********************
The entire Oberoi family, along with Tia, stood in the living room, shocked at the happenings in front of them. Shivaay and Anika were at it again, but this time it was a full on fight with sweat and tears, tears from Anika because what she was doing pained her and beads of sweat from Shivaay from having to argue with his wife who seemed hell bent on going away. Everyone had doing their own things when they heard Shivaay shouting Anika's name, having rushed to the living room, they all saw that Anika was trying to leave and Shivaay was holding her back. They all knew it was pointless intervening because this wasn't their fight, it was Shivaay and Anika's, and for once even Dadi just stood there quietly.
"I can't be here anymore, I feel suffocated by just being in the same room as you. I want to leave this house" Anika told Shivaay in a cold tone, but her red eyes showed her pain. It hurt to say those words, but she had to do this. She couldn't be selfish this time. She had to go and this wasn't only about her anymore, she had someone else to take care of now. "I'm so tired of being everyone's punching bag. It's either you and your mother or Tia and her mother. When I help make things right it's my fault, when things go wrong it's my fault.There's only so much I can take. And I think I've reached my limit now. This entire family is psychotic. I cannot live here with you and your family anymore" She spat out, her voice loud and heavy with unshed tears. I'm sorry Shivaay, I know I'm hurting you, but I need to go. You will hate me if you find out. I will not handle you hating me.
Pulling against his grip one more time, she finally succeeded in freeing herself. She picked his hand up, placed her mungalsutra on it and turned around walking towards the front door. "If you leave, Anika, I will just find you and bring you back. You are well aware of what I can do. Or do I need to remind you?" Shivaay told her in a low deadly voice exactly like the one he had used when he had forced her to marry him. Gripping onto the necklace in his hand, he waited for Anika to turn around. This women will turn me into a murderer, I swear. It's like she wants to push all my buttons. First she ignores me for weeks on end and now she wants to leave me. She thinks I'll let her go? Not a chance in hell.
But his words and tone didn't have the desired effect because she started moving towards the exit again. "ANIKA" He screamed, rushing forward towards his wife who had just fallen to the ground with a *thud*. Dropping to his knee's next to her fallen form, he held her head in his hands and called out again, but she didn't respond. "Om call the doctor. EVERYONE JUST MOVE AWAY" He said the first part hurriedly to his brother who was kneeling beside him and the second part was shouted angrily to his family, whom on seeing Anika fall to the ground had rushed forward crowding her, but hearing his angry shout they all quickly moved back. Anika, please wake up. You want to go right? I will let you go, but please wake up. Please.
*********************
"Congratulations, she's pregnant" Dr Agarwal said to the family members who were assembled outside the room, waiting for him. He'd been a doctor for about 2 decades now but never once in his entire career had he gotten such a comical response from the family to whom he gave such news to. He watched as the various emotions and expressions played out in front of him. The matriarch of the family clasped her hands together in prayer, thanking the almighty for this wonderful gift. Mr Tej Oberoi looked slightly amused as if enjoying a private joke. Mrs Jhanvi Oberoi looked simply ecstatic, grinning widely at her mother-in-law. Mr Shakti Oberoi had first looked confused, then after giving his son a shocked stare, he started to smile aswell, but the smile disappeared as quickly as it appeared, to be replaced by a thoughtful expression. Mrs Pinky Oberoi looked like she was about to faint, luckily her still thinking husband held onto her.
The two young women, Priyanka and Saumya, had gasped and hugged each other, jumping up&down slightly, their happiness evident. Mrs Tia Oberoi looked like someone had just told her that her plastic surgery wasn't done correctly. Mr Omkara and Mr Rudra shared a bewildered look, turned to their elder brother, stared at him with accusing eyes and then grinned Cheshire cat smiles. They walked over to him and nudged him from either side giving him winks and whispering something in his ear. But Mr Shivaay Singh Oberois reaction was the most interesting, he looked like he was having an internal battle with multiple personalities. Mr S.S Oberoi went from being stone still, to thinking, to having a look of realisation, to shock and then he smiled. He smiled as a husband would smile on hearing that he was going to be a father. Now why is he so happy? He looks as if I just told him that His wife is pregnant. Is he the father of this child?... You better get going Agarwal, rich peoples secrets get people like you killed. So just smile and walk away. Do it now!
Clearing his throat to get everyone's attention, he said "She's about 3 & a half weeks pregnant. But you will have to go visit a gynaecologist for proper tests to be done. The baby is safe and so is Ms Anika. I'm not going to prescribe any medication because she's just weak from all the morning sickness. But make sure she eats properly and stays hydrated. If you need to know anything, just give me a call. I'll take your leave. Bye" He wasn't sure if they had payed any attention to his words or not, but on getting nods from Mr Tej & Mr Shakti, he walked away.
*******************
"Shivaay, have you heard? Now do you believe me? I told you that she was a cheap girl. Now look, oh my mata only knows what happened. Go ask her whose baby it is. This is all just her plan to trap you. I don't know who's baby she's trying to trap you wi" Pinky had been raving and ranting since the doctor left, cursing Anika , cursing their fate, cursing just about everything she could think off. But finally Shivaay cut her off by shouting angrily "Enough mom! The baby is mine. I will not have you say another word against my baby or Anika". His words got multiples gasps and shocked looks. Shakti being the first to recover went over to Shivaay, held his shoulder and asked "But how Shivaay"
"Arre chote papa, what do you mean how? Don't you know how babies are made" Rudra said in a disbelieving voice. He's acting as if Shivaay bhaiya just fell from the sky. Why aren't these people SMRT like me? "Rudra, Shut Up!" Half of his family members shouted, scaring Rudra into going closer to Om who was shaking his head. "Ok" He said in response, not knowing why they had shouted at him, but looking at his chote papa he realised that he must have said something wrong because Mr Shakti Singh Oberoi looked embarrassed. Ohh, why's he looking like that? Ruddy, it's best you keep quiet. Else the next patient will be you.
"Papa, the baby is mine. Anika is pregnant with my baby" Shivaay told his father, his voice flowing with joy. I'm going to be a father. Thank you Anika. You're giving me everything I didn't know I needed. Hahaha, someone is going to call me papa, a little Anika&I. Mmm Shivika? That sounds like a beautiful name for my princess."Shivaay are you forgetting that you're going to divorce this women! Tia is pregnant, she's the one who is carrying your child, not Anika. Go as" Pinky had started her rant again but like before Shivaay turned to her, his eyes blazing with so much anger that seeing this Pinky stepped back alittle shutting up immediately. "I. Said. The. Baby. Is. Mine." He said slowly, danger edging every word.
"Anika bhabi, congratulations and thank you!!! I'm going to be a chote papa" On hearing Rudra's excited words, Shivaay spun around and saw that Anika had came out of the room looking slightly haggard. Rushing to her, he pulled her into a hug, trying to convey his happiness through it. Only to be pushed away by by Anika who said "I'm leaving, and no one will dare stop me". She turned to go but Shivaay gripped her hand, spinning her around to face him. "Why didn't you tell me? Did you not know?" He fired his questions at her, at first he thought that she maybe hadn't know until today, but seeing the look in her eyes at his questions, he knew that she had know long before today.
Tightening his grip on her arm, he stepped closer, voice dangerously low but loud enough for everyone to hear, he said "You knew that you were pregnant and you didn't tell me. You're pregnant with my baby and you want to leave me. You think I will let you go. Anika. When you have my baby with you?" But the response he got, had him dropping her arm and staggering back. "The baby isn't yours. It's not your baby"
Om quickly went to Shivaay, intending on giving his brother support because he had seen Shivaay's response to what Anika had said. He'd seen his brothers hurt, seen how his eyes dimmed, seen how his brother had turned weak for a moment. But Shivaay stopped Om's advancement by raising his hand. Om saw his brother straighten up, his eyes cold and dangerous. And what happened next shocked the breath out of every person in the room, hands flew to cover mouths and some people even stepped back in shock. *THAPP*
Anika's hand flew to her cheek, still unable to register what had happened, all she knew was that her cheek was heating up and pain was spreading across the left side of her face causing her eyes to fill with tears. She looked up at Shivaay and what she saw there, confused her. He wasn't Shivaay, he was SSO, with stormy eyes, the same SSO who had threaten her on the day of his wedding. But he didn't scare her anymore. She couldn't allow herself to be scared. She had to do this for her baby. For her baby. You can't be weak Anika, think about your baby. How dare he slap you. And in front of his family. You've not done the right thing Shivaay.
She lurched forward, grabbed onto his collar, eyes blazing at his audacity to slap her and shouted at him, tears running down her face, her anger, her pain, everything that she'd been bottling up for the last few weeks finally taking over her "HOW DARE YOU SHIVAAY? HOW DARE YOU. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO LAY A HAND ON ME. YOU WI" But she was interrupted by Shivaay taking her hands of his collar and pushing her away. "HOW DARE I? HOW DARE YOU ANIKA. HOW DARE YOU KEEP THIS AWAY FROM ME. YOU WANTED TO KEEP MY BABY AWAY FROM ME. I WILL NOT SPARE YOU FOR THIS ANIKA" Shivaay shouted back at Anika, equally angry and hurt.
"Damn it Shivaay this is NOT YOUR BABY" Anika said, throwing her hands in the air. Why can't he let this go. He's making this harder for me. Why keep us here when he isn't even ready to accept that I'm his wife. How will he accept that he's going to have a baby with a middle class girl who has no 'naam khoon or khandaan'. Anika had been so lost in her thoughts that she hadn't noticed what was happening until Rudra stepped in front her screaming a "NO BHAIYA". Looking taken aback she looked around Rudra's shoulder to see Om restraining a demented looking Shivaay whose eyes was spitting fire while he shouted "Let me go Om, I will strangle her. I will kill her today. It's my baby Om, it is MY BABY. Let me go DAMN IT" He tried to wrench himself free one last time, but Om tightened his hold while Rudra stepped in front of Anika again, blocking her view.
"Shivaay, get a hold of yourself. She's pregnant. Stop it, you will hurt her and the baby" Om said desperately to his brother, he had never seen Shivaay behave this way. On hearing those words, Shivaay stopped struggling and stood still, he looked at Om and nodded. Composing himself, he straightened his shirt and gave Om a look that said 'I'm ok, let me go now'. Reluctantly Om let go of Shivaay and stepped aside, but stayed close enough in case he needed to grab hold of his brother again. "Anika, please go inside the room, you need to rest. We will talk later" Shivaay said calmly, looking at Rudra who was still standing protectively in front of Anika.
Rudra was scared, seeing his bhaiya like this scared him. He's never seen him like this. Ever. It's probably Anika bhabi. She brings out the best and worst of him. But why is she denying that this is bhaiya's baby? What happened to them? "Rudra" Shivaay called out to him, gesturing at him to move aside. But Rudra stood there, unsure of whether to move or still protect his bhabi and future niece/nephew. Looking at his bhaiya, he saw that even thought his eyes looked red, it was calmer than before, it wasn't stormy. Oh a sigh, he stepped beside his bhabi. Looking at Anika, Rudra saw that she looked shaken up, tears streaked her cheeks and she was hiccuping, but she still hadn't let her guard down. She was still his tadibaaz Anika bhabi.
Shivaay looked at Anika who was staring at him with accusing eyes and he saw how tired she was. She needs to rest, eat something and rest. The baby is making her tired. My baby. He smiled at that thought, the thought of his baby. But his mother's voice interrupted his thoughts, breaking eye contact with Anika, he looked over to his mother who had walked over to him and was saying in a slightly raised tone "How can you be so sure that the baby is yours, Shivaay? When she says the baby isn't yours then why do you keep insisting that it is?" And Shivaay calmly in response said "Because I know she is lying, the baby in her womb is mine. It's mine. Anika is lying. But why is she lying?" he had been addressing his mother, but on the last part he turned to Anika, looking at her as if trying to looking into her mind. "Why Anika? Why are you lying" He asked her, his voice rough with so many emotions. The look in his eyes showed how confused and hurt he was.
"Shi" Anika, unable to hear and see how hurt he was by all this, had started to explain but Tia, who had been a mute spectator of the drama had decided that she needed to also be part of this, said in her usual taunting voice "Shivaay baby, if Anika is saying the baby is not yours, then it's not yours. It must be some" "TIA!!" Shivaay's shout cut her off, it made her frightened to hear him scream like that, his voice sharp enough to cut her, she shivered and stepped closer to Pinky. "Not another word Tia. This is between my wife and I. No one will speak in between." Shivaay continued through gritted teeth. Turning to Anika on the last word, he took a step closer to her but he stopped hearing his mother's voice again.
"I want a DNA test done. I want to know if the baby is yours or not. I don't trust this cheap girl. She could just be trying to trap you and this is all part of her plan. Get a DNA test done Shivaay!" Pinky told him, determined to prove to her son that this girl was bad news for them. There was always some trouble popping up whenever she was around. Continuing she said "If you can have a DNA test done for the baby that Tia is carrying, then you can have one done for this girl" Once the test is done, my Shivaay will know what a cheap girl she is. And she'll finally be out of our lives. Oh my mata knows what kind of magic she's done for my son.
"No. A DNA test is not necessary mom. With Tia, I knew I didn't share that kind of a relationship. With Anika, I know that this is my baby, because Anika and i..." Shivaay explained to his mother in an exhausted voice but stopped when he realised he was about to say too much. Looking at Anika he saw that she was standing wide eyed and was colouring up slightly. So she remembers too. Is that why she's been avoiding me? Is that why she wants to leave? "I don't have to explain myself to anyone. This baby is mine. End of story. Prinku Saumya, take Anika to our room. I will be there in a bit" He said to the bewildered looking crowd in front of him, aiming the last part at his sisters.
Ears reddening abit from some of the looks he was getting, mainly from his brothers, papa and bade ma, he did his 'SSO signature' move and turned to his Dadi. "Dadi explain to everyone that I will not hear another word against my baby or Anika. I'm going to make an important call and then Anika & i will come down for supper." Looking at Anika, he continued "Go with Prinku and Saumya. Now. Or would you prefer if I carried you up to the room??" Which earned him gasps, coughs and throats clearing. But Anika, Anika looked like she would have preferred to knock him into unconsciousness with one of the many vases in the lounge. Giving her his SSO stare, he waited for her to turn around and walk up the stairs, which surprisingly she did. She must be more tired than I thought. Letting out a sigh, he finally relaxed. Only to notice that he was still holding her mungalsutra.
"Anika! Wait." Walking over to her as she stopped near the stairs, he stepped closer until they were cm's apart, raised his hands and put the necklace back where it belonged. Around her neck. "I want my wife and my baby. No, I need my wife and baby" He whispered to her. Leaning down, he cupped her face and pressed a soft kiss to her forehead. Turning around he walked towards his study room, gesturing to an amused Om and confused looking Rudra to follow him. Leaving behind the rest of the family who still wasn't sure if everything that just happened was true or if they had fallen asleep and dreamt it all.
