RAYA FF - Eternal Shades Of Love Part 14

Recap :

  


Afterwards We lay together talking, my back against his chest, his hands playing lazily over me. A bond had been formed between us now. He kissed the top of my tousled head, saying as he did so. Then slept ..spent . I got up  again . To see him looking at  me with love. I pulled closer for a kiss.

Then again we sought love's perfection in each other's arms, our souls as well as our bodies blending until there was nothing for either of us ,but  nothing  other than our love in every minute

 PART 14




 PART A


 The sun rose late this time of year, and when I  opened  my  eyes and

checked the clock on the table beside the bed, it was  half past Six. The room was

still quite dim, so I slipped out of bed, put on my night dress, and walked to the

window to open the curtains.



My  room faced east, and so I took a moment at the window to enjoy the sunrise.

Most of the sky still held the purple tones of night, but along the horizon the sun

was painting a brilliant stripe of orange and pink.And yellow. Right there on the very bottom, yellow was beginning to creep into view.

The slanted light of dawn, I thought.



Behind me , I  heard  Ram  rustling in the bed, and I turned around. He

appeared to be blinking himself awake.

“It’s morning,” I said, smiling.

He yawned. “Almost.”

“ not Almost Its  morning ,”  I said  and turned back to the window.

I heard him yawn again, then make his way out of bed. He came up behind  me,

wrapping his arms around me and letting his chin settle on the top of my head. “It’s

a beautiful sunrise,” he murmured.



“It’s already changed so much, just in the few moments I’ve been watching it.”

I felt him nod.



 He turned me around.

He looked at me for several moments, as if he wasn’t quite sure what to say. “I love

you,” he finally said, and he kissed me back, softly, and filled with love, on my

lips.



“Let’s go outside,” he said suddenly.

“What?”

He let go of me and went back toward the bed, to the pile of his clothing, lying

rumpled on the floor. “Go on,” he said. “Get dressed. fast ”

I allowed myself a moment to admire his naked back, then managed to snap

myself to attention. “Why do you want to go outside?” I asked, but I was

already looking for something to wear.





“ I want to show you something .” He flashed  at  me a grin.

His enthusiasm was infectious, and I found myself practically racing to pull

on all of my clothing. Before I could  throw my dupatha around my neck He grabbed my hand, and we took off running through the house, stifling laughter all the way. A

 maids were up and about,  cleaning  the  gardens and house  .

but  wejust scooted on by, tripping along until  wereached thefront door and the fresh air of morning.



I  took a deep breath. The air felt wonderful, crisp and clean, with just

enough cool moisture to make my feel dewy and new.

Where are we going   I asked

“ Have patience”  Ram he said. He leaned down and dropped a kiss on my ear. “I   taking  you to create  more marvellous memories ,,,,,, like last night.”

My ’s cheeks turned hot, even though I rather thought I ought to be

beyond blushing by now.



 But where.. I asked

 He continued to pulled me along the  farm  and through the  mango orchards

“I’ll going to  show you something first and then teach you something  ,” he said.

What  I asked him

I am not going  to have evil ways with you   he winked

I swatted him on the shoulder.

“Really,” he went on, ““A man does like to feel that he is in charge,” he murmured.

I blushed .. now please tell me what  is it

 You know what you can be “Annoyingly……. He did complete.

I asked what Annoyingly ???

He kissed my nose. “Annoyingly adorable.”



He suddenly  stopped . I looked up around … Then I saw !!!



It was small pond ..   surrounded by  beautiful foliage  . The pond had   flock of geese swimming  in it



It was  wonderful  , I pushed away the ample fluffy branches that came my way, trying not to hurt any of the big flat leaves, or neat, perfect mango flowers that covered each branch. The shadows of the trees still preserved the moist humidity, intensified by the smell of wet moss and smell fresh morning dew.I loved this deep moist air, saturated with oxygen and filled with freshness.

As I was moving through the trees to reach the pond. I saw a  flock plovers by the pond  as if gossiping with their geese friends in the pond sharing  . I didn’t want to disturb the serenity of the moment It was Uthopian to say the least.The vivid ruby and tangerine streaks that so often caressed the blue brow of the sky were sleeping, hidden behind the heavy mists. High up in the treetops, the leaves swayed, but on the ground, the grass was silent, limp and unmoving. The sun set and the earth waited.  Then, slowly at first, but with ever increasing intensity, a small glimmer appeared on the glossy leaves. Through the whispering blades of grass, a brilliant fire arose from the depths turning the lingering water droplets into liquid silver that dripped from expectant leaves and flowed gurgling into shallow puddles, bathing the young trees with the succulent taste of a new day.

And the golden morning sun rose. Higher up into sky

 I looked up to see Ram  watching me closely smiling  at me.

I turned to him, He opened his arms . Went into it was most naturally thing to do for me    . I was at peace… there was nothing  more beautiful than  the this moment of time. In this man arms   I was home I was safe

We sat down by the side of pond watching the plovers and geese interact. Slowly  as sun rose birds flew away …..  geese reached the far end of the pond looking  for the shade escaping the harshness of the sun rays….

The pond was almost the  a size of a small lake …. The geese  were now far way  otherside of  pond. The plover no longer in sight

 It was over… I thought I  looked at Ram asked shall we go.. He said wait,  I told I wanted to teach you something  what I asked ….

 He got  up  and pulled  me up  the  and said  I am going to teach how to skip a stone what ? I asked what skip.

 Stone he said  started  walking towards the  bending down started looking for something with great concentration. Picked a stone looked at  from all sides  and weighed it  , then  put it in his pocket. Then continued the same  with more stones. Slowly there was big bulge in  his pocket.

Then  he  came  , with big naughty smile crinkling  the corners of his mouth.   Took hold of my hand  pulled me along, To the  shore the pond, so yanked her hand. I asked what is this now…. He chuckled and ambled over to my side.   Do you   know Skipping of stone. I replied  yes of course I know that  ( I have seen it in enough movie’s to know what he was talking about  … it sure looked easy  after all it was just throwing a stone  across the water how hard can it be) He continued “First you must find the right sort ofrock.”

“I know that,” I said promptly.

“It must be flat, not too heavy—”

“I know that, too.”

“I am beginning to understand how irritating  it  is going to be to teach you.”

I gave him a dirty look.

He only laughed. “Here,” he said, reaching down to pick up a small stone. “This

one is good. You need to hold it like this.” He demonstrated, then put it in my

palm, curving my fingers around it. “Your wrist should be bent just so, and…”

I looked up. “And what?” His words had trailed off, and he was gazing out over

the pond.

“Nothing,” he said with a little shake of his head. “Just the way the sun is hitting

the water.”



I turned to the pond, and then turned back to him. The reflection of the sun

on the water was beautiful, but I found I preferred watching him. He was

looking at the pond so intently, so thoughtfully, as if he were memorizing every last

ripple of light. I knew he had a reputation for careless charm. Everyone said he

was so funny, so droll, but now, when he was so pensive… I fell  in love with  him all over again    , I don’t  know if  there ever was a day I was  not  in love with him .

Ram I called he shook his head. Then said this  was my favourite pastime when we went to  our village near  Amritsar. Papa taught me, I was just think about papa how happy he would have been to meet you . When Venu anna told me about this  pond here I wanted bring you.

I was  happy .. that   Ram wanted to share   his  important childhood memories with me. He  hasnever talked about his papa much.  But I knew , for my Conversations with neha   … Ram adored his father lot.  For him his papa was his hero. I  came  close to him and laid my head against his  shoulder and hugged his arm. Ram  said Iam sure he looking  down at  me saying  Well done   beta. He smiled at me . His happiness was evident He kissed softly on my nose

Ram then  immediately picked up a stone and sent it skipping across the lake..  It  bounced across the water sailed to the other end of the pond

“How did you do that?” l demanded.

Try  he stretched across a stone for me

l picked up a stone and tried to skip it. It sank instantly.

Rather like a stone.



Ram gave me a lofty grin, picked up another stone, and let it fly.

“One…two…three…four…five!”she crowed, counting the skips. “My record is

six.”

“Six?” l asked, feeling very outdone. “Really?”

Ram shrugged, looking for another stone. “My  name  Kapoor … Ram Kapoor  yeh to  mera daiyan  hath ka khel hai  He found a nice flat rock and picked it up.

“I’ve had a great deal of time to practice.”

“Before I could say Show me how you—”

Ram  had already sent it flying across the water. “One…two…three…four.”

he let out an irritated snort. “I knew that rock was too heavy.”

I watched in disbelief as he  skipped three more stones across the

lake, each of them bouncing five times. “I do believe I am jealous,”I finally

announced.

 “Of me?” he asked

“You don’t even look  like man who would touch a stone on the ground, much less skip itacross the lake.”

“Now, now, Priya ,”  Ram, smiling all the while. “Let’s not be mean.”

I feigned a scowl. I can do it  you saw

“So you can,”  I said, duly impressed. “Will you show me how to do it?”

“No” Ram gave me an arch look. “I like having something I’m so much better at

than you.”

But you promised I said .

Yeah Did!!but decided I wont . After  the first attempt of yours I don’t think you can .also



I stuck out my tongue. “You say you can do six.”

“I can,” Ram insisted.

“I haven’t seen it.” I said walked over to a large rock and patted the top, making sure it was dry before I sat down. “I have all morning. And afternoon, too, now

that I think on it.”

You know what !, you  have  to give me whatever I ask if  I the stone skip 6 times

We will see …. I said

Ram  then growled, then stomped off to find more stones. he did a five,

then a four, then two more fives.

“I’m waiting!” I called.

“I’m running out of good stones!”

“A likely excuse.” I  looked down at my fingernails to see if I’d got any

dirt under them when he’d picked up his one pathetic stone. When I looked

back up, a stone was sailing across the surface.

One…two…three…four…five…six!

“You did it!”I  exclaimed, jumping to my  feet. “Six!”

“Lady ,” Ram said, bowing elegantly. He looked impossibly handsome in the

mid-morning sunshine.



Now  for my prize  He  looked at  me

I gazed at his handsome face, his  eyes glittering with merriment, and my  heart literally skipped a beat.

“Are you going to kiss me?” I was breathless with anticipation.

“Most definitely, madamji.”

“I really wish you wouldn’t.”

“Now that, my dear, has to be the biggest lie you’ve ever told.”

He narrowed the distance between  us, initiating a torrid kiss that was rough and wild and thrilling.



 …….. and that  is how my day  started.. A morning  so beautiful it was so special. The morning  when  the sun was brighter , birds chirped happily, trees swayed in harmony. Amorning I never will ever forget.  I know this was how ,Ram will make my every morning PERFECT



 We spent the next two day  like this…. Walking talking, playing, eating  when we wanted to and making  love sometime  with need so sweet sometimes it about tears to  my eyes. It was a perfect every possible way ..  I  know my past  nightmare will catch up with me… but I also knew Ram  will  be there for me to hold , to support  me , to be my strength ,  to love me.





These two days  I realised the something  about love and friendship  and RAM





LOVE :  Is laughing  with him when the sun goesdown, then lying inhis arms till it come up again. To have someone to say you are beautiful the way you are, it is being scared and excited at  same time



Friendship : Is the known someone will always be there for you when the going gets tough. It isn’t about whom you long but who came and never left yourside.



When these two combine

Happiness  is formed





And I was  happy !!!!



PART B :



 RAJATH KAPUR

 PANVEL, MUMBAI



The  man  was  driving down in  his new premium whiteAmbassador.He was Ashok Kapoor.He entered  his  mansion  .It was a  built by his father in law, on the land given to him by Britishers for Dam  he helped in building the Gadeshwar Dam .It was huge …building remisecent  of English era  of Palladian country  home .It was classical in style, with a large central portico and strong vertical lines on the exterior. It was in the interior that these country houses really shone, however. Furnishings were ornate and designed to impress. Generally, a large entry hall led on to living rooms meant for show. Bedrooms and dressing rooms were upstairs, while the kitchen and the servants quarters were relegated to the basement. It was terribly inconvenient, but it was magnificent!   Only  remaining Palladian country home in India



Ashok Kapoor came here as 21 year old worker in this  construction company from village bordering  Punjab and Pakistan, his ancestors were part of the Royal family Bhera Sargoda now in Pakistan . After Partition like many other families his family was also a refugee like others.He parents  died when was 19. He Worked himself to the position of Head of construction through sheer hard work . He worked with Mr Patel the man whoowned the companyabsorbed and learnt  everything from him .He in turn  treated him  with respect and trusted him. The relationship went beyond an employee and employer. Mr Patel was like a father he never had. One day  when he called  Ashok to office  begged him to marry is daughter Sheela. Ashok  didn’t  think twice before telling  him yes or he  thought of asking him why.  He had no plans of marrying anybody. So  infact  felt honoured to marry  the daughter of his Idol. But one thing  he knew there was  reason behind why he was chosen .



 The marriage happened…   He  went   for the honeymoon.  He  fell in love with his wife… she behaved like petulant  child always demanding.   And  since he loved her he gave into  her every demand. Indulging her in every possible way .  Ashok by now taken over reigns Patil Constructions. Sheela  had been spoilt by riches  and luxury.

And Ashok  encouraged her to live a life of her choice.   6 months of married life idyllically passed out .  Slowly   Sheela behaviour seemed to change.. she was never there at home there was alwaysat a party or  event to attend . When  she was there she was either inebriated stage or sleeping.



Ashok tried to stop her from drinking  it did not work. One fine day  Sheela became pregnant. He was ecstatic….Patil ji had passed away leaving him sole in charge of  the business. He thought  this was  best time  to put a stop to her drinking habits . He   changed  is working pattern  tried to stay with Sheela 24/7 taking care of her  For next 9 months   he  became Sheela’s shadow . The Child was born  and  was named RAJATH



 Ashok… was ecstatic.. He felt  he  had got is family back. Sheela had also stopped drinking . So  he was even more happy.



Ashok started  travelling  for business once again thinking  his life  has started . He wanted to establish  an empire for his son . He started working day and night. Sheela behaved normal.. he never had chance to suspect  anything was wrong  with her or his family.



Naina was compulsive  drinker and a drugaddict…had twisted sense of self image and indulged  in rampant Sexual anamolies and perversion.  The child  Rajath was brought up witnessing  these  perverse action.

Whenever Ashok  was there ,,, Sheela behaved as normal as can be.Acted  as good mother in front  of Ashok. Ashok never suspected is wife behaviour nor he knew how Rajath was treated. Whenever he smelt something was not right  , Sheela’s childish behaviour covered up her  grave sins. Servants where sent  away by Sheela whenever she indulged in these activities  or she took  Rajath along with her  wherever she went. Servants knew something was wrong  but  no one knew the extent of damage Sheela was causing in young Rajath mind



Rajath … as like all children adapted and  adopted the environment he was growing in. Never knowing what normal upbringing was. He witnessed things that no normal children should ever witness. His school behaviour or   absenteeism never reached Ashok’s ear. Everybody feared Sheela and her temperament nobodydared to question her. And Ashok  so in love with his  wife over looked those small small indicators as mistakes.



 Ashok whenever he had time for son met him and indulged his every wish and fancy.  Rajath was astute and Intelligent enough to realise how to behave  whenin  front  of his father. And he did  it with perfection. Ashok delighted with  his son’s progress never even  thought to cross check facts.





Rajath as he grewup slowly started reaching  beyond  limit conceived even  by his mother. By the age  of 15th He  had become an expert sexual transgression that went beyond abnormal human tendency. The first  killing started with  harmless dog which Ashok had given has a gift to Rajath on his 1Oth birthday . He killed the dog , when  he took  the life of the dog it gave him a high   sense of power he got  when he saw the animal dying  made him  feel like god … and pleasure  he got  from it  was so thrilling… He never liked sex… he indulged it  to please his mother… if he did not  his mother  became shrew  and would beat him  with  every possible thing she could lay her hands on…. But he loved his mother  when  she was not  in  her high she treated him  like prince  but  … that  did stay long  for the moment she indulged in drugs she was different…. When he realised his mother liked hitting him…. This  was how she was showing her love. He too slowly started enjoying .. He wanted to please his mother. Slowly , he understood the real  power  lies in  pain.. one who gives pain has the power.He liked the victims begging him and crying.More they begged, more  he enjoyed killing them. His victims were usually women whoturned him down  and who were strong.He enjoyed turning these women meek by hurting giving them pain. The pleasure he got from it surpassed any excitement.





Rajath tortured his women  for days before  he killed them by  the time he killed them they were half dead or…. When he killed them buried them in the walls  of his bungalow hung  paintings  to mark each girl he killed.



 Ashok  came to know  of his wife betrayal and his  sons crookedness by chance… when he accidently walked into  their RAAVE party…..



The moment  saw them it broke his heart… he had come  home to tell that he had fixed Rajath ‘ marriage.  He was furious… The   Party hurriedly broke up .Sheela  and Ashok fought for the first time and last . The  Sheela  in her inebriated state  and anger  spilled the  truth. She wanted to hurt  Ashok.  In that one truth, was that one which  broke Ashok. The truth was that Rajath  was not his son but he was the son of the bodyguard  who had been  appointed  to by Patelji to  protect her. It was this  man who introduced her  to orgies of sex supplied  her drugs and alcohol .  What he saw  , what he heard ,broke is heart and his will. His dream shattered. He broke down…then … and never got up. He had paralytic stroke.  Only his brain functioned.

Rajath  saw the truth…unfolding  he was not surprised. He  never knew his father nor had any respect or love for him. He  behaved because he knew his  father was  person  who gave the money and power  . Because for his passion money and  power was most important to protect him . When  father fell sick… it became very convenient for him to  takeover.. and explore  his passion in depth.



Rajath married Naina Dinanath  Singh …. as his father had arranged ,because sheela wanted to him to marry  for sake of appearance. He treated her  well.. but Naina knew all was not well with RAjath . She had seen the glimpses of madness but she had nothing by which anything. Nobody will believe her  when she said that there was something about Rajath which was wrong.



There was no warmth in their relationship or he was indifferent to her. He visited her  in the night  till he came to know she was pregnant.



Sheela   died all of the sudden one day.  Nobody new how  or when. Doctor  said she died due to  heart attack. But  Naina never saw her  after  the wedding day . She was never allowed to  enter the other side of the house. There was days  she heard voices  but  she never knew what it was. Rajath started leaving the farm house of her father which was  some distance way. She heard him come  now  and then.   But he never came and saw her. At night  she heard  someone breaking the walls of the house . When she tried to find out she was summarily asked to mind her own business.





 She wanted to  leave the house and rajath. But  one  soul ‘s eye which kept pleading  with  her . Her father in law  Ashok Kapoor .  There was something in his eyes which  made her stay back at this house. When  Nikhil was born. Naina was happy  she held something which filled her with warmth and  one person  she knew who would love her back unconditionally.



She knew her father would never welcome back to his house. His politically  image was important he will neverallow her to move back . Nikhil  birth  bought a light into her father in law soulless eyes.  She took him daily twice to meet his grandfather.To bring the men some sense of happiness in his dying days



Rajath was indifferent  to his son. He never even acknowledged  him.



As far she knew the only person who knew  Rajath was his  bodyguard  Kali.



Kali followed him like a shadow , where ever he  Rajath went.  No one knew who Kali  .. but there was something evil about him.



 But off late Rajath was restless… from the day Ramkapoor came home looking for Rajath  was different .. police and case  priya these words  were not spoken but TV news were filled with it . When she asked  Rajath  was so furious she left the room. Scared to even look at him.



For Rajath .. Naina was another piece of furniture he bought . He was not bothered for  him more than Naina ‘s father political connection mattered. That was most important to him..  he saw to it  he behaved properly in front  of Naina. Otherwise he was not bothered about Naina.  Dinanath Singh  was man of old school of thought  who believed the daughter should only be seen never be heard. For  him Rajath ‘s money  was a must to back his political  aspirations.



This business deal worked out  fine for both them.





The first  crinkle in this relationship was PRIYA ….. the only  women  who escaped Rajath.



The case was now proving to be thorn in Rajath side ..raising questions.. which  made  Rajath  for the first  time feel something was not going right. Kali was in jail for him … but that Ram’s  team were digging things which  was not good



He needed it to end …  here and now. Before the case  went to the court.
