Author's POV:
The room got eerily silent. All the faces were shocked with wide eyes. Why not, after all Ritika just slapped her best friend. Varun and Abhishek are shocked and looking at the girls, they didn't dare to say anything.
"What do you think you are huh?" Ritika glared at Arohi. She looked at the boys and they just shrugged and raised their hands in surrender.
"Ritika listen to me I..." she was cut offff
"Why should I listen? And what do you have to say huh? What explanation do you have of your actions" she roared "And leave that. What explanation do you have of keeping the kids hidden from us all? Especially their father? Who gave you that right Arohi whoo?" she shook Arohi's shoulders.
"Whatever happened was between you two, but why did you punish the family, especially the kids? You deprived them of the love of their family Arohi! Have you thought what would the family go through after knowing the truth? Do you have any idea what was jeeju's condition after you left? He was broken and it was all because of you Arohi! I have seen him crying for you, praying to the god to send you back. He was so broken that he started drinking on daily basis. He became a mess and you are the reason of it. Oh God, do you realize what you have done?" Ritika was shaking Arohi with every word to make her understand.
Arohi removed her hand with a jerk. Tears streamed down her eyes which are red, she screamed at her "What do you expect from me? You expect me to stay the fuck there and look at someone else claiming my husband as hers? Look at my husband breaking my heart even more? Tell me Ritika what would you do if the same happened to you huhhhh? If you were in my place huh?"
"Your ex did the worst with you and I understood you. But what about me? You didn't and don't understand me and my situation! You looked at him suffering but what about meeeeeeeee?" She shouted pointing at herself "I was also suffering. I was also a mess. My entire life became a mess after that day. The whole period when I was with him I suffered. His taunts, his ignorance, his hatred, his accusations. But no one noticed my pain. No one saw the pain behind my smile. I suffered alone, I had no one with me. Not then not now but I never said a word. If fact when I saw his efforts I forgot everything and gave our relationship a genuine chance but what did I get in return?"
"Aru.." she showed Abhishek her palm and wiped her tears harshly.
"I was also hurt. I was also broken. God damnit it was my birthday, the best day of my life and it all happened. My best day turned out to be my biggest nightmare coming true. I was broken. I always had a fear that he will leave me one day and that day I actually saw it coming true. I was feeling suffocated thinking about it all especially in that house. Every single thing was haunting me. You all were haunting and suffocating me. So I became selfish and I left! I shouldn't have but I did because if I would have stayed there, I would have just killed myself because of everything" she fell on the floor with a thud. She was a crying mess.
"I don't know what happened after I left. I don't know if the baby was his' or not. Honestly I don't even want to know. But tell me you all, what would I have done if the baby was his and he accepted them and threw me out of his life? Do you expect me to stay there and look at my husband making a family with someone else? If yes then I am so sorry I am not that strong to look at that day. I would rather die" she wiped her tears and looked at them "I hid my kids from you all because I thought Abhishek has a family with Malvika. I didn't want to tell him about our children, only for him to refuse to accept them. Or worst what if he said to abort them? You are thinking of me as selfish, but I am a mother and I was just thinking about my kids. For fuck's sake they are the reason I am even alive" she cried hysterically. Abhishek took her in his arms and she cried out loud.
"I never wanted to hide them but I did and I don't regret it. Do you get it. I DON'T REGRET IT! If you have a problem with this then get the hell out of my house" she looked at all of them with emotionless eyes.
"Bhabhi listen she is hurtjust like you and she came here to get you back home. Please come back home. We all need you and the kids" Varun said while holding a crying Ritika.
"I am not going anywhere. Hope you got your answer. Now feel free to leave" she got up wiping her tears and went to her room.
She locked the door of the washroom and stood under the shower. She cried with everything she had.
She is hurt. She missed her best friends and family each and everyday in these 4 years. In fact she has no problem with Ritika slapping her. Of course she has the right to fill senses in her mind but what hurt her most is that she blamed her of what happened. What was her mistake? They all know Abhishek's side of story but what about Arohi? No one knows what happened and what she went through.
She just sat there crying her heart out. And outside Abhishek was listening to her muffled cries. She deliberately locked the door so he could mot come inside. He wanted to hold her and tell her she is the most brave woman he has ever seen. His heart broke when he heard her outside, but he understood her pain because he also went through it.
He never blamed her for anything, he was hurt because she left him due to some misunderstanding. But he understood how hurt she must've been that she had to take that step. He hoped her to stay and clear it all but again their relationship was never so string. He himself put all the insecurities in her mind.
They both sat there. One was shedding silent tears whereas the other was crying her heart out for god knows how long.
To be continued...
