" Inaya, what happened why are you so silent? ".... Her uncle came and sat next to her on the ground in the small garden of their house joining her watch the beautiful stars. She neither replied nor even smiled irking her uncle in the process. " Inaya. What happened, are you angry with me! ".... He inquired caressing her hairs. Suddenly she began crying not being able to stop her tears, If this is her fate then be it. If she has to cry for her whole life then why to stop them and show this cruel world how so called happy she was. Her uncle got panic and pulled her in his arms stroking her hairs lightly. " Something is bothering you, if it is then do tell me Inaya. But please don't cry, your tears kill me ".... His voice cracked as tears filled up in his eyes as well. Inaya after her parent's death have never asked for anything. Whatever her aunt or cousin gave her she happily accepted it... Be it Shikha's old dresses or her used make up. She was always given her rejected things. " Papa ".... Inaya sobbed remembering her father who used to keep her like his princess but here she was being treated like any beggar or slave. " Ohh Inaya! Please tell me how will I come to know what is bothering you otherwise! ".... Mohit stated wiping her tears. Inaya looked up at him and stared at his face as if trying to find some emotions or a reflection of her own father. But nothing could be seen no matter how hard he tried to support her, in the end he would agree with his wife and daughter. In fact she would not want to risk herself again. Her b***h aunt would come again with a belt to thrash her. " Inaya baby I kn---".... She didn't even let him complete and ran away leaving her uncle behind in astonishment. She don't want to share her feelings with anyone not even her uncle, what would he do now.... certainly nothing. Getting inside her room Inaya latched the doors tight crying hysterically. She threw her body on the bed carelessly and let her tears flow continuously. " Why did you leave me alone papa why didn't you let me come with you three during the drive that night. I would have been happy to die with you all then to be tortured here. They hate me! ".... Inaya complained to the photo frame of her family. Very soon her eyes gave up, and she fell asleep while the tears dried up. ******** The next morning she woke up at 6.30 am with no determination or something. Getting ready in her usual dull clothing she went down to begin her daily work as given by her aunt. She firstly prepared the breakfast for the whole family and diet drink for her cousin. She's tending to lose weight these days. She wants to look amazing in front of Arman after all. After the kitchen work Inaya collected the dirty clothes that were mostly of Shikha's. She made her way to the backside of their house and removed a brush and washing powder in order to wash the clothes with her hands. There was washing machine yet her aunt would ask her to wash clothes with hands. She won't like the work of the machine! The time passed in hurry and now it was 10.00 in the morning still the clothes were not done. " Inaya ".... Came Vrushika's sleepy voice from behind. However, Inaya did not reply or say anything but turned her face to look at her who was wearing a nightie with shower cap looking no less than any stupid idiotic woman. " Inaya leave this clothes and go help Shikha with hairs. Today is her dance practice in the college go and help her ".... She said sitting on the bench in the open ground. " I will complete my work first ask Shikha to wait until I finish this all ".... Replied she brushing the clothes while her aunt widened her eyes getting such a reply from poor timid Inaya. " What did you say haan. What did you say! ".... She walked towards her and pulled her up with rage. " How dare you cut my words "... She added digging her nails in Inaya's arm. " Just get away "... But she pushed her with such a force that her aunt fell down on the ground. " I'm not saying anything doesn't mean I will agree to you every time. She is your daughter not mine so go and help her or else I'll go to Diwan Uncle and tell him... That you're training your daughter how to trap his grandson Maahir. Don't underestimate me. And dare you try to impose me with your f*****g decisions ".... Inaya spoke with rudeness horrifying Vrushika for the very first time. " And haan hire yourself a maid, dearest aunty because I'm no more going to do any of you work and I'm going to Mandir right now. Stop me if you can! ".... With this Inaya walked away leaving her aunt sitting on the ground with tightened jaws. Where this girl got this courage from!!!! After she has gone away, she quickly got up and glanced in the surrounding whether anybody witnessed this scenario or not. Luckily there was no one. She quickly came inside the house and clenched her teeth. " How dare you Inaya. ".... Muttering this she removed the same belt from the closet with which she has beaten Inaya last night. She dashed inside her bedroom only to see her getting ready for morning prayer in the Mandir. " Inayaaaa".... Vrushika screamed and approached her. " You have crossed all the limits today I'll show you your real place " Saying thing she raised her hand to hit her.... But but but seems that the cards have been switched now. For Inaya held her hand with one and snatched away the belt with the other. " Not any more aunty dare you touch me then I will SHOW YOU YOUR REAL PLACE ".... She put the belt round her aunt's neck and pulled it tightly choking her throat. " I'm no more the old timid Inaya. So think before you touch me "... She pulled the two ends of the belt and threw her aunt on the bed. Vrushika was taken aback with the sudden transformation in her behaviour. This is something she always feared off. " And one more thing before I return back from Mandir I want you to call off my marriage with that man or else YOU KNOW WHAT I CAN DO! ".... She raised her brow smirking devilishly for the very first time threatening her aunt. To which, Vrushika gulped in horror thinking what to do next. Summoning up the courage she opened her mouth to say something. " Nah nah nah. Not again aunty. Don't you even try to open your mouth. I'm very frustrated now I don't want to raise my hands on you "... Inaya spoke like a psycho shaking her head. " Have you gone mad! ".... Her aunt tried to shout that came out more like a whisper. In return, Inaya said threatening her. " Yesss and you have driven me mad. Stop your drama and do as I say or else " " O.. OK.. Ok I... I will say no to the marriage "... Vrushika said joining her hands while fumbling with words. Smiling brightly she handed belt to her. " And haan... Don't forget to return him the money you'd taken in exchange of me! " She nodded in yes whereas Inaya left smilingly. It's better to help yourself than to ask for help. Vrushika immediately went inside her room and called Mr. Gopal... Saying no to the marriage. If Inaya had taken this step earlier than she would not have been beaten up by her b***h aunt that night. It's better to be late than to never come. Now that she has known the meaning behind the phrase, Inaya was adamant to not let her aunt control her any more. It was now going to be all good!!! Or was it really!!!! To be continued....
