🌺🌻🌹🌷 Part 8 🌺🌻🌹🌷

Every person comes into our lives to teach us a lesson, and it's up to us what lessons we take from them.

Akash watched his brother in joy because of the smile plastered on his face after their encounter with that little angel.

He said a silent prayer to God for making this day a happy one as his brother who hasn't genuinely smiled in months was smiling.

But he knew it will be short lived immediately they enter the gates of RM.

They say family is a safe haven but to Akash and Arnav, it was the place they found the deepest heartache and betrayal.

And the saddest thing about heartache and betrayal, it doesn't come from your enemies but rather it comes from the people you love and cherish the most.

The sudden jerk of a car which was am indication that they've reach RM.

Akash was worried that Arnav will go back to his sad mood again but to his surprise the smile never left his face and more surprising was when he responded to Nani's greetings when they entered the hall leading to each of their respective rooms.

Akash stood at the entrance of the hall with a smile on his face as he watch Arnav took long strides to his room.

After Arnav disappeared to his room, Akash still stood in a trance thinking that today was not so bad, even though they couldn't speak to their wives, that little angel brightened up this day.

Akash reverie was broken by a tugging of his shirt, Akash look in that direction to see a smiling Nani looking at him with joy.

He wanted to reciprocate her smile but the shadows of the past clouded his head and he shot an anger look to Nani who looked done in shame knowing exactly what had made her grandson's smiling expression change to anger.

In her greed to save Anjali she lost both her grandsons. The same grandsons who looked at her with respect and adoration now look at her with disgust, anger and disgrace and she knew she had no one to blame but herself.

"What do you want? " Akash asked with anger and disgust lased in his voice breaking Nani out of her reverie.

Nani bowed her head in shame. Manorama who didn't like the way Akash spoke to her mother in law decided to reprimand Akash but it will be the biggest mistake.

"Hello hi bye bye why are you talking to your dadi like that, she is you.............. "

"ENOUGH" Akash yelled cutting off Mami and scaring the living daylight out of them. "What did you just say!............... Dadi? Which Dadi!? Huh! ..... The Dadi who claim to be the matriarch of this fake family. The Dadi who watched in silence at our atrocities against others. The Dadi that blackmailed and broke her own grandson to save her criminal granddaughter. And all just because he looked like his father and her criminal granddaughter looked like her beloved daughter. Bhai has been battling with his own demon since Ratna maa's suicide. The mere fact that he looked like his promiscuous father has always eaten him up and yet you did that." After that Akash paused and looked at his so-called Dadi and mother who were crying silently. Both wallowing in guilt of their respective crime. If it had been the old Akash he would have held back and apologized but his new Akash will never do that.)
" Bhai always took care of this family putting his life aside, working hours and countless day for us especially that criminal and sacrificing his life and love for us and yet what did he get in return!?
He got nothing but betrayal and pain. Mrs Jha was the one who was supposed to take care of the family but she left it to us her little siblings and took advantage of bhai's fears and silently controlled him with her sick sweetness and her limp, making all of us her puppets. And like the fool we all followed her blindly. "
