Everything was back to normal.People pretended as if nothing happened.Abhijit was sent to hospital.Sanobar saw everything and she was a bit scared though she has seen much worse.
The dancers were dancing and serving drinks.Some were touching the rich men lustfully.She saw how those women were trying to approach her husband but one glare from him and no one dared to approach him.Everything was fine but presence of one woman bothered her a lot...the journalist Devika Saxena.She knows her husband was physically involved with her but that's not what bothers her.The thing that bothers her is Devika's care and concern for her husband.Digvijay has been open to Sana about his physical relationships with Devika and Kanchan.Its not something she justifies but he tries to hurt her for what her family did.She knows her family gets to know everything that happens to her.He is taking revenge from them by hurting their ego.
I and Digvijay were to be divorced after one year of marriage but he did not leave me and even went against his family.I know now he is not involved with her or Kanchan and I am not concerned about Kanchan.She is my chachu Zaroon Sheikh's illegitimate daughter who tells all the information about her father to Digvijay.I know he does it to hurt my family's ego.Devika is a famous news anchor and a powerful journalist who always shows Rathore's in a good light.Though now Digvijay is not in relationship with any woman,Devika always takes care of him like she is his wife.I have seen the hate in her eyes for me when I met her at a fashion show held in Jaipur.The jealousy and hate in her eyes were so evident when Adi held my hand that day.At that time our marriage was not revealed to the world but Devika knew about it.
I can still see her looking at my husband.She was going to get married to a pilot but she broke the marriage.Digvijay had broken up with her much longer before her relationship started with that pilot.They still work together with each other but it's all professional.It bothers me I become restless.Such a messed up relationship I have with my husband.He tricked me to get revenge I fell in his love.After marriage I came to know he hates me and I wanted to run away from his tortures.But I don't know when I got habitual of his rough ways.Still I loved him it's so messed up.I ran away so many times but he caught me again and again.I don't know when but I became so dependent on him for each and everything that now when I think about leaving him I don't know where I will go.I don't know why I still love this man I don't want to stay with him I want to run but I also want to stay with him.He ruins my peace but he only gives me peace.I know he will not leave me.In four years of marriage I must have tried to escape more than twenty times but failed miserably everytime.I know now he is not in relationship with any woman other than me but it still hurts when he was involved with other woman before.
No one is here to save me.I can't even talk to people because of my insecurities then what do I think of running and surviving.
My trance broke when mummy came inside.
"How are you feeling beta?"
"It's all good mummy"
"Why are you sad?"
"Nothing I am just feeling bored"
"That's why I am here...let's have dinner together we ll try to leave as early as possible but these men are busy in drinking and chatting"
"Hmm....why are you leaving tomorrow?"
"Its fiftieth inaugration day of our NGO I have to be there"
"Yeah I ll miss you maa"
"Oo god you are always so emotional your mother is always there for you...now have dinner don't be senti"
Sama ate a little.She was not feeling good.
"Where is my purse?Oo God I forgot it in the washroom "
"I ll go and bring it."
"No no I ll send the guards."
"There's no problem I was going to washroom only I ll bring it "
"Okay come fast"
Sana left two bodyguards were following her.She entered the washroom and saw Mriganka's purse.She went and did her business.While she was setting up her make up...Devika came out of the washroom...their eyes met each other but Sana ignored her and started setting up her make up again.
"The princess is here...lovely to see you Sana"
Sana just smiled and said "It's Mrs.Rathore for you"
She was leaving when Devika jerked Sana and said "Listen you miss slutty cheater...after fucking with more than half the men and being a proven cheater you are telling me to address you as Mrs.Rathore.And what is this drama of not coming in public and wearing this hijab and all you are not at all religious.What's up with this facade ? "
Sana was hurt...she heard it again a comment of being a cheater.Yes she was.She did not say anything because she knew she will not be able to justify herself.She just wanted to leave this place.
Sana started to move again but Devika pulled her "listen Ms.Sana after fucking my fiance behind my back...and breaking my marriage you married and got settled and what did I get in return?"
Sana was confused with her accusation.
"Devika what are you saying I cannot understand"
"Yes ofcourse you can't.I was going to marry Yash Goyal but you trapped him and he was with you.He left me for you."
"What!!!?? you were going to marry Yash...seriously Devika I didn't know this.Yash came to me I did not approached him "
"Ooo shut up you know what...I feel really good after your husband comes to me every night when you are not able to satisfy him...I ll steal your man like you stole mine"
The words that Digvijay still goes to Devika were ringing in her head but she composed herself and said
"Devika I am sorry for whatever happened and I don't want to carry any burden of animosity between both of us"
"No Sana no I will take my revenge I ll steal your man."
"The stage is all yours.I am out of this game of Stealing and taking revenge if you can steal my man go ahead."
Devika was amazed and irritated by her reply.
"Your over confidence is not good.You are not beautiful anymore you have lost your charm he is bored with your body."
"This is how a housewife looks like and I don't need to maintain my figure to keep my marriage.You need to maintain yourself to get in the eyes of all the rich men not me."
Sana's reply infuriated Devika.
"Ma'am are you alright?"came the voice from outside of the guard.
"Yes I am fine...let me go otherwise they ll strangle you to death for disrespecting me"
Sana moved out of the washroom but Devika said something which broke her "A WOMAN WITHOUT A WOMB"
This remark broke Sana from inside but she ignored it and moved ahead but the next words of Devika infuriated her.
"A FAMILY FULL OF WHORES AND MEN WITHOUT DICK.WHO IS YOUR YOUR SISTER IN LAW'S(Aarya)INSPIRATION YOU??"
Sana can take anything but not the disrespect of her family.She turned around and slapped Devika really hard.
"YOU GOT YOUR ANSWER"
Devika was angry at her she wanted to do so many things to her but she knew the guards are standing outside and she will not be able to do anything right now.
"No problem Mrs.Cheater Rathore wait and watch what I ll do today"
Sana immediately went inside the chamber and huffed.She tried to calm down the storms raising in her mind.She confidently managed the situation but those words were enough to break her from inside.
She sat beside Mriganka.Mriganka noticed her pale face.
"Sana what happened?"
"Uh nothing mummy can we leave now?"
Mriganka noticed Sana's cracked voice.
"Yes in ten minutes but now will you tell me what happened?"
"Nothing happened mummy"
Mriganka just nodded her head she knew something is off but she did not ask her again.
Mriganka left the chamber to bid adieu everyone.Sana was sitting all alone when she noticed Devika getting close to Digvijay and touching him.Digvijay was talking to a bunch of people in a circle and Devika was standing beside him.She was talking to him and trying to get close to him by touching his shoulders and keeping her hands on his shoulders while talking to him.Digvijay too noticed this and excused himself from there.He was going to the walking area when his best friend and business tycoon Rudraksh Rana entered the party.She knows Rudraksh and his wife Kavya.They are best friends Rudraksh was not in India since many days but he came today.They fisted their hands and went to the bar area.They were chatting when Devika went to Digvijay and gave him a drink.
Digvijay's POV-
"Thanks Devika but I did not ask you for a drink."
I ignored her I hate when this woman tries to deliberately get close to me.
I started talking to Rudraksh.
"Saale kaha tha tu"(where where you moron)
She again kept her hand on my shoulders and started moving it sensually and whispered in my ears "I am free tonight take me as you want"
I grabbed her hands "if you don't want me to kill you right here right now just leave "
She left I could see a smirk plastered on her face.
"Main aa gya tu bataa tera kya scene chal raha hai lawde"(I am back but what is going on here asshole)he pointed towards Devika.
"It's just business she is trying to get in my pants"
"That I can see but why is Mr.Rathore rejecting her"
"It's over Rudra I have got to see my wife I can't make her insecure with my stupidity"
"Who knocked sense in your head"
"Time teaches you everything this will not lead me anywhere I understood it I can't hurt Sana anymore"
"How is she?"
"She is here in the party and doing fine"
"Zaroon Sheikh is going to do something big he will not sit silent after the massacre you did"
"I am ready "
"Sources say Khanna's son is supporting Sheikh's"
"He will die like his father"
We were chatting and bid adieu to each other after sometime.We left the party.
Sana did not wanted to meet anyone so she sat in the car.She was looking very low.I thought to come back and talk to her.
I had to go in front of the media for few pictures with Mr.Singhaniya.I don't like to come in front of the media.But Rathore's have really good relations with Singhaniya's so we have to show it in the media as well.
I was talking to the reporters but one of them asked "Why did Sana slap the journalist Devika?Is she afraid to answer media's questions and if she is can she slap someone".I was clueless of what she was asking about"You are heavily mistaken and this interaction is for business talks not for your mirch masala(gossips)".My bodyguard came to me and said sir there is a video going viral of Sana mam.I got a bit tensed after hearing this.
"Sir is Sana not able to digest the truth? "
"Is your marriage on rocks?"
"Did your wife cheat on you?"
"Your wife slapped a woman when the woman confronted Sana for cheating on her with her fiance."
I was enraged how can they talk such shit about my woman I slapped the journalist in rage "Paid motherfucker "
Samrat held me back.
My bodyguards immediately ceased the entire place the cameras and phones of all the journalists were snatched and the footages were deleted from it.
"Make sure these reporters don't get job anywhere and the licencse of media agencies they work in should be cancelled."
Farhad was calling me continuously .I picked up his call.
"It better be something important Farhad or I ll kill you"
"Bhaii it's urgent...check a video that I have sent you on Funstagram"
"What"
"Bhai it's related to bhabhi"
I immediately watched the video.It was a video of Sana slapping Devika.The title said "The unruly behaviour of Sanobar Rathore...vote wisely this year"
The video went viral.It was uploaded twenty minutes before by a small paparazzi media channel.It got 500K views as it was Sana's video.
People were bashing Sana for her behaviour.But I saw people were even bashing our family too for the same.
I knew who did all this.Devikaaa
"Farhad take down the video now"
"Bhaii I have already done it but some other pages have also uploaded the video.All the videos will be taken down ."
"Do it right away"
I immediately left and went where Sana was.She was sitting in the car.
I can't even scold her she is too delicate for facing this now.Papa must be angry.
"Adi shall we go ?" Came her voice.I looked at her she looked pale.
"Sana I have some work.We will not go home today let's stay in our nearby flat tonight."
"But we can reach home and our clothes are at home you should have informed me.Mummy papa will leave tomorrow in the morning"
"Sana I have to go somewhere can't you understand.Do as I say" he said to her frustrated.
"Okay" she said meekily.
He did not say anything to her during the drive and dropped her making sure the security is tight.
"Cut the TV connection of my flat"
I left immediately from there and reached mansion.The media was standing outside.
The bodyguards cleared the way for car to enter the gate.
Inside the mansion a whole new scenario was buzzing.
As I reached inside doctors were coming out of the room.
I got a bit alert."what happened doctor"
"Sir Aarya ma'am is fine she just got a panick attack now she is okay."
I ran towards Aarya's room.Everyone was standing there.Aarya was lying unconscious on the bed.
"Papa what happened to her?"
"She is alright but what about you?How many times have I told you to keep your wife under control? Where is she?"
"Dad she is not here "
"I can see that but call her here I want to talk to her"
"Dad she is not in the mansion"
"Where is she?"
"She is in another flat...I don't want her to face the media chaos and moreover I don't want her to know anything that happened today."
"Joru ka Ghulam(wife's servant?) clear all the mess and I have already warned you before none of the women of my family should be in the bad light of the media and Sana's name is already at the top list...But it's not her fault it's your fault you are not able to guide your wife what to do and what not..."
"Papa we don't even know what's the the matter...it's just a video where Devika triggered her by some past incidents"
"Dont fool me always...keep other women away from your wife.She is not your woman SANA is.Was it not your responsibility to make sure they don't encounter each other.It is out of jealousy she did this but who's name I
is at the receiving end of trolls.Do you don't know or do I don't know or is your wife not aware of what relations you had with that woman...Your wife carries the name of Rathore not that other woman...your wife's image and reputation is of utmost importance for us"
Farhad's call interrupted the conversation "hello"
"Bhai all the videos have been taken down and all the media channels have been payed well to shut their mouth.The PR has started its work don't worry the situation is under control"
"Mumma there is someone mumma don't leave me mumma stay or take me with you I dont want to be here mumma please there is someone"
She was crying so hysterically as if she will die.
I was tensed after looking at her condition.We never saw her like this.Samrat hugged her immediately and started patting her head "bacha there is no one there is no one except us your family see "
She said to mom "they are here mumma "
"No no no one is here"mumny said
Who is she referring to.By Samrat's expression one thing that he is even unaware of the situation.She is hiding something from us.And who dared to come inside her room.
I have never seen my sister crying so profusely.Her cry was different it felt like someone has died and she is mourning his death.After sometime she was not even crying but her face was blank.Her dry lips,emotionless eyes,blank face told me a different story.What was the reason behind my sister's depression?I learned she has recovered from her depression but I saw something else today.
I saw papa he was not alright.I know the same questions are running in bhai and papa's mind too.
I came out of the room I know she is not comfortable with us and I cannot see my sister in this condition but I will surely find out the reason.
I have to find out who came in her room and what is the reason behind her depression?
Sana's POV-
I feel something is off.He never leaves me anywhere other than mansion.Has he gone to Devika again but he never lies to me.He told me he has ended everything with her but has he gone to her?
I know I am not that beautiful anymore my beauty has faded away with time the charm used to have before is gone..I know I am not upto his standards now but will be leave me for her.No no he came back to me he did not give me divorce though at that time I ran also once half mindedly at Dadi's order but he caught me.He will not leave me right or is he still taking revenge from me.Do I deserve to be with him I am such a bad person I don't deserve him.I better die.Its better if I die....Sana just a cut on your wrist or I can jump from the terrace.The maid has slept guards are standing outside I can go to terrace...I ll jump.She went to terrace....it took me time to build courage to stand on the wall of terrace...I am scared I can't I can't die...but for what should I live for my family who wants to kill me for a family who doesn't wants to accept me for a husband who I don't know loves me or hates me or for the past guilts that I have committed.What respect do I have in eyes of people no one will even look at me with respect if Adi would have not married me.What do I have of my own?I am a burden on him he keeps me caged he keeps me locked because even he is not able to trust me completely.
My one leg in air and the other still on the wall of terrace but I was determined to end this life of pain misery and shame.
Aarya's POV:-
"Aarya beta who was there?Tell me"asked papa.
I didn't reply because I can't.
Why am I so weak? No I can't be weak I can't be...no one is present Aarya.They are not here.They will not hurt me.Aarya be strong don't lose yourself otherwise dad will never accept me as his daughter atleast for now he regards me as his daughter.Aarya don't lose your grip be strong.
"Aarya beta where did you see that person?"
How do I tell him I don't know whether I saw a nightmare or someone was actually present.
Sanjana's POV:-
Thank god we reached the mansion on time.Aarya was getting panick attacks she was saying don't come near me don't touch me.Ranvijay held her but she got unconscious.From the time he has seen all this his mind is in chaos.Its the first time he has seen this but I have seen her in this condition before as well.It's just that we were never allowed to tell about this to anyone otherwise I would have told him before.She always got panick attacks in Jaipur.She was always in her room so everytime she used to get these attack dadi and bua used to hide it.But I don't know the reason for mom's silence I was never allowed to interfere in this matter.I don't know everything but I know that Aarya was bullied in her school for being an illegitimate child and someone did wrong to her.She always avoids the question on these topics so I never ask her.Because firstly I always get very limited to spend with her and secondly she becomes so low whenever I try to initiate this conversation so I don't I just let her be.
