**Rajiv's pov**My meeting was successful and I got a new assignment. I'm so happy. I was trying to call Bhoomi all the way to airport but strange ... She cut my call.. Was she so much angry with me? May be I hurt her too much.. I must apologize to her.I bought some gifts. A barbie doll for Aashi, a french perfume for shree(she loves dressing up from childhood) And a saree for bhoomi. She always looks beautiful but when I imagined her in this sky blue, black bordered saree, I felt a smile on my own lips.Only she can make me blush. I got some chocolates also. Tonight I'm gonna apologize and confess my feelings once again to her. Yeah! I know she loves me too ..her drunken disaster said it all. I just want to hear it from her, I'm so excited.I boarded my flight and in the evening I was back in my city.I climbed into the car waiting for me.BHOOMI HERE I COME.....
The whole way..my heart was racing ... I was practicing how to apologize to her. Meanwhile the driver enjoyed my little drama session.I felt embarrassed.. Soon the car stopped in front of my house. I walked in with my luggage in my hands.Aashi came running to me as soon as I entered the house."Papa..." She cried in happiness."Awww... My princess.. " I lifted her up in my arms and kissed her forehead but to my shock I saw a bandage on her forehead."Yeh kya hua beta? Kese lagi?" I asked her."Woh papa..." She was about to say when Shreya entered ."Aashi... Shut up and go inside" she shouted... Her words scared the little girl and she ran into her room upstairs."Shree ..what's this? Bichari ko kyu daanta? Aur woh chot kese lagi usse?" I asked a bit annoyed by her behaviour."Kuch nahi aise hi khelte khelte gir gayi..." She tried to avoid eye contact..and I knew at once that she was lying.I held her shoulders and turned her to face me."You are lying shree..speak the truth.." I demanded."Aisa kuch nahi hai..." She tried to hold her tears back."Answer me shreya..." I shouted .
"Bhoomi ne usse dhakka diya aur usko chot lag gayi.." She spoke out and tears started to flow.I was shocked..... Bhoomi would never do that... She cannot harm a innocent little kid...."Nahi.. Bhoomi would never do such a thing" I shouted."Isliye mein tumhe nahi bataana chahti thi ... I know you would never believe me.." She was crying bitterly.But I ignored her tear."I don't know why you are doing this shreya... But please don't spoil my Bhoomi's reputation by putting such false allegations on her.."I made my way to my room and closed the door .I started to call Bhoomi once again but she disconnected it again. Damn!! I threw my cellphone on the ground and it broke into many pieces.After a few moments of frustration, I went to take a bath. I opened the cupboard to take out my kurta.But what I saw was like a lightening bolt striking my head.There were only my clothes in the cupboard.. None of Bhoomi's clothes were there."Shreya...." I called out.She came running to me."Bhoomi kahan hai...??" I asked in furious tone."Woh..woh..." She was stammering."Answer me...where is Bhoomi??" I spoke at my highest pitch."She left... Jab woh jaa rahi thi tab humne usse rokne ki koshish ki toh usne Aashi ko dhakka diya aur usko lag gayi..." She explained."Woh esa kyu karegi??" I asked in surprise."Pata nahi.. Par bol rahi thi ki ab woh tumhare saath nahi rehna chahti.. She is fed up.."I was numb.... How can she do this to me?? No... No... It can't be true. Chote se mazak ke liye Bhoomi itna bada kadam kese utha sakti hai?? I need to talk to her.I rushed into my room and got into my formal clothes. Grabbing my car keys from the mantle piece... I rushed out to the garage.But shreya.. Blocked my way."Out of my way... Mein abhi Bhoomi se milne jaunga.." I pushed her aside."Raju are you out of your mind??raat ke 11 baj rahe hai...Tum itni raat ko drive karke kaise jaoge??you are not in a good state..." She held my wrist."Mujhe jaana hai...she can't leave me like this.." I freed myself and started to walk again."Raju... Tumhe Aashi ki kasam... Ruk jao.." I stopped at once."Please raju... Try to understand... Its not safe to drive at this hour aur Bhoomi toh so rahi hogi abhi.... Kal subah chale jaana..now go and take rest.." Shreya convinced me at last.I made my way towards my room and closed the door.I felt as if my world has ended... Tears were ready to come out of my eyes.Why Bhoomi? Why did you do this to me? My heart pained.I threw the pillows and mattress on the floor and cried my heart out. I was not going to let her go this time.I fell asleep on the white tiled floor itself. The ringing of the door bell broke my sleep. I looked at the wall clock.. It was 8 o' clock in the morning. Who came such early in the morning? I wondered. May be Bhoomi came back.. This thought filled me with new energy and rushed downstairs , to the main door with naked feet.I opened the door with a smile on my face. But my smile faded away as I saw the postman at the doorway."Sir .. Post.." He said.I received the post and signed his register. I closed the door and turned to open the envelope.It had only my address.I opened it and found some papers. I read the header of the paper .."DIVORCE AGREEMENT"It had Bhoomi's signature on it.I felt weak on my legs and sunk on the sofa.I found another paper in between these. It was a letter from Bhoomi.'Rajiv
I never wanted to marry you.You knew it from the beginning. This marriage was forced on me. I know you are not a bad guy but you are not the one meant for me. I'm fed up with this drama.Let's end this. Sign these papers and never show your face to me again... If you ever had true feelings for me. Give some peace to me. I never loved you nor will ever do.No hard feelings ....all the best for your future..-Bhoomi'
