Megha's POV

I was enraged as I strode into our home.

" Jaan ...Jaan...listen to me....."

"Whatever you are thinking is wrong...."

" Please hear me out once"

I could hear Jeet pleading as he rushed behind me.

Hearing our loud voices, everyone gathered around.

" What is happening? Megha, what is the matter?" Acha queried

" Jaan, let's talk in our room....please"

But I was so angry that his begging never reached my ears.

" Will someone tell what is the problem?"

" Amma, while we were at the mall, we saw Abhi and Priya at a jewellery store"

Chettathi dropped  the bombshell.

Everyone gasped and looked at Jeet while I kept mum.

"So... what .... there may be a possible explanation, right Abhi?" Amma asked with trepidation

" When we called from the mall, Abhi had told us he was in a meeting"  Chettathi  further explained

Hearing this , accusing glances were thrown at Jeet but he was only staring at me pleading with his eyes.

" I knew this would happen eventually"

Everyone turned to look at Appachi in surprise

" Why are you all looking at me like that? I am saying the truth."

Then looking at Jeet, she continued,

" I don't blame you, Abhi, after all you also have many dreams. If you want to be with Priya then I will stand by you"

Jeet looked at Appachi apalled at her words

" What are you saying, Chechi?" Amma asked alarmed

" What is wrong in what I said, Veena. A  kid completes a family and because of Megha , our Abhi's family remains incomplete. Do you want that? The flaw is in Megha so why should our Abhi suffer ...."

" APPACHI..." a loud scream reverberated around the hall

We all turned to look at Jeet who was shaking in anger

" Stop all this nonsense.  You have no idea what you are saying" 

" Abhi...."

" Stop it,  Appachi.  Don't  test my patience"

"Abhi, you are raising your voice for HER"  Appachi asked while giving me a disgusting look

Before Jeet could reply , I interrupted.

"Wow....Appachi... I am impressed by your thinking. Is this just your idea or does Priya share the same"

Saying this I turned towards her.

" So Ms. Priya, care to tell me what you were doing with my husband?"

" Jaa..."

I held my hand up to stop Jeet from interfering.

" Come on Priya. We all are waiting "

" Megha.... I .... we ..." she started stammering

" Why are you nervous? Just tell us the truth. Did you know about what Appachi is thinking? Were you after my husband? Are you a home wrecker?"

My deadly voice quashed the whole room in silence while I saw Priya's eyes flash with anger at my last question.

" If Abhi himself comes to me, it is not my fault but yours"
