章 34: Where is Mommy?
Ria washed the two glasses and turned around to find a man standing on the entrance of the bathroom while crossing his hands. She thought, 'When did he come?' He walked in towards her, she instinctively took a step back. Ren smirked looking at her reaction.
She was the same girl who gave him her whole attention without even blinking, who would give him a kiss more than she talks, who would tell him 'love u' frequently, who would give him anything he asked. He missed her so badly, Ren asked in a pleading tone, "Can't we go back to how we used to be?"
Ria was stunned, she never expected this. Him to ask her in this kind of tone! He does it very very rare! Ria didn't say anything. Ren walked to her, picked the glasses from her hand and placed it safely on the hand wash. Ren thought, 'Chances of my head bleeding, reduced'.
Ren pulled her towards him then said looking at her eyes, "You are my life, Anna. You are my heartbeat, my goddess and the very reason for my existence. However I may scold you or shout at you, I will come back to you right? You are the only one I can come back to! Forgive me, Ria. Accept me.
You, Varun, Diya and me, we can be one whole family". Tears escaped from Ria's eyes like a full dam was opened. She cupped his face, tiptoed and kissed his lips, a light one. She looked into his eyes while tears descended from hers. Ren leaned forward to her face, she moved her face back. She looked at him with atmost pain.
She hugged him tightly rubbing her face in his nape and then let go of him. She took the glasses and went outside the door. Ren was stupified by her actions. He didn't know how to react or how to take her actions as. He stood there for few minutes, then rushed of the bathroom.
He couldn't find her in the lounge, Varun and Diya was still there in the bed. Ren asked them, "Where is Mommy?" Both of them looked up and Varun said, "Mama walked out of the room." Ren opened his mouth to ask, 'Did she cry?' but he swallowed the words. Then he rushed out of the room.
....
When Ria came out, she saw her kids doing their work. She immediately rushed towards the door as she was crying. She entered one of the conference room locked the room and cried out while holding her mouth with hands. She wanted to accept him so desperately.
Ria mumbled, "I want to be with you Ren, again. But this is not the time, yet. I'm afraid, terribly afraid. If I let you in again, you may leave me again. You are only coming back to me, because I have your kids. I can't play this love-hate game again. I seriously Can't!"
This was her first time hearing these kind of words from his mouth after all. After 10 minutes, she picked up the landline in the conference room and pressed a random number. Someone picked up the call, "Hello sir, What can we do for you?" Ria asked in a hoarse voice, "Can you connect my line to Miss Peggy?"
Then woman on the other end, looked at the number once again. It was from one of the conference rooms then she thought for few seconds and she said, "Can you hold on for a minute mam?" Ria replied, "Okay".
After 3 minutes, a voice was heard from the other end, "Mam?... Where are you? The whole office is looking for you!" Ria told her, "Postpone the audition for 15 minutes. Come to the conference room 3 with a make up bag and don't tell anyone, anything else." Then Ria hung up the phone next second.
In 5 minutes, a knock was heard on the door. Ria opened it, Peggy came with a makeup bag. She saw her red nose, red cheeks and red swelled eyes. But she didn't ask anything. She gave her the make up bag and stood silent next to the door.
....
'Where is she? Car is still in the parking lot. She didn't leave the office. She is nowhere to be seen in the entire office. She didn't take the lift, there is no camera in the staircase but I checked it out. She is not in the audition room too. It has just been 10 minutes, I am already going crazy', Ren's mind was messy.
Ren's phone rang, it was Darren. He thought, 'If only this idiot didn't walk in with Varun, I might have had another kid.' Ren picked the call and asked in a very cold tone possible, "What?" There was a silence on other end for few seconds then a voice came over, "Sister-in-law.... postponed the meeting for.... 15 minutes".
Ren's eyes grew wide and he asked, "Where is she?" Darren's shaking voice was heard, "We don't know!" Ren shouted, "Then, why the hell are you talking to me?" Darren gulped his saliva and said, "She will come to the audition in 15 minutes you can find her there."
Ren said immediately, "Cancel the audition, no one should be there when she comes and no should come in untill I say so. Take care of Varun and Diya, switch off the cctv in that room. It should be done before I reach the room".
Darren said with fear, "But..." Ren interrupted, "Just because you are my brother, it doesn't mean I won't fire you!" Darren gulped his words down this time and said, "Roger!" Then Ren hung up on the phone.
.....
Ria came with Peggy to the audition room in the building next to Main building, which was one of the training room for artists. Darren was waiting for her at the door of the room and he smiled immediately as soon as he saw her.
Ria did her make up, but the red strains in her face was still visible. Her eyes was swelled up. Darren understood somewhat and said, "Sister-in-law, everything is ready. I prepared everything myself". Ria didn't mind and walked in the door.
When she entered the room, it was empty and full of mirrors on four sides with air conditioners working. Actually not empty, Ren who was wearing his white shirt and blue trousers was sitting on the sofa, looking at her with murderous intent.
