Author's pov

When Sia had a panic attack, her family got worried about her. After so much time, pain, love, they have got their princess back. But now, again she was to sink into depression.
This time because of the death of her unborn child.

But, for a mother who has nourished it for 6 months inside her, with her blood, it was the biggest loss.
A loss no one can understand better than her.

Two different souls were burning.
One was Sia, who on one hand was guilty for her child's death, and on other hand, on Raghav, for his cheating.

And then there was Raghav. Who once again has lost his everything. His love, his wife and his child.

He didn't expect, that, that misunderstanding will again ruin his beautiful life with his Sia.

Everything was going perfect, he had again bloomed the flower of love in her heart for him. But again, god has snatched his happiness.

At age of 20, when he lost his parents, everyone told him, that there's always a good hidden in bad happenings.

When Sia misunderstood him, he was still positive that everything will be alright.

When she got into accident, and lost their child, still he did not lose his faith.

When he came to know that, she had forgot him, there was still a ray of hope, that god would make everything fine.

And finally, when he was going to have his share of happiness in life, again....again, everything got snatched from him.

He was feeling, that his life was like sand, everything was just kept on slipping from his hands. The more tightly he tried to hold, the more quicker it flowed...

Raghav didn't know where to go, because he didn't has any destination. His life started from Sia and ended there only.

It was 3 in the morning, sky was pitch dark, and Raghav was just walking. He had left hospital at 11 pm, and he was wandering non stop since 4 hours.

And in hospital, Sia was laying on her bed, staring at the white roof, thinking about her barren life. Thinking, which sins she did in last birth, that she had to lose her baby.
Somewhere in her heart, she knew that Raghav is innocent, the wife and lover in her was yelling that he is not a cheater, he is only her's.
But the mother in her, who had lost her child, was not able to forgive him. As she eyed him as a murderer.....of their..no...her child.

**********************************************

It's been 1 week since Sia got discharged from hospital.
And 1 week since Sia and Raghav have seen each other face to face.

After that day, Raghav has not once shown his face to anyone. He was just in contact with Amyra over phone, that too because she had told him that everyone at home was worried for him.
The only link between him and Sia was Amyra. She used to call him everyday, just to narrate the whole day of Sia.

Sia's pov

Raghav....Raghav....I am sorry....I am really sorry....but I am helpless.
I want to forgive you, but something is stopping me. May be the mother inside me.

May be I lied to my family, that I don't remember the time after my accident. But I do.
How can I forget those special moments I spent with you. How you once again made me fall for you.

But that was when I didn't remember about Vidhi, that bi#ch....how could she? She tried to snatch my love from me, and that too for money???
How shameless!!!

Should I believe Raghav?
Should I give him one chance to prove himself?

how I would I face him?

But where is he? He didn't come once to meet me. Nor in hospital, neither in home. And mom-dad, they too are not saying anything about him.

He is okay na??
Oh god!!! Shit...shit...shit...shit........
I didn't ask them about him, what if he is not well,?
if he is not taking care of himself?
if he is eating anything or not?
if he is sleeping properly or not???

I stood up from my bed, and hurried towards kitchen where mom was working.

"MOM....MOM??" I yelled....

"Sia?? What happened?? You are alright na? You need anything?" She asked panicked.

"Mom, where is Raghav?" I asked without beating around the bush.

"Raghav?"

"Yeah! Where is he?"

"Why are you asking dear..."

"Mom just tell me....I know, that you know where he is.....it's 1 week mom, and he has not come once to meet me, no call, no message. Now com'on, tell me fast, where is he??"

"Are you worried for him?" She asked me cupping my left cheek.

"Why wouldn't I be Mom....I know I am angry with him, but after all he is my HUSBAND...." I shouted...

"He is Fine beta..." she just said and again turned around to continue her work.

"Mom? You did not tell me about his whereabouts?"

"You just know that he is fine....besides, you were the one who didn't want to meet him, or see his face."

"Mom you are mocking me?"

"No beta, I am not mocking you, I am trying to fit some sense in your brain."

"What do you mean??"

"Did you ever think, that why everyone of us are so quite about Raghav's apparent misdoings??" She asked.

"..." before, I could say something, she continued.

"You know your brother and dad, if anyone would try to hurt you by any means, they will cut him/her into pieces.
You remember, in school when you were in 10th standard, some boy teased you about your weight. And then the next day, he was all blue and black, 'cause your not so younger brother had beaten him badly."

"What are you trying to say mom? Just say it clearly." I Said her with confusion written over my face.

"I am trying to say, my princess, that if Raghav would have been actually wrong, do you think, your dad and Karthik have spared him??"

These words of mom pierced me like a spade....

If Raghav would have been guilty, they would never have let him meet me again. And now when I think, it was mostly dad, who was helping him to come close to me.
But what about those pictures.....of Raghav and that bi#*h together??

Were they a scam?

To break our relationship?

To make us apart?

No, if Raghav is right, then I will not spare that girl, who created so much misunderstandings between us....

"Mom, where are those pictures???"
