Chapter Thirty-Two : You Know Nothing
Rehan
*present*
I just couldn't believe my
ears as I stood there still as a statue. It was difficult for me to believe
that Ruhani could do this. How can
she? Didn't she adored Tanya as well? Then Why? With all these
questions exploding in my mind I just couldn't bear it anymore. Why the people
whom you trust always betray you more often than the ones you don't?
I would never had believed it
if someone else had said this to me. But I had to believe as she had confessed
it herself. I always knew she was an emotionally driven person but this, it was
something that I couldn't imagine she could do it in a gazillion years. She was
the reason for Tanya's present condition.
All I could do was shake my
head in disgust and disbelief, "Tell me once that all that you said was a
big huge lie or a joke and I'll forgive you. Please tell me it’s some worst
prank."
Instead of responding to my
word she just shook her head and kept fidgeting with her fingers. "For god
damn sake TELL ME Ruhani!" I screamed as I held her by shoulders and had
shaken her vigorously.
"No" She muttered
in low voice. I pulled my hands back and headed towards the door.
"Wait Rehan! You had
promised me you won't judge me or leave me. Don't do this to me. I am really
sorry." She said as she feel on her knees trying to stop me from leaving
by holding my hand.
I shook her hand off me and
closed the door with the force making loud noise as it hit the door frame. I
entered my room and closed the door from inside. After a while there was
knocking on the door. I could hear Ruhani outside as she kept crying and
apologising.
I was trying to ignore her as
my cell phone beeped. It was a private number again. I picked up the call to
answer. "Hello Mr Rehan?" A Male voice echoed in my ears.
"Yes, I am." I
answered trying to get my mind out of those wild thoughts.
"Sir, it’s me your
private detective."
"Yes, speak. Any
updates?" I sat, taking my head in hand.
"Yes sir, I have almost
solved your case. I just need to confirm about the evidences that I have come
across. I 'll email you the final case report by tomorrow."
"Okay, thanks, that
sounds great. I will send you the remaining payment after receiving the final
case file." I answered brushing tears of my eyes.
"Thank you sir, It was a
pleasure working for you." Answering he dropped the call.
I switched off my phone and
kept it in a drawer beside the bed. The thoughts about everything that had
happened over that one night were all over my mind. All I needed was some time
alone to think. I decided to take a nap as it was the only thing that could
help me to keep all these thoughts away from my mind.
I wasn't quite comfortable
when Ruhani had offered to keep the cops away from this incident. Uncle didn't
mind about it as Tanya was recovering and he didn't wanted it to be a big issue
before the press and media. Who wouldn't want to know the latest gossip which
had two business tycoons involved? After thinking a lot, I decided to go for
Private Detective Services.
It wasn't quite difficult to
find the real culprit after involving a professional detective in the matter.
He used to send me reports regularly about the evidences he used to get. I had
even mailed him the number from which I had been getting calls about that
night. He took a few days to get it traced and when he sent me the report for
it. I was shocked to see that the person who used to call was none other than
Abish.
That meant even he was
somehow involved in this. But how did
Ruhani didn't say even a word about Abish being there that night? Was Ruhani
really hiding something from me again or She was telling lies by building up
the story to save Abish?
Even after trying to sleep to
calm down my mind. I was unable to stop thinking about what Ruhani had
confessed. I took my phone and switched it on to see if there were any
messages. There were 100 messages from Ruhani. There wasn't any to have a look
at those as I knew already what they could be.
I stood up and headed towards
the door. I was surprised to see to find Ruhani sitting by the door as the
sobbing still prevailed. She looked up towards me and tried to apologise which
was overtaken by her sobs.
As I tried to leave ignoring
her, she hugged me from behind. I tried to get her hands off me but she pulled
her grip tight over my torso. I forcefully pulled myself out of her arms and
rushed downstairs.
"Rehan!" Tanya's
Dad called me as I was climbing down the stairs.
"I have really good news
for you. Doctors said she might get her conscious back anytime soon. Isn't that
great news?" He had smile on his face as he was happy that his daughter
will be fine soon.
"Uncle can I stay
tonight with Tanya? You can have some rest today." I said trying to hide
all the hatred I had been getting for everyone whom I used to trust.
"Yes, then keep me
informed about her status overnight." he said as I headed towards the
exit.
The next thing I
did consciously was filling up the medical formalities that were due to be
completed. I dialled Abish's number as I sat outside Tanya's hospital room. He
picked up after a few rings.
"Hey, how did you
remembered me at this time of the day?" he said.
"You need show your presence at the Arora Mansion Tomorrow in the evening. So kindly free up your schedule a little bit for it. There's no option of skipping it so please be there." I said and cut the line.
