Am sorry for ruining your life, Sitamma
Author's POV
Abhi woke up early in the morning but didn't get off the bed. He looked at Sitaara's pic on the nightstand, a tear rolled down his cheek. He took it in his hands and hugged it to his chest crying.
"Am sorry....am sorry. I love you, Taara. I love you so much" he sobbed caressing her photo over the frame.
He got off the bed wiping his tears. Walking into the bathroom, he did his morning business. With the towel wrapped around his waist loosely, he looked at Sitaara's stick notes which has his outfits as per day. According to it, he selected one of his maroon suits and dressed into it. Standing in front of the mirror, he was trying to won't the tie but his mind was lingering around Sitaara. Her, tying the tie while he teasing her stealing quick pecks in between and she whining about it.
"Fuck" he hissed when he isn't able to even concentrate on knotting the tie.
"Sitaara...Sitaara..Taara...Taara" he chanted with closed eyes trying to calm himself. Once he felt better, he fixed his hair. Moving out of the room, he walked to the kitchen and prepared coffee for himself. Looking into company emails, he sipped his coffee. As he was scrolling down, he saw many reminders pinging in his phone, from Sitaara she set for him months ago. He switched off his phone blinking his tears.

"Wrong move, Love," said Abhi hovering over her. She blinked her eyes innocently with a shy smile.
"Tell me why did you do that?" Asked Abhi huskily.
"Do what, Mani?" She whispered tilting her face unable to handle his strong gaze.
"Acting innocent, are we?" He asked nuzzling his nose in her neck. She pressed her lips together to suppress the moan when he bit her neck and soothed peppering soft kisses.
"Mani...move athamma(mil) is waiting for me. I need to go" she whispered closing her eyes.
"Tell me why did you do that, I will leave you," he said crushing her body with his, teasing her with his hands sensually making both of them turn on.
"I wanted to tease you. That's why" she whispered which came out huskily. He looked at her smiling.
"You have turned bold! Dad and uncle almost doubted us due to continuous disturbance under the dining table. My cousins understood your bold acts completely" Abhi said. She giggled and looked into his eyes as he was staring at her without a blink.
"What?" She asked furrowing her eyebrows.
"You know how beautiful you are? Big doe eyes, long eyelashes, thick perfect shaped eyebrows, cute button nose, rosy cheeks, pink plump lips" he said looking into her eyes and kissing on the mole on her chin. She blushed as he trailed kisses down her throat and to cleavage.
"But you are not so handsome, Mr Abhimanyu Chowdary. Actually, you are not handsome at all" she said hooking her arms around his neck pulling him to her.
"You sure, Mrs Abhimanyu?" He asked unbuttoning his shirt.
"Hey! Not now. I need to go to the baby shower ceremony along with your mom and aunt" she said immediately holding his hand in the middle. He groaned and moved back kissing her forehead.
"You are such an oldie. Attending every ceremony with mom and aunt. I never visited these many functions in my whole life which you attended in 3 and half months of our marriage life" said Abhi. She giggled kissing his cheek
"Bye, change your suit according to your preferences and today's day I stuck on the wall. Your current shirt is crumbled" she said pecking his lips and before she pull away he deepened the peck with his kiss.
"You ruined my lipstick again. It's 4th time since morning" she whined making him laugh hard.

"Abhi" called Rishi and Anish, coming inside his flat. Placing the cup in the sink and washing it, he turned to them.
"What is this, Abhi? Why are you punishing both yourself and Sitaara? Why are you pushing away everyone? You know her past, then why this? Unlike you, she didn't sleep with her ex, then why are you pushing her away?" Screamed Anish.
"Stop talking about her with other men though it was her ex and even if she still loves him," he said wearing his coat.
"Then, what's this? Why are you keeping her away as if she cheated on you? She is pure as a goddess, Abhi. We understood that! Being her husband, you are doubting her" shouted Rishi holding his collar.
"Am not doubting her, Rishi. I can never doubt her purity. I love her. Deeply. Madly. Intensely. She is my life, Rishi" whispered Abhi as tears rolled down his cheeks.
"Then, why did you kick her out of your mansion and you too came out? Why did you leave everyone?" Asked Rishi, stepping back.
"Blackmailer," said Abhi.
"Means?" They both asked giving a perplexed look.
"When I was in my office after I and Sitaara came back from the Maldives, Vinay brought in an envelope saying some anonymous man sent it with no name or any details. I took it and opened it, Rishi. Then, I saw some pictures of my wife with many men in compromising positions. I know those are morphed ones. Under it, 'Leave your wife or these pics will be posted in social media was written" said Abhi and palmed his face crying.
"I ignored it and burnt those pictures. The next day, Sitaara's picture with her ex-boyfriend was placed in my car in an envelope. I was hesitant to ask her and was feeling very heartbreaking seeing her with her boyfriend. Understanding my hidden pain, she consoled me saying she need time to reveal her past so that she don't hurt me. After that, I didn't ask Sitaara about it as I don't want her to feel am not trusting her. Then her nudes were sent to my phone" he said and a sob escaped from his mouth. Rishi and Anish gasped with tears.
"That blackmailer blackmailed me to leave Sitaara if not he will post her nudes. I didn't give a fuck to it although it was a matter of my wife's dignity because I can't live without her. Then Sitaara's and Disha's photos of their current activities photos were sent. He told that he would even post Disha's nudes in media" cried Abhi.
"The blackmailer never talked with me on the phone as I placed a tracker to know who it is. I sent that envelope to the lab to find any fingerprints but couldn't trace it as that man made sure he didn't leave any hints behind.
Having no other choice to save my wife's dignity I blamed her that she is cheating on me so that she will be hating me. She always prioritises her self-respect over anything, Anish. So, I thought she would leave me at least for her self-respect but....but she...lo.ve me so mu.c.h that she prioritised her life with me over her self-respect" cried Abhi hysterically.
"After I made Sitaara get out of the mansion I tried to clear all these things and bring her back. After that, there is no message from the blackmailer again, so I went to bring her back but Sid and Ved made sure I won't reach Sitaara" said Abhi and sobbed loudly.
"I sent her away from me to save her dignity. For 1 month, I don't know whom to tell. I tried my level best in finding that woman" said Abhi.
"Woman?" Asked Anish and Rishi. Abhi nodded.
"It had women's fragrance on the envelope," said Abhi.
"There can be a possibility of man diverting the evidence with that fragrance too" added Abhi.
"Why didn't you tell us, Abhi? You did the same mistake as Samhith. Like him, you too hid about everything" said Rishi.
"What shall I say, Rishi? Being an influential man in our country, I couldn't do anything. Being a man who can anticipate the next move of the person who is in front of me, I couldn't do anything. Being a husband I failed to protect my wife's dignity. I just failed in everything and how can I say that to you" cried Abhi.
"I want to see her once. Just once, Rishi but Sid and Ved aren't allowing me to even reach her. Sitaara doesn't know that am going there. It's been 1 and half months since I saw her" cried Abhi hugging Anish and Rishi.
"That blackmailer even stole my company deal files which I placed in my cabin and sold them to Arjun's company. And Arjun's company got the deal which my company has to get. Not to disturb me Naman and dad handled the issue hiding it as I was in the Maldives. While we were coming back from our honeymoon, goons attacked me. They literally drove a lorry over my car. If Sitaara didn't save me, I would be dead by now. Am not able to understand anything. That man didn't demand even a single rupee. Except leaving Sitaara he didn't ask me anything. After I left Sitaara, there is no message, call or any letter from that man or woman" said Abhi.
Rishi was about to speak something, his phone rang. Excusing himself he went outside. He spoke to Adhira who called him. After ending the call, he came inside the flat running.
"Sitaara is admitted in hospital," said Rishi making Abhi's breath hitch and tears make their way.
1 month ago,
Sitaara was talking to Naman and Dhruv in Naman's room. Aarya and Disha were also with them.
Abhi came home and went to Naman's room ignoring her mother and Aunt who greeted him cheerfully. Seeing him like a mad bull, Sakshi, Anjali, Aman and Suman followed him.
"Sitaara" shouted Abhi making her jump at her spot in fear. She looked at him in fear and then smiled.
"You came? Shall we go to the movie today? Naman's best friend is the hero in the movie. I met that guy and, Mani, he is passionate and dedicated to the acting profession. We should encourage such talent, Mani. Let's go" said Sitaara smiling and walking to him and was about you touch him, he pushed her away making her fall down
"Stay away, you cheat. Just stay away" he screamed at her who was on the floor.
"Anna" Screamed Aarya angrily.
"Shut up, just shut the fuck up" he yelled at Aarya. Naman and Dhruv helped Sitaara to stand.
"Abhi what's that? What the hell are you doing?" Shouted Aman.
"Ask your daughter in law, daddy. She was cheating behind my back" shouted Abhi.
"Mani" whispered Sitaara enough audible for them to hear. He turned to her hiding his pain. She went to him and was about to cup his cheeks, he stepped back.
"After I confessed my feelings to you, I didn't cheat on you. Am doing neither nor will do ever" she said calmly.
"Then what's this? Who the fuck is this man?" He shouted throwing a few pics on her face. They hit on her face and fell on her feet. She gasped when photos revealed her with Viraj. She was in his arms laughing, he was feeding her making her sit on his lap, they both were cuddling under a blanket and many more.
"I can explain, Mani-"
"That means you are cheating on me. Isn't it, Taara? I loved you with my everything and you do this behind my back" he screamed at her cutting off her.
"Anna don't slip your tongue with allegations. You will surely regret it. Let her explain" shouted Aarya.
"If she wants to explain that means there is something between her and that bast-"
"Mind your language, Abhimanyu. I won't tolerate even a single bad word on him" shouted Sitaara.
"Yeah! After all, you used me like your fucking toy, my money, my luxuries, my fame which that middle-class rascal couldn't give and you love him so much that you can't tolerate bad things about him" Abhi taunted. Sitaara's lips trembled to even talk as her eyes pooled with the accusations. She tried to talk strong but her words came in a whisper, painfully.
"I never used you. I love you with my everything and yes, I love him too but-"
*Slap* Sakshi slapped her making everyone gasp except Sitaara as was still in a daze with her husband's accusations of using him.
Sitaara didn't even glance at Sakshi as her eyes were on Abhi who stood there rooted looking at her as she cupped her cheek with tears. His heart pained seeing blood at the corner of her lips.
"You can't raise your hand on my best friend mummy" shouted Aarya.
"You shut your mouth. This woman was cheating on my son and you being his sister, you still support her? Seriously Aarya?" Shouted Sakshi.
"You know what, you guys don't need an explanation. She doesn't need to prove her purity" shouted Aarya.
Just then Shetty's men came and witnessed Sakshi slapping Sitaara. Dev's heart felt like it ripped out of his body when he saw his daughter looking at her husband with the pain while he stood there without any emotion.
"Sitamma" whispered Dev with tears making everyone look at him.
"Let's go to our home, come," said Dev. She walked to Abhi and held his hand tightly looking down. Abhi's heart clenched in pain seeing Sitaara.
"Sitamma, your husband asked us to come here and take you away. He said he don't want you. Let's go to our home" said Dev calmly. She shook her head in no and held Abhi's palm tightly standing behind him.
Sid and Ved sighed. They both walked to her.
"Let's go, Situ. I know, our family is kind of orthodox and ladies in our family always say that a woman should devote herself to her husband and her inlaws family, that's because we never disrespected the women in our family and won't let our daughters get disrespected too. Situ, we even won't feel shame to keep our married daughter at home. Fuck this society, Sitaara. We can't keep our sister at a place where she is insulted and was slapped by her mil, accused infidelity by her husband" said Ved calmly yet dangerously.
"I won't come leaving Mani. There must be a misunderstanding-"
"There is no misunderstanding, Sitaara. Go to your parents home. I don't want you in my life" said Abhi cutting off her.
"Am gonna stay here, Anna. You people go back. Am not proving my innocence by staying back anna. Am staying here because this is my home. I don't need to prove my innocence because I never committed anything wrong to fight for myself. Believing it or not is up to them and I don't care what they take me as. I love my husband and I will stay with him. Moreover, he needs to know my past. It's his right and it also can clear this misunderstanding that's it" said Sitaara ignoring Abhi's statement.
"Sitaara, let's go home. Your father and uncles are still alive and they won't let you get humiliated. Your inlaws or husband has no right to even raise their hand at you let alone slap you but your mil did. As Ved said, women from our house stand by their inlaws but not keeping their reputation and self-respect at stake. How much we respect our traditions, we respect our dignity too. Let's go, beta" said Ananth.
"I won't leave Mani. I won't. At any cost" said Sitaara stubbornly. A tear escaped from Abhi's eyes.
"Go with your father and brothers to your home, Sitaara. I regret supporting the decision of getting you married to my brother. He doesn't deserve you as his wife nor my mother as her dil who used to praise you all the time don't deserve you. She only needs a person to show off and she found you. You don't need to stay here. Today she slapped you once without giving you a chance to explain and there is no guarantee that it won't happen tomorrow. She can't slap you. Even for once. Yet she did. Not only you but any woman also shouldn't be slapped by her inlaws, husband or even her brothers and father. Now, go back to your parents home if you want to be respected" said Aarya wiping her tears.
"I won't leave Mani. I won't leave him even if he slaps me or do anything to me. I won't leave him that's it" shouted Sitaara.
"Sitaara let's go. Stop being a stubborn woman again. At least once in your life listen to us. He, himself called us and asked us to take you away. He told that he doesn't want a woman who cheats on him" yelled Sid.
"That means I cheated on him? Did I, Anna? Is that why you guys agreed to him and want to take me away? I never cheated on him okay? Anna, Mani might not be stable. He can't think properly when his disorder triggers and he behave impulsively. Please, don't separate us because of that. After many painful incidents and losing many people who are important to us, we found each other. He loves me-"
"I used to love you, Sitaara Dev Shetty. Now, get out of my house" shouted Abhi cutting off her.
"He loves me and I love him, Anna. I can't leave him in this condition. He needs me" said Sitaara ignoring Abhi, holding his shirt from behind tightly as a sacred kid holds his/her father's.
Abhi turned to her and held Sitaara by arms tightly and pulled her to him leaving no space between them. Sid and Ved clenched their jaw seeing Abhi's death grip around Sitaara's arm. She looked at him, into his eyes which held so much pain and love for her.
"I don't love you, you get that? I don't love a woman who cheats on me and I'm in a sane mind. I don't need you. I hate you. Now, get out of my house, Sitaara Dev Shetty" he said looking into her eyes.
"Am Sitaara Abhimanyu Chowdary not Sitaara Dev Shetty and I won't go. This house is mine too. Do whatever you want, I don't care. If you don't love me, so what? I love you and want to live with you" she said looking into his eyes.
"And... your eyes speak contradictory to your words, Mani. They are still looking at me like they look at me every time with so much love. I love you, baby. With my everything. I never cheated on you. I love you a lot" she said cupping his cheeks.
At that moment he just want to hug her and never let her go away from his arms. He wants to say his love to her too but for him, her dignity is more important now.
"I neither love you nor need you, woman! Go away. From me and my family", he screamed at her.
"I won't," she said hugging him tightly.
'Go Sitaara. Please. Just for a few days. I will get you back Sweetheart. But now please go away' thought Abhi.
"Okay!! Sitaara you are not coming even though he is kicking you out with his feet right! Then let me hold his feet though you are not at fault. Maybe he will accept you then and you will also be happy with him" said Dev so that she agrees to him and come back.
"What? No! You won't do that, daddy. Not at all" said Sitaara.
"I can do anything for you, Sitamma," said Dev moving towards Abhi.
"No! Don't do that. Though you can touch your son in law's feet, not like this. Not in this matter. If you touch his feet to accept me that means you are agreeing that I cheated on Mani and you accepting that I failed yours and mom's upbringing" said Sitaara.
"You don't want to come and he doesn't want you to stay. What shall I do then? I can't see my daughter like this" blackmailed Dev intentionally knowing she would do anything to save her father's
