Prologue
“Leave my house Sonakshi!! I don’t want to see your face ever again. You cheated on me and betrayed me and my family. I am done with you and all the drama that concerns you, so please sign these papers and leave my house and my life, forever and for good.” Rohit said and handed me the divorce papers to be by me.
“Thankgod, my father made you sign the prenup with you. I would have known better you, never loved me enough, it was just my money you were after.” He added making me regret my decision of even falling for this guy.
I wiped away my tears still trusting my husband that there might be some misunderstandings and possible someone had forced him to sign these papers as I already know his aunt doesn’t like me a lot and have a lot of issues with me, as she suspects I already know her bad deeds and all the crimes she has committed.
He was persistent about me reading and signing the papers and I did as I was told. I gathered all the strength I have in me and started reading the papers and to say I was shocked and disappointed would be an understatement. I asked myself several times as why had I believed this guy whenever he said he would be their for me, stand by me, hold my hand and would fight the world for me and not with me.
I asked him one last time to confirm that might it all be forced on him as well, might his family had forced him to sign these papers and might he would be having no idea at all what was written in these papers. “Rohit has anyone forced you to sign these papers, are they forcing you to end our relationship?” I asked and he huffed.
“I am no kid, that anyone can make me sign anything and I would do that. I have made these papers and signed them with my whole will, now please sign them and leave my life for good.” He said and turned around, his back facing me.
I turned him around facing me again holding his elbow and now I was on the verge of breaking down but still controlled myself and asked him my question “So you have made all these papers and you are aware of is written in them?” “yes I know, happy! Now sign them.”
He passed me a pen and now I lost all my cool. How could he? How could he do such a thing, how could he write such a thing and blame me. I slapped him slamming the papers on his face, everyone in his family gasped and lounged at me. But, my dear I might be weak in love, but my self respect is most important to me and I pledge to keep it that way only. I stopped all of them by just saying a single sentence. “I am still his wife, and I am talking to my husband so I hope you all will mind and won’t come between us.”
I slapped him again and again taking letting my anger and disappointment take over me. “You are aware what is written in the papers right! Wow!! How amazing could you get Mr. Rohit Sippy. You are divorcing me on the basis of infidelity! You are questioning my character, you are questioning my loyalty towards you! I can’t believe it. Thankyou so much Mr. Sippy you will definitely get what you want.”
I said and he immediately looked towards his family which I didn’t get why and also now it doesn’t matter to me anymore. He can do whatever he wants and I would leave his life for good to both of us.
I don’t want to be with someone also who couldn’t trust me and stand up for me when I need him the most. He is nothing but just the biggest mistake of my life. I wish I had listened to my friends and would not have married him in this rush. Only two months of knowing him we decided to get married and I was on cloud nine. Despite, the continuous denial from my friends I decided to go with the flow and get married to the man I thought is the love of my life and my Mr. Right.
I grabbed the pen he had in his hand and he was looking so lost that I couldn’t ignore him anymore. I signed the papers and slapped them on his face.
“You get what you wanted. I am leaving your life for good, nut not yours for my own self. Do you know what this distance between us will make you realize that how special was our closeness. You always looked down on me and my career as a television actress, and” I said pointing towards his dad and his aunt standing near the couch “that I can’t keep secrets. But, trust me Sir!! If we women fail to keep secrets then any men won’t be able live having their heads high. Your so called family included. But, don’t worry you guys have my word none of your dark secrets would be out in public.” I said leaving them a threat that I am also aware of the skeletons in the closet.
“I wonder if any of it was even true. And you are free to do backbitching about me as, it is only done by people who cannot compete with you. You were the biggest mistake of my life Rohit Sippy, and I am going to amend my mistake. You have a lot of confidence on your money, I will tell you very soon who I am and what I can do.”
With that I left the Sippy Mansion having my head high and a turmoil in my heart. I am breaking and not showing anything to anyone, I left everything for that guy, my career, my name everything and this is what I am getting in return. I didn’t want to go back to my house to my mom and siblings as I don’t want them to stress more and I am dying from inside. So, I decided to call the only one person I know will help me and be with me forever.
My best friend forever, Devansh Kapoor the guy who never lets me fail and fall. If only I had informed him before. He was not in India since last five months and wasn’t able to attend my wedding even but was also available for me. We don’t need the continuous conversation I our friendship. So I called him, and as expected he picked the call with panic evident in his voice for me.
I would be out of here for good and soon. Dr. Rohit Sippy I’ll show you what I can do and cannot, you broke me but not my will. I might have failed in finding the right one to love me but not in finding the right friends. Then suddenly I remembered my younger sister, Pariniti or my little angel Pari as I call her, his brother has broken her heart also.
I guess the complete family has a habit of breaking hearts and playing with the feelings of other people. Rohit’s younger brother Rohan Sippy an entrepreneur he was already married and living his life but the jerk and playboy he is, even after knowing that Pari is my sister and that he is already with someone else he still used my sister made her fall for him and dumped him. Giving her the heartbreak of her life, just as his elder brother gave me. Their entire family called Pari a s**t and w***e, which was completely untrue as she wasn’t even aware about the fact that he was married and I already love his brother. Rohan also promised Pari that he wasn’t in love with his wife Tanya, and was just not breaking the marriage for the sake of family. But, after meeting her he was sure that he needed her and would divorce Tanya very soon. After everything he made her believe that he was so much in love with her and would fight the world for her. But guess what, he is the same as his brother.
But now, I know just one thing to trust my timing. As everyday can’t be a good day but one can face a bad day with a good attitude always. Keeping my head up I wiped away all the tears and waited for another ten minutes till a black Mercedes Benz came and stopped in front of me and the door got opened signaling the start of my new life with me leaving everything that I love my career, my family everything but atleast I would be with a person who wouldn’t use me or leave me in any condition. I know with all my heart that Devansh would stand by me, no matter what as he had did in all these past years through thick and thin. He once helped me get over a very toxic relationship and breakup and now that I have lost hope in love completely I am again going to my only go to person who could help me see a bright light at the end of this dark tunnel like he did last time. With that one thought and trust in Devansh I stepped in the car having a feeling that someone was watching over me but I could care less.
With tears in my eyes I bid goodbye to the city that made me who I am and to the life I thought is perfect for me with the perfect people they seemed.
