Why? Why Now?

After 5 Years!

They haven't had a glance/trace of each other, throughout these years. The only thing which grew was his hurt towards her which he thought was his hate towards her. He has been very much aware of the articles circulating of her dating many guys like Karthik A, Gautam, Rajkumar, and many more, which made him more angry on her. But deep down he knew those were articles and no statement from her. She has been working with them, they were her co-stars. Hence he always convinced himself that they were bigger face then him in the industry and were of her age too that's why she was happy with them.

He covered the length of his room for the nth time as he waited impatiently for a reply from the woman his family thought was apt to be his daughter's mother. He had avoided and firmly rejected all their efforts to find him a bride. Everything changed last month when Siya had come up to him for her birthday gift and he promised her that he would bring the world at her feet. Her reply had broken him.

Siya- I don't want the world papa, I just want a mother.

 A click on his phone brought him out of his thoughts. He sighed and opened the message:

*I don't know how to thank you enough for the proposition. I need a child to call my own and the adoption centre won't give a child to a single mother. You are doing a great favour to me by allowing your daughter to be a part of my life. I think I have fallen in love with her already. And about the papers, please send them over to my manager, I'll sign them. Had you not proposed this, I would have done it myself. And don't worry about the complications post marriage; I don't have my heart with me to give it to anyone. You don't have to forget your wife's memories. Once again thank you *

1 month later :

He stood by the door of his own room contemplating whether to enter or not. Everything had gone smoothly, he was informed by his PA that the woman had signed the documents and he had not bothered anymore. He attended his wedding like a guest but post wedding his family including Siya wanted him to do things their way despite knowing that this was only a formality he fulfilled to bring her a mother. And he wasn't complaining, the glow on her face whenever she talks about her Sanu (a lot these days) proved his decision right. He would only deal with this drama for tonight and will be back in control of his world from tomorrow. With this he opened the door and entered.

He heard a click behind that confirmed that the door was locked from outside "damn, those idiots" he muttered under his breath. He looked up hoping to clear the air for a small discussion with (damn again he didn't even know her name). She was standing by the window with her back towards him; he cleared his throat and she turned.

He stumbled, and quickly held the door for support. He stood immobile for ages, the shock in his face mirrored in hers. She covered her mouth with both her palms afraid of the bile rising in her stomach.

 No, this couldn't be happening. He blinked to make sure of what he saw. He recognised her, 5 years had only made a true woman out of a girl, but it couldn't hide those haunting eyes from him.  Life couldn't be so unfair to him. He had never asked for all the happiness in the world, only some peace and the woman who snatched away all the peace out of his life couldn't give him that. The woman who had been his blessing and his curse; his happiness and his destruction was back to snatch away whatever little happiness he had gathered around him in all these years. No, he won't let that happen, history wouldn't be repeated. It was his world now and he ruled it, he would kill her.
