Truths, Tears and Terrible

𝘼𝙉𝙎𝙃𝙄𝙏𝘼'𝙎 𝙋𝙊𝙑

I gained consciousness, looked around but no one in sight, the bed was empty, last I remembered Rajvir lied here. I stared at the wall clock and it was 12 noon, its just been 2 hours.

I stood drank some water from the glass placed on side table and stood up, my legs wobbling.
The door Opened and a maid came in, her expression were relieved.

"भगवान का शुक्र है आपको होश आ गया, मैं अभी सबको लेकर आती हूँ ( Thank God you gained consciousness, I will just inform everyone) ". She walked out in a hurry leaving my suspicious, soon I got the answer.

I was unconscious for a whole day.

What about the last rites of ragini, and the truth?

I walked out in search of my husband. I saw him walking in a fast pace towards me.

" You are ok". He looked like he haven't slept for days, in just one day. The dark bags under his eyes, his face all tensed.
The hand on my cheek felt cold.

"I am". I said and relief washed over his features, the tensed muscles of his bidy loosened and he hugged me like never before.

" I was afraid". He was I can sense it, feel ot with all my senses.

"Don't worry I am ok". I reassured him while caressing his back.

Soon everyone joined us and I saw another person I didn't know there before, wearing casuals.

" Who is he"? Unable to stop myself I asked.
"He is Gaurav". Vivaan answered, and continued,
" Ragini and Harshit's mutual friend". That got my eyes to widen.

"But you don't need to think about anything for now, just rest". His tone was convincing and considering my babies's health I nodded but didn't left his hand.
I am not going to leave him alone, not in this state when he looked like he needs sanity.

" Can you come with me". He looked at Papa Ji, with a nodding assurance from him we moved towards our room.

"Here eat something". He said with a Apple slice in his hand. I took it and placed it back.

" Vivaan do you Love me". Even I don't know why I asked this but just like he needed something to hold onto, me too.

He placed his hand on my cheek and caressed it with his thumb. I didn't know I was crying until he wiped the tear away.

"Promise me Vivaan you will take the decision considering everyone's well being". He hugged me and I can feel the tensed muscles of his body.

"I promise".

The environment was tensed when I walked in the living room. I ate and rested until I saw Vivaan was not beside me.

This time no one asked me to stay in my room, not even Vivaan. I stood beside him, my eyes on Rajvir who was listening to mishti, but his eyes were on 𝘮𝘦.
Like asking me what his future holds, and I looked at Vivaan, now everything is in his hands as Papa Ji gave him the right to take the decision.

Soon I saw Rajvir coming towards us, no, towards 𝘩𝘪𝘮.

Vivaan looked at him and I held his hand. His hand raised, to caress him head.
Warmth filled in my heart.

He will not take this decision for anyone but for Rajvir. I know he will do the right thing.

I trust my husband.
