Behind the truth

Chapter 21

I was looking at the clock every time. Patting my feet hardly, my hands were sweating and my mind was completely blank.

What made Riya to take Anshika with her so late at night?

I was restlessly sitting on the sofa when the doorbell rang. I quickly got up from and ran towards the door. As soon as I opened it I saw Anshika licking ice cream and Riya smiling by looking at her.

I took Anshika in my arms and hugged her tightly. Tears were streaming down my cheeks.

"Eva? Are you alright?"asked Riya.

I just nodded and hugged Anshika for sometime.

"Mumma! My ice cream!"she said and I smiled.

I left her and faced Riya. Till then Anshika ran towards her T.V as she was waiting for her serial to start.

"You look tensed."said Riya sarcasticly.

"I was!"I replied immediately.

"What was the reason?"she asked.

"Well..huh..I was worried as where you both went without telling me." I said with hand movements and fake smile.

"Well Anshika was tense after seeing you on roof. So I took her for ice cream to change her mood." she said with smile and futher said "don't worry so much." and hugged me.

"Oh! Thank you so much" I hugged her back and she went in her room.

I was thinking wrong about her! She is not like that. She cared about my daughter. I should stop worrying now.

The next morning I went to drop Anshika to school and when I came back, I saw Riya watching T.V without any blink.

When I went to see what it was I, I found it as my marriage video.

I rushed towards the DVD player and switched it off.

"What's wrong with you?"Riya said in anger and said "I am seeing you being irritated by me. Don't you trust me that much?"

I sighed and left the room and went in my bedroom.

This girl is giving me headache now!

After taking shower I realised that I should say sorry to her about my rude behaviour.

I went out of the room and went upstairs to look for her. She was reading something by facing towards the wall.

"I am sorry Riya. I don't allow anybody to look at those videos and pictures. I don't let anybody see anything related to Ayaan."I said and waited for her to reply but she didn't utter a word.

"I am sorry!"I said once again and was about to leave the room when she spoke " it's okay!"she just said and I left the room.

I should stop being rude!

I didn't talked about anything with anybody. We did our dinner, and went in our room. Anshika slept early as she was tired from school.

Once again I was accompanied by loneliness and pain.

I took out Ayaan's photo and started staring at it. His smile makes me smile too. The photo is just so cute.

I wish you never left!
