Part 25 Not just words...
Khushi became nervous hearing a knock on her room door. She was sure it was not Anjali because the *knock* sounded low. Anjali would have called her name while knocking on the door if it was Anjali. So, it must be Shyam. That thought made her more nervous. She decided not to open the door.
Taking her mobile, she dialed Anjali's number. But there was no response. Anjali should have been sleeping. Or, Shyam might have put her mobile on silent mode. But, she got a call from Anjali's number immediately. She attended the call hurriedly.
"Di..."
"So, you have not slept yet..." Said Shyam.
Khushi clutched her breath hearing his voice on Anjali's phone. She closed her eyes in fear. Shyam not only put Anjali's mobile on silent mode but also kept it with him.
"Don't cut the call..." it was a warning.
Taking a deep breath, she decided to listen to him and also decided to record the call.
"Why don't you understand my love, Khushi? Do you know how badly I wanted to meet you? I came to India only for you" He talked slowly.
"Could you stop talking rubbish?" Khushi said angrily.
"Listen to me Khushi. I know you are angry with me for stopping your marriage. But trust me, I can't live without you. My love for you is so deep..."
"Shut up... Just shut up... Don't you have shame? At first, you loved my sister and got married to her..."
Cutting her,
"Yes, I did... It was just an infatuation... I understood that only after I realize my love for you"
"Don't name it love..."
"Let it be anything... I want you..."
"It will never happen"
"Do you think you can go to Delhi and could live alone?" it was absolutely a mockery.
"You can't stop me," she said with stability.
"I won't... In fact, I too want the same" he chuckled.
Khushi frowned.
"I will come to Delhi... without your sister's knowledge and disturbances... only you and me. It will be easy to tackle your sister if you go to Delhi than being in Mumbai"
"I will tell Di about your dirty mind"
"Are you going to spoil your sister's life?"
Khushi was silent.
"She is happy... She will be...but, it's in your hands. Are you going to break your sister's family?"
"It's not me but you who is breaking my sister from the core. My sister knows me. She will not believe you..."
"Really? Shall I show you a sample tomorrow morning? It won't be hard for me to turn the table against you. I can make your sister think, you are the one who eyed on me. Do you think I can't do that?"
Khushi gulped hard.
"you have no choice other than listening to me... Or else..."
"Or else?" She gritted her teeth.
"Your sister will be left alone..."
"Being alone is much better than being with a womanizer like you"
"Womanizer? No Khushi... My only need is you. Only you. You have no idea how badly you affected me. Let me touch you once. I won't disturb you again. I will get you married to whoever you want..."
