I loosen my tie and pull it away. I dart my eyes around, " Jaan! " I usually found her getting ready for bed or reading something on her phone.
I walk over to the hall. There's no sign of her, " Suhana! " My voice raises and I turn to the washroom.
She isn't visible in the room. I rake my gaze one more time around the room. I walk over to the desk after sighting a note and narrow my eyes. My phone vibrates in my pocket.
I fish it out. She has messaged me from Fb. I click on the text immediately.
' I'm switching off my phone, I'm on a flight. I'll call you after reaching there. Please, don't get mad at me. '
" What's the fuck it this! " I run my hand in my hair.
I click on Kabir's number. I didn't wait for him to say anything, " My wife has recently boar
He slams the door as he gets out of the car and leaves me alone in the car. I stare out of the window. Karan opens the door for me. He takes a step back and crosses his arms over his chest. He stares down at me. " Don't give me that look. Your brother has done a lot. " I sigh and step out of the car. " I haven't seen him so disturb before." He drops his arms with a heavy sigh, " You should tell him. He didn't eat, drink. He... " He rakes both hands in his hair, " Don't do this again," he says. " I'll tell you next time instead of him, " I say to him and close the door behind me. " Seriously! You gotta be kidding me." He stares at me again. " He's pretty mad. I left a note for him." I glance back at the mansion, " Where are we? " I ask, changing the topic. " One of our properties." H
I stare at my bare feet. I feel the tingle sensation running under my skin. Instantly, I pull my knees to my chest. The sun is up. I haven't stepped outside of the room. I had my breakfast in my room. I ate half of it. I've no appetite. No one knocks on the door. I stare at the water. It's calm. I wanna go out but I don't wanna message him and give details of it. " Hi, " I snap my head back, " Rahul! " My lips part in a big smile. He's the one person who'll never judge me. " Why look upset? " He furrows his brows. I bite my lower lip, " Can you take me out? " I ask him. " Little Suhana is missing her angle. Would you like to meet her? We can have ice cream and whatever you like. " He says smilingly. " Sounds great. I need to change." I say to him. 
I scroll down on my phone. I've posted our picture together. I glance over my phone. His chin is tilted, eyes are fixed on the screen of his laptop. My first date with my husband was good. It was he who entertained me with his talk. I sigh, " Ain't you swimming today?" I suddenly ask him, astounding myself. He swivels his neck and looks at me with a cute smile, " I'm slightly busy today." He says. It may sound stupid. But I like to see him swimming. He's awesome in it, " What's it?" He asks. I shrug my shoulders and return to my phone. I gaze at him through the corners of my eyes. He glides toward me, putting his laptop aside. He's only wearing sweatpants. His chest is chiselled. He snatches the phone from my hands. He peers at the display, " We look beautiful together, " " Just beautiful! " I raise my eyebrows,
All Rights Reserved 2021 © Seerat KaurCHAPTER ONE She falls back to sleep in my arms again. Life feels cursed to see her in torment. It feels blessed she doesn't flinch with my touch. I inclined her back. Her friends don't leave her side. Tucking the blanket back, I get off the mattress. " Mini, she'll be the same as before all this?" Sippy asks, tears are shimmering in her eyes. " Yes," She looks at me, "'You won't hurt her ever." She asks. " Never, " I promised her. I can't think of harming her. Vicky steps into the room while holding a tray, " If you both wanna stay in this room, you girls need t
My wife is asleep. It's early morning. I couldn't sleep. My heart is exploding with dread. My chest is heaving, my jaw is set tight, I don't know what to do? I'm scared to touch her as I don't want her to gross out. I rub my palm over my forehead. She's conducting as she doesn't know me. " What's happening to her?" I try to rein my anger and control my voice. They're stressed too. " Short term memory loss. She wasn't facing it after the incident." Mini says. Her voice is groggy after all crying. " He knows!" Sippy astounds and stares at her. "She doesn't know anything about it. We told him before their wedding. I want him to know everything. He should know what he's walking in." Mini says.  
Mini puts earrings into my earlobes. I peer at him, he's sitting on the couch, hovering his fingers on the laptop, but I catch him looking at me many times. His chest is too sculpted, I can easily count each one of his six abs. I'm not comfortable in a blouse, but Mini has shown me my pictures in such dresses. I'm astounded, my mother hasn't killed me yet. My hair is down and wavy. Mini did a little makeup on my skin. I glance at my reflection this time, instead of him. "Thank you," I smile looking up at her. "Welcome baby, " She leaves a small kiss on my head. I hesitate. I don't want them to think anything wrong, " I wanna talk to him alone," I say and both stop. I wasn't allowed to do anything on my own, my mother will beat the hell out of me. I'm glad she's not here. I hate her. 
She did not ask me to go anywhere. She is too coy. I asked Mini to suggest anything. She likes water. So I'm taking her to Oberoi Marine Ltd. I have already sent a message to James. "How far?" She asks me again. It has been more than ten times. I glance at her. She's wearing her favourite colour's gown green, thin strips are showing her bare shoulders, her hair is wavy and spread over her shoulders. She's continuously watching out of the window and windshield, sometimes she puts her chin between her palms joining them and looks at the road with a small curl at the corners of her pink lips. I keep my hands on the steering wheel and grasp it so tightly that my knuckles turn white. It is hard to keep my hands away from her when I know she belongs to me. "Just a few more minutes," I say to her.
We returned from the shipyard an hour ago. I have my account on Instagram. I've checked it. But there's nothing, no particular message from him or any memory of him with me. Did I wipe him out of my life? Or did he do this? Is he that cruel? Could be! If he can cheat on me. He can do anything. I click on Arnav and my picture. We're looking happy. It clicked before our wedding. I haven't written anything below it. I'm in a white gown and he's in a white shirt. I think I should forget him. It has been five years. He must have gotten married, perhaps kids too. But I need to know what happened. I bite my lip staring at the walls. My eyes stop on our wedding picture. He looks like a model. Geez! I don't even know. What does he do for a living? "Hi, are you hungry?" Sippy walks into the room holding a tray in her hand. I put my phone aside and get on my feet hurriedly
