Raj POV:-
I saw Tanish leaving when Sakshi was taken to the OT by nurses. Those nurses called for a doctor, and I fell on the floor with a thud.
For the first time in my life, I am guilty of something.
I felt like I was a part of who made Teja's life hell.
After all, it was my own son who did so many bad things to Teja.
I didn't raise my son good.
My son became such a monster, and I didn't even know about it.
After teaching him everything, still, he hurt that angel who brought happiness to Rajshree and my life.
She became our daughter without expecting anything from us.
Rajshree and Akaash came near me and hugged me. Mr. Arjun patted my head.
I lowered my head in shame as I was feeling like a criminal, Teja's criminal.
" Mr. Kashyap, you didn't do anything wrong to that girl. Dr. Akaash told me about her whipped scars, which formed on her skin permanently. But it's not your fault. It's all Tanish's fault. So, never felt guilty for those things you have never done. I am leaving for now. But I am leaving two of my police officers here for Teja's protection. I will come when she awakes. These are her letters, but take care of them. " Commissioner Arjun said and left after giving me those letters.
Tears are falling from my eyes, so I put my head on Rajshree's shoulder.
" Rajshree, everything went wrong. Our child! We couldn't able to save her. We didn't see her pain which she never saw to us. I will never forgive myself if something happened to her. " I said while tears fell from my eyes.
For the first time, I am shattered to my core.
I looked at those letters and saw that letter Teja left for us.
I didn't read that letter, so I composed myself and showed that letter to Rajshree, and we read the letter together.
" Dear mom and dad,
I love you so much.
You were not my parents by blood. But you always loved me with your whole heart. I am grateful to have you as my parents.
That's the reason I always wore your red heart locket which you gave me on my 17th birthday. " We both smiled as Teja thought we bring happiness in her life. But the truth is the exact opposite. Sad tears fell from our eyes. We controlled ourselves and read further after wiping our tears.
" I want to apologize to you with my whole heart.
I am sorry, mom and dad. I failed to save your grandchildren two times. " She is apologizing for that mistake she has never done. Teja, it wasn't your fault, and our pain of losing our grandchildren is nothing compared to your pain. You were their mother. You were raising them in your womb.
" I never become a perfect daughter-in-law for you.
You gave me so much love unconditionally, but I didn't give you any happiness, but the pain only.
I am a very bad daughter. " No, Teja, you are a perfect daughter for us. But we were the ones who failed to become your parents. We never see the pain you tried to hide from us.
" I wish you will get a new daughter-in-law who will fulfill this home with that happiness. I wasn't able to give you. " No, we don't need any other daughter-in-law except you. But if you decide to separate from Tanish, we will not stop you as we understand you.
" I know I have disappointed you by committing suicide.
But I am tired. I want peace now.
I hope you will forgive me.
Your daughter
Teja " Tears fell from ourselves thinking about the pain she suffered after she came back to India.
We can't even compare her pain.
" I am sorry, Teja. I am sorry. " I said and hugged that letter. Rajshree hugged me too and cried.
" Uncle, it was not your fault. It's all Tanish's fault. Please, don't cry, and let's pray for Teja. " Akaash said sadly and with concern.
He is a good guy, and now I thought he was perfect for my daughter, Teja.
But, I would never force Teja. I would respect her decision.
Please come back, Teja. Your dad and mom are waiting for you.
Albert POV:-
It was my fault.
It was all my fault. I should come back to their life. At least, my children wouldn't suffer this much.
This foolish decision of mine destroyed many lives.
Angelina never got that love from me she deserved.
Arjun must be ashamed to be my son.
Ritu died because of my stupid decision.
Kaya suffered all her life because of me.
And my daughter Teja, that angel of mine, suffered so much that I can't even imagine.
She made herself so strong and became a pillar for her family that I never became.
She took all the pain herself and never showed her pain to anyone.
She did everything, she could do for her family.
She suffered so much in her past that it stabbed my heart into million pieces.
She was kidnapped. She was almost raped at the age of ten. I didn't even think how much pain she felt when those bastards laid their hands on her innocent body.
How scared was she when she tried to do anything to secure her dignity, pride, and innocence?
Nirbhik never treated her like her daughter. How alone she felt for not getting the love from her uncle and grandma?
When she got pregnant and lost her first child, how broken was she, losing her first child?
When society looked at her with disgust, How much pain she felt inside her heart?
When people questioned her character, how disgust she felt with herself and their mentality?
When no one supported her, how alone and scared she felt when she fought with this society?
When she was facing terrible nightmares, how anxious and fear she felt?
After she came back to India after becoming a doctor and found out the truth about her mother's illness, how heartbroken was she?
When Tanish used Kaya in his revenge game, how broken and alone she felt?
When she married him, and he accused her of cheating, how helpless she felt?
When Tanish raped her, how broken, helpless, and disgusted she felt?
When Tanish raised his hands on her and whipped her that gave her permanent marks, how much numbness, helpless and broken she felt?
When Tanish makes out with some other girl in front of her, how did that betrayal she felt?
When Tanish and that girl made my daughter their slave, how heartbroken and helpless she felt?
When she saw me after so many years, how much fakeness and hurt she felt?
When she lost her second child and maa, how dead she felt?
I was never here for her in her crucial time. I understand her hatred for me.
But it's too late for me to ask forgiveness.
But I want to give her that love now if she will give me that chance.
I want to protect her from this cruel world.
But it's too late for me as she faced too much already.
Suddenly, I saw a doctor ran towards the OT but didn't enter inside the room.
" Dr. Akaash, is that true? " She asked Akaash.
" Dr. Deepika, calm down. What do you mean? Can you ask clearly? " Akaash said calmly. He is a gentleman.
" Dr. Teja, actually, I had a night shift, and after that, I didn't see any news and slept in my apartment. Is it true Dr. Teja lost her child? I was her gynecologist when she came to me for her pregnancy. No one even told me about it. " She said, and we all turned towards her and looked at her with curious eyes.
" Yes, it's true. Dr. Teja has committed suicide, and she is now inside the OT. I was the one who did her surgery at that time, that's why we didn't inform you. " Akaash replied sadly.
" Dr. Akaash, she was so happy through her eyes was sad and eye bags. She told me that she took anti-depressant pills in the last three months heavily as her insomnia was at the worst peak. She was lucky that it didn't affect her child. So I prescribed her not to take those pills. " She confessed, and we looked at her with shock.
" What do you mean by insomnia? Can you elaborate more? " Akaash asked.
" Yes, she didn't tell me much, but what she told me was that she was suffering from terrible nightmares. So she wasn't able to get any sleep. She has to take those pills. so she won't get anxiety attacks and terrible nightmares. " She explained, and tears fell from our eyes.
In anger, Akaash punched the near wall and said, " F**k!!! I should not go to that training session. At least I would help her here. I should see her pain through her eyes that day. She looked so pale and weak that day, but I ignored her for my selfishness. I am sorry, Teja. It was all my fault. "
Jassi went towards him and hugged him tightly.
Akaash broke down in his hug and cried and cried.
I never saw a man crying so much for her friend.
I can see he loved my daughter so much.
Soon, Bubbly came and hugged him.
" Calm down, bro. Nothing will happen to my di. She is so strong, and you know about it. We should become her strength and make her alive. We can't let her suffer alone now. " Bubbly said in pain while patted his head.
I smiled as I saw Kaya in her.
Kaya raised her children well, and I felt proud.
I remember all the words she said to me after Kaya's death.
All her words stabbed my heart into million pieces.
I know I destroyed her life too.
I don't know if I will ever get forgiveness from my children, which includes Bubbly too.
Bubbly POV:-
My life shattered into million pieces.
I never thought my family truth would come out like this and broke my family.
I lost my nephew and mother on the same day.
But I never thought of the reason behind her death.
I felt betrayed by my uncle, but my betrayal feeling was nothing compared to my di's feelings.
The most important fact,
I never knew my strong di who became a pillar for our family would break down like this.
I was scared when I saw di's dead eyes.
Because I never saw a living person's dead eyes.
She behaved like a dead living person.
But, I thought it was because we lost our mother.
But I never knew our mother, and I would matter to her this much that she would suffer all those sh*ts alone in her hell marriage.
She never made us suspicious about her marriage. Now I understood why she never answered my texts and messages.
She knew I would find her odd behavior in her texts.
She sacrificed so much for us her dignity, pride, and self-esteem, which she loved more than her life.
Di, how can you never think about yourself first?
But, I hate uncle Albert and Tanish Jija with my guts.
These guys hurt my di and mother so much that I can't even imagine.
Suddenly, the door opened, and we looked at Dr. Harsh Vardhan, who was looking at us with sadness.
Bad thoughts consumed my mind, but I pushed them aside and focused on him.
" Dr. Harsh Vardhan, how is Teja? " Akaash bro asked.
Dr. Harsh Vardhan sighed and said in a sad voice, " Dr. Teja is a neurosurgeon. That's why she used those medicines that could stop her nervous system from working. So she won't feel any pain and died easily. " Everyone held their breath as their breath hitched with this new information.
" But, thank god, Dr. Akaash found her on time. We removed those drugs from her blood. But still, it affects the nervous system that spreads on her hindbrain.
So, the next 48 hours are very critical for her because our medicines are not working on her. She didn't have a will in her to live a happy life. She can hear everyone.
So, I think you all should meet her one by one, who knows which person made her will to live a happy life. " Dr. Harsh Vardhan confessed, and our heart broke.
We don't want to lose her at any cost.
" I will go first. " I heard the most annoying voice, which belongs to non-other than my bastard Jija Ji.
