ONE MONTH AFFAIR

PART 37-a

"You're pig headed monster," I shouted at him with all the energy left in me.
"You're no less chameleon, " he retorted back.
"You shouldn't have said that," I said taking a step closer at him shivering as my wet clothes stuck on my body and the gust of winds made it worse for me.

" Oh really? I just did," he smirked throwing another bucket full of water on me; making me wet all over again and boiling my blood all over again.
" Shaksham Mehta, I swear to god if you try to pull one more prank on me I will-" he did not let me complete my sentence and throw me in the pool, I didn't realised we were there.
Oh my god!  My conscience screamed at me to shout and told him that I can't swim but the shock didn't let me speak. I was scared of death at that moment. What he walked away then no one would be there to help me and save me. Within seconds I was dipped in the drowning water of full. My body came up on the surface of water and my mind was drifted to my family.
" Dad..." the word was inaudible whisper and I could hear Shaksham laughing.
" He..help..help," I said in weak voice.
"I.. I can't- I can't swim, " I said with the energy left in me.
" Don't fool me purvi. By the way I'm going inside. Happy dieing, " he waved at me.
Oh no! Please don't go. I really don't know how to swim. I wanted to shout but the water kept pulling me inside and after few failed attempts of splashing my hands and foot in water I felt my self drowning.  The water was inside my nose and mouth and I coughed but it filled inside me again and slowly I was drifted to death.
Love you mom, dad , Purab and Aahana.  Have a great life.
That's my end.

The sound of beep and little more shuffling broke my sleep.
Sleep!? No no. I might be in heaven, its all white here, may be my soul needs some vein- flow and drips of glucose. But I was strong girl on earth my soul should be strong and nutritious; who knows this may be new rule of heaven.
May be all the newcomers should go through some medical test to be safe and infection free. I miss my parents. But where are the angels;  don't they know they have a new member?
I think I should go and find them myself. I opened my eyes fully and the light was murderous to my vision. Once I set my vision I saw few voices.  Maybe angels are here finally.
" Go call the doctor, " I heard a male voice.  That sounds very familiar.  I tried to sit up but suddenly pulled in a hug before I knew who it was.
"I'm so sorry I didn't believe you. I am sorry. Oh thank god you're ok," Shaksham said.
Shaksham?  It meant I wasn't in heaven. Shoot I missed the chance.
" Are you okay? Do you need water?" He said looking at me with concern. I could tell that he hadn't sleep last night judging by the redness and bags of his eyes, he hadn't shaved today. He had nice growth of hair 'cause just last night I saw him clean shaved.
" Get your hands off my daughter! " we turned hearing my dad who was oozing fire at Shaksham and shaksham dropped his hand which was cupping my face, instantly and gulped in fear.
Poor you, Shaksham.
" Are you okay, Princess? Did he do something again? " he asked coming near me and checking whether I had any sign of injury or not.
"I'm fine dad," I said and realised I need water as my throat scratched a bit.
Both of them hurried to get the glass of water. I saw both of them looking at each other; dad was glaring and Shaksham was pleading; at the end Shaksham gave up and dad handed me the glass.
" Purvi! " I heard mom came inside too follwed by Purab, Aahana, Vrinda and Mehta couple. They all were looking at me with concern. I was glad they all were here but at the same time I was confused with dad's behaviour with Shaksham.
"You scared us baby, you shoul have called for help. I thought I lost you when you weren't up for 3 days," she said shedding her precious pearls.
" Oh mom! Chill I am okay see," I said hiding my own tears.
" I would've killed this boy for doing this. Can't he help you? How dare he push her in pool!" Dad exclaimed and Purab had same expression on his face and giving Shaksham same murderous glare as dad.
" This boy can never be responsible. Always troubling others. The girl could've died," his father growled on him and he was looking more in guilt.
" I am sorry about my son's behaviour, " his mother apologised on his behalf and all this family drama was too much to handle.
"Please Mrs. Mehta, don't apologise. He wasn't alone in that accident.  It was purvi's mistake too," mom said glaring me. Gone was the soft hearted mother and here I present the evil mother.
I looked down, of course.  Mom was right,

" Will you explain them the whole event sweetheart? " mom said in her bittersweet voice.
I cringed inside, "Of course, mother, ".
