Love me, or Hate me

part 28

Before mahir and bel went home, he took a detour to her sister's house. Bel surprise asks what he was doing. He told her, she hasn't seen her sister in a while so he will allow it. Bel had asked why now when she's not properly dressed.

" your sister has spare clothes for you to wear, I would hate to see mom seeing you come home looking like this." He says

Bel sigh, she knew he was right. She would question her what happend to her clothes, she didn't want to tell her the humiliation she faced. She sighs before looking at Mahir, his hand we're tightly holding the steering wheel. He looks very angry right now for some reason.

She decided silence was the best option.

Mahir driving was lost in memory lane. It was the day of the operation after he won the fight in America. He had paid for the surgery of the girl he fell for at the hospital. He told her he will come back for her after and for her not to forget the promise they made to marry.

She had a smile and let go of his hand before they drag her to the operating room. Mahir waiting, got a call from his dad to come to his job. He had told his dad he was busy. His dad told him to come back with a stern voice.

Mahir upset asks one of the nurses to call him when it goes well. Apparently, his dad has been getting a threat letter from his little activity.

" This is the third time this has been happening. If you want a good life for your mom. Quit this ridiculous game of yours and get ready to leave for London."

Mahir's surprise told his father he can't leave, who will take care of his mom. He thought about his promise to his girlfriend, but then he promises his dad to run the business if he gives him the money for his mom's medical bill.

Mahir didn't want to leave, but a promise was a promise. He decided then and there that in a year he will come back and then she will be waiting.

" your mom is not a kid, I will have one of your stepmoms to look after her. You just focus on getting your business degree" he said

Agreeing, Mahir never got the chance to say goodbye to his mom. The next day he left. There was no one to wish him goodbye. Not even his father. He sadly boards the plane And left. He was not too happy to go to a foreign place, where he knew nobody.

Back to the present, when they pulled up to her sister's house, they were shocked. Graffiti was everywhere. Bel didn't know what was going on, she got out of the car and ran to her sister's door.

Knockin, she held her breath while worrying. When the door opens, she saw rocky with a bat, rocky was happy to see her. He ushered her in and told her Shivani was upset.

Bel wasted no time and ran upstairs. When she got there she spotted her sister looking at her window. " didi" she says

Shivani turns to look at her " bel! W...what are you doing here" she asks wiping her tears

" We were around so I decided to borrow something from you"

Shivani gets up " oh what is it" she sniffs

Bel worried asks her what is wrong and what is going on. Shivani said nothing. Bel didnt by it. She said someone wrote nasty things on your house and parking lot, it cant be nothing.

Shivani sigh, she told bel how she's been harassed for a while. Someone keeps following her, they called her a whore and slut. They claim she cheated for some reason. She told bel shes never done something like that. She also said they went as far as to destroy rocky garage and workplace.

" did you call the police"

Shivani shook her head " apparently they have no lead, it's like the person made sure to leave no evidence"

Bel looking at her sister felt bad. She didnt knows this was happening to her this whole time. Her eyes suddenly widen, " you look different didi"

"I guess its because I'm stressed out"

" no, you look bigger"

Shivani looking at bel smile " I totally forgot to tell you, I'm pregnant"

Bel's eyes widen " that's great news. Now we are both going to be mothers" she says happily

Shivani became quiet. Seeing bel so happy, she didnt know how to tell her. " bel" she started

" what is it didi"

" the thing is your n-"

Suddenly mahir voice was heard. He was asking bel if she's ready to go. He said his mom must be worried sick.

" I'm coming," she says

Bel asks Shivani if she could wear one of her saris. Shivani agreed.

A few minutes later, they were in the car. Bel told Shivani that she wishes she could stay. She said she would never want her sister to go through this alone. She said she will come the next day to keep her company. Rocky told her, she needs the company right now, especially with the baby coming along.

When he said this, he puts his hand on her stomach. Bel looking felt a little saddened, while mahir looked annoyed.

After saying their goodbyes and went home another fight broke loose between the two. Mahir not wanting to look bad in front of his mom, lifts bel bridal style, and took her inside. She didnt think he would help her for the second time today. She blushed while her hands wrapped around his neck.

Mahir going up the stairs says " you decided to make decisions without my consent, did I say I wanted to go to your sister house"

Bel became nervous " I just thought we could give them our support"

Mahir squeezes her thigh a bit harder " support....why should you give it to them, when you dont even give it to me"

" Y...y...you dont ask for it"

"you're my wife, I shouldn't have to ask for support. You're supposed to give it"

Now bel was upset "you're lecturing me about things that even you dont do. Everything I do is wrong, and you're always right.

" if I'm not right, who else will be. You obviously dont have the brains for it" he says now in their room.

Bel told him to put her down. Mahir told her he will gladly do so. He drops her, causing the pain she had on her foot to throb. Almost in tears, she looks at him "I hate you"

" good... It's mutual"

Bel gets up, she told him she won't sleep in their room, but instead, sleep downstairs. Mahir didnt care, but then he remembered his mom. He didnt want her to see bel sleeping downstairs. " you're not going anywhere"

He closes the door so she won't go. Huffing, she moves and he follows. She grabs her pillow and blanket before spreading it on the floor. Mahir sigh with frustration.

It was during the middle of the night, mahir woke up. Mahir at night w to bel making noises while asleep. Irritated, he got up and pick her up. " since you want to sleep out, I will take you out.

As soon as he was outside of their room, bel woke up. She made a fuss and told him to put her down. Mahir tired, obligate, before he could say something, she quickly ran into the room and close it. Surprised by this, he knocks for her to open. Bel refused, she says since you won't let me sleep downstairs, you will instead. She compliments herself for the plan before going to the bed to sleep.
