I'm trying to keep my eyes open while hearing the noises of doctors and the beeps of machines. It's feeling like something is going away from me. I'm trying my best to keep my conscious. But second by second my strength is draining and pain is increasing into my head and whole body. But right now , I don't give damn to my own self. Anything could happen to me. I don't care. But nothing should happen to my child ... he should survive and live his life unlike his mother "who never got anything in her life. First I couldn't get the love from my  parents "which i deserved.."  then i got the husband "who don't give shit to my existence. My whole life went trying to get the piece of love "which I at least deserved once in my life . But no one dared to give to me and now god is snatching my last happiness as well. Which is my child. When I'd got to know about him. A ray of hope I'd felt in my life. I thought at least now I'll able to get someone whom I could call mine. But seems like god couldn't see me stay happy and now I'm laying on death bed holding my womb pleading to god that he should keep my baby safe. But I guess he can't see me happy and soon I heard doctor's faint voice " who announced baby is no more.

We lost the baby. He whispered looking at other doctors being dejected. Tears made their ways from my twitching eyes..' and I felt like to scream and cry bitterly. All the emotions are gushing towards my brain and heart. but being numb on the bed made me so helpless that I can't even cry. After battling with my emotions'  I couldn't hold my sanity and fell unconscious.

......

After I don't know how many hours "I open my eyes half and look around. But because of weakness I can't even see properly. Everything is looking so blurry and twitchy.

Anika darling you woke up. Someone says gaining my  attention. I slowly tilt my head and found my mother in law is sitting on the stool having teary eyes.

Maa" I whispered gazing at her tiredly.

Yes i am here. She sobs and hold my injured hand in her palm ... I can see how sad she is seeing me in this condition. She is the only genuine person I've got in my life who loves me truly. Or maybe she finds me good for her son ..that's why She likes me. She knows and god knows about it. But till now she is nice to me. Which makes her good person in my life.

Where am I ??? I whispers again trying to hold her hand . which she is having in her palm. But weakness is not allowing me to do.

You are in the hospital Since three days. Doctors had gave you sedative to keep you asleep. So that your injuries get heal little and give you less pain. You are fine right??. You have gotten so weak. She sniffles while caressing my hair lovingly. But right now I don't care about myself. I just hoping whatever I've heard in subconscious state. It should be lie. My baby should be fine and breathing in my womb. So without thinking anything "I ask her about it.

How's my baby??? Did they save him. He is with me right ??? Hearing me "she burst into tears and shakes her head in no shuttering my all hope.

So sorry sweet heart. He couldn't make up. Your accident was so horrible that it took his life. He didn't survive. Hearing her " i couldn't fathom with my emotions and I started crying letting my emotions over power me. I kept hand on my stomach and wailed without giving Damn to my injuries.

anika darling stop crying. My mother in law sat on the bed besides me and take me in hug without hurting me. She kept caressing my hair and soothe me till I didn't get quite. But she doesn't know that ' for time being I've stopped my tears. but the scars of losing child has been marked on my Brain and heart that it would never able to fade away in life time.

After sometime

When she felt I'm fine she broke apart and wipe my tears giving me sympathised look ...

Everything will be fine. She says passing me sad smile whicn I didn't reciprocate and let my eyes drip tears.

Where's shivaay ??? As I asked her about her son " her smile faded and she turn her face away. Seeing her face "I got to know "he didn't bother to come into the hospital to meet me. And to be honest" it didn't surprise me either. The way he treats me. I guess he won't care if I would die or stay alive.

He came before two days. When you had accident. He was here only. And was so much into sorrows. He was So grieved seeing your condition and about losing the baby. He stayed her day to night. But when his condition deteriorated' he left with malika. Hearing malika's name I sneers and turn my face away. Of course he would be with malika .... after all she is the only one who is more important to him than anyone else. Him being with her is more necessary than being with his wife "'who was fighting for her life and most important lost their child. But why would he care ... when he don't like her at all. If she would had died then surely it won't had bothered him. Infect he would has been happiest person in the world.  sand  would had celebrated it. But god is not that easy on her. He kept her alive to bear more pain in her life which are written in her destiny .

You take rest. I'm going to meet the doctor. My mother in law said fixing the sheet on top of me and left from there leaving me alone in the hospital room being surrounded by machines and the other equipments.

After few days

Finally doctor allowed me to go home after so much pleading and right now I'm standing infront of the Mirror looking my broken self. In those days all family came to meet me and expressed their sadness toward my baby's passing. But among all of them one person didn't show up ' whom I needed the most and that's my dearest husband. Leave coming to meet me ' He neither called me or asked for me to his parents. It's feels like "I don't have anyone named husband in my life whose child I was bearing and lost it during the accident. Well expecting to care about me will be last thing I can wish from him. He would never do that even in his dreams. So better if I don't hope for it and let it go.

Anika you are ready. Come let's go. Khana have been arrived with the car. My mother in law announced getting int the washroom.

Yh ""I simply nods my head and with help of her I left the hospital....

.....

Mam you ok. Khana says having smile on his face.

Yh I'm fine. I simply answered him and sat in the car. Even the security of my husband asked me about my well being. And him " whose wife I'm. He didn't bother to show up in hospital or not even called me asking for my well being. Thinking about this my filled with tears and I bend my head down Before anyone notices me crying

After half an hour journey ' I reached home and as usual my mother in law helped me to walk inside holding my hand. I come inside along with her and found family is doing lunch sitting on the dinning area. As they saw me they pass me sad smile and then again got busy in eating their lunch.

Come let's go. I'll take you in room and then I'll

Bring you lunch. My mother in law wrapped arms around my torso and helped me till my room.

You are fine right ??. She asked me entering in the room. But before we entered "we stopped seeing my husband sitting on the bed hugging malika's waist crying whilst she is consoling him keeping hand on his head caressing his hair. Seeing them together something broke inside me and I felt fool standing there while seeing my my husband crying hugging another woman ....

Anika darling you came back. Malika speak In her sugar coated voice making my husband realised my presence. He broke apart snd look towards me with his red misty eyes. Malika walks towards me and took me in hug caressing my back. 

Oh sweetheart. I felt so sad after hearing the accident. You and shivaay didn't deserve it at all. She express her grief toward me .. which I very well know" it's all fake and baseless.

What are you doing here malika?? That also with my son. My mother in law said rudely making her broke apart from the hug.

Shivaay wasn't feeling good. So I thought to stay with him for a while. After all he lost the child as well like anika. Isn't. She speaks in her soft voice having smile trying to be extra nice "which I very well know she is not.

This is not nice malika. He is married for god sake. Leave him alone. At this time he should be with his wife not with you. Pinky my mother in law said while glaring her.

Aunty but I'm his friend and .... malika try to justify but pinky my mother in law stopped her showing her hand.

Yes you are his friend... so be that only. Don't need to be his wife. She retorted in her firm tone.

Mom why are you being rude with her. This is not the way to talk to someone. My husband came to defend his friend " which didn't surprise me at all. As he always find her right more than anyone else.

Shivaay you don't tell me that how I've to talk to her. I know what's her motive. She says giving malika death glare " which made her eyes teary and she left from there crying. My Husband try to follow her " but my mother in law didn't let him and stopped him holding his hand.

Let her go. She will be fine. Right now you should be with your wife not with that girl. As she said him he look at me and didn't speak anything. I can see " he is sad as well about losing the baby. The way his eyes are red and having dark circles . Seems like he's been crying from long hours and  haven't slept as well.

Here help her to take to the bed.before I say something she pass me to him" which resulted me to fell in his arms.

I'm going to get soup for her. Till then tuck her into the bed. Saying this she left from there leaving me with my husband " who raise his hand to touch me for supporting. But before he do" I broke apart and stumble back.

Anika he whispered my name stepping towards me to help me to stand straight. But I just showed him hand and itself started walking towards it with wobbling feet. I can feel his burning gaze at me. till I didn't reach near my bed. But I didn't look back at all snd then sat on the bed keeping hand on my back which is aching so badly along with my head.

Let me help you to get in. He comes towards me and move his hand to lay down " but I shook my head and denied to take his favour.

I can do it myself. You don't worry. I say rudely and Straighten my legs on the bed. I can see he didn't like my tone. But I don't give Damn about it as well. If he doesn't care about me or my child. Then I don't give shit about it also .

I'm doing it because mom said to me. Otherwise I don't wish to do either. He says gritting his teeth stepping back.

She is not here. So don't help girl like me who entered in your life forcefully. And been causing you pain. Tears fell from my eyes looking into his blue eyes which are so cold to disguise. Before few minutes same man was crying hugging his best friend. But now it's feel like "he doesn't have emotions at all. But well expecting anything from him is baseless things. Being his wife i don't know that much things about him the way his friend knows " who wonder around him all the time and behave like his wife more than his actual wife. It's been three year of our marriage. And I don't think so a single day I've spent in peace. All the time we have been fighting and reason was malika malhotra ! His x girlfriend and current best friend .. who shows herself his best friends and always behave like she owns him. But it's not her fault either. It's him who gives her more priority and always compared her with me and cursed me that I can never be her. She is the only best woman he has in his life " whom I can never compete in anything .."whether if it's in looks ,intelligence or something else. Before I'd little expectations from him. But when he didn't care to stay at hospital. My all hope had been tarnished and now I can see down fall of our relationship "which gotten weaker than before. I sniffles and  bend my eyes down not able to look of him anymore. It's makes me weak , it's makes me feel that I'm most unimportant person on earth who have been Smeared into people's life without their will.." whether if it in my parents or husbands who hates me to the core.

Yh right. You are curse to me only. Because of you , I'm not in peace. Already I was not happy with you and you have put me in one more sorrow of losing the child. I'd thought that might it will help us to run our life ahead. But I was wrong. I was totally wrong. Your stubbornness made us lose our child. If that day you won't had gone in anger" then I don't think so you would had caught in acciden neither we would had lost our baby. But no.. you always don't listen to me and do whatever your mind says . I curse that day when i listened to my mum and got married to you. If I would had got stubborn infront of my mother. Then I didn't have to face all this. Anyways it's done whatever had to. I can't say anything about it now. Do hell with you. Saying this he just glare me and left from there leaving me in pool of tears. Right now I'd really needed him to being with me. But I guess excepting anything from him is useless things. It was better "if i would had died in that accident. Atleast I didn't have to hear all of this and bear the pain of losing the baby " who was only hope had left for me to survive. I sobs and closed my eyes letting my tears fell from the cheek.

Anika darling are you alright ...?? my mother in law got panic finding me crying.

Yh I'm fine. I'm fine. I wipe my tears and passed her weak smile controlling my inner battle which is killing me inside. I want to scream and yell ... but nothing is coming out except these tears which always betray me.

Where's shivaay ?? Isn't he with you ??? She says looking around hoping to find her son.

He left. I simply answered clearing tears from my cheek.

Where ??? I'd told him to stay with you. She says being disappointed on her son who never listen to her and does that which his heart says.

I don't know .. has he ever told me that he will tell me today. I don't know where he is gone. Hearing me she closed her eyes and shakes her head in disbelief .

Ok fine "here have this soup. it will give you some strength. She says forwarding soup towards me.

I will drink it later. Right now I wanna freshen up. I says getting out of the blanket trying to stand with much difficulties.

Let me help you. She came forward to help me. But nods no and and speak.

It's fine I'll go on my own. Thank you for asking. saying this I kept hand on the head board and left towards washroom .....

I came in the bathroom snd remove my clothes leaving myself naked infront of the mirror. Seeing my belly fading slowly to Normal phase made me broke into sobs and I lean on the sink letting my emotions over powered me. Why god have done this to me. Why did he take my baby away. Didn't he feel a little mercy on me while doing. At least he could had let him survive. And if he wanted to take him back then why did he let me survive in this cruel world. He would had killed me as well in that accident instead leaving me stay more I. this ruthless life. I sobs and sat on the floor biting ny own hand trying to not increase my wails. But being helpless " I couldn't control my emotions and cry till my eyes didn't get empty.

At night :::

I'm laying on the bed. But sleep is far away from my eyes. I'm trying my best to get a little nap "but nothing is working.... And my mind and heart is all gloomy with sadness. Suddenly I flinch when I felt someone entered in the room and I guess it's shivaay. I raise my eyeballs for seeing the clock and found it's 2 am of night and this guy has decided to come back at this time. With his wobbling foot steps and murmurings " I can feel that he is drunk. But I didn't dare to get off from the bed or move. As I know " if I did then things will happen those' which I can't have it right now.

Why this happened ??, why this happened ??? He whispered continuously and sat on the bed with thud dipping his side of his bed. I muffled and kept my hand on my mouth controlling my sobs.

Here you are sleeping peacefully and there I'm not able to get a single peace. Why did you do this to us Anns. Why did you do it. He stutters and scoot towards me. I can feel his breath on my hair and it made me so stiff on my place. Suddenly I gasp when I felt his arm around my waist and soon I've been pulled towards him and my back hit his chest. He Nuzzle into my hair and closed his eyes holding me tight in his hold.

Why did you marry me anika. Why didn't you say no when I'd warned you. Now see "because of it "how many problems we are facing. It's all your fault. Malika is right ""you are soul reason of every problem. Because of you I'm unhappy today. I wish ..... I wish you would never came into my life. I wish .... I wish ... you would had died .......

Don’t forget to vote and comments.😊

After meeting "she bid bye to her boss and decided to leave direct for home. As it's already time of her departure. He offered her lift. But she refused to take it and decided to go on the texi "instead going with him. As she knows " If she went with him then her family will get one more chance to insult her ..which she really don't have capacity to get. So better" she be careful in everything. She comes out from the restaurant and book her texi on Uber. Whicn showed " it gonna be there in few minutes. While waiting " she is scrolling her phone ' when her eyes landed on her husband" who is going with malika and not only that. Both of them are laughing. Seeing him laughing and happy with another woman broke something inside her. Since they got married. They barely talk to each other. And if they do. Then he always ended up fighting with her. Never they shared few words of love. It was always a compromised relationship. Which never had any comfort zone. Since they got married he just used her for sex only. Rather than that no any other emotions have been shared .. which she could remember. She sighs on her own thoughts and look towards the road. Seeing her texi coming she got ready and left from there instead burning her heart seeing him with someone else.

At home

She reached nearly 07 and found everyone are drinking their evening tea. Seeing them laughing she found it odd. As she thought because of morning fiasco " they would be sour. But nothing seems like here.

Whats happening here ,?? She whispered seeing sweets plate laying in middle of the table and not only that gouri ",her sister in law is blushing and grandma is caressing her hair showering Her so much love. Which she barely does to anyone.

May your child and you stay healthy. Take care of you and your child specially. I don't want you to be careless like others. Don't take some bad person influence. Hmm she said glaring anika with her eyes which showed her that she is talking about her no one else.

Gouri are you alright??? Anika move towards her while asking " but grandma stopped her way coming in middle.

You have recently lost your child. And I really don't want your black shadow fall over gouri. I want her child to be healthy. Can't take chance to let your hands lay on her. Hearing her insensitive words " anika's eyes filled with tears and she bend her head down holding her bag strap tight in her hand. She had thought that she will say sorry to her. And will apologise to her for her morning behaviour. But seems like this woman really don't deserve it at all. Whatever she said in morning "it was right. She won't bend down infront of her like that.

Congratulations gouri. I'm so happy for you. She simply smiles having wet eyes and walk out from there not feeling to be part of this family at all. Well how can she be part of this family " when her husband doesn't consider her as her wife. She sneers on her own thoughts and entered in the room. She kept her bag on the bed side and set on it rushing her hands towards her face feeling hell tired and helpless. She so wanna run away from this house and go there where no one could find her. But she can't do that as well. As She don't have any choice except living in this house where people hates her. Suddenly she startled when her phone started ringing.

Who's calling at this time .. she whispered and get her phone out from her purse. Seeing her father calling She frown. As she knows "he never calls her except if he needs something. But anyhow she pick up and kept on her ear.

Anika princess how are you??? You didn't call me since ages. Have you forgotten your father. Hearing his sweet coated voice she perplexed as he never talked to her like that expect when he needs something from her specially money.

I'm fine baba. Was just busy in something. You tell how are you???

I'm not fine darling. Now days I've been struggling in my business. Money is going more than I'm earning. It's feeling like I'm gonna lose my business soon. And on top of that I've took debt as well. Hearing him anika sneers knowing where this topic is leading.

Err I was thinking if you could land me some money just for few days. I promise. Soon I'll return it as soon as I get profit. Anika exhale the breath and spoke

An. How much you need???

Just around 200 grands. As anima heard this she chocked and widen her eyes.

Are you serious baba. I can't give you more then twenty thousand grands. Not more than that.

So ask shivaay he can give you. I guess it's just a little dust for him. Hearing him anika shakes her head and stood up bowling in anger.

I can't say him to give you money yet again. Already you didn't return last money " which you took from pinky aunty. And now you are demanding more. No i won't ask him. I can never. As anika denied' he grunts and changed his usual voice into rough hoarse.

It's just 200 grands. Not like millions of.. that you are shouting at me like this. I will fuckin return each and every penny of your husband as I'll be stable. don't worry. But right now you gonna ask him and that's final. And if you didn't then remember one thing your mom is with me. And many things can happen in this house with her. Saying this he cut the call leaving anika baffled on her place. She is feeling so helpless and scared on the same time for her mother. If she didnt get money then her ruthless father will rip her mother's skin off. Which she can't afford to let it happen so now only one Option left snd that's asking shivaay. which she really don't wanna do at all. She held her head and set on the bed holding her head in tension.

After sometimes

She is fixing the bedsheet of her bed. When  shivaay comes there. Seeing her there he didn't say anything and  directly went to the dressing room to get his night suit not before throwing his jacket on the bed "which she was fixing.

Foe god sake ' can't you see that I was fixing it. Why the hell you threw your jacket here. She rolls her eyes picking up the jacket folding it properly. Shivaay grit his teeth and grasp  her arm in his hand pulling her towards him

Don't shout at me.  I hate people who does that.  And I guess you know it very well. Anika sneers and pulled her arm back from his hold glaring him.

I know you better than anyone else  mr oberoi.  Whom you like and whom you hate. She pulled her arm back from his grip and went towards dressing room following by him

What do you mean by that. He pulled her yet again toward him holding her  elbow

I'm talking about malika. You just like her only.  Her company her jokes. Her everything. Except her you don't like anything else  in this world. And doesn't bother you if someone dies or stay  alive.  Isn't. She says passing him tight smile  and took her arm back from his hold.

It's nothing like that. She is my friend and ....

Yes friend with whom you spend whole day. Don't you.    Saying this she kept the jacket in cupboard and come out without letting him to say to her.

I was with   her because we had meeting. That's all. Stop assuming things like this. Moreover why do you care  "whom I like so much and whom not. After all our relationship is nothing but a compromised.

Yh I know that it is. But in end of the day I'm your wife. And I can't see you with someone else. Since we got married. I don't think so a  minute even" you talked to me properly. All the time you just fight with me for little little stuff and when things comes to sort out. You leave to meet your friend. I feel like" I'm some show piece whom you are keeping here for name sake. Other than that I've no importance in your life.  She cry feeling so frustrated with his attitude. Here she is trying her best to keep their relationship stable. But he is the one who don't give shit about it.

I'd already warned you  before marriage that I  don't want this marriage.  But you are the one who despite knowing everything "got married to me. So now when I don't  stay  with you   Don't talk to you properly. Then  why the hell do you have issue.

Fine ok I'd done  mistake. I should had stop this nonsense.  But it's not late either. Let's end this crap. I don't wanna stay  with man like you who doesn't bother about his wife and child "who were fighting with their lives and gave priority to his pain and suffering more than them. Let's get divorce. Just call your lawyer and end this nonsense. I don't wanna live with you. It's getting hard for me. Just fuckin put full stop on it. She screams pressing her temple with her hands and went inside the washroom banging the door  behind. Shivaay got statue on his place. And couldn't  utter a single word.  He don't know but he didn't like the way she asked for divorce. He agree. He doesn't like her. He have no feelings for her. But  when she asked for divorce. It somewhere hurted him. And he didn't like it at all.  He shakes his head and started walking around holding his head in tension.

Sir may I come in. A maid knock on the door bringing him back on the earth.  He look at her and scared her with his red eyes.  The way she wobble. It's clearly showed she is scared shit out of her and wanna run away. But still stood there gathering her strength.

What you doing here. And what's this in the tray??? He said rudely looking at the food  tray which she is holding on her shaking hands.

It's .... It's for anika mam. She  had asked me to get dinner for  her in room.

Room ?? Why would she eat in room. When everyone gonna eat outside.   Just take this  tray back. We gonna eat outside on dining  table. He orders maid " who obliged and about to leave. But anika came forward and take the tray from her hand

No I'll eat here.  Thanks for bringing it.  You may go now. She take tray from her and went towards sofa to sit.

What you doing. ??? Why did you order it in the room when everyone gonna eat outside.

I'm not going outside. I really don't wanna give chance to your family yet again to insult me. I'm ok in the room.  Saying this she remove the plate which maid had  kept it to cover the food and  about to eat it but shivaay  didn't let her and jerk it  away scattering all the plates on the floor along With food.

An. I said we are going to do dinner with family then we are doing.  Now let's go.

What you doing shivaay. Let me go. Just let me go. She try to remove his fingers from her wrist. But he didn't and dragged her with him outside.

Seeing anika with shivaay  grandma stopped eating and rolled her eyes  resting her elbows on the table folding her  hands.

Anika you came. Come have seat. Pinky immediately pulled chair for her and asked her to sit beside her and indicate  shivaay as well to sit with his wife " which surprisingly he obliged and set there near anika.

My whole mood have been spoiled. Grandma twisted her mouth leaning on the chair looking away.

It's fine i should leave.  I'm not hungry anymore. Anika stood up to leave " but shivaay held her hand and pulled her besides him which made shocked everyone and  grandma as well. Who didn't expect this move from her. She thought "he will ask her to leave as he will see see grandma angry. But here he pulled her beside him

Don't need to go anywhere. Just sit quietly and have your dinner.   Anika look at him and started fidgeting with her fingers in anticipation.

Have some shame shivssy. Have you forgotten what this girl had done in morning with your grandma. She literally raised her voice infront of  Me  and disrespected me which never someone did.  And you are making her sit with you and asking her to eat.

You was also not valid grandma.  I don't think so , she is maid of this house whom you gonna order and she gonna oblige it. Moreover" you shouldn't talked  about our baby.  It was so inappropriate and invalid.

Whatever I said it was true. This girl has  itself  taken his life. A little bit place which she had made In This house. It's all got finished along with the child. She killed him. You know and I know as well. And now Instead being angry with her . You are considering me wrong. That's  so ridiculous.  I didn't expect anything from you.

Mom is right. I think shivaay you should be angry on her not on your grandma.   Moreover her sitting with us is not right. Specially  for Gouri  my daughter in law who is pregnant.  and  anika  she has  lost her child recently. And you very well know that  who has miscarriage" she shouldn't  put her shadow on another pregnant woman. So better if she stay away from us.  Jhanvi said glaring anika who couldn't control her and stood up feeling so suffocated between these people. Who hates to the core.

Anns , shivaay whispered his name and raise his hand to grip her arm but before he do " she left from there in hurry.

Have you gone crazy Jhanvi. In which era you are living in. It's 21 century for god sake. And you still believe on this bullshit. I never expected all this from you. At least  being a mother " a little pain you should had understand  her. But no you  just joined hand with mom. I can't believe"  you guys can be this insensitive . Have some senses before blubbering all this.  God which mistake  I've done to bring that innocent in this house. It was better if I won't had married her with shivaay.  Saying this she pushed the chair and walked out  from there feeling hell angry on this pathetic family. Who have nothing but damaged brains which contain nothing.

Shivaay shakes his head and stood up looking at his family with disappointment.

You guys disappointed me. And specially you aunty. He pointed at jhanvi and left for his room

He comes In and open his mouth to take anika's name but suddenly he widen his eyes when he found blood near the scattered pieces of plate.  Fear engulfed him around. And he started looking in whole room for anika  calling her name. But soon his feet halted near the washroom door when he found it closed.

Anika come out. Come out from the bathroom. Let's talk. He says knocking on the door hoping she would answer him

Just leave me alone. I don't wanna hear anything. Just go away.

Anika I think you are injured just come out and let's talk.

Have you ever solved anything before between us that you will able to do now.  Just fuckin go away and don't come behind me.    Go to your family and enjoy your dinner with them. But just leave me alone. She hiccups making hard for him stay outside longer.

Anika stop this nonsense and come out from the bathroom. Otherwise I'll break the fuckin door. But when he didn't get any answer from another side except her crying" without any option he barged in pushing the door and got shocked finding her sitting under the cold water and her hand is bleeding profusely.

God girl .. what you doing. You will fall sick. He immediately run towards her and turn off the water.

Come let's go out. Let's go. He forcefully pick her up in his arms and brought her out.  He made her set on the sofa and started drying her long hair with the towel.

Have you gone crazy. You have gotten up from death bed before few weeks. And yet again you have set under the cold shower and Injured yourself as well. He scold her wiping water from her neck to shoulders. But she barely answered him and sitting there tucking her wet eyes on one place without moving.  He sighs and went towards the drawer and got  aid box out.

Who had told you to pick up the plate pieces. You should had called the maid for this. But yet again she didn't answer and set there silently without hissing for once despite him wiping her wound with cotton bud.

I'm talking to you anika. He raise his voice little gaining her attention. She flinch and look at him with teary eyes leaning her head one side.

I wish I should had died instead my baby shivaay. Then I guess all the problems would had been got solved and no one would had been suffering here specially you. Who would had got moved on easily in his life with malika and all problems would had been finished.  Hearing her he baffled and widen his eyes feeling something pang in his heart. But he couldn't utter a single word  and kept looking at her with pale face. Anika chuckle seeing his face having tears in her Jess and stood up to leave "but soon she's been pulled by him  and he started kissing her lips.  She try to resist.. but he  pushed her hand back pinning them  on the wall and   Pluck his tongue inside her mouth.  She so wanna shove him away. But like always his touch on her body made her week and she let him do whatever he feels like. Soon she's been carried by him towards the bed still sucking her  lips  and kept her there mercilessly. He broke the kiss and started removing his clothes along with her. She open her mouth to say something but he didn't let her and placed his mouth on her breast moulding it in his hands. She couldn't help but moan his name feeling his mouth travelling everywhere on her body and soon he take her under him and started thrusting into her faster and harder intertwining his hands with her Above her head. With each thrust he whispered something in her ear which made her  lost the ability to hearing  because of being tortured by him.

Shivaay she cry when he give her deep thrust  holding her hips. But instead stopping" it made him  beast more and he kept having sex with her till his heart didn't fulfil.  In end he lay down on the bed and pulled her in back hug  keeping his face near her hair.

Shivaay I i need money for baba. He wants you to lend him some loan.   Hearing her he open his eyes and  set up leaning on his arms.

So now you have started asking for money for your family after spending one night with me.  He chuckle making her widen her eyes hearing his words.  She  slowly set on the bed and look at him disbelievingly.

Shame on you mr shivaay Singh oberoi.... She  punched his chest and went inside the washroom leaving shivaay feeling little guilty for saying her these words

After meeting "she bid bye to her boss and decided to leave direct for home. As it's already time of her departure. He offered her lift. But she refused to take it and decided to go on the texi "instead going with him. As she knows " If she went with him then her family will get one more chance to insult her ..which she really don't have capacity to get. So better" she be careful in everything. She comes out from the restaurant and book her texi on Uber. Whicn showed " it gonna be there in few minutes. While waiting " she is scrolling her phone ' when her eyes landed on her husband" who is going with malika and not only that. Both of them are laughing. Seeing him laughing and happy with another woman broke something inside her. Since they got married. They barely talk to each other. And if they do. Then he always ended up fighting with her. Never they shared few words of love. It was always a compromised relationship. Which never had any comfort zone. Since they got married he just used her for sex only. Rather than that no any other emotions have been shared .. which she could remember. She sighs on her own thoughts and look towards the road. Seeing her texi coming she got ready and left from there instead burning her heart seeing him with someone else.

At home

She reached nearly 07 and found everyone are drinking their evening tea. Seeing them laughing she found it odd. As she thought because of morning fiasco " they would be sour. But nothing seems like here.

Whats happening here ,?? She whispered seeing sweets plate laying in middle of the table and not only that gouri ",her sister in law is blushing and grandma is caressing her hair showering Her so much love. Which she barely does to anyone.

May your child and you stay healthy. Take care of you and your child specially. I don't want you to be careless like others. Don't take some bad person influence. Hmm she said glaring anika with her eyes which showed her that she is talking about her no one else.

Gouri are you alright??? Anika move towards her while asking " but grandma stopped her way coming in middle.

You have recently lost your child. And I really don't want your black shadow fall over gouri. I want her child to be healthy. Can't take chance to let your hands lay on her. Hearing her insensitive words " anika's eyes filled with tears and she bend her head down holding her bag strap tight in her hand. She had thought that she will say sorry to her. And will apologise to her for her morning behaviour. But seems like this woman really don't deserve it at all. Whatever she said in morning "it was right. She won't bend down infront of her like that.

Congratulations gouri. I'm so happy for you. She simply smiles having wet eyes and walk out from there not feeling to be part of this family at all. Well how can she be part of this family " when her husband doesn't consider her as her wife. She sneers on her own thoughts and entered in the room. She kept her bag on the bed side and set on it rushing her hands towards her face feeling hell tired and helpless. She so wanna run away from this house and go there where no one could find her. But she can't do that as well. As She don't have any choice except living in this house where people hates her. Suddenly she startled when her phone started ringing.

Who's calling at this time .. she whispered and get her phone out from her purse. Seeing her father calling She frown. As she knows "he never calls her except if he needs something. But anyhow she pick up and kept on her ear.

Anika princess how are you??? You didn't call me since ages. Have you forgotten your father. Hearing his sweet coated voice she perplexed as he never talked to her like that expect when he needs something from her specially money.

I'm fine baba. Was just busy in something. You tell how are you???

I'm not fine darling. Now days I've been struggling in my business. Money is going more than I'm earning. It's feeling like I'm gonna lose my business soon. And on top of that I've took debt as well. Hearing him anika sneers knowing very well where this topic is leading.

Err I was thinking if you could land me some money just for few days. I promise. Soon I'll return it as soon as I get profit. Anika exhale the breath and spoke

An. How much you need???

Just around 200 grands. As anika heard this she chocked and widen her eyes.

Are you serious baba. I can't give you more than twenty thousand grands. Not more than that.

So ask shivaay he can give you. I guess it's just a little dust for him. Hearing him anika shakes her head and stood up bowling in anger.

I can't say him to give you money yet again. Already you didn't return last money " which you took from pinky aunty. And now you are demanding more. No i won't ask him. I can never. As anika denied' he grunts and changed his usual voice into rough hoarse.

It's just 200 grands. Not like millions of.. that you are shouting at me like this. I will fuckin return each and every penny of your husband as I'll be stable. don't worry. But right now you gonna ask him and that's final. And if you didn't then remember one thing your mom is with me. And many things can happen in this house with her. Saying this he cut the call leaving anika baffled on her place. She is feeling so helpless and scared on the same time for her mother. If she didnt get money then her ruthless father will rip her mother's skin off. Which she can't afford to let it happen so now only one Option left snd that's asking shivaay. which she really don't wanna do at all. She held her head and set on the bed holding her head in tension. 

After sometimes

She is fixing the bedsheet of her bed. When  shivaay comes there. Seeing her there he didn't say anything and  directly went to the dressing room to get his night suit not before throwing his jacket on the bed "which she was fixing.

Foe god sake ' can't you see that I was fixing it. Why the hell you threw your jacket here. She rolls her eyes picking up the jacket folding it properly. Shivaay grit his teeth and grasp  her arm in his hand pulling her towards him

Don't shout at me.  I hate people who does that.  And I guess you know it very well. Anika sneers and pulled her arm back from his hold glaring him.

I know you better than anyone else  mr oberoi.  Whom you like and whom you hate. She pulled her arm back from his grip and went towards dressing room following by him

What do you mean by that. He pulled her yet again toward him holding her  elbow

I'm talking about malika. You just like her only.  Her company her jokes. Her everything. Except her you don't like anything else  in this world. And doesn't bother you if someone dies or stay  alive.  Isn't. She says passing him tight smile  and took her arm back from his hold. 

It's nothing like that. She is my friend and ....

Yes friend with whom you spend whole day. Don't you.    Saying this she kept the jacket in cupboard and come out without letting him to say to her.

I was with   her because we had meeting. That's all. Stop assuming things like this. Moreover why do you care  "whom I like so much and whom not. After all our relationship is nothing but a compromised.

Yh I know that it is. But in end of the day I'm your wife. And I can't see you with someone else. Since we got married. I don't think so a  minute even" you talked to me properly. All the time you just fight with me for little little stuff and when things comes to sort out. You leave to meet your friend. I feel like" I'm some show piece whom you are keeping here for name sake. Other than that I've no importance in your life.  She cry feeling so frustrated with his attitude. Here she is trying her best to keep their relationship stable. But he is the one who don't give shit about it.

I'd already warned you  before marriage that I  don't want this marriage.  But you are the one who despite knowing everything "got married to me. So now when I don't  stay  with you   Don't talk to you properly. Then  why the hell do you have issue. 

Fine ok I'd done  mistake. I should had stopped this nonsense.  But it's not late either. Let's end this crap. I don't wanna stay  with man like you ,who doesn't bother about his wife and child "who were fighting with their lives and gave priority to his pain and suffering more than them. Let's get divorce. Just call your lawyer and end this nonsense. I don't wanna live with you. It's getting hard for me. Just fuckin put full stop on it. She screams pressing her temple with her hands and went inside the washroom banging the door  behind. Shivaay got statue on his place. And couldn't  utter a single word.  He don't know but he didn't like the way she asked for divorce. He agree. He doesn't like her. He have no feelings for her. But  when she asked for divorce. It somewhere hurted him. And he didn't like it at all.  He shakes his head and started walking around holding his head in tension. 

Sir may I come in. A maid knock on the door bringing him back on the earth.  He look at her and scared her with his red eyes.  The way she wobble. It's clearly showed she is scared shit out of her and wanna run away. But still stood there gathering her strength.

What you doing here. And what's this in the tray??? He said rudely looking at the food  tray which she is holding on her shaking hands.

It's .... It's for anika mam. She  had asked me to get dinner for  her in room.

Room ?? Why would she eat in room. When everyone gonna eat outside.   Just take this  tray back. We gonna eat outside on dining  table. He orders maid " who obliged and about to leave. But anika came forward and take the tray from her hand

No I'll eat here.  Thanks for bringing it.  You may go now. She take tray from her and went towards sofa to sit.

What are you doing. ??? Why did you order it in the room when everyone gonna eat outside. 

I'm not going outside. I really don't wanna give chance to your family yet again to insult me. I'm ok in the room.  Saying this she remove the plate which maid had  kept it to cover the food and  about to eat it but shivaay  didn't let her and jerk it  away scattering all the plates on the floor along With food.

An. I said we are going to do dinner with family then we are doing.  Now let's go.  

What are you doing shivaay. Let me go. Just let me go. She try to remove his fingers from her wrist. But he didn't and dragged her with him outside.

Seeing anika with shivaay  grandma stopped eating and rolled her eyes  resting her elbows on the table folding her  hands. 

Anika you came. Come have seat. Pinky immediately pulled chair for her and asked her to sit beside her and indicate  shivaay as well to sit with his wife " which surprisingly he obliged and set there near anika.

My whole mood have been spoiled. Grandma twisted her mouth leaning on the chair looking away.

It's fine i should leave.  I'm not hungry anymore. Anika stood up to leave " but shivaay held her hand and pulled her besides him which made shocked everyone and  grandma as well. Who didn't expect this move from her. She thought "he will ask her to leave as he will see see grandma angry. But here he pulled her beside him

Don't need to go anywhere. Just sit quietly and have your dinner.   Anika look at him and started fidgeting with her fingers in anticipation.

Have some shame shivaay. Have you forgotten what this girl had done in morning with your grandma. She literally raised her voice infront of  Me  and disrespected me which never someone did.  And you are making her sit with you and asking her to eat. 

You was also not valid grandma.  I don't think so , she is maid of this house whom you gonna order and she gonna oblige it. Moreover" you shouldn't talked  about our baby.  It was so inappropriate and invalid. 

Whatever I said it was true. This girl has  itself  taken his life. A little bit place which she had made In This house. It's all got finished along with the child. She killed him. You know and I know as well. And now Instead being angry with her . You are considering me wrong. That's  so ridiculous.  I didn't expect anything from you.  

Mom is right. I think shivaay you should be angry on her not on your grandma.   Moreover her sitting with us is not right. Specially  for Gouri  my daughter in law who is pregnant.  and  anika  she has  lost her child recently. And you very well know that  who has miscarriage" she shouldn't  put her shadow on another pregnant woman. So better if she stay away from us.  Jhanvi said glaring anika who couldn't control her and stood up feeling so suffocated between these people. Who hates to the core.

Anns , shivaay whispered his name and raise his hand to grip her arm but before he do " she left from there in hurry.

Have you gone crazy Jhanvi. In which era you are living in. It's 21 century for god sake. And you still believe on this bullshit. I never expected all this from you. At least  being a mother " a little pain you should had understand  her. But no you  just joined hand with mom. I can't believe"  you guys can be this insensitive . Have some senses before blubbering all this.  God which mistake  I've done to bring that innocent in this house. It was better if I won't had married her with shivaay.  Saying this she pushed the chair and walked out  from there feeling hell angry on this pathetic family. Who have nothing but damaged brains which contain nothing. 

Shivaay shakes his head and stood up looking at his family with disappointment.

You guys disappointed me. And specially you aunty. He pointed at jhanvi and left for his room

He comes In and open his mouth to take anika's name but suddenly he widen his eyes when he found blood near the scattered pieces of plate.  Fear engulfed him around. And he started looking in whole room for anika  calling her name. But soon his feet halted near the washroom door when he found it closed.

Anika come out. Come out from the bathroom. Let's talk. He says knocking on the door hoping she would answer him

Just leave me alone. I don't wanna hear anything. Just go away.

Anika I think you are injured just come out and let's talk.

Have you ever solved anything before between us that you will able to do now.  Just fuckin go away and don't come behind me.    Go to your family and enjoy your dinner with them. But just leave me alone. She hiccups making hard for him stay outside longer.

Anika stop this nonsense and come out from the bathroom. Otherwise I'll break the fuckin door. But when he didn't get any answer from another side except her crying" without any option he barged in pushing the door and got shocked finding her sitting under the cold water and her hand is bleeding profusely.

God girl .. what you are doing. You will fall sick. He immediately run towards her and turn off the water.

Come let's go out. Let's go. He forcefully pick her up in his arms and brought her out.  He made her sat on the sofa and started drying her long hair with the towel.

Have you gone crazy. You have gotten up from death bed before few weeks. And yet again you have set under the cold shower and Injured yourself as well. He scold her wiping water from her neck to shoulders. But she barely answered him and sitting there tucking her wet eyes on one place without moving.  He sighs and went towards the drawer and got  aid box out. 

Who had told you to pick up the plate pieces. You should had called the maid for this. But yet again she didn't answer and set there silently without hissing for once despite him wiping her wound with cotton bud. 

I'm talking to you anika. He raise his voice little gaining her attention. She flinch and look at him with teary eyes leaning her head one side.

I wish I should had died instead my baby shivaay. Then I guess all the problems would had been got solved and no one would had been suffering here specially you. Who would had got moved on easily in his life with malika and all problems would had been finished.  Hearing her he baffled and widen his eyes feeling something pang in his heart. But he couldn't utter a single word  and kept looking at her with pale face. Anika chuckle seeing his face having tears in her Jess and stood up to leave "but soon she's been pulled by him  and he started kissing her lips.  She try to resist.. but he  pushed her hand back pinning them  on the wall and   Pluck his tongue inside her mouth.  She so wanna shove him away. But like always his touch on her body made her week and she let him do whatever he feels like. Soon she's been carried by him towards the bed still sucking her  lips  and kept her there mercilessly. He broke the kiss and started removing his clothes along with her. She open her mouth to say something but he didn't let her and placed his mouth on her breast moulding it in his hands. She couldn't help but moan his name feeling his mouth travelling everywhere on her body and soon he take her under him and started thrusting into her faster and harder intertwining his hands with her Above her head. With each thrust he whispered something in her ear which made her  lost the ability to hearing  because of being tortured by him.

Shivaay she cry when he give her deep thrust  holding her hips. But instead stopping" it made him  beast more and he kept having sex with her till his heart didn't fulfil.  In end he lay down on the bed and pulled her in back hug  keeping his face near her hair. 

Shivaay I i need money for baba. He wants you to lend him some loan.   Hearing her he open his eyes and  set up leaning on his arms.

So now you have started asking for money for your family after spending one night with me.  He chuckle making her widen her eyes hearing his words.  She  slowly set on the bed and look at him disbelievingly. 

Shame on you mr shivaay Singh oberoi.... She  punched his chest and went inside the washroom leaving shivaay feeling little guilty for saying her these words
