RagNa Love Stories: RagNa SS: Anyone can fall in love anytime Chapter 43

"Ok OK Kalpana, I will tell mom that it's enough for today. You can dance on whatever song you want and I will convince my mom. Don't worry." Sunaina whispers in Kalpana's ear.

Kalpana hugs Sunaina from behind and rushes out hiding from Sunaina's mom's eyes.

Kalpana walks towards her room and someone grabs her hand and pulls her inside the room. The room is dark and hence Kalpana is able to see the person as well. She starts screaming when the person puts a hand on her mouth.

"Shushhhh! It's me Raghav."

"What the? Why did you pull me in?"

"Wait a second. You will get to know it soon."

"But....what?"

"Wait....."

After few moments the candles are lit and Kalpana notices a table with few bowls and plates on it. There was a bowl with rose petals floating in the water and a candle right in the center of the bowl. There were two chairs as well.

Raghav hugs Kalpana from behind and whispers in her ear "So what are you waiting for? Let's have candle day lunch now?"

Kalpana keeps staring at the table and says in disbelief "Candle day lunch? Are you serious?"

Raghav says "Of course I am....Umm...I know that you are surprised because nobody has candle day lunch." He puts his hands on her shoulders and grabs her near him saying "But if a husband is not allowed to meet his wife for a long time, such lunches, dinners and even breakfast needs to be planned this way only. BTW, how did you like my decoration?"

Kalpana looks at the table again and says "Hmmm... Nice. But why did you close the curtains?"

"To give it a feeling of a candle night dinner, sweetheart. Now please let's have lunch fast as I am hungry for hours now." Raghav says while holding Kalpana closer.

"Not now. I'm so tired dancing that my hunger has vanished completely. I need to rest now."

"Don't worry. I'll give you a nice massage after food but now let's eat else ..."

"Else what?"

"Else , I will have to make you my lunch for today."

Kalpana raises her eyebrows saying "Me and your lunch? You won't be able to digest me. I'm irresistible." She winks at him and he puts his nose on hers saying "One minute more and I'll gulp you down."

She hits him on his chest saying "Naughty. But I am too tired to eat. You need to feed me."

"Sure."

Kalpana sits in Raghav's lap and he feeds her with a piece of chapati, dipped in chicken curry.

She bites his fingers and he screams with pain "Kalpi, I am feeding you with the chapati and my fingers are not included in it."

She starts laughing and gives him a kiss on his cheeks saying "Sorry. I thought that I need to eat your fingers too."

"Very funny." He answers.

Raghav wipes the curry over Kalpana's lips and gives her a peck on her lips. Kalpana blushes and Raghav goes to the washroom. She rests on the bed and waits for Raghav to come out.

After few moments, he comes out and finds her with a bottle of oil and she was lying down, putting two pillows under her back and resting her head on the bed.

"Hmmm...You're looking so beautiful Kalpana. But why are you holding the oil bottle in your hand?"

"For you my dear Raghav. You forgot the massage you were going to give me on my legs?"

Raghav starts laughing and says in his mind "Oh no. She remembers it? I was just joking." "Yeah, I am coming baby."

Kalpana puts her leg forward and says "Start darling."

She points to her feet and Raghav smiles, cursing himself in his mind, takes the bottle of oil and applies it on her feet. He massages her toes and Kalpana rests her elbow on her knee and says "Ammm....Apply more force Raghav."

Raghav gives a fake smile saying "Am doing sweetheart."

"Do faster Raghav. My feet are paining a lot. Go a little up. Yes, yes, that bone is paining. Ahh, now I am getting a bit of relief but you continue."

Raghav looks at the watch. 25 minutes had passed by and Raghav's hands were paining.

"Raghav, now stop pressing my feet."

Raghav who has been pressing her legs for almost 35 minutes smiles and says "Really? OK then I'll let's go to sleep for sometime." He says in his mind "Thank God my work is over."

"Where are you going? Here press my hands. They are paining a lot." She extends her hands and asks him to massage her hands.

Raghav looks helplessly at her hand and he starts crying in his mind. "Raghav, you're gone today." "But you were dancing with your legs?"

Kalpana looks at Raghav and says "Yea so? You mean to say that my hands cannot pain? I was learning those bharat natyam steps with my fingers as well and they are paining so much. But let it be if you don't want to help me. Sheela aunty was so right that men change after getting married. You also changed Raghav. Don't help your wife. Let my hands, legs, back, head everything pain but you go, go to sleep." Kalpana starts crying and tries to get up from the bed.

"No no no....Why are saying this? I am there and I will massage your hands." Raghav says

Raghav thinks: She has done masters' in Emotional blackmail

"And what about my back and head?" Kalpana asks.

"This Raghav is at your service mam. 24/7." Raghav says with a fake smile.

"Hmmm...Good."

3 hours pass by and Raghav massages Kalpana's legs, hands, back and head and she falls asleep. "Huh, thank God that she finally is asleep."

Raghav lies down on the bed near Kalpana and says to himself "Now my hands, legs, back and head are paining. Who will help me? Nobody Raghav, you go to sleep only."

The next day, Sunaina's and Sammy's parents get ready for the haldi ceremony.

Sunaina dresses up and goes to Kalpi's room to check if she is ready for the ceremony. Kalpana wears a yellow colored salwar and says "Bhabi, this is fine na? In any case this kurti will get dirty due to the haldi (turmeric)."

"That's not called dirty Kalpi. Haldi is applied on the skin so that the bride looks beautiful for her wedding." Sunaina caresses Kalpi's face and says "In any case, my sister-in-law does not need haldi to look beautiful as she looks so pretty even now." Kalpana hugs her and says "Not sister-in-law. I am you baby sister."

Sunaina tightens the hug and says "Baby daughter. My Kalpu." She kisses her on the forehead and looks at her as tears form in her eyes. "I won't be able to see my Kalpi after 2 days. How will I live without you Kalpi? I can't imagine leaving you..."

Kalpana puts her fingers on her lips saying "Shushh! No bhabi. No crying today. It's a happy day for us both and especially for you. I don't want you to cry and go but I want to always see my bhabi smiling." Kalpana wraps her hands around Sunaina's waist and hugs her tightly.
