PAST OR FUTURE AN AARYA FF- PART 10 (PAGE 28) - Page 7

"How dare you kiss him?" Prashant said while throwing Aarti on the floor of her room.

"He is my husband and in my womb is his child," she answered with full confidence.

"Oh, yes," He replied grinning before slapping her mercilessly.

"Listen Aarti, I do not want to hurt you so the sooner you forget Yash, the better."

Hearing this she stood up," Abuse me to your heart's content but remember that Yash is my husband. I love him and he loves me and Ansh so Mr.Dubey, remember that you are nothing to me."

Unable to hold in his anger anymore, he held her hand possessively and dragged her to the door and then turned her towards him.

"What did you say?"

"I love Yash and he too lo''''"

Before being able to complete her sentence, Prashant held her by the nape of her neck and banged her head against the door, causing beads of blood to trickle down her forehead but this did not discourage her.

"Thank you Prashant, I did not get to bring my box of vermillion so you provided me with some," she said passing her hand over the blood and after rubbing her hand on the injury and sourcing the blood, she then immediately moved her hand on the parting of her hair.

"My name is Mrs. Aarti Yash Scindia and on my forehead is the symbol of my marriage and in my womb, a symbol of my love."

"You will not give up so easy, will you?" he whispered while throwing her on the floor.

All of a sudden, Prashant's attention fell on something else. There was Ansh whom Aarti left to spend the night by his grandparents next to them by the doorway.

"Ansh''..you here!" he spoke with a friendly tone.

"Friend uncle, you are home. Badima said that you were out. Mumma, you are here. Why are you bleeding?"

Saying this, Ansh closed the little distance in between him and Aarti and helped her get up.

"You have done this to my mumma, haven't you?"

"No Ansh."

"You are lying. I saw it myself."

"No''''I did not do that."

"Yes you did."

Unable to take it anymore, Prashant agreed with Ansh's statement.

"Yes, I did as I have the right as Aarti is my wife and you are my son."

"I am not your son! I am like your son but not yours."

"Yes, you are. I am your real father."

"No, you are not!"

Prashant then proceeded towards the wardrobe and took out his and Aarti's wedding photo and showed it to Ansh.

"So you accept that you are my son?"

"No''''..Yash Scindia is my father. He took good care of me and he fulfilled all my demands since Papa and Mama got married. He is my Superhero Papa and I am his 'strong beta' and no one can take that place, not even if you are my real father."

"Ansh, beta. What are you saying?"

"I am saying the truth. My father is Yash Scindia, my mumma is Aarti Scindia and I am Ansh Scindia."

"You speak a lot for a small boy!"

"No'''.I just speak like that to people who do not know anything about me and who ill-treat my mumma."

"Shut up!" shouted the devil and he planted a smack on Ansh's tender cheeks.

"You and your mumma better get that I am your family and whether you accept it or not, it is true."

Holding both of their hands, he dragged them to the bed, pushed them onto it and quickly locked to door preventing them from leaving the room or house.

"Don't worry Ansh''''.everything will be fine. We will be with your Yash papa very soon. I am sure," she cried, wiping his tears as she shed her own.

"Really?'

"Yes!"

"Mumma, I want to talk to papa,"

"No, Ansh! Not now!"

"Why not, mumma? Please!" he exclaimed in a deafening voice.

"Shh! OK! OK."

In order to keep Prashant away from her and Ansh while making the call, she left the locked room and headed to the bathroom with Ansh.

"Speak Ansh'''''but softly!" she whispered to her son.

Ansh took up the phone and heard, "Hello, Aarti," in a undertone but with much desperation.

"Hello, papa!"

Yash became emotional at the sound of his son's voice'''''Prashant's son's voice. A bullet pierced his heart when he thought that Ansh would never call him 'papa' again after he knew about Prashant.

"Ansh beta, do you know who is your real papa?'

"Yes, Prashant uncle is."

At the sound of his innocent son's comment, he shut his eyes in pain.

"Why are you calling him uncle then''..call him papa."

"Because you and you alone is my papa. Prashant uncle said that he was my papa and I believe him but he never loved me as he left my mumma and me alone and he even slapped me today. You are my papa as you have loved me the most anyone ever could. I love you, my superhero papa."

Yash felt somewhat happy and regretful at his statement as he knew his son would always be his. His heart ached though as he could not let this last because if Ansh would be so rebellious of the fact that Prashant would be his real dad and called him 'papa', Ansh would be further abused by Prashant, the devil.

"No, Ansh. Prashant is your father and you and your mumma have to stay the rest of your lives with him so you should call him papa. OK?"

"Papa, no. I will not call him papa as you are my papa! OK?"

Yash knew that it would be hard to convince Ansh so he let it slide by.

"Papa, you said we have to stay with Prashant uncle forever but mumma has said that you would come back for us. Are you coming for us or not?"

Yash's heart broke at his son's question.

"Ansh beta, please give your mumma the phone if she is near you and as a good boy, can you please go out of the room your mumma is in?"

"OK, papa. Bye bye. Love you."

"Love you too beta. Bye bye and do not tell anyone that I am talking to your mumma, OK?"

"Yes, papa."

Yash flinched as he just realized he asked his son to lie to everyone. The man who hated lies just asked his own son to lie. What a situation they were in!

"Hello Yash," broke him out of day-dreaming.

"Aarti, why did you tell Ansh that I would come back? You know that is not true and you are giving him false hopes."

"What should I tell him Yash? That we have to stay with Prashant forever because he blackmailed me and you into going back to our first spouses and Palak and Payal's mother is back and now you have your first wife and we can never go back to you," she said with growing anger and sorrow at every syllable.

"Aarti, I just do not want you giving him false hopes."

"Yash, have you told Palak and Payal that I will never come back?"

No answer came.

"You did not, did you?"

"No, I told them you will keep visiting them but Aarti something really strange is going on with Arpita."

"What do you mean?"

"She is distracted and irritated. It may be normal but why now when she got her life back?"

"Why do you not try talking to her Yash?"

"I tried but it is the same with me,"

""Well Yash, I think she did not like the way she got her life back, you know, by blackmail."

"Probably''''..Aarti?"

"Yes, Yash,"

"Aarti, I am concerned about one thing though,"

"Palak and Payal are really missing you and even though they yearned for their mother, you came into their life and filled the void. Now, even their biological mother is not enough for them. They are bonding with her as before but are gloomy as you are not there. Aarti, I have now realized how dependant they have become on you and Arpita is not you and not as caring as she was previously for them. She also is very unhappy with us but do not worry, she looks less disturbed around our angels. Aarti, this step we have taken is causing pain for not me and you alone but also our children, our family."

Saying this, Yash had tears in his eyes and Aarti also.

"Yash, we have taken the right decision for Vidhi bhabhi. How is she?"

"Aarti, she is distraught and I have covered it up saying some goons tried to rob her but I saved her and I got her to play along as I do not want the family to hate Arpita as she has to stay with us and if they hate her, Arpita and Prashant will try something else, remember that was the same reason we would not dare to return to each other even now."

"Yash, how did ma and bauji take the news that I returned to Prashant. You have told them that I am divorcee, right?"

"Yes and no one is taking it easy. They are not angry but confused and sorrow stricken that you left."

"Well you have to explain to them why I left without using the fact of emotional blackmail. Just tell them I was in love with Prashant and you and Arpita were in love with each other so this happened."

"Aarti, I told them that but they are still in a bad mood."

"Yash, leave them to digest the fact and they will be fine but tell me what occurred. Now explain tlo me what exactly happened that moment."

"I will tell you that when we meet."

'What?"

"We have to meet Aarti."

"Palak and Payal are insistent on it and they said that they were not going to eat until you meet them. They only told this to me. Others think that they ate."

"But Yash, I cannot''''I,"

"You have to! Please'''for me!"

"Fine, I will."

"Bye and Aarti'''love you!"

"Love you too Yash."

Aarti hung up the phone and wondered why she just put herself in this position.
