Chapter 69
Author's Pov:
When Neeraj nodded to her to begin. She narrated every single thing to her father in law, who at first refused to believe her. He knew his son did something bad, but he couldn't believe all these.
How could he? His heart started to beat rapidly as he could grasp all of this. He clenched his jaw tightly maybe this is karma. He closed his eyes refusing to believe everything but one look at his daughter in law he knew whatever she was saying was true.
Her eyes were hot from the tears waiting to roll down her cheeks, but she held them back.
She looked so weak yet strong. Just thinking about what his son did to her making his heart clench in fear. What will he say to his wife? How would she react when she learn all of this?
On the other hand, after consulting with his higher officers Neeraj handed over the proof copies to Arjun's dad. His hand shivered while taking those proofs, as he go through all of those copies he looked down in ashame, and didn't know what to say after seeing all these proofs. He gulped down the lump when unknowingly tears came into his eyes, and then rolled down his cheeks.
In the mean time Ayla finished narrating every single thing that his son had done to her, and to her friends. After that the room went to silent for a while, only breathing sounds could be heard since nobody moved or talked.
Arjun's dad wanted to say something but didn't know how to form the words.
"This is for you," she said while forwarding some files to him. He glanced at her hand then looked at her face, and to his astonishment he saw that she was looking down at her legs, as if it she doesn't want to look at her tormenter's father. Regardless she of that she passed the files to him but before he could get it from her, he saw two heavy drops of tears were rolling down her cheeks, and she did not tried to wipe them away.
It's her way of showing him what his son did to her and little did she knew it worked.
He looked away after receiving the files. It's all because of him. He should have warned his son, should have taught him what's good and bad in life, but instead he was too busy to spending his time with his wife and his business world. Now the guilt was so much to endure.
He stood up taking the files with him. He couldn't even look at his lawyer now, "I... I..." He cleared his throat while looking down, "I will be back" saying that he move towards the door with a heavy heart.
Just when he was at the door, a lady clashed onto his chest, before she could fall down on the ground he took hold of that her.
Just an hold of her pety frame he knew who that was, it's non other than his wife. When he looked down at her, she almost looked devastated, furious, worried and sad. Her lips wobbled while looking up at him, without any care about their surroundings she hugged him tightly as she cried on his chest louding.
"Ar- Ajun...!! My son! They... They," making him clenched his jaw tightly but seeing her hiccuping trying so hard to control her cries, he let it aside for now. His hand trembled against her cheek as he tried to wiped down her tears with his thumb. She clutched his hand making him into her eyes which was filled with tears.
"Baby, I... he... our son" he couldn't grasp a single word properly as he didn't know how to convey all of those sins his son did.
"Vikram, where is he? where's my son" again his wife asked him the same all the while those tears were kept flowing down on her face, "They...they took him in...! They are all saying that he killed someone and he...."
He looked away as tears of helplessness rolled down his cheeks. He seriously didn't know what and how to tell his wife that their son had indeed murdered someone. He just kept holding her close to his heart as he could reminisced their past.
He closed his eyes as a single tear rolled down at the corner of his left eye. He hugged her tightly as his wife thrash against his hold, "Tell me! Tell me he didn't do it... Bring him to me!" She yelled at him by holding his collar.
"I.. I can't..!" He whispered, her thrashing came to halt when she heard him say that. How could he say that? She blinked her eyes while looking up at him in confusion.
She gasped when her mind registered his words, "What are you saying?"
He closed his eyes in defeat, "I can't baby! I can't atleast not now. He killed Ayla's best friends, our son he... he" he couldn't able to tell his wife that their son had raped Ayla.
She stumbled back while looking at him in wide eyes "No... No... He wouldn't do that. He loves her"
"No"
She heard a voice behind her husband that's when she realised they had an audience surrounding them. When she saw her daughter in law, she wiped her eyes while going towards her.
She took hold of her hands, "Ayla, my child! There must be an misunderstanding. He wouldn't have done that. He wouldn't have taken someones life.... I... I... I know my son. He's not like that" she tried to
"Huh" Ayla scoffed as she shook her head in amusement, "Really Aunty? Maybe I guess you don't actually know him," Arjun's mother looked confused as she kept looking at her and turned her head towards her husband for an explanation who in return didn't moved an inch.
She again turned towards Ayla for more answers "No, Ayla. I know him, he has gone through so much in his childhood. He wouldn't have done anything like that," She tried to make her daughter in law understand.
"As I said you don't know him, Aunty. Did you know that he raped me daily? Before and after our marriage?" She said without any emotions on her face.
Her mother in law gasped "What," looking bewildered after hearing that word but Ayla ignored that look and continue further,
"He fucking made my friends to leave me alone, he blackmailed me, he threatened my family, he beaten my brother and his friends, he took naked pictures of me, he killed my friends, he killed Aarav the guy I loved, he made Aarav turn into a monster like him. He abused me mentally and physically" Ayla said in a one breathe as she looked directly into her mother in law's eyes, the look on her face was enough for her to stop.
After inhaling sharply, "So, now tell me Aunty, do you really know your son?" Ayla asked her, which took her off guard. All those accusations she heard about her son made her stumble back before she could hold something, her husband took hold of her.
She turned towards him, "What am I hearing?" She pushed him while screaming.
"Baby" he tried to hold her but before he could she swatted his hand away "Why....?? Why....!!!" making him flinch at her scream "It's all... it's all because of you. You made him turn into like this" saying that she turn towards the door making others stunned with her statement.
Ayla was bewildered when she saw how Arjun's mother reacted. She saw how her father in law tried to hold his wife but she kept pushing him and ran away from there while screaming, "He's not my son anymore"
Meanwhile in the outside of the police station, Arjun's father was trying to get hold of his wife. Even at this age she running away from him which he hates the most. He can tolerate anything but not her being away from him.
"Anu..!! Stop it, Anu" He yelled at her while trying to catch up her "Don't make me angry" that made her halt on her steps.
She turned towards with a furious look on her face which made him halt on his steps too. He took cautious step towards her "I... Look I'll try my best to get him out? Ok?" He said thinking she's upset with him because he couldn't do anything about their son, but he also know it was impossible to bring his son out since all the evidence are against him.
"NOOO" She screamed making him stunned.
