Their Journey

Pihu's pov

"Doll,,,,are we going to stay here? But this place is very small.... it's not big like our mansion....the bed is too small..... I won't fit here...look at me.... I'm a big boy...."

I started to smile. He always make me smile with his words. He is such a cute baby.

"But we have to stay here.... remember we are in a battle against Baivab"

His eyes got filled with happiness.

"I'm so excited....tell me when it will start?"

"It has already started"

I said walking closer to him.

"But where is our team? Where is our army?"

He looked out of the window. I smiled again.

We have came to this part of the city. I have to find out three vital problems of this place. Then I have to give the solutions as well. At the end the people of Kashi will vote.

Rajasaab and Ranima didn't agree first. But Rajababu is very stubborn. He wanted to come with me. Finally they both agreed to send him with me.

"Where is our army?"

He asked me in bit irritation.

"The army is only you and me...We don't need much people...we both are strong enough.... don't you think?"

I asked him.

Rajababu frowned and started to think deeply. I caressed his hair gently. He smiled at me. I don't know why but whenever I looked deeper into his eyes I got sad. My heart ached while remembering those days when he was not sick. I slightly bent and kissed his forehead. His smiled ear to ear.

"I'm hungry..."

"Okay...tell me what you want to eat?"

I asked him.

"Golgappa..."

I frowned in tension.

"You are not allowed to eat street food...."

"Why? Why everyone is telling me to not do this.....i won't listen to anyone....I will eat everything...."

He is getting angry.

"Rajababu...the doctor told me to take care of you.....your head was paining that night remember? You have to heal faster......"

I tried to make him understand.

"Nooooo....just go away....you all are same....nobody loves...me..."

He stood up angrily and started to throw things randomly.

I got scared after witnessing his violence. His mood is fluctuating extremely. I stood in silence. Dr. Batra told me that he can harm anyone because he is not in his right state of mind.

"I will not stay here...I will go back to my mansion...."

He was about to go out but suddenly he stopped. My eyes also landed on the entrance and I got shocked after seeing the person.

It's Myra mam.

She is standing with tears in her eyes. She is looking at Rajababu.

"Veer....."

She almost whispered and walked towards Rajababu. She cupped his face and smiled.

"Myra... let's go from here...she is bad bad bad... I'm not going to talk to her anymore...."

My heart clenched when Rajababu said that. The words of Rajasaab appeared in my mind.

When he will be healed, he will go back to Myra....

Suddenly it felt like I'm seeing the future.

I can't even explain how much sad I felt when I saw them together. I masked my painful expression.

No pihu... don't act selfish...Your first priority is to heal him...You only want his happiness...He has the right to live his life at his own terms. Don't become a selfish person.

"You remember me Rajveer?"

Myra Mam's voice is shaking.

"Yes...you are Baivab's sister... I'm happy you came...now let's go outside....I want to eat golgappa..."

Rajababu held her wrist and almost dragged her out of the mansion.

I stood there in silence. Then I realised that my tears were soaking my cheeks.

I wiped my tears. Then I shrugged those thoughts away and decided to focus on the current situation.

Suddenly Myra mam entered. She is looking so hesitant.

"Rajveer is waiting in car....i just thought to give a visit here....I heard from Baivab Bhai that you came here.... would you mind if i take Rajveer with me? Just for few hours...."

I smiled slightly.

"Don't give him golgappa....he is on medication"

I said. Myra mam smiled.

"You are sweet Pihu....I wish I didn't agree to marry Nishant that day....You have no idea how much I'm regretting...I was just waiting for my death....Baivab Bhai told me that there is very little hope for Rajveer....Dr. Batra told him that Rajveer will..........."

Myra mam broke out in sobs.

"Nothing will happen to him....he will live..."

I said. Myra mam looked at me in shock.

"How can you loose hope so easily? Dr. Batra can't decide my Rajababu's destiny..."

"Your Rajababu?"

Myra mam asked me instantly and my face flushed.

An awkward silence came between us.

"I'm happy that you are taking care of him....and I'm not loosing hope...I believe in our love....Rajveer will be healed one day and come back to me"

I sensed a pinch of jealousy on Myra Mam's voice. She slowly walked out.

I won't judge her. If I was at her place, i may also feel jealousy. She loved him a lot but she took a wrong decision.

I got myself busy in arranging the room. But still something kept on disturbing my mind.

"Veer, we can visit this amusement park...."

Myra entered the park and Rajveer followed her.

Rajveer got inside a toy train and Mira took her position beside him. She looked at him and so many memories flashed infront of her eyes.

"Veer... I'm scared...I can't.... I'm scared of rides.."

"Just hold my hand...this is fun...just enjoy Myra"

Myra held his hand and closed her eyes. The ride started to swing. Myra clutched Rajveer's chest and hide her face. He also held her protectively on his chest.

He has booked the whole park for her. He didn't want people to witness their love. He is a private man and he doesn't like to public his love life.

When the ride got finally over, she opened her eyes and found him staring at her with amusement. Her face flushed instantly. She tried to face palm herself but he caught her wrist.

"Let me enjoy this heavenly sight"

She bite her lips and hide her face on his broad chest. He kissed her hair and closed his eyes in pure bliss.

Myra's trance broke. She looked at Rajveer who is sitting with a grumpy face.

"Do you remember those days? May be not....but one day you will...."

She said with a smile.

Suddenly Rajveer got down from the toy train. Myra also jumped.

"What happened Veer?"

"I'm not Veer okay..... I'm Rajababu.... don't call me that again... I'm not feeling good here... I'm bad bad bad....I made her cry...you are also not good...you took me here...who told you to bring me here...my doll is waiting for me.....Just take me back to my doll....right now..... otherwise I will throw you in that pool...."

Myra moved back in fear.

Her heart shattered into pieces.

"But.... I'm...your....friend too..."

She almost whispered.

"No you are not....my only friend is my doll...she is also my wife...and Dad told me to protect my wife and stay by her side always....But I did wrong...I should have return....She is waiting for me...."

Rajveer ran out of the park.

It took sometime for Myra to recover. Then she started to cry by covering her face.

Pihu's pov

I came out of the house. I decided to give a visit to this place. I have to talk to the people to know about their problems.

I was walking inside a village.

"Dolllllll......"

I turned my head and find Rajababu is running towards me. I was shocked after seeing him running like that.

He came near me and suddenly he sat on his knees and encircled my waist by his huge arms and pressed his head on my belly.

I was stunned!!!

I looked around in tension to see if someone is watching us or not. This will be very embarrassing. But at the same time my heart started to beat like a mad horse. There was something on his hold that erupted goosebumps all over me.

"I'm sorry.... I'm sorry....I will listen everything.... don't get mad doll.... don't leave me ever...I will die if you do that...."

He is crying!!!

My heart melted. I immediately held his head and tried to make him apart from me. It's becoming difficult for me to maintain my balance. I'm so small compared to him. But he is holding me so tightly.

"Rajababu....get up...look at me.. I'm not mad"

I tried again but his hold increased.

"I'm sorry....I will never shout at you..."

I stood like that. He kept on saying sorry. A very different feeling arise inside me and make me blush furiously.

I want to encounter this when he will be on his full senses. I want to see his craving for me like a man.

I immediately shrugged my thoughts away.

What am I even thinking ?

This is not possible! Not in this life.

I came back to reality.

Rajababu now slowly stood up. I wiped his tears immediately. Suddenly he picked me up on his arms and started to run.

"Rajababu get me down....ha ha ha...."

I started to laugh so much. He came near a small pond. He immediately got inside the pond. Then he put me down. Within a second we both started to throw water at each other's direction.

The air got filled with our laughing. I laughed so much after a long time.

This is the pure happiness.

I don't care what he will do when he will get healed but these memories will be enough for me for the rest of my life.

It's not necessary that everyone will get their true love at the

end. It's not necessary that love will always present with us physically, The purest love always felt by soul. My one sided love is enough for this life.

I'm happy only by loving him. I don't expect much. I'm content totally.
