I walked out into the night, my hands trembling, heart shattering into pieces I didn't know how to pick up.
The world around me blurred — the rain, the neon lights, the sounds of the city — everything became nothing compared to the emptiness that Vaishali left in me.
Divorce papers. My wife... My Vaishu... She had signed them.
Meant to protect someone? Meant to keep me safe? I didn't know.
My mind refused to accept it. I couldn't. I wouldn't.
I stumbled toward the car, each step heavier than the last. The streets were slick with rain, reflections of the city flickering in puddles.
My hands gripped the steering wheel so hard I could feel the bones of my fingers strain.
No... this isn't real. She can't leave me like this. She wouldn't. She can't.
I pressed the accelerator, the engine roaring beneath me, the tires skidding dangerously. A car swerved in front of me — I barely missed it.
My vision tunneled, adrenaline and pain coiling together in my chest.
Vaishali... my life... how can she just—how could she?
I drove like a man possessed, barely noticing the speed, the rain blurring everything around me. Every street, every turn, every traffic signal became insignificant.
I had no one else to go to. My home? Nani would ask where she was. And I wouldn't have an answer.
No one could tell me what she was thinking. No one but Aravind.
He was the last person she spoke to. The only one who knew the edge she had walked before leaving with Santhos.
I needed him. I needed to know why.
The car skidded again, tires squealing on wet asphalt.
I cursed under my breath, barely keeping control. My knuckles whitened around the steering wheel.
Vaishu... what are you thinking? Why would you do this?
The city lights blurred past me, each one a stabbing reminder that she was out there somewhere — in danger, in someone else's hands, making decisions that could destroy us both.
I won't believe it. She wouldn't betray me.
Something's wrong. There has to be something I don't know...
I reached her father's house, slammed the car door open, and ran toward the entrance like a man running from death itself. Aravind was the only one who could guide me, the only one who could give me a fragment of the truth I so desperately needed.
