I had not realised when the entire day had passed with papa and Rudra, so I had decided to head towards the kitchen but mumma and Bhabhi ushered me out saying "You should go and rest". So now I just heading towards my room.
I walk inside my room as my eyes fall on the pictures that are stuck on the wall with lights all around it. I look at them with a sad smile, there was pictures with Reyansh's family and my family; some single pictures with Reyansh and.......... My breath hitched as I walked closer to them, a picture with my friend Aradhana who I miss dearly. The only friend I had apart from Reyansh; she had joined after me. She was the only one who had approached me and became my friend. But for me she was more like my sister.
I want to meet her, but she is in US and has been so busy in the hospital she was needed at, that I have not been able to contact her. The last time I spoke to her was a month ago.
Alongside the pictures, my eyes trail beside towards the mirror; I look at my bangles and perfumes that are still there. A faint smile lurking on my lips as my eyes shine reliving the memories I had. I looked over at the white couch which complimented my cream room, the fluffy blanket still placed there.
I still remember the sleepless nights I used to have because of exam stress. Most of my nights would be spent here with my fluffy blanket, wrapped up like a burrito and head buried in either books or the laptop.
However the smile faded as I saw the wedding frame of me and Dhruv placed upon the table, I was instantly pulled back to reality. The happy thoughts fading and negatives ones arriving. The demons returning. I could feel myself shudder.
After this what was gonna happen? What was Dhruv going to do?
I hurriedly walked towards the door, closing it. I slumped down on the floor as thoughts went wild.
I need to think positive, maybe he will just have a normal conversation with me, he won't hurt me like yesterday will he?
"What a fool Meera, what a fool", a chuckle of mockery left my mouth, I am tired.
"These stupid fucking tears. I JUST HATE MYSELF. I AM JUST A BURDEN ON EVERYONE! I AM A KALANK ON MY FAMILY"
(Kalank - blemish)
The tears leave my body, I get up wobbling as I lock the door; heading towards the bathroom.
WARNING: SUICIDE ATTEMPT
"Maybe I should die, maybe if that happens; no one will suffer. I am the root of the problem."
I open the tap, filling up the bathtub with water. Without discarding my clothes, I lay in the water as it is slowly filling up. My tears getting mixed with the water.
That's it my dear. You are finally doing the right thing. The demons that are eating my mind spoke up.
Your husband, Reyansh, your family, will be the happiest. They don't need you anymore.
