Split Personality-161

It was just like a whiplash and Nalini's face filled with full shock! "I just don't know how you have become this much numb Sanjan! If this is any other woman giving a baby like this to you, I certainly would have approved it. But rascal it is your mother in law, who is as per law mother to you, is pregnant now because of you and going to be the mother of your baby. How you became that much senseless I just cannot understand!"

"I am not in a mood to make arguments with you Nalini. I am going to have this baby and I do have it. That is all." After saying that he went away from that place fast.

"I just don't know....I just don't know...." once again Nalini became ready to burst into weeping.

"Enough weeping. We go and talk with your mother now. Come." Rose got off from the bed and both of them went into the room of Malathi.

"Once he wants the baby that much, I cannot agree to the abortion. My daughter cannot give one to him at all and I am making up for that deficiency in this way as her mother." As soon as Rose started trying to make her agree for the abortion, Malathi said.

"One thing for which I am feeling so sorry is; why could not I kill you on the day when your disgusting sexual affairs with other guys came into light. If I have killed you on that day itself, I need not have faced this situation now. You bloody wretched woman, do you know whose child you are having in your womb? It is the baby of your son in law, your son as per law. If any other woman were in your place, she would have died with shame even to think about such a thing!" Nalini was once again yelling vehemently.

"I cannot argue with you. But I have taken the decision. I cannot deprive my son in law of his pleasure of having a baby." Malathi was firm and persistent.

Malathi yelled, cajoled and coaxed her mother for a long time to have the abortion to get rid of the sin in her womb but Malathi was adamant. In the end she was exhausted and felt drained of all her strength. Rose also tried to make her agree to abort her pregnancy but the result was the same.

"Don't ask me what to do now. I myself am very much in confusion in this regard." Rose said with irritation in her face. "And please don't burst into weeping again. That also does not help."

"No Rose, there is a choice to me now. I can do one of the two things." Suddenly there was a determined expression in the face of Nalini. "I can go and hang myself or kill those both."

Rose expected that she might say something like that so she did not feel shock. "Certainly. But before you exercise either of that option, we do something."

"What is it?" Nalini knitted her brows together. "Still you are feeling that we can do something in this regard?"

"Of course, yes." Rose nodded her head. "My senior Charles is more matured and experienced psychiatrist. We do talk with him and listen what he would say. If he too fails to give any reasonable solution to this problem, I help you in exercising one of those two options."

"Alright then" Nalini nodded her head.

"It is not the first time you asked like this and came for my suggestion Rose but it is the first time that you came to me with a problem like this." After hearing everything Rose said to him, Charles said.

When Rose said that she has a very important matter to discuss with him regarding her friend, Charles agreed and both Rose and Nalini were present before him then.

"It is also first time that you cannot give any suggestion to this problem." Rose sighed heavily and said. "I have expected this Charles. But my friend is very much desperate even to commit suicide for what her mother and husband did. I am hoping that you may change her decision."
