What if...??

12: Confession

"Family? huh." Mockingly she said, "Family! seriously Sara di FAMILY? Do anyone of you know the meaning of that word?" By this time her anger reached its peak. "Family just doesn't only live or eat together. It doesn't sabotage each other's happiness due to selfishness, it doesn't differentiated between one another." Last line eyeing towards her mother.

Shivina bewildered after listening to Priya secretly called Akshay and asked him to come home as soon as possible.

"What is happening Priya? Why and what are you accusing us of?" Meera asked.
"Ok, so let me get this straight Maa, am I your daughter?" She asked.
"Why are you asking this all of the sudden, you know the answer already." Meera countered, she feared the truth might be too harmful.
"Sandy, Maitri I am so sorry because of me you couldn't get father's love. As I am not your real sister and Maa adopted me against his wish, Sara di why don't you tell them the truth?"

"What are you saying, Pri di? And no matter if you are my real sister or not you always sacrificed your happiness for us, and I love you no matter what." Sandy said, tears flowing down her cheeks but she ran and hugged Priya tight, tears also started flowing down Priya's cheeks.

Meera and Sara stood rooted to their place, breaking the hug Priya continued not completely crying, "Why Maa why? Why did you wanna hide the truth? Am I that bad? Why did you never left him after everything? Why did you keep choosing him over me again and again? Why couldn't you trust me for once? Not even you Sara di?"

"It's not like that Priya, I love you very much, but-" Sara began to speak.
"There is no but's in love Sara di." Priya said bitterly cutting her midway.

Akshay entered the house and saw the grim look on everyone's face, tears flowing down from everyone's face. He ran towards Shivina and asked her what happened who briefed him about the situation, leaving him horrified.
He went and hugged Priya tight and whispered that he love him without any if's and but's.

"Priya, child, please try to understand I trust you, I really do." Meera said.
"Then why did you not tell me the truth about Ishaan. And talking about Ishaan, how could you asked help from him and didn't even thought about informing me?" Priya screamed.

"I am so sorry Priya, I was very scared when I got to know I am pregnant and papa promised to find a suitable groom for me and look he found Varun who accepted me with the child." Sara said while wailing.
"Varun! Do you really think he is good? HE BLOODY TRIED TO KILL MY HUSBAND SARA DI. And MAA YOU PROTECTED HIM, YOUR HUSBAND EVEN AFTER KNOWING HIS SHADY DEEDS, YOU GAVE POLICE FALSE STATEMENT AND DUE TO THAT MY HUSBAND AND HIS FAMILY COULDN'T GET THE CLOUSER THEY DESERVED." looking at their shocked faces she continued, "Yes everyone, Maa gave a false testimony and saved Mr. Sood on the day of Di's wedding or I may say Dad's accident no actually MURDER." Priya finished.

"Is it true Bua? Whatever Pri di just said, is it all true? You helped Mahendra Sood?" Shivina demanded.
"I am so sorry Shivi, Priya I am so sorry. He blackmailed me that if I won't give the statement in his favor he will not help Sara." Meera said hoping they'll understand her but deep down she realized the sin she committed.

"So you accept that you helped sir to cover up his work, huh? Well that's great, you actually gave me another reason. Ok but tell me why you chose to save and help Varun even after knowing that he help sir and moreover you chose a criminal over my husband my Ram the man who treated you like his own mother? Why Meera Sood, why?" Everyone startled hearing her ice cold tone.

"I am sorry Priya, I thought to save Sara's marriage then. I am really sorry, I never thought of hurting Ram." She begged.

"Thankyou for letting me know that you didn't even thought about me then. It clearly seems that neither me nor my husband is important to you. So it's settled then, you won't hear from again. Thankyou." She paused, but Meera interrupted her "Priya please-" only to get interrupted in return,
"I am not finished yet, please let me complete. Maitri you are my sister and it hurted me like hell when I got to know that Neeraj was cheating on me that too with you and you both are married, even at that time rather than confronting you she asked me to be happy for you, but any ways even though you all at some point chose everyone over me I can't ignore the love you showered and the warmth you all gave, and I am grateful that you adopted me and made me who I am, so thankyou for everything and I am forever grateful for that but at the same time I can not ignore the fact that you all chose each other over and over again, and hurt Mr. Kapoor, even risked his life. So I am sorry but this marks the end of our journey together. I can not forget the memories but I'll learn just to live with that. Goodbye." Saying that she turned around and left not a single drop of tear left her eyes, while every face present cried rivers.
