Chapter 92: Beautiful Small Box
While Pulkit and Sagar had their remaining lives to permanently take over their families' respective companies as first sons, but not necessarily as first child, Pulkit was the second child, he had an elder sister and two younger brothers while Sagar was the first child, he had a younger sister named Ganga.
As for Prakash, he had the same dream as Ajays to become a major general in the future but he saw how lonely Sonal felt because of the absence of her father and how she one day described to him how she and her mum coped any time her dad was not around. He didn't want that kind of life for his family.
For Sonal, Prakash had a change of dream to either become a soldier who worked in government houses, who can easily have access to their families or permanently join his dad and takeover Mehra Conglomerates or better still establish his own company, grow it and make it a household name in India.
He was yet to arrive at a final decision, but bottom line was that, he would be coming back home and whatever he chose, he was planning to start temporarily first with his dad, before he switches to his final decision in the long run. Yes, he mentioned this to his buddies, he changed his future dream for his love, his heartbeat, his new family and their happiness.
At the Arora Mansion
Zara walked into Sonal's room, she closed the door behind her, she had just come from Madam Shruti's room, she spent about 15 minutes explaining in detail the preparation plan for the woman's conference to her.
She looked inside the room, it wasn't the first time she had been in it, but the room looked different to her, she felt as if something was added to the room. She moved inside further and her eyes wandered around, then she noticed a small beautiful small box lying on Sonal's reading table.
Out of curiosity, she went closer, picked it up, broke the seal and opened it, as she looked at the content of the box, her heart began to tremble, her eyes became moist, suddenly hot tears began to run down her cheeks, she was sad and angry at the same time.
At this point, Sonal entered the room, she had gone downstairs to get plates for the herself and the girls to eat the take outs she had gotten when she was alone with Prakash at White Chillies some days ago. Jasmine was in the bathroom at this time.
She looked at Zara surprisingly, Sonal what is wrong? why are you crying? What is the matter? she asked and moved closer to Zara. She quickly put down the plates and was about to comfort Zara, but Zara pushed her away angrily. She staggered backwards but she did not fall down.
Jasmine was just coming out of the bathroom when she saw this scene, then she asked, girls what is going on? why the conflict? Zara looked at her and then her eyes moved to Sonal angrily. How could you Sonal? you knew very well how I feel about Pulkit, isn't Prakash enough for you? What are you doing with Pulkit's nudes?
I thought we were friends, but no, you a two timing bit*h. Sonal was confused, she looked at the box in Zara's hand ✋, which was now closed now. Before Pulkit and the guys went back to the military base, He had given it to her, together with a written note, Pulkit had kept the note underneath the nudes inside the beautiful box.
Pulkit had made Sonal promise him that she would not open the box but give it directly to Zara the day before she comes to the military base to cover the promotion ceremony on the military personnel. Sonal, an entertainment host at Mehra TV, was chosen to be the main reporter to cover the Military promotion ceremony at the military base.
Now Zara had misunderstood. Sonal never opened the beautiful box, the box and it's contents was meant for Zara's eyes only. Sonal then said, Zara no, you mistaken, I can explain. As she was about to explain, Zara cut her off and responded, just save it Sonal, I don't need your explanation.
Hold on wait a minute, I think you should hear her out first, you shouldn't jump into conclusions, Jasmine chipped in. I don't need to listen to your nonsense either Jasmine, you might be in cohoots with her, so you should mind your business and stay on your lane.
Immediately Zara said that, she went to her bag, picked up her phone and called her driver to come pick her up from the Arora Mansion. She took all her belongings from the room, and told Jasmine and Sonal not to touch them. They were not really heavy as she did not take much items.
As she was leaving the room, she told them, tell aunty I left early, and I don't ever want to speak to the two of you anymore, and stay away from my art studio aswell. You not friends but enemies who would not hesitate to stab me in the back.
Zara left Sonal's room with all her bags including the beautiful shinning little box that she had kept inside her bag by now. As she stepped outside Sonal's room, Sonal followed her and tried to convince her to stay for the night, so they both clear the misunderstanding. Zara did not listen to her but continued downstairs.
Jasmine quickly dressed up and came outside the room aswell. Amidst all of this, Madam Shruti heard the commotion outside and came out from her room. She looked at the scene and asked, Zara, Sonal, Jasmine, what is going on?
Oh mum it's nothing, Zara just got a call that a client wants to buy some art pieces as early as 5 am tomorrow, her house is closer to her studio than ours, Sonal lied and Jasmine said, aunty you really don't have to worry, we would handle it.
Handle what girls? Madam Shruti asked suspiciously. Aunty she meant, you shouldn't worry about me leaving here at this time of the night, I already called my driver to come pick me up, Zara replied. In that case, girls why don't you help Zara with her bags.
Ok mum we would do that, Sonal said then proceeded to carry one of Zara's bags, the other one was quickly carried by Jasmine while the hand bag was left with Zara. Madam Shruti was satisfied with this, so she said, have a good night girls, and Zara be safe, and do give me a call when you get home.
Alright aunty I will, Zara replied before Madam Shruti went back inside her room. After seeing this, Zara quickly collected her bags from Sonal and Jasmine then she snorted. She made sure she did it quitely inorder not to alert Madam Shruti.
I would take it from here, she angrily said to Sonal and Jasmine before she went downstairs to wait for her driver. She sat down on one of the Sofas. Sonal and Jasmine sat down too, then Sonal tried to explain to Zara that it was not what she thought that she should give her a chance to explain.
Zara did not listen, instead, she plugged her ears and listened to online stream on Bollywood tunes on Mehra Radio. On seeing that her attempts to explain to Zara was useless, Sonal went back upstairs, Jasmine looked at Zara for a bit, before she followed Sonal and headed upstairs aswell.
Back upstairs, Jasmine comforted Sonal that she should not be worried, that as long as she was innocent, the truth will come out someday. Thanks girl, you didn't even ask for details about what really happened before you had confidence in me that I am indeed innocent.
Girl I know you, you my best friend, you only have eyes for Prakash, and besides you really don't double date not to talk of dating friends, but what exactly happened between you and Zara? now I really want to know, Jasmine asked.
Well you know that little beautiful box that was on my table? that I stopped you from opening earlier when you entered the room? Sonal asked. Yeah I remember, Jasmine replied. Okay well it turned out that the contents were Pulkit's nudes, Sonal said. Jasmine looked at her surprisingly, then asked, what would you be doing with Pulkit's nudes by the way?
Well Pulkit gave them to me to give it to Zara the day before I head to the military base to anchor the military promotional ceremony, and he did beg me not to open the little box that it was confidential. Prakash is aware of this, but what I don't know is if he knew the contents, Sonal replied.
I didn't even know the contents until Zara's inquisitiveness opened it up, and I think that was rude, I mean the box belonged to her quite alright, but she had no idea, it was sealed and she still opened it, it could have been something confidential to me, Sonal lamented.
Well girl, thinking about it, it is rude but let's look at it this way, we all friends right? she might have thought so that since we all friends, you wouldn't mind, so she dared to open the little attractive box even though it was sealed, Jasmine replied.
Yeah true, we all friends, but am closer to you than to her, and even you wouldn't do that, like opening my sealed box, and even if you wanted to, you would still ask me about it like you did with the little beautiful box, Sonal replied. Yeah true Jasmine replied.
Anyway girl we would find a way to explain things to Zara, let's let the dust settle first, am famished, why don't we eat, you know how long I eyed that take out you got, courtesy of Prakash, Zara missed, but our gain, yeah, more for us, Jasmine continued.
Sonal smiled a bit and confirmed it, yeah more for us, then still in the room, she went to re microwave the takeouts which had cooled down, after which she brought it out, dished it on the plates that she had kept on her table, gave Jasmine one plate, then she took the other.
They prayed, ate, and started watching late night movies, just to compensate for the movies they missed at the cinema because they couldn't go. Zara's Art Studio had student rush, they had to stay over to help, hence cinema outing was ruled out.
By this time, Zara was home 🏘️ and furious with Pulkit, she was so angry with him that she threw the little beautiful box behind her wardrobe without looking at the full content, she then made a mental note not to look at it but throw the little box at Pulkit and question him when next they meet. After a while she cried herself to sleep.
At the Ritz Mansion....
Father Ritz asked mother Ritz to go check up on Nisha, because after she came back from the Uni on Friday, she had been running temperature, she even fainted few times, the family doctor was summoned, he only arrived at the deadly hour because he had to perform several C-section surgery at his private hospital earlier in the day which ended few hours ago.
He was very tired, but he had to come to the Ritz Mansion, after all he was being paid millions of rupees by father Ritz. When he was done checking up on Nisha in her room upstairs, he came downstairs, he then told father and mother Ritz not to worry, that it is normal to have such symptoms in the first few weeks in early pregnancy.
Pregnancy? Father Ritz asked the doctor in shock. Then he continued, no that can't be right, Yuvi would not do that. Mother Ritz then said, dear your boys have been checking up on Yuvi and you assured me he was a good boy, how did Nisha become pregnant then? she asked.
Honey I had stopped my boys from checking up on Yuvi, I took your advice to take it easy, I believed Nisha that he was a good boy, am going to kill that boy, father Ritz replied in anger. And Nisha, where is that silly girl, how can she be stupid to open her legs for a man who is not even her husband yet.
