67. Drunk and Scared

Atharva's POV

I canceled all the meetings of the day as I was missing my butterfly very badly. So I thought of giving her a surprise by returning early.

I called her the moment I landed in my city about her visit to the doctor. I was excited to give her a surprise and I wanted to reach the mansion before her. I was on my way home when I received a text message.

'Look what your wife is doing behind you'

I have received this kind of message before when I was on the trip telling me that my wife is backstabbing me. I have always ignored them as I trust my butterfly that she can never do this. But this time it was attached with a photograph. In that photograph, there was a girl who was smiling and exactly looking like my butterfly with Rahul?

No, this is not possible. I deleted that photo immediately and blocked the number. My butterfly is at home waiting for me. Someone is just trying to create a misunderstanding between us. I will see him later at the moment I don't want to spoil my mood. I just want to meet her.

"Shreya, Shreya"

I called her name the moment I reached home.

"She hasn't returned yet" Madhu Aunty informed me.

I checked my mobile and it is more than half an hour I talked to her when she was in the hospital and it takes only 20 minutes to reach here. She must have been stuck in traffic.

I dialed her number but she didn't pick it up. Where is her mobile?

'Don't find her at home. It is of no use. She is busy with her ex-boyfriend. If you don't trust me you can check it by yourself'

I again received this message. What the fuck it is? If it is a prank I swear I will not leave that person.

I called the driver.

"Hello, where you people are?"

"Sir, I am waiting for ma'am outside a cafe" the driver replied

"What is she doing in the cafe? I told you to bring her directly to the home. Don't you love your job?"

"So...sorry sir, but she didn't listen to me"

"How could you leave her alone. I want both of you here within 15 minutes or consider yourself fired. Are you getting me?"

"Y...ye...yes"

'Here you are worrying for her and there she is enjoying with her lover'

Who the fuck he is?

I called the number but it was switched off. Dumbass.

"Hello, sir, ma'am is not in the cafe" the driver informed me on the call.

"What the fuck"

"I searched for her everywhere but she is nowhere to be found"

I instantly cut the call and tracked her location, thankfully it was on. I followed the direction and reached the cafe. My phone pinged.

'Go to room no. 3'

I tried to open it but it was locked.

"Give me the room number 3's keys," I asked the manager

"No, sir it is against our policy"

"Do you want me to shut your cafe down?" I said in a threatening tone.

"He...here"

He handed me the keys. I opened it with a faith that she would not be here. And as I opened the door the ground below me slipped.

She was all over him and was smiling when she looked at me. This broke my heart into zillions of pieces. I lost the balance of my mind. I was not in a position to think and judge what is wrong and what is right. The only thing I knew was that if I stay here for more then one second then I do not know what I will do to both of them. I instantly left the place and ordered the driver to take her wherever she wants to go. I set her free as she doesn't like me ordering her and secondly, she never listens to me. I know that she will not return home. Like everyone else she too left me.

SHREYA'S POV

When I came out of the cafe he was not there.

"Where is he?" I asked the driver

"I don't know ma'am. He just ordered me to leave you safely wherever you want to go. And then he left"

"Ok, take me home," I said and wiped my tears.

I reached home and called for him.

"Madhu Masi where is he?" I asked her controlling my tears.

"Is everything fine?" She asked

"Just tell me. Is he at home?"

"He came here searching for you and then he left without telling me anything and he hadn't returned yet"

"Ok"

"Shreya, Shreya" she called me but I ignored her and ran towards my room locking it from inside.

I was feeling disgusting everywhere he touched me. I ran to the bathroom, turned on the shower, and scrubbed every inch of my skin with loofa until it turned red.

"Atharva"

I put my head back on the wall and slipped down against it. At the moment I just want him beside me but he is not here for me. I put my head down on my knee hugging my legs and cried my heart out.

After some time I gathered my energy, wiped my tears, and came out of the bathroom. I looked myself into the mirror my eyes were blood red and lips were swollen.

"I am sorry baby," I said while caressing my stomach.

My eyes fall on my mobile that was beeping because of a low battery. I picked it up and there were 10 missed calls from Atharva. He was calling me when I was in the cafe. I called him but he didn't pick up. I put it on the charging and went down.

It is already 8:00 PM. When will you return Atharva? I need you.

"Have your dinner" Masi said while putting the tray full of food in front of me.

"No, I am not hungry" I was feeling like puking anytime.

"You skipped your lunch too. Just eat it now" she scolded me.

"I will have dinner with him. I promise"

"When will he return?" She asked

"Umm...mm....in 15 minutes. Masi, you can go home. He is on his way"

"I will not until he returns and it is just a matter of 15 minutes."

"Please!! I am fine. I want to stay alone for some time. Please!"

"Ok"

"Thank you"

I called him multiple times but he was not picking the phone. I messaged him but he didn't reply. I was trying my best not to take the stress. I waited for one more hour walking here and there to cut the time. Every minute is feeling like hours. But now it is the limit of my patience.

I called Prem.

"Hello, Prem. Is Atharva with you?"

"No, he is not. I called him in the evening but he didn't answer. Is everything fine Shreya?"

He asked me in a serious tone. I told him everything honestly and he listened to me with utmost seriousness.

"You don't worry. I will bring him back home shortly"

I waited for half an hour. I was getting impatient now. So I called him again.

"Prem, did you found him?"

"Yes, I am on my way"

I was happy.

"Please share the location with me"

"No Shreya, that place is not good for you. Don't worry. I will bring him shortly"

"Ok"

I was just walking here and there near the gate hoping for the doorbell to ring. I was feeling lonely and suffocating.

"Hello, Shreya I am sharing the location with you. I am sorry but you have to come here, he is not listening to me" Prem said on the call.

"Ok"

I ran to the car and told the driver the address. When I entered the bar everyone's eyes turned to me but my eyes were searching for him.

"Who the hell are you to tell me what is right and what is wrong? You must serve the drink so just do that" he shouted at the bartender throwing the bottle on the floor.

My feet were glued to my place. He was ignorant of my presence and Prem's back was facing me.

"You know Prem. My heart is broken into more pieces than this" he said pointing towards the bottle.

"Yes Atharva, now let's go back home. You already had enough" Prem said while pulling his arm.

"NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO," he said while throwing all the things on the floor.

"For whom should I go home, Prem. For whom?"

"Shreya, your wife, your butterfly"

"Butterfly?" he said and started to laugh like a maniac.

"Wo to udh gyi (she flew away)" he said while pointing to the ceiling.

"And she will never return now," he said looking into oblivion.

"She too left me, Everyone I loved left me. I knew it that one day she will also leave me"

"She is waiting for you Atharva. She is with you"

"No, she is not with me, she is with him. I told the driver to take her wherever she wants as she never listens to me .......I was not ready to bring Rahul back but she was adamant to bring him back. And today she was with him, Prem. She was with him. My blood boils when someone looks at her in the wrong way and she was...."

"But you trust her na,"

"I don't know anything. My mind stopped working the moment I saw her with him. I trusted her more than I trust myself. Every beat of my heart is still saying that she is innocent but what about my eyes Prem? What about the position in which I saw them." he said while gulping another glass of drink.

"Many times it is not necessary that what we see is right. It could be a misunderstanding. You are jumping to the conclusion without listening to her"

Prem tried to convince him but he was lost in his world without giving him an ear.

"This is all my fault. I failed to give her the kind of love she wanted. That's why she went to him na. It is completely my fault"

Why is he blaming himself?

"It is not like that. You didn't fail. It is just a misunderstanding Atharva. Please come with me"

"No, I will never go home now. Home is not home without her. I cannot live without her. And she is no more with me. She is gone. She too left me alone. I am born to live alone"

"Atharva," I called him by putting my hand on his shoulder.

"Butterfly? Are you here? I am not dreaming na"

"Yes I am here, you are not dreaming"

"But you were with Rahul"

"We...we will talk about this later. You are not in the right state of your mind. Let's go home. Please"

"You will not leave me na. You will not go to him" he said while holding my hands tightly.

"No, I will never leave you"

He hugged me tightly putting his head on my stomach. I caressed his head. Prem helped him to make him stand on his feet. He has drunk too much. He was continuously mumbling something and was not able to walk. We made him sit in the car anyhow. Prem with the help of security guards lay him on the bed when we reached home.

"Shreya please solve the matter with peace. He is not in his senses. He will not remember even a single word of this when he will wake up in the morning. I have dragged him many times from the bar. He always loses senses whenever he drinks over and today he has crossed all his limits"

I just nodded.

"Believe me Shreya he trusts you. It is just that he found you in such a compromising position that he is not able to accept that you can do it. He has lost his loved ones, he doesn't have even a single person whom he can call as a friend. He has only you that's why he is scared to leave you and somewhere he still fears that one day you will leave him for the kind of person he is. He has already left many things because he thinks that you would not like it and you will leave him alone for his habits. He has a constant fear of losing you and getting alone again. It is just because of that fear he is behaving like this."

I was not able to form any word. My mind was not working anymore.

Our attention was shifted to Atharva who was mumbling something in his sleep.

"If you want I can stay here for the night" he offered

"No, Prem it is completely fine. He is sleeping and I don't think that he would be awake before morning. Plus Aditya is not well he needs you more"

"Ok, but call me anytime if you need me. You know I am always there for you" he said while caressing my head.

"I know"

"I will tell the security to stay extra alert."

I nodded and he gave a last look to Atharva

"Take care"

I went down with him and locked the door. At present, I was not in a situation to think about anything and anyone. I saw the food on the table so I put it in the refrigerator. I opened the stove to make a cup of tea. I wanted to make my mind clear. It was almost done when I heard the voice of Atharva calling me.

"Shreya"
.
.
.
.
.
"Shreya"
.
.
.

He came running to me with falter steps.

"You are here and I was searching for you everywhere," He said while taking me to a bone-crushing hug. His heartbeats were doing a marathon and he was not able to stand properly.

"I saw a nightmare. I saw that you left me alone and you are going far away from me. I don't want to lose you, butterfly" he mumbled against my neck.

"I am right here. I am not going anywhere. Go and sleep. I am coming"

"No, I will not go without you. What if you leave me? You have to come with me or I will sleep here only."

What does he want? I am not able to understand him. He left me alone in the cafe when I needed him the most. And now he is behaving like a child, he is not ready to leave my hand and I know in the morning be would be different.

He pulled me with him.

"Ok, one second"

I turned off the stove and switched off the lights of the kitchen and took him to the room with so much difficulty. He stumbled on the stairs many times.

I laid him on the bed and sat beside him in Indian style and he immediately put his head on my lap holding my dress in a tight fist. I caressed his head and after-hours my head fall back and I drifted into sleep.
