Raakshas - A human demon

Chapter 42- Betrayer

Pari's p.o.v

Hearing me, Niharika stopped her crying and said looking down," Vedant never wanted to force me. It

was my stupidity that made him like that."

" What do you mean, Niharika? Didn't you tell me that Vedant raped you?" I asked her with total

confusion.

She took a deep breath and I saw her beautiful brown doe-like eyes are getting blurred because of

tears. She is hiccupping continuously.

" I..... shouldn't.....have..... tried.....to.....run..... away.....," She said hiccupping and I can sense the

regret in her voice.

I asked her trying to understand what she is actually saying," Niharika, can you tell me everything from

the very first? I am not understanding your puzzling words."

She stared at my face for some time with her wide and teary eyes. She is having a regretting

expression on her face. Her lips are trembling and she is trying to say something but her words are not

coming out from her mouth.

Suddenly, she stood up and started screaming like a madwoman. She is pacing here and there like an

impatient person and screaming.

I become shocked by seeing her condition. She is looking too much disturbed and she is also crying.

" Niharika, are you alright? I asked her trying to calm her down.

She replied screaming," Amma(mother), where is my Amma.......please, tell her to come.......please...."

She is now literally pleading in front of me for someone called Amma. I am wondering who is this

Amma. Is she Niharika's mother? I never heard her talking about any Amma. It's the first time I am

hearing about this Amma.

" Who is Amma, Niharika? Is she your mother? I asked her confusingly.

She didn't reply to my questions. She is pacing here and there. I noticed that she is murmuring

something and pulling her hairs like a crazy person. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

" Niharika, calm.........." I tried to say something when she held my shoulder tightly and said crying," He

killed my Amma. Pari, he snatched the only person I ever loved. I will kill him......I will kill him........"

She said the last part with too much hatred and loath in her voice. Her eyes are showing rage. Then,

She burst into tears and shaking badly like she is having some kind of panic attack. I tried to console

her but nothing is working.

" Niharika, hosh mey aaw( Niharika, come to your sense)," I said shaking her slightly where she is

murmuring only one thing. She is saying that she will kill him. I know she is obviously talking about

Vedant. That bastard has tortured her mercilessly.

Suddenly, she stopped screaming but started whining. She said whining," I am responsible for

everything. I am at fault. Everything happened because of my stupidity."

This time, hearing her I am sure that she has lost her mind and become crazy. She needs a

psychiatrist's help.

What's happening with her? Sometimes she is blaming Vedant and sometimes she is blaming herself.

What's wrong with her?

" Niharika, you need to calm down. Let me check your bo.........." I couldn't complete my sentence when

she fainted. She fell on the floor like a rag doll and her body is slightly shaking.

I bent down to her level and caressed her cheeks. I said worriedly," Niharika, ....Niharika.....open your

eyes, girl......"

I checked her pulse which is very weak. I am sure something is very wrong with her. I would have

checked her properly but I don't have any medical equipment here. I have to call a doctor.

Without wasting any time I called one of the maids and ordered her," Tell Vedant that Niharika has

fainted. Tell him to call a doctor right now."

After one hour

" Pari aunty, what happened to Mommy? Why she isn't opening her eyes? Vedant's 5-year-old son

asked me innocently.

I patted his head and said affectionately," Your mommy will be fine. Don't worry, baby."

Well, Vedant and Niharika has 6 children. Their eldest son is 5 years old, then their triplets consisting

two daughters and one son are 3 year old, their another daughter is 2 year old and the youngest one is

five months old.

Vedant's son nodded his head and went towards his mother. He touched his mother's face lovingly.

A lady doctor is checking Niharika and Vedant is looking at her with his worried eyes. He is looking too

much tensed and upset. I can see emotions in his eyes for Niharika.

" Is she fine?" Vedant asked the doctor worriedly. He is sitting beside Niharika's head holding her one

hand progressively.

The doctor replied with her professional voice," She is suffering from anxiety and stress. I will

recommend you to take her to a psychiatrist. Moreover, she is suffering from anaemia. It's not that good

in this condition."

" What do you mean by this condition?" I and Vedant both asked the doctor confusingly.

The doctor replied," She is 4 weeks pregnant."

Hearing the doctor, my mouth in now hung opened. How? I mean she has given birth five months ago.

She is again pregnant! Hey God! What the hell!!

I looked at Vedant with complete disgust. Is he a sex machine or what? That poor girl has given birth

five months ago and this horny bastard has made her pregnant again. Is he planning to kill her?

I looked at him with full rage who is very happy hearing the news. I saw him kissing Niharika's face and

I cringed mentally.

He said kissing her hand," I am happy that we are going to be parents again. You have made me so

happy."

" But, the pregnancy couldn't be protected, Sir. We need to abort the baby. Her body will not be able to

give birth as she is very weak. This pregnancy can endanger her life," The doctor said making me and

Vedant both shocked.

I said to the doctor hurriedly," Then, abort the baby. We don't want to lose Niharika."

Saying that I looked at Vedant who is looking at me having a void expression on his face. I rolled my

eyes looking at him.

" Pari is right. We should abort the baby. I can't lose my Niha," Vedant said to the doctor and I felt like I

am hearing wrong. I thought that he will not agree but to my utter surprise he agreed to this matter.

After that, the doctor left giving us the prescription. She also gave us a date for the abortion.

Right now, I am alone in the room with Vedant and Niharika. His son has left the room and went to the

garden to play with his siblings.

I looked at Vedant and saw him looking at Niharika with too much love in his eyes.

I cleared my throat to catch his attention. He looked at me with his questioning eyes and I sarcastically

asked," Have you ever heard the name of condoms?

He knitted his brows and I mocked him again," Sometimes control your dick for the sake of this poor

girl. Are you that much horny? Try to think about some family planning."

" Pari, you are crossing your limits. You have no right to talk about our personal matter," He replied

rudely.

I replied dramatically," Oh, Really! I didn't cross my limits. It was you who crossed the limits. You are

responsible for Niharika's condition. And about the right? As a woman I have every right to talk for

Niharika's condition."

Hearing me, he didn't say anything. He just stood up from the bed and snapped at me," Without

knowing anything don't talk too much."

Before I could mock him again, he held my one wrist and literally threw me out of his room.

He locked the door in front of my eyes and yelled angrily," Never come here again. If I see you again

brainwashing Niharika then the consequences will be bad."

Author's p.o.v

Raakshas is sitting inside his home office having a shocked and painful expression on his face. He is

looking too much upset.

He is holding a photo album and seeing some old photos of him, Vedant and Abdul chacha. He is

clutching the photo album tightly like he is trying to control his anger and outburst.

Raakshas walked towards the window and looked outside through it. He is looking at everything

aimlessly.

Suddenly, Raakshas heard some footsteps and understood that someone has entered the room. He

didn't look behind because he knows who is it. It's none other than Abdul chacha.

" You called me urgently? Is everything ok? Abdul chacha asked.

Raakshas didn't reply to his questions instead he asked Abdul chacha," Do you remember that day

when I cut my knees while playing with Vedant? You almost cried for me that day."

Abdul chacha became confused hearing the question of Raakshas. He didn't understand why

Raakshas is remembering all these old memories.

" Of course, I remember. Suddenly, why are you saying all this?" Abdul chacha asked confusingly.

Raakshas took a deep breath and again asked," Do you remember that day when I was shot in an

encounter? That day you were behaving like a madman seeing my sufferings."

" I remember everything, Raakshas. Why are you asking all this? What happened? Abdul chacha again

asked and rested his one hand on Raakshas's shoulder.

Raakshas turned his head behind and asked with a blank tone," You considered me as your son. You

raised me as your son. Then, why did you betray me?"

Abdul chacha frowned his brows and asked surprisingly," What are you saying? When did I betray

you?"

Raakshas jerked off Abdul chacha's hand angrily and barked on his face," Do you deny that you aren't

the one who helped Azhar? Do you deny that you told the guards to leave from their duty? Do you deny

that you mixed sleeping pills in the guards coffee?"

This time Abdul chacha became pale and he felt like someone has thrown him into a cold water. His

whole body has turned cold due to nervousness. He gulped down his saliva because of fear.

" What are you talking about? I don't know anything," Andul chacha protested with his shaky voice.

This time Raakshas held Abdul chacha's shoulder and asked him with his painful voice," Why? Why did

you do all this? Why did you betray me?
