Come Away With Me

1|Sweet Woman

Hola!
Here's another story, which I've posted in India Forums, long back!
(No need to go there. Hehe. You can't find the updates anymore.)
I'd complete the story here and wouldn't remove it. Trust me🙈

○Basic storyline is copied from the show Yeh Hai Mohabbatein, but plotted with some twists. Some Ekta-kind-of drama could happen, somewhere. The marriage? The separation? Anywhere 😄 I wouldn't make you insane like her though.

○Raman's character could be bitchy throughout. He could be...um, what? Ridiculous? Yeah, kind of. So be cautious.

Title courtesy Norah Jones' song Come Away With Me, from her 2002 album with the same title ✔

There could be mature content to some point. However, not that vulgar to tag it a mature story, I guess 🙈🙉🙊

Hope you'd enjoy reading and leave your feedbacks ♡

Chapter-1

"It's Ruhi's custody, bhai. They need you there. You got to go and be with them until we get back Ruhi, legally. After all, Ruhi loves to be with us. She misses you. She loves you, bhai. She really does. If you'd go and just smile at her, things are going to be more than perfect. Please bhai, it's been a long time. I know, you don't want to lose her. It's about her life too. Ashok could be a rich lover or maybe a good husband for Shagun but our Ruhi's father could only be you. Don't let him snatch your fatherhood. Ruhi means to be yours, ours. I hope you understand bhai..."

Mihir's words rang in his head when the car drove towards his flat where his parents along with his siblings were living, from when he has reserved to look after (just) his business. It was because of him that his sister, Simran has to stay back home, to see to their parents. What could be the world talking about her? He did not think about it until when the car braked in front of the entrance, as his new driver asked directions to his boss's own house from the security guard, because he feared he would blast him if he seeks instructions by turning back to him; he seemed still and upset.

He had had every detail of his daughter intact in his mind, as they had met (on video calls) often, only when his mother would try emotional thingy, making him helpless to behold her, only to fall back into the memory lane of betrayal and pain. He should be fighting the demons of insecurity and bringing up his daughter but he needed time. From when Ruhi started talking, he did not stay with her. The word maa from her hurt him, rather than agitating. When she needed her, she did not turn up, but now when his daughter has come adapting to her rude papa and his disguised love and care, she has taken her away from him; it hurt him gravely because lately, he has started spending time with her in real. He wanted to come back but before he could, he lost her, not completely though.

Tears seeped down his eyes, as he looked out of the car window, upwards to his apartment where once he used to find solace. After few months of his one-day visits, he is going to stay there, until when? He did not know how he is going to clear this mess and go back to the shell. He felt like something is pulling him from the disposition of escapism, to live his life to the fulsome. He hates such fresh feelings, but if this were all about his family and their happiness, he would not mind going with the flow; he has taken enough time to prepare his mind for a second chance. Now what he wanted was his family, his daughter. He would not let her take away his hidden treasure once again. The first time, it was she herself, which was not hidden, but this time, he would prefer to hide what he treasures; it was Ruhi Bhalla and he knew, no woman is going to be in the role! He could never be treasuring a woman in this lifetime!
