Shehnaaz woke up listening to her
alarm. She groaned as she saw the time and remembered that she has an exam to give. It's the last exam and she is relieved about the fact. Thank god that her sister made ger study yesterday so that atleast she would pass because probably her husband is too busy in the memories of his ex.
She found herself in bed and thought how did she come here. Maybe Sidharth brought her here. But where is he now.
Remembering her husband , she looked beside to see if he is there but she found the place empty. She yawned as she got up and sat with the help of bedrest. Looking at the couch she found his coat and shirt and understood that he did come here but didn't even bother to wake her up and apologize. She doubts if he will even apologize or not.She chuckled sadly as she thought he won't even care.

Taking the water bottle from the side table she drank water as the yesterdays memories flooded in her mind making her eyes watery. She quickly controlled herself and got up. Her eyes were still swollen and were paining.. She never knew marriage comes with phase like this and she hated it.

Taking a swift bath she got ready in simple clothes and took out books to study. After an hour she was done with her revision and took her bag. Her phone was kept on the side table of bed. She went to pick it but saw a paper sticking on the table. She took it in her hand. Of course she knows the handwriting

"Do well in your exam. Remember you have to make your parents and me proud

-Yours Sidharth"

She read it aloud and her eyes watered.
"You are not mine sidharth.. not today..not tomorrow" , she mumbled to herself as tears came out of her eyes. She sat there crying again. How can she not cry when she herself read those I love you said by him to some other girl. Even if it was his past , his action justified that maybe he still loves that girl. And him finding shehnaaz incapable to share this, made her feel pathetic. He doesn't even consider her as a friend to tell this.

She went down taking her bag as she met with everyone. Dadi came towards her and hugged her giving assurance.

"Main tumhare sath kuch galat nahi hone dungi beta", Dadi spoke caressing her head while she just looked down not knowing what to say.

"Raat ko aap le gayi thi kamre mein", Shehnaaz enquired. Although she knows that he came at night and took her to their room. But still she asked. She wants to know about him. And asking it directly was against her ego.

"Sidharth aaya tha.... Subah jaldi chala gaya..kuch zaroori kaam tha..", Dadi told her and shook her head annoyed. She just need to give him a good beating for his doings.

"Mujhse bhi zyada", shehnaaz mumbled slowly but dadi did hear it and chuckled sadly.

"Main kisi cheez ka bharosa nahi dila sakti tumko..par ek baat kehti hoon. Wo tumhe kabhi dhokha nahi dega Shehnaaz", Dadi told her. Trying to give her a sort of assurance she can but was failing badly

"Dadi...ye cheez unke bartaav se to nahi lagti mujhe", she retorted back. He is wrong. And no body can defend him.

"Kuch samay do is rishte ko Shehnaaz... Kuch cheezein apne aap bhi hoti hain..", Dadi said as shehnaaz gave her a smile. A genuine one.

"Dadi...unhe kabhi mujhse pyaar hoga bhi ke nahi", Shehnaaz asked as she

She wasn't feeling good today. Of course how can she when he is not there. His absence makes her mad and their fight is a cheery on the top. And the new revelation by dadi made her think more of him.

She went to her college without eating anything. Her Appetite was lost.She remembers what is he doing. Did he even think of her or its just the efforts he did because of his family and now everything was over. Negative thoughts flooded her mind as she shook her head
