Flashback continues:

The clouds roared in the form of loud thunders and it started raining.The sky was crying along with her.The thunders like her heart were screaming out her grief and misery.What fate she had been blessed with and why she was chosen for this.The person she has trusted till now broke her trust and played with her emotions.The man she loved and believed to be her savior ditched her on the wedding day.

Meenakshi had few doubts on her mind if Vikram was guilty of his actions.He did that out of disbelief and family pressure.Maybe he repents and he did love her.She let the tears made their way down her cheeks and she wanted the weak Meenakshi to be washed out along with them.Every emotion in her should not exist as they got her nothing but .. betrayal.

A few minutes a go she did something for which her heart would have never given the consent to do so.She would have preferred to die thousand times.There comes a time when one is left with no choice, to compromise at the option of fulfilling their own motives.And she has only one motive now.To let the one suffer for what has been done to her and why.She has done no harm to any person till date then why this for her.What was her fault that she got played and that also by her own fiance a day before their wedding date.

Few minutes ago..

M-"Your here again I said I dont want to.."

Raju-"Can you hear me out?And you better because whatever I am going to tell you now after that you are ready to take any decision."

After a pause

M-"What is it."

Suhaas entered the room and he would know from the nasty look she had on her face.He smirked at her and asked Raju for the papers which he handed to him.

M-"If he is here to threaten me or force himself on me thinking that I would say yes then do whatever you want to Iam not going to fall for this.Never.Kill me with your hands that would be a better option"

He settled on a chair with a calm face giving her a challenging look.He had something on his hand and she thought must be those papers.

S-"Raju."

Raju gave a nod and left to get something.She was clueless with their every move and then he came back with another bunch of papers on his hand and a packet.Suhas took the packet and got something out of it that was a cell phone. A simple phone at which she looked on to.

He scratched his stubble and spoke with sarcasm 

S-"Dont think Iam doing all this because of the fuc**** tantrums you have been showing off and let me tell you.I am not one of those who entertain such things."

He gestured Raju to leave through his hand and Meenakshi distanced herself a little more to the corner of the room.He smirked at her and shaking his head threw the file of papers at her.

S-"Sign them.Huh.not scared enough?.Women can only talk big."

She gathered the silent courage and threw the papers back to him.

M-"I made it clear.What makes you think i will sign these papers knowing well what they mean.Why would I give myself the tag of being wife of a ruthless and disgusting soul like you.Never in my dreams."

S-"Dreams.Wow.So you still dream?Or you left dreaming the moment they were broken by me or by your would be husband?Vikram Kumar?"

She froze at the mention of Vikram and Suhaas took that moment to get a closer look at her.He knelt down towards her on the floor and she faced him rather going backwards.For some reason he started liking the fire inside her.He loathed emotions and considered people with them as fools.Almost leaning on her face he spoke when she clenched her teeth and closed her eyes.

S-"You  would love to know something about your pure innocent *fiance* oops I mean ex fiance"

She spoke with equal venom.

M-"At least he is better than a savage creature like you.He values emotions and people and he chose his family and.Whatever he did must have been out of compulsion."

The room echoed with his laughs and she stared at him in disbelief.Was he a human.Nevertheless before she could open her mouth to protest she heard the familiar voice.

Vikram-"Stop annoying the hell out of me and tell me if you are giving me whatever information you have with you.You know consequences what I can do to you.You think you can mess with Vikram Kumar."

S-"The most successful and top business tycoon.Vikram Kumar.Must say you sound so desperate but let me tell you one thing in order to attain certain things and position in life one has to make a choice. A bad brute choice hope you are getting my point?"

V-"NO Iam not.why cant you.Ah okay.tell me what do you want in return."

S-"Raghav.I want my man back.Who was witness to crime you did.And you have him with you now.Free him."

V"You think Im fool?Why would I do that."

S-"Okay lets make a clear deal then.And bet you cant say no for an answer.I will pass on all information to you the video and proofs of your.Secret activities thats been happening behind your business.But you have to do something."

V-"Tell me."

S-"So much impatient.please take a deep breath and relax for a while.I heard you are getting married this week and your bride is waiting for you back in village."

V-"Thats not your concern.Stop fooling around and get to the main point.you have to give me the information straight out or else."

S-"Or else what you will kill me like you killed my man?You really think Im fool like you.Well Im not certainly.Now get me straight and in clear words.You have to pay for all whatever you did and.."

V-"You have guts.You are giving threat to me.do you know the consequences?If I want I can.."

S-"FIANCE".I heard you are very fond of her.Aren't you?She must be very beautiful."

V-"Stop talking shit you have got to do nothing with her.Its between us.I am ready to take a call on your deal.Tell me what you want damn it."

S-"Told you.You are in dire need of patience.Hear me out now.I am giving you a days time and decide.If you want those proofs then..heh..grant me the honor to celebrate first night with your wife before you get the chance to.."

V-"Are you out of your mind you filthy.."

S-"Tch Tch see.Patience patience.My Deal and your call. I dare you to choose .dont come on my way.I will let you go in ruins.Choice is yours now but tomorrow.it will be mine."

Meenakshi seethed in anger and  felt it difficult to control the rage building inside her.The voice she got to hear after long and the deal.How can one stoop so low and she felt more disgusted with every second.She gulped hard and looked back at the man in disgust.And next came another recorded conversation which shook her world .

V-"I..I gave it a thought and.I made a choice.give me the information.She is all YOURS."

Suhaas pressed the stop button and passed on to the phone to Raju who was back there standing and glancing at the broken soul.Suhaas left the room and Raju walked to Meenakshi.He tried to help her way out but he knew this was not something she needed and would not acknowledge.He had his eyes down and facing the other side he spoke

R-"I know this is like another blow for you.Life we trust some people with heart and they are the ones who break our trust and never give a thought over it.Meenakshi you are a brave girl and I believe you were never at fault for anything.I cant justify for whatever happened to you and won't ask you to forget everything and move on.All I can suggest you..dont give up and fight back.You trusted the wrong person all this while"

Raju left the papers on bed with a pen and about to exit when heard her stern voice.

M-"I am ready to sign the papers.But before that I would like to have a word with him."

R-"You sure?"

She laughed through those tears and with red eyes gave a calm look to the man.

After a while Suhaas was standing with a frown on his face.His back was facing her and he was not in the mood to face another fight of words with this girl.

M-"I am ready to sign the papers."

S-"thank you.I feel honored.you could have said that to Raju."

He was about to move out when she caught his wrist.Feeling her grip he was taken a back.His eyes met hers and they were not the ones he encountered even some time ago.They were cold and he got himself out of his grip.There was something in this girl which had him from beginning.He needs to stop getting closer to her by any means.He cannot afford that.He felt uneasy and restless around her.

M-"I dont know why you are eager to marry me or whats your motive behind this maybe another deal of yours.How you are going to use me or.I want something in return for this deal of signing papers."

S-"Wow.Now we get to hear the real words.Are you striking a deal with me?"

M-"Why not.if you think you can then why not me."

S-"Shoot."

M-"I..I want to see the end of Vikram Kumar.He should be in ruins."

Suhaas had his eyes at the girl as she approached him with her face held high.Her eyes were awaiting his response and he looked in a different direction.He watched Raju overhearing their conversation.

M-"In return I will do whatever you ask me to.Any how Iam ruined inside and out.So it doesnt matter to me anymore.My soul wont rest in peace till I..see the end."

She waited not getting any response and eyed Raju.

S-"DONE.We are leaving tomorrow.Raju.Make all arrangements."

Out of the thoughts, she was now resting her head on the pillow gazing outside through the window.She legally belonged to some one else now and the person whom she hated.She could feel the tears making their way down her cheeks and one thing left her in daze.She did not feel the pain or breakdowns anymore.Her heart ached and now it had a different feeling.Something which she couldnt explain.Ablaze she has been feeling to put everything on fire when the next second she got up and felet nauseated.Rushed to the washroom and threw up.The feeling..she felt exhausted but was not going to give up so soon.

Washing her face she caught her head in her hands and stared back at her reflection in the mirror.Her face had a white and  hollow look.She tried to look for that happy and chirpy Meenakshi who once lived life with a smile.Her lips broke down into something which rather could be addressed as a smile.It was a silent protest and cry.

Every part of her body ached and she felt like throwing up again.

Gulping some water down her throat she sat on the bed and her hand went to her stomach.She clutched the piece of cloth hard there and shut her eyes tight.

M-"VIKRAM.you promised to give me something a gift a wife would never desire to get from her husband never in her dreams and never did I thought this would come true.You gifted me this a set up mockery of my love and trust and betrayal.You made a deal and used me as a bet you sold my body and killed my soul.The Meenakshi you liked and got to know..I will make sure she dies a brutal death so that she would never return.And from now I will only count for the days..to see you facing the same wrath and pain you have delivered to me knowingly or unknowingly."
