CH-24

 

SHIPRA POV

 

Gulab Jamun was too big too and it did not fit in my mouth completely and suddenly I got second shocked when his lips touch mine (a little bit sadly)

 

And my mind froze for some time. 

By then I came to my senses I noticed he took a small bite from it and again whispered in my ear "Rani Sa Next time if you roll your eyes on me I have to eat you instead of this Gulab Jamun. Ok?"

 

I nodded and put my palm on my mouth and chewed it and thank my god, he took a small bite and I got to eat rest. 

 

Gosh, why are these Rich people so Kanjus (miser)? They want their share in everything. 

 

Again my chain of thought broke when he cleaned my lips with a napkin. And asked, " So Rani Sa does not like to share the food hmmm?"

 

I look at him with a sheepish smile and said "I never share Gulab Jamun with anyone,"

 

He smiles and shakes his head.

 

Well, I can't help but be possessive about my food.

I was again about to clear the table but again he said "leave it."

 

And I know I don’t have any other option than this so I nodded and we went the First time to sit in the living room. 

 

What a change (note to sarcasm)

 

We sat and I remembered about the wedding dress. I said, "Hukum, I have designed our wedding outfits. I so wanted to match with you so did color coordination, I hope you ok with that? " I ask with hopeful eyes.

 

I was hell nervous what If he says no or gets mad at me as I did without even asking him.

 

He smiled and said "I am ok as long as you are happy. And I am sure you must have done a wonderful job." He spoke holding my hand.

 

Hearing him I smile and remember the office incident so I asked "Hukum, How come you know my boss? And why was he looking scared when he saw you?" 

 

Before he could say I started feeling a little dizzy and nausea so I ran towards the bathroom and puked my tummy out. 

 

He came running behind me and started patting my back and giving me water. 

 

"What happened to you suddenly? You were all ok just now," he asked.

 

"I don’t know, maybe I ate something wrong by mistake," I said while resting on the wall.

 

He said "let me call the doctor" but before I said no I felt a wave of nausea and I again puked my tummy out. 

 

Now, something is wrong. He again gave me water and I was drinking. Meanwhile, he called Samir Bhai and asked Him to call the doctor and come up. 

 

He cut the call and suddenly he also started puking.

 

I held his back and thought what is happening? 

 

I gave him water but now my whole body has given up and I felt my eyelashes heavy, I tried to keep my eyes open but finally, the darkness consumed me.

 

SHIVAY POV

 

She has been throwing up, again and again, god what is happening? 

 

She was just fine. And not only her, but I have also even started puking. There must be something wrong. 

 

Suddenly she collapsed and my whole body was shaken up seeing her like that.

 

I came out of my shock when I heard a knock on the door. I opened the door and saw Samir and asked "where is the bloody doctor?"

 

"Hukum he will be here in 15 minutes" I nod, pick Shipra up and go to the room, and lay on the bed.

 

Next, I called Daai Jan and told her everything happened. 

She was surprised to know I am in the city but she composed and said she will be here as soon as possible and I asked her to inform Shipra”s family to which she agreed. 

 

After some time a doctor came and checked Shipra and meanwhile I felt a wave of nausea again and I ran towards the bathroom to puke.

 

Doctor asked me what had happened and I described the entire scene, He instantly nodded and called a few people and asked them to bring some other medicine and some equipment and started taking out everything from her stomach and making her puke as much as possible and his assistant did the same with me too.

 

I was completely not getting what was happening.

 

He gave us some injections on both of us after some time he said we both are out of danger and that caught my attention and I asked: "what do u mean by out of danger?"

 

"Sir, mam has consumed one kind of passion which leads to death in two hours but I guess you have reacted very fast and she got medicated on time. Even the same is with you but her intensity was much more than you."

 

I thought for a minute, if that poison lead to death that means it’s a fast poison, that means she must have got in her body half an hour back, that means Food,

 

Our food has that poison. 

 

I looked at Samir and asked him to take the whole leftover food to the lab for testing and give me the result as soon as possible, and you what else needs to be done, he nodded and ran outside.

 

And told the doctor to keep this thing secret.

 

After some time the whole family is here, Dada Hukum Dai Jan, Dadu Sa, and Shipra’s parents.

 

I could see worry lines on their faces and I can’t make them more worried than they already are. 

 

Dada Hukum: Shivay how did this happen?

 

"Nothing dada hukum, it's just food poisoning, we ordered food from outside and I guess that went wrong, nothing to worry about ''. I lie perfectly

 

Dada Hukum fumed in anger and asked "tell me from where have you ordered the food? I will make them pay for serving spoiled food."

 

I touched his hand and said, "I already took care of that so don’t worry about it".
