Raghav's POV:

'Today on this auspicious day...
You assume him to be Lord Sri Ramachandra...

And you must assume her to be Goddess Sita Mata...

Today you both considering each other to be two bodies and one soul just like Lord Sri Ram and Goddess Sita is promise each other to always be there for each other in sickness and health, in poverty and wealth, in tears and joy, with immense devotion and love....

Siya... Please make him wear the garland...

And ....Vitthal uncle held Siya's hand from behind helped her put the garland across my neck.

Then I looked at her and placed the garland across her neck.'

At that point of time....

I never knew if I would even bother or care for these vows...

Although I heard them carefully then...

But today when I was feeling my life is falling apart...

I felt like I was down in dumps....a lump of pain, shock and fear was stuck in my throat...

I was bereaved of someone whom I thought I would manage to win back but now the last string of hope broke too...

Our trust threads were already weak...

And this was last axing on it.

I knew it's finisht!!!

This time forever💔

When I saw her standing right there.

Like a monument!!!

Grief struck!!!

Emotionless!!!

With a pale face and a wierd expression I could never imagine.

I knew I'm into deep shit!

Without even being responsible for it!!!

I DID NOT Sleep with Vedika!!!

Although I was drunk I for sure knew I cannot do that.

I know I was drunk...I wasn't in my senses but I can't cheat on Siya.

Never!!!

That too in an hour huhhh!!!

But I barely remember that night...

All I recall was puking the hell out in Vish's washroom.

I quickly ran to Vish...

'Vish...you were with me that night... Remember you gave me tablet...

I was having a bad headache, hangover...

I was with you...

Its not possible...'

Vish in tears and shock was speechless...

Rubbing her temples slightly she said...

'Raghz I found you much later...you were in the pub drowning in alchohol but although I also had Naman Aditi who were super drunk to handle that night...I don't remember where you were before I took you along... Also I don't remember when you went to your room... But yes you were much into your senses once you puked...but I really can't assure...I have never seen you drink before...so ...I don't know... But my heart says you can't do this' she put her face down while tears were flowing from her eyes...

I looked at Siya who was still standing there with a stern look on her face.

She wasn't crying or angry...

She had a strange expression.

She surely was pissed but she was calm like water.

'Siya.... I didn't... Trust me Siya please...I didn't'

While she glared at me one brief minute as if analysing my soul.

I didn't have anything to say...

My eyes were trying to beg her...

'Please don't leave me... I can't live without you'

Although my tongue was tied to my throat which was full.

I gulped in.

Next minute I saw her walk towards me...

Takk takk takk takkk....

Her pointed stilettos made a sharp sound on the wooden surface of the corridor...

She walked near me ..

Her eyes captured mine...

She walked past me...

There was pin drop silence while I, Vish and Aniruddh kept looking at her wondering what she was doing!!!

Siya stood infront of Vedika with folded hands...

S: Hi... Let me introduce myself to you again... I'm Siya...

V: Siya please...I wanted to talk yo you about...

S: Your pregnancy?

V: It's Raghav's baby Siya... It was a passionate moment and we...

Siya showed her hand to Vedika 🤚

S: Ok... A pregnant woman shouldn't be standing like this and talking ...come...let's sit somewhere...

Ummmm...Appy can you please ask the pub manager to get us a table setup in the backyard please!!!'

Aniruddh was shocked... although he calmly nodded his head and said a 'O.K.'

While I and Vish were looking at Siya in a shock.

***

Seats were put up in backyard...

Siya took her seat first.

Not once she looked at my face now.

We all were shocked seeing her wierd behaviour...

I was expecting her to shout or scream but she was behaving like she didn't care.

She didn't give me a damn!!!

She didn't bother a heck!!!

She didn't care two hooves!!!

She wasnt giving any Fuck!!!

I was already thinking about how to bribe the divorce lawyer to not let her divorce me and drag the case....

I didn't want to have a divorce..

I....
I want her...

I need her...

I...

Love...

'Please take a seat Vedika' she crashed my thoughts through...

Vedika took a seat next to me.

Everyone sat down.

'Coffee? Juice anyone???'

She asked casually. I thought she has got a shock because in this situation where life is been squeezed out like a juice...she is offering us one.

My eyes narrowed and I looked at her with a frustrated look.

She didn't bother to see my face.

Vedika looked at her and finally spoke out in frustration...

'Im not here to attend a party Siya!!! I'm pregnant and this is your husband's child. I need him to accept it. You can look at these reports. '.

She started taking the reports out and started showing it to Siya...

'This is my pregnancy confirmation report from MMC Hospital and this is paterni'

While Siya again signed her to stop 🤚

Vedika stopped talking...

'Its fine Vedika...I don't need them'

While Vedika quickly said...
'But Siya these are genuine reports...you must believe'

That's when Siya cut her in between saying...

'Did I say I don't??? I believe you Vedika..' she said.

And there my heart was broken into million pieces!

She doesn't trust me???

She believes her???

I didn't know what to say!

I had tears in my eyes. And my fists were clenched. I was angry as well as hurt!

Vish and Aniruddh were shocked...

Aniruddh tried to say something...

'Siya...once listen to Raghav'
And she cut him in between saying...

'Appy ... Please...I can handle this' and she silently asked Aniruddh to be a silent spectator and he simply nodded his head.

While Siya turned towards Vedika and asked...

S: So... All good with you and baby?

V: Huhh???

S: I asked if everything is OK with the baby and you...I mean any complications???

I stared at her like she was an alien... Well so did Vedika ... Aniruddh and Vish!!!

Has she hit her head into a wall or something? What questions is she asking???

V: Ummm... Ahhh... N..no... All good... Thanks.

S: Hmmm so tell me what do you need??

V: What question is that... I need my baby's rights... I want my baby to have the right to be rightfully called as Raghav Prabhu's son.

I was shooting daggers at this disgusting female next to me!!!

I looked at Siya again...

She was calm like water.

All that slipped from her mouth was

'Sure!!!'

I was like 'What the Fuck???'

Is she out of her brains???

I protested...

'Siya thats not my baby... although I was drunk..I didn't'

She pretended like I didn't exist there and continued talking to Vedika...

'Dont worry Vedika... Your baby will be the legal heir of Mr Raghav Prabhu's property. The child will get all the love care and nurturing from his father. Raghav will give the child the best of education, best of facilities and lots of love'

She announced!

I froze!!!
