Gajra:- A Love Tale

Chapter 40 (Happy ending)

NOT EDITED

Scene starts with a lady tied to a chair and unconscious but some men decked up in black throw water on her making her wake up hurriedly. She looked around the surrounding for a minute before started protesting and shouting.

A man entered in that dark and dusty room, Usha was shocked to see him infront of her in that dress with a hammer in his hand."Ji a..ap-me..mein y..han kya k.ya kr rh..i hu"

"Tujhe kuch yaad nhi hai, huh meri dhaarampatni" She always craved to hear this word from his mouth for her but not in this condition, not in this tone of sarcasm.

"Mein ku..ch n nhi smjhi aur a.ap mujhe mujhe kh...khole to" Usha said to him, pretending to not notice the worst coming for her.

Mahendra's expression changed, his jaw tightened and eyes became cold and red in rage. He went near her and fisted her hairs in his hand and pulled her hairs in a tight, making the woman shout in pain. Mahendra felt satisfied with her pain just she felt when his little family was crying in pain, his Shelly was crying in pain.

"Ji d..ard h.ho ahhh rh..a hai" Usha said feeling blood rolling down from her scalp on her neck but he shows no mercy and tightened his hold.

"Meri Shelly ko bhi hua tha, Mere Vihaan aur Rihaan ko bhi hua tha" Their names made her stop shouting and eyes widen.

"Yahi soch rhi hai na ki meine kyu unka naam liya, mujhe kese pta Vihaan kon hai, Rihaan ko hai. Haina na bollll" He tightened his hold on her hair while saying the last word making her scream in pain, her head was blasting from pain.

"Ahhh me.in n..nhi Jan..ti ahhhhhhhh" Usha tried to say but Mahendra opened her hands and pulled her up to his height by gripping her hairs in his first, making her feel the immense pain.

"Aise kaise, teri hi plan tha na, meri Shelly ko mujhse alag krne ka taaki tujhe mein mil pau Haan?" He pushed her on floor harshly making her head come in contact with hard floor hardly and that side of her head started bleeding.

"Ahhh Ji d.dard h..o r rha h hai" Usha cried out in pain but the man in front of her lost his mind in rage.

"Meri Shelly ko bhi hua tha aur tu thi uske dard ki wajah. Mere Vihaan ko bhi hua aur tu thi us dard ki wajah aur ab mere Rihaan ko bhi tune maut ke muh mein fek diya. Tera dard mere parivaar ka insaaf hai, to tujhe toh jitna dard mile utna kam hai" Mahendra shouted at her, his pain of losing his beloved and child was coming out in the form of his rage.

"A..pko ke kese p.ta?" Usha asked in low voice and being shocked. Her planning can't be flop, he can't know about all this.

"Kese pta chala mujhe? toh sun Kaushal ke aane ke 3 saal baad, jab ek raat wo bimaar tha aur apni neend mein apni Maa Shelly ke liye ro rha tha aur keh rha tha ki mere bhai ko mat maro, meri maa ko mat maro. Jahir si baat hai wo toh nhi batata toh meine hi pata lag waya aur pahuch gya Shelly ke ghar aur dheere dheere sari kahani mujhe pta chali. Man toh kar rha tha usi din aake tum sabko maar du, par nhi Meri SHELLY CHAHTI THI KI USKA BADLA USKA BETA LE, JO KI MERE KAUSHAL NE LIYA BHI PAR TU REH GYI. SAYAD TUJHE RAJ KE LIHAAJ SE CHOD RHA THA WO BUT TUNE, TUNE MERE BETE KO MARNE KI KOSHISH HUH?? JESE SAALON SE KRTI AA RHI HAI" Mahendra bursted out, he can never forget the day when he gets to know about Shelly and the truth about his other son, Vihaan. He still remember that how much he cried that night and didn't come back for months to home, he used to beg and cry to end his sufferings. He had lost hope to live but the thought of Kaushal going through the harsh behaviour if he died, terrifies him to even think of ending his life and then after 2 months he came back to Mansion after making himself that strong to not shed a single tear. But he always took care of his son secretly, he used to buy his clothes and games and give it to him through Rajni. Mahendra's guilt of not saving him from the traumatic day and his brother and mother made him keep a distance from Kaushal, he loved him so much but never expressed his feelings because he always felt guilty just by seeing his innocent face which was deprived from any of childish emotions. Kaushal became so emotionless after that incident and this side of Kaushal terrified Mahendra to approach him.
