Hooked! Chapter 38
"How are you so strong, after all this?" I asked Manisha."I'm not strong, lavanya. This manisha, was never strong. But this mother who wants to give her baby a respectful life, is. You are my hope. Just understand that your battle is bigger than it looks." She later told me how the gardener who was appointed here to look after the garden, was tortured by our neighbours that he just went ghost the next day. Since then she has been watering the plants when everyone here are locked inside their houses. She told me how my dad's brothers had created a drama here and claimed to have given my father a loan of 50 lakhs for my marriage. They even tried to invade this house but one of the lawyers opposed it and issued a warning to them. Since then, they are taking rounds to the local court to give them this house in place of their loans. "Dad never took any loan. And even if he did, his family members would not even include in his list." I told her, disgusted by the happenings and she asked

"Now you tell me the next step." I sighed and turned to the man who had saved my dad's life once. His name was Rajendra.He looked deep in his thoughts. "Your dad had left a will. He had named every asset of his under your name. So it also makes you liable for his loans. Now we know that your dad didn't took any loan, but the court doesn't. So we need to prove it now! " i nodded."There is no such thing!" "What are you saying uncle? YOU are saying that there is no such thing to put forth the truth? I did not expected it from you." If my trick works, he would surely take out some way."there is no such thing to prove the truth, until the conspirators accept it by their own." He said after a minute. "I can help you but you need to plan everything now."________Shivji, you need to show me the right path. You always stood by the truth, this time too, you have to. And i know you will !I tied the dhaga of mannat for the first time and prayed My Shiv ji. I came back to the priest and he g

"I can't wait now! The two days seem to be two years. Lets do the engagement today itself." I heard Harini talking to her fiancè over a phone call.We were out for an evening walk because Harini wanted to video call Hritesh and in home, ruchika was sharing her room. Their cousins were living in ruchika's room and rest of the guest rooms were filled by the relatives. Their farm house too, was alloted to the relatives. Their family was big. It seemed like whole of the punjab came here to celeberate Harini's wedding.Two days to her engagement and five days left for the case. There was no clue to prove the case wrong and the conspirators were winning it. I tried hard to make them take the case back but they only wanted dad's house in return. They said they want it for their son. Their son will live there after his marriage. They have even manipulated the neighbours of the house to speak on their favor and they happily agreed. They said that if it meant me, not entering their society, th

The car stopped somewhere but i could still not gather the courage to open my eyes and see where. "I.. I don't want..to go...home." i said when i felt the door of my side opened.In a second, i was lifted from my place and i peeked on my one eyes. We were near a big building, which i had never seen, and abhishek with a foul face carried me. "Please.. put me.. down" . I requested him but he paid no attention and kept walking. I sighed giving up and clutched his collars trying to disappear.I anticipated that he may keep me down in the lift but he didn't. He kept on lifting me even when he showed his card to the door of a floor and only settled me down in a bed of a bedroom. "Abh..Abhishek.""Speak not a word more!" He growled and went out of the room. Instead of seeing and examining my surrounding, i just sat afraid of what the day holds more for me. "Have it!" I looked up at him as he gave me glass of water and tears filled my eyes.You are not weak! Stop crying!"I'm..i'm sorry.." i

"Did you ever took me as a liability?" I asked abhishek as he served me the meal he ordered. He shook his head. "Not even once?" He again shook his head. "Do you feel yourself as a baby sitter?""Yeah. Because you are more stubborn than that kid" i told him that kid's name Yash. "Yash. He atleast gets pacify with those candies but you? Its hard to get you relaxed.""Well, you could've treated me with KitKat you know. They are my lollipops." I grinned. Crying my heart out, definately put me to ease. "Will note it down. Now have it. We have to go back." He instructed like dad and motioned me towards his wrist watch. 5:33 p.m. "You idiot! I had to take my saree from laundry today. Tomorrow is harini's engagement. My car? Where is it? And you. How you came here in first place?" I freaked out.What is happening? I'm not on my periods and still getting these mood swings."Relax woman! Your car is with police, will take it tomorrow itself. We'll pick your saree in way and i wanted to surpr

"God, you all are looking like fairies today." Mom exclaimed as she saw harini, ruchika and me posing for the girls photograph in the parlour. She took our evil eyes one by one and kissed our forehead."I knew my choice is best." Ruchika flipped her open hairs and it hit on my face. Mom and harini laughed while i gave a you-are-dead sign to Ruchika. "But Harini is looking like a queen." Mom hugged Harini and i could see her tears in the brim. "You will go to your in-laws after this week. May god give you immense happiness in your life and fulfill every wish of yours. But please don't forget us."Harini hugged her back. ''You think chachi, i will ever forget you. You have saved me so many times when i used to come home late. I'm gonna miss you.""Wow." We turned to Sonali chachi who was standing outaide the room and watching all of us. She entered. "So my daughter won't miss me?""Oh com'on mom, you know i'll miss everyone, especially your chinese food." Harini hugged her mom and chac

"Jine mera dil luteya..aahaa.." Our group screamed and sang the song as we danced in the stage. Our group consisted all the ladies from the bride's and from the groom's side. We swayed our body like we were the dancing sensations. Even the middle generation and the older, danced like Mithun daa. Dadi, she was like a bomb today. Dressed in her cream color banarasi saree, she aced the floor with her cool moves and we cheered for her. "Ab assi munde ni baari aa.." The dj changed the music to some bhojpuri songs and the gents from groom's side started doing that chichore dance. We left the dance floor and let them enjoy, wanting to grab some snacks. It was fun to see them dancing, until they started pulling us in the centre again.When a man, who looked in his last thirties, pulled Ruchika, she voluntarily joined them and swayed her hips. I personally didn't liked the way they were enjoying her dance. Call me orthodox or late-fashioned, but calling a girl whom you met recently, 'laila',

"Lavanya!!" Abhishek shook me and i jerked open my eyes. I realised i fell asleep in the mid of my thoughts. Now there were only three of us, abhishek, ruchika and i. No workers. "I'm taking out the car, please come with Ruchika."I nodded and he left lazily. His own eyes were filled with sleep and there were coffee cups near his chair. Nonetheless, i tried to woke ruchika up, but she looked like a drugged person. Who answers you, but is still asleep.I dragged her out and we sat in the back seat. Abhishek drove the car while we girls, took the nap. After reaching the home, Ruchika yelled a little at us to disturb her sleep and demanded to sleep in the car itself.So Abhishek lifted her and went inside while i locked the main door of the house and went to kitchen to grab a glass of water. "Tired?" I felt a hand over my shoulder and recognized the voice of mom. I nodded. "Want to eat something?" She asked. She was wearing a random woolen kurti set."No mom." I denied knowing she herse

"Now spread it like this." Lavanya slided the plastic knife over the bread and her 16 month son tried to take the knife from his mom. "Ok, now its your turn." She helped him spread the home-made jam over the bread.Once done, vihaan took the bread and ate it with his little teeth. The strawberry taste of the gem made him spin around and wave his hands in air. His way of saying wonderful. Lavanya laughed with him and quickly ate a bite of the bread before copying him. The baby giggled and spread his arms for her to pick him up and hug him. She did and kissed his chubby cheeks."Lavii, is breakfast ready?" Abhishek asked, descending the chairs while adjusting his watch. "Daddaaa.." Vihaan screamed in joy and pulled lavanya's hairs in excitement. Lavanya hissed keeping him down and the kid ran to his father."Careful, vihu!" Lavanya shouted but who she was kidding? Vihaan knew every inch of the house, even the corners she didn't knew before.She shook her head before taking the breakfa

"Shh...stop crying baby, look mumma has so many toys. Wanna play?" I tried to console my two month old baby boy, Vihaan, who was crying continuously from an hour. No matter how hard i try, he didn't stopped crying."Hungry? Is my boy hungry? Come, mumma will feed you." I opened the buttons of blowse and took Vihaan near my breasts but he didn't latched like other times and now tears pooled in my eyes. "What happened baby? Are you angry from mumma? Please stop crying."I hooked back my blowse and took him in a hug, patting his back. "My baby, my sweetheart. Stop crying." I cooed but he was not in the mood to shut his crying. "Are you hurt somewhere? Let mumma see." His tears were like a dagger for me.I laid him down on the mattress and took off his clothes slowly until he was in his birthsuit. I checked for any discomfort but there was none. "You want massage? Lets massage you!" I took the baby oil from the side table and started massaging him while making some funny faces.For a seco

The next day, abhishek took lavanya to kanpur and left her there with a heavy heart. He drove back, not wanting to see her never-ending tears. Their family tried to stop him but he just shook his head.Due to driving so much, his body was sore and he laid on his bed (after informing that he reached) to take a nap. But an hour passed and he was still wide awake. He missed his wife in his arms and the bump he will always draw patterns in. While in Kanpur, lavanya sat in her new bed as she munched in her sweet-corns, and ignored everyone who tried to talk to her."I agree she is angry from bhai, but why is she not talking to us?" Vansh was irritated. Ruchika nodded her head as everytime she went to feel the baby, lavanya asked her to leave her alone. "Its her hormones, beta. She is just upset that Abhishek left her here. In no time, her mood will automatically change." Revti answered."Lets cook her favorite dish, she will be fine." Sonali suggested and all agreed. .. Lavanya looked

Pregnancy comes with many hardships. And with lavanya, it was already worsening day by day. She kept vomitting everything she ate and the morning nausea did not let her sleep properly. Abhishek tried his best to convince her to eat even if she vomits it. But lavanya had strictly told him that she will only live by water, but she won't vomit. It took all her energy. "Baby, if you won't eat anything, how will you take care of our baby?" He said rubbing her back as she laid over him, like a lazy dog. "I already feel exhausted in two months. Vomitting just makes it worst." She mumbled, trying to sleep. "Because you are not eating anything. You want to have your milk shake? Ice-cream or anything?" He asked, not caring if it was healthy or not. He only wanted her to eat anything or it might be a problem. "No. I just want to sleep." He sighed at her answer and rubbed her back, patting it slightly. "If you don't eat four meals atleast in a day, i'm going to tell your students that you w

The two days went in a blink as the day of their reception arrived. It was also the completion of six months of their marriage and thus Lavanya performed the rituals of removing the chuda with the ladies. She was excited. One day back, she resigned from her job and decided to open her own psychology classes after they return from their honeymoon. Vansh proposed Kritika near the India gate and the latter cried in happiness. Their parents were happy and they decided to marry them in the next year. Lavanya got ready in her gown that she saved before, when arms snaked through her waist. "You look stunning." Abhishek muttered, hugging her and she leaned back. "And you look beautiful." She said, muffling her laughter, knowing he only loved 'handsome, hot and sexy' as compliment. He twirled her in his arms and pulled her close. "Beautiful, huh?" He slammed his lips on hers and she kissed him back, messing his hairs. "Now what's your take?" He asked as she panted for air. "You are

"Abhishek, it's difficult. It's too difficult to cope up with the new atmosphere especially when you are a child who could not speak properly. There were only few who would try to understand me patiently, without making fun of me. Most of them would only make me feel differentiated, as if I was not a human who can be hurt too. Just because I chose to not fight back, so my dad won't get to know about all of it, they thought I was their.. Experiment bag. They would lock me in empty rooms, tear my notebooks, hide my bag, throw water on me and most importantly, they would hurt me by their sharp language. Or pata hai, ek baar jab aap ye soch lete ho ki shayad aap me hi koi kami hogi, toh har buri cheez hone me aap apne aap ko hi blame krte ho. Koi aapka message seen krke chor de, abruptly call end krde, aapki taraf dekh ke Hass de, ya apni nazre pher le. Aisa lagta ki you are just worthless. Confidence ki toh band baj jati hai.

As lavanya opened the doors of their room, she looked at the black suit jacket of Abhishek, hanging on the railings. She ignored it, going down when she noticed that the dining table was all set with the breakfast and Abhishek was just sitting on his chair. Just sitting. When he felt her presence, he turned to look at her and for a second their eyes met, before she averted her eyes. Once again, she felt uncomfortable from his gaze. It was as if she had gone to square one. All the progress, all the steps she made towards him, were going vain. She took her handbag from the table, ignoring the shivers his eyes sent her. And before she could take step away, he stopped her by wrist and she hissed. His hold loosened and he made her sit on a the chair next to his and took the first-aid box that he made sure to bring here. He put the ointment in her wrist, on the cuts. She hissed in the sensation and he fought back the tear that was about to escape, knowing it was because of him and his an

"CUT THE DRAMA AND SPEAK PROPERLY." He yelled back and all the flashes, i thought i was over with, came running back. #"Vaishnavi, please open the door. Its..its smellind (smelling) here. Please let me tome (come) . I promise to never answer you bact (back) ..please open the door." I cried, banging the door of the girl's washeroom but she didn't complied.Instead she just laughed. "No, you bitxh. You need to be reminded that you can't take my place. How dare you top the exams when you can't even speak properly. You never gave the answers in class, i did. And you managed to top the papers? Now keep shouting from here because no one enters this wing."She left.I kept sobbing there, yelling my lungs out, but no one helped. It was only after the sweeper came and opened the door. I could not even tell him or anyone what happened, because it only meant another torture. #"And its a DOAL (goal) ...Yeahh" i jumped in happiness as our team won the basketb

Today was the reception of the couple, we missed the marriage of. Abhishek had already cleared his schedule and was getting ready in my old room while here i was struggling with the plates of my saree. Everytime i tried to pin it, it would open again because of my shaking fingers.I didn't know why but i felt anxious and like an old habit, my fingers felt a lot weak. I tried to crack the fingers but it was not of any help. I was going frustrated how i could not even wear a saree when i wear it almost everyday. "Lavanya, are you ready?" Abhishek asked knocking the door and i sighed sitting on bed and telling him to come in. And when he saw my condition, he asked me with concern, "what happened?""I don't know. Its just the plates i can't set properly." "So wear the dress you bought for their marriage." He suggested, giving me a glass of water that i gulped quickly. "It is such a pretty dress. I want to save it for another auspicious day
