chapter 17

What nonsense are they spouting here? "Look guys this is....." I was going to say them that what they are saying and doing is not good. Lying like this is not good and we can get in to trouble for this in future. But before I could say anything, Mrs Sharma that boy's mother came and started to make a fuss. "what are you doing to my son! I was not here so are you together bullying my son" she said. This woman thinks everyone is like her or lower than her! She and her son are the big bullies, who never leaves people alone and look now she is blaming us without even asking anything. Her son was also nothing less than her, as soon as He saw his mother he ran to her, while hugging her legs he said "mom, they bullied me... I said my mom is here for a child and my mom will bring a child for me to play very soon, they said they are here to get a father. When I said it's not possible, they lied saying that man is their father". So, they are here because Mrs Sharma is pregnant! They are planning for their second kid this late! She is above forty and I heard she had this son with very difficulty. She doesn't look like a pregnant person. But what it has to do with me!"Mrs Sharma are you pregnant! Congratulations" I said and truly congratulated her but an egoistic woman like her couldn't accept someone's heart felt gratitude . Instead of saying thanks she started to mock me."Well, you seems younger than me but you don't have a husband and who knows what you did to get this two at your young age! You must have feeling jealous of me that is why you are here with a fake husband" she said.Actually I'm speechless after hearing her words. Jealous of her! Why would I! For having a husband! A husband who treats her wife as doormat! I have actually seen many types of husband in my life.Some husbands who thinks their wives are only fit for house works, some husbands who uses their wives as a decoration to show how beautiful their wives are, some husbands wants their wife to work both inside and outside, they can earn money by working but they can't skip housework. Some low grade husbands who didn't work only drinks and beat their wives, then comes Mrs Sharma's husband who like to keep one wife and one mistress.There are rarely some couple who are actually supporting eachother and respecting eachother.I want to reply Mrs Sharma with her own language then I saw their maid walking behind Mrs Sharma. So, this is the matter! I laughed and said "you are insecure that someone may find your secret. Is that why you are belittling people, so they can't talk back!" "What are you saying?" She said with a nervous tone."He didn't even left your maid!" I said.She was surprised and couldn't talk back. I thought talking to her will be a waste of energy, so without any other word we left from there.Before even having a husband I saw how provisional my would be husband's trust was and later I realised, he just wanted me as a beautiful doll who could enhance his beauty by his side. He stopped me from working. I didn't join any job even after having high qualifications, because he said I didn't need to bother for those silly things. I trusted him blindly and followed his every word but in the end what happened to me! So things like husband I don't need that...On the way all remained silent like if they would even speak a word then I will tear them apart in that car.When we reached home I left that man in my room to rest and went to kids room. Kids seem afraid of me because I was very angry at that moment. They understood what they did for last two days will be questioned now. "What do you think you are doing? Do you even respect your mother or not!" I asked in anger."Mom, we are sorry" Ayush said."What are you sorry for?" I asked."We wouldn't have lied that this uncle is our father" Ayush said."You get it very well, then why did you do that! I already told you, if anyone will ask about your father just tell him he is dead then why did you do all this?" I said in rage.Both of them started to cry, when I saw them crying I couldn't control myself and forgot the reason I was angry about. "Mo..m... I... Everywhere we go ... The kids are making fun of us... And they are saying I have a bad mother. I don't like it...." Ayush said while crying.I hugged them and said "I understand that but these things are temporary, they are saying all these because they wanted to pull us back. Having a father is also not that good" I said and remembered about their biological father, who was a crook. If he was alive then they would have never want to hear the word father. It's good that they were small and didn't remember anything.After they calmed down I said"I have no one except you two, this is also same for you two. We don't need anyone in our life, if we act like this then that uncle will feel uncomfortable when he will get back his memory".I understand kids are doing this for me and they are also getting hurt when other people belittle me while throwing mud at me. I don't understand why they won't accept someone the way they are why they always want to find something to criticize! I'm fed up with this, so I won't live anyone who dares to take me light.After that day kids stopped talking about the word father, but they never changed their loving attitude towards that me. I also want to know how that man bewitched my kids!Is he a warlock!
