Nita heard loud sound from bedroom. She was so scared.She looked at kids.Both Anna and Sunny looked scared.She didn't want Samar to create any drama before kids at least.She saw that now a days kids were getting scared even at mention of their father.It didn't seem fair to spoil their childhood like this.She tried to convince Samar about it.But he was not in state of listening to anyone.He was so depressed after losing his job that he just wanted to drink and scream on every one.It was creating worst effect on kids.They both were scared.They clearly remembered how last time their father threw away all the table because Nita forgot to add enough sugar to his coffee.But truth was that Samar just wanted to scream and throw out his frustration.Nita was so scared.Then suddenly Samar came out of their room.Samar smiled at them.It was unique incidence now a days Samar never smiled.Both kids were pleased.Then they saw that today he was not drank and he was ready to go out.Samar"Nita I finally managed to get one job.""What?When did you give interview?""I am giving today.But it was fixed.It is company of my friend and he will surly keep me."Every one was happy.But Nita kept her finger crossed because many friends had promised such things to Samar.But none of them was true to his word.That frustrated Samar more and more.She hoped it would not happen this time.Any way he was kissing kids and they were happy so she decided to enjoy that moment.But she didn't have much hopes.
But that night when she came home,she was surprised.Samar got everything ready.The house was decorated like festival.Kids were screaming with joy.Nita"What is it?"Anna"Mom Papa got a job manager in water park." Anna's mouth was full with cake and Sunny was eating burgers.It was nice Samar got job of manager in water park.When Nita didn't smile Samar got confused.Samar"What happen salary is nice?""But you don't know anything about water park."Samar gave his mischievous smile.Nita was missing it for many days. But today she was scared so she hardly noticed it.Samar"I took training from my friend.I also learnt to swim.First I want to apologize to you and kids for my wrong behaviour." "It's all right Papa."Kids screamed.Few cakes and snacks easily melted kid's heart.But Samar was tense about Nita's feelings.He saw that she was looking very upset in fact scared.Samar"What happened?You don't like this.""Samar problem is that your job is in water park.That means lot of water."Samar started laughing."Come on Nita it is water from tanks.Not a sea or river water which can drown me.""I know but still.""Come on Nita.I got this job after so many efforts.I can't leave it just because you hate water."Nita could clearly see that how upset Samar was.She didn't want him to lose his temper so she smiled.Then everything turned into normal.They all enjoyed that day.Next day Samar got ready and went to that park.Nita went to her job while kids went to school.Everything turned back into normal life and Nita once again called her Mother to babysit the kids.After all she could not trust a new babysitter so she told her Mom to stay with that babysitter and kids.
Nita was tense that day.She was sure that some thing wrong was going to happen on Samar's job.She was so tense that she called him immediately as soon as she reached office.Nita"Samar how are you?""Fine just began my work.Nita now don't call me.I am busy in meeting.""But..?""This is my first day and I don't want my boss and colleagues to find me chatting with wife so don't call.""Okay."But Samar had disconnected phone before hearing her reply.She went to hear work but she just couldn't able to concentrate.She was so scared to think about Samar in that water.She wanted to call him but his phone was switched off.Finally her boss brought a big file before her.She had to complete it.After all if one day Samar left that water was risky and decided to quit his job.She wanted her job to be intact.Then finally she reached home.She was hoping for Samar to be there.But he was not back from job yet.Nita was upset now.She once again started try to phone him.This time he picked it up.Nita "Where are you Samar?I am trying to get in touch with you for hours.""Now relax.I am checking everything before closing park. I need to be careful.I will come in few minutes.""Few minutes.No.If you have not left your office.It will take hours.""Sorry.But this is job.Come on Nita.Try to understand.I will come now." Nita was upset but she knew that there was no option except to say okay so she said it and started waiting for him.It was very late but still he didn't come.Finally he came and he looked exhausted but happy.Samar gave her one parcel.Nita looked inside.It had food for kids.Samar smiled."I brought it for kids.I am sure that they can enjoy it in morning."Nita looked for items.It was perfect since Samar lost the job.They never able to afford such time of food from hotels.She could imagine smile on kid's face.Nita smiled.Nita"Kids will be so happy to see this."Samar smiled and Nita decided that this job was best for their future.She could ignore her fears.
After that each day began to bring joy in their life.Samar was so happy with his job.He was enjoying it.Samar began to spend limited time with kids.But it was nice and pleasant time.Once again kids began admire their father.But one day suddenly Samar brought a free stay coupon from water park.Nita never guessed that his water park had facility of staying.It was kid's vacation so kids started dancing with joy after hearing it.But Nita got tense.She was not interested going near water but she couldn't disappoint kids like this.She was so panicked.But suddenly Samar came near her.Samar"I know you hate water so you can stay home and I will take care of kids.""Thanks." So she prepared their lunch next day and they went away with Samar.They were insisting her to come but Samar managed to convince them so they finally went.After that she carefully kept away from Samar's water park.She was convinced that everything was fine.Until one day she heard screaming of kids from bathroom.She was so scared when she heard those screams.She ran towards bathroom until now she always kept away from bathroom.Samar always took care of kid's bath.Even in his worst days he never forgot to do that work.She just hated water.Now kids were grown up.They did their bath by themselves.But this was first time when she heard them screaming so she controlled her fear and when in bathroom.When she entered in bathroom,she felt strange fear from water.But then she saw that Anna was screaming and Sunny was fallen on the floor.She went near Sunny and then moment she felt water.She looked above her head.The shower was open.She saw that Sunny was laughing and she could hear Anna's laugh from behind.But before she could do anything water started falling on her from every side.She was getting wet then she suddenly started feeling as if water was sucking life out of her.She just could run away from it.She felt as if her legs had lost their strength She could even able to scream.She started making strange noises.She was suffocating under that water.Her whole body started shivering.Slowly she felt as if her lungs were on fire.She just could breath.Then she began to faint.While fainting she clearly felt the pain on her forehead.A strong pain as if she was cut by some knife. But she just couldn't open her eyes.They were already too heavy.Finally she fully lost her sense.
When she woke up,she was in hospital.Her kids were sitting near her bed.Both were crying in Samar's arm.She could clearly see that Samar must have screamed on them.Guilt was written on their faces.Nita decided to pretend as if everything was fine.Nita"So what happen?"Samar"Don't you remember anything?"Nita decided to play mischief on them."Sorry I don't know you.Who are you and who am I?"Samar looked scared and kids started crying.But after seeing their sorrows she couldn't control herself.She started laughing.Samar looked at her with anger.Samar"First you fall on your head and then you were unconscious for day.After that you scare us like that.How can you act in such inhuman way!!""What I was unconscious for one day?"Samar once again controlled his anger.Samar"I know.It was due to that water.But I just don't understand why are you so much scare of water?"Anna spoke"Mama we are sorry.Papa said that day in park only if you once try to go in water.You will love it so we thought.."Then she started crying.Nita looked at Samar with shock.Samar"Sorry.I just said it in that frustration.I missed you so much in that park.There was one happy family there and if you were present so I thought only if you can.."Nita stopped him.Nita"It's okay.I can understand.Let just forget it."Then Nita slept again.Suddenly she felt that she was thirsty.Nita"Can you give me a glass of water?""Sure."Samar brought glass of water for her.It was worst moment for Nita.She was so scared.Nita screamed.Nita"Keep it away from me."She started running to other side of room.Nita was closing her eyes to avoid looking at water.Samar ran towards her while doing that he kept the glass of the water on table.When he left that glass,Nita let him come near her.All nurses and many doctors were gathered around and slowly patients also started looking inside.Nita"I don't want water near me."Samar"But you said that you are thirsty.""No I will never drink that water."Nita's face was completely pale and she was shivering.This never happened to her.Samar knew that she hated water but never that way and so much.It was something beyond his control.Then a nurse entered and forcibly took Nita back to bed.But Nita was still looking at that glass of water with strange fear.Then that whole day Nita was not ready to drink drop of water.Finally a psychiatrist was called.He talked with Nita for long time.Then he came out. Psychiatrist"Why did you wait for so long time to bring her here?"Samar"But she was fine.""Fine.She couldn't go near bathroom and swimming pool.How did she use to take bath?""With bucket full of water."Doctor looked at Samar with frustration.Psychiatrist"This is too much."Anna"Did we make our Mom ill?"Psychiatrist"Who told you that?She was ill already.You didn't do anything wrong."Kids looked relived."Your wife is suffering from Aqua Phobia.In this people are scared of water and it turned extreme due to negligence."Samar looked ashamed.But he never guessed that his wife needed a Psychiatrist."Don't worry.She will be fine.I have convinced her to drink water.She will drink it."Samar was so happy.Then when Doctor started going away.Samar screamed after him."Doctor will you stop."Doctor stopped.Samar"My wife never had any trauma with water then why did she suffer this problem?""I don't know."After saying this Doctor went away in such normal way as if he said nothing unusual while giving answer to Samar.Samar continued looking at him with shock.
The End
