His Ex Wife - Misunderstandings Create Voids

Chapter 2

Ananya's POV

I was laying on my bed staring at the ceiling trying to analyse my current life situation. I miss Arjun so much, but my self-respect won't allow me to even look at him now.

The door of my room burst open and I immediately got up as a reflex to find Jay standing at the threshold of my room with a swollen cheek and a bruised eye

"Jay who did this to you?" I asked him with worry and concern laid in my voice

"Your husband. Did my makeover." he answered in a cold tone which can scare anyone

"Ex-husband Jay." I corrected him

"What? What do you mean by ex-husband Ananya?"

"He divorced me last night Jay." I answered in a monotone voice clearly showing that I'm not at all interested in discussing that topic

"When were you going to tell me about it?"

"Jay stop don't pressurize her. She needs to rest a lot." Jenny said walking inside my room with some towels in her hand

"No Jenny he has the right to know." I said

"I'm waiting to know everything Ananya, and dare you leave any detail." Jay said while taping her foot

I narrated him all the happenings from last night, he patiently listened to everything, I also told him that I'm pregnant with Arjun's child.

"So, what are you going to do now Ananya?" Jay asked me

"I'm planning on leaving Mumbai and going somewhere else, because this place has all the memories I created with Arjun, and they'd haunt me forever." I said my tears ready to fall again

"I'm going to come with you." Jenny said

"No, I want to go alone Jenny." I said

"No, I'm coming with you and that's final." Jenny said being stubborn

I just shook my head at her stubbornness, but it was sure that I won't take her with me, she had everyone over here and if she went with, she'll lose everyone like Arjun did when he married me

"So where are you planning to go? Goa?" he joked

"I don't know yet." I said my shoulders slumping a bit because of being exhausted emotionally

"By the way Jay what was Arjun doing at your place?" Jenny questioned him

"He showed up at my place at around 2 in the morning asking me where Ananya was. I told him she was not here. He didn't believe me and started fighting with me and when he passed out, I locked him up in my room and started calling Ananya, but you weren't answering and after some time it was switched off. So, I came here to check upon you?"

It was strange that he was looking out for me after he himself kicked me out last night and he drank, My Arjun never drinks.

"What a jerk he is? After kicking you out, divorcing you, he is looking for you?" Jenny scoffed

"Leave it Jenny I don't want to talk about him. It's giving me a headache to even think about him." I said while rubbing my head with my fingers

"Are you okay Ananya? "Jay asked me with worry and concern laced in his voice

"I'm Jay I've to be." I said with a small smile on my face and my hand caressing my belly

"So, what should I do with Arjun?" Jay asked me

"Throw him out of your home." Jenny said and I gave her a look of disbelieve

"Okay fine I'll turn him out once he is sober enough."

Jay's phone rang and he immediately picked it up

"Yes Mom."

"I'm with Ananya."

"Oh no. You and Arush stay in your room and lock the door I'm coming okay."

"I'm on my way. Yeah. Bye." he hung up and his face was tensed

"What's wrong Jay?" I couldn't help but ask

"It's Arjun he has woken up now and is destroying my room Mom and Arush are really scared. I need to go right now, but I'll come in the evening. Okay?"

"Okay." he left after saying bye to Jenny and giving me a hug

"Ananya come on and sit outside you can't lock yourself up inside this room."

Jenny said and tugged me out of my room and kept dragging me till we reached the garden where I saw the kids playing over there, I was one of them a few years ago, I smiled at them and started playing with them.

I forgot all my worries and apprehensions when I was with them. Kids can bring a smile on anyone's face at any point of time, whatever the situation you are in or how tensed you are a kid can always make you smile.

Soon it was time for dinner, I helped the kids in getting fresh and had a wash myself.

We all gathered in the dining room and started having our dinner after saying the prayers, the kids were talking with me making animated hand gestures trying to act like the person whom they were talking about. I just smiled at them and laughed along.

Finishing our dinner, I helped Jenny in tucking all the little munchkins to bed as it was already quite late. When I was in my room, I took out my cell phone and booked a ticket for the place I want to go. I booked the ticket for the night of day after tomorrow.

I quickly kept a few necessities in my duffel bag and hid it in the backside of my cupboard, so that Jenny won't question me about it if she sees it by any chance.

I laid on the bed thinking what happened in my life and what is there in store for me for future. I hope it's not as difficult as it's now.

"Good Night Little one. Mommy loves you." I spoke to my baby and drifted off into a much-needed slumber

Arjun's POV

I can't believe I tied the knot with that slut. 

Natasha and Dad were right she is literally a gold-digging manipulating slut.

I never liked drinking alcohol but last night it was the only thing in which I could drown my sorrows and try to forget about everything.

Whenever I took a sip of it burned my throat, but the sensation of numbness was majestic. I was just loving it. It made me forget everything.

It was three in the morning when I went to that bastard Jay's house. I was shocked a little to not find Ananya there.

Anyway, when I remembered those pictures, I started beating him, I was thankful to Dad for enrolling me in Martial Arts class they were coming in handy now.

I passed out while beating him and he threw me out of his house when I woke up.

Now I'm at home sitting on the couch trying to tend my wounds which that bastard gave me. I don't know why but I'm missing Ananya's presence. I loved her with my whole heart, but she back stabbed me by sleeping with that bastard Jay.

I should have known that they have a thing for each other I had come in between them so now I need to suffer.

I snickered and went to take a shower.

Coming out I decided to hit the bar, because I didn't have any alcohol left in the house because I drank around four bottles last night.

But I need more to forget about that b***h Ananya.

I sat in my car and drove it towards The Rock Club it was quite far away from the city and was rarely crowded, with people.

All the way I could think how me and Ananya used to cross this road when we went for long drives. I shook my head at those memories and focused on driving, increasing my speed.

On reaching the club I passed the keys to the valet and signalled him to park my car.

I went inside and sat on the table and ordered the bartender to get me a bottle of whiskey, he got me a bottle and I started drinking from it.

 I finished one, two, three, four bottles, but I still felt that ache in my heart and what worst was that it kept increasing with every sip that I took.

I wish I could just forget you Ananya. I wish I could forget you.
