At midnight Rajveer sat on the couch with a mess.
"He betrayed me, he destroyed me, He used me, Veer Bhai. I won't be able to live like this. Let me die"
Those words were again echoing in his mind as he looked at the picture of his and Mrunali where he was making two ponies with her hairs.
Then his gaze fell on his wife's figure who was laying on the bed. He was unable to hurt her more as she was already making him weak.
⋇✦⋇
The sunrays fell over her figure as she scrunched her eyes getting the heavy light. She streched her arms trying to get up from the bed. Her head was still heavy as she placed her fingers on her forehead holding it tightly.
Divya slowly opened her eyes and the first thing which came infront of her vision was him, her husband.
"How are you feeling now?"
Rajveer asked shifting closer to her as she was shocked hearing him. Did he just ask about her health whom he wanted to destroy in every means? Did he stop his revenge game or he was planning something else?
"A__Abhi hum t__thik hai! (I'm alright now)"
Saying so, she was going to get up but he stopped her holding her shoulders as she looked at him with confusing eyes.
"Where are you going?"
"It's your coffee time"
She stammered lowering her eyes.
"You don't have to worry about these things. You need rest now!"
He stated while adjusting her back with a pillow. His words made her perplexed as she remained gazing at him.
"Bring something healthy for your madam!"
Rajveer ordered as in a minute a worker came with a bowl of soup. He took it in his hands and forwarded a spoon full of soup near her mouth. Divya who didn't have any idea what exactly was happening, just ate it silently without making any noise. She was extremely tired and exhausted for making any sound.
As soon as she completed eating Rajveer held the glass of water near her mouth and made her drink the water. Then he gave her the medicine and wiped her face with a tissue. In this whole process Divya was just looking at him with amusement. Was she dreaming or it was real?
He was going to get up when she tugged his wrist as he turned back.
"Why?"
Her eyes were staring at his eyeballs with innumerable questions trying to find their answers but removing his hand from her he left the room avoiding her gaze.
Divya was confused with his sudden changed behaviour. In one hand, he was giving her pain and in another hand, he was healing her wounds.
'What actually did he want?'
⋇✦⋇
"Didn't I tell you that don't work! Do you want to hear my scoldings again?"
Rajveer gritted his teeth while lifting her up in his arms who was just going to the kitchen.
"Y__You told m__me, not to c__come in your r__room too!"
She stammered while hanging from his neck looking at him.
"When I say something good for you, you won't listen but if I behave rudely with you, you'll listen surely! Why?
Divya glaced at him hearing his accusations. Was he going crazy again?
"Now stay here and keep quiet!"
He again made her sit on the bed.
"Veer Ji!"
"Hmm?"
"Will you mind, if I ask you something?"
Divya asked gathering some courage as he shook his head in negation.
"W__Why are y__you doing a__all this!"
"And why you stammer all the time while talking with me? Don't you know how to talk in one line without giving a pause?"
He asked back twisting her question as she lowered her eyes.
"If you need something then call me. I'm in study. I've some works there!"
He stated politely and left not before glancing at her once.
She was shocked, confused, amazed and surprised. She couldn't identify what was his true self. The one which she had seen from her marriage or the one which she was seeing today.
⋇✦⋇
Everything was going normal in these days. Rajveer wasn't talking with her much but also not behaving rudely with her.
They were maintaining a good distance between them. She used to remain busy in her own world while talking and gossiping with the workers in the mansion to pass her boredom while he used to remain busy in his office works.
"What happened, madam?"
One of a worker asked seeing Divya tensed with something. She was scaring to death to talk with Rajveer about the matter as well as she wasn't getting any other option.
"Ji, I need help. Can you help me?"
"Why not, ma'am?"
"Can you give me your mobile please? I've to make a call to my brother. I don't have any mobile. The one which I had before marriage was broken"
She remembered the day when Rajveer angrily broke her mobile into pieces as she was going to make a call to Rishabh.
"But ma'am, if Saheb gets to know about this, he won't leave me alive as well as you"
"I know, but it's really important for me! Please help!"
Divya requested with teary eyes as she gave her mobile to her.
"Don't cry, ma'am. Take it and talk to your brother"
Taking the mobile she dialled her brother's number as he picked it up.
"H__Hello, Bhaiya?"
Divya asked on the call.
"Divu, are you okay?"
She felt little relaxed hearing his voice after a long period of time as tears rolled down from her eyes.
"Divu? What happened? Why are you crying? Did he do something? Please tell me? Don't hide anything from your brother!"
Rishabh asked from other side being worried for his little sister.
"Nothing Bhaiya, I'm fine!"
"I know, you're lying! You can never be fine with that bastard. I know, he has done something to you. Just tell me what he did, I'll bring you here. You don't have to stay with that bastard anymore!"
"Nothing like this, Bhaiya! Believe me, I'm good. I've called you for another reason!"
"What tell me?"
"Bhaiya, I__"
Her words left at middle seeing the person standing infront of her who was none other than her husband, Rajveer Singh Rathore!
"Hello, Hello Divu? What happened hello? Are you listening?"
From other side Rishabh was shouting on the call but she couldn't speak a word further as fear started dancing in her heart. She could see his eyes were blood coated red with which he was shooting death glares to her.
Divya slowly cut the call and lowered her eyelashes waiting for the consequences.
"In whose permission, you called him again?"
Rajveer asked with his angry tone.
"I__I__"
"ANSWER ME, DAMN IT!"
He screamed loudly making her flinch.
"I__I'm sorry!"
"DIDN'T I TELL YOU REPEATEDLY, DON'T YOU DARE TRY TO TALK WITH HIM EVER?"
"A__Actually__"
"SPEAK UP! SPEAK UP!"
"I need some money for my college fees. I wanna go to college again"
She added timidly and didn't dare to look up at him not knowing about his further reactions.
"So, you wanna study?"
He asked with little softness this time as she nodded her head slightly.
"Okay, you can join your college from tomorrow. I'll drop you while going to my office and my driver will take you after your college"
"I can go alone"
"Do you want me to cancel the plan?"
"Ji?"
Divya asked shockingly.
"Yeah, if you don't then do it what I'm saying! Now go and prepare everything for tomorrow!"
Rajveer said as she rushed towards her room while smiling like a mad.
