Redeeming Love by Shikha Mishra (books for men to read .txt) 📗

“Try it." I try to open the door but it's lock. And in annoyance I turn and start hitting him. But stop the next second when I hear a painful shout from him. Realising I must have hit him on his hand I stop.

“I am sorry. I am sorry." I mumble as I see white band-aid turning red. Instantly I start treating it again. “Lets eat." I mumble.

We reach a hotel but before I can get out of the car I get stopped by him. “What happened?" I asked confused.

“Food will come here." He replies. I nod my head in understanding. We wait for food in silence.

“You know I will not do anything like in past. I will not force you to stop talking with him or any boy. Yeah I am angry....not angry but furious as you know I am one shitty jealous person. But I would let you have him your boyfriend. And at the same time I would win your heart. It's another thing that I already have your heart."

“Vihaan why do you think I left you?" I ask. Because him winning me is a different thing. I didn't left him for his jealousy trait, I left him because his love was toxic and by seeing him it doesn't looks like it has changed to even a little bit.

“I don't wanna talk about that. Whenever I think about that day I just want to hurt you and that we don't want, do we?" I don't say anything because if I do it will change into a full blown fight. Our food arrives. As soon as driver leaves I say.

“You don't have to win my heart because it would be a waste of your effort since I am not going to let you in my life."

“WHY? Because I am married? Huh?" All the food falls on the floor.

“No because I left you for a reason. And that reason is you. Your toxic love. Your love that took our baby's life. Your love that took the very essence of our love away without any guilt and you still haven't realised it. I am sure even if I come to your life again and again I get pregnant wouldn't you take another life? Yes you would. You would do that again without any stammering." With that I open the door and stride away from him. My eyes hot wanting to shed some tears but I don't let them.

This time he didn't followed me. And I somehow reached home. I dart towards my room. Opening the drawer I take out the pills. I gulp down one pill and instantly everything numbs. I don't feel anything. I let myself fall on the bed and close my eyes.
