baby” He hugged her daughter.

It is a reputed corporate school in the heart of the city-

“We will go in my car” Said Honey.

“No I will take you in my car” Said Rohit.

“I told you in advance that we both would go for shopping” Honey reminded him.

“But I have arranged your birth day party followed by lunch”

“What is this? My dad has arranged my birth day party tonight and I have invited all of our class mates. But why have you arranged another party Rohit?” She was annoyed and said.

“I just wanted to give you a surprise. I have also invited all our class mates. Please oblige and accept my treat Honey” He requested her with warm love and affection.

“Okay, but on one condition”

“What is that? Please tell me”

“I will tell you in the evening Rohit”

“You mean in your birthday party”

“No after the party”

On invitation by Master Rohit all their classmates assembled in mini conference hall in Hotel Green Park.

Miss. Honey cut her birth day cake in the presence of her classmates, amidst their birthday greetings and cheers, followed by lunch.

Master Rohit presented her three packets.

“Why three gifts? Why do you spend huge amounts? Where do you get the money Rohit?”

“It is top secret and you may open them at your home and then tell me whether you like them or not. And you need not worry I didn’t steal money, and I have taken permission from my mum.”

“Thank you Rohit”

Later she was busy in receiving greetings from her other classmates.

“Why have you presented three gifts to her Rohit?” In the meanwhile one of his colleagues, by name Mr. Peter asked him.

Rohit did not answer him.

“Are you in love with her?” Peter couldn’t withhold his suspicion anymore and asked Rohit seriously.

“I don’t know”

“Did she express it at least?”

“No”

“Are you mad after her?”

“Why are you asking me about my personal things?”

“Because she is mine and you are after running her”

“Did she express her love to you?”

“Why should I tell you?”

“It’s okay, but anyway you please don’t question me here after”

“Then why have you arranged her birthday party so grand spending huge amounts and also presented her three gifts? By the by why have you presented three gifts to her? What are they?”

“Sorry I need not tell you”

“Then I complain her father about you; and also I inform your mother regarding spending money lavishly for the party”

“Go to hell and I don’t care”

It was 1600hrs and the party was over with lunch followed by evening’s tea and snacks.

All the invitees left the Hotel. Rohit dropped Honey at their convent. And at first he kept his three gifts and later he put that of others in her car. He stealthily picked up one gift and kept in his pocket.

Honey tried to open the gift packs presented by Rohit out of curiosity.

“No, not here Honey. Please go home and open”

“What do the gift packs contain?”

“It is a surprise; and you see them secretly and tell me, whether you like them or not”

“I t’s okay, are you not coming to my home in the night for party?”

“What is the occasion?”

“To my birthday party”

“No, I am not coming as your birthday party is already over”

“But, my dad has arranged everything and I have invited not only our classmates but also all our schoolmates for dinner and how can I cancel now?” She expressed her delicate position.

“And why should you call the jokers, I mean our classmates again to your home. They not only eat food but also eat your brain and kill your precious time; and you better spend your time with your parents” He commented them.

But she was silent for a while.

He could observe her feelings. She was out of moods.

“I am sorry” He tried to cajole her.

She didn’t speak anything.

“I said sorry, but still you are out of your moods; and I don’t understand why?”

“Then tell me whether you are attending party in the night or not?” She again asked him.

“Okay I will come”

“Promise”

“Sure and I will definitely come and extend my wishes once again to you Honey” He put his hand on her head as a token of promise.

She thanked him for hosting her birthday celebration amidst all her classmates in a grand way.

Later, he bid good bye to her.

She asked her driver to sit in the front seat by her side, and she drove the car speedily and jubilantly towards her home.

Though her driver requested her that he would be blamed by her dad, she nodded her head carelessly.

Rohit waited till she left the school and later he drove his car.

Enroot, he observed Peter taking brown sugar along with the drug edicts.

On seeing Rohit, Peter pointed out his index finger and warned him.

“You scoundrel, how dare are you to challenge me? I will kill you bastard” Rohit not only raised his voice, but also showed in action by driving the car over him.

Peter jumped and escaped narrowly and saved his life, and Rohit again drove back his vehicle speedily to run over him. But peter ran towards pavement.

“You scoundrel, I will certainly take revenge against you”

“Bloody idiot you can’t escape from me; and get ready for your dooms day” Rohit shouted and showed his index finger against Peter and drove his car rashly towards his home.

 

Chapter: 4

 

Honey on her return from the birth day party hosted by Rohit, she straight went to her bed room and bolted the door and opened the gift packs.

In the meanwhile the ACP’s bungalow was fully decorated with dazzling lights and of course with good music system on the eve of the birth day of his only daughter Miss. Honey.

The housemaid knocked her bed room door to prepare her for the birth day party.

But there was no response from Honey. She also called Honey number of times,

The housemaid became panicky and informed the situation to the ACP.

Within no time, the ACP rushed to his home and broke open the door and found Honey sitting at the corner of the wash room and she was seen weeping for a long time.

The housemaid observed her and understood that the innocent girl was matured and found that there was lot of bleeding. She informed her master in brief and asked him to stay back and that she would attend to her.

Mr. Anirudh felt for the first time his lapse for not marrying another lady soon his wife deserted him and his daughter. Had there been a step mother to Honey, at least she would have definitely taken care of her.

It was already 1700hrs; the event manager Miss. Amrin was busy in decorating the bungalow with flowers and creepers; and making seating arrangements for the guests who were likely to attend the party. And then the final part was to prepare Honey with bridal wear; and to take her to the ceremonial chair for taking the blessings of the elders and wishes of her classmates.

But in the meanwhile Mr. Anirudh called her inside and requested her to cancel the party, and that he would inform the next date to host the ceremony of adulthood of her daughter; and he paid service charges for her and her staff and also paid the miscellaneous expenses.

The event manager along with her staff and decorative materials left his bungalow in her pick up van.

He then instructed the housemaid to inform to all the guests, whoever comes to the bungalow to attend the function, as it was cancelled as both the father and the daughter left for abroad on an important task.

He then called his probationary trainee officer, Miss. Jasmine to his bungalow at once.

 

Chapter: 5

 

It was 1100hrs in the night; Master Rohit came out from his bed room. Lights were off in the bed room of his mum. He confirmed nobody, either his mum or his grandpa or the servant maid was awake.

He then took out his bicycle from the garage and came to the road point.

 

******************

 

“Are you mad or what? Why have you taken so much risk and come in the dead of the night Rohit?” Honey was annoyed by his visit and said.

“I didn’t do anything wrong Honey. But as per my promise I have come only to greet you” Rohit replied coolly.

“Do you know what is the time know?

“It is only 1155hrs and still the date is not changed you know. By the way happy birth day Honey” He gave her a chocolate.

“Thanks, but if anybody observes you what will happen?” She expressed her doubt.

“They are not devils to move in the nights disturbing their night sleep”

“My dad is a top cop you know; and further we have tight security at our home. If you are caught they will suspect you as miscreant and keep you behind bars”

“But I am not a thief and then why should I fear cops? Further I hope you are here to protect me”

“Why should I become a scapegoat for your hasty step? Moreover is it not indecent to come to my bed room at this time? And if anybody ask me about your presence in my company at this odd hours, I may not have reasonable answer and then I must bluff that I have no knowledge about you and your presence” She didn’t want to take the risk and said.

“You selfish” He tapped on her buttock.

“Idiot, why do you touch me?” She became furious.

“Why?”

“Shut up”

“Are you really serious?”

“Yes I am”

“Then sorry”

She was silent.

“Hello, I am asking you again”

“Shut up. When a girl is sitting on a mat at the corner of the hall as per Indian customs and traditions also you couldn’t guess means really you are a fool”

“I am not a fool”

“Then tell me why am I asked to sit here?”

“Unless you tell how do I know? Anyway is your birth day party gone off well? Do you feel about my absence?”

“No it is cancelled”

“Why?”

“Because of you only”

“What?”

“Yes, it is because what you wished that has happened to me”

“I couldn’t understand what you are saying”

“You tube light; recollect your presentations”

“Yes of course I do”

“Then repeat what are they?”

“Half sari, sari, and bridal wear”

“What do you mean by them?”

“When you attain puberty to wear half sari; and for betrothal full sari; and the rest of course for your marriage”

“Idiot still you didn’t catch, unless the first happen, how cum the rest succeed the first?

“Really! Have you attained puberty?”

“That is the reason why I have called you brainless fellow”

“I understood on seeing you at once baby, when you are keeping a copper pot full of drinking water, sitting on mat in the corner of the hall as per our customs and traditions like an untouchable you know. But I waited to know from your mouth only”

“What! You know everything, but you pretend to be innocent; and those who under estimate you are really fools”

“Congrats though I tell you belatedly”

“It is not the time to wish”

“Then, when can I wish you?”

“On the 5th day”

“Why are specifically telling fifth day?” He asked her quite innocently.

“As you know it is our custom and tradition that I must have ceremonial bath on the fifth day”

“And then on which date your function is scheduled?”

“On the same day after the bath and I will wear half sari. I think my dad is planning for a big ceremony on that day and you must also attend”

“It is a ladies function and you better ask your mum to invite my mum”

“My mum deserted me when I was three years old”
