Part 7
Shyam held KHushi's hand and started asking her if she was fine. She shoved off her brother's hands wanting some answers on what the past was. Afterall he was responsible for spoiling 4 lives here.
Shyam: Gudiya, did he hurt you?
Khushi: Why.? Why do you wish to know that Bhaiyaa? You already have done enough to spoil my life. Infact not just mine, everyone who is related to you. So Anjali is your Wife.?
Shyam froze. So Arnav told her everything before him.
Shyam: Look Khushi. I can explain what happened.
Khushi shoved his hands off her and moved back
Khushi: Explain what? How you cheated a rich innocent girl and married her secretly? How you made her sign the property papers and when everything was in your control you threw her and her young brother out of their own house Sheesh Mahal? Now I understand why you always hated this man Arnav Singh Raizada. Not because he was your competitor, because he was your wife's brother . And you never wanted to accept that innocent lady back in your life who waited for years to come for a day when she will spend her life with her husband.
She could have told more but Shyam angrily shook her.
Shyam: Yes I did all this. I did this all for you
She slapped him hard on his face without thinking twice. The sound was loud and she didnt care nor repent on it. Shyam touched his paining cheek and looked in her eyes. She was still crying.
Khushi: I preferred to have died than living on the money which you snatched from innocent family. You destroyed everything. And I hate you for that. I hate you Bhai. I hate you.
She wiped her tears and rushed back to her room to compose herself . Shyam couldnt take this hate from his sister. He did everything for her to get a good life. Yes he agreed he never loved Anjali. He only loved her money. But was he wrong? He had equal rights on Anjali's property after he married her and thats why he took everything from her name to his. He wanted to make Khushi understand that he did this not for the greed of his own but for her good life but Anjali blocked his way. She was holding the fruit plate for him. Wearing a light blue saree she was standing before him with a smiling face.
Anjali: Good that I saw you here. I thought you will be off to work. Now come and eat something. You said you dont like Aloo paratha so I cut some fruits for you.
Shyam:I am no more hungry Rani Saheba. Leave me.
Anjali held his hand and started dragging him down.
Anjali: NO. Now that we again have started living like a happily married couple, I want you to listen to your wife and not ignore her demands.
Come.
Shyam faked a smile at her. He wanted to convince his sister first but looked like he will have to wait and give her some time.

Arnav was also eating his paratha's when he saw Khushi coming down again. From her face it looked like she had cried some time back which made her eyes puffy. But did he care? Never. He continued eating and Anjali invited her to sit beside her husband. She was also been teased for not getting proper sleep last night which made her eyes look like that. Khushi could only control her pain and fake smiles whenever Anjali teased her. She didnt know what her next steps should be. But looked like Anjali was really a sweet lady. Nani came there and Khushi leaned and took her blessings.
Nani faked some blessings to her and making a normal face she sat before Arnav to have her breakfast. Khushi thought of serving her but Nani didnt allowed her to do that.
Nani: I will do it myself.
Shyam suddenly frowned seeing this reaction from Nani and Anjali didnt like it too.
Anjali: Nani, she is the bahu of this house. WHen me and Shyam will go from here back to Lucknow, everything Khushi Bhabhi will be doing this for you.
Arnav suddenly became conscious when Anjali planned something like that. Lucknow? How can he leave his sister to Lucknow with this man/
Arnav: Di you are not going anywhere. You and (he hesitated to say this but he still did) jeejaji will be staying with us only.
Anjali: I understand your concern CHotte but .
Shyam: He is right Rani Saheba, I too wish to be a Ghar Jamaai and stay here with all dignity for some time. Afterall I share a Double relation with this house. I am a Damaad and also brother of this house's Bahu.
Anjali chuckled and agreed. She suddenly pressed her forehead in pain .
Anjali: Aahh.
Khushi was the first person to make Anjali sit on the chair and press her head gently.
Khushi: Di whats wrong?
Arnav got up and came there too. He angrily shoved Khushi's hand off his sister and then replaced it by his, He started massaging Anjali's forehead
Arnav: So much of excitement is not good for you Di. You should be resting.
Anjali: Haan,
He made her get up from the chair and took her along with him to her room back. Khushi eyes teared seeing her husband behaving so cold with her. And more importantly he was not even allowing her to build relationships with other family members.
Nani: Shyam, let me warn you one thing. We are not going to allow you take Anjali anywhere. She stays here with us. You know what her medical condition is.
Shyam: I have no intentions to move out either.
He made his point clear and left for his room but Khushi was confused. She could not wait to know what was wrong with ANjali. She asked Nani
Khushi: Is Di having some problem Nani?
Nani: She is suffering from some nervous problems. Since the time your brother decieved her. She gets minor attacks too in between whererin she loses her state of mind and can do anything harmful for her. All thanks to your brother.
Nani left her breakfast unfinshed and left the place while Khushi couldnt digest this fact. So much harm her brother has already done to this family that now nothing can be changed.

Night
The Day was finally over for her and she had no idea what this night would lead into. Even her husband was not back yet and she didnt know if he would even enter her room tonight or leave her alone like the last one. ? She changed into her night salwar and sat before the mirror looking at herself. The Sindoor on her partition and the Mangalsutra on her neck. All this made her realise she was married. But in no sense she could feel this happiness from inside. SHe was only getting hate from everywhere. The only brother she had was also included in making her life miserable now. What should she do? She saw the door opening and Arnav coming inside the room, locking the door from inside.
She got up and turned towards him. Seemed he was little drunk. She didnt look in his eyes directly. She feared of seeing the same anger and hurt in them for her. She moved aside giving him way to get his clothes from the cupboard. He took his clothes and went inside while she kept on thinkin where should she sleep. With him or aloof? What can make him happy?
She waited till he returned back changing his clothes. He was in his Grey T Shirt and Black trousers. She moved back when his eyes fell on her. He placed the towel aside and took predatory steps towards her. That made her stumble at the recliner and she fell on it. Before she could get up on her own, he leaned on her pinning her on that small green recliner and staring dangerously in her eyes.
He smelled her perfume and she closed her eyes unable to bear this sudden close proximity with her husband. He kissed the crook of her neck making her jerk her heaving chest only to hit his front and he snaked his arm behind her to pull her on him. He picked her vertically and made stand on the floor straight. They were not having any conversation , all this was started without any talks and she was nervous what it will lead into. His thumb caressed her cheeks making her breathe abnormally and close her eyes again. She fisted her fingers when he unzipped her pink kurta and slid it off her shoulders. She held it on her chest not allowing it to fall down. He kissed her neck muscles roughly and bite her hard making her scream. Seemed like she never had screamed to this level like tonight. He looked at her face, she was staring in his eyes with confusion. What was all this ?He didnt care for her the whole day and now he was getting close to her ? He was drunk. That was sure. He knew he was growing with every touch of hers and if he doesnt stop this, he was sure to explode today. He saw the bluish red mark on her neck which he just gave her symbolizing she was his and then opened the rubber band of her hair. Her hair hung loose on her shoulders and his breathe was fanning them as he continued kissing her neck. Does he wish to strangle her? Why was he concentrating so much on her neck? Her hands were needing some control and she held his chest, fisting some of his T Shirt material in it supressing the unknown desires that arised due to her husband's assault. He moved her hands off his body as if she was not allowed to touch him yet. Pushing her on bed, he tore her half opened kurta making her skin visible. She was totally afraid seeing this side of his. She tried pulling the duvet on herself but he snatched it from her and threw it down the bed. She moved back in fear and he towards her. She had always seen such situations only in movies but this real life situation looked horrible.
She knew he was her husband and he had all rights on her. But he was acting like an animal. Should she surrender to his desires or not? He leaned over her and she made her decision. She was submitting to him. She tried cupping his face while he didnt leave the eye lock with her. SHe felt when a girl kisses the man first, their married life always works because of this extra initiative. She believed in that and tried to kiss his lips when he immediately pushed her back hard making her fall on the pillow. He got up and picking the duvet from the floor he threw it on her to cover herself
Arnav: Did you expect your husband will get all lovey dovey so soon with you? Did you really think I will listen to your brother's orders and make you happy?
She was stunned. She covered herself and kept looking at him.
Arnav: 8 years Khushi. MY sister suffered for past 8 years because of that man. So you should be getting the same suffer atleast for half of those many years. Know what ? I want your sufferring, your pain, your cries to reach your brother's ears and he should repent for that. He tried to play a BAITon me using my Di and now I will do the same, The More he tries to make you happy, the more he will see you suffering from me. I will torture you double than what he did with my sister. Its a brother's revenge to another brother.
He didnt allow her to speak anything nor did he wait to see her face. He left the room and her once again this night making her cry bitterly for landing into this relationship which had no meaning.

Next Day
She took his Tie out of the Closet and placed it on the bed as she knew he will never pick it from her hands. He was at the Poolside checking some papers of the file when his Phone rang. Just like every wife would do, she answered the call finding her husband busy enough but before she could say a Hello, she heard his Personal assitant voice
PA: Sir, I have arranged a Call girl in Room No 803 of Hotel Sky Heights tonight. She will be there before you reach.
Her eyes welled up taking this message for her husband. The call was cut from the PA's end and Arnav walked inside. He saw her mood suddenly changed and his phone was still in her hands.
Arnav: Dont pick my calls henceforth. I wont repeat that again.
He picked the tie and started putting it On. She placed his phone back on bed and then turned to leave . She stopped at the door but didnt turn back
Khushi: It was your PA's call. He said the Call girl is arrnaged and will be waiting for you in Room no 803 of Hotel Sky Heights.
Arnav hands stopped doing their actions as he saw her walking away from him and then out of their room.
