THE CRIES OF MY HEART #chapter6
Amrish was sitting outside his window holding a rose in his hand, he smiled looking at the rose. Suddenly he hears the sound of his door so he hides the rose it was his sister Richa, she sees him and approaches him:
Richa: you still can't sleep bro, that's good because I'm not sleepy too, we can talk for a moment...
Amrish: you know I can't deny you anything go come here...
Richa: (sits down) well, tell me, big brother, when are you going to think about getting married? Or you don't want to give me a sister-in-law!
Amrish remains silent for a moment, he looks at the rose that was hidden, he takes it and shows it to his sister:
Amrish: do you see that little sister flower? I suddenly received it in a very strange and mysterious way…
Richa: (took the rose) Do you know what this flower symbolizes? It symbolizes romance, love, caring, gentleness... And there's an old story that if you want to know who your soul mate will be, you take a rose and throw it far away... Then the rose will go so far as to find that soul mate
Amrish: (stands) and you believe in such nonsense?
Richa: There's a way to know if it's trivial or not! Look at the night, it is very beautiful but it is even more so when it has its stars close to it! To have the answer to your questions every night you will stand here there in front of your window and you will count the stars
Amrish: and what will it be used for?
Richa: Can you at least try to be patient? You never expect us to never finish your stuip sentences! When you count these stars and reach fifty miles then your soul mate will come to you in a dream
Amrish: (looks at the moon)…
At Vandhara house, in a room, Jatin was sitting in a chair and thinking about everything that happened today in her house "there is certainly no proof but wherever this story will be told Survival will be mistaken for suspect number one… She may have poisoned the coffee and asked Shivani to bring it to Kavita to put the blame on her”… Jatin was really shaken by all her drama… Survived between haste:
Survived: dad tell me what just happened? Do you realize the fallout?
Jatin: (stands up) Survive… Life has surprises in store for us that we least expect… No one could have imagined that such a dramatic thing could happen in my family.
Survived: but dad, I'm not talking about that… I'm talking about the argument between you and mom! You all took sides… Between me and Shivani you didn't have to do that
Jatin: I don't really want to discuss this Survi you should just know that even if the world turns its back on you, I, your father, will be there for you! Your mother preferred to choose Shivani's innocence by abandoning yours and I couldn't bear this decision so I had to support you
Survived: but dad (walks up to him) you know how far this fight will take us, don't you?
Jatin: I know it very well my darling… I am well aware of where this quarrel will lead us but if it is the only way to prove your innocence then I submit to it…
The discussion didn't continue so Jatin took her daughter in her arms, in another room, Ashoka was arranging clothes and Shivani was trying to make her mother understand the reason but she was not listening:
Shivani: Mom what did you just do? Do you realize what this decision is going to do to our family?
Ashoka: (still keeps tidying up)
Shivani: mom I'm talking to you at least try to listen to me for a moment (grabs his mother's arm) mom
Ashoka: (forces his hand away) let go—me Shivani! Why do you want to force to understand my reason? I know what I'm doing and you shut up and watch
Shivani: observe what? What should I observe mom? That my family is splitting up? That my father and my mother no longer speak to each other through my fault as well as that of my older sister
Ashoka: It's not your fault! Shivani, you are certainly my daughter but you did not inherit my cunning… If I do this it is so that Survi recognizes herself that she is the culprit
Shivani: (incomprehensible)
Ashoka: I know you don't understand me very well let me enlighten you… What I just did there, the weak people do not support it and as I know my Survi she will not support the division of her family and so that everything returns to normal… She will recognize her mistake
Shivani: but mom how can you doubt your daughter like that? You know very well that Survi is incapable of harming even a fly, so how would she be able to poison Kavita?
Ashoka: I can't answer your question my daughter but if Survi is really the culprit we will find out very quickly! And to achieve this you will have to do everything I tell you and that without exception...
Shivani froze watching her mother, Kavita watched everything, she smiled as she touched her bridal necklace then she said “I really am a very cunning woman! I made sure that this family is divided, the father who defends the eldest and the mother defends the youngest! Now no one will speak to each other and I will continue to drive the knife into the wound to give more taste ”… What she did not know was that Prasher was behind:
Prasher: Kavita what are you doing outside my mother's room?
Kavita: (surprised, turns around and loses words) uh… uh
Prasher: Are you eavesdropping now?
Kavita: No! No how can you think that of me? I came to talk to mom so that she closes her eyes to this misunderstanding but she has already fallen asleep
Prasher: ok I see come on you have to go to bed now…
Kavit: yes...
The next day, in a house, Rishab was in the company of a woman:
Rishab: Bilo I asked you for your favor but you haven't told me yet where you are...
Bilo: you will have to be patient Mr. Pathania because I, Bilo, do everything with patience… Besides, you haven't yet told me what I will get in exchange for this dirty work
Rishab: you will have my son…
Bilo: what Amrish? (she asks with all enthusiasm) do you know what you are proposing to me here? My dream since always… You know to have him I can do everything in this world
Rishab: and I'm warning you don't let this love get in the way
Bilo: there will be no such thing be certain Rishab
Survi was walking down the street with her head elsewhere. She was thinking about everything that was going on in her house right now, a car was heading straight for her without her knowing it. The driver was on the phone so he didn't realize but just when the worst was about to happen the driver realizes and veers off the road. Survi falls on a table where she knocks over all the merchandise that was there. Everyone was shocked, the driver gets off and it was Amrish. He walks up to her and holds out his hand, she responds to this and Amrish raises it, their eyes collide and they are all shocked:
Survived: (hysterically) what? You again? Won't you let me go?
Amrish: you? I can definitely conclude that you don't know how to cross a road!
Survival: and I take it that you didn't know how to drive… Didn't you know that communicating while driving is literally forbidden?
Amrish: (pause)
Survival: ah you wonder how I know? You don't need to know that! I can sue you for reckless driving but I won't but remember this if you ever fail me again with your car I won't hesitate to sue you...
Then she turns on her heels and walks away. At the Vandhara house, Kavita was in her room, on the phone with the doctor who served as her apartment to achieve her goal:
Kavita: (in ball) I asked you to wait you will have this money! Why urge me—so did you—I tell you that I'll run away with your money?
- no but… (at the end of the line)
Kavita: Enough I don't need to hear your details… You will have this amount in your account tonight 500 thousand rupees right?
- Yes !
What Kavita didn't know was that Ashoka had heard her, she was surprised "500 thousand rupees?" Who does Kavita owe all this money to? It's such a big sum… I have to know it” she left without Kavita seeing her. Amrish was at his desk talking to a man:
Amrish: Vivan I don't want to lose this project that's why I entrust it to you! Right now I don't have enough time...
- yes sir I will do as you wish…
Knock Knock
Amrish: yes come in…
The door opens very slowly and reveals a woman, she was very beautiful and charismatic even in arnakali, she advanced with a sensual gait. She was swinging her bag like a toy with a beaming smile that made you want to fall for her…
Amrish all surprised gets up from his chair, Vivan turns to see:
Amrish: Ka…Kamini?
TO BE CONTINUED...
Who is this Kamini?
Ashoka will know what Kavita is hiding?
What is Bilo and Kavita up to?
