Chapter 3: Unexpected Night

---------------------------------

The room was quiet warm and big and there were big glass window panes on two sides of the room, covered with heavy curtains. I looked around the room as the porter kept our luggage and shut the door behind us. Two room-heaters kept the room warm and cozy. I asked Paree whether she liked the room or not. She silently nodded her head, saying that the room was ok.

Paree took off her jacket; she has opened both our bags and was keeping our dresses inside the cupboard. I sat on the chair and looked at Paree as she was engrossed in arranging our belongings. Her long hairs have unfurled, dancing down till her waist. From behind, her figure looked like the ancient hour-glass. Her salwar arms were of full-length. Her fairly broad shoulders, tappers down to a small round waist and rested over her wide hips. Below her hips, I could sense her slender fleshy thighs which were hidden inside her churidar, which further narrowed down to small calf and feet. Inside my heart I felt like leaping forward to take her in my arms and kiss her nape and ears and her small round shoulder. At times I could hear the jingles of her bangles as she was totally engrossed in her activity. Frequently she was removing her lovely locks over her ear that was softly caressing her left cheek. While she bent down to pick up belonging from the bags, her shaped behind, hidden inside her long salwar; outlined each contours, the view made my heartbeat to stop for few seconds. I was unable to control myself further, so I walked behind her and took her in my arms and hugged her tightly. I removed her hairs over her right shoulder and planted a wet kiss over her skin. She shivered a bit on sensing my wet lips on her smooth skin. She looked at me over her shoulder; there was a cold look in her eyes which poured cold water on my all heated sensation in my heart. She turned towards me while I had her in my arms.

In a cold voice ---“Let me go, I want to go to rest room.”

I felt a storm brewing. She picked-up her baby pink cotton sleeveless night dress and a heavy woolen gown, and silently walked inside the bathroom.

I slowly walked towards the bed and sat over there silently, taking off my dresses and all. I had changed into my track-suit. After sometime she came out of the restroom and asked me to fresh myself up.

I asked her ---“What has happened, why you are so quiet? You don’t want to talk to me?”

---“Get inside and get fresh. Shall I order for the dinner?”

I nodded my head ---“Ok, but why are you so quiet?”

She pushed me inside.

After I came out I saw her sitting on a chair by the table near one big glass window, looking outside in the dark night. She was sitting there with cross legged, resting her face on her left elbow, and right hand across her lap. The room ambience was gloom all due to the cold silence of Paree. The bubbly girl was lost somewhere. The dinner was already served. We finished the dinner in total silence, no words from anyone of us. I need to douse the situation or else the whole vacation will turn sour.

She took off her woolen overcoat and tucked herself under the heavy blanket. She sat there inclining her back on the headboard of the huge bed. In the low light of the room she was looking like an angel, her pearl earrings shining brightly. She looked at me with her raging eyes.

As I stood by the leg side of the bed, I asked her ---“What has happened? Would you care to tell me something?”

---“Have you looked outside? Not a single speck of light anywhere. Where have you brought me? There are no shops, no eateries, and no large houses. Nothing. Not a single tourist also.”

---“See, Paree, I wanted to take you to someplace. I am also new in this part of the country.”

---“There are no shops for shopping.”

---“Why do you need shops?”

She yelled at me ---“Obviously for shopping, what else? Everyone, who ever go to a tourist destination, comes back with lots of shopping.”

---“You have come here for shopping?”

---“Ok, not for shopping, but there is nothing outside. What is here to see and enjoy? You told me that there is a river, but I don’t’ see that also.”

---“It is dark outside, probably due to that you are unable to see anything.”

---“Have you seen the road here? Actually there was no road. It was full of gravels and stones. It was very dangerous.”

I could not keep my head cool; so the first fight between us has already started. I yelled at her ---“How come I would know that the road would be so bad?”

---“You were definitely aware of all these.”

---“My God! Don’t tell me that Paree.”

---“I should have gone with Kalyani and Rani to Manali, instead of coming here with you.”

---“Yes, you should have. Why didn’t you?”

---“You know that very well why I have come with you, and see ….”

---“See what, Paree?”

---“See, around us. The place you have brought me. There is no one in this hotel also. What will happen if something bad happens to us? No one knows we are here in such a dangerous place with nothing around.”

I screamed ---“Oh! Damn Paree. Nothing will happen to us.”

There was bit of choking in her voice---“All I wanted to have this vacation memorable.” She wiped the corner of her eyes with her index finger. I paid no heed to those beads of pearls dropping from those lotus eyes.

I just shouted at her ---“Now, don’t shed your crocodile tears.”

She yelled at top of her voice pointing her index finger toward me---“Don’t you dare, talk to me like that. Tomorrow morning I want to go back. I know in which hotel Kalyani was going to stay in Shimla.”

______________________________



---“Ok, tomorrow morning I will take you back.”

She tucked herself inside the blanket and turned on her right, away from my side, facing towards the other window, hid her face on the soft pillows. Her back was trembling gently; I sensed that she has started sobbing, my goodness. I slapped my forehead.

I lowered my voice and tried to soak it with honey---“Please don’t cry. I need some fresh air.”

In a choked voice she spoke---“I know very well, what you need. Puff all the cigarettes you have brought and kill yourself. I have seen the cigarette packets in the bag, which you have tried to hide from me. Just get lost from my sight.”

---“Oh! Please, for God’s sake. Keep quiet.”

---“Go away, leave me alone. I am tired and I need rest.”

Now I need a puff really badly. I took a stick and lighter and walked out of the room in the corridor, closing the door behind me.

I inhaled lungs full of the smoke in deep breath and scratched my head, thinking of all that happened inside the room. How could I know that this place will be so remote and quiet? I was new there so was Paree. I thought that I should have kept my head cool not to yell at her at least. Abhimanyu, you are so mean, you yelled so badly at your Suchismita. This vacation is going to be sour, I thought. Everyone expects their first night to be memorable, and this memory; Abhimanyu, you have to bear in your heart for life long. You could have doused the situation which you have failed to do, and now you have to bear the bitter consequences. All these thoughts were running inside my head. I heard cold bitter winds howling outside; probably it was a blizzard going on. Probably it was snowing outside. Storm outside and storm inside.

I entered the room, only to find that she has already gone asleep. Took of my track-suit jacket, tucked myself inside the blanket and moved near her. I looked down to her sleeping face. Locks came over her beautiful face; I removed those locks to have a better view of my sleeping damsel. There was small wet trail coming down the corner of her eyes till the tip of nose. I rubbed off the trail with my thumb. She moved slightly, sensing my warm breath flowing on her face. Very gently I traced over her dark whip like eyebrows with my index finger. I stooped down to kiss her rosy cheeks. Feeling my lips over her cheeks she trembled a bit. I gently rubbed my nose over her jaw-line and on her ears. I sensed that she was into deep slumber. I rested myself on the pillow, cuddling her soft serpent figure from her back, pressed my nose on her head to inhale her sweet fragrance. I put my left arm around her thin round waist and pulled her on my chest. My hand rested over her belly and I closed my eyes. She took my hand in her soft clutch, entwined her fingers around mine and brought my hand under her soft cheek to feel the warmth of my palm. I felt the soft touch of her bare bosom over my arm. So soft and creamy and warm was her skin. Her bosom was heaving slowly sending tingling sensation down my belly. I pressed my whole body on her back, took a deep breath and swooned into slumber cuddling her tightly in my arms trying to give all warmth of my body.

Chapter 4: Fire on the Snow.

---------------------------------

I felt soft fingers on my hairs, combing them gently. I opened my eyes only to find Paree’s beautiful smiling face in front of my sleepy eyes. She was sitting by my side at the side of bed. She was looking lovingly into my sleepy eyes. A soft radiance beamed all over her face. Her long tresses dancing on my chest as she has leaned over me considerably. The deep valley between her soft bosoms revealed to a great extent in front of my sleepy eyes. By that sight I felt a lump in my throat. I looked around the room, the soft rays of a beautiful dawn flooding all over the room from the big glass panes. The curtains were pushed aside, probably by her as to behold the beauty of nature. I smiled at her; she stooped down to touch my forehead with her red lips. Her soft, warm bosom touched my face and chin.

“Get up, baby prince.” as she brushed her nose over mine, softly kissing my lips. I wrapped my fingers in her long tresses and pulled her face crossly over mine to make the kiss even deeper.

She broke the kiss ---“I am very sorry about last night.”

I got up from my pillow, reclining upper half of my body on the headboard. I took her palms in mine and apologized to her ---“No, honey I am sorry. I should not have screamed at you like that last night. I should not have brought you here.”

---“You might not have screamed, but I was wrong about the place. So I am sorry for all those words last night.”

I jokingly asked her ---“So do you want to go back now?”

She threw her slender long arms around my neck and purred with honey filled voice ---“I don’t know about other places, but this place is heaven on earth.”

I put my arms around her narrow round waist and pulled her on my lap over my stretched legs. Her soft round bottoms perched on my lap sending a warm sensation all over my abdomen. She rested her whole weight over my reclining body. She was still in her sleeveless baby pink nightdress, which covered half of her heaving bosom, exposing her cream soft skin of her upper chest and soft bosom. I rubbed my nose on her cheeks.

She purred out softly ---“Mmmmmmm… This place is very very beautiful.”

---“I don’t know about the place honey, but you are looking gorgeous, your soft rosy cheeks radiating halo of love. You lips are soooo sweet.”

My left hand caressed her delicate belly over the thin cotton clothing, veiling her sensuous figure. I circled around her navel with the flat of my palm. Her soft posterior perched firmly over my lower abdomen; I sensed the heat growing inside me. Her soft bosom pressed on my chest and I could even feel her heartbeat. Warm breath of her flowed all over my face, her eyes were then half open. I sensed passion growing deep inside her heart. I pushed my face on the curve of her neck and licked her skin of her shoulder till her earlobes. I took her earlobes in my mouth gently sucking the pearl eardrop and earlobes along. Slowly I caressed all way up her belly just below the fullness of her bust. Paree sensed my palm approaching her hidden treasure. A deep warm moan came out of her red lips. She was panting lightly sensing my palm near her fullness of her soft chest. Her chest were heaving in long deep breath, she bit her lower lips and looked passionately in my eyes. Hot lusty lava was flowing all over my veins, as I pushed my face over her deep cleavage, kissing and licking those beautiful soft mounds over the top portion of her bosom. I was about to touch her bosom with the flat of my palm, just then she held my hand tightly. She nodded her head slowly, her lips beaming with a passionate smile. I looked at her with question filled eyes.

She cooed down my ears and hid her face on my shoulder ---“I feel shy, Abhi.”

I tightly embraced her ---“No one is here except you and me, so why feel shy?”

She rubbed her face on my shoulder ---“No, no, no, I feel shy in-front of you… in broad day light.”

I laughed my heart out.

---“I am feeling shy and you are laughing at me? What an evil you are? Naughty boy!”

“Ok, you felt shy, and what else you felt?” I asked her jokingly.

“No, I am not going to tell all those words, of what all I felt all over me.” She again nodded her head sideways, her face still hidden in the corner of my shoulder.

I caressed all over her back ---“Come on; baby, for once, just say as what all you felt.”

She screamed to me ---“NO NO NO …. You evil baby…. You mischievous rascal.”

My fingers traced over her cotton cloth all over her spine, from her the top of her back till below her waist. She shivered is passion all while she was hiding her face on my shoulder.

She cooed in my ears ---“I am feeling hungry, please honey can we have the breakfast?”

---“Why don’t you eat me.”

Playfully she slapped the back of my head ---“Don’t be so naughty. I am really hungry.”

She got up from my lap, leaving me high and dry. A mischievous smile beaming all over her face, sweet small dimples on her rosy cheek made her smile more sensuous. She bit her lower lips with her pearl studded upper teeth and asked me to get in bathroom to get fresh up while she orders for the breakfast. She held my hand and pulled me out of the bed and pushed me inside the bathroom. I sensed that the dawn was going to be even hotter, might be it was chilled outside the room, but the room ambience was filled up with passionate warmth of lust and desire. So I took my shaving bag along with me inside the bathroom as the side pocket contains the packet of precaution. I had to hide that in my pocket while I come out of the restroom.

It took me a while to complete my morning duty. As I came out I found Paree sitting beside the huge window, and pouring tea into the cups. She has covered her upper torso with her cream shawl which she took away from me during the wedding day.

I sat on the chair and playfully pulled Paree on my lap. She adjusted herself on my lap placing her legs across my left side and her left arm came around my neck so as to balance herself. I wrapped my right hand behind her narrow waist to make her comfortably nest across my lap.

______________________________

She looked at me with a bit mischief in her eyes ---“Not now Abhi, you are terrible.”

“Ummm…. Please …. One small kiss ….” I pleaded.

She planted a butterfly kiss on my forehead ---“I will feed you as I did when you were baby.”

“Ummm….. My gorgeous Paree” I nudged my nose on the side of her bosom and armpit “What are you going to feed me?”. Her armpit was shaved clean smooth as satin.

---“Dhuutttt….. You mischief, stop doing all these and eat” as she brought the sandwich to my mouth.

As I chewed the sandwich between my teeth, she pointed outwards. For the first time I looked out of the window to behold the extreme beauty of the Mother Nature. There was a long patch of flat terrain in front of the hotel, reaching out till long distance. On the left hand side raised a small hill bereft of any trees, covered with small grasses and shrubs. At the end of the stretch there was a snow covered peak. Last night it has snowed so the green stretch was covered with patches of snow. On the other side of the valley were high mountains covered with cedar and pine trees. Snow was all over the tree tops, making the valley more beautiful. It was crystal clear sky above the background of the mountains. Cutting through the valley was Bapsa River. We could hear the stream flowing through the boulders of the river bed. For the first time I saw a snow peaked mountain so near to me, in my whole life.

Paree was pointing to that mountain ---“See, how beautiful and peaceful place is this.”

I said ---“So, what about all your curses.”

---“You also didn’t know about this place, right?”

I nodded my head ---“Yes, but I thought …..”

“Ok, whatever happened last night; let us forget all those.” She smiled at me.

While we finished the breakfast, she was all beaming with praise of the place and how beautiful was the hills and trees and snow and river. I felt happy to find my Paree to be chirpy again. I wrapped both my arms around her waist. She took my face between her palms and rubbed her chiselled nose tip on mine. Her sweet soft lips brushed on mine.

She pinched my cheek ---“Thank you, thank you thank you…. For bringing me here.”

I took right left palm in my left hand and touched her soft fingers with my lips. Gently I kissed her flat of palm.

“Being again naughty, are you?” She beamed her lustrous smile at me. Slowly I took her fingers one by one inside my mouth sucking her finger from the base till tip. My sucking send passionate shivers down her spine. I slowly took off her shawl over her body, and she wrapped her left arm around my shoulder, pulling my head close to her heaving bosom. I left her hand from my clutch and let that graze over her soft belly, caressing gently over the roundness around her deep navel. My right hand was busy caressing her back all along her spine. I pushed my face in the contours of her armpit, gently rubbing the smooth skin with my nose. She felt my hot breath on her skin. She clutched my hairs and pulled my face and planted a deep kiss across. Her tongue lashed out of her mouth licking my upper lips. She was gently biting my lower lips with her teeth, sending warm goose bumps all over my skin. I put my left palm over her slender thighs and rubbed her smoothness over the cotton trying to feel her softness and warmth. I pulled her by her thighs more towards me; her soft plump bottom perched heavily over my lower abdomen. She felt my growing warmth under her soft bottom. Her breath grew warmer with my full length of caressing on her thighs, from her knees till the juncture of her loins. She moaned in passion as she broke the prolonged kiss and looked deeply into my hungry eyes. As if she was beckoning me to her, to delve into the folds of dark pleasure.

I moaned out those three loving words to her ---“I LOVE YOU.”

Her gaze burned deep inside my heart. “I was dying to hear those words.” She moaned out softly. “What took you so long to express? Abhi.”

---“I LOVE YOU, HONEY. I am mad for you.”

Corner of her eyes glistened a bit ---“I LOVE YOU TOO, ABHI. I love you from the abyss of my bleeding heart. I can’t think of my life without you.”

I snaked out my tongue and licked her upper lips slowly.

---“Hold me tightly, Abhi. I don’t want to squander off in a world without you.”

On hearing those words, the burning lava inside me, died down instead of that a halo of pure love filled my heart. I rubbed the wet tip of my tongue just below her nose.

______________________________



I hugged her with my full strength, as if the Armageddon is approaching and she was the only hope who can save my life forever.

---“I won’t leave you, Paree. Never.”

---“Promise me that you will not let me squander off alone in this dark world.”

---“I promise you, Paree.”

We sat there hugging each other for quiet sometime, none of us saying anything, just enjoying each other’s deep embrace and warmth of love.

I cooed in her ears ---“You want to stay like this for whole day; Honey or you have something in your mind?”

---“I want to bask in your warmth of love and embrace. I want to fill this love till the brim of my heart.”

She etched “I LOVE YOU” on my upper chest with her sharp fingernails of her index finger.

I whispered to her ears in inaudible purr ---“I LOVE YOU TOO.”

She then etched her name, sending burning sensation all over my chest.

All her activities were creating ripples on my spine. The ambience of the room was getting hotter and hotter with our caresses and hugs.

“Mmmmm…… so sweet….” As I brought my hand on her nape and held her back of head and took a fist full of her hairs pulled her face across mine and planted a wet kiss on her lips. Her full bosoms rubbed across my chest. I could feel her warmth and supple bosom through that flimsy dress of hers, as if those were some mass of pure butter smeared on my chest. I felt her whole back from the end of her spine down below till her nape, it grazed smoothly and then for the first time I noticed that under her flimsy cloth veiling her sensuous figure, she was as stark as EVE. The simple thought made me hot, I felt that the volcano which died down inside me just few moments ago, again became dormant. She lashed out her snaky tongue, pink velvet tip traced over my nose till the bridge. A warm breadth gushed out of my half opened lips.

---“I want to make your morning even hotter, Darling.”

She looked at me, there was a inquisition in her eyes as if asking me how am I going to make her morning hotter?

I smiled at her and pushed my left arm below her knees and pulled her up, while my right hand supported over her back. I stood up from the chair, carrying her on my lap to the master bed. She looked passionately into my eyes as if asking me what I was going to do. As soon I placed her on the bed, she freed herself from my embrace and pulled the blanket to cover herself till her nose. There was fire in her eyes, passionate fire. She was panting heavily, which created waves over her beautiful soft bosom. I took off my vest, and was only in my tracksuit trousers. I pulled the blanket trying to uncover her. She held the other end tightly in her clutch and nodded her head, all time looking at me with her big black eyes. Her face was blushing red.

She moaned out my name ---“Abhiiiii……”

“What?” as I tried to pull off the blanket covering her. She nodded her head gently.

---“I feel very shy, honey. Why have you taken off your vest? What are you going to do?”

I kneeled on the floor by the end of the bed and gently put my right hand inside the blanket and caressed her left feet. Smooth skin felt awesome on my palm. I removed the blanket slowly to take her foot out of the heavy covering.

Cream satin skin, soft as silk.

I pulled up her foot and placed on my bare chest just where my heart was.

What a beautiful paw, soft and curvy. I smelled on her toe and took her toe in my deluged mouth, sucking the whole toe in my mouth.

She cried out ---“Ufff…. You are killing me ….. ABHIIIIII ….”

With my left hand, I gently removed the end of her dress and her beautiful calf came in view. I caressed her calf below her shin gently through the whole length, from her ankle till her bend of knee. Her calf was bereft of any tendrils, my palm grazed up down very slowly all the length. Each pores of her calf rose a bit and felt awesome in my touch.

She was trembling gently as if a twig is flowing in a morning autumn breeze.

I left sucking her toe and concentrated on grazing my lips over her soft foot. I felt her calf muscles getting tensed with my touch of my wet lips. Soft moans of passion emanated from Paree parted lips. She had her eyes tightly closed and clutched the end of blanket and pressed her fist over her heart.

______________________________

---“Mmmmmmm….. ABHIIIII….. Unbearable…… Honey, I will die if you don’t leave my foot.”

I pulled her foot little further and placed my lips on her ankle. She could not bear all these sensation more and she rolled on the bed covering her with the heavy blanket and hid her face on the soft white pillow. Her back was heaving up and down. Her curves under the blanket were like SINE curves of oscilloscope.

I crawled on my fours towards her and lied down next to her.

Very slowly, removed the blanket from her back.

The warm sensation made her shivering intense as her broad back came out in open.

Gently I removed her hairs from her back to the other side.

Her face was hidden on pillow; she has clutched the sides of the pillow in some hot anticipation.

I grazed my fingernails over her small round shoulder, pushing her thin straps of her flimsy dress to slide from her round shoulder to her upper arm.

She took out face, still her eyes tightly closed, lips half open, rested her chin on the pillow, head turned back a bit.

I leaned down; my lips touched her smooth skin of her spine.

She shivered and moaned out softly ---“Mmmmmmm….. You are killing me, Honey. I am going to die.”

My volcanic lava was making its way from my navel and moving upwards.

Warm breaths from my nostrils send passionate beads into her heart.

I lied down on the bed pulling her sensuous figure over mine. I again wrapped my arms around her thin round waist. She covered our entwined bodies under the blanket.

Her slender thighs rested on both side of my waist. Full frontal part of her whole length of her serpentine curvaceous figure pressed firmly over mine. Every square inch of our body enjoying each other warmth.

Her dress curled upwards till her knees.

Her toes and fingers of her feet scratching my feet.

Her slender soft thighs felt awesome on both sides of my waist.

Soft heaving belly pressed on mine.

I looked into her face with a fire of passion burning inside me. She has still kept her eyes closed.

Warm breath of hers flowing all over my face, coming out of her slightly parted lips.

Her elbows rested on the pillow on both sides of my head.

Her forehead rested on mine, her lips touching mine very lightly.

My fingers grazed firmly all over from the base of her spine till her nape. I took some time to dug and massage her spine with the tip of my fingers.

I asked her ---“Open your eyes, Honey.”

She shook her head gently ---“NO…. Abhi.”

Her face was blushing red in burning desire.

Her huffs were growing stronger and hotter.

My left hand clutched her back of her head and took a fist full of her long tresses and pulled her head back. Her slender neck was above my burning lips. I traced the tip of my tongue on her neck and shoulder bone.

I bit her shoulder bone gently; creamy skin turned rosy.

Paree screamed out---“Uffffff… NOOOOO….. Don’t do, Please…”

I whispered ---“I LOVE YOU PAREE……”

Her eyes opened gently, unfurling her eyelids as if a lotus just has blossomed.

Her glance burning in passion, lips quivering ---“What are you going to do? You mischievous rascal.”

---“Don’t be so innocent honey.”

---“You are being very naughty with me now. My heart is beating very loudly.”

---“I can feel that, Paree. What else you can feel Baby, tell me.”

---“I will not say anything, you naughty rascal.”

Naughtily I purred out ---“Please, honey, please.”

She hit my forehead with hers playfully.

My hand approached her plump bottoms. Very gently I pulled her flimsy cloth to her waist.

A warm gasp came out of her lips ---“Aahhhhhhh……..” as she felt my warm palms over her bare skin of her soft hot bottoms.

My body stiffened as I touched those creamy dough.

Pores unfurled on every inch of her body.

We got totally engrossed in the heat of passion.

There were only soft moans and hot breaths all inside the room. Snow caught fire that day, as there was no turning back now.

We both dived into the abyss of passion entangled and entwined in our arms and legs.

Volcano erupted in that room, beside the bank of River Beas, in the chilled January morning.

Burning hot lava flowed from each pores of our body.

We intruded into the Garden of Eden, took the bite of the red apple and deluged ourselves in our arms.

It was a burning experience mixed with bit of pain and full of pleasure, for the first time for both of us.

The stalactites of ice outside the window were now dripping in the rays of sun. Mid day was approaching near. The room was engulfed with soft rays of winter daylight.

We lied down on the huge bed, waves of passion departing gradually making a way for aurora of love in our hearts. Paree was on my right side, with her head resting on my chest. My right arm around her back caressing her curve of her waist till her upper arms. She was etching my chest with her fingernails very gently and playfully. I smelled her head deeply. My right leg was between her thighs. My eve was in her full glory in my arms. We were covered under the blanket still.

Not for one moment Paree let the blanket to go off our bodies during the whole time we were playing inside the Garden of Eden.

She purred out after a long time ---“You are very naughty. Mischievous rascal, cunning as fox.”

I asked her ---“Why?”

---“You anticipated all these would happen, so you brought the packet with you.”

I laughed out. She slapped hard on my chest.

I asked her ---“How you felt?”

Paree blushed crimson red ---“Mmmmmmm….. You naughty boy. If you ask this again I am not going to talk to you.” She hid her face under my neck.

I traced her skin and curves with my fingernails.

She trembled a little---“Don’t do that to me.”

After sometime she again purred ---“This place is very beautiful.”

---“Yeah, but nothing is more beautiful and sensuous than you, Honey. You are so wet and soft and sweet, that I was going to die.”

Again a small slap landed on my chest---“Will you stop telling all those words, else I will just go away.”

I hugged her closely; her bare knee and thigh touched my lower belly.

She purred again ---“What if we build a cottage on that hill, surrounded by cedar and pine trees. There will be a small patch of garden in front of our house, full of dahlias and chrysanthemums and roses and many more.”

---“So sweet of you honey.”

---“There will be a swing on the lawn and we will sip our morning tea there gazing to the flowing Beas water.”

---“To sip the tea, we need to money to buy that first, honey.”

“You are not at all romantic. Let me go.” There was a veiled anger in her voice.

I kissed her head ---“Oh! Baby, I am sorry to wake you up from your beautiful dream.”

Again there was a bit silence.

---“Are we going to stay here for whole of the vacation or we will go somewhere else?”

---“I don’t know about the whole vacation, but at least for now I want to stay in your embrace like this and enjoy you all again.”

Now the slap landed hard on my cheek instead of chest ---“You are unbearable, Rascal. Leave me.”

She tried to free herself from my tight embrace but failed to do so. Her wriggling movements felt warmer all over my lower part of body.

I asked her ---“Do you want to spend the whole vacation in Chitkul or go somewhere else.”

---“This place is beautiful. Are there any other place we can go?”

---“I don’t know baby, I have to check.”

---“I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH Abhi.”

“I love you too honey.” As I again pulled her on top of me, she rested herself without any hesitation, comfortably perching on my body, snuggled closely to my chest.

---“Abhi ….”

---“What?”

---“I want to take a bath and get fresh.”

---“Who is stopping you baby, go and take your bath.”

“Not like this.” She stretched her arm over my head to pick up her night dress, which was piled up by the headboard.

I held her cloth ---“Just go, honey, why you need this now?”

---“I feel shy. Please let me wear this.”

I shook my head---“Na na …..”

Again a small slap on my face ---“Let this go or else….”

---“Or else what?”

She smiled at me naughtily ---“I won’t let you touch me again.”

Paree slide down by my side and slide her dress over her luscious figure. Before getting out of the blanket and bed, she leaned over my face and kissed my lips. I rested both my arms behind my head as I pulled myself to recline over the headboard. I looked at her swaying figure as she took her dresses from the cupboard and entered the bathroom. Before entering the bathroom, she brought her index finger to her lips and kissed it and waved it to me. This was her signature flying kiss.

Chapter 5: Journey continued

-----------------------------------


The view of Chitkul was breathtaking. Snow patches covered the small piece of farm land in front of our hotel. The trees on the left bank of River Beas were covered with bits of snow. The sun was overhead already. Chill winds blowing from the river side. There was a high snow peaked mountain in front of us, few kilometers away. The village was a very small one, very few huts, only two or three hotels which remain closed during the winter season. Very few tourists delve into this heaven. There was an ITBP check post few kilometers away from the Chitkul. Tourist are allowed to go till that place, beyond that comes China border, bordering Tibet region.

We were strolling down the narrow path to the bank of the river, hand in hand, fingers entwined. Paree was looking beautiful in her turquoise blue saree. She had her white long jacket over her to fend off the chill winds. The cream shawl was wrapped around her neck as a muffler. Her chiseled nose tip glistened in the sunrays. She was wearing a pair of emerald ear-rings matching the colour of her saree. She was smiling beautifully at me all the time taking my left arm in her embrace. The dimples dug on her soft rosy cheeks. A small lock of her jade black tress, floated over her left cheek creating a small veil on her rosy cheek. Long dark eyelashes adorned her beautiful lotus shaped eyes.

We had already finished our lunch before trotting down the lane. During the luncheon, we had light conversation about ourselves, our past, our college days and all. I came to know that her favourite colour was turquoise blue. She likes to read poems of Rabindranath Tagore and short stories of SarathChandra chatterjee. SarathChandra Chatterjee was also my favourite writer. Her favourite novel of all times was “Srikanto” written by SarathChandra Chatterjee which was also similar to mine. She posses a great affinity in singing and I have noticed on the bus during the wedding day that her voice was sweet and also there was a passion in it. It makes you feel tipsy as you hear her sing. I noticed a cut just on her chin just below the curve, she told me that one day when she was about nine or ten years old probably, she fell from a mango tree and cut her forehead. She loves songs of Asha Bhonsle . We talked lots about ourselves.

Balwinder asked me whether we will be going somewhere or not, to that I responded that we will be staying there for that day. Before taking to stroll out, I checked with the manager as what all places we can trot off, was there any place for shopping or not. The manager informed us that few kilometers from the Karcham Bridge and about four hours journey from Chitkul there is a place called Kalpa, which was also very beautiful. We can do shopping there or at Recong Peo and beyond that was the Spiti Valley, hidden deep inside the cold desert region of The Great Himalayas. We can go till Nako if the road permits us and we can take a trip till there within the stipulated time. He also cautioned us that Nako would be at more height than Chitkul, perched above eleven thousand feet above sea level, the temperature would be below freezing point. On hearing all those, Paree’s face gleamed in joy, as if she has smelled an adventure on our trip.

By the side of the river we sat on a huge boulder, chilled winds blowing on us. I pulled her over my lap and we hugged each other with all our might to enjoy our warmth.

She said in a whispering voice ---“The River is singing.”

I looked into her face ---“What if we don’t go back? No one knows that we are here in this secluded place.”

She looked in my eyes resting her head on my chest---“Life is not a movie, Abhi. We both have caring families back there, anxiously waiting for our return.”

---“I feel that my Mom doesn’t like me much.”

---“Why say that?”

---“She is very strict with me and after you came in her life again, I feel more jealous. She always talks about you only.”

She smiled naughtily ---“Oh! Don’t be so jealous. It is my ChotoMa.”

---“I know, it is your ChotoMa but even she always tries to compare the affections by the money she has spend on me. She always tries to express that as she has spent a lot of money for my studies so I have to obey their every order.”

Paree sensed that the weather due to my conversation may turn gloom, so she tried to talk of something else.

---“Hey, Abhi will we be going further or spend the whole vacation here only?”

A deep breath came out; I looked into her face with a smile ---“Whatever my queen suggests. If you want to go further we will go and if you want to stay here then also I have no problem. Today is Monday only, we can stay here for two more nights and do our shopping at Recong Peo on Wednesday and move to Nako. We can start our return journey on Saturday and stay somewhere in between and reach Kalka on Sunday. What do you think of this plan?”

---“Plan seems to be very interesting.”

After quiet sometime as we saw the sun setting behind the snow peak we returned to our hotel. There was no TV to watch, nothing to do, feeling bored. We have to lock ourselves inside the room as the chilled winds were blowing outside. The temperature might have plunged below freezing level. Paree was all in praise of this place. She was chirping like cuckoo all the time describing her feelings and dream about that place. Fortunately the room had two electric heaters to keep us warm and cozy. The manager asked whether we want to have chicken in our dinner or not, to which Paree answered no, she will have vegetarian food only. I looked at her inquisitively.

She asked me ---“Why are you looking at me like that?”

---“What is this? Monday vegetarian food, what kind of Drama?”

She nodded her head and pinched on my cheek---“This is for you, Monday Puja for Lord Shiva. Till the day ……”

She could not finish her sentence, her voice got bit choked, her eyes glistened a bit she tried to smear a faint smile on her lips.

After dinner we had to retire. Paree has changed to her same baby pink cotton nightdress and woolen gown to fend off the chilly weather. She was seated on a stool in-front of the mirror gently applying some cream on her face and arms. Sometimes glancing on the reflection at me, our eyes met in soft smile. I was reclining on the bed tucked myself under the blanket already. I squeezed my lips to express a kiss at her. She waved her hand asked me to wait. I took out my diary and penned down few experiences of our trip. Generally I don’t keep a diary or write anything, but I felt that this experience should be penned down somewhere. Maybe as we get older we can read this out and share our reminiscences in our old days.

Paree took off her gown and snuggled beside me on my left side, resting her head on my chest with her left arm around my waist. I felt her warm sensuous frame hugging me close to her bosom.

---“What are you writing?”

---“Experience of this trip.”

---“Why are you writing, do you keep a diary always?”

---“Not actually, but I felt as we get older we might read this and enjoy the beads of this beautiful reminiscence.”

“So sweet.” After a little pause --- “As we get old, can we come here again? I want a cottage here, on that mountain, surrounded by flowers and a huge lawn in-front of it.”

______________________________



I closed the diary and put my left arm behind her back, pulled her more into my chest; her heaving soft bosom touching my bare chest. Her night dress was open at the front considerably and I could feel her warm skin on mine, sending tingling sensation all over me. I traced her curves of her sides and gently kneading her soft flesh of her waist. She etched something on my chest with her sharp fingernails.

She whispered ---“When you were a baby, I used to carry you on my lap and roam around the house. I have very hazy memories of those days. But few of the instances I can still remember.”

I smelled her head as I brushed my nose on her hairs. Her tresses came down over her face, as if cloud descended on the moon. With my finger I removed her tresses and locks so that I can devour her beauty at whole.

Paree continued ---“I remember, one day, you were probably three years old and I was five, walking and running all over the house; babbling like a little bird; full of nonsense. I tugged you with me to the bank of the pond behind the house. There I showed you that I have build a small play house for both of us to play. As you were only a baby then, you could not understand that and you broke that. I screamed a lot and hit you; you fell on the ground crying. Indrani Di came running and started cursing me for hitting you. She took you with her. I was there alone, crying my heart out. ChotoMa heard my cries and came there. She took me on her lap and persuaded me that when we both will be older, you will build a house for me. I stopped crying further and snuggled comfortably on her lap.”

I asked “So……”

With a glistening look in her eyes she said---“So, Abhi, I feel, the time has come that you build the house for me.”

I patted on her soft rosy cheek ---“Sure, I will build a home for us.” Ignoring all the dark clouds that may surround our relationship in our future, I promised her that I will build a home for her. Stones and bricks can make a house but to build a home one needs love, and that I had in my arms.

Nothing much happened during the night, as we hugged and cuddled each other to retire in a deep slumber.

Next two days passed, we deluged ourselves in each other arms.

We trotted freely into the Garden of Eden, but always there was a veil over her. I was unable to devour my Eve’s complete beauty due to her apt shyness and the blanket. As time passed we felt as a one soul beating inside two hearts, inseparable by any force. I was willing to take the world if they pose any threat against us. Each morning I felt Paree waking up as a new damsel. Each time I tasted her luscious lips, her nectar felt sweeter than before. Each moment her glances were more intense and more passionate than before. Her touches and her contours were more sensuous with every passing moment. Each cuddle and hug got stronger, caressing and fondling more intense. Fluid folds of pleasure beckoned my staunch love deeper in to her, delving in to abyss of the romantic ocean. Every pore of our bodies mingled each droplet of sweat and nectar emanated from our hugs and caresses.

On Thursday early morning we started from Chitkul. Paree looked behind as our SUV left the place climbing up the narrow trail back to the Karcham Bridge. I was in my jeans and a heavy jacket. Paree wore a Sambalpuri cotton salwar suit and her white long jacket. I cautioned her that it would be much colder in Nako than what in Chitkul. But she was willing to have the trip. Her ears were adorned with a long gold ear-ring with small rubies fitted. As when she was nodding her head the earrings swayed.

The day was sunny; Balwinder was aptly driving the car through the narrow serpentine curves. By the time we reached Powari it was about eleven o’clock, we had to fill diesel as there would be no more filling stations after that. We got down at Recong Peo for some shopping, as Paree was adamant to take something for her ChotoMa and her mom. We all are very well aware off when a lady goes for shopping what happens to the partner. He simply carries the bags and stand by her side. Same happened to me also.

At one shop, she was looking at a stroll to buy for herself.

“How is this?” She asked me.

“This is fine; it will go well with your complexion.” I expressed my feelings as I saw that it was a black piece of cloth with blue and green embroidery on it. I felt it will go very well with her creamy complexion.

She did not like it ---“No, this is not a good one.” She started showing me few more. I looked up at the blue sky overhead and scratched my head every time she showed me. My responses were bit low, she felt.

______________________________



So she angrily said ---“You are not looking at me at all and nodding with every piece of cloth I am showing to you. Choose one for me.”

Oh! God, the hardest part comes now. “Paree, you have to wear so you choose. How come I will know what is in your mind?”

It was like I was stuck between the Devil and the Dead Sea.

Paree got bit annoyed and choose a stroll for herself. She asked me whether I want to buy something for my mom or not. I answered her that I generally don’t do any shopping for parents.

After shopping I sneaked out asking Paree to wait in the car. I bought a small bronze statue of Laughing Buddha to present her and concealed that in my jacket pocket so that I could surprise her at night once we reach Nako.

We had our lunch at Recong Peo and started our onward journey to higher lands. It was already one o’clock as we started from there. Balwinder informed us that it will take about more two to three hours to reach Nako if the condition of the road was good. After Spello, the hills around us changed. It was all brown in color, crumbling down, bereft of any plants. The road condition was not so good. Balwinder was driving quietly, concentrating on the pebbles and boulders on the road. The Satluj River was flowing along left side of the road.

Paree has pulled her feet up on the seat snuggling close to my left side with her arms clutching around my left hand. With her big black eyes she was intently devouring the stark beauty of the Mother Nature. By the time we reached Khab Bridge, Paree exclaimed on seeing two rivers joining there.

She asked me ---“What is this river?”

I pointed to the other river cutting from the deep gorger between two hills---“That is Spiti River.”

She exclaimed at me ---“How come you know all these? I am sure you have come here before and you are not telling me.”

---“No, honey, I just studied tourist books and maps before coming here. That’s all, believe me.”

She kissed my cheek, her soft lips felt awesome after a long time since we started our journey.

---“I believe in every words of your, my baby prince.”

In a veiled annoyance in my voice ---“Don’t call me baby prince, I am not a baby now.”

She squeezed my cheeks with between her thumb and index finger---“You will always be my baby prince.”

I pulled her more into me and caressed her neck with my left palm.

To tease her more I whispered in her ears ---“Even after all those steamy night action?” I winked at her.

She slapped on my leg with a bit of irk ---“Shoo…. I won’t talk to you.”

I nudged her and whispered in her ears to tease her more---“You are sweet all over. I can’t keep my hands off your sensuous figure.”

---“Will you stop, saying all these naughty things, or I will get down here and jump in that river.”

I laughed my heart out ---“Oh! Baby is feeling shy.” I put my palm on her cheek to turn her head towards me.

Her lips came within inches reach of mine.

She slapped again on my leg ---“Stop doing this, we are in a car.”

---“Ok baba, but what am I going to get?”

---“Nothing as of now.”

As our car crossed the iron bridge at Khab, the road was quiet dangerous. Hills have been carved to make the road. The stone ceiling was hanging precariously overhead. On seeing that, Paree clutched my arms in some fear in her deep black eyes. To pacify her I had to hug her close to me. After few meters down the road we saw a steep ascend, the road zig-zag by the side of the barren hill till the top; probably a steep climb of three to four thousand feet. Paree’s beautiful eyes widened in an unknown fear. Her heartbeat grew faster, which could be noticed as her beautiful bosom heaved under her heavy jacket. She clutched my left arm which was around her neck, to her bosom very tightly. I could feel her smooth skin having goose bumps all over.

She exclaimed at me ---“This is dangerously beautiful. Can we stop at the top of the mountain? I want to have a better look of the road and river flowing down.”

Balwinder noted Paree’s fear. He spoke ---“Madam, don’t worry about anything while I am driving the car. (Bhabi ji, tussi fikar na karoo, jab taak Ballu gaddi chala raha haii.)”

Paree could understand only Bhabiji and nothing else so she looked at me asking me what has he told, I translated to her as what he said. This time Paree was not annoyed on hearing Balwinder calling her as “Bhabiji”. She smiled thankfully at Balwinder.

______________________________



At the top, the car stopped, we both got down to view the cold barren beauty of Mother Nature. Paree exclaimed, pointing to the thin serpentine river down below. Her face was beaming with an exclaim smile.

She said to me ---“I think no person delves into these barren lands.”

I nodded as I felt so.

As we were about to enter the Village Nako, we observed that by the side of the road, colourful flags were fluttering in the strong winds. Paree asked me about those flags, but I was not aware of those at that time. (Later I came to know that those were Buddhist prayer Flags.)

By the time we reached Nako, it was four in the evening. Sun was glowing still in the west behind the high mountains. Chilling winds blowing around us. We looked out around us and observed that the hills around us has dwarfed. We have gained a lot of height. Nako was a small village perched on the lap of a high peak, as if someone has placed it on plain of the peak. Very few trees around the village, but we found that there were fields around the village. We came to know that few people farm on those lands, growing potatoes and peas and cabbages, which are transported to markets of New Delhi.

It was not at all hard to find accommodation as there was not a single tourist in that place. The manager exclaimed at us asking us that how we came to this region during this time of the year. I asked him that whether it snows in Nako or not? He answered that it doesn’t snow, but the nights will be very cold. We might need some firewood burning in our room in the fireplace, although the room has two electric heaters. Paree exclaimed to his answer, asking about the firewood. We came to know that, the electricity is a major problem in this part of the country.

I thought, after dinner as we retire to bed, I will present the Laughing Buddha to Paree. But the journey and the chilled weather had taken a heavy toll on her. She was very tired and could not even have her dinner properly. I got bit tensed as the nearest habitable town was Recong Peo which was about three hours journey. Fortunately I always carry medicine along with me. She hit the pillow as soon as she climbed under the blanket.

Paree, in a clattering voice ---“I am feeling very cold.”

---“Wait, I will try something to make your night warmer.”

She screamed at me anticipating that I will be again naughty with her---“Not again, you rascal. I am damn tired I want to sleep.”

I spoke in a teasing voice ---“See, it is you who always think of those naughty activities.”

“Your dirty mind is always filled with that so….” Paree hissed out. “You mischievous rascal, always sneak out for pecks and pats anywhere anytime.”

I asked for some mustard oil from the manager and boiled it in the fire of a candle, took some on my palms and applied on her foot to make her warm.

---“Baby, I didn’t mean to make you warm like that.”

She was pacified while I was kneeling on the floor at the end of the bed with her foot in my hand.

---“You are my baby prince. I knew you would take care of me.”

“You feet are very beautiful, honey” as I blew hot air on her feet from my mouth.

She was regaining her lost temperament.

I climbed on the bed and asked her to open her night dress, so that I could apply the warm oil on her back. She looked at me inquisitively as if saying “Oh No Not Again”. I assured her that I won’t bother her, but she was not at all convinced. She wrapped the blanket and pulled me inside and placed my head between her heaving soft bosoms. I nestled my face on her soft chest; softly kissing the warm side flesh of her bust and wrapped my arms around her torso. She combed my hairs with her thin fingers till we both swooned into slumber.

The Friday morning was a warm one. After breakfast, I asked the manager as what all we can look around Nako. The manager told us that there was a beautiful Buddhist monastery and a small lake.

We looked around the place. The lake was quiet small, fill with light green water and surrounded by small trees. There were high mountains at the back side of the village. There were few white tombs at some height. Paree pointed to those tombs and asked me as what are those. We came to know later that those were Stupas build by old monks. The Buddhist monastery was a very small one. The new building was build from the funds of some Austrian foundation. I thought that our country pays less heed to these dying lands and this monastery is dependent on foreign funds for development. The monastery was situated on the lap of the mountain on a flat field. The deep canyon at the end of the monastery made the landscape more beautiful. Nako village looked like an oasis in this barren cold desert, surrounded by high barren brown mountains and few plants and trees.

[usaiha2]

I asked Paree, pointing to the Stupas whether she would like to have a small trekking to that place.


Paree exclaimed on my suggestion ---“Why not, I want to devour the beauty of this place to my brim of my heart.”

“Sure, let us walk.” I said her.

“Next year summer we will come here again and have a long vacation and tour all the places that we are leaving unseen.” She said to me with a dazzling smile.

I took her in my embrace while we climbed the hill ---“Sure, we will come here again.”

As we reached the halfway of the path to the Stupas, we were huffing and panting. We were from plain lands, have not treaded to hills till then. We could not find any person anywhere. Everything around us was so quiet and calm as if we are alone in this barren paradise.

As we reached the Stupa, I clenched my fist and threw my arms in the air and shouted my heart out ---“I LOVE YOU, PAREE.”

She wrapped her arms from my behind and put her palms flat on my chest, resting her head on my back. I could feel her softness on my back. She rubbed her face on my back over my jacket and said in a low voice “I LOVE YOU TOO, ABHI.”

I turned towards her and hugged her close to my chest ---“I am thankful to you to come with me. This trip will go down my memory lane for my whole life.”

She looked up at my face; I took her face between my palms. My warm palms felt awesome with the touch of her warm soft skin of her cheeks. She pulled herself on her toe to reach out to my face. I placed my hands below her bottoms and pulled her feet off the ground so as to minimize the span between our wanton lips. She flanked both her arms around my neck to support herself as her feet was in the air and her quivering sweet lips crashed crossly over mine. She sucked air out of my mouth as our tongue played with each other. Our smooch lit a fire in that cold mountain top. Her fingers were combing my hairs in apt frenzy. Our eyes were closed, so as to concentrate wholly on the wet passionate smooch. Neither of us, willing to break off the romantic kiss. I gently put her down on the ground without letting loose my embrace. She was so engrossed in the smooch that did not even tried to break our locked lips. Her teeth were biting my lower lips gently chewing the mass of soft flesh. I took her upper lips between my teeth, chewed the velvet flesh sucking it inside my mouth. After quiet sometime, she let my lips unsaddled from hers so as to catch the breath. We both were panting hard, in the heat of passion. I felt few sweat beads on her nose tip. All my warm hugs and frenzied caresses have ignited the fire within her. There was a lustrous look beaming all over her face. My face was deluged in her warm breath.

I whispered in her ears ---“Shall we go back honey?”

She smiled mischievously at me, sensing that the passionate fire at Nako has crossed the barren mountains and we need to surrender ourselves in our arms.

“Do you have to play football after every kiss?”. Oh! God, she is mentioning our lovemaking act as football play in code words, good enough.

While descending the downhill I said to her ---“I can’t take off my hands from those luscious globes and lovely figure of yours.”

---“You are really unbearable.”

“None can resist if they get such a beautiful playground, Honey.” I rubbed my left hand over her fleshy backside caressing her over churidar.

My action made her bit annoying. She scolded me ---“Oh! God, now you are really intolerable. You are fondling me in the open. How dare you do that?” She slapped me hard on my face. “I am not going to talk to you and you can’t touch me for the rest of the trip.” Saying so, she ran down the lane towards the hotel, with a mischievous smile on her face, as if saying to me “Catch me if you can.”

After lunch we sat idly on the balcony, soaking ourselves in the soft sunrays. I asked her whether she wants to take a walk around the village again. She negated my suggestion and pleaded me to be seated next to her.

She asked me ---“Tomorrow, where will we be going?”

---“We will start our journey back. I don’t think we can reach Shimla or Kalka by tomorrow, so wherever there will be nightfall, we will stay in a hotel.”

______________________________



On hearing, that we have to go back, Paree’s face became bit gloom. She came near me and sat across my lap, dangling her legs on my right side. I put my left arm behind her back to support her torso and she wrapped her arms around my neck. I placed my right hand around her slender waist, so that she could comfortably perch across my lap.

“All these are dream to me. What if, if I lose you?” she said with a faint smile on her lips.

“Please don’t be emotional, else I will carry you to the lake and throw you there” Jokingly I said her, to dilute the ambience.

She pulled my face over her soft bosom and rubbed her cheeks on my head. We enjoyed the setting sun, behind the mountains, cuddling each other in our arms.

The chilled weather made the ambience hot inside the room after dark. The electricity had gone, so we had to light the fire woods to keep ourselves warm. In the dark room and in the reddish yellow light of the burning fire, Paree looked like a golden statue with Midas touch; smooth creamy skin, glowing in the dark and in the halo of the fire. She has taken off her woolen gown and was wearing a half-sleeve night dress of red colour. The clothing was of full length covering till her ankles. The cloth was of vest fabric and was silhouette hugging, revealing her every small curves and contours of her sensuous physique, as if that was her second skin. The flimsy fabric, hugged her small round belly, revealed her deep navel at the centre of the plateau. The plateau of her round belly rose above, till the base of her twin pin pointed peaks. Three buttons in-front of her flimsy material clothing was open. In the light of fire and shade her smooth soft skin of her luscious peaks were glittering as gold. The sight of my Damsel was too much overwhelming for me to control my breath. She was intently looking at me all while as I was silently devouring her hidden beauty.

I kneeled down on one knee in-front of her, took out the gift packet from my jacket pocket. I took her left hand in my right, and placed the packet on her palm.

She looked at me with an interrogative glance “What is this?”

I gestured her to open that. She unwrapped the packet to find the small bronze Laughing Buddha statue.

I whispered ---“I LOVE YOU!”

I smelled her back of her palm and rubbed my nose over those blue veins.

She looked at me with a thankful look and said to me ---“But I have not bought any present for you.”

I left her hand and crawled towards her on my knees, threw my arms around her waist and kissed over her deep navel over that flimsy fabric. Her soft fingers came over my head combing my disheveled hairs gently.

I whispered as I pressed my cheek over her soft smooth round belly ---“I have got my present in my arms, already Honey.”

My shaving kit was lying on the table; she reached out my shaving kit and took out my razor. I looked up at her face, squeezing my eyebrows as if asking “What are you going to do with my razor?”

All of a sudden she pierced the tip of her index finger of left hand. I was taken aback by her action. All the time she was smiling with her glistening eyes.

I yelled out at her ---“What have you done, you insane girl?” and I took her finger in my mouth and sucked her oozing blood.

Slowly she knelt down in-front of me; all the while I was sucking the blood and looking into her deep black eyes. She patted my cheek and whispered inaudible ---“This is what I wanted. I wanted you to suck my blood, so that it will go into you and get mingled in your veins and traces of mine remains with you forever.”

Those words seemed to be a painful melody from a distant flute. I felt a choked lump growing in my throat, my vision got flooded, my heart ruptured.

She placed her palms on both side of my head and pressed on her soft bosom, I wrapped my arms around her thin waist hugging her very tightly as my eyes were flooding. She consoled me by caressing my back with her right hand and said to me ---“My sweet baby prince, don’t cry. Don’t be emotional. You are sweet little baby prince.”

Her voice was also choked with emotion.

In her quivering voice ---“I am here with you, Honey, so why cry like a child? Your Paree is going nowhere.”

I wiped my eyes on her forearm. She was caressing my back and rubbing her cheeks gently on my disheveled hairs.

In a soft melodious tone, Paree purred ---“I LOVE YOU HONEY. I can’t live without anymore.”

______________________________



I rubbed my face gently on the soft skin between her creamy soft peaks. Her warm skin felt arousing on my cheeks. I planted a soft wet kiss on her chest.

She pulled my face more close to her heart.

My face grazed inside the flimsy fabric over her ample left butter cone.

A staunch fire got ignited inside my heart.

My left hand came down over her plump bottoms caressing those beautiful soft mounds all over that fabric.

The right one was not idle either; it was tracing the total length of her serpentine spine.

Her left hand was combing my hairs with her thin finger scratching my scalp with her nails and rubbed her cheeks over my head like a frenzied lunatic.

She moaned in a husky tone ---“LOVE ME, as if there is no tomorrow.”

Those words from her sweet lips were enough for me to cuddle her and place her roughly over the bed. We submerged ourselves in the ocean of passion, diving deep down the abyss of dark sea.

Most of the next day, Saturday went off in the journey. After we descended from Nako and reached the Khab Bridge to cross the twin rivers, Paree asked me whether she can get down and pick a pebble from the mountain as a memento of our trip. I smiled at her and complied with her request. All the way from Nako till Powari, most of the time Paree sat silently in my embrace, looking outside the window having some tit bit conversation about our trip. The climate was little foggy after we crossed Powari. The sky was bit overcast with grey clouds. Sun was totally hidden behind those grey clouds. The ambience inside the car was also like outside. I felt that the hills were also not willing to let us part our ways, so it was having a gloom face all over. Paree had closed her eyes and gone to sleep in my arms after Powari. I looked at her calm face; she was sleeping like a baby in my arms; peacefully as if no one can separate her from me.

We reached Jeori; it was already three thirty in the evening. Fog was coming downhill from all over. The visibility came down to mere fifty to sixty meters. I asked Balwinder to stop the car so that we can spend the night at Jeori. It would be dangerous to travel in mountains in fog.

Paree woke up as our car stopped; she looked at me with her sleepy face ---“Have we reached Shimla?”

I told her that due to fog, we won’t be able to make it to Shimla; we will be staying at Jeori.

I got down from the car to ask the people whether I can find any good hotel to stay for the night or not. They informed that if we can take a serpentine climb of about seventeen kilometers uphill till Sarhan then we will find hotels around the BhimaKali temple complex. I looked to Balwinder and asked him whether he will be comfortable to drive in this condition till Sarhan or not. Balwinder nodded affirmatively.

Our car climbed a steep ascend to Sarhan. The lane was very narrow, surrounded by trees and grasses and bushes. We managed to get a room in a hotel beside the temple complex.

We finished our dinner early, as we were bit tired. Paree engaged herself arranging our bags while I was helping her. She cautiously was putting every little thing in both our bags. Keeping that in mind that nothing of her items should go inside mine and nothing of hers should be in my rucksack. No one in our family members was aware of the fact that we have spent the vacation together.

Paree asked ---“How much time will it take from here till Kalka?”

I calculated the distance in my mind and answered ---“Probably six hours or so.”

---“So we can start from here after lunch and reach Kalka before nightfall.”

---“Yes.”

She smiled at me---“How are you going to bid me goodbye in-front of Rani and Kalyani? On that day you had beard and moustache all over your face, now you don’t have. Everyone will recognize you.”

Oh! God, I have not thought of that till now. I scratched my scalp giving her a blank gaze.

She laughed at me ---“I have an idea. I know that they will be reaching Kalka, by six or seven in the evening and our train is probably at night eleven thirty or so. So they will be resting at the restroom in the station.”

I looked at her trying to understand her plan.

---“You will park the car away from the station, because they have seen the car also and leave me at the gate of the station. I will go inside and tell them that Arjun….”

I exclaimed by hearing the name Arjun, none of us are acquainted with a person named Arjun in our lifetime.

______________________________



She laughed heartily on seeing my opened mouth and continued explaining ---“Arjun has dropped me at the station and has gone to New Delhi as he had to catch the flight. After sometime I will come out along with Kalyani and Rani to have something to buy. You will be there sitting in any tea stall sipping coffee.”

I hugged her tightly from behind and exclaimed ---“What a brilliant idea. Do you read spy novels or some books like that?”

She pointed to her head ---“Honey, I have got a brain under this skull and that is why I have chosen you.”

My fingers rubbed over her night dress around her soft fleshy belly.

She patted on my hand and continued ---“Stop caressing my belly and listen to the rest. You have come for some interview in Kalka and ….”

I rubbed my nose over her nape and whispered ---“Oh! My ignorant baby love, there is no IT industry in Kalka. It will be better to say that I had come for interview in Chandigarh on Friday and had a trip to Shimla then. I was returning from Shimla and I took a break at Kalka and we met all of a sudden.”

Her hands came up back of my head and she rubbed her soft rosy cheeks over mine ---“See, you have also started thinking like me. All these cow dung in your head will vanish gradually as you stay in my induction. This is like Physics baby. The water on the top of the beaker gets warm ….”

I cut short her sentence midway ---“Please don’t start Physics here.”

---“Ok no physics, but no cuddling now. Let me arrange our bags properly.”

I hugged her more tightly; planting a series of butterfly kisses on her nape. My fist cupped her supple belly, soft flesh all over, tracing the walls of her deep navel.

Paree let a soft moan out of her parted lips ---“Let me go, honey, I have work to do.”

In a husky tone “You are a gem, a brilliant lady” I rubbed my nose on the back of her head smelling her long tresses. Her hairs felt like silk thread all over my face. “I salute you for your brilliant idea, honey.”

---“Yes, you should bow down in-front of me; see I am two years older than you.”

I jokingly asked her with a mischievous smile---“Really you want me to touch your feet, honey.”

Suddenly she remembered that what I had done with her toe in Nako. She nodded her head ---“No no, you rascal. Leave me now.”

Her nodding and squirming, felt awesome all over as I pressed my whole body over the total length of her luscious figure from back.

She pleaded ---“Please…. Baby let me go. See I have to arrange the bags also.”

Half heartedly I had to let loose my embrace so that she can pack our bags.

We were very tired so we hit the bed after properly packing our belongings and fell asleep as soon as we hit the pillow. Sweet dreams floated in-front of my closed eyes as she snuggled on my chest and rested her head on my left shoulder.

I woke up on hearing a soft sobbing sound. The room was dimly lit in the light of the night lamp. I looked around to find who is sobbing in this dead cold night. I looked at my watch kept beside my pillow and found that it was about morning three thirty or so.

I looked to my left to find Paree. To my utter amazement I found her back heaving and soft sobbing sounds emanating. She was lying with her back turned towards me and she was shaking like a fallen autumn leaf swaying in a breeze.

I pulled my upper body and rested on my left elbow and touched her round shoulder and looked to her sobbing face. Beads of pearls rolling down the corner of her lotus shaped eyes soaking the pillow.

I brought my lips to her ears; she felt my warm breath all over her face.

---“Why are you sobbing, baby?”

Both her fists clutched near her mouth, she bit her finger with her teeth to control her sobbing. Paree was not looking at me. In a choked voice she spoke ---“Do we really have to part today?”

I caressed on her arms from her elbow till her palms gently and tried to pacify her ---“Why are you crying like a baby? See you will be with us from April, after Basanti Puja. Only two months left.”

She looked at me with her inundated eyes, her thin red lips shaking ---“Two months, means sixty days, means more than a thousands of hours. How come I will live without you?”

On hearing her calculation, I laughed ---“Oh! Baby you are terrible” with a joking voice “You were calculating the hours all the time you were sobbing.”

______________________________



She took my right palm in her fist and pressed on her heaving bosom.

---“You can’t feel my pain.”

I rubbed the tip of my nose over the curve of her nose and cheek to wipe the wet trail of pearl beads.

I pushed my left arm under her neck and rubbed her roundness on her left shoulder.

Paree placed the flat of her palm of her both paws on my chest.

Her full bosom; partially covered by her night dress, was touching my chest lightly. I sensed the staunch pointed peaks on my coarse skin of my bare chest.

Her eyes were closed as I was rubbing my face on her cheeks lightly. Deeply enjoying my cuddle and hugs.

I whispered in her ears ---“Thank you Paree, for stepping in my life.”

A warm soft moan came out from her lips as my face nudged under her chin over her slender neck.

Her arms caressing all over my back; pulling my upper body over her.

Her soft plump bosoms crashing under my weight. Those twin creamy mass felt like molten hot lava.

Paree moaned out ---“You have shown me the way for love.”

The blanket over our body has curled up at the end of the bed. Her legs were shaking as I placed my palm over her slender left thigh. Her left leg was bend upwards and the end of her flimsy fabric slided down near her juncture of her thigh and lower abdomen, exposing the soft smooth warm skin under my hot touch.

“Mmmmmmm………” a soft moan came out of her red lips.

Finger nails of her right hand jabbed my staunch shoulder muscle of my back.

Her left hand moved over my spine, tracing all the length of it down from the end till middle of my back.

I placed my nails on her inner thighs on that soft smooth skin, tracing coarsely from her knee till the juncture of her limb just near her hidden treasure.

She screamed out in utter pleasure and shivered intensely ---“Uffffff……… I will die now, honey.”

Her nails probably scratched my skin, as I felt a sharp sensation on my shoulder muscle.

My face came down over her upper chest, tracing her smooth skin just below her neck; tracing the contours of her upper rib bones with my wet tongue.

My chin pushed down the flimsy clothing down her full bosom, exposing those perfectly shaped hills of butter.

The soft creamy skin felt like heavenly sensation under my throat.

My face traced down more downwards between her peaks of butter.

She had my trousers pushed down to with her left hand and grabbed a fist full of my hard bottom.

In a deep husky voice she hissed out at me ---“ABHIIIIIII…….. LOVE ME HONEY…… I WANT TO DIE TODAY IN YOUR ARMS.”

I looked up in her fiery eyes, glazing and pouring hot lava of passion. Moaned out in a warm breath ---“THIS NOT TIME TO DIE HONEY…. I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH, PAREE.”

The ambience of the room lit up with passionate fire on the last dawn of our memorable vacation.

We squandered off to the green pastures of love and passion. Sacrificed ourselves in our arms and drank the potion of ecstasy.

Chapter 6: Restricted Tears

-------------------------------

We reached Kalka probably by six in the evening. It was sundown and darkness approaching on the hills.

After our morning love, we got up late from the bed. We finished our lunch on Sarhan and started our journey. Paree was bit cheerful in the morning. She was again chirping like a koel during the whole journey, praising about the place and vacation. We took the same detour to reach Kalka from Fagu.

Paree asked me ---“When is your flight tomorrow?”

I answered ---“I have an early morning flight, but I don’t think I will be able to catch that, so I will board the noon flight which is probably at thirty minutes past ten.”

---“Will you visit my house in these two months?”

---“I don’t know actually honey. I will try to have a visit or two.”

---“Will you be coming to fetch me during Basanti Puja?”

---“I fear that dear, I have my final exams in month of May, so I don’t think my parents will allow especially your ChotoMa won’t allow me.”

---“Give my regards to ChotoMa…”

I exclaimed ---“Honey, you were not with me in this vacation, remember.”

She smiled ---“Oh! God, I totally forgot that I was with my friends” She said pinching my cheeks “And you were alone in those cold mountains.”

Paree squeezed my nose tip and smiled naughtily and whispered---“So, Abhi, who made your cold nights warmer while you’re having your lonely vacation?”

I smiled at her and said to her ---“You have to think of a story for Kalyani and Rani and also for your Mom and family.”

She waved her hand ---“Oh! Don’t worry at all. I am a good story teller; everyone will believe what I say.”

“Yeah that I know very well. No one knows better than me, what is inside this head” as I gently pushed her head.

---“Oh! I have long forgotten to tell you a secret.”

I exclaimed on hearing that ---“What, do you have someone else in your mind?” I asked her jokingly.

---“No, not that. You remember Mriganko, Subroto Da’s friend who stayed with him during the wedding night.”

I nodded “yes”.

“Long ago, he was head over heels for me.” She laughed out. “Terrible person”

---“I knew this before.”

She exclaimed on hearing that ---“How come you know this?”

I told her about the night of that life changing discussion during Subroto’s marriage and our drink party at his room. We made fun of all that and our journey was a fun filled one.

As we neared Kalka station, I asked Balwinder to park the car some distance away from the station, near the highway, so that no one could notice. I also informed him that we will be starting from Kalka once the train leaves the station. He nodded to my words.

The first thing I did as we got down near the station was to call my mom and informed her that I would reach home by next noon. Then I called Suprotim Da, to inform and apologize that I won’t be able to meet him as I would be in a hurry to catch my flight.

I took Paree‘s bag as we walked till the gate of the station. All along Paree did not ease her clutch on my left arm, she was not willing to part; she was not willing to let me go. As I handed her the bag she looked at me with tearful eyes, trying to control her rupture building inside her heart.

I gently touched her forehead with my index finger and pushed her head ---“Go now and come back quickly, I will be waiting at that stall” as I pointed to a tea stall.

Our fingers brushed on each other’s for a final touch.

Those thirty minutes seemed to me as three decades as I waited anxiously sipping tea outside and glancing at the gate of the station.

“What all happening inside the waiting room? Will she be able to come out with her friends or not?” all these thoughts were circling in my brain.

After quiet some time I saw three ladies coming out of the gate and one of them was Paree. I glanced at her but she just ignored to look at me as she was talking something with her friends. My heart was beating very fast in some unknown anticipation.

“Was she going to meet me or I have to depart from here without saying goodbye to her”.

After quiet sometime as they were all engrossed in their chatting, I saw with my corner of my eyes that Paree was pointing towards me and saying something to her friends. They walked slowly towards me.

I thanked God, so at last she was acting according to her plan.

All the three ladies came near me. I looked at Paree in a veiled amazement as if I was meeting her after a long long time.

Paree winked at me with a naughty smile and exclaimed ---“Abhimanyu, what a big surprise! What are you doing here?”

Kalyani and Rani were looking at me with inquisitive faces as if they had seen some ghost out of nowhere.

I clenched my teeth on hearing Paree calling by my full name. I had to answer as my queen of heart has ordered me to do.

---“I had an interview at Chandigarh on Friday and after that I thought to take a trip to Shimla. On the way back I was having tea.”

______________________________



I thought that I had to ask her questions also so I asked her ---“How come you are here, Suchismita?” I spelled her full name clenching my teeth. “Tit for tat Honey” I winked at her.

Kalyani sensed that she has to tell something as Paree was about to open her mouth.

“Actually we were on a vacation to Shimla-Kullu-Manali along with our husbands and Suchismita” she answered to my question. So at last every one present here is telling lie and we all are aware of that.

I felt my belly crumbling as if it would burst anytime. Paree glanced at Kalyani with a thankful look in her eyes and then looked at me; she bit her lower lips with her upper jaw to control herself from bursting out in laughter.

Rani asked me ---“You are Ulupi Madam’s son, right? You were present during Subroto Da’s wedding.”

“Yes” I nodded.

“But how come you know my mom?” deep fear sensing inside me, what if they tell my mom about the interview of Chandigarh.

“We all three are friends from childhood days, we went to same college where your mom teaches” Kalyani answered.

Paree sensed that a fear was brewing inside me so she asked Kalyani to stop---“You want to interrogate him like Hitler or what.” She looked at me and asked “Will you stay till our train departs?”

Rani asked Paree ---“He has to go probably; he could be late to where he was going. Our train will be leaving at dead night after six or seven hours. What he will do for that long time?”

Paree stood beside me and for the first time I heard her commanding voice ---“See, I have met him after a long time. He is son of my ChotoMa, so he will do whatever I tell him to do and he will wait till our train leaves Kalka.”

By hearing which Rani felt bit annoyed and answered ---“I was just saying.” After a little pause “If he has no problem, then why should I have?”

I sensed that Paree was bit staunch on her voice, so to calm down them I asked Kalyani about their husbands.

Kalyani said to me that they both have gone somewhere leaving the two ladies waiting in the waiting room. I laughed at them saying that is that the nature of all males?

Paree looked at me and gestured “Don’t keep me waiting for you else I will kill you.” Fortunately no one noticed her gestures except me.

All of a sudden Dipankar and Ramanuj came. Before they could feel my presence among them, Dipankar exclaimed by looking at Paree “Hi, Suchismita. How was your first honeymoon with Arjun?”

Kalyani pushed her husband gesturing that I was present. Paree blushed red with shame.

Dipankar looked at me and bit his tongue “Shit! Sorry” and he hide his face behind Kalyani.

Ramanuj looked at me and shook my hand. All of us laughed at Dipankar.

I had to act as if I was meeting them for the first time.

Paree introduced me with all of them.

I asked them whether they want to die in this cold or go and sit in some restaurant and we can continue our conversations and get acquainted with ourselves.

While walking towards the restaurant, Paree looked at me and wanted to clasp my hand. We were walking little behind those two couples. With a heavy heart I requested her not to do so as those ladies could smell something fishy.

She looked down to the black pitch road, crossing her arms across her chest and walked slowly beside me.

I thought “MY BREATHING HEART WAS SO NEAR YET SEEMD SO FAR AWAY”.

In the restaurant, we all sat around d a huge table. Paree was sitting opposite to me and was between Kalyani and Rani. Dipankar was on my left and Ramanuj was on my right. Our conversation went on various topics, mostly about their trip.

After sometime I asked Kalyani ---“Now we are friends. Can I ask you something?”

She nodded “yes”.

I looked at Paree with smiling eyes and asked ---“Who is this Arjun?”

“Errr…..” Both Kalyani and Rani looked at Paree. Paree looked into my mischievous eyes veiling her laughter nodded her head in accordance.

Kalyani; in a bit queer look at me ---“Actually, Suchismita hasn’t divulged to us anything about her new found love. I don’t know why she has concealed this from us, as far as I know from her childhood days, we shared everything amongst ourselves except this one.”

______________________________


Rani smiled at Paree---“Yes, we should ask Paree.”

Paree in a quiet and calm voice answered in a very short sentence ---“My trip was a very good one. Don’t ask me anymore about this. Please.”. She looked at me hiding her pain of forthcoming separation.

Our conversation went on. Dipankar looked at his watch, it was already ten o’clock. Their train would be leaving around midnight.

After dinner was finished, we walked out of the restaurant and strolled together towards the station. Paree asked Kalyani and Rani to let her alone for some time with me. They all looked at her with some suspicious glance, and went into the station, leaving us behind.

Slowly we were walking towards the highway. Cars running past. She was still walking silently beside me, very near to me with her arms folded across her chest, clasping the jacket and my shawl over her, tightly. Our forearms touching each other as we trotted silently.

I thought this is not a good way to bid her good bye so I said to her “Why so quiet? Say something.”

She stopped and looked at me in tearful eyes. Drops of glistening pearls, just about to fall, yet controlled. Her lips quivered and in a shaky voice ---“Just go away.”

I placed my left arm over her shoulder and pulled her near me. She could not control herself more and hid her face on my chest over the jacket. I gently caressed her back to pacify her.

---“I can’t bear the sight; you are standing alone in that deserted platform waving at me. So you have to leave now. I can manage myself because I have my friends with me. But you will be all alone. I just can’t bear that pain.”

I planted a small kiss on her head, in a deep breath, inhaling all her fragrance. “Don’t worry about me. I will be alright.”

She sobbed in my arms ---“Please leave. I will breakdown more, if I see you standing there waving at me.”

---“Ok.”

Paree wiped her face with the back of her left palm and looked at me with her painful deluged eyes.

We walked back towards the station only to be astonished to find Kalyani and Rani looking for Paree. They observed that Paree was bit gloom. Her eyelashes were soaked. Kalyani looked at me with an inquisitive face.

I nodded my head saying “It is nothing. She just got emotional all about her ChotoMa.”

I was sure that Kalyani was unable to digest that, she nodded her head in suspicion and to my utter fear she spoke “I knew something was not true.” She pointed her index finger to me and said “The moment I saw you today evening, I suspected something after seeing your glasses. The rim and make of your glasses was same as Arjun or better say there is no person named Arjun in her life. Am I right?”

My ears became hot and red as if someone has poured molten lava on my head. My heart beat could be heard from a mile. Paree looked at her with her big fearful eyes and clutched my hand tightly. Droplets of glistening pearls rolled down the corner of her eyes.

Kalyani looked at both of us “So I am correct. Abhimanyu was with you.”

Paree’s big black eyes filled with tears again as we looked at each other, the utter horror has happened for what we were not at all prepared.

Kalyani smiled gently at Paree, in the light of the station, I saw her eyes also got moistened a bit. She placed her palm on Paree’s cheek and caressed gently ---“Don’t worry; this secret will remain secret among us.”

We went inside the waiting room where their husbands were also present.

Rani divulged our secret to them. All two pairs of eyes looked at us in suspicion. The cat was out of the bag, I felt there was nothing to hide more.

Rani told to Paree in a very soothing voice ---“This will be a secret amongst us.” All of them nodded. “Why are you crying now?”

Kalyani was sitting next to Paree; she took her palms in her and said to her ---“You have done nothing wrong. You are a beautiful young girl and he is a handsome intelligent boy. You two don’t share any forbidden relation even. There is no blood relation around you two in thousands of miles. Who is he actually? He is your mom’s - maternal uncle’s - eldest daughter’s - third daughter’s only son. Both of your families came together because Ulupi Di’s college was near to your house, that’s all. Else you both couldn’t even meet in your life time.”

______________________________

Dipankar looked at me and patted on my shoulder ---“Cheer up, brother. Why to worry about the society and the world around us? You are young and so brave to steal our beautiful friend from us and go on a vacation like this. Hat’s off to you.”

Paree gave them a faint smile and thanked all of them.

Rani looked at me with mischievous eyes ---“So, you two had a good time. You both are rascals but intelligent rascals.” She winked at me ---“Have you hurt my beautiful friend during the trip, somehow?”

Paree blushed, crimson red and looked at me. Sweet smile has returned. I felt relieved to see her again in cheerful mood.

Kalyani in a naughty voice to Paree as she slapped her on her cheek ---“Hmmmm…… you two love birds must have enjoyed a lot during your trip. I can easily see the halo of joy beaming all over your face. Tell me?”

We all got free with ourselves as the dark cloud was blown over. I could now embrace Paree, so I put my left arm around her shoulder and she lovingly rested her head on my shoulder. We all got engrossed in our conversation about all our journey and trip.

Time passed very fast.

The overhead mike announced the arrival of the train. I looked at my watch, so the parting time has arrived.

Dipankar and Ramanuj boarded the train and took their seats and keep their luggage.

Paree was still clutching my hand in both of hers. Kalyani and Rani looked at us.

I said to her “Paree, you need to go now.”

In a bit shaky voice she yelled out at me ---“I told you beforehand, to go back. I told you. I told you that I won’t be able to bear the sight that you are standing alone in this cold night. I told you.”

Kalyani put her arms around Paree to console her running tears.

I wiped her tears with my thumbs and took her face between my palms and kissed her forehead ignoring all those eyes looking at us.

---“Don’t be insane. I am ok, I am fine.”

Kalyani told me that she will take care of her. I smiled at her faintly, hoping that Paree doesn’t faint again as she did on reception night.

---“I will try to find some way to meet you in this two months, ok I assure you.”

Kalyani looked at me and exclaimed ---“Two months! So long time?”

I nodded “yes but true”

Paree walked with them a little bit to the door of the compartment. All of a sudden she turned towards me and came running and hugged me tightly in her arms. She planted a wet sweet kiss on my cheek. I hugged her tightly in my arms so as not to leave her again. Both her friends has already boarded the compartment and called for Paree. She ran towards them.

The departure whistle blew, echoing in the cold night all around the empty platform. The train chugged out slowly.

Paree stood with a gloom smiling face, controlling her glistening eyes, at the door of the compartment. She brought her index finger to her lips and kissed it and swayed it to me, her signature flying kiss.

I scratched my head and looked at her.

I raised my index finger gesturing as “I” and then I raised my index finger and thumb, perpendicular to my index finger gesturing “L” and then raised my index and middle finger to gesture as “V” or “U”.

The train disappeared into the cold dark night, leaving me alone on that platform.

PART 3 : High and low tides on the bank of Ganges.

Chapter 1: Angelic Dream
-----------------------------


Our house was quiet large one. The ground floor was rented to a Marwari family. On the first floor there were three bedrooms, one drawing room and one dining area. One room was for my parents, one room was a guest room and one was getting decorated for my mom’s new found daughter (rather best called as future daughter-in-law) Paree. Although we had so many rooms on the first floor yet I was shifted to the room on the roof i.e. second floor. I was quiet unable to digest that, but my dad’s order was next to “Ten Commandments”.

I got quiet engaged in my studies, my final exams were nearing. The thoughts of our memorable vacation, used to flood my wet dreams. Paree’s beautiful eyes used to float in-front of my closed eyes. Her sweet dimpled cheeks, as she smiled at me. Her feathery touch on my face and chest and head. Her last flying kiss; which she threw from the gate of the compartment before leaving Kalka, still was fresh as tulip in my heart. Often I used to lick my lips, thinking that her very drop of blood running inside my veins. Most of the night I could not concentrate on my studies and slept late, only thinking of Paree’s beautiful lips and face. I could not devour much of her beautiful luscious figure with my eyes as she was very shy. Coming from a village background, she only wore saree and salwar. Even during our romantic embrace she would cover herself and me under blanket.

The day was Thursday in the second week of February. The winter temperature has bit diminished. The climate was quiet suitable for being romantic. Before leaving for her college, my mom told me that they have not invited Subroto and Maithili to our house after their marriage. So they have been invited and will be coming along with her in the evening. I had to restrain myself from asking her that whether Paree would also be accompanying them or not. But I asked. She said she was not sure about Paree. I felt bit disheartened to know that Paree would not be accompanying.

I arrived late in the house as I had coaching classes of Physics paper.

I ranged the calling bell so that someone could open the door for me. My mom looked from balcony as to see who has come.

As the door opened in-front of me, I stood there dumbfounded on seeing Paree’s beautiful face. I stood there lifeless as a stone statue, my left foot on the step of the door and other outside.

Her face was beaming with a bright smile. I stood there for few seconds to look at her from head to toe, devouring my damsel, the Eve of my heart. Her big black eyes were shining like diamond. Her pearl studded teeth gleamed between her thin soft red lips. I looked at her face, there was a beautiful red and yellow dot on her forehead between her whipped eyebrows making her face more divine. A tuff of her beautiful tress swayed over her left cheek, as if the full moon playing hide and seek behind the curtain of cloud. Her long jade black tresses running down from back of her head around her right shoulder to the front, covering over her right bosom and coming down till the middle of her belly, probably there should be her deep navel. She was wearing a quarter sleeved peacock blue salwar kurta which was hugging her upper torso. Her smooth creamy soft skin, of her bare arms was radiating a halo of molten gold. The kurta came down till the end of her bust and then unfurled in a long and huge umbrella shaped wrapper, coming down till her ankles. The same gold earring studded with emerald was adorning her small cream earlobes. Her dupatta was neatly folded and rested on her left shoulder. There was a divine yet glittering look all over her. Those two sweet dimpled cheeks was blushing pink as I was intently devouring her beauty.

Paree gently touched my forehead with her index finger and pushed me and whispered ---“Don’t look at me like that. I am all jelly inside my heart.” She ushered me inside.

I wanted to touch her hairs but she pushed me and whispered ---“What are you doing? This is house and every one in present.”

As she climbed the stairs, her luscious tender frame swayed like a banana branch in autumn breeze. From behind I could not control myself the seductive view of her back oscillating beautifully in-front of my gaze. At her back the kurta was deep cut tied with strings. Her creamy back skin and her curvaceous spine were playing hide and seek with my gaze. She glanced over her shoulder at me and gave me a naughty smile as if she could feel the hot lava of my eyes all over her wide back. Each step I took towards her, she climbed further with a naughty smile on her lips beckoning me “Catch me if you can.” The air I breathed each time was filled with the faint odour of Paree’s fragrance and jasmine. She looked at me and winked and hid her smile by placing the back of her left palm over her sweet luscious lips.

______________________________

In the drawing room; mom, dad, Maithili and Subroto was enjoying tea and light conversations. I buried my strong excitement deep inside one corner of my heart and smiled at them.

Subroto exclaimed on seeing me ---“Oh! Boss, how are you?”

I gently bowed my head, looking straight into Maithili’s eyes and answered ---“Boss I am ok. So tell me how you are all doing?”

I sat beside Subroto on the long sofa; Maithili was seated on the other end of the sofa. Paree and mom was seated in-front of us on the two small sofas.

As a newly wedded bride, Maithili was also looking dazzling, wrapped in a turmeric coloured silk saree with black thread embroidery all over that. The border of the saree was dark brown with golden embroidery all over. For the first time, after all those chaos during the marriage, I looked at her to enjoy the beauty of Maithili. Her locks were not as long as Paree and tied in a tight bun resting over her nape. There was a medium sized red vermillion dot at the centre of her forehead just between her eyebrows. She was just one shade darker than Paree, yet her skin color was very inviting. Her eyes were little brownish with long eyelashes. Her nose was just like the beak of parrot. She had very sweet lips, smeared with inviting pink shade lipstick. Just above her upper lip on the left part, there was a small black spot. Probably a beauty spot, which made her whole oval shaped face and smile very beautiful. A heavy gold necklace adorned her slender neck. She was wearing a brown coloured blouse. From the side as she sat away from me, I observed that the saree knot was just two finger width, below her navel, exposing her supple smooth flat belly and a deep well at the centre of the plateau. Her palms rested on her lap, thin creamy soft fingers adorned with few gold rings.

I was quiet for few seconds as I was intently looking at her beauty with the corner of my eyes.

Subroto patted on my back and asked whether my college was going all right or not. I nodded in accordance to answer that everything was alright and I am fine.

Mom told me that they have come along with her, and all the time eagerly waiting for me to arrive.

Paree was beaming with all childish joy as if she has found her lost toys. She was hugging mom so tightly that at times mom had to ask Paree to loosen her grip on her right arm. In-front of mom she was acting like a small girl and mom was also pampering her every time with soft pat on her cheeks or on her head.

Our conversation turned to my mom’s boastful explanation as how she has decorated Paree’s room with all new curtains and bedcovers and she has also coloured the walls with sky blue colour, which is favourite of Paree.

Mom’s boastful description was too much for me, so I told them I need to change and I went to my room on the second floor to change myself. My head was spinning just by the thought that she; my mom; has to boast of everything she does and make others feel that she was doing a favour for them. I was sure Paree will gradually understand the temperament of my mom someday. I sat in my room silently for quiet sometime as I felt some warm air blowing inside my head. My mom has a very peculiar nature to boast to her relatives about her deeds. She has spent so much of money in my studies. She has a big house in a place like Kolkata. A boastful nature, to showoff to others, her prized possessions. I was bit engrossed in those thoughts as I heard a knock on the door. I thought Paree might have come so I looked around with a naughty smile on my face only to find Subroto standing at the door.

He said to me ---“Hey boss, are you ok.”

Suppressing all those evil thoughts I smiled back at him---“Boss, I am ok, I am fine.”

He came near me and asked ---“Like to have a party tonight?” He gestured me with thumbs-up sign. He was asking for a drink.

---“Sure, but do you have it with you or I have to go and fetch?”

---“Dude, I don’t have. If you can arrange some. Please.”

I answered ---“Sure boss, anything for you. Come along with me.”

Subroto said to me in a distressed voice ---“How, if Ulupi di comes to know then you will be fired.”

I pacified him ---“Ah! Don’t worry; we will drink in my room. My mom won’t come here during night. And if we gossip for whole night even she won’t suspect anything. And in the morning while going to college I will pack the bottles in my bag and dispose them on the drain outside. You don’t worry about anything.”

I told mom that Subroto and I were going out and will come before the dinner. Both mom and Paree and Maithili were seated in Paree’s room as we went out. Maithili and Paree looked at us suspiciously.

______________________________


Maithili approached towards Subroto and asked him ---“Where are you two going now? Don’t be late for dinner.”

I answered to her queries to save Subroto ---“We will come back just before dinner. Don’t worry and I am not going to steal your husband for the night.” I smiled jokingly at her.

Suddenly Paree came running and hugged Maithili from behind and looked at us. In a foxy voice ---“I know where you’re going.”

I sensed that before she opens her mouth I had to keep her shut, so in an annoyed voice ---“You shut-up and go inside.”

Saying so, we walked down the stairs. Both Maithili and Subroto looked at each other trying to understand as why suddenly I scolded Paree.

I knew that either at Dumdum road or at Khanna I can get liquor at this point of time. So first it would be better to try DumDum road as it was near to our house.

On the way, Subroto asked me ---“Boss! Arunima was asking about you several times. What have you done to her?”

I scratched my scalp trying to remember as who is Arunima? I murmured “Arunima, Arunima …” in my head.

He looked at me curiously ---“Oh! My god, you have forgotten about Arunima. You don’t remember Maithili’s cousin sister, from Kolkata? You met with her during my marriage.”

--- “Oh! That college going girl; your sister-in-law. Yes, Yes, I remember.”

---“This is not done Abhi. You have forgotten my beautiful sexy sister-in-law? How come you can forget such a sensuous girl?”

---“Oh! Come on, leave that and tell me what happened in your honeymoon? How have you enjoyed with Churni?”

---“Guru, Goa is an awesome place. All sun soaked sea beaches and especially those bikini clad foreigners. God, what a hot sexy figures.”

We both laughed at each other.

---“So actually you were eyeing those foreigners and not your wife?”

---“Dude! Beauty is to see and not to touch.”

---“Do you mean that Churni is not beautiful?”

Subroto nodding his head ---“No no no not that …”

Subroto went along with his story about his honeymoon and place, I said to him that I want to hear his story from both of them so better we can keep this story for the night.

We brought rum from Dumdum road and were returning. Again Subroto started talking about Arunima.

---“She told me that she gave you her telephone number, but you have not called her.”

---“Boss! I forgot her totally, so how come I can call her and moreover why she was asking about me?”

He winked at me ---“Hey! Don’t pretend anything as if you are Ganges water. You are a rascal and you might have done something with her.”

I thought of joking with him now so I patted his shoulder and said ---“Boss! You link me up with her once and then see what happens.” I winked at him.

He laughed out loudly ---“Oh, she is dying to meet you, but I haven’t given your telephone number. I felt I should ask you first before giving her.”

I thought, what the hell is going to happen.

I tried to visualize, Arunima wearing a baby pink saree during the reception night. Teenaged yet sensuous frame. I could not figure out more as she turned hazy in my brain.

On reaching our house, mom told that Paree was going to sleep in her room. Maithili and Subroto will be spending their night in the guest room.

After dinner, I and Subroto went upstairs to my room to have our drinks. The dinner was sumptuous, mutton and biriyani.

We sat on the bed, both of us opposite to each other at the corner of our bed. I spread out a newspaper over the bed and kept the bottles, glasses and mixtures. Subroto made our first peg and we cheered for his honeymoon.

After one sip Subroto again started babbling about his honeymoon.

---“What a place.”

______________________________



“You have seen only beaches and beauties? Nothing with Churni?” I poked him.

He finished the rest of the glass in one gulp to make his veins tipsy.

“Churni, Churni, Churni …..” he murmured for quiet sometime “My loving damsel wife.”

---“Ok, baba, I know she is your wife.”

He nodded his head vigorously and said ---“You must go to Goa for your honey moon.”

I knew that Paree don’t like sea beaches, she likes hills more than anything after her first trip to hills and that also with me, she has fallen in love with hills. I gulped the remaining part of the drink.

---“I don’t like sea beaches; I like hills and mountains and adventurous places.”

We were babbling tit bits and nothing.

I looked outside and then at the clock, it was about eleven in the night. During February in Kolkata, winter is very sweet. But today I was feeling bit hot, may be all due to the effect of the rum or better say the sight of Maithili and my very very beautiful sensuous damsel.

Subroto and I were in total control, not filling as tipsy as the night before reception, when we both fell on the ground of the tent house and we slept there all night.

Time was not passing actually, as after sometime we felt that we have nothing to say more. Just then we heard knock on the door. I knew that mom and dad will go to bed early, as they have to go to their work place tomorrow.

I was about to get up to look for who could be, just then Maithili pushed the door ajar and entered the room, Paree was behind her.

Maithili screamed at us on seeing the bottle and glasses ---“Oh! My god, I thought that you two were gossiping, but I didn’t know for one second that you will be boozing here.”

Both the beautiful ladies had changed their attire in their night gowns. Maithili was wearing a purple coloured two piece silk night gown. Probably the inner one should be sleeveless. Belt tied at her waist, displayed her sensuous contours and curves of her frame openly yet veiled. She has let her hairs loose which were tied in a bun during all the afternoon. Her open arms were shining gracefully in the yellow light of the reading bulb. I eventually switched off all the lights in my room to create a proper ambience for boozing. She was looking arrogantly towards Subroto with her hands on her waist. Paree stood behind her, she was wearing her sexy white coloured sleeveless vest fabric night gown with noodle strap on her shoulders. Her arms were around Maithili’s narrow waist hugging her closely and her chin rested over Maithili’s right shoulder. My damsel’s contours were very much exposed before my tipsy eyes. I felt a lump in my throat as I saw a mischievous smile on her lips. She licked her upper lips with her velvety tongue which made me mad and hot. The yellow rays probably slipped over her small round shoulder over her creamy soft skin. The sight of two Aphrodite standing at the door and looking at both of us, made the room ambience more aphrodisiac. Subroto looked at Maithili with hungry eyes as if he will pounce upon her any time. Paree’s arms were folded around Maithili’s tummy just under her full bust. On doing so, Maithili’s luscious bosoms were pushed up sending an inviting signal to both swine present in that room. Paree’s face was close to Maithili’s face. I tried to compare the facial beauty of both the damsels but my dizzy eyes could not make out, which one of them was amorous than other.

I was unable to control my staunchness inside me and got down on my knees in-front of those heavenly angels. With outstretched arms and looking directly into Paree’s inviting eyes I sang out.

“Aisee Na Muhjyee Tum Dekho … (Don’t look at me like this)

Shinyee Say Laga Loonga … (Embrace you on my bosom)

Tumko Mein Chura Lungaa Tumsee …. (Will steal you from yourself)

Dil Mein Chupaa Loonga ….(And hide inside my heart)

OH O Oh O ….”

Maithili was taken aback; she thought the song was for her. Both the damsels blushed, crimson red. Maithili covered her face with her palms and Paree bit her lower lips. She was looking into my tipsy red eyes, as she knew very well that those lines were not for Maithili but for her.

Subroto pounced, but not on Maithili. He held me by my ears and pulled up.

His voice was already tipsy --- “You swine, she is my wife.”

Inside my head I was murmuring “You idiot, who said that the lines were for your wife; you son-of-a-bitch. Those lines were for my breathing and breathtaking Eve.”

______________________________

We all laughed at each other and sat on the bed. Maithili rested her head on Subroto’s shoulder and hugged his torso with her arms around his body and curled up near him. Paree knew very well that she has to be bit discreet in-front of her brother so she sat beside me but at some distance and reclined on the headboard with her legs outstretched and crossed with left one over her right one. She rested her hands on her lap. As Maithili curled up near Subroto’s chest, the lower end of her night dress bundled up near her knees exposing a pair of beautiful feet and curved calves. The yellow light glistened over her smooth skin of her calves. Subroto was caressing Maithili’s broad back over her silky fabric. Probably the touch of silk on Maithili’s bare skin of was turning her mood amorous. I and Paree were unable to do anything, except stealing hot glance into each other’s eyes.

Maithili said to me ---“Abhimanyu, you have made my husband a drinker.”

I told to her --- “He was already a drinker even before we met, dear.”

Maithili looked at Subroto’s face in bit arrogance.

Subroto nodded his head --- “No honey, I don’t drink regularly. Only on special occasion I drink.”

She asked --- “What is the special occasion today?”

---“Ulupi Di invited us at her home. I met Abhimanyu. We both had a beautiful honeymoon. Occasions are many. I will lose count, Honey.”

I said --- “Pinee walee ko pinee ka bahan chahiye (Drinker always tries to find excuse to booze)”

Paree and Maithili laughed out at us.

Maithili told to Subroto --- “Stop boozing and come with me to sleep.”

I looked at Maithili; her face was turned towards Subroto.

I joked at her --- “Going to sleep or keep him awake whole night.” Maithili looked at me and her face turned crimson again.

Paree screamed out --- “Stop, teasing her or I will kill you.”

I looked at Paree and bowed my head towards her as if saying “I am ready to die in your arms my love.”

Subroto pleaded to Maithili --- “Please, please, please one more peg honey. Then we will go to bed. I promise.”

Paree looked at me and said bit arrogantly --- “You two will be drinking, and what we two will do?”

Subroto said --- “Ok, you can drink the coke.”

Paree looked to the half litre bottle of coke; the liquid was at the bottom of the bottle.

She swayed the bottle in-front of our tipsy eyes and asked ---“There is nothing here. We are not going to drink water.”

Subroto looked at me --- “Boss! What to do? Can you find some in this dead night, anywhere?”

I sang out again ---

“Kabhi Nehin Paad Saakta Maikhanayee Pe Taalaa …. (Drinking Bar can’t be locked anytime)

Kabhi Nehin Paad Saakta Maikhanayee Pe Taalaa …. (Drinking Bar can’t be locked anytime)

Ek Do Chaar Nehin , Sara Seher Haii Pine Wala … (Not one, Not two, Not four, whole city is full of guzzler)”

Subroto yelled out --- “Wah, Wah Wah …. Then why wait, bring a litre of coke.”

I knew in this dead winter night there will be only one shop at the bus stand which will be open. It was already thirty minutes past twelve. I somehow ran down to fetch the coke.

I climbed the stairs, panting hard with the bottle of coke. As I placed my foot on the open roof I saw Paree standing out in the open roof, gazing at the sky with her back towards me.

The crescent of the silvery moon was playing hide and seek behind a tuft of cloud.

Paree had her arms folded across her chest. In the darkness and lowlight, I found her like an inviting angel descended from the shining moon on my roof. The vest fabric encased her curvaceous figure so well that I could feel every curve with my eyes. Her plump soft bottoms were masked by the fabric so tightly that I could see the shade of the fissure between her soft globules bottoms. Her forearms were pressed just below her sumptuous bosom making those beautiful globes protrude up. The flimsy fabric was unable to hide the voluptuousness of her ample bosom. Top end of her dress started from the middle part of her ample bosom exposing her whole cleavage and top portion of her luscious bust to my view. The low moonlight was shining on her soft creamy skin of her exposed bosom. Her long tresses were flowing gently in the winter breeze. Her face was pointing upwards stretching her gander like neck. Her face was quiet and calm as Deep Ocean sleeping at night.

______________________________

[usaiha2]

Her big black eyes, glistening in the mild moonshine. The noodle straps exposed her beautiful round shoulders. Smooth creamy skin of her bare arms glowing as molten gold.


An intense heat boiled inside my head; asking me to pounce upon her and kiss her and bite her neck and her exposed shoulder. Whispering to my brain to hug her tightly in my arms and maul her tender figure all over. Crush her with my grip till she cries out in pleasure and the calmness of this dead night is shattered.

My heart asked me to stop doing all those nasty things with her. I tiptoed near her back and stood there silently for quiet sometime, devouring her eternal divine beauty to the brim of my heart. Paree was so engrossed and lost in beholding the beauty of the moon that she could not feel my presence behind her.

After sometime, I thought “Enough is enough, Abhi you are acting like a lame person. You EVE is within your reach and you are doing nothing.” Slowly I leaned forward to touch her bare shoulders with my lips. Gently I put my arms around her narrow waist from back and glued my whole body on her soft curvaceous back. With my left arm, I encased her waist and placed the flat of my palm over her soft round lower tummy, just above her “V” shaped juncture heavenly perched between her fleshy limbs, and grazed my right hand roughly between her full luscious bosoms over her deep gorge till her neck. I held her by her neck and pushed her head back.

Paree woke up from her trance by my sudden presence, feeling my hot lips and arms around her all over, tightly encased in my hug.

She whispered in a husky voice ---“When have you arrived?” A warm gasped out of her partly opened lips.

---“Long ago Honey, I was beholding your divine beauty for long time but I could not contain myself.”

I traced my tongue all over her nape and took her earlobes in my mouth and started sucking and licking them gently.

A soft moan came out ---“Mmmmmmm….. What are doing? Subroto Da and Maithili are still in your room.” The mere thought that we could be caught made me more lewd. I observed through my naughty caressing that Paree had nothing underneath.

I squeezed her lower belly with my left hand so that her sumptuous bottoms protrude back. She wriggled like a wounded snake in my deep hot arms. Unintentionally her heavy hind orbs rubbed on my lower abdomen sending a high voltage of lightning down my spine. My staunchness got perched on the deep strait between her soft hind orbs. I could feel her lava melting her down as skin burnt in fire of passion. Her hands came up and curved back to hold the back of my head to make my access on her earlobes and cheeks easier for me. Her actions pushed her bosom protruding outwards bursting out of her flimsy fabric. I cupped her beefy lower tummy in my grip and mauled the warm flesh over her thin veil. She could not control herself from my warm touch.

In a musky tone I hissed out in her ears ---“You were waiting for me Honey!”

She moaned in deep voice --- “Jelly is boiling all over my body …… Let me go, before anyone notices us.”

I whispered ---“Why were you standing outside?”

---“I felt alone as soon as you left, so I left those two love birds alone in the dim room and came out.”

“And why were you looking to the moon.” My right hand came down over her supple top bosom, caressing and fondling the bare skin, feeling her warm softness on my fingertips.

She whispered ---“I was enjoying your first kiss on my forehead.”

I grazed my strong fingers of my left hand down to her abyssal juncture between her limbs. She held my left hand tightly in her grip and stopped those lewd fingers from diving deeper into her abyss and gave a red signal on the midway. She could feel my lewd hot torso all over her warm soft back.

She hissed out like a venomous cobra --- “NOOOOOO…… Please don’t do ….” She wriggled passionately in my tight embrace. Her hot sensuous frame was melting down in my deep embrace.

She nodded her head, pleaded ---“Leave me please…. Let me go …. Maithili can come out.”

I whispered --- “Only one kiss before I let you go.”

---“Not now, but I promise that your dreams will be answered.”

My right fingers tried to graze down her supple bosom.

She hissed out again ---“Please leave me before someone comes ….. You are terrible. Even after knowing that Subroto Da and Maithili are present in your room. You are fondling me like this.”

---“I will let you go, but you have to promise that I will get a good night kiss.”

---“Ok….”

______________________________

I had to unclasp my embrace around her molten figure half heartedly. We both were sweating in the soft winter February night. The actions were pretty hot I suppose.

The door of my room was ajar so I felt that we should knock before we enter. We were not sure, in what posture we will find those two love birds, Subroto and Maithili, on my bed.

Paree knocked on the door and coughed ---“Can we come in?”

Subroto --- “Yes come in. You arrived so soon?”

On hearing his shaky voice, I was definite that the romantic heat was flowing inside the room also as well as outside the room. I took about thirty minutes to fetch the coke and knock the door.

Maithili was lying on the bed sideways bent on her left side, resting her head on Subroto’s lap. The upper cloak of her night dress was folded up somewhere on the floor. Her inner cloak was sleeveless as I assumed beforehand. Same noodle strap inner cloak as Paree was wearing. As she was lying on her side, a wave formed over her curvaceous figure. The lower end of her dress curled up till her knees. Maithili’s hairs were disheveled and her face was glowing red. The flash of her eyes expressed that we have interrupted their play. Subroto right arm was resting over curve of Maithili’s narrow waist and other one behind his head. The silk material encased Maithili’s luscious figure so well that I could even feel her goose bumps all over her body peeping out of her dress. Her flimsy fabric divulged that she was also as stark bare as my EVE under that silk fabric.

Subroto asked me --- “Have you brought the coke?”

“Yes dude! So what’s the plan now?” I looked at him as if asking him “Should we continue with our booze or he wants to retire.”

Maithili whispered out in a low inaudible voice --- “I want to drink coke.”

Paree looked at me as if saying to me “See, how hot Maithili has become.”

We again sat on bed on our respective places. Paree was pouring coke in two glasses.

I asked Subroto --- “Boss! Do you want to drink anymore?”

---“Yeah badly…”

I assumed that Maithili will surely die of pleasure tonight.

I asked him --- “You are ok?”

“Yes I am perfectly ok. I want a peg only before retiring.” His eyes were red and hazy.

---“You are sure?”

He smiled at me and abused “You swine. Don’t ask questions just make a drink.”

---“Ok, as the king orders.”

Subroto poured down half glass of the fluid down his throat. I sipped slowly on my glass.

Subroto ---“Last conversation, was stopped at …….?”

Me ---“I don’t remember ….”

Subroto --- “You should go to Goa for your honeymoon.”

Paree looked at me as she turned red, but in the dim light and tipsy eyesight Subroto was unable to notice Paree’s blushes.

I thought “Oh! No not again. This guy will set fire in-front of us now.”

But I could not control myself from teasing Maithili so I asked --- “Why Goa and why not any other place?”

Subroto said after taking a sip of the glass --- “Goa, full of sandy beaches and beautiful sea and sun and sand. There are many beautiful churches and coconut groves by the side of the sea-shore. And …..”

I asked ---“And what Boss?”

Maithili looked naughtily towards Subroto. Subroto continued in a teasing voice ---“Bro, and the bikini clad women. Oh … what a scene.” He laughed out.

Paree already had gone red, sipping her coke and looking at me.

Maithili slapped on Subroto’s leg ---“You rascal, you were eyeing all these foreigners?”

---“Boss, frankly speaking, Indians ladies doesn’t have the guts to wear such revealing bikinis and all.”

Paree was blushing red and her finger tips gently brushed over mine, I looked at her, her eyes said to me “Stop him else I will go away.” I nodded my head “Keep quiet.”

Maithili sat up, adjusting her dress and slapped Subroto on his cheek, this time hard enough and giggled out naughtily ---“Don’t say that, that the Indian ladies have no guts to wear those clothes. You know that very well.”

______________________________

Paree sensed that Maithili’s was hiding something, so she asked her ---“Hello, Maithili, you have to tell me what happened.” And she winked at me.

Maithili nodded her head sideways vigorously --- “No no … I can’t tell…. That’s too shameful ….”

Subroto whispered in her ears with his right arm behind her back around her narrow waist pulling her wife towards him --- “Shall I tell them what happened?”

I apprehended that something nasty happened between them during honeymoon, and that happens with all couples. I asked Maithili jokingly ---“Hey … hey …. See there are no more boundaries between us, so why conceal something. If it is something to do with your romantic acts on bed then I will not ask. I need not know all those actions, frankly speaking. But if it something else …. Please, please tell us … we all also want to enjoy.”

Maithili virtually hid her face on Subroto’s shoulder rubbing her nose and face on his neck saying “No no no ….”

Subroto brought his glass to Maithili’s lips and ---“One sip Honey… everything will come out”, winking at me.

Paree looked at me naughtily smiling; her pearl studded teeth glistened between the pair of soft red lips.

Maithili looked deeply into Subroto’s eyes and sang out all of a sudden ---

“Aree Do Ghont Mujhyee Bhi Pila De Sharbai …

Dekh Phir Ho Ta Hai Kya ….

Aree Do Ghont Mujhyee Bhi Pila De Sharbai …

Dekh Phir Ho Ta Hai Kya ….”

and winked at Paree.

We all were taken aback by her sudden action. Paree smiled naughtily at her, dancing her eyebrows.

She pointed at Subroto and said --- “This rascal, mischievous, cunning jackal brought a red skimpy bikini for me and made me to wear that on the beach one day.” Saying so, Maithili blushed crimson red and hid her face again on Subroto’s shoulder. His hands came over her wide back gently caressing her wide back all over the silk. Subroto laughed out loudly on seeing her wife blushing and looked at me as if saying “You must do this to your wife also, dude.”

Paree noticed Subroto’s gesture and she looked at me. I knew Paree would prefer to die rather than wearing such revealing clothes in front of any other pair of lewd eyes. I nodded my head in assurance to her that I will not ask her anything like that.

Within few seconds I pictured in my head, Maithili’s curvaceous figure clad or better say revealed in a skimpy red bikini; her bare slender limbs, those shapely creamy bottoms wobbling in front of my lewd eyes. The small “V” shaped fabric, barely covering the juncture of her limbs and cupping the entrance of pleasure, outlining the folds of her small den. The red string behind, tied to the thin waist band hid between her beautiful hind globes; revealing two creamy mass in full view. Flat stomach with a deep navel at the centre of the plateau rose gradually till the base of her full bust. Her full supple bosom; made up of soft flesh supported by the red strings; juggling in front of my eyes. These lewd thoughts burnt my abdomen and send a thrilling chill all over my spine.

Our glasses were about to be finish, the brown liquid was at the bottom of the glass, so I asked Subroto whether he wants another drink or not. Both Paree and Maithili screamed at us scolding us to drink no more. I also sensed that the conversation was taking a lewd turn. I told them we will finish that glass and retire.

Subroto asked me --- “Boss, tomorrow you are going with us for movie right?”

I said --- “No boss, I have my electronics practical. I can’t miss that and if I do my partner will kill me.”

I nodded at Paree gesturing her “I am sorry honey.” She could understand me.

Maithili spoke to me---“Ok, but you are going with us on Saturday to Dhakuria to Amol Uncle’s house.”

I asked --- “Who this Amol uncle?”

---“Arunima’s father! I don’t know anything; you are coming along with us.”

I had to assure something to Maithili as Paree was looking at me with some dissatisfaction ---“We will look into that on Saturday, ok.”

The last sip was finished. All of them now have to retire to their room in first floor leaving me alone.

Subroto and Maithili along with Paree went out of my door. I thought that Paree was not going to keep her promise, so I touched Paree’s shoulder from behind, pleading her that she was breaking her promise. Paree looked at me over her shoulder. Her eyes were glistening naughtily. As both love birds were few steps ahead of Paree, she brought her right index finger on her lips kissed it gently and swayed at me, her signature flying kiss.

Halfheartedly I looked into her eyes and said “You promised Honey.”

______________________________

She nodded her head “Be contend with this Honey”.

I lied down on the bed pulled the blanket over me and swooned into slumber as soon my head touched the soft pillow.

I was not sure, for how long I closed my eyes.

I felt a soft feathery touch on my forehead. I opened my sleepy eyes to look around as to find what has touched my forehead. To my utter amazement I found that I was reclining on the trunk of huge Krishnachura (Royal Poinciana) tree. The green leaves were covered with the glowing red flowers. One such flower fell on my forehead. I was sitting on a small hillock. All around the small hillock there were grass lands. Green grasses of various shades extending till the horizon. The hillock extended till the shore of the infinite sea in front of me. The colour of the water was Prussian blue and there were no waves on the water. The sky was deep blue with not a single speck of cloud. I was in my favourite dress, cream coloured silk Punjabi and cream coloured Dhuti with wide border. My diary was folded on my chest. My arms folded on the diary. The red flowers of the huge tree was scattered all around the trunk on the ground around me. After some time I saw a bright white light cut through the curtain of the calm ocean and the light was fast approaching towards me. As the light came near the shore at the base of the hillock I saw a silvery crescent moon being pulled by six white horses or unicorns. There were no wheels on the chariot; the crescent moon was floating on the air. A mermaid was sitting on the crescent, her long jade black hairs flowing behind her. Two long bunches of locks came over her shoulder over her supple bosom covering her beautiful bust at front. Below her deep navel from where the slender limbs should grow, the mermaid was covered with silver and golden scales of fish. The fins were of turquoise blue colour shining brightly. I looked at the mermaid’s face as the moon and the horses came near the tree. It was my Damsel of my heart, My EVE, Paree smiling divinely at me and with her outstretched arms beckoning me towards her. Her big black eyes, shining as two Kohinoor diamonds. Small dimple dug over her sweet rosy cheeks. A small bunch of lock danced over her right cheek. A pair of long gold earring, studded with emerald and ruby adorned her earlobes.

I smiled at her beholding her deep black eyes and lost myself in her deep embrace.

Chapter 2: Debi, My divine Goddess

------------------------------------------

My college was at Phoolbagan. Everyone in their college days are called by their nick names, so I also had a nick name, my friends used to call me “Bihari”. The reason behind that nick name was that most of my childhood and youth I have spent in hostel in Bihar, completing my secondary and senior secondary education.

I could not attend the first period of optics as I was late for that. After the lunch break, the electronics practical was to be held so I entered the practical room and took out my book and was reading silently. Not reading actually, although my eyes were fixed on the pages but my thoughts was lingering around my heartthrob, my beautiful mermaid, my Paree. I was thinking of the passionate embrace at the rooftop last night. My damsel was wriggling in my arms like a mermaid taken out of water. Her silky smooth skin felt creamy all over my arms. Her earlobes felt as soft ice-cream melting on my velvety tongue. In my dream also I lost my self in Paree’s embrace. Everything floated in front of my eyes, Paree’s dimpled cheeks, her sweet lips, smiling at me, the twinkle of her big black eyes. A bunch of small lock, dancing over her right cheek. Frequently she was removing her lock and pushing it over her ear.

All of a sudden I heard a soft voice and a soft nudge on my left arm --- “What’s her name, Bihari?”

Involuntarily my damsel’s name came out from my lips --- “Paree.”

I woke up from the trance; the beautiful sight floating in front of my eyes vanished and found my best friend Debanjana, my practical partner, the studious and the best girl in my class, smiling at me,.

She asked --- “So, at last Bihari has got his damsel of his dreams. Hmm…… you rascal.” She yelled at me “So how long this affair with Paree was going on? And how come you have not told me anything.”

Debanjana Bannerjee, I called her Debi, smiled at me with a naughty look at my blank dumbfounded face. Paree’s name came on my lips involuntarily, I was never going to disclose this to anyone, but I got caught.

I nodded my head --- “No, no, no, there is no one named Paree. Who’s Paree?”

A hard slap landed on the back of head --- “Don’t lie to me Abhi, your eyes are telling everything. Even your glasses can’t hide the twinkle in your eyes.”

I yelled at her --- “No, dear, there is no one named Paree in my life.”

______________________________


---“Dhaat …. This can’t happen that Abhi has lost himself during the practical class.”

I smiled at her; I have been caught red handed, so I nodded my head --- “Ok! Baba, I will tell you everything after the class.”

She screamed at me --- “NO, I want to hear everything now.” She started pulling me by my shirt “Come let’s bunk the class.”

---“But, I came here only for this practical class and only for you, so as not to make you angry.”

She waved her hand --- “Oh! If you have come for me, then let’s go somewhere. I want to hear your entire story. And if don’t go with me then you will surely make me angry.”

I asked her --- “But what about the practical?”

“Don’t worry about that, I have bread-board and multimeter and all other electronics apparatus at my home. We can practice this any anytime. Now come with me” She pulled me by my hand and took me out of the class. While going out, I saw my classmates looking at us. Especially Anusuya and Sukumar looked at us as we walked out.

Sarmishta came running towards Debi and asked --- “Hey, where are you two going? Will you not attend the practical?”

Debi looked at me and said to her --- “No, we are going out. I will meet you at home and tell you everything.”

Debi asked me --- “Where do you want to go now?”

I told her that Coffee House will be better option. Her eyes twinkled in joy.

We started walking.

Debanjana was second child, only daughter of her parents; she lived near DumDum Airport. Her dad also worked in the same office; Airports Authority along with my father. They all lived in a huge house, joint family and Sarmishta was her cousin sister, daughter of Debi’s younger uncle. She was bit of short height; probably six to seven inches shorter than me. She had spectacles on her eyes. Small round face was always beaming with smile. She was very cheerful lass and at the same time she was intelligent. She always used to wear long flowing salwar suits of light colour. Seldom would she wear t-shirt or tops along with long flowing skirts. She always carries a dupatta or shawl or stroll around her neck. My friend was very chirpy. I observed that the people who are talkative, doesn’t hide much in their hearts. Their hearts are open as a book, pure as water from Gangotri. And Sarmishta, her sister was just opposite in nature; calm, timid and bit shy.

We were walking towards Sealdah.

She screamed at me in the middle of the road --- “Tell me about Paree or I am going to scream here that this boy is abusing me.”

---“Oh! God, don’t do that. Wait I will telling you everything.”

I started my story, how I met Paree during the wedding. The relation between me and Paree. My first kiss on her forehead in the secluded bus. The deluged eyes of Paree on that very night on the lonely dark road. I told her about my Mom’s relation with Paree. My mom was going to bring her to our house for her further studies.

Debi exclaimed and yelled at me --- “Oh! My God, so from last two, three months you are lost in this lady’s thought and you have concealed everything from me? You cunning jackal; bloody swine.” She started slapping me on my arm in middle of the road.

We took left turn from RazaBazar and were walking towards Sealdah station.

She asked me --- “Want to have Phuchka (Gol Gappa in Bengali terms)?”

---“Sure ….”

--- “Ok, let us have that and rest of the story I will hear at Coffee House, you swine.”

There was a naughty smile beaming all over her face, as we ate those fast-foods on the road side.

Debi asked me --- “So what’s the problem now?”

---“Nothing as such. She has come to my house.”

She again yelled at me --- “You rascal, you have left her alone at the house and come for Physics practical?” then she smiled at me “You have done good job, else how could I know what was there in your heart?” she winked at me.

“Is she beautiful? How does she look? Is she intelligent? When can I meet her?” she flooded me with a series of questions.

______________________________


I slapped her on her head --- “Wait, let her arrive at my house after Basanti Puja, then I will get her acquainted with you.”

She pointed her index finger and asked me “Promise”.

---“Promise, baba. Where can I go?”

We both giggled at each other. We were walking over the flyover towards College Street.

“So, Bihari, has at last fallen in love with someone.” She giggled at me “At one time I thought that you can’t fall in love. So rude and crude.”

“Crude person” I laughed to myself and said in a bit gloom voice “The world around me made me so”.

--- “Hey come on don’t start all those again. I feel like crying whenever I see tears in your eyes. I am happy that you have Paree, I really want to thank her, and she has brought back smile on your gloom face again.”

I asked her “Hey! Shall we call Arindam to Coffee House also?”

---“Ah! Leave that rascal; he must have gone home already.” Saying so, we walked silently towards our destination, through the lanes and by lanes of M.G Road, crowded with all small and big book shops.

Arindam, Debi’s heartthrob, was doing his Master’s from Kolkata University in Chemistry. They met last year in October, during our college fest and they got engaged. The guy had a heart of gold. The day he proposed Debi, jokingly I said to him that if I see tears, anytime in Debi’s eyes then I would kill him and drown him in the Ganga River.

While walking I got lost in my old thoughts, of Debi. I came to this college about two and half years ago. I was two years older than all other boys and girls in my class, after my collegeing was completed in hostel in Deoghar now situated in Jharkhand state. The reason behind that I was two years older was that I flanked once in class eleven and then I flanked again for preparing for engineering IITs and other engineering colleges. My parents were very hard upon me; they used to say to me always that since they have spent so much of money on my studies they want me to be an engineer. But from my childhood days I wanted to be a painter. After my class ten exams I wanted to pursue painting and arts as my subject so that I could get admission in Shantiniketan. But my parents were adamant about my studies. Several days has past that I could not sleep due to all the heated arguments between me and my parents, forcing me to take science and do engineering. All they said that since I was good in my studies and good in science subjects especially in physics and maths so I had to be and engineer. I got ranks in IIT KGP and also in ISM Dhanbad, but I was adamant that I will not study engineering. We got in a huge fight over that issue and later on I was admitted to the college for pursuing my bachelors in Physics.

Two and half years back when I joined that college, I was very new to this city of Kolkata and as well to the environment. It took me some time to adjust myself in this city life. Although being a Bengali, my vocabulary was mixed with Hindi and English words. For most of my colleagues I was like an alien factor. Then I saw Anusuya Chatterjee, beautiful lass in my class and a good danseuse also. Her dance practices kept her figure sharp and angelic. I was smitten by her beauty on the very first step I took into the class. Gradually our friendship grew stronger. I poured my heart to her, divulging all my dark past. Seeing a beautiful girl along my side, others classmates also stretched their hands for friendship. I proposed her on Christmas Eve of that very year, but I was turned down. Probably due to my pronunciation and linguistics problems she thought that I was not from Bengal and was actually not a Bengali guy. I was left alone again but then with only friends or better say classmates. I used to seat in one corner of the third last bench and used to look at her with heavy heart. Since Sarmishta and Debanjana were studious and intelligent so they got many friends, but the rumor of Anusuya’s rejection and my past failures spread like wildfire in the class. Anusuya told everybody about my past failures and made me look cheap and failed person in my life, in-front of others. I was helpless out then with no one around me. I tried to persuade her that I was Bengali and born in Kolkata only. Much later after much of coaxing she was convinced but I could not win her back. She made several stories to avoid me further. At last I thought it would be better to leave the past and get along with life. And to my utter amazement or to make me burn in jealousy, Anusuya started dating fellow colleague of mine, Sukumar. Yes I felt jealous at first, but I kept all those raging fires deep inside a corner of my heart. I hid myself into my shell again with pain and rejection. I became calm and quiet all over, although my past and my relationship with my parents have made me rude. The friendship between me and Sukumar got bit strained, but mostly I tried to avoid the tension and talk with everyone with smiling face.

______________________________


Time went by. Things were getting normalized between me and Sukumar and others. But with Anusuya, the relation was not same as before. Her gaze used to remind me that I was a failure.

During our second year in college, probably in September we were starting our new chapter in second year of college days. The lunch time was about to get finished, students were returning to their classes. Sarmishta and Debanjana already took their seats in the first bench and I was about four benches behind them. I was reading a Bengali Novel. Suddenly all the chit-chats in the class came to a pin-drop silence on hearing a whimper of pain. I looked up to find that Debanjana was rubbing Sarmishta’s back. Sarmishta nose was bleeding profusely. Everyone was dumbfounded on seeing the blood. She was crying in pain with her head leaning over the desk. Everyone was giving suggestion as how to stopping the bleeding but doing nothing. I realized that Bengali Guts are very poor, these guys are timid and panicked on seeing the blood. Some sort of rage flooded my brain. I leaped over the benches and took off my shirt (I had a full-sleeve vest underneath) and pressed that on her nose. I shouted to all the guys standing there and doing nothing, to call an ambulance. Sarmishta was crying in pain. I put my arms behind her back and other below her knees and pulled her on my lap and asked Debanjana to hold her head up so that the blood doesn’t come out. Debanjana was also crying. As I picked up Sarmishta she fainted in my arms. I screamed at her not to close her eyes. Debanjana was uncontrollable by ten. The ambulance arrived; I carried her all the way to the ambulance. Every person present in the college was asking about her as what happened. I asked the rest of the person to call her parents as I and Debanjana boarded the ambulance and rushed her to Medical College Hospital emergency.

I came to know at the hospital that Sarmishta had a small lump of flesh inside her left nostril and that has ruptured and that was the cause of all the bleeding. She was to be operated immediately. Debanjana and I were anxiously waiting outside the gate. The tears from Debanjana’s were flowing like flood. In my mind I was cursing my colleagues as what type of person they were, mere donkey without courage of taking the first step. Debanjana was seated on a chair and I was kneeling in front of her with her hand in mine trying to console her that everything would be alright. I buried the worst thoughts in some corner deep in my heart. The classmates arrived at the hospital and along with her parents. Everyone asked us about the incident. Debanjana only answered to the queries of her parents, she was not talking to any other person. I could see a raging fire in her tearful eyes as when she looked at her colleagues, as if saying to them “You all are coward and bullshit persons.” The guys came near me asking me about what was the status. I explained them Sarmishta’s problem. With corner of my eye I saw that Anusuya was standing at one corner of the waiting lounge and looking at me, intently. I paid no attention to her and kept talking to others.

We all were anxiously waiting outside. After sometime, the doctors announced to her parents that Sarmishta was out of danger; there was a feeble, very negligent chance of development of that lump to a tumor in future. But due to the rupture and timely bringing Sarmishta to the hospital has saved her from facing a bigger problem. Her parents looked at me with their thankful glistening eyes. Debanjana came running towards me and embraced me in her arms and started to cry, tears not of pain but of thankful and joy. Her sister was going to live; she will again be able to see the sunrise with her next day. Her sudden action pushed me bit back. I was not at all ready for all those emotions. No one has hugged me like that in last fourteen years and not a full grown teenaged lady. All my life I have heard that I am a failed person, and all of a sudden my actions hurled me to the top of the life. I gently tried to console Debanjana and told her that as everything was fine so I need to go. Her parents asked me to accompany with them to their house. I politely denied them saying I would visit their house some other day after Sarmishta gets well and returns home. Her father brought a t-shirt for me as I was till then in my sandow vest only.

We all friends came out of the hospital and there was a hush among all of them. I walked alone towards the bus-stand but then I was walking tall. After a long time I felt that I am a person who also had a living heart that throbs inside my chest and which was not as coward as the people around me. For the first time I felt that the world around me to be very black and nauseous. I saw my friends calling me to have some food in some eateries at College Street. I nodded my head that I don’t have time to eat. Suddenly I found that Anusuya running at me gesturing me to stop as if she wants to say something. I looked at her with a bit forgiving eyes and boarded my bus. She looked at me. The same look was on her face, dejected and lost. I could see the pain but I smiled in my mind that whatever God does for us are always best for us.

[usaiha2]

For few days, both Debanjana and Sarmishta were absent from the class. 


Then one day after probably two periods after lunch time, I saw Debanjana at the door of the classroom. All the pairs of eyes looked at her trying to ask about Sarmishta, but they did not have the courage to ask her eyes were burning as amber while she looked at others. She walked directly towards me without talking to any others.

She nudged my arm and pulled me from the bench --- “Aye Bihari, come with me.”

I asked her --- “What happened?”

“Come with me, you have been called at my house.” She pulled me out of the class.

During our journey towards her home Debanjana informed me that Sarmishta has been discharged from the hospital last evening and everyone in her house was asking for me. So she has come to the college only for me.

I told her that she could have called me.

Debanjana --- “I did not have your telephone number.”

I looked at her and said --- “You never asked for that.”

She looked deep into my eyes --- “For the first time in my life I have failed, since my childhood.”

---“Failed for what?”

---“Failed to judge you; failed to judge a friend.”

---“Ok, that happens with all persons.”

She suddenly asked me --- “Hey, Bihari, your father’s name is Arjun Talukdar?”

---“Yes, but how come you know.”

---“I knew your father used to work in Airport Authority, and my father also. When my father heard your surname he asked me your father’s name, but I didn’t knew at that time. He told me everything.”

---“Hmm…”

As days passed by, our friendship grew stronger. We used to bunk classes and go for watching movies or simply walking around College Street or Esplanade or Park Street or sitting at Nandan. Sarmishta was calm and timid so most of the time it was only me and Debanjana roaming on the streets of Kolkata. I was new to that place so she acted as my travel agent. We ate chello kebabs at Peter Cat in Park Street, or just munching egg roll at the corner of the Park Street, or just sipping cold coffee and chicken pakoda at Coffee House at College Street or sipping tea and banana cake in The Flury’s. Enjoyed movies in The Globe or The New Empire or The Light house, I was diehard fan of English movies. The college mates envied our friendship and rumors were around that Debanjana has fallen in love with Abhimanyu. We both were aware of those petty rumors and we enjoyed those very much. Since my dad was colleague of Mr. Bannerjee, Debi’s dad, so she was easily accepted as my female friend in my house.

She and Sarmishta used to guard me from Anusuya and did not even let her talk to me as they were aware of the break up, between Anusuya and Sukumar.

One evening we all three, Debi, Sharmi (I called Sarmishta by her nick name) and I were sitting in The Flury’s in Park Street, sipping tea and munching banana cake.

Sharmi spoke in her usual timid calm yet bit jokingly --- “Do you know that yesterday, Anusuya asked about Abhimanyu?”

We both looked astonishingly at her asking her the reason.

---“She was asking about the relation between you two.”

We both laughed at her and asked her as what has she said.

---“What? Why are you looking at me like that? I have told her the truth that you two are only friends.”

Debi slapped Sharmi, annoyingly said to her --- “You idiot, you should have told her that we are having a torrid affair. Now that she knows, she will definitely try to woo Abhi again.”

She looked at me --- “Don’t you dare to go near that bitch, else I will kill you.”

We all laughed out at each other.

Just before Durga Puja, Debi and I were walking and gossiping by the bank of River Ganges, at Outram Ghat; walking towards the ice cream parlour at the end of the road, The Scoop. We bought two ice creams and were enjoying that along with sunset behind the Second Hoogly Bridge. Debi looked out to the river and the setting sun through the huge glass windows. I was looking at her. For the first time I felt that the bond was really strong between us. That day she wore a light green long skirt and a white loose top. A yellow ochre coloured stroll was around her neck. Her small sweet face was shining in the orange rays of the setting sun.

______________________________



Her eyes were glistening with some joy, behind her glasses. I could not restrain myself from touching her shoulder. I took a deep breath and stretched my arm to touch her shoulder.

She looked at me with her spoon in her mouth and asked ---“Why are you looking at me like that?”

I nodded my head and scratched my scalp --- “Nothing.”

She stopped licking her ice cream and looked at my face --- “You can’t hide anything from me. Even as your voice is calm but your eyes talks too much”

I asked her jokingly --- “Okay, tell me what are my eyes are saying.”

She punched on my cheek gently --- “I know what you are thinking. Sometimes I feel that sensation in my brain.” Her eyes glistened and soft smile beamed on her lips.

I took her hands in mine, she spoke in a bit quivering voice --- “I don’t want to spoil our sweet relationship, Abhimanyu, I don’t want to lose such a good friend.”

I pressed her hand and said --- “Debi, I will remain as your friend.”

All those old reminiscent were spinning inside my head as we walked towards the Coffeehouse.

Debi, punched on my back --- “Hey why are you so quiet. So again you are engrossed in thoughts of Paree or what.”

I scratched my head ---“No dear, I was thinking of you, our friendship and that promise which you asked from me in the ice cream parlour, The Scoop.”

She slapped me and giggled --- “Ah! Emotions are really flooding like Tala Tank. Remember that you have to tell me about Paree, by the way, what’s her full name?”

---“Suchismita Mondal.”

She nodded her head ---“Hmmm…. Beautiful name, so her smile also must be beautiful.”

I scratched my head ---“Aree, her dimpled cheeks captivated me, and her little lock of hair that always dance on her right cheek.”

We took our favourite seats by the window on the second floor of Coffee House and ordered for our favourite dish, cold coffee and chicken pakoda.

I told her about our vacation at the hills. She was amazed to hear that how come I gathered the courage to enjoy a secluded vacation with Paree. I told her everything about our vacation except those deep embraces and warm moments I shared with Paree.

While sipping the coffee she said to me --- “So, what’s the problem?”

I told her that there is no problem between me and Paree.

---“I know that there is no problem between you and Paree, but there is a deep anxiety brewing inside you.”

I looked at her “How come you know”

“I know you better than yourself, rascal.” She smiled at me. “You are thinking about your parents, whether they will accept your relationship or not, right? She is two years older than you and also she is your mom’s relative. Whatever I have heard about your parents from your mouth, you will have to face a stiff resistance.”

I asked her helplessly --- “I have seen dark days in my life, Debi. It has made me strong and arrogant. I can fight with the world to get her.”

--- “Why do you have to fight? I will try to convince your parents that two year of age difference between the boy and girl is acceptable and also there is no blood relation between you and Paree. Don’t worry about the future. Enjoy the present and more over enjoy the coffee, you dog.”

I looked at her smiling face, sipping cold coffee. Debi, my divine Goddess, my best friend. I don’t want to lose her like every other happiness I have lost in my past.

Chapter 3: Madonna (Mother and Child)

---------------------------------------------

I returned late from Coffee House. By the time I arrived at home, everyone was present in the drawing room waiting for me. They were gossiping and enjoying tea in the mild cold weather of February. Dad was in his room doing some office work. Motherly love was flowing between mom and Paree. Paree was lying on the divan of the drawing room with her head rested on my mom’s lap and she was combing Paree’s long hair with her fingers and was talking to others.

I went in and sat on the small couch at the leg end of the divan. Mom asked me, why I was late. I told her that we had the practical class and after that all friends went somewhere for some fast food so I got late.

She told me that next day, Subroto and Maithili would be going to Maithili’s uncle’s house at Dhakuria and they are asking me to accompany with them. I looked at Paree; her eyes were telling me “Please don’t go”. I asked mom that what their plan was for Saturday. Mom told me that she will be taking out Paree for shopping at ShaymBazar, HathiBagan and then they will go to BowBazar to buy some ornaments for her.

Maithili looked at me --- “You didn’t accompany us today for movie also.”

What to say. Paree was not aware of our friendship, my closeness with Debi.

Mom --- “You don’t like shopping with us; you can easily go with them to Dhakuria if you like.”

I thought what’s going in mom’s brain. Why she is so keen to send me to Dhakuria? Probably she has seen Arunima during the wedding and might have fancied promoting her as her future daughter in law. Is that so, then I will be in a dire situation.

Subroto asked me ---“What are you thinking? I don’t want to hear anything; tomorrow you are going with us to Dhakuria.”

I had to say something, a strong excuse to avert Arunima. Paree clutched her both hands and was looking at me, waiting for my answer.

---“I told you that on Saturday, I will decide whether to go to Dhakuria or not. Let the dawn arrive I will let you know.”

I had to find some way to spend time with my Paree, but I could not steal time due to lots of people around us. Paree was bit satisfied with my diplomatic answer.

I went upstairs to my room to change my dresses and study. Study was just an excuse to aloof myself from them. While I was going out, I observed Mom tucked away Paree and Maithili to kitchen. Subroto looked at me and asked whether he can come to my room or not. I said to him that he was always welcome.

In my room we both sat on the bed facing each other.

Subroto asked me --- “Hello, tell me frankly that whether you are interested in Arunima or not?”

I scratched my head, trying to make a good story so as to avoid and make them clear about my status. I was aware that I could not divulge the reality to them. Subroto will be offended, the cat will leap out of the bag if he comes to know the truth and I will be thrashed bitterly. It was also possible that I would get myself thrown out from the house.

I gathered some courage and spoke---“See, frankly speaking, I am interested in someone else.”

He exclaimed at me --- “What dude, who is the lady? But last time you told me and also to Arunima that you don’t have any special girlfriends, how come all these happened so fast?”

---“Boss, no one knows about heart, right? Liking for someone, strikes like a lightning and you fall in love. You might be better to understand this as your ones is also love marriage.”

---“But boss, sudden liking is nothing but infatuation or crush for someone. Have you asked your girlfriend whether she likes you or not? By the way who is she?”

I was thinking as what to tell, should I pull Debi in these murky waters or just avoid the question somehow. But the way Subroto was looking at me, it would be hard to avoid his interrogation.

“Someone from my college; although I haven’t proposed her yet.” I lied to him without blinking my eye.

He seems to be interested in the ladylove of mine; his eyes were shining --- “So when are you going to propose her? Have you given some hints about your liking or what?”

--- “Probably on her birthday. Probably she feels same for me.”

In a bit gloom voice Subroto told me --- “Arunima would be bit disheartened to know this. For last two months she was waiting for a call from you. I think you should at least meet her once. As you haven’t proposed your girlfriend yet, I think you should meet her. May be God is planning something else for you.” He smiled at me.

I smiled back at him --- “Ok, this time I promise that I will meet her, but not tomorrow.”

I asked Subroto back --- “By the way, why you and Churni are so eager to patch me up with Arunima? Do I smell something fishy or the whole pulses are black?”

I saw a mischievous cunning grin on his face; he danced his brows --- “You will come to know gradually, dude.”

I could not understand as what is he trying to say or explain, or what is running at the back of his mind. But for me the smile was a cunning one.

Maithili pushed open the door and entered in the room to announce that dinner has been served.

______________________________



Subroto pointed at me and divulged every part of our closed door conversation to Maithili, that I was having an affair with someone from college and that I have not proposed my girlfriend yet. My ears turned red as Maithili’s eyes were intently gazed upon me while all these. There was a mischievous smile on Churni’s lips also, she was biting her little finger of her left hand between her pearl studded teeth which made her smile and face and eyes beaming a halo of sensuality. She stood at the door with resting her whole weight on her left leg and her right elbow bend sat on her narrow waist. The posture in which she was standing in-front of me was too much for me to leap.

I asked her --- “Why are you smiling at me like that?”

“Nothing,” then she turned to Subroto and asked in the same smile “What all have you told him?”

Subroto nodded his head --- “Don’t worry honey. He has promised me that he will meet Arunima. I have told him nothing more, have faith in me dear.”

“Ok then, come downstairs the dinner is ready.” Saying so, she twirled her luscious bottoms like a swimming mermaid and went out. The sight of her luscious figure crawling like a venomous snake jolted an electrifying sensation inside me. My gaze was fixed on her supple soft bottoms dbangd in her silk long night gown. This time I don’t think I could hide my gaze from Subroto as he looked at my face and then looked at her wife’s swaying bottoms as she walked past the door. Before closing the door behind her, she looked at both of us over her shoulder; probably she felt the heat of my burning gaze on her swaying supple hind globes. She looked at Subroto and danced her brows and vanished at the corner of the roof towards the staircase.

I sat there dumbfounded by her actions and also getting caught by her husband. My ears were burning and face turned red and warm. What was happening to me, I thought? Am I eyeing Maithili, in burning lust, in-front of her husband? Did she sway her back purposefully towards me? Why there was a mischievous smile beaming on Churni’s luscious pouting lips? What if Subroto noticed me staring at his wife’s lustful figure and devouring her voluptuous beauty? Probably he has noticed my burning gaze, but why is he keeping quite? What all are happening in their heads? Enough of your fascinations Abhimanyu. Too much of nasty images spinning inside your cunning brain.

On the dining table also, I could not mingle much with Paree so as not to attract unwanted attention on our relationship. The mutton (Kosha Mangso) was cooked by Paree and that was delicious. Mom told us that, Paree would be sleeping along with Mom, and dad will be sleeping in Paree’s room. I told them that I won’t be going with Subroto and Maithili to Dhakuria. I saw a pleasing smile on Paree’s face.

In a joking voice Paree said --- “Yes, ChotoMa need a donkey at least to carry our bags.”

I looked at my mom and yelled --- “Ma, what is this?”

She kept on smiling and was serving the food.

Paree laughed at me --- “See a donkey eating mutton.”

I yelled at her --- “Crow, jackal, raven ….”

All were smiling at our petty quarrel, Ma scolded both of us --- “You stop yelling at her and finish your dinner, and don’t be late for bed.”

I told her that I have practical work to complete and I will be late. I glanced at Paree through the corner of my eye as if saying to her that “I will be awake in the night waiting for you.”

It was really late night, I looked at my watch and it was ticking ten minutes past one. I had to complete my practical lessons and get them signed on Monday. I felt tired and feeling a bit of headache. I crossed my fingers and supported by head by stretching my arms at the back of my head and closed my eyes. I was unable to spend time with my beautiful EVE. I should have gone with them for the movie at least for some time I would have spent time with her. I cursed myself for missing the chance. Same time I felt happy that I would be able to make up the time during next day shopping. But my mom would be with us; anyhow her presence in-front of my eyes will at least make me happy. From the morning, I was not able to talk to her properly due to the crowd. I have not smelt her fragrance, so I took out her handkerchief from the corner of my drawer and placed that small piece of cloth over my face. So near yet so far. Paree was not aware of my close relationship with Debanjana, neither she was aware of my past. I was looking for a good time to open my heart to her. She was an intelligent lady she would understand me, I believe. I should not have hidden my past from her during our vacation. Was I afraid or skeptical by then? May be the fear of losing my EVE was running in my subconscious mind.

______________________________



I heard a faint sound from the door; probably the breeze might have pushed the door. Then I felt a soft touch on my forehead, same as the other night, the beautiful dream of my EVE. But this time as I opened my eyes I found Paree standing behind my chair, bend over my face and gazing deep into my sleepy eyes. Her slender soft arms came around my shoulder and she rested her arms across my chest and entwined her fingers. Again she put a small soft kiss on my forehead.

I stretched my arms behind me and put those around her back, pulling her nearer to me. I could feel her warm skin and softness on my nape and back.

She purred --- “Are you tired, my baby prince?” resting her chin on my forehead.

“Hmmmm ……” I nodded. “Why were you awake for such a long time?” I asked her.

---“You told me to ….”

---“Your ChotoMa, what about her?”

---“She was on moon, long ago.”

---“Then what kept you waiting for so long?”

---“Oh! Damn, Subroto Da and Maithili were awake in their room.”

I asked her jokingly --- “What were they doing till this time?”

I love Paree’s blushes as she turned red --- “Dhaat, don’t pretend that you don’t know what a couple does at night?” Sweet small pat landed on my belly.

As my arms were stretched back over her luscious hind globes, I grinded them gently in my grip. My fingers dug into her soft buttery flesh.

I asked her in a teasing voice ---“What were you doing, you naughty girl? Have you gone jelly all over by hearing those pleasure moans?”

---“NO, I had to turn on the sound of TV bit louder so as to drown those moans.”

---“Don’t tell me that you were not enjoying those moans.”

She bit her lower lips and her nose tip turned crimson. My fingers were gently caressing all over her supple posteriors over her flimsy cotton night dress. Her dimpled cheeks were rosy, and that bunch of lock swayed over my face.

I whispered to her ---“I am sorry that I could not go with you today for movie.”

---“That’s ok, you should study hard. Your exams are nearing. Now go to bed, it is already half past one.”

I stood up from my chair and hugged her deeply entwining my arms around her narrow waist. She brought both her hands between our bodies and placed the flat of her palm on my chest and looked up at my face. I stooped down to touch her forehead with mine and cooed in her ears --- “Stay with me tonight.”

She pulled herself on her toes to reach my forehead with her lips--- “Not now, honey. You lie down on the bed; I will comb your hairs with my fingers till you sleep.” Such a beautiful lady; my Paree.

She sat on the bed with her legs folded under her bottoms and I lied down on the bed over my stomach placing my head on her lap. She combed my hairs gently with her thin soft fingers. I put my arms around her waist and hugged her tightly. The feeling was eternally blissful, as if lying on the heaven; my heart was filled up with a white fluorescent light of peace.

I started --- “Paree”

---“Hmmmm…..”

---“Subroto and Maithili were trying to fix me up with Arunima.”

---“I am aware of that, and I have full faith on you. I know why you are not visiting her house.”

I told her every single word that we had during the evening; also I expressed the looks and actions of Maithili towards me. Paree smiled at me. I asked her whether she was aware of these or not.

---“No I don’t have a bleak of information as of what would be brewing inside them. Let the time comes and let us wait for that. I told you Na, that I have full faith on you.”

I rubbed my nose over her slender soft thighs “Hmmmm….. You are really sweet and understanding.”

“I am older than you and so I have got some brains in my head, my baby prince.” Her voice was very soothing to my ears.

I felt that I should open my heart to her ---“I lied today. I went to college but I didn’t attend the practical class.”

She exclaimed --- “WHAT? What did you do then?”

______________________________

[usaiha2]

I mumbled a bit ---“Hmmmm….How to tell you… I was with my friend, my best friend. Her name is Debanjana Bannerjee.”


Paree’s fingers stopped combing my hairs, her grip felt bit firm on my hairs. Has she got tensed? I should not have told her, but she has to understand and know every bit of me my past and the people around me. I turned around keeping my head on her lap as it is and lied down on my back. I touched her palms which gripped my hairs and stopped at the middle of her act. There was an astounding gaze in her eyes, she was looking at my face trying to fathom as what I just said to her. I could read her mind saying that “How can a boy and a girl become best friend”.

I whispered to her---“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“You have not told me that you have another girlfriend?” there was a choke of disbelief in her voice.

“Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, misunderstanding ….” I murmured inside me.

---“It is a long story honey; please don’t cross me before you hear everything.”

I started telling her about my college days in the hostel. I had great affinity for arts and painting. From class seven or eight I nurtured my dream to be a great painter in future. I was an average student during my college days. My parents pressurized me every time. Being a single child of working parents is a boon or bane, I don’t know. I faired above average in my secondary exams, but I could not satisfy my parents. Fairing eighty percentages was not enough for them as the highest marks in my class peaked up to ninety two percent. I was compared in every step with others.

Paree was attentively gulping my story.

I carried on with my part. My parents pushed me to science, I wanted to study literature and continue my arts and painting and sculpture. On every step I was reminded by my parents that they have spend huge amount of money in my studies and send me to hostel to make an engineer or doctor out of me. Love or care can’t be measured by money. Probably they failed to understand that.

Paree’s soft palms gently caressed my forehead, a soothing sensation of peace flowed inside my veins. My voice was little choked while telling her all these. Her big eyes were not blinking even. The time stood still in the room. She wiped her eyes with the back of her right hand.

She whispered in a quivering voice --- “I know this part of the story. ChotoMa told me today.”

“WHAT?” it was my time, to get stunned.

---“Yes, she told me about her pains, while bringing you up. To know a river you have to view it from both the banks, now I have understood all. Wounds heal but scars remains. I am sure that I will someday fill your scars even.”

She wiped her pearl beads, and smiled at me --- “Now tell me, what I don’t know. Who is Debanjana Bannerjee?”

I told her how I got into college, I told her about Anusuya Chatterjee, the break up, her patch up with Sukumar. The rejection sent me to the abyss of Pacific. I felt secluded and alone in this world. She was attentively hearing all of my words, and gently rubbing her palm on my forehead and combing my hairs with her thin soft fingers. I told her that my nick name was “Bihari” in college. I had no friends, no one to share my joys and sorrows. Then I explained her incident that happened which changed my view and views of few other people around me. I told her about the ailment of Sarmishta and how I had to carry her to hospital. Then we, Debi and I shared a bond, a platonic bond. I also told her that how I felt about Debi and one day in Scoop I was about to fall for her but we moved ourselves, and we became some sort of inseparable best friends.

A deep warm breath gushed out of my mouth after finishing all my dark and rainbow past.

First words Paree spoke to me after hearing all these --- “I want to meet your Goddess. When and how can we meet?”

I smiled at her and said --- “Debi has asked for the same thing, how she can meet my EVE, my damsel.”

I took her hand and rested on my chest. She stooped down to touch my forehead with my lips. Suddenly a crow cawed outside.

She looked at the table clock and exclaimed --- “My God, It is about four thirty.”

---“This is what I am. That what my past is, open as a blank book in front of you.”

______________________________



She pulled the pillow and placed my head on that, adjusted herself beside me, seated on the side of the bed with her legs on the floor and face turned towards me. Soft soothing palms caressed my cheeks, wiping some beads from the corner of my eye. She took out my glasses and folded and kept that on the table.

“We should not forget our past, whether it is dark, white or be it colourful.” She continued in her calm voice “We should learn from our past and make the present and future life, a better place to live. Life is like a wheel, past sometimes catches up. We will face that together, my baby prince.”

She stood up from the bed to go out. I pulled her hand, she stopped and looked at me and said --- “You should take some rest now. We have a long day for shopping. Babu (she addressed my dad as Babu?) and ChotoMa are early riser, they will get up at six in the morning. I have to go.”

“Who are you?” I asked her in a choking voice.

She came near me, stooped down to kiss my forehead.

---“I am your Paree, I am your advisor, I am enchanting like Goddess Lakshmi, I am your Mother Earth to be patient and understand you, I am your Mother to take care of you and nurture you and I am your Rambha, Menaka to give you happiness and pleasure.”

Paree patted my cheeks gently and placed her index and middle finger on my eyelids to close them.

---“Sleep at peace; baby prince.”

She went out of the door closing it behind her.

Chapter 4: Unlawful Entry

-----------------------------

Mom pushed me --- “Get up lazy bones, it is already nine thirty and you are still in bed.”

In sleepy eyes I said --- “Oh! Ma, I slept late at night, please few more minutes” I pleaded her.

---“Subroto and Maithili have already left for Dhakuria. If you want to go with us for shopping then get up else you can sleep. Your dad has already left for office and I have not cooked lunch for you.”

I slapped my sleepy head, oh I forgot that today we were going for shopping, Paree will be within my sight for whole day long.

“Tea is on the table, get up, take bathe and come down.” Ma yelled at me before walking out.

I yelled at her --- “And what is your daughter doing? You will let her sleep and not me, that’s total unfair.”

---“She is better than you, idiot. She got up early in the morning and after having her bath she offered Puja in the Puja room. She is now in kitchen preparing the breakfast.”

I murmured in my head “My Paree knows how to win heart of her future mom-in-law and her beloved ChotoMa.”

I finished my chores and came running downstairs, yelling --- “Ting, ting, ting, ting …… fire brigade please, my stomach is on fire.” I knew that Paree was cooking breakfast so I was very happy.

She yelled from the kitchen --- “Stop shouting and sit in the drawing room. I am coming with your breakfast.”

She pushed aside the curtain and stepped into the drawing room with the breakfast plate on her left hand.

My jaw dropped as I saw her coming inside. Freshly bathed; her long wet hairs flowing around her neck, running over her left shoulder to the front over her bosom. Paree wore a cream coloured saree and crimson red blouse. Her face was radiating a halo of Goddess. Through her big eyes she was looking at my half opened mouth. A small dot of vermillion, probably from Puja room, decorated her forehead between those whip like arched eyebrows. Her creamy skin of her bare arms was glistening in the rays of the morning sun. A pair of gold earrings studded with two small white pearls, swinging from her earlobes. The same thin lock of jade black hair, swaying over her right cheek. Lips were rosy and still not smeared with lipstick, virgin as rosebud. Big black eyes like a pair lotus petals. Goddess Lakshmi of molten gold just has entered to feed my breakfast. I murmured inside me “This beauty is to behold, Abhimanyu and not to malign.”

She came near and placed the plate on the centre table and slapped my head, softly whispered --- “Come on; don’t look at me like that. Finish your breakfast quickly.”

I was still looking at her face; no words came out of my parted lips.

“If you stare at me like that then you are not coming with me.” I woke up from my trance as she slapped me once again.

I murmured in deep voice --- “WHO ARE YOU?”

She smiled and went away.

______________________________

It was already thirty minutes past ten, the time we started form our house for shopping.

My Paree was dressed in a peacock green shining salwar suit, quarter sleeves, which hugged her beautiful figure from her shoulder till her waist and then flowed down; the lower end of churidar was curled at her ankles. The back of her salwar was deep and tied in four strings. Her gorgeous back, playing hides and seeks with my hypnotic gaze. Her dupatta was of matching peacock blue colour with designer peacock eyes all over the fabric covering her bosom and the loose ends thrown backwards over her shoulders. My Paree was not walking in front of me but a beautiful peacock was softly trotting along with my mom. Her as usual long black tresses tied in a medium sized loose bun swaying just below her nape. Her earlobes were decorated with same gold dangling earrings studded with two small pearls. The right locks danced over her right cheek, the morning sun playing hide and seek behind a small grey cloud. Faint pink colour smeared on her lips and glistened each time she talked in her sweet honey filled voice. Her big black eyes; glistened with a joy. She was walking with her two most important persons in her life, her ChotoMa and Abhi.

Shopping, what a horrible thing for me. All those trances vanished while shopping with two ladies, two most important pillars of my life. First we went to ShaymBazar for buying sarees for Paree and mom. To choose three sarees they took about forty five minutes. Each time I looked at Paree, she gestured to me “five minutes more, please” but that five minutes never came to end. I murmured in my head that in future I will tell her that she needs to choose the colour before going for shopping with me, so as to choosing becomes easy. Shopping went on and on, my patience was getting tested and my strength also as I have to carry most of the bags.

Paree joked looking at my exhausted face --- “ChotoMa, see, I told you that we need a donkey to carry our bags.”

Ma looked at me---“Just few hours more, Abhi”.

Few hours more, damn. Fire was burning inside my head.

---“Ma, if she calls me donkey one more time, I tell you that I will kick her. You tell your child to keep her mouth shut.”

“Donkey, donkey, donkey ….” Paree kept yelling at me.

Mom smiled at Paree but told her nothing. They kept on walking from ShaymBazar to HathiBagan through BidhanSarani.

I asked mom --- “Why do you want to buy so many sarees and clothes? Paree has thousands probably millions of them. You are pampering her like anything.”

Now mom, looked at me bit angrily---“You have problem with that? If you have, then you can go home.”

I looked at Paree, she touched mom’s arms and asked her to cool down and gestured me to keep quiet.

From HathiBagan they bought salwars suits for Paree. Mom bought a silk saree also for Maithili and a Raymond Suit piece for Subroto. I slapped my forehead and murmured inside “You are buying for your future daughter-in-law that is ok for me but why to buy such expensive gifts for Subroto and Maithili?”

I asked mom that when Subroto and Maithili would return from Dhakuria. Mom said that by six in the evening they will be at home, and probably by that time dad would be present at home as he has half day at office on Saturday.

I was getting exhausted but also feeling happy as seeing Paree in-front of me. Every time I looked at her my exertions vanished. Her looks were acting as a rejuvenating potion for me.

It was about two thirty, mom asked Paree whether she was hungry or not. What the hell, Ma has completely forgotten me after seeing her daughter. Paree glanced at me over her shoulder. I smiled painstakingly towards her.

Mom asked Paree---“Ok, enough of these sarees and salwars. Do you want to try jeans and tops?”

Both my and Paree’s jaw dropped.

Paree looked at her ChotoMa with big surprised eyes; she was unable to believe her ears, same as mine.

Mom said to us ---“Why you two are looking at me like that? It is fashionable and now a day’s all the girls wears jeans and t-shirt and tops. You will be going to university then you might need some.”

In the middle of the road, Paree hugged mom---“My sweet loving ChotoMa. But I have not tried that in whole my life. I don’t know how will I look in that?”

Mom persuaded her ---“There is a first step for everything, ok. So you want or not.”

______________________________



Paree looked at me; I slightly danced my eyebrows not to catch attention of my mom and grinned cunningly at her, gestured that she would look flirtatious in those outfits. She blushed lightly and looked away from me.

---“Ok, so we postpone the BowBazar trip for some other day and go to Esplanade. We can buy you jeans and tops from either New Market or Shriram Arcade or Treasure Island.”

---“ChotoMa I am hungry.”

Mom looked at me ---“Ok, we go for lunch at Amenia at Esplanade then we go to Treasure Island or Shriram Arcade.”

We finished lunch with Amenia special mutton biriyani. Sumptuous delicious lunch. Mom and Paree seated opposite to me.

At the dining table mom looked at both of us ---“I have something to say you both as I have found time alone with you.”

We surprisingly looked at each other. Paree tweaked her lips as if asking “What has happened?”

Mom started ---“See, Abhi and Paree. Whatever is mine will be divided in two equal parts among both of you. I am saying and basically making this clear to Abhimanyu.”

I told to her ---“Why are you saying this now, we have time to talk all these later on.”

---“No, just in case you might have thought that Paree is taking your share, so I wanted to make that clear.”

My head burned up ---“You only knows money and nothing else. I have not asked for my share in your damn property. Keep that with you.”

---“Why are you yelling at me, I am just saying these.”

Paree threw her arms around mom’s neck and said ---“Please ChotoMa, stop these. We will have time for such discussion later on.” She winked at me pleading me to stop yelling.

I nodded my head in disgust.

While walking inside the Treasure Island, Paree asked me ---“Do you really like to see me in jeans?”

I danced my brows and whispered in her ears ---“Baby, you will look damn hot in those tight jeans and t-shirt.”

She blushed crimson and slapped on my arm softly without my mom noticing.

So three four jeans were bought for Paree along with t-shirts and various coloured tops.

By the time we started for our house, the sun was going down behind the Victoria Memorial and Second Hoogly Bridge.

Rest of the journey home, two chirpy ladies continuously talked at the back seat of taxi. I just kept quiet and at times glanced at Paree through the rearview mirror of the ambassador taxi.

Unforeseen was waiting for us at home, sipping tea at the drawing room. Arunima was seated beside Maithili on the long sofa of the drawing room. She leapt towards Paree hugging her in deep embrace although her eyes were fixed upon me. Paree was taken aback by her sudden appearance and actions. She looked at me; her jaws tightened a bit and then gave a beaming smile to Arunima.

---“Good to see you, after a long time after Subroto Da’s marriage.”

Arunima ---“When I heard that you have also come I pleaded Maithili Di to bring me here so that I can meet you.”

“What a cunning foxy liar” I murmured in my head.

Arunima bowed her head lightly towards me to greet me; a beaming smile was smeared on her thin red lips.

Mom was also surprised to see Arunima; she thanked Maithili that she has brought her to her house. My beautiful evening is going to get spoiled (or these three sirens will make my dreams wet?)

I told them that I was exhausted so I was going to my room for freshen up, I would join them shortly.

Paree already went to her room along with all the carry bags and packets. Before leaving the drawing room, I glanced at Arunima for a second, who was constantly looking at me for some attention.

The teenage girl like a budding rose, although not as voluptuous figure like Maithili or sensuous and beautiful like Paree. Yet her thin snaky frame could turn hundreds of heads. She was wearing a white platted skirt about knee length reaching about two inches below her knee so as make herself a virtuous yet alluring girl. Her small feet and ankles tapered up to dusky calves and above that I could not fathom much of her inner treasures. She was wearing a light blue silhouette hugging top. Her bosoms were round and firm, untouched (probably) invitingly sized up. I sensed that, those globes have to grow with time and nourishment of some cunningness. Her wheatish skin was smooth. She was sitting and looking at me, crossed legged and her arms rested on her lap.

______________________________



She has a haircut as far as my memories go, now her tresses ended just below her nape. Her round face and bit skinny cheeks gave her face an oval look. Eyes were small yet inviting and twinkling. A sharp small nose. A pair of gold top earring fixed on her earlobes. A gold titan watch was tied to her thin wrist.

While climbing upstairs, I tried to compare these three sirens present at my home under one roof, one beautiful, one sensuous and another flirtatious. Till few months back, I beholden only a divine beauty, then came an eternal beauty in my life now last night I devoured a sensuous beauty and now I find a flirtatious beauty. Nasty mind, the siren’s beauty has captivated my mind and brain. I had to make some reason to avoid meeting Arunima. I observed a hooded fire in Paree’s eyes as I was going out of the room.

After changing I came down and told to mom, that send some snacks and tea to my room, I would like to finish my optics practical lessons. All the ladies were seated on the Paree’s bed gossiping about the shopping and the dresses. Mom told me that she would send someone to my room. I observed that Subroto was looking at me in some disbelief as why I was not joining them. He probably sensed that I wanted to avoid Arunima. But he kept quiet and watched the television.

I was deeply engrossed in my practical lessons when I heard a knock on the door. I thought it would be mom or Paree with my tea and snacks. I looked over my shoulder towards the door only to get surprised that Maithili was standing with the tray.

I looked that voluptuous beauty with smiling eyes. Her eyes were inspecting my face trying to read my mind. I could not turn my gaze from her full round bossom; her cleavage peeked out from the upper part of her deep cut night gown. Although the night dress was of two parts with a total cover on outer gown, she has unfastened the belt of the outer gown purposefully. The inner gown stick lewdly with her sensuous frame, I could feel the flatness of her tummy narrowing to round waist and then curved behind forming two soft round bottoms. She placed the tray on the table and ruffled my hairs. I sat there in utter disbelief as what was going to happen. Her supple deep cleavage was just inches from my face when she kept the tray and ruffled my hairs with her thin soft fingers. I could smell a musky odour exhaling from the tiny pores of her skin. I was caught in a deep trance by all the vision and her actions.

She looked into my gaze filled up with utter disbelief and whispered to me --- “Can I sit here for some time?”

I looked at her face, I was quiet not in a state to speak, my throat has gone dry ---“Ok.”

She lied down on the bed, pulled a pillow and rested her upper torso on her right hand with her elbow resting on the pillow. Her reclined figure turned towards me, waves after waves formed on her frame. The flimsy fabric stuck lewdly between her supple slender round thighs and her juncture of her limbs portrayed an inviting “V” shape over the gateway of pleasure. She was not in a mood to hide anything from my burning gaze and a flirtatious smile beamed all over her face as if she was enjoying me ogling at her. The inner gown stuck on her torso as an upper crust of the earth revealing every curve yet veiled provocatively. I observed that there was no deep lining of her inner garments anywhere over her figure, which meant that she was bare inside waiting to get peeled.

“Are you trying to avoid Arunima?” she asked me in a deep tone.

I bowed down my head and rubbed my shoulders. ---“No, I am not avoiding anyone. I was bit tired of shopping today so I wanted some rest. Also I had to complete the practical lessons.”

“Ok” her eyes were fixated on my face trying to fathom my mind.

Churni smiled sweetly at me, biting her right little finger between her white teeth, her left hand was caressing her slender supple thighs in a very inviting posture. A warm gush came out of my parted lips. Her activities and smile were captivating my soul and brain, eclipsing the world around me, sending electrifying sensation all down my spine.

She continued ---“You have a girlfriend, right?”

I nodded ---“Yes”

---“What is her name?”

---“A friend from my college. Why do you want to know the name?”

---“There is no one, you are lying to me.”

I mumbled a bit, what to say. I have to pull my deity in these murky waters at last; she was the only straw I could pull at this time.

I clenched my jaws ---“No, Debanjana is my best friend.”

______________________________



---“So why haven’t you proposed her till now?”

Sorry DEBI, I am really SORRY, I had to drag you in this vicious game of eagle and snake.

---“I was waiting for a perfect time, to propose her.”

---“Don’t you think fate has some different path arranged for you?”

---“How?”

---“You haven’t proposed your girlfriend yet and meantime my sister comes into your life.”

---“So?”

---“Meet her, get acquainted with Arunima.”

---“And then?”

“Let the river flow to estuary” her eyes were twinkling; her smile was not sweet but luscious. Her face was beaming in a sinful expectation.

I had to throw a shield to her ---“Does Subroto knows that you have come here to serve me tea?”

She bit her lower lips and nodded her head to confirm that her husband knows that she has come here in fact everyone knows downstairs that she has come to serve me tea.

I thought that if it would have been Paree or Arunima coming into my room then it would have raised few eyebrows, but no one would suspect Maithili.

“I will meet your sister”, with a devilish smile on my face I continued “Let’s see where the river flows.”

She got up from the bed and stood near my chair on my right side and bend over the table provocatively. Her supple bust trying to free them from her deep neck night gown, the deep gorge was in front of my lustful sight. Her bending over the table made her beautiful posterior globes to thrust out backwards. The soft buttery flesh melted on my upper right arm as the side of her supple mound touched my skin. I restrained myself very hard from kneading and mauling her soft bottoms in my firm grip and dug my nails all over her buttery flesh of luscious globes. I restrained myself from pushing my face between those supple sumptuous bust and bite and chew her all over. All my body was burning in high fever of lechery. My staunchness was paining inside me. I was feeling dizzy in my head. Her deep musky fragrance filled my nostrils sending repeated jolts of high voltage all over my body. Churni’s left hand came up on my head; she ruffled my hairs again. I was going mad, my muscles forgot to winch.

She brought her face near my ear and whispered in a deep husky tone ---“You promised me that you will meet Arunima. I want you to keep that promise.”

The tip of her nose brushed my earlobes as she spoke those words in my ears. I shouted inside my brain but not a single word I could speak out as my throat gone dry as desert.

“Maithili, I would peel your dress, knead your supple soft bossom in my firm grip and chew your flesh till the blood oozes out of every pores of your bust. I would grab your soft round bottoms and maul those butter mounds badly and slap hard till your skin turns red and then I will take you down on the cold floor to intrude roughly through the gateways of pleasure and send you to the forest of Eden along with the snake of sin entwining around our mangled frames.”

Not a single word came out, not a single muscle of mine moved.

She twirled her voluptuous figure and walked away smiling naughtily at me, leaving me dumbfounded and stoned in that room.

Last words as she vanished on the staircase ---“I heard every word you murmured in your mind, Mr. Abhimanyu Talukdar.”

Chapter 5: Riding with Siren

---------------------------------

The morning was sunny and warm, the chill factor was not present in the air instead of that there was sweet cold breeze flowing around.

The ambience in my house was gloom after breakfast. Both Paree and her ChotoMa was calm and heavy hearted. I saw the pain of separation in their eyes. Mom and Paree were in her room packing some tit bits in last minute. I stood between the two pillars of my life, one who build my past another architecture of my future.

I put my arms on both their shoulders and hugged them trying to console them.

---“Why making so gloom face?”

None of them spoke a word and kept on with their work. Both gave a painful look at me.

---“Ma, Paree is not going away for long. She is coming back to you in April after Basanti Puja only and also you can visit her anytime while going to your college.”

Mom patted my cheek ---“You are not a parent still, so you won’t understand.” She wiped a small bead from the corner of her eyes.

Paree looked at mom’s face and sobbed ---“You promise to come to my house after your college.” and threw her arms around my mom sobbing softly in her arms.

Mom took Paree’s face in her palms and kissed her head --- “I promise, my child.”

There was an unwanted calmness in whole house. Maithili was acting very differently than last night. She always tried to look away whenever I looked at her.

Subroto came to me and said ---“Hey Abhi, good bye. I will expect you to come to my house anytime you feel so.”

---“Sure don’t worry. I will go. Tell my regards Grand Aunt and all others.”

Dad asked me to accompany them till the bus stand. Even if he would not have told me to do that I would have gone, my EVE was going.

Mom told to me that after they are gone, I would have to drop Arunima to her house at Dhakuria. I nodded to answer her that I will accompany her to her home. Arunima looked at me and smiled sweetly nodding her head gently to express her gratitude.

At the bus stand, I asked Paree to cheer up. A faint smile smeared on her lips, eyes bit deluged yet smiling beautifully. We looked deeply into each other’s eyes for a second. We could not kiss or hug or say something in front of Subroto or Maithili.

At last she said in a low voice ---“Study hard, your exams are near. For my sake you have to get good marks. And study optics seriously.” She winked at me.

The bus arrived, suddenly Paree put her right index finger in her mouth and soaked it with her saliva and touched my cheek softly, hiding from the sight of Subroto and Maithili. She sat on the next window seat, behind Subroto and Maithili. She brought her index finger to her lips and kissed it and swayed it to me, her signature flying kiss. The bus zoomed away.

I returned back and zoomed into my room as to fathom her wink. I opened my optics book and turned the pages to find something. On the fifteenth page over the new chapter in very small letters there was something written.

…..

“I will miss you. Kalyani’s number is xxxxx-xxxxx. Call me, I am waiting.”

….. A single line, meant so much for me, I felt strong presence of Paree in my room.

Arunima was ready for departure. Mom told me to say their regards to her parents and also I should meet her parents. I nodded my head and said that I will obey her every words.

I looked at Arunima as we walked towards the taxi stand. She was wearing a white three quarter jeans coming down just below her knees and a blue frilled top hugging her bust and tummy sticking wisely on her frame. A siren; a budding siren. We walked side by side, all the way to taxi-stand till we board that vehicle, we just kept quiet, saying nothing to each other occasionally exchanging courteous smile as our eyes met.

I sat at right hand corner of the seat; once the car started she came near me in the middle of the seat and looked at me with her smiling face through her sweet thin lips.

---“Are you trying to avoid me?”

I combed my hairs backwards with my fingers ---“No, not at all.”

“Then why haven’t you called me even after I gave you my phone number.” There was veiled anger in her voice.

I looked at her face --- “See, actually that piece of paper was in my suit pocket and after the wedding that has to be dry cleaned so it might have got misplaced somehow. I am sorry for that. But ….”

---“But what?”

---“Why were you expecting my call?”

---“Can’t I expect a courtesy call even, what type of chivalrous gentleman you are? Don’t know how to win a lady?”

______________________________



I murmured deep in my head “Don’t try to teach me how to win a lady.” I smiled faintly at her.

Her bare upper arms were touching mine above my folded shirt of my left arm. Her fingers were crossed and palms clutched resting on her lap between her thin yet slender thighs over her skin tight white jeans. I glanced with corner of my eye over from her waist till her face. She was all smiling at me constantly.

---“Ok you win; you are good player with your words.”

“What do I win? Just a courtesy call from you, only that?” there was mischievous smile beaming on her face.

---“You don’t know me yet, what am I who am I.”

She extended her right palm to shake hand ---“There is a first time in every person’s life. Ok, so let us get acquainted, what’s the harm. I am Arunima, call me Tuli.”

I took her soft palm in my hand and shook her tender soft fingers gently, she smiled at me sweetly. I smiled back.

I said to her looking directly in her eyes ---“You know my name very well”. I thought to flirt with her a bit so I continued “I know very well, Tuli, why you came to my house yesterday.”

She couldn’t hide her blushes and looked down to the floor of the taxi. I constantly looked at her blushing face. Small neat lips glistened a bit, smeared with dark brown colour, inviting I thought.

After sometime she looked again at me ---“You were bit gloom yesterday during dinner?”

A deep breath came out of my mouth ---“Yeah, my mom and Paree was depressed so was I.”

Next question send a jolt in my spine ---“Maithili Di was very calm after she came from your room yesterday night, why that so?”

I tried to look directly into her eyes trying to fathom as what she know about the last night.

In a deep voice I spoke “Ask her, how come I know.”

She bit her lower lips under her upper row and nodded foxily at me ---“I know her very well.”

It was my turn to get surprised now “What do you know?”

There was a perilous smile on her face---“I know her for last eighteen years. She is my elder sister.”

I looked outside; the taxi was crossing Sealdah Railway station, running through the A.J.C. Bose Road.

I clutched my left fist and brought it in front of my face and rested my chin on the lap of the thumb, intently hearing her words as she kept on talking.

---“Especially last five years I got acquainted with her very well, after she got engaged with Subroto Jiju. Although there is an age difference between us, she is twenty five and I only nineteen, but we share a very close bond. My Didi is very sweet and beautiful so as my Jiju, they really care for me and love me very much.”

I tried to surmise in my head as if what she was willing to say to me, but I failed to do so.

---“All they wanted to get me acquainted with some person whom they know very well.”

I smiled at last and said ---“OK, so here I come in the picture.”

---“Yes, now you come in the picture frame.”

I questioned her ---“Is there anything more you want to say about your Didi?”

---“You first tell me what happened yesterday night, why Churni Di was so quiet yet smiling, and then I will tell you.”

“Ok, so the game between the eagle and snake has begun. Let see, whether the river meets the estuary or not, let’s find out whether the curved beak survives or the deadly fang.” I murmured inside my brain. “I am not an average Bengali boy as you think; I can jump in to any situation. I am strong enough to play with fire.”

I clenched my jaws, my chin bones grinded over each other “Ask her if you are so curious to know.”

We kept quiet for long time looking outside the windows. Dhakuria was nearing.

I said to her---“Please excuse me today, I won’t be coming to your home today.”

She looked at me and grinned naughtily ---“If you don’t come to my house now, then I will call your mom and tell her that you have left me on the middle of the road and rest you know very well what would happen to you.”

I smiled back at her ---“Blackmailing me you naughty girl.” Let’s play the game siren.

I had no choice other than to obey her words.

I had to meet her parents. Her father works at Writer’s Building and her mother was a house wife. Her brother’s name was Arunavo, he studies in class eight. I came to know more about Maithili from them. Maithili was Arunima’s elder uncle’s daughter. She studied her senior secondary education and finished her graduation from this house. During that time Tuli and Churni got closer to each other. Churni cares her sister as if her own.

I was getting late to return home, so I had to bid them good bye.

Tuli came till the road to bid farewell.

I asked her ---“So, now you are happy that I came to your house?”

She smiled sweetly at me and nodded her head.

---“So can I expect that this is not our last meet? You already promised Churni Di.”

---“Frankly speaking, I don’t want to break your heart anymore.”

She touched my hand suddenly and said ---“Who told you that my heart will break? I just want a chance to prove myself.”

I waved to a passing by taxi to stop.

I boarded the taxi, as it was about to start, Tuli approached the window and winked at me whispered ---“I have a bagful of surprise for you, your dreams will be answered.”

I tried to understand her last words, what does she meant by that? I closed my eyes and rested my head on the backrest and tried to picturize the last words of Churni and Tuli. Do they have any connection between them? No that is quiet not possible. What type of game plan Tuli is planning to captivate me? If the ball has been rolled let’s see where it ends finally.

Chapter 6: Siren’s Captivating Music

-------------------------------------------

I got an unexpected call on Tuesday morning. Both mom and dad already left for their work place and I was about to leave for my college when the telephone ranged. I answered that call only to be surprised that it was Arunima on the other end.

---“You have forgotten to call me, right?”

---“Not actually, just two days have passed.”

---“Can we meet somewhere outside?”

---“Where?”

---“Come to Bhawanipore Metro Station, I will be waiting for you at two o’clock in the evening at the gate.”

---“Ok”

In the college, I told Debi about Arunima for the first time.

Debi said ---“Bihari, you dirty dog, don’t you feel anything about Suchismita? You have no conscience?”

I joked at her ---“One day match, Debi. The cricketer who plays test match also plays on one day pitch.”

---“This is not a cricket game, rascal, this is life.”

I winked at her ---“The dice has been casted, the ball has roll. I am a part of a bigger game and I want to see the end of that.”

I restrained myself from divulging further details and said to her ---“This is a game of eagle and snake, let see who wins?”

---“Who is snake and who is eagle?”

I boasted on myself---“Definitely I am the eagle.”

She pointed her index finger to me and cautioned me ---“Abhi, you are going to play with fire. This is going to be a dangerous game. If you burn yourself and then come to me, first I will thrash you black and blue and then apply burnol on those wounds.”

Debi was very angry upon me. I was just rolling in the inertia of the dice that has been casted.

I arrived at the metro station just in time. Arunima was standing at the gate of the subway. She was dressed in a white jeans and a blue top, this was not the same dress she wore while I dropped her to her house. The jeans were a full one, ladies jeans are always hugging their legs and thighs, and same was that with her top. She had a sling bag with her. I asked her that has she bunked her college, she said yes.

I asked her ---“Where do you want to go?”

Tuli beamed a soft smile at me and said ---“What about Rabindra Sarobar?”

---“Nah, I don’t want to go to places where there are all couples roaming. I feel awkward there.”

She asked me ---“Why so? Where do you take your friends in general?”

______________________________



---“Hmmm…. We friends generally go to Coffee House at College Street or just roam about in Esplanade or sit in The Flury’s at Park Street. So where do you want to go?”

She said to me that Nandan would be a good place to roam about. I complied with that and we spend that evening just chatting in Nandan.

Hours passed into days. Tuli and I used to meet every other day, somehow or somewhere.

At first my intention was to fathom her intentions, what was going inside her mind. She was a hard nut to crack or her music and trance was all over my mind and brain.

I came to know few things about her in these passing days. She love soft music, like sands and beaches, loves to watch English romantic movies and loves to eat all the fast-food.

I was also very fond of listening to music and I expressed that to her. One day she presented me a Sony Walkman so that I can keep that in my bag and listen to music whenever I want to; in bus or in the train whenever I had free time. I kept that portable music system always in my college bag and wherever I used to go I used to carry that. In college also among friends we used to exchange cassettes and I always kept a recordable cassette in my bag so as to record the lectures sometimes.

In the college, every time I looked at Debi, she used to smile at me and asked about my studies and all. The good friendship was turning in some pleasantry talks day by day.

I tried to explain Debi one day, about my intention.

---“Debi, see this is nothing. I am not falling for Arunima.”

She looked at me queerly and said ---“Do you really feel so?”

Her intent look burnt deep to the core of my heart.

---“Keep your hand on your heart and tell me what do you feel.”

---“I still love Paree same as before. My love has not diminished a single ounce. I just want to see the end of the whole story.”

---“Why do you want that?”

---“I already explained to Subroto and Maithili that I was engaged with someone, but you know, due to problem I could not tell them the name of the person I love. I am sure Maithili or Subroto must have told her that, that I am engaged. Now even knowing all these why Arunima is after me? I want to know the answer.”

Very cautiously I avoided my feelings about Maithili and those seductive poses she poised on the last night at my room.

I could not churn out much about Maithili from Arunima. Whenever I asked her about Maithili, Tuli used to divert the talks to something else.

One day I was adamant to know about Maithili. We were sitting at Coffee House sipping cold coffee.

I asked her ---“Tuli, whenever I try to ask something about Maithili. You try to avoid the question. Why so?”

---“Why do you want to know about my sister? She is married now.”

I thought that I should tell her about Maithili’s behavior on the last night before she went away.

Arunima looked at me with curiosity and asked ---“Do you feel something about her?”

The question sends a sudden jolt in the train of my thoughts.

I vigorously nodded my head---“NO, NO, NO, Not at all.”

She winked at me and with a sly smile she asked ---“Are you interested in her?”

---“What are you saying, Tuli. I was just asking you out of curiosity. On the first day when I dropped you at your house you told me that you share a very special relation with your sister so I asked.”

---“So actually you want to know about our relationship.”

“We share a very, very special bond between us. We share everything” Tuli winked at me while sipping the drink.

Through my glasses my inquisitive eyes were trying to understand her wink.

---“Don’t give me that look. She is just my elder sister. She tells me everything whatever she has in her heart.”

“That’s interesting that two cousin sister’s share much of their pep talks and all.” I said.

She only smiled at me and said nothing more about their relation or Maithili.

I looked at the rose bud sitting opposite to me. She wore a kurta and a skirt that day. Small built yet sensuously built. Her bosoms were shaped and smaller than other two beauties but luscious. She looked tender as a sapling, not yet tasted the rainy days of July. Very inviting smile always pasted on her lips whenever she looks at me.

______________________________



She was very different from her sister, her sister posses a very seductive figure. In my lecherous mind, I tried to picturize Churni in the skimpy red bikini that Subroto brought her during their honeymoon at Goa. She would look voluptuous in that skimpy two piece fabric. All those were just male testosterone running all over my brain and body. It was not out of love but a pure lust was growing inside me on each passing day to malign these two sisters.

Suddenly Arunima asked me ---“Tell me one truth.”

---“Yes”

---“Do you feel something for me?”

I had to veil my feelings that I don’t love you but lust your tenderness to get maligned in my lecherous embrace.

“I think I like you a bit.” A white lie escaped from my mouth, without blinking my eye.

With an inquisitive smile on her thin lips and a queer look in her eyes, she asked --- “Really?”

She kept the glass on the table and traced the back of my resting palm with her nails.

The scratching sensations send a thrill of chill on my arms. I took a deep breath so as to think as what was happening to me. I felt I am drowning in some dark well.

I looked deeply into her eyes and patted her palms ---“I like you really, but I can’t say anything about future.”

She smiled sweetly at me ---“Live the present, why think about future. Enjoy the life to the brim.”

I could feel the distance growing between me and Debi. The siren’s music captivated me into her charms. Paree used to come in my sweet dreams, but those were some distant dreams. Each passing day I saw her standing under a lonely mango tree with no leaves on it and looking at me with a faint smile o her sweet lips.

Four weeks has passed. Twelve days of meeting and knowing each other.

It was probably Tuesday night, second week of March; I got a call from Tuli.

---“Hello, Abhi.”

---“Yes, anything important? We just met yesterday.”

---“No and yes actually. I was throwing a small party at my house tomorrow evening. I thought if you could join us in that party?”

---“What kind of party….”

---“Just a small party, dear. You, me and few other dear ones.”

Actually I was thinking that why she could not be alone but something was running in back of my mind that I was slipping into a dungeon so I asked.

---“You won’t be alone, right?”

I could hear her sly smile---“Do you want me to be alone?”

---“No, I don’t want you to be alone, just asking.”

---“Ok then, good night. See you tomorrow by five o’clock at my place. You won’t be disappointed at all.”

I looked at the night sky after dinner. I saw a little boat rowing towards a small island. On the shore of the island a siren was seated on a stump of a fallen tree, playing a flute. The music was very enchanting. The person who was rowing the boat looked at me; to my utter amazement I saw that the person was none other than me. On the other horizon I observed that both the sun and the moon were glowing faintly and was about to dive under the Prussian blue sea. The shines and rays were getting faded from the sky with each pull of oar towards the island.

Chapter 7: Medusa’s Dark Lair

-----------------------------------

My heart was racing very fast, beating like a huge drum inside my chest as I got off the bus and walked towards Arunima’s house. I felt a deep urge to puff a cigarette so I bought a packet of Classic Mild from the nearby shop and puffed a stick in few long inhales, before knocking her door. The sun was going down on west. One by one the street lights were glowing. The streets were filled up with peoples and vibrant colours of the night Kolkata was showing its colours.

I ranged the bell, Tuli opened the door. On seeing her I felt a warm gush inside my head.

Tuli standing in-front of me with a sweet sexy smile on her thin lips, brown lipstick smeared on her lips. Her attire was more of revealing than covering her budding assets. I looked at her from toe to head in my utter amazement. She was wearing a short plaited blue coloured skirt, which came down about six inches above her knees. Her small beautiful calves of wheatish colour; shining in the low light of the doorway. Above her knees her upper limbs were widening very shapely and disappeared under her skirt. The waist band was few inches below her navel centered on her soft round belly. A small plumpness bulged out due to the tight waist band of the skirt, creating a small wave under her belly button. Her not so deep navel perched at the centre of her flat tummy. The belt of the skirt was tied to her narrow waist covering her preferably not so wide hips covering her small round bottoms. The plaids were dancing over her soft firm bottoms, pure female flesh. She covered her bust under a sleeveless bust hugging white coloured workout bodice. Her small yet firm and round bosoms pressed together and pushed outwards. I could see two small sized gbangs placed at the centre of her twin round soft peaks. Her taunt tender tips could be easily be observed through her bust hugging fabric, leaving nothing for my imagination that she was not wearing any piece of threads under that bodice. Her soft tender upper chest bulged up to her deep cleavage between her twin mounds of small firm bosoms. My staunchness was growing inside me. A lusty heat was flowing down my spine. A musky fragrance filled my nostrils. I looked further up to her face. Her hairs tied in a pony tail behind her head. Black eyes beaming with mischievous smile. Two gold eardrops pasted on her earlobes. Her thin slender neck, soft skin of her bare shoulders, glistening in the low light of the doorway. She was holding a glass of some dark coloured drink, probably Coke or Pepsi in her left hand. I was captivated totally and drowned in her seductive beauty.

Tuli looked at me while I was staring at her with my lustful eyes.

She smiled seductively at me and said ---“What are you looking at? Will you care to come inside or just ogle me while standing here?”

She broke my trance as I trotted inside behind her.

While she walked, her fairly wide hips swayed sideways, better say provocatively she swayed her soft round bottoms covered under the small skirt. The plates danced and bounced over her fleshy round bums. I felt a strong urge inside me to hold her hands, take her in my arms, hug her tightly and kiss her luscious lips, lick her nectar and knead her small firm bosoms. Knead those small firm fleshy mounds in my grip and bite her slender neck and shoulders.

Damn, God, what was happening to me? I was slowly walking into Medusa’s dark lair totally engrossed by the siren’s magnetic beauty.

In the drawing room, she pointed me to sit on the long sofa with her left hand and while pointing her palms brushed my chest, as she was holding her glass also with the same hand, she spilled the liquid all over my shirt.

She exclaimed ---“Oh Shit, I am sorry. Why don’t you sit down and take off your shirt. I will wash that and press that for you.”

All the time I was just in a magical trance.

I looked around the lobby; the lights felt beautifully lightened giving an amorous ambience. A soft music was playing on the sound system probably santoor recital of Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma.

I gathered up some saliva to soak my dry throat to ask her ---“You told me that you won’t be alone. But I don’t see anyone here. What’s the game are you playing?”

She smiled at me seductively and licked her upper lip with her snaky tongue.

---“You are not coward, Abhimanyu. I told you that we won’t be alone, so no need to fear me. Takeoff your shirt please, sit quietly on that sofa.”

I took off my shirt, her burning gaze poured on my broad chest. My upper torso was only covered with a sleeveless vest.

I reclined on the sofa with my head on the backrest and arms on my lap, trying to adjust the burning sensation on my loins. She took the shirt and slowly walked towards a room. She looked at me with corner of her eyes over her shoulder and threw a sly smile with her fingers on her pouting lips.

---“Wait for the surprise, dear.”

I looked around the room. The room was well decorated with some paintings and at one end there was a huge cupboard filled up with different books and toys and decorated vases. On the right side of the hall there was there dining table with four chairs. A small basket was at the centre of the table filled up with some fruits like bananas and guavas. Two small couches placed perpendicular to the long couch, and there was a round glass centre table in the middle. On the floor, under the couch and the centre table, there was a huge carpet. Just in-front of the wide couch, there was door covered with a curtain which was gently flowing in some breeze.

______________________________



Probably that was Tuli’s room. I looked back; there was another room at the back of the long couch. That doorway was also covered with curtain, but there was a dim light inside the room.

On the centre table I found three glasses and a bottle of vodka, White Mischief and on a tray there was ginger and lemon and salads, properly dressed and kept. A medium sized glass bowl was by the side filled up with cashew and almonds and walnuts.

All the time I was all quiet, saying nothing, just watching the flow of the incidents.

I took out a stick and lighted. In a deep hale I must have puffed quarter of the nicotine inside my lungs. As I exhaled I saw the siren pushed aside the curtain and cat walked towards me.

I placed my left hand on my mouth and clenched my fist and smiled devilishly to her. She was also smiling teasingly at me.

I asked her ---“You are alone, if I am not wrong. I don’t feel any presence of anyone in the house. Where is your parents and Arunavo?”

Tuli trotted just like a peacock and sat in-front of me on the centre table. Her bare knees were touching mine, over my jeans. The male testosterone was showing it presence. She sat with her knees pushed between my parted knees. The skirt moved up her slender thighs about half length of her upper limbs. Her soft smooth thighs were although pressed together. She bent towards my face and rested her palms on my thighs. I could feel her heat oozing out of her sensuous frame all over. Her cleavage was totally exposed under my view just below my chin. I could not takeoff my eyes from those soft round mounds.

In a deep husky tone she whispered ---“My parents have gone to my maternal uncle’s house. They are not going to come for tonight.”

As she spoke her; I could feel her warm breath all over my face. With squint eyes she looked into my eyes and gently rubbed my thighs over the coarse jeans fabric. My heat grew to its peak burning all over my body.

I was in a dilemma that, should I kiss this bewitching lass? But I restrained my feelings. Why I restrained that strong invitation, I didn’t have the answer then.

All of a sudden Tuli placed all her five fingers of her right hand, on my face and gently grazed her soft slender fingers all over. The touch hurled me over the top of Pleasure Mountain. I could feel my heat growing to its brim and having a hard time inside my jeans.

---“You like me, right? Just say once.”

To my utter disbelief I yelled out ---“Yes l like you, I like you very much.” But alas those were not the words that came out of my lips finally, in fact nothing came out of my lips. I sat there dumbfounded.

She continued in her same husky tone ---“What do you want me to do? Do you want a drink?”

I nodded my head that I need a drink badly. My ears turned red, the front part of my jeans clearly outlined my lewd organ to its full strength.

Slowly she got down from the centre table and kneeled on the carpet beside the table.

I clenched both my fists and bowed down my head, resting my head on my clenched fist, elbow resting on my thighs and body pushed forward. I took a deep breath to prepare myself for a deep plunge into the sea of lust and carnal desire. What is pulling me from behind and restraining me from doing so? I closed my eyes tightly.

I sat there in that posture with my head down for few minutes and was imagining Tuli in her full bare glory.

I heard a sweet husky tone ---“Hi, how are you?”

Slowly I pulled up my face towards the line of the voice. That was not the voice of Tuli, I have heard this voice before and this was not of my EVE also.

My eyes got fixed on the door in front of me. More surprise was waiting for me at the door.

A voluptuous mermaid was standing at the door; none other than Maithili, totally unexpected.

She was wearing a white half sleeved shirt with sleeves folded up to bare her long slender arms.

Out of six buttons, the top three and the last one was unfastened.

I bit my index finger hard between my teeth in my utter disbelief, that I would find Churni to be present. Slowly the whole game plan was getting clear in front of my eyes. These two sensuous sirens captivated me in their enchanting music and now I was dancing according to their tune.

Her shirt came down till the juncture of her limbs barely covering her luscious plump bottoms.

She stood in a very seductive pose, resting her whole weight on her right limb, and her left one bit crossed at the front.

______________________________



Her right arm, placed on the panel of the door above her head while her left arm bend and rested on her narrow waist.

Her fairly long hairs unfurled untied, flowed over her left shoulder to the front of her shirt, bouncing softly over her heaving bossom.

The pair of soft round bosoms; jostling inside the thin fabric of her shirt, trying to breathe out of the tight shirt.

The side of her soft bosoms was clearly visible from that distance, the creamy smooth skin shining brightly in the light of the room.

Softness of her full bust could be felt by my hungry eyes. Her twin peaks was decorated with hard pebble which was clearly outlined and visible from the fabric. Taunting me hard, to tweak those pebbles between my fingers.

I observed that her fairly round bust was not covered under any strings and the narrow lane between her twin globes was also clearly visible.

Her narrow waist widened to fairly broad hips, unable to hide under the length of her shirt.

Full grown luscious bottoms were bare as my palm, the round curves shining all over sending several jolts down my spine.

She was seductively rubbing her thighs together, which made her crotch to play hide and seek behind the open part of her lower shirt.

I tried to look deep at her crotch to find whether she was wearing anything underneath or not.

A pair of cream slender tubular thighs shining in-front of my full view. The bright light of the drawing room was slipping on her creamy skin, glowing in lusty heat.

With her squint eyes, she looked at my gaze as my eyes were voraciously devouring her curves and contours like a hungry hyena.

Tuli stopped pouring the drink in the glass and looked at me with a naughty smile all over her lips.

---“Do you like the surprise, honey.”

The husky tone was too much for me to contain myself. I bit my index finger between my teeth very hard to suppress my lust.

Very slowly and seductively Churni cat walked towards me, trotting towards me like a crane, each step she took towards me, I felt the burning heat flowing inside the room.

Her strides were just like a hungry tigress, waiting to prowl on her prey. Her heavy bottoms swayed sensuously sideways with each step she took towards me. The lower front part of her shirt danced over her crotch.

The dark shade under the fabric was unable to hide the red colour of her loin cloth as she came near to me and stood beside the small couch.

I looked at her face, which was beaming with a sensuous smile. She bit her lower lip with her upper jaw. The small black dot over her upper lips made her smile more alluring to me.

I took a deep breath in total disbelief, and a deep exhale came out of my parted lips.

---“Uffffff………. What is this?” I looked directly into Churni’s face.

She sat on the small couch which was perpendicular to the long sofa, just beside me and crossed her legs.

I looked at her bare thighs, her creamy skin glowing, radiating a halo of burning lust.

The bulge under her thighs could be seen easily, divulged that her soft bottoms are ready for hard caresses and strong slaps. The dark crack between her under thighs, intimated me that the thin string holding her loin cloth has disappeared between her hind globes and sticking painfully over the gateway of pleasure hiding her neat folds of rosy petals.

I looked up to her full bosom, which was now clearly visibly from the angle I sat.

I was tracing every inch of her bare skin and softness of her left busty mound. The dark pebble mounted on her peak was now playing hide and seek.

The circle around the pebble looked like a pink halo in the middle of the cream soft skin.

Upper part of her chest was total bare, her bosoms were heaving up and down in a very perfect rhythm.

She rested her chin on her left palm and rested her elbow on her slender upper limb, and put her right palm over the small of her knee gently rubbing herself in round circles. Faint blue and red veins striped under her creamy smooth skin of her round tubular thighs.

Her cheeks were turned red and she licked her upper lips with her snaky tongue.

The bunch of her locks were dangling at the front and caressing her own bust gently.

______________________________



I totally forgot the presence of Tuli in the room. The mermaid captured me in her net.

---“Are you surprised to see me, Mr. Abhimanyu Talukdar?”

I smiled devilishly at her and said to her in a deep voice ---“Surely, Churni. Even in my wildest dream I have not thought that you will be here.”

---“Your burning gazes have ignited flame inside me. Are you going to reduce me into ashes, honey?”

I muttered some strength at last ---“No this is not fair, Churni.”

---“Why this is not fair? I fascinated you from the moment you fascinated me. On the first night at your room, you kneeled down in-front of me with your strong arms outstretched. Tell me the truth, that if you had got the chance then, you would have hugged me in your strong arms.”

My goodness, how come she thought that I sang for her, when actually I was saying that to my Paree and not for her.

I mumbled a bit ---“That was not for you Churni.”

---“Don’t lie to me, I saw a burning fire in your eyes that day, and that burning desire can’t be for Suchismita at least.”

I thanked God, that she has not suspected our sweet love affair.

She looked at Tuli, who was closely observing her sister and devouring her acts of seduction.

Churni asked me ---“Do you want a drink? I know you want a glass badly.”

I reclined on the sofa, upper part of my torso bent at an angle and my bottoms at the edge of the couch, stretching my legs bit forward. My rigidness was now heavily straining and pulsating inside me jeans. The short movements of my crotch were not hidden form their burning lusty gazes.

I outstretched my arms on both sides of the couch and rested on the back of the sofa. Wide arms and strong built of my chest allured those sirens. I was still in my sleeveless vest.

---“You like my sister?”

---“No, I don’t.”

---“Oh come on, don’t lie. Your eyes are telling the truth that you want both of us.”

---“That’s not true.”

She handed me the glass ---“Have a drink first. Mashed ginger, a pinch of lemon and full of soda and of course vodka. Your heart and mind will open out.”

While handing me the glass she intentionally lingered her finger on mine, sending jolts of thunder all over my body.

I looked at the drink and then at her and asked ---“How come a naïve girl from Ranaghat is so apt in making a drink like this?”

She took a glass of drink and placed it near her red pouting lips and rolled the edge of the glass on her lips.

---“You are forgetting Abhi that five years of my youthful ripe life I have spent in Kolkata. I have gone to The Underground at Hotel Hindustan International also.”

I nodded my head in disbelief that such a girl can be so seductive and now she is beautifully venomous.

Tuli also had a glass in her hand and sat beside Churni on the hand rest of the small couch. The skirt has curled up quiet far and revealed her bare thighs and part of her crotch.

The bodice was now not able to contain the fullness of her small ripe bosom. The small pebbles turned to pointed gbangs, directly beckoning me. Her small flat tummy now created few waves of soft flesh as she sat resting her elbows over her sister’s shoulder.

The seductive poses of two sirens were making me mad. They were waiting for a hungry hyena to leap forward and maul them together.

I followed Churni’s gaze, she was directly looking at my firm thickness throbbing under the jeans.

---“You can’t hide the way you are looking at us.”

I poured the whole glass in a single gulp and brushed my hairs with my fingers and smiled devilishly at Churni.

I looked down on her creamy thighs, she was gently moving the tubular limbs one above the other. The rubbing of herself has made her skin turned reddish.

She winked at me ---“Are you trying to find as if what I am wearing underneath?”

I laughed as if I got caught in my act of peeping.

______________________________



She gently nodded her head ---“I am wearing the same red skimpy bikini Subroto brought for me during our honeymoon. I saw your imaginative eyes filled with lust when you heard of the story.”

My college bag was lying on the other side of the sofa, I just looked at my college bag for once to divert my burning gaze from this two seductive females.

---“Don’t look away. If you want to taste the fragrance of the rose bud, then you have to crush the full blown rose.” A devilish smile all over her face.

Churni was caressing Tuli’s bare thighs all over till the juncture of her limbs.

Tuli was shaking lightly as if a twig was swaying in an autumn breeze.

She bent down over Churni and her right hand came under Churni’s chin to pull her face up. In front of my burning eyes, the two sisters planted a hot smooch on each other’s wet lips.

I could see that a pair of velvety snaky tongue thrust out of those wet mouth trying to suck and twine with each other.

Tuli’s right hand came down and with the flat of her palm she caressed the upper part of Churni’s bosom.

I screamed at those ladies engrossed in their love actions ---“Stop that.”

Churni’s broke her kiss and hissed at me ---“Why? Are you coward, to approach us?”

Tuli was panting hard and was mashing her heaving bosoms with her right hand. Groping her soft mounds in her tender fingers. Her squint eyes were pouring out the lava of lust.

Slowly Churni stood up, I looked at her voluptuous figure as she came near to me, very near, stood only few inches from my face and her legs were touching my outstretched knees.

The lower part of her shirt could not hide the red skimpy bikini. The small thin fabric hugged her nether parts as her second skin. A strong musky fragrance was emanating from each pore of her slender thighs. Her tummy was just in front of my eyes. She looked at my gaze which was intently looking down her crotch. Her slender thighs were so full that at the juncture, even a thin blade of grass could not be passed.

With a sudden pull, she took of her shirt over her sweating figure and she stood there in front of me in her full glory with only her skimpy red bikini bottom to cover the entrance of carnal pleasure.

I looked up to her full grown bosom, the under curves of her bosom were so aptly perching those huge soft twin fleshy mounds. Dark gbangs sized pebbles came into light. A light pink tint of halo surrounded those pebbles. I could observe few tinny tendrils at the side of the pebbles. Her heavy bosoms were heaving hard in long breath.

Few blue and red veins of blood vessels were stranding outwards from the centre of her bosom till her upper chest. Her creamy skin felt buttery soft.

I looked down to her flat tummy. A deep well, her beautiful belly button was perched at the centre of the creamy plateau. I observed very tiny wheatish coloured tendrils below her deep navel, growing down wards forming a very faint trail of tendrils till the curve of her under belly. The under belly was bit fleshy and was shaking in a deep excitement. Those tendrils were swaying unnoticeably as I was blowing hot breath all over her abdomen.

My lusty gaze grazed moved down to her crotch.

The small red “V” shaped fabric was pasted like paint on the passage of pleasure cave. Thin red string tied at both ends of the “V” shaped fabric, pulled up the flimsy fabric so tight that it clearly outlined the doors. The doors were plump and soft and fleshy.

The long fissure between two lotus petals shaped nether lips was clearly outlined.

A musky and maddening scent was oozing out as I observed that the fabric was already soaked with some juices that might have flowed down from those partially opened passageway.

There was no dark bush surrounding the pathway of pleasure. Instead of that there were very small black curly tendrils grown all over her nether parts.

She looked down to my face and brought her left hand between her slender thighs.

She stretched out her ring, middle and index finger and touched her pleasure passage and rubbed those soft petals up and down. Her rubbing pushed that thin flimsy fabric to hide between the pink petals hidden under the outer walls.

I was having a hard time to contain myself. I don’t know why I restrained myself.

She rubbed her passageway in few soft strokes; juices deluged the fabric and her fingers were glistening with her nectar of pleasure.

______________________________

[usaiha2]

She brought her fingers to her lips and sucked and licked between her lips.


Churni moaned out softly ---“Ummmmm…… my own juices are making me mad.”

Churni then kneeled down between my parted thighs and placed her palms on my knees.

Her deep amorous gaze was burning each and every inch of my skin.

She pushed her back of her palms all over my knees till my belt. Her act made her lean forward and her soft bosom touched my thighs; she crushed her full blown soft bosoms on my thighs over my jeans.

I could feel my hotness peeking at the end of my belt. The bulbous tip was about to ooze blood already.

She shook her head and twirled her hairs to fall all over my thighs.

A musky fragrance again filled my nostrils.

I felt a strong urge to pull Churni on my lap and tear that small piece of fabric from her body and crush her under my heavy weight and maul her all over.

Her back was thrust outwards. The thin red string around her narrow waist was a beautiful contrast with her creamy skin. The wide hips supported by her supple flesh bottoms were about to get thrashed read and blue under my slaps. The thin string disappeared round, between her plump round bottoms. The soft skin shining all over, tiny goose bumps could be seen all over her smooth skin of her fleshy hind globes.

I forgot that there was another hungry tigress cub in the room. I was so engrossed in the acts of the hungry mermaid that I even forgot anything around me.

I was totally helpless by her actions as she has pinned my lower part of the body under her supple soft bosom.

Her chest grazed upwards and she perched the fissure between her heaving bosoms just on my taunt loin. I was not able to breathe even.

She moaned out softly and her eyes rolled as her snaky tongue touched her upper lips as she felt my rigid iron over her skin.

---“Mmmmmmm…… So hard and rigid and hot and burning. I feel that you will tear me apart, you will penetrate into my stomach and the tip will come out of my mouth.”

Her soft bouncy hairs were caressing all over my abdomen.

She pulled out the vest out of my waist band of jeans and placed all her ten fingers on my tummy. I was sweating profusely so was she.

He chin was so near of my bulbous tip that she might have smelled the secretion from the small hole at the tip.

All of a sudden I held her by her hair at the back of her head in my strong left grip and tried to push her. But her grip was very firm on my belt and on doing so her full bust got more melted on my bare skin of tummy.

For the first time our bare skin touched each other and she whimpered like a hungry tigress.

She grazed her upper part of the body slowly all over my abdomen and then till my chest.

The touch of her taunt pebbles and soft mounds of feminine flesh rubbing all over my bare skin made me mad in burning lust.

She felt my organ throbbing on her tummy.

Her arms came up to my collar and clutched my shoulder muscle and hissed out ---“Don’t you feel my heat? Why are keeping everything to yourself.”

She touched my chin with her chin and snaked out her tongue ---“Take me Abhi to the dark forest of desire and malign me.”

My left grip was still fastened on the back of her head.

I could feel her warm breath all over my face, pouring hot molten lava with each exhale.

I looked deep into those burning eyes. I was also breathing hard, panting like a blacksmiths woven.

Her full grown bosoms were now crushing and rubbing on my bare chest.

I flung my head back and closed my eyes, still her hairs were in my grip as she was placed her wet lips on the upper part of my chest.

Her arms came between our crushed sweating bodies on the buckle of my belt and unbuckled my belt and tried to pull down the jeans and my underwear.

I had my eyes closed tightly so only I could feel the cold air all of a sudden on my bulbous red tip. I shivered violently.

I opened my eyes and looked towards the ceiling and suddenly I saw a pair of beautiful dark deluged eyes looking at me from the ceiling. My EVE was looking at me with red eyes, the tears rolled down her cheeks.

______________________________



Her lips were quivering in deep pain. She stretched out her arms beckoning me to her. The index finger of her right hand was red with her blood. I remembered that Paree’s blood was running in my vein, she made me suck her blood, a small present but a valuable one at Nako.

Somehow I reached my college bag and fumbled for the cassette recorder with my right hand and switched on the record button.

Churni was so engrossed in her actions that she did not actually noticed as what I was doing.

Then I gathered all my courage and held her by her hairs and pushed her on the floor.

She fell on the floor with a thud and looked at me hungrily.

Her bare bosoms were heaving heavily with long exhales. Her face was bloody red and she was sweating as I was.

All of a sudden with the back of my right hand I landed a hard slap on Churni’s right cheek.

She was taken aback by my actions. Tuli came running. All of a sudden I felt that Tuli was also present in the room.

I buckled my belt and then screamed to Churni ---“You bitch. Don’t try to play with me. Why you did this to me even after knowing that I was engaged?”

Churni hissed out at me like a wounded tigress ---“You did this to me by your looks and burning gaze.”

I shouted at her ---“That’s all male testosterones and nothing else. If I ogle at any one in the street that doesn’t mean that I want that female on my bed.”

---“Why you then roamed with Tuli if you had your girlfriend?”

---“I wanted to know the game that you were playing. But just tell me, you are already married and how come you have done this to me? Does your husband know you are here?”

The surprise was more for me ---“Yes, Subroto know how you ogle at me and he knows that I am here.”

I sat on the couch with a thud and groped my hairs in my clutch ---“My God, you husband and wives, what type of people you are? I am going to kill you for your deed.”

She hissed out again ---“Is Debanjana more beautiful than me? Is she more seductive in nature than both of us?”

The name of Debi coming on this slut’s lips made me burn in rage. I landed another slap on her face, this time it was pretty hard and her creamy cheeks turned red and four straight marks could easily been seen.

Tears rolled down her eyes, Tuli took her sister in her arms and tried to say something to me.

But in my head I was boiling in anger ---“Shut up you bitch. Ever never take my deity’s name on your filthy tongue. I will cut that and feed that to dogs.”

I turned to Tuli and pointed my index finger ---“You also knew that I had a girlfriend and even after that you played with me. How dare you do that?”

Churni hissed as a wounded venomous snake at me ---“You will pay for this slap and denying me.”

---“What can you do to me?”

---“I will tell everyone, Ulupi Di, that you have maligned me and taken me on the cold floor forcibly.”

---“No one will believe a slut like you.”

---“I am not a slut to them. I am a virtuous wife and a pious daughter-in-law. They will believe me and you will be thrown out of your house and your life will go to hell.”

---“I knew from the beginning that there was dangerous game of eagle and snake was getting played. The deities name that you took on your lips, she is a goddess to me, she warned me of the inevitable but alas I paid no heed to her words.”

I took the white shirt that Churni wore and threw that to her to cover her, and then pointed to Tuli and asked her to bring my shirt.

Large drops of tears rolling down Churni’s eyes “I will make you pay for this. I promise.”

A deep growl sounded inside my head, the voice was of my Goddess, Debanjana “Perseus, you have entered the Medusa’s dark lair. You have to fight or you will turn into stone. Take out your sword Perseus and slit the throat of Medusa.”

Churni wrapped the shirt around her body and sat on the carpet by the side of the centre table.

Tuli handed my shirt to me.

I took out the Sony Walkman from my bag and waved in front of their deluged eyes.

---“I have proof. All this conversation has been recorded in this walkman. I was prepared for the game.”

It was now their turn to be surprised.

Churni’s face turned to horror, and her eyes were now pleading.

I sat in the sofa just near where Churni was seated. I bend down and looked at her tearful eyes.

She wiped her face with the back of her left hand.

I said to her ---“Churni, try to change yourself, else you will end up as a whore in Sonagachi or BowBazar.”

I buttoned up my shirt, picked up my bag and walked towards the door leaving those two ladies doused in their tears.

I opened the front door to step out.

Churni cried in top of her voice ---“Abhimanyu, do you know who you are? You were the bravest son of Arjun who dies in the battle of Kurukshetra on the battlefield. You are brave but alas you die at last.”

I didn’t looked back and closed the door behind me and stepped on the street.

Chapter 8: Midnight Confession

-------------------------------------


I walked on the crowded street, alone, confused. My eyes soaked with tears, feeling heavy hearted and lost in the crowd.

What have I done, where should I go, and to whom should I seek the solitude? I looked at my watch; it was already eight thirty at night. I did not want to go back home after all these heavy storms. I didn’t have the courage to face Debanjana or Suchismita. I lost my faith on myself. Paree will never forgive me for my actions. My legs were shaking; frequently I was wiping my eyes and nose.

I called at my house somehow and told my mom that I won’t be coming that night and I would be staying at Debashish’s house. I very well knew that mom doesn’t have the telephone number of Debashish so she would be unable to confirm whether I was at his house or not.

I took a bus and went to Esplanade and sat under the Monument. The dark night was growing around me, so were the bright lights of Esplanade. The life around me was vibrant; I looked around me, all sorts of people of all ages, cast and creed. They all look happier than me. Some might be hiding their pain like me under their smiley face. I didn’t have the time to think of others, I was thinking as what type of lecherous person I was? I had no one to share my regrets.

I puffed a cigarette again and sipped a cup of tea from dingy road side tea stall. From the tram stand, I walked slowly towards the bus-stand on the other side of the road. While crossing the road, I saw a very dirty looking person squatting on the footpath, with torn clothes and disheveled hairs. He was a beggar or a mad person. I felt deep inside me that this person must have lost something valuable in his past that has turned him to be like this. I felt that I was seeing my future in-front of my eyes. I stood at a distance from that beggar and looked at him. That person was also looking at me. After sometime the beggar outstretched his right arm and asked for alms.

---“In the name of God, please give something to feed the old person. (,.'! Ke naam pe, iss budee baba ko kuch de do.)”

I walked slowly towards him and took out a ten rupees note from my pocket and handed that note to him.

He looked at the note and then looked at my face and said to me something. This time he did not sounded that he was insane.

---

“Tu Badr Nehin Jo Shams Se Roshan Ho (You are not the moon, who shines in sunlight)

Tu Badr Nehin Jo Shams Se Roshan Ho (You are not the moon, who shines in sunlight)

Tu Unn Sitaron Mein Hain (You are one bright star)

Jo Bhatkye Rooh Ko Raah Dikhayee (Who shows path to disgruntled persons)

Rehnuma Baan Aur Aapne Qualb Ki Pukaar Sun (Be a guide and hear to the call of your heart)”

---

I understood as what he said. I bowed to him for his words.

I should not act like a looser, my heart, my EVE has called me from the ceiling which restrained me to delve in to the dark passageways of those venomous sirens. I should open my heart now before the wound gets septic and rots my mind and soul.

I called from the nearby PCO to Kalyani’s house. It was nine o’clock in the night.

---“Hello, I am Abhimanyu. Remember me?”

______________________________

She was surprised to receive my call and also in the dead night, village people tend to sleep early.

---“Yes, I remember you very well and how can I forget you. You are still fresh as Suchismita is all praises about you.”

After a bit pause ---“But in this late night. Why have you called?”

I pleaded her --- “I need to talk to Paree, now. But not on phone.”

---“Then?”

---“You have to call her to your house and make some excuse to Grand Aunt.”

I heard her smile naughtily --- “Why, can’t you wait for the Basanti Puja to meet yours …. Hmmmm…. Naughty boy…”

My voice turned deep and choked ---“I have no intention for that, Kalyani. Please. Call her.”

She probably sensed my choking --- “Where are you now?”

---“I am at Kolkata Bus Stand and I am coming, probably in the last bus.”

---“Ok, I will do that. Have a safe journey. I will send Dipankar to pick you up from the bus stand.”

---“Thank you very much. Bye. See you.”

I ran to the CSTC bust stand and asked for the last bus that would depart for Baduria. The conductor told me that the bus was going to leave by nine thirty and I had ten minutes more to take the seat. This would be the last bus for that day.

The bus raced to the destination cutting through the dark lonely highway. Whole the time of the journey, my heart was beating faster with each passing kilometer. My ear drums were turning red with the unknown fear as how she will react after hearing all these.

I reached my destination at about forty-five minutes past eleven. Dipankar was waiting for me at the bus stand with two bi-cycles.

He was curious to know as what happened --- “What happened, why you have called Suchismita at this point of time?”

I kept quiet and said --- “I have some problem and I had to discuss with Paree and that was very urgent for me.”

We reached Dipankar’s house, Paree and Kalyani, both were waiting anxiously at the gate.

Paree came running towards me as soon as she saw me.

In the low light of the verandah I saw her eyes were big, full of anxiety and bit haze in some unknown anticipation.

She clutched my collar and looked at my face with partially deluged eyes --- “What happened to ChotoMa?”

I looked deeply into her eyes and murmured in my head “WHO ARE YOU?”

I mumbled a bit --- “Your ChotoMa and Babu, both are fine alright.”

A heavy breath exhaled from her chest after hearing that her ChotoMa and Babu were fine.

---“Then what happened to you? Have you fought with Debanjana or done something to her?”

I nodded my head sideways and meant that Debi was also fine.

Now she smiled at me --- “Don’t say you have killed someone or done robbery?”

She patted my cheeks and brought her face close to my ears, she observed that my eyes were hazy and my lips shaking. She still could not fathom the writhing pain in my heart.

She whispered ---“You missed me and that why you came here. Right?”

I took a deep breath and in a choking voice ---“I want to talk to you alone. Please.”

Upon hearing my choked voice, Paree sensed that the matter was not as small as she was thinking; a cyclone was devastating me within.

She looked at Kalyani, both Dipankar and Kalyani were looking at us. Kalyani said that we can go to their bedroom and spend the night and no one will disturb us. They will spend the night in some other room.

Paree tugged me into the room, I asked her to latch the door from inside.

She looked queerly at me and latched the door.

Paree stood in front of me with her arms crossed across her chest, her eyebrows squint, her eyes trying to fathom as what has happened.

I threw my college bag on the bed and then kneeled down in-front of her with my head down and my arms resting on my knees.

In a choked groaning voice --- “I have sinned Paree.”

______________________________





She yelled out in utter disbelief --- “WHAT?”

She groped the back of my head and clutched my hairs and pulled my face to look into my eyes.

---“What did you say?”

Big drops of tears rolled down my cheeks.

I mumbled ---“Arunima ……”

She could not believe her ears as what she heard; she eased her grip from my head and touched my chin with her fingers --- “What Arunima? What have you done with her?”

---“There was Maithili also …..”

She screamed in a deep tone and sat on the bed with a thud.

---“NO, Don’t tell me …… I can’t believe my ears.”

There was painstaking silence in the room. She was not sobbing but her eyes were deluged with anger and vengeful tears. Her ears and cheeks turned red and not due to blushes but due to rage.

---“What did you do with them?”

---“I didn’t do anything….”

She yelled at me ---“DON’T LIE… What you did with them? If you had done nothing then why have you come here in this dead night?”

She paused a little and continued in a choking voice --- “Why do I have to lose everything I love in every corner of my life? I lost my dad when I was one and half years. My sisters cursed me. My mom didn’t take care of me then. ChotoMa fed me her milk to raise me up but she was also taken away from my life. You came to my life after twenty-four years, filled the lonely heart with colours. Your birthday is just next week, I dreamt to give surprise you. Have my love lost its sheen? Not even for a single moment you thought about me?”

I could not say anything. I had no answer to her questions. It was I who took the steps towards the Medusa’s dark lair even after Debi warned me. The silence was killing both of us

In a shaky voice I asked her --- “Don’t you have faith in me?”

She said to me looking deep into my eyes ---“I have faith in you but Maithili is my sister-in-law.” There was confusion in her voice.

She came down from the bed and sat in front of me, kneeling in front of me.

She took my face between her palms---“My faith didn’t grow with time. I felt it deep in my heart on the first night we met, in the courtyard, during Subroto Da’s wedding. I don’t know how that came, but it just flooded my heart and all over me.”

I pointed to my college bag and said to her ---“There is a mini cassette recorder in my bag. Please play that, everything will be clear to you.”

Paree switched on the walkman, played the cassette again and again and again, listening to each and every sentence in utter confusion. She slapped her forehead and looked at me nodding her head sideways ---“I can’t believe my ears. What is this?”

---“This is the truth.”

We remained silent for a quiet long time, all the time Paree was nodding her head in utter dilemma.

---“How can Maithili do this with me? How can she do this with you even after being married? This is totally unbelievable.”

I smiled faintly at her, looking into her deluged disbelief gaze ---“She doesn’t know that my heart throbs only for you.”

At last Paree smiled sweetly at me ---“You are total insane and fool, but a very loving wise fool.”

And then suddenly she slapped softly on my cheek.

I screamed --- “Ouch!!!! Why you hit me now?” and took her palms into mine.

---“This was for the steps that you took towards the dungeon.”

She again freed her hand from my clutch and next slap was hard on my cheek. I looked queerly at her face.

She smiled in a bit veiled anger ---“Why you brought Debanjana’s name in this? You could have named anyone.”

I scratched my head and looked down ---“That just floated in my head at that time.”

She took my face between her palms and kissed my forehead --- “This is for the faith and love that has brought you back to me.”

I wrapped my arms around her waist and hid my face on her bosom and started to sob.

______________________________



I was basking in her warm hug that she has at last forgiven me. After few minutes she asked me---“You have not eaten anything since evening, you must be hungry.”

I looked up to her face --- “Who are you? Why do you love me so much?”

She took off my glasses and wiped the wet trail from the corner of my eyes ---“You are my baby prince. Let me get some food for you.”

“No I don’t want to take food now, just be with me” I hugged her deeply, rubbing my nose on her upper chest and neck. She gently caressed my back with her right hand and combed my hairs with other, same way a mother hugs her baby while she consoles her.

“If you don’t eat then I will thrash you black and blue. Give me Debi’s telephone number.” Saying so she freed herself from my deep embrace.

I asked her ---“Why?”

---“You are asking me why? Don’t you know what have you done? I have to call her and tell her what you did.”

I pleaded her ---“Please no, please don’t tell. She will definitely kill me.”

---“You are like that. She is the only person who can bring you in right path. Not I.”

Paree walked towards the door to unbolt the latch and walked out to bring some food for me.

It was about two o’clock in the night, after quiet sometime Paree entered the room with a plate in her hand and Kalyani behind her.

I was still on the floor, kneeled. On seeing Kalyani I bowed down my head “Now, I have fallen from the grace.”

Kalyani looked at me and laughed --- “What a person you are….”

Paree sat on the floor beside me. On the plate there was rice and dal (pulses) and some potato and brinjal curry. She mashed everything and started feeding me like a child.

Kalyani smiled at both of us ---“Suchismita, you pamper him like a baby.”

---“He is my baby prince and he pamper me like his doll.”

She finished feeding me and wiped my face with the corner of her saree.

Kalyani asked ---“What actually has happened?”

Paree asked me to go to bed and asked Kalyani to leave the room.

---“You don’t need to hear everything. Whatever you have heard is enough for you. Please don’t get me in wrong sense but I don’t want to humiliate him anymore. He is already very shaken and perturbed. Please let him take rest now.”

She smiled at both of us ---“Ok I leave you both. Don’t get naughty after all your crying and comfort.”

Paree pushed Kalyani out of the room and told her to wake us up at five-thirty in the morning. The first bus leaves the village at six and I should be on that bus before anyone of her house notices us together. Kalyani complied with her request and said that she will send her husband with me to the bus stand in the morning.

She switched on the night lamp and put off the tube and lied beside me. She faced towards me and took my head in her arms and hugged me deeply pulling my face over her bosom. I wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her cuddled her in a deep embrace.

She whispered in my ears ---“Tell me everything as what happened.”

I pushed my face up looked into her loving dark eyes; her forehead was touching my forehead.

I started my tale as how I was captivated by the venomous siren’s music. How I danced to the tunes of the Tuli. How I was enchanted in the captivating beauty of the siren and how I managed to slit the throat of Medusa and came out alive of the dark lair.

All the time Paree listened to my tale in intent curiosity and nodded her head in confusion.

At last there was a long silence between us. I hugged her very tightly in my arms to drown myself in her loving warmth.

Paree brought her nose over mine and rubbed my tip with hers and whispered ---“Abhimanyu of Mahabharata was truly brave and courageous as you are. He lost the battle because he didn’t have his Suchismita beside him. My prince has his Paree by his side, forever.”

Paree closed her eyes and took my lips in her. We locked ourselves in a deep kiss and soaking ourselves in loving warmth of our love, we spent the rest of the night just by looking into each other eyes and saying nothing.

East horizon was showing signs of faint twilight. Birds were chirping outside. A new dawn was approaching in our life, leaving a dark night behind. Somewhere some baul beggar was singing a morning raga. Faintly the music filled our room….

“Rai Jago Rai Jago …

Sukho Sari Bolee …

Rai Jago Rai Jago …

Sukho Sari Bolee …

Koto Nidraa Jaoo Go Radhyee

Shyam Nagorer Kolee …”

Chapter 1: My EVE step in my domain
-------------------------------------------


End of first week of April. Autumn breeze were flowing around. It was Dashami, of Basanti Puja. Mom was very happy since last few days. Dad was also happy. I suppressed all my commotions happening inside me, under a hard rock. Paree was finally going to step into my domain.

Last week, it was my birthday. I turned twenty three. I expected my birthday full of surprise but the surprise came in other way round as there was no surprise. Debi called at midnight to wish my birthday. Paree called at noon to wish me. Nothing much happened as I expected to happen.

College days have ended, whole of April was for the study period. From second week of May, the final exams were to get started. Debi ad Sharmi came to my house for studying. The closeness between me and Debi was mistaken by our parents. They had an impression that we were something more than friends and they were not opposed to that since our dads were colleagues. We were also very much enjoying their confusions and making merry of that. Debi with Arindam and myself with my love.

Before leaving, mom told me that Paree would be coming along with her so I should be at home and not go out with Debi and Sharmi after our study. After my mom left house, we all three laughed our hearts out.

Debi winked at me --- “So after a long time, kutaa (dog) is going to meet kutti (bitch).”

Debi called Paree as Suchi Di. The reason, Suchismita was four years senior than Debi. She first told me that how come she has to call my girlfriend as Didi. I told her that whatever she wants to address her she will be fine with that. But she insisted to respect her so she used to call her Suchi Di.

---“What are you going to do tonight?”

---“Nothing yaar, at least under one roof it is not possible to get cozy. That’s the main problem.”

“Yes that’s true” she smiled at me “also we don’t want our parents to get confused at this point of time.”

Sarmishta was as usual quiet and calm listening to our conversation and smiling, she does not talk much.

---“How is your nose now?”

After a long time she spoke of something --- “It is ok, but sometime there is pain on my forehead.”

Debi slapped on the back of her head and said ---“Until she does not mix up with friends she will have problems in her head.”

Sharmi was serious now --- “Will you two study something or I should go home.”

Debi squint her squint eyes ---“Aree baba, just joking. See Suchi di is going to come today and he is all excited.”

I asked Debi to stay that day and to meet Paree. But Debi told me that she doesn’t want to meet Paree at house, she wants to meet her somewhere outside.

We didn’t study actually we spend our time in gossiping and discussing many things other than physics.

The time arrived, I was watching TV in the drawing room, actually not watching but anxiously waiting for Paree.

The door bell ranged, I ran downstairs to open the door and found that Paree and Mom has arrived.

Paree gently beamed a courteous smile at me in front of mom and asked me --- “How you are and how are your studies going on?”

I smiled back at her and nodded my head that all was going fine and in my mind I was saying “Baby I was waiting for your arrival anxiously.” I looked at her as she climbed the stairs behind mom.

Paree was wearing her as usual favourite dress, saree. She was in a beautiful light blue coloured chiffon saree, wrapped around her beautiful frame. Her blouse was also of matching colour. Whole saree was embroidered with silvery and white colour threads. The glow of her skin was brighter than the lamp light of the staircase. The blouse of short sleeved revealed her full arms. I was about to touch her hand from behind, she sensed that as she was looking at me over her shoulders and smiling naughtily at me with her squint eyes. A dozens of white and light blue and turquoise coloured bangles adorned her milky white thin wrist. The jingle sounds were making my heart to leap as she walked up. With each step she took forward, her creamy white ankles were exposed to my view. To my most amazement I observed that she had a thin silver anklet which was jingling more than that of her bangles. The tinker sounds made me mad, as when I would be able to kiss those ankles and milky white calves again. She was wearing the same heavy gold necklace that her ChotoMa presented to her. Her earlobes were adorned with long dangling earrings, which swayed with each glance she had over her shoulders towards me. I was getting ecstatic with all her sensuous beauty.

______________________________





I felt that she might not have dressed so beautifully before. I was totally bewitched by her charms. Her eyes were glistening with smile. Her sumptuous bottoms covered under the folds of saree, swayed beautifully in-front of my eyes. I felt to caress those soft mounds then and there. Just before entering the drawing room, she sensed my eyes were drinking her elegant charms like a skylark. She smiled with her squint eyes and bit her lower lips, all those actions happened behind mom.

I carried her luggage to her room. She came inside the room behind me and looked at me. Upon entering the room she looked at me with her ever smiling sweet eyes and outstretched her arms. I was about to prowl upon her and hug her deeply in my arms just then mom called up --- “Abhi, can you go to market to bring some milk. Paree has to drink after dinner.”

I looked at her, “What a bad timing” she smiled at me and nodded her head.

I came near her and teased her by saying that ---“Why do we want milk when you have …..?”

She blushed red, her cheeks turned crimson. I love the sight whenever she blushes. She slapped on my arm playfully ---“Just don’t be naughty now. Obey ChotoMa’s order or I will scream that you are teasing me.”

In a teasing voice --- “What are you going to tell her?”

She got furious now ---“Just go away, I need to change and fresh up myself.”

---“Getting ready for me, honey?”

She screamed out --- “ChotoMa, see Abhi is not going to market.” She grinned at me as if saying “Tit for tat”

Mom yelled at me ---“What are you doing? Leave her alone and go to market.”

I walked out; I was in the seventh heaven floating on the clouds.

I came home running from the market. Paree has changed her dress already. She wore a new sleeveless chiffon night gown which mom bought for her. It was baby pink in colour, beautifully matching with her creamy glowing skin. She was looking very fresh and washing herself. I looked at her while she was working in the kitchen along with mom preparing tea. I drank her beauty while standing at the door of the kitchen. The night gown was not a body hugging one but her curves and contours was partially veiled. Her soft bulges of bosoms and her curves of waist and wide hip was visible. She still had her earrings attached to her cream earlobes. She looked at me over her shoulder as if asking me as what I was looking at. I blushed as I got caught ogling at her sensuous beauty.

Mom looked at me ---“Why don’t you go to your room and study? Your exams are just round the corner. Paree will serve you the tea. If you have to chat you can do at dinner table.”

I was bit disheartened on hearing my mom’s order. Paree looked at my face and felt that pain.

She said ---“You go to your room I am just coming with your tea.”

I was adamant that I want tea before I go to my room.

Mom asked me to wait in the drawing room. I was unable to concentrate running TV anxiously waiting for the tea to arrive, carried by my heartthrob.

Paree entered with my tea and kept on the centre table in front of me. As she bent forward to keep the cup on the centre table, I looked at the bulge of her upper chest over the deep gorgeous cleavage and then looked at her face. She sensed as what I was looking and nodded her head in distrust.

I took a sip and screamed at her --- “There is no sugar in the tea. It is not sweet.”

Mom told me from the kitchen that she has added sugar to the tea.

Paree looked at me --- “Don’t try to be smart, I myself have added sugar to your tea.”

“Why don’t you take a sip to taste this” I forwarded the cup to her. She understood me as what I did mean to say and nodded her head with all her naughty smile smeared on her sweet thin lips.

She sipped the tea and gave back the cup to me --- “Now it is sweet. Just go to your room and study now.”

There was a naughty twinkle in her eyes as she went away leaving me enchanted in that room.

I was not able to concentrate on my book and whole two hours I was just lost in the thought of Paree, walking just below the floor. Her locks, dancing and caressing her rosy cheek instead of my fingers. I was unable to kiss those sweet lips and drink the nectar to my heart’s content. I felt a warm gush running all over my body just by the mere thought that Paree was so near to me but I was unable to hold her in my arms and smell her sweet nauseous fragrance from her long black hairs and her serpentine frame.

The dinner was a quiet one, none of us talked much as my parents were present. We both were suppressing our mutual attraction, buried deep in some remote corner of our heart. I could fathom the strong beckon whenever she looked at me while passing the food at the dining table.

We both knew that we have to act and take our steps very cautiously so as not to raise a single eyebrow towards us. We both knew that my parents were basking in the thought that I was having a relation with Debi. We both knew that we had to shield ourselves behind that confusion before our truth finally reveals and that also at a proper time.


After dinner I retired to my room in second floor. I changed to shorts and nothing else as it was April and the summer was nearing in Kolkata. I had to study and finish some more chapters of optics before I go to sleep. I was not much able to concentrate in my studies but I had to. Gradually I was feeling heavy headed as the hours passed. It was dark outside. One by one the lights of the nearby houses were getting switched off. It was about thirty minutes past twelve. The crescent of the moon was shining under the dark black sky, the twinkles of the stars seemed as my Paree was smiling at me from the sky. I looked to the crescent imagining the face of Paree and lost myself in her thought. I also switched off the tube light and put on the reading lamp. The whole room glowed in soft yellow light, giving a dreamy ambience to my thoughts.

My chains of thoughts were sweetly broken when I felt two soft arms around my neck coming from behind and rested over my bare chest. Her soft thin fingers, danced on my chest sending sweet sensation all over. My nostrils and brain got filled up with sweet fragrance of jasmine. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes to devour all the sweet pleasure of her feathery touch on my skin. She rubbed her cheeks on my head over my disheveled hairs. Her cheeks felt like butter melting down on my head. Her warm soft bosoms pressed softly on my nape. Bare warm skin of her chest and soft bulge felt awesome on my nape. Each and every vein under my skin was pumping blood all over my body like a fire engine trying to douse the ignition. I could feel her bosoms having goose bumps all over her chest as my nape pressing on her bare upper bust. She felt the warmth of my skin on hers. I took her hand in mine and gently pressed her palms in my grip. We both soaked ourselves in the halo of sweet love, enjoying the sweet warmth of our gentle hug. We remained in our sweet embrace for quite some time. Silence can be sweet sometime.

She whimpered out---“I missed you a lot.”

I slowly turned towards her on my swivel chair, parted my legs and put my arms around her narrow round waist. Her arms came up around my shoulders, left arm around my neck and right one clutch my hairs and pulled my face near her soft bosom. I pulled her more on me; her soft round tummy flattened on my chest and pressed my chin between her warm sumptuous bosoms. I looked up into her deep inviting eyes, hugged her with all my strength and crushed her waist and rubbed her curvaceous back. The lone strand of lock swayed over her right cheek, two small dimples on her cheek made the smile beautiful. Her long hairs were untied and caressed on the back of my palm and was all over her back. Her lips were half opened and her line of pearls played hide and seek behind those rosy lips. I could feel her warm breath flowing all over my face. Her soft tummy was moving timidly on my chest sending soft spasms on my body.

I whispered ---“You will make me mad, every time you hug me like this.”

She cooed down --- “Ratan Ee Ratan Chene, Suoree Chene Kachu (A jeweler only knows the true value of a stone and a swine knows about boris).” And laughed at me.

---“So you mean that I am a jeweler”

---“No, you are my sweet little piglet.”

---“And that makes you soft and tender as Boris.”

We both laughed on that joke.

She looked at my glasses and asked ---“What happened to your glasses? This is a new one I see.”

I rubbed my chin on her cleavage, friction ignited warmth on her soft skin.

---“It was due to you, I had to change my glasses.”

---“Why? What have I done?”

---“You called Debi that night, remember and next day I had my old specs on the floor.”

She got anxious to know as what happened that day in college and how I had my new glasses.

---“What happened that day?”

---“That’s a long story.”

---“I want to hear that.”

---“Ok, as I arrived that day to college, Debi was all quiet. She did not spoke a single word with me till last period. I was bit disheartened by her nature. From last few days she was not talking to me properly.

______________________________





So I asked Sarmishta as what has happened to Debi as why she was not talking to me. Sharmi nodded her head and said to me that she doesn’t know as what has happened.

The last period was over.

Sharmi asked me to be seated. Debi was looking at me with fire in her eyes. All the students left the class and we were only three persons left in the class.

Debi looked at me and stood up and walked towards me. She asked Sarmishta to latch the door from inside. Sharmi looked queerly at Debi, she shouted to her to latch the door.

She was standing like an angry wounded lioness looking at her timid prey. Without saying any word she pasted a hard slap on my right cheek. My spectacles flew from my nose and hit the wall and broke into pieces. My cheek was burning; I rubbed my cheek in utter disbelief that she could slap me like that.

Then her lips quivered, eyes glistened a bit and screamed at me “How can you break your promise that you made for Suchi Di. You rascal; bloody swine; dark devil with lewd mind set. I protected you from that bitch (Anusuya) hovering around you for two years and you fall for other two bitch. Do you have a heart thumping inside your chest or you just want to bed with any bitch you like? All males have their brains in their loins, I thought you are different but at last you also proved me wrong.”

Sharmi was dumbfounded by hearing all those words. I had no words or excuse to say anything.

She continued in her deep voice “You never thought of Suchi Di, what she would feel if her heart breaks.”

I was looking to the ground and pleading to Mother Earth to open up so that SHE can pull me inside her lap forever. My eyes were already deluged, the corner of my eyes got flooded.

Debi then put her fingers under my chin and pushed my face up. Her anger has subsided a bit. I could not look into her eyes. She asked me to look at her.

“You are a devil all over but a faithful devil at last. That’s the reason I can’t get angry upon you now. Come with me, your glass has broken. Let that get mended from Lalbazar. I know that you don’t have any money also, most of your pocket money you have already spend on those bitches.”

I had to obey her, and thus how I got my new glasses.”

Paree gobbled the whole matter with big eyes. A deep breath exhaled out of my chest. We both kept quiet for some time.

After some time she said --- “I want to meet Debanjana. How and when can I meet her?”

I said to her “Debi was at my house all the day but she said that she would like to meet you somewhere outside to make the congregate a memorable one.”

She nodded her head, her gold ear rings twinkled in the low yellow light of the reading lamp.

---“What is she planning?”

“I don’t know baby” I rubbed my face on her supple bosom.

I squeezed my lips to form a small “O” and blew cold air on narrow fissure between her supple bosoms. The cold sensation made her shiver in my tight embrace. Paree stooped down and touched my forehead with hers and cooed --- “Are you going to keep me standing whole night?”

I whispered --- “No honey, how can I keep you standing all night? Sit down wherever you want to.”

---“But if you don’t loosen your embrace then how come I sit on the bed and talk to you?”

---“Why do you want to sit on the bed, just sit on my lap”

“And if I sit on your lap then what will happen to me?” There was a teasing smile on her lips.

---“What will happen, nothing will happen. Simple.”

---“Do you want me to believe you?”

---“If you don’t believe then I can’t do anything.”

I loosened my arms around her fluid torso. She moved a little and then sat across my lap with her legs across my right and her back on my left. I put my left arm behind her back to support her weight and put my right one on her narrow waist. Her supple orbital soft bottoms nested over my bare thighs sending sweet warm sensation all over. She put her right arm around my neck and her left one on my right shoulder to sit comfortably on my thighs. My left hand fingers were touching the bulge of soft right bosom, kneading that soft mound with my finger tips. She looked deep into my eyes; her nose tip was already red.

I brought my lips near hers sweet red lips, she closed her eyes and opened those two rosy petals partially seeking for a deep kiss from me. I gently took her upper lip between mine and sucked gently at first.

______________________________


Her lips sucked my lower one gently. With my right arm I pulled her waist more into me, her bosoms rubbed gently on my bare chest. Sparks of passion flew all over. Her left grip on my right shoulder turned hard. Her left hand pulled my face more on her lips and she turned her face sideways to cross her mouth over my face. Slowly she sucked the air out of my mouth, my tongue went dry at first and to compensate that dryness I sneaked out my tongue to rub the tip on her upper teeth line. She froze in my arms and the kiss lingered for some time. My breaths grew deeper, she pushed my tongue out of her honey soaked mouth with her tongue and the tip of her tongue touched the upper part of my mouth. I grabbed her waist and pasted her upper torso on my chest. Her warm bosoms melted like fresh cheese on my muscular chest. Soft plump buttery mounds got flattened as she pushed her bust more over mine. With the flat of my right palm I touched the upper portion of her tummy just beneath the region of her bust. She sensed my finger approaching her peaks of sensuality. She dug her finger nails of her left hand on my right shoulder. A sweet pain aroused as the skin got scratched. Our lips then moved frantically over each other trying to win the battle as who kisses the best and play with lips better than the other. Neither Paree was looking forward to break the blissful passionate kiss nor was I willing to let her lips get free.

Finally after a long time she opened her eyes and slowly freed her lips from the clutch of mine. Both of us were panting heavily like the woven of blacksmith. My ears and head was hot as amber. Her face and cheeks were burning with desire. She looked into my eyes with her partially opened eyes.

I somehow tried to catch my breath and whisper out ---“I missed you a lot, Paree.”

---“Me too.”

---“Can you feel the fire burning deep inside me?”

She nodded her head lightly to say that she could feel my burning fire sending hot sparks all over her bottoms.

I brought my right arm under her knees and pulled her on my lap and stood from the chair. She hid her face on the lap of my left shoulder, as I carried her to the bed and gently placed her on the mattress. Her fingers lingered on my chest and shoulder as her embrace loosened around my upper torso. None of us were saying anything to each other. There was a telepathic conversation going on between two lovelorn birds caught in a passionate storm.

I placed both my hand on either side of her body and stooped down over her face to plant another smooch on her amorous pouting lips. This time she teased me and rolled over to the other side of the bed and lied on her tummy and hugged the pillow to her bosom. Hundreds of strands of hairs covered her beautiful face partially. She teased me with a naughty smile.

---“I knew that you would be doing this to me.” Paree was breathing heavily.

Her broad shoulder tapered down to her narrow waist to form a sine curve and then widening to her hip and then her round fleshy bottoms curved out. A perfect sine curve cut out of the oscilloscope of electronics practical class.

I got up on the bed and crawled to her on my fours. She stretched out her left hand and pushed my face. All her fingers covered my whole face and I licked her palm.

She moaned out ---“Abhi, please don’t ignite the fire more into my heart.”

I whimpered ---“Why? I was bereft of your touch for three long months. The dams within me are bursting out.”

---“I sensed that honey. But ….”

---“What but, Paree? You kept me waiting for three long months and now we meet and you are teasing me.”

“You have to wait more. I don’t want to divert your attention from your studies” she sounded bit different this time.

I tried to press my face on her back, on her spine. She playfully rolled over again and got down from the bed. I fell on the bed on my stomach with a thud. Paree giggled at me leaving me high and dry. She came near the side of the bed and wagged her index and middle finger in front of my nose and said in a teasing voice ---“You can’t touch me honey, till your exams are over. All your dreams will be fulfilled only after then.”

---“Saint Vishwamitra’s meditation was broken by Menaka, then how come I can concentrate on my studies.”

She rubbed her nose over mine and said ---“Mother Earth will win now against Menaka.” Sweetly kissed my cheeks and went away leaving me in a beautiful trance.

Chapter 2: Celeste and Angel convene

---------------------------------------------


Paree stepped in to my domain and devastated me with her charms and sweet nature; I was having sleepless night unable to concentrate on my studies. She continued with her mockery, unwilling to douse the fire burning inside me. Seldom I got few pecks and kiss on my cheeks and ruffles of her soft thin fingers on my head and nothing more. She was adamant on her words, that the dreams of mine will only get fulfilled after my exams are over.

Two days passed, Debi called one fine morning. I was reading newspaper in the drawing room. Mom was getting ready for her college. Paree answered the phone. Whatever they spoke, I could hear only giggles and petty words and nothing else. Mom looked at Paree and bid her goodbye.

I was about to go to my room for studies. Paree entered the drawing room; she has already taken her bath as usual and has offered Puja also. I looked at her divine face. Few beads of water, dropped from her wet strand of lock, swaying on her right cheek created a halo of purity all round her sweet smiling face. She wore a light yellow coloured cotton saree with wide red border. There were small flowers all over the yellow saree. The way she wore the saree was of typical old Bengali style, covering all her hidden beauty in whole. No one could imagine what lies beneath those folds of saree. Her blouse was of matching red colour, half sleeved. She stood at the door way, partially behind the curtain and looked lovingly at me. Her creamy white skin glowing in the morning sun rays. She had her wet locks tied in a loose bun dangling softly on her nape. Her earlobes were adorned with gold earrings studded with small ruby. Her lips were pink and shining. On both wrists she was wearing few thin gold bangles. She I asked her as why she was smiling like that to me.

---“Debanjana called just now.”

---“I know, they way you were speaking on the phone I easily understood that on the other end it was her.”

---“She wants to meet with us today.”

---“Where?”

---“She only told me to bring you at Nagerbazar. Then she will take us somewhere.”

---“Let me call her and ask where she is going to meet.”

---“No, you will not call her. She told me to ask you to take me with you to the designated place she has said.”

---“Has she told you where she is going to take us?”

Paree giggled at me ---“Don’t you have faith on such a beautiful friend of yours?” Two rows of white pearls shined in the soft morning sunrays, peeked behind her partially rosy lips. She was talking to me, all the time standing at the door partially behind the curtain.

I asked her ---“Why are you not coming out behind the curtain?”

“Who knows about your evil intention?” She smiled naughtily at me. “If you prowl upon me in this beautiful morning, then?”

I slapped my forehead ---“You naughty girl.” And stood from the couch to really prowl on my beauty.

She ran to her room and closed the door partially and peeked from the slit of the door.

---“You go and take your bath and dress up. She told me that she would be waiting for us by ten o’clock.”

I asked her as what was she going to wear. She said as usual she will wear saree.

I took bath and changed my dress to a pair of white trousers and a long cream coloured Punjabi so as to match with my EVE’s dressing sense as she was going to wear saree. On beholding her dressing sense, no one would be able to tell that she was from a tiny town away from Kolkata.

Paree wore a cream coloured cotton saree with dark green border. Very tiny flowers were all over the upper end of the saree that dbangd from her waist to her shoulder, covering her belly and bosoms. Short sleeved dark green blouse, same colour as the border of the saree. There was no makeup on her face, only a lip-gloss one her lips to keep the natural pinkish tint on her lips. A small green dot graced her forehead between those pair of whip like dark eyebrows. She put a faint kajal under her eyes to beautify her dark big eyes more. A very thin gold chain bedecked her creamy white slender neck and a small rhombus shaped gold pendant graced below the curve of her neck at the centre of her upper chest. The thin strand of lock that used to caress her right cheek was tucked behind her right ear. Her long black hairs, tied in a soft casual bun dangling just below her nape. Two gold earrings of few centimeters in length glamorized her earlobes. There was a tint of pink blush on her cheeks. Few thin gold bangles braced her thin right wrist and a golden titan wrist watch on her left one. She looked like a pure gold effigy of Lakshmi. I looked at my Paree with adorable eyes. I was literally speechless.

______________________________


This beauty didn’t smite me with sensuousness but filled my heart with divinity. I came near to her and held her face between my palms and looked into her eyes with pure esteem and gently kissed her forehead.

She spoke softly ---“Shall we go now?”

I bowed and stretched my right hand to show her the way ---“Always after you, dear.”

We boarded a taxi to reach the designated place as Debi told us to, Nagerbazar. At the bus stand another divine surprise was waiting for me.

For the first time in two years I saw Debi in a saree. Her small frame very neatly covered under the folds of a light green cotton saree with dark green border. A pair of gold rimmed glass on her small nose. She usually doesn’t wear makeup so that day was nothing unusual, only special was she was in a saree. I looked at Paree as she looked at Debi. Sharmi as usual was in a casual salwar. Debi’s face was beaming with a smile and she ran towards Paree upon seeing her from a distance. Even if they had not met each other, both the ladies sensed their bond.

I stood few paces behind as Paree took Debi in her embrace and kissed her forehead as if she was her elder sister meeting after a long, long time. I looked two beautiful ladies, one my soul and the other my eye. I took a deep breath and looked at Sharmi and asked her that where we are going. She pointed to Debi and told me ask her.

Debi danced her eyebrows ---“I am really jealous of you. If I was born as a boy I would have courted Suchi Di.”

It was time for Paree to blush now. I enjoyed her sweet blush as Paree slapped softly on Debi’s cheek.

I asked Debi as where we were going. Her answer was unprecedented.

---“We are going to Dakhinehwar Kali Temple.”

“No way….” I yelled out.

“If you don’t want to go then you can stay at your home, but we ladies are going” she looked at Paree and tugged her hand and started walking.

Sharmi was always smiling at me. I just nodded my head as I walked with Sharmi behind those two ladies.

We took a taxi to go to Dakhinehwar from Nagerbazar. I was pushed to the front seat and the ladies took the back one. Debi was sitting in the middle of Paree and Sarmishta.

Both, Debi and Paree got very friendlier with each passing minute. Sarmishta as usual timid person, talks less but that day I found her to be actively participating in their conversation.

Debi asked Paree --- “How the hell you fell for this rascal?”

Paree smiled at me as our eyes met through the reflection of the rearview mirror.

---“It just happened inside me, when we met actually. I just felt that I was born only for him.”

I folded my arms and rested those over my head and bend my neck back to rest my head on the back rest of my seat. A soft slap landed on the back of my head.

Debi giggled ---“So romantic. He has the courage to take you under his wings and enjoy a vacation in the remote hills. No one can even think of such trip in such a place. Most of the people have not even heard of that place. How come you went with this idiot?”

Paree just smiled at her and said ---“Doesn’t Arindam takes you out anywhere?”

---“Arindam is bit timid in nature not so bold and outrageous like Abhimanyu. He is dumb head so he jumps in any situation to fight for. How do you handle him?”

Paree said nothing just smiled sweetly at Debi.

Debi continued ---“He came to college with a stone cold attitude. We all felt him as an alien and snobbish person. The day he saved my sister, the day real Bihari came out.”

Paree smiled at her ---“Why you are all praises for that idiot? Why don’t you tell about Arindam?”

They talked and talked and talked.

The time we reached temple premises it was thirty minutes past noon. The temple premises was not so crowded being a weekday. So it was not so much of congestions to get near the deity and offer puja.

I looked from behind as the three ladies engrossed in their puja.

I smiled in my mind that what a friend and a love I have got.

After they offered their puja; both the ladies again engrossed in their talks.

I walked with Sharmi little behind them. I asked her about her pain in her nose.

She said looking at me --- “It pains some times. My head becomes heavy. At time I feel that the pain will kill me.”

______________________________


I looked at her and asked her what doctors are saying. Debi looked back over her shoulder as what were we two doing.

---“Doctor’s have advised for rest and no exams. They have asked for a MRI of my brain also.”

I was astonished to hear all these ---“When all these happened?”

---“Two days before, I fell in the bathroom and again my nose started to bleed.”

---“Why haven’t you called me then?”

---“Just like that, we thought why to bother you when everyone was around me.”

I relieved a deep sigh. My heart writhed in some unknown pain. Sharmi looked down to the tiled floor of the huge courtyard.

I observed a drop of tear on her nose tip; I was surprised to see her in that state. I looked at Debi and Paree; both were far from us, talking with each other.

She sobbed out in a timid whisper --- “Promise me one thing and don’t tell Debi.”

I touched her shoulder ---“What happened?”

I sensed a writhing pain deep inside my chest.

“Doctors have said that the veins connecting my nose and eyes with the frontal lobe of my brain are getting worsened.” She paused a little and looked to my face with sniveled eyes and quivering voice she said to me “I have very little time in my hand, Abhi. Tell Arindam to look after Debi if something happens to me.”

I felt large wave just crashed on my chest and blinded the sunrays in front of my eyes. I looked for Paree and Debi, they were nowhere in the sight. I felt how helpless I was, standing in front of Sarmishta. I took her in my arms and pressed my lips on her head. She stood as a stone effigy with no movement, only her back shook like a twig attacked by a huge cyclone.

Suddenly I felt a soft touch on my shoulder, I looked back to find Paree and Debi standing behind us looking at us with inquisitive eyes.

Paree asked me ---“What happened, why are yours eyes filled up?”

I promised Sarmishta and I had to keep her promise so I had to lie --- “She just got emotional, remembering the first incident of her bleeding nose.”

Debi yelled at Sharmi --- “Oh! My God, just by remembering that incident you two have got emotional.” She could not fathom the pain that I was harboring inside me, but Paree sensed that I was telling lie, there was something more behind those sniveled eyes. I gestured Paree with my eyes to keep quiet.

Debi said --- “See those twelve Shiva Temples. On the left corner there is a tree. People say that your wishes will be granted if you tie a thread to that tree. Why don’t we ask for our wishes also?”

Paree enjoyed the puerile nature of Debi and adhered to her. We walked to that tree. All four of us tied thread.

For the first time I was going to ask something from God, so I paused a bit as I felt myself as a beggar standing in the God’s place.

While tying the thread to tree trunk I asked from God “I want to see Debanjana and Sarmishta dancing, surrounded by our family members during my wedding with Suchismita.” I didn’t know whether God has heard this or not but I wanted my wish to be fulfilled very badly.
