Chapter 6

• Sakshi PoV:
• "Did I ask you to do? Don't do anything which I didn't say. Just go to our room and take a rest. You no need to do all this till I feel you are fine. Now go to the room," I said.
• "I am really fine."
• "Shup up. I said go. Just do what I say."
• She left calmly from there. I brought the breakfast for her. She had it calmly.
• "Are you not going to the office?" I asked Randhir.
• "Why? Do you want to call anyone here if I go?" Randhir said.
• I don't understand why he always talks this way. I think he would not say anything only if either of us falls sick. I should leave him soon. I shouldn't react to his words. I should pretend as if I love Ajay and shouldn't tell him the truth that I love only him.
• Suddenly my phone rang and Randhir took the mobile as it's on the table. He saw the name on the display and fumed at me.
• "Who is that?" I said.
• "Your lover," Randhir said.
• "What?"
• The ring was stopped and a message came to the mobile. Randhir threw the mobile at me seeing the message. I didn't understand what happened to him. I went to Randhir and kept my hand on his shoulder to talk.
• "Is everything ok?" I said.
• "You never allow me to be at peace. You are the major problem in my life. Even after the marriage, you didn't change your way and continuing the affair with Ajay," Randhir said.
• "Stop it, Randhir. Don't say one more word. Otherwise I don't know what would I do," I said and Randhir caught my hairs.
• "Otherwise what would you do?? I didn't say anything wrong. You are such a bitch who seduces men."
• I slapped Randhir and he looked at me in shock. He pulled my hairs harder.
• "Randhir, leave me," I said.
• "How dare you to slap me? I will make you realise the result of your slap," Randhir said.
• "This is enough, Randhir. I am not going to tolerate it anymore. Now leave and let me go off. I didn't do anything wrong and don't understand why are you angry with me."
• "Now you want the reason behind my anger. Your lover is the one who called you and messaged you enquiring about your health. How did he know that you are sick if you didn't tell him? Answer me."
• "All these days you are with me day and night. Did I talk or message anyone till now? Did I touch my phone all these days? I don't know how Ajay came to know my health. But surely it's not me who informed him."
• Randhir left the hold on my hairs and went off from the room. Randhir came to me after sometime. I sat on the bed thinking and Randhir threw a box onto her lap. I came out of my thoughts and looked at him.
• "It is for you," Randhir said.
• I opened the box and it's a beautiful diamond necklace.
• "Is it the way to give a gift?" I said.
• "Who said it is a gift? I just gave it to you to wear tonight in the party."
• "Party? But you didn't say anything to me about the party."
• "You are not worth sharing my happiness," Randhir said.
• "I think I am not worth to accompany you to the party too. After all you will feel ashamed in the party as your wife seduces the men there," I said with tears in my eyes and those words effected Randhir to the core.
• "SAKSHI," Randhir shouted at me and his voice and eyes are in full rage. He came near to me and I closed my eyes expecting the worst to come from him now.
• "Open your eyes," Randhir said.
• I opened my eyes but I am hell scared of him. Randhir caught my hairs and made me stand on the floor.
• "I know that you repeated the words which I said to you earlier. But, remember that I won't regret for saying those words to you. I just mean it, Sakshi. You know well why I am talking like that to you.
• Never raise your voice again before me. Now wear this dress and that necklace. I know how to treat you and put you in my control. For me, you are just an object which I owned with my wealth and not even a human being. Now get ready to accompany me to the party."
• He threw a dress at my face and went off from there. I wiped her tears and got ready. He opened the door and lost himself seeing me. I wore the white full length netted dress with full sleeves given by him. I saw him and lowered my gaze blushing at his looks. He came near to her.
• "I am ready, Shall we go?"
• He didn't respond to my words and held me by waist to pull me towards him. He caged me in his tight hug and slowly captured my lips which are shivering by this time with his touch. He kissed me hard and bit my lips. He left me hearing me moaning his name and I tried to move away. But Randhir spinned me and kissed my back without moving his hands from my waist. He again turned me and kissed on the neck giving leaving a few hickeys over there. I moaned but shed tears too.
• "Be silent, my beloved wife. They are the marks given by your husband with love. The duty of a wife is to take whatever husband gives with love. Be a good wife and if you don't know that, I will never hesitate to teach you how a good wife and bed warmer should behave. Now don't upset me by moving away because it's more dangerous for you."
• He unzipped my dress and slowly he removed it. I was in shock with his act and then, he left me.
• "Wear another dress. You shouldn't look this beautiful to anyone except me."
• I nodded and changed the dress. I bent down to take the dress from the floor but he snatched it from me and burnt it.
• "Anything you like will not be your's unless I approve it. I saw you liking this dress before our marriage. I bought it for yo, but not to gift you. If anything we like comes to us, we will be so happy. But the moment we think it's all our's, but it goes off from us, it will be very painful. This is the same feeling I felt when you left me when I thought you are all mine."
• I looked at the floor with tears. Not for the dress, but for his words.
• "Wipe your tears and apply make up to cover the marks. No one should see those hickeys. Make it fast. We are already late."
• I wiped my tears and got ready as soon as possible. He took me to the party. I sat away from everyone as Randhir ordered me to isolate myself from them. Finally the award was announced and Randhir went onto the stage looking at me.
• I was surprised and happy knowing that Randhir won the best entrepreneur award. I stopped smiling as Randhir looked at me. I lowered my gaze remembering the past. Everyone asked Randhir to speak and share the reason behind his success. He took the mike and looked at me again.
• "Good evening,
• I dedicate this award to my staff without whom this success is impossible. Thank you to everyone who helped me to reach this position.
• I would like to mention the name of one special person who is the sole reason behind this great achievement. It's none other than my beloved wife, Mrs. Sakshi Randhir."
• I couldn't understand his words and why he mentioned me as the reason for his victory.
• "It is well said that we would know who truly loves us only in our hardtimes. Sakshi proved her love by being with me in my tough times. She advised, motivated and never left my hand even when I had nothing. She is with me whenever I need someone to help me to cope with the situations. Thank you for everything, Sakshi and I love you."
• I don't know what Randhir said. I left him in his tough times and thought of marrying Ajay. I didn't even care for him once at that time. But now he praised her by attributing the things which I never did for him.
• I came out of my thoughts with the applause of the people around. When I raised my head, I found Randhir in front of me.
• "Let's dance," Randhir smirked.
• I understood his command hidden behind his smile. Even if I say no, he would never listen. So, I gave my hand to him. He took me to the stage and started dancing. He is dancing but slowly he tightened his hold on my back. I screamed but it mixed with the loud music to which everyone are dancing.
• "Randhir, it's hurting. I can't dance."
• "You must dance, my love. Did you get doubt that why did I say exactly the opposite to what you did? Just to make you know what love is and how a wife should behave."
• He slowly moved his hand under my dress at the back touching my skin. His nails grazed into my skin and I felt blood coming out. I bit my lip and caught his blazer tightly to control the pain. Throughout the song, he tortured me in one or the other way.
• While dancing he stepped on my feet intentionally and made me scream. He kept his shoe on my toe throughout the dance which crushed it. The song was finished and I felt relaxed. He pulled me close to him and whispered.
• "Get lost from the party and sit in the car. No one should see your face in the party. At the sametime, you shouldn't leave to the home. Wait in the car until I return," Randhir said.
• Randhir placed a kiss on the forehead in front of everyone and left me with a smile. He signalled me to smile and I tried hard to smile controlling the tears but it became impossible for me. I bent my head and went out from the party. My back where he grazed is paining and my toe became red and burning with pain. I sat in the car and locked the door.
• I heard the sound of someone knocking on the car door. I slid glass of the door and saw Ajay standing there. I composed myself and smiled at hi..
• "Hi, Ajay," I said.
• "Hi, Sakshi. How is everything going on?"
• "Perfect," I said.
• He saw into my eyes and I turned my face.
• "How long are you going to take the blame, Sakshi? Why don't you tell Randhir, the truth? He will understand and forgive you for sure."
• "What's the truth, Ajay? Do you think he will forgive me if I say I left him as he lost everything and realised my mistake later, that made me to hide myself from him for years?"
• "Yes, I am sure he will forgive you if you say the truth and apologise him saying that you have realised your mistake. I know he still loves you. If not he would not marry you."
• "Let it be, Ajay. May be I don't deserve his forgiveness."
• "Sakshi, please understand that you both are suffering because of this misunderstanding."
• "Ajay, please go from here. If Randhir finds us talking, he will be more angry."
• Ajay left and after a few minutes, Randhir came and started the car. He is so silent but his eyes says his mind is not that silent.
• "Randhir, what happened to you?"
• "Did you enjoy the company of Ajay? Actually I thought to come before a few minutes but seeing you and Ajay together, I went back to give love birds some privacy."
• "Ra..Ran..dhir.."
• "Let's talk at our home, baby. Till then be relaxed and enjoy the music. I asked you to sit in the car shutting your mouth but not to enjoy with your boyfriend. I will keep a check to your anger provoking acts today," Randhir said.
