This all turns out to be a big mess. Something so small is now have become volcano invading every corner of our lives. What's the way out ?! Isha silently worked on her laptop as Oishani prepared food for us. We three were hungry and had no intention to go empty stomach. I didn't know how my life will take me but now that I have loving family, I don't want to leave this matter behind.

Maybe I can leave my amnesia alone?

Work for future and safety of my love??

"I will be leaving early tomorrow morning." Isha announced.

"But you just visited me." I stated.

"I know. It's important that I don't miss my attendance. I just got into last year of my course. You both need to take care of your lives as well as my nephew's. Whatever I know, I conveyed it to you. Am I still held responsible or seen as culprit?." Isha questioned which made me uncomfortable. I doubted my sister, which isn't common in our family. After all I am my parents son.

"Don't beat yourself over it brother. We all are victims of mental health and love." She said making me smile. I hugged for the longest time possible. Tears ran down my cheeks indicating how sorry I was to think about my own sister. Oishani sat beside me with a face, which is well enough for us to understand her worry.

"I need to meet Shubam." Oishani said. I denied but she being stubborn ass did not care for me.

"You need to leave her alone brother. She's needs a closure." Isha suggested but I know how cruel that asshole can be.

*****************
Oishani looked around the room for Shubam, who promised to meet her in the conference hall. Once familiar place now haunts the mind of the person who imagined her parents in the same room. Taking a seat in the far right corner of the room, she looked around to find a wall full of books filled in it. Curiosity got the best of her and Oishani touched every book present in it. The cabinet looks old with dust and unused books.

It seems shubam was only interested in things which will fetch him money.

'Sweet December'

She opened the book which was hidden between many known authors. Oishani had no idea why her parents will include something like this between their scientific books.

'To the girl who loves books and adores them. If you find this my dear little girl, know that we are dead and waiting for you to be discovered.'

Oishani stood holding the book in her hands. It's as if they were speaking to her through these words.

'If someone other than my little girl is reading this book, know that you are end is near. She will find out the truth no matter how much you try to deny. The end has begun with you reading these words.'

Immediately she pocketed the book in her bag. Not Daring to read further she walked and sat down at far end of the room waiting for the person who destroyed not only her husband's life but her parents as well.

"Well... you are back?." Shubam questioned to which Oishani just smiled.

"I don't want to waste the time. Let me get this straight." She started.

"I want to divorce Varad and take custody of my child." She announced a decision which is going to cost.

"Reason?." He questioned.

"This is my company. Mine to sit and rule. Marry me, own my child and I will see that every allegation and stipulation around you is gone. It's a win-win situation for us." Oishani spoke holding her head high.

"Are you serious? I don't believe you! Come on! Even if he divorces you and give the custody of your child to us when we get married. What guarantee will I have that you won't backstab me and get back with him? I am not that dumb to accept your reasons or proposal!." Shubam laughed loudly. She looked at him with same smile which scared the hell out of him when he used to tease her.

"We can have a baby of our own. Irrespective of the gender, it will be head of this company. 57% shares to our baby and rest divided between you, me and my son." Oishani spoke like a bussiness woman with no emotions. For a moment shubam was serious, he didn't know Oishani had it planned out to make him agree. On the other hand she smirked at his weakness,one he always wanted since the moment he held his eyes for her.

"You are willing to be my wife in all senses? For what? For this company?." He asked.

" Yes. I don't have any one to share my life with except my son. The one who can't understand what's going on and the person I am living with doesn't remember about us. It is quite frustrating to live life like that. With you atleast I can be a woman of my desires and at the same time have my way around this bussiness. I seem to recognize your persistent proposals all these years." Oishani spoke in a stern tone which made him think about her.

"So.. you want to get married huh? You think I won't recognise your plot?." He smirked getting up from his seat.

"I only proposed a deal which is beneficial for us both. If I had to play you, I would have done it some other way." She said. Shubam cornered her in her seat and smirked.

" Kiss me." He asked looking into her eyes.

"Only after you sign the deal." She suggested.

"Psst! Such a liar!." He said.

" I am still married. If i need to get out of it. I need to be loyal." She said pushing him away.

"What do you suggest now then?." He asked.

"Sign the deal." She spoke.

"I will make one. We will meet at hotel for it to finalize.. with a kiss." He replied and she smiled.

**********
Oishani stood outside her house with long face. She did what she felt was right and for that to work. Varad needs to leave her and Idhant.

"What happened?." He asked as soon as she entered their home. She looked around with teary eyes. Idhant jumped on his mom and pulled his dad by shirt to stand beside him. He made both of them dash their foreheads, giggling and laughing at his own antics. Varad made him get down and helped his son to play with Legos so that Oishani can get time to freshen up.

"So.. what was your conversation about?." He asked.

"I asked him to marry me." She said. Making Varad drop his hands from her. His world stood still and he didn't know if what she told was part of a plan or she is actually willing to do it to end this nonsense?
