The Binding String

F O R T Y

Raman drew conclusion what suited to him and wished if things go according to his plans. Somewhere Raman knew he is hoping too much from his life but hopes are something which helps us in moving forward. He packed his bags and left early that evening so that he can spend his remaining day with Roohi and Ishita. Raman had planned movie date for Ishita and Roohi that evening, his little sick daughter thoroughly enjoyed the animated movie and so that Raman Ishita, it was almost midnight when they reached back to home after watching movie along half sleepy Roohi. Raman himself fell asleep after reaching back to home but Ishita decided to sleep only after dumping all the soiled clothes in laundry basket and that night she saw the fade lipstick mark on the back of his shirt.

Just yesterday she have decided not to raise the topic of receiving suspicious messages from some Ms.S and chose to trust on her husband instead but today as she saw that fade lipstick mark on his shirt back, something crumbled inside her.

Does he betraying me?

She asked to herself looking at the direction where her husband was sound asleep hugging their daughter.

Samaira Khanna didn't changed her clothes after coming back, she was burning into rage of jealousy and anger. The insult was not easy for her to take, she got insulted and slut-shamed by a man whom she loved dearly. He broke her heart another time, earlier when he left her behind she consoled her heart with the news that he is going to get divorced from his wife but now he is all set to lead a happy life with his professor wife and little daughter but that was unacceptable for Samaira. Raman is solely responsible behind her divorce and if he cannot be hers then how could she allow him to be of someone else? Raman had promised to get married to her once she divorce her husband and he did what he asked but what she got in return?

Mockery and humiliation.

She always got what she wished and she will not let Raman to break his promise. She will try her best to make him hers and if it does not happen then she will make sure to make him shed tears of blood.

"Agar tum mere nahi hue toh phir Ishita ke kaise ho sakte ho Raman? Tumhare kaaran maine apni family kho di, mera sab chin gaya now I will make sure to make your life living hell. Shuruaat toh ho hi chuki hai, ab dekho kaise tumhari wife tumhe chod ke jaati hai. " (You spoiled my life Raman. Don't think if I would leave you easily. Just wait and watch how I will make your wife leave you.) 
She laughed manically and stripped her dress, with unsteady legs she sat over the floor somehow just in her bra and panty and dug inside her bag for another packet of powered cocaine and snorted it which eventually landed her into an another world otherside from very next day of Raman secret meting with Samaira, the events started started to occur in their life which were enough to create ruckus in their marriage. At very next day Ishita received a link of online gossip website where her husband picture was published posing with some lady. According to his attire, the picture belonged from the day when he was out for a meeting in some resort located at the outskirts of Delhi. She doesn't remebere if Raman went to some resort for partying but the picture appeared different, he was looking tipsy and carefree in those pictures and it affected Ishita.

So what? He is a CEO. It's pretty common for them to attend such parties and gives such poses. How does it make difference?

Ishita consoled to herself staring the white walls of her room, the pen with she was writing the notes for her next class fell from her hand and she rested her chin over her palm consoling her heart not to think much about the ongoing chaos in her life. Pehle bhi yahi hua tha mere saath maine sabki baat pe believe kiya bas Raman ko chod kar, it's better ki is baar main kisi bhi aur par believe na karoon. Mujhe vishwaas hai Raman mera bharosa nahi todenge. (I should calm down my mind and try to trust Raman instead of listening everyone. Even last time I believed on everyone except Raman. I'm sure he won't break my trust this time.)
