Lost Wife by pokhila (life changing books to read txt) 📕

           Dinner was a luxury affair , they served it in such a way , as if , its  a creation of art ......

                 Anirudh ordered all her and his  favourites , 

             They ate in silence , the sexual tension was just diverted , it was still looming high .

                               After dinner Runi was firm with her decision , today she will make it clear to Anirudh , he must learn to take responsibility , accept  his mistakes and be truthful to not only his loved ones but even to himself . 

      She wiped her hand and lips with the napkin and slowly stood up , she went near him , then took his hand and brought him to sit on the divan . Anirudh just looked at her , saying nothing , but expecting to continue from where they left ...before dinner .

      She was sitting close to him , holding his hands , looking straight into his eyes .

       " Anirudh , ...I want you , I want to stay ....together , always ...... not like this ,spending time for a few hours and then you drop me to my place and you leave for your own , I don't want to stay like this...........separated , it's like a punishment ." tears were roling down while saying all these .

           Anirudh wiped her tears , how will he make her understand ...he want the same thing and it is  her own sister was the one always creating problems one after another . Last month he felt like killing himself , after seeing the footage , until yesternight , she was already tensed with her exams , he don't want to give any unnecessary tension .

               " I love you Runi , " he kissed her damp cheeks , " I want the same , to  always stay together , " he kissed her lips , " and you know what hurts the most .....your engagement " , he was staring at the ring on her finger ,

           " You didn't even say a word to stop it from happening , " Runi was a little annoyed , 

      Anirudh tried to change the topic , he don't want to spoil the evening ......

                          He picked her and took her out of the room , there was a dance floor on the upper deck , it was a little dim and smaller than the one below  , he was carrying her bridal style , very few people there  , only couples like them having dinner in private .

                        Runi knows only classical , but Anirudh was in a different mood , he want to have a memorable night ...either way , he made her move along  the floor .

         The music changed from fast  to slow  then to something sweet and romantic .

         After sometime Runi started to enjoy , she forgot the tension , the other couples were also enjoying , the whole environment was romantic ,

             The dance floor below was densely packed , mostly young boys and girls like Sumit and Panchi . it was past midnight but the party was young , Sumit was with some boys , but keeping an eye on Panchi every now and then . Sumit's friends were of a different kind , they were more into business and moneymaking .  He met them bychance , they were also in a private balconey , wherethey can see both the upper and the lower dance floor .

       Sumit was looking at Panchi when  one of his friends said .

    " I think you have one more family , partying here" , he pointed another dance floor on the otherside ,

                   Sumit looked towards that direction , it waa a little dim but he can make out Anirudh's face , the girl he was holding looked familiar but her face was rested on his chest , they looked very much in love . Sumit had a little doubt , but he will clear it before leaving .

                Anirudh didn't want to end the night , he want to hold her, like this forever .

                Runi got carried away but she was still  determined to clear her doubt .

               " Why are you still keeping Anu ....you must have sent her back ."

                 Anirudh knew Runi will ask this one day ..........

            " I will tell you all the truth , everything , but not tonight , tonight is ours , "                                                                      Runi didn't like the way he was putting away all the doubts and trouble for some other day .

          He felt Runi became a little stiff ........

           " Runi , Runi ... hey , sweetheart , don't spoil the evening , please just enjoy ."

          " My whole life is getting spoiled ,and you are worried about a spoiled evening , " she was so hurt , 

           " Okay Runi , I promise , I promise that  this week , I will come and talk to masi ma , promise ".

           Runi was so happy she kissed him , taking his lips for a long time .

         " If you keep your promise .....I promise you  , I will come to you myself and I will not stop you ......."

                    Anirudh was so happy ,

                " I will wait for that day and moment " he whispered in her ears                                                                                                 After another hour of slow dancing and lots of kiss the couple were finally ready to go home , on the other hand Panchi was fast asleep inside the car , Sumit told her to take a nap as he was waiting for someone .

           Sumit saw them walking out and coming towards the parking , he went inside his car and waited till Anirudh start his drive , now he was confirmed , all that he heard , he sensed , it was indeed  Anirudh , the one who cheated on Chhaya and that girl was Anu her step sister .

                   He wanted to forgive Anu , because he loved her , without knowing . A few weeks ago he called her and said he want to meet her , as said he went the other day to meet her , but what he heard and saw was beyond his capacity to forgive , Anu not only poisoned Runi's  first night but she took advantage of a drunk Anirudh and slept with him . He will not let Chhaya spoil her life , he will disclose the truth .
