"My babies, you know I can't do anything that would save us right now. I know you heard everything he said, that am helpless and indeed I am. But you aren't helpless, right? I know you're weak to do something but I have complete faith in you that you would find a way to inform your father about this. You have to tell him that we're in danger so he can come to our rescue. Please try and find a way out."I talked to them. I wasn't sure if they'd do something but I had a feeling that they would try somehow.Evening came and the room became darker than before that I could barely see anything."How am I going to deliver in this darkness? How will I be able to save my children from this monster?"a lot of questions summoned to my mind.I never felt like a loser before but that night I felt defeated. I felt what every loser always feel after getting defeated.Time to give birth reached but I had no one by my side to encourage me, just like how Mike pointed before."Are you enjoying the moment?
"You can't tell me that you didn't see or hear anything. How did you go to that strange place? Who took you there and what happened after you had given birth?"he was unable to control his anger.I couldn't get annoyed with him for talking harshly to me. His anger was justifiable.I thought that maybe if he vent his anger on me he would somehow calm down but that didn't happen.The more he scolded me, the more furious he became."You need to tell me anything that you felt, heard or saw when we were away. Tell me now or else I will force you to."he shouted."Yes Artie dear. Tell us something. We'll be able to find your son and return him back to you. Tell us please." Mr Smith said."You don't need to worry or get scared of anything. Your father is here, everyone is here to take good care of you. To protect you and make sure that you're doing well with your babies so please tell us what you saw. Did those people kill him or something? Did they threaten you? Am sure they did. Maybe that's
The naming ceremony was a success with the first son named Manu and the second Mani.Manu meaning "greatest" and Mani "the moon".Everyone left in the evening so we had to sleep.Anu decided that he would sleep in the babies' room. The rest of us went to our bedrooms as usual but something still felt strange with me. I wondered how they managed to find Mike.Ignoring the feeling I slipped into my white nightgown and in no time I was already asleep.There came a nightmare about Mike. He wasn't angry as I thought he would. He was smiling instead."Did you like my surprise?" He started as he came very close to me."Don't touch me."I barked at him. "And what surprise are you talking about?"I asked."Your moon."he simply replied, making me confused."My moon? What do you mean. I don't have a moon."I said."What's the point of calling your children names that you won't recall their meanings."I sighed.His statement reminded me of my second son, Mani."How was he a surprise?"I confusedly as
A moment alone, I tried to rethink what mother just told me. I then thought of something.Guess what! I thought about my babies and their protection. "I must make a wish for my babies' sake if not for myself."I thought. "But what wish shall I make now. Should I ask for the magical black threads or something else? The black threads will keep them out of any danger and if I ask the shooting star to keep them away from Mike, it means that something else will be easy to happen to them.What do I do now. What should I ask for?"I couldn't find a choice."Am sure Mike is going to make a wish too since he has heard mother talk about the shooting star. But what will be his wish?"I wondered."Oh Lord, please make me the second demon to see the shooting star. I promise I won't ask for something else hereafter."I prayed.Some few hours later a strong strange wind blew outside and it just felt like an earthquake."This means it's already dawn and the star is about to shoot. Oh Lord, don't make m
"I said stop right there otherwise I will be compelled to hurt you."he warned but since I wasn't in my normal self I didn't listen. I wasn't scared of anything at the moment. All I wanted was my Mani.Grabbing the color of his shirt I slapped him so hard on the face. "Ouch! What have you done Artie? What are you doing. You're hurting me, am your Mike remember."he said which made me more annoyed."You fool, who told you that am in love with you. Why can't you find a way to get rid of this obsession. I don't love you and I never will, do you hear me?"I said pushing him away."You're making a big mistake Artie. How can you just forget that I still have your baby with me. Hurting me won't bring him back to you but instead it will create more problems for him."he pointed.Something was forcing me to attack him as my heart told me a different story. My heart wanted to give up for Mike. "Who knows what he would do to him hereafter."my heart thought, it was a heart of a mother but my demonic
After thinking it through I refused deliberately. I didn't want to put my baby's life in danger. "I can't do this Anu. Please forgive me if you can."I said and cried."What.. a.. are you saying? Why can't you do something? Don't you care about our son? Aren't you worried about him?"Anu asked with intense anger."You're right. I don't care about our sons at all. I hated them since day one when I turned blue because of their pregnancy. I hate them because of the pain they caused me for nine months. I think now you've understood my point, right? So stop bothering me anymore."I said. I wasn't saying all that because I meant them, I was already feeling guilty about the situation and Anu was irritating me too."I can't believe this. You must be joking Artie."father said with a disappointed expression."No father, this is the truth."I lied.I know it was so heartbreaking but I didn't have any other options. For my son's safety I was determined to hurt everyone's feelings."There's no point
With the snap of my fingers all my reflections came to the ground just like raindrops. "What's happening?"Mike looked amazed."I have created my own witnesses too. But unfortunately for you, they're against this wedding so it won't happen no matter what happens."I said confidently."You must be joking Artie. I swear I will kill you if you try to call off this wedding. You can't play with my feelings like this."he threatened."Are you threatening me?""I am."he simply replied."Am sorry to say but am not scared of your threats. Try me if you want to but be prepared to face your defeat. You said you would kill me if I stop this wedding so why am I still alive? What are you waiting for? Come and stab me to death please but only if you don't value your life anymore."I threatened at the end."I swear I won't spare you today."he said summoning his dagger."Sir, let my men kill her for you."the commander said."Then why are they still staring at me?"he shouted. And then the commander ordere
"You said Artie won the battle right, so where's she? She hasn't returned home yet."father asked with a worried expression on his face after the men had had their tea."Your highness Sir, actually the thing is she asked us to give her some space. She said she wanted to be alone for some time. Maybe that's why she hasn't returned home but everything is just fine, don't worry Sir."one of the men hurried to lie."She wanted some space? I don't think my daughter would use something like that. She might be in danger. Maybe she sent you away because she didn't want to involve you in her personal battles. Something is really fishy here. I need to find out."he said thoughtfully."But sir..."one of the men started."Yes.. tell me please."father paid attention."Your daughter asked us not to tell anyone about the battle. She didn't want to make you worried about anything because she knows she will handle it by herself. You should have some faith in her and let her first her own battles alone. I
