chapter 28

When I saw him outside of washroom, I said "why are you still here?". I thought after hearing those ladies's word, he might have  hate himself for supporting someone like me and would left, because this was what always happened with me. Yes, living as a single mother ,when I didn't had any man by my side for my back up, all thoughts that I'm a character less person, they always talks in my back. I'm very well known with this type of situation, even sometimes for this I had to fought with many perverted people. But with time I understood that the most important thing for living was make yourself strong as a mountain.  I thought  Aditya would either going to interrogate me or mock me. So I asked him. But Aditya said "what do you mean! Why I'm here... obviously because I'm waiting for you to take you back". I'm confused with his answer. I said " you don't have to do that, you can return". He asked "why! Do you sprinkle any magic on your wound that it will get better after going washroom". I got annoyed with his behaviour because it was out of expectations. He already knew what people talks about me, he could ignore me because I'm not the same as before, but still he was  not leaving. When I was thinking all this he came to me and hold my arms to support me. But I said "leave me.." . After listening my words also he was not ready to leave. So I got annoyed and pushed him and said "I said leave me, why don't you get it! I'm not the same Smruti...you used to love, now I'm a mother of two kids. I have my  own house, my own job, I never asked for help to anyone and also I never begged to anyone but everyone considered me as a bitch, they never said anything to me on my face but always talks at  my back saying that I got everything by sleeping with other men. That's why I never had any guy as a friend. And now I also can't do that because I don't want my kids to know this humiliation, so please...leave me alone and behave that you don't know me". At the time of saying all these sentences I was crying from the bottom of my heart. It was more like...I was complaining to him. This was the reality of my life for six years. After saying all this I left slowly because my leg was hurting but more than that my heart was in pain. Because he didn't says a word to me and only listen to me. After coming out from that corridor I wiped my tears and slowly walks towards the resting area where Aarav was waiting for me. When I reached there Sudha was already there, when she looked at me she ran towards me and said "are you okay!". She was the someone who can understand what happened to me just looking at my face. She hugged me and said "don't worry everything will be fine soon". She got me a water bottle and let me sit on a chair and checked my wound and said "oh my god, it was bleeding too much you can't run, let me send you hospital". I said "no...no need, just bandage it again after function we will go". She got mad like a mother and said "you are really crazy, how can you be so careless with your own health". I hugged her and said "grand maa, please don't worry I am fine... "Then I thought about Aarav and said " sorry Aarav, i can't run for you...mom is sorry". Aarav was a mature boy, he said "it's ok mom, game is not more important than mom". I hugged Aarav and got really happy with his words and said  "Aarav is the best son of mom". Adwiti was there also she was so terrified with blood that she was sitting at a corner. By seeing us hugging she said "what about me? No one loves me". By saying this she makes a cute expression. We all laughed and I said her to came and hugged them and said "you both are the best gift from heaven for mom, mom loves you both a lot". My adorable kids were the only happiness of my life. I never wished for anything else after I got my kids. Will it  always remain the same!
