Chapter 4 (The Decision)

Chapter 4

The decision

It’s early in the morning. Just the next morning after that stressful night. I already called my lawyer. While packing my bag, I got a message. It’s from my secretary, whom I asked to book my tickets.

Your tickets have been booked. Is it that important to go?

- Yes

I replied.

I was pretty sure about my decision, felt excited, nervous, happy as well as sad. Happy that I’ll see them and sad because maybe they are angry. But I’m really excited about seeing my daughter. This year she turned 5, almost the same age as in my married life. What if she hates me for the fact that I left her there all alone? Maybe she feels that I don’t love her, but little did she know that I thought about her every day. I tried to control myself from seeing her current photos, because if I did so, then I'd lose my grip and run straight towards her. But whatever the situation is, I’ll try to convince her, I’ll try to make things clear , in these last days I’ll make her the most loved child of all time.

“Is that your luggage?”

That’s my husband who almost scared me with his voice.

“Looks like..”

“Going for a business trip?”

No!”

“Then?”

“Come downstairs and call everyone. I need to talk to everyone.”

I called a maid to help me with the luggage. Then we walked downstairs. I can see Neer coming back from the morning walk.

“Bro , are you going somewhere?”

I don’t respond, just give her a smile which is filled with peace.

“Aditya??” She whispers.

I nodded. She even gave me a smile, a smile filled with relief. I can see my lawyer as well as the other family members walking towards me.

“Are the papers ready?” I asked my lawyer.

He nods and replies “Yes, you can check it once. I added all the points you mentioned.”

I read all the documents while the whole family is confused about what’s happening. An American touristor at my side and legal papers in my hands. After reading all the papers, I signed them and handed them to Neer.

“Here you go! This company is yours. Officially”

She is confused and refuses to take .

“Is it a joke or something like that?”

“No, look, we all know that I’m just here for a few months, so rather give my company to a deserving person like you.”

“And what about my son?” Ishwari pokes.

“ Jui! Are you out of your mind? I’m your husband so you have to give it to me no matter what.” He screams .

I didn’t even give them a look. Neer and I were making eye contact. Where we were communicating about how good she is with the company and she deserves it.

“You know how to handle it. Do not give it to someone who doesn’t deserve it!”

These lines were enough for her as a congratulations note. I took my bag and started walking towards the main gate. Only then Akash came to me , hold my hand tightly and push me towards the wall. He has always been like that. If something happens against his will, then he becomes wild. And now I’m used to it.

“Do you even know how hard I worked for this company? You have no idea about that. Just get the f**k out of my life. You know what, you deserve to die. I hate you so much I can't believe I literally wasted 5 years of my life with you.”

"As if I enjoyed being with you? I hated every moment with you. I hated you treated me. You have no idea how bad you and your family treated me."

A silence filled the room.

"Die soon honey! And I hope that I would never see you again, living or lifeless."

He lets me go. But the marks are already on my hands. I leave that house with the hope that I can be happy again and never see such shitty faces again.

But yeah, there is a surprise for Akash. He might be getting the divorce papers soon with the alimony he can't afford.

I’m at the airport waiting for further instructions. A thought just came to my mind that I haven’t told my mom that I’m leaving today. I prefer messaging her rather than calling her. I texted her about my departure. Expecting no emotional message, I didn’t even think she would reply.

I just hope this decision leads to a beautiful path.

I’m scared, after all it does not take much strength to do things, but it requires a great deal of strength to decide what to do.

The total time length of my flight is 16 hours and almost 16 min, also we are already delaying. So I do have a lot of time to take rest. I try to sleep as it’s the only thing you can do in such a long flight. But for people like me it’s really hard to sleep as I have poor sleep. I do need pure silence and dark as hell to sleep. While trying to sleep that beautiful past comes back with its reflections. Flashback hits.
