I CAN'T FORGET YOU ✅

20. Ashamed!!

Raghav's POV

"Dad...dad...wh...what happened to her??
Where is she??" I asked in panic as I entered in Sia's home.

When dad called me to tell that Sia has fainted in her room, I made my way straight to her house without any delay.

"Calm down Raghav, she is in her room, doctor is examining her." He said.

Just then the doctor came down after Checking her.

"How's she?" Dad asked.

"Mr. Mukherji, she had a panic attack, a very severe one. Due to it, her BP has shot up, her pulse is also high. This is the reason she got unconscious. I have injected the medicine. It will help in stabilising her vitals." Doctor explained.

"How much time it will take her to regain consciousness?" I asked.

"At least 9-10 hours. But Mr. Mukherji, Raghav, I am advising you to not stress her with anything. This condition of hers is only due it. Try and make her happy." He said and went out.

"Dad I want to see her right now.....". As I was ascending the stairs, Karthik held my hand, "you can't meet her." He said and started dragging me towards the main door.

I was confused at his statement and when he was pulling me with him, I jerked my hand away from his and yelled at him.
"What the hell karthik?? What are you trying to do?"

"Yes, that's what I want to ask you too. What are you trying to do Raghav?" He said while yelling at me.

One second.........did he just take my name.
He had never addressed me by my name. He always calls me jiju or bhaiya.....but Raghav.

"KARTHIK......is this the way to talk to your elders? He is your brother in law." Dad shouted at him while raising a hand on him.

"NO DAD.....he is no one to me. I have no relation with him from now onwards." Karthik said to dad while shooting daggers at me.

"But Karthik, what happened? At least tell me my mistake." I tried to calm him down.

"Mistake? (Sarcastic chuckle) Don't call it a mistake Mr. Raghav Jindal. You have committed a sin. You have done the sin of coming in my Di's life. You have ruined her life.
The day since you entered her life, she has only faced problems." Karthik was just taking out all his anger on me.

"Enough of this Karthik. You are crossing your line. You have no right to talk like this." Dad again shouted at him.

"Why Naveen? What's wrong in that? Karthik is stating the truth." Mom came down from Sia's room and stood beside Karthik.

"Shilpa?....." Dad was saying but Karthik again interrupted him. "Why? You forgot? First time, when she met you in Manali, she got stuck in the storm. Then after your marriage with her, due to your mistakes she got into an accident and lost her memory with her baby. Then that day too, due to your carelessness, you both got injured in the car. And now, again because of you she is in this condition laying unconscious."

"If ever I had any power, I would have wished that Sia did not marry you Raghav." Mom said with teary eyes and these were last words I would ever want to listen.

At this time everyone was silent. Karthik and mom were glaring at me with tear filled eyes. Their eyes were describing the pain they were in. And dad, he was standing still, hanging his head low. I think he too thinks the same about me.

My family was sad. They were ashamed of me. The same mother who once gave her precious daughter to me, is now cursing me. The little boy who once took me as his idol, is now angry on me.

Suddenly, I lost my balance and fell on floor. This all was too much for me to digest.

I got blank for sometime. My brain stopped working and when I came back to my senses, all I could do was cry.
Tears started rolling down my cheeks. At first it was a quite sob but when it became a loud wailing, I too didn't realise.
"I....i....(sob) I did all of this. This (hiccup)....this....is...all....be...because of me. I am....not....good...(sob) good...for her. I...i..will go away from her l...life." I was stuttering and blabbering.
Saying this I got up and without any delay rushed out of her house, got into my car and drove off.

Sia's dad POV

When Raghav rushed out of the house, I tried to stop him but he was in no condition to listen anything.

At this time, I was hell angry at Karthik and Shilpa. Today they have crossed all the limits. How could they speak like this to him. I can understand that they both love Sia but......

What is Raghav's mistake. All this was just written in their fate.

"Shilpa, you should not have said that." I said.

"I did nothing wrong." She said.

"Shilpa, it was me who told Raghav to introduce Amyra as his wife in front of Sia, so that out of jealousy she could understand her feelings for him. But I had no idea that it could backfire like this. I am sorry." I tried to explain.

"Still, it was he who executed all this na. I don't know anything Naveen, just clean up this mess you both have created. I can't see my doll like this. You know she was happy, she was like before. She had again started liking Raghav, loving him but you both ruined everything. The day since she got to know about his wife, she was again sinking into depression." Shilpa said and took a seat on the couch.

I stood beside her and patted her head.

"I...I can't see her...like...this. It...it...hurts." She started crying like hell.

"Aunty! Uncle! What happened? And why are you crying Aunty? Where is Sia....and Raghav? I have been calling him since one hour but he is not picking it up." Just then Amyra entered and started shouting questions at us.
(Typical Amyra).

"Don't talk to me amyra. I never thought you would do anything like this." Shilpa said in anger.

"Don't scold her, it's not her fault. She knew nothing about it." I tried to explain.

"What's happening?" She asked in confusion and I narrated the whole story to her.

"Don't worry Aunty......I have a plan." Amyra said and explained everything.

"No Amyra, Sia will not believe it." I said to her.

"Trust me uncle she would." She said and barged into Sia's room followed by me and Shilpa.

*************************

Raghav's POV

Mom and Karthik were right.
Everything is happening because of me. I am a bad omen for Sia.

Since the day I met her, everything around her is going wrong.

"Sia....Sia...oh my love....I (hiccup)...I am sorry....I have al...always (hiccup)...given you worries and prob (hiccup)....problems.
Make one more drink for me."

"Sir, it's 11.00 o'clock. I can't serve you more. It's time to close the bar."

"I don't....CARE. Just serve me."

Tring...tring..

"Sir your phone is ringing.
Sir...SIR...."

(Phone conversation)...
"Hello!"
.
"Mam, I am Bunty."
.
"I am a bartender."
.
"Yes....yes he is here, but he is drunk."
.
"Blue moon bar, Connaught Place."
.
"Ok."

'OK', this was the last word, I heard, before darkness engulfed me.
