Shivani walked out, her head pulled down, her heart heavy with unbearable pain and tears streaming down her eyes. She had been insulted repeatedly by the man who claimed to have married her to protect her. Yet, he left no opportunity to show what a lowly woman he thought she was. She had believed that it was not possible for Mrityunjay to hurt her more than he had already, the night he refused to let her stay. But today, what he said, showed his utter lack of respect for her. It showed Shivani what type of woman he thought her to be, and THAT was the cause of her grievance... the way Mrityunjay perceived her.
She was numb with the realisation that what he thought of her, mattered to her so much.
