His Doll

Chapter 60- Fire

Abhinav's p.o.v

I am still hugging my kids when Devika entered the garden with full rage.

She snatched the toys from my kids hand and said angrily," How dare you touch my children with your

filthy hands?"

My children become startled hearing her. They all ran towards their mother and hugged her waist

tightly.

They said with their baby voice," Mamma, Papa gave us so many chocolates and toys. He is not bad."

Hearing my kids I am really happy that my kids are not thinking of me as a bad person.

" Didn't I tell you that if you see this man again then don't talk with him and don't take anything from

him?" Devika scolded them and they started crying.

I touched my small kids head when she again snatched them from me.

I said to her softly," Devika, don't scold them. They are just 2-year-old kids. I am the one who gave

them all this. They are innocent."

" Just shut up, you psycho," she snapped at me and I sighed. I never thought that once the soft-spoken

Devika will talk like that. She is always talking with me rudely.

Devika called Ruhi and ordered her to take the kids inside the house and Ruhi obliged her silently

giving me a boring look.

No sooner had Ruhi taken the kids, a hard slap landed on my cheek. I just touched the area where

Devika slapped me. After coming out from jail I have earned uncountable slaps from her. I deserve her

slap because I used to slap her mercilessly for any kind of small mistake of her.

" How can someone be so shameless! Don't you have any self-respect? Even after so much insult, how

can you come to my house again and again!" She said giving a disgusted look at me.

I don't care about her insults. I deserve all this. I have also insulted her many times. It's karma that I am

facing now.

I said looking at my feet," I wanted to meet my kids and give them some gifts. It's the first time they

have called me papa and hugged me."

Remembering my kids faces my heart is feeling too much joy. I am feeling like to again hug them.

I kneeled in front of her and said with too much regret," Devika, try to understand. I am sorry for my

wrongdoing towards you. Please, forgive me. You have already punished me. I have spent my two

years in jail without my kids and you. Please, give me a last chance."

Seeing me she didn't answer. She walked back to her house and came back with the chocolates, toys

and gifts which I gave to my kids.

Some toys were on the ground and some were in her hands. She threw the toys on the ground and

then said angrily," If you ever give anything to my children with your filthy hands then I will not spare

you."

I tried to say something when she lit a match stick and burned the gifts which I brought for my children.

" How can you be so cruel! I have bought these gifts with too much affection and love!" I yelled loudly

and I felt wetness on my cheeks.

She said with too much hate," My children don't need your filthy gifts. I am giving them everything.

Now, get lost from here before I lose my sanity."

This time I couldn't control my anger anymore. I said to her with a hurtful yet angry voice," just stop

calling them only your children. They are my children also. I am their father. My blood is flowing

through their veins."

" You may have fathered them but I have held them in my womb. They are mine only. They don't need

an insane psycho father like you," She snapped at me.

This time I couldn't hold back my emotions anymore. I held her shoulder tightly and said shaking her,"

How can you be so cruel, Devika? My whole life I have suffered. I have seen the worst side of this

world. How more I have to suffer!! I have suffered without any reason. Just give me a chance to love

you. I love you Devika."

" And I have seen the worst side of you. I always wanted love from you and happy married life. But, you

didn't give me that. I have also suffered just because of you. You have hurt me without any reason. You

are a monster," She said crying.

I tried to wipe her tears when she flinched backwards. She wiped her tears and looked at me with

anger filled red eyes.

Next moment she grabbed my collar and dragged me towards the main gate. Then, she again threw

me out of her house and I landed on the ground.

She said with too much hate," Never step in my house again otherwise I don't know what will I do to

you."

Saying that she left me and entered her house. My bodyguards came running and asked with their

concerned voice," Are you ok, sir?"

I just nodded my head in positive and said," I am fine."

Saying that I got into my car and left Devika's house.

I came back to my house and returned to my room. My room is empty without Devika. I am missing her.

I opened our closet and there are still some of her saree and dress. Every night I sleep hugging her

clothes.

I am now standing in front of the mirror and some of her bangles, earrings, necklaces are still here. She

hates me so much that she has left her mangal sutra ( nuptial chain ) also.

The small casket of Vermillion is still here. She used to apply vermillion from this small casket. Her

many things are still here which reminds me of her every day. I can still feel her existence in this room.

Her hate for me is totally fine because I deserve all of her hate. How much wrong I was from the very

first! What if I never hurt her then she might have loved me!

She can hate me as much as she wants but she can never make me stay away from my kids.

I will never leave my kids. They are the reason for my existence. I will go any length to be with my kids

and Devika.

Next-Day morning

Devika's p.o.v

"Mamma, I don't want to eat more," Devansh said playing with his toy car.

I said wiping his mouth," It's the last bite. After that mamma will not feed you more".

He nodded his head and I continued feeding him.

It's early in the morning and I am feeding my kids. After feeding them, I have to go to work also.

I am feeding them and Abhinav's words are ringing inside my head. Yesterday, he was looking very

upset and broken. Should I give him a chance? Will he be able to prove himself! Is he changed for

sure!

" How can you think of giving a chance to a monster like him? Did you just forget how he tortured you!

He doesn't deserve any chance. He doesn't deserve you, "My subconscious reminded me.

Yeah, he doesn't deserve any chance. He is a monster. Because of him, I have suffered too much.

I am now done feeding my kids when Ruhi entered the house after her morning walk. Neel is still

sleeping like a horse.

Ruhi said drinking a glass of water," Di, do you know who is our new neighbour?"

I am wiping my children's mouth and asked," Who?"

The house was empty for almost one year. The house's condition is not that good. It needs to be

repaired. I wonder who has taken this house."

" It's none other than Abhinav Agnihotri. Your kids' father. He is our new neighbour," Ruhi said and I

looked at her with disbelief.

" What? Are you joking? I asked her raising my brows.

She said pulling Daksh into her lap," I am not joking, Di. I saw him setting furniture in the house. I

asked him why he is going to live in a small house leaving behind his palace type house. He said that

he wants to be with his kids and his devika."

This man never leaves any chance to irritate me.

" Why this man can not leave me and my children alone? I think I need to teach him a good lesson," I

said and stood up from my sit angrily.

" Mamma, es oul papa's neme Abinab Agnihitri? ( Mamma, is our Papa's name Abhinav Agnihotri?),"

Daksh asked me pulling my saree.

I said patting his head," He is not....."

" Di, they deserve their father's love. Don't make them stay away from their father. I know whatever he

has done is totally wrong but it's his right to be with his children," Ruhi said interrupting me.

I looked at her with full rage and said," Don't tell me what I should do or not. His shadow is enough to

make my children monster like him. I think I have to teach this despicable and shameless man a good

lesson."

I stormed out of my house and entered his house angrily. My children also followed me.

Entering the house, I found him unwrapping some expensive toys. I am sure he is going to lure my

children with those expensive toys of him.

He noticed me and gave me a genuine smile. I just rolled my eyes.

Before I could yell at him my kids jumped on him and said in unison," Papa, are you going to live here?

We will come to your house every day to meet you. Won't you give us chocolates and candies?"

Hearing my kids, he bent down to their level and hugged them tightly.

He said looking at me," You all can come anytime to papa's house. Even you can stay here with papa if

your mamma let you live with me. I will give you many kinds of chocolates and candies."

I pulled every kid towards me and said angrily," Can't you just leave me and my children alone? Just

get lost from this locality. Stay away from my kids."

He chuckled and said pulling my cheeks," My dear wife, how can I live my soul alone! You and my kids

are my soul. I can not stay away from you."

" You know what, this type of flattering words doesn't suit in your mouth. You may have shifted here but

I am telling you that I will not let my children meet you," I said gritting my teeth.

And the next moment, I felt a kiss on my cheek and become dumbfounded. He has just kissed me on

my cheek.

I looked at him with full rage and he held his ears playfully.

He said with a naughty smile," Seeing your angry red face, I couldn't control my urge to kiss you, baby

doll."

Seeing his lovey-dovey type behaviour I am feeling like he has gone again mad. I am insulting him

every day but still, he is sticking with me like super glue.

" Papa, why mamma is so angry with you?" Dipti asked him holding his one big hand.

He picked her up in his arms and said pulling her cheeks," Because your papa mistakenly hurt your

mamma. That's why your mamma is angry. Tell your mamma to forgive your papa. Your papa is very

guilty now."

Saying all these he gave Dipti a sad look.

Dipti is an innocent child and didn't understand any of his words. She is now roaming her baby fingers

on his thick beards and his moustache.

He asked her patting her small head," Are you liking papa's beard, my princess?"

Dipti nodded her head in positive and my other kid are now also talking with him.

I took a deep breath. I know that this man will not leave me alone. I think I can ask him nicely to leave

me.

I said trying very hard to make him understand," Listen, Mr Abhinav Agnihotri, you have spoiled my life

enough. I am begging you just leave me and my kids alone. Let me live my life peacefully."

He chuckled and said showing his all teeth," I will not leave you and my kids alone until I die. You are

mine from the very first and you will remain mine always."

I closed my eyes to suppress my anger after hearing him. I said angrily," I am not an object whom you

can claim as yours"

" Who said you are an object! You are my queen. Queen of Abhinav Agnihotri's heart," He said having

a serious look on his face.

I sarcastically replied," What do you think of yourself? Huh!! You will tell me all these shitty lines and I

will melt. Remember that I will never forgive you."

" You don't know the determination of Abhinav Agnihotri. No power in this world can make me stay

away from you and my children. I will ask for your forgiveness until you forgive me," He said seriously

and I groaned in total frustration.

I snatched Dipti from his hold and ordered my other kids to follow me to my house. I turned my back to

leave his house when he said chuckling," Babies, tell your mamma to forgive your papa and you all can

come anytime to meet papa. Your papa always misses you. Anger doesn't suit you baby doll. Try to

smile a little. When you smile, you look too much cute baby doll......"

I know that he is telling me all this. First, he used to call me doll and now babydoll. I am feeling that he

is born insane!

After three months

Author's p.o.v

It's been three months since Abhinav is living in Devika's locality as her neighbour. Their house is very

close to each other. So close that Abhinav can talk with the kids through the windows.

Abhinav doesn't go to work and his mansion anymore. He is handling his office works through video

calls and his trusted man Omkara is taking care of his business. His siblings always come to meet him

and try to make him understand that Devika will never forgive him but he doesn't take any of their

words seriously.

Abhinav is determined to earn forgiveness from devika. Every day he is going to her house with

flowers, gifts and many more things for Devika and his children. And as usual, Devika is insulting him

every day.

But, the children are not afraid of him anymore. They understood that Abhinav is their father and he

loves them so much. They wanted to be with their father but their mother doesn't let them meet their

father. They are too innocent. They don't understand why their father and mother quarrel so much.

Devika has removed all the way to meet her children with Abhinav. Whenever she goes to work, she

locked the children inside her house so that they can't meet their father. She also sealed the window

which her children used to talk with Abhinav. She is thinking that if her children meet Abhinav and stay

with him then they can adapt his bad qualities.

Right now, the children are alone in the house. Devika has gone to her work. Her siblings are in school.

Since the children stay alone in the house she makes sure that they don't harm themselves. She

always hides all type of things which can harm her children.

The kids are seeing Tom & Jerry in the T.v. They are giggling and jumping on the couch seeing the

funny acts of Tom & Jerry. They are enjoying themselves.

Suddenly, Drishti said to Devansh," Bhai, I am feeling hungry."

" Mamma is not at home. I don't know where is the food," Devansh replied with his baby voice.

Though all the kids are the same age, among them Devansh is more mature than his age and always

holds a dominating aura. His other siblings consider him as their elder brother.

Drishti said," The food is in the freezer. I saw mamma was keeping food there."

Without thinking further both brother and sister walked towards the kitchen and took out food from the

freezer. But, the food is too cold.

Devansh said touching the food," It's too cold. It needs to be heated up."

He noticed the micro oven and remembered how his mamma always keep the food inside and the food

gets warm. He understood that it's the machine to warm the food.

He opened the micro oven and kept the food inside it. He is just a two-year-old boy. He doesn't know

which button should be pressed. So, he just pressed the buttons randomly.

Both brother and sister returned to the TV room and started seeing the cartoon. The volume of the Tv

is quite loud now. After some time Drishti and Devansh have almost forgotten that the micro oven is still

on.

After some time the kids realized that something is burning. They all looked at the kitchen and found

fire!!!

The food in the micro oven was burnt and the oven blasted creating fire. The electronic wires come into

the contact of fire and fire is now spreading rapidly. Just in a blink of an eye, the whole house has

started burning.

Seeing the fire the kids got terrified and started crying.

They all are crying and saying," Mamma.....papa.......save us.....there is Fire....."

They all ran towards the main door and started banging it to open. As devika has locked them inside Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

they are not able to come out of the house.

They are crying and crying. The fire is spreading in the whole house rapidly and the temperature is

growing. The smoke is making the kids' conditions more miserable. They are coughing and screaming

to save them.

They all are hugging each other and calling their mamma and papa. They couldn't tolerate the smoke

anymore and collapsed on the floor.
