Rantara Dark SS Yeh Kyun Kiya .......Sathiya .(updated Part 16 pg 57) - Page 29

PART 11

Raghu must be very happy with his victory...he has achieved what he wanted ...Antara thought and slowly turned her face to look at Raghu.

At the same moment, Raghu too turned his face and looked at her. Their eyes met and both stared at each other. Their eyes got locked.

Kaha tha na ??? chod de yeh shart ...terese yeh nahi hoga mereko pata tha !!!...Raghu muttered in a composed soft voice. His eyes were deep and magnetic but not threatening any more...surprisingly they were soft tender and warm.

Bohot Khush ho na tum ??? TUM jeet gaye !!! Aur ...main haar gayee... !!! Antara mumbled in a broken tired anguished voice.

Raghu didn't answer. He was silent. His calm magnetic eyes were intensely fixed on her. Antara took his silence as his answer. Why the hell she asked him such a foolish question??? It is obvious that he is enjoying her terrible defeat...her helplessness...Antara thought. She loved her little Chilly and her self-respect more than her life and being a girl she couldn't tolerate that humiliating act on her and failed to fulfil his terrible condition. Few minutes back what Raghu did to her was haunting her violently. Acute humiliation, embarracement, despair and an awful sense of defeat gnawed her soul into pieces. She turned her face away from him and covered her face with her trembling palms. How she was gonna show her face to the world ??? She was sobbing hiding her tears this time. She tried hard not to make any sound. Her whole body shuddered with her feeble whimpers.

Raghu was staring at her shuddering feature. What she asked him just few seconds back was not her question only ...the same question was preaking his soul the moment she gave up in his second condition and miserably accepted his marriage proposal.

Did he actually want this ??? YESSS !!! he wanted her to accept his marriage proposal and he was hell bent to make her do so at any cost. But did he really want this happen in this manner ??? Is he really happy??? Raghu thought. Normally he used to enjoy and cherish each and every moment of his mind games that he played often with his rivals and targets and the victory from every facet that came along with the games, enthralled him, revitalised him again and again, dipping his each cell into utter satisfaction, fun and the ecstasy of triumph. However, with Antara things were not happening as he expected to be. The terribly trapped intimidated tender innocent girl just shocked him hard when she chose his second option and declared him silently that she dared to bear him on bed for five hours but preferred to be free of him her whole life.

That realisation actually shook him to the core. The strong dejection and denial of Antara made his stone world go upside down and a visibly large crack formed there. He couldn't tolerate and believe it initially. He maintained his ruthless attitude towards her and continued with his second condition just to intimidate her beyond her tolerance so that she breaks down and accepts his proposal. For the first time in his life, he was not feeling any fun, satisfaction and the ecstacy of triumph in his own game.

He realized whatever he was doing with her ...after few seconds it was not calculated any more but an automatic strong sharp desire blazed in his system which was often making him loose his control on his actions...Yesss !!!! there was no doubt at that point he was desperate to feel this tender girl on his rock hard chest locking her in his strong arms. He started and continued to savour her mildly until she gave in and accepted his marriage proposal. Only he knew on earth how much self-control he induced on himself to control his dangerous wild desire to savour her more...explore her more and did not cross the limit too much. So many girls tried to seduce him in his life, be it in his profession or something else, but had he ever felt this sort of strong and mad desire to touch and savour any of them??? ...NO ...it never happened...and this simple girl ANtara from the very first moment of their meeting, changed his character...changed his thoughts. She had continuously tried to avoid and deny him till date... then why the hell he is so irrevocably captivated in her fatal attraction???

Her denials to her sobs ...her serene beautiful face to her lotus body aroma ...her acute nervousness to her soft and supple body... ..her long beautiful hair to her long lash eyelashes that surrounded her big brown innocent eyes ...her stubbornness to her way of slapping him...her sweet voice to her soothing body warmth ...her unconditional love for little Chilly to her strong revulsion for him ...everything ...her every bit ...everything related to her and around her attracts him madly and irresistably . Raghu thought.

The reminiscence of what he was doing with her few minutes back, came in front of his eyes again. her petrified trembling body within his deadly hold, her ice cold wrists that were locked in his hand, her tear stricken face, widened and reddened teary eyes, pale lips, her wasted attempt to cover her delicate beauty with her long hair, her heaving and shuddering soft breasts under his feathery touch and her continuous helpless wiggles and whimpers, all said him ...how extreamly she was intimidated ...how badly she was feeling exposed, trapped and humiliated by him only. Knowing every bit of her mental state, he continued his mild torture on her but deep in his heart; he knew he did not want to do this. He actually wanted to stop her crying. He didn't like her scared shattered defeated form. He badly wanted to hide her entirely from the rest of the world, sqeezing her hard within his chest, thump her back soothing her fear and pain, and ask her to stop crying.

Lying just beside her on the lash soft white bed, Raghu sighed and looked at her trembling palms that were covering her face and her badly bruised and cut wrists caught his eyes. Only few glass bangles were left uncrushed on her slender wrists.

WHAT THE HELL HAD HE DONE TO THIS GIRL JUST TO GET HER CONSENT FOR THE MARRIAGE...??? HOW could he have been so insensitively careless with her body ...her mind???? Raghu raised his hand to caress her bruises but restricted himself...she would definitly get more intimidated by his touch again on her body.

He realised, he wanted to see her happy smile again just the same way he had seen her the first time in a photo that was sent to him through a mail by some unknown client. The reminiscence of her smiling face made him realise one more odd thing that happened with him !!!!!...THE STRANGE WEIRD INTERESTING DEAL WAS COMPLETELY ABSENT IN HIS MIND FROM THE VERY BEGINING OF THE DAY... he found out Antara from her hideout ...took away her notebook forcefully from her and bullied her for a dayout for an entire day along with Chilly so that he could trap her and make her accept his marriage proposal by hook or crook. In his mind the deal and the amount of the lumpsome money was floating nowhere until the urge to see her smile reminded him about the bizarre anonymous client and his strange contract. Raghu further realised, that he was least bothered about the deal, may be from the very first moment he had seen Antara's innocent smiling picture, sent in his mobile.

He had drove to Nibholi in the midnight and was madly after Antara, only to possess this simple yet beautiful ...innocent yet stubborn...tender yet strong girl ...he had ever seen. He was NEVER after his TARGET. He was totally unaware about the fact that he had never lebeled Antara as his target even for a second but still treated and behaved with her as his target !!! It happened because he never knew how to behave with a girl to whom he was head over heels attracted. He learnt and knew only the harsh calculated steps to be walked on to sustain himself in this cruel world and get triumph over everything he had placed his eyes upon.

The moment he saw her, he got hopelessly bonded with her ...!!!! WAS that the fatal Attraction he felt inside him for her that wove the bond??? Or deep in his heart he felt severe untold danger for the poor innocent girl for whom someone mysterious gave him a deal of Big Five crores???? ...he couldn't figure out...but it was cristal clear that it was the first time in his profession, Raghu was NOT Sincere and Loyal with his deal and forgot about the lumpsome money involved in it.

He had forgot about MONEY !!! Money ...the most important thing in his life ...for which he could go to any extent and for which he could give up anything else in his life. After Bappa ...Money was what he had worshipped with his entire being. The terrible realisation made Raghu sit up on the bed abruptly like an unconcious person just got out from his deep sleeping state and came back to the reality wide awake...his breaths became heavier.

WHY is it so painful to see her in pain ????

Why the tears in her innocent eyes making him so restless???

WHY he just cant bear her denial for him even for a second???

WHY can not he accept her as his mere target like usual ???

And WHY does he want to possess this innocent soft tender girl with the bond of a marriage, as his own??? Is it really because the deal demands so or Raghu himself wants to marry this girl and make her his own forever???

When and how did Raghunath Naik became this reckless about his deals and profession and most importantly about the money involved in it and focused only on a girl named A-n-t-a-r-a...????

Raghu ran his fingers through his hair feeling lost and utter confused in stark darkness. The weird questions churned his mind badly but his mind couldn't find the answers. The feeble whimpers of Antara made him more restless. Bappa !!!! yeh Ladki apun ke sath kar kya rahi hai ???? meri zindegi...meri soch ...kyun badal raha hai ???

He looked again at crying ANtara and without wasting a second; he slid his hands beneath her torso softly and before she could react a bit, within two seconds he yanked her up and made her sit on bed ...his one arm wrapping her back firmly and his other hand softly removed her palms from her crying face.

Bewildered Antara couldn't guess what he was up to. Intensely nervous and panic sticken Antara tried to get rid of his hold weakly and whined ...TT...Tum ...kya ...kya chahiye tumhe ?? ...maine shadi ...hhh...ke liye haan bola na ??? Abh kya ??? ...mmm...mujhe ...hhh...hath mat lagao ...mm...mujhe Chilly chahiye...Rrr...Raghuuu...naai ...hhh...MUjhe hath mat lagao ...!!!!

SHUSHHH...Chup !!! ekdum Chup !!! Raghu wiped her cheeks with his thumb and tugged her messy tendrils behind her ear. Itna KYUN rorahi hai ??? rona bandh kar !!! Raghu's voice sputtered dominance but that typical calmness was missing...a deep restless beseeching voice roamed in her ears.

NAHI karti ...hhh...!!! Antara denied obstinately, again tried to break free herself from his grip, and cried more being a failure.

Please rona bandh kar Antara!!!...NAHI dekh sakta tujhe aise rote huye...Raghu's deep husky repenting earnest voice bemused her.

She raised her teary red innocent eyes to him and asked in a broken anguished tone ...Kyun??? tu..tum toh mujhe rulana hi chahte ho na ??? mujhe ...hh ...pareshan karke takleef aur dard meinn dekh ke ...tt...tumhe ...maza ata ..hhh...hai na ???? aur ...aaj ...hhh..aaaj jo kuch bhi tumne kiya...hhh...mere sath ...hhh...she couldn't finish ...deep sobs of pain and disgrace came out of her.

Kya kiya ...apun tere sath ...hmmm??? Raghu jerked her body slightly in his hold ...KUCH BHI NAHI ...SAMjhi ??? kuch bhi nahi kiya apun tere sath !!!...He sounded like he was convincing himself more than her.

Wo ...wo apun tereko sirf thodasa daraya ...thodasa dhamkaya ...aur...

Antara was staring at him...hearing him she squeezed her eyes shut. Huge tears rolled down her cheeks again.

Aur ... Tereko chuya!!!...his husky voice now flickered not a bit of shame or hesitance or repent as if he had every right on her to touch her to feel her like that.

But Raghu knew that his intimate touch made her this much upset and he didn't know what to say next, how to console her, calm her and make her forget each and everything painful and disgraceful that happened a while ago. He added further like a kid who was confessing his deed innocently to her with a hope not to be get punished ...Tereko Chuya hai !!! ...par Bas thodasa...!!!

Antara's sobs became intense hearing him. Her body trembled within his hold.

Raghu kept her within his grip and wiped her tears silently. Thodasa ???? Yeh ...hhh sab thodasa lagta hai tumhe Raghuu ...hhh ???? Kyun kiya...hhh ...tumne mere sath aisa...hh..??? Antara gripped his shirt on his shoulder in her weak fist and jerked him.

Kyunke Tune Mereko yeh karne diya ...A-n-t-a-r-a !!!...tu wo shart nahi chuni hoti toh apun KABHI aisa nahi karta !!! He articulated each word calmly but intensely. The strange truth in his deep voice shook her.

Tujhe yeh shadi Nahi karni thi aur mereko tujhe shadi k liye manana tha ...Har Haal pe...!!! Raghu's eyes caressed her face, which was flushed with excrutiating pain, embarracement and humiliation.

Mereko pata tha terese yeh sab nahi hoga ... yeh dusri shart tu pura nahi kar payegi ...Par ek number ki yedi hai na tu...Raghu chuckled slightly,... isliye kud padi bina soche !!! Chal chod ...!!! jo hua so hua ...!!! Abh Bhul ja iss baat ko aur rona bandh kar...rote rote teri aankhen sujh gayee hai ...!!!Raghu earnestly wiped her hot tears from her cheeks.

Like a ferocious tigress Antara jerked herself out from his grip and faced him violently ...NAHI BHUL SAKTI !!!...AAJ TUMNE JO ...HHH..KUCH BHI KIYA ...MAIN NAHI BHUL SAKTI ...CHAHUNGI TABHI NAHI BHUL SAKTI MAIN YEH ...!!! TUMNE MERI CHILLY KO USE KIYA HAAN ???

AUR ...HHH...AUR ...MARZI KE BINA KISI LADKI KO CHUNESE USS LADKI PAR KYA BEET TI HAI ...TUM JAISE INSAAN KABHI NAHI SAMAJHOGE !!! BADTAMEEZ !!! GUNDE !!! BESHARAM !!! NALAYAK !!! PATTHAAR KAHINKA !!! TUMHE SIRF AUR SIRF DARD DENA ATA HAI ...!!!

I ...HATE ... YOU !!!! Antara warped on the bed crying again bitterly in front of him.

Raghu raised his eyebrows and huffed a bit anxiously seeing her severe rage and anguish for him. It was true he touched her on her consent but he knew the best that it was never her wish...whatever she did, did it because only he knew on earth how terribly he trapped her.

He looked at her raged form and grabbed her elbows in his palms and shook her lightly ...Apun ne tereko dard diya hai na ??? ...thik hai ...Tu mereko do char aur thappad mar le ...ek kaam kar !!!...Raghu took out a small knife from his boot and handed it to her...Lay ..hh ...pakad isse aur chala mere jism par ...khoon nikal de ...apun ke wajese teri churiyan tuti aur kalai zakham hui na ??? hisab barabar kar le!!!

Antara frowned and looked down at her palm where he placed his sharp knife. She grabbed the sparkling deadly knife in her weak sore fist and then looked at him pantng hard. Her eyes burnt Raghu with rage and revulsion. Raghu kept on staring at her calmly not moving an inch from his place. She raised the knife holding it in her trembling bruised hand and then hatefully threw it away far from the bed. The knife fell on the ground making a metal blunt sound.

Antara raised her both bruised wrists in front of him and mumbled in a wrecked shattered voice ...yeh jo chot tumne diya hai na ...Raghu ...hhh...yeh to aaj nahi to kal bhad jayenge ...PAR Raghu...hh...she touched her chest ...tt...tumne mere ATMA ko jo chot pohchayee hai ...uska kya karoge...haanh ???

Something invisible sharp, straight entered Raghu's soul and pierced it hard. Raghu sat in front of her frozen and staggered. His bottomless black eyes stared at her face without any blink. His lips parted...he wanted to utter something...and the first time ever in his life... Raghunath Naik ...the terror of Mumbai city ...couldn't form any sentence as he didn't know how to give solace to this terribly hurt innocent girl. He didn't know when and how her pain had started giving him pain even more, making him sad.

A severe urge compelled him to grab her in his strong embrace and burry his head in her soft chest and ask her to forget everything that he had done wrong to her. He wanted her to forgive him for his misbehaviour and caress his hair lovingly with her lovely soft fingers. His heart was eching seeing her in pain and it eched more knowing he was the reason of her pain... and the irony was, he felt only she could give him solace ...only she could sooth his throbbing soul. He wanted her to embrace him with equal urge as he had in his heart right then.

He knew he needed to heal her first...but how he didn't have any clue. The damage he had done seemed very deep and incurable. He couldn't stare at those burning painstricken teary eyes anymore ...he shifted his gaze from her.

Suddenly a conversation with little Chilly came into his mind...:

He was sure, his severe urge to embrace her was definitly an outcome of Chilly's advice in his subconscious mind. He wondered what would happen if he tried Chilly's trick on her. Would the situation become worse or better???

Abhi jo haal hai Isse bura aur kya ho sakta hai ? Raghu huffed and ran his fingers through his hair. Dekhta hun Chilly ki trick mein kitna dum hai ...Raghu squinted his eyes and thought...par aise achanak jhappi marunga toh aur bhi ghabra jayegi ...waisehi iski dimag abhi pressure cooker ban chuka hai ...ek kaam karta hun puchke jhappi marta hun !!! han yehi thik rahega ...Bappa please iski dimag thanda kar dena aur yeh rona bandh kar de. Sach mein ...apun isse rulana nahi chaha Kabhi bhi !!!

Raghu prepared himself to hug her and realised, again it was the first time he was going to hug a girl in his life and that too to sooth her pain and say sorry to her. He was thinking that Antara was the only girl whom he touched so intimately and that too without a chink of hesitation in his mind then why the hell he was feeling so odd now to hug her??? Did he ever shown his tender side to anybody ??? NOOO...NEVER !!!...Did he ever knew that HE had a tender part also in his stony heart...which would cry seeing her cry ...which would eche seeing her in pain and which was ready to go upto any extent just to make her smile...!!!! ..Raghu was bowled over by the new realization. He deliberately kept aside all his weird thoughts and prepared himself to ask her whether he could hug her or not.

Raghu came out from his trail of thoughts and looked at her...she had moved away from him. She was covering her chest with her one hand poorly and trying to get down from the bed...she was sitting on the edge of the bed keeping her feet on the floor and trying hard to stand up wiping her tears with her other hand. He noticed she was having that typical problem again...her legs were not supporting her ! This was the third time in a single day she was facing this problem. First, when he found out her in her secret hideout and snatched her notebook away from her, second, when he kept her hands tied up above her head and made her standing for a long time as a punishment for denying to choose any one condition he had given her, and third when she was broken completely. Raghu understood why and when it happens to her.

What the hell she should be feeling right now ?...to what extent she was intimidated and feeling helpless ? he thought. If Raghu were in her place what he would have done in such a situation??? ...Raghu asked himself...do char chita jala chukka hota abh tak ...wo bhi tab jab apne pair par khada ho pata...his conscious mind answered him.

Raghu moved beside her and sat just beside her on the edge of the bed placing his boots on the floor just beside her feet. Antara startled but didn't look at him...hastily and nervously she covered her chest with both her hands. Her saree was on the floor few feet away from her. Raghu stood up and moved to the spot where her saree was lying ...he bent down picked up her saree and came back to her.

He sat beside her and gently gave her the saree making a ball of it. Antara grabbed her saree hurriedly and covered her chest wheezing lightly. She didn't look at him once. She sat numb staring at the floor holding the saree on her chest with her life... silent tears rolled down her cheeks. Raghu became wordless seeing her. Moments passed and Raghu again prepared himself to talk to her.

Wo ...terese kuch puchna tha ...Raghu finally said her. She remained motionless like a stone made statue.

Raghu bent a bit to see her face properly and asked like a repenting kid ..."...Kya main " he stopped and his jaw flexed. " kya main Tereko ek hug karsakta Hun ? Her eyes widened, body stiffened, she inhaled heavily parting her petal lips and then stopped breathing in fear hearing him. She couldn't answer, and he didn't wait for her to. He moved one arm gently around her bare waist, slid another beneath her knees, scooped her up, and made her sit on his lap within a second. Not giving her a second to react further, he gently wraped his iron arms around her stiffened cold body... burried his face on her cringed shoulder and pressed her on his chest. Next, he tightened his embrace around her n felt her soft nervous body being crushed on his hard chest and heard her fearful moan and whimper.

Nai Antara !!! Darneka nai !!! Zara bhi nai ------ Apun hai na ------- Tere Sath !!! Kuch nahi hua tujhe !!! ...Sab thik hai !!!...aur jo bhi thik nahi hai apun thik kar dega...!!! His husky honest earnest voice roamed in her ear. What is this guy saying ??? he is the only reason of all my misery and terrible state and he is asking me not to panick as he is there with Me !!! He has taken me in his iron embrace !!! Ohh God ...what is he up to ??? What is he made of ??? Antara cried to God. A long whimper escaped from her mouth.

Raghu started rubbing her back ...her hair and placed her tired head softly on his shoulder. He kept on cradling her, rocking her, shooing her, rubbing, and thumping her back and head gently ignoring her anguised whimper and feeble struggle to get free.

The world seemed to be ended beyond them...only the sea breeze came through the huge window without their permission and caressed Raghu and Antara both. Time just stopped for them in that lonely cottage.

*********************************************************************************

When Raghu took her in his lap and simply embraced her in his strong arms, at first Antara was feeling deceived and livid, but her body wasn't smart enough to know it. It had liked the feel of his hands, his rock hard chest, his manly body warmth, his strength and his irresistable masculine aroma, his deep husky voice roaming in her ears and the feel of his racing heart just adjacent to her...and to her surprise her body wanted more of him. It was almost like there were two of her, one who heartily approved his every act on her then and one who would have dearly loved to beat him into pulp and see him dead. Antara couldn't reason why her body completely surrendered to his embrace as it was her most secured place. She didn't know why her heart believed his each and every word that he said in her ears and to her surprise all her fear was leaving her with an increasing pace with every passing moment. The painful burning feel of humiliation and disgrace that he had made her face a while ago was still there in her heart but with every caress of him, the burning impact was becoming less. She didn't want this to happen at all...she faught with her own mind but against her will, her soul started to feel relaxed and better in his sudden ardent hug. Antara hated herself to hell when she realised that her soul was just not ready to hate him even after all his terrible wrong deeds with her.

Raghunath !!!...a weird dangerous guy who had always, from the very first day made her do things against her will either by applying his physical strength or by his dodgy tricks...the guy who had bullied her scared her to death ...why his touch on her body doesn't feel disrespectful to her ???...why her heart wants to believe his every word whispered to her ear??? She cursed herself for this but still couldn't resist the amazing feel of his physical intimacy that was penetrating into her soul drip by drip through each and every single fiber of her body.

********************************************************************************

Raghu had no idea how long he was on the bed hugging Antara so ardently and passionately taking her on his lap. He felt slowly Antara had stopped her weak struggle and surrendered herself completely in his engulf. Raghu was feeling ...good ...actually damn good...after a long time.

The sun strode along his way and was preparing to set in the gorgeous sea making the whole atmosphere cool, and flooded with its soft golden ray. Raghu felt Antara had stopped whimpering completely. Her body in his embrace was not stiffened and cold anymore. She was breathing normally and her body had stopped quivering. The warmth of her body felt so soothing to him and her tranquil softness enthralled Raghu's soul. She was clutching his shirt within her fists one on his shoulder and other on his back. Raghu let out a sigh of relief and snuggled more into her hair ...his lips brushed her bare skin on her shoulder. He put a little pressure and kept pressed his lips on her buttery skin closing his eyes. He felt she wheezed lightly but not panicked.

Raghu's phone bipped suddenly and broke the trance. Raghu raised his face from her shoulder holding her with his one hand firmly and moved his other hand from her reluctantly. He took out his mobile from his jeans and received the call seeing the caller on the screen with a frown on his forehead.

BOL !!!...he said in a serious tone. At the other end the manager of the resort nervously muttered: Raghu bhai...wo ...wo bachhi bohot rorahi hai ...bohot zid bhi kar rahi hai uske didike pas jane ke liye ...wo jo adoption keliye aye the uss aurat ko bachhi ne kat diya...

Yeh adoption wale bhi zid pe aade hain ki bachhi ko apne sath lekar hi jayenge aaj aur abhi!!! ...aapne kahatha apko disturb nahi karneka par yehan mamla bohot gadbad ho gaya isliye phone kiya.

Raghu could hear Chilly's angry screams over phone. He said : Hmm ...main abhi Araha hun...

He cut the call, kept his cell back in his jeans and wraped his arm on Antara again. He shook her lightly and called her softly ...Anta-r-a ...

Antara raised her head from his shoulder slowly and looked at him. Both stared at each other for few seconds bluntly then Antara tried to move. Tu thik hai ??? Raghu placed his palm on her knees lightly, then slid it down to her ankle and asked about her numb legs. Antara blinked her eyes twice and then casted her eyes down from his face.

Antara tried to think clearly. What if he starts his torturous game again with her??? He is so unpredictable and so dangerous ...he is so so difficult to understand. She had accepted her defeat to him and gave her consent for the weird marriage ...may be for this Raghu is behaving differently with her now, but for how long ???? She has developed a strange perception that Raghu would never do anything to her, without her consent, but to obtain her consent this weird dangerous guy can go to any extent crashing her tolerable limits...as he did just a while ago. What is she gonna do if he again starts something like that ??? She thought fearfully. She felt the dangerous proximity with him right then.

She hastily opened her fists, released his shirt from his shoulder and back, and tried to move away from his lap. She couldn't move her limbs well and felt she was still not completely fine. Her lips got parted as she started panting and raised her eyes to meet his. He was staring at her intently with a frown on his forehead. He did not miss the terror in her eyes but the reason behind it was not clear to him.

Raghu stood up taking her in his arms and then slowly and carefully put her down on the floor and made her stand. He held her waist and one arm carefully so that she wouldn't fall and said intently ...: dekh ghabraneka nahi ...samjhi na ?? ...apun bas dekh raha hai ke tu abhi khadi ho sakti hai ke nahi...zarabhi takleef hai to mereko bol...apun firse uthalega tereko ...

Naai ...hh...main ..main thik hun...her feeble bewildered voice was heard. Raghu gently made her sit on bed and said in an assured honest tone : tu wo ...tu saree pahen le ...Apun teri Chilly ko tere paas wapas lekar aata hun.

Antara looked up at him...her eyes gleamed in hope and releaf hearing him...then again saddened as she couldn't believe him. She hesitated a bit but then pleaded in a weak doubtful voice : please jaldi wapas ana ... Ayoge na ???

Raghu noded at her ...Hmmm...Ajaunga ...

When Raghu reached the other end of the resort, he found Little Chilly in a pathetic condition. A big fat woman was mercilessly gripping her little hand and was continuously scolding her to stop crying.

Raghu frowned hard at the manager and the manager noded to him. The manager said something to the couple and they looked towards Raghu with a mixed emotion of respect and gratitude. Raghu opened his arms for Chilly and gestured her to come to him. Chilly saw Raghu and jerked her hand out from the lady's grip and ran into his arms and complained to him ...: Ragu uuu... she sniffed and said in an anguished hurt tone...Chilly yehan kitna loyi ...meyi Anta didi kahan hai ??? didi ke pas jana hai ...

She showed Raghu her reddened little wrist and further complained ...: yeh aunti Chilly ko data !! ...Chilly ki haath aiche zolse pakla !!... .yeh aunti achhi nai hai ...shabki momma papa aye aw le gaye apne baby ko apne shath ...Ragu aw Anta didi Chilly ko lene naai aaye !!! Chilly gandi baby hai kya ??? Chilly toh didi ki shab kaha manti hai...shirf dudu nai piti !!! ishiliye Chilly ko lene nai aye ??? Bhooo she cried rubbing her nose on Raghu's jaw.

Raghu felt truely guilty and ashamed for using this little innocent soul in his gameplan. He hugged her and kissed her chubby cheeks lovingly and said :...Sorry !!! aaneme der ho gaya...merese galti ho gayee yaar !!! maaf kar de Chilly ...fir kabhi aisa nahi karunga !!! sachhi !!!

Chilly stopped crying and rounded her eyes : Sachhi ???

Raghu noded to her : Han Sacchi !!! Aur Chilly toh sabse pyari hai ...Chilly dudh nahi piti toh kya ???...arey Apun bhi dudh nahi pita ...Haan..!!! toh kya Apun gandha hai ??? aur tu dudh piye ya fir nahi piye teri Anta didi terese bohot pyar karti hai ...uske liye toh sari duniya ek taraf hai aur tu ek taraf.

The couple came towards Raghu and said : Raghu bhai ...apka upkaar kabhi nahi bhulenge ...apke wajesehi yeh bachhi hamare zindegi mein ayi. Abh aapka permission ho toh hum ise ghar lejana chahte hain.

Chilly rounded her little arms around Raghu's neck tightly hearing them and whispered in Raghu's ear :...Raguuu...naai jana inke shath !!! Chilly ko didi ke pash jana hai !!! Raghu pressed Chilly's little body on his chest assuring her safety and glared at the couple : Ek chotisi bachhi ki rona nahi bandh kar paye... toh mabap kya khak banoge ??? Raghu's voice was calm and threatening at the same time. The couple bent their heads, as they couldn't stare at those dangerously calm but flaming eyes. Raghu kissed again Chilly's cheek and smiled heartily: Chal Chilly teri Anta didi bohot derse teri intezaar kar rahi hai !!!

Raguu...didi ke pash jaldi le chalo naito didi lo degi !!! Chilly flashed her naughty dazzling smile to Raghu and gave a huge kiss on his cheek...Ummmaah !!

Haan ! yeh tune bilkul sahi kaha ..!!! Raghu chuckled. Chilly awarded him one more puppy, placed her little head on his strong secured shoulder, and yawned sleepily. The little soul was too much tired and exhausted after all this. Raghu was on the way towards his cottage when he felt that Antara's living doll had fallen asleep in his arm keeping complete trust on him that he would reach her safely to her Anta didi.

TO BE CONT ...
