Redeeming Love

CHAPTER 11

AUTHOR'S POV:

"Phi please open the door, just listen to us once!" lalice said knocking at the door continuously for 10 minutes but she is not answering.

Becky came back home and locked herself inside her room but no other members knew about it because no one was present in the mansion right now.

"Phi please open the door!" Jennie said loudly so that she could hear her.

"We are sorry Phi we didn't know that it will affect you so much, we promise we will not do such things again Phi please" lalice request Not getting any reply after waiting for some good minutes they sighed heavily in defeat.

They were about to go back but they heard the sound of the door knob but becky didn't come out.

The couple share a look and move inside to find Becky sitting on the bed lost in her thoughts. Her face still has tears marks.

"Phi!!" Lalice calls her softly and sits on the floor in front of her and puts his hands on her lap while Jennie sits beside her.

"Am I that bad lali that your Brother doesn't even want to look at me?" She asked, looking blankly.
"No! No! You are not! You are the best Phi, Bro is a fool for not realising your worth"
"I'm tired now, I am tired of hiding things from everyone about us, you don't even know
anything about us" She huffed
"We know Phi  grandpa told us" Jennie said, making her shocked but didn't say anything.

"I'm sorry from Bro's side Phi" lalice said looking down.
Becy's voice trembled as she expressed her frustration and disappointment. "Why are you
sorry, lalice? It's not you, it's your brother," she began. "You know, I can't even say anything to him. I can't share anything with him. You know why? Because even though we're married, we're still strangers to each other. Talking is far from reality. He never looks at me unnecessarily, as if I'm invisible."

"I'm his wife, he needs to understand, he is not a bachelor anymore! It's not like I'm snatching his freedom, what I need is him, I want him in my life as a husband not as a stranger, which girl will like if she hear her husband telling his grandfather on the first day
of their wedding that I did what you wanted now don't expect anything from me, you  needed  grand daughter-inlaw you got but I don't want a Wife'' her confession shocked jennie and lalice they didn't know about this.

"I want to be like other couples, but I can't even have a simple conversation with him because he doesn't like it. I know I've taken a step back at times, but it's because of his behavior towards me. I can't always be the one putting in all the effort in this relationship."

"I always back off after putting a first step ahead in this marriage because of his behavior.
I'm tired now! Tired of fake hopes, tired of tries which didn't get successful" She cried.
Jennie start rubbing her back in concern, lalice looked at her
miserably, he never saw her crying, he didn't know she always put a fake mask of smile on her face, it hurts him looking at his Sister in law who is like a mother figure in his life, Jennie was also hurt, she knew how much
becky matters for lalice, he always says my sister is like this, like that.
"Why can't he understand? It's not always him, sometimes he needs to understand me too,
he behaves like I don't exist . We are meant to share a life together, but we never even share a bed! Why? Because he doesn't like it, it's always about what he feels but what about
me?" She cried, she badly wanted to take out things from her heart.

"I'm having enough now!"
He wiped the lone tears which unknowingly escaped from his eyes.
"Phi you need to know something, you have all the rights to know this, I know It should be bro who have to tell you but I can't take this anymore because he will never tell you"
Becky looks at him with a frown, her eyes still have tears.

"Jen I need to talk Phi only" lalice indicated to her, she understood and respected his words and moved out after nodding with an assuring smile.

"Wh..what do you mean lali?"
"Bro's past Phi!!" He said making her more conscious.

"We all know P'sam is cold, bad at expressing himself, and has a lot of anger and trust issues, but everyone doesn't know why he is like that! There is a reason behind his behavior
towards you and everyone Phi"

"Something happened to him
when...................."

Becky was shocked, she didn't know about his past.

"I know it will be selfishness to ask you to stay but please just once try it, help him out, he needs you, I am not saying to change yourself but you are strong enough to change him and
you proved that, please do this favor, I am not saying to kneel down in this relationship I can never say something that makes you down but instead of leaving at least talk and try to
sort out things" lalice joined his hands in front of her

"My Brother may look strong from the outside but deep inside he is a baby, the baby we lost years ago because of that incident"

"Please Phi only you can give us old P'sam back, please don't give up on him" he requests with moist eyes.

"He is still a baby Phi he will not ask anything from anyone and expect things to come to him without his saying, he reaches to conclusions without consulting, he maybe
understand the business world very nicely but he is very bad at relationships and
commitments"

"He needs love, he needs you, I'm sure he will not stop you if you start going closer to him and showing love to him, because he also needs someone who cares for him, only him, a person cannot share everything everytime with his parents or siblings he needs someone who is more than that."

"He is not coming near you emotionally because he is scared of that, I don't know what you guys ever talked but I know my Brother, he doesn't show but he cares for you, grandpa told me
he was asking for some time to get into this relationship properly but the truth is he is making himself ready for you, he just behaves rudely doesn't mean he is, I am 100% sure if you start going close to him he will not stop you because it's your rights, just don't leave him"

"Just don't reach conclusions without talking, it just makes relationships weak" He said
with hope to which she nodded.
