Loving in Tranquility - Abhinav X Arohi

The car stopped at a trail that led to the top of the mountain…

Abhinav parked the car and just as Arohi opened her door Ru went on held Abhinav’s hand…

Arohi saw it..

It felt like Ru was getting attached to Abhinav more and more with every day….

But did Arohi fear Ru would love Abhinav more and her less, she secretly prayed her kid would ..

Who else in the world but him would deserve it…

They smiled at each other and looking them smile, a smile spontaneously crept on her face..

Chaliye…. Abhinav said lifting Ru up in ne sway as they trailed…..

Arohi was never a mountain girl, him being born and brought up there threaded the mountain as if it was a perfectly laid road….

While arohi fumbled her steps hera and there…making Ru giggle…

Arrohi!!!!

Abhinav slowly called…..

Arohi wiping the dust of her saree slowing looked at him…

His eyes….

As he extended his hands ….

Haath pakad lo..kabhi fisaloge nahi.. Abhinav said….

Arohi bit her tongue….

Her words choking on something….trying to get her words out…

Agar kisi pathat se main takrayi toh…..

Abhinav smiled in silence…..

And pecked a hiss on Ru’s Cheek…

Main hu na Arohi sambalunga….tum sirf yeh haath tamo…

Abhinav said still extending a hand..

Arohi smiled a little more and gently kept her palm on his. He intertwined his fingers with hers and gripped it tighter ….A tear jumped down Arohi’s eyes and directly fell on the ground…..as the looked forward for the trail hand – in – hand.

Dekho Arrohi…yeh raasta toh muskhil hai..par aakhir main jo..nazara haina…ohoohhhhooo….matlab… Abhinav smiled imaging the scene and nature…..

Somewhere Arohi knew her life was also the same at this point…

Rough

Muddy

Huge blocks

An unequal road….

Then she saw him holding her hands tight enough…

Tight enough to hold her , to support the climb the mountain in front of her….

As Abhinav cajoled Ru still holding Arohi’s hand Arohi wiped her silent worries from her face that slowly welled up in her eyes…

Back at Neelama’s home….

Neelamma was cursing under her breath as she cooked……

Mukaan and Krish saw her so tensed…

Ammma… Muskaan gently called out……

Iss baar mere dono baachon ko dard diya diya na dekhne yeh maa kya karengi..

Uss bhar chup rehengi par ab nahi…..

Muskaan smiled at her anger, she very well know one thin that her amma could do well was anger….

Ammmaaaa…
