OUR MARRIAGE IS JUST A PIECE OF PAPER : EPISODES 71 – 80
Episode 80
Finally, Ansh and I were alone. He went to our room, and I followed.
“Ansh…”
“Hmmmm…”
Why are you behaving like this? Are you not happy?
“You didn’t even have the sweets. Tell me what is going on in your mind.”
“Nothing…” He said and continued taking his clothes from the closest.
I grabbed his hand, stopping him, but to my surprise he jerked it off.
“Ansh… Are you not happy? You are going to be a dad. You loved kids, right? Now we are going to have a new one of our own.”
“Huh!! What little one are you talking about, Ahana?”
These words took me by surprise. I stood like a statue. I thought my baby would make things right for us.
Just for once, he won’t regret what happened between us.
“Ahana… What are you doing? You weren’t supposed to get pregnant. I don’t even know how this is possible. I don’t think-”
“Ansh… Are you doubting me or my integrity?”
“I don’t know. I haven’t seen you since a month. It was maybe just a one night-”
“Ansh… Stop it. You are pathetic.”
“I am pathetic. What are you, Ahana? We signed an agreement, remember? We don’t even consider each other as husband and wife.
What else do you expect? You can tell that Jaai that you went to some stupid hermitage but not your husband…”
“You were eavesdropping on us again…” I gasped.
“Yeah! I was. At least I came to know that he is more important than me. You want to tell him everything first.”
If you heard it, then why didn’t you hear that I wanted the baby’s father to know about it first? I was on the verge of breaking.
“You abandoned me and ran away. How many times I called you, but you being the most irresponsible person on earth left your wife all alone,” I said.
My voice was getting a bit louder, but I didn’t mind now. Dad and grandad’s room’s door would be locked anyways.
The tears had already reached the brim of my eyes. I never expected this from him.
“And then you did the same. You went away with a friend of yours somewhere. And then suddenly you are pregnant…”
“Ansh… Enough is enough now,” I said, holding his collar now.
“You know what? You are correct. The entire mistake is mine.
I really made a big mistake marrying you. I regret it. I should have run away, but then I respect the decisions made by my family, and they too were wrong.
I failed in this part of my wife, but it doesn’t matter anyway now. But you must know one thing. Let it be clear in your empty mind.
This baby is only mine, it’s not yours… And my baby is not a mistake. It is the best thing that has ever happened to me.
And I love it more than anything else in my life… Do you hear that…” Ansh was listening to everything, but his eyes didn’t meet mine.
I left his collar and left the room, taking my nightdress. I think today it was my turn to sleep in the guest room.
Ansh didn’t say a word while I left. Did he really think it’s not our baby…?
How could he do that? I didn’t have any regrets, and it was the most cherished moment of my life.
For once, I didn’t even regret getting married to him. For once… Then why?
The tears were falling down incessantly.
Not knowing if they would stop for once. But I had to be strong. But this time, not for me, but for my sweetheart. My baby.
I kept my hand on my still flat tummy. It will grow and swell in a few weeks.
Hey! Sweetie…. I love you. I’ll be stronger than before now no matter what everyone thinks. I promise you.’
I lay on the bed. I couldn’t sleep. The past one month was terrible. But when the doctor said I was going to be a Mom, it was the best moment.
Ansh disappeared, but luckily he used his credit card and I got his whereabouts. I was glad that he was safe.
That day I felt very dizzy and had a lot of nausea. So I went to the hospital.
There I met our old neighbor, Mrs. Bhatt. She was a gynecologist.

After the check-up, she said that I was pregnant and I am going to be a Mommy.
And things like this are normal in the initial stages since the body is going through changes. I asked her not to inform our house.
I wanted Ansh to know it first. I called him so many times, but he didn’t answer.
Today even in the office, he created a scene. No wonder what has happened to him.
He is being so weird nowadays. I had my pills and closed my eyes. I need a good sleep.
I heard my cell ringing. It was Mir. I checked the watch. It was 5 am. What happened…. I was a bit tensed now.
“Yes… Mir….” I said anxiously.
“Ahana… Can you please come home? Piya is having labor pain.
Ansh isn’t picking up his phone. Piya’s parents are out of station too. Sorry to disturb, but it’s getting unbearable.”
“Mir… Please be calm. I am on my way. I’ll call Jaai, and then we’ll take her to the hospital.”
Saying so, I hung up. Anyways I wasn’t able to sleep. God!! Please help Piya.
I went to the room and saw Ansh sleeping on the couch. He wasn’t even covered.
His cell was lying on the bed. I saw his right hand dangling down the couch. I held it and put it in place.
There I noticed a few scratches. They weren’t deep but looked terrible. How did he get those?
I quickly put some antiseptic cream on it and covered him up. Then I changed my clothes. I didn’t want to disturb him. Let him sleep at least.
If he doesn’t like to hurt me, then why does he do that and then punish himself…
Why Ansh? Why??
I called Jaai and asked him to pick me up.
I was waiting for him near our gate, and he arrived in no time.
“Hana…. Get in quick. Where is Ansh?”
“He is sleeping.”
“What… You didn’t wake him up. You called me instead. Why? Did you guys fight?”
“J… Stop being a detective. Drive fast. Ansh was very tired, and he slept late. We can call him later. Mir is alone, and he needs us.”
MUST READ : HOW TO SLOW DOWN AGING
For once, I don’t know how to react to what Ansh did. This wasn’t what I expected.
Am I angry with him… Or is it just that he is angry, and he has a valid reason to be because he wasn’t informed?
MUST READ : NATURAL CURE FOR PROSTRATE CANCER
Aaarrgghh…. I don’t know what is happening. What is he thinking, but why does my heart still not stop believing that he can’t do this to me? He is not that Ansh which he pretends to be. But my brain tells me that he will fail you again.
“Hana… Are you fine?”
“Huh!! Yeah!! I am worried a bit.”
“Don’t worry… Piya will be fine. She had Mir with her.”
I agreed. He was right. However, what about Ansh and his strong emotions? I don’t believe he’ll be capable of dealing with them on his own.
