KAIRA: 💔NO MORE DADDY'S LITTLE GIRL💔

||Chapter 1||

6 years, before.

Kaira's POV

"Higher daddy", I exclaimed with excitement sitting on the swing as dad pushed me higher into the sky.

"Woohoo...", I giggled.

Just then, dad stopped the swing. I turned back to him.

"Time to go home, baby", he said picking me up and carrying me on his back.

"I love you daddy", I said as we crossed the pathway of the park.

"Daddy loves you too", he said turning and giving a peck on my cheek.

"Please, don't leave me", I said hugging him tighter from back and burying my face in the crook of his neck.

"Daddy won't leave his little girl ever", he said as we entered the driveway of our house.

But, somewhere I felt that something is gonna happen. Something wrong.

Daddy turned the door knob and walked towards the living room.

"Mommy, we're home", I exclaimed as dad put me down.

Mom entered the living room with tear stains across her face.

Had she been crying?

Her hair was messy. She looked disheartened at dad and then turned towards me.

"Kaira, go to your room. NOW!", her voice was stern and cold making me gulp hard and rush towards my bedroom.

I peeked out through a gap and listened to their conversation.

Mom walked towards dad and handed him his phone.

Dad looked at his phone and then at mom. Astonishment, hurt, guilt, embarrassment and anger beaming through his eyes.

"I read the messages. From when is this goin' on?", mom asked as she controlled herself from bursting into tears.

Dad just stood there like a statue.

"For God's sake Kartik, answer me!", mom yelled finally letting tears stream down her face.

"Since six months", dad said looking down at the floor, his eyes not able to meet mom's.

"How could you Kartik? How could you cheat on me?", mom said looking directly into dad's eyes.

Wait, dad cheated on her. What does that mean?

" Aren't you happy with me?", mom asked.

"No, I am not", dad said finally finding words to speak.

"But why Kar-", mom began to speak but dad interrupted her.

"Because of you. You didn't find time for me. All you cared was Kaira and the house. Did you ever think of my feelings? How I used to feel? I was tired of you and your behaviour. I also have feelings and to fulfill my happiness and manhood and got into this", dad said.

"You should've talked to me. This wasn't the way- Did you even think of Kaira?", mom asked.

"Don't drag my daughter for your own benefits. Don't use her as an excuse. She has nothing to do with my affair. You know what, you're just a failure. Failure as a mother, failure as a wife, failure as everything. I am glad that I got Veronica", dad said.

"So Veronica is the name of the bitch", mom said with gritted teeth.

Mommy is using bad words.

"Don't dare you call her names. I am gonna marry her very soon. And I won't tolerate anything against my future wife", dad said glaring at mom.

There was a moment of silence between them.

"I want divorce", mom declared in a choked voice, wiping her tears.

Wait. Divorce!!!

" I am glad you do", dad said and stormed out of the living room.

Mom stood there motionless. She sat on the floor with a thud and burst into tears.

What's goin' on???
