NISHA"Pregnant?"I was shocked. I couldn't even believe papa's words. I am pregnant with Avyaan's baby?"Yes!" He nodded.I went quiet. I didn't even know how to process this information and react. I just stared at Papa."Hey? Are you okay?" He asked me in an concerned voice."I... I don't know," I honestly admitted."Should I call the doctor?" He asked."No! Can... Can you please leave me alone for a while?" I requested.He looked at me and mildly smiled. "Okay!" He agreed.I nodded and he walked out of the hospital ward.The moment he went away, I almost bursted into tears, but I somehow controlled it. I was pregnant. I had a baby growing in my womb and in no way I was prepared for it.I was just twenty-two and I knew nothing about parenting, I was too young for it and I didn't even know. There was a lot now. I kept on wondering, but I couldn't get to any conclusion. I just felt blank.As I continued to think about the news I just got, the doctor entered the room."Hello, Nisha.
NISHA"I... I can understand where you're coming from. But... But you have to understand my... My point of view too. I really... Really want a grandchild," papa begged me.I felt terrible as he begged me. I couldn't say him no straight to his face, because no matter how Avyaan treated me, papa adored me as I'm his own daughter and now, I felt like I owed him."Papa!" I mumbled.I didn't even know what to say or how to deal with the situation."I... I can understand your hesitation. I can understand the conflict you're going through. I can understand it all, but, Nisha. Please, please try to understand. If you give this grandchild to us, we'll do anything you want," he spoke.I was silent for a moment and looked at him."Wh...what anything?" I asked him, curiously."Anything! Anything you want," he spoke and his voice had a certain tone of excitement.I just blankly stared at him."You... You want to stay away from Avyaan, right? I'll guarentee it. I'll guarentee that you won't see his
NAMITI gulped, Avyaan knew everything that I did and it scared me. I was scared now, and I could hear my heart beating fast."Wh...what are you saying, Avyaan?" I questioned him."Don't call me Avyaan right now. I'm your boss," he firmly responded."B...Boss!" I stammered."Now tell me. Did you give information about Nisha's parents to Nisha when we were in Belgium? Whatever they're doing, what's going on with them and how they're coping their grief? Did you tell her everything?" He asked me.I knew now that I couldn't lie anymore as he knew everything. I was screwed."Answer me, Namit!" He demanded."Yes!" I nodded."Did you tell my wife about my ex girlfriend and our relationship?" He asked."Yes!" I answered."Why?" He questioned.I was silent. "I expect the truth from you, Namit. Tell me, why?" He shouted at me."Because she asked me for it," I answered."She's like a kid, and you will tell her everything she demands for?" He shouted at me.I didn't say a word. I just looked dow
NISHAAfter I reached home, Neetu brought me a cup of tea."It's a special tea made by me. Try it you will feel relaxed," she chirped."Thank you!" I replied and took the cup from her.I took a sip, and she was correct, the tea tasted amazing and it did make me feel relaxed."The tea is amazing," I complimented her."I told you," she winked.I smiled. She's such a bubbly and lively lady, that she made my apartment feel like home in just two days."Do you want anything to eat?" She asked me."No! Come sit by my side," I replied.She sat beside me."Tell me about you, Neetu. Your family and all," I asked.I felt a strong urge to know her."Well, my husband passed away fifteen years ago. Since then, I took care of my family by being a nanny. I'm a single mother to my kids," she proudly spoke."Where are your kids?" I asked her."My daughter wanted to study in Europe, so Mr Rathore decided to take care of her studies. He helped her settle down there and everything else," she answered."Wo
NISHA"Since I do not know your address, I can't reach to you. So, If you want to see your darling older brother breathing before he leaves the world, then quickly come to the location given below."I was horrified. I immediately knew the text wasn't from Namit, it was from Avyaan. I almost choked on my breathing. He knew my whearabouts, he knew where I was and maybe he knew everything about Namit's deeds.I quickly dialled his number and tried to call him. I wanted to make sure he's okay, but his phone was switched off now. I panicked.I started having a breakdown, crying and panicking. The world around me started to spin and I couldn't think clear. "No! No! No! This can't happen," I cried out."Ma'am! Are you okay?" Neetu barged in my room and held my arms."I... I need to go," I screamed and rushed out of the apartment.I quickly got out and sat on the first cab I could find."Please! Please rush fast," I pleaded the driver as he drove fast towards the location.Within forty minut
NISHAAnd in a moment, all the courage, all the anger that I gathered throughout the year vanished in a moment. He made me realise I'm weak and worthless in just a second. That I'm just a slave, Avyaan's slave.I looked at him with teary eyes."You're a monster," I spat.He chuckled."Yes, shona. I'm a ruthless monster, that's why, I'm called as the Demon," he responded.He then immediately left my arms, making me walk a couple of steps backwards. I stared at him as he walked around the space."Let me clear your mind, shona. I should feed some informations in your head. It's necessary darling," he muttered.I continued to stare at him, feeling defeated."First things first. You and Namit, you both aren't related by blood, so all this brother sister relationship, it's just a sham," he chuckled.I looked at him, I had no idea he could think so low. It made me feel disgusted."And secondly, you know Namit for an year, and he has been with me for more than fifteen years. He is my best fri
AVYAANI was about to shoot Namit when I heard Nisha's words. She's willing to kill herself and her child to save Namit? I gulped and turned around.I walked towards her, she was standing there, holding the katana tightly and looking at me. She looked scared, yet she had a confidence that she's willing to do anything."Wh...what did you say?" I asked her."Whatever I said, that's the truth. If you do anything to Namit, I'll kill myself and my baby," she shouted."Y..your baby?" I stammered.I couldn't believe her words. She's pregnant? She has my baby in her womb? And she didn't dare to tell me?"Yes," she nodded."Say that again," I shouted at her.She closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths, while I continuosly stared at her."I'm pregnant," she announced.And at that moment, I went numb. She was for sure pregnant now."Leave us alone!" I shouted.And then, everyone present in the room left one by one, leaving me, Nisha and Namit alone.The moment everyone were gone, I left my g
NISHAAs I was in the ambulance, taking Namit to the hospital, I couldn't help hut think about everything that I said to Avyaan.At this moment, I knew I could never fall in love with Avyaan, but ever since I took the decision to keep this baby, my thought process regarding him started to change.For the first time, I did try to convince myself to be with Avyaan, maybe because if I did that, my baby would have a father in his life. But then, after seeing Avyaan's behaviour, I don't think that would be a good idea. It's better to be a single mother than to have a father like Avyaan.Soon enough we reached the hospital and Namit was rushed to the operation theatre. I rushed with Namit and soon enough we reached to the doctor."His condition is pretty serious," the doctor spoke after seeing his condition."Save him, please," I pleaded."We'll try our best. Please inform his family," he responded."Actually... He doesn't have any family," I spoke up."Oh!" The doctor responded, "but we do
