AASHIYANA

~ASSUMING THE REALITY~

AUTHOR'S POV 

Both of them reaches to their respective homes, yohan reaches his home with lots and lots of thoughts running in his head... he just entered his house and going upstairs to his room when his mom stops him......

"Areyy yohan !! beta aa gaya tu .... kesi he siya"

"Yess mom, siya is good " he replied but in a sad tone, his mom was already engaged in some work so she didn't realized it

"Did you gave her the oranges?"

"No mom"

"Arey why !! " she turns towards him " I told you to give her without forgetting "

"Mom actually.." he was going to say something when priya comes

"Arey maa, siya ke sath tha... baki cheeze kese yaad rahegi ise,, kyu yohan?" she said teasing him {yohan's family really likes siya alot.. and priya treats her as her own little sister}

"Nahi bhabhi esa kuch nahi....umm...... come sit, i wanna tell you something"

"Kya hua beta kuch hua he kya? sab theek he na?" his mom asked

"Mom..i.. i just came to know today..."

"What beta?? tell us na?"

"Mom ....siya's parents died long ago... when she was just 11 years old" 

Both the ladies were shocked, they didn't imagined this, anubhav also came downstairs and listened this.. he was too standing silently with them

"what !! but how come she never told us?" his bhabhi asks him

"Mein hi samaj nahi paya bhabhi, mene uski diary dekhi thi... she didn't had a single picture with them as a grown up kid, she never mentioned anything about them.. i should have understood "

"Beta isme teri galti nahi he.. ho jati he insan ko galatfehmi.. me to us bachi ke bare me soch rahi hu, kese rahi hogi vo apne parents ke bina..." his mom spoke

"Exactly mom, she lives with her chachu and his family, and i doubt.. no i am sure they don't treat her well... i just feel so helpless, i can't even do something for her"

"Now when i think about it, she was always seemed so stressed, you know when last time you brought her home, i was showing her some dresses and she was drinking water at that time, suddenly her cousin ..what's her name...prachi , ya she called her and when siya saw the name on her phone her hands started trembling.. mene us time itna kuch socha nahi but now it seems like tum jo keh rahe ho vo sahi he yohan" priya said and were listening to her silently 

"We're still not sure but.. i mean kuch normal family issues bhi ho skte he right?" yohan's brother spoke

"Yohan,, beta tu kya soch raha he?" his mom asked looking at him

Yohan is just standing there silently absorbing all these things happening.

"I don't know mom, I don't know jo hum log soch rahe he vo sahi he ya nahi , I really wish esa kuch nahi ho.. Pr agar esa he na mom... to its wrong, very very wrong.. siya....no not only her.. no girl in this world deserves this"

They all were there in the hall assuming every possible condition, everyone was feeling tensed after knowing about her parents, they guessed about siya's uncle aunt's torture but they were not sure.. and the sad thing is that siya was facing much more than they ever imagined.

After a silence of couple of minutes, yohan speaks roaming his hands in his hairs with frustation

"Mom, i am tired now.. i can't think anything... I am going to my room"
