I Will Never Be Yours

Chapter 52

'Americano with cream... I know, now you go... Shoo... ' Sameer teased her

Ananya narrowed her eyes at him, and hit him playfully, before walking towards the washroom and Sameer summoned the waiter

10 minutes later

Ananya and Sameer were chatting about random stuff, about their work and life in the city

'You know, when Maa was of my age, she lived in this city fo,  I guess 2 years....' Ananya said

'Yeah, mom told me about it... And I guess you like rains, as your mother too... ' Sameer said

'Eww no...!  I hate rains, I hate that damp smell and all that mud and puddles, but my brothers love rain... Vansh bhai goes crazy when it rains for the first time... ' Ananya chuckled

'Yash hates rains too... That's why he didn't agree when I offered him to come with me here...' Sameer said

'How is Yash's behavior towards you...? I mean I heard he is very rude and saw how he behaved with Aayan that day... ' Ananya said

'Yash is a sweetheart Ananya, he loves me like any brother loves his brother, his behavior towards Aayan is all because of my father... He told him all bad things about Jai uncle and his children, which made him hate his half siblings... But once he gets to know the truth, he will love Aayan and Nitaara di... Trust me... ' Sameer smiled

'How can you be so positive about everything...?' Ananya asked amused

'Well it's inherited, My mother was like me.... Or I should rather say I am like her.... ' Sameer chuckled

'Do you miss your mother...?' Ananya asked softly

'Everyday, I always talk to her picture before going to sleep... ' Sameer smiled

'I am sorry for asking, but is Priyanka aunty's behavior towards you not good ?' Ananya asked

'Absolutely not Ananya, she loves me, like her own kid... Not every step mothers are evil... ' Sameer laughed

'You are weird you know, How can you love her, if she was the reason behind your mother's...um... ' She stopped in between but she realized that she already said too much

Sameer's expression stiffened, but then he composed himself and took a deep breath

'Not many people know this, but Priyanka mom and my father's affair was not the reason for my mother's suicide... ' he said sadly

'I am sorry Sameer, I didn't mean to remind you all that, you don't have to talk about it....' Ananya said feeling guilty

'No it's fine, you should know this, Priyanka mom is not a home breaker... ' Sameer began and Ananya nodded him to continue

'My mom was diagnosed with stage four lung cancer, and the cancer was slowly spreading all over her body, including her brain... ' Sameer said tears filling his eyes and Ananya held his hands tightly

'Dad tried everything to save her, and Priyanka mom was with us all the time, leaving her own family behind... My mom would sometimes forget me and call me as Priyanka mom's son... She was tired of all the painful treatment, we were very worried about her, I would cry almost every night and beg to god to cure her soon...' Sameer sighed

'One day, when she couldn't see my and my father's misery, she drugged herself with high dose of sleeping pills... She was rushed to hospital, but they couldn't save her... That was the same time, when Jai uncle came to know about My current parents relationship....' Sameer said, wiping his tears
