Silent Love

Part 14


Rohini and Smita sit in nano, move out of the hotel and after driving for some time Rohini stops her car, looking to Smita enquires by signaling, “what to do”? Smita is in her thoughts and so she actually did not see Rohini’s gestures. Then Smita suggests to Rohini that they should go to Rohini’s house and better discuss the matter with Mahendra. Rohini, “what to discuss with Mahendra? Do you mean to say that we should tell about the conversation we overheard to him?”

“Yes, we must inform him that Mr. Joshi wants to stop him from getting closer to Rohini and that must be having some reason. I am sure.” Smita

Without further discussion they decide to go to Rohini’s apartment and soon they reach. Mahendra was watching television and as usual Lily was sitting on other chair in that Rohini’s bedroom.
“Hi,” Lily greets them. Even though Rohini sees them together she does not feel annoyed as she now knows that Mahendra and Lily are good friends and nothing else. Rohini returns the greeting and looking to Mahendra tells him that she wants to talk to him on some very urgent matter.
“What is the matter?” Mahendra
Rohini tells him what they saw at the hotel Robin. Lily was also listening to the talk and she abruptly screams, “If this man, Joshi, is so frantically bothered about Mahendra then I am sure he shall definitely come here and that will be very soon; may be today!”
Mahendra, Rohini and Smita all look to each other looking worried, they want to decide what to do. Lily suggests to them that in case Joshi happens to visit here, Mahendra should quietly move to Lily’s house. Lily looking to Mahendra tells him that she will keep the side door unlocked from inside and as this man enters the house he should move out and enter her house and that is understood. As Mahendra will enter Chandavarkar’s house Lily will come to Rohini’s house, join her, and keep watch on the man. This will keep things safe from that man.

All of them liked the arrangement and now Mahendra a little relaxed tells Rohini and Smita that he has prepared some special mutton samosas for the snacks. They all really liked the idea of having samosas for the evening snacks and there Smita taunts Rohini by passing remark, not looking to her, “here we are having special celebration!” Rohini does not react.

Mahendra looks to them but does not understand the meaning of the comment and least bothered he moves to the kitchen. Lily follows him and Rohini begins to change her dress and prepares to go for a freshening bath. Smita moves to the living room and then to the kitchen to join Mahendra and Lily. They were enjoying the sumptuous samosas with hot chutney made of coconut and green chilies. How time passed they did not realized but it was almost 8 o’clock and Smita looking to her wristwatch appeals to Rohini that she must move. Lily had made a new friend in Smita and both of them were quite close during the get together. As Smita moves to the lobby where the entrance to the apartment opens they all join her and move out to the lobby. Mahendra was standing at the door of the kitchen a little away from the ladies. The three were busy commenting on each others as usually they do. Lily moves towards the door to open it since she also wants to go out to her home. There she sees a dark shadow of somebody standing out side the apartment. On seeing that she cautions the other girls pointing to the shadow. Mahendra was standing away and so he could not see the shadow. It was a shadow of some man and that was sure that the man was waiting out side the door as if he wanted to eves drop on any thing that may be heard! This silenced the trio, they looked to Mahendra and Rohini rushed to him, pulled his arm forcefully, and brought him to the lobby. Mahendra now sees the shadow, whispers to Rohini and tells her to open the door and find out who it could be; but she feels frightened and refuses to do that. Lily warns Mahendra and tells him to be away. She speaks to them in the lowest voice possible and tells them that her surmise about that Joshi has come true. Lily warns all that it is nobody but Mr. Josh.

They all look to each other not knowing what to do. Some time, a few moments, pass and nothing was done. And then intuitively Smita approaches the door and opens it. She sees Mr. Joshi standing there a few steps away. Seeing him she shows great surprise on her face greets him with a leer. Rohini pushes Mahendra in side the bathroom which is next to the lobby and asks him to hide there for a while. Lily pushes out to see Joshi and on seeing him gives him a mischievous smile tossing her long tresses front by a forceful jerk to her neck in the manner that they almost whip around Mr. Joshi. Joshi dodges and avoids the touch of those hair; this both the girls enjoy. Lily carefully sees him by bending her neck while proceeding towards her apartment. Joshi looks a little embarrassed but nevertheless keeps waiting there with a smile on his face.

“Sir, how is it that you came here?” Smita
Joshi looks all the more embarrassed and meekly asks her if Rohini is there. “Yes sir, she is very much there.” Saying this loudly she calls Rohini as if Rohini did not know of Joshi’s arrival. Rohini looks out peeping out of the door keeping her body hidden in the door and shows on her face as if she is really surprised to see him.
“Sir, what is the matter? Any such important development that you have to come to me? Rohini enquires.

“Would you not call me in,” Joshi pleads modestly. This his pleading Rohini really enjoys very much and she impulsively ushers him in her apartment. Joshi enters the place very slowly and as he enters sees around in the lobby. Then Rohini as planned by Lily takes him in her bedroom. Rohini walking ahead of Joshi and Joshi following her, they enter her room. Mahendra is keenly watching the man from behind and he recognizes that this is Mr. Joshi. As the two enter her bedroom, swiftly Mahendra with his long steps approaches the entrance door, which is kept open by Rohini as planned, rushes out into the lift vestibule. With the speed of electricity he moves toward side door of Lily’s apartment and there he sees Lily waiting for him, she opens the door, almost pushes him in her house and slams the door.
