A great beginning or a good ending?

Chapter-37
Khusi pov

Walking through the door, my eyes falls on the bed where he is laying down or probably sleeping.To get a closer look i walked towards the bed.

"Khusi! I think we should leave now, he is sleeping" The person who brought me here wishpered to me.

"Yes"! I let out a breathe i didn't realize i was holding.

Just when we were about to walk out, the person woke up.

"Who is there?"he graoned.

Rather than answering like a normal person would, insist I walked up to his side and stared till he opened his eyes.

"Ohh khusi!you shouldn't have come here in this condition" he said trying to sit up.

I wanted to help him but my hands were shaking so i kept it to myself. The other person in the room, the same nurse who assisted me helped him while I gazed at his condition. A broken leg, swollen face, bandages on hand and bruises on the corner of his face and maybe many more injuries my eyes can't notice right now. He held his stomach while adjusting his position with a painful expression which he tried to hide.

My heart sank seeing him in such a condition and that too because of me if it wasn't for of my stupidity everything would have been alright but then what happened was necessary for me to learn a lesson. Wasn't it?

I took a deep breath "Thank you and sorry for helping me" my eyes focused on the floor and hands tucking the corned of the white bedsheets.

"Sorry for helping you" he questioned to which my eyes raised to meet his ones.
"No! Sorry for not trusting you and troubling you and-" before i could complete my sentence he chuckled softly.

"Khusi i know what you mean. I was just teasing you" he pushed his messy hairs back with his hands.

"Ohh!but i genuinely meant what i said" i blinked owlishly.

"You can go now. I will call you when she  wants to go back" he asked the nurse to leave the room so i assume he wants to have a conversation with me.

He then looked at my way and immediately turned his head.
"Khusi first of all you don't need to apologise or even thank me for what i did for you. I misunderstood you and then tortured you. You even had to go through so much because of Taniya and Taniya did everything because i announced you as my wife in the office even without your consent.Huh! Actually i did everything without your consent to begin with. So what ever happened to you is only because of me" he confessed everything while staring at an anonymous painting hanging over the wall.

I don't know how to and what to answer, We both were wrong. I was wrong to prejudice him even without knowing him personally that he is a jerk who is a business minded and can do anything for money even if it includes kidnapping his own brother. When i got to know about the reason behind his behaviour and the marriage. After that i even stonewalled him when he tried to make things work. Maybe his way of doing things was a little wrong but his intentions were not when he warned me about Nivedita.

"I was wrong too" that's all i could speak out, the feeling of guilt making me uncomfortable.

He just looked at me for a brief moment and Shaked his head in amusement.

"Can i ask you something?" I dragged a chair from the corner and sat on it.

"Go ahead" he sagged towards the wall getting comfortable.

"Why are so sullen and desolate all the time, i have never seen you being friendly with anyone outside the work place. You have everything you want in life as in now i guess but I have never seen you enjoy your life at it's fullest" i asked him this question which was always in my mind. I don't except a meaningful or complete answer from him mainly because i have never seen him opening up to anyone. It's a good time to get things Off my chest.
