The next day morning

Rithick’s POV

The whole night I couldn’t sleep peacefully. I looked at Rahul’s face, he was in deep sleep and he didn’t even change his position while sleeping. He held my hand tightly.  It melted my heart with lonely tear in my eyes. I am one of the reasons to push him to this situation. I can’t allow Nethra all alone in airport. My humanity didn’t allow me to do that. Why all these worst incidents are happening to Rahul alone? What is his wrong? His love always deserved him to face the most terrible situations.

Suddenly, some questions arose in my mind. Where is Nethra’s husband? Why did she come alone? Whatever may be her situation, I don’t care for her. Our goodness, her husband didn’t accompanied with her, if he comes it will hurt Rahul very much.

Rahul slowly opened his eyes. He whispered in sleepy tone, “Rithick.....Sorry for Yesterday’s activities. I didn’t remember much,” he stammered and slept again.

“It’s ok Rahul but promise me that you won’t repeat again,”

“Ok sure Rithick, I don’t repeat,” he said with rubbing his eyes.

Meanwhile Riya entered the room. She looked gently at Rahul, “Anna, Are you okay? Don’t Drink. Drinking is injurious to health,” Tears rolled down from her eyes. Riya never used to cry often but if she cried no one can stop that Nile river flowing from her eyes. My eyes became wet by seeing her.

Rahul wiped the tears, “I hate my sister crying. It’s because of me, I never repeat again Riya. You shouldn’t cry hereafter,” said affectionately and he cursed himself.

Riya hugged Rahul saying “Ok Anna”

“Anna! Today we are going out to pay respect for Nethra’s mom death anniversary. Mom said to inform you both. Get ready and come to living room soon,” she said.

Rahul remained silent. His face became dull at once he heard the  name Nethra.

“Are you ok Rahul? If you are not comfortable, we shall stay at home itself” I said

“It’s ok Rithick. Nethra’s mom was good hearted and trustful person unlike Nethra or like her dad. We knew how much she loved us. If she was alive, she will never allow the situation to become worse like this. She always do good to us and she will never hurt us in any situation............” he stopped saying, keeping something in his mind about the past. I could see it clearly and the pain in his heart.

“Of course Rahul, You are right!” I said. His worries were disturbing me. His tears were killing me. I didn't show out to Rahul as it will hurt him.

“It’s our duty to pay respect to her by visiting her memorial spot” said Rahul. He got up from bed and went restroom to get refresh.

I really felt sorry for Rahul. I never expected Nethra's return to India. Even in my dreams, I haven't imagined that after two years, she will come with baby.  I was worried about Rahul as it affects him mentally like before. No! I should do something before that. I should find a way soon to make him happy.

Rahul’s POV

My body was aching heavily as I drank yesterday. I felt very much tired. I don’t know what happened  yesterday but I remembered that I slept in Rithick's lap. Oh God! Poor Rithick, His leg will be aching heavily as I slept throughout the whole night.

Did Rithick meet Nethra? He didn’t tell anything about her. Also, I don’t want to discuss anything about her to anyone because it will hurt them badly that I am worrying about Nethra. I had dug a deep hole in my heart and buried everything already regarding Nethra. My feelings and emotions were hidden inside and I will never going to expose it to anyone.

After sometimes later I came out from my thoughts. I went to wash room and I got ready with casual outfits.

I and Rithick went to living room. I got blessings from my mom purposely I wanted to do since I had drunk; I assured myself that I shouldn’t repeat. I heard the voice of my dad and uncle. They also suspended the works of today to pay respect of Nethra’s mom. We had converse for some time and breakfast together.

Where is Nethra? Did she come or not? There was no talk about her. I don’t want to see her in my life time since she got married with other man. It will tear my heart and kill me within a fraction of seconds. I didn’t have enough guts to see her with other man. Even I can’t imagine her with third person. How she could do such betrayal to me? she backstapped me with thousands of sharp arrows. I think, sometimes she may refuse to come together with Rithick. She may go to her home.

Rithick shook me made me back to present. “Rahul! Are you ok? Let’s go first. They will come little later,” I went with him.

I heard a baby cry, I turned back to see and I was shocked to see Nethra with baby. At once, my body started sweating too much and my hands were shivering as much as I couldn’t control. I was blabbering, “Neth..raa..” I wish to hug and embrace her in my arms but my stupid mind didn’t realised as she was married until I saw the child in her hand.

My eyes got fixed but she didn’t have eye contact with me and showed no reaction in her face. Her reaction made me to fall down from the peak of the mountain as I have never imagined before Nethra with such kind of attitudes. What is this girl? Did she really have no feelings for me? I am the fool to believe her and get cheated. I cried inside but I didn't show any reaction in my face, hardly I hide it.

“Nethra! How about you?” asked Sanjay uncle at once, he saw her.

“I am good,” she replied something. I and Rithick came out as I can't stand there even for a second. I and Rithick decided to go by bike.

Rithick didn't talk with me and we both avoided eye contact as we both can't control our emotions. Rithick drove the bike and within few minutes we reached the memorial spot. Rithick gave a pity look at me “Rithick! Please don’t see me like that. I can’t act anymore” I said.

“I understood” said him.

“Why did she do it for me? What mistake I have done to her? How could she betray me after knowing all about me? Am I cruel or worst or rude? Tell me Rithick” unknowingly tears rolled down from my eyes.

Rithick hugged me. “Don’t make me weak by your tears. Please! Rahul, don’t cry for the girl who didn’t deserve your love”

“I couldn’t control myself, Rithick. I don’t want this life and I can’t live anymore,” I sobbed like a child.

“Are you mad? I will kill you if you repeat it again. You decided to end your life for her but think about us once. You should live happily in front of her that is the punishment you are going to give to her” Rithick consoled me far better.

“Seriously, I have love for her these many days before seeing her because in the corner of my heart I believed that Nethra would never accept anyone as her life partner apart from me. Within a second, she took away my last hope too. She didn’t bother about me before marrying someone then why should I bother about her? Her attitudes and behaviour everything was changed by these two years. She is no more mine. I hate her! I hate her completely!” I said from the bottom of your heart. Rithick hugged me and made me feel comfortable.
