Writer's point of view

Preeti was standing at the terrace of their house holding some papers in her hand. She lit the lighter and bring it close at the corner of the papers. Documents catch the fire immediately and soon flames rising up turning the documents into ashes.

She threw the burning papers into the bonfire which was lightning in the metal pot. Then she took her phone and dial a number.

"Neha, I had done my part. Now it's your turn." Tears slide down from her eyes and her voice turned heavy.

......

"Okey.." She hung up the phone and looked at the burning ashes of documents which she just burnt.

She sit down on the nearby bench and looked at the sky which turned into dark. Moon and stars shining, cutting the darkness of night and make it more beautiful.

She wants to tell Siddharth about the kidnapping but she was afraid that someone will hurt Siddharth or any other family member like last time.

No one at home. Bua ji an Mom went to meet their relatives along with Keerti and Reina. They wants to take her also but she had to stay back because she had important work to do before it got too late. Siddharth is not at home. He went out of town for two weeks for some work. Preeti tried to stop him but he was stubborn to go and that day they had their first serious fight after their marriage. After his accident Preeti was restless about his safety. She didn't want him to get away from her sight. He didn't call her since the day he went but she know he is safe. She can do anything for him. She wants to be strong and face any difficulties for him.

She knew destiny is playing with them again and testing their love but she didn't know to pass this test she had to coloured her hand with someone's blood.

Tears slide down from her eyes when she looked down on her hand which was coloured with someone's blood few days ago. She doesn't know how she live further in a guilt that she killed someone.

It was a stormy day. Rain was pouring heavily and Preeti rushed out from the mansion, after getting a call which she was waiting for whole day. She tried Siddharth's number many times but he wasn't picking up her call and leave the message that he will call her later.

She saw a cab was waiting for her, outside the house and someone was waiting for her inside the car. She set inside the cab and drove away from the opposite direction of the city.

But when she came at night her clothes were stained with blood. Her cream white shirt and denim jeans was stained with the blood and wasn't her. She wasn't wounded. It was the blood of the man she killed.

Preeti was looking like ghost like someone sucked her soul from inside her and now she turned into a dead body. Her eyes are puffy and blood shot red. Tears were didn't stopping in her eyes.

No one was at home. Everyone went to the relatives for two days and she stay back to complete the important task. She walked to her room like a lifeless body and hopped inside the shower.

She broke into tears as soon as cold water touch her cold skin.

"Ssiiddhhaarrrth.." She slide down to the floor while screaming his name. She was calling for him in pain. She wants him to hug her in his warm embrace and telling the soothing words in her ear that everything will be fine. He will take care of her.

She laid on the floor and curled into ball while cold water is falling on her. She is calling for help.

Strom wasn't calming down and Rain was pouring whole day and it was night now. It was like sky is also crying along with her, seeing her pain and she didn't know when she black out but when she woke up in morning she is still in shower and her body is burning up in high fever. Making her health condition worst than before.

She came back to the flashback and more tears escaped from her eyes when she remembered that horrible day. She was hiding things from Siddharth but she doesn't to be weak anymore. She knows she is the weakness of Siddharth but she doesn't let anyone to take advantage of it. She doesn't want to be his weakness anymore. He protects her many time but now it's her turn to protect him. She wants to make him strong by standing beside him. But she never knew that for that she had to kill someone, she had to take someone's life.

"Awe...don't miss my little brother that much. He will be at home soon." Reina came to her sight and set beside Preeti.

Preeti wiped the tears from her eyes while turning her head to the other side and gave Reina a smile.

"How are you feeling now?" Reina asked looking at Preeti.

"I'm fine now...When you came?" Preeti asked Reina.

"Just five minutes ago. We all enjoyed a lot in our relatives. I wish you could come with us." Reina said.

"I will..next time." Preeti said while giving her a half smile.

"At your marriage time krisha's dad fall sick and Mom was also not well so we can't attend your wedding but I heard what happened with both of you and why Siddharth broke the engagement. But I am glad you are back in his life. " Reina said while looking at Preeti.

"We both meant to be together." Preeti said while looking at the horizon. She turned her head to Reina  and gave her a small smile.

"Preeti you know..a girl leave her house for her husband and her husband wants to protect her and wants to give all love so that she doesn't miss her family and I saw this type of protectiveness and love in Siddharth's eyes for you. He wants to protect you and give all love to that he misses in two years. In your married  life many obstacles will yet to come. People will be jealous of you and try to create misunderstandings between both of you but never let them come between both of you. Never hide things from each other and talk on your differences. Hold each other's back and be strong when one of you get weak." Reina said looking at Preeti.

"What if someone hide things to his/her love one to save him for a heart break or more than that. What if that someone did a horrible sin and afraid to tell him because she knows if she tell him, maybe he will look at her with hatred and she will can't see hatred for her in his eyes." Preeti said turning his head to her front and look at the moon.

"Everyone hide things. No one is perfect. But we should tell to our partner before it gets too late because no matter how bigger sin is,  her partner will trust her eventually and forgive her because he love her." Reina said looking  at Preeti.

After that Reina and Preeti both sit there for a while looking at the sky and lost in their own thoughts.

"Mami...I want a chocolate milk." Krisha run to Preeti and requested her for chocolate milk while giving her toothy smile.

Preeti looked at her innocent face and nodded her head while giving her a small smile. Krisha stood on her toes and kiss on Preeti's cheek.

"Stop.." Preeti about to get up when Reina stop her.

"You sit here I will give her milk." Reina smiled and got up from the bench. She picked up Krisha in her arms and took her downstairs, leaving Preeti alone on terrace.

Preeti was sit there and thinking about what Reina just said. Whatever she said it applies on her if she didn't committed that sin. She has someone's blood on her hand. She was afraid that if Siddharth will come to know about that he will hate her and it will break her and shattered her already broken soul if she saw hatred in Siddharth's eyes for her.

Now she is understanding why Siddharth hide things from her two years ago because he didn't  want yo hurt her, though it wasn't justify but she is doing the same thing, hiding things from him. She wants to tell him everything but she was afraid that he will hate her because she is cowered.

She looked at the moon and asking the God why he is taking her test? Why can't she and Siddharth live happy? Tears are sliding down from her eyes when she is looking at the moon.

****

Moon is shining in sky cutting the darkness of the night. Siddharth was standing on the balcony, with a whiskey glass in his hand and looked at the moon while thinking about his beautiful wife.

It has been two weeks when he last saw her beautiful face and hear her angelic voice. He was too busy in work that he didn't get a time to talk to her.

"Siddharth please don't go. You just recovered." Preeti plead to Siddharth not to go as soon as Siddharth break the news on her that he will be out of town for two weeks.

"Preeti..I will be fine. I can't ignore this work." He said while carelessly putting his clothes in bag.

"Siddharth Please listen to me this time. Please don't go. Please send someone else." Preeti hold the handle of his bag when he walked out from the room.

"Preeti...don't irritate me. I am not child whom you locked inside the room because he got hurt. It was just an small accident  god damnit. I can't sit here for my whole life." Siddharth barked on her angrily and leave the room while jerking her hands off from the bag.

"Siddharth...Siddharth..Please stop.. "

He still remember when she was pleading him not to go because she was afraid since when he met an accident. It ach his heart when he looked in her red and teary eyes but this work can't be ignored.

He came to the near by town for important work which he can't ignore. No one knows about his visit because he came here to meet someone and find secrets. Things are so much messed up and he still have some doubts.

Preeti called him many times but he was too busy to attend her call and only text her that he will call her late but again he was busy to finding truth. He didn't even said sorry to her for his rued behavior. She was just concerned for him and reacted according to it. He will do the same if he will on her place. But now his work is done here and will leaving tomorrow for home but before that he wants to talk Preeti, his beautiful wife to calm his mind and heart because this time he really wants to be in her arms.

He pulled out the phone from his pocket to call Preeti but before he could call her Andrew, his body guard call him. No one knows where Siddharth went but being Siddharth's body guard, Andrew has every information of him in order to protect him.

Siddharth picked his call and put the phone on his ear.

"Any news from james? " Siddharth asked to Andrew.

James was missing for more than three weeks and Siddharth and his man trying to track him down but they can't reach him.

"No sir, not yet. My man are trying to track him." Andrew said.

"Andrew stop trying I need results. What about the man your team found two days ago?" Siddharth asked him.

"He is under our watch sir." Andrew said.

"Keep an eye on him." Siddharth said and about to hang up when Andrew call him again.

"What is it Andrew?" Siddharth  asked little annoyingly.

"Sir, It..It's about your sister." Andrew said.

"What about her?" Siddharth said while taking interest.

"I have send you some photos,  Please check your laptop sir."

"Hold on.." Siddharth went to his laptop and looked at the pictures which Andrew just sent to him and his blood boiled looking at the pictures.

"Are you sure about these pictures?" Siddharth groaned in anger.

"Yes sir.."

Siddharth threw the whiskey glass on floor and it broke into many pieces as soon as it touched the floor.

"Send the car. I am going home now." Siddharth barked in anger and hung up.
