[I HAVE DELETED SOME PARAGRAPHS FROM THE CHAPTER. THE PART WHICH RONIT LEARNS ABOUT CHARU'S MENTAL AND PHYSICAL ABUSE IS DELETED BECAUSE IT WILL BE COMING LATER ON WITH SOME DRAMA.]
''Abhimaan Verma'' Abhimaan told the name to the nurse. After some moments, his name was called. Raunak pushed the wheel chair and Abhira and Armaan followed after them.
''You haven't sprained your leg. Your hamstring has got pulled.'' Dr. Avinash told Abhimaan firmly.
''I have pulled my hamstring? What is that by the way?'' Abhimaan asked clueless about the word.
Dr. Avinash patiently explained, "Your hamstring is a group of muscles at the back of your thigh. A pulled hamstring occurs when one or more of these muscles are stretched beyond their limit. It can be quite painful and requires proper rest and treatment."
Abhimaan nodded along, trying to process the information. Despite the discomfort in his leg, he couldn't help but feel a sense of relief knowing the cause of his pain.
''I had told you not to play basket ball! Still you played. You had recently gotten a sprain in your thigh'' Abhira reprimanded Abhimaan who bit his tongue.
''Sorry mumma'' he apologized cutely
''Nothing to worry about. He has to take bed rest and make sure that he doesn't does any strenuous activity.''
''BUT I HAVE MY EXAMS DAY AFTER TOMORROW!'' Abhimaan exclaimed looking at his mother, Abhira
''If you have exams then, wear a knee brace. Any ways you have to wear a knee brace and apply cold compress. I will give you some painkillers which will ease your pain. As the injury is not too major, it will heal in a month or less than that.''
''Thank you so much doctor'' Abhira thanked the doctor.
''Doctor if you don't mind, will you sign the application please? I have written the cause. This will prove to be a great help for him.'' Armaan entered with a paper in his hand.
''Ok then.'' Dr. Avinash signed the application.
''Thank you doc!'' Abhimaan thanked the doctor, a smile plastered on his face
''Get well soon boy!'' The doctor exclaimed, patting his shoulder.
Abhira looked at Armaan, who seemed lost.
She was noticing him since the moment they had got back home after visiting the hospital for seeing the injured man who was taken to hospital by Abhimaan and Raunak.
''Is there something that you want to disclose to me Armaan?'' Abhira asked while opening the lock of their house.
Her conversation was unheard by Abhimaan who was busy getting out from the car, with Raunak.
''There's something serious. I will tell you when Abhimaan sleeps.''
''Serious? Something related to OUR PAST?''
''YES'' Armaan replied, his voice firm but a whisper.
Abhira felt cold sweat run down her spine.
----------------------
''That ABHIRA! She is the one behind my misery, Viraj!" Swati's voice quivered as she recounted the painful memories etched in her heart.
"Your mother could never get your father's love and affection. All that remained in his heart was Abhira. You were not born because of our love but because your father Yuvraj, was tipsy and had come to me sobbing and then had framed it as his mistake."
Confusion clouded Viraj's mind as he tried to grasp the weight of his mother's words. "Who is Abhira, mom?" he questioned, his voice laced with sorrow and disbelief.
"Your father's first and last love.." Swati's voice was filled with a mixture of anguish and resentment as tears streamed down her cheeks, painting a picture of her shattered dreams and unfulfilled desires.
"How dare he!" Viraj's voice rose with fury, his fists clenched in anger as the truth unfolded before him.
"That woman took my husband away from me. I never got the love as his wife. I never felt like a true woman, all because of that ABHIRA. Your father left us and died, the only name he had muttered during his last breath was 'ABHIRA'. It was not me." Swati's lament echoed through the walls of the room, carrying the burden of a lifetime of pain and betrayal.
With each word spoken by his mother, Viraj felt a storm raging within him, a mix of emotions he struggled to contain.
"No mom... I..." Viraj's voice trailed off, his heart heavy with the weight of his mother's revelations.
"Viraj, if you love a girl then marry her or else you will also suffer like me or make others suffer like your father did!" Swati's voice, now weak and fragile, carried a plea for her son to learn from her pain and not repeat the mistakes of the past.
"I love...love y...you..Viraj...." Swati's voice, a mere whisper in the quiet room, hung in the air as her breathing slowed her eyes closing for one final time.
As the black screen on the electrocardiogram showed a straight line, Viraj sat by his mother's side, the realization of a mother's sacrifice and a father's betrayal sinking deep into his soul. Swati's words echoed in his mind, a haunting reminder of the consequences of love unspoken and hearts left unfulfilled.
''I WILL KILL THAT ABHIRA. SHE WILL NOT LIVE. SHE HAS TO DIE!''
-------------------------------
THE MYSTERY DEEPENS AND THERE IS DRAMA COMING IN THE NEXT CHAPTERS.
Charu's in laws have backward thinking and this is the karma for Kajal, Vidya and Manisha as they had hurt Abhira every way possible- from Kajal giving her curse that she will never get love when Charu refused to speak to her after her breakup with Dev, to Vidya and Manisha taunting and scoffing at Abhira for the 'kheer' that she had eaten which was made for Ruhi and was leftover--the karma has got them tangled in a full circle. More to come because the ladies of Poddar house have taunted our Abhira and Armaan every time they see a chance.
About Kiara and her husband- who are in Europe for a business trip, their state will be revealed soon as the show continues to turn the good characters into negative *hehe*
The plot will deepen and will be taking a dark turn because Viraj will be the main pivot for the turn of events.
Yuvraj is dead- of course.
