Chapter 1: prologue
Hasty heafty smiles , forcing another smile for the day it finally comes to an end. Heavy steps made their way to the pavement. Shovling her apron she was kind of in a hurry. Her eyes felt numb , tears prickling with a anxious speed. Accelerating her car driving her way off the hospital, she just wants to get in the bed as soon as possible. She wants to breakdown, breakdown for the moment. At the moment she just wants her safe place , her home.
As she hastily snapped down her bunglow door , she made her way upstairs. All she wants was him , him and him only. His shirt, it smelled like him. Tears soaked the fabric of the old ragged white shirt she held so close to her heart. Snot covering the cloth now and then. She brings herself to the bed , drowning in the soft mattress below. She must take a hold of her emotions. But how ?! Not when she needs him the most .
' hello !? maa I want to come home ' her voice cracked like ice . Forcing another sentence was a hard math to do now. She cuts the call abruptly, rather in a hurry. She would finally go home after these many years . She will give her resignation letter to the Chairman soon. She doesn't wants to work here anymore , not when she feels the danger. Not when she isn't with him. Her suitcase almost broke due to the load. She rather had more clothes of him than her own. She wants to keep his memories with her forever. Her furnitures could be bought back to her home town , it's not the issue. But the memories that place held , how could she bring them to her home? Silence. That consumed the whole bunglow , rather now a narrow suffocating place. ' One last time ' she breathed out irradically. Getting down the room she held most of her glee . The room now has more dust than joy. Her eyes burned from the tears , but her heart burned through the known melancholy. 'It's the end '
'Not this soon' a sinister laugh , it was him . Him again , he , he was there . There to take her away . He will hurt her more now. He will choke her to death. He will chain her and torture just like he did to him . He won't spare . Not a single being. He is here for her. Only and only for her.
He laughed like a manic, he was one. He didn't stop. She cried aloud. Sobs after sobs , laughs after laughs . A sudden push made him stumble. ' you dared to do that daffodil?' ' do more , i like it when you touch my already burning skin , it feels so sensual almost like i will come done in my pants if you do more ' laughing histerically as he shared his prevailing thoughts more like fantasies.
Sick , he was and he would make her too.
' leave me , please i won't ever intefere , not into your sick games not into your personal life not even in your dreams ' She held her hads , begging him for this one escape.
' daffodil , not this soon , or should I say not now or ever , I have nothing in my life , no one , just you , you and you . How could I let you escape me and brighten the garden of any other gardener. You are a flower, born to shine in my garden , now it's my mind to either leave you untouched and shower you with all the love or ravish you and pluck you till you know that to never walk away from your only man'
A sharp pain made it's way to her head , death was better than this pain. She held her head tight her vision blurring , eyes shutting every now and then. A series of mumbles can be heard from her lips , almost inaudible. ' yes darling , yes I will get your favourite sarees , all those sexy blouses I have planned to make you wear , I have it all now sleep tight ' He said . ' you bastard , nastiest , psycho rapist fuck off of me ge away , get away ' her voice slurred out. One last hit and she has drifted to sleep.
' Never ever talk to your husband like this , didn't my mother in law teach you , how to be a perfect wife , if not then I will make. I know many girly secrets too , you know I am so handy with people that i almost get them under me and suck their soul out . You know right , Jaan , how much of a crack I am for you , you know to never go against me then why do you force me to take such actions. Or do you by chance don't want me? Or by any chance do you want that so called dead boyfriend of yours , he deserved what he got , he tried to fuck my wife behind my back . Are you perhaps along with him ? did you love him ? love him so much that you wanted to never look towards me , leave me ?! Oh then you deserve every bit of this ' His voice was raged , he talked to his own self . His eyes shone with a glee , sick emotions . Wicked , cunning , immoral , destroyer of humanity he is every other synonym of 'evil'.
" Dhriya Shastri " he paused "be my daffodil or you know I never fail to eat anybody's heart out , as cannibalism isn't something i would fear to commit , i fear to accept your hatred , your absence , that's it" Period.
