"A woman's heart knows depths of pain and peaks of resilience."

Maya's POV

I looked at it not knowing if I should receive it or not, I looked around for Savita didi so that I could inform her but she was nowhere.

Keeping the vacuum machine down I received it.

"Hello."

I was about to speak when I heard the voice from the other side. My words got stuck in my throat hearing his voice.

Papa.

I clutched the receiver tightly feeling overwhelmed. I was so happy hearing his voice. I smiled and decided to speak when I realised I shouldn't. He will... cut the phone, or he.. he will get to know that I am here.

"Is someone there? Are you listening?" He continued to speak while I stood clueless of what to do and my heart screaming at me to talk to him and cry out.

I pressed my hand on the mic and spoke hoping that he won't recognize my voice.

"Hello, Sir."

I heard nothing from the other side and my heart skipped thinking that he got to know. He will cut the phone I won't be able to hear him anymore.

After a pause he spoke again. "Is Ekansh there?" He asked.

"No, Sir has gone out with Aarohi madam."

"Oh, ok."

I smiled controlling my tears and waited for him to speak something.

"Who are you? Are the new maid?" He asked.

I gulped down. Am your daughter papa, the one who didn't deserve your love and broke your trust.

I wanted to run to him and cry in his arms asking for forgiveness right now, A father will never hold any grudge towards his daughter, right? He did not ever saw me as a daughter-in-law but a daughter they always prayed for but I am a cursed one who didn't care about their feelings.

I am not allowed in their life anymore.

"Yes, I joined few days ago." I whispered wiping my tears.

"In case he comes back inform him to call me." He cut the call and I kept staring at the receiver.

Does he also hate me like Ekansh and Adithya? He will not forgive me?

I kept the reciever back in it's place and slumped down on the couch behind me palming my face. There's no use of regreting now, I have already damaged everything now I can't restore it. No matter how much I repent.

Rajvanshi Mansion

Abhimaan, Ekansh's father stared at his phone blankly trying to tell himself that it was just his imagination.

His heart was indicating some thing else, like something was wrong but he didn't know what it was.

No! I am just hallucinating, it's not her voice... it's someone else."

He told himself and kept the phone aside leaning back on the couch in his room.

He closed his eyes trying not to think about the girl who brought happiness and destruction together in their life and left them all with bitter memories till their death.
