*Suhas Pov*
I woke up hearing my phone ringing from the bedside table. I lifted it immediately so that her sleep will not disturb and said, "Hello!"
"Sir! Everything is done as per your wish." My P.A said.
"Good! Today I will come there soon and sign them." I said hanging up the phone.
I sighed and turned to sleep for a few more minutes holding her, but saw that she is already awake. I smiled at her and placed my palm on her cheek.
When I did that she closed her eyes and placed her hand on mine. I thought she was going to remove my hand, but she just placed it there.
"Did you forgive me, Navya?" I asked her what I want to know for a few days.
"I don't know!" she replied.
"Thanks for the honesty." I said stealing her words, and she smiled at them.
"So you need to go to the office early?" She asked opening her eyes.
"Yeah! And then when I return I need to tell you something Navya." I replied.
"What is it?" She asked frowning.
"I will tell you when I return from my office. But I want you to promise something." I said looking at her.
"Ok! What promise?" she asked, confused this time.
"I want you to listen to everything I tell you without stopping me. But it is your wish to believe it or not. I just don't want to keep any secrets from you anymore, and I want to start new. So will you hear me out in the evening?" I asked her hoping that she does.
"I will!" She replied after a few minutes.
She placed her hand on my heart and asked, "Is she there in here?"
"No, Navya! She was long gone, so please believe me when I say that I don't think of her at all." I replied holding her hand.
She nodded slowly, and I couldn't help but lean towards her. I leaned slowly so that she can push me away if she wants.
But she didn't so I close our distance and kissed her firmly. I didn't stop with a small peck, but I continued to kiss her without stopping. After nearly more than one month, I am kissing her other than pecks.
I released her when we both actually need some air so that we can breathe. I hugged her tightly for a few minutes because like she said yesterday I am also feeling really scared like something is going to happen.
Maybe it is just a feeling we get when everything seems normal without any problems. I think that must be it! I thought and released her from my hold smiling.
"We need to get ready." She said getting up from the bed and tied her hair into a bun.
When she is doing that I couldn't help but hold her behind. She turned smiling at me, but released herself from me.
We both got ready and went downstairs. When we sat at the table for breakfast, I asked her to serve us in one plate.
She looked at me confused, but did what I asked her to. I smiled and said, "We will just feed each other."
"Why do you want to do that so suddenly?" She asked surprised by my request.
"I just want to!" I replied and fed her one bite.
She too did the same. We finished our breakfast like that. When I am leaving I turned towards her and held her saying, "Why don't you come with me to my office? You will get bored sitting here right?"
"And I will not get bored there?" She asked me teasingly a little.
"Nope! Because I will be there." I replied, smiling and gave another long kiss.
"Now go!" she said, pushing me away, but for each step, I stopped and kissed her.
She smiled and pushed me completely. I glared at her, but again kissed her and left our home.
I reached my office soon and signed the papers. I faxed them to Navya's house fax machine because at this time they will be at their house as it is still early.
After a few minutes, I dialed his number and heard him, saying, "Hello?" after lifting up.
"I hope you got the fax papers. From today onwards, your company is back to yours, and I don't want anything to do with it." I said calmly.
"Why are you doing this now?" He asked, and I know he must be so shocked.
"I don't care about my revenge anymore. I am forgiving you completely." I replied honestly.
"Are you going to leave Navya too?" He asked after a few minutes.
What type of father he is? I thought, shaking my head and said, "No! She is mine, and she will be mine forever."
After that, I hung up and breathed in relief. I so want to go to our home and tell her everything, but I have these loads of meeting in which few are preponed from one-week later today.
I am waiting for the time I can go to my home near my wife...
*Rajeev Pov*
"Hello!" I said, lifting my phone and looked at the clock to see it is 5'o'clock clock already in the evening.
I looked at my wife in front of me who is lying on the bed with complete tiredness. She was told to take bed rest for these three months compulsorily, and she is getting really impatient to do it.
So I decided to stay with her in alternative days without going to the office. I want to take care of her even more, but I couldn't when I realize that she is nothing but a selfish woman.
Actually, I don't even have a right to tell her that because I went into my own depression and didn't even tell everything to Navya. I am also the culprit here, along with them. I failed again to protect my sister.
"Rajeev! I forgot to inform you in the morning that Suhas returned all the shares he took from us that too freely." Dad said sounding happy.
"So what Dad? We let Navya enter the hell about it right." I said, shaking my head and immediately felt the pain of guilt.
"That's why your mom, and I are here to change everything." He said even more happily.
"What do you mean Dad?" I asked my father-in-law completely confused.
"When we got the call from Suhas today morning, we immediately booked any flight we can get for today itself and just reached Mumbai." He replied.
"You are in Mumbai?" I shouted at the phone, and Kavya looked at me shocked hearing my words.
"Yeah! And now we are going to his house to bring Navya back telling her his truth." He replied.
"Dad... no... don't..." I couldn't finish my sentence as he hung up saying he got a cab.
"What happened?" Kavya asked me confused and groaned when she moved.
"Suhas returned all the shares to us so Mom and Dad left for Mumbai immediately to bring Navya back by telling her the truth." I replied in frustration.
"Oh my god! She will not be able to bear the news. Stop them Rajeev." She said panicking.
"That's what I am doing, but he is not lifting his phone at all." I said again cutting the call to call again.
"Then call Suhas and tell him." She said looking at me.
I looked at her frowning because what will happen if I do that. She groaned and said, "He returned the shares which mean he doesn't care about any one of us, which means he cares for her. So he will stop them so just call him."
I nodded and called him pacing around the room. After a few rings he lifted, saying, "Hello Rajeev?"
"Listen, Mom and Dad are coming to your house to tell everything to Navya and take her back." I said without giving him time to say anything else.
"What? He can't do that. She is my wife." He shouted into the phone.
"I don't care about that, but she will be broken if she knows that her parents know this and even after knowing they made her marry you." I said to make him understand.
"I am leaving now." he said hanging up.
"I just hope he will stop them." She said closing her eyes, and I too hope so.
*Navya Pov*
"Navya! Your parents are here." I heard Padma Aunty is saying when I was fidgeting with my hands feeling scared.
"What? Where are they now?" I asked her happily and rushed towards the door.
"I made them sit in the balcony and even placed the tea for them so that you need not to stress yourself for coming down." She replied smiling at me warmly and left the room.
I grinned and rushed out of the room, but groaned when my leg got hit by the door. But I ignored it and rushed towards them.
"Mom! Dad!" I said and hugged them when they stood up looking at me.
"I missed you guys so much. It's been nearly five months." I said releasing them.
"We too missed you so much Navya and it's been nearly two months since you called last time." Mom said and then I remembered that I didn't call them, by the time I got to know about the revenge plan of his thinking, I can never fake in front of them that I am happy.
"We will talk later when we reach our home in Bhopal." Dad said looking around.
"Bhopal?" I asked him confused and moved little back to look at them properly.
"Yes Navya! You need not to live in this torture anymore. He returned the shares and there is nothing with which he can blackmail us." Dad replied happily.
"What are you talking about Dad?" I asked him confused.
"I just didn't accept him for your sister, and I just placed a small condition, but I didn't wait until he finished it. Then I arranged Kavya's marriage and settled her. When he gets to know that after returning, he threatened us that he will destroy us." Dad replied, and I took a step back because I don't know that they know about this.
"Then he bought 60% of our shares and then blackmailed to send all of us to jail if we don't let him marry you. Rajeev tried to reverse his plan, but he failed at it. We couldn't do anything else, so we did as per his wish. But today he transferred all of those shares to us back that too freely. Now you can leave him forever and come with us." He continued not looking at me at all when I continued to step back not believing the words I am hearing from his mouth.
"I don't want to let you stay with that monster son anymore." He said and shook his head in disgust.
But what he doesn't know is which each sentence he is saying I couldn't help but step away from them. They all know about his revenge, but still got me married to him without telling me.
I am dreaming! Yeah, I am just dreaming because this is not true at all. This can never be true. They are joking, I guess. That must be it, they are joking.
My family can never do this to me. They love me! They love me so much that they will bear anything for my happiness.
This is all nothing but a lie. I looked at my parents to see that my dad has a hurt expression, and my mom is consoling him.
This is a lie or it is a dream, or they are just joking. Anything in this is possible except for it being the truth.
Before I could ask them whether this is a lie or a dream or a joke, I realized that I moved back too far away from them.
But I realized that when my foot slipped as the steps start from there, and I started falling backwards...
