Wifey

Nithya's pov.....

I'm hating this Akash now, he blackmailed me to attend pooja. I'm not at all interested to go there and face Dhruv. Shilpa aunty also insisted me to come but I denied it telling her I'm not feeling well,she understands it and didn't force me. But this Akash, he knows everything about marriage and Dhruvs condition to not show my face. He kept on insisting me and finally blackmailed me. Great, and given me a red colour saree, it is beautiful saree.

For Akash and only for Akash I'm getting ready now. I wear red saree, bangles and leave my hairs open. I saw my reflection in mirror, ok done now. I went to living room my mom,dad and brother is waiting for me there. They all praised me and we headed to Dhruvs house.

We are in front of house, I slowed down my walk taking some deep breaths. I entered in home, Dhruv was standing a few feet away from me. He was handsome as always, he was eyeing me from tip to toe. I felt uncomfortable with his gaze. Soon pooja started and I can feel Dhruv was constantly watching me. Why? Doesn't he didn't want to watch my face? Why he is watching me now?

Pooja completed and pandit revealed about my marriage. Is it really happening now? Why?

God what I have to do now, my dad asking me about my marriage, what should I have to tell him? Deny it? Or accept it I'm married to Dhruv? But Dhruv doesn't like me he never accepts me as his wife. What I have to do now? God please save me. Dhruv came to my dad and "uncle..." Before he could say anything my dad stopped him.

"I'm talking to my daughter so you keep out of it." He was angry I can sence by his voice. Ok Nithya you have to do it, you can't angry him again by not telling him truth. So just tell them every thing.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath and lifted my head. I look at my father his eyes were blood red I couldn't form any word watching him. I just nodded my head.

Before I could explain anything to my dad, he slapped me on left cheek. Slap was so hard I put my hand on cheek, it is burning. Tears are rolling down from my eyes unconditionally. My mom came to me and stand in front of me like protecting me from my dad.

"Sharath what are you doing?"she shouted.

"Radhika, just get the hell out of here. I'm talking to Nithya."my dad shouted back and his voice was so dence, I shivered listening to it. My mom went back to where she is standing before, she was crying. I didn't lifted my head I whispered "sorry dad." That's all came from my mouth. I don't know how to explain everything, happened.

"Sorry , I trusted you Nithya and you married to someone that to last month,you didn't tell it to anyone. You broke my trust Nithya, why did you do that? Before marrying him you doesn't think about me? How could I feel about it when truth is revealed? How could you do this Nithya? How? Before marrying him I wish you could have died. Maybe I just cry for some days or months but I will compose myself. I never thought you my weakness besides whole my friends telling me that a daughter is a biggest weakness and burden. But I always feel like you are my strength,I always feel proud of having a daughter like you. But I was wrong. You betrayed me Nithya, you betrayed me...." My dad shouting at me.

"Enough"I heard Dhruv's voice, he came towards dad and stand in front of him "enough is enough uncle"his voice is so cold.

Dhruv and my dad were shouting at one another but I couldn't take it anymore. I walked out from there, I was a mess I had my clutch with me. I'm walking aimlessly, all people were watching me like I'm a crazy girl. I took a bus I didn't know where it was going, I seated next to window. My head was resting on window glass. My head is paining so much, it's like anytime it can explode. I closed my eyes and I thought what my dad said to me.

Yes he was right,I was a burden for him, because I'm a daughter not a son. I heard it so many times but I never feel this horrible compare to now. Im burden to everyone, I'm a girl who doesn't want anyone. My dad said that he wish I was died, and my so called husband who doesn't accepts me as his wife. Should I can call him as husband, no. He is not, he denied it. What I have to do now? Where should I have to go now? There is no one for me. Tears are rolling down from my closed eyes also. Bus stopped at some place. I climbed down from bus and started to walk. There is only a way for me to free from everyone.

I have to do it, there is no one for me. So why should I have to live, my dad wished for my death. So I'm fulfilling his wish, I have to die. Otherwise they will force Dhruv to accept me as his wife, and I don't want to be burden on him also. So I have to die, I took a deep breath. My phone continuously ringing in my clutch. I took out my phone and saw who was calling me. It's Dhruv, ok I should apologise to him, because of me he also gone through it. I lifted call "where the hell are you Nithya?" He started shouting at me I closed my eyes and I averted my eyes and I can see there is a big truck coming towards me,It was far.

"Nithya talk to me damn it? Where are you?"

"I'm sorry Dhruv"

"What are you talking? Just tell me where are you?"

I saw the truck it was coming near so I have to complete what I'm doing now.

"I'm sorry, because of me you have to see this day. But I promise you will never have to face this type of day. Tell my parents and my brother I love them, and always love them...." I take my phone from my ear and clutched it in my hand tightly, truck is few metres away from me now. I have to do it, when truck is about to come in front of me I made a run before truck and it hit me hard. I landed on the road, my vision is becoming blurr second by second. My head and right hand were so much in pain. I remember lastly my whole family members, friends and Dhruv. All people surrounded me and I closed my eyes. It was end of me, end of Nithya's life. Now I'm no one's burden, I'm free now.

Dhruv's pov....

We are in hospital now, Nithya is in operation theatre doctors are performing surgery on her. I'm just hoping she will be fine. Some police officers came to us.

"Are you all patients relatives?" He asked us, I stood up and nodded "yes, she is my wife."

"Ok, people over incident place stopped the truck and captured driver. He was in police station now." My blood boiled hearing it. I want to kill him with my bare hands.

"And sorry to say this to you sir, but driver said that she ran in front of the truck. He even tried to stop the truck he hit on brake also but before it stop, truck hit your wife." Hearing it made me more angry, he dare to accuse my wife. And somewhere I know it is true. But I don't want to believe it.

"And you believed him?" I said in sarcastic tone.

"No sir, actually we saw CCTV footage, after seeing it we concluded it as a suiside."

"What?"

"Sir, if you want to see we can show you CCTV, and hear it is." He handed me a phone. I took it and watched a video, Nithya was standing and talking on phone probably with me. And suddenly she ran infront of truck, it hit her she landed on road. There were lot of blood, she lost lot of blood.

After that police officers went from there. I heard Radhika aunty crying, I couldn't see it I went to her and kneel down in front of her. I took her hands in mine and said "aunty listen to me, nothing will happen to Nithya. She will be fine, I appoint best doctors for her, even I will take her to other country if it's necessary to treat her. I'm giving my word to you aunty. Nothing would happen to her." I said it with determination or I can say I said that to me, assuring me nothing will happen to my Nithya.

"Let her go Dhruv!" Aunty said while wiping her tears from her hand.

"What?"

"Yes, let her go Dhruv. No one deserves her, from childhood she was listening that she is burden for her dad. Because she is daughter not a son, Sharath's whole family taunt my daughter for being a girl child. She never said it to anyone, not even me. One day I accidentally read her dairy, then I know she was getting humiliated from her aunty, uncle and grandparents of Sharath family. But she never showed this to anyone, nor she said. I asked her why she didn't tell it to anyone then she said that 'it's ok, if they are thinking like that it's there problem not ours. I know my dad loves me so much he never think of me as a burden so why should I have to care.' She did what her father said, you know she wants to become a chef and open a small restaurant. But Sharath told her there is no future in becoming a chef. She didn't argue she did like Sharath told her to do.she joined college.she will never show her problems to anyone, she never shares it with anyone. She will cry for whole night, and next morning you can see a smiling Nithya. My daughter is so strong Dhruv, she beared all humiliation, but when her dad told her she was his burden. She couldn't take it anymore so she did this. I know when she disappeared from your house today that she will do like this. And see she did it."

"Please Dhruv, don't save her, you don't know what Sharath's family members will do with her when she was up. I can't take it anymore, my daughter didn't done any harm to anyone. But she was always treated wrong by others. They will eat her alive, this world don't need a girl like her. She is good from heart, just let her go." She again started crying, my mom came and hugged aunty. Uncle also crying, I got up from there and went to men's washroom and locked it.

I stand in front of mirror and kept on thinking. What I have done,she is broken but I just add fuel. Tears are rolling down from my eyes. She gone through so much, but not now. I will love her, so much. I will show her that she is not anyone's burden or anything. I thought and I washed my face and headed towards operation theatre. After some time doctor came out side. I went to him

"How is my wife, is she ok?"

"Yes, she is okay. But she lost a lot of blood, and her right hand is fractured so we put on a cast. Her head was injured but it's nothing to worry. She needs lot of rest and healthy food."doctor said while smiling, I released a sigh of relief.

"Thank you doctor, and can I see her?"

"Once she will shifted to room you can."he patted his hand on my shoulder and moved.

Nithya shifted to her room and I was the one first meeting her. She is unconscious, I sat beside her and took her hand in mine. Her head was wrapped in bandage, she looks pale and right hand was on cast. I kissed her knuckles, I'm waiting for her to see me.

"I'm sorry Nithya, because of me you have to gone through a lot. But I promise you that I love you so much. I will do whatever I can to see you happy, to see your smile. No one will ever dare to disrespect you from now on wards." I kissed her forehead and pecked on lips.

She opened her eyes slowly, and look at me. I smiled to her, but she didn't smiled to me. I know it will take some time for her. I put my hand on her cheek and caressed it with my thumb.

"How are you feeling now?" I asked her very slowly.

She nodded her head, And a nurse and our family members came in to room. All asked her how she is feeling, she didn't uttered a word since woke up. I feel sad to see her like this, not smiling, not talking.

"Do you want anything, wifey?" I asked once all went outside.

"Wifey?"she asked me by furrowing her eyebrows.

"Yes wifey, you are my wife, we are married from last one month. Wait!? Did you forget it, you got amnesia or something. No,doctor didn't said anything about memory loss."

"No I didn't forget anything."

"Ok, you sacred me. But then why did you react like that?"

"Because you never accepted me as your wife."

"Ohh, ok because I was a fool to deny it. And I hated that doing to you. And I realised that I was wrong. I accepted it we are married and you are my wife."

"You sure, they didn't forced you, right."

"No way, they didn't. I'm sorry Nithya, I know I behave like a jerk to you. And I'm guilty for it,So please give me a chance."

"Why? Why now? You don't know anything what I have gone through this month. And now you want a chance, but I'm sorry I'm not ready. What if after some time you doesn't wa....." I stopped her, I kissed her very passionately. The kiss was to show her how much I want her in my life as my wife, how much I love her. She was shocked she didn't respond to my kiss. She pushed me slightly by breathing heavily, her cheeks turned to red. Oh my god she is blushing,she put her hand on her lips. I smiled and leaned on her and touched her forehead with mine.

"Nithya, you are my wife and no one can deny it. I promise you I will never leave you, just give me a chance baby please. I will protect you from all evil eyes."I started caressing her cheek with my thumb. She looked in my eyes and started crying. I hugged her tightly, "don't cry baby please. " She put her left hand around my waist,after some time she stopped crying. I smiled and I kissed on her temple while broking the hug. I wiped her tears with my thumb, she gave me a small smile. I smiled to her, "now take rest try to sleep."I told her she nodded her head. I sat on chair by taking her hand in me, It perfectly fit. I lightly kissed on her hand. She closed her eyes, suddenly Radhika aunty came in. Nithya opened her eyes "Nithya Sharath's family is coming to meet you." Nithya got tensed, she tighten her grip on my hand and I can see her eyes got tears again. "Why? Please mom I don't want to meet them." She started to pleading her mom. "I'm sorry Nithya, I can't stop them you know that."

I squeezed her hand assuring her I was with her and she looked at me "no one will do anything to you. I'm here with you, just trust me." She nodded her head. Soon her so called relatives came in, Nithya doesn't leave my hand. I stood up and stand beside her. They all started there drama of being nice relatives, how much I controlled myself to not hit them all, only god knows.

"Nithya how are you, I got scared when I heard that you gone through a accident.." Nithya's aunty started and she looked at me and our hands, Nithya hang her head low throughout this time.

"Brother who is he? And why is he holding her hand?"

"He is Nithya's husband, they got married accidentally." Uncle told her, she looked back and forth between me Nithya.

"What? They are already married, And none of us know that. Are you sure brother that they got married accidentally or they did it purposely." She said in mocking tone, right now I want to punch on her face very hard. But Nithya tighten her grip and started sobbing.

"Enough rupa, can't you see my daughter gone through so much, you are here and blaming her. I'm telling you stay away from my daughter, I have known that what you done through out these years with my daughter. You said she is my burden, how could you? She is not and I love her so much. So stay far away from her." Uncle shouted at that aunty. She glared at me and Nithya.

"Come on brother they fooled you and you can't see. They got married because they lov...."before she completes, what her nonsense I stopped her. "Enough"

"Can't you see, my wife wants rest. So please get the hell of here." I said in cold tone.

"Brother see he is disrespecting us in front of you. And Nithya you must be enjoying it, right." Her uncle started.

"No, he is not disrespecting you, he is just thinking about his wife. She needs rest and he is making sure of it."Sharath uncle said in sarcastic tone.

"Can't you listen, my 'wife' needs rest. Just go out and do whatever you want. Or else you want me to call security to kick you out of here." I emphasize wife word, they didn't barge they all stand there carrying there own smirk. They don't know about me what can I do. I took out my phone and dailed Antony.

"Antony send some security guards in room, there is a lot of trash here I want it to be cleaned."I cut the call. "Just wait there!"

"How dare you to call us trash."

"That I'm, I can not only call you trash, I will make your life like a trash can. Any disrespect towards my wife, I will make sure you all live a life like living hell. So better keep out of our lives." They glared and stomped out of room. I sat beside Nithya, she hugged me and cried on my neck. She settled and leaned towards bed.

"Thank you"she said, I smiled and wiped her tears and said "I told you I will  protect you from all evil, and I did it." I winked to her, she started smiling a genuine smile. I claimed her lips once again in very passionate kiss. I broke the kiss, when she is out of oxygen. She started blushing again.

"You don't know how much I missed that smile on your face,Now sleep."she closed her eyes. I sat there admiring her, now every thing will be fine.
