It was late night and Reema was seething in anger. She was sitting on couch waiting for him. He came home and smiled at her.
" I am sorry. I had a work came up so I couldn't come at time." Shrey worded.
" Shrey what did you promised me when I caught your affair?" Reema said calmly folding her arms.
" Why are you bringing that up?" Shrey frowned.
" What did you promised?" She said making sure her voice is down but dominant.
" That ... I should never forget our kids at any cost. If there comes a time where I have to choose between our kids and Anaya then I should always choose our kids. Anaya will never be given my surname. They both will be hidden forever. They can never use my name ever. Anaya will be treated equally as Riya and Rishi but she can't have the right to call herself a legitimate child. We will celebrate birthday's together." Shrey said blankly.
" Exactly. You even promised that kids will never know you have a mistress but you already broke it and today you missed our son's birthday. Not because of work but because you were busy with your mistress." Reema seethes.
" She was sick, Reema." Shrey snapped.
" So? Rishi should be your first priority not your mistress. Not to forget she was not sick but pretended to be sick." Reema said splashing water on his face. He held her arms tightly.
" I didn't knew that. I got to know that when I reached there. I love her not you." Shrey warned.
" I'd prefer her dead more. And I never beg for your love. I don't need that cheap thing. It doesn't matters if she was sick or not. If you had come home and spent even 2 mins with Rishi then it was more than enough. You could have gone to check on her after that. Did I asked too much from you? I never stopped you from spending time with that whore." Reema said pushing him angrily.
" You don't love me but you do love our kids. You do care for them. Don't you? Didn't a thought even crossed your mind?" Reema said holding his collars.
" I do love my kids Reema and I am sorry. I forgot..." Reema cut him off by pushing him.
" How dare you? You forgot my son's birthday." Reema shouted.
" It's our..." She again cut him off by throwing the vase.
" I don't want a bastard like you around my kids. Leave. Leave and never come back." Reema seethes.
" Reema. They are my kids too." Shrey reasoned.
" Shrey don't mess with me. You will regret it. Right now I just want you to leave. Don't make me divorce you and take the custody of my kids to myself. And I don't think you are naïve enough to fight for their custody since you can never get it." Reema gritted her teeth.
" Reema. Please listen to...." Shrey calmly took a step forward but Reema pushed him.
" There is nothing to listen. You broke the promise. Leave and don't even step your foot here until I am dead. Or you know better what I am capable of. Just one phone call and you will be nothing. All these years I neglected it but not anymore. I neglected it as I didn't want the kids to be called without a father and only this reason is stopping me from divorcing you. Don't make me do something I don't want to." Reema warned.
" Reema...."
" Leave." She shouted and he looked up.
He saw Riya and Rishi near staircase. They turned their heads from him breaking his heart. He left unable to do anything. He couldn't fight against Reema as he knows he will lose. Him losing means he can never see his kids again so he silently left with tears in his eyes. His trusted man Shiv came to him. He patted his shoulder.
