It was shameful.
She was at the point where she could not meet anyone's eyes. Whoever came to greet she saw a glimpse of judgement in their eyes.
Lack of education is really a curse.
It was not like it was her choice. Clover too wanted to complete her graduation. Earn a degree. She was good in studies, a sensitive kid to whom no teacher could yell because tears came so easily in her eyes.
She was their favourite, a sweet innocent small girl with her messy two pigtails, one up and down looking as adorable as her.
The female teachers knew Clover was motherless so they ignored the way her pigtails looked so undone.
They ignored the way she would not bring her lunch. Clover smiled as the thought of one of her loving teachers crossed her mind. Miss Sharma was a young teacher, she would always feed a roti and sugar with her own hands to Clover during lunch.
Until Miss Sharma was her class teacher it was all rainbow and shine for Clover but once she was not Clover was once again left alone.
"Recalling something sweet ?" Someone asked, whispering quietly into her ears.
Clover nodded absentmindedly, still lost in her good old days,"What are you thinking of ?" The man asked and this time Clover could not hold back the lovely smile that adored her lips.
"Miss Sharma, my English teacher in class five and six. She was the best. She used to feed me from her own tiffin box when I would not bring my lunch which was almost everyday-" the lighter words rolled out of her mouth without her knowing.
Sometimes she forgets she has to maintain a silence because no one here is going to hear her.
"You did not take your lunch?" the person asked, dismayed.
Clover shook her head in reply.
"Why ?" the men asked.
"No mumma no food."
Without her even realizing, Clover said it out loud.
Her eyes widened when she realised that she had spoken. That is too much.
Her eyes instantly whipped to Izan, who was looking at her with his eyes filled with shock.
"But you do have a father, why didn't he give you lunch ?" He asked, his words getting colder by the time.
Clover could sense it. She gulped when she saw his eyes were getting redder. Showing him her hand she rubbed her forefinger against the thumb and shook her head simultaneously.
No money.
She meant that however her answer was not satisfying to Izan.
"I call that bullshit. Any father should work his ass off to feed his child," he gritted out and snapped his eyes to Clover's father who was enjoying the amazing delicacies of the night.
"I am going to kill that old hag," he murmured, ready to go to him but Clover held his hand stopping him from going to her father and creating a scene.
She shook her head innocently,...no please...she mouthed with tears coming in her small eyes.
Izan stared at her for a long moment, contemplating to himself.
People do not realise the power of eyes that is why they rely on words
However it is the eyes which can speak the clear, raw emotions which the mouth cannot.
In her eyes, he saw a trust that if she requests him he will not go.. he will listen to her.
Giving up a small sigh he pulled her into a hug.
Clover was lost for words when he hugged her out of nowhere.
Unlike other times this time his touch was soft and almost caring,"I am sorry Clovy. You did not deserve that childhood. I wish I could have met you sooner. I would have saved you from all those empty feelings that you must have gone through at that time."
He whispered into her ears, not knowing what his words were doing to her..
The tears escaped her eyes as she felt the weightage of his words.
He was saying all this when he does not even have an idea what she has gone through in her life. She wondered if he will say the same thing once all her secrets were out.
When he did not leave her even though she pushed him lightly Clover started trembling in his arms, a visible sign of her nervousness and anxiety. Seeing this Izan finally broke the hug. When clover looked at everyone, almost everyone was looking at them. That made her feel awkward and she looked down at her feet out of embarrassment while on the other hand Izan glared at whoever looked at his Clover.
It was later in the evening when a few whispers came to her ears that heightened Clover's embarrassment even more.
"What are you even saying ? Only 8th pass ?"
"Yes, that is what she said. Just imagine the youngest daughter in law of such a rich and reputable family is only 8th pass. In our language we call it gawaar."
The other person replied as they both started laughing at that.
Clover could not handle the shame, she turned her eyes to Izan who was busy in talking with one of his business partners and then at the passing waiter. Feeling her throat getting parched she took a glass of water and gulped it down in one go.
The waiter's eyes widened looking at the new daughter in law gulping the tequila like it's water and his eyes only turned bigger when she gulped four tequila shots one after another.
"Thank you," Clover mouthed to the waiter, finally feeling her nervousness and anxiety disappearing into thin air.
The poor waiter nodded his head with his mouth still left ajar.
Clover giggled at his shocked face before turning her eyes to her new husband.
Her eyes thinned and a dominating pout kissed her lips. She stuck out her tongue at his back before literally flying away from him in a most Sherlock Holmes kind of way.
....
"Ding dong," someone knocked on the music operator's back. The man kept his headphone open down and looked back only to find the young queen tipsing and toeing on her feet.
"Mother queen you," he instantly went to his one knee, keeping his hand against his heart and bowing his head to her.
Clover nodded her head cutely with her lips pressed tight.
"Umm ummm," she hummed before taking off the cap of the pen she was holding and opening the same palm which he was holding against his chest.
"Queen, no you can't touch me. KINGS WILL KILL ME IF THEY SAW YOU NEAR ME AND TOUCHING ME."
Clover narrowed her eyes at him before letting out a small giggle.
"Kill so much fun," she giggled again and then wrote her demands on his palms with two hearts on both the sides.
ā ā” Kaanta Lagaaa ā”
ā” Choli Ke Peeche Kya hai ā”
She wrote and then joined her hands together as she said.
"Dj wale bhaisaab please Mera gana baja do."
....
Izan felt something was missing, perhaps someone was missing.
Wanting to hold his wife's hand he forwarded his hand to find the space near him empty.
His eyes snapped at the vacant space, a fear knocking on his heart, his palms getting clammy. Ignoring the people who were congratulating him he searched for his wife.
For the first time he was anxious in front of the sea of people, his unsteady nervous gaze whipped to his Reyna bhabhi, she took care of his Clover like a big sister in his absence.
However Reyna was sitting close to her husband, their little child sleeping on her husbands shoulder. Their was no sight of Clover near them.
As the time kept passing he heard the beats of his heart getting faster, his strong persona one step away from crumbling.
His eyes then searched for his second sister in law and brother, they were together, like they always used to, hand in hand like two vines of tree entwined together.
For a second he felt a pinch of envy from his own brothers, their life partner was with them but he was alone.
"Clover," her name passed from his lips and even though it was impossible his small whisper reached his brother's ears and both of them turned their eyes to him simultaneously.
Absence of the new daughter in law alerted them too.
Izan was ready to leave everything and go search for his Clover, maybe she got bored, went to their bedroom, or perhaps she went to the washroom, or to the balcony to get some fresh air.
However it was unlikely for any of these things to happen, the girl would not go anywhere without telling someone.
"Where is Clover?" Aks asked as soon as he along with Zehra and his elder brother and sister in law reached to him.
"I don't know she was just here but then she just disappeared..." he whispered out, the words were like acid to his tongue.
She just disappeared.... He knew he was wrong, she did not disappear, he lost her.
"Hey, stop worrying. She must have gone to the washroom. These functions are so tiring she must have gone to freshen up. You don't worry I'm going to look for her," Zehra said, seeing the fear on Izan's face.
Reyna agreed with what Zehra said,"Yes, don't you remember my reception? I went to my room and slept early before the function was even finished. Your brother had to entertain the guest alone," she made them remember a similar incident just to comfort Izan.
"Exactly," Zehra spoke, however , before she could move the lights went off.
Everyone was startled, the guests started whispering, Reyna and Zehra were stunned nothing like this happened in any of their functions. The men of the family were alerted, it could be an enemy's invasion.
"I am going to check," Aks said.
However before he could move the music started bursting through the speakers and the limelight fell on the bride of the evening.
Everyone in the family looked horrified as Clover walked down the stairs, the limelight moving along with her.
There was something change, change in her eyes and persona.
It did not take much time for Izan to see that she was drunk.
He ran to her and held her arms but she did not let him pull her instead she pulled him against her body and...
Started thrusting her chest in and out sensually to the music of kaanta laga.
"Holy shit," Reyna whispered when she saw Clover turning into a full on dancing queen. Zehra mirrored the same expression, equally shocked.
Aks and Nirvana turned their eyes away from the scene unfolding in front of them.
While among all of them the most who was enjoying the show was Ahren who woke up from his sleep happily clapping for his Chachi.
"Aayi musibat to ab sochti hoon
Main kyun reh saki na tere bin
Sach hi to kehti thi
sakhiya fasegi tu ekdin
Bhool to ho gayi, jo kiya so kiya
Tu bacha le balam, aaj mera jiya..." wrapping her arms around Izan's neck she sang looking into his eyes.
Izan who till now just wanted to take her out of this situation suddenly smiled at the look on her face, it was cute yet sexy. And the way she looked straight into his eyes....
He wished she looked at him like this for the rest of their life.
However when the song changed into a more sensuous song he came out of his delusion and grabbed her shoulders to stop her but Clover did not stop, she kept dancing, her steps coming out as someone professional, her hips moving in perfect rhythm, her chest seeming more ample and full.
She moved like an Apsara. An Apsara whose beauty and moves left Izan asking for more, yet he wished it was all inside the four walls of their room.
"Go and stop her," Nirvana clenched out through his gritted teeth to Reyna , he was not looking but the world was.
Reyna nodded and shared a worried look with Zehra. "What should we do, Zuru ? Clover is looking so tipsy that she would not listen to us," she said looking at how even Izan was not able to stop her.
"Let me think Rey," Zehra said and tried finding some ways to stop Clover. And then something clicked in her mind and she whispered into Reyna's ears.
"We cannot stop her from what she is doing but we can definitely share the embarrassment which she will feel once she has her sanity back."
Reyna looked at Zehra who shrugged her shoulders in,"We cannot let her take all of it all alone," she said and with that both of them too moved to the dance floor.
It was Aks and Nirvana's time to get shocked by their wives.
As Choli ke peeche kya hai bursted out from the speakers, the sensual and borderline erotic steps were groove out from all three of them.
Stunned seeing his bhabhis also grooving to the chirpy remix, Izan moved back and stood by his brother's side.
"I Can Not Believe This !"
Nirvana spoke, stunned. The other two nodded.
He followed the way Reyna's hips moved with the beats of the music, a part of him wanted to stop her but another part kept watching the way she was dancing.
His eyes narrowed as she blew him a kiss, he could feel his soldier down there getting ready for tonight.
She could feel it too as her eyes for a millisecond cluttered to his crotch and her lips moved in a smirk.
A fucking smirk as she started at him.
He did not move from his place as he saw her approaching him with extra sway on her walk.
Her eyes moved to his crotch and then again to him as she came nearer, with her erasing the distance his heartbeat got faster.
Reyna was enjoying the lust for her swirling in his eyes.
She wanted to kiss him.
But she wanted to make him wait too.
Not knowing what to do, she moved closer to his face, their lips only inches apart as she blew out a breath on his face.
Her sweet strawberry-like breath...he got a temptation to eat her raw but he could not. At least not in front of everyone.
Another smirk pulled on her lips, soon her lips touching his every second word of the song as she wrapped her one arm around his shoulder and looking deep into his eyes sang.
"Begum Bagair Badshah Kis Kaam Ka
Badshah Bagair Begum Kis Kaam Ki
Teri Marazi Tu Jaane
Meri Marzi Main Jaanu
Maine Jawani Tere Naam Ki
Naam Ki...."
With that she left him and again went to join the other two.
Meanwhile, Aks's eyes followed as Zehra swayed her waist with the music, with a lustful expression on her innocent face she was mirroring a siren who was free of any fear and was dancing..not for him or others but for herself.
He felt his throat turning dry at the way her long hair moved with her steps and scattered on her back and shoulders.
Instead of a timid woman who does not speak to him when there is no necessity, he found a woman who can dance her way out, as sensually as possible.
A woman who can lure the world if she wants.
A woman who was expressing the hidden part of herself by going with the music like the moving wind.
Zehra was expressing her suppressed sultriness.
The way she was biting her lips while closing her eyes at the double meaning lyrics he knew she was no more with a sane mind.
She has lost herself or perhaps found herself.
Her expressions, the sultry attitude and the feeling which told her that she was hot too, she was desirable too, she too has a sexy side in her.
She was a complete woman.
It showed with her every move and made him feel which even he did not understand, , he turned his eyes down and after a long time felt tears stinging into his eyes.
He did not understand what these tears were for.
Was it for guilt or for hate, was the tears in his eyes reciprocated his hidden anger or was it something else all together.
Not able to understand his own feelings he walked off there, his own mind playing with him as he passed through the corridors with tears running from his eyes.
At the end he slumped against a wall and let the tears come out freely.
The truth was his tears were of loss.
He lost the game.
In a few minutes she showed him what she could not see it herself.
She can be sexy, she can be bold, she can enjoy her life in whichever way she wants.....she can live.
Without him.
All along it was her who was pitying on him.
She did not want this marriage...it was him who needed it.
Even though she is not realizing it now, she was free from her once true love when she saw him in another's woman's arms.
She was just hanging on the memories now.
And if she creates a new memory.. Maybe she will forget the old memories and him.
And this realisation is not settling well with him, why ? He does not know.
But the heart feels heavy and the eyes heavier with tears.
....
A few hours later..
"Go slow Nirvana," Reyna said, gasping for air as Nirvana thrusted inside her.
"You are asking for it this evening. Now take it like a good bitch," he said, slamming inside her harder than before.
"Oh fuckkkk," Reyna cried out but she did not stop him. They were fucking raw and she loves it when they did it like this.
After their so called Mujra which Reyna and Zehra called it later and laughed the whole house was empty. They later got to know that during their dance performance only the house was empty with the guest being sent or literally pushed out.
Being so lost in their dance they did not even realise what's going around them but at least Clover will not feel embarrassed alone.
"I did it for Clover. We could not stop her while she was so drunk so it was better to join her. At least tomorrow morning she will not feel like she alone created drama.. her sisters were equally dramatic and insane like her."
She said as he covered her with his body, hugging her,"Umm you did good," he mumbled in her ears and continued fucking her not actually caring for whatever happened.
He will handle everything later right now fucking her was important.
"I know uff..," Reyna licked her lips after feeling him going deeper and said," it was way out of line for us to dance like that but honestly it was fun.. and...and oh my fucking lord don't stop fucking me !!"
Reyna cried out and Nirvana followed suit. They were about to reach their high when suddenly they heard a loud scream of a woman.
"Aaaaaaaaaa..."
Both of them stopped and looked at each other, alerted.
Another scream came and Reyna pushed him away from her,"It's Clover," she said hurriedly getting on her feet.
Nirvana's eyes widened in fear for his new sister, he did not want any harm to her. That girl is as fragile as a rosebud and he will not show it but he cares for her. He was also on his feet in a fraction of second.
Both of them wore their night robes and sprinted out of the room.
