Dushyant, entered their room, saw ishita sleeping on  the bed, lying down diagonally, seeming like she had cried herself to sleep. 

Main hoon gumsum tu bhi khamosh hai


Sach hai samay ka hi sab dosh hai

His fingers slowly brushed her stomach, somehow his mind convinced, that there was no way she should  could be pregnant. He didn't realize how his nails was sinking into her stomach, the thought of him just hurting her, didn't came across his mind as something he just shouldn't do.

Dhadkan dhadkan ik gham rehta hai


Jaane kyu phir bhi dil kehta hai

 He walked away, starting to break and throw away everything on his way, maybe he was trying to punish himself, maybe he wanted to hurt her, nothing his loud screams could tell. 

Jee le zara, jee le zaraa


Kehta hai dil jee le zara
Aye humsafar, aye humnawa
Aa paas aa jee le zara


                                                            ***

Kavin was just mindlessly driving around the lonely roads of delhi in the dark, unstoppable tears with all of them just simmering together.

Hai zindagi mana dard bhari


Phir bhi isme ye raahat bhi hai
Main hoon tera aur tu hai meri
Yunhi rahe hum, ye chahat bhi hai

he saw a pole far away, when he accelerated the gear, as the speed moved up to 120, the car not finding a fixed way, shifting right and left, just the glance fixed at the final destination.

Phir dil ke dil se, pul kyu toote hain


Kyun hum jeene se itne roothe hain
Aa dil ke darwaaze hum khole
Aa hum dono jee bhar ke ro le

only for just one last meter left, suddenly, purvi's face came in front of him, and he put  a brake. His eyes fixed on the pole, as he teared down.

Jee le zara, jee le zaraa


Kehta hai dil jee le zara
Aye humsafar, aye humnawa
Aa paas aa jee le zaraa

Ishita, took out a knife from the kitchen drawer, her glance fixed on it, when she looked down her stomach, the knife slowly going down there, she closed her eyes, when she heard footsteps approach, as she quickly kept the knife back. when dushyant entered. 

"kya hua?" he asked, as he would usually, seemed like nothing had happened. 

"kuch nahi.." ishita played along too, with a usual smile of hers, as he passed one too, and ishita just walked out. 

"ishita..." he called her name, as she turned back, he had a straight face, his hands behind his back, he stood straight. 

"bacha ek mahina ka haina?" he questioned, as she nodded, suspecting what was he about to. 

"aur inn do mahine, DO MAHINE, main bahar raha hoon...tumhe toh pata hoga na iska yeh kiska bacha hoga.." the calm demeanor was starting to fade, as the repressed anger was coming out, with this unexpectedly psychotic sadness that he tried very hard to keep inside, with that smile of his, as ishita started to step back. 

(guys, basically imagine shah rukh khan in that boat scene when he had caught kiran, in  darr, when he wanted to marry juhi chawla....get it?)

He revealed the knife he was hiding behind,  as he started to come closer to her. 

"ishita...please ruk jao...mujhe bas ek baat jaani hai tumse...bas, ek, baat...please..." the demonicly moist eyes, were getting very pleading, as he tried to be somehow scarily persuasive, ishita was slowly trying to reach the main door of the house, but as much as she stepped back, the more forward he came. 

"ishita...please batado mujhe....YEH KISKA BACHA HAI!!" he exclaimed with probably the highest volume his voice had reached in his entire life, he was starting to lose it, the knife already being raised by him. 

"mujhe nahi pata dushyant....mujhe sach mein bilkul nahi pata..." attempted ishita to keep herself calm, replying softly, slowly walking to him. 

"nahi, nahi, aisa nahi ho sakta...ishita mujhe batao na, please...main, main kuch nahi karunga, promise, ishita please..." he requested, his knife still not going down. 

"dushyant, woh chaku rakh do please..." requested ishita, as he shook his head, not complying. 

"pehle mujhe batao..." his voice was still comparitively low, as ishita had reached the lock of the main door, as she unlocked it and stepped out immediately, as dushyant rushed to it, pulling it back open, while she pulled it back to close. 

only for his very hard push to open it, as he grabbed hold of her arm, she fell right onto the floor, and he shut the lock, of the main door. 

he sat very near to her, the knife so close to her throat, that it could slit it open in a moment, as she just shivered. 

"ishi, tum jaanti ho na main yeh karna nahi chahta hoon na....mujhe bas janna woh kaun hai...main tumhe kuch nahi karunga...trust me, please..." he requested, eyes as innocent as of a little child, as ishita was starting to cry. 

"mujhe nahi pata...sach mein...maine kuch nahi kiya..." responded ishita, as he was now mad, really mad, grabbing hold of her getting her so near to the knife, like he would slit her throat right now. 

"tujhe samajh nahi aa raha hai!" he exclaimed, as ishita was crying, frightened for her dear life. 

"bata kaun hai!" he commanded, as he had made a  very tiny cut on her neck already, which he was very scared of, as well as her. 

"i'm so sorry...i'm so sorry...main, main, abhi thik kardunga....main abhi aaya...tum yahi rehna, huh..." he assured, leaving, as ishita took one breath of relief, taking her dupatta, pressing on the wound with it. 

she mustered up some courage, and walked up slowly to him, he was finding the first aid kit, the knife still in his hand, as she just removed her dupatta and slowly tip toed to him. 

she tied the dupatta around his neck, immediately covering it and pulling it back, along with taking the knife. 

"hilna mat!" exclaimed ishita, as she threatened with the knife, he was clearly not very angry now.

"ho kya gaya tumhe! maine kaha na mujhe nahi pata yeh kisne kiya hai! kisisne zabardasti ki hai mere saath, mazak nahi hai yeh...mujhe bhi dukh hai, gusaa aa raha hai iss baat ka...par maine kaha kuch tumhe!" her emotions went through a roller-coaster of sadness, to anger, and to threatening in a matter of few seconds. 

"papa?" questioned dushyant, as they both knew he was the one.
