossed on the bed by Adi when he dropped her here. I went towards her and sat by her taking her hands in mine.

She didn't resist, she allowed me to gently rub her knuckles with my fingers

"What happened?" he probed her to get answers for our unanswered question.

She upturned her lips, letting us know even she is not aware of what happened.

"Thanks " she muttered looking towards Adi. He nodded his head as an acceptance.

"I need rest, I am going home "she declared to no one in particular. Her voice was slurred and her face echoed her tiredness.

I accompanied her towards the parking in deadly silence before getting into car she looked into my face as if capturing my entire form and saving it in her memory.

"Chand.." she nodded a no asking me not to speak anything ,giving me her understanding smile she fled in her car leaving me alone.

I wanted to believe that she hasn't overheard our conversation, since because no girl in her right state of mind will give a smile to the man who said he is going to throw away her as dirt. She must have fainted just because of exhaustion as doc said. So one of my tension is down now , I must fight the battle of my mind .

Am I in love?

Vrinda was looking at the information Kavya sent to her. Those things made her sick. She now had a valid proof that Pradeep was the one who murdered her bhai and bhabhi in the name of an accident. But this is not enough,she needed lots ore for his other crimes.She needed lot of courage and strength to get into this plan of hers years before. Her entire life collapsed the moment her brother's will and Bhabhi's letter was shared with her. She still remembered the decision she made on that day has cost so much to her in past and will also cost many things in near future.

The moment Vrinda reached the hospital in which Chandini was admitted, she was met with her teacher who was standing by the room she was in.

"Vrinda Dhore" she introduced herself.

"Ms.Dhore we already reported Chandini's behaviour to Mr and Mrs.Dhore on the day they came to include your name as guardian for her. They said she will be given treatment, taken care of but no such things happened before they died. You can come over to school and get her Transfer certificate. We no more can tolerate her violent reactions towards other fellow students." Chandini's teacher flooded the information

"Let me know what is happening with her and you cannot react like this to a petty issue." Vrinda retorted.

"Trying to pour concentrated acid on her fellow classmate in lab class is not a petty issue. Last time she hurt a boy with ruler and the other time with compass before she is getting her break down. She seriously has to be treated."

Vrinda was confused more, she decided to meet the doctor who is treating Chandini and went towards her room. After formal introductions doctor started saying her observations,

"Ms.Dhore prepare yourself for what I am going to say. Chandini is being physically abused. Though she is not raped but I can see so many marks which gives out she is been subjected to abuse from a long time. She is going through an emotional break down and she has to be treated with a psychologist help. With the symptoms her teacher has shared she is turning violent when a boy sits /paired with her for any activities, she is trying to hurt them and herself in the process. Her speech is getting slurred. Also she is closing her ears tying to shutout some voices. With initial observation I can say that she is a victim of a psychological disorder Schizophrenia but until test results comes out we cannot decide what's happening with her. It can be because she is physically abused and in fear of what may happen to her."

Vrinda was in constant pressure. After consulting doctor she took Chandini to Dhore's mansion. Her Bhabhi revealed about how Pradeep was the reason for Chandini physical abuse. When she confronted Pradeep, he went mad and declared Chandini will be his and anyone on his way to achieve that will be dead, even if they shares the blood with him. Seeing the worst behaviour of Pradeep her dear son, Mrs.Dhore decided anything could happen to her and wrote a parting letter to Vrinda to ensure Chandini's safety if she is to be killed by her own son as he stated. Everything was clearly jolted in the letter, if this was a shocker the rest of the information in the letter made her even more shocked. Well now she is not even ready to think of that part of letter.

Vrinda could still not believe that the guy she bought up as her own son can lower to such depths. She loathed him now for being the reason of her bhai and bhabhi's death. She now also has responsibility of Chandini. She has to be kept safe, away from him and also treated for her condition. She came to a conclusion on what has to be done and summoned for her legal advisor to read out will in front of her and Pradeep.

Once the will was read, pradeep was enraged would be an understatement. He was seething like a volcano ready to erupt. The exact reaction Vrinda has expected. Before he could voice out anything Vrinda interrupted him playing her card. She needs Pradeep to believe her entirely.

"Complete bullshit, what has happened to my Bhai to write such a will? Pradeep I am not letting her to claim all your hard earned property. We need to do something. It should be completely owned by you"

Pradeep was happy that his bua is ready to help him out without knowing his true colour. He decided to be a victim and get things done with help of Buaji.

"But Bua if that is what his pa's wish I can give my entire wealth to Chandini." He acted

"No Pradeep I am not letting that happen. Listen to me carefully, I have a plan.I am taking Chandini to Australia to keep our branch there in my control and that is because no one should know Chandini is part of our family, especially media. Now that our family is in this situation media coverage will be upon us for few more months. Just like the legal heir you can take over the reins of our company .Since I am the guardian for Chandini and this property you will not have an issue here. When she nears her 21st birthday we can make a plan to cover the entire property in your name. For now am hiding Chandini from the media world .What say?"

Though it was hard for Pradeep to let go of his baby girl, he believed only this plan can work. If Buaji comes to know about his own character and his murder plan she might hamper his every dream of being the richest and most powerful so he nodded ok for her plan.

Vrinda ensured Chandini's safety by bringing her to Australia away from Pradeep and also made him believe she is working for him when in reality all she cared about was Chandini.

Just to ensure he still believes her, she came up with this marriage plan. But never in her dreams will this marriage happen. Vrinda will ensure Chandini is safe and the entire Dhore property will be handed over to Chandini by her 21st birthday and Pradeep will be punished for all his sins.
