'Mum's First Lover', Harshavardhan C [spiritual books to read txt] 📗

Who is there?”

She looked at him seriously.

“If you feel it a secret you need not tell me mum”

“Shut up, I have certain obligations to fulfil as promised to your grandpa”

“Of course, I expected it”

“What?”

“Nothing, happy bon voyage mum”

“Thanks” She said seriously and left for airport.

He observed that she was carrying the ashes of his late dad Dr. Samarat secretly, almost thirteen years after his death, a strange but a great tradition.

Rohit found a wire on the table which read as “Dr. Lilly and Miss. Catherine died in a head on collision of car and truck at the California city, the USA; and the bodies are preserved in mortuary”

Rohit didn’t go to sleep. He understood that his father had first wife and a daughter, which fact was known to everybody except him. His mum was also secreting certain things from him.

Now he understood that she was going to the USA only to attend to their funeral and mix the ashes of his dad along with their ashes in high seas. He immediately rang up to Honey and informed her all about his parents.

She asked him to control himself; and she further promised him that she would be coming to him at once.

It was already 0700hrs. The housemaid served bed coffee to Miss. Jasmine.

Honey got up from her bed, finished her brushing, bathing, and dressed herself and got ready for attending her school.

“Good morning Honey” Mr. Anirudh forgot the last night’s episode; and as usual he greeted his daughter.

He was in uniform and came to dining table to have breakfast with Honey and Jasmine.

“Very good morning dad, I am ready” Honey greeted him and came to dining table.

“Please call Jasmine aunty also for breakfast baby. We all will finish breakfast and we will leave you at your school on our way to office”

Honey as per the instructions of her father knocked her door and as there was no response from Jasmine. She came back and informed him the same. He thought that she might be dressing.

“Shall we wait for her for some more time or finish our breakfast dear”

“We will wait for her dad as she is our guest”

“Good, yours is a beautiful manners baby. Then we will certainly wait”

They waited, waited and waited. They waited for more than half an hour.

Then Anirudh called the housemaid and asked her to inform Jasmine as they were waiting for her.

The housemaid knocked the door at once; and when there was no response she pushed the door; as it was not bolted from inside it opened automatically; and she found Jasmine sleeping on the bed. She informed the same to Anirudh.

Anirudh looked at his wrist watch and found it was 0930hrs.

“Oh my god still she is sleeping” He was little irritated.

There was senior officer’s conference by 1000hrs and he already told her to get ready by 0900, but it appeared for him that she neglected.

“Honey please go and wake her up”

She went inside and called her affectionately. When she didn’t respond to her call, she went near to her and tried physically to wake her up, but in vain.

“Dad she is no more” She raised hue and cry and fainted.

“What?” He ran towards her room.

He found Jasmine dead. Her boy colour was changed from placenta to light bluish and he suspected it might be either due to snake bite or suicide by consuming chemical poison.

Then his suspicion went round homicide; and he then observed all around her room; and found a black cobra, which was hiding at the corner of the room as there was no escape and also the flooring was made with a fine and smooth Italic marbles which were slippery even to move.

Then the next question which stroke to his mind was that it might have been the crocked work of somebody with malicious intention.

If at all a black cobra was there means there was no chance of any snake entering the bed room.

If so it might have been pre-planned by somebody, who might have thrown into the bed room from hall by entering the bungalow, as the windows in the room are made air tight as it was provided with a central AC. However, he couldn’t assess anything at that stage.

He knew that he was in troubled waters as it was a ghastly tragedy and it happened right in his bungalow, during her unauthorised stay. He had to answer the hierarchy and so also to face the media.

An unmarried lady probationary IPS officer’s unnatural death couldn’t be taken casual by the government, the media and the public. Prima facie there were serious allegations against him and the women’s forums were demanding the Government to take up the issue seriously; and severe disciplinary action should be initiated against the ACP Mr. Anirudh.

He reacted very sharply. He sprinkled water on Honey. And she slowly gained conscious. He instructed the housemaid to accompany his daughter. He further instructed his driver to drop them at the bungalow of Mrs. Rosaline at once.

“You stay there for few days, till I come and pick up Honey; and return the car after you both are dropped there” He took the decision instantly as it would become a big issue.

Further, as a cop he suspected that Honey would be scared because of the intervention of senior officers; and she would be subjected to cross examination by many officers; and media coverage would be more, till the investigation was completed and the dead body of Jasmine was disposed off.

The housemaid kept the dress and accessories and make up kit of Honey in a travel bag; and later she also kept her dress in another bag and accompanied Honey in the car.

Later, Anirudh gave SMS to Mrs. Rosaline mentioning that he was sending Honey to her bungalow with a request to take care of his daughter for few days.

Mr. Anirudh then informed to DGP and Additional DG law& order, IG Intelligence, the jurisdiction officers and the clues team about the incident.

In the meanwhile, the death news spread slowly to the neighbours and public gather there; and senior cops rushed in, followed by the media of course.

“Really it is a surprise to me Honey. I hope you would recollect the fact that I informed you and also welcomed you to come to my bungalow when my mum is away. Now exactly that happened. My mum has gone to the states, and would be returning after a week or fortnight; and anyway it is fine as both of us are left free; and we are in need of other’s company; and since you have come and joined me, I think both of our needs would be fulfilled” Said Rohit to Honey.

The car driver kept their bag and baggage in his bungalow and left.

Whereas the housemaid went to kitchen room.

“So nice, and your mum’s taste is simply superb and she deserves to be honoured” Honey was looking all around the house and complimented Mrs. Rosaline.

“Whom are you complimenting Honey?”

“Obviously your mum, for her taste of decorating your home so splendidly and marvellously”

“Really! But you haven’t seen my bed room; and after visiting it only you can decide whom to compliment? It is either my mum or me?”

“Sure, let us see that also” He led her to his room and after opening the door, he just clapped once. It turned to be the night effect with the Galaxy, though it was truly a day. It was really fantastic.

“Welcome Honey”

On hearing a melodious voice, she was stunned.

It was the voice of a nightingale, from the cage, hanged at the corner of his bed room.

“Beautiful and thank you dear” She acknowledged the bird.

“Sit down Honey” He showed her the sofa.

He took her bag and baggage and kept them in the racks in his room, and later facilitated her to sit in a sofa.

“Thanks, but you are as smart as Casanova, and you have well planed yourself in advance?” Honey ridiculed him.

“No, no, you are wrong, I am neither a palmist nor numerologist nor a tantric to visualise our future. All the happenings here are only sheer coincidence” He said seriously.

“Sorry” She said apologetically.

“It’s okay”

He brought two ice cream cups, coke tins from the fridge and kept on the tea table.

She didn’t touch anything though her favourite ice cream cups are close to her proximity.

“Please have it Honey” He offered ice cream cup to her.

“No thanks” She refused to take.

“I am sorry if I have hurt you” He said and did sit ups holding his ears with cross hands.

She tried to hold her smile in between her teeth as she could see his short was tore off and also there was no under wear. He immediately covered it with a towel.

“Please enjoy the taste of ice cream and I will change my trouser and come back Honey” He said and rushed to his dressing room.

“Hey Pamper boy” On his return from dressing room, she nicknamed him.

“What?”

“I have seen a birthday boy” She said smilingly.

“What?” he didn’t catch her.

“I am referring you only, birth day boy” She ridiculed him.

“I am no way less than you, and perhaps you will be shocked if I unveil the mystery”

“What is it?” She asked him curiously.

“I have seen an apple girl” He just said casually.

“Who is she?” She asked him at once.

“You are only”

“What?”

“It only refers to the size of your bra”

“Shut up, how do you know it?”

“I have seen you wearing it”

“You mean nude”

“Yeah”

“When did you see me?”

“When we were viewing pornography, you went to change your clothes to night gown”

“But I do remember that I have bolted the door of the dressing room, and then how could you see me?”

“I could peep through key hole”

“So I call you a cheat”

“Sorry, please don’t belittle me. But even if I asked you honestly to show yourself live, would you oblige me? And by the way I feel that there shouldn’t be any secrecy between true friends”

“Of course I can, but we are classmates and besides good friends and then how cum you ask me to appear before you nude? Shame on your part Rohit” She said in little embarrassed situation.

“I know that you are indecisive and that is the reason why I stealthily saw you”

“Do you really want to see me nude?” Honey interrupted and asked him straight.

“Of course”

“But afterwards, are you confident that our friendship will be continued; and we will not fall a prey for worldly pleasures and remain as good friends”

“Sure, why do you doubt me? In fact we are the best friends and there shouldn’t be any secrecy between us” He gave her assurance.

“I see” Honey said and she immediately bolted her bed room door and undressed herself completely and appeared before him in complete nude with erotic postures.

Rohit became panic on seeing her serious reaction and consequent her nudity.

“Thanks” Later he said.

“Mere thanks are not enough man; there must be reciprocation” She instigated him rather provoked him.

“What?” He said in shock.

“Yes, and now I expect the same from you” Honey obligated him indirectly.

“What?” He was feeling shy and nervous too.

“Hey man, I remember you have just now said that there shouldn’t be any secrecy between the true friends; but now you are taking a U turn, then what great is there in our friendship?”

Rohit didn’t give her further chance to challenge him further. He immediately undressed his trouser.

“No please” Honey became annoyed and said.

“Why?” He reacted sharply.

“Because, we will be tempted and fall a prey for ugly desires and commit worldly
