My version of what happens after the prampara has been looked after... š
I wanted to post it before Feb 24th 2012 episode as it follows episode aired on Feb 23rd 2012, alas, couldnt.
Do let me know what you think š
"No! No! No!" she kept on repeating to herself as she sat totally still in the middle of the hurriedly decorated bed. Events of the last 24 hours or so started to play in her mind which had been numb till then. She felt as if she had woken up from a coma, and she had gone into coma only she didn't know about and no one else realized either. How could they? Weren't they busy dealing with their own tragedies to stop and think about her, whose life had been turned upside down in a matter of what, 30 minutes!
Desperately, she held her head with her hands as if trying to stop her brain from thinking too fast, but one scene after another kept flashing in her mind. Him threatening, she relenting helplessly in the end, the mandir, the cruelly put sindoor, the hastily tied mangalsutra, everyone angrily reproaching her, blaming her, questioning her and then the final blow after which she had lost all capacity to think or talk, her family shunning her not even once giving her a even a centimeter's space for doubt!
"Nooo," she groaned in agony and started to cry bitterly, "I never wanted this, this is not me," she stood up to stand in front of the mirror to look into the eyes of a complete stranger, all decked up and looking exquisitely beautiful, but those eyes, they were not hers. "Have they always been so lifeless?" she wondered in a haze. With a snap she turned around and looked around her as if taking stock of where she was.
"What had he said? She had got what she wanted! A rich man!" she thought anger reeling inside her. "Who does he think he is? God? He can do whatever he wants to and not offer a single word by way of explanation!" she thought almost wild with anger. The lava built up inside her ready to blow any minute, every fibre of her body was on fire, she wanted to erase the last 24 hours from her life, no! The last 6 months in which she had ever come face to face with him!
She tore off the dupatta from her head followed by every bit of jewellery she had on her and sat on the bed holding her head in her head, rocking back and forth in utter and complete rage. "Damn you Raizada!" she thought clenching her hands tight, "Write your own destiny, leave others on their own Damn YOU!" she shouted silently . And then she heard his footsteps, arrogant and uncaring like him, she felt bile rising inside her.
With a jerk she stood up and turned around to look at him furiously, breathing hard, "Why? Just tell me why? If you are man enough," she challenged him. "You arrogant ''..," she couldn't bring any bad word to her mouth, not because she cared for him but she had never used any before. She went towards him to hold him by his collar and demanded, "Why?"
"Why? Don't act so innocent Khushi!" he spat out the words laced with loathe, "you had planned it so well with your lover, Shayam Jha," he said chewing on each word, "how easily you asked him to leave my Di for you! And standing in this very house!" he shook her violently and pushed her away from him.
Time stood still for her as she stared at him disbelief written all over her face, and she imploded. She lost all her energy and sank down to the floor but her stare on his face didn't waver. She lost all her strength to speak, "a misunderstanding! Her life had been had been twisted and skewed over a misunderstanding!" she thought going crazy. She wanted to ask him why he hadn't confronted her before exacting his revenge, but she couldn't say a single word.
"Yes, I know about your scheming ways," he continued in his egotistical ignorance.
"No, you don't!" she tried to shout, "No, you don't'" she kept repeating.
She got up, turned around to go into the washroom and appeared minutes later in her salwar qameez that she had worn earlier. He was sitting on the lounger; she stood in front of him, all traces of tears washed away, "I can't suffer for your proud, misplaced and totally wide of the mark egotism. I am going," she declared, turned around and left.
