Poonam's pov

I have been having counselling for nearly two months now..... talking with Dr ram has really helped me..... but still a part of me feels dead......

Mom has put me into our business now...... she feels since I am an architect I can run the our business better......

Work has helped me get over sabir too..... but.....still....everytime I sit down to work....I tend to phase out into the bad times I had with him.....how can anyone change soo drastically? ???....was all that attention, love, care ....just an act.....
I always remember those words he told me....with pure hate....

"I hate you poonam!!! How could I have ever thought of loving YOU!...."

Due to the counselling and job mom feels I am getting better....atleast mom thinks so.....

I have gone and met dad.....even after soo many years he is still the most handsome man.....doctors told us he is improving now.....hopefully he gets well soon.....I miss his hugs and encouragements.... he always told me how to tackle the most difficult situation

Today when I need him most being with me....he is still not with me......all this is because of bhai.....why bhai????? Why!!!???

I always thought sabir was my prince charming. .....until.....

Flashback

Sabir and I were sitting and watching tv atleast thats what i thought..... it would be two months to our marriage in one minute.....
I was getting excited but sabir was busy on the laptop. .....

When it was finally 12 o'clock....I jumped from the sofa and ran towards sabir and hugged him....

"Happy anniversary jaan" I said excitedly

He only stood there like a stone....

I broke my hug and looked at him questioning his behavior. ......but he instead looked....irritated

"Sabir....what happened? " I asked

He said nothing and....




slapped me

It was the first time he slapped me....the slap was soo hard I fell on the ground with a burning cheek......I looked at him with tearful eyes.....

"Don't you ever touch me you filthy b*$#@$" he said with venom dropping from every word

I only stayed in the same position utterly confused and shocked.....sabir had never slapped me......

I was too shocked to notice that now he was crouching near me looking at me with a smile but hate in his eyes.....

"Poonam.....darling.....I forgot to tell you somthing...... you do or say or act anyway without my permission your family business will become insolvent .....your family will be in streets. .....your dad.....hahaha. ...he is already ill I don't think you would want him to become worse do you??" He said sounding like devil

I was soo shocked and scared now......I didn't realize I was crying like a baby.....

"Awww....baby don't cry....or no....you cry.....I like you that way....you look better......" he said lifting my chin with his fingers

"There ...there.....you thought I love you????.....nah....never....I hate you Poonam! !! How could I have ever thought of loving YOU????!!"

He got up and took a few steps back....I thought he might hit me again so I moved back to defend myself. .....

He saw what I did......his expression changed from anger to amusement. .....he gave a smirk and turned around to leave the room leaving me.....shocked. ...scared. .....vulnerable. ......I sat there numb...... but before I could do anything or feel anything else. ....sabir came back to the room....

"Oh and baby.....happy anniversary! " he said that with a fake smile and eyes ready to kill me......

These thoughts still haunt me.....raj has been a true friend through out.....he always calls me to ask about my well being....mom told me everything about how he has helped us......he is truely a great friend......

Somtimes I feel...... why did I marry sabir when raj always loved me......he always told me he loved me...but I guess I had sabir's spell on me.....that's what mom says......

In these past few months. ...... not only have I started feeling a bit better....but my anger and hate for sabir has increased......I won't forget those words he told....I won't forget those curses he gave.....I won't forget those slaps.....those kicks. ....the pain in my body that made me feel paralyzed ......but most importantly. .....I won't forget the way he broke my heart which can no longer love anyone......

I hate you sabir!!! I won't spare you......how could I ever love a devil like you!
