My Husband's Brother

Chapter 12

All four of them were sitting in Ishan's room.. Kavya was holding Mehak's hand and she was smiling looking at them.. "Why are we all sitting like this and why did you bring me here?" Mehak who was now feeling better asked looking at Ishan..

he smiled and kissed her cheeks softly and said "You were too drunk down in the kitchen muchkin, thats why I bought you up".. Kavya was glaring at Ishan while he told this to Mehak.. "You have so changed Ishan" she said and smiled at him..

He smiled her back.. "Mehak can I ask you something" Virat asked Mehak in curiosity and she nodded in a yes.. "Why didn't you get divorced and start a new life..?"Everyone stared at Virat .. Mehak looked at Virat and said " Getting divorced .. Moving on.. all these things might be very simple for you guys cause you are super rich.. for us getting divorced means the society won't let you move on.. They will taunt you to this extent either you commit suicide or you u just suffer from the marriage " Mehak was breathing angrily.. Ishan rubbed her arms to soothe her . ..

"Why didn't you tell your parents .. They might have supported you ??" Kavya said curiously

"I thought the same .. But everytime I wanted to talk to them about it.. My husband use to blackmail me that he would kill my dad if I tell him anything.. " She said not able to control her sobs .

"What a bastard" Virat spoke angrily..

Suddenly she got up from bed and went down, Ishan was about to follow her when she stopped in the middle of three and turned her back towards them.. Three of them were looking at each other as to what Mehak wanted to do.

Mehak slowly lifted her top from her waist to mid waist.. All three was stunned to see her back.. There were marks, lots of marks on her back.. some were almost vanished and some were fading... She lowered her top and turned to them. Their eyes almost popped out of there socket and they were jaw dropped in surprise. Mehak went to virat and closed his mouth with her hands, then she went to Kavya and did the same and then went to Ishan and sat beside him... Both of them turned towards her and asked together "What the f**k is this.." Ishan hold her hands and asked again" what is this..?"

She lowered her eyes and said ."Some unforgetable past which cannot be erased from mind nor from heart.." "please tell everything" Kavya said in shocked tone and held her hand..

Mehak took a deep breathe sighed and said.."It was few years back before my first marraige.. I used to love someone very much, I wanted to marry him and he too wanted to marry me.. But my dad didnot agreed for this marraige because he was of some other cast and my dad wanted me to marry a guy of our caste.. I was not ready to marry anyone apart from him.. But dad fixed my marraige to a man whom I barely know.. Still I tried to be happy with my father's decision .. After marraige I got to know about his love for some other girl and he didnot wanted anything from me.. His girlfriend got to know about me and became insecure about her relationship and so she tried everything possible to make him hate me and he use to beat me with his belt letting his frustation of his girlfriend out on me.. I was quite for sometime thinking about dad but one day his girlfriend tried to burn my face as she thought I was very beautiful and I could easily distract him from his relationship..

After that, I decided to go back home and ask for divorce.. I filed divorce with him and as dad saw my condition he blamed everything on himself and he got a heart attack.. I tried telling him that it was not his fault but he blamed everything on himself and his health got serious... He wanted me to get married to my boyfriend but by then I came to know that he was married to someone and this made him more disheartened and I couldnot see him like this. So I decided that whoever dad asks me to marry now I will do and whatever be the condition I will not tell dad anything.. After some time one of my aunt gave dad a marraige proposal with Viren.. Viren's dadi and my Aunt were close friends.. Dad agreed and I didnt resisted.. After marraige I got to know about Avni.. I was scared that history would repeat itself so I promised Viren not to come in between them and used to stay away from them.. I didnt use to talk to him but Ishan was very kind enough to give me company most of the time and be a very good friend in this lonely house. Even on Viren's birthday I didnt wanted to go but Ishan forced me and again that happened which I thought would happen.. Avni got furious about me ruining her relationship and this made me feel like I am again back to the point where it all started... When i saw Avni in this house and the way she was trying to make Viren hate me I got scared and thought now even Viren would beat me so i locked myself up in the room and didnt come out of the room but Ishan was not ready to leave me alone.. I know with time these scars will go away but the scars and wounds in the heart will take sometime.. " She said and looked at there faces.. They all had tears in their eyes and Ishan was holding her hand tightly.. Kavya rubbed her hand on her shoulder and said " Girl..!! you are stronger than yourself.. We are with you dont worry.."Ishan and Virat nodded and Virat hugged her.. Ishan took Mehak to her room and Kavya and Virat slept in his room..
