Two days passed in a blur and in these days, Disha was spending most of her days outside. I have proof with myself but...I wonder that when Disha suggested the idea of having "proofs" then she must have a stronger plan.
But want she want to proof?
I looked at my video clip and smiled. Just few minutes more and mom will call us to reaval the truth.
"Are you ready, Priya?" Shakshi and Radhika entered inside the room.
"Yup!" I nodded. "But I am afraid that what proof Disha has."
"Maybe she realised that Viraj dumped her and that's why she couldn't gather any proof." Radhika said.
"Maybe...."
.
We came out of the room and saw mother-in-law sitting on the couch with the aunts beside her. I took a seat near her as Disha came out.
"Am I late?" She asked and hurriedly sat beside her mom.
"Are you both ready with it?" Mom asked as I nodded.
"Why don't you go first, sister-in-law?" Disha suggested and without saying anything further, I played the video.
After watching the video as expected, everyone's mouth was wide open and mom's reaction is worth seeing.
"D-Disha... you..?"she turned towards Disha with anger and hatred. Disha should also feel bad as Viraj dumped her.
Unexpectedly she smirked and said. "Are you done with showing your proof?"
"Yes." I replied and turned off my video and sat on the couch. Disha sighed and stood up.
"Sister-in-law, I may hate you but you are elder than me and I use to respect you also. You are modern and like a fighter, but...I never expected this from you. I'm sorry for reavaling this but if you haven't brought up this matter, everything would have been fine. I'm sorry....and I apologise to everyone." she said with disappointment.
What the hell is she talking about?
"What are you talking about Disha?" I asked. Without replying she showed some pictures in which I was giving money to Viraj.
What the-?
"To prove me wrong, you gave money to him?" She asked, with fake hurt.
"What?! Hey, it's not like what it's showing and I indeed offered him money because he was refusing to tell the truth!" I said.
"How much will you lie?" She said with tears "And if you don't believe it then I've other proof."
"What proof..?" I asked.
"Please forgive me everyone" she looked towards everyone and went to open the door. Everyone was dumbstruck and me too. I don't know what's left to prove now.
She opened the door and surprisingly Viraj was standing there and came inside.
"Why is he here?" Mother-in-law stood up.
"Mom, I brought him here as without him I couldn't prove my innocence." Disha said.
We all looked at Viraj as he was staring at the floor. He didn't dare to look up nor say anything.
"Viraj, tell the truth!" Disha said to him as he sighed.
"Yes, Manpriya came to me to offer me money and say that me and Disha is in a relation. I refused at first but when she threatened me I thought that its not a good option to refuse her and the money so I took it. But I don't have any relation with Disha and she is no more than my classmate." He said, making me shock.
"What the hell are you saying? We all know what type of boy are you so better stop acting!" I shouted.
"Calm down, sissy-in-law." Disha smirked at me. "The truth is yet to come."
"What's left now?" Father-in-law sighed.
"Viraj." Disha gestured to him as he nodded.
"The truth is I don't love Disha but.... Manpriya." He said, causing everyone to yell.
"WHAT THE HELL?!" I shouted.
"And not only that Manpriya also loves me and promised not to leave me. When she got married, I was upset but she still used to meet me secretly and I also often come here at night to meet her. From some days she seems upset and when I asked her about it, she said that we should stop meeting each other.
Of course she got a better family so why will she need me? She also want me to make a fake video to trick Disha. I knew she is my classmate and even Manpriya no longer want me so I refused. That's why she offered me money and warned not to tell anyone about our relationship.... That's all." he said as I receive a slap from my mother-in-law.
"M-Mom, he is lying! I never knew him before marriage nor I talked to him! It's all a trick! Please believe me!" I cried. Everyone was looking at me with hatred and yet no one came to save me... except her.
"Mom, Manpriya can't do this. We should'nt blame her. What if it's not what it look like?" Shakshi came forward.
"You better don't interfere in this! And first she tried to blame Disha and then her affairs...what a shame!" Mrs Chauhan said with hatred and there I was sitting on the floor, crying.
"I don't believe all this. Manpriya is not that kind of girl and maybe it's Disha's pl-"
"Shakshi! If you speak another word then I'll send you to your father's house, remember that." Mrs Chauhan warned her.
"Mom, now you understood that it's not me?" Disha said, her face has a sudden glow and Viraj was happy too.
"Send this boy out, Disha and I shouldn't see his face again!" Mrs Chauhan said as she nooded. Viraj looked at me and then left from the house.
"Mom, trust me-"
"I'M NOT YOUR MOM! You are not worthy to be called as daughter-in-law and daughter? Never!" Mrs Chauhan said angrily.
"But I didn't do anything. It's not my fault!" I said.
"I also thought that... that's why I trusted you but you proved me wrong. And how can I suspect my own daughter? Disha maybe be a grumpy type and gets angry easily but she is not a slut like you!" She said as tears started flowing down from my eyes.
"M-Mom, how could You-"
"It's my fault that I chose you for my son. Indeed, who knew that a devil is hiding behind this pretty face." Her face is now full of guilt, angry and hurt.
"I'm not devil nor I dumped Anant. There's no relation between Viraj and me. Please believe me...it's not my fault... please mom." I begged. Everyone was silent. She looked at me and pulled me up.
"Enough! I don't want any more rumours. It's better if you leave our family." She held my hand and forcefully pushed me outside the house.
"I don't care if you go to Viraj or die. Go anywhere but don't come back. I'll talk to your parents after Anant will come back and manage a divorce paper." she said.
"N-NO, don't do that mom. Give me another chance to prove my innocence." I begged.
"You don't deserve that. Get lost!" With that she closed the door. I banged it and kept pleading her to open it...to believe me...to give me another chance to prove.
I never knew that I have to see this day in my life. What will Anant think of me? Will he also refuse to believe me? Is the door of Chauhan family closed forever for me? Is this the end of my marriage life?
Tears rolled down from my cheeks as I fell on my knees. Soon it's started raining and my vision got blurred and slowly I lost my conscious.
