Chapter 4- Filthy shadow


    Devika''s p.o.v


    He said with his dangerous voice," How dare you to enter this room. Your filthy shadow is enough to


    taint this pure ce."


    He is choking my neck cutting my oxygen supplies. He lifted me from the ground grabbing my throat. I


    am crawling and thrashing my hands at him to leave me. But his eyes are not showing any mercy or


    softness. I can only see rage in those dark orbs.


    Suddenly, Arnav Agnihotri entered into the room and started shaking that beast''s hand to leave me.


    Arnav said loudly," Bhai, what are you doing?  She will die. Leave her".


    But that beast is not leaving my throat. I am losing my sense. My eyes started shuttering.


    Arnav forcefully freed me from that beast''s clutch. He left me and I am almost going tond on the floor


    when Arnav held me.


    I coughed loudly and sucked oxygen as much as I can. If a few more times he held me than I would


    have fainted.


    That beast asked Arnav angrily, "  what''s this girl doing here? How did she get into this room?


    Arnav said," Bhai, she is Arushi''s friend. Most probably she has lost her way and ended up here. Don''t


    worry. I will take her out right now".

    That beast said nothing but looked at me with too much hate, anger and disgust like I am any kind of


    disease.


    Arnav held my shoulder and took me to the dining space which is not less than from any hall room. I


    was too much shocked and scared that I almost forget that Arnav is holding me.


    He helped me sitting on a chair and gave me a ss of water. I grabbed the ss of water and gulped


    it like I was thirsty for a decade.


    Arnav asked me softly," Are you ok?


    I just nodded my head looking at myp. I am thinking about that beast. Why he behaved like this?


    Does he know me? But I have met him for the first time in my life.


    Arnav asked me cutting my deep thoughts," actually, I am sorry from my brother''s side. He is a very


    angry man and that room is very important for him. He doesn''t let any stranger enter into this room.


    That''s why he behaved like this".


    After listening to his words I am surprised. Arushi has also another brother. She never talked about


    him.


    I asked Arnav," He is your brother?"


    " Yup, he is the eldest brother of us. He is also our guardian " Arnav said.


    I just stared at him for sometimes. I asked him," ok. He is your brother. But isn''t he creepy.? He almost


    killed me".


    Saying that I rubbed my throat. I am sure my throat is now marked by his five fingerprints.


    "I am sorry from his side. Can you forgive him? Arnav asked holding his ear lobe.


    Seeing him a Chuckle left from my mouth because he is looking like a kid.


    Though I said it''s ok. But I didn''t forgive that mental patient. Who behaves like this with their guest!!! I


    should have informed the police but I stopped thinking about Arnav and Arushi.


    After that Arnav and I talked about random things. In a short period of time, we became good friends. I


    also thanked him for saving me from that beast.


    We walked to the garden again. I didn''t say anything to Arushi because I don''t want any kind of


    problem.


    Moreover, it''s myst visit to this house. I don''t want toe to this house in future. First that arrogant


    girl and now this beast. Both brother and sister are mental.


    Abhinav''s p.o.v


    I went to ma''s room and talked with her for sometimes. She never talks back but I always love her


    I was talking with her when someone called me and I went out to attend the call. But when I came back


    I saw a girl in front of ma''s picture. I can see that she is not my family member and I don''t like strangers


    enter into ma''s room.


    I yelled loudly and that girl turned her face. When I saw who she is, my blood gets boiled in anger. It''s


    her. That bitch''s daughter. How dare she step her foot in my mother''s room!


    She tried to say something but I marched towards her and choked her neck. She was struggling to


    breathe and crawling her hand. But I was feeling too much angry that I tried to kill her. Seeing her


    struggling I felt a satisfaction in my heart. If Arnav didn''te timely then I would have already killed


    her.


    Arnav took her out from this room. But I am still feeling to kill her. Suddenly, my n triggered in my


    head. I have arranged special arrangement for her. I am only waiting for the right time.


    I called my P.A and asked him," what''s the progress?


    He replied, " Sir, everything is done. You will get the result next week".


    I don''t smile normally but hearing him a wicked smile form on my lips.


    "Ms Devika Gupta, very soon you are going to see my hell and it''s my promise," I thought evilly.


    Author''s p.o.v


    It''s night time. Devika is preparing her bed to sleep. She has a habit. Before sleeping, she always


    drinks some water. So, she went to the dining space to drink water. She noticed that the light of her


    mother''s room is still on. She went there and saw her mother is still working on herptop.


    Devika went towards her mother and snatched theptop from her hand.


    Before her mother could say something, she said," Ma, how much you will work? It''s already 12:30 and


    you are still working! You are also a human. You need rest".


    Devika''s mother Bhabani smiled. She is very lucky that she got a caring daughter like devika.


    She held Devika''s hand and sat her down in front of her. Then she said," I know dear. But work


    pressure is very high. Moreover, I am losing all of my contracts every day. That''s why I am very busy."


    Devika understood that theirpany''s condition is not that good. Theirpany is not that big but


    still, it''s ok for them to lead a peaceful life. She knew that her mother works very hard for their


    She said," Don''t worry ma. Everything will be ok".


    Saying that Devikaid down her mother on the bed and started stroking her hair. After sometime


    Bhabani is asleep.


    Devika left her room and returned to her room. She turned off the light andid down on her bed but


    she can''t sleep properly.


    She is only thinking about that beast. That beast''s eyes areing in front of her again and again. She


    is thinking only one thing why he reacts like this!! Have I met him before?

    Abhinav is ying a piano inside a room. The room is empty and dark. There are only a piano and a


    chair. He is sitting on that chair and ying only one music.


    The music is full of pain and agony. If anyone hears it then they will surely cry. Abhinav is ying the


    tune again and again. He is thinking about some memory.


    "Please, don''t do this to us. We are your family. Where will we go? Abhinav''s mother is saying to a man


    holding his hand.


    The man jerked off his mother''s hand and saying nothing left the ce.


    This time Abhinav''s tune turned into more emotional. He is ying like there is no tomorrow. He is


    closing his eyes and his fingers are trailing on the piano.


    Suddenly he stopped and screamed," Ma".......
