Dhruv and Tara reached the get together venue but they both spoke countable words with each other during their entire drive to the venue because of the passionate encounter they had in their bedroom.
Tara was still processing everything when Dhruv applied breaks as they reached the venue. Tara came out of her trance when Dhruv signalled her to open the door of their car. Dhruv held Tara's hand as they both walked towards the venue.
Dhruv sensed her uneasiness and stopped midway. She looked at him with questioning eyes but before she could speak anything Dhruv cupped her face and said - Tara Mein hun na tumhaare saath. Tumhe pareshaan hone ki koi jarurat nahi hai. Hum dono jyada der tak nahi rukenge. Jaldi wapas ghar chalenge.
Tara nodded in confirmation.
As they entered the open ground decorated with shiny lights, music playing in background & people chit chatting with each other - Tara felt astonished but in a pleasant way.
She came out of her astonishment when some of Dhruv's batchmates came towards them to meet and greet them.
Dhruv introduced his newly wedded wife Tara to his batchmates. He proudly told his friends how Tara is an Ayurvedic doctor himself while still holding her hand. Tara shyly smiled when his friends complimented his wife and addressed her as their bhabhi. She started to feel good and at ease in an ambience which was new to her but her comfort was short lived because what happened next baffled Tara.
Few of Dhruv's female batchmates hugged him as they came to meet both of them. One of his female batch mate while patting Dhruv's arm told Tara how she liked Dhruv during college but never got his attention. It wasn't the first time when Tara was witnessing "Aalingan" between man and woman in 21st century. She knew it was "normal" here to hug people while meeting irrespective of their gender but the wife in her certainly didn't like the idea of seeing her husband getting hugged from other women & someone else talking about her likelihood for her husband. She felt jealous, very very jealous but she had no other choice except bearing the hugs coming her husband's way & the stories of likelihood for her husband coming her way.
After a small meet and greet, Dhruv looked at Tara only to find her sipping "Sheetal pey" via sud sud yantra on a chair. He went towards her to check on her. He pulled a chair to sit next to her and as he sat down he realized she wasn't okay.
Tara....kya hua ?
Kuch nahi....
Kuch toh hua hai. Batao kya baat hai ? Asked a concerned Dhruv....
Humne kaha na Dr. Dhruv kuch nahi hua hai. Aap jaaiye aur jaake Gale lagiye apni sahpathiyon ke..
She dozed off after finishing herself and it took no time for Dhruv to understand what went wrong.
He followed his wife as she stomped off her feet in jealousy. He pulled her behind a huge pillar, away from the eyes of crowd & pinned her against it.
She tried to walk away but he caged her in between his hand on either of the sides.
The proximity between them was making her heart race & she was breathing profusely but she tried her best to compose herself and not give in to him this time.
Toh tumhe jalan ho rahi hai ? Asked Dhruv
Nahi. Humein kyun jalan hogi hogi ? Replied tara
Jalan toh tumhe ho rahi hai. Ab chahe tum mano ya na maano......... - Dhruv
Humein koi jalan nahi ho rahi hai....... - Tara
As he made her face him he saw her eyes welling up. She was hurt & he hated seeing her hurt.
Koi aur aapko aalingan mein bhare ye hum nahi dekh paaye. Koi aur ye kahe ki wo aapko pasand karti thi ye hum nahi sehen kar sake. Hum jaante hai ki ye sab 21vi sadi mein samanya hai lekin........before she could complete she was cut off with Dhruv crashing his lips onto hers.
Her hand automatically went up to his elbows and were trying to pushing him away, but Dhruv held on to them and pinned them above her head. He bit on to her bottom lip before breaking the kiss as he felt both of them going breathless.
Tumhe abhi bhi jalan ho rahi hai ? Kya tum abhi mujhse krodhit ho Rajkumari ?
Tara gulped and shook her head.
Before she could respond in any way, Dhruv captured her lips in a wild and demanding kiss,Tara resisted for a moment but finally gave in due to the intensity of the kiss and the heat originating in her body starting from the end of her spine and reaching her head.
They kept kissing until both of them felt the need to breath,and seperated to inhale some oxygen,but before tara could again say anything dhruv captured her lips once again,his hands moving on her back,her hands ruffling his hairs and pulling him closer.
They broke apart when they heard footsteps approaching them. Tara composed and fixed herself while Dhruv kept smiling to himself. They both held hands and walked back towards the party but not before Dhruv whispering in her - hamari baat yahan samapt nahi hui hai Tara. Baaki ki baat hum hamare kaksh mein karenge. A shade of crimson red flashed on her cheeks as her husband uttered these words in her ear.
She knew he wasn't going to back off now and she didn't even wanted him too.
