"He won't do anything to you if you make your brother believe that this marriage is happening according to your wish...", Kailash said and she nodded, and a sob escaped her throat...
Kailash knew that his son won't agree to get his sister married to Abhyansh, after all, he knew how cruel the Royal BEAST is, and he would never allow his sister to marry him, that's why he made sure that these things don't reach him, but some people who are still loyal to his brother might have intimated Ranveer, he guessed. To handle his son, Kailash decided to make Isha tell that herself. He will believe it only if he hears it from his sister's mouth...
Kailash took his son's call when it rang for the 5th time...
"What the hell papa, why are you not taking my call, and what am I hearing, how dare you think of getting Isha married to That Ranawat, you know how cruel he is, I won't let this happen", Ranveer shouted getting hell worried for his sister...
Isha cupped her mouth and sobbed, hearing her brother's caring voice... She does talk to him but she is monitored by her uncle so she can't tell him anything about their torture, she doesn't even want to tell him about the torture her aunt and uncle put her through as she didn't want her brother to hate his parents, but now she wanted to tell him about this marriage and beg him to save her, but she is blackmailed not to... Can her fate get better ever??
"Isha wants to get married to him, I didn't force her son", Kailash said with his fake sweet tone...
"Like the hell, I would believe your words... Stop the wedding, I am coming there immediately", Ranveer said
"Okay come, if you don't believe me, then ask Isha", he said handing over the phone to Isha... " Lo beta, baat krlo apne bhai se (take it beta, talk to your brother)", Kailash said and Isha took the phone with shivering hands...
"Ishu... I know you don't want to get married, don't worry, I am coming there, I won't let you marry that BEAST", Ranveer said lovingly...
"Bhai... I... ", Isha wanted to say something when two dirty hands started wandering on her shoulder... Her eyes widened and dread filled her...
"Yes bacha, tell me...", he said lovingly, Kailash gave her a look that says 'convince Ranveer, and only then the hands will stop', Isha pleaded folding her hands, but Madan didn't stop wandering his hands on her shoulder, she kept jerking them but Kailash held her hands tightly...
Madan's hands dangerously moved downwards, and Isha's eyes widened in disgust before they move to her breasts, she started speaking...
"Bhai, I am okay with this marriage... I... I like him", Isha spoke... And the hands moved up to her shoulders and she sighed in relief, she pleaded with her uncle to make Madan stop the torture but in return, he signed towards the phone indicating to make Ranveer believe...
All this while, her aunt is having food very peacefully as if her husband is not torturing a poor soul... She hates Isha to the core as she feels she got something that rightfully belonged to her son...
"What?? Ishu, I know you are lying... ", he started but she interrupted him before Madan starts wandering his dirty hands on her...
"Bhai... No... What's there to not like about him, he is a man, a rich man who can give me everything, I am tired of living this life like a caged princess, I want my freedom, and he is ready to give me that... I need nothing else", she said
"Are you my Ishu?? What are you even saying?? I agree you are desperate for freedom but that doesn't mean you marry any man, that too Abhyansh Singh Ranawat?? That man is bad news Ishu, you won't be happy with him, please don't do this bacha...Listen to me, I will come there tomorrow, we can talk about everything", Ranveer said
Kailash threw a challenging look at her and mouthed her to stop him from coming to India...
"No bhai... You don't have to come here, I know what I am doing, I am old enough to take my own decisions, I am not backing off from this marriage", she said rudely shocking Ranveer...
Hearing his sister talking like that shocked him to the core, it angered him like hell, and he did the most unexpected thing snatching all the hope his sister has...
"Fine, do whatever you want, I am not coming there, I don't even want to attend the wedding when that man tortures you daily, then don't come to me", saying this he hung up, Madan's hands left her body, and she collapsed on the ground... All her hopes are crashed now... Now no one could save her from this...
She secretly hoped that her brother understands her helplessness, but she knew she is hoping against hope...
How can her brother trust her words?? Didn't he know her??
Days passed and her brother called her two more times, but she couldn't say anything as per her uncle's instructions... And he gave up...
He didn't understand why his sister is behaving like that, at first he thought she is under some pressure, so he made sure to communicate with her when she is alone, he called her mobile that too at midnight when he is sure his parents are asleep but even then his sister said only one thing, that she is happywith this marriage, and he thought his sister made up her mind regarding this, it got easy for him to believe her lies as he knew how desperately she wanted freedom from that place... But what he doesn't know is Isha's every call is being monitored and listened to by her uncle...
She cried and cried the day her brother, the only person she thought loved her gave up on her...
She didn't sleep the whole night and when she saw sunrise the next morning, she didn't see the shining sun, instead, she saw herself getting burnt in that fire...
