Chapter 12: Chapter 12
Ahana Pov
.
"I don't care" Sid said angrily where tears were not stopping from my eyes, I was just watching him shockingly.
He slapped me .. and then was asking me to leave the house. I couldn't believe that I would feel anything for a person who does not even respect me.
Before I could say anything, Sid grabbed my hand and dragged me towards the door.
"Sid" Sameer called him. He stopped but still he was holding my hand very tightly, it started hurting, but more than these I was getting pain from his words.
"Don't forget this house is mine .. I will decide, Who will live here and who will not, and Ahana will stay here" Sameer said. while Sid turned his face towards him.
"Only one of us will stop here .. either she or me. Now say, Ahana will stay here or me?" he asked Sameer. I couldn't understand what I should say or How to react? I was just
watching both of them.
"Zoya, take her to the room" Sameer said looking at Zoya. while she comes to me and wipe my tears
"Wow .. I didn't know you love your wife's sister more than your brother" Sid said sarcastically and continue "fine, I am going. you stay with this girl"
he was about to leave but Zoya held his hand
"Bhai, stop today, You know what's up tomorrow, please don't go like this'' Zoya said. while Sid looked at her but didn't say anything.
Zoya has told me many times that Sid always listens to her. He always fulfils her wishes and treats her like a real sister. He went towards Sameer and took Aarzoo in his arms.
"Papa" Aarzoo said while hugging him.
"Shh .. baby don't cry, Papa is here with you" He told Arzoo and then went to his room with her. I was just watching him go.
Zoya held my hand and took me to the room. she made me sit on the bed, my tears were not stopping. He slapped me. I never thought that the person whom I would ever want would slap me like this.
I was angry at myself because I started loving the person whom I hate. it's too complicated but one thing i am sure, I will not even look at him until he tells me sorry.
"I love myself more than anyone" I thought and looked at Zoya who was also crying looking at me.
"I apologize on behalf of my brother" she said while hugging me. I did not respond to her words, just embraced her. After some time she went to her room. I just lay down on bed. Sleep was not far away in my eyes. I was crying, weeping and wiping my tears again and again.

I woke up because of the noise outside. Due to crying throughout the night, my head started hurting. I probably slept a while ago only. I got up and went to freshen up. only yesterday things were going on in my mind.
I remember everything about his behaviour, his anger. He slapped me. I closed my eyes under the shower to calm myself then suddenly I remembered his crying face. I had tears in my eyes. I noticed everything yesterday, his anger, his behaviour, he yelling at me, he drank but I didn't notice his eyes which had tears .. There was a strange pain.
"I said it was good that she is dead, otherwise you would kill her or else by being with a person like you, she would kill herself" i recalled my words what i said to him last night. tears fall down from my eyes.
"Oh god I hurt him a lot. What I said to him, whoever's in his place would have slapped me" I thought. I quickly turned off shower , then got ready and went out.
There was light smoke everywhere, the photo of the Anokhi was in centre and the necklace was mounted on it. It did not take me long to understand that today was Anokhi's Shraddh
(author note - in Hinduism shraddh is a ceremony performed in honour of a dead ancestor.)
Ohh God that means today's was a day when Anokhi died, that's why Sid was very angry and he had drunk alcohol yesterday. He was behaving like this because today his wife died. I couldn't understand how to react. My eyes went to Sid, who was just sitting there had no expression on his face. It's like he was there but nor present over there. He was lost and was just looking at Anokhi's photo. I had tears in my eyes. I did not have enough courage to go and sit near him.
I was just looking at him, that's when Zoya came to me.
"You go inside please, I do not want to have a scene again like yesterday. he is already very sad, please go to your room. I am sorry but yesterday, what you said to Bhai was not right. Every moment he dies in memory of Anokhi. He lost his smile. let it be. please go inside." she said.
"I am sorry" I said and went to my room. My tears were not stopping. I understood that I have hurt him a lot. He had a drink, he was not in his sense. I should have thought before saying anything to him. I lay back on the bed. I was just trying to calm myself but there was no use, my tears were not stopping.

After some time, Sid went to Aarzoo's room, she was still sleeping. Seeing that a small smile had come on his face, he started caressing her hair with love. He kissed on Aarzoo's forehead that's when Zoya came into the room and sat near Sid.
"Today is the 1st birthday of my princess. you know what Zoya, Sometimes I am used to thinking, she will hate me when she grows up," he said, a tear fell down from his eyes.
"bhai" Zoya said, controlling her tears
"When she was born, I even refused to take her in my arms. If she came to know this, would she hate me? please answer me, she does he hate me?" he asked looking at Zoya.
"No bhai" she also had tears in her eyes.
"I am not a good father, right?" He asked Zoya. His tears were not stopping, he lovingly held Aarzoo's hand and kissed her with love.
"Not at all bhai, you are the world's best father and when Aarzoo grows up, she herself tells this thing to you" she said while hugging him. Only then her eyes went to the luggage.
"Bhai, where are you going?" she asked.
"You're probably forgetting that your husband told me to leave this house yesterday" he said sarcastically.
"You know Sameer didn't mean that. He just asked last night to lighten up the atmosphere. At night, you were throwing Ahana out of the house and you were angry at that time that's why he said that. On behalf of Sameer, I am sorry but please don't leave like this in anger," she said while holding Sid's hand.
"I never mind what he said in anger. Anyway I had to go for my next mission, you just take care of Arzoo" he said wiping his tears.
"You are leaving because of your mission? Or because of Ahana" she asked.
he doesn't say anything, just passed a small smile.
"When I leave here, the story of Ahana's ruin begins. I will make her such a condition that she will want to kill herself but will not be able to" he thought and took his bags and then he had just left home without meeting anyone else.

I came out of my room at lunch time, my eyes were looking for only Sid, but he was nowhere. I went to the kitchen, Zoya was working there..
"Zoya" I called her name. She looked at me and passed a smile.
"what are you doing" i asked
"Nothing, making breakfast for everyone" She Replied, her voice only showed how sad she was.
"Where is Sid?" I asked him directly. I really wanted to meet Sid and apologize to him…
"He has left"
"Left means" I asked , getting impatient.
"Sid Bhai's anger is very bad. Sameer said you will stay here. so he went away"
"He went away," I thought and a lone tear escaped from my eyes.
