Niyati: Their Destiny

27. Accident

Roop's pov

Being married wasn't as bad as i expected it to be. A part of me is liking it. It felt good mostly because it was Raj i married.

I was just sitting by the television chatting with Avu about how her date went.

'.....admitted to nearest hospital. According to sources, Amisha Goenka was going with her driver in her car when another car hit her. The accident seemed too suspicious....."

As soon as i heard the name from the television, a fear settled in the pit of my stomach.

There are many women named Amisha Goenka. It could be anyone. What are the chances that she's Aryan's mother.

'Devendra Goenka and his son are spotted around the hospital. Amid the chaos of losing his daughter, Mr. Goenka is on the verge of losing his wife, too......' The news anchor continued, and my heart sank.

She doesn't deserve this.
He hurt her.
I know it.
It wasn't an accident.
He planned it.
Did he find out Aryan helped me?

What if she leaves Aryan?
She is the only one he has.
She's a good person.
I... I don't want to lose her.

I got up from the couch and walked towards my room.

I shuffled around the room, looking for the phone. I immediately dialed Raj's number.

It was ringing but he didn't answer.
Shit.
I forgot he had an important meeting today. The one he was working for the other day. That's why he left early.

I kept the phone aside, but it went off.
It was Raj.

"Hey, wife. Missing me, huh?" He said teasingly from the other side.

"Ye..eah." I said, clearing my throat.

"Are you crying?" He asked concerned.

"No. I am absolutely okay. All the best for your meeting. Bye." I said and hung up the call before he caught my lie.

I sat on the bed thinking about the time i spent with her. It was mostly her feeding me food when i was starving or applying ointment to my wounds. I knew she hated Mr. Goenka, as much as I did. I knew she wanted to take Aryan and me with her and leave, but she couldn't, and when i got the chance, i left without thinking about her.

I hope she's okay because i can never forgive myself if anything happened to her. Why is Mr. Goenka so obsessed with holding me captive!?
Egoistic asshole.

I can't even go and see her.

"Roop! You okay." Raj's voice broke the trance of my thoughts.

"Raj? What are you doing here!?" I asked, getting up from the bed, and he immediately engulfed me into a tight hug.

"What happened Roop?" He asked.

"You had a meeting." I said shaking my head in disbelief.

"Forget about it. Tell me what happened?" He said patting my back.

"It's nothing." I lied again as he broke the hug and stared into my eyes.

"What is it?" He asked again, and that's it. I couldn't lie anymore, and i broke into tears.

"Am...Amisha Aunty got into an accident." I said as he hugged me again.

"It's okay. It's okay. I'll call Aryan and check upon her." He said softly.

"You have his number?" I asked, and he nodded.

"You want to talk to him?" He asked.

"No." I said almost immediately. I am not ready to talk to him. Not yet.
