DOOMSDAY

Manda took a red and blue color kid's t-shirt in her hold, as she got down on the bed. Her eyes are filled with tears, her lips are shivering slightly, her cheeks have already became warm due to the continuous cries while she placed her hand on that t-shirt. Her eyes went closed as she felt the love of her five year old Indrajeet, of who's the t-shirt belongs to. The tears flowing down from her cheeks, falls on the t-shirt and Manda quickly placed it near her heart. She imagine to embrace her little son like that.

"Amma..."

Her ears echoed with kid Indrajeet's call, the time when Indrajeet used to be hers too and not only of his Appa's. Manda took a heavy breath, her eyes still closed as she started crying again. Sulochana stood at the entrance of her room, placing her hand on the door. Today she looked different, the bright color sarees which she used to wear are now replaced by a simple peach color salwar kameez. Whatever jewelry and accessories she used to wear are all removed now, with her dark brown wavy hair plaited neatly. She took a sigh looking at the crying Manda and started moving towards her. She got down on the floor and placed her hands on Manda's lap, to gain her attention. Manda quickly opens her eyes and removes her tears from her cheeks, may be she didn't wanted to show her pain to anyone. Sulochana keep on waiting for her and Manda took her time to wipe her face completely. After a moment, Manda motioned her eyes towards Sulochana who was staring her continuously. Witnessing Sulochana in that attire gave a pinch of pain to Manda. She was looking that way, in which no parent would want to see their daughter as, in which Manda never imagined to see Sulochana as- the widow of her son. Manda's shocking stare got broken as Sulochana forwards her hand to wipe the newly formed tears from Manda's eyes.

SULOCHANA- your daughter is still there with you Amma.

Sulochana's soft voice made Manda to blink her eyes lightly. She witnessed Sulochana looking down at the t-shirt and have a light smile on her face.

SULOCHANA- and your son is there with you too, in your memories.

Manda hissed a moment and bite her lower lip, to control her emotions. Sulochana caresses the t-shirt lightly, her eyes didn't allowed the tears to fall. She has already cried her heart in front of Siya and now she has determined to not become weak in front of Manda and Vaibhav.

MANDA- Sulochana..

Manda placed her hand on Sulochana's head after which she rests her head on Manda's lap. She wanted to say many things to her daughter now, may be to give her strength, may be to face the upcoming life, may be to ask her to have patience. But not a single word came out of Manda's mouth and all she said was a whispered word.

MANDA- sorry..

Sulochana closed her eyes and experience Manda's touch on her head while Manda keep on patting her head lightly. Both the ladies went silent after that, they didn't felt that need to speak anything now. At a sudden, they got a disturbance in their silence as both of them heard some noise from outside. They heard Suvarna's voice, it seems that she is talking with someone or to be more specific with she is ordering something to few people. Manda and Sulochana turns towards the door with their confused expressions after which they turns to face at each other. Their confused eyes ask the questions about what is happening now at their place.?

.

Siya turns towards the door as she found the door getting opened abruptly and few men making their entry in the room. She immediately got up from her place and stood up on her feet, trying to balance herself properly. Siya witnessed the four people standing beside each other and in front of her, after which she witnessed Suvarna making her entry in the room. Siya's confused expressions became lightly different now as she found Suvarna folding her hands and having her smirking expressions on her face.
