Ajay's fear
Ajay was typing as fast as possible. He wanted to go home early. He knew if he delayed, he couldn't able to spend time with his kids. He was completing his work on his computer when suddenly out of nowhere his boss came. Rajat Sir smiled towards him & said " Today I need to go to some important work can you do little bit extra work?" Ajay wanted to say no but he knew that was not option. He knew that if he said no then he would surely take risk on his job. His job was important to him. Ajay smiled & said " Of course!" " My daughter Rucha is coming today from abroad. I want you to go on airport & receive her." Ajay nodded nervously. Ajay knew Rucha very well. At beginning when he joined job he used to admire her so much. She was his dream girl. Sometimes he used to save money from his salary to buy gifts for Rucha. He never understood that he was making fool of himself. On that point she was precious princess in his views. Boss was also happy that he was admiring Rucha. Boss always wanted all to admire his daughter & whenever Ajay purchased something. It was one free gift in eyes of Boss. Rucha always used to take it with affection. He wanted to date Rucha but he knew that it was impossible. Then one day when he came in office & he was planning to go to pick Rucha from her music classes Boss informed him that Rucha went abroad for further education. He was so sad. He was expecting that Rucha would at a least tell him in advance as friend. But Rucha didn't. It was clear to him that Rucha didn't consider him any one important. That night he cried so much. Then his mom came for his help. His mom introduced him to few girls who belonged to their circle. He began to date & slowly he got over Rucha. He found his wife Gita. She was perfect for him. He was living happy married life with two children but Rucha always remained negative thought for him. She was a nightmare in his life. He didn't want to have any connection with her. He remembered how did he managed to make fool of himself before world for Rucha. It was so embarrassing. He didn't want Gita to know about it. He felt so certain that Rucha would tell all to his wife. He wanted to say no to Boss. But Boss already went out of gate. Boss ordered him. Boss didn't ask for his opinion so he supposed to do it or he would lose his job. He felt so upset by all. Ajay knew that he didn't have much options. He called Gita to tell her that he would be late. Gita was already too busy in her household chores. She didn't mind. Gita was not much interested in his issues & Rucha was big issue for him. He felt so stressed. He just wanted to talk with his mom but sadly his mom died last year only so he needed to do all on his own. He knew that he was doing to do all in wrong way but he decided that he would need to do it. He went in washroom. He checked his appearance & prepared himself to receive Rucha. He even practiced his perfect smile to please her. After all he needed bonus & perks for Gita & his children. He needed to please Rucha since he wanted to continue his job & get increments.
When Rucha called her father informed her that Ajay would come to
receive her. She smiled happily. Ajay was nice person. He used to throw so much
money on her. She began to laugh on that memory. She loved it. She felt always
more confident when men showered gifts on her. She was hoping that he wouldn't
be changed but then she remembered that he never emailed her or sent message to
her when she went to abroad so he was clearly changed. She knew that Ajay didn’t love her any more. She wanted him to keep admiring her but it was not
happening but Rucha didn’t plan to take it to her heart. She could still use
him as per her requirements. She always managed to make certain about one thing
that she must keep her influence on everyone around her. Her father’s staff
supposed to be under her thumb. She knew that Ajay would remain same way. She
called Ajay. It was so stressful. She wanted to feel that she had control over
Ajay. She felt so negativity in her soul. Rucha waited for Ajay to take call.
Rucha began to feel negative in every way. Ajay finally took call. Ajay “Madam
I am coming to pick you up.” His voice was so formal. She started to feel so
much anger in his thoughts for her. She asked “Are you upset with me?” He
didn’t want to answer for some time. He said slowly “Actually I had my plans
with family…” He said pointedly. He wanted her to know that he wasn't suffering
due to her moods. Rucha felt so angry. He was behaving like equal. He supposed
to behave like inferior. He needed to sense that he was not someone superior. She
felt so upset. Clearly, he was not considering himself inferior any more. It
was so upsetting. But he immediately added “You need to understand Madam. My wife
wants me to spend more time with her. If I come to receive her, it will be
problematic for me.” Now she laughed. She sensed that he was scared of his
wife. It was so stressful. She began to think about different angles. She
needed to convince him that he didn’t need to feel scared of wife. Ajay was
clearly upset by all. Ajay needed to feel positive but his life was going in
negative way. Ajay slowly said “Madam I will come take you & drop your
home. You don’t need to worry. I will come on time.” Rucha wanted to continue
talking but he was clearly not interested. Ajay felt so upset. He was not
chauffer but still he needed to do that job. He looked towards his seat. He was
sitting on driving seat & driving seat. He was very careful while driving. He
wanted to be perfect. He wanted every route carefully. He was feeling so
excited. He needed to think hopefully regarding all. But he was feeling so
inferior. He was feeling like someone who never seen success in career. He felt
so sad. He decided that he needed to talk with his wife. He called Gita & without
second thought he told everything to her. He started to get so tense. He didn’t
understand why he told to Gita. But then Gita talked in calm voice “Now it was
incidence of youth. In young age people always act that way. You never cross
any limits so it’s not important.” “No, it is! That woman is not nice person.
She will surely try to hurt me… I mean emotionally.” Gita didn’t say anything
for some time. Then she finally spoke “I don’t feel she can harm you if you
decide to not permit it.” She felt so sad. She began to get restless mentally.
Gita didn’t want Ajay to continue with jot but they didn’t have much option.
After driving for long time
through traffic finally Ajay reached to airport. He was clearly exhausted. He
wanted to feel confident. But he was not feeling confident at all. Rucha was
waiting for him. Rucha was shocked to see his appearance. He was no longer
stylish person. He was looking like normal man. She was no longer like his
appearance. She literally regretted calling him. Ajay started walking towards
Rucha. He was so shocked to see Rucha was looking exactly like old times. Rucha
was not changed even a little bit. It was so odd. She didn’t seem to age at
all. He felt so confused. He decided that it was not his problem. He smiled
& came ahead. “Hello Madam let me drop you home.” She was so angry. She
was expecting a handsome man but he was looking so ordinary. She screamed on him
“I don’t understand why did Dad send you? I can drive on my own?” He felt so
confused. He didn’t understand what he supposed to say. He just kept standing
quietly. He just took out car keys & presented them to her. She took it
from his hand forcibly. Then she sat in car & drove away fast. He was so
confused. He left that Rucha was driving too fast so he
decided to make call to Rajat Sir. He kept calling but Rajat Sir didn’t receive
his call. He was standing there. He didn’t have any vehicle to go home. He was
so frustrated. He decided to call Cab. He knew that he was wasting money out of
his pocket but he had no options. He didn’t understand that why did Rucha got
so upset with him. It was totally frustrating. After catching on Cab, he went
home. He rang door bell. Gita immediately opened door. Gita asked without
waiting “So what happened?” “I don’t understand.” Then he described entire
incidence. Gita laughed loudly. Gita “You are not that much handsome
anymore.” He didn’t understand but he
felt upset. He watched in mirror. He was
looking older. But frankly he didn’t care. He had his family. His children were
growing up faster. He went to sleep peacefully. But he was shocked when early
in morning Rajat Sir called & told him to don't come to office. “But Sir you
can’t fire me suddenly like that!” “I will give a salary of a year.” He was so
shocked. A salary of a year without work was something he couldn’t resist. He
immediately agreed. He went in office to take back things. He didn’t understand
why did his boss fired him like that. But he didn’t want to confess it so he
pretended that he was signing. It was so stressful. He went out of that office.
He went home. He began to search for job. He needed a nice job. But he was not
getting one. It was getting complicated. Finally, he found one. It was
temporary. But he didn’t mind. He already had one year salary in his bank
account so he was not worried. He felt so stressed out still. He knew that he
had earning but still he wanted a job where he could settle down properly.
After searching hard, he finally found one job. It was nice one. He settled in
it. One day his Boss came angrily in office. Then his boss called him in cabin.
His Boss asked “Do you know Rajat?” “He was my Boss.” “His daughter is odd!”
Now Ajay felt so confused. But he didn’t want to hide anything from his new
Boss. It was temporary job & he was hoping to become permanent. He told
step by step. His Boss didn’t look shocked. Boss “I heard same sort of
complaints. She seems like obsessed about some sort of men. You are lucky that
she lost interest in you. She doesn’t look like sound woman.” Ajay nodded &
pretended that he managed to escape without harm. But when Ajay came back to
his table. He remembered. When he was in love with Rucha one day his mom gave
him money for medicines. He took it. Then he went to one gold shop to purchase
gold jewelry for Rucha. He spent all. He didn’t tell his grandmother about
money his mom gave. He lied many times. He managed to collect money through these
sorts of frauds to spend on her. He still felt that he was lucky that she went
to abroad. Now he was no longer her choice. He was fired since she didn’t like
him. He was glad about it too. But he still felt guilty about things he did for
her. He felt that he was acting like unsound person on that time too. But
luckily it was over. Rucha had mental issue but no one was going to tell it to
her. They all just decided to avoid her. She was so rich & powerful that no
one dared to question her. Ajay suddenly sensed that he lost too much time in
thinking about her. She still had some influence on his mind. He shivered with
fear & then once again he returned back to his work.
