His Doll

Chapter 40- Ulterior Motive

After Few months

Abhinav's p.o.v

"Mr Agnihotri, your condition is better from before," Dr Malhotra tod me after checking.

He asked me with his professional tone, " Do you still feel that two persons are talking inside your

head?"

" It's less than before. I don't feel them regularly. But, sometimes I feel that two-person is talking inside

my head," I said rubbing my forehead.

"Well, I have given you some new medicines. Take them regularly. I hope you will get better soon," Dr

Malhotra said and I nodded my head.

I asked him, " What can I do about my anger issue? Sometimes I lose full control over my anger".

He said, " I am giving medicine for your anger issue too. Don't worry". I nodded my head and looked at

him.

He is writing something on his prescription when he said, " I think your personal life is going great?"

I didn't reply to him. My personal life is another fucked up issue for me.

Yes, my personal life is going with too much love and care. Devika is loving me like a mad person. She

has fallen in love with me truly. She is taking care of me like a wife should take care of her husband.

She is taking care of my every need.

Whatever I want, however, I want she gives me everything. Where I intended to make her fall in love,

she really falls in love with me. But I have also become weak for her. I have given her every freedom to

do anything. To make her fall in love with me it's the best way to impress her.

First, I thought that she might betray me that's why I used to send guards with her but after seeing her

love for me I trusted her now, more than myself. Wherever she goes it doesn't bother me because she

loves me. Whatever I will do with her. She will still love me. I have made her totally mad for me.

I don't raise my hand on her anymore and we are living peacefully. I never thought that she will become

so submissive getting some of my care and love. She is really an emotional fool.

I am another fucked up asshole!! Why I am becoming weak for her I don't know. Every day wherever I

am, I feel like returning home early just because of her. I always feel like seeing her, hug her. She waits

for me every night when I will return and we will have dinner together. Sometimes I feel like how will I

be able to live without her!

My trail of thoughts is cut when Dr Malhotra coughed a little to catch my attention. I looked at him and

he said, " I have written all the medicines name. They are less powerful than the previous ones. You

should take them regularly and don't stress yourself".

I nodded my head and come out from the doctor's chamber. I am feeling restless to see her. I should

go home.

Without thinking anything further, I got in the car and started my journey towards our home. I reached

there and my beautiful doll opened the door. Seeing me, she gave me a sweet smile and hugged me.

I also hugged her back. Her sweet smell, soft body is calming my racing nerve. She looked at me and

said caressing my cheeks, " You are looking tired. You should take rest, Abhi".

I don't say anything. I picked her up in bridal style and she said whispering, " What are you doing? We ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

are in the living room area. What if someone sees us?"

I looked at her shy smiling face. She is looking too much alluring. I walked towards our room and laid

her down on the bed. I couldn't control myself anymore and started kissing her lips, jaw and neck

madly. She removed my coat and I removed her saree.

Just in a minute, I opened our clothes and started kissing her. She is enjoying my touches and also

moaning. After a few moments, I am inside her and started thrusting with full force. She always feels

good.

After 5 rounds of our lovemaking session, we both are now tired and she has already slept on my

chest. She can't sleep without resting her head on my chest. It's her habit now. Holding her in my

embrace I feel peace. Am I falling for her? No, I can not fall for her. She is just a pawn here! Nothing

else.

At Morning

I wake up from my bed and found devika is getting ready to go somewhere. She is wearing a light

orange colour saree and looking too pretty. I asked her rubbing my eyes, " Where are you going so

early?"

She replied applying her vermillion, " I am going to meet ma. Yesterday, I talked with the asylum

authority. They told me that ma is recovering. She doesn't behave aggressively anymore".

I smirked and mentally said, " Finally, that bitch is recovering. That means those medicines are

effective. I am waiting for that time when she will fully recover and come out of the asylum. I am damn

sure she can't be the same Bhavani Gupta again whom she used to be".

I am thinking all this when devika nipped her fingers in front of me. She said softly stroking my hairs, "

Won't you go to the office today?"

I hold her waist and kissed her navel and said, " No, I will go with you. Let's see my mother-in-law's

condition. She must be suffering so much".

Hearing me, she looked at me with a surprised expression. Of course, she is surprised. Because I have

never shown any interest to know about her mother's condition as I am the reason for that bitch's

condition. She asked me with a surprised tone, " Are you sure?"

" Of course, I am sure. Just wait for some time. After getting ready we will go together," I said standing

up from the bed.

At Asylum

I am sitting with devika in a waiting room for her mother to come. She is looking very concerned for her

mother. She should be. After all, that bitch is her mother.

I can't wait for that day when I will throw away Bhabani's daughter like trash and she will cry in front of

me to accept her daughter. Just like my mother cried in front of him to not leave her. I still remember

how my mother become trapped between Bhabani and that bastard whom I used to call Baba(father).

Flashback

( " Ma, if he loves Bhabani aunty than why he married you? Why you married him? I asked ma who is

cooking.

She isn't saying anything. She is concentrating on her work. It's been years since he has left us. I am

now 15 years old and Ma has to work as a bar dancer for our expenses.

Ma is struggling to take care of 4 children.

I again asked ma, " you have to tell me everything. Please ma. I am not any child anymore".

She took a deep breath and sat on the kitchen floor. I sat beside her and took her hand on my hand.

I again said, " Please, ma. Tell me everything."

She sighed and started saying, " Your father, your bhabani aunty and I were good friends. We used to

read at the same school. Your father was an orphan but he was very good at study and many activities.

He was also very handsome. He was studying in the school on scholarship. Seeing his all quality your

aunt fall in love with him and they decided to marry. All the time I was supporting them. But, your aunt's

father didn't accept their relationship and left the city with his whole family. Your father was very

devastated at that time. I used to console him as a friend. I wasn't understanding that he started having

feelings for me.

After completing our school we both were admitted to the same college. We were still good friends.

One day he proposed me, but I refused him saying that he is my friend's love. I can not accept his

proposal. But still, every day he used to propose me.

I started having feelings for him when he was beaten because of me by my senior Agnish Batra. That

pervert tried to harm me but your father saved me and get injured. Seeing his protective side I started

having feelings for him and eventually fall in love with him.

I was feeling guilty that I might have betrayed my friend. But your father told me that Bhabani is his

past, now he only loves me. I believed his words and I told my father about him. Though we were rich

we were not proud. Seeing your father's quality my father accepted our relationship and we got married

so early. My father didn't judge your father as an orphan. My father gave your father a job at my father's

company. Your father used to work at my father's company. Everything was going great until Bhabani's

return".

She stopped here and licked her dry lips. She is feeling hurt I know that. I gave her a glass of water

and she drank it.

After drinking the water she started saying, " After many years when I met Bhabani, she was already

married and has moved on her life. Her husband was a very good man. I came to know that she got

married when she was just a teenage girl. After she left the city. I was happy for the reason that she is

at least happy with her husband.

That day when she first came to my house with her husband and child she wasn't expecting Vivek as

my husband. She freaked out but after sometimes she accepted the reality saying that she is a married

woman and Vivek is her past.

I never thought in my life that those persons whom I believed blindly will betray me."

She stopped her saying and now I am understanding what kind of player was my father and what kind

of shameless woman was Bhabani. Even after having a husband, she snatched my mother's man. And

my bastard father was another lunatic.)

Flashback ended

My trail of thoughts is cut when I heard Devika's crying. She is crying holding her mother. Bhabani isn't

saying anything. She is only seeing her surroundings.

Devika and Bhabani are seated on a bench and devika asked her, " How are you, ma? I thought that I

had lost you".

Bhabani looked at devika and blinked her eyes a few times than she looked at me and seeing me her

facial expression get changed.

She is looking at me angrily. Obviously, she is angry with me. After all, I had made her beggar once.

This time she looked at devika and said sternly, " I am fine. How are you? How are Ruhi and Neel?

Devika hugged her tightly and said crying, " We are fine ma. I am very happy that you are recognising

me."

So, the medicines really worked. Bhabani is looking at me with a killer look. I am sure something is

cooking inside her head. Both mother and daughter talked for some time and the asylum authority told

us that they will observe Bhabani for a few months and then release her.

So, for a few months, I have to pretend that I love devika. Do I really love her! No, she is nothing. She

is nothing for me.

The asylum staff is now taking Bhabani to her room when I walked towards her and said sarcastically, "

I hope you enjoyed it here".

She looked at me with full rage but didn't say anything. The hospital staff took her with them and I

smirked.

I am still smirking when I felt Devika's hand on my shoulder. I understood that we have to leave now.

We got into our car and she told me to drop her in the college. I drop her in college and went to my

office. I am feeling contented thinking that my every plan is succeeding.

Devika's p.o.v

" You should have come here early, Mrs Agnihotri," Mrs Singh said.

I sighed and said fixing my gaze on my lap, " I was afraid. Very very afraid."

My one hand was resting on the table. She held my hand and said, " I can understand, Mrs Agnihotri.

You are very young. It's normal to be afraid of such situations."

I looked at her and asked her, " What can I do right now? I want Justice."

She said looking at me carefully, " You are looking fine right now. That means your husband doesn't

beat you anymore".

" Once a monster, always a monster. For the last few months, he is behaving with me nicely. That

doesn't mean I will forget all those humiliations and tortures easily," I said clenching my fist.

My breathing is getting abnormal thinking all those tortures which he gave me.

She gave me a glass of water and I drank it. After taking a few deep breaths I become normal.

Then, She said, " if you want to case a file then you have to show proof. Without proof, the police will

not take any actions. Moreover, your husband is a powerful man. It will not take time for him to come

out on bail. So, you have to have strong proof".

She is right. Without proof, no one will believe me that how I was being abused. He is acting with me

gently recently. I know his intention very well that he is planning to throw me away from his life after

playing with my emotions. Yes, I know that he wants me to fall in love with him. But he doesn't know

that I am not that naive devika anymore. He has played with my body but he can never play with my

emotions. If he throws me away then I will gladly leave him.

But without punishing him how can I leave so easily. He is pretending that he loves me. No, he can

never love nor he can change. Something is roaming inside his psychotic brain. He wants to use me for

his some ulterior motive. I have seen him talking with his mother about me and my mother. This man is

a real psycho. Instead of my mother, he should be in the asylum.

I am behaving with him nicely. He is trusting in me too much that he has stopped sending guards with

me. He doesn't even know that instead of going to college I have come here to a woman's

organisation. I want justice for whatever he had done with me. I have to show his real face to the

police. I want him to go behind the bar in charge of domestic violence and marital rape.

I am sure that this psychopath will return to his beastly mood if I do something which he doesn't like. I

have to use this as an opportunity to gather proof. His beating has become normal for me. For proof, to

show his real face to the police I can again bear his wrath. He has damaged me beyond repair. Call me

a mad or another psycho. I will not spare him. After playing with my body, he tried to play with my

emotions. How can someone steps so low!! I feel disgusted by myself thinking that this man is my

husband. I have taken vows to live with him for seven lives!!

I looked at Mrs Singh and said, " So, you need proof. I will give you proof. Very soon I will send this

man behind the bar".

Then she said looking at some paper, " You can make your case stronger if anyone from your

husband's family supports you and tells the truth to the police".

" You mean any witness?" I asked her. She nodded her head and something popped inside my head. I

know who will be the witness. Only Arnav will help me. He still has some feelings for me. If I try hard

and I am sure I will be able to convince him to go against his brother.

Abhinav's other siblings are still puppets of him. But, Arnav? He will definitely help me. I have to just

talk with him nicely. I will try to convince Arushi. But I am not sure about her. She is a devotee of her

Abhi bhai!!

Maybe I am selfish who will use Arnav's emotion to send his brother behind the bar. Yes, I am selfish.

In this world everyone is selfish!! No one is good.

" You don't have to worry about witnesses. With proper proof and witness I will talk with you, " I told her

and she nodded her head.

After talking with her, I come out of the organization building and told the driver to take me to the bank.

I have some work there.

At Night

Author's p.o.v

"Di, why have you opened bank account in our name? And where did you find so much money to keep

them on the account? Ruhi and Neel both asked Devika.

" Don't ask me anything. Keep this document always with you. I have to keep that money in the bank

and obviously in your names because of your well being," Devika told them with a blank tone.

Neel asked devika with a suspicious voice, " what are you actually planning di?

Devika didn't reply to him and started saying to divert them from her planning topic, " Ma will be with us

very soon".

"Really!" both asked in unison. Devika nodded her head and told them that today she went to meet

their ma. Hearing her, Both are really happy that finally, their. ma is recovering.

Devika thought mentally, " I don't care what ma told in her unstable state. Today, after meeting her I

understand that she is still my that ma who raised me with her love and care.

My whole motive is now to secure my family's future and throw that man behind the bar."

Neel again asked devika, " Di, tell me from where you have found that much money?"

" I have sold the club and the restaurant which your jiju gave me. From that club and restaurant, I have

found the money," Devika told him being defeated in front of his continues questioning. And Neel is

looking at devika like he is trying to understand her.

All the siblings are talking about Ruhi and Neel's upcoming examination when Ruhi asked Devika, " Di,

do you really think we are Vivek uncle's children?"

Devika looked at Ruhi with a blank expression and said, " Don't ever think like that. Both of you are

Kamlesh Gupta's children like me".

They are busy in their talking unknown to the fact that someone has heard Ruhi's statement and

fuming in anger clenching his fist.
