Kabir--

Next day I woke up with the sound of my phone continuos rings, yesterday i slept on the couch placed inside my office here in the penthouse, as I got up i felt a sudden string of pain in my back and head.

I slowly move towards the table and pick the call it's from mom.

"Hey mom! Good morning!" I greet her in my raspy, goggy voice.

"Agastya did you just woke up?" She questioned from the other side.

"Umm...yeah mom." I replied while rubbing my eyes to clear them.

"Agastya son you know today is surbhi's and Saanvi's barsi (death anniversary)?" She questioned again.

By hearing the name Saanvi.... Send shivers to my spine. She's my little baby sister. Another female of my life whom I love the most.

I felt my throat burn with unshed tears. I hear mom sobs lightly.

"Mo-mom!" I manage to voice out myself.

"Mom ple-please don't cry. Please." I said, my tears start falling whom I was trying not to shed.

"Agastya, i know i also don't want to cry. But she's my daughter." She said sound sad and low. Yes she's indeed her daughter and she's having every right to cry over her loss. But I can't see or hear her crying.

"Mom i know she's my baby sister too. I missed her mom." I said after a short pause, silently crying.

"I missed her too son. Just come on time." She said changing the whole topic.

"Ok! mom." I said.

"Agastya??" She called me.

"Yeah mom." I replied.

"Bring Aarohi with you as well. It's her mother's death anniversary too." She said sounding normal. Or better TRY to sounding normal.

"What? No mom. I never bring her in this." I almost shout.

"Agastya son, Surbhi is her mother too. Till now Singhania's didn't let her come neither her uncle wanted to, but this year is different she's your wife." She tried to reason me.

"Look mom, either surbhi unty is her mother or not, I'll not bring her to the temple for this barsi poojan (death anniversary worship). Also she's not my damm WIFE." I shout.

"Agastya keep your voice down." She shouts back.

"Mom how can you forget she's the reason why Saanvi is not between us. She's the whole damm reason." I shout back. Till now I was controlling my anger, my hate but now I just wanted to show Aarohi her actual place.

"Agastya saanvi is not just your sister but my daughter too. And bygones are bygones. We can't control live or death. We just pray to god for our loved ones long life but we can't just control it. Also she's not the culprit." She tried to reason.

"Look mom you may forgive her but not me. And till I'm alive she's not gonna come there. End of discussion." I said and cut the call before she said anything more on the behalf of aarohi's side.

I took a long deep breath to calm myself. I just wish that she didn't come in front of my eyes today. Or else I also don't know what I did with her.

I thought and walk out towards my room.

But today, luck was not her side and sadly not mine too. I saw her coming out of her room. But before i lash out myself on her i walked in my room, slamming the door shut behind me.

I took a long cold shower to calm my angry nerves which was ready to burst in anger. I wore white kurta and shoes walk out of my room.

I just wanted to move out from the house before I saw her again.

As i was about to exit the main door, she called me from behind. Fuck!!

"Agastya?" She called and i stop on my steps. But didn't turn.

"I'm sorry for yesterday. I was dreaming something about and... Uh I'm sorry please forgive me." She said in her fake sweet and innocent voice. And here my self control broke.

I turn around and move closer to her in few steps. Held her tightly and painfully from her shoulders. I heard her gasp.

"Forgive you uhh? Forgive you?? A murderer, a culprit which is the cause of today's event years back?" I shout with top of my voice taking her shoulders into a death grip. I dig my nails deep in her flesh from the above of the sleeves.

"Aga--agastya what are you talking.." i didn't let her complete her nonsense.

"Just shut the fuck up. Just shut up... I hate you.... I hate every inch, every pounce of yours. I just bare you because of my Childerns." With my each word i press my nails more into her shoulders.

"Leave me you're hurting me." She whispered in her small voice.

"Hurting you? Huh and what you do to me and my family including yours? Huh... The pain you give us years back did we ever able to heel that up till now? Tell me." I shout more and more. I saw her tears running like a water fall from her eyes making her face all red.

"I just hate you. And don't show me your face as much as you can. Stay away from me and after giving birth just leave us fucking alone." I said and finally left her with a jerk.

I felt wet on my fingers i notice blood their but I wipe my hands with my handkerchief and dump it in the dustbin before moving out. I care less for now to see her wounds.

I furiously drive towards Kapoor's mansion. From there whole family go to the temple.

AAROHI--

I was guilty for my accusations on him last night. So i decide to ask for sorry to him.

At first when I saw him going into his bedroom i decide not to say anything because his sour face telling he's not in the mood right now.

I moved down and prepare a healthy breakfast for him. Waiting for him to come down. As I saw him coming down i slowly walked out but when I saw him going out I can't control but to call him.

But after what he say and did it make me regret on my choice of asking forgiveness to him today.

Today.... The day of my mother's death. My bestfriend's death, yes Saanvi is my bestfriend along with Agastya. The day when everyone including my father and brother start accusing me about something I never did in the first place.

Today they mark me as a murderer.

As i lost my appetite I reached inside my room and stand in front of the bathroom mirror looking myself.

My baby pink top is now contain dark red blood spots near my shoulders side. As Agastya dig his nails inside my flesh ruthlessly.

I remove my top and examine my wound I saw four cuts on my both shoulders. The whole area turn red and sour in pain.

I clean up my wounds and bandage them. Till now my tears which are continuously flowing stop now. I feel nothing just blank. Just blank!!

Once more I saw myself in the mirror and walk to the bed side. As i sat someone knock on my door. And absent mindedly I said 'come in'.

"Aarohi?" I heard a male voice which belongs from Shaurya brother.

"What are you doing here?" I asked in low voice. Because he needs to be in the temple doing the rituals of death anniversary.

"I'm here to give you this." He said forwarding a small wooden box.

First I look at him and then the box and then again him.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because it's something mom asked to give you when she was on her death bed." He said. His voice show hurt and pain.

Is it true that because of me everyone suffer. At the very young age a son lost his mother and A brother lost his sister? Is it all my fault.

Maybe yes!!

I thought and tears once again found their way to leak from my eyes.

"Take this Aarohi." He said, today his voice holding some different emotions.

Pain, hurt, missing, loneliness, fondness of mother's love and maybe hate.

Hate for me.

I slowly took the box from his hand and before i said anything he leaves from their like a wind.

I touch the box with teary eyes, and place the box on the bed, i laid besides it on my stomach crying my eyes out.

I'm not a murderer!!!
