ORGANIZED CHAOS Part (1-3)

 Part 1 Guilty

London

Khushi entered the house. In no time, she heard,

“Moooommmm…” she saw her cute daughter Aashi rushing towards her.

Khushi lifted her in her arms and kissed her cheek. She removed a box from her bag and gave it to her. Aashi became excited seeing a puzzle game.

“Thank you, mom…” Aashi showered numerous kisses on Khushi’s cheeks.

“Did you come?” Came from the kitchen entrance.

Khushi smiled at Lavanya.

“La Mom, see Khushi Mom brought a puzzle game for me”

“Wow… let’s play together” Lavanaya said.

“Okkkiiii” Aashi said tilting her head cutely.

Lavanya took Aashi from Khushi’s arms and said,

“Go and get fresh Khushi. Tea is ready in the flask”

“Thank you, dear” Khushi hugged Lavanya sideways.

“You are welcome” Lavanya pinched her cheek.

“La Mom, come, we will play”

“Yeah, sweetheart, coming”

Lavanya made her sit on the dinning table and Aashi arranged the puzzle game using the given picture. Lavanya helped her only if needed.

After getting fresh, Khushi came to them with a cup of hot tea and sat with them.

That was when NK rushed inside.

“Hi, Nanne…”

“Hi, Nanne Dad” Aashi smiled.

“Hi, Baby” NK kissed Aashi’s forehead and sat with them.

“Why are you looking tensed?” Lavanya asked.

NK gestured for Khushi something, looking at Aashi. Khushi stood up from the dining chair and went to the couch.

“Aashi darling, Mom will just come, giving tea to Nanne Dad. Ok?” Lavanya said.

“Okkiii…” She said not averting her gaze from the puzzle game.

Lavanya and NK came to Khushi and sat with her.   

“Akash called me. Sheetal’s wedding is fixed with Dr. Aman Mathur”

“Whaaaat?” Lavanya was shocked.

Khushi stopped sipping the tea for a while and sipped it again without showing any gesture on her face.

“After making your life hell, will they tying knot with the same man you were supposed to marry?” Lavanya gritted her teeth.

“Khushi, they are going to achieve what they want. What are we going to do now?” NK asked.

Khushi looked at Aashi and said,

“I’m going back to India…”

NK and Lavanya spared a glance.

“Khushi, don’t make decision when you are tensed”

“Who said I’m tensed? I’m so clear…! This is the right time for me to give an ENTRY”

“What are you going to do, Khushi?”

“I’m going to revenge those who depraved my life… I’m not going to leave them to be happy…” Khushi with a calm expression. There was no anger on her face while saying that.

Lavanya and NK looked at each other.

“They should regret for playing in my life. They should answer all the struggle I faced in my life” Khushi kept the empty cup on the table.

“But, you have no proof, Khushi”

“They knew the truth… it’s enough. They should have to piss off seeing me. I’m sure they will lose their complete peace of mind if I go in front of them. Will you say no?”

“Do you think your family will trust you?”

Khushi gritted her teeth.

“Who are they to trust me? They didn’t trust me when I needed them the most. They gave up on me when I pleaded them to trust me. Do you think I will expect that from them now?”

“No, you will not expect it form them after crossing so much odd in your life but is it necessary?”

“What do you think? Do you want me to settle down in London itself? No, Nanne. This is not our country. I just came to you to be away from the people who hurt me, insulted me, degraded me. However, I should have to go back to our country. I think this is a time”

“Do you have any plan?”

“What’s the big deal? Payal and Aki are there for us They will settle down Khushi and Aashi in India” Lavanya said.

Khushi nodded yes.

“Ok, I will arrange for your tickets.” NK said and looked at Aashi.

“How will we be without Aashi baby?”

“It’s very simple Nanne. Have your own child. You will not have time to think about Aashi” She smiled.

NK raised his brows at Lavanya who rolled her eyes, making Khushi chuckle.

NK and Lavanya arranged for Khushi’s India trip. Khushi was firm in her decision going back to India. She wanted to make people shiver with the TRUTH.

India \ Delhi

RM

Arnav entered the home smiling at his mother Ratna who just returned from US. He hugged Ratna smilingly. 

“How was your trip?”

“It was awesome, Mom… they are so satisfied with our deal”

“Thanks to Devi Maiya…”

“I’m so hungry. Give me something to eat”

“Go and get fresh…”

“Yup”

“When is your next trip?”

“No idea, Mom…” He walked to his room.

His legs slowed down when Ratna uttered,

“This is the last trip you went ALONE”

Arnav frowned.

“What does that mean, Mom?”

“That means, you will not be SINGLE next time when you travel abroad. I’m going to fix your wedding with a girl up to our status”

Arnav flared his nose, gritting his teeth.

“Mom, please stop it, ok” he walked not giving heed to her.

“Why, Chotte?”

 Arnav didn’t stop. He marched to his room without answering. Ratna was not ready to leave him this time. She followed him. When he came to his room, she made him turn towards her, clutching his shoulder. Arnav looked at her rigidly.

“Why? Why should I stop it? Tell me one valuable reason”

“I’m not interested in marriage… that’s why”

“But why? How long will you give me the same answer? This time I want the REASON for your denial”

“Mom, try to understand. If I deny something strongly, I would have a strong reason for it”

“That’s what I’m asking. What the bloody reason do you have?”

“I can’t marry anyone, Mom… I won’t be peaceful with anyone”

“But why? Any girl will celebrate you like anything, Chotte. No one can ignore your charm. You are already thirty-one…”

“I will be the same no matter if I’m forty-one or fifty-one”

“What do you mean, Chotte? Don’t my words have respect?”

“Don’t my feelings have respect?”

“Feelings? What feelings you are talking about? You are behaving like you don’t have feelings, Chotte…”

“I have feelings more than a common man has”

Then why don’t you want to marry?”

“That’s why I don’t want to marry…”

“Why are you torturing me like this, Chotte? Why are you doing this? What stops you from getting married? Why don’t you want to get married? Tell me, Chotte…” she shook his shoulders.

Arnav closed his eyes tightening his jaws.

“Tell me, Chotte. I ‘m not going to leave you until you tell me the reason. Tell me Chotte…”

Arnav answered. His answer hit her hard like ever before. 

“It’s because I RAPED a girl”

Ratna was shocked to the core. She looked at Arnav unbelievably. She nodded her head from left to right.

“No… I won’t believe this. You would not have done that. you are lying. I know you. you can’t ruin a girl’s life…”

“But I ruined…” he said fisting his fingers.

Ratna’s eyes overflew. Arnav’s next stance confused her.

“Without my consent…”

“What do you mean?”

“I was not in my sense, Mom”

“You mean, were you drunk?”

Arnav nodded no.

“My drink was spiked”

“Spiked? Who did that?”

“Vidhula…”

“Vidhula? You mean Vidhula Rai?”

Arnav nodded yes.

“I didn’t get you. The much I know Vidhula is so much into you. Then how did she let you be with another girl?”

“She planned to get me in bed. So, she can marry me. But as she didn’t expect, I ended up with another girl. It was unexpected…”

“Who is the girl?”

“I don’t know” Arnav said making Ratna disappointed.

To be continued…

Part 2 How?

 

“I don’t know who she is,” Arnav said.

 

“What do you mean, Chotte? You said you raped a girl but you don’t know her…”

 

“It’s because I didn’t see her, Mom. When I got rid of the intoxication, she was not there…”

Ratna thought something and asked,

 

“Chotte, could not the girl be sent by Vidhula to pull you down?”

 

“No, mom… she can’t be such a girl…” he said calmly but firmly.

 

“How are you so confident?”

 

“Mom, please, a SON can’t say everything openly to his mother. Understand that”

 

“Ok… you might be raped her but it was not intentional. It was an accident”

 

“Does it make a difference?”

 

“What’s the point in not getting married, Chotte?”

 

“Because my mind is killing me… I’m a rapist. I

spoilt a girl’s life. I never saw her. I don’t even know what she looks like but in my memories and my dreams, she comes every day. I can’t leave it just like that. With her memories, I can’t live with another girl. I already spoilt a girl’s life. I don’t want to spoil another one’s by the so-called marriage. Understand my feelings, Mom”

 

“Are you going to be like this for your whole life?”

 

Taking his clothes, Arnav walked to the washroom, without answering. Ratna stood feeling broken. Fate played a dirty game in his only son’s life.

 

Ratna went to her room to get ready to go to the hospital. That was her routine to go to the hospital to get physiotherapy due to her joint pain.

 

….

Arnav was standing in front of the mirror in the washroom. His mother recalled the INCIDENT that happened five years ago. It could have happened ACCIDENTLY but Arnav could not consider it as an accident. According to him, it was an INCIDENT, that changed his mind and life upside down.

 

Five Years Ago / Hotel Blue Moon

 

“The Young Businessman Award goes to Mr. Arnav Singh Raizada” The program Host announced.

 

Arnav marched to the wide stage in between the

applause.

 

Arnav took part in the party that was held after the award ceremony. Arnav was talking to his manager cum friend Karan. He rolled his eyes when a woman came to him. She was one of the businesswomen in Delhi.

 

“Congratulations ASR”

 

Arnav nodded.

 

She looked at Karan and said,

 

“I would like to talk to Arnav alone. could you please…”

 

Karan looked at Arnav and was about to leave the place,

 

“Wait…who is your Boss?”

 

“Obviously, you, ASR” Karan said, glancing at Vidhula.

 

“So, you ought to obey ONLY me” Arnav said sipping the juice in his hand.

 

Vidhula sighed.

 

“Do you know how many businessmen are longing for my one smile”

 

“Who stops you from smiling at them?”

 

“You…” she took a step close to him.

 

Arnav moved a step back.

 

“You are the only one who keeps distance from me. Look at our surroundings… how many eyes are nestling me…!”

 

“Then, choose one from them. Why are you behind me?”

 

“I too don’t know… I too don’t know why I’m shamelessly behind you… you know what, I have a habit. If I like something, I will get it by hook or crook” She said with a strong gaze.

 

“Let’s go, Karan” Arnav said looking at her carelessly.

 

They left the place leaving Vidhula with annoyance.

 

“ASR, don’t take Vishula lightly,” Karan said.

 

“Why?”

 

“What she said is not an exaggeration. She will get anything she likes”

 

“Is it?”

 

“Yes, ASR”

 

“Am I a commodity to get?”

 

“I didn’t mean it ASR”

 

“Don’t give much importance to her…she isn’t worth it”

 

Karan sighed.

 

Arnav started his car and headed to RM. When he took a turn into his lane, he saw a woman checking her car bonnet. Seeing his car, she waved her hand. Arnav stopped the car and lowered the window.

 

“Sir, please, could you help me…” The girl asked. Arnav frowned seeing the girl.

 

“Tell me”

 

“I think the coolant is over… do you have any?”

 

Arnav nodded yes and got out of the car and removed a coolant bottle for the dickey. He gave it to the girl.

 

“Thank you so much… how much?”

 

“It’s ok…”

 

“But…”

 

“Take it, Payal…” Arnav smiled.

 

The girl was stunned.

 

“How do you know my name?”

 

“Can’t you identify me?”

 

Payal nodded no.

 

“St. Stephen’s School… Eighth standard C section…”

 

Payal bit her nail.

 

“Ok, cool… Arnav…”

 

Payal dropped her jaw.

 

“Arnaaaavvv…?”

 

He nodded yes.

 

“What a surprise…! You changed a lot man…”

 

“But you have not changed a bit… especially your eyes”

 

“My God… I can’t believe this”

 

“How are you want are you doing?”

 

“I’m fine and busy with my career… physiotherapist…!”

 

“Wow, that’s great…”

 

“Yeah, and I found my better half too”

 

“Oh… nice”

 

“Yeah, our wedding will be fixed on my birthday.

That is the day after tomorrow. You are invited.”

 

“Oh sure… I will be present”

 

“The Hotel PARADISE… evening 7o’ clock”

 

“Yup…”

 

“I will be waiting for you”

 

“Sure sure…”

 

Arnav left the place. He came home and took his daily planner to note down Payal’s birthday, and that was when he saw another program was on the same day but with an hour difference. He sighed biting his teeth.

 

Another program was going to be held in the Hotel White Pearl. It was just a minute’s ride from the hotel Paradise where Payal’s birthday party would be held.

 

Arnav decided to attend both programs as they had an hour difference.

 

As per the plan he went to Hotel White Pearl to attend the businessmen’s party. As usual, he avoided drinks. He looked at his watch. It was ten minutes to seven. He decided to leave the party. That was when a senior businessman came to him and gave him a vodka glass.

 

“Sorry Mr. Dadda… I won’t drink”

 

“Oh… then you can have soft drinks…”

 

He called a bearer and ordered him to bring him juice.

 

“It’s ok, Mr. Dadda…”

 

“No way… I can’t allow you to leave without having anything from my party”

 

The bearer came with a juice glass. Taking it, Arnav gulped.

“That’s my boy…” Dadda smiled.

 

“Excuse me…” Arnav stood up.

 

“Where are you going?”

 

Arnav raised his small finger and made Dadda laugh. Arnav came to the washroom with a pretext and ran to the parking lot. Starting his car, he geared it up. He had to go to Payal’s birthday party. He met one of his school friends after many years. He could not disappoint her. He reached the Hotel Paradise within eight minutes, taking a shortcut. When he stopped the car, he felt dizzy. Yet, he walked. He tried to stand straight but he could not. His vision blurred. His legs swayed. He could understand something was happening to him. He stopped at the reception.

 

"What can I do for you, sir?" The man in the reception asked.

 

“May I get a room…?”

 

“Yes, sir…”

Taking a form, he gave it to Arnav.

 

“Fill it, sir”

 

Arnav slipped his balance and fell on the reception table.

 

"Sir, are you all right?"

 

Arnav removed a bundle of money from his pocket and said,

 

“Take this money… please take me to any room. I can’t stand…” he didn’t want to go in front of Payal in this condition. At the same time, he didn’t feel he could drive a car. So, he decided to rest.

 

The receptionist pulled the money and stuffed it in his pocket. He called someone.

 

“Did you clean the room?”

 

“…..”

 

“Don’t lock it… switch the lights off and leave”

 

“…”

 

He disconnected the call.

 

“Sir, your room is ready… come, I will take you there”

 

He took Arnav to room No. 108, which was on the ground floor. sending him inside, he locked the door. Hanging the DO NOT DISTURB card on the door, he left.

 

Arnav came and fell on the bed and felt a soft and smooth flesh underneath him.

 

To be continued…

 

Part 3 Good Girl

 

Arnav felt soft and smooth flesh underneath him. He caressed it slowly and got to know it was a girl. Her features told him that. In no time, he was aroused. He knew he was getting aroused but he could do nothing about it. He could not hold himself from touching the girl. He intended to have her right away without carting about anything. He caressed her hugging her tightly. 

 

The girl’s voice sounded sleepy.

 

“Mmm… leave me…” She whined.

 

Arnav was not in the state to leave her. His heart wanted to leave her but his mind was not ready to listen to it. He HAD her… without her acceptance… without her consent… without her wish…! At that time, he was not Arnav because Arnav was not a man who would touch a girl who was not interested.

 

“Leave me… it pains… Babuji, where are you? Come and save me” She cried.

 

Arnav fell on the bed COMPLETING something he didn’t want to.

 

After that, he didn’t know what happened. He slept on the same bed. He heard a soft moan from the girl until he slept.

 

Arnav woke up the next morning. His head was heavy. He was shocked to see himself nude. That was when he recalled the last night’s happenings and was horrified. He had a girl last night. But how? What happened to him? How could he do that? Who was she? How did she come into that room? Was she sent by his enemy to trap him?

 

The room looked still dark as the room was covered with thick curtains. He found the switchboard caressing the wall and switched the light on. He looked at the bed to see the girl but she was not there. His eyes got rooted on the bed where he saw BLOOD STRAIN. He gulped down hard. It was not hard for him to understand how the blood came on the bed. It was the girl’s blood. That meant she was a VIRGIN. That was when something caught his attention. It was an ANKLET. He slowly went to the bed and took it in his hand. It was an old design anklet with red enamel lotuses. He kept it in his pocket. Hurriedly dressing up, he came out of the room. He saw a man in the reception.

 

“What can I do for you, Sir?” the man asked.

 

“I came here last night and stayed in room number 108. You were the one who took me to the room”

 

“Me? No sir… It’s not me. it must be the one who was here for night duty. I just came five minutes ago”

 

Arnav ran his fingers in his hair annoyingly. He wanted to meet the girl but how could he do that? He didn’t know who she was…! Arnav took a step to leave the hotel. He saw someone coming to the reception. He looked at the man in the reception and said,

 

“Good morning. Today, I came earlier to change the duty, unlike yesterday” he said.

 

Arnav looked at the man shockingly who closed his eyes disappointedly. Arnav clutched his collar, gritting his teeth.

 

“Why the hell did you lie? Tell me, or else, I will kill you”

 

“Sir, I saw a girl coming from your room, crying. I called her but she rushed out without listening to me… I guessed something should have happened horribly. That’s why I lied”

 

“When did she go from here?”

 

“The time is 5:15 am sir”

 

“Ok, I want to watch the CCTV camera footage… show me…”

 

“I’m sorry, sir. I deleted them” he said hesitatingly.

 

“Whaaaat? But why?” he bit his jaws.

 

“Sir, I got money from you without record. If anyone sees the CCTV camera footage, I will lose my job. That’s why I deleted them, Sir”

 

Arnav pushed his collar irritatingly.

 

“I’m sorry, sir. I will give your money back…” he removed the bunch of money from his pocket.

 

“Please take this money, sir. Please, don’t tell anyone about it… please sir”

 

Arnav closed his eyes helplessly. He opened his eyes jerking.

 

“Did you see the girl?”

 

The man gulped down.

 

“Tell me, Damn it”

 

“Yes, sir…”

 

“Could you identify her?”

 

“Sure…”

 

Arnav left the place immediately. He called his manager Karan.  He attended the call.

 

“Karan, where are you?”

 

“On the way to the office, ASR”

 

“Someone spiked my drink at the party last night. I want to know who the hell did that”

 

“Spiked? Is anything wrong?”

 

“Everything became wrong. Look, a girl rushed out of the Hotel Paradise at 5:15 am. I want to know who she is. Inquire about her…”

 

“Ok, ASR”

 

Arnav disconnected the call.

 

After a few hours,

 

Karan entered Arnav’s cabin.

 

“ASR, Vidhala Rai is the one who spiked your drink”

 

“Vidhala? Are you sure?”

 

“A few of her men had been searched for you after you left the hotel White Pearl. Actually, she planned to get you in her bed. Thank God, you escaped from her”

 

Arnav felt helpless. He escaped from her trap but an innocent girl got trapped with him.

 

“What about the girl I asked you to enquire?”

 

“No one is aware of her, ASR. She left the hotel early in the morning… who would be there in the chilling climate, ASR?”

 

Arnav closed his eyes with disappointment. He didn’t know what to do… and, how to find the girl. He felt helpless.

 

Today…

 

Arnav came out of his thought. That changed his life. Yes, it changed his life because he knew she was a GOOD GIRL. When she lost herself to him, she was a VIRGIN. He closed his eyes. Her voice was echoing in his head.

 

“Leave me… it pains… Babuji, where are you? Please come and save me…!”

 

Arnav opened his eyes jerking. He splashed water on his face. He could not get rid of the terrible VOICE of the girl. She called her father to save her. Father was the first hero of any girl. Her father must have been her hero. If she called her father in such a situation, she must be a good girl. More than that, she was a virgin. He saw blood strain on the bedsheet. Arnav didn’t know how she ended up in the room because he himself didn’t know he was going to stay in the room. Then how? He never got an answer to the question.

 

Making himself up, Arnav came downstairs, getting ready. Ratna was waiting for him there.

 

“Shall we?”

 

She nodded yes.

 

Arnav took her to the hospital.

 

They came to the Physiotherapy hospital. Arnav knocked on the doctor’s cabin and got a,

 

“Come in…” 

 

He entered with Ratna and smiled at Payal.

 

“Hi, Arnav… hello, Aunty, how are you?”

 

“My knee pain is not reducing…” Ratna said.

 

“It’s an age factor, Aunty. You should have come to me long ago. You just started the treatment a week ago. It will take time Aunty”

 

“Payal, I can’t bring her here every day. It’s very hard for me to cope with this timing. I’m coming home earlier; you know” Arnav said wearily.

 

“That’s great…” Payal smiled.

 

Arnav rolled his eyes.

 

“Can’t you come to RM or, send someone to RM every day, Payal? I will pay double… please understand the value of my TIME” Arnav said.

 

“Ok… I will relieve you in a week” Payal said.

“How?”

 

“My friend is coming from London. I will send her to RM every day. She will take care of Aunty and LESSEN YOUR BURDEN”

 

“Thank God… I’m ready to pay your friend double… please ask her to come to RM”

 

“Ok, ok… until she comes to RM, you can bring Aunty only alternative days… ok?”

 

“Thank you so much, Payal. You have no idea, what kind of help you have given to me”

 

Payal smiled.

 

Payal might not know what kind of help she had given to Arnav but, WE knew, right…!

 

To be continued…
