I woke up with the sound of alarm but I didn't set lastnight as I remember what's the time it was 5am ooh Shatakshi maybe she did and she is not around as she slept in guest room last night I know because when I went downstairs to call her back into room I saw her with Rishabh he was really close to her neck I don't know why but I felt this sudden rage in me , at first I wanted to go and grab her from there I don't know why but then who am I to question her we have nothing between us its been 1 year and we still are strangers who had sex one time nothing more and less as part of ritual I remember she used to make efforts after our first night she used to sleep in the hall waiting for me for 2 months , on sundays when I was home she used to try to make small talks but I didn't give her any reaction after that I left for Amsterdam to find my ex girlfriend Isha and to avoid my so called wife I stayed there for more 6 months I was thinking to stay some more but I got news that Isha is in Udaipur so I went home and searched for her but couldn't when I reached Shatakshi and directly asked me what I want she was looking so miserable the fire she had in her eyes I cannot forget those and I fueled them by sayin the truth about me and Isha everything I even showed her Isha's photo frame and I cannot believe she never threw her picture and I remember the photo that was on her side of table of us on wedding which was there for 8 months of our marriage after that day never came in my vision and never saw that fire in her eyes even that hope that was there when I was ignoring her and her eyes are empty there is nothing in her eyes no hope, no expectation, no wishes, that love that she showed to everyone was gone just like corpse and I don't know why I noticed these things and somehow it pains me I think its pity just pity nothing else or maybe guilt but I can't have more than that.
Sighing, I got up and made my way to the washroom and gym , I got myself ready in normal sweats and a white t-shirt as it was Sunday I went downstairs for breakfast and saw her in just plane brown saree and mandala art scoop blouse her pallu was tucked in her waist giving a view of her milky waist and back , hair tied in loose bun secured with just a stylus maybe she was working I looked in hall and her laptop ,tablet was on sofa, she was setting the breakfast whenever I see her she is indulge in something and something , sometimes cooking , cleaning ,setting table and I don't know where the hell is maid who should work instead of her and I hate it but I never say anything if I did she will expect something from so I don't at the same time Rishabh came and she gave him a smile turning around they were talking something she was continuously smiling and talking I also went their our eyes met her smile dropped , her eyes averted after that she never for once smiled at before that she used to smile at me widely whenever our eyes met , its not like I care ? I looked at her body from top to bottom her hairline was filled with vermillion, and there was a small red bindi on her forehead and a tikka she must have done pooja her neck doesn't have mangalsutra which she always wears but her neck has some blue-red mark till her collarbone where did she get that mark, I was thinking all this till everyone she again vanished in kitchen.
Maa smiled at me I also did her eyes went towards kitchen and shouted her name in an angry way I didn't like it she said " Shatakshi who tablet aur laptop kiska h aur couch par kya kar rha h dhyan nhi de skti kiska hain?" she was standing there listening mom doesn't know who's laptop and tablet they are she gulped and said fearfully say it why so fear " who mera hain kaam bhot tha toh yahi lekar aa gyi maaf kar dijiye ab nhi karongi " she said meekly her black big eyes , her dense eyelashes lid were down her hands were hands were tightly made a fist around her pallu " Paise kahan se aaye tumhare paas tablet kharidne ke apne baap se maanga tha kya? Humne tumhe bahar kaam karney ki ijazat di hain lekin ghar mein nhi bato paise kahan se aaye?" mom said angrily making her shudder she closed her eyes and siad " Maaf kar dijiye ab nhi karongi " " paise kahan se aaye?" mom shouted she looked at me once and averted she was about say but Rishabh cutted her between saying " Maine paise diye the bhabhi ko unko office ka kaam tha designs bnane ke liye|" my eyes snapped at him why did dhe ask him for money can't she ask me its not like I wouldn't give her I surely would her eyes also snapped and again looked at the floor " beta phir tumne humse pucha kyu nhi " mom said to rishabh " kuch btne ko kuch tha hi nhi tha unhe tablet ki zarorat thi who apne kisi dost se loan lene waali thi agar humne unhe yeh right diya hota ki who humse kuch mang skti toh yeh nobat kabhi nhi aati" Rishabh said looking at her and stood up and went away Mom seething from anger said to her " shatakshi mere kamre mein aana dupahare mein " and stood up and left in her room all this while everyone was silently having their breakfast not caring about her all of them also left she immediately took her laptop and tablet and went into our room I followed her, she put her tablet and laptop drawer and went in the washroom, I wanna to talk to her, after some
20 minutes she came to her eyes were red she cried I stood up to talk to her but her phone rang she talked and went away.
Around 3 hrs later she came back into the room she looked different where did she go?
I stood up and went to her, her eyes were looking redder than before somethings was very wrong she again tried to dodge me but I held her wrist I looked at her eyes our eyes met and asked " What happened? Where did you go ?" "Nothing " she said looking downwards and tried to free her self but I tightened my hold and pulled her to me our chest touched I held her waist tightening my hold that’s when I noticed her right cheeks looked red her neck has some marks too I touched her cheeks she hissed I slowly caressed her cheeks her breathe is uneven she can't breathe her eyes are getting drowsy I held her and made her sit on the couch her chest heaving her fingers are making scratches on her palm held her hand and asked " what is happening to you shatakshi stay with me breathe with me " " Vikram vikram save me plz.. I can't take this anymore plz.. Its hurting so much plz.. Save me " she said breaking repeating the same lines What should I do Rishabh Yes I should call him he must know something I called him he panicked and came in our room I hurriedly opened the door but shatakshi stood up and started removing her saree pallu and screamed " VIKRAM VIKRAM SAVE ME O GOD SAVE ME PLZ THEY ARE COMING REMOVE THEM AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.." I went to her put her pallu back she collapsed I held her in my arms on couch Rishabh saw everything and went into her drawer finding something he came to her with some pills and put it in her mouth she went completely unconscious.
