Under his gaze (his forced bride) by Olivia Jessie (the giving tree read aloud txt) 📕

" But how did uncle let you in? I mean they won't allow someone in the house. " I asked him. He was now sitting beside me. A weird smile spread on his face. 

" Because he is my uncle. And he can never say no to me. " What? Uncle. How could I believe him? He was with him from the starting. All those travel restrictions and ice covered roads were mere excuses to keep me here. 

I didn't say anything. Because I had nothing to say. I should rather commit suicide or better live with my luck. I had to accept that maybe a happy home environment was not in my life. I wanted kids  . And a happy family. But now I was just praying to die. 

" We will leave this house tomorrow. I have something to fix here first. Then we will go back to delhi. I think this place won't work for us . " He spoke stretching his arms. I was so done with this cat and mouse game. 

But once I read that " a woman tries seven times before she finally escapes an abusive home. " I had too tried four or five times. Maybe two more chances. But I really had no idea when. 

Sharad was home I could hear his jeep being parked outside. He knocked on the door and some heavy and angry footsteps walked through the living room. Mr bharadwaj was angry. But why? 

" Let's go. The drama starts now . " He held my hand and we both went out. What drama? What had he really done to get in? Or manipulate his uncle. 

Mr bharadwaj stood in front of sharad with few papers shouting at him. He kept him hitting with those papers on his face. Sharad shook his face. It was about the girl. He knew about his affair. Maybe this was the weakness Advay against them. He was really cunning. 

" Papa please listen. " Sharad tried to speak but a hard slap landed on his cheek. Advay chuckled beside me. It was so terrifying to witness all that. Just yesterday they were happy family and now. Kyra was in her room. I wanted to check on her but Advay won't let me go. 

" Why? Really? You had to sleep with her? Pregnant? " He threw the papers away  . Sharad was so shocked as was me  . Pregnant  . But I was sure he didn't have any idea about it. Even it was a shocking news for him. He frowned and tried to think hard. His hands were in the air defensively. 

" So. Now the girl will come and stay with him. He needs to leave his wife. " Advay spoke. Mr bharadwaj grabbed his head in loss of hope. I wanted to console him too but I knew better not to touch any man. 

" He is not your so called sweet baby anymore uncle. He ruined the girl. An orphan  and wanted to get away with impregnating her. The girl needs justice " Advay told them with disgust. 

" Oh really. And did your mother get the justice? And what the hell are you doing in my house with Mihika? " Sharad shouted looking at his hand he was holding me by. 

" Don't you dare talk about my mother with your filthy mouth. I will kill you. " He sprinted towards him. But I held his arm. " She is my wife. My wife. " He told him. 

Sharad looked hurt for a minute. His expressions confused me. He couldn't believe me married to Advay. Why was he giving that look? He loved the other girl whom he impregnated. And he should accept her. Atleast for the child. 

The most horrific sin in this world is to kill an embryo. It did nothing wrong. A life shouldn't be snatched away from someone. They too deserve to see the world. 

" Oh. So that's why she ran away. Doing like daddy again. Aren't you? " Sharad was provoking him. And I hated every second of this verbal fight. " You don't deserve her. She will be free one day " Damn. This man wanted me dead or something. 

" Shut up! Shut up! " Advay shouted looking at him with a glint of psychosis in his eyes. " Tujhe main maar dunga agar iske baare mein kuch kaha to. " (I will kill you if you say anything about her. ) he pointed his finger at him. 

" Kyun? Bas hogya? Gay? Trans? Kya hai tu? "  ( Why? Done? Are you gay or trans?)Sharad laughed on his face. I gasped when he left my hand to nearly kill him. 

" Ruk tu  " ( wait) Advay grabbed his collar and threw him on the floor. Sharad kicked him in the guts. Mr bharadwaj finally stopped weeping in a corner and came in between and stopped both of them. And gave two hard punches on both of their faces. 

Tough retired Army man. 

" Don't do this. Stop fighting. " He shouted. " And sharad don't drag my sister in this mess. She is dead  . Have some respect. " His tears showed how much he missed her. 

" Mihika let's go. " He grabbed my arm. " I will come here again with the girl. " Sharad punched the nearby table. I trembled from fear. But this place was too neither good. 

Are you even there? I called out my all Gods. And Advay was back again with his bag. 

" Who is Dr Advay here? " A Manly voice caught our attention. An inspector with a three constables was standing at the door. 

" Yes  I am. " Advay responded. Mr bharadwaj was so afraid that may be he called the cops on sharad. 

" You need to come to the police station with us. " The inspector said. 

" And why so? " Advay spoke in heavy voice. 

" A girl is found dead in the herd of her sheep. And we got to know that you are the last one who met with her and even had a little fight. Her neighbors confirmed " The girl was dead. Did Advay kill her? 

" Impossible. Why would I kill her? " Advay was so shocked. And I knew that he was telling the truth. Because I was very much aware about him. 

The inspector took out a photograph and sharad along with Advay gasped. 

" Swaprna " Sharad said crying. The inspector frowned at him. 

" How do you know her? " He asked suspicious of him. 

" Because he is the one who killed her. You know she was pregnant with his child. " Advay spoke up. 

The inspector was visibly confused so he ordered his constable to arrest them both at the spot  because they knew a lot about the girl. And one of them was definitely the killer.
