Unbreakable

Chapter 13

"What's going on?" Karan asked as he walked into the dining room area.

"Snehal is making a big deal for no reason bhai," Vicky said annoyed, lifting Sunaina up. "Shh.. It's okay," Vicky said to Sunaina. My heart ached on the fact that Snehal would treat her three-year-old daughter like this. I feel bad, I really want to carry her in my arms and calm her down. Snehal hates me but that doesn't mean she should shed her hatred for me on her daughter like that.

"Karan, she was holding our daughter!" Snehal yelled angrily. She honestly sounds like a child. She's acting as if I had taken away one of her precious jewels or something.

"Uhh..." Karan trailed off and glared up at the ceiling for a bit. Even he seems fed up with Snehal's childish acts... I think. "Baby, it's okay. Sunaina needs to adjust to her presence, right?" Karan said, walking towards her. Of course, he's not going to say anything to her.

"Fine. But tell her to stay away from our daughter." She said while stressing on the words our daughter. As if I cared. I already have a daughter and a son with Karan, so haha. 

"She will," Karan said and placed his lips on hers. It feels like as if my heart has stopped beating due to what I saw. And at that moment, I realized that this is definitely going to be one hell of a long month. Vicky and I looked at each other and then I looked at Sunaina who was staring at them.

"Bhai, get a room. Don't do this in front of us. We still haven't eaten dinner yet," Vicky said exhausted from all this crap that's been going on.

Breaking the kiss, Snehal asked, "Is she going to stay in one of the guest rooms?"

Woooow. Does she have the intention of placing me in the servants' quarters or something? My goodness. But hey, it's time to burst her bubble. "Nope. It's your beloved fiancé's wish that I stay in his room," I said letting out a smile while crossing my arms.

"What?!" She screeched. Oh God! Her voice is going to damage my eardrums. "Karan, what is she saying?!"

"She's staying in my old room. That's why she's saying that." Karan said passing me a death stare. Wow old room, huh? Of course, what was I thinking? I don't think Snehal would want to stay in the same room as I did when I had married Karan. I made a face at Karan and he scrunched his eyebrows at me. I think he's confused about the face that I made? Great, now I feel stupid.

This is getting awkward. I don't want to be a part of this bullshit anymore.

"I'll have dinner later. I'm going upstairs," I said and left all of them in the dining room area. Honestly, how am I supposed to deal with this crap for a month?

"No Bell-... Uh Shraddha. First, eat dinner, then you can go to sleep." Karan urged, gripping onto my wrist. He almost said Bella but refrained himself from saying so. This saddened me.

I shook my head no. "It's been a long day Karan,"I said releasing my wrist from his hand.

I walked up to my room, closed the bedroom door shut, and plopped down on my bed. This day can't get any better. I took out my phone and called Dave. I really want to pour my heart out right now but then I don't want him to worry about me.

"Hello! Shraddha!" Dave answers with a concerned greeting.

"Hey, Dave," I responded cheerfully. I cannot let him know how this situation is tearing me apart. I need to act strong. I cannot let everyone worry about me.

"Who are you putting an act for?" He questioned. "Shraddha, I know you very well. So what happened?"

"I-I can't believe that the moment I stepped into New York, I'm dealing with so much shit," I confessed as tears began to sting my eyes. I explained to him the situation from the beginning to the end.
