Episode:4
Authoress PO ?
It starts with an agreement.
” Commitment is that Essential Itinerary in very Relation without which that relationship is Incomplete.”
I just wanted a Commitment from you for staying with me for Lifetime but you have already bounded us in an AGREEMENT…… For Lifetime….
Ansh gave Ahana a bunch of papers binding them in an agreement.
” You better remember Ahana Sehgal, Oh sorry it’s Ahana Raichand now, that it’s just a deal.
We are not bonded by any rituals, we are bounded by a piece of paper. We both had to marry for the sake of the company. ”
” I don’t forget things Ansh Raichand. It is clearly an agreement .
I ll take over 50 % of the shares of our company and you will take over mine. The resultant merger will have only few changes in the Board of Directors. ”
” I think the rules are quite clear and precise. In this marriage we are not answerable to each other. ”
” We must not interfere in each other’s life. No matter what the other person does. ”
” You and I, both will be the partners in both the companies equally.
And the merger will not bring any change in our positions or in other lifestyle. ”
” The marriage will be only for the sake of our companies, grandfathers and fathers. ”
” The marriage will not affect our level of independence. ”
” Done. ”
” Done. ”
” Signature Please. ”
AHANA’S POV?
I didn’t know what that meant. I was shocked would be an understatement.
As can I never thought that this was a contract marriage. I never agreed to a contract marriage although I thought that I was just forced for an arranged marriage.
But… This was just too much to take in. But the good part was that I acted like a strong person. I didn’t let him feel that I was surprised or astonished by this act of his.
I acted perfectly normal. It happens to be an oxymoron in this case.
I really wanted things to work out but this is gonna make it even more difficult now…
I never wanted a contract marriage. I didn’t even know before marrying that Ansh was going to bind us in an Agreement. I highly doubt why Dad didn’t mention this to me.
I don’t know why I was upset. After signing Ansh left not at all giving me a second look, he just left.
I didn’t know where he was going. Frankly, I didn’t care. I finally realised that I had married a Heartless Person. Nothing good can be expected now.
I didn’t show any astonishment. I just signed it. I never accepted this from him. I thought that maybe together we could make all this work but now that was a mere dream.
My life was all a living hell now. I don’t know if Ansh has any other affairs or maybe he went to make up for her for this marriage.
There were tears in my eyes. I never imagined something like this. No
matter how much I tried to control them they refused to stop.
I didn’t love him but still we were married. But by just signing up this paper everything is ruined.
I have made my mind. It’s fine now. I have to let go. This can’t affect me. I have a company to run. I need to concentrate on my work.
I needed sleep now. I had a flight to catch. I packed my laptop and pending work. The tears were still dripping.
***
We were on time at the airport. Ansh was always beside me but it’s as good as he didn’t exist.
Just before boarding my cell was ringing. It was Ma. I moved away from Ansh. I felt I would break. But I mustn’t coz Ma will feel bad.
” Ma…. ”
” Aha… How are you? How was yesterday night? ” She asked.
I was about to cry but I didn’t. I had to learn to be strong. I am independent and not at all weak.
A piece of paper can’t break me up.
” Good… MA. Got to go. Ansh is waiting. We have a flight to catch.
Give regards to Dad and grandpa. Miss you. ”
” Miss you too. Okay! Sweetie. Happy journey and enjoy. Have fun. Click pics too. Call me once you reach. ”
I hung up. Ansh was not waiting for me. I went in my own. He was just sitting beside me in the plane. It was uncomfortable to be near him but the buisness class seats were more than comfortable.
I didn’t sleep well last night, so as soon as the flight flew I drifted to sleep.
” Sleepy head. Wake up. You have been sleeping for so long. ”
I heard Ansh saying so. I got up and drank some water. It felt good now. There was still time till we land.
I opened my laptop. I had to work on a ppt which my PA, Jen had emailed me.
” Ahana.. Look here. ”
He clicked a pic as soon as I looked.
” What are you doing Ansh? ”
” We are on our honeymoon.
It must look like that. We have to show some pics to them. See this. ”
I agreed. Ma asked for some.
The next pic he showed was me sleeping. I felt embarrassed.
” Delete it Ansh. Now!! ”
” No…. I am not gonna do that. I have to show it to Ma. She said to click some. ”
” She called you? ” I was actually surprised.
Yes, she’s my Ma too. Actually she called when you were asleep. She asked me not to disturb you. You know… I can’t disobey her. ”
I nodded. Ansh is unpredictable. Sometimes he is sweet and sometimes so bitter. I had to adjust anyways.
The flight was on time. We landed in Zurich, Switzerland was a beauty. The snow clad mountains were visible when we reached our hotel.
It was a 7 star hotel. The honeymoon suite was decorated just as it should be, which didn’t mean a thing to me.
I don’t know how I am gonna spend 2 weeks alone here.
” Ahana you can rest or do wh@ťěver you like.
I have a meeting so I ll be late. Have dinner and sleep well. ”
I was in no mood to reply him. I was aware he was going somewhere leaving me to be deserted alone.
Good I had brought some work to do.
He freshened up before me. He wore a casual demins and a sweat shirt. He was going for a meeting in casuals. Who cares anyways?
He left. I too changed in jeans and t-shirt . I ordered a dark coffee to heal me in that cool atmosphere. The mountains were visible from our room. It was romantic without romance. Ha!! But I liked it a lot.
I loved to travel anyways.
I worked till 7 in the evening. Finishing the analysis and mailing it back. I was tired.
Why should I waste my holidays sitting here alone? So I decided to go out for a stroll.
The atmosphere was awesome. There were no news about Ansh. I let it go. He must be busy.
Just then my cell was ringing.
” You forgot to call Ahana. ”
” Oh! Ma… ” I thought it was Ansh. I sounded a bit disappointed.
” What happened Sweetie? Are you okay.? ”
” I am fine. I was walking around here. Ansh had some work. He’ll join me later.” I lied.
But I had to. I wasn’t left with an option. When I was about to enter a coffee shop I saw a similar figure. He turned. I found him to be somewhat similar.
And I was shocked. It was Ansh. He should have been in a meeting. Then I saw a girl with him. A blonde.
A pang of pain was felt in my heart. I was not supposed to be feel jealous after what happened last night but now I feel cheated.
” Aha… Are you there.? ” Ma was still on the phone.
” Yeah… If you want anything from here call me… Bye take care. ”
I thought of running and going back to the hotel but then I had to face it.
It was the reality. Ansh didn’t want our complicated relationship hinder his another relationships this hence he made us sign a pact.
” Ansh… ” I called him with a shaky voice.
” Oh!! Ahana. I thought you must be in the hotel. Meet Jazi. She is a old friend. She is Ahana, my wife. ”
Why did he introduce me to her as his wife?
Of course you ll think that I must be in my room where you left me alone.
” But Ansh you said you were going for a meeting. ”
” Yes.. I came to meet her. Anyways who goes to business meets wearing casuals.
Didn’t you realise that? What are you doing here? ”
” Oh! You are correct. I didn’t realise that. Actually nice to meet you Jazi. Ansh and I happen to be here on our honeymoon. So I was just enjoying it. As you can see…. ”
Saying so I left. I felt insulted and humiliated. Of course I should remember the agreement. Ansh has the right to do wh@ťěver he like.
Who am I to get affected? I went straight back to the hotel. I didn’t realise I was crying.
My heart was now used to it. I knew I ran away but there was no point in continuing that conversation further.
I didn’t have dinner. I wasn’t feeling like to eat something. I think I lost my appetite too.
I worked till 2 in the morning. Ansh was still not back. I wonder where he was at this hour in an unknown foreign city. Maybe it’s wasn’t foreign for him.
Just then I heard the door open. I heard faint steps.
” Ahana… You are not asleep? ”
” I usually sleep late. I had some business work. ” I said emphasising the word business.
He laughed.
” I heard you didn’t have dinner? Wanna have some more coffee?
Don’t you think it’s was a bit rude to run away from an ongoing conversation. ”
” No, thanks for the coffee. And I don’t like being part of a conversation in which I am not invited.
I am sleepy now. Good night. See you in the morning. ”
” Actually I have a business meeting at 9 so ll leave early. You can rest. We can have lunch together. ”
” Hmmm… Fine. We ll see. Anyways you don’t need to justify which meetings you are having. ”
Saying so I went to sleep. I wasn’t able. I checked around and Ansh wasn’t there.
I had a small nap. I checked the watch. It was 6 in the morning. I got up. I went in the small kitchen to prepare coffee. I was famished.
Then I saw Ansh. He was in the couch with his laptop on and he was snoring. I went near and took his laptop and put it on standby.
He was working at that hour. This guy is really insane.
He looked so calm while sleeping. I smiled and had my coffee sitting at the table.
” Oh! Someone is having coffee alone. Need some company. ”
” You are awake already.? I ll prepare it for you. ”
” Ahana. You need some sleep. Why are you awake till now? I am going to the clients.
This is very important for our company. I ll meet you later. You need a good amount of rest. After the ceremonies you hardly took some rest. ”
I nodded.
He went for a shower and dressed his Armani. He looked like a boss. Handsome…. Of course…
” It’s formal this time. ” He said laughing. I laughed too now. Although he didn’t justify what kind of friend Jazi was and I didn’t bother.
He left at around 7.
I was so tired that I fell asleep on the couch itself.
When I woke up it was 12 in the noon. I was so sleepy that I didn’t realise the time.
I brushed and had a long shower. It felt good. I got in a short white dress which Ma had specially packed for me. It was already 1:30.
I was waiting for Ansh. He said he would be back for lunch. I didn’t even where he went for the meeting.
Just then I got a message.
‘ I ll be late. You can have your lunch. ‘ It was Ansh. At least he had the courtesy to message me. I hadn’t accepted anything better.
Day one was surprising. Day two needn’t be nice at all.
I chucked it and pampered myself with the lavishing food of the hotel. I called my PA, Jen to email me the pending works.
I had to ki|| time.
I loved to travel. But I didn’t had the mood. I was already bored. I cannot wait for Ansh. He is just hopeless.
So I set out on my own for shopping. I had buy souvenirs for Dad, Ma and Grandpa. I thought of buying some for Ansh’s family too. Now they were mine too.
They really like me a lot. Both were always humble towards me.
I shopped for almost everyone. My friends, for the Dads, granddas and Ma. Even for Ansh’s friends.
I bought Swiss Chocolates and perfumes and some dresses. I enjoyed a lot all by myself.
I was a bit upset that Ansh didn’t call me or informed me leaving me alone in this foreign land.
I tried calling him but he was not reachable.
Where the hell did he vanish ?
A meeting that I wasn’t aware of was mysterious.
He was annoying me.
When I reached my hotel I got to know that they are having a having some special programmes for the couples.
I was walking through the corridor when someone called me.
” Hey, lady your key has fallen. ” A young lady was calling me. I went near and took the key from her.
She was with a guy. Maybe her husband.
” Thank you so much. ” I said.
” Actually the design on your hands is gorgeous. you just married? ”
” Yeah! And thank you again. ”
I said looking at ?my Mehendi.
It was still dark in colour. It is said that a woman’s Mehendi has such a dark colour only when her husband loves her so much. I new it was myth anyways coz mine didn’t gave a d@mn.
” We are on our baby moon. ” She continued.
” Why don’t you and your husband join us in the programme. ”
” We would love to but he had some work so he ll be late. We can catch up tomorrow for sure. ”
” Ya… Sure take care. ” She said and left, hand in hand with her husband.
I wish I could be happy like her.
I was gonna go to the banquet then dropped the idea and ordered for room service.
Even Ma was not disturbing me today. She must be thinking I was enjoying. Ha!! I was bored.
But then I watched Interstellar on Netflix.
I was awake till 3 in the morning but still Ansh didn’t return. We were just for 3 days now in Switzerland, Zurich and they felt like lifetime.
How could he be so irresponsible? He was now getting on my nerves already.
I tried calling but still it was of no use. He was pathetic. I felt abandoned and bored.
I engrossed myself in my pending work and projects.
I didn’t realise when I fell asleep doing the project on the desk itself.
Hope I have a better tomorrow…..
