"What are you saying? Rhea and Samar are getting divorced?", I asked sipping the smoothie Divya made.
"I spoke to Rhea yesterday, she was totally heartbroken. Completely shattered", Divya said.
"I can understand, Samar was her everything. It must be terrible for her now"
"She even quit work for him. Now she has nothing left. She's literally begging him to take her back"
"That's horrible. You know what my mother told me when I was eighteen?"
"What?"
"She took me out on my birthday, got me my favorite ice cream and said 'Addy, it's now time to face the world and the people. I want money in your bank account because if you haven't met the right man, keep your head held high and walk out of the relationship, it's not worth it'. Her words still echo in my head"
"Oh my God Addy, your mother was so right. It's very important for us as women to work. Sometimes I really feel demotivated when I have to go for work, but now your mother's words are always going to be in my mind"
"She is really a ferocious lady. Sometimes my father and I get scared to tell her stuff", I said and gave a pause because there was no expression on Divya's face. She seemed to be a upset. "I think there is something else that you have to tell me. I don't think that you have called me on such a short notice to talk about Rhea and Samar"
"No, I am a little upset about Rhea. She loved him so much and now they are getting a divorce"
"Sweetie, if this has anything to do with you and Shivin, then trust me you are going on the wrong side. I know, you both are going to make a great couple"
Tears welled up in her eyes. She was trying to hide them but in vain. I was clearly able to understand that something was bothering her from inside.
"Sweetie, you know that you can talk to me right. I'm always there for you. Please tell me what is bothering you?",I asked comforting her. Now she started crying. I have never seen her in such a state. The Divya I know was always bubbly and chirpy. Seeing her like this was killing me from inside. I gave her a tight hug and patted her back. She hugged me back and would not stop crying.
"I am pregnant Adhya", she suddenly said.
"What?", I said breaking the hug. I was shocked. "Are you sure?", I asked her.
"Shivin is going to leave me now Adhya. We have never spoken about having a baby. And that to this soon, he's definitely going to break-up with me"
"So you didn't tell Shivin about this? Then how can be so sure about his reaction?", I said. "Shivin is not someone who runs away from responsibilities. He loves you Divya and moreover you guys are going to get married soon. He will never hurt you"
"How can you be so sure Adhya?"
"I know him well enough that I can say this about him. I think you should tell him this. It is very important to be truthful to each other in a relationship"
"I won't tell him and I won't make you tell him"
"Even if we don't tell him, he's going to find out in a few days. You can't hide a baby that is growing in you"
"What if I say that I don't what this baby?"
"Are you kidding me? Are you planning to abort the baby?"
"Then what else do I do? I don't want Shivin to leave me"
"Shivin is not going to leave you. I can't suggest you anything in this. As a couple you have to decide what's best for you. But if you ask me I will ask you to keep the baby. Wait what did the doctor say?"
