*************************

Ruhani's POV

He gripped my hand tightly as we heard three different voices.

"Mom come and sit here."he made Vani Aunty sit on the bed.

"What scars Vikram?"she asked.

"Yes.And dont say it's nothing,we heard it."dad said.

"I will go and see what Meera aunty is doing."I told them as I was leaving the room.

"Angel.You will not go anywhere.You will stay here." Vicky's voice stopped me on the tracks and I turned around and went near him.

He sat on the bed beside mom.

"Vikram you are scraring me?Are you hurt?"aunty asked.

He slowly opened the buttons of his shirt.

"No."Akira shouted seeing all the scars.

Aunty and uncle were too shocked to say anything.

"I mean h..ow ..who?"aunty stuttered.

He closed his eyes and uttered one word.

"Grandmother."

"No my mother loves you.I mean she can never do this.How can she do this?"dad said.

"Yes dad."aunty traced all his scars.

"I failed as a mother."she said and her tears were not stopping.

"I failed as a mother."she mumbled the same line over and over.

"I want to know everything she did."aunty asked wiping her tears but her tears were not stopping.

"When I was eleven years old for the first time she hit me."he said and explained everything that day.The first day I saw him.

"And then she hit me almost every day."

She was crying loudly and after some time she started to coughing.

"Vani are you okay?"uncle asked patting her back.

"Can you please dont disturb when I am talking to MY son."she shouted and her eyes were red and swollen due to tear and anger.

"Why didn't you tell me?"she asked.

"At first when she hit me I was shocked mom,i didnt understand what to do and then she told me if I tell you something , you will not beleive me and you will throw me out of the house."

This was not the boss of the company,this was not my Vicky.This man sitting on the floor was a small child.

"No Vikram.No.I would have never send you away." she answered.

"I was afraid mom.I was scared that I will loose you and dad."

Now he was not a thirty year old man but an eleven year old child who was too scared that his mother will leave him.

I felt someone sobbing behind ne and I realized Akira was sitting on the corner of the bed and crying.I understood what she was feeling.

I sat on the bed beside her and held her hand and then I looked at Vicky and his mom.It felt so intimate that I felt like running out.

"These scars?" she asked.

"She burnt me with butter knife." he said as she was still tracing all the scars.
