Oh my matha,What are you doing here? Shakti turned his head listening Pinky's snarling. There Anika was standing holding baby in arms.

Anika. Shakti gasped seeing Anika there.

I'm asking you, What are you doing here?!.Oh my matha, don't tell me you have arranged the gold I had asked. Oh, but it's not seem like that.Pinky said sarcastically looking here and there shielding her eye with hand.

Pinky can you stop it for God's sake. Shakthi said annoyed,of his wife's behavior. Pinky Tched hearing shakti's words. Don't you have bit of shame to stand in my door step with your baby like a beggar.

Pinky enough is enough. Don't cross your limits. She is your daughter-in-law. Think twice before speaking a word to her.
Shakthi shouted losing his temper.

What daughter-in-law...big daughter in-law. Tell her to give the gold as they promised, then I will welcome her inside my house spreading red carpet. Now ask her to leave
Pinky shouted back.

What the hell is happening there?!
Shivay roared standing in steps. Why are you all shouting?! And you why are you standing there still. Looking at Anika. Go and put baby in bed. Shivay said.
Pinky's mouth hung open listening shivay's words.

Shivay are you out of mind or what?, Why are you telling her to come in.
Didn't you sent divorce notice to her, now what Happened?! I'm warning you shivay Don't fall for her innocent looks.she is a gold di...

Can you please stay out of my life, mom?,I knew what I am doing. I'm not a kid,I'm thirty and I am mature enough to handle/take decision in my life. So, please. Shivay said annoyed of her interference in his life.

Pinky stomped her foot in the ground listening shivay's words.

Come inside beta. Don't mind her. Shakti said warmly looking at Anika completely ignoring his wife who is about to burst at any moment. Anika was standing with tears not able to decide what to do. Was it a right decision to come here again?!
Before two years, she was standing in the same place with the same fear but then she had hope. She hoped her husband will change, that's how seen things happen in movies and novels. At first, all male lead will hate his spouse, then gradually they'll fall in love with them. They  lived happily ever after.That's how she thought her life would be when she married to shivay. She waited for the day of him to fall in love with her like she did with him, but the day didn't came, instead a day came when he kicked her out of his life making her realize that's all happen only in fiction.
Now she's standing in the same place without having any hope and expectations, with a baby in arms.
A known devil is better than a unknown angel.
Anika clutched her baby tightly and stepped inside.
