"Jay..." I said in anger.

"What Kiara? Am I wrong? Why are you even meeting him and HIS son? Why don't you get divorce? I understand you both are husband and wife due to an Indian act but that does not mean that you will have to stay with him for entire life?" Jay asked

"Jay..." I warned.

"What?" He asked frustrated.

"You know everything still you asking me all this?" I asked.

"Why not Kiara? Just... Just cut the crap and either get rid of him or be with him. What do you want? You ain't letting everything go and by everything I even mean Jake. Or else take everything that's on your way." He told.

"Jay stop it... It's not that easy. Ughh!! I now regret telling you anything about My life." I babbled angrily.

"Kiara, Listen. We aren't done." I heard him say as I turned walked towards my room.

"Don't be my dad." I told him.

"Does that mean you are going tomorrow?" He asked. I shut my room's door with a loud bang.

"Ugghh... One day you will have to stop running and make decisions and accept things as they are. Grow up." He said frustration in this voice. I really didn't want to deal with him at the moment. I plugged in my cell to speaker and played one more night on full volume. I hear banging on my room's door but I just lay on my tummy in the bed crying myself to sleep.

Last day passed by with me staying in my room. Sleep never comes and nightmare never goes. I was still very much dependent on sleeping pills. Infact, it feels like it affects less this days so I need high dose to get some sleep.

When everything is wrong, I run. Again after getting up all from the same nightmare which was haunting me for years I decided to go for run. I know to run around could be a bit risky but it was a while since I had last run and I wanted to get rid of the nightmare in my head.

After the run I didn't wanted to have breakfast with Jay or Cai. Infact I didn't had anything from the time we fought as I didn't want to face them.

It was still early for them to be awake so after opening the apartment I tiptoed inside the apartment and went straight to the room as a closed the door of my room I heard Jay call me.

"Kiara" He said again. I didn't reply and started scanning my wardrobe for some decent clothes to wear for courts hearing.

"Kiara are you okay?" Jay asked worried. He did know that whenever I had worst nightmare and felt like crap I go for run.

I ignored Jay and searched my wardrobe. I kept in mind that I have to look like Mr. Agrawal's wife. So I took an Indian saree that I bought earlier for the next con. I decided to wear a pink and white designer saree with black high heels.

I had a quick shower and got changed. The car will be down soon. I applied some concealer, mascara, liner, blush and light pink lip stick. It took us around 25 minutes to get ready. I was then sitting on my bed for the driver's message or Mr. Agrawal's message or call to come.

"Kiara, Breakfast is ready." Jay said knocking on the door. I still wasn't going to talk to him.

I waited for another 5 minutes and my phone rang. I sighed answering the unknown number.

"Hello. Miss I have being assigned by Mr. Agrawal to take you to the court." The person said.

"Oh yeah " I answered. He told me that the car is being waiting next to my building.

I slowly opened my room's door and grabbing my clutch I walked slowly towards the living room where Jay and Cai where watching TV..

"Woah, that's quite a nice saree." Cai said eyeing me.

"You look good." Jay said with a forceful smile. I nodded towards Cai and walked towards the exist.

"Kiara, have something you have not had anything since yesterday." Jay said concern lacing his voice.

"I'll be okay." I replied my back towards him and then walked out of the apartment towards the elevator.

The drive to the court was around one and a half hour. I felt nervous and very scared for some reason. I came out of the car and as I walked I felt everyone's eyes on me.

I saw Mr. Agrawal talking to a lawyer. I recognized him as lawyer as he was wearing a black coat. I walked towards where Mr. Agrawal and the lawyer were standing.

"Anyhow today Jake should be in my custody." Mr. Agrawal said, to the lawyer. He looked the same very formal all suited up. Then his eyes met mine. What was with that look in his eyes? I can tell he liked what he saw. This was the very first time I wore a saree after so many years the last time I wore I was a little kid. 'Yeah and in my marriage, how can I forget that?' I thought.

"Varma she is..." He looked away from me. "My wife." He continued in a whisper. Ouch that hurt like hell. He was ashamed me of calling me his wife. 'Oh yes because he considers you a whore.' The voice in the back of my head said.

"Hello Mrs. Agrawal." The lawyer said offering a handshake which I happily did. After all he was the one who will make 'ME' Jake guardian. Me as Jake's Guardian sounds so good.

"When is the hearing?" I asked Mr. Agrawal.

"We still have half an hour." The lawyer replied as Mr. Agrawal was busy acting busy in his phone. I rolled my eyes at him.

"How's Jake Mr. Agrawal?" I asked loudly. Here I was trying to make conversation and he was totally ignoring me.

"Agrawal?" I repeated angrily.

"Oh, He..." He said looking up from his phone. I moved to stand in front of him.

"Hmm?" I asked him to continue.

"He is doing better." Mr. Agrawal said and I was thinking about Jake and how he would be.

"Umm..." I was again trying to make little conversation with Mr. Agrawal when my eyes saw the people behind Mr. Agrawal and my eyes came out of my socket.

"Shit." I said and hugged Mr. Agrawal. My face buried in his chest.

"What the..?" He asked.

"Please stay there." I said and Mr. Agrawal sensed something was serious as I never say please that easily.

I peeked to see whether they were still there or not and they were still there.

Mr.Fatso and Laila (the blackmailer from London) were still there... TOGETHER..!!
