Chapter 66: Chapter 66
Author's pov
Orni stirred in her sleep feeling sun rays all over her eyes. Feeling something soft under her, she realised that she was laying on a soft & comfy bed. Her eyes got shot open when she remembered Roman & Rion.
Opening her eyes she looked at her surroundings and of course, it was an unfamiliar room. Looking outside through the window she only saw a vast ocean in front of her. It didn't take a long time for her to realize that this place is an island.
She remembered how VR kidnapped her & her sons. She was angry with VR but she was hurt beyond the level understanding that it was Shivansh who handed her to VR so that he can save Niyati. She can't believe he chose Niyati over her. Doesn't he call her his sister? Then, how can he hand his sister to a monster like VR?
Yes, as expected VR trapped Shivansh so perfectly that Shivansh fell into a dilemma. He wasn't understanding anything at all. So, finally, he did whatever his heart suggested
" Roman......Rion......" Orni called them with a panicked expression but there was no response.
Coming out of the room she noticed a long corridor in front of her. She forwarded her legs and a few seconds later she heard Roman & Rion's voices. They were giggling loudly. A relaxed expression appeared on her face after hearing them. Finally, she reached a huge luxurious living room where Roman & Rion were playing with VR.
Orni saw that VR was blindfolded and he was searching for Roman & Rion. They were looking so happy and adorable while playing. Orni could have admired this scenario if VR was a normal human being and a normal husband. But, he wasn't.
" Daddy, I am here. Catch me," Rion said with his baby voice.
Roman said touching VR suddenly," Catch me, Daddy."
Chuckling brightly VR forwarded his legs. His brows curled with confusion after touching a soft body. Removing the blindfold, he adjusted to the sudden light and found that Orni was standing in front of her. He gulped down looking at her furious eyes.
" Mumma.....Mumma.........He said he is our Daddy too," Roman & Rion said happily running towards Orni.
Both of them hugged her waist while Orni put them behind her protectively. She doesn't want her children near VR. She realised that she has to overcome her fear to face VR. She can't let him win this time. She will face her nightmare bravely.
" Why did you do that? Wasn't everything enough? Ruining my life wasn't enough for you?" Orni asked shaking with anger.
VR tried to touch her shoulder when she shouted getting backwards," Don't. Don't even touch me with your filthy hands."
" Mumma, are you angry with Daddy?" Rion asked getting confused.
Orni replied pointing her finger at VR with hatred," This man isn't your Daddy. He is just a monster. A beast. He separated us from your grandpa and grandma. He is a criminal."
After hearing Orni's words, they tightened their hold around her waist. Both of them looked at VR with fearful eyes. Looking at their expression a nervous expression appeared on VR's face.
Picking them up Orni told them," Stay away from him. He may harm you. Just stay with me always."
They hugged their mother's neck and hid their faces in her nape. Their whole happiness turned into fears after hearing Orni.
" You are scaring the boys," VR said.
Orni snapped at him," Aren't you scary?"
" Angel, please give me a chance to mend my mistakes. I swear I won't fail you this time," VR requested joining his hands in front of her.
Orni replied chuckling sarcastically," Again your fake promises. I am impressed."
" What do you think by keeping me here like a prisoner you will earn my trust and forgiveness!! That's not going to happen ever. Because of you I even lost my sanity at one point but let me remind you that I am not suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. Neither I will forgive you nor I will give you any chance," Orni finished saying and felt peace seeing VR's face clouded with sadness.
Kneeling in front of her, he hugged her legs tightly. She heard him crying but didn't show any emotions on her face.
" Angel, I swear I am a changed man now. I realized what I have done. I am ashamed of my past mistakes. I am sorry," he apologised genuinely but the next moment he was laying on the floor because of the kick Orni gave him.
She screamed at the top of her lungs," I haven't forgotten how you disrespected my father, I know what you thought about my mother. She considered you as her own blood but except for disrespect, you didn't give her anything. And, about me? I haven't forgotten those nights when you used to ra................"
Orni stopped in the middle because of Roman & Rion. Every time she cried while remembering those days. But, today she didn't cry. She doesn't want to cry in front of a despicable person like VR.
" I am not going to be melted by your fake tears. Just let me go to my parents," Orni shouted.
VR replied stubbornly," No, you are staying here with me. You can't leave me."
Orni said rolling her eyes," Neither I will try to escape nor I will try to contact anyone. I believe in my brother. He will come to rescue me from a disgusting man like you."
" And, from this onwards don't even try to talk to me because I feel like vomiting while hearing your voice," Orni told him and of course, her words hurt him.
***************************************
Shivansh was fulfilling the remaining formalities of the hospital and Niyati was standing behind him holding Neela in her embrace. Neela was sleeping peacefully on her mother's shoulder. Today, Niyati was discharged from the hospital. She was admitted to the hospital right after Shivansh rescued her from VR.
" Shivansh Raichand," Someone called from behind and Shivansh got startled by the sudden voice.
Niyati & Shivansh looked behind and found Sanjay & Srilekha. Sanjay was looking at Shivansh with furious eyes whereas Srilekha was looking at Shivansh with teary eyes.
Sanjay inquired angrily," Where is my daughter?"
" Mr Patel, you should hear me ou.........." Shivansh couldn't complete his sentence when Sanjay's voice boomed through the whole area like a thunderstorm and everyone looked at them with curious eyes.
Sanjay yelled making Shivansh lower his head," You handed over my daughter to that bastard, right? Satya sir has told me about your deeds."
" I will find out Orni very soon. Please, give me some time," Shivansh requested but Sanjay wasn't in any mood to hear.
Sanjay responded seething with rage," Finding out!! Do you have any idea what Orni is going through right now? She despises that man and you have handed over her to him. That bastard is going to torture my daughter again and this time her children are involved too. How could you do that?"
" I will save my sister anyhow. Have some trust in me," Shivansh assured with determination but Sanjay wasn't convinced.
Sanjay screamed at the top of his lungs," Trust!!! I trusted you blindly, my daughter trusted you blindly and what you did in the end? You backstabbed us by giving Orni back to VR. You are her brother, right? Then how could you do this to your sister? What kind of brother are you? You knew about her mental state and still, you returned her to VR!! If you wanted to give her back to VR then why did you save her in the first place? You should have let her die instead of letting her suffer in VR's hands again."
Saying all these Sanjay bursts into tears while Srilekha started consoling him. She was also sobbing just imagining Orni's situation.
This time Shivansh lowered his eyes due to shame and a tear threatened to roll down his eyes. He fisted his palm tightly to suppress his emotions but nothing was working. The guilt was stabbing him repeatedly right into his chest.
" Where I am going to find my daughter? My Orni," Sanjay whispered and hugged Srilekha's waist tightly who was looking at Shivansh with helpless eyes.
Then, Shivansh kneeled in front of Sanjay and promised holding his hands," Mr Patel, if Orni is your daughter then she is my sister too. I am worried for her just like you and my Dad. I promise you that I will find her out anyhow and punish VR with my own hands. Just give me a little bit of time."
Sanjay didn't utter any words and just shed some tears. Sanjay was holding one of Orni's teddy bears and cried loudly looking at it. He hugged the small teddy bear imagining Orni and prayed for Orni's safety.
***************************************
Shivansh entered the room and found Sanjay laying on the hospital bed. He also noticed Srilekha who was sitting beside Sanjay holding one of his hands. She was shedding her tears silently looking at Sanjay's face and didn't notice Shivansh yet.
Sanjay couldn't bear the loss of his daughter and fell ill. Finally, he ended up in the hospital making Shivansh more guilty.
" What did the doctor say?" Shivansh asked Srilekha.
Wiping away her tears she answered with a barely audible voice," He will get better soon."
Shivansh only hummed and having no other words to say he thought to leave the room. He will just leave the room when a hand held his wrist. He looked behind and it was Srilekha.
" Please, save my daughter," She requested Shivansh with teary eyes.
Shivansh nodded his head when she started saying with her trembling voice," I know that you were helpless and that's why you returned Orni to VR. I can understand your turmoil but no matter what I want my daughter in my embrace. Do something as soon as possible. It's a mother's request."
Saying that she joined her hands in front of Shivansh and looked down. Shivansh held her hands and tried to utter some consoling word but no word was coming out of his mouth.
" Please, Pray to God," that's what Shivansh could say more and left the room.
