Chapter 21- His miserable childhood
Chapter 21- His miserable childhood
Abhinav's p.o.v
It's early in the morning and I am sleeping on the bed comfortably. I wake up from my sleep and sat
back on the bed and saw myself wearing my night suit.
I remembered clearly that last night I became unconscious naked. Who dressed me?? "
Obviously devika" my subconscious said.
I am feeling a headache and my head is like spinning. I have to pour some cold water on my head. I
took a deep breath and rubbed my forehead to lessen the headache.
I am rubbing my forehead when I looked at the closet where Devika is doing her everyday job.
She is ironing my shirt and pant. I found my black coffee beside my bed as always. Obviously, she has
placed it here. After our marriage, I have made her my perfect doll who is doing everything as per my
wish.
Now, I am looking at her whole self intensely. She didn't notice me yet. She is too much engrossed in
her work.
Suddenly she started singing softly. A sweet smile formed on her lips. She looked sweeter when she
smiles. Looking at her smile I felt writhe in my heart. What the hell was that!! Why I felt like that!
I am looking at her with awe. Her soft melodious voice is reaching at my ear and I am feeling a
soothing type sensation. She is wearing a light green colour saree. Her fair skin tone is complimenting
with that colour. She is looking like a new leaf. Looking at her my headache is like just vanished in the
air.
" Isn't she beautiful?" the good Abhinav complimented."
"Indeed she is beautiful," I mentally said. A smile formed on my face. I can't believe I am smiling after
seeing her.
" Don't fall for her. Don't forget who is she! She is playing with your mind. First, she played with Raghav
then Arnav and now you. You are not in her heart. She wants Arnav or Raghav. This bitch has made
your brother mad after her. How can you forget that" the devil inside me reminded me.
Immediately the smile from my face got vanished. Now, I am looking at her with my expressionless
face.
Suddenly She noticed me and become startled. She stopped her singing and the smile from her face
has vanished. A fearful expression appeared on her face.
She ran towards me and asked with her usual afraid voice," Do you need anything?" Would I bring your
breakfast here?"
I can see her breathing is becoming abnormal because of fear. Her body is slightly shaking.
I am looking at her from head to toe with my scrutinizing eyes. In her eyes, I can only find fear, hate
and loathing for me. There is no ounce of love and care for me. Ma was right. This type of girl can
never love their husband.
"After all what she should do! After torturing her how can you expect her to love you unconditionally"!!
The good Abhinav snapped at me.
" She is your wife. She should love you unconditionally whatever you do with her. Isn't it her duty? Ma
also loved Him even after bearing too much pain then why can't Devika," the devil inside me reminded
me.
He is right. It's her duty to love her husband. But she isn't doing her duty properly."
"Do you love her?" the good Abhinav asked.
" I don't know" I simply answered to my mind.
She is still standing in front of me for my order. I hold her hand and said dangerously," I am having a
headache. Message my head."
I saw her gulping down her saliva and with shaky hands, she started messaging my head. I closed my
eyes feeling her soft hands touches. I am sitting on the bed and she is standing in front of me
messaging my head. My face is almost touching her soft chest. I can sense her intoxicating scent. Her
sweet smell is arousing my inner beast.
I took one of her hand and looked at it carefully. Her hand is so soft and delicate. I said slightly kissing
her one hand," Your hands are so beautiful and soft".
She didn't say anything. She is continuing the message with her another hand. I am admiring her hand
when I remembered Raghav.
He might have touched those soft hand before me. Bloody bastard!! And this bitch had also given him
her approval.
Whenever I remember those photos where she was sleeping on that bastard's embrace my blood get
boiled with raw anger. Thinking that Raghav had also touched her hand my anger rose its peak.
She is still messaging my head with her another hand. I said putting too much pressure on her other
hand, "That Raghav had touched your hand!!! You also let him hold your hand. Tell me slut, how deep
was your relationship with him?
She is hissing in pain and cried loudly," what are you talking about? Raghav never touched me. You
are insane. Leave my hand. It's paining"
This time I stood up from my bed. I hold a chunk of her hair and said lowering my voice," Too much
hate for me huh!! Why!! Shouldn't you love me unconditionally? Isn't it your duty?
" you can't force someone to love you. After torturing me so much how can you expect me to love you?
You are a psycho. You need doctor," She snapped at me.
" You have gotten your tongue back huh!! Should I again show you what can I do to you," I said
dangerously.
Hearing me she becomes paled and cried trying very hard to free herself from me," Please, I will do
whatever you say. But don't beat me with your belt".
" Then, love me unconditionally. Tell me the words. Tell me quickly," I told her with my dominating voice.
" I love you, Abhinav. I am your doll. I only belong to you". She said hurriedly with one go..
" You will love me unconditionally whatever I do to you. Always obey me and will never talk back. Is that
clear? I asked her loosening my grip from her hand.
" I will do whatever you say," she said crying.
" Good, let's go to the washroom. You will help me in the shower," I ordered her grabbing her waist
tightly. She started wriggling but my one threatening look is enough for her to stop wriggling.
Like an obedient wife, she helped me in the shower and there I have taken her another time. She
always feels so good. The whole time when I was fucking her I made her say only only thing," I love
you, Abhinav"
She will love me. She has to. I will make her admit that she loves me. It's her duty to love me. I can't let
her be like her mother. She isn't any Gupta anymore. She is now an Agnihotri. My wife. She has to love
me!!!
Author's p.o.v
Ruhani ma is praying sitting on a thin mattress. She didn't notice that someone has entered into her
room silently.
Ruhani ma completed her prayer and when she turned her back she saw Devika who is standing in
front of the door.
Seeing her Ruhani ma smiled and said," Why are you standing there? Come here. Sit with me on the
bed"
Devika smiled back and with baby steps, she walked to Ruhani ma. Ruhani ma is already sitting on the
bed and now she gestured Devika to sit beside her.
Devika sat beside her and Ruhani ma noticed Devika's bruised hand which was done by Abhinav
today.
Ruhani ma hold Devika's hand and said," Abhi has again hurt you! What's wrong with him.! He was not
like that!! I have to talk with him.
Devika again pleaded her not to say anything to Abhinav and Ruhani ma has to again agree with
devika.
Suddenly Devika asked," Ruhani ma, can I ask you something?
" Of course, dear. Tell me what do you want to know? Ruhani ma asked giving her a motherly smile.
Devika asked hesitantly," Ruhani ma, where were you? I mean where you lived before coming here?
Ruhani ma smiled and said, "Well dear, I am a social worker. I have many Orphanage, old age home
and woman's Organization all over the country. I have to take care of them always. That's why
maximum time I have to be out of city. Moreover, I prefer living in my own house which is in another
city. I don't come here often. After all, my all children are now grown up and have their own life"
Devika is listening to her carefully. The more she is knowing Ruhani ma the more she felt respect for
her.
Devika again asked, "Ruhani ma, can I ask you another question? Please, don't say no to me"
" You can ask me, dear. I am also your ma. Tell me, what do you want to know? Ruhani ma asked.
" All the Agnihotri siblings are Hindu and you are a Muslim. Why do they call you Ma? Devika finally
asked the question which was bothering her.
Ruhani ma chuckled and said, " I was wondering why didn't you ask me this question before. Finally,
you have asked me."
Devika only gave her a slight smile.
Then Ruhani ma started saying," Abhinav was only 15 years old when my husband brought him to our
house. When Abhinav took his first step in my house he was so skinny with broken hands and feet.
From where my husband brought him and who is his real parents, my husband never told me and
Abhinav also didn't share with me anything.
At that time, a few days ago I had lost my son in an accident. My son was also 15 years old. I was
totally broken and mourning continuously for my son. I was totally devastated. And When my husband
brought Abhinav, seeing him I felt like I have found my lost son again. I was feeling very happy and
thanked Allah for giving back my son.
Moreover seeing Abhinav my heart cried out in pain. When he first came, his face was totally swollen,
his hands and feet were broken. I have seen beating marks on his body. He was only wearing a half
pant at that time. His tanned skin was bruised. Moreover, he was badly injured. His condition was so
bad that he wasn't able to talk properly. We treated him with the utmost care.
When Abhinav became stable, he informed me that he has other siblings who are also suffering out
there because of hunger and lack of proper care. Then I had taken them also into my house.
At that time Abhinav was 15 years old, Arnav was 10 years old, Avantika was 9 years old and Arushi
was just 6 years old. Seeing their condition I couldn't hold back my tears anymore. Those small
children were living under a tree without any food and shelter. Even they didn't have any clothes on
their body.
I took them to my house and took care of them. As my husband was a reputable businessman, he
never complained about those little children's expenses. Moreover, he also loved them like his own
children. After one year of their living with us, we tried to give them our surname. But Abhinav didn't
agree. We also didn't force them to change their religion and surname. I had given them proper
education, shelter, food and most importantly love. I have raised them with my own hands. They are
my children. That's why they call me ma. Specially Arnav, Avantika and Arushi are very close to me. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Abhinav was always a responsible son. Maximum time he used to spend his time with my husband at
his works. My husband wanted to make Abhinav his heir as I wasn't able to conceive again. But do you
know what Abhinav said?
Ruhani ma asked and devika nodded her head in negative. She also wants to know about Abhinav's
childhood.
Abhinav said," You both have given us new life that's why you both are like God for us. But I can't be
your heir. If I want to be successful than I will be successful with my own hard work," Ruhani ma said
proudly.
Then she again said, "This Agnihotri empire is totally established by Abhinav, my husband just helped
him as a mentor.
I think now you are understanding why they are Hindu and I am Muslim. And why they call me ma. I am
proud of my son Abhinav, "Ruhani ma said and a proud smile is clearly visible on her face.
Devika listened Ruhani ma's every word carefully and can't believe Abhinav's childhood was that
horrible.
She is feeling bad for all Agnihotri siblings. Unknowingly she is crying for them. She is always being a
soft-hearted girl. She can't believe that she is crying for her tormentor. Moreover, she can't believe that
this beast is the same Abhinav whom Ruhani ma is talking about.
Then Devika again asked," But, Ruhani ma who are their real parents? Where they lived before
coming to your home? Do you know anything?
"I don't know about this matter, dear. Abhinav didn't say me anything about this matter. Whenever I had
asked him about his real parents I have only found pain and hurt in his eyes. That's why I didn't ask him
anything. His other siblings don't even know their real parent's name properly,"
Ruhani ma said with a sad expression.
Devika also saw the pain in Abhinav's eyes whenever he has remembered his mother. Devika said,"
thanks Ruhani ma for sharing everything with me. "
" Don't thank me, dear. It's your right to know about your husband's family," Ruhani ma said smilingly.
Devika sighed and thought in her mind," A monster husband. Who doesn't know anything except for
beating me, humiliating me and raping me".
" What are you thinking, dear? Ruhani ma asked devika.
"Nothing ma, I have to go. I have to prepare lunch also," saying that devika started leaving the room.
But she halted and turned at Ruhani ma. She asked curiously," By the way, Ruhani ma, what's your
husband's name? I want to know that generous man's name who helped Abhinav?"
Ruhani ma said with a sad expression, " His name is Usman Sheikh. He is no more in this world".
Devika said sorry for Ruhani ma's loss. Ruhani ma said with a sad smile," It's ok. We all have to leave
this world one day".
Devika just nodded her head and taking a deep breath she left the room.
After coming out from the room She is thinking now," Is it the same Usman Sheikh whom people feared
the most. I had heard about him. He is an underworld don. But Ruhani ma said her husband was a
businessman. Maybe he is another usman seikh. Ruhani ma can never be any underworld don's wife.
After all, she is so generous. Maybe I am thinking too much ".
Devika didn't pressurize her brain anymore and started making lunch.
On the other hand, Ruhani ma is saying mentally, " Abhi, don't hurt this poor child. She is a gem. Only
looking at her face anyone will fall in love with her. She is a very good and kind-hearted girl. I don't
understand how can you hurt such an innocent child. Hey, Allah protect this poor child from Abhinav's
wrath"
At night time
Ruhani ma has told devika to make some kheer( Indian dessert) for everyone. Especially for Abhinav.
He loves kheer a lot. Devika is loathing her fate that she has to prepare food for her torturer. The whole
day she felt pity for All Agnihotri siblings. But she is also cursing this beast Abhinav.
She is making kheer and thinking about her mother. It's almost one month since she met her and talk
with her. She is missing her siblings a lot.
Abhinav didn't give her any permission to talk with them. Abhinav is so cruel to her that he has made
herself to cut all ties with her friends also. He didn't give her any permission to leave this house. He
said that he is providing everything for her in this house. So, there is no need for her to go out.
Moreover, he has completely caged her.
She is now a full-time puppet wife who is earning humiliation every day from her husband. Her dreams
of being successful are now already shattered into pieces. In this house, she has every luxurious
facility but no respect. She is cursing that day when Abhinav put vermilion on her head.
Now, She has almost done with her cooking. She is washing the dishes when She noticed that some
kheer has fallen on her saree making it dirty. So, she decided to change the saree. She left the kitchen
putting a lid on the kheer.
She is unaware of the fact that after her leaving, someone has mixed something in that kheer which
Devika prepared for everyone.
