Heir Of Darkness

The Fight

*Click*

*Click*

Once those clicks had made me smile, made me cry, made me romance and made me feel elated but now, they couldn't make me do anything. I always wanted every facade of my happiness which went behind the posing for every photograph to fade and it was finally happening. My own wishes were turning against me.

I had cried enough that I could feel that I would not be able to cry anymore, of course I wouldn't be able to cry in this state. I was laughing mentally at these media people who wanted to capture a photograph of mine. What would anyone get by seeing the photograph of a living corpse, devoid of any emotions, any feelings? I finally felt at peace when these reporters had to barge in as if they could interrogate me. I was the one who was seeking answers then how would I be able to answer them?

One of the reporter's question reached my ears as I assume they were being pushed back by the security,

" Is it true that Mr.Arnav Malhotra couldn't be arrested because of a lack of proof?"

He couldn't be arrested?

Of course there wasn't enough proof but my maid Ramya could have given some statement as she knew about this. Was even that not enough?

I wanted to punish that person who pushed me into putting my baby's life in danger. He coerced me to forget all those changes which had occurred in my own body due to pregnancy with his emotional torment which would have been next to impossible considering how much I wanted to be a mother, and how I always looked to symptoms hinting at it.

He had not just snatched the love which I held as the most precious and thought I would die without but also tried to snatch my baby from me. Probably he knew it and hence started to go out with her more so that I leave him.

Only if he had told instead of pushing me into this vortex of darkness.

I jerked myself mentally for lamenting about my past yet again, only to realize that my heart was probably still in painful love but love anyways with him.

Why is that there is one such person in your life who hurts you with every weapon they could come up with yet your heart doesn't want to hate them, just wants to be angry with them and wants to be appeased by them?

I wanted him to get punished but I couldn't hate him. What was this heart of mine trying to say? I could feel someone approaching me as I heard some footsteps with their sound increasing with every passing second.

" Khushi, you need to fight this. You need to come out of comatose and get that Malhotra punished. You know he almost confessed to Mr.Raizada that he wanted you out of his life and hence pushed you to the breaking point. You cannot be lying like this, in pain, unable to move yourself when that bas**** has all the freedom of the world. Wake up, darling!"

Lavanya?

My best friend had always warned me against him and today she proved to be right. I prayed to the god, that once, just once my heart would listen to my brain and quit loving him after getting proofs in every manner about his behavior and after my own brain wanted him to suffer.

Just once...
