His Doll novel Chapter 30

Author's p.o.v

Bhabani yelled loudly, " Anamika". She can't believe her own eyes. She is feeling too much afraid. She can't believe how a dead person can alive suddenly. Bhabani's whole body is now shaking because of tremendous fear. She is sweating badly.  Her feet are shaking like anytime she will fall on the floor.

On the other hand, Anamika is just staring at Bhabani with too much hate, aggression and anger. She is wearing a white saree and her head partition is covered with too much vermilion.  Her eyes are showing only hate towards Bhabani. 

Anamika isn't saying anything. She is just glaring at Bhabani.

Bhabani asked with a shaky voice," how....can...you...b...e...a...li...ve? am....i..hallucinating? ".

This time Anamika laughed loudly like she is mocking Bhabani. Her laughing is echoing through the whole empty cement factory shaking Bhavani from her heart.

Anamika is now coming towards Bhabani and Bhabani is going backwards. Bhabani is looking like prey in front of Anamika. Anamika is taking predatory moves towards Bhabani.

Anamika opened her mouth and said angrily," You will pay for your sins".

Hearing Anamika, Bhabani is now hell afraid and again asked," How..c.a..n...you... be....alive?".

Hearing the question, Anamika didn't reply and again laughed but said nothing.

Suddenly Bhabani heard a male voice from behind. The voice said," Hey, who are you? What are you doing here?"

Bhabani immediately turned her head and found a watchman type of person. Without wasting any time, She ran towards the person and said catching her breath," Hey, there is a ghost. There is a ghost. She is.. She is..scaring me".

The watchman looked forward and found no one.

He said to Bhabani with a boring tone," Bahen ji( Mam) there is no one. This whole cement factory is empty for many years. Moreover, ghost doesn't exist".

Bhabani looked at the place where Anamika was standing. But the whole place is now empty like Anamika didn't even come here.

Bhabani is continuously saying to that Watchman type person," I am saying the truth. There is a ghost. I saw her with my own eyes."

The watchman is now totally irritated and dragged out Bhabani from the factory holding her hand. The whole time Bhabani was checking the factory with her scared and scrutinizing eyes.

After coming out from the factory, that watchman said with a pissed off tone," Bahen ji, it's evening time. And the darkness is increasing. You should go home and take rest". 

Though Bhabani listened to the watchman's advice but she is 100% sure it was Anamika whom she saw. Her whole mind is now saying only one thing," It's impossible. Anamika is dead".

She is chanting those words like a madwoman. She is feeling like anytime she will go crazy. She is so afraid that she has already forgotten that she came here to find Vivek's murderer. Bhabani is not in any state to walk. So, she took a taxi to go to her home.

When the taxi was leaving the cement factory area, again she noticed Anamika in front of the road. Before Bhabani could say anything some kind of truck came in front of the taxi. And When the truck passed, Anamika was not there. Like she has vanished in the air.

Seeing all this, Bhabani is now more afraid and started chanting God's name. Today's incident is too much for her. She never thought that she will again meet Anamika. But, this time the ghost of Anamika.

On the other hand, when Bhabani left the area Anamika came out behind a tree. She took out a phone from her bag which she is holding now. 

She called someone and said, " Boss, your plan is working. I have scared her so much that she would be scared even to go to the bathroom. For the next plan, I think you have promised me something.!!

The other person said something and Anamika said chuckling," Don't worry, boss. I will give this old fatty lady so much tension that just in 10-15 days she will lose all her colour along with her fatty tissues".

Saying that she laughed for sometimes and then cut the call. Then she said trailing her fingers on her face," I never thought that this face has too much importance".

Devika's  p.o.v

It's already 11:30 p.m. Abhinav hasn't returned yet. He informed me that he will be late and won't have dinner at home. 

Right now, I am studying attentively sitting at my table. I have to submit an assignment tomorrow. But, the assignment is too much hard. I tried to talk with Arushi about this assignment but she is too much engrossed in her another assignment. It's already 11:30 p.m. When will I complete this? Oh!! God, help me, please.

I am too much engrossed in my study that I didn't notice that someone has entered into the room silently. Suddenly, I felt someone is patting my head from behind. Realizing the sudden touch I become startled and looked behind. 

Seeing the person I immediately stood up from my seat and asked," when did you come? Why didn't you call me, Abhinav?. 

He didn't give me any answer but took the paper of my assignments in his hand. He is looking at the paper with concentration.

I am seeing him with fear and curious expression. What's he checking!!

He looked at me and said," So, it's not that difficult. Let me help you".

Saying that he sat down on the chair and told me to concentrate on whatever he is saying. Like an obedient kid, I am hearing his every word carefully. I can't believe my own ears and eyes that he is helping me in my studies!!

After some time he finished his saying and now the assignment topic is clear to me like clean water. What's he has eaten today that he is being too much generous!!

Even you can predict the sudden storm but can never predict this man's motive.!!

Looking at him I only said timidly," Thank you".

He didn't say anything just nodded his head.

Then, He removed his coat and tie. I immediately collected them and walked towards the closet to place them.

I opened the closet and started placing his coat and tie and started searching his night suit when he held me from behind.

I am not startled by the touch because I am now familiar with his touch. He buried his head inside my half-open hair and said smelling, " I missed you so much".

I didn't say anything. I am still searching for his night suit.

Today he is looking quite happy. What happened to him‌!! He is now roaming his hand on my bare navel and waist. 

I asked him normally, "why are you having Divalproex and Carbamazepine which are strong medicine and used for treating psychotic patients".

Listening to my words, His hold on me get loosened and he turned me towards him.

He held my chin tightly and asked with an angry tone," What did you say? From where you have learnt about those medicines?

" What are you hiding? I asked him removing his hand from my chin.

Flashback 

( Abhinav told me to leave his study room and I obliged like an obedient kid. But, before leaving the room I stole two empty packets of the pill.

I really wanted to know what kind of pill is he taking and what's he hiding. When he left for his office I read the description of the pill. But, I am not understanding for what kind of problem these drugs are taken. If I had a phone then I could have easily found out about these pills from Google. But, damn!! My possessive husband!! He didn't give me a phone. I thought to use Arushi's phone but she will ask me thousands of questions. It will be better to not involve her here. 

I know whom should I ask. Yes, I should ask Arnav about these pills. He is a doctor and obviously he will understand. Though I am not talking with him for many days but right now I need his help. Only he can help me in this matter. 

Arnav wasn't at home. So, I started waiting for him. In the evening, he came back and went directly to his room. I noticed that he has come when I was preparing some coffee for me. After too much hesitation I walked towards his room and knocked at the door. He told me to go inside.

I entered and saw him sitting on his bed and doing something on his laptop. Seeing me, he becomes surprised. I can see he is too much shocked after all I haven't talked with him for almost 8 months.

Before he could say anything, I said with too much hesitation," Umm, I want to ask you about something. I hope I am not disturbing you".  

Listening to me, he gave an awkward smile and said," Of course not. Umm!! Yea....is Abhi bhai at home?". 

I nodded my head in negative and I saw him having a relief of breath. Then he said looking directly at me," Tell me how may I help you?".

I didn't waste any time and walked towards him. I gave him the empty packets and asked, " Can you tell me for which problem these pills are taken?".
