Sanyukta...

It was ten in the night and  the silence enveloped the castle in its deadly influence.I was leaning on the window piller staring at the dark sky with few patches of clouds after the rainfall retreated.The buzzing of crickets coming from every direction was the only sound that become my solo companion in the heavy loneliness.

Its been two weeks but there was no improvement in Abbey's condition.Every time doctors repeat their same line .Mr. and Mrs. Shekhawat were staying in the hospital for the nights though Randhir asked them to stay but his dad told him to look after the business which couldn't be neglected .Still Randhir used to be at hospital in the evening hours to late night.

The cracking sound of the door made me turn back .Randhir entered in the room with the gloomy dejected face which I had been seeing from past few days.I walked up to him with a smile .

"Hey.."he tried to reverse the smile but it didn't happen.

His jell hairs had spoiled certainly he would ran his fingers through them a thousand times.The tie loosely hanged carelessly around his neck.I took off his blazer and he threw himself on the sofa closing his eyes in  order to calm his the hurricane of emotions and thoughts he was going between .

I forwarded a glass of water and sat beside him.Without speaking a word he took the glass and drank the water like a thirsty deer.

"Everything will be alright.."I rubbed my warm hands on his icy cold knuckles in order to give him some moral consolation .

"I don't know how supposed to get him better..what happens to him..?"he looked at me with teary eyes,"My brother is a fighter but now whenever I look at him..I found the fighter battling for his survival..he is in pain Sanyukta and I can't heal his wounds.."he sobbed silently.

Tears cascaded from my eyes.Two important men of my life were in pain .He wiped his tears and stared at the ceiling blankly.

"I fell disgusted about myself.I hate my past.How can I trust a horrible ugly face  disguised  in the facade of innocence..?"he said .I wiped my tears to get a clear view of him .What he meant ?

"Whom are you talking about..?"I asked him .

"I believed on her every lie..she said she loved me but the fact is she never loved me or else she wouldn't have tried to kill my brother ."he again puzzled me about the known stranger lady from his past who certainly had influenced him .

"Randhir please tell me in clear words..who is she and what is her connection in Abbey's accident..?"this time I said sharply to fetch out whole truth from his stubborn heart.

"Chloe Grayson.."his voice waved with pain and I felt if I was hallucinating.

"Yes Chloe the girl ,I wish I would never met...I really wish to go back in the dark past and erase her presence in my life.."he dug his face in his palms .I didn't had any idea how to react on the new revelation of my husband's past life .
