"She left everything behind to forgo every bad memory,
Yet she returned back with more bags of bad memories."

Sara:

"Hmm,my bride looks beautiful!",said Tusshar.
I blushed as he complemented me.
I wore a simple red lehenga for my wedding which wasn't so expensive.
He didn't know it.
I wore imitation jewellery for my wedding.
He didn't know it.
As we got wedded,people complemented me.
They thought,"Rich people,simple choice."
But it meant to us,"Rich people,Debt ridden company and poor choice."
He didn't know it.
And then,those five years.
He knew it.
Taunted words.
Those love paths which were filled with roses were now filled with thorns.
Taking someone else as his date when his own beautiful wife sat at home weeping on his behaviour.
And it didn't take long when he gave my rights to someone.
Those wife rights.
He cheated on me.
When he proposed me,I asked,"What if me and my family had no money and were debt ridden?"
He took my hand,kissed it making me blush more and replied,"I don't care.I don't love your money.I love you!"
I nodded and as he slipped the ring to my finger,we kissed.
He told me,"All these are promises worth to be kept for life."
But,
Now,All promises were a lie.
"Hey Sara!Don't cry because of that bastard!He doesn't deserve your tears.",Saransh told me.
And then I realised I had been crying the whole car journey when I was supposed to enjoy it.
I wiped my tears and nodded to my brother.
He didn't deserve to see me sad.
He deserves to see his family happy.Not broken.
I smiled at him and he announced that we had reached home.
I looked at the home.
It wasn't the same we used to live.
It was a three bhk bungalow.
Out there,my mother waited for me as she paced at the door.
As soon as she saw me,She ran fast to me and I?
I sprinted towards her.
My brother laughed as me and my mom hugged.She was with me.Finally.
She kissed my forehead and made me come inside her room.
She had not spoken a single word till then.
As we reached her room,My breathing wasn't normal.
In front of me,he lay.
"Take deep breaths,Sara."for the first time after 5 years,I heard my mother say.
You see,my phone was always broken by Tusshar and he never let me talk to my mother or family.
You could say he was trying to hide the fact about cheating and wanted to still receive money in name of my wellbeing.
But all changed because of my neighbour,Martha.
She helped me back in London.
I took a long breathe and said,"Dad!" Which came out more as a shaky voice.
My dad,Raj Oberoi lay in coma and my brother and mom came to hug me and give me comfort as I let my tears fall.
