Play In Darkness (Eng/END)

15. A Broken Hearted Playboy

There is a hickey on her neck. Oh ... Delisha was embarrassed to see herself in the mirror. Luckily the man didn't touch it more than the face and neck area, she was sure of it. Her throat felt dry, remembering last night's incident.

When she awoke it was already broad daylight. The window is wide open and the room is neatly arranged. She sat at the dressing table with a dull face and disheveled hair from having just woken up. Delisha opened her cell phone screen, at 12:30 p.m. and reluctantly read several text messages from Imdad Hussain's number.

[Don't go to the office. Get some rest for today, my assistant]

Delisha smiled grimly, warmth creeping up her face. My assistant. To be precise, that man was taking care of her now

[There are clothes you can put on before Vijay delivers your things. Trust me, the clothes are new and clean]

She glanced over the nightstand were two t-shirts and two pajama pants. And her face was getting redder when she saw an object. Box of panties, contains 3 pcs, pink color with silk lace, size M.

[I don't know if it's the right item, but I guess it's the right size for you]

There is another box, containing bras, 2 pcs, pink the same type as the underwear, the size is 36/80 cup B. Delisha's face is bright red. Oh, what a shame! She just met and this man already prepared her underwear. If she wears it, then the man knows the color of her underwear. Embarrassing! Shameful!

Delisha cursed herself, ruffling her hair and face. Ugh! The man must have many experiences with women. God damn it! Yuck!

Disappointment suddenly filled her mind. Ouch, what's wrong with me? We are not in a special relationship, why should I feel disappointed? Delisha shook her head to get rid of her stupid thoughts.

"Raaj tumhara nahin hai!" Raj will not be yours! snapped a child from the doorway.

Delisha turned towards the voice. A little girl in a full suit with a scarf on her shoulders. Her hair was plaited and a red dot between her eyebrows. The girl was surrounded by an aura like a white rabbit. The 7-year-old little girl made a sullen face showing her hostility towards Delisha.

"What do you mean, little girl?" ask Delisha.

"It's my Raj! I won't let anyone take him from me!"

"Who is Raj?"

"Don't act stupid, you i***t!" cursed the little girl. She saw that early in the morning Imdad had come to this woman's room, opened window and prepared clothes for her, and ordered the servants to serve this woman as well as possible. This woman will be her tough rival.

Delisha's eyes widened upon hearing the little girl cursing. She has no manners at all. The girl shrieked at her in annoyance. "Imdad is mine!" Then she runs away.

Delisha was flabbergasted. Her eyes flickered in disbelief. Is that man so playboy that even a child is possessive of him? Dare to threaten and curse other women? Oh, my! Delisha is ready to turn over Imdad Hussain's house. She rushed out of the room to chase the girl. However, she ran into an old woman.

"Good morning, Miss Marianne!" said the old woman, touching a hand to her forehead, saluting. She wears a white sari and a scarf over her gray hair. The woman looked elegant and emitted a soothing white aura. His age may be over 60 years. Delisha could see that her wick of life was not long anymore. In a few months, this woman will die.

"Good morning Madam!" Delisha replied, returning her respect.

"Does Rani bothering you, Miss?" asked the old woman.

Delisha shook her head a little. The old woman laughed crisply. "Rani is a bit naughty, but she's a good girl. Raj spoiled her a lot, that's why she really loves him."

"Raj?"

"Haan!" Yes, said the old woman, "we call Mr. Imdad at home as Raj."

Delisha nodded her head. "Is Rani Imdad's daughter?" She's curious.

"Nahin, nahin hai" No, no, the old woman replied quickly. "Raj picked her up from the orphanage. Rani is like his own little sister," said the woman, smiling cheerfully. She glanced at the red mark on the neck of the young woman who was Raj's guest. Apparently, this woman is very special to Raj.

"You are very beautiful, Marianne-ji!" she said again, stroking Delisha's face as if adoring her and shaking her head as an expression of joy. "This is the first time Raj has brought a girlfriend home, I am so happy. You can call me Auntie. I take care of everything in this house. Come, child, come with me!" She said without giving Delisha a chance to speak. He pulled Delisha back to the room and told her to take a shower immediately.

When she finished showering, Auntie had prepared a set of pink saris embroidered with shiny silver threads for her.

“This … feels too much …,” Delisha muttered as Auntie tied the neck strap around her nape. Her stomach was open while her waist and legs were wrapped in saris. She was like a doll being dressed up. Pieces of jewelry attached to the hair part, large earrings on the ears, and dozens of colored bracelets jingle on both arms. She may gain 3 kg from the jewelry alone.

"Ah, this isn't too much!" said Auntie. "This is how women should dress."

"Yes, but hence I can't walk," Delisha complained.

Apart from wearing Indian saris, Delisha was also treated to Indian specialties. Auntie provides a variety of foods consisting of curry, rice and parata bread, and some sweets. Auntie's cooking is very good. Auntie spoiled her very much and had no intention of letting her go. She was invited to tour the house, see the garden with various types of plants, tell the story of Raj's childhood and youth while showing Raj's school album from elementary school level until the man graduated from IT college and two years ago was appointed CEO of Xin India. It seems that Imdad Hussain's life journey went smoothly even though he was an orphan. Meanwhile, Rani, the little girl, was sick since she is a baby. Imdad took her from the orphanage to live at his house, received intensive care until she recovered and became the girl she is now, Imdad Hussain's little sister.

Delisha excuses herself that she had something to do in her room, Auntie agreed to leave her alone. Delisha stood by the window looking at the backyard and opened her cell phone to call Vijay. It was almost evening, but her belongings had not been delivered and for several times being contacted, the man did not answer his phone. To hold back her irritation, she lit a cigarette and took a sip.

From the window, Delisha saw that there was a small gate in the backyard. She watches Rani running towards the gate. There is a woman outside the fence. A quite beautiful Indian woman, wearing a sumptuous saree, a stripe of color at the part of her hair indicates that she is married. The woman was shrouded in a dark aura and the appearance of a python with dark scales appeared in Delisha's eyes.

{{The reticulated python, also known as the northeast python is a large snake with the longest body size among other snakes. Its largest size can exceed 8.5 meters and is the longest snake in the world. Pythons including snakes that live long, up to more than 25 years. The prey is paralyzed by wrapping it tightly (constricting) until it breaks its bones and dies. After death, the prey is swallowed whole, starting from the head.}}

The woman was talking to Rani and the little girl seemed to be shaking her head in agreement. The woman handed something over, after that Rani ran again into the courtyard and the woman left.

Delisha took a sip in her cigarette then exhaled strongly. Her lips formed a wry smile. This time she had to investigate what the little girl was doing.

The saree she was wearing made her took small steps to walk. She looks for Rani in the backyard and finds the child near the garbage burner. She approached slowly and watched what she was doing. Rani threw away what appeared to be a letter to the burning fire, then smiled cheerfully as she opened the bag of candy that the woman had handed over at the back gate.

"Oh look, who is this who was caught cheating," Delisha scoffed and seeing Rani startled and nervously made her convinced Rani was doing something wrong.

"N-none of your business!" Rani stuttered.

"Hoh, yes ..., let's see what Raj says if he finds out what you did ...." Delisha said with an evil grin. She picked up her cell phone as if she was about to contact Raj, the little girl's crush.

"Ah, no! Don't!" Rani clasped her hands and worshiped at Delisha's feet. "Please, don't tell Raj! Here! Here! Just take the candy, all for you."

"I don't know ... I don't think that's enough for cursing me stupid ...," Delisha reminded her insolence.

Rani pulls Delisha's sari. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" she whined. "Please don't tell Raj. We are on the same side. Don't let Raj find out about this. It's for Raj's sake."

Delisha frowned. Small child, but speaks like an adult. "In that case, tell me everything, then I decide whether to tell Raj or not," said Delisha triumphantly. The little girl couldn't mess with her anymore.

Reluctantly Rani told the story. "Anjali used to ask me to deliver letters to Raj and give me sweets in return, but I didn't want to do it."

"Why?"

Sobbing, Rani replied, "Because Anjali is Raj's ex-boyfriend. Anjali left Raj to marry someone else because Raj is poor. Now that Raj is rich, that b***h wants to come back to Raj and I don't want that to happen ... huaaaa. "

Delisha's face twisted wryly at the girl's cry. Did she call the woman a b***h? Still a very young age, but already knows the rant. Delisha shook her head. But then she grinned again with an evil grin. Finally, she learned about the dark side of the man named Imdad Hussain. A broken-hearted Playboy!

Delisha throws all the sweets Rani got from Imdad's ex-girlfriend in the garbage burner. "That stuff can damage your teeth!" She said sharply to the little girl. "You don't want to be side by side with Raj while your teeth are missing, right?" Rani was terrified at the thought. She will look really ugly on their wedding photos.

They sat on the back porch steps. Delisha handed her a box of mouth freshener candies. She uses the candy when she's finished smoking. "Just eat this candy instead," she said. "After all, if you accept goods from someone who once betrayed Raj, you are the same as conspiring with that traitor. No man likes a traitor."

Rani got even more scared. This woman cannot be taken lightly. This woman could destroy her at any time, so what could she do other than coalesce with this woman?

"Marianne-ji, please don't let Raj find out about this. I don't want him to hate me," she whined.

Delisha laughed in satisfaction. Huahaha, little girl, now you know who you're dealing with. "From now on, you must obey all my words!" she threatened and the little girl shook her head in resignation.

Delisha stood up and fixed her clothes. Draped her saree over her shoulders and her hair dangled freely in the air as she turns around, revealing her shoulders exposed with a cute knotted thong. She tidies up her hair with her fingers and smiles sweetly at Rani who looks at her in awe.

It wasn't just Rani who stared in awe at the young woman. Imdad Hussain, who saw her from inside the house, froze on the spot. If there is the loveliest view apart from the Kashmir Himalayan Mountains, that is it. A perfectly curved woman in a pink sari as beautiful as a flower bed in a mountain valley. Her hair, flowing beautifully, flowing like cashmere, caressing his mighty soul. The clink of the bracelet like dew, falling from the edge of the leaves, made his heart warms up.

"Very very beautiful," muttered Imdad with hanging steps. If in skimpy clothes the woman looks charming, in dress modestly the attraction is even stronger. The Himalayas will shake violently by her charms.

"Raj!" exclaimed Rani happily. She hurried over to Imdad and jumped into the man's arms. It was unusual for Imdad to come home from work this afternoon. Usually, he comes home late at night, sometimes he doesn't even come home.

"Raj!" said Delisha with a smile on her lips and stepped towards Imdad. She wanted so badly to intimidate him.

Seeing her smile, Imdad felt his heartbeat getting stronger. The woman welcomed him in such a way as if he had arrived at his dream home. Fortunately, Rani was in his arms, otherwise, he would have embraced her and carried her to his bedroom.

"Mr. Vijay isn't coming. He can't even be reached. So, Raj, what to do?" asked Delisha. She spread the saree she was wearing and twirled herself in front of Imdad. "This outfit is very beautiful, but I have a hard time moving and to be honest, the material is a bit hot and makes my skin itchy." She curled her body and scratched her open shoulder.

Imdad was about to tell her to take off all the clothes by then, but there is Rani nearby. He had to keep his mouth shut. Young children should not hear such words.

"Oh, hmm ... yes, I also tried to reach him, that's why I came home with the company car. I think we should go to his house. Vijay is not usually like this," said Imdad with a hoarse throat.

Delisha was silent for a moment, then agreed to Imdad's plan. They both headed for the black SUV in the front yard. They sat side by side in the front seat. Delisha fixed the sari on her shoulders again because the coli she was wearing exposed her neck area and part of her chest, she was a little uncomfortable.

Imdad glanced over and saw the kiss mark he made was still visible on the crook of Delisha's neck. He looked for something in his dashboard drawer. "Here, put this on," he said as he moved about to embrace Delisha, making her body stiff in place. Imdad put a pin to attach the sari on Delisha's shoulder to the back of her colt. "At this rate, the saree won't fall again," muttered Imdad as he straightened himself and then faced straight ahead, refraining from turning to the woman beside him, because their faces were both flushed.

Hang in there, Imdad. He muttered to himself. He hurried to drive the car and focused on their goal, which is to Vijay's apartment, preventing him from thinking about other things, such as pulling over the car and making out with the woman next to him. Maybe they would never reach Vijay's residence if they did.

Delisha thought of the black creature that attacked her. Anxiety starts to haunt her. Did something happen to Mr. Vijay? She hopes not. Arriving at Parnapuri, Delisha saw the ghost of a woman dressed in broken-white sweater standing pitifully in front of a door that might have been her residence when she was alive. The woman's ghost glanced at her then returned to muttering to herself about her daughter not coming home. Delisha regretted not having her sunglasses.

Imdad knocked on Vijay's apartment door several times but got no answer. He then called the man's number, but it was not active. "Where is Vijay actually?" muttered Imdad anxiously. His forehead creased deeply and his arms rested against the wall as he considered the possibilities.

Delisha pretended to call and stood near the ghost of the woman in the broken-white sweater. "Do something for me, then I'll try to find information about your daughter."

The woman's ghost looked up at her. "Look inside Vijay Sharma's apartment!" said Delisha. In an instant, she disappeared for a few seconds, then appeared again in front of Delisha. "He's dying." She told Delisha what she saw. Delisha gasped and hurried over to Imdad.

"Call an ambulance and open this door ASAP!" exclaimed Delisha frantically. Imdad was a little surprised to hear that but immediately did as she said.

The apartment manager came with the main key and opened Vijay's apartment. The stench of sewage mixed with the sour smell coming from the apartment. Vijay's body lies on the floor of the living room. The liquid vomit mixed with a blackish green solid with worms and maggots wriggling, scattered on the floor.

Imdad held his breath while Delisha and the apartment manager vomited in the corridor.
