His Replaced Bride

Part 2. Stranger Husband

Samaira was standing there still, for a moment, she heard the engine of a car and run to the window and saw her cousin sitting with a boy and rode off without even looking back.

"Di....di.....please stop..." She yelled but she couldn't do anything. She has no idea what to do. She was just afraid now. She clutches the certain tightly to control her inner self.

"I have to tell uncle and Aunty, ....yes,...I should.." She turned to go and found them already there with a confused look on there face, seeing her pale face.

"Where is Dhriti?" Damini asked roaming her eyes around the room, found her wedding dress on the bed, messed up the room with no presence of her daughter.

Her uncle Ishwar Singh widen his eyes on realising the situation. He looked towards his wife, who also has a horrified expression on her face.

"This can't be happening....." In trembling voice, her uncle Ishwar said, his balance shook and about to fall but Samaira and his wife holds him and made his sit on a nearby couch.

His heart was beating fast. His face turned pale and his body turned cold.

"Uncle please relax, everything will be fine. Please have some water..." Samaira said blinking her tears away. She has always seen him like a strong man who stands for her always again his family.

"Her number is switch off.." Her Aunt said who was trying Dhriti's number. She was also crying.

Of course, she has switched off her mobile, So no one can contact her.

Her eyes brimmed with fresh tears watching them vulnerable like this.

"Why you did this??? Di???" She said in her mind.

"Why did you leave her alone?? I told you to be with her?? You useless girl..." She yelled at her.

Samaira looked at her with unknown expression, how's it my fault. But she thought to keep quiet as it's not the time for this.

"What will I say to them???

How will I face the society???" God?..." Ishwar whispered in low voice. His eyes brimmed with tears. He has always tried to maintain a good reputation in society, he always worked hard, whatever he has, he was fine with that.

When Rajvansh asked her daughter's hand, he was so happy. He thought, he didn't earn a lot of money but he has earned respect but now it would be gone too.

"Maybe we can talk to them. We will apologise, but you have to take care of yourself first. It may affect your health uncle" Samaira said with concern. He is a heart patient. He is not allowed to get more mental stress.

"My own daughter didn't think about me once before doing this, here you are trying to support me." He said to her.

Damini was walking here and there, trying to come up with some excuse or idea to cover up this situation. She has to do something before anyone could know about it.

"Why can't we get her to marry today" Her Aunt dropped a bomb at her suddenly. She didn't know what to say, it took some time to get her words.

Ishwar looks at his wife strangely.

"Are you out of your mind?" He hissed to her.

"You are not getting me. If today there will be no wedding happen then we both know what will happen???" She said to him trying to clear her point.

"Whatever happens, I'll face that myself, but I won't do this to this innocent girl." He yelled at her standing up. He starts coughing keeping his hand on his chest.

Samaira got scared and holds him.

"Uncle please, sit out. Don't stress yourself." She said and looked towards her Aunt, "why she is doing this??"

"She is also your daughter right?? Can't your daughter do this one thing for us??? For years we have taken care of her, we did everything......" Before she could finish Ishwar yelled at her again.

"Enough....stop your nonsense or you'll see worse of me. " He said. His chest starts to ache now. His face turned covered with sweat now.

"Aunty...what are you saying???

How it will be possible?? I'm not the bride." Samaira said with her trembling lips.

Today again she has become the reason for their problem. Why it has been her always?

"You Shut up, Ungrateful girl. I told you to be with Dhriti. If you had listened to me then this would never have happened." Damini said in an angry tone.

Samaira clutches the side of her dress. She looked down. She doesn't know what to do.

"Is this really my fault??" She looked down.

"This is the time you can repay our favour. I will talk to them.

I will handle everything. And this is a good family, we all know this. "

"If I would have another daughter than I would get her to marry without even asking her. Can't you do this???" She said to Samaira. She trying to manipulate her.

"She will be happy there. Think about it" she said looking at her husband.

Her constantly talks forces Ishwar to think about it. He looked towards Samaira with guilt and hopeful eyes.

That time Samaira didn't know anything, She just knew that this family has always done everything to her. Her uncle always supported her. If it was not her uncle than she must have ended up on some street or orphanage.

They are her only family.

And you are supposed to do anything for your family. Right?

"Samaira, beta....I.." Her uncle hesitate. He knows he being selfish here. But he has no other option.

"I'll marry him," she said before he could request her. She doesn't want him to request her.

After some hours

Samaira was sitting on the very cosy comfortable bed with her head low in someone else's wedding dress. Her face was still covered with a veil from the starting of the wedding.

Now she is here at someone else's place. A few hours before, she got married to someone who was supposed to be her cousin's husband but now he is her husband.

Her husband Abhimaan Rajvansh, yes...she knew his name only. She knows nothing about him or his family. Just that they are wealthy and powerful. And they can ruin her family anytime.

She is nervous, scared and alone. How they will react to seeing her??

How will her Husband react on realising he got cheated?

She has become someone's replacement.

She never dreamed to get married like this.

"Mumma...Papa....please help me." A sob escaped from her mouth. She is alone. Her Aunt said she will handle everything. She will come tomorrow and state the truth to everyone.

She just wanted this to get over as soon as possible.

"I want the presentation to be held tomorrow, and make sure everything will be ready as I said." Abhimaan Rajvansh said over the phone to his secretary.

"What???" Is there any problem??" He said in anger. He doesn't like to repeat himself. Already he has wasted a lot of time in this marriage. He has to get back to his work soon.

He was sitting in his study room working on his next meeting. He got married a few hours before. He was supposed to be with his wife but he has no interest in all this.

He never wanted to marry like this. Arrange marriage without knowing the girl, he knows the girl's name and once has seen her picture also.

One day suddenly his Granddad called and announced his marriage. It was not forced on him but he couldn't say no to him, as he always wanted his wife from their hometown.

He never had any serious relationship except one. He was an arrogant playboy in everyone's eye. Maybe that was the reason his family wanted him to get married soon.

He was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't realize his parents were standing in front of him.

"Mom Dad..what are you doing here?" He said getting up.

"That's should be our question. You should be with your newly wedded wife, son" His mother said with a warm smile on the face. Seeing that smile, he can say his mother is happy.

A smile broke on his lips also. If this marriage can make his family happy then he can try. May be!!

He is a good son. He can do anything to his family.

"This needs to finish, Mom" He replied indicating his open files and stuff.

His parents chuckled on watching their grown-up son, who is now a married man.

"We are very proud of you. You are my sweetest boy." His Mom, Arunima Rajvansh said ruffling his well-jelled hair. On which he just smiled, only his Mom can do this. This arrogant billionaire is still a momma's boy.

"Now go, your wife Dhriti must be waiting for you." His father, Gautham said.

"Yeah....you go. I just covered it up." He said. They nodded and left.

He sat there quietly for some time. Thinking about his new life now. He rubbed his face and got up to meet his wife.

Time to settle things.
