Hi guys,well this is my first ever attempt to make a FF.This may have 2-3 parts..not sure.Anyway,this is my first attempt so forgive me for any mistakesđłSo the story is starting 1 week after Aarti returns to SM after Yash boxing match.There is no pregnancy complications here.I've always wanted Aarti to be actually angry with Yash for his behaviour thus distancing herself from him,so this is my own little take..
"You seduced me!", "This is a sin!", "You betrayed me!"... Yash's harsh words to her kept on ringing on her head for ever since she returned to the Schindia Mansion a week ago.It has been 7 days since their heated arguement where Aarti screamed off to Yash that she loves her.But now? Now she is not sure anymore.Does she really love him?After everything that he has done and said to her,the amount of physical and emotional pain that he gave her for 1 month just because they both got close and became one that eventful night was too much for Aarti to comprehend and accept..She thought he was different from Prashant,but now she isn't sure anymore.
A week has passed since she looked,talked or even had any kind of communication with him.Everytime she had to make any interactions with him,she cleverly avoided it to ensure none of the family members knew of the tension between them.Yes,Yash told her to not come infront of him,but no,she is not doing this for him but for herself.She could not bring herself to look at those same eyes which accused her of things she could not have imagined coming out of Yash's mouth.She could not do this anymore.How was she going to tell another news that might shatter him even more? What was she going to do?
As Aarti was travelling to the Dubey's house,she thought of everything that has happened recently and instintively,she placed her hand on her stomach,slowing grazing it,knowing that a part of Yash is growing in her.A part of him which he calls a mistake.What would the future hold for this baby?So many confusions in her head and she decided that she will clear everything once and for all with Shoba ma once she sees her..
Aarti stepped into the house and instantly,Shoba knew something was wrong.Shoba ushered Aarti in and asked her to take a seat but Aarti had something else altogether in her mind..
Aarti: Ma,I just can't do this anymore.This is just too much for me to accept and move Ma..(tears starting to form) I know you told me that everything will be fine once I get back to the house but I cant just forget what Yashji told and did to me in the past month.His words,his conducts..everything is haunting me Ma.When he was so angry,I was so confused as to what I did that he became so self destructive but now when I know the actual reason for his anger,I dont know whether to feel sad for myself or angry at him..I feel cheap Ma,I feel used by him,he used me once and discarded me just like that and he had the nerves to say that I seduced him? Im literally living in hell there,Ma..
Shoba: Aarti beta,calm down,I know what Yashji did was not right at all but you have to see from his point of view.For him,he sees his 1st wife as everything and whatever happened between you was maybe too much and too soon for him.I agree,his behaviour was not justifiable at all but give him sometime Beta,Im sure he will apologize for his behaviour..
Aarti: Ma,you dont understand.,This is not about apologizing,but it is about my own dignity which he made mockery off! Nothing is going to revert back the words he spewed on me! Anyways,I have decided Ma,from now on,there will be nothing between me and Yashji.I will remain in the house only for the purpose of the kids and thats all..!
Shoba: Aarti what is wrong with you? Is this why Bauji and I got you remarried?So that you will be the nanny for your kids? What happened to your love for him? The same love you had which made you brave enough to walk on the fire to save him that day! And how about the baby growing in you? Yashji's baby?By the way did you even tell him about this matter? I told you many times to break the news to him,Aarti! Why are you wasting time!
Aarti: Love? (chuckles sarcastically while wiping away tears)..No Ma, from now on,there will no longer be any love for Yashji from me.My heart has become a stone after everything that has happened.Im also a human being with feelings Ma..How much can I endure? With Prashanth and now with Yashji..Why Ma all this only happens to me..
Shoba: What are you saying? Love is not something that can be deleted just like that in 1 second.You LOVE Yashji and you know that.What happened to you beta? I've never seen you this angry and disapppointed before.Beta,dont take decisions hastily,calm down and please tell Yashji about the baby soon!
Aarti: No Ma,I will not tell anyone about this baby..Why should I Ma? Why should I tell him about the symbol of something which he sees as a mistake and betrayal? He has no rights whatsoever over this baby..Everyone shall know about the baby when the right time comes but before that nothing will come out from my mouth.
Shoba: Are you crazy Aarti?? (shakes Aarti's shoulders)What is wrong with you! No matter what,Yashji has all the rights in the world over the child because its his child! Just because you're bearing it doesnt mean only you can decide its fate..You can't deny a father's responsibility and obligations..Besides,how sure are you that he will not accept the baby? Yashji is a good man,Aarti and he will not do any injustice to the baby!
Aarti; Responsibilty? Yes,exactly Ma.Thats how Yashji will see this baby right ? Just as his responsibilty and nothing else .Can Yashji provide the same love and affection he has for Ansh,Palak,Payal to the baby? For him,the baby will always be a symbol of his betrayal to Aarpitaji right?
Shoba: Aarti,calm down beta,you're making your own assumptions!.(As Shoba speaks,Aarti gets up and moves towards the door) Aarti,where are you going??
Aarti: Ma,Im done with this conversation..As I said,when the time comes then everyone will know about the pregnancy,Im not going to say anything about this..(She then leaves angrily while wiping her tears)
Shoba: (thinking to herself)..Oh what is going to happen now? I've never seen Aarti this angry and disappointed with anyone..She says she doesnt love Yashji anymore but she doesnt realise that only with great love and care comes greater disappointments..God,please help and guide these two lost souls..
As Aarti travels back to the Schindia Mansion,she feels completely broken and shattered yet she is firm that from now on,this is how Yash and her will be.Back to when they initially got married.
A new contract has been secured by him to plan a wedding in 3 weeks time and Yash was supposed to be working on it full time but somehow as he sits infront of the laptop,nothing is going on in his head.With heavy steps,Yash lies down on his bed and thinks back on everything that has happened recently.
He was at peace that finally he got apology from Aarpita from the boxing match after what happened between him and Aarti,the kids were back to the house again,and yes Aarti too was back but things are different now.
For 1 week,Aartiji did not talk,look ,communicate or even acknowledge his presence.She slept on the couch,refused to look at him,did not come near him..Somehow,her behaviour was disturbing him alot.Yes,he told her to stay away from him but did she actually listen to something that he said when he was angry? Is Aartji actually really angry with him for his behaviour? He refused to believe so because Yash knew that Aarti will never be angry with him.When he humiliated her during Palak's birthday,she did not say anything,when he accused her for changing Ansh's speech,she did not say anything,so how could she be angry with him now? Has his behaviour hurt her so much to a point where she hates him? The mere thought of Aarti hating him made Yash's stomach form knot..Her indifferences towards him was untolerable and her silence was too loud for him.. Because of her behaviour,Yash could not concentrate on anything else.Her thoughts completely filled up his mind
As Yash stared on the ceiling of their room,he heard drizzles of rain outside and immediately he was transported back to that eventful night.The night which changed his life.The night they became one.Thinking about the night before the boxing match was torturous for him since it reminded him of betraying Aarpita.
But now after being guilt free,when he thinks of the night,there is something different to it..A warm feeling rushes to his body when he recalls their first kiss.He tried to brush it off but these thoughts keep on running in his mind.The moments they spent in Mumbai,pot making,dancing,swing and involuntarily,a smile forms on his lips.With a loud thunderstorm,he comes out of his reverie and realised what he has been doing.Yash knew deep down inside something was awakening in him..and this awakening was triggered even further with Aarti's indifferences.The more she went away from him,the more he thought about her.He wasn't ready for it,but his heart knew that something was definitely changing..
Planning to revert back his mind to work,Yash moves to the laptop table when he heard anklets sound and immediately he knew Aarti was back from Shoba Ma's.Suddenly,Yash decided that he has to put a stop to everything by confronting to Aarti as to what is exactly happening between them..
Aarti entered their room,knowing that Yash was there but she completely ignored his presence and went to the cupboard.Yash knew he had to break the ice..
Yash: Umm,Aartiji..
Aarti heard his voice but chose to ignore it and she continued to look for clothes in the cupboard.
Yash,who began to feel extremely uneasy,decided to call her again a few times but without any response from her..he moved towards her and held her shoulders to turn her around..Aarti was startled by his actions and feeling as if her skin burned from his touch,she stared at his hand on her shoulders and looked back at him with so much of anger and resentment in her eyes.Yash was caught by surprise with the amount of anger in her eyes,decided to take back his hands and move a few steps backwards..
Aarti continued folding the sarees in the cupboard when Yash started to lose his cool..
Yash: What is wrong with you Aartiji?? Stop this at once..Why are you doing this? Please just settle this atleast for the kids sake..! (he again holds her shoulder and shakes her)
Aarti:Remove your hands from me at once.(with a cold emotionless voice)
Yash:No! I will not move from this place unless we settle this issue! Please Aartiji stop all this!
Aarti:I said remove your hands from me!(pushes his hands from her shoulders and walks away angrily)
Yash:Why the hell are you behaving like this??
Aarti: You know why?? Its because I hate you!! Do you get it Yashji?? I hate you!! Yes,hate! Please!..I know you dont even have any respect for me as the mother of our kids,your wife,the house's bahu but if you atleast have some ounce of respect for me as a human being ,then please stay away from my life! Stop bothering me! Stop looking at me expecting me to talk! Just stop everything you get it?? Just leave me in peace in this house! I came here to be the mother of the kids and let me be!
As she screamed angrily towards Yash and stormed off the room,Yash stood there,rooted to the ground,trying to sink in everything Aarti has spat out to him.. "HATE". and with that one word,one single tear rolled down from Yash's eye..
Next: Yash and Shoba's talk
