Chapter 37

8 months later

Ayla's Pov:

I stared at the twinkling diamond ring on my ring finger fiddling with it, my eyes watered everything happened so fast one moment I was single and the next moment I was engaged to that bastard.

It's been a month since I got engaged to him.

I can't believe that now I'm officially belong to that creature. Yes, he's a monster who destroyed my life completely. There was this tiny bit of hope in me one day I'll get free from him, but I guess I was in some delusional world for even thinking that I would get away from him.

All of my hopes came crushing on me when they ended up getting me tied up to him forever.

I heard a knock on my door making me startled, "Princess, come downstairs. Lunch is ready" I looked at the door deciding whether I should go or not. I shake my head negatively even if I go all they will do talk about him non stop, so it's better if I don't go.

I turn around on the bed while facing my back towards the door. I don't want anyone to disturb me.

"Akka, come let's have lunch" hearing his voice broke something inside me. I closed my eyes pretending to be asleep when I sensed him coming inside my room after knocking it couple of times.

A while later I heard him going out making me open my eyes. One year back if someone had told me my life would be like this, I would have laughed my ass off but now it turned upside down. I never imagined any of this.

I never wanted it.

As I said before I really had this tiny bit of hopes that someday I'll get justice and he would get punished for what he did to me. I was really expecting, I would escape him but never thought those are just samples and my real hell is on the way.

It seems like fate has written something else for me.

I sighed thinking about how fast the night changes.

I heard my phone ringing snapping me out of my thoughts. A shiver ran down my spine thinking it was Arjun making me scrambled out of the bed in hurry to get the phone. I don't want to get another punishment, I furrowed my eyebrows just look how he molded me to his liking. After looking at the caller ID, I closed my eyes in relief.

*Meera*

I just wanted to smash my phone into pieces. Now what else they want from me after ruining my life. I didn't attend the call I don't want to, but she kept on calling me making me clenched my teeth ti supress the anger.

I took a deep breathe to calm down my nerves when I saw her calling me again, having no other way I attended it "Mmm"

"Hey little, did you check your WhatsApp? We have selected few things for your marriage and I have sent some pics to you. Select what you like and let me know huh?"

My lips twitched in amusement as I raised my eyebrows when I heard her like seriously? I shake my head in disbelief it's been months since I heard that word, it's bringing back all of those good memories I had with them.

"But you know what I like that maroon one so much, it would look great on you even rags said the same" her voice brought me back to the reality..

I wonder did I take advantage of when I had the freedom to choose? Because now a days it's always about their likes and wants, not mine

I chuckled when I realised she asked about my likes only to ask me to pick what she wants to buy.

"Hey why are you laughing? Don't you like it? If you don't want it then we will search something else afterall it's you who will gonna have it, so we will get the one you like"

I mentally scoffed at her. She didn't thought about this when urghhh whatever.

"No... No... It's ok.. that one is fine." I replied with a dried tone hoping she would end the conversation soon. I didn't even checked or downloaded the pics she sent to me. I just randomly selected something.

"Oh just fine?" she trailed off as I could hear her disappointed voice making me feel guilty which I shouldn't.

"No, it's... it's actually good. I like it" I closed my eyes while cursing me. Why the fuck am like this? No wonder people take advantage of you.

"Oh really I knew it. This would go good on you."

"Mmmm ok" saying that I ended the call before she could say something.

She lost me when she broke my trust.

All of my friends lost me when they betrayed me.

I clenched my fists tightly, my eyes boiled with rage as I think about that day. I never wanted to talk with those backstabbers.

That manipulative fucker fucking made everyone think that I'm a mad person. I kept my phone on the night stand again, as I tried to forget that day but I couldn't able to forget how they left me alone on that day. They didn't even bother to check on me.

I took a deep breathe to calm down my nerves so many things have happened in these past few months and all I had ever faced was....

Heartbreaks!

That's what I have been getting back to back. It's my friends who broke my heart first.

Ah... no... no... to me they are my ex-friends.

Then comes my parents who have broken it completely. They shattered my heart into pieces. Now a days they are not even acknowledging my feelings.

Who are they and what happened to them?

The one who always put their daughter and their son first are now only thinking about Arjun. It's like they're in some kind of trance under him. Their world revolves around him.

When Arjun asked them about marrying me they agreed immediately. They're so happy about this so called love marriage.

If only they know.

Infact they're more active that him as if he's not. After all its his plan.

They never asked me what I want or what I need in my life. It's all about Arjun.

Arjun this, Arjun that.

Arjun like that, Arjun don't like that.

Then what about me? What about my likes? What about my needs? Why they're all dumping their likes and needs in my life? It's all about them not about me then when will I live for myself?

I scoffed thinking who am I kidding...!!

They had even forgotten they have a son who lost his memory in the car accident which happened three months back.

What an irony!!

He have completely lost his memory.

And my parent's are saying its just a memory loss that he will get back later atleast now he is alive right next to us so we have to be thankful to god.

Like seriously I lost it when I heard about his memory loss but they talked so casually. How could they act this cruel?

It's a fucking memory where we hold so much in them.

But do they mind that? No.

As of them for now my marriage is very important.

And that was the moment I started hating them.

I don't know if anyone ever had this feeling or thoughts but I had this feeling when at first Arjun entered into my family that I will lose my parents someday.

I lost them then and there when they had neglected both of their children in the sake of love.

I mean come again now what is love here? I don't really know.

But right now all I want is him to gain his memory back. He doesn't remember anything. Not even me.

He's the only hope I had and only one who understand me. Even though he's here with me he behaves a complete stranger towards me.

It hurts me more. Every single time it's breaking my heart.

He doesn't even talk to me.

Tears gathered around my eyes thinking about his state and it's all because of me. I'm the cause of his current state.

I can still remember our conversation where he was so worried about me and asking me to tell him.

"Just don't be too late. There will be no one to protect you. Even though I'll believe you no matter what but we can't predict the situations so don't be too late"

And I did.

I did stand up against Arjun and my brother's accident was the result of it. After completing my college I planned to ran away from home with the help of my brother and his friends.

One of his friend's brother is his abroad he was helping me. Everything went smoothly as per our plan.

But on the day when we had planned to execute it all went to vain. Well Arjun ruined it. He somehow got to know about our plan and then he was so furious.

He destroyed our life's. Everyones.

And the one who suffered the most was my me.

To prove me wrong that I am his and there isn't anyway out.

He asked his guards to ran their car over my little brother and he fucking made me watch it.

I knew then and there that I have lost it.

Lost to him.

I regret doing it till now. I shouldn't have planned to escape him. There is no way out for me. He is monster. I'm forever gonna live in his hell.

Till now no one know what was the cause of the accident. Even if I say it's Arjun no one is gonna believe that.
