"fuck off. I also want to know the answer to his question. Why am I angry with Ahana?"
I was lost in my own thoughts, that's when Sahil called me again.
"We will reach there the day after tomorrow at night and then attack early in the morning," he said.
"good"
I was telling Sahil the way to reach inside the forest, to the village in code language so that even if someone is listening to us, do not be suspicious of us. After a long discussion we decided to kill each and everyone except children’s.
After an hour, I cut the call. My eye went to watch, it's 1.30 p.m. I went out of my room. Don't know, even after all this happened, my eyes were looking for Ahana only. I was looking for her everywhere , that's when my eyes went on Rocky. My anger grew on seeing him. I was about to go back to my room when my gaze went on Ahana, who was standing behind me. Maybe she was going somewhere and about to cross me.
My gaze went to Ahana's lips, there was a cut and her eyes were also red perhaps because of crying. Ahana was about to leave from the side but I held her hand. I cleaned the blood from the corner of her lip.
"who did this?" I asked her angrily. She looked at me with teary eyes.
"Why should I tell you? Don't react to it like you care about me," she said, releasing her hand from my hands.
"Say Ahana, who did all this" I again asked her. before she could say anything Rocky came there and put his hand on her waist and started kissing on her lips in front of me. I wish I could move Rocky away from Ahana, and beat him so much that even he would not be able to recognize himself, but I could not do anything like that even if I wanted to.
Ahana had tears in her eyes. Rocky moves away from her and looks at me.
"What is the problem with my fiancé and what not .. I will see it. Don't worry." he said. He took Ahana with him. I couldn't understand what happened right now, but I was agonized to see tears in her eyes.
"Why was she crying? Rocky was her fiancée then why is she having a problem if he kisses her" I thought. I quickly went towards her room. She was applying cream on her wrist.
"Ahana" I called her name. she looked towards the door and then quickly put her hands behind her back. I came inside the room and sat near her then took her hand in my hand.
"who did this?" i asked looking at her but she didn't say anything and freed her hand in anger from me.
"Rocky did this?" I asked her directly. she looked at me and then angrily turned her face to the other side.
"that motherfucker. I will not leave him," I said. I was about to go to Rocky but Ahana held my hand. I looked at her and she was looking at me angrily.
"What will you say to him when you raise your hands on me?" she said angrily to me and soon realisation hit me badly. I took my eyes down. Ahana left my hand. she had tears in her eyes. I wanted to wipe her tears, but I didn't have courage because maybe the reason for those tears was me.
"Rocky slapped me because you kissed me forcibly. He is my fiancé and he didn't like it that I kissed someone else and you hit me because you think I cheated on you. But tell me one thing, why do you men have to discharge their anger by raising their hands on women. You thought I cheated you, but for once you can ask me what was true. you just accept what you saw and'' she couldn't say further. her tears were not stopping.
After a while she calmed herself and continued what she was saying, " Rocky raised his hands on me because I kissed you. I have told that monster more than 100 times to stay away from me. I never considered him as my fiancé but still he always followed me. I had broken his head if it's not about my" She became silent while speaking again. I don't know why she was suddenly frightened.
"About my... What were you saying?" I asked , looking at her. she didn't respond to me and turned her face to the other side.
"I have to sleep, you can go from here and yes everything that was between us is over. I think you can now go from the village and from this room too" She said. she had tears in her eyes and her anger in her voice was clearly visible. I was about to leave the room but then she called my name. I stopped near the door but I didn't turn towards her.
"Love someone to the extent that your self-respect is retained, otherwise such love becomes a reason to hate life" she said. I didn't say anything to her, just came out of her room. I know what she meant. she loves me madly but not more than herself should I say no more than her own self-respect.
In my mind, only her words were roaming. I was getting angry at myself why I raised my hand on Ahana. She was right, there is no difference between me and that Rocky. The first time, On the Aarzoo's birthday, when I slapped Ahana, I asked Sahil to beat me as my punishment but I made the same mistake again.
I went to my room, I was very angry at myself. I started punching on the wall to calm myself or say to punish myself. I was constantly hitting on the wall. Blood started pouring in my hands, yet I was not able to calm myself. I directly went to Rocky's room, he was sleeping. I punched him on his face without even thinking for one. He suddenly woke up and looked at me angrily.
"what the hell. now you are gone" he said. He started beating me. I was not stopping any of his punches and nor was fighting back. Rocky brought me out of his room and was whacking me continuously. The crowd had gathered around. I started bleeding but didn't fight back. I know I deserve this punishment to hurt her.
I was just facing my punishment when someone called me out loudly. He suddenly stopped. I looked at the front Ahana was standing there. she had tears in her eyes.
"Sid" she again called my name. Don't know why but I had a smile on my face after seeing her. I was about to fall to the ground but she came near me and held me.
"I Am Sorry '' I said while looking at her and finally I got some inner peace. Maybe because of her and I promised to myself, I will never raise my hand on any woman. Not even by mistake. never ever.
