I looked at Shourya, and he sighed me to relax. But how can I? Till now though I am their daughter in law, they treated me as their daughter. But now what if they reject me?
“Diya, please control yourself. I will talk to mom and dad. Relax baby” Shourya said as usual in his concern filled tone.
“Diya, come here,” mom said, and I went to her with fear.
I sat on the floor on my knees, keeping on my head in her lap.
“Mom, I didn’t do anything wrong. I have never done anything that spoils your reputation in society. I always tried to be a good daughter in law and wife. My past is always interfering with my present. I don’t know how to prove my innocence. But, whatever decision you take about me, I will obey that. If you think I am a black mark to your family, I am ready to go far away from you all” I said with tears and looked at Shourya.
He is starring at me thoughtfully for saying that I will go away from them. He went off, leaving me alone to room.
“Diya, what are you talking? Do you think we will doubt your character? All these months, we saw what you are. Your behaviour, your attitude, love and care on us, everything makes us feel that you are our daughter. Do you think that a mother doesn’t know about her daughter? We are thinking how to deal with those people who insulted our daughter but not to send you out of the house” mom said, wiping my tears.
I looked at dad.
“Don’t worry, Diya. We are not going to leave them. Now you are not alone; you have your parents and husband. We know well how to teach them a lesson for blaming you” dad said.
I hugged mom.
“Thank you so much, mom and dad,” I said.
“Now don’t cry, not only your Shourya but we also can’t see you in tears,” mom said, and I blushed hearing the words your Shourya.
Yup, he is my Shourya now. Just then I remembered teasing him yesterday and slipping the tongue saying that I will leave them. Now, he will surely kill me if I go to the room. God, save me, please. I went to my room, and I saw him packing his luggage. What is he doing?
“Shourya, what are you doing?”
“I am leaving. You stay with your mom and dad. I am least important to you, and you didn’t even love me,” he said, seriously.
Leaving me?? Very funny. Shourya doesn’t know that I am a devil, and I won’t let him leave me.
“Shourya, do you want to leave me? Don’t you love me?” I said pouting and biting my lower lip to tempt him
“Stop your bloody actions. If you do not love me, there is no need of staying together. You said you are ready to leave home. It means you are not at all concerned about me or my feelings,” he shouted at me, and I understood that he is serious.
I thought to leave because I didn’t want Shourya to get separate from his parents because of me. I want him to be happy with his family, but he misunderstood me.
“Shourya, I didn’t mean it.”
“Enough, not a word,” he said again with the same seriousness.
I am frightened with his anger now. I composed myself and hugged him.
“Shourya, I love you. I just thought to tease you. Please please don’t go anywhere leaving me. How can I live without you? I love you so much; please trust me,” I said, pouting.
“Ok I won’t go, but you need to do whatever I say,” he said, and I nodded.
“Kiss me.”
Shourya said, and I kissed him on the cheek.
“Not that kiss, give me kiss that melts my heart and makes me feel you are all mine,” he said seriously.
I placed my lips on his lips, and he smiled. He kissed me deeply until I struggled to breathe and left me. He lifted me in his arms and placed me on the bed.
“You are becoming too naughty these days. I got an excellent idea to make stop you from being naughty.”
“How?” I asked.
“If you become a mother to a naughty kid like me, then you will be busy with the kid and won’t be naughty anymore,” he said, making me happy.
“Why didn’t you say that you are ready to take new responsibility? I thought you need time for that. That’s why I said that we don’t want kids now.”
“I thought you didn’t want kids now.”
“Why are you so bothered about my likes, my darling? Do you love me so much that you are ready to sacrifice any of your likes just for me?”
“I love you, Shourya,” I said, smiling while looking at him.
“Is it possible for me to bear another naughty kid where it’s difficult for me to bear even this one naughty kid,” he said, kissing me on the neck and starting his romance.
“Who knows, it may be another harsh, strict and rude Shourya than cute, sweet and naughty Diya?”
“So you are sweet, naughty and cute where I am harsh, rude and strict?” He said, pinching my back lightly.
I closed my eyes and nodded.
“Say sorry for your words, or you will regret it?”
“No,” I smiled.
He kissed me on the side of my neck. He started his punishment for scolding him by kissing me several times and giving me hickeys on the neck. Stupid, I must use extra makeup now to cover these. His punishment is as sweet as his love.
“Do you regret now scolding me?”
“No, actually I want to scold you more for giving me hickeys which are visible to others stupid” I scolded.
“I think you need few more,” he said, kissing my lips and giving his love bites again on the place which is invisible to others.
“I love you, my wife,” Shourya mumbled.
“I love you, DCP sir,” I said, hugging him when he has broken the kiss by taking away his lips from mine.
Next day I am getting to leave to office and Shourya told me that he would find out who were the reason behind telecasting that bl**dy news against me.
“Diya, today I am meeting Ranveer to talk to him and find out the reason behind his actions. After all, he is my best friend,” Shourya said, shocking me.
I just nodded as I don’t know how to react.
Shourya PoV:
I told Diya that I am going to meet Ranveer today. Till now, I thought he killed Rajeev for his selfishness. But, if it’s Diya who killed Rajeev and Ranveer took the blame for her, it means he is not selfish, and he sacrificed for Diya.
But why did he support criminals? Why did Ranveer interrupt my duties to save them? Is he good or bad? Does he change after releasing from jail or becoming the minister? Whatever it is, I should talk to him to know the truth.
I took my mobile to call him. After a long time, I called Ranveer, not as a part of my profession. He received the call.
“Hello Shourya, what’s the matter? I am busy with my marriage works, so come to the point fast” he said in one go.
“I want to meet you.”
“Do you want to meet me as my best friend or DCP Shourya?”
“Whom will you meet?” I posed a question to him as an answer.
“If it’s my friend, he is always welcome to my home at any time to meet me. If it’s DCP, then as of now I am busy with marriage works, I can’t meet you,” he said.
“I want to meet you as your best friend’s husband.”
“What happened to Diya?” He asked worriedly.
Hearing his tone, I understood that they are really good friends. Does he change? If Ranveer’s change is real, then why is he showing the same concern on Diya even today?
“Tell me Shourya what happened to her?”
“Once you said you are going to hurt her for our hostility, don’t you remember, Ranveer? Why are you so tensed now?”
“Who said I am tensed? Not at all.”
“Why did you help me to get out of those fake complaints?”
“Who said I helped you, Shourya? You know well that’s planned by me,” Ranveer said.
“Is it Ranveer? But Diya accepted you were the one who helped me and her too. Why are you playing this game Ranveer? Are you influenced by someone or scared for someone? What is it that made you act as if you are bad? Why are you playing two roles every time? Once you will behave as if you are concerned about the safety of the public, but next moment, you will help criminals. Whom are you trying to fool? Today, I want to know the reason behind your change, if you think I am your friend,” I said, stressing last words.
“Meet me at our friends’ place during college days today evening,” Ranveer disconnected the call saying that.
