Chapter 39: Chapter 39

Ruhaan's P.O.V.

.

After lunch, I came back to office and Tithy followed me here. I tried to concentrate on my work but something started coming to my mind when I went through the file of the previous meeting.

I really liked the relationship between Tithy and Roshni. Roshni sometimes reminded me of my older self when Titly was alive.

I always tried to keep Titly happy and I would do from anything to everything to bring the smile back if she became sad anyhow.

Exactly the same thing I felt in Roshni's behavior. May be that's why I tried to give some back up support to Roshni to sort out their problems when I felt her situation.

But whatever I saw in the meeting amazed me. The way these two sisters handled their personal life and professional life was accordingly.

In the restaurant, Tithy kept waiting for someone and the look on her face was desperate as she kept looking at the watch and the entrance again and again.

After lunch when she agreed to come back to office with me after glancing at her watch for the last time, she was all sad. I tried to make her say something to me but she didn't.

After office time Tithy came to me and asked, "Sir, do I need to do something or should I leave now?"

I kept staring at her for a moment. When she again uttered, "Sir?", I just answered, "You can leave now."

She left my cabin immediately and I also got back home but the thought kept bothering me. I kept thinking whether they would sort out their problems.

I was feeling helpless as I was not being able to help them anyway. Hearing Magrib Azan, I went to washroom and made ablution.

After saying my prayer, I prayed for them to Almighty ALLAH to help them to sort out their problems and grant their wishes.

After that I went to my study and started working on some files.

Tithy's P.O.V.

.

After whatever happened in the late of the afternoon, I entered my room while chiding to myself.

Hearing Magrib Azan, I went towards washroom to get freshen up and made ablution.

When I entered the room again, Api was there. She came up to me to say something but ignoring her, I started my prayer.

After prayer I got my book and went to balcony. After a while I felt someone standing beside me. I knew it was api but I didn't bother looking at her rather kept reading the book.

She kept standing for a while then got near me and uttered, "Tithy?"

Without looking at her, I spoke up, "Go on. I am listening."

"Sweetie, are you upset with me? Believe me, it's going to be alright. Tamim is a nice guy."

I kept staring at her for a moment and then spoke up, "Who are you talking to Api? Are you done with convincing yourself?"

Api got silent hearing me but when I was about to speak up again, she uttered, "Tithy please"

I tried to speak up nonetheless but Ma called Api and she left from there.

At dinner Ma and api kept talking to each other casually and I just spoke up whenever it got necessary.

After dinner I went to my room and said my prayer. Before api came back to the room, I got on the bed. I closed my eyes and tried to get some sleep as I couldn't understand what should I really do or tell her.

Roshni's P.O.V.

.

I knew Tithy was not happy with my decision but what other option was I left with!

It was the demand of situation and I couldn't help it. With an intention to talk to Tithy, I got back to our room but she was already asleep. I lied beside her and put the blanket properly on her. I caressed her hair for a while and after sometime I also drifted to sleep.

At Fazar time, I woke up for prayer and called Tithy also. After prayer we slept for some time again only to get up late.

Ammi woke us up and set the table. After breakfast, we rushed to office and Ammi reminded us both to take leave from work for some days. Tithy just nodded at that and left for office. Today both of us walked up to the general spot from where we parted our ways but silently.

Ruhaan's P.O.V.

.

Waking up at Fazar time, I said my prayer and went out for jogging. Coming back after a while, I rushed to my room and took a lengthy shower.

Then I got downstairs. As kaki wasn't still in, I made a coffee myself and got back to my room. While sipping the coffee, I started working on a file.

After working for few hours, I got ready for office. When I got down, I saw kaki in the kitchen. Seeing me coming down, she set the table for me.

I took my breakfast and left for office.

When I got down from my car, I saw Tithy coming towards office hurriedly. She was still looking sad.

With an intention to know the matter anyhow today, I called her through intercom after entering my cabin and asked her to bring two cups of coffee to my cabin.

She came to my cabin after few minutes with a tray. Putting the tray on the table in front of me, she spoke up, "Sir, here is your coffee. Do you need something else?"

I nodded at her and took my cup of coffee and said to her, "The other one is for you."

She gave me a questioning look and I spoke up, "Take a seat. I need to talk to you."

She took a seat and looked at me. I pointed towards the coffee and spoke up, "Have it."

She nodded at me and took the cup. When I spoke up again with a concerned tone but with little bit of hesitation, "Tithy, between you and Roshni, is there any problem? You can tell me if there is any. I will try to help you in any manner I can. I mean you can consider me your"

She gave me a blank look and I stopped at that point. After keeping silent for a while, she spoke up, "Sir, I need 2 days off from tomorrow."

When I gave her a questioning look, she spoke up again, "Roshni Api is getting married."

I was not expecting something like that and uttered, "What!"

She then gave me a questioning look and I got startled. Getting myself together, I spoke up again, "I mean if your sister is getting married, shouldn't it be a great news to you? What's with the look of yours then!"

Right then her phone started ringing before she could utter anything. Glancing at the phone, she looked at me and uttered, "Sir, I will take your leave now. I need to complete my work."

Finding nothing to say, I just nodded and she left. But the line that Tithy said with a sad face kept echoing in my mind, "Roshni Api is getting married."

Author's P.O.V.

.

The later day went on with meetings and other official woks. At the end of office time, Tithy came to Ruhaan and took her leave after reminding him the 2 days off thing again.

When she got back home, Roshni was already there. Their mother was happily bringing out the things, she kept for their marriage.

Seeing Tithy, she called Tithy there to ask her how the jewelries were looking on Roshni. Roshni smiled a little looking at Tithy. Roshni was trying to convince Tithy by giving her an assuring look but Tithy was still thinking whether the things were going on alright.

❄️

The next day got passed busily in Tithy's home with shopping of Roshni and further arrangement of marriage.

And Ruhaan was busy with his office work.

After having their individual works done, they called it a day and soon drifted to sleep being tired.

Ruhaan's P.O.V.

.

Like yesterday after prayer, I went out for jogging. Coming back home, I took a shower. And then getting ready I left for office.

I had a meeting before lunch time. After that I kept on working without taking lunch. I was feeling very tired after working for several hours on a file in office.

Closing the file, I leaned back on the chair closing the eyes and didn't know when I fell asleep. I woke up suddenly having a very bad dream.

I didn't remember full of it and all I just remembered that Tithy was crying a lot and this was piercing my heart. I did not understand what to do.

I dialed Tithy's number without thinking anything and waited for her to answer my call but when she didn't, I left my cabin and rushed to her. After knocking, I entered her cabin but found her nowhere.

When I was walking in her cabin restlessly, Neety entered and asked me, "Sir, do you need anything?"

Without bothering to answer her question, I asked her, "Where is Titly? I mean Tithy. Where is she?"

"Sir, she told me that she took two days off. And asked me to assist you meanwhile in case you need any file or coffee" She told me politely then I remembered that Tithy asked for two days leave for her sister's marriage.

So I asked Neety with a hope if she knew anything about the venue, "Oh, yes. I forgot but do you know where the marriage ceremony is taking place?"

But when she said no, I left clueless.

I didn't know why but I was having a bad vibe. I was feeling that something bad was happening or was going to happen.

"I don't know what but I have to stop that" I reminded myself and went out of my office and hopped in my car.

I didn't think of my destination but somehow reached Tithy's Home. Hoping all would be good, I went towards the entrance.

Though I found the house was empty inside, I could hear voices of different people. I walked towards the voices and reached the garden.

There were many people and all I could hear of bad mouthing towards a girl from different people. I couldn't understand what was happening.

I was searching for Tithy and at last I found her but the state of her was the same that I saw in my dream. She was sitting on a chair and crying like no more.

Without bothering to know about the situation, I got near her. I knelt down in front of her and placed my hand in her head while uttering, "Tithy?"

She looked up at me and the expression on her face pierced my heart. Then eventually I ended up doing something that I promised myself not to do ever.
