KIAAN POV
In Udaipur
I was sitting in a board meeting room with a bunch of idiots who didn't know anything about the business world..
As the meeting came to an end the client asked me if I was ready for collaboration so I replied “Yesi vahiyad deal mai nahi Kartha tum log yahase ja sakthe ho apni ye so called B*LLSH*T si deal leke” I said it in my cold tone , hearing me say these things
[ What kind of a bullshit deal is this you can go i don't want to deal with your bullwhip deal]
“Ap humse yese Baath nahi kar sakthe Mr. Khurana hum yaha deal ke liye aye Hai,na ke apni bezati karvane” he shouted at me
[ you can't talk like that with us Mr. Khurana, we have came here for the deal not to get insulted]
I raised my eyebrow and said “ apni ye Awaaz mere samne baadna mat aur bezati unki hoti Hai jinki izzat hothi hai” with my harsh tone
[ Don't you dare to raise your voice infront of me and by the way insulted are those whose respect is there ]
After saying this I got up and left the room without waiting for his reply....
Inside my cabin I saw an uninvited guest sitting on my sofa like he owned the place…..
“Rudra tumhe tamez nahi Hai permission ke Bina mere cabin Mei kaise aye” i said in my angry tone
[ Rudra don't you have manners without my permission why did you enter my cabin]
He saw me and grinned on his coffee and said “Aaj tere mood Karab Hai ….kis ke shamat ayei hai”he said it in a teasing tone
[Your mood is bad , whose funeral is going to happen]
I just glared at him and he raised his arms up showing his defeat.
Well that's what people do in front of me bowing their heads down on their knees.
I sat on my chair comfortably and picked the file that I had to sign.
“Why are you here don't you have any work” I said without looking up
“Maina aaj tere Ghar khana khane anewala hu tho……… Maine socha ki petrol waste kyu kare??
tere saath hi chalajau…”He said it with a wide smile on his face
[ i am coming to your house for dinner so I thought why to waste petrol? I will go with you]
“Kyu??” I asked while raising my head to look at his stu*p face
[ why]
“Meera Maa ne mujhe Bulaya hai…
Uhone na meri favourite butter paneer masala banaya hai……iss liye..”
[ meera Maa has called me, she told she has made my favorite butter paneer masala]
“Hmm” I said while again going back to my work.
He sat on the sofa scrolling his phone….
“Wo ship Nikli ki nahi yaha se” I asked him
[ Did that ship go or no]
“Abhi tak nahi Mr. kuku sign kar raha Hai” he made a face.
[Still Mr.KuKu has not yet signed]
“Rudra ….Mr. kuku seriously”.
“Arre wo chicken ke bache jaise Diktha hai tho usse kuku na bulav tho kya bolau mai” he tried justifying himself
[ he looks like a chickens child so if I won't call him kuku then what should I call him]
I just shook my head and told him
“Kuch bhi kar Mr.kumar se wo paper par sign karva nahi tho usse apni sabse pyaari cheez khoni padegi…… usse warn kar”
[ Do anything but make sure Mr. Kumar signs the paper if not he has to lose something most valuable from his life warn him]
“Ha…. Mai vo karva dunga aur kal raat tujhe vo papers dedunga”.
[ that i will do and bring those papers tomorrow night]
“Hmm…”
After Sometime
After completing my work I got up to go home. That's when I saw Rudra sleeping on the sofa with his month wide open. He looked like he was gonna fall.
I took my phone out and clicked his pics.Made my way out of the room with a loud bang on the door. I heard his high pitch voice coming from the closed door
I made my way towards the elevator when he also came behind me with his accusing eyes which I royally ignored….
I went towards my car and he came and sat on the passenger seat….
In 20 minutes we reached my house and all the way he was giving me side eye ...but I just ignore him
As we entered we saw my whole family having a debate competition .....well they are just talking
As soon as my mother looked at us he dramatically went and hugged her and started to tell how I pushed him from the sofa….
I just glared at him.
he corrected his words Immediately…..making everyone laugh in room
My mother looked at me and said to freshen up and come for dinner… I made my way towards my room…..
I came downstairs to see all of them sitting on their chairs silently looking at the and the atmosphere of the dining hall had some kind of tension and I could feel that…..
I went and sat on my chair then only they realized I was present there. Their eyes had panic in them but their face was calm…
My mother started serving while giving me a glance thinking I wouldn't notice…..
Not just her but everyone present here even Rudra.
The whole dining room was silent with only cutlery sound and thick air ….
After few seconds finally my father spoke “Beta tujhe Pata hai na ki tu raja hai Udaipur ka”
[ son you remember you are the king of udaipur]
I didn't say anything, I just continued to eat.
He continued “ Iss rajya ko sirf raja ki hi nahi balki ek rani ki bhi zarut hai”
[ this kingdom doesnt just need a king but also a queen]
I paused for a while and looked up directly in his eyes.Allowing him to continue
“ tho aaj teri dadi ka call ayatha Mumbai se, bol Rahi thi ke tere Dada ji hospital Mai hai~~ aur ye bhi bol rahi thi ki wo critical condition mai hai....tho unki ek akhri iccha hai ki iss rajya ki rani se mile”he completed.
[ Today your grandmother called from Mumbai and said that your grandfather is in hospital, his in critical condition. His last wish is to see queen of this kingdom.]
Until he completed I didn't break eye contact, I knew he was lying.... but also I knew I had no loophole from this trap because when my grandmother asks something she will get it without even repeating it twice.
“Ap mujse kya kehena chathehai thik se boliye” I said it in my usual cold tone..
[ What do u want from me say it properly]
“ Teri dadi ne tere liye ek rishta dunda hai” I knew this even before he told….
[ your grandmother has seen a girl for you]
“tho” I asked just to see what he would give me to convince…[so]
“Tere Dada se puch wo tujhe sab kuch bolege"he said it with a smirk on his face….
[ ask your grandfather he elaborate everything]
Everyone in the room knew I was not ready for the commitment but they also knew my deep relation with my grandfather..
I knew my father was lying about his health condition because I have kept some spy bodyguard to watvh over them–
......but I also knew my grandfather would do anything to make me agree to this marriage……
If I am right then my grandmother is the one who wants me get married and she will brainwash my grandfather……..
Well,to be honest, he doesn't need any brainwashing because he loves his wife way tooooo much..
Not just him but every Male species in our family are obsessed with their wife's , to the extent they can do anything for them………
That's what we all siblings have also been taught to LOVE YOUR WIFE CRAZILY………
“ We have to go to Mumbai this Saturday and on Sunday we will go to the girl's house for the proposal,” he said.
All this time everyone were looking at us without speaking a word.
I looked at everyone and saw some kind of hope in their eyes as if.....they wanted me to accept.
I got up from my chair to leave when my mother said “ Maine tere study room mai uss ki ek photo rakvaya hai……ek bar dekh le”
[ i have kept her photo in your study room once you see]
I didn't look at her and made my way upstairs not to the study room but to my room.
I took my laptop and sat on the sofa that was present in the balcony of my room and started doing my work..
After and hour or so I heard a knock on my room door.
I made my way to open it…
My father was present with an envelope in his hand.
He just shove the envelope towards me and said “say the answer by tomorrow if not.... I will take the answer as yes" I just raised my eyebrows at him
“Ye tumhare dadaji ne kaha hai” saying this he turned his heel and left without waiting for my response he left…
[ this your grandfather has said]
I closed the door with frustration bulding inside me and made my way inside my room with the envelope in my hand and threw it on the bed…
I made my way towards the balcony to complete my work…..
After completing my work I came inside my room to sleep …..
That's when I saw the envelope on my bed and remembered about my fathers words.
I just took it and was going to place it inside the nightstand but I knew better than that …….
I opened it and saw a photo or should I say mesmerizing photo of a girl ..
In this she was wearing a red suit with messing bun and gajra on her hairs…
She had big doe brown eyes I caught my eyes without even me knowing ….
I was starring at her face for whole of 15 minutes without even realizing it…
There was her bio data.. I knew my grandfather would this ..... if not he would have not sent me the girls proposal…..
I went thru the bio data….. and one thing I knew at the end of reading her biodata that “She is Mine”
A dark dangerous smile crept on my face and again I whispered to myself “She is Mine Now,”the promise was heavy in the air…
“And I will make sure she learns what love feels like…..even if it breaks her first.”
