"What happened to her doctor... ??"Rk asked the doctor worried seeing madhu lying on the bed unconsciously... After she had fainted he tried his hard to get her into consciousness again but all failed as she remained unresponsive..

"Nothing serious Mr. Kundra, but.. "Dr. Meera jaishwal paused for a moment ..
"What's it..??" rk asked worried..
"I have a doubt.. Does ur wife use any kind of drugs...?"Dr. Meera asked him..
"What.. Drugs..??" his eyes widened in shock..

"No I meant some sort of.. Like sedatives, sleeping pills..??" Dr. Meera asked..
"I don't know.. Actually v r newly wedded.. It's not been a week.. " Rk said..
"Oh.. I think she had taken an extra dose last time..."Dr. Meera said shocking him.. When this all happened..??He didn't even know.. He hadn't seen her taking any pills or whatever.. She might have taken it when he had gone for his shower.. He assumed..
"So u r saying saying she had fainted because of this..??"Rk asked her..

"Probably.. But if u want a detailed check up then you may bring her to hospital but i don't see any need of it..."Dr. Meera said..
"No dr. It's ok.. If u r sure that she is ok, then
no problem.. "rk said with a gentle smile...
"When will she gain consciousness..??"
"In few hours & give her some light food when she wake up.. "Dr. Meera says.."& she shouldn't take that medicines again.. If she again continue this, then it will turn out to be a serious problem.. "she added..
"you meant..??" Rk asks..

"This type of medicines are for temporary ease but if she gets habituated to it, then it may affect her brain.."Dr. Meera says..
"No Dr, I will check on her.."Rk said.. Dr. Meera nodded "I may leave now.. "
"Thanks for coming dr.. "Rk said & Dr. Meera left from there..

After 2 hours

Madhu tried to open her eyes with difficulty..she felt like darkness creeping inside her eyes again...she again closed her & open it by sitting up on the bed..
What had happened to her...?? She was ok.. The last thing she remember is his furious face ..

"U woke up..??" She hears him voice mixed with anger & concern.. Seeing him glaring at her she quickly turned her gaze to the other side.. Sensing the bed is dipping down she looks up to see him sitting next to her with a bowl of vegetable soup...

"What's it..??" madhu asked frowning..
"Sorry... Now adjust with this.. By the evening I will get u what u want.. Hmm.. Vodka, wishky or drugs.. What do you prefer..?? "he asked her sarcastically..
"What.. What do you mean..? " madhu asked him, as she gawked at him..

"Am I that much annoying that you have to take this for to get sleep..? "he asked by taking a small tin from inside his tracks pocket, which is literally named as Soporific Drugs.. Madhu looked down at her lap unable to meet his sharp eyes..

"I used to take it before too, it's not bcoz of u.. "madhu says still looking down.. He didn't say anything but continued to stare at her wanting a proper answer...

"Yesterday I was too tired but I couldn't sleep so i had taken one.. "..."& why you asked this ..?"she added after a pause..
"Dr. Said that u had taken an extra dose of sleeping pill so u fainted.. "he said..
"Oh.. "she says casually..

"what  oh..??!! I can't stay here everyday like this..so u better change ur habits.. "he says arrogantly..controlling her fury she said him.. "I used to take this before too but never have fainted, I felt dizzy when i woke up but didn't care it much... I won't take it again,ok..?? "she doesn't know why she said that all to him that too in a calm way she thought is not possible before him..
"Have this.. "he passed the bowl to her & stood up to go.. "& take ur shower.. U smells eww.. "she walked away from there waving his hand near his nose which made madhu look up at him awestruck.. How dare he..?? How dare he insult her like that..? True she hadn't taken her shower this morning, she was going to take when she heard rk's phone conversation... But she indeed takes shower last night & she doesn't smell bad too, he insulted her just like that.. At that moment madhu decided that she is not gonna leave this khadoos husband of hers..

Night

Rk was sitting in the hall with lappy in his lap staring at the screen, completely involved in his work when madhu made her way to there turning on the TV, she sat on the couch opposite to it... The whole day was just tedium for her with him behind her all time of course for taunting her.. She took the remote in her & gone through all the channels..

"Stop that crap.." came his furious order which made her even furious... As a reply she pressed the volume button raising the volume..
"R u deaf.. .?? Didn't u hear what i said..??"Rk asked angrily so madhu decided to be deaf ears for a while.. Soon she felt someone snatching the remote from her & see Rk standing in front of her furiously.. She had her enough..!! She can't tolerate this anymore.. She forcefully kicked on his stomach with her right leg & he falls on his knees before her howling in pain.. She clamped his hairs & pulled it up making him wince..

"Aahh.. Leave me.. "he screamed but she bends his head & started to hit on his back violently.. He tried to get up but she stomped on his left feet & made him fall again.. She continued to kick him until he falls on the floor spent... She gave him an evil smirk..

*Snap-snap*

She breaked out of her trance when he snapped his fingers before her face.. He tossed the remote to her after reducing the volume.. She frowned at him... Damn..it was just a dream..!! She was just day dreaming of banging him.. She wished if she could do it really.. Shaking her head she continued to watch the program in a low volume... Feeling bored with the current movie that she is watching, she switched on to another channel...

'' Hum tere bin ab reh nahin sakte
Tere bina kyaa vajood meraa

I can't live without you now,
What's my existence without you..

Tujh se judaa gar ho jaayenge
To khud se hi ho jaayenge judaa

If I get separated from you,
I'll be separated from my own self..

Kyonki tum hi ho
Ab tum hi ho
Zindagi, ab tum hi ho
Chain bhi, meraa dard bhi
Meri aashiqui ab tum hi ho

Because you alone are,
Now you only are,
life. You're my life.
My peace, and my pain,
you alone are my love.. ''

Before the lyrics could continue madhu switched off the TV all of sudden.. She didn't like it a bit.. Not the song but what it remembers her.. Why everything came into the same point when she think there will be change..

***  ***  ***

Rk & madhu were having their dinner silently, giving their attention only to the food.. Madhu's eyes started to fill with tears as she munched the spicy food which is in her mouth... Waving her hand in air & making voices she tried to fetch the jug which contain water, but before she could do so someone grabbed it away from her not letting her to soothe her mouth with the cold water.. He kept the jug back after emptying it.. He did it intentionally..!! Madhu wanted to snap his head off but before that she have to drink water.. She jumped off her seat & flounced to the kitchen.. She pulled on the handled of the refrigerator in order to open it but for her hard luck it didn't open.. It's locked..!! & she very well know who did this.. She angrily marched to the hall & saw him having his like an innocent..

"Where is the key..??"she asked him curtly..
"Key..?? What key..??" he asked acting innocent..
"Refrigerator's key.. Y u locked it.. ??"madhu asked him..
"Excuse me.. This is my place & i will do whatever i pleased to, who gave u the right to question me..??"Rk asks her..
"This gave me the right.. "she said by holding her mangalsutru & he looks away not wanting to see the sign of their marriage..
"& I think as ur wife, I have the right to question u or do u have more wives to question u.. ??"she asked him..

*Thud*

The next thing she witnessed was him breaking the glass table by banging his fists on it.. She startled seeing his bleeding hand & aggressive action..
"Just get out of my life, let me be in peace.. "he yelled at her, taking out the car's key from his denim's pocket he went out off there, Leaving madhu all alone there.. She looked away as silent tears to fall down her cheeks, She was hurt, beyond belief.. He has wounded her badly, made the deep cut in heart more intense.. Even though they were fighting like mad deep in her heard there was a belief that he cares for her, at least seeing her like a human being but she was wrong... She is nothing for him & directly or indirectly he had said it too.. She can't be here anymore, with him.. If he get peace in his life with her depart then she is ready to do it.. With the all dignity & self-respect she possess she decided to go away from him...

Madhu was packing her stuffs when she noticed something under the side table, out of curiosity she went there & bending a little she takes the same diary which she had seen a day before... But how it came there...?? It was inside his wardrobe last night.. To get the answers for the question which r popping up in her mind, she opened the diary..

***   ***   ***

"U have really gone mad, Rk.. "sikky said angrily by cleaning the wound in his hand with antiseptic..
"U know what she had asked me..??"Rk asked with the same expression as of sikky..

"What's her mistake in that.. U were not treating her as a human.. So what else she should think about ur aggressive attitude towards her.. ??"sikky asked by dressing the wound with cotton band.. When Rk remained silent sikky asked "Isn't she told truth..??"

***   ***   ***

Madhu closed her eyes as tears rolled down her eyes, this time uncontrollably..
She got each & every reason behind his hatred towards her... She was forced into his life by his parents & love can't be obtained by force.. It's a feeling that one should feel to other by himself/herself... She knows the pain of lost love & she doesn't want him to go through that.. Let him live with his wife happily, with Mrs. Deepali Rishab kundra..
