Chapter 26: Possessive rage

With heavy and reluctant steps, Arnav step in her bedroom and saw her sleeping posture. His eyes began getting watery.

Arnav Singh Raizada was lost..he was guilty for whatever happened with this fragile innocent doll. He closed his eyes feeling her pain and then abruptly averted his gaze to the sleeping posture of khushi. He looked at her adorably, full of love. Slowly he took her hand and stare at her with tenderness like she is the only reason of his survival. His eyes shifted on her belly. It make him remember his awful sins. He killed her...he literally killed her. His eyes were most vulnerable at this moment. A sharp pain shot his heart.

''I am sorry khushi..I am really sorry..'' His voice was cracked, full of regret and shame. While his mind was full of storm right now.

Her beautiful eyes were closed. She was not the same innocent, crazy girl. His ego broke her, destroy her completely. A painful tear rolled down from the corner of his eyes and it fell on her cheeks.

He feel something strong arise in his heart. His harsh words keep ringing in his ears and making himself realize again and again that he is the most horrible animal in this world. He kissed her palm softly with love, care and affection. He absorb her warm touch inside him, sighing deeply. His heart was beating violently and it was totally connected to her.

''Tumhe vapas jeet ke rahunga main aur apni zindagi ka hissa banayunga hamesha hamesha ke liye..'' (I will win you back and make you the most precious part of my life forever and after)

''I will never let you go..I will heal you khushi..I will gain you back...I will make you realize how much we are incomplete without each other. This is my promise to you and our little bundle of joy..'' Saying this he kissed her forehead and lean down to kiss their pure symbol of love with uttermost gentleness and delight as she was his possession..his obsession..his addiction- only drug to live in this cruel world.

''I am missing you khushi. Every moment without you was like a decades for your Arnav..'' He said with heavy heart and placed her palm near his heart. It started to beat rapidly by her warm touch. His cute toddle frowned in jealousy by their romance.

''Beta, I love your Mumma more because she gave me you..'' Baby smiled sheepishly inside her tummy in happiness.

''You getting really impatient to come inside, wasn't you? I promise you before your birth I will make your Mumma mine forever and never let her go..'' Smiling he remembered what he said to his naughty kid about special date. Somehow he expected it was khushi's reaction and now he is all set to gave her another surprise.

Flickering his eyes around her face, he looked at her intensely. She look out of the world when she sleep showing taikando pose. Suddenly he started to sense her discomfort to move. Quickly, he put pillow near her stomach and make sure she did not pressurize her stomach. Her nighty lifted up slightly by her sudden move. He look aside in awkwardness. But then his eyes caught something.

His heart skipped a beat looking at her toes which become slightly swollen. It pained him. He slowly touched them with extra care.

''Because of me, you are bearing so much..'' He kissed her softness two three times and apply ointment on them soothingly.

''Stop staring at my mum, papa..'' A voice came from inside making his jaw dropped.

''I will, what you would do..'' He charged him.

''I will kick Mumma and wake her up then she will kick you out from our bedroom. Don't blame me afterwards that i didn't warn you..'' He snapped with a devilish smirk.

''What the..'' Being inside, he started to threaten him. What will happen when he actually came outside? Definitely he would gave him tough time like his mother. He wondered with offended bewilderment.

''Very soon you both are shifting in my bedroom so keep your mouth shut..'' He groaned by his papa attitude. But he is not less. Mini asr kicked his dearest Mumma showing equal arrogance.

''Don't hurt her..I will not tolerate this, understood..'' he worn in a loud tone that literally scared him. He started crying madly.

''Both mother and son made me mad some day..'' He groan in frustration and turn to gaze at his sleeping beauty. He caress her hairs intently. He was way too lost in her. Entire night he keep looking at her without realizing when new morning drawn upon them. This routine continue for some days while khushi was totally unaware about his visit during night time as he entered her bedroom through window when she was asleep. He make sure she is safe from all kind of pain and rushed out of her room before her cute tigress wake up from her beautiful sleep.

''Khushi, its time to become one now..'' He smiled brushing her cheeks.

~~~

A ray of light hit her. khushi felt new morning awaken her. Slowly, she rubbed her eyes and blink them before opening. She was about to get up by carefully holding her baby bump but something stopped her moving ahead. There was a small greeting card laying on a side table. She was quite surprised and got up slightly.

She open it gradually by seeing MY KHUSHI written in the front with a big heart visible to her eyes. She very well recognize whose hand writing it was.

''Arnav Singh Raizada! How dare you enter my bedroom without my permission..'' She tighten her grip on his damn card. She was going to tore it when a hard kick from inside stop her.

''Ouchh..'' She touched her stomach with a hiss. She look down taking an exasperated sigh and closed her eyes to calm herself. Her heart soften within a second sensing his movement. Her motherhood melted as she started to feel him. No matter how tough she try to become but for her baby, she is the same khushi she has been acknowledged. Her unborn was a world to her and she can sacrifice anything to protect her child.

''I know you wanted me to forgive your papa but Mumma have no strength to face the same betrayal again. It pricks me..'' Khushi just hugged herself and few droplets rolled down her cheeks.

''You have no idea how he is. He destroy your mumma life..he don't deserve any forgiveness and we don't need such kind of sick moron in our world..''

Sometimes we think we know everything and thought we are doing correct and in that process we made wrong decisions. Khushi took a sharp breathe and started to read the content unwilling, only for the sake of her baby request.

''I was wrong. I was so wrong about you. I shouldn't insult your love and betray you. You are the most purest human being i ever met. You loved me and I do as well but never comprehend it what my heart feels for you. You are my life, khushi. All my life is yours and always will be. You are the one who taught me the real existence of love. You are the reason I breathe. Without you, It's worthless to live. You are not a normal girl..you are very unique and special to me. I love you a lot, khushi even i don't know how much. It was inexpressible in words. The night when i marked you for the first time it was my love, not lust and i realized it recently. I know there is no forgiveness for the mistakes I did. I wish I could go back to the past and do things differently but I cannot do anything to overcome your pain. You suffered all the humiliation and still bearing the consequence of my sins. Our baby that came like that it was totally unexpected. Whenever you were close, I totally forget everything and drown in the depth of your love. May be that's the reason i never use protection in our love making session. I never wanted to hurt you but i did intentionally and unintentionally. Gave me one last chance I promise I will never hurt you and gave you everything which you lost. Even if it was your hatred, I am ready to bear it but please don't push me away from my real family which resides in you. At-least, for the sake of our love which you had may be in any corner of your heart, gave me a chance. Can we start afresh? Not as a lover but as a friends! I promise I will never cross my limits. Gave me a small part of your trust. I need you, khushi. I need you very much. I am not pretending anything. Please gave me one last chance and come back to me.

- Your one and only Arnav

''Its not that simple..'' She wipe her tears and shake her head as her finger touched his growing part in her womb.

''What do you expect me to do? I broke every limit, every barriers between us forgetting all moral values given by my parents and accepted you as my lover, my soulmate, my husband, my everything on that day when I kissed you for the first time. But you damaged me by calling our love as a game. You made me your puppet for sex. I trusted you Arnav even by knowing you never believe in commitment or marriage. Never in your life, you get serious about any girl but I thought my love changed you and you started addressing our love. You prove me so wrong because Arnav Singh Raizada never gave any damn to anyone. He only know how to use girls and throw them out like useless stuffs then why you wanted me back now? Go back to your models. Why you want a cheap middle girl?'' She gasp feeling herself dirty.

''You made me unwed mother and left me. Why you didn't kill me after using me! Its better to die rather than bearing this punishment of loving you. Why you humiliate our love by calling me a prostitute..'' She cried her heart out and held her head in her hands. She try to live normally but her existence somehow incomplete without him.

''Love is strong to overcome anything and there is no place of forgiveness when you love someone no matter how much they hurt you..'' Karan's voice made her to look up. He took her face in between his palms and wipe her tears. His words carrying more and more burden to her.

''Why you went leaving me alone..'' She hugged him brokenly. ''All left me, I am a biggest curse to everyone..'' she stuttered.

''Shh don't say like that. Ab main aa gaya hu nah I will never leave you alone..'' He careless her back and try to erase her pain.

''Your tears was a biggest proof you still love him. He does affect you no matter how much you deny or try to loath him, disgust him or pretend to hate him..'' He gulped with lump in his throat. His thoughts drifted back to her. She let's go off him and gave a weak smile. While he observe each and every expression of hers.

''What are you staring at me like that. I guess something stuck in my eyes..'' She try to act normally.

''From where you learn to lie from me..?'' She narrowed her eyes.

''Excuse me! Bachhu, did you see uncle is accusing mumma..'' She complained to her chota packet in her baby voice. He was going to snap back when they saw Arohi passing by there.

''Aru!!!!!'' Khushi called her. She was totally numb to her surrounding as her attention were somewhere else. She was walking ahead lost in her own world.

''Yeh ladki ko kya ho gaya..?'' (What had happen to this girl) Khushi thought as she observing her from some days. She is behaving quite weird. Her changed behavior create doubts in her mind. Karan hold khushi for support and they walked toward her. There is no response from her side. She was just standing like a lifeless soul.

''Aru..'' She jerked by her sudden touch and began to look left ad right. Both exchanged worried glances.

''Did Akash hurt her?'' Khushi is worried now. Karan gave her assuring look and they look back at her.

''Is everything fine?'' Khushi asked touching her cheeks.

''I am fine Di..'' she pretend to smile. But her inside was burning in pain.

''Are you sure?'' She nodded hurriedly and proceed to her room.

''Wait!'' Karan voice stunned her. She closed her eyes in fear. Her whole body was shivering remembering that brutal act. He headed toward her and stood in front of her.

''Where is your dupatta?'' She shuddered again and touch her neck that was empty. She wanted time to gather herself. Hesitantly, she raised her head and look at them. She have no idea how to cover this matter. For the sake of her Di health, she need to stay silent otherwise..

''Aru why you wearing the same dress since a week? What wrong with you? Didn't you take the bath?'' Khushi shot with queries and touched her head out of concern. Her fist clenched tightly. She don't know what she should say to cover her situation?

''Answer me?'' Khushi demanded. Terror filled her as she looked at her.

''Di you are too much..i love this dress so I just wear it..what's a big deal'' She said showing her displeasure and masking the fear that was coursing through her veins. Khushi glare him.

''You know what you both should start a detective agencies..'' She giggled.

''You are pulling my legs..'' Khushi pull her ears making her shout. She started jumping like a kid. Somehow Arohi succeeded in diverting their attention.

''Ahh..Bachao bachao..'' She yelled loudly and khushi stepped back annoyingly to cover her ears. Arohi ran to save herself from her Di wrath whereas khushi started to chase her. Karan smiled looking at the sister bond.

''Careful khushi..'' He immediately hold her as she was going to slip down. Khushi was breathing hard. She hold her stomach protectively.

''Have you gone mad..'' He yelled. She jerked back and pouted her mouth.

''Did you see your Mumma getting so careless and stubborn day by day..'' He said as he bend down and started to talk with her baby. Her eyes glinted. He placed his ear near her stomach and heard soft giggle from inside.

''He is so actively punching you like a punching bag..'' Khushi smiled cheerfully.

''Don't worry beta, papa is there to take care of Mumma. You continue your practicing inside..'' Arohi said in between and winked at them hiding her emotions behind her creepiness. Karan hugged khushi in a bear hug.

''Stop tickling me, karan, I will kill you! Both laughed as he started teasing her. The two was laughing and pulling each other completely unaware that a pair of furious brown eyes glaring at them insanely.

Khushi laughter was tickling in air. Karan drowned at her.

''You look so beautiful when you smile..'' He said in a low voice but khushi didn't heard it with the exception of one person. Who it could be other than Arnav. He would have heard her laughter after ages and wanted to get lost in them but the fact that she is showing her laughter on someone else built volcano inside him. The sight of khushi in his arms twitching him. He would be happy if he would be reason of laughter but unfortunately he is not. A rage like he never felt form in his chest. His fist clenched and his eyes was splitting fire. He heard Arohi calling karan his baby's father. The thought of his baby belonging to someone else ragging him beyond tolerance. His mind was screaming to announce this world that khushi only belong to him and he is a father of her baby.

He didn't say anything and left. Khushi noticed afterwards he was behind them. She felt strange because he is not a kind of man who would walk away silently. She is now scared for Karan because since the start she had seen his over protectiveness toward her. She has to admit Arnav cannot see her with another man but in contrary this rule wasn't applicable to him. He can roam with any girls and made physical relationship with them, no one can point him. Once again, the sight of him hugging Lavanya rolled back in her mind and then Mahi pregnancy! Why she didn't believe her? May be she was telling truth but she was so blinded with his fake love that she didn't believe her and kicked her out from her apartment without making an attempt to hear her part of story.

She felt sick of herself. How could she allow him to touch her to such an extreme level. God knows with how many innocent girls he played or dumped for his own benefits.

''I hate you Arnav Singh Raizada..I hate you from the bottom of my heart..'' Khushi dropped on the floor. She was going mad with grief and guilt for trusting him.

''I will never forgive you..'' She said through clenched teeth and threw the pillows and bed-sheets scattered all around making the room disheveled with her anger and bitterness that was killing and torturing her from inside by every passing second.

~~~

Aman was sitting in his study. He was staring at a ceiling lost in his deep thought.

I shouldn't hurt her! He closed his eyes in regret. A soft hand touched him breaking his reverie.

''Beta, I found this broken bangle in your bed..'' His diama showed him. He was unable to look in her eyes after that. She is more like a mother to him and understand him more than anyone. Nothing can be hidden from her even if he try yet he couldn't. Many times she try to stop him to forget all this revenge game but he was too adamant to punish his sister's criminals.

He stare at her bangles with guilt. He felt a tug in his heart as he remembered how badly he treated her. But he have no choice. She became his biggest threat to reach his goal. Her presence madden him like anything and he end up forcing her. Diama stared him expecting him to defend himself but he remain silent.

Before she shot with another query, he quickly take a small piece of bangle from her hand and switch back to his work.

''I need to talk to you..'' She demanded. He was aware what she wanted to ask but he have no answer. He was behaving like she is non existent.

''Aman, I am talking to you. Could you hear me..?'' She call him again.

''Not now Daima I am busy right now!'' He try to avoid their confrontation which may probably hurt her afterwards.

''Did you force that girl?'' His hands glued hearing that. He turned to look at her with shock.

''I have heard her scream that night..'' She exclaimed pressing each and every word. He closed his eyes not having courage to face her.

''I wish i could have able to to save her but then I found her running out from your bedroom in a very devastated state..'' She gave him disgusting look.

''How could you Aman, You ashamed me today..Chee..''

''Diama I..'' His words left half complete.

''Don't call me by this name from your filthy mouth. You lost that right. Today if your parents were alive they would have died out of shame. You disgrace our values, our principles. I never thought you get so blind in your sister's love that you never care to recognize the difference between right or wrong. You crush an innocent girl, how could you??????..'' She roared hurtfully.

''I haven't done anything..'' He defended himself.

''Stop lying I seen her state with my own eyes, don't you dare to deny what you did..'' She retorted

''Believe me, I didn't rape her..I only wanted to scare her so that she won't cross my path again.. that's it..''

''What?'' She get froze. He started to narrate what had happened.

*Flashback*

''You are so beautiful..'' He eyed her from top to bottom showing his lust deliberately. Arohi inch backward but he pinned her both hands.

''Don't come near me..'' He pounced at her like an animal.

''Please don't..'' Tears drenched her face completely. His heart melt by her innocence. He immediately made a straight face when she look at him. She couldn't move and she couldn't breathe even.

''Why should I leave you! You left me with no option..'' He tore her sleeves making her sob harder.

''Don't cry..I hate this useless tears..'' he spat with so much venom. Arohi lay there, too terrified to even move. She cursed herself again and again for coming there.

''How could you do this to me. Is this a way to treat a girl. If you got one sister you will understand the value of a girl's honor..''

''Shut up!'' He twisted her hand. His eyes were deadly dangerous.

''Why should I shut up. She should have died rather than being your brother because you don't deserve any relation..'' Arohi said arrogantly without realizing it was actually correct. He lost his sister and reason was none other than her own dearest sister whom she loved so much. He wanted to destroy her right now. It was very easy for him to revenge khushi by destroying her but unfortunately he couldn't. How could he punish another girl for the mistake she is not responsible. It was khushi who should be punished not Arohi. She have no fault in that. If he commit the same mistake then what is the difference between Arnav and khushi, and him. He glance at her teary eyes and her frantic eyes that were begging him to stop. This crime was greater than killing anyone.

''Just get lost and never show your face again..'' He left her arms and she immediately rose on her feet. She was trembling. She was about to take another foot when he again pull her into his arms.

''This is my last warning if again i saw you anywhere near my house i swear i will ruin you and dare to open your mouth in front of anyone..'' He left her by then and she covered herself with her both hands moving to other side. Without waiting for a second, she ran out from his sight as fast as possible and cover herself with a shawl by not getting anything.

*Flashback end*

''Why its always happen to me? Firstly i lost my parents and then my sister..'' He was devastated.

Diama kissed his forehead and look at him with sorrowful expression.

''Why they killed Mahi..What was her mistake in that..'' He cried helplessly and hold her picture near his heart.

''Everything will be fine. Forget everything and move on..'' He placed his head on her lap and cried bitterly.

''I can't..they killed her and i will surely gave them much needed punishment for destroying Mahi's life..'' He said with greeted teeth.

''You are doing wrong, Aman. I wish I would able to tell you Mahi's real truth but-..'' She said under her breathe. She was feeling bad for him.

She careless his hairs and look at Mahi picture with agony and hatred filled expression.
