Lost Wife by pokhila (management books to read .txt) 📖

        Arunima , the beautiful name chosen by her late  mother , the name she grew up with , 

       Runi , .....called with so much love and care only by her husband Anirudh , 

       Chhaya , a name ,so new but it holds all her identity , 

                         All belongs to the  same girl , now lying on her bed , thinking about her life ......she tries to recollect when she was the happiest , all her happiness flew away when her father remarried and brought Anu's mother home , Anu was her half sister but she always loved her and little sister always copy her .

                 Step mom never got a chance to beat her but gave a lot of  mental torture , after her father died she stopped her fake love and concern  but to step moms dismay , her father left everything to Arunima , this saved her from staying for long with her step mom , her marriage was fixed with Anirudh as to keep the business amongst the family .

      Anirudh ,never met her , but after their marriage was fixed , exchanged their numbers  and they often talk for long hours when possible . It was during those time he cut her name in short , calling her Runi , it was the sweetest name she was ever called , but the name didn't last long .....

                Chhaya , another beautiful name , the name brought along  with it a whole bundle   of relations.....mom , dad , two brothers and a loving sister .

             Anirudh has blood relation with this family , Runi however don't know where to put him , definitely not a sibling ......

        She never asked for this complicated life , all she wanted was to have someone who will love her unconditionally , accept her with all her faults ,she thought Anirudh was the one .........

           Now she is having second thoughts , these past months she went with the flow , she gave him time , she gave her husband enough time ........

            Looking at him today Arunima felt herself responsible , upto some extent . But the things he said , it is pure immature, she expect more from him . Showing  anger to hide his own shortcomings is not what she expects in her husband , she want a friend , a companion , a lifelong commitment , not someone who hide away from his own faults , he must learn to accept , to admit his mistakes ,wrong doings .....

                 Anirudh  failed , in her eyes , but she cannot forget that he was the one ...

         to put the varmala.............

       to put the red kumkumm , to fill her  ferehead with red vermilion ........

       to tie the nupital chain ....

       and the seven phere , the promise with every single phere .....

         Runi can never forget , his first touch , first kiss .......

                 Amars parents postponed their visit to next month , a marriage ceremony of their  relative . It was better for Chhaya her final exams will be over by that time , but she had her own reason to be happy . 

      ANURADHA ...

                    Anu was Arunima's step sister .....they had nothing in common , she was dusky , mediocore in studies , lazy to do anything , loves to travel , always busy  with the local theatre group  in dancing and singing ,good for nothing  ......but mom always supported , praised her singing and dancing , staying out late at night , all was accepted .

             Anu ......

                       Since the day , Arunima di's marriage was fixed , my  mom was always after me , always       nagging me for all those things that upto now was all good in her eyes . She pass remarks at my appearance , my poor studies , my tasteless dishes ........everything .I was so fed up , I stopped coming to home only at night ,  I sneak after my mom fall asleep . 

                                 When my awara  friends heard about  my sister 's marriage they told me to come with her for a change and that way I can escape my mom , so .....I asked Arunima di , she first took permission from jiju , he agreed , everything was well and good , until that time .

            Two days were left for Arunima di 's  marriage , we were to ready to go to Delhi , all packed , Mom called me to her room and locked the door . What she said , was pure sin , no mother will give this advice to any daughter . When she first said , I thought it was a joke but she was very serious , she told me to consumate ....with jiju before Arunima di .

                     Mom make me agree , I don't know what went wrong with me , my brain ....

      she made me belief that I can lead a luxurious life , a blissful life , that too in a place like London .

     She went furthur that with my look I can never get a goodlooking and rich husband like jiju .

      According to mom to become a second wife is nothing wrong , because she was ........

                         After we reach here , in London jiju was not home for two days and nights , mom rings me up almost every evening to remind me , she  threatened me , there was nothing left in Kolkata , all the property was left in Arunima di's name ,so I cannot even think about going back , I was feeling scared , thinking about my life , my future .

           I feel ashamed ,  when I remember that night ........ I feel like dying ,

              I was already inside di's room , because jiju told he will come home that day , I heard them talking  , I saw my di and jiju getting intimate , they looked so perfect together but I was hiding in the long curtains , shameless , looking at someone's intimate , pure and  spotless love they were sharing .

            At that second , I thought to put an end to moms dirty trick , I cannot ruin my sisters life , she never said a single harsh word to me .

        Then , jiju's phone rang , he went out to receive the call and Arunima di went to bathroom , I got the perfect time to get out of the room , but I thought to switched off the light first , so I went slowly towards the switched board , I put out the light , now it was complete dark , I was finding it difficult to ger to the door .
