Always Only You

Part 24

Anjali learned about the news in tv from Subus dead. Also it was Lakshmi, but IshRa told her that it was an accident. The Subu was dead, Anjali did not really touch. After all, he was a stranger to her..She was sorry for Lakshmi and her son, but she herself was not touched, she did not want to talk about it anymore and Ishita was more than glad about it.

The autopsy of Subus' corpse revealed that he was dying from a craniocerebral trauma with central paralysis. It was found that it was hit by an object. ...This matched the statement of Lakshmi, who testified that she had hit Subu with a rock on the head.

In addition, the time of death matched the statement of Lakshmi. The time when Raman, Bala and Romi had found the body, fit together. Lakshmi's injury, her and the testimony of others testify that Lakshmi had acted out of self-Defense.

The prosecution charges no charge of murder or manslaughter against Lakshmi. Everyone was relieved, except  Subu"s mother. She wanted justice for her son.

Bala slowly lost patience with his mother. He knew that it hurt her, after all, she was a mother. Even him, his brother's death did not leave cold. But Subu was the sole culprit in this whole drama.

Bala formally begged his mother to finally leave it, it was over and nothing would bring Subu back. Mrs. Chandran grieved bitterly for her son and that was her right, but she should face the truth. Subu had wronged the women and that's what Bala tried to explain to his mother.

He also told his mother, that neither Raman or Ishita were responsible for the death of Subu. Lakshmi was not to blame for his death. It was an accident, she had to defend herself, because Subu wanted to raped her.

Lakshmi suffered from the death of Subu, she did not want to kill him, but she had to defend herself. Her husband was a stranger and she did not really know him, she knew that now.. It hurt her that her husband had done such terrible things.She wanted to go to Mumbai with her family as soon as possible, she just wanted to forget everything.

Subu"s corpse was released and the funeral could take place. Lakshmi did not attend the funeral and nobody from the Bhalla and Iyer families. Bala stands by his mother at the funeral.. Subu's mother had no choice, but to accept the death of Subu...... It was over!

It was November and Ishita still had 2 weeks to give birth.Everything was difficult for her ...lie, stand, walk, sit......but she could rely on Raman. He helped her where he could.

~ One morning ~

Ishita was sitting in the kitchen drinking a cup of tea when she heard the noise from the stairs. She put her fingers to her temple and began massaging her temples.

Anjali and Pihu argued again and Ishita was tired of it. She was very pregnant and lacked all patience for this cats fight between the sisters.

Anjali stormed into the kitchen, followed by Pihu ......"Mamma, she did it again, she was back at my things"

"I borrowed only the headphones, only  for a short time" Pihu Defended himself

"Oh yes, and that's why you broke it?" Snapped Anjali

"Not at all, I did not break them"

"And that's why only the left works, because you did not break them" Anjali said sarcastically

Ishita had closed her eyes and was still massaging her temples...She took a deep breath and opened her eyes. Her fingers still at her temples......"Please girls, stop arguing, get ready for school and then come for breakfast."

Anjali pouted and held out the headphones to Ishita......"The right one is broken and Pihu did it"

"No, he was already broken"
