Twenty three - Bad day ends good
Shakshi's Pov
He is the person who made me loose my hope in love. He is the one who prisoned me within my own shell. He is the one who left me heartlessly. He is the one who threw me in streets. He is the one who brought tsunami in my happy life.
The betrayer! The cold hearted man! The venomous snake! The back stabber! The monster of my life!
My Father!
I am seeing him now after five years I guess. After he broke all my trust! That day, I still remember it picture by picture. The day which gives me nightmare! The day I cried most! The day I lost my hope on people!
I wanted to never see him again in my life. But here he is! I hate him! Each and every cell in my body hates him!!
My eyes went wide. My palms getting all sweaty. I can feel my heart pounding in my chest! My heart races when he found me and took steps towards me. I stepped backwards.
I wanted to run far away from him. But my body is shivering which made it barely for me to move.
My mom said that he was threatening for the document for last few months. I never expected him to pay me a visit in person for my signature.
I could see two of my relatives standing with him. I hate everyone. I was about to turn on my heels and run. But luck wasn't on my side this time.
He gripped my wrist and hissed at me. His grip was still tightening that it will break my hand. I tried to wiggle my hand which broke my bangles and abraded my skin. Tears brimmed at my eyes. No Shakshi! You are not going to show him that you are weak!
I managed to get some courage and looked straight into his eyes. His eyes were the deadliest thing I had ever seen. But the fact is that I love and trusted this man from the day I born. Funny! Isn't it?
His eyebrows were raised and his sharp glare made me to crumble into a ball. His nostrils were flarring with anger.
"Don't create a scene. Just come with me." he spatted with disgust.
I shook my head 'No', words failing me. My mouth is all dry.
He dragged me towards him. His hand tightening and his nails digging into my flesh. The pain was too much. I used my other hand to uncurl his fingers, but in vain. This monster is like a huge ugly potato sack. I barely move his muscle.
"He-lp" the words barely came out a wishper.
One of my uncle who came with him came to my side and gripped my arm and signaled me to move. I'm nothing infront of this two bulk animals. Howmuch I tried to stand still is of no use. They are practically dragging me.
I'm simply struck at the moment. I don't know what to do. My mind is all shut and I can't think straight.
Dr. Sharath was just entering the hospital. He was about to pass us.
"Ssiirrr..." I tried.
He stoped and came towards me but his smile fade when his eyes glance the scene. He made quick steps and reached me. He could sense some tension in the air as he looked my father who was dragging me literally.
"Shakshi? You okay?" his voice was full of concern.
"Sssiiirrrr..." I tried to speak but it started to get dizzy.
"I'm her father. She is fine. Move from the way." my father said plainly.
"Sir but... She doesn't look well!" Dr.Sharath said looking at my father's grip on my hand.
"Its our problem. We will take care of her. Who are you to question us?" my uncle hissed at him.
"Walk" my father whispered at me.
"No. Pleaasseee...Noo.." I murmurred.
My uncle's hand tightening at my arm which would leave me a contusion. Why do these people are being so harsh?
"I'm a surgeon working here. Wait sir! We have some security issues. You can't behave like this to our student." Dr. Sharath tried to explain calmly.
"What security issues? I'm her father and these people are her uncles. We don't have time to answer you." my father snapped at his face.
"Is he your father, Shakshi?"
I just nodded at him.
"Do you want to go with them?" he asked again.
"No!" I shook my head.
"Why? How dare you are to say like this after owning my proerty. You sick girl! Come with me orelse..." my father boomed and dragged me further.
"Wait sir! You are creating unwanted scene for your daughter! Lets sit and talk." Dr. Sharath placed his palm on my father's chest in an attempt to stop him.
"What nonsense? Who are you to stop me? You idiot!" he ducked Dr. Sharath's hand hastly.
This made me angry. Dr. Sharath took his phone and texted someone while I was arguing with my father.
"Stop it! I'm not coming with you. He is my proffosour. Don't speak to him like that!" I hissed back at him.
"How dare you raise your voice against me? You cheat!" my father gave me hard slap on my cheek suddenly.
I wasn't expecting that so I stumbled back few steps clutching my hand on my cheek. It was like as if my skin was set on fire. Hot tears rolled down. But I didn't fell as my uncle was still gripping my arm. I can hear ringing sounds.
"Shakshi!" Dr. Sharath tried to reach me. He didn't expect this either.
But my another uncle steped between me and Dr. Sharath.
"Sir. Please! This is family problem. We will deal with this. Please stay out of our buisness." he tried to divert him by pacifying him.
"But..." Dr. Sharath looked at my with pitty tried to rescue me from this situation.
"Why are you showing this much interest in her? Is she more than a student for you? I really astonished with her skills. Just like her cheap mother! Luring men into her trap!" my father cut him off.
And thats the end of all my senses. Adrenaline rushed in all veins in my body. Rage was ignited within me.
"How dare you? You moron!" I threw my fist at my father's face.
But he captured it as if nothing and pushed my hand away. He raised his hand to slap me again. I closed my eyes waiting for another harsh blow. Tears trickling down. But I felt nothing. But I was not ready to open my eyes.
I just felt a shadow was felt on me blocking the bright background in my closed eyes. I felt someone was standing infront of me.
"Who the hell are you?" my father shouted at the person standing in front of me.
"She is my lover!" the voice was so determined.
I opened my eyes to see Pratvik standing infront of me gripping my father's forearm preventing it to slap me.
"Lover?" my father laughed at him, then he continued, "You are just a b*tch!"
Pratvik punched him right in my father's face. He deserved it. But I don't want Pratvik to be dragged into our family issue. So I clutched his shirt from behind wispering at him.
"Please stop! He is my father!" my legs are trembling and I leaned against his back. My face burried in his shirt and I was sobbing. My action made him to stiffen a second and just lower his gaze at me over his shoulder. Then turned to look at my father.
He chose to pull my father's collar without threwing another punch.
"Whoever you might be, I don't care! Touch her again and I will give you a reason to die rather to live after that." Pratvik warned him and pushed him back.
My father was also in a shock. He didn't expect someone this strong and caring who stands by my side.
The security has arrived and my father just decided to back up. He just stormed out of the hospital followed by my uncles.
I was at the brim of all my emotions. A crowd was formed around us. I felt many set of eyes glaring and whispering at me. My head was spinning around. Blood was gushing in my ears. More tears stained his shirt wet. I grabbed more of its fabric into my palm.
"Shakshi." he cooed at me trying his best not to scare me. But I flinched. I don't know why I am being too emotional. Audible cries left my mouth.
He turned slowly facing me. I uncurled my fingers from gripping his shirt and covered my face.
"Hey baby! I'm here! Ssshhhh..." his hands placed softly on my shoulders.
But my legs are like a jelly. I can't feel them actually. So I let myself fall on him. He snaked his arm around me.
"Sshhhh... Its going to be okay... Shakshi? Look at me! Sweetpie!"
I just sobbed like a child.
He suddenly lifted me in a bridal style. I held my arms around his neck and buried my face at the crook of his neck. I pushed the fact that the people in the hospital are watching me! I don't mind! I just need him. Thats it! I inhaled deeply and let out a sob, closing my eyes!
I want this day to never happened. I wish the one waiting for me in the reception wouldn't be my father. I will reverse this day if I could! But the bitter reality is that it all happened! I dwell in my thoughts without noticing when Pratvik reached his cabin with me!
He placed me on his bed inside his private room. He got a private room in his cabin as he had night duties here. I opened my eyes but narrowed my eyebrows as the sun rays shining straight through the window.
Pratvik supported me by placing a pillow behind my back. I leaned on it. He went and pulled the curtains together noticing my discomfort.
"Just stay here, Shakshi! I will be back in a minute." he said after handing me a glass of water.
I sat there alone. Past events were bubbling infront of me. More tears sprang in my eyes. I was drifted in my bad memories.
"Shakshi! Shakshi!" Pratvik was shaking my shoulders to bring me back to reality.
He sat beside me on the bed, placing a tray containing some first aid in front of him.
His long fingers caressed my cheek which was red now due to the slap. I flinched.
"Hold it like this." he placed a ice pack over my cheek which soothens my irritation.
He damped a cotton in antiseptic and brought it towards my face. I looked at him with confusion.
"Your lips..." he gently pressed the cotton at the angle of my mouth.
"Its bleeding." he took a deep breath as if calming himself.
He applied a small plaster there. He wiped my tears. And carefully pulled my hand towards him inspecting the scratches on my wrist. Its not bleeding but there some spots here and there.
"How do you know?"
"I saw it when you were in my arms holding my neck." He slowly cleaned the wound with a cotton and applied some ointment.
"No... I mean... that my father was hurting me. I only saw in movies that heroines are saved by heros at times."
"Sharath texted me that you are in trouble, at entrance. I'm sorry I should have reached you earlier." he locked the strand of hair behind my ear.
"Won't you ask me about him... like why he came, something like that?"
"I can wait, Shakshi! I know you like me but you need time to trust me, to open up with me. So, Its fine! But just remember, I will be always there for you nomatter what! And I won't sit back and watch if someone is hurting by any means! If you want to cry, then I will hug you and console you. But never bug you when you are not ready!" his eyes showed so much love, concern, hope, everything! That he care so much for me!
I didn't wait another minute. I jumped onto his lap and threw my arms around his neck and pulled him down towards me. I kissed him at the corner of his mouth.
'Thank you!" I wishpered at the side of his lips.
He expect this the least. His body froze a second when I kissed him. Then he retrived himself. His lips slightly curled into a smile. Then he pulled me towards his chest snaking his arms around me, stroking my back. I placed my head against his chest and closed my eyes. He kissed the top of my head.
"I will keep you safe. I won't let anyone hurt you, little one!" he kissed my forehead.
"I trust you!" I said it finally.
