Chapter Twenty Nine
Early morning Mumbai brought in rain clouds hovering in the air, the weather reporter confirmed a bright sunny day ahead. Seriously nobody really bothered to hope.
These days you could never bank on the ever changing weather patterns. You just got on with whatever was needed to get done. Be it sunshine days, be it rainy days, be it cold days life just moved on in its pace, in the city of dreams Mumbai. Where glamour and hot gossip of the rich and the famous were at its all time high.
This dreary morning brought tension within the walls of Kapoor Mansion it was still reeling from shock of A Jealous Rage between its master and mistress. They didn’t even dare to look they hid with a dread of fear, first for its mistress and now for its master. What was going on?
Should it carry this new piece of information to its friend’s at the Sharma residence, they thought for a while and then decided to keep things confidential within the walls of Kapoor Mansion only.
Bansi Kaka received an early morning wakeup call from the boss requesting for him to send a change of clothing for both him and Priya madam to a city hotel.
Yesterday evening he knew something bad happened between the boss and his wife, he heard the screaming and the banging in their room and was so worried. Thank god no one from the family where in the house apart from the servants it was only him that could hear the fight going on. he didn’t listen to it because it frightened him to even hear.
Later on he came to know from the security guards on duty how madam was running away from Kapoor Mansion and the boss was chasing after her. Bansi kaka reprimanded the security guards and told them not to gossip and if the boss found out they would both be fired.
After that rebuking both the guards considered themselves being told off and knew to stay within their limits. They went back to their jobs until they got off duty this morning.
A little while later Bansi kaka walked into the master bedroom and came to an abrupt halt looking at the mess in the room. The bed was in total disarray, the green coverlet haphazardly thrown on the floor while on the bed the crumpled sheets and pillows seemed to tell its own story.
The broken pieces of glass on the floor were shattered beyond repair into millions of pieces and you would hate to image the cost of the ornaments broken, each piece worth more than the salary of an average person’s annual income.
Closing the door quickly he went about to clean and tidy up the mess in the master bedroom so that nobody could bear witness to the condition of the room. He worked speedily putting things back into place and disposing of the shattered glass pieces on the tiles in fact he needed to get the workman up here to sort out the damages on the tiled floor.
Once again he thanked god silently that the rest of the Kapoor family had not been home when world war three between husband wife was very rife last night. He wiped his forehead with the little droplets of sweat forming thinking to himself never in his service here did he ever witness something like this.
He was so relieved this morning after he got the call from the boss asking him to send a change of clothing to the hotel for both of them. It confirmed that the boss and his wife were together.
He needed to keep an eye on things before he reported to Dadi about the goings on here but this time he was keeping this to himself. No one was going to find out about last night it was his duty to ensure that this never got out. Dadi was like a terminator herself wiping out anything in her way that came in between Ram and Priya Kapoor but he couldn’t reveal this to her.
Mumbai’s City Hotel
Priya woke up with a fright, a glimmer of light peeping through the window but it seemed dull and grey. Looking around the room the unfamiliar feel of it made her rub her eyes from her wake up sleep hoping she was dreaming but the memories of last night never left her it came flooding to the surface of her mind and she knew she was awake to a nightmare in her life.
Ram was no were to be seen but she could hear his voice on the phone in the outer room.
Getting off the bed she went to the bathroom to wash and shower.
After a little while later she walked back into the room crashing into the bulky frame of her husband. Taking advantage of the situation he wrapped his arms around her waist. She stiffened within the confines of his arms closing in on her he bent to kiss her lips but she turned her face and his lips ended up clumsily at the side of her face.
Knowing he was being snubbed by his wife, he smiled to himself thinking of his hellcat right here. Not to be outdone he glided his mouth on her skin nipping on the tender flesh, she could feel his tongue on her neck creating havoc within her twisting and turning within his arms she was trying desperately to get out of his clasp. Pushing at his chest she said, if I remember correctly I said to you don’t touch me, leave me alone.
Gripping her waist more tightly he said and if you remember correctly I said, I’ll never leave you alone. Get one thing clear baby however far you run I’ll be right behind you.
She smirked I won’t need to run if you didn’t act like a crazy mad man.
Oh just stop this, I said I am sorry but you just won’t listen to me
With all of her strength she pushed him away from her
And you got that right she said, I’m not listening to what you have to say.
With a sulk she went to get her hand bag, looking in to see what she had inside to make herself look decent. Her eyes were a disaster they were red and swollen and she needed to cover them with some eye makeup.
Ram giving up said, I’ve asked Bansi Kaka to send a change of clothing for us the bag arrived about an hour ago, she didn’t acknowledge what he said and just ignored him
He shook his head and went to the lounge area to make an important work related call while she silently eyed him out in his grey suit wearing a white shirt and red striped tie.
looks like business was on his agenda today why did she think that maybe she’d be his priority, stupid thought when it came to Ram Kapoor and his empire.
She went to look into the bag that came from Kapoor Mansion, and found all the items that she needed. God bless Bansi Kaka’s soul he was a miracle worker.
She dressed in white flowing linen pants with a royal blue tunic top which skimmed over her body emphasizing her shape.
Looking into the beautiful framed wall mirror, she gasped in surprise at her slightly protruding stomach. How did she miss this bulge, when did it happen that she forgot to look.
Oh my god she stood staring at herself in the mirror placing both her hands on her stomach she looked in pure amazement, wow she whispered to herself.
Ram entered the room to tell her room service had just delivered the breakfast he’d ordered for them. He stopped dead in his tracks watching her through the mirror.
Their eyes clashed, a serene smile touched her lips. Oh my god he thought to himself she was just breathtaking. His eye moved to her hand on her stomach and he was gob smacked by the vision he saw through the mirror.
Like a magnetic pull he was drawn in walking towards her. Their eyes never wavering from their spell bound look. He closed in on her putting his hand around her stomach he caressed the little bulge whispering in her ear, Is this is our baby in here and all she did was nod her head with the same amazing look.
Ram said to her, you are so beautiful, even more beautiful today. I need to see you. Sliding his mouth to her hair, he said so beautiful baby.
They were so caught up by emotion that she forgot she was angry with him.
I want to see what my baby looks like and he gently pulled her top over her head she lifted her arms so that he could remove it. He lowered his hand to her tummy and together they saw for the first time the little bulge in real what a breath taking sight it was to behold for both of them.
Our baby is growing he said, I could go on looking at you like this forever. She turned into his arms and he wrapped her tight into him as they both shared their emotions of joy. I love you so much he said, you are my life without you I would just die.
He dropped to his knees in front of her and kissed her stomach, she held his head gently running her fingers through his hair.
Speaking to his unborn child he said my precious baby papa loves you so much. He continued to slide his mouth around her tummy dropping little feather light kisses along the way.
He worked his way up to her breast and stood up, taking his hands to her back he unclasped her bra hook and her naked breast spilled out they were full and heavy they looked beautiful.
Lowering his head he took one of her nipple into his mouth and sucked on it until it formed its hardened peek. He lapped at it she moaned her desire for more.
With his tongue he gently soothed over the deep red bruising on her skin, he was rough with her yesterday and regretted it. Taking his finger he traced over the marks I’m sorry babe, so sorry about this.
She opened her eyes to see what he was talking about and she spotted the red marks on her B**** she suddenly remembered that she was still so angry with him, how could she let him get away with this she pushed him away, stop please just stop she said
He looked at her surprised, what’s wrong baby, did I hurt you, looking at her with concern
Ram just get away from me she said, I don’t want you to touch me
Priya what are you talking about off course I want to touch you, I want to do a lot more than touch you
Forget it Ram just forget it. don’t you think I’ve forgotten about yesterday. I know I just got carried away now but I haven’t forgotten what you did to me.
Priya how many times are you going to harp on the same thing
She glared at him oh so you think this is not a harping matter let me tell you Ram it’s a damn serious matter to me.
She made a grab for her bra and hooked it back on, next she quickly put on her to top covering her body so that she could get herself back in control of the situation.
Ram felt like banging his head against a brick wall, could he ever get through this difficult hellcat he was married to. Just when he was stirring the fires of passion again, she dozed it with her icy chill.
Not wanting to get into another battle with her he said breakfast is ready
I’m not hungry she said
And he said, I said breakfast is ready you have five minutes to make an appearance
Don’t you dare give me orders, she said.
You are my wife and you are carrying my child I will give you orders, understood, he said.
Maybe you should have considered a baby machine instead of me, she grabbed her bag and walked out the room.
Eyeing the breakfast laid out she turned away, picked up a red juicy apple from the fruit bowl on the side table and walked to the door. Priya where are going? He demanded an answer.
Not listening to him and not even bothering to answer she opened the door walked out
Ram cursed himself and followed her out, she was at the elevator stepping in to the empty waiting car, the door was about to close when he just barely made it inside.
Glaring at her what madness is this Priya, are you god damn crazy?
She turned her face away from him snubbing him once again and bit into her apple. Ram was frustrated at her attitude and wanted answers. The lift haltered stopping at a lower floor. The doors slid open and a formally dressed gentleman entered with a friendly smile on his face, eyeing Priya out.
Ram was most certainly not impressed he closed in on his wife and very firmly put his hand around her waist holding her close to his side, staking his claim so that it was very clear she was very much his. Her body stiffened in his clasp but he was never letting her go.
The lift stopped on the ground floor the gentleman stepped out allowing both Ram and Priya to exit the lift. She was still gripped very firmly has Ram guided her outside.
The uniformed doorman tipped his hat in greeting, Good morning Sir, Madam have a pleasant day.
OMG, this person is just impossible, crazy maniac,
