SLS#7# The Irresistible Aviatrix

Hope And Future

Ian's POV

" I can't see her like that. She is again losing herself in darkness." Vivan said and I sighed.

I myself know how does it feel. I am dying inside and she is the mother. Even I can't feel how deeply she is hurt. No one can feel it until they go through these kind of situation. I wish no one goes through this kind of situation ever. It hurts as hell to be exact. It's worst and feels like living hell. What have we ever done to be hurt like this again and again!!! Why are we suffering like this all the time!!! I don't know why God was punishing us like that.

" I am sorry, Ian. If only I didn't start to talk to you about things that day then this won't happen. I am sorry. I am so sorry." Marie said and I sighed.

" It was mean to happen. I am not holding you in fault, Marie." I said to her. She sighed deeply.

" I am going to cut all my relations with her. I don't want to see her face ever." She said.

" Don't do that. She is your mother." I said to her.

" She doesn't deserve to be called a mother." She said.

" Still. You go home." I said to her.

" Ian is right, Marie. You go home." Diya said.

" But Diya, I don't want to go home and face her. She has ruined everything. For her Divya is suffering like this today. She tried to kill her and she killed my unborn niece or nephew. Now she is responsible for my baby nephew's death. You know, I can't sleep. Keiran's face keeps coming in my mind. We lost him. Damn it!! You know how excited we were!! Now we have lost one of them. How can I forgive her like that?! She is the bloody reason behind everything." She said and I sighed.

" Still... You need to be there at home. With your family. No matter what she has done she is still your mother, Marie." Vivan said and she sighed.

" I don't want to go home now. I will go back tomorrow morning. Please, stop talking about that lady now. Otherwise I will lose my control over my anger. I am not at all doing good with that currently." She said.

" Ok, come with me and have dinner then sleep. Don't sleep in empty stomach." Diya said to her. " You too, Chhoti." She called Aradhya.

" I am not feeling like eating anything now, Dee. I will have something later." Aradhya said and I sighed.

" No excuses." Diya said. " Mrs. Brooks!!" She called the housekeeper.

" Yes, ma'am!!" She said.

" Please go and see where Rahul, Rudra, Olivia, Atharv and Aarushi are. Tell them the dinner is served and they have to have it." Diya said and she left with them.

" What are you thinking about?" Vivan asked me.

" Nothing. What is left to think? He is gone now. We can't bring him back anyways." I said to him sighing deeply.

" But you still have your daughter and she needs your love and care. She is just a kid who suffered a severe situation since she was born. If you guys keep acting like this you will lose her too. Damn it!!!" He said angrily and I sighed.

His anger is valid here. But I just can't remove that from my mind. We lost our kids. Two of them. I don't know what use of having billions if I can't protect my kids. I am willing to give away all my money I have earned but can someone bring my kids back to me!!! I know it's not possible. Money can't buy everything. No, it can't.

" You should go and talk to Divu. You know she needs your love and support now in this condition. Why are you sitting here?!! You are hurting both of you. I can't understand what is bothering you now?" He asked me.

" I can't face her. I have failed to protect my kids. I promised her I will protect her and our kids from every evil eyes but I failed to do that. I don't know how to face her now. She is hurt but I couldn't do anything about it." I said to him.

" You are a certified stupid. You had nothing to do with that. The babies were born prematured. They had to go through this. You have to understand that. Neither you nor her was in fault. You guys should hold back just for your daughter. She still needs her parents. Don't be foolish, Ian. Come on. You can't be like that all the time. You have to move on. You yourself told awhile back that you can't bring him back, right? Then why are you guys punishing yourself?! You should come out of it, Ian. It's time to come out of that shell. You have to. Think about it." Vivan said. I sighed deeply. He was right. We should move on. We can't bring him back anyways. He will not come back even if we mourn for years.

" Hmm.." I responded.

" What's with hmmm... Go. Check what Divu is doing? I can't see her suffering like that. I have never let her get hurt a bit but now she is hurt a big time but I can't do anything about it. Damn it!!!" He said and I sighed big time. It's true.

I stood up and walked upstairs to our room. I found Ganga and Karan along with Sanam sitting next to Divya. She was looking pale. Why won't she?!! She barely has eaten anything these days. She will wake up in the middle of the night screaming having cruel nightmares then will start to cry. Nothing will be able to stop her then. It's horrible to see her like this. Her state is scaring me now. She again needs to take those medicines that the psychiatrist suggested her. I am dying inside seeing her like this.

" Is she sleeping?" I asked Sanam.

" Yes, just has slept awhile back." She said.

" You guys go and have dinner. Where is Darsh and Keira?" I asked her.

" Both are with Amma and Appa." She said.

" Ok then. You guys take rest now." I said and they left.

I sat next to her and ran my fingers through her hair. She opened her eyes and looked at me sadly. I kissed on her hand.

" Ian!!" She said and tears slipped down her cheek. I wiped it.

" It's high time to move on, Babe. We have to do that for our daughter. She is our hope and future." I said and she kept looking at me without saying anything.
