4-Humiliated
It's been a day since I killed my fiancee according to the village women.
I had been depressed the whole day not having energy to even stand up.The whole day I had heard the taunts of everyone especially Maa.
She was on a different level since yesterday, taunting me, cursing me and even hitting me sometimes.I did not even know the person, how could I kill him?
This question is repeating in my mind since I saw that blooded body and the events of yesterday came to view.
Not only was I blamed but they even wanted to burn me alive because of their rituals and beliefs. Though I was still not married, they think that I had almost become his wife.
Somehow my father and some of my relatives helped stop this nonsense at that time and I am thankful for this.
But I do not trust anyone, what if they find me and burn me?
No no no this cannot happen. I need to protect my self.
"Gudiya?" Baba's voice came while he entered my room and came to me indulging me in a warm hug. I put my head on his shoulder and just stared blankly at the surroundings of my room.
"Beta be strong, nothing will happen. I will not let anything happen to you".
He assured me but deep down I knew that Baba could not do anything in front of hundreds of people.
But still I believed his words, as this was the only support I had. Everyone is taunting my father, throwing bad words at him and this makes me even more sad.
Suddenly we heard loud noises coming from the Varanda of our house. Baba stood up and went away immediately but not before kissing my forehead.
I was scared as hell, what had happened now?
I stood up a little with fear and started advancing towards the door and while hiding I saw that the villagers from my village and another Village have gathered there.
"Kaha hai tumhari beti?"(Where is your daughter?).
They all asked in unison with anger-filled eyes and I shivered badly thinking about the consequences of this fury.
"Humne kaha hai pehle bhi humari beti se dur raho, uska is sab mei koi dosh nhi hai"( Stay away from her, nothing is her fault in this), said my father with determination but it was not enough to stop those people.
They held my father by the hands and threatened Maa while saying, "Hume woh ladki sounp do warna tumhare pati ki mrityu nishchit hai" (Give us that girl or your husband dies here).
I widened my eyes at his words and Maa was shivering due to fear.
Why god?why? This has nothing to do with my Baba . If I do not step outside now then they will surely kill my Baba.
They started to hit my father and I stumbled to the floor while my father had blood all over him. I tried to stand up and make my way towards my Baba but my steps were frozen. I was scared, so frightened.
Suddenly I felt someone pulling me from behind and dragging me outside I screamed but that person did not stop. After dragging me to the middle of the Varanda he stopped.
I finally lifted my tear filled eyes to see him and it was none other than my Bhaiya.
I looked at him with helplessness but he did not show an ounce of mercy over me and made me stand after which he threw me away to the floor in front of those men's feets.
"Aarav yeh kya kar rhe ho tum, woh tumhari behen hai"(What are you doing, she is your sister).
Baba yelled while laying on the floor with his eyes shot up and his body covered in dark red blood.
My tears were shredding more seeing the condition of my father. It is all because of me, I am unlucky. I should just kill myself now.
"Baba this girl should just die now, she is making all of us suffer" said Bhaiya and I held my head down while clutching my cloths and I knew at this point he was correct, I should die.
"Baba Hume maff kar di Jiye"(Please forgive me), I said to my father and those men held my hand while dragging me outside. All this while my father was yelling and screaming for them to stop but still he could not do anything.
They were dragging me and all the villagers were watching from there homes. I was now thrown on the muddy floor and all my clothes were tattered and dirty now. My dupatta had been thrown away while they were dragging me and I was covering myself with my hands .
My mind had gone blank and just as I had accepted my fate they made the bed of sticks and lit it up. I knew there was no escaping now so I just sat there while wondering if I would be happy in my next life or will it will be the same.
I screamed with pain when someone held my hair from behind and yanked me towards the fire.I stepped back impromptu from the heat of fire.
Slap
I was again thrashed to the floor after some man slapped me and I held my body while shivering. He again lifted his hand to slap me and I covered my face with my hands waiting for the painful hit. It never came.
After some time I looked up and saw that his hand was still in the air while some strong hand held his hand before he slapped me.
"What the fuck do you think you are doing?" That man asked dangerously to the person who slapped me. His voice was so angered that even that man started trembling a little.
"Who are you and why are you mendelling in our business" The villagers asked him and he stayed silent while his jaw clenched.
He punched the guy he was holding the hand of and the next second he was killed. Before I knew it my saviour held my hand and took me up bridal style while I just stared at his face remembering he was the same guy who came earlier to my house.
"Don't worry I will make sure they all die who had made you suffer so much".
