Samaira rushed behind Ashley who sobbed running towards the cafeteria, reaching at a lonely place she collapsed on her knees, her heart ached remembering Siddharth's compliment, she just wanted to engulf him tighter and bury herself in him hiding and forgetting all the life mess, but fate only made her suffer, keeping hand on her fast beating heart she bursted into tears more, Samaira stood behind, she didn't knew any of this mess, she stared the two pendants in her hand as a lone tear dropped her palm, her gaze shifted towards Ashley who suddenly stiffened realizing the pendant was lost, she panicked breathing heavily getting on her feet as she began to search around, the pendant was hell precious for her, loosing it was just another dreadful nightmare for her, her gaze still didn't caught Samaira who walked near her,
"Where's it! " She muttered tensed as more tears leaked out when a hand holding same two pendants caught her gaze, lifting her head up she saw Samaira standing with a hurtful perplexed expression, her cheeks tear stained,
"Searching for this? " She eyed towards the pendant as Ashley gulped wiping her tears off
"You-"
"It entangled with mine's when you were having panic attack" She replied in a emotionless tone
~~~~~~~
Avneet exhaled shakily as her hand dropped , it was the report, the report that Siddharth's blood matched with the unknown blood stain obtained from the crime site, she ruffled her hair annoyed as tears cupped her eyes ready to leak out, walking towards the car she settled inside closing the door with a thud, she screamed frustrated and defeated throwing the paper in anger, tears atlast made their way out
~~~~~~~
" Sid, it was me... I needed that pendrive and you were at head position... " Rohan replied guilty looking down feeling Siddharth's intense gaze
(Ignore the sunglasses)
"Ashley isn't your daughter?! " Siddharth asked confused, his heart throbbing ready to burst out
"No...she's your daughter...I abducted your daughter.. "He receited the entire incident to him not looking at him and within seconds Siddharth marched towards him as he held his collar tight slamming him on the bed, innumerable tears leaking out his eyes, hearing the pain his daughter suffered, the torment his family went through
" Are you even a fucking human being! " He seethed angry , his hands gripping his collar tight
Rohan sobbed holding his hands in his which were ready to strangled him to death,
"I know I'm pathetic, but..please.. Please for the last time just help me! " He pleaded helpless, Siddharth's jaw clenched, his grip around tightened realizing he felt betrayed for a pathetic devil human who used his daughter miserably,who tortured her for years,who was ready to kill her,
"No way.. No way " He flared furious, innumerable tears leaking out
"All this year's I kept blaming myself for her death then for her dissappearance, you trapped my daughter in your demonic hell and you expect help from me! You know what my family suffered because of you! " He raged, Rohan gritted his teeth in anger jerking his hands away
"If you would have helped me that time none of this would have happened! " Rohan yelled back
"Don't you dare bring that topic back " Siddharth lashed
"Why? It hurts! Or still the betrayal scar isn't healed" Rohan chuckled sarcastically
Siddharth sighed defeated, he was correct, there was no point in arguing back,
"I know I'm pathetic, monstrous and selfish.. I am your culprit.. I accept " Rohan eyes flustered towards him guilty
"But I don't want that psychopath to harm Amaira... She has nothing to do with this! " Siddharth gazed him back breathing heavily, tears dried up
"Please... Let's fight together! " Rohan pleaded hopefully
With Avneet
It was evening by now, she entered in the silent mansion, lights dozed off,
"Just like my life! " She chuckled internally switching on the lights up, the night was silent, only Siddharth and Avneet were gonna be alone that night, he wasn't home yet, she was least concerned now about his whereabouts, it didn't mattered her anymore, she was hurt, precisely her soul crushed, he kept hiding facts from her this wasn't a thing to ignore anymore, to clear her messed mind and her little swollen face because of the tears she walked towards the bathroom to have a warm, refreshing bath,
after having a bath for approximately 20 minutes, she walked out the bathroom drying her hair with the towel, she felt relieved and much more refreshed, but still her mind was messed with thoughts which didn't let her to concentrate, wearing her comfy pajamas and tee, she walked downstairs to prepare the food, she wanted to clear her mind, cooking was her hobby, she loved trying new dishes, wearing her apron she opened the fridge looking for ingredients,
Play song for little emotional blunder 🥺
It was 9 by now, Siddharth wasn't back still which concerned her a little, she tossed the fried mushrooms in the curry as she mixed them together, taking a spoonful she tasted, her mind still was stucked in thoughts, the more hard she was trying to free herself the more thoughts strangled her, the salt was a little less, she exhaled shakily frustrated as she walked towards the cabinet to grab the Salt jar, it was kept on the upper shelve, she tiptoed trying to get the jar when she misbalanced and the jar crashed on the floor, glasses shattering into pieces as salt spilled all over,
She exhaled shakily rubbing her temple as she gazed the shattered salt and atlast she broke, tears made their way out as she slid down cuddling her knees, ruffling her hair frustrated, she sobbed devastated, a feeling of loneliness engulfing her as she buried her head cuddling to her knees tightly,
"I can't handle this anymore.. I need you! " She cried more , she realized to be precise, why Siddharth had kept hidden all this from her, why he chose silence instead of sharing the pain, it all came crashing to her now, she realized that it was a deadly lone tunnel with no hope, just a blind walk to uncover the piercing truth,
Just when her phone rang, she sniffled wiping her tears off as she picked the call up, It was Jannat,
"Hmm.. " Came her shaky broken voice
"Avu.. The hammer.. Fingerprints aren't of Siddharth! " Avneet's heart thumped, she felt her chest heaving up as a breathe of relief escaped,
"Y.. You sure? " Her voice encouraged
"Damn sure.. Reports negative" Avneet's eyes leaked more as tears of happiness and enlightenment escaped out, the phone dropped off her hand as she ran towards her room.
20 minutes later
Avneet picked her jacket up rushing out the mansion,
the sky pitch black, night gloomy, thunder clashed as clouds bursted pattering drops, it was raining heavily outside,
She cared less drenching in the rain drops she barged into her car,
Siddharth on the other side felt extremely devastated and frustrated, the crystal drops dripping him wet as he sobbed cuddling into his knees, he was at their happy place, the beach which was silent, only crashing thunders heard seemed to console him, just when he saw car lights blinking, clearing his haze he stood up when his gaze caught her
"No way.. " He needed her, but this seemed a dream, there was no way of her trusting him again after the entire mess he created
Avneet stepped out the car,the rain drizzling her wet, her shoulders slumped as her gaze atlast caught him, she had a talk with Tanisha who receited the entire event to her, about Rohan confessing to Siddharth ,she knew loneliness would strangle him, the only place he could be was theirs,
he stood staring her bewildered,
water dripping his messy hair, veins and muscles flexed, he looked devastated and frustrated, seemed as if he wanted to quit everything,
Avneet's eyes immediately glistened with tears seeing his state,
"I'm not gonna let you walk alone this time! "
Taking small steps towards him,she exhaled sharply atlast facing him, his eyes already leaking, even though he was completely drenched in rain, his tears still prominent, exhaling shakily she cupped his face pulling him closer, loosing herself completely she wrapped her arms around his neck atlast touching her soft lips on his, Siddharth stiffened feeling her touch, pecking his lips she stared his hazel orbs.
"I.. I knew about Amaira.. " Avneet confessed not looking in his eyes, she stared his chest realizing the pain, the piercing truth sucking her blood each passing day.
"That day at Greenville Cafe, I met Tanisha who told me about the entire mess our daughter went through" She exhaled shakily, her voice breaking as tears cupped her eyes, Siddharth just listened to shock to react,
"I felt as if I wasn't capable of dealing with your problems that was the reason why you kept hiding secrets from me but-"
Their eyes met atlast
His hazel orbs drenched in pool of guilt and loneliness whereas her chocolaty pool portraying her guilt, but more than this emotions conquered the love, the eyelock they shared rendered the same emotion,
"I need you "
"To deal with this fact that she's alive and not knowing about her condition, about her whereabouts nothing is more worse and extreme than knowing what happened with her and she's safe and alive now.. I.. I'm Sorry Siddharth for everything.. for blaming you.. Not trusting you " She broke atlast as tears leaked out, a wet chuckle escaped as Siddharth pulled her in a tight soothing protective hug, his arms squeezing her in his protective embrace whereas she sobbed miserably clutching his wet shirt in her small fists snuggling in his chest, in his embrace world stopped for her, there was no time, no wind, no rain, her mind was at peace
Finally she felt home.
But, the fate had it's plan, while she felt protected he sensed someone, a black hazy figure at a distance from them, Siddharth's eyes furrowed on the stalker, he knew something was wrong just when he realized, a sniper was targeted towards Avneet, he immediately twirled her shielding her in his tight embrace and within seconds, the trigger was pulled, a huge gunshot echoed as thunder crashed...
