8. Teach A Lesson

Arohi

As Arjun understood I didn't want to tell him anything more so he asked me sleep and to talk next morning as it was really late at night. I very well knew I wouldn't be able to tell him the lot I was going through. My feelings were harmed, thoughts destructed and emotions played and telling him things would show him my weakness.

What I learned from life is that never show your weakness to the world because you don't know who wants to play with them until you trust someone to tell. He was frank and nice person but he was still stranger and not trustable.

I immediately stood up to run away to cry out of my agony. I didn't care where this guest was to sleep as I accepted him to be Dev's best friend so he would feel himself home and find comfort in any of the rooms in this big Raizada Mansion. It was this big that whole of my colony would have lived in it spaciously compared to the small rooms in which eight to nine managed to live loving, crying, laughing and fighting. It was the family love holding us together. At this thought I wondered how my family lived despite the way they quarreled and cursed each other and then beat me.

I shivered at the horrible memories I jumped into and my hand flied to the bedside table to switch on the lamp. My terrorized state didn't give me the way to switch that on still I managed with my trembling hand.

My bedside lightened with the little yellow light. Though I wasn't calmed. The fear of that man, my name sake father would come to me out of darkness and I couldn't run away faster. Thought of him was freaking me out.

"Dev is not here. "

I mumbling thought that both of the men were devil still I couldn't stop wanting Dev beside me. Why that man far from my home was haunting me? I stared at the darkness trying to comfort myself by thinking the little good things that ever happened to me.

I closed my eyes and that handsome man with the mustache, much older than me wearing the smile stood before me. His smiling face gave warmth to my heart. That man I feared to meet an hour when it was actually Arjun was once lovable to me. He told me his name was Akash which I think want not true even. I cringed at the memory when suddenly he changed and showed me his real self within three months of me accepting that I really liked the person and thought him angel of my life. Dev and he were no different in how they behave except that I could see that Dev heart melt and he curse himself for what he does.

I erased Akash from my heart the day he forced me to fulfill his dark desires for which he waited. I pushed him away but he wasn't the one to leave me alone easily and than one day miracle happened and I haven't seen him and hope not to see him ever again.

Now I want my devil husband to change himself and love me. His caring looks came into my view giving me hope for things getting along for us. Each moment he did good to me soothed my pain he himself caused. Thinking about him I don't know when I slept.

Cooking has always been my best friend because my family never allowed my books to become as cooking got their stomach filled while me studying eat their guts.

I was busy with my halwa when I sensed someone just so inch away from me though not touching. I couldn't handle it - knowing there might be Creep behind me to catch me in his dirty hand. Last time it was Dev who touched my shoulder making me to freak and barge into him.

Collecting my dilapidated hormones of fear I said, "who's here?"

The black sleeves emerged from my back and I jerked back reflexively. Then came the whole known person with the smiling sweet face calming my over reactive senses of mine.
