BELA

It's been a week,me trying to talk to Mahir,him ignoring me.This time I felt more pain when he is ignoring me,because his anger is partially justified.

But he should stand even in my place and think.He punched Shaan just because he hugged me,and how will I react when K will come and tell that she is pregnant with Mahir's child?

He is looking at me only through the agony he is having against me,if he looks at me with some love,he will understand my pain.

We were never this broken,at least me in all my life.

"Are you ready?"Mahir asked coming inside our room.

"Yes..just a minute",I said wiping my tear and giving a final touch up to my makeup.

I don't want my family to see me and Mahir in this condition.We are going to our home today.

It's been like this since all these days,Mahir sleeping in guest room,me sleeping on the couch of our room or sometimes in the lobby.He is coming to this room only to get his clothes and files.

This room is ours,filled with many memories.We dint allow K to get inside our room,but she got inside Mahir's bed,got inside my house,my life and took my husband from me.

I wore my bangles and kept a pinch of vermilion in between my hair partition.Mahir used to fill my partition with so much love,looking into my eye's,kissing the wedding chain.I blinked back my tears and went out.

I'm even wearing his favorite saree today,still he is not sparing a glance at me,
"Mahir let's go",I said when he was giving food to our fishes.

We both walked out,locked the door and hopped into our car.The car ride was silent,none speaking a word to each other.

"I expect you to..not tell anything to mom and dad about this..whatever is happening",Mahir said.

"You think I will tell them?",I asked in disbelief.

"You can do anything,you are unpredictable than the weather",he said and my eye's stung with tears.

Where is all the love he have for me?

Right,even hand writing changes from one page to another.And you think people in your life won't change?

We stopped in front of Sehgal house and both were sitting silently,
"Don't worry Mahir,maybe I am unpredictable like weather,but at least I'm not the one who destroys others life's with a storm",I said and hopped out of the car.

I walked inside our home and saw dad reading a newspaper.He had a big smile when he looked at me,
"Belaa...",he said and kept the newspaper aside.

"Dad...",I said and walked towards him.

I touched his feet and he kissed my forehead,
"How are you child?It's been two weeks since we met you,after that awards ceremony",dad said and I gave a sad smile.

"Mahir..Bela has become so thin,you are not taking care of her?"dad asked sarcastically and Mahir gave a small smile.

"It's not like that dad,I have been busy with many orders this week",I lied.

"Bela betaa..",Sumi maa came.

"Maa...",I ran to her and hugged her.

"I missed you so much beta..",she said hugging me.

I muffled my sob hugging her,
"Arey...you are crying?"Sumi maa asked.

"No..I'm not..just that..I missed you all",I smiled wiping corner of my eye.

"Bela beta,you are glowing.Don't shut off that glow with these tears",she said and I gave a small smile.

Makeup helped me!

"Mahir..what did you do?My daughter is glowing like this?Any good news Mr and Mrs Mahir?"she asked.

I looked at Mahir and he looked away,
"No mom..nothing like that",Mahir said hugging her.

"When will you make us grandparents Mahir?We can't wait",Sumi maa said hugging him.

A child?

Mine and Mahir's?

It's never going to happen maa.He is already becoming a father and you both are becoming grand parents too,for his and K's child!

"Maa I told you not now,stop embarrassing us",Mahir said and I looked away wiping my tear.

"Bela babhi...",Yuvi was coming down.

"Hey..",I hugged him.

"How are you babhi?"Yuvi asked.

"I'm fine Yuvi..just fine",I said and he smiled sadly.

"Bela beta,today Sumi filled the menu with all your favorite food items.We both should satisfy her by completing them",dad said and I smiled.

"Yes,all my Bela's and Mahir's favorite food today.Come on,you people are already late"maa said taking us to the dining table.

We all had lunch talking randomly.I was having my lunch silently and Mahir too,our mom and dad felt this unsual,because Mahir always talk while eating,only me and Yuvi know our situation now.

"Mahir..why so silent today?"Maa asked.

"Nothing mom,just work pressure..I'm feeling tired of all this",he said looking at me.

"Don't lie,there is no work pressure this month and next month too.Why are you both looking so sad today?"dad asked looking at me.

"No dad..it's not like that,it's..Mahir and I...",I'm short of words.

I really don't have any excuse to give.

"Come on dad,Mahir bhai must asked her for a kiss and Bela babhi denied it.Am I right babhi?"Yuvi asked diverting the topic.

"Yuviii",mom and dad laughed.

"Arey...I'm guessing this only.Right babhi...look at her face",Yuvi said and I gave a small shy smile.

"Yeah...you are right Yuvi",dad said and they laughed.

Mahir was also trying to laugh,but he is not even able to smile plastically.

"That blush says it all",maa said.

A kiss?

He dint touch me since past three weeks,and a kiss is very far!

I'm missing him,his love,his touch,his warmness...everything.

I looked at Mahir with a teary eye and he was already looking at me.Hurt,disbelief,all types of mixed emotions I was receiving.

"OK..OK..no teasing them",dad said and I looked away.

"These love birds can't fight for more than an hour,we all know it",Maa said.

It's been three weeks maa!

We all completed having lunch and sat in lobby,
"Mahir,Bela I have a request for you both",dad said and we both looked at each other.

"See since I'm getting retired next month,I will be free.I will feel bored being alone",dad spoke.

"So?"Mahir asked.

"So,I can spend my time if you both will give me a grandson or granddaughter",he said and I smiled sadly.

You are already going to get one dad!

Mahir closed his eye's and rubbed his temples,
"Dad,you and mom can go for a world tour.Why troubling me and Bela?"Mahir asked.

"Arey..world tour my foot,we already went twice.So consider our request and get on work,please Bela beta",dad said looking at me.

"And Mahir,it's been one year since your marriage.You should start a family now",dad said.

I looked at Sumi maa,
"Not only Andy,even I also want a grandchild now Bela.You both can continue your career's,we will take care of your child,we will spend our whole day with them,I want to play with my Mahir's child",she said and I looked at Mahir.

"Mom..why are you people asking this again and again?"Mahir asked.

"It's OK maa,we can understand your pain.We will talk about it",I said and looked at Mahir.

He is already under guilt,about being father of K's child.And his parents asking for a grandkid now,this is hard for him and me also.

"By the next year,I and Sumi will be having a little one in our arm's,my son's kid",dad said proudly and my pain was increasing.

How should I explain our situation to them?

"Arey dad..now stop this emotional blackmail,and OK.We will think about it",Mahir said and a tear almost fell from my eye.

I know he is just saying it for the sake of his parents,but this is warming me up.

I wanted to become a mother,after looking at Kuhu and now Vish also,I want to become a mother.

But after looking at K,this will never happen.

I will never become a mother!

"OK,hoping for a good result from you both",dad said.

I smiled and Sumi maa patted my cheek,
"Mahir,once come to study room,I need to talk to you",dad said.

"OK..let's go",he said and all three went to study room.

"So,how is Vish doing?"maa asked.

"She is good maa,and I guess now she is one month pregnant",I smiled.

"I'm really happy for her.And when you will be pregnant na,I will make all your favorite sweets,I will massage your legs,I will fulfill all your cravings.I will play with my grand kid for whole day.Even if you and your husband are busy,I and Andy will take care of our grandkid",tears stung my eye's when maa was talking excitedly.

How should we tell this matter to you both maa?

Some or the other day everyone will get to know,but how will they react?

How will my parents react?

MAHIR

My heart felt heavy when mom and dad were requesting for a child from us.

Me and Bela dreamt a lot about our child,but all our dreams are shattered!

"Yes dad,what you want to talk?Anything serious?"I asked sitting on the table.

"I don't want to ask infront of Bela,so I called you here",dad said.

"What's the matter dad?"Yuvi asked.

"Mahir,last week media spotted you and K,in a hospital",dad said,I and Yuvi looked at each other.

"Now what's going on with her and you?And in a hospital?Are you hiding anything from me?"he asked.

"Bela will be heart broken if I say this,that's why I'm asking you separately.What's the matter?"dad asked.

"Dad..I just went to collect Annu's reports,and I don't know why K was in that hospital,it's not my problem",I said angrily.

"If they saw us in same hospital,that doesn't mean we both went together.Why will I meet her?"I said.

"Yes dad,it's not right blaming Mahir bhai for this.You know about the media right?"Yuvi asked.

"I know Mahir,I'm just clearing it out with you.Because you remember the promises you made to her and her family right?"dad asked.

Yes dad,I remember each and every promise and I'm breaking them one by one,hurting Bela.

She has killed me emotionally,how should I cope up with my pain?

Who will understand my pain?

I loved her so much and still love her,but the accusations she put on me?

This is only her love?

This is only the trust she have on me?

I can fight this whole world when Bela is with me and the world is against me.But my Bela is only not with me,how can I fight?

"Yes dad,we both are good together.There is no one between us",I lied.

If Bela would have trusted me,this would not happen dad!

"OK..I just wanted to clear this",dad said and I nodded.

"And think about what I said,about starting a family",dad said.

"Yes dad,we will..we will think about it",I said.

Family?

We are B.R.O.K.E.N!

We came back to lobby,Bela and mom were talking to each other.

"Hmm completed?All your business talks?"mom asked.

"Yes mom,all over",I said looking at Bela.

I don't know what mom talked to Bela?She was looking hurt.Maybe again about our kids!

It's hurting me,but it's killing Bela!

I can sense that,I'm hurting her since three weeks and she is bearing all of it.

I'm putting her in a bag full of guilt which she don't deserve,but even I don't deserve her accusations,after loving her to the core!

I saw my phone and I was getting a call from Vyom,
"Hello",I spoke.

"Mahir,you and Yuvi come to office.Annu is also here,it's urgent",he said.

"OK,we are coming",I said and hanged up.

"Mom,I and Yuvi should go,an important wok came up",I said.

"Mahir?"mom asked.

"I'm sorry mom,I will make it up for next time but now it's urgent and I have to go",I said and Yuvi got up.

Bela was looking hurt again,
"Dad..tell your driver to drop Bela in our house",I said and she blinked back her tears.

I and Yuvi reached our office and we all entered our cabin,
"What is it Vyom?"I asked.

He looked at Annu,
"Sir,K's boyfriend..he is in abroad,we got to know everything about him.We just have to tell him about K and her game",Annu said.

"That is fine Annu,we already know about this.What's new?"Yuvi asked.

"Rithik called",Vyom said and I looked at him with a hope.

"Fuck...yes",I sighed and took out my phone.

"Why dint he call me personally?"I said dialing his number.

"Hello?"I spoke.

"Hello...Mahir?"Rithik spoke.

"You bastard I was trying to call you,where have you been?"I shouted in the phone.

"Asshole take a chill pill,I was on a vacation with Shivanya.Then also I tried your number,bastard you were not answering so I called to your office",he shrugged.

"OK..leave that...when are you coming back?"I asked.

"This weekend Mahir,even Shivanya is pregnant,so she will be going to her mom's home.So we will be back by this week",he said.

"Congrats man..convey my wishes to Shivanya",I said feeling sad.

"Thank you and you can congratulate her,here",he said.

"Hello...Mahir,how are you?"Shivanya spoke.

"I'm good Shivi,congrats for your child",I smiled.

"I hate you Mahir,I'm on my fifth month and you are wishing me now?"she huffed.

"Blame your husband,asshole has been busy than me",I said and she laughed.

"OK,we will be coming by this weekend,let's meet.I should meet Bela also",she said and I smiled sadly.

"Hello Mahir..",Rithik spoke.

"Rithik..I need your help",I said.

"Anytime man,what's the matter?"he asked.

"I can't say it on phone Rithik,I will be waiting for you to come back",I said.

"Mahir,I'm away from Shivanya now.Talk to me,what happened?"he asked.

"Rithik...you remember K?"I asked.

"Of course I remember,that electric pole girl",he laughed.

Yuvi,Annu and Vyom laughed hearing this,
"I'm in a problem Rithik,now I see only you as my lost last hope",I said.

"First tell me what happened you asshole,you are making me worried",he said.

I sighed and told him everything.

"Rithik..you there?"I called.

"Yes I am...Mahir don't worry,I will be back by this weekend.The first thing I will do after coming back to India is,I will leave Shivanya in her parents home and I will come to you,immediately",he said.

"I'm scared as shit Rithik...my marriage..it's..it's breaking",my voice broke and I sniffed.

"Mahir bhai...calm down",Yuvi said and they were rubbing my shoulders.

"Mahir,don't loose hope.I'm there to help you.Nothing will happen to your marriage.Trust me,I know how to solve this",Rithik said and I sniffed.

"Thanks man..thank you so much",I said wiping corner of my eye.

"Don't thank me,treat me after coming there",he laughed and I smiled.

"OK,take care of Shivanya and come back soon",I said.

"Yes Mahir,I will be back,just two more days.And take care of Bela too,she must be going through a lot",Rithik said and my heart pained.

"Yeah..I will.Take care",I said.

"Take care man",he said and hanged up.

"Mahir..who is Rithik?"Vyom asked.

"Rithik,my university friend.We both went to college together in abroad,a very good friend of mine",I said.

"OK,but how can Rithik help us in this matter?"Yuvi asked.

"He is into forensics and a doctor too Yuvi",I said.

"Not a regular one,but a very reputated forensic officer and a general surgeon,who solved many cases",I said.

"Mahir sir...this will be a very big help to us",Annu said.

"Yes Annu,I lost my touch with him since two years.But now he can help us in this matter,only he can",I said.

"Don't worry Mahir bhai,this will get solved soon",Yuvi said.

"I just hope it ends soon",I said looking out of the glass wall.

"And Mahir,Annu is trying to collect more information about her boyfriend too",Vyom said.

"Yes,we need that also.Keep putting an eye on him also Annu",I said and she nodded.

This is the only hope I'm having right now,before it get damaged completely.

Everyone left and I was sitting in my cabin,Annu came in,
"Sir..you don't worry about the production work,we are handling it",Annu said.

"Yes Annu,my focus is only on K now",I said.

"Sir..now it's been weeks,K must be two months pregnant.We have to finish this before her bump starts showing up",Annu said worriedly.

"Yes Annu,that's what my problem is.I want this to end soon...I'm not able to take it",I said rubbing my temples.

"Don't worry sir,Rithik sir will help us.We will expose K,I can't see you and Bela mam breaking like this",Annu said wiping her tears.

"Annu I completely forgot about you,how is your health now?"I asked.

"Sir don't worry about me,I'm all good.You just worry about Bela mam,not even about K",Annu said.

I wiped my lone tear and Annu was comforting me,
"Please sir,don't break down like this..everything will be alright",Annu said and I hugged her.

"Please sir,you are my support system..you can't break like this",she said rubbing my back.

I wiped my tears and pulled back,and I saw Bela standing in front of us,in tears.

When did she come here?

She looked at me and Annu,she sobbed,
"Bela mam..it's not what you are thinking...mam",Annu was trying to explain and she ran away.

Fuckkkkkk!!!

BELA

I spoke with mom and dad for sometime and now dad's driver was driving me back home,
"Excuse me,can you take me to our office?"I asked.

"Yes,sure mam",he said and took a u turn.

I was standing in front of my office after few minutes.I went inside and everyone were greeting me.I just gave a small smile to everyone and got into elevator.

I just want to see Mahir!

I reached his floor and saw Yuvi and Vyom talking,
"Bela babhi?"Yuvi asked.

I sniffed and walked towards them,
"It's OK..don't cry..come inside",Vyom said taking us to his cabin.

"Bela don't cry...we are..we are working on this",Vyom said.

"My home is breaking Vyom..K is destroying us",I sobbed and he rubbed my back.

"Babhi...she will not do anything,she can't.We are working on it,Mahir bhai is working on it",Yuvi said helding my hands.

"Yes Bela,Mahir and us,we are working on it.We will expose K soon,you don't cry like this and spoil your health",Vyom said.

"Why did you come here Bela babhi?"Yuvi asked.

"I just wanted to see him..I want to see Mahir",I sobbed.

"Babhi..",Yuvi said.

"It's OK..go straight and first right Bela,go",Vyom said.

I stood up and wiped my tears.I thanked them both and walked towards Mahir's cabin.

As I entered his cabin,my heart pained,again.

He and Annu are hugging!

Mahir saw me and he was shocked,even Annu also.

This is adding more salt to my wounds!

"Bela mam..it's not what you are thinking..mam",Annu was trying to explain and I ran away from there,sobbing.

Everyone looked at me shocked,crying and running in their office.

I'm not hurt because he is hugging Annu,I'm hurt because he is seeking comfort from her.

Where am I standing in his life now?

"Bela..",

"Babhi...",I heard Yuvi and Vyom's voice.

I ran and got into the elevator.I exited the office and got inside the car,
"Please...go back to my apartment",I said wiping my tears.

"Sure mam",he said and I was sobbing,wiping my tears again and again.

He doesn't want to share his pain with me?He can share it with Annu,but not me?I don't deserve this?Annu is more important than me,he will share everything with her but nothing with me.

I sobbed and my phone was ringing,it was Rehaan.I composed myself and answered,
"Hello",I spoke.

"Bela..you fine?"he asked.

"Yes I am..what's the matter?"I asked.

"Bela I will be running late in the evening,I forwarded the grocery list.Can you go for grocery shopping,only few things are left?"he asked.

"Sure Rehaan,I will take them.Don't worry",I said and hanged up.

"Can you stop near a grocery store?"I asked.

"Yes mam,there's one in the next stop",he said and I nodded.

I was getting calls from Yuvi and Vyom but not from Mahir.I switched off my phone and went inside the store.I saw the list and took all the items needed.

I felt dizzy again and held the trolley tightly.Why am I feeling like this?I composed myself and took a water bottle and grabbed a chocolate,
"Can you bill these...soon?"I asked near the counter.

"Yes mam",they said and gave me my water bottle and chocolate

I drank water and felt a little better.I ate that chocolate and felt relaxed.Did I get diabetes?

Huh..no!

Why am I feeling like this from few days?

I need to ask mummy about it.I took rest of the items and went for billing.My driver took the grocery bags and was putting inside the trunk.I was completing my chocolate and I saw K.

She is coming near me.What does she want more?I looked at her stomach and looked away,Mahir's child!

"Hello Bela..how are you?"she asked softly.

I just looked at her with anger and looked away,
"I'm sorry to ask like this but..will you get married again?"she asked.

"What?"I asked,my anger raising.

"Yeah,I mean Mahir told that you both are getting divorced in six months...so..will you get married again?"she asked and my world stopped,slipping from my hands.

"I and Mahir will be taking care of our child..and you....",she was talking and I was walking blankly to my car.

Mahir is giving me divorce?

"Home..right now",I said and my driver started the engine.

He is ending our relationship,our marriage?

Tears were flowing from my eye's and my throat went dry.I felt suffocating..this can't happen!

Mahir...divorce and me?

No.

"No...no...",I was panicking.

"Mam..are you alright?"the driver asked.

"I'm..I'm..good..go home..soon",I said.

"Mam we reached",he said and I looked around.

"Give..give these bags in my cafe...and..go",I said.

"Sure mam",he said and I got down.

I got into elevator and sobbed,I slumped down and cried muffling my sobs.

He wants to end our marriage!

Mahir wants to end our marriage,he is going to live with K and his child,
"No...ahh...no..",I sobbed clutching my chest.

The elevator pinged and I came out.I opened our door with my key card and saw Mahir sitting on the couch.Dried tears stuck on my cheeks and still they were flowing,
"Bela where have you been?"he asked standing up.

I slowly walked to him,no hope,no love,only pain in my eye's.

"Why can't you answer your calls Bela?"he yelled helding my shoulders.

I looked at him and removed his hands from my shoulders and stepped back,he was looking shocked,
"You..you are....giving me..a divorce?"I asked in a low tone and his eye's widened.

"Bela...",he said.

"You are giving me a divorce?Tell me Mahir?"I shouted helding his collar.

I left his collar and stepped back,
"You are giving me a divorce...you are..you are leaving me..for K",I cried slumping on the floor.

"Bela..listen to me",he said coming near me.

"How can you do this Mahir?It's not me ending our relationship...it's you..you are ending it with a divorce",I cried clutching my heart.

He was standing silently looking at me,tears flowing from his eye's,
"How can you forget about us Mahir?The time we met..got married,spent our days together..one year Mahir..freaking one year...",I shouted pushing him with my fists.

"You said you love me...then divorce?You will be with K?She told me everything",I cried.

"You always believe her...that is the mistake you are doing Bela",Mahir said making me stand.

"Maybe I'm believing everything she is saying,but divorce?She won't say it until and unless you told her...she told me...she told me that you applied for a divorce and...in six...months..we....",I cried.

"You are ending it Mahir...I never thought about it...divorce..that word also...and you....what have I done?Why are you all torturing me like this",I cried helding his collar.

"You forgot everything about us and applied for a divorce?How can you?"I cried punching his chest.

He is ending it,and this is the end of me.

"You are not just ending this marriage Mahir...you are ending me with this",I said stepping back.

"Bela..no..listen to me",he said stepping forward.

"No..even I was begging you like this since three weeks..you tried to listen to me?"I sobbed.

"And divorce..you don't want to be with me.That means..K is right..she is right.She is pregnant with your child",I said sobbing.

"I dint believe her that day but today...today she is right...she is pregnant with your child",I yelled.

"And you are...you are leaving me for her...for your child...",I cried.

"Bela don't jump into conclusions..listen to me",he said.

"I'm listening..tell...what will you tell?"I sobbed.

"I told her about divorce because..I have to",he said.

"This is not a joke Mahir.Marriage and divorce...they are not a joke",I sobbed wiping my tears.

"You want to divorce me right?Apply for it...apply...we will get divorced in six months and...then..you go and stay with her and...your child...I won't be coming in middle..I won't..go..go and be with her...leave me...I..I will leave",I cried and he wiped his tears looking at me.

"Bela I'm not leaving you...I dint mean that about divorce",Mahir said helding my shoulders.

"That is the meaning of divorce Mahir...we can't live together after divorce..if we will...they will call me a whore...a slut",I shouted and he was shocked.

"You not only broke my trust but...you broke my heart Mahir...you crushed it under your feet,under your fame..under your celebrity status.I was a normal girl...and you are a celebrity...you could get anyone...K..you both could be together.Why..why did you choose me...to spoil my life...why me?"I cried.

"And when I said..I will leave..I will really leave...and when I will leave..I will never come back..never...even if you come and ask me...then also I...I will not come back...I will not come back",I cried and stepped back.

"Bela..no..don't talk like this,I will not leave you...Bela...",he was talking and I stepped back.

"Not you Mahir..I am leaving you today...and I...I will never come back...you broke me today,completely.I was shattered that day and broken completely today..only because of you..you only",I cried.

"And after these six months...I will..I will never enter your life again...I will never",I said and ran to my room.

"Bela...Bela...stop",I heard Mahir's faint sounds but I was climbing the stairs and got into my room,locking the door.

"Why me...always?What have I done?"I shouted slumping down on the floor.

"Divorce...he is ending it..he is ending our marriage..ending us",I cried clutching my heart.

I touched the diamond and cried,he is ripping this from my neck!

I don't know how my poor heart is taking it,all of this!

"Huhhh...Mahir..why are you doing this...breaking us apart...all our love,our emotions..it's all a joke..you are making it a joke...huhhh..ahhh",I shouted.

I removed my wedding chain and throwd it on the bed.I wiped the vermilion and tried to remove the anklet,
"It's all over...it's all over",I cried removing the anklet he gave me and throwed it on the bed.

I lost the reason to live today!

Not then,but now...it's over now!

Officially!
