I received the call and when I heard the voice of the person in the call the smile from my lips vanished and anger took on.
"Happy birthday beautiful." I heard that creep's voice
The audacity of his that he dared to call me.
"Why the hell did you call me?" I asked him calmly as much I can because today is my birthday and I don't want to ruin my mood
"is it wrong to wish the person you love on her birthday Antara?" he asked and honestly telling I want to smack his head on the wall hard
"Stop your nonsense and dare you to call me again and again I will lodge a complaint against you." Saying I cut the call and blocked his this number
"What happened? Who called you? " Pakhi asked me
"kalpit who else. That idiot does not understand the meaning of no. God knows when he will stop bothering me. He is a local gang leader that's why has so much to worry about. I said I will lodge a complaint against him but what's the catch? He will be free in the next hour. He and I both know that this won't end so soon. "I told her and she nodded her head
" He is taking too much interest in you. Do it's not good? He even claimed to love you. He is definitely cooking something in his nasty brain. "Pakhi said and can't help but agree
" Whatever it is now, let's sleep tomorrow is your big day. "Pakhi said and I smiled lowly
We both drifted to sleep and next morning got up early.
As today is my birthday we all will go to temple. We do when it's someone's birthday.
I got ready in a pink churidar and used little lip balm on my lips.
I covered my head and face with the stole only and my eyes are visible now. It's because of that kalpit. So he won't recognize me.
We all left for the temple and decided to walk as it was near our orphanage.
After reaching there we did puja and I took extra packets of prasad to distribute among Poor people and kids here. And other visitors as well.
"Amma you take others back I will come with Pakhi after distributing these.." I told her and she nodded after she left we started our work
"Pakhi I forgot to put money in the donation box please do it on my behalf. I'm feeling too lazy to go upstairs again." I told her and she rolled her eyes at me
"you won't change will you? As it's your birthday today I'm letting it go." She said and I smiled sheepishly
.
She again went upstairs and I started to distribute sweets when suddenly someone bumped with me hard and the packet fell from my hand.
"What the hell?" I screamed in anger
I turned to see a man in a hoodie and mask.
"can't you see? It's a temple not a place to jog around" I told him but he didn't say a single word but kept looking at me silently..
"are you mute?" I asked him but he didn't reacted
Oh shit! Maybe he is really mute that's why he didn't replied
"see I'm sorry for screaming but it's your fault right? You should not be jogging around the temple and get bumped with people. See all the prasad fall down." I told him and picked up the ruined packet
I will give to the street dogs they will hear why wasting it by throwing it in the dustbin.
I got up and turned to find him still standing there looking at me weird!
"Di I'm done." Pakhi said coming down from the stairs
"Let's go then." I told her
"Wait, do you have prasad left in that box?" I asked her
"Yes why?" she replied
"give me." I told her and she give it to me
I took out one sweet and forward it towards the stranger who is still staring at me silently
"Here take this! Today is my birthday so I am giving prasad to everyone." I told him and he forwarded his hand to take it
As he took it I smiled at him but he can't see me stupid me.
"Let's go Pakhi!" I told her and left from the temple
"what happened there?" she asked me
"nothing serious." I told her and she let it go
"by the way where is your surprise gift?" I asked her
"it's coming.." she said and smirked
"Does it have legs that it's coming by itself?" I asked her sarcastically
"Maybe it has legs, hands, and a face as well?" she replied and I rolled my eyes at her
We reached the area of our orphanage soon.
"Di kalpit is here," Pakhi said and I looked at him
What the hell is he doing here? And thank God amma and kids are not with us.
My beauty has become a curse for me. Every other boy like Kalpit disturbs me but the difference is they don't cross limits like Kalpit does.
"Oh ho so the birthday girl is finally here." He said eyeing me with lust evident in his eyes
"what are you doing here?" I asked him without beating around the bush
"just came to wish my love and tell you that I have fixed our wedding date as well. As now you're 20 you're grown up enough for it." He said and I just want to slap the shit out of him
"stop your nonsense and leave Kalpit. I don't want any drama on my birthday." I told him
"I am not doing any drama or talking nonsense. I love you Antara and for you I will become a good man and leave this profession as well but I need you to make me good." He said
"Kalpit I'm not a machine who makes people good or changes them that you're demanding of me." I told him knowing well enough his drama
"you have to be mine Antara if not with your will then with force." He said and hold my hand tightly
"leave my hand. What are you doing?" I said and tried to get my hand out of his grip but he didn't lose it
"Kalpit left her!" Pakhi said trying to help me but he just pushed her away
"Pakhi!"I called her name as Kalpit started to drag me
"if I was you I would not do this mistake that you are doing right now." a voice said with authority making all of us looking at the owner of the voice

Antara's pov "if I was you I would not do this mistake that you are doing right now." a voice said with authority making all of us looking at the owner of the voice Oh my god it's him! But what is he doing here? Suddenly I felt the grip of kalpit's hand lotion around my wrist and totally vanished. I looked at him to find him staring at HIM with widened eyes. Good for me actually. "may I know what's going on here?" He asked with authority in his voice "Yes sir! You can. This kalpit is forcing Antara Di to marry him and was dragging her with himself." Pakhi jumped and said even before I could react "is it? I did not know that a girl's consent is not needed for a relationship or wedding." He said in a mocking tone and I can't help but admire him even in this situation " I love her but she is not ready to accept me and my love that's why I have to force her. "Kalpit said but his voice is shaken a bit It will shake because many big people shake in fear in front of Raichand family

Antara's pov I looked at them with a questioning look but they just continued to talk. By they I mean the kids and Aashish ji. They just ignored my presence. "you came finally, what took you both so long?" Amma asked me with concern "nothing happened. We were just chilling outside." I told her I don't want to give her tension by telling about Kalpit. "Yes ma it's nothing don't worry." Pakhi supported me I looked at Aashish ji who was giving me why did you lie. But I just gave him my puppy dog eyes so he won't spill about Kalpit. It's like he understood my words and nodded his head, making me smile. "You both go and freshen up. I have some work with Mr. Raichand." Amma said "Oh please don't call me Mr. Raichand I'm not that much old you see that you have to call me that. You can call me Ashish after all I'm like your son only." He said and again my heart melted like butter in the heat of his words "we are coming." I told her and went inside my room without looking at him I o

Aashish's pov "where is he?" I asked my man who just came out from the basement "In cell 13 boss! We have treated him exactly the way you asked us to do so." He replied with a satisfactory smile on his face "good. I would like to deal with him all alone." I told him and he nodded I go inside of the basement where many torture cells are filled with their preys. But I care less about them for me now that man is the most important thing to handle. Opening the door I looked at the half dead man. " enjoying my privileges?" I asked him "please boss leave me I was not aware of your liking for her if I did then I would have never eye her. I'm sorry please forgive me." He said but I just tsked "you know what Kalpit that's the problem of men like you. They only think of girls as a thing and they can do anything with them without their will. And that's not right at all. If you like or love someone you approach them gently and make them like you not force them. "I told him " I'm sorry p

"you're looking very beautiful, Anatra. See Aashish ji is here to take you for the event. But come back on time." Amma said with a smile on her face but I got the warning behind her words "Yes amma I will drop her back on time. Don't worry about it. She is safe with me." He said and I looked down at my feet "I know that. But I'm like her mother. I have raised her and you know the mother's tension for their daughter." Amma said and my heart filled with happiness It's true that she has loved me like her daughter. She never differentiate between Pakhi and us..

Antara's pov Life takes so many turns too without any warnings that sometimes you are confused about how to take everything and believe that this is really happening. And that's what is happening with me. My life has taken so many twists and turns in just 3 months that I'm having difficulty believing everything. From getting proposed by the man whom I liked very much and now love to then realising my love for him then getting engaged to him. Yes I'm getting engaged today and I can't believe that. I'm already dressed in my engagement dress that is a Black pearl work lehenga with balck full sleeves petal work blouse...with a net black dupatta with work borderIt's chosen by him only. His family has accepted me very well. Me being an orphan hasn't created any problems in the wedding talk. They are not only rich by bank balance but their hearts as well. Only his elder brother is the one who is still a mysterious person for me other than that it's perfect for me. "Dii are you done

Anirudh's pov Gorgeous is a very small word to explain what she is. Her beauty, her innocence is out of this world. I can not find a proper word to describe her. Looking at her smile anyone can forget their pain and tension… These innocent and heavenly beauty's are really rare; they are very few in this world but the few here are with someone who is worthy of them, not someone who is unworthy. Antara is only that an innocent and heavenly beauty that should be with me not my worthless brother. He does not deserve her but I do. I was searching for her god knows where and she is here with my younger brother as his fiance… Those beautiful kajal (kohl) filled eyes twinkling with happiness as she talked. She is 20 yet her childishness is still intact inside her.. That day in the temple she bumped with me and screamed at me. If it was someone else I would have killed him or her that instant but i couldn't say anything to her killing her is something impossible. I only could see her

Author's pov Antara is sitting on her bed staring at particularly nothing. Her face is void of any emotion. "Di!" Pakhi called her "Yes!" Antara replied without looking at her "Are you fine? From the time I came back from hospital you are behaving weirdly." Pakhi said placing a hand on Antara's shoulder "I am fine Pakhi. What will happen to me? What can happen to me?" Antara asked smiling lightly "You are scaring me Di!" Pakhi said "No need to be scared of me. I won't harm you all ever even if it takes my own life to save you all." Antara said "Antara didi! Amma is calling you downstairs." Prithvi said entering inside the room "OK you go I am coming." Antara said to Prithvi who nodded his head and left Antara got up from the bed and fixed her stole around her neck. She went downstairs along with Pakhi hot on her tail. Downstairs Aashish is waiting for her as she has called him. " Antara you wanted to meet me?" Aashish asked as soon he spotted her "Yes Aashish ji! I have

It's the last chapter Author's pov "Eat something jaan!" Anirudh said but nor Antara replied or opened her mouth to eat "If you will not eat then you will be weak and will not be able to leave the bed, Eat at least for our son." Anirudh said and Antara looked at him blankly It has been 2 days since that incident and from the time she got her consciousness back she has not said a single word nor has she eaten anything. She is staring at the wall blankly like it is the most beautiful thing to see.Anirudh knew that she was raped because she was drugged and doctor confirmed that as well. Aaryav was the one who informed his father about something being wrong. He said he heard his mother screaming but he could not find her anywhere. Anirudh came back leaving the meeting in the middle and found his son crying in the hall. He did not have time to console him as the unconscious security guards were screaming something had happened that he can not even imagine. He just asked his son to

Antara's pov 2 months later It has been 2 months that Aashish is staying here with us for his work. It got extended for some reasons. Anirudh is normal and so is Aashish ji but sometimes I do feel suspicious about Aashish because accidentally he touches my hand, my waist , my neck and those accidents happen when we both are alone and that makes me think twice about him and his intentions. He was never someone who harassed girls he always respected them maybe i am thinking a bit more than needed Aaryav has formed a great bond with his uncle in such a short time.I do not know why I have a very bad feeling about today. I just hope everything stays fine. "Jaan today I will be late," Anirudh said and I frowned "Why?" I asked him "I have an important meeting with foreign clients so I need to adjust with time. That's why." He said and I nodded not liking how the day is going to be "Aashish is out of town he told me that he will be coming back tomorrow. So it will be you and Aaryav"

Antara's pov As soon as the name of our guest left his mouth I knew it would not end on a good note. Why him? Why now after 11 years? Why? I still remember the day when he left from here those eyes which held only pain and suffering from my betrayal. With time I thought everything will be fine but till today his name brings those memories back. "Why is he here?" I asked him calming my racing heart "He is my brother, obviously he will be here to meet us. He will be staying with us for some days." He said and my heart dropped "Is he alone or came with his family?" I asked him but he did not replied because we have already reached our house "Let's go out and see by ourselves only." He said and picked Aaru up as he fell asleep. I was feeling like my legs were frozen; they did not want to move at all. I am not feeling like moving out of the car. "Come out jaan!" he called me and I forced myself to come out We entered the house and found Aashish ji sitting on the couch in the hal

Antara's pov 10 years later "Mumma! Where are you?" My son Aaryav shouted as soon he entered home He can not stay a single minute without me. He goes to school and stays there. That is a big thing. "Here I am Aaru, I was making milk shake for you," I said as I went out with the glass "I missed you so much, did you miss me?" He asked his blue eyes shining with hope that I missed him Yes my baby has blue eyes though none of us have blue eyes and that makes his features different from us in a way. "I miss my baby every time he goes to school." I said and ruffled his hairs "Now get freshen up fast and drink it. I will make some sandwiches for you, you must be hungry." I told him and he nodded his head and ran towards his room I checked the clock I have time before my husband came back. Yeah my husband! I have accepted him as my husband not because I love him but for my son. I give him the respect and so called love he deserves. I have created a mirage that I love Anirudh for bot

Antara's pov "There is nothing to not understand jaan. Whatever I said was very clear. You are pregnant jaan! Which part of this did you not understand?" As soon as these words left his mouth my eyes welled up in tears and a smile came on my lips. I understood it very well that I am pregnant the first time he said it. But I wanted to confirm that I am actually pregnant " Why are you crying and smiling together?" He asked but I care less about him at this moment I am pregnant! I am carrying a life inside me. My baby is inside me! I know if any other girl was here in my place she would have started to curse the baby as well along with the father. No matter how much i hate the father i can never hate my baby because he is my part as well as much he is his part. He is my flesh and blood as well no matter which way he came but that was not his fault now was it? It is not his fault that his father is a monster and he raped his mother and that is how he came.

Anirudh's pov"Antara, wake up!" I patted her cheek as she fainted in my arms Never in my nightmares I thought that she would do this. Her slapping me cursing me in different thingsbut her trying to kill herself? Why will she do that when she knows what I can do with others if anything happens to her? I looked at the cut. It was not deep but still she was bleeding and I needed to take care of it. I took my handkerchief and tied the cut. She is covered with the bed sheet and the doctor will not be able to see her. "you should not have done that jaan. You did, wrong!" I told her unconscious form The doctor came and checked her. She was out of danger as the cut was not deep but the reason she fainted shocked me to my core. "Sir I will suggest that you keep her happy and take care of her. She is pregnant and stress can be dangerous for the baby." the doctor said and I nodded my head I will not let anything happen to my baby or my jaan. After the doctor left I looked at her stomac

Author's pov A loud sound of slap echoed in the room as Anirudh looked at Antara with pure shock not for once he expected her to slap him"How fucking dare you bitch to slap me?" Anirudh asked angrily "You know what bastard? Go to hell and never come back you monster! It is better to die than living with a pathetic creature like you. You are the worst " Antara said and cut her wrist with the help of the knife kept there for cutting fruit Author: shocked? Thinking about what is happening here? Then let's dig in the past few moments to know what exactly happened Past Light mature language Antara looked at Anirudh with a pained expression on her face; she knows it is one of his sick games, nothing else. He will never let her go. "What happened? start! You should not keep your customer waiting, you know. If you do that then they may cut off your payment. And that will not be good for you." Anirudh said and gave Antara a look that made her actually feel like a prostitute "I am your

Antara's pov A few days later "Here is your breakfast mam!" I heard the maid saying as she kept the plate filled with fruits and a glass of juice along with sandwiches in front of me "Thanks!" I whispered and she left locking the door behind her making me sighI actually have no appetite to eat any of this stuff that is in front of me. When you are dying every second you actually do not want to eat a single thing It has been 10 days since I was locked in this room and it is not the bedroom where I used to stay before. It is one of the guest rooms. I am staying here like a prisoner but a prisoner with facilities. I have a comfortable room with enough space. TV and books for entertainment and proper meals on time. But this room's Windows are closed by him. I can not see anything outside. Every room in this mansion has separate ventilation areas from where air can pass even if the door and the windows are sealed completely. I have not seen the sun for 10 days nor have I seen Aniru

Anirudh said while cutting himself an apple "Actually I want to go out today. Can I go? I want to go to a temple as today is Monday I want to worship Lord Shiva " Antara said hoping he will buy her excuse and let her go Anirudh looked at her and nodded his head in yes, making Antara's eyes shine in hope and happiness. "Take Anjali with you as well." Anirudh said crushing the new found happiness of Antara "Why will she go? What will she do there? I am going to visit a temple, not a shopping mall." Antara said immediately "Anjali will also worship in the temple and then you can visit the mall as well. I will join you if I can." Anirudh said and Antara nodded her head "Fine." she said not wanting to make him suspicious about her intentions "then I will not eat anything. First we have to worship then eat."
