💘Mysteries……..💘
Author’s POV:-
Riddhima looked at her son sleeping on her shoulders, a small smile crept on her lips as his face reminded her of the person whom may be she is still loving. Closing her eyes she remembered the day after their first night.
Flashback starts:-
5 years ago:
Riddhima opened her eyes as she felt sunrays on her eyelids, slowly opening them she turned and saw Vansh sleeping beside her. His one hand under her head and other tightly holding her by her waist.
Riddhima: Cute, you look super cute without beard and hot when you have them. You shouldn’t have removed them on our marriage. But its ok you still look too irresistible. I love you.
She said and moved forward to his face placing her hand on his arms gave him a small peck but before she could move back he grabbed her by her waist and flipping her around came over her.
She was shocked by his sudden reaction but as he opened his eyes and looked into her eyes a chill ran down her spine, she was scared whether he heard her or not. When she felt his lips moving over her, and his hands on her waist caressing there. She closed her eyes and he took her lower lips in a kiss slowly nibbling and sucking them. She responded him by taking his upper lips. He moved his hands from her waist freely sending her chills while she encircled her arms around his neck.
A knock on the door disturbed them. She opened her eyes and saw him as he gladly ignored it. She pushed him but he held her more tightly, but then she pushed him so hard that he somehow left her.
Riddhima: Idiot.
He heard her and was again about to kiss her when she kept her hand between them.
Riddhima: If you don’t get up from me right now. Then it would be very bad…
She said in a warning tone but he just gave her a smirk and didn’t get up. She again heard the knock and pushed him. He got down.
Moving to the door she opened it and saw Sejal. As soon as Sejal saw her in the same bridal attire she gave her a questioning look with a smirk. Riddhima closed the door behind her as she saw Vansh sleeping again. She came out and looked at her.
Riddhima: What are you doing over here at this time?
She asked her as she gave her an angry glare. Sejal ignored it.
Sejal: I’m not interested in coming to you. Everyone is waiting for you both. See the time and then say. Mom, bhabhi and bhai have to leave even as Arjun is going to stay here only for few days as he can’t stay without you all. While we have to complete our studies even, so we will leave to Paris.
She told her and saw her calm face. Might be she wasn’t successful in hurting her last night as she wasn’t used to it. Sejal saw her giving no reaction so she was about to move down.
Riddhima: Won’t you meet your friend for last time?
She said but Sejal ignored her and went down. Riddhima looked at her retreating figure.
Riddhima: I don’t know why but I don’t believe whatever you told me last night was true?
She wiped her tears which came out unknown to her. Entering the room, she closed the door and was about to turn around when Vansh back hugged her suddenly. Craning her neck she looked at him smiling.
——————————
Sejal was moving back to her room when she felt someone held her hand and pulled her in a room pinning her to the wall. She looked and saw Kabir with red shot and teary eyes.
Kabir: Whatever I heard last night you telling to Riddhima. Was it true?
He asked her trying to get a no from her but felt hurt when she pushed him.
Sejal: I don’t know.
She told him and left the room with a blank face closing the door. He took a vase and threw at the door breaking it into pieces.
——————————
Riddhima looked as all were leaving just when Sejal pulled her in a corner.
Riddhima heard her carefully and with teary eyes looked at Vansh who was playing with Arjun. She looked at Sejal back.
Sejal: Remember time is less and work is more. All the best.
She hugged her but Riddhima didn’t hugged her back as she was still thinking of her words. She saw them leaving wiping her tears she came back to them with a small smile. Veer came to her and hugged her tightly.
Veer: Will miss you Riddhu?
She hugged him back. Who knew it was their last hug, last moment.
Flashback ends-:
Tears left her eyes, she looked at Arjun and gave him a forehead kiss ruffling her hand through his hair.
Arjun: Don’t Mumma, it took me 2 hours to set them.
He told her in a sleepy tone and she chuckled ruffling them more. He got up and frowning looked at her.
Arjun: Mumma why you did that?
He said and then his eyes fell on the clouds in front of the window.
Arjun: Mumma come this side….Please…
He said and she followed his gaze.
Riddhima: No I won’t.
She said teasing him and he looked at her confused.
Riddhima: But I’ll agree if you promise me something.
She told him and he turned back and looked at Kabir, who was listening to the talk.
Arjun: What?
Arjun said and she looked at Kabir.
Kabir: Arjun, we will give you whatever you want just you need to help us by doing what we are telling you. Ok?
He nodded looking at him.
Kabir: So you know we are going to India. So there is one Chachi of yours whom you have to irritate just like the way you used to irritate your teachers when they punish you.
Riddhima pressed her lips to control her laugh. Kabir looked at him raising his eyebrows.
Arjun: Ok done, now move aside Mumma.
He said and she changed her place. Arjun excited looked out of the window.
—————————————————————-
As soon as they reached in front of VR Mansion, they were keeping an eye on it by standing far away from the place. They saw Aryan’s car entering in the mansion.
Kabir: Angre told that after 5 days its Ishani and Aryan’s marriage. Then why the hell is he working. In my whole life until I was with him I never saw him working.
Kabir said coming down and keeping the binoculars aside, he looked at Riddhima who was messaging someone.
Riddhima: Anger even told me that Aryan is completely changed now he isn’t like we met him last. He tries to ignore everyone by turning to a strict person.
She told him and then remembering of something burst into laughter.
Kabir: Why are you laughing?
He asked her confused and looked at Arjun who was looking at his IPad with Bluetooth.
Riddhima: Angre told me that Aryan had fired many of his secretaries now the question is the person who never used to miss a chance of flirting with anyone is not even looking at them. How is he working in the office?
Riddhima told him and looked at him as he was looking outside ignoring her.
Kabir: Angre, you called him here?
She nodded and they saw him entering in the car. Angre looked at them and then at Arjun. He suddenly hugged him shocking him.
Arjun: How is our champ?
He asked on which he frowned at him and then looked at Riddhima and Kabir.
Riddhima: He is your Angre chachu.
Riddhima told him and he again gave them a confused look.
Arjun: How many chachu do I have?
He asked and Angre look at him and then at Kabir.
Kabir: One more.
Arjun nodded and looked at Angre and gave him a hi-fi.
Arjun: Hi Chachu….where is my Chachi?
He said raising his eyebrows and Angre looked at Kabir and Riddhima who were giving him a questioning look.
Angre: She is in the Mansion. Will you come?
He nodded and Angre looked at Riddhima.
Angre: Riddhima, these are the papers and I guess you all will be coming tomorrow.
Riddhima nodded and took the papers from him and smiled.
Riddhima: And Vansh will be coming day after tomorrow? Am I right or am I right?
Both chuckled at her and Angre Nodded.
Angre: Till tomorrow you all will be staying in our farm house, it’s his order.
——————————————
Next Day:-
Riddhima came out of the car with Arjun and looked at VR Mansion. She moved in and saw everyone having breakfast.
Riddhima: So My ex-family is having their breakfast. Let me even join you guys.
She said shocking everyone as none expected her to come suddenly.Â
Aryan: What the hell are you doing over here?
Aryan shouted and Ishani held his hand. Riddhima moved to them and sat on one of the chair flipping the plate she looked back.
Riddhima: Come Arjun. Come Kabir. It’s our Mansion, everything belongs to us.
She said and looked at Aryan and Sejal.
Sejal: May we know by which right you are referring this mansion as yours?
Riddhima looked at Sejal and took a bite of the sandwich.
Riddhima: Obviously Sejal. Wait.
She said and a lawyer came there with a file. Sejal snatched it from him and Aryan snatched from her.
Sejal: Aryan, even I was also checking.
She said but Aryan ignored her.
Aryan: What the…? Angre you were looking into this, how come she owns this Mansion now?
He shouted looking at Riddhima.
Riddhima: Aryan now that’s not the tone.
Riddhima said and Aryan didn’t answered her back.
Angre: Vansh had transferred all his property to bhabhi, I mean Riddhima 5 years back.
Angre told and Sejal gave Riddhima a questioning look.
Sejal: Then where were you for last 5 years, and why are you claiming this property as yours after 5 years?
Riddhima smirked and getting up stood in front of her.
Riddhima: My Mood, My Property, whenever I wish I’ll claim it as I thought why not to let you all enjoy till I get my mood and now I got my mood.
She said with a smirk and Sejal turned her face and left from there.
Riddhima: So any queries?
As they didn’t said anything, she sat on the chair. Aryan left from there followed by Ishani, who was about to move but saw Arjun there. She came to him and bent to his level.
Ishani: Hi Arjun.
She said with a heavy voice.
Arjun: Hi…but who are you and why all left? And Mom, why was she shouting?
He asked looking at her.
Ishani: Oh you don’t know us, wait I’m your Chachi and he was your Chote chachu. And your mom wasn’t shouting she was just scolding us.
She said with a smile and he wiped her tears.
Arjun: But Mom was calling Aryan and I’ll also call him.
He said with a small smile, she kissed him on his cheeks and nodded and left from there to Aryan. Arjun came to Riddhima and saw her eating.
Arjun: Mom, we had our breakfast just half an hour before why are you eating it again.
She looked at him and kept back the sandwich and gave him a smile.
Riddhima: Leave that, so you liked this place? We will be staying here from now.
She smiled looking at him as he looked around the Mansion.
———————————-
Aryan threw a vase on the floor and sat on the bed keeping his hand on his head. Ishani entered the room and saw him like that.
Ishani: Aryan, what is this behavior?
She asked looking at him and bending on her knees removed his hands from his head.
Aryan: Ishani, why is she here?
Ishani looked at him and then kissed on his hands as he continued
Aryan: You know 5 years back when I, you and Siya came back from Paris. Bhabhi, Kabir and Arjun weren’t here they had already left. We heard about Veer bhai, Mom, dad, Ruchi di and Maa…We don’t know how they died, when. Even we don’t know why bhai is in jail. What the hell Ishani we don’t know anything that happened in those 5 months and none of them is telling us. Even we have the right.
Aryan said as he was crying and Ishani hugged him.
Ishani: Aryan… I know. But even think there must be a reason, why they didn’t told us anything.
Aryan broke the hug and looked at her.
Ishani: Aryan, now stop your this behavior. We’re getting married after 2 days and you are here crying like a bride. Stop it.
She said smacking on his arms. He didn’t looked at her.
After a while, Riddhima smiled at Kabir as she saw Aryan descending the stairs.
Riddhima: Kabir, I’m telling na, dress code should be black for Sangeet, why you have kept as white and yellow for haldi, why? Arey we should try something different from everyone right? Umm….trey blue no…no…turquoise blue, that’s even my favorite color.
She said and Aryan looked at her shocked and was about to say something.
Riddhima: After all I own this Mansion.
She said with a smile and he ignored her and left from there. Arjun came to them and sat in front of Riddhima while eating a chocolate.
Arjun: Mumma…You know Sejal Chachi gave me this chocolate and as Siya Chachi was busy on some phone call. She introduced me to everyone through family photo but she didn’t told where rest are? I mean Veer uncle, Ruchi aunty, Uma aunty, Where are they?
Riddhima heard him as she remembered the day when she got this news.
Kabir: Sejal told you all this and gave you? Why?
She looked at him and then took Arjun in her lap.
Riddhima: Will tell you everything as you’ll grow up. Now you can go and get ready Sangeet function is going to begin. Many won’t come so my Arjun will have to make everyone laugh, right?
Arjun nodded and getting up left from there.
Kabir: Why Sejal did this now?
Kabir asked her confused. She looked at him.
Riddhima: First of all, we both have to get married the same day Vansh and Sejal will but how will we make her agree for this?
