In the morning...
The rays of the sun fell on Inaya's face thus disturbing her sleep. She tried to open her eyelids but failed in a miserable manner.
Difficultly she finally opened her eyes while trying to get up. She rested her back against the bed as her body was paining. When she glanced at her hands she realized her hands had turned red with bruises and cuts. Not only her hands... The same was with her whole body. She felt as if somebody poured hot oil on her body.
" Maaa ".... She winced as her leg slipped hurting her more.
Inaya, while taking the support of the bed managed to stand up. With slow careful and stumbling steps she inched towards the wash room door. It took her a brief minute to open the door.
She closed the door behind her with shaking hands and stood in front of the mirror. Tears started flowing as she saw the bruises and froze blood on her hands. She with great difficulty removed her dress and stared at her nude frame through the mirror.
Tears drip down her eyes for her body was covered with red marks and dry blood. She closed her eyes determining not to cry any more. She will not fall weak, she will not let her aunt succeed in her cruel plan. She onned the shower letting the water stream off her body making her clench the fists. It felt like someone was pinching infinite needle in her body. She closed her eyes recalling the last night event.
Flash back...
" Inaayaaa ".... Vrushika opened the door with a loud bang scaring the hell out of her. Her eyes were glued on her body, her approach was like a predator toward its prey... Slow yet perilous filled with terror.
She gulped her saliva down in fear as she glanced her aunt approaching her with a belt in her hand while she fumed in anger. Inaya somewhere knew what was coming up and prepared herself for the worst.
THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME SHE'S GOING TO BE THRASHED.
" How dare you haan... How dare you to complain to Mohit about our conversation".... She gave Inaya a tight blow making her scream in pain. She closed her eyes trying to seize the tears.
Aaaahhhhhhh!!!!!
Inaya screamed more loudly as Vrushika begun hitting her with the belt as tightly as she can.... Again and again.
" I was just trying to get you married and look at you b***h. Girls like you cannot stay with a single man you just want to f**k around with different men ".... She mocked Inaya with disgusted glares, beating her black and blue until her vision blackened out of pain falling down on the floor.
But then also, Vrushika gave her one last blow effusing her remaining frustration whilst poor beaten Inaya laid down on the ground like a lifeless body. Her body ached and soon it swell up. Everywhere her cruel aunt gave her the beatings, the bruises and wounds appeared. " Next time think before you complain your uncle about me ".... With that she kicked Inaya in the stomach and closed the door behind with a thud. Outside the door, the cruel lady took a deep fine breath with a grin. "Now that feels better"... She spoke under her breath.
While inside of the room, Inaya was semi conscious and her body went numb. She could hardly feel any sort of pain as each and every cell of her body was burning due to the blows.
She did not even have the strength to move her finger. Suddenly everything went dark and eventually she closed her eyes praying it to be her death.
Flashback end.....
However, life goes on. No matter whether you live in a hell or heaven, your life and the time goes on. So was with poor Inaya. She clad herself in a long black dress so that to hide her bruised hands and neck. She applied concealer to hide the wounds on her faces followed by lipstick. She hated to dress up like that, like a slut but it was needed. Never mind, Picking up her bag she left the room praying for the good.
She was about to leave the house when her evil aunt's voice echoed in the hallway while she came striding toward her with a packet of choco chips. " Freeze there Inaya".... Inaya clutched her bag suppressing her tears and fear.
Her aunt pulled her towards her and spoke glancing at the bag. " Where do you think are you going. And why? "... In both shock and confusion Inaya finally upped her eyes.
" Aunty I'm... I'm going college. Today we have our first exam of the semester.... She replied eyeing the ground while playing with her fingers.
On the other hand, Vrushika raised her brow and exclaimed. " Who told you to go. "... Shocked and surprised Inaya gazed at her in confusion. " Your admission has been cancelled you will no more go to your college. Sit inside the house and learn some household work. Mr. Gopal wants a housewife not any officer "
Inaya's eyes widened hearing her statement. " But uncle had said I shall complete my studi ".... One glare from that cruel lady and Inaya's mouth was sealed.
" You think I will let your uncle do anything like that. ".... She gripped Inaya from the elbow pressing her arm. " Listen Inaya you will not go out of this house any more. And I don't want to hear anything about college or degree from your mouth. Is that clear ".... Inaya can't help but nod in agreement holding back her tears.
" That is like my good girl. Now keep this thing inside and go inside the kitchen ".... She said before leaving whilst pointing her bag. " And haan in the evening Mr. Gopal and his mother are coming to see you... Be ready. ".... She added disappearing in the room.
Leaving misfortunate Inaya to stare at the closed gate of the house realizing how helpless she was.... Also, she hugged her bag tightly... Not only her dreams are going to be dissolved but also her freedom.
Is this the end of her life!!!!!
