Warning: It's unedited!!!!

I think main likhna be bhool gayi hoon 😭

Vidya looked at Abhira, her face twisting into an ugly smirk

Waise maa woh log kitne badnaseeb hote hain jinki kismat mein bache ka sukh nahin hota.

Kaveri glared at her.

Vidya.

Her voice carried a sharp edge.

Maine Kuch galat kaha kya? Akhir ek bacha hi toh successful marriage ki nisani hota hai.

Agar aisa hai toh aapki aur baba ki marriage successful kyun nahin hai Mrs Vidya Poddar?

Came Armaan,s voice, sharp and unforgiving.

Vidya,s heart raced, a trace of fear evident in her expression as she whirled around.

Yeh kya keh raha hai tu Armaan.

Vidya,s voice trembled as she spoke, her face was a canvas of pure shock.

Dadi sa stepped forward and spoke

Hum batate hain.

As Dadi Sa started to narrate the tale, everyone,s face was a canvas of shock and as she finished, she looked at them. Everyone was staring at her shocked, the hall seemed to hold it's breath. The silence was suffocating gripping everyone's heart in tight clutches.

Armaan stepped forward, his eyes locking with Vidya as he spoke, his tone mocking

Aapki shadi jo tiki hai na woh meri shadi ki maiyat per tiki hai. Agar aaj meri Abhira nahin hoti na toh yeh shadi nahin tikti.

Armaan walked upstairs, his footsteps helted and he gripped Abhira,s hand and they climbed down the stairs.

Armaan looked at her, his eyes filled with cold contempt.

Vidya looked around and only to find Madhav missing.

Aapki wajah se sabki zindagi barbad hui hai Vidya Poddar. Sabki. Meri, Abhira ki....

He trailed off, his eyes locking into Abhira,s.

Main bhi pagal hoon.

He said, his voice carrying a hint of self looting.

Meri Abhira ko maine itni takleef di per phir bhi she tried to reach out for me, to hold me but I pushed her away. Maine apna sara gussa, sari frustration sab kuch Abhira per nikala which caused her depression.

Armaan said, the word depression left everyone stunned and they gazed beside Armaan only to find her missing

Abhira kahan Chali gayi

Abhira felt a shiver race down her spine as a gush of cold wind swept around her. She was sure that she was getting a panic attack.

Shivers raced down her spine, her breath got stuck somewhere at the base of her throat. Her heart felt heavy. She was panting and gasping for air, her face flushed with effort, the storm of emotions swirling within her felt overwhelming. Tears streaming down her cheeks as she looked around with her blurry vision. The heavy feeling in her heart and the weakening of her legs increased and she tried to hold onto something but before she could do that, her legs wobbled and then gave out causing her to fall onto the ground. She looked around with her blurry vision. She felt as if she was caged, caged in a small box unable to be free and her hand reached out blindly with an intension to hold onto something and she felt a hand grip hers, a firm, sturdy hand.

Armaan kneeled beside her rubbing her arms.

Abhira.

He called out but she couldn't hear him. Her body started to tremble violently, the darkness coming from all sides of her vision to consume her entirely, her sobs were muffled, caged in her throat and her eyes slid shut giving into the darkness, her body fell limp.

Abhira rushed forward, her footsteps echoing in the stillness of the night. Her heart pounding wildly against her chest, a pang of desperation tightening her chest.

Mumma darwaza kholo.

Abhira said, her voice trembling as she knocked the door

Silence.

Mumma darwaza kholein main Hoon Abhira.

She cried out knocking the door, her desperation evident, her knuckles aching from the impact.

The silence was suffocating as she continued to knock the door frantically, her each cry, each yell was answered by silence and she dropped herself on her knees, pressing her forehead against the door.

Mumma aap darwaza kyun nahin khol rahe

She said, her voice strained.

The surroundings around her shifted and she felt Armaan,s tight grip on her arm and the gates stood closed in front of her as he pushed her causing her to fall on the ground.

Armaan had gripped Abhira,s hand tightly as she remained engulfed in the embrace of a restless sleep. Her breathing turned heavy, her eyelashes fluttered but remained closed, her grip on his hand tightened as she slipped into the haze of the nightmare

Abhira kabhi maa nahin ban sakti
Abhira ke hathon mein mere bete Armaan ka naam kabhi nahin likha jayega.

Main shrap deti hoon

Yeh ghar nahin hai Abhira yahan achi vakeel banne ki koshish karo achi biwi nahin

Tum kya chahati ho Abhira ke meri maa jo abhi tak mujhse theek se baat nahin kerti woh meri shakal bhi na dekhe

The words echoed in the hollows of her heart as she remained engulfed in the haze of her nightmare. As the nightmare intensified, Abhira,s body started to tremble, a soft cry escaped her lips.

Armaan,s head turned sharply as he noticed the change in her. His heart raced and in a swift move, he cradled her close and whispered words of comfort in her ears, his voice soothing the anxiety that clung to her to some extent. He caressed her hair with a tender touch.

Her eyes snapped open and she stared at him, her eyes wild with a mixture of fear and panic. Her hands as if having a mind of their own lifted themselves, locking around his neck and she whimpered, a muffled cry escaping her, the words caught in her throat.

Armaan tum yehin ho na?

She asked, her voice quivering with fear as her heart continued to race in her chest, still caught in the haze of her nightmare.

Abhira....

Nahin Armaan. Kuch mat kehna. Kuch mat kerna. I knew tum yahan nahin ho. Muh pher liya tumne mujhse? Mujhe blame kiya....

Her chant was broken by a trembling sob that escaped her.

Her body begin to tremble as panic rose within her.

Main kuch nahin kiya meri koi galti nahin hai. Maine Vidya maa ko tumse door nahin kiya main tumhare aur Ruhi ke beech nahin aayi.... Mera yakeen karo. Armaan meri baat suno please hear me out.

Abhira!!!!

He cut her off, his voice raising slightly, cracking through the haze of the nightmare that consumed her.

I know.

He said, his voice trembling as a pang of guilt tightened his chest pulling her closer to him, her eyes still closed. His touch grounding her midst the haze of her nightmare.

I knew tumne Kuch nahin kiya. Yeh sab meri galti hai.

He placed a trembling kiss over her hair. The trembling in her body reduced, her chocked sobs quietened and her breathes evened out as she gave into the gentle but peaceful embrace of sleep.

Armaan looked up, the tears were on the edge of rolling down his cheeks, his heart cracked open as her vulnerability lay bare in front of him like an open wound.

Yeh kya ker dia maine?

He thought, the guilt chocking him up.
