this chapter triggered me so bad that my hands kept on shaking while writing this😭😭😭

author's pov

with a deep breath she finally went inside the house , giving a small smile to the lady who took her coat away , vridha walked towards the living room hoping to find someone

"aare vridha tumne bataya nahi tum aane wali ho" riya hugged her with a smile so fake that even artificial jewellery would look real in front of it , pushing her away vridha made herself comfortable on the couch

eating the chocolate chip cookies from the jar she said "call everyone i need to talk something important" she looked unbothered but deep down , she could feel her hands shake , the heat in her body kept on rising as she tried hard not to continuously tap her foot on the ground

"whatever you're planning , drop it" a chuckle left vridha's mouth , its funny how people think everything revolves around them and they feel like they're in power but in reality they're nothing but scared pawns in this game of chess , weakest and ordinary.

"and here i thought you finally mastered the art of being an obedient people pleaser , father dearest would be delighted when he finds this skill tho" a disappointed tch sound left her mouth as she continued munching on those cookies (don't mind me i am seriously craving some)

before riya could reply , mr malhotra entered the room with an already angry look on his face "DRISHTI , DHRISHTI KAHA HO ABHI KE ABHI YAHA AAO" screaming his wife's name

he manically moved around the house kicking the cookie jar making vridha roll her eyes "jo chiz ghar mae passnd aayi thi usse hi laat maardi" murmuring under her breath as she pretended to enjoy the drama but honestly she was scared

it felt like the past was repeating again , her mother came running with worry on her face , so did priya , walking towards her he raised his hand to slap him

but before he could , vridha came in between "keep your hands to yourself , i've reminded you that a lot of times" the whole scenario triggered her and before she even knew her whole childhood repeated

the slap landed on vridha's cheek as her brain froze for a moment , she couldn't believe what just happened , it was like everything paused and the silence haunted her

"you don't talk to me like that" the house echoed with screams as all the maids were taught to leave everytime they hear a sound

"NO , TODAY I WILL SPEAK , I AM TIRED OF RUINING EVERYTHING JUST BECAUSE OF YOU"

she had enough , since childhood vridha always used to make sure nobody is hurt and the moment she finally raised her voice , she started getting those punches and slaps instead of her mother and sisters

"all my life ive been nothing but unhappy just because mom thought it was a great idea not to get divorced , i thought my siblings would support me , would care for me BUT I FORGOT THAT IN THE END WE ALL ARE YOUR CHILDREN FATHER"
