Kairat- My Family

1. Kartik Divorces Naira

Kartik watched angrily as Naira ignored Sirat's kids eating food and trying to tell her about their day while she happily got engaged with her own kids.

"I am done", Kartik said entering inside. Even the Goenkas were ignoring his and Sirat's children. "Get up kids", he said. "We need to go and visit mumma", he said. His and Sirat's children got up coming close to him.

He picked up his months old babies and hugged them both tight.

He tolerated the misbehaviour for six months. He won't tolerate it anymore.

"Come", he said and made all of them settle in his big car tucking them in their seat belts. He helped the toddlers and younger ones inside and settled the two and one year olds in the baby seats.

He settled the months old babies with security in their baby seats with full security. He settled the two babies (newborns) in the baby carriers he was wearing. Two in front and two at back.

He closed the car doors instructing them to keep quiet.

Naira had returned six months back and he had explained her maturely that he didn't intend to hurt her. He just moved on. His and Sirat's full story and she seemed to accept it and forgive him for it because he didn't betray her. She died in his eyes when he married. So of course, it wasn't his fault and he wasn't wrong.

A week ago, Sirat went in coma after falling off the stairs and Kartik was shattered. Naira stepped up to take care of all the children of Sirat along with her's and came back but all he had seen her doing is misbehaving with his children and he was done.

He was a father after all. It was too much for him to see his kids getting mistreated for even a day, he tolerated it for a week. He saw how Goenkas changed in a week, they gave troubles to Sirat too which made him hate the Goenkas and grew distant from them. Even his and Naira's kids were behaving rudely now.

It was time for him to take a stand and he would.

"It's over now", he whispered. He made his way in Goenka House with documents in his hand.

"Naira!" He called out. Naira smiled and came towards him. He forwarded the papers. Naira looked confused at them and took them. He waited patiently as she saw it and shock filled her face.

"D-Divorce?" She stuttered.

"Kids!" He called out. The children came outside. "Go upstairs and don't come outside of your room. Go", he said. The children didn't argue seeing him so angry. They quietly left for upstairs while Goenkas gathered outside.

"What the hell is this Kartik?" Naira shouted.

"You can speak slowly. My babies are sleeping", Kartik said kissing the forehead of the two babies in the front baby carrier.

"To hell with them", Naira snapped.

Kartik's eyes darkened. "Mind your tongue when talking about my kids. Understood?" He said angrily. Naira gulped seeing his furious expression.

"Divorce", Swarna whispered to others peeking in the document. Everyone were shocked.

"Kartik!" Manish said angrily.

"I have seen everything", Kartik snapped back resisting to shout knowing his babies were sleeping. "In this week, you all, including Naira and unfortunately my and Naira's children have made them feel worse. Aarohi told me two days back but I didn't believe her. I should have", Kartik hissed.

"What have we done?" Surekha said offended.

"Wrong question. Ask what have you not done? Since day one, since the day my wife entered, you have been torturing her. Be like Naira. Do this. Do that. Why? She's amazing as she is. She doesn't need to be Naira. She's perfect. Sirat always hid her pain for me but I saw it. I stayed quiet at her insistence but now you stoop so low? That you make my children suffer in your baseless hatred. If you can't love them, you could have told me. At least my hopes wouldn't have been shattered", he said furiously.
