Arnav POV

After Tia Kapoor left and My Mama and dad went to court something happened

I feel the tension in the air as I woke up that morning

Mama tried to down play it,but she always has a tell......she smiles pretending everything is okay but he eyes are sad

"Mama are you okay!" I asked worried about maybe something happening, did someone hurt her

She shakes her head once again giving me a sad smile,"I'm fine Tillu!just need more rest!"she said packing my lunch for school

I watch her to see if she is telling the truth,than decided to let everything go,"Okay!"I faked a smile ,if she wasn't willing to tell me what happened than I will find out myself

I trust Papa because he give me a reason to trust him but the same can't be said about his family

I know he is devoted to his family and that makes me trust and love him more but the is something off about some of his family members

All I know is if someone in this family hurts my mother ,they will pay

"Mornings Tillu!" Said Papa's mother dangling unnecessary amount of jewelry so early in the morning

She touched me fixing my already fixed clothes obviously trying to ignore my mother

"Arnav!"I said taking a step away from her

This is what I was talking about the is something off about Pinky Singh Oberoi,I don't know what it is yet but I will find out

"What?" She looked at me questioningly

"My name is Arnav not Tillu!only mama calls me Tillu!" I said looking straight in her eyes

"Excuse me!" She said looking angry at me than throw a hateful glance at my mother

"You are excuse!" I said walking around her to my mother for a goodbye kiss

"Tillu,you shouldn't talk like that to your grandma!" Mama said pulling me to her but her eyes were brighter,happier...

"You are nothing more than his nanny that why you didn't teach him to respect his elders,that Shivaay and Tia's job right!" She taunted my mother ,I felt mama flinch at the impact of the words

I felt my body go cold, I stood straighter ,shoulders back head held high and watched Pinky Singh Oberoi smirk as she saw that brief reaction of pain from my mother!Now I am angry!

She reminds me of a bully at school who what to hurt other for fun,he will poke and poke tell he got what he wants his prize and in a case of Pinky Singh Oberoi I think her prize is My Dad

I grinned as it all come together in my head igniting my anger more

"Come on Tillu!time for school?" Mama said trying to defuse the situation

I nodded kissed her on the cheek and pretended to walk to the door,"I left an important book on my bed!"I said slowly walking back to my room

"I will just run up and get it!" Mama said looking at me suspiciously, I nodded smiling a little cos I knew she will volunteer, she hates when I am late for school and anyway what I am about to say is only going to take a minute

"Do you think My Dad loves me grandma!" I said turning to look at Pinky Singh Oberoi

"He loves you more than anyone!" She said excited cos this is the first time I have ever spoken to her like this,unfortunately for her I have a reason she won't like

"More than you!?" I asked staring deep in her eyes,she starred at me and I saw her smile falter

"I....ahh....I...yes?" She looked confused,i almost felt a little sorry for her,almost!

"I am a long lost son of Shivaay Singh Oberoi and you are his overbearing,infuriating mother,so if he was asked to choose between us who do think he will choose!" I asked knowing the answer,I wasn't being arrogant I knew my father loved me and my mother....and I trusted that

I smiled at her shocked,heartbroken face,enjoying seeing the disbelief and anger on her face

"Think about that before insulting MY MOTHER in front of Me again!" I said turned, ignored her completely waited for my mother to come back

"Tillu I can't find you book anywhere!" Mama said looking a little disheveled

"She must have looked all over for this book!" I thought to myself smiling a little

"Its okay mama I found it ,it was in the backseat of the car!" I said knowing she won't believe me

She looked at me ,than looked at my dear grandma who still had a look of shock in her face  and everything seem to fall into place for her

She held my ear very painfully I might add and dragged me to our car, "Time for school!" She said opening the car door

"We will talk about this after school!love you" She whispered at me than kissed my forehead and waved till I couldn't see her anymore

Anika Trivedi isn't some fragile flower that will take insult lightly but she and I always protect each other

School was a little boring as always but it was a early in the afternoon when the driver came to get me saying it was an emergency!

"What happened!" I asked feeling my heart latch,panic overwhelming

"I don't know sir!" He said driving fast,we sat silently in the car different scenarios playing in my head,was mama OK,is it dad....what going on!

I jump out the car before it had fully stopped and ran into OM shouting for my mother,"Mama!Mama....Dad!"but noone was here

I felt tears run down my cheeks,something was really wrong cos if the is an emergency mama always comes to me.

"Mama!" I screamed

"Arnav!" Dadi said walking into this room looking sad,her eyes red...something is definitely wrong

"Where is Mama and Papa Dadi!" I asked walking to her begging for any information

"Sit down Arnav! I need to talk to you!" Dadi said sitting next to me

I am not stupid!I am a genius so I know with the driver coming to get me,mama not meeting me and Dadi's face something is seriously wrong

Dadi looked at me with so much sorrow that I knew who the emergency was for! In that moment knew something was wrong with my mother

"I want my Mother!" I said standing up suddenly realising I don't want to hear whatever she is trying to tell me

I backed away,tears like waterfall running down my eyes,I wiped my face but that didn't seem to help... I was afraid,desperate and i wanted my mother

"M..a..m..a!" I yelled again my voice breaking,I ran away from whatever Dadi wanted to tell me

Strong arms circled my body stopping me from running,"Arnav!listen!"rudra yelled at me shaking me a little

I shook me head back and forth yelling ,"No!no!!no!" At the top of my voice

I don't want to listen cos I knew once I heard what they have to say everything is going to change,I am going to lose everything!

"She is at the hospital!" Rudra yelled over my voice and I froze and stared at him with tear filled eyes

"Your mother met with an accident and is at the hospital!" Rudra explained looking at me with his own eyes red

"Hospital!that a good think right,they will make her better right!"I thought to myself as he let go of me

"Where!?" I asked my throat hurting from, now I realise ,the screaming I just did

"Come I'll take you!" Rudra said pulling me up ,taking my hand and walking with me

We passed a crying Dadi,got into the car and went to the hospital

I had jumped to conclusions I thought she left me,I thought she left me alone but I should have known she would never do that

Mama always promised it will be me and her against the world she wouldn't just leave I knew that,she is at the hospital the doctor will make her better
Sumi bua will make her better

"Come!" Rudra said pulling me toward the waiting area where the Oberoi's all stood

Till that moment I had convinced myself that I had overreacted! Till the moment I stepped into a room full of Oberois looking for eyes identical to mine for reassurance

It was when our eyes meet across the room I knew!

Anger
Sadness
Pain
Horror
Heartbreak

I knew I should have run when I had the chance!
