Thanks a lot❤️. I have updated the new chapter.

CHAPTER 1 - THE PERFECT BAHU

Delhi

Diwali is a day for brightness and a hope. And it obviously calls for a celebration. The small lanes of Delhi is glowing with the artificial decorative lights all over the shops and the diyas in the house. Happiness and positivity are evoked by seeing the overall setup of the lane. The lane looks bright in the evening time.

Saxena house is also decorated with flowers, diyas, lights and the smiles of Saxena family.

Sushila is busy in the kitchen cooking the favorite sweet of Dhruv. Her sister-in-law Lalita comes inside the kitchen.

Lalita – "Arrey Sushila... it's smelling good. Let me taste it."

Sushila – "No jiji... not now. Wait until it got cooked properly and served by me. No ifs and buts."

Lalita – "Huh... You're impossible, Sushila. But I cannot wait for long to taste it. If you make me waiting for long, I'd steal the vessel and run away."

Sushila laughed – "Even Dhruv says the same. He'd like this sweet since his childhood."

Sushila suddenly noticed what she said and the smile disappears. Lalita felt embarrassed and she patted Sushila's shoulders.

Lalita – "It's okay, Sushila. Don't keep hurting yourself upon this."

Sushila – "No jiji. I don't really care about anyone who brought some random woman to my house and claiming her as his wife."

Lalita – "Sushila..."

Sushila – "Not now, jiji."

Lalita kept her hands on her shoulders and nodded consolably to Sushila.

After sometime, Sushila called everyone for dinner. Dhruv silently appears from his room with a soft smile in blue kurta. Behind him, his wife Tara too appears shyly in a traditional saree, covering her hair with the saree – giving a perfect vibe of a conventional daughter-in-law.

Dhruv and Tara sit in the dining table where Dhruv is sitting next to Sushila and Tara is next to Dhruv. Sushila stands from her table and goes to the opposite side and sits with Lalita and Sanjay.

Tara stands up and starts serving for the family. She served for Dhruv, Lalita and Sanjay. When she is about to serve Sushila, Sushila gets the ladle from her in angst and serves herself disappointing Dhruv and Tara.

Dhruv signed Tara to sit with him. Tara goes and Dhruv served food in her plate. Tara starts eating the food.

Sushila murmurs, "My dining table and kitchen is getting impure who doesn't even respect traditions."

Lalita joins with her, "Let it be, jiji. Wonder what sin we did in the past."

Tara suddenly remembers that she forgot to thank the god before eating the food which is the ritual in Saxena family. Tara looks at Dhruv apologetically. Dhruv says, "It's okay."

Dhruv, Tara, Sushila, Lalita and Sanjay folded their hands and prayed to god.

Then they started eating the food.

After completion of their dinner, Tara goes to the kitchen to wash the vessels. Lalita comes there.

Lalita – "No need to do that, madam. We people are not very old that we couldn't wash the vessels."

Tara – "No chachi. I'd lookafter this."

Lalita – "I'm telling you, right? If Sushila watch this, she won't like these things."

Tara moves from the sink.

Tara – "Okay chachi. Shall I heat the milk for maaji? Please let me do this."

Lalita makes faces and turns back. Tara switch on the stove and heats the milk. She pours down the milk into the glass.

Tara takes the milk and knocks Sushila's door. After getting a yes, Tara pulled the door and enters inside with a smile.

Tara – "Maa, this is for you."

Sushila – "Keep it over the table and leave from here."

Tara feels gloomy and keeps the milk on the table.

Tara – "Good night, Maaji."

Sushila gets irritated, "Only when you leave this house, that night will be good for me. Honestly."

Tara – "What are you saying, maa?"

Sushila – "Why don't you just get it in the first time itself?"

"Finally, you said what you want, maa" says Dhruv who enters her room.

Sushila turns her face.

Dhruv – "I won't let Tara be in a place where she doesn't get any respect. She'd leave your house along with me."

Tara – "Dhruv, have you lost your mind?"

Dhruv – "Just come with me, Tara."

Dhruv drags Tara to his room. Dhruv takes his clothes from the closet and packs it in the luggage.

Tara – "Dhruv, whatever we are doing is not right."

Dhruv – "Yes, we are not doing right. That's why I want to make things right. Pack your things now."

Tara – "Dhruv, you're taking decisions out of haste. They are our parents and we should not leave them just like that."

Dhruv – "Then what about you and me? Did you forget that you're a physiotherapist? You left your job and started wearing these heavy sarees just to please my mom. This is not right. And in return, they are just taking you for granted."

Tara – "Dhruv, they are elderly people and we angered them and disappointed them. We cannot expect them to treat nicely this soon."

Dhruv – This soon... Seriously? It's been one and half years and my family is just holding their ego in their head. And don't forget whatever you've done for them. You're constantly making efforts to be the best daughter-in-law of the family and in fact you're the best too. But they are just treating you like some non-existing person. Didn't you hear what mom told you now?"

Tara – "So? Getting out of the house is the solution?"

Dhruv – "No. But I promised you to provide a respectable life. That's my priority. And yes, we did mistake by marrying each other against our family. But it was because our family was fixing our alliance with someone else despite knowing our affair. And we wanted not to ruin any third person's life. But now, we couldn't live just by satisfying people."

Tara sheds tears.

Dhruv wiped it.

Dhruv – "Are you ready to be Dr. Tara?"

Tara – "But..."

Dhruv – "But you're already Dr. Tara?"

Tara laughs.

Dhruv cupped Tara's face with his hands.

Dhruv – "I love you, Tara. I won't let my love cut your wings."

Tara – "I love you, Dhruv."

Dhruv – "So, pack your things."

Tara – "Are we not doing mistakes?"

Dhruv – "Not at all."

***

Dhruv and Tara come out of the house with their luggage.

Dhruv shouts, "I'm going out of the house with my wife. You can live your life peacefully with your pride."

None of them shows up.

Dhruv – "I expected it."

Tears down poured from Dhruv's eyes.

Tara wiped his tears and hugged him.

Tara – "It will be fine, Dhruv."

Dhruv kissed her forehead.

Dhruv and Tara leave the house and Sushila laments over Dhruv's departure hiding behind the pillars. Lalita and Sanjay felt bad for it.

Precap: Dhruv and Tara comes to Ooty. They recieved a call from a wealthy man who claims to provide job for Tara.

Interesting setup! Let's see how and if Dhruv's family gets along with Tara at some point of time. ❤️

Thanks a lot. There are more twists yet to come.

Do check out the next chapter.

CHAPTER 2 - A HOPE FOR DHRUV-TARA

Tara and Dhruv planned to go Tara's house in Chennai and took the train to Chennai. When Tara informed the news to her parents, Tara's parents spoke very harshly to her and insulted Dhruv as well. They instructed not to come to their house with Dhruv.

Sadly, Tara and Dhruv turned down the decision of going to Tara's house. The train reached Chennai.

Tara and Dhruv stayed in a hostel as paying guest. Dhruv tried to look for jobs and Tara too started looking for jobs in various hospitals.

15 days passed.

Dhruv received a call from a private number. Nervously, Dhruv answered the call. After talking for some time, Dhruv smiled. Tara anxiously asked him who was on the call.

Dhruv carried Tara in his arms and spins joyfully shouting, "We got a job, Tara. That too with a high salary."

Tara – "Dhruv... please let me down. My head is spinning."

Dhruv let Tara down.

Dhruv – "Sorry Tara. I got slightly over-excited."

Tara jokingly asks, "Slighly over-excited?"

Dhruv – "Over excited. Okay?"

Tara laughs.

Tara – "Who was on the call and what is the job?"

Dhruv's phone beeps and a message notification popped up. Dhruv shows the message to Tara.

Dhruv – "We can go to the hotel by tomorrow afternoon to meet the man. He will provide us the job. Now you go and sleep. I'll tell the rest of the details tomorrow."

Next day

Green Emerald Palace Hotel

Dhruv and Tara entered the hotel and sit at the table that was specified by the caller.

Dhruv - "Sanjeev Vishwanath is an Indian but he is one of the youngest business tycoons from California. His native is Ooty. He is looking for a physiotherapist for his mother."

Dhruv shows his LinkedIn profile to Tara.

Tara exclaims, "Seems very rich."

At their right side, there is a big glass door through which the garden with a big swimming pool is visible.

Tara passes her sight over there. A young man is swimming in the pool.

Tara – "Is he Sanjeev? The one who is swimming..."

Dhruv – "Yeah yes. He is the one."

Sanjeev comes out of the pool flexing his muscles. He grabs a towel from the waitress and wiped his body. Two girls come to him and touched his chest and abs. He pulled two of them and kissed them one after another.

Tara – "Playboy."

Dhruv – "Casanova."

Tara – "Whatever. He has money to pull girls over him."

Sanjeev completes his kiss and wears the bathrobe and moves towards the changing room.

After 10 minutes, Sanjeev appears in a three piece formal suit and comes to Dhruv-Tara's table along with a lady who is his PA.

Sanjeev shakes his hands with Dhruv. Sanjeev sits in a bossy manner opposite Dhruv and Tara.

Sanjeev - "It's a six months contract but I'd pay you 1 crore each. In return I expect success from you."

Tara - "But what is our work, sir?"

Sanjeev answers, "Dhruv is going to be my mom's clinical psychologist and her security. And Tara is my mom's physiotherapist and personal nurse."

Tara and Dhruv nodded.

Dhruv thinks, "How did he know that I'm a psychologist."

Dhruv – "But I have no experience as a psychologist. I studied it but after graduation, I become a wedding planner."

Sanjeev – "Aren't you the best student from the batch? Your professor Mr. Deshpande suggested that no one can be better than you. And you didn't practice psychology as you didn't get proper income from it, right?"

Sanjeev put down all the points to Dhruv's surprise. Dhruv wonders how he got the contact of his professor and how he tracked down all the reasons. Dhruv silently nodded.

Sanjeev – "Don't worry, Dhruv. I'd pay you for your work handsomely."

Dhruv smiled.

Sanjeev – "Also my mom runs a cottage. She lives there only. Its name is Monsoon Cottage. Earlier it was used for business and people stay over there but now we left the business. She is psychologically unstable too. She is taking medications for that as well. So be careful. Also, she has killed two doctors."

Tara – "What?"

Sanjeev says, "Don't worry. She'll never kill innocent people. Those two people abused my mom using her innocence that made her mentally ill even more and so her illness shaved their heads from body."

Dhruv is relieved.

Tara says, "It's great to meet you, sir. Now-a-days children leave their parents at old age homes. But you're paying 2 crores to look after your mom."

Sanjeev smiled.

Sanjeev says, "I selected you both among 70 people for a specific reason. I trust you guys. By the way, you can stay there itself in a lavish room."

Tara feels goosebumps.

Dhruv asks, "Shall we take our 8-year son there?"

Sanjeev says, "Sure. (Looks at his PA) Guys, she is my PA. She'll explain the work in detail. Don't forget to get 15 lakhs cheque as advance before you leave. By today's night, a car will come to your hostel and you can leave for Ooty. The driver will send you at the right address."

Sanjeev leaves the place.

Next day

Monsoon Cottage

The couple with their son Yug enters the cottage where Sanjeev's mom Vidya Devi lives. It had a classic architecture. It had a lot of pillars.

Yug ran into the house and hugged a pillar and murmurs, "I love this pillar very much."

Tara looks for Sanjeev's mom. She searches her and finds her in kitchen who is cooking food. Tara says, "Vidya Devi mam, please don't strain yourself, let me cook."

Vidya turns and smiles at her, "So you're Tara, right?"

Tara nodded.

Vidya – "No need to call me mam. Aunty is fine. Sanjeev informed me about Dhruv and your arrival. Take rest now and let me cook."

Tara tries to convince her but Vidya remains adamant. Tara is quite surprised by seeing Vidya. Tara thinks, "She is normal but why Sanjeev sir hire us as her physiotherapist and guard?"

Tara and Dhruv look around the house. It looks like a palace. The grandeur of the cottage shows the South Indians magnum opus at architecture. Yug is still hugging the pillar. Tara caressed his hair and kisses him.

Tara says, "He like this house."

Dhruv asks little sarcastically, "Why are you hugging this pillar, Yug?"

Yug says, "My name is Yug (pronounces each letter separately). I know Johnny Johnny yes papa rhymes. I hate train sounds."

Yug burst into tears. Surprised Tara tried to console him.

Dhruv knelt down and holds Yug's chin and apologized to him holding his ears. Yug smiled and goes upstairs.

Tara says, "Dhruv, we don't know who is this boy. But he is the reason for our survival indirectly. We should give a good treatment for Yug that cure his mental illness."

Dhruv thinks, "He must have undergone something too bad in his life and because of that he becomes mentally retarded."

Dhruv says, "Tara, we must use the money for curing his illness, then we must adopt him legally and then we can start our business. That is our motive."

Tara and Dhruv hugged each other. Tara goes upstairs looking for Yug.

Tara moves to upstairs. She is seeing the all the rooms and wondering at its design. She finds a room with a rusted door with a lock.

She heads towards the room seeing the roof's design. The tile in front of the room becomes little fluid. From that fluid, suddenly a broken human flesh leg full of blood come. Tara didn't see the leg, suddenly she slips there because of the leg and falls down.

Dhruv comes there seeing Tara fallen down in front of the door. He lifts her up. The leg disappears before they could notice.

Tara says, "I am fine."

Dhruv compelled her to show the leg to check whether any wound is there.

Dhruv finds something red sticked to Tara's foot and checks and its blood.

Dhruv - "Tara, you don't have any wound in your foot but.."

Tara – "There is more blood in my foot. Whose blood is this? "

To be continued...

Ooohhh.. I was wondering where the horror parts comes in and here it is!

2 crores! Damn, that's a big fat paycheck!!

Yug. Seems interesting!
