The Story of Her Life✔️ (Completed)

34.💎

"Bye mumma" Abir and Maisa both waved their hands in air and said to her mother while entering the gate of school.

"Bye beta(dear), Be nice kids..." Anupama said a little louder as they both were a little far away from her.

She dropped both of them to the school and moved towards the market to buy some vegetables. She was walking but her mind was stucked on place. She was just thinking about the fight of kids in their school.

Sahil handle your kids, I'm moving out of it......

Her words were echoing in her mind, 'how easily Sahil handled the stubbornness of Abir, and now they both are fighting for their father's existence, our fate!" She thought all these things while taking a deep breath in and let it out. She bought vegetables from market and started marching towards the home.

This was her daily routine which took almost 30-40 minutes. She reached home.

Reaching near, she slit the key in the lock of main door to unlock it but found it already opened. Her heart again jumped as she felt something awkward she swiftly move inside to check if everything fine. That was the distance of atmost 10 steps but her heart beated ten thousand times in same, she wasn't able to tolerate any other  problem and sorrow in her life.

As she came near the living room she found Seema, Ruhi, Aashu and his mother sitting on the sofa. She took a relief breath, everything was looking perfectly fine. Then her gaze went on other sofa, there were three people sitting on that. Only the back side of theirs heads were visible, it was clear that there were 2 men and a Colleen.

She took two steps further and Ruhi was the first who recognised the presence of Anupama.

"Bhabhi came back" She almost yelled

Anupama was amazed on Ruhi's reaction, she saw everyone's face.
Seema was crying, Aashu and his parents was in the state of shock, but Ruhi was smiling. All the matter was out of Anupama's mind.

But after listening Ruhi's words suddenly a man from three of those people, made himself stand and turned towards Anupama.
Anupama's heart skipped a beat. not a beat but thousands of beat.
The bags of vegetables which she was holding tightly in her hands slipped down, as her body didn't felt any power in it. Everyone's gaze was fixed on both of them, Anupama's legs were captured by the floor, she wasn't able to move a single inch.
He took slow steps towards her, and both of them were in the front of each other after a moment
"A... Ann.. Anu...." a shivering voice came out of his lips which made her body shivered

She closed her eyes tightly and many tears which she was holding in her eyes from last many months escaped.

"Anu open your eyes" his voice rang in Anupama's ears and she felt his hand cupping her dull cheek. A totally different wave of sensation ran in her lifeless body. She felt her heart jumping in her chest as so his.

"Anu... Come to your senses" His voice again echoed in her deaf ears and she opened her eyes to see his face.

"You... Wher.... Whaa..." She tried to asked many questions but words didn't came out from his mouth, tears were flowing endlessly, he cupped her both cheeks, When his warm hands touched her cold cheeks she felt rest in her heart.

He hugged her and her hands moved towards his back to held him without thinking about all the people who were sitting in the living room and looking at them. They both embraced each other and every one averted their gaze from them except Ruhi.

Anupama was crying badly with hiccups and he was crying silently. Both were just feeling each other. Anupama's body was numb, her legs refused to hold her weight, and she just wanted to sit down, but his arms held her tightly. He was the first who realised the presence of his mother and others near them, he tried to break the hug but couldn't as the grip of her arms was enough strong around him. A smile formed on his lips.
"Is this my same bashfull Anu who never like to even hold my hand in presence of mummy" He said in whispered and Anupama realised about the closeness between both them. Her gaze went to Seema, then Aashu's parents all of them looking here and there. Aashu's gaze was fixed on floor and Ruhi, she was looking at both of them.
Anupama took two steps back with lowered eyes as she was feeling a little embarrassed.
