The adulterous affair

Episode 5 - Khushi finds out about Garima

"""Gupta's house"""

Khushi goes to her room and locks the door in a tensed manner. She was teary eyed thinking of the worst consequences. She remembers what she saw in Garima's room,

.....Flashback.....

She was cleaning Garima's room and there she found a packet gleaming when she took off the pillows. It was a condom. She was shocked to the core. She very well knew that her it wasn't her father's. Then who might have bought this in their parent's room? It couldn't be Payal either as it is her parent's room and she wouldn't have risked it. Tears formed in her eyes as she thought of her mother. Was she blamable? But she is too old though! And that too because of her father's condition it would be impossible. Could that be with someone else? Must she confront her mother? First she doesn't even know that it is her mother. She needs to confirm this though. Then she put it where it was and cleaned the other sides with deep thoughts. Then she found a bill in the dustbin before she was about to throw the trash. Her conscience was telling that it could be the bill involving this item. She took it out and saw the shock of her life. There were a few other household items and there were 10 packets of condom ordered. Her heart skipped a beat. She soon looked here and there and opened the wardrobe. She looked in the locker and found 6 other packets. She now got a clearer view of the bill and it was named after Garima. She heard a knock in the front door and knew that it was her mother. Must she ask her about this or not? The door is opened by Payal and Khushi decided not to confront her this time. She soon crushes the paper and threw the trash on top of it. She gets back to cleaning. Soon Garima enters the room sweating and panting and gives a shocked look to Khushi and gets inside the washroom quickly. Khushi knew what it was now.

She rushes to her room.

...........Flashback ends.........

She immediately calls Arnav about the same. She calls him only to find him cutting. Why is Arny ignoring her call nowadays?? Surely it isn't any client as far as she knows. She is the one who sets his appointment. What must be her next move? She was hell scared and thought of asking her father. Must she ask about this to her father or not?? Her heart told no and her mind told her yes. He might have seen this though! What if Garima would have done this in front of him taking advantage of his health as he couldn't speak? Anyway even if she would ask her fahter he wouldn't be able to say much. But she could discover it through his eyes though. It is her father! She can very well read his mood from his eyes and his face. She soon rushes to her father knowing Garima would not come out for at least few minutes. Shashi was already having tears forming in his eyes as he saw Garima panting when she came inside. She goes to him and discovers the same.

Khushi: What happened bauji...why are you crying?

Shashi saw this and was a bit shocked.

Khushi:Ahm...is it because of your condition?

Shashi nods.

Khushi:...Or is it because of amma?

Shashi saw Khushi and was appalled. He couldn't control himself and burst into tears. Khushi got her answer immediately after seeing his reaction.

Khushi immediately hugs him and cries her heart out.

Khushi(in tears): How could you handle this all alone bauji???? Since when is this happening?? Why did amma go in this direction?? Is it just lust that she wants?? Or should I not take this matter seriously? It's pity that you couldn't do this because of your situation. Is she doing this because of her situation?? She is doing this because she is missing all those stuffs? But why this many pac......

Khushi thought of not to tell her father on how she found out about her. She stops and wonders thinking if she missed it this much even in the worst case she couldn't afford so much packets. She remembers how she saw Garima came panting that day stating that a crow had stained her saree. She remembers how the other day she caught Garima talking to another person in a blushing manner over the phone. She recollects all incidents connecting to her suspicion. Yes! It must be it! She hears Garima open the bathroom door. She goes to her and smiles at her but inside she was breaking.
