Sharanya's Point of View

"Please be seated. I am calling her." One of the house maid said to me. She went upstairs to call her.

It had been 1 week since I came here with Vyom. Naturally Vyom told me to stay out of this matter because there was no hope, according to him. But my mind was telling me something else. As if she was hiding something, something that causing her pain. Yes pain, the emotion which I could not detect that day in her eyes was pain.

But, not the pain of betrayal of hatred. It was something else!

I was sitting at their drawing room. The maid who had welcomed us last day was not here. Today she was different one. Might be that's why she didn't say anything to me. The house was smaller compared to the Khanna Residence at Mussoorie, but as usual very much sophisticated. Each and every thing was at it's proper place. The walls were painted in light cream colour with sky blue ceiling.

I sat on the sofa waiting for her. My heart was pounding loudly out of anxiety. Today was Sunday again. I came here with public transport without telling anyone. I hoped I couldn't get caught. It was afternoon One o'clock. I had to get out from here fast otherwise I couldn't get any bus. I was anxious.

Please Shivani, come back, at least for Vyom!

"Who is she? At this time? Did she tell you her name?" I could hear her faint voice coming from staircase.

"No didi, she just told me to call you." The house maid said.

After a while she came to the drawing room still unaware of my presence.

"Sorry, I had to.." She stopped on her tract after seeing me. Her face was quite shocked for a moment.

"You go. I need to talk to her." Shivani told her. She nodded her head and left the room.

"What are you doing here again? I told you to go away, why did you come again?" She asked with her cold voice. But something was off in it. She was not angry with me just like she was with Vyom last time.

Why?

"What do you need now?" She asked again with her same cold voice.

Why I feel like she is faking her coldness towards me!?

"Listen I have many work to do so just get out now!" She spoke up again. I saw  pain into her eyes again, which was hidden by anger, or might be fake anger.

Could it be the reason? Don't tell me she is..

"I am going. Bye and don't come again." She turned her head towards the exit.

"Shivani..I remembered everything." I spoke up lowly. She stopped on her track.

"Even Shiv's...d..death." I controlled by breathe. I was always extremely painful for me to mention his death again and again.

She turned her face towards me. Her eyes were widened in shock, tears were visible on those.

The whole room filled with silence for few moments.

"Long time so see, Shivani. Nice to meet you... again." I said with a sad smile. My eyes were also become wet.

"Will you take your favourite coffee?" Shivani said with her cracked voice.

"Sure, if you make it." We smiled at each other, tears were still into our eyes ready to fall anytime.

***********

"How is Uncle now?" I asked holding my coffee mug sitting on the backyard of their new house.

"After Bhai's death he got a heart attack again, severe one. We almost lost him that time. But thanks to God he has become stable. But right now he can't walk properly due to the weakness in his heart. Doctor said he needs to be tension free but..." She sighed.
