Weekend Getaway with Neha and Vikram - Part 5

                                    

                                          

Priya was walking towards the book cafe lost in her thoughts, she didn't even realize when she reached the cafe and ordered a latte for herself.
                          
Priyas pov -
Zindagi bhi kitni ajeeb hai. Kabhi Socha bhi nahi tha ki ye bhi ek situation aayegi. Ram kapoor se contract marriage - Ram kapoor didnt fit her criteria at all, he was overweight , over 40 and a wealthy businessman, nothing like Priya. Shaadi ke 10 din baad hi aise ladayi. Ma papa to khush hain atleast. Ek ye bhi zindagi ho sakti thi ki papa ki tabiyat thik hoti aur main US me hi hasi khushi zindagi jeeti. Shayad mere naseeb me pyaar kabhi likha hi nahi. Tabhi to itna Waqt US me rehne k baad dosti k alawa aur koi rishta bana hi nahi paayi. Kya pata aur kya kya hoga ab, lekin ek baat to samajh aa gayi ki ram kapoor se ye shaadi ka "the end" to hokar rahega. Kya kya soch rahi thi main subah ki bhagwan ka ishaara hai ye ki Ram ne mera haath mere birthday par thaama aur aise ki raat bhar mere hi haath me tha. Mujhe bhagwan ne finally ishaara de diya ki Priya tumhare liye bhi koi hai. Lekin ye ho kya gaya Mr. Kapoor ko, was he really that insecure about losing his friendship with vikram and neha? Aisa to kuch nahi kiya tha jo aise baras pade. Chod Priya, coffee pi phir uske baad wapas to jaana hi hoga, contract jo sign kiya hai. But iske baad minimal interaction with that khadoos kapoor. Ye vikram aur neha k saath ajeeb situation ho gayi ab. I don't think neha ko kuch pata tha contract k baare me, she looked shocked. But why should I care. He will handle his friends. 
                          
She looked at her fading away mehendi and his name on it. She touched her mangalsutra and took it off and slid it in her purse. She needed a break. 
                          
In the resort villa - 
                          
Vikram turning to Ram - ram ye kya tareeka tha usse baat karna ka. Arey tere liye nashta hi to laayi thi wo. Aise kya kar diya tha usne. Dekh Ram - ye contract wagare ki baatein baar baar dohrana, ye sab galat hai. 
                          
Neha - vikram, baby tum hamare liye coffee lekar aao na please. 
                          
Vikram - lekin ye aise bol kaise sakta hai usko. Contract to hai lekin bhagwan k saamne shaadi ki hai isne, duniya k nazar me wo ek shaadi hai na. Thik bol rahi thi wo ye sirf ek businessman hai. 
                          
Neha - vikram Jaao na please, I need to talk to Ram. 
                          
He leaves to make coffee in the kitchen. 
                          
Neha sits besides Ram - 
Ram, dekho main nahi jaanti ki tumne kya contract sign kiya hai ya uske terms and conditions kya hai aur main jaanna chahti bhi nahi. Mujhe sirf itna samajhna hai ki tumhare ye bartav ki wajah sirf itni hai ki usne tumhe raat me room tak jaane ka sahara diya? Ya phir ye ki tumhe apni god me sar rakh kar sulaya, tumhara haath pakad ke?  Before you say anything, she didn't say a word to me. Wo to raat me vikram mujhe settle karke tumhe settle karne aa raha tha tab usne dekha ki tum priya k saath ja rahe the room me. He didn't come to the room. Ab uska baar baar tumhare room me aana galat hai Ram. 
Wo ab priya ka bhi room hai and she needs privacy. Wo to subah vikram bahot pareshan ho raha tha to maine tumhare room me jhaank k dekh liya. You realize you were sleeping like a child in her lap? Your hands were entwined like they were meant to be. 
                          
Ram, US me Juhi tumhara past hai aur kuch nahi. Past bhi kyu, Juhi is nothing to you Ram. Tumhare papa jaane k baad tumne thoda Waqt hi maanga tha na usse, she moved on without thinking twice with another man. Wo sirf tumhare gifts me interested rehti thi ye tum bhi jaante ho. Bhul jao yaar use. Usi ke baare me soch soch kar tum udaas the na kal? She was your one sided love. Priya ko dekho, wo sahi Keh rahi hai, dosti karo usse. Usko Waqt do, why can't you see she is the one for you. Thoda zoom out kar ke dekho wo waise hi hai jaise ladki tumko chahiye thi. Usne bhi zindagi bahot independently akele ache se ji hai. Wo naya pan hai usme jo tumhare saath Share kar sakti hai. 
You can't deny you wanted to marry Ram. Ab jab wo ho gaya hai to kyu usko apne aap se dur kar rahe ho? Are you trying to create so much hatred for you in her that she leaves you? Kyu ram, uska exam kyu le rahe ho?
