"N..No" she whispered, still looking at the ground in a daze. She felt the tremors running through her body while she spoke. "What do you mean by no?" the opposition lawyer asked in a disgusted tone. "I am sorry your excellency, but I am sick of her behaviour now. She not only tried to end her life, but also risk the life of my child. Hiding her identity and separating my own child is not acceptable. I will no longer tolerate such attitudes and tantrums. So, I would politely like to request to hold the full custody of my child once he or she is born." Dev's voice cut daggers in her heart. "NOO! I don't agree with that.... You can't do this to me." Her voice stammered as she wiped her tears away and looked around devastatingly. "You can't take my child away from me..... it's mine..... I am the mother of this child..... It's all I have.....I can't...d-do this..." she shook her head negatively while the judge took off her glasses and sighed tiredly. "I am sorry Ms Sonakshi..... This time, I am afraid that the law isn't under your favour. The child will lawfully be given to Dev Sharma due to your misconduct and unstable mindset at this moment. However, you may always appeal again in future if you feel that your situation is better" "But Mam.... I can't-" "Sorry Ms Sonakshi! It's too late" "Dev......please..." "I am sorry Sona. You asked for this." His heartless voice was the last thing she heard before she lost conscious infront of the whole crowd. ----------------- Be prepared for to heal yourself in this heartbreaking journey!
