Chapter-17

Yes, it was indeed she thought because 2 days enough drama she had gone through, she went back to her mother's house and told them but instead they did not support her, she felt miserable to think she really loved him and felt he was the only true guy for her. She did call his neighbour' phone the next day he came on the line but he was still angry with her, but it wasn't her faults why does she always have to be punished for no reasons.

She kept trying the next day then the next but he stopped totally talking to her, finally, she had to give up and focused on her job when she told her boss the uncle he was furious with her he knew her story from the beginning he had already warned her about these people they come to India to study then catch an Indian girl, give her a kid and once their education is finished they back at their hometown and never returned but beauty trusted this man again, Her uncle helped her and the kids.

A couple of months had gone and one day she received a call from Irfan she had still not forgotten him she stilled loved him very deeply. He had invited her to his apartment that day she could not resist seeing him, she waited for him for so long and by now she hoped he has regretted during her absence. She got ready in the evening and left, he was waiting for her ready dressed she rang the doorbell the door opened, he came and greeted her with a bouquet of flowers and asked her to come in.

She walked in looking very beautiful, her hair had grown long she had been working out those couple of months she looked very fit he did not believe his eyes he kept admiring her running his finger's down her hair he looked at her and said: "you look more beautiful now".

The doorbell rang and he opened it, it came to a very fair tall beautiful middle-aged lady as she walked in Irfan introduced her to "beauty this is my mom a professor in Iran". They both greeted each other. The lady was not pleased with beauty she spoke to her son and he translated the language in English to beauty.

She was not pleased with beauty but because this was her son choice she said nothing, for now, beauty felt the cold sweat and was nervous she spoke nothing but asked Irfan if they could go somewhere out and that she was feeling very uncomfortable in front of his mother, he agreed and they left, he took her out for dinner and promised her he will never leaver her again.

After dinner, he drove her back home and told her that his mom will be here for a couple of days and then he will come and meet her and that she can move in back with him to his apartment. Wow, she felt the joy in her heart again. Irfan a few days later came by to beauty's mother's house to meet the family they were glad to see him again.

They prepared dinner for him after dinner he asked beauty to go along with him home. And from that day they both lived in a live-in relationship for another two years. By now they both could not be away from each other Irfan had taken a separate house on rent below beauty's mother's house he took care of all their needs, rent, schooling etc.

On week end's beauty would bring the kid's to Irfan's house they would all prepare lunch go for a drive to the beach or for a movie. Sometimes whenever she missed the girls she took a rickshaw and went straight to be with them. Everything was going very good but Irfan could not stay in India for long as his studies and degree had finished his student visa was getting over.

Either he gets married to beauty and settles down in India with her or he had to get back to Iran for good. Now more complication had come on them both, beauty was now carrying Irfan child. He wanted to have the kid and he loved her he was willing to settle down with beauty in India.

But beauty's mother as always making thing impossible for her daughter one day called Irfan and advised him not to give up his foreign passport but to go back to Iran she told him "if you are here in India after few years u will also be on the roads without money begging".

[Very clever] way to ruin her daughter's life but yet Irfan could not do this to the beauty he had real feelings for her. One day beauty visited her granny house and her granny complained of throat pain so beauty brought the granny to Irfan's home, she told him that they didn't know what was wrong and why? Irfan was a general surgeon so he asked the granny to meet one of his doctor friend who was an ENT immediately beauty took her granny to meet him.

Her granny had to go through some medical test, scans when the reports came Irfan's friend called Irfan and gave him the news Iran was sad to hear it and did not know how to give this news to beauty, he knew she loved her granny a lot. And that she was also pregnant he did not want to break the news to her.

He told beauty mother everything but insisted that nobody told this to beauty. Every day after work Irfan would come back home get beauty dressed and take her to her granny house he was treating her at home personally every day he would visit her give her the IV and her medication and go home.

This went on for 5 to 6 months until one day on Feb 2, 1997, her granny took very bad so beauty was called home Irfan and beauty rushed home and saw her condition was bad so they took her to a near general hospital and admitted her. Until then beauty did not know what her granny had been suffering from.

The doctors had asked the family to take the granny down to the radiation ward. After 3 days they discharged her home, beauty felt her granny is feeling better so she went back to Irfan's house. That night Irfan asked beauty to go along with him he was taking her to pondy to see his brother.

They left early morning visited Irfan brother and they spent 3 days in pondy. 5th was beauty birthday they spent her birthday at Irfan house but it was a surprise birthday party he wanted to give her. In the evening beauty's two daughters her, stepfather her siblings had come over Iran arranged for everything without beauty getting to know In front of all her family member's, he announced that today they were getting engaged What more can she want she was the happiest woman on earth it was a dream finally come true.

Everybody had dinner they enjoyed themselves that was the luckiest day of beauty's life. But as I said earlier this date of her birth had always brought only misfortune to her. The next day she visited her granny actually her granny waited to see her on her birthday. But nobody knew it thank god beauty came to visit her the next day to continue her Granny's medication.

Her granny held her hands the whole day was just trying to give her a message but her voice was very low and she had gone too far with her throat cancer. This was in her last stage when beauty came to know of it, But it was only in God's hands she sat beside her granny crying and telling her not to leave her soon and that she needed her now.

Later that evening, while everyone was on the terrace sitting and talking to Irfan only beauty, was beside her granny watching over her, suddenly her granny started making different sounds in her throat it was the death rattle which they say that is the last of the patient but beauty did not understand a word and a few seconds later she started gasping for breath beauty immediately rushed out and started calling her mother and Irfan to rush down.

When they rushed down they saw the granny fighting for breath they tried giving her a CPR punching her chest but finally, her granny gave up. As her life went while beauty was standing beside her granny eyes was on her, beauty felt not only her grandmother life was going but she was taking beauty's too beauty was in a shock she could not react nor could she cry she sat breathing hard and harder her heart chest started beating.

She screamed in a loud voice to her mother saying "help me I'm sinking" her mother came by her side a slapped her tightly. She dropped down and could not speak slowly her mother asked Irfan to take her out in the open to get some fresh air. as they came out Iran took her to a nearby tea shop gave her a hot cup of milk. Even after that beauty felt very weak and that drowning thing didn't wear off.

The only way they had to bring her back was her mother, had to give her a short of brandy with hot water to drink.
