Because I loved you: Chapter 4

I drove to Taj Bengal hotel and parked Sparky in the parking lot. Sparky was the name given by me to my BMW which I got on my 18th birthday and I fell in love with it the very first day. I and Rishi always faught over the topic that whose car was better my Sparky or his Audi.

When I reached near the entrance I saw Rishi was already standing there, waiting for me. He told me that Rakesh uncle was inside and then a guard escorted us to the room in front which there were lots of securities. Rakesh uncle was inside with Abhinav, the CM and some other men. When we were entering the room I was bit nervous and the first person on whom my eyes fell on was Abhinav Rathore, this 25 year old guy was like 6 feet tall and his physical appearance was almost perfect, as a whole he was a strikingly handsome man but that didn't affect me much as I wasn't that kinda girl who would fall for a guy just because of his good looks. He was talking on the phone then but ended his call after seeing us. Uncle introduced us to him. He warmly greeted us. Then both Mr.Ghosal and Rakesh uncle made us clear about the whole procedure of the work which seemed to be pretty easy though. They gave us some files which had all the informations regarding the campaign and told us to go through that then only. Uncle left with the CM after half an hour as he had a meeting to attend. After we completed reading that file Mr.Ghosal came to us and gave us a quite long lecture about the roles that a youth should play for his country's development. I was so bored that I almost yawned but Rishi listened to his whole speech with interest. I was looking around just to get rid of my boredom when Mr. Rathore walked into the room and told Mr. Ghosal that he personally wants to talk to us. I was really not interested to hear any more speeches so i was literally bit scared cause this time if its another boring speech then I'll definitely fall asleep. Mr. Ghosal left and only we three were there in the room. He dragged the chair in front of us as if we did a crime and he is going to interrogate us. So finally he started,"I think you know that I'm new to politics and I need to learn a lot now. I admit that I need the youth support but..."
"But what?", Rishi instantly asked.
"But I think you guys are still kids and won't be able to handle all those big stuffs. So I wanted you two to start with some basic works."
I was so mad at him how dare he called us kids. Have he ever thought that in front of all those politicians who are mainly oldies he is not even a kid but an infant. This guy is so full of attitude, how can he even think of becoming a PM in future.
"You guys can go now. See you tomorrow then." and he stood up and left the room. I drove back to my apartment and after having my dinner I called Rishi.
"Hey whats up? Why did you call"
-"I just wanted to talk to my best frenemy do I always need a reason for that?"
"But you never call without a reason", he chuckled.
-"Okay whatever, I wanted to talk about that Abhinav Rathore."
"Ooooh Abhinav Rathore huh? Okay now don't tell me that you fell in love with that guy on the first sight. Wow it would be really cool to have a jiju who will be a PM in future...great choice Ray", he chuckled again.
-"Shut up you monkey make your sister fall for that Mr.Attitude so that you can call him your jiju. I'm least interested."
"Okay Okay fine just chill I was just kidding."
"You know that I hate all these, I hate you." and I hung up.
Rishi called me back but I wasn't in a mood to listen all his pointless jokes. It was the next day and was officially the first day of my work I didn't talk to Rishi in college and I drove to the Hotel before him without even informing him once. I saw Mr.Rathore was going through some files and when he saw me he coldly asked me rather ordered me to bring a cup of coffee for him. This was unexpected, I don't mind bringing coffee for someone but I'd have liked it more if he'd have asked me for that bit politely. When I gave his coffee, he further ordered me with that same attitude to collect all the scrambled papers from the floor and throw them into the dustbin. Okay that was too much he was treating me as if I was his maid. No one ever made me do these kinda work nor treated me like this. I didn't say a word and did what I was instructed without uttering a single word. I regretted for coming over there before Rishi and leaving him the college. At that time I desperately wanted him to come soon for my rescue.

Because I loved you: Chapter 3

"You guys have to help him in these campaigning issues. You guys are young and can easily convince other people of your age group to come forward and help for the campaign and to support Mr.Rathore. He will be staying in Kolkata for some time and I want you two to be with him and help him. You know that I trust you two and I personally want to make sure that Mr.Rathore gets full support from all of us as I deeply believe that he is going to be a great leader in future". And uncle finally completed. After hearing this I didn't want to say a No straight on his face so I made a excuse of having exams and studies. Hearing this Rishi gave me a sarcastic smile and said " Since when did you care so much about studies? And 3 months are still left for the exam." I seriously wanted to punch his face hard but unfortunately the situation and the place was inappropriate. Uncle just looked at me and said "Don't worry so much it would take an hour or so everyday after your college gets over. And Rishi will help you with your studies, if you guys want I can also arrange for a tutor. But the main thing before your exam will be the Durga Puja and when I was in college I remember how badly I needed money during the pujas for shopping and all." I know what he meant and that lifted up my mood instantly. " You mean to say we will get salary for this?", I said giving a broad smile. I seriously needed money as Dad took away all my credit cards for not doing well in exams but this was a good oppurtinity for me to earn some cash. "I am in",I said with lots of excitement. "Me too", Rishi followed. We both were happy but more to hear that salary part and readily agreed for doing the job. Uncle gave an even broader smile as if he has completed a big mission. "So you guys can start from tommorow after college." I was happy and also bit excited for my new job. The next day I got Rishi's text that he has some work so he will be leaving earlier and he texted me the name of the hotel where Abhinav Rathore was staying and told me to meet him there only after the college gets over.

Because I loved you: Chapter 2

Within the next half an hour Rishi was there to pick me up. I got into the car and we headed towards the Writers building, where uncle worked as the joint secretary. When we reached there the peon told us to sit in the waiting room as uncle was in a meeting. There was an awkward silence and Rishi was busy playing angrybirds. It was rather a boring thing to do watching all those government employees passing every now and then. In the next 20 mins I also saw some men in complete white outfit, it wasn't hard for me to guess that they were none other than bunch of some politicians, whom else should we expect in the Writers building other than them. They were followed by some police officers and guards. May be they were important people. I looked at Rishi hoping he might know what was going on but he seemed to be unaffected by all these as he was busy completing that game level. After few mins more I again noticed those men coming out from a room but this time there was a young guy with them. Rishi got distracted by the noise of their footsteps and finally looked towards the corridor. Rishi turned his head towards me and asked me in a great excitement "Hey isn't that Abhinav Rathore, the son of the PM?".  Ya I guess  but they didn't show it in the news that he will be coming to Kolkata, I mean each and every activity of the Rathore family creates a headline."Ya, may be Dad can clearly tell us about all that" said Rishi. Abhinav Rathore was the only son of the PM Uday Rathore. Just heard somewhere in the news that he has returned to India after completing his studies from abroad early this year. He actually became a hot topic for the media since the first day. A peon came and told that uncle is done with his meeting and he wants to meet us. We entered into his room, he was having a broad welcome smile on his face. Rishi couldn't control his curiosity and asked uncle "What was Abhinav Rathore doing over here Dad?"
"Oh he was here to discuss about the comming votes and campaigning issues, Mr. PM wants his son get aquainted with all these matters afterall he is only going to carry his father's legacy ahead." I was more interested about knowing the work for which we were here than knowing about those hyprocrites named politicians.
"So Abhinav is the reason I called you two here."
Just hearing that line I was like no matter what, I'm not going to work for any politician, I just hate these corrupted politicians more than anything. But Rishi seemed to be pretty interested in working for him. Finally I opened my mouth and asked "What kinda work?".

***9 years back***
Phew finally back at home, being the most popular girl of the college can also be bit tiring. Fourth party of the week and this one was the best. Time for selfies I need to click some of my fab pics to upload them on fb. Though my every pic looks fab afterall I'm Rayesha Roy n I can never look bad.
***Back in present***
I opened my eyes paused for a while, everything was so perfect then. Karan looked at me strangely may be he was thinking if I was kidding about the party part as he has never seen me attending any party or any kind of social events in the last 6 years. I smiled at him n again started narrating my story.
My strict parents always told me that IIT should be my only target n I have to crack it by any means, but then when I cracked the IIT entrance exams I was a free bird as there was no mom n no dad completely away from home. I was definitely an exception among all those nerds n eventually I became the coolest and the most popular girl of the college. But that one guy who always used to put his feet on my dad's shoe whenever I did any mistake was Rishi. Rishi was the son of our family friend Rakesh uncle. I was always compared to him as everyone considered him as the ideal boy and we knew eachother since we were in our diapers. He was always my bestfriend and also my rakhi brother. Even in college he was the topper but my results were deteriorating with every comming exam as I was busy attending parties n going to pubs. It was during the end of my first year of college n I was busy bunking my classes with my friend Mehak, when all of a sudden I got a call from Rishi and as always when I recieved the call he started yelling at me for bunking classes n then he finally told me that Rakesh uncle wants to meet me n Rishi as he has some work for us. I was confused aswell as nervous God knows what work Rakesh uncle wants us to do.

Buried Somewhere Inside My Heart

I had a crush on you from the very first day of the High School. I never got the guts to take a step towards you as you were the most popular guy of the class. You hardly noticed me but I was your classmate since past 6 years. It was quiet obvious as I wasn't as hot as your girlfriend. I was just another normal girl who always dreamt big and loved living in her world of imagination. Years passed and we were in 12th grade, time changed but my feelings for you remained the same. It was school's annual function when you  pranked by giving my name for the singing performance without my concern. I had always been a shy girl but it was for the first time that your prank discovered the biggest talent in me, my singing talent. It was the best day of my life not because that I gave a good performance but because it was for the first time you talked to me. After that day even others started noticing me. Gradually I also became popular just like you. U started being friendly with me, we became friends, good friends. My last year of school was definitely the best year of my entire school life and later also the worst. I could realise I was changing, my friend circle changed as I belonged to the popular gang then. Last day of school and I finally proposed you after 7 long years. I tried my best to express what I exactly felt for you but you made all those words so silly when you said that we can be nothing more than friends. You used me to make your ex gf jealous. I was lost, I was heart broken, hurt and I had all the world's ugliest feelings inside me. I saw you again for the first time after 8years. You were standing silently in the crowd which was shouting and screaming my name during my concert. My first song which was a major hit was actually about you, about my first heart break. Thank you so much for giving me this life. I love it a lot. I know you want me now but its too late I can't look back when I have so much to look forward for. I loved you and I will always love you but don't know why that feeling for you got buried somewhere inside my heart.

When life takes a new turn: Chapter 9

Aditiya was bit puzzled to see me just before our wedding day where according to the hindu rituals meeting the to be bride or bridegroom before the wedding day is regarded as a bad luck. Definitely something really bad was going to happen n we both could sense it. I didn't beat up the bush n told Aditiya all about me n Sid. I couldn't understand his reactions but I'm sure he was definitely hurt. I was feeling guilty but I was helpless, I felt this short term feeling of guilt was better than having it for the rest of my life after our marriage. Aditiya's parents were roaming outside his room I guess they were trying to figure out about what we were talking that also just before the day of our marriage. After I finished my whole story I looked at him but he just said that its too late n I should go back home. My heartbeat nearly stopped for a while -
Is he still goin to marry me even after knowing that I love someone else? I was furious at him but I was not in a situation to burst out at him as some where I knew that it was my mistake n I don't have the right to react like that. I drove back home. I called Sid n told him everything that happened. He was also worried n later came up with the world's worst idea of running away and getting married in a temple or like that. It was a complete NO from myside for that. I couldn't hurt my parents, thats impossible. It was the day, the worst day of my life, everyone in my house were so happy but I couldn't still accept the harsh truth of my life that I'm going to marry someone else but not Sid. I gulped up that truth n decided to go with the flow. I was ready in the bridal attire then Mom came into the room n asked me to be strong. The entire house was full with my closed ones but only Mom knew in how much pain I was. Even she couldn't stop the marriage as it was already too late. Few hours left n my life would entirely change after that. I could hear some footsteps comming towards my room, it was Sid. I didn't want to see his face then. His presence made the whole thing even more difficult. Mom left us alone even uttering a single word.
"I want to talk to your Dad"
-"Noways I've never seen him this much happy before, this is the best day of his life and I don't want to hurt him no matter what."
We eventually got into a fight when suddenly my aunt rushed into my room n said that everything was over, Aditiya called off the marriage the last moment as he loves someone else so he can't marry me. I had a mixed feeling. I didn't know how to react. Aditiya definitely lied to his family for me. Guests had already started coming. I went to Dad's room where he was sitting all alone n it was for the first time I saw tears in his eyes. When he saw me he completely broke down n started blaming himself for everything. At that very moment Sid entered into the room n asked my hand for marriage from my Dad. Me n Dad both looked at him in astonishment. Dad's tears of sorrow turned into the tears of joy. May be that was the best moment of my life. The dark shadow miraculously went away n my entire house glimmed with happiness once again. Before that day I never knew that Sid's parents know everything his feelings for me n they fully supported him after they came to know about his decision of marrying me. We finally tied the knot. It has been 4 months since we got married n I must admit that I was never this much happy. I just got the news that Cyra n Arjun are also going to tie the knot soon . And this time Avi is very much serious about his relationship with Anisha. I called Aditiya to thank him for everything that he did for me and I came to know that he met a really nice girl whom he has even introduced to his parents. I was really happy for him n I finally got released from that horrible feeling of guilt. Avi was wrong I got my Prince Charming may be my life wasn't a fairytale but still it had a happy ending.
