vows we exchanged

chapter 3

I didn't know for how long I kept crying like that until a car knock was heard. I came out of my thoughts as a figure came out of the car and came near me.

I recognised the figure as my devil who could neither kill or leave me in peace.Before I could react I felt my right check sting

Slap!!

"Dad" my voice showed my anger. He doesn't have any right to hit me. "Oh!So you remember? You remember that you have a father? I am so pleased to see my daughter again taking a bullshit decision." his voice sounded broken but I didn't care.

"My God!!! How happened to you Dad? you sound caring." I was surpised to see his sudden care when he can't even know what I am going through now. " I always cared for you Jessica, its you who didn't see it"

I laughed a humourless laugh. I think this angered him that he held my wrist in a tight grip dragging me towards the car. "Dad stop!!!" He didn't listen and threw me into the car . He entered the driver's seat and started driving.

Why did my life turn into a living mess? No one could understand my internal turmoil. This man only cares about his family and respect. I just wish my mama was alive, I want to rest in her lap and cry my heart out. But fate is always cruel upon me.

Car was parked in my jail no sorry home. It is grandly decorated with lights and flowers. I would havve appreciated the work if I was in a different case. Dad opened the car door and dragged me towards the house. I could hear sobs so I turned to see who it was only to get disgusted. I also get disgusted to see that person's face which turned my life hell.

Dad dragged me to my room which is almost empty because they shifted most of my things to the apartment my so-called husband lives."So now what? I couldn't help but question him.He rubbed his face before answering "What do you want me do?  He asked in a pleading tone "I want Vamsi,ple-please" he huffed in annoyance. I was about open my mouth but he slapped me again.

I couldn't help the sob at left my mouth. Holding my now stinging cheek I met his gaze only to find tears in his eyes. Suddening he hugged me making me off guard. We both sobbed in eachother's embrace.

After what felt like enternity Dad whispered in my ear "The only name you should be thinking now is Moses."

"Never" was my cult answer " You will get used to it" with that he broke the embrace.

He turned towards the door at starting leaving the door when disgusting face two came near the door "Dad" her voice sounded concerned when I couldn't help but roll my eyes.

"Lock the door,tomorrow we will bid farewell to your sister." she opened the mouth to protest my dad held his palm cutting her protest. With that dad left the room.

"Jessi"

"Get lost"

"Akka"(elder sister)

"I SAID GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM HERE!!!" with that I slammed the door shut allowing her to lock the door and fell on the floor sobbing.

I woke up to the sound of the door opening. My eyes met the gaze of Divya. " What now? I asked feeling bored of her fake concern face. "Mama told me to get you ready."
"For what my lovely sister?" I asked irriated but I wonder what bought glow in her face.

"Bava ( brother in law) said he has urgent work so yesterday night he requested dad to shift to Hyderabad today itself." so this is the reason dad told he will get rid of me today.

"How much time do I have?" I asked absentmindedly closing my eyes.

"1 hour" this made my eyes snap at her." I have too much time,isn't it? I asked sarcastically."Dad told me to wake you early but I thought you needed some time to sleep as you slept late yesterday"

"So that I be scolded by dad oh yeah I am the bad girl always right" rage was flowing in my nerves. "I didn't mean like that Akka."

"I don't have energy to argue with you" with that I stood up and allowed her to decorate me as a playdoll which I am now. Played by my father.

After getting ready, they made me sit in the living room waiting for the things to be loaded.oh God!! What happened to my Vamsi. I can't help but think about him.

My father who was talking in the phone ended the call and came near me "Moses said that he had to urgently go so he told the driver to drop you in the apartment. He will come home by the time you reach there". As if I care.

As dad said I reached the apartment by evening. I couldn't stop myself from being shocked. This is the apartment I planned to buy and stay with Vamsi. I had to control my tears thinking about him. Why did he leave me like this? I hurriedly went inside the bedroom. Reaching the room I looked at the wall beside the window where Vamsi craved my name with so much love when the house was in construction. I couldn't stop the tears anymore looking at my name.

I was turning around to sit on the bed when two stop hand holded my waist keeping me in position. I felt soft lips against my cheek.

This broke my trance of crying. Using my hands I broke the embrace and gave a hot slap on my so-called husband's face.

The impact caused his head to turn left.After recovering from the shock his eyes met my and I bet you could see tears in it.

"DON'T DARE TOUCH ME!!" I yelled on the top of my lungs. I could see shock and hurt maybe in his eyes.
