RAAHIFLASHBACK"E...everyone?" I stuttered, looking at him in complete horror."Yes. So that everyone should know that you're mine," he calmly responded."I... I mean what's the need?" I questioned."Are you planning to betray me, sweetheart?"His voice sounded calm and questioning but I knew it was a clear threat. "No... No," I immediately looked down. He was extremely intimidating and I couldn't continue to look at him like that."Then?" He asked."I mean... I mean it could create trouble for me. Like, if the teachers would get to know about this or if they inform my parents, what would I do then?" I finally addressed my fear.Yes, I was scared of Arhaan but more than that, I was scared of my parents and I didn't want to go home."So? What if they inform your parents?" He questioned."They would take me back home. I wouldn't be able to complete my studies then," I muttered.Somewhere, I was ready to suffer, I was ready to be tortured but I wasn't ready to give up on my studies. I

RAAHI"Saksham!"I was surprised after getting to know that Saksham is my interviewer."Raahi!"He looked entirely surprised as well."Hey," I smiled.Everything from our past cane flashing in front of me. Whatever we had, maybe we spent moments together, but those moments were always the sweetest ones for me. "Come, sit," he spoke, immediately getting up from his chair and making me sit on the chair opposite to him.I sat down and smiled a bit."How have you been?" He asked."Good," I replied.Saksham then walked towards his chair and settled down."So, you're here for the job interview?" He asked."Yes. I badly need this job," I nodded."Arhaan allowed you to work? That's impressive," he looked surprised at my words.The moment he mentioned Arhaan's name, the unsettling feeling gripped me again, but I somehow maintained my composure and smiled."He didn't," I replied."What?" He looked surprised."Yes. I ran away from Arhaan," I confessed."What?" He got another shock."Hmm," I nod

ARHAANFLASHBACKI was waiting for Raahi outside the washroom area of our college but she was taking too long. This girl never wastes a chance to frustrate the shit out of me.I couldn't wait for her anymore, I needed to be with her right then and that's why, I walked towards where the washrooms were. As I entered the space, I spotted Raahi, standing outside the girl's bathroom, I quickly walked towards her just to get shocked.My girl was holding another man's hand and smiling? How the fuck she even dare to look at another man? Doesn't she know that's not how an ideal girl, ideal girlfriend should behave? Does she want to whore around?I immediately stood in front of her and glared at her. She didn't even bother to acknowledge my presence and that angered me much more."What the fuck is happening here?" I growled.Raahi and that guy immediately flinched and turned towards me. She left his hands and the smile on her face disappeared. Why doesn't she smile when she sees me? Why does

RAAHI"And do what? Die?" I questioned him.He looked at me with a shocked glance while I monotonously looked at the other side."Why would you say that?" Saksham asked me."Because it was my misery. I had to suffer through that, maybe it was in my destiny and that's why your death wouldn't even matter. It would have only left a black spot in my concise," I replied, looking at him."Raahi. Like I used to tell earlier, destiny is the choices we make," he softly responded."Yes. And I made choices that made my life miserable," I scoffed."Okay. Let's go, Arohi will be waiting for you. I will be talking to my wife about her old house for the rent," he gasped."Thank you," I slightly nodded.And then, both of us walked out of the waiting area.FLASHBACK"Punish...punish him? Why?" I stammered, looking at Arhaan as he looked angry.He suddenly gripped his fingers on my cheeks, pressing it and hurting me more. I hissed in pain but it felt like my pain had no effect on him."He dared to talk

ARHAAN"Officer. She has been missing for more than a couple of days. Please find her," I shouted on the phone as I talked to the police officer.I had to find my Raahi, I had to find my daughter. Where could she even go leaving me like this? Has she no idea about the consequences? How could she be so naive?"We're trying to find her. But it seems like she ran away on her own," the officer replied, irking me more."So? Your job is to find her," I scoffed."Not if she has walked away of her own will," he replied."What do you mean?" I asked. I was frustrated at the officer's behaviour."Well, I checked on to your records and whatever I have found out, compels me to not search for her at this moment of time," he spoke."Look. Don't twirl your words like a merry go round. Speak to the point," I sneered."Okay. Fine. After looking at your records, I found out she has filed multiple cases of harassment on you. A couple of them were after your wedding with her. So, I do think, she had no o
