" Why did she run away ? I saw fingerprints on her neck. . Did You hurt her..? She was scared by you more , not by us.."
Vikash didn't dare to meet gaze with his father. He was shivering from fear. If his father knew what he did in his anger and frustration then the consequences would be more bigger then than.
" Ashok .. Go and take her back. And be gentle, she is still your sister-in-law." Then he turned and pointed his index finger to Vikash and asked " Manit Vidisha… What did he do with her ? "
With lowered head , he secretly saw everyone. Who was still in the hall area. Some servants and Vincy , Naina, Manit and Vidisha. He felt ashamed and scared too. Because he knew his father's anger very well.
(( It is the sign of good parenting. Your children reached any level of success, still they respect you and are scared to hurt you even by mistake. They never get courage to let you down. It's your luck which heavens blessed you and hard work which you spent on your children. ))
Feeling his angry gaze, those servants became panicked and tried to leave the hall area. But before They moved more they all stopped by Nair sir ' s voice " without my permission no one is allowed to leave. Stay here.."
Vikash gulped his position. He knew after a long time that it meant almost 20 years after his father became angry like this.
" Pappa… You.. I mean I … sorry. ..I don't . " he was scared and panicked , he didnot get proper words to evaluate the situation. Finally he gether courage and said " Her parents cheated me. They gave me fake report of her pre pregnancy and now she I'd pregnant. I told Madhu's parents that she can't be pregnant so they will not ask Aska's custody if they.…. So I just forced her to do abortion. I will…" another slap fell on his different side face.
" what you said..what you did with her." This time his mother interrupted and slapped him . He gulped his saliva to control his anger. If there was someone else who dared to humiliate him in front of everyone he would surely distroyed that person mercilessly. But for his parents ; he can't do anything with them.
" What happened here in our absence.. Is anybody here who knows the matter?" Now Vikash's parents knew it's useless to ask him again.. So they divert their questions to servants and Manit and Vidisha.
Leela came forward and said " In the evening , Sandhya madam shifted to servant quarters. She asked me for keys and I handed it over. " Leela also was aware that now Vikash will vent his anger on her husband because he was his driver. But what these all people did with that poor girl . she couldn't able more herself to hide the actual situation.
Hearing this they all were shocked. Vikash raised his head and saw his parents. . " She is just like her greedy parents. . I will not chase her again and you all should do the same.. if she wants to live with servants then it's her choice. Her parents fooled me by that fake report and now she is showing tantrums. ."
He also knew something was messed up on his parents' New Zealand trip. Sannu 's parents never demanded money. And he was also aware of all bank transactions.
They sold out their only house and transferred all money to Sandhya's bank account. And her father took volunteers retirement and took those money with him.
He also knew his parents called him a few days before and asked some money and he immediately transferred it without raising a single question.
With rubbing his both hands to his two swollen cheeks he said " because of that i***t girl I will not give up on my daughter. So she has to do what I said. I will take her tomorrow for Operation. "
His action was childish but his voice was affirmative and stubborn.
" that report ... ? I asked Ashok to make that fake report. Remember Vikash, her parents did not give it to you .. I... I was coming with that report and handed it over to you.. Why do you blame them."
Asha told the truth but she was too late to handle the situation and revealed the truth. STILL THERE WAS A BIG MESS SHE WAS HIDING..AND VIKASH INDIRECTLY FORCE THEM TO REVEAL THE TRUTH.
" Mummy why you took other people 's sins on your head.. we all know they are all poor and for money they can do anything. So what Vikash brother said I will support him ." She was Naina who came forward and supported Vikash .
Vidisha was stunned by her words. How could she say this. She also blames Sandhya and her parents. Put blindly trust on matters which she also was not aware of perfectly.
Manit bent her head to Vidisha 's ear and whispered " do what Naina did.. Otherwise your brother will throw us to my parents house and then. . "
It's clearly threatened by Manit. He is very well aware of his wife's big fright and nightmare. She also faced this kind of situation in his house after their marriage.
She complained to Vikash and then Vikash asked Manit to stay with Nair family. He was also easily convinced.
With a trembling voice Vidisha also gave her support to her brother "Mummy Naina is right and .. and I will also do the same what my big brother will say.. If my brother says we will not accept Sandhya then I will do the same. My brother never said a lie. That family is greedy. And I think Sandhya also.. "
Mr.V.K.Nair was shocked by those two women 's words. Asha is also stunned for the moment. She wanted to explain the past situation but suddenly her husband left the hall with a disguised look.
And at the same time Ashok also came with Sandhya's unconscious body… they all saw him scared and anxious..
He laid her unconscious body on the sofa and then rushed to his room for his medical kit.
" Sandhya. . Sandhya. . Please wake up.. sorry… I didn't know that you were pregnant. . Sandhya sorry my child . Please wake up.. see all are here , I apologise you my child , please. . " Asha was exclaiming this with a sobbing voice..
But Sandhya , she was in her nightmare . Where she was running with a great fear. She was screaming in pain and all the people who stood nearby , pretended that she was nothing but an air for them . Suddenly they all started laughing on her poor condition and the next second they stepped towards her with stones.
Before she could resist or scream for help she felt a sharp but light pain in her body and they all disappeared from her eyesight.
She sighed and felt relaxed; they all were gone . Then She forgot her pain and slept peacefully there.
" Mummy, she didn't eat anything. And her blood pressure is also low.. She needs proper rest." Ashok examined her and informed her condition to his mummy.
" take her to the guest room. I am going to make some food for her. " She said and about to step into the kitchen.
"No need to help her. If any of you help her then there is no relation between me and that person. If mummy papa wants to help her I will not stop them. But you all , not allow.. " Vikash threatened them with a dominant voice and left the hall.
Ashok was stupefied by his words. He didn't know what happened in his absence when he rushed outside to find Sandhya. For him Sandhya and Vikash were the best couple. But it is past now and the situation has changed.
Naina came forward and held his hand " Come with me.. We need to talk."
"Are you crazy. .?" he snorted on Naina with a disguised look.
Naina was scared by his gaze. Manit came forward and handled the situation. " Hey Ashok. .please it's not her fault. Leave Sandhya here. otherwise you know your big brother very well. Come on she chose this life. We can't do anything for her. "
One by one all left the hall, just Sandhya, who was sleeping on sofa and her mother-in-law was there. Ashok also left after hearing Manit ' s words.
Asha boiled milk and poured it into the glass. She sat on the floor near Sofa on which sandhya was sleeping peacefully.
" Sandhya sorry. .. If I knew about your pregnancy then. .. Sorry. . You must be scared. . Will hate us.. Sorry for everything. . Sorry for your parents…. Yes they both never sold you.. They both… Sorry.. Sorry… I. .. I just tried to save my Ashok and made this mistake. No its sin.. what I did ; what my Ashok did ; both were sins.. Heavens will never show mercy when they teach lessons to my family.. I know this .. I know… "
