HIS REGRET

Chapter 7:

Ahaan Kashyap Kapoor:

Ah! my neck hurts actually my whole body hurts .I should definitely change this sofa if I don't want any back pain because I know Anvi is not going to let me sleep along side her yet and I'm not letting her sleep on this rigid sofa.

God I'm Ahaan Kashyap Kapoor ,I can't believe. Anvi used to tell me when were young that she would ask her husband to carry her surname if he experts her to carry his .Even that time we weren't officially together I kinda had hard feelings for her and I didn't mind carrying her surname along with mine .It showed that I was taken. I was proud that my wife was Anvi Kashyap now Anvi Kashyap Kapoor.

I open my eyes and look at two figures sleeping .Or should I saw one is sleeping and her mini me is staring at the ceiling .I know Anvi is not her biological mom, but Zoya behaves just like her .No one knows how Zoya came into her life including her own parents except Anvi. I can probably do some searching and find out but I want Anvi to tell me herself.

When Zoya notices that I'm awake she pretends to sleep. I don't know if she is scared or shy but whatever it is I want her to feel at home here and comfortable with me. So, I get up and slowly make my way towards her and call her softly because I don't want to wake her mother up ,she seems to be really tired. When she knows she can't pretend anymore she turns towards me "What?" she asks me."Do you want to go out?" I asked her. She nods getting up moving towards the bathroom.After few minutes she returns saying "Let's go".

Anvi Kashyap Kapoor:

What's the worst sound you know ,that's my alarm .I don't know how I always end up choosing the worst ringtone. I don't know if it is the alarm fault or mine but I don't care. When the alarm didn't go off ,I reluctantly woke up .I see my surrounding that's when I realised the mess of a life I have to live .I don't exactly remember much about yesterday .I was in a complete daze .

Zoya was not in the bed ,I guess she would be down anyway she is more familiar with the Kapoors than I am. So I tried to not stress about it. Yesterday when I spoke to her about this she didn't say anything much, she said she was okay with all the changes but I don't think she is when I myself am not .

The clock read it was around 8:30 sighing I get out of the bed and got ready. I don't think I would be able to go to office so I wore a simple Kurti. I would have worn a saree but I really don't know how to wear it. Its not like I have not tried but it just never worked out so I gave up it a long time ago. I went downstairs. The site in front of me shook me to core .I guess Zoya meant it when she said she is ok with this marriage. She is even smiling at the " Kadhus uncle"-Ahaan.

All the members are watching Zoya and her antics as if it's the most important thing to do. When Krithika aunty saw me she smiled warmly at me .I tried to return it .I have nothing against them,I only hate their eldest son .I stayed at a very safe distance from the kapoors though my parents are friends with them. I didn't want to be anywhere near Ahaan.So I don't really know them .Now he is my so called husband.I can't avoid him now, all my "I have work excusses" is not going to work anymore. Controlling my irritation I walked towards them.

Vansh looked at me and patted the place next to him on the sofa .Vansh is a good friend .We used to be classmates. After things ended with Ahaan ,I started to push people around me and he was one of them. I regret doing that ,I reached out to my other friends but I never tried to reconcile with him. I gave him a genuine smile and sat beside him. "Beta ,did you sleep well?"Krithika aunty asked me to which I just nodded.

" Beta, the breakfast is ready,can you make anything sweet as your first rasohi ,after that Ahaan would take you to your parent's is that ok with you?" Krithika aunty asked me.

Before I could reply Zoya being Zoya started laughing loudly.I shook my head knowing what exactly what she is going to say.She completely avoided my head shake "Mom can't cook to save herself.When Druv mamu ate her fried rice he actually got admitted in hospital for a week" she said still laughing .Everyone started laughing around us. Ahaan who was drinking something chocked on it listening this.

Vansh beside me "I know my brother is annoying sometimes" I lifted my right eyebrow "Ok most of the times, but I really love him. Please spare him from your cooking" he whispered. I shook my smiling at him.

" Okay, so pehely rasohi is cancelled then "aunty said looking apologetically at me.

" Ok enough of making fun of my daughter . Let's have breakfast now " uncle said and got up. We had our breakfast .I really didn't speak much Thankfully Zoya had all of their attention on her which I was grateful. I could feel Ahaan's gaze on me but I really didn't return them .I already spoke to my lawyers about our divorce .Yesterday's decision was taken purely in an emotional state. I hate my emotions .Now I'm realising how big of a mistake I have done.Because of this I'm sure our parents are gonna have issues but do I care ,fuck no.I can't live with him like a happy couple making promises of forever and don't care about all his broken promises just because his lack of trust in himself. I'm not saying his insecurities are not important, it is of course important but like other normal couples who solve it by speaking he solved it by breaking me, breaking us. I don't really think I could forgive him for that. Even if I could I don't want to be with him, he symbolises a very happy phase of my life but along with it there are many horrible one which till date is ruling my nightmares .I don't want that,I for once want to selfish for myself.

My thoughts were broken when Krithika aunty said that Ahaan would take us to my parent's ."No aunty ,we don't stay with my parents so all our stuff is in my apartment.We can manage " actually I would give anything to stay away from your son I didn't add that .Krithika aunty frowned at me and said" first thing stop calling me aunt because I'm your mom and second Ahaan is going to stay with you until you are settled here " she nodded to herself as if she is satisfied with what she said. "ji au...ma" I said nodded to her. I only pick battles that I will win. No one can win a battle with Krithika ma .Thank god she was not part of the business world ,she would have ruled it.

We finished our breakfast and went out .When I was about to get in the back seat ,"Do I look like your driver ,wifey." When I was about to argue ,I noticed Zoya watching us.I took a deep breath ,I can't argue in front a kid.Ahhh! being adult sucks.I closed the back door climber the front door.Ahaan had a smug smile on his face ,I just want to beat the smile from his face more than anything.When he asked for my address I entered it in the GPS.I don't want Zoya to remember Ahaan's and my first interaction where I would beat the shit out of him and I also have a feeling that she started liking him which is definitely not good because if she asks me to stay I would stay without thinking about anything. There is nothing more important than her happiness .Even my selfishness can not win over her happiness.
