5 # Why is she tensed?
1313 Words
Everything is going on silently. Utsav calls her often. So, she is pleased.
Talking with Arnav makes her heart calm. Still, her doubt isn't clear regarding Utsav and Sahaj.
Very next day...
"Let's go shopping," Sanjh proposed Ovi and she nodded with a short smile. Arnav was still in trauma. He also joined them, as Ovi forced him.
"Why didn't you call Utsav?" Arnav asked sarcastically.
He never talked to her this way before. She stopped walking and glared at him with puzzling eyes. He made her feel awkward.
"Arnav, have you any problem?" She asked worriedly. She observed him from the last two days. He was behaving unusually.
"Everything is fine, let's go," Arnav replied and excited the entrance of the house.
Abruptly, Ovi's phone buzzed, sliding up the screen, she received the call.
"Hello," She chirped happily as the call was from Utsav.
"Hey, Love," He retorted.
"Yeah, where are you lost?" She asked stepping outside the mansion.
"I was busy. By the way, Sahaj is here, but I wish you come alone, before Sanjh, you should meet him. Laterally, he will come to meet Sanjh," Utsav contended but somehow it was not making sense to Ovi. Her mind picked up the race of thoughts.
"I want to meet him, right now?" She affirmed with a worrying manifestation on her beautiful face. Arnav was glancing at her from the far but it seemed clear that she is tensed for something.
"Okay, you can come," Utsav replied and gave her an address of the motel, where they stayed.
"I hope, just everything is fine," Ovi closed her eyes and pray to God. Her heart was thumping rapidly.
She gulped and proclaimed, "Umm, Sanjh and Arnav, will you please wait for me at the mall? I have some important work regarding the office, I will join you there after half an hour?"
"Any problem? You looked reckoning something, and you are worried," Arnav read her facial expressions and asked her with concern.
"Nothing like that, everything is fine, trust me," She tried to smile with her best effort and whirled rapidly to another car.
There were a lot of different cars, the entire cars collection was the hobby of Ovi. She purchased every new coming car from the highest level.
Unlocking her Lamborghini, she drove fast and exited the mansion without listening to Sanjh and Arnav.
Sanjh and Arnav went to the mall and started looking for dresses. Sanjh selected a lot of dresses for her. Arnav chuckled at her, seeing her shopping addiction. He teased, "I think you need to marry a multi-billionaire because none can afford your shopping cost."
"My Dii is enough for it," She said proudly.
"Let's see dresses for her, she will come and chose from them," Sanjh offered an idea, which is extremely liked by Arnav.
"Let's see," Sanjh asked the staff to show some other dresses. Arnav selected a few dresses for her and they became free. It has been passed two hours, she didn't come yet.
He called her, but her phone was switched off.
"She must be in a meeting, you know her, how much workaholic, she is," Sanjh tried to soothe Arnav's racing heart. But now, Arnav was feeling that something is erroneous with Ovi.
"I think, the size is perfect for Di, we should buy these all for her and check on the makeup and jewellery," Sanjh pouted and Arnav nodded agreeing with her. His mind was constantly working for Ovi only.
They went to the other stores and Sanjh started looking for beauty products.
Arnav called again and again but the phone was sounding switch off. He called at her office, Suzie her assistant picked up the call, "Hello, how are you, sir?"
Suzie is Ovi's assistant and she knows Arnav very well. She also in contact with Arnav, so her name on her phone's screen makes a smile on her face.
"Is Ovi there?" He asked directly.
"No, sir, she already cancelled all the meetings for today and she is on leave for today," Suzie replied honestly.
He hung up the call immediately hearing her. He knows Ovi that she will not share anything until she feels that the situation is not in her hand.
He didn't share anything to Sanjh and Sanjh was enjoying the shopping. After this store, they went to the jewellery section. She was looking for jewellery for her and Sanjh.
Arnav's gaze was still on the entrance of the mall, as he was standing in the corridor. Suddenly, he found Ovi stepped inside the mall.
He rapidly came down to her and stood in front of her. He asked directly, "Where were you?"
"I... I was... I... in the office," Ovi stole her gaze from his gaze.
"You're lying to me. None knows you better than me. You weren't in the office, I have called Suzie," Arnav almost shouted on her.
"I have some other works so I had to go and it's done. Let's go," Ovi bluntly replied and moved ahead by side.
He followed her and guided them to the jewellery section. Sanjh was so pleased to see her.
"Dii, you are so late," She hugged Ovi and she caressed Sanjh's back with a light smile.
"Yeah, let's do," Ovi replied and started looking for jewellery.
Arnav observed Ovi, it was clear that she cried, but why? Her eyes were looking red and her cheeks were looking like someone pinched on them and they turned red. Her entire body was not matching up with her facial expressions.
"Something is wrong, but what?" He thought but he was clueless regarding that.
Seeing Sanjh, Ovi's eyes formed tears, she wiped off them immediately. It was not hidden from Arnav, he saw her tears. He knows that she won't tell her in front of Sanjh. He needs to wait.
He went to left and looked for something. His gaze fell on the platinum couple's band, he loves it at a glance and he purchased it.
"No matter, you will be mine or not, but I will keep it for you," He thought and kept the box of the ring in his pocket.
Sanjh's phone buzzed, he hoisted it up to the ear and chirped, "Hey, Dad, how are you?"
"It's me, mom. Where is Ovi? Her phone is switched off," Reeva asked directly without asking about Sanjh. It happened the first time. She felt that mom must face any difficulty. She never does like that.
"She is here," Sanjh handed her phone to Ovi.
"Yes, mom," Ovi tried her best to hide her pain.
"Dad and I want you both in India, as soon as possible," Reeva said orderly.
"Okay, we will be there by tomorrow," Ovi replied and sighed hanging up the call.
"Something, umm... tension?" Sanjh asked.
"No, they want us in India by tomorrow," Ovi replied and handed her phone back to her.
"Where is your phone, Di?" Sanjh asked worriedly.
"It was broken, mistakenly fell on the ground and it was broken," Ovi explained her and started looking for the jewellery.
Purchasing some items, they came out. Ovi bought a newly released iPhone for her and also bought some accessories.
Meanwhile, Arnav was observing her. She is not Ovi, who was always strict and strong. She seems to be outrageous, he was not like that.
She tried her best to hide her expression but she flunked.
After coming back home, she went to the office for dividing her work as she is leaving instantly. Arnav forced her and went there with her.
He asked often but she didn't share anything with him. She always shares. He was feeling like she is ignoring him and started hiding things from him.
It hurts a lot to him, he thought, "A new person can easily replace the old person's place."
He sighed with pain.
