Dishonest
Nina started playing with doll. She knew that she was adult now but still when she went in clean attic, she noticed doll. Then without second thought she started playing with that cute doll. It was so pretty. She began to imagine her childhood again. It was so wonderful. She began to think who should be owner of that doll. She smiled and hoped that her husband Tushar didn't play with this. She started laughing to herself at this thought. Tushar was not in house at that time. He was in his office. But she decided that she could take anything by her choice in house. After all she was his wife so she had right in house. She took that and started going down. It was not easy. She married Tushar just a month ago. She didn't feel as if she owned this house. Her mother-in-law and her father-in-law were staying with them. They seemed like true owner. In fact she was scared to go against their wishes. Few times she started missing freedom of her parent's house. But then her house was not that big and her in-laws were nice people. They never tried to scare her. It was her timid attitude which managed to scare her every time. She was so upset by it. She wanted to brave and wanted to share her desire before all. She was advised by her cousin Meera that she should not nod to everything she should express her views too. It was important for her. But she didn't want to argue. Her Mom advised her to go slow. She should not start arguing next day after marriage. Meera's marriage was not ideal one. She was telling about expressing her view but Meera expressed them in her house and turn back on every view when her husband gave her money or some big gift. So she didn't consider Meera's advice as ideal one. She was so tense. It was scary for her. She wanted true love of her husband. She didn't want money of her in-laws. She wanted their love. She decided that she might ask her mother-in-law. She was so confused. She looked around attic. She needed to arrange all. She didn't want to go down again on that ladder. Their attic was not proper room. It was just small room created to reduce height of roof. It was created just to keep useless things. It was so dirty. It was not easy to come down. She decided that she could ask with screams. She screamed loudly " Can I keep a doll which is here?" Her mother-in-law Kanti Bai was in kitchen. She didn't hear her clearly but she sensed once again her daughter-in-law Nina was asking something she wanted which actually belonged to her only. Kanti Bai laughed. Nina was such a sweet girl while other girls wanted authority over house next day after marriage she kept asking for permission after month. She felt so happy. She liked that respect but it was irritating too. Every time she needed to clearify every one that she was doing it on her own willingness. She was not forced. At beginning Kanti Bai used to get upset but then she saw childish fear in Nina's eyes and she remembered her daughter. That daughter who didn't survive long enough to grow up. She shivered in fear. She didn't want to remember her specially after getting over it and achieving such happy life again. She smiled and said " Okay.. okay take it honey." She gave that answer without even asking about thing she wanted. Kanti Bai knew Nina was wise enough to take care of anything. She had everything which belonged to Kanti Bai. Kanti Bai dotted Nina. She was childish and beautiful. Kanti Bai laughed for sometime. Then she started back her work. Nina was happy that she finally got permission. She took that doll in her arms. She watched it carefully. It was doll of clothes. She needed to clean it properly. She decided that she could even do some more artistic things on her. She smiled. She kept it in corner. Then she started cleaning it. She did all. She saw many treasures of Kanti Bai. Her old sandal showpieces, her copper pots even her some silver pots. She didn't like to see silver being kept such carelessly. She started packing it. She decided that she should purchase some cupboard and lock it. She started checking it. Then she slowly sensed even golden items were kept there. She was so shocked when she saw diamond earrings and gold necklace in that scrap. She was so confused. Then she started laughing. She understood all. It was imitation jewellery and Kanti Bai got bore of it so she stored. She smiled happily. She decided that she should not ask again. She knew that first permission was regarding everything. She smiled happily and took entire treasure to her bedroom. But not before cleaning attic it was perfect now. She was so happy. She felt as if she was kid and was doing treasure hunting. It was so promising. She smiled happily. She began to search for place to keep her good. But she needed to first clean doll. Then she took that Doll and went in bathroom. But then she sensed something was stuck behind Doll. She started pulling it. After long efforts finally it came out. She started watching it. She was shocked to see her father-in-law Harish Dada's photos with women. She didn't understand what was it. She felt so scared. She just took that doll and packed in suitcase. She started to shiver with fear. She didn't want to remember it. But she couldn't just forget it still she started to working on it.
Harish Dada was sleeping peacefully in room while his wife Kanti Bai was cooking and Nina was cleaning. Harish Dada didn't able to get much sleep now a days. It was so frustrating. Entire night he kept sitting. He asked Doctor some medicines regarding it but Doctor didn't gave them. He was very upset regarding whole affair of Tushar's marriage. Kanti Bai and Tushar did everything in big way with happiness but Harish Dada didn't like it specially since they took that room as bedroom for Tushar. It was not right. He wanted to keep it for his daughter. He knew that she would not come back but still. He wanted her memory but they wanted to bury it. He knew that he had to do it one day. But he didn't understand why? Every one kept saying it but he didn't agree with them. He felt that it was totally wrong. He was so frustrated. She was his daughter. She was his sign of love towards his wife. She was not some crime he needed to hide. He loved his daughter who was dead now. Nothing was wrong in this incidence. It was tragic. But he didn't understand need to hide it. But when he started to say it, Tushar talked with him in arrogant way and said " If you want to keep one room in memory of your daughter then you should have bought big house. I need one room and I don't want argument about it." Kanta Bai immediately took side of her son. " He is right. He needed one room." Then Harish Dada didn't seem to have much option so he agreed but he was upset in his heart. He wanted one room to be kept for his daughter but it was not possible. Kanti Bai didn't know his secrets which he shared with his daughter Prachi. Prachi was so small and so cute. She used to call him " Papa.." He could still remember her voice. That sweet, cute and innocent voice was soul of his life. He used to like Kanti Bai but still she was not something he wished for. She knew that he should not discuss such things with his small daughter but one day due to fluke she saw him with a girl from office. They were taking lunch. It was nothing serious. He was not planning to marry her or divorce wife. But he was having affair with her. He knew that no one would understand it. He was planning to tell Kanti Bai that he was going out on business. She didn't need to know about it. But Prachi saw them. She didn't ran to Mom like Tushar with every information. In fact he didn't understood it until she didn't tell him. He enjoyed his stay in hotel for a week and came back. He remembered to buy gifts for all. He started giving them. Prachi came near him and sat in his lap and said peacefully. " I know you like that Auntie more than Mom but I like that frock more than this chocolate." Then she gave sweet smile and vanished. Then she came back with picture of frock. There was sweet smile on her face. He could not consider it blackmail. He was doing it willingly. After that he started sharing his every secret with his daughter until her death. Prachi died due to sickness. He never knew how did her sickness turned in such worst way. She seemed like healthy child until that sickness didn't touch her. Her sickness getting risky every day. He took her to many doctors but nothing seemed to work. Kanti Bai was supportive but she was not sad like him. In fact many times he felt that she was not that much concerned about Prachi. Whenever he tried to tell this to others they didn't believe him. They began to lecture him that he must not put whole blame on wife. But he hated her. He was sure that she killed Prachi. He was so frustrated when he heard loud voice. He came out of room and screamed " What happened?" Kanti Bai " Nothing. I was cooking and one pot fall." " How stupid you are?!! Now you have destroyed one nice pot and where is your dear daughter-in-law?!! I feel she over slept again!!" " She is not the one who overslept every day." Harish Dada was very angry. His eyes became red. He was getting ready to threw few things. He needed to scare Kanti Bai more. She was getting brave day by day. She must stay under his thumb. It was precious. He screamed " What did you think of yourself?" Then he started cursing her in loud voice. Kanti Bai was so upset. She was not scared for herself. She had tolerated her husband enough to ignore his attitude but she knew that it would scare Nina. Nina was simple girl. She didn't seem to have ever tolerated loud voice in her house these curses would be too much for her. Kanti Bai " What did you want?" " I want that room back?!!" " Please stop it." Harish Dada screamed on her " I will not." He began to throw away things. Nina slowly opened door of room. But she shivered when she sensed what was going on. She was seeing there when one pot came towards her. She just managed narrow escape. Nina looked at Harish Dada with anger and shock. He screamed on her " Didn't your parents taught you manners? How could you look at your elder this way?!!" She shivered. " I am sorry." She said in slow voice. Harish Dada gave cruel smile and looked at Kanti Bai with taunting look. Nina went back in her room. She started crying. She began to regret her decision to marry in this house. Her husband was nice. Her mother-in-law was just like God's gift but her father-in-law was literally monster. She needed to lock herself in room when he threw fit of anger. She shivered.
Nina was so upset. When they did enquiries, every one said Tushar was nice man. Her mother-in-law was nice. It was good family but no one mentioned her evil father-in-law. She was so upset. But outside that door Harish Dada was so happy. " She will not stay here for long time. Just watch me how did I will get rid of her. I am boss of this house. No one can stay in this house against my wishes." He screamed loudly on Kantibai and went in room. She was so confused. She didn't understand how did she supposed to act. On that point she heard another soul in herself. She shivered. She never told anyone about it. It was top secret. She never told it to anyone. When she was small her grandmother died due to heart attack. It was sudden. She was old woman but no one could have guessed that she could die suddenly but she did it . After it one day she started to hear her grandmother's voice. She kept ignoring it. One day she told her Mom about it. Her Mom shivered. Mom " Your grandmother always wanted to stay with you so she is helping you. Maybe we should go to someone who know about it and stop it. There must be some exorcist who could do it for us?!!" " No..no Mom I don't want to hurt grandmother's soul." " But you can't keep it inside you?!!" " Mom I can." Her Mom was shocked. Then her Mom tried to meet some priest to help her but she objected. There was big argument when she came with priest. She sensed her grandmother on that point. That voice said " If you feel so much haterd towards me than you want to remove me then I will go." She told grandmother in mind. " No..no I want peace for you." Then she heard her sweet laugh. She was sure that this soul was her soul. Her grandmother said " Fine I will go but always remember I will come when I sense your need." She vanished. She told it to Mom. But on that time Dad heard little bit. Then he took her to some Doctor. She chatted with him for few days. But when she told him her grandmother was no longer with her. He smiled happily. She also felt happy. Then her grandmother never came back. But her father kept questioning her. She kept telling him that she would not come back. Her grandmother never came back until she was abused by Harish Dada. Her husband always called Dada. She thought that it was due to affection but it was due to fear. Soon she sensed that her husband had one bad habit. He used people's mistake as a way to fulfill his wishes. It was not by affection. He was expert in coercion. She was so tense when she started hearing his conversation. On that point for first time she heard her grandmother's voice again. She shivered with fear. She knew that she couldn't stop her. Her grandmother was always dominating until unstoppable. She never let any other family member to dominate her. She never understood one word adjustment. She didn't hurt Harish Dada. She said that he was her husband according to her old beliefs. Her husband was important for her future. But then Prachi came. She started following her father's footsteps. At beginning Kanti Bai didn't notice it. Prachi seemed so innocent. She was little girl of ten years. On that point she noticed. Prachi sat on her father's lap. Prachi " Will you bring that red frock?" Kanti Bai was shocked. It was so strange. She knew very well that Prachi hated red colour. She never wanted anything in red. It was strange. Kanti Bai didn't say anything. But she understood one thing that Prachi knew something which she didn't otherwise Harish Dada would never give her money. Then Prachi took money. Kanti Bai wanted to confront her but on that moment her grandmother stopped her. She knew that she was not existed but she was there in her mind. Grandmother " Don't warn her." She wanted to answer her. But she couldn't. She just stopped there. She obeyed her grandmother same way as she obeyed when she was alive. She was so confused. She understood her grandmother had some plan which she wanted to execute. She sensed one thing that she needed to talk to her Mom and she needed to go to her priest. She had to stop this ghost. Then she went back in kitchen. Prachi kept talking sweetly like angel. Kanti Bai kept acting as normal as possible. Prachi didn't sense any difference but when Tushar came in kitchen, he immediately asked " What happened Mom? You are looking pale!!" She shivered. She wanted to hold him and cry. She wanted to tell him everything but she stopped. He was her precious jewel. She needed to protect him from everything. She gave sad smile and said " Nothing. Every thing is fine. I just caught some cold. " He looked concerned and said " Mom take care." Prachi nodded but she didn't care. On that day Prachi bought parcel with her so she managed to buy that red frock. Now Kanti Bai was so upset. She wanted to argue but her grandmother didn't let her. She decided to call her Mom when Prachi was in school. She knew her grandmother must had followed Prachi there. She told everything to Mom. They immediately went to priest who did many rituals. Kanti Bai was sure that now her grandmother wouldn't return like she didn't return last time. But when Prachi entered in house, her grandmother returned again. She sensed it. Kanti Bai shivered as she remembered those days.
Kanti Bai didn't want to remember it but she couldn't forget it. Her grandmother said " Your daughter is going wrong way. She is wearing that dress for someone. We can catch her red handed!!" She didn't want to do it but she couldn't stop herself. She kept taking deep breath. Kanti Bai was shocked when she went after Prachi. She wanted to stop herself but she couldn't. But her shock was worst when she saw that Prachi was talking with some boy. It was not normal chatting. Prachi was looking at that boy in special way. It was something totally wrong. Prachi started to tell him that she got red frock. Soon Kanti Bai sensed that she might change it before him. She decided to call her. But then she sensed that it was not first time. She shivered with ashame. Her daughter was doing totally wrong things at such small age. She lost control of her body. She began to get weak before her grandmother. Then her grandmother started her plan. She started to force her to buy different things to make her sick. She didn't understand from where she got them. She was so upset with her daughter that she no longer cared. She didn't wanted to kill her. But still she no longer desired to protect her. Then slowly Prachi started to get sick. Kanti Bai didn't want it but grandmother wanted just Prachi's death and Kanti Bai didn't stop her. Finally Prachi died and on that day grandmother quit her body. She started taking care of Tushar like he was her only child. She tried her best to forget Prachi. After all it was not her mistake her grandmother did it. But today once again she heard her voice. Grandmother " Until now I never touched Harish Dada because he is your husband but now he is acting in wrong way. I don't like the way he looked at her." She was confused. Then she understood that her grandmother felt that Harish Dada was looking at Nina in wrong way. She felt so much anger built inside. Harish Dada was sleeping peacefully in room. He had created this entire drama with one motive. He wanted Tushar to live in separate house. He wanted that couple out of his house. He didn't like his son Tushar and his wife was burden in his eyes. But somewhere in his soul he decided that he needed to make this clear to his daughter-in-law too. Nina was so scared. She was sitting on bed when Harish Dada came to her bedroom door. He threw paper of one flat before her. " I want to see you and your husband out of this house." Nina shivered. " Take this paper and go away." Nina nodded. Kanti Bai was keeping watch on Harish Dada and she took this in wrong way. She went in kitchen and started searching for herb. She gave it to Prachi in small dose. She started to do it again. Nina was confused and scared. She decided that she must talk with Kanti Bai before calling Tushar. When Nina went in kitchen, she noticed those herbs. She shivered. She assumed that Kanti Bai hated them so much that she was trying to posion them. Nina knew that Tushar didn't believe her so she did entire video. Then she ran back in room. She told Tushar every thing on phone. Then she first took promise from him that he would not get angry. Tushar " Just tell me!! What's wrong?" " Your Mom is putting some strange herbs in food like hysteric woman." " What? Are you out of mind?!!" " No need to trust me. I send video." She sent it immediately. Tushar watched it. He could clearly see it was some herb. Kanti Bai put it in food on large scale. He didn't want to eat it. She remembered that she used to put something like that for Prachi too. It was his Mom's remedy to cure patient. Tushar called back. " We will not eat at home today. It's Mom's remedy to cure." " Did she gave it to you?!!" " No she use to give it to my sick sister who is now.."" Dead?!!" Nina completed it for him. Nina " I hope you understood my point." Tushar " I don't understand." Nina " Come home and talk to your Mom." Tushar agreed. He ran to Boss and requested. Boss was clearly upset. " You can't keep demanding vacation like that." " I know Sir. Just today my Mom is sick." " Okay just for one day." " Yes..yes thank you so much." Then he literally ran out of his office. When he reached home, Nina immediately opened door. Then Tushar saw Kanti Bai in kitchen. She was cooking in normal way now. But he still sensed something was different. Tushar came near her and said " Mom!!" " Yes baby!! I am your Grandma. I am cooking your favourite cookies. Chocolate chips for my little bunny." And she kissed him like his grandmother did. Tushar shivered. Tushar " What's wrong with you Mom?" " I am not your Mom. I am your Grandma. Shh.. don't talk loudly your father will wake up. This is top secret between us." Tushar was so shocked. He didn't understand what he supposed to say. Then she turned to Nina. "Don't you desire my blessings?" Nina nodded and came ahead. She slapped Tushar on back and said " Join her." Then she smiled and said " I will cook today. Go out and enjoy yourself. In our time we were just caged in house. I don't want it for you. Go..go" They nodded and vanished.
As soon as they came out of kitchen, Tushar told Nina " We must go to Doctor. I never saw her like that." Nina " What about your Dad?" He was so angry. He didn't want to help Harish Dada at all. But he knew that if he wanted to avoid murder from his mother's hand. He needed to do it. Tushar "Let's first call Doctor." He went out of house and came in corner. He called Doctor and told all. During his call suddenly Kanti Bai came from behind and asked angrily " Whom you are calling now? I told you that you must go out!!" Nina smiled and said " Mom.. I mean Grandma he is calling Taxi!!" " Taxi? Are you planning to go out of town?" Nina was confused. Nina " We were but if you object then.." " No..no go enjoy yourself life." Nina took breath of relief. Doctor must heard it. Doctor " Be careful don't make her angry." Tushar nodded without sensing Doctor couldn't see him. He shivered with fear. Tushar smiled and said " Can I cancel booking?" " No..no go. Today I am cooking special lunch for your father. He is missing Prachi so much." Tushar nodded. Then they went out. Nina came near Tushar and started to scream on him. " Call Doctor immediately!!" " What happened?" " She is planning to kill your Dad same way in which she killed your sister. " Tushar called Doctor once again and told him suspicion. Doctor " Don't worry I have contacted psychiatrist. He will come with ambulance." " But do you feel my Mom will land in jail?" " She is confessing in her madness and there is not existence of proof but if she kill now then she couldn't escape law. Go and stop her." Tushar agreed and went inside. Harish Dada was waiting for lunch. But when Tushar came in Kanti Bai shivered. Tushar sensed that he was not ready to posion them. He began to get confident. Tushar smiled and said " We can't able to get Taxi so we will take lunch." Kanti Bai started to look angry. " No need to wait. Go and take any Taxi." Nina joined it too. " But we have booked." Kanti Bai " Just go. I will pay." Tushar went to food. " Wow this looks so tasty." His move turned out to be biggest mistake. She started to scream " Don't touch that food." Harish Dada was shocked. He screamed " What's wrong with you? Let him eat!!" Kanti Bai screamed " No..no you are the one who supposed to eat it. You are the one who tried molest daughter-in-law!!" Harish Dada was shocked. He started cursing Nina " How could you say such things about me?!!" Nina " I said nothing." Kanti Bai " So you are enjoying his touches too?!" Nina screamed " Stop this mad woman!!" That was Nina's worst mistake. Kanti Bai took food and ran towards her. She started to try to force it under her throat. Harish Dada and Tushar tries to stop her but she seemed to possess supernatural power. She even managed to throw them out of her way. Tushar was so confused then Harish Dada came running towards him with plate of food started pretending that he would force it under his throat. Harish Dada " If you kill her then I will kill him." She screamed " Don't do it . You have lots of girlfriends but I have just one son." " Then Go away.. go away." Then Kanti Bai shivered and screamed in pain. She finally fall on floor. Nina slowly went away and started running towards door. But Tushar stopped her. " Take this money and go to your parents. I will call you back when she will be admitted in hospital." She nodded and vanished. Harish Dada "We must tie her. She is possessed." " Possessed?!! My foot !! This happened because of your attitude and what you taught to Prachi." Harish Dada was about to argue when she woke up and started asking questions regarding what happened. But they didn't answer. They just kept quiet. Then ambulance came. As soon as Doctors started taking her away she began to scream again in horrible way. They didn't went inside ambulance instead of that they followed it. When they came, Doctor already managed to admit her. Psychiatrist came out to talk with them. " Kanti Harish is suffering due to disassociative personality disorder. It happened immediately after her grandmother's death it happened because her father was abusive and man of bad character while her grandmother had control over him so she tried to bring her back this way. I don't know how much it helped but when Harish started behaving same way in fact worst than him. That disorder came back in horrible way. In fact she even managed to kill her daughter in it. Of course that is our guess we don't have any proof. But finally it became worst when Harish started rejecting their son for dead daughter. Then she began to create horrible stories." " But will you able to cure her?" Tushar asked. Harish Dada " No..no keep her. Do you want to keep that murderer in your house?" Tushar was confused. Psychiatrist " It is not your choice. When we think she is fine we will send her back." Tushar nodded. They went out. Harish Dada " I don't want her to stay with me!!" " Fine. She will stay in third flat. I want you to keep it on her name & we both will keep some amount for her in bank." " No I will go in other flat. You should pay for her daily expenses." Tushar thought and nodded. Tushar " Just gave that flat and you will never see our faces again." Harish Dada smiled. "Will you give it in writing?" " Yes." Then Harish Dada and Tushar went away in separate way. None of them was interested in seeing other person's face. Tushar just called Nina to check that he had other flats documents so he got two flats he needed from father.
The End
Nina started playing with doll. She knew that she was adult now but still when she went in clean attic, she noticed doll. Then without second thought she started playing with that cute doll. It was so pretty. She began to imagine her childhood again. It was so wonderful. She began to think who should be owner of that doll. She smiled and hoped that her husband Tushar didn't play with this. She started laughing to herself at this thought. Tushar was not in house at that time. He was in his office. But she decided that she could take anything by her choice in house. After all she was his wife so she had right in house. She took that and started going down. It was not easy. She married Tushar just a month ago. She didn't feel as if she owned this house. Her mother-in-law and her father-in-law were staying with them. They seemed like true owner. In fact she was scared to go against their wishes. Few times she started missing freedom of her parent's house. But then her house was not that big and her in-laws were nice people. They never tried to scare her. It was her timid attitude which managed to scare her every time. She was so upset by it. She wanted to brave and wanted to share her desire before all. She was advised by her cousin Meera that she should not nod to everything she should express her views too. It was important for her. But she didn't want to argue. Her Mom advised her to go slow. She should not start arguing next day after marriage. Meera's marriage was not ideal one. She was telling about expressing her view but Meera expressed them in her house and turn back on every view when her husband gave her money or some big gift. So she didn't consider Meera's advice as ideal one. She was so tense. It was scary for her. She wanted true love of her husband. She didn't want money of her in-laws. She wanted their love. She decided that she might ask her mother-in-law. She was so confused. She looked around attic. She needed to arrange all. She didn't want to go down again on that ladder. Their attic was not proper room. It was just small room created to reduce height of roof. It was created just to keep useless things. It was so dirty. It was not easy to come down. She decided that she could ask with screams. She screamed loudly " Can I keep a doll which is here?" Her mother-in-law Kanti Bai was in kitchen. She didn't hear her clearly but she sensed once again her daughter-in-law Nina was asking something she wanted which actually belonged to her only. Kanti Bai laughed. Nina was such a sweet girl while other girls wanted authority over house next day after marriage she kept asking for permission after month. She felt so happy. She liked that respect but it was irritating too. Every time she needed to clearify every one that she was doing it on her own willingness. She was not forced. At beginning Kanti Bai used to get upset but then she saw childish fear in Nina's eyes and she remembered her daughter. That daughter who didn't survive long enough to grow up. She shivered in fear. She didn't want to remember her specially after getting over it and achieving such happy life again. She smiled and said " Okay.. okay take it honey." She gave that answer without even asking about thing she wanted. Kanti Bai knew Nina was wise enough to take care of anything. She had everything which belonged to Kanti Bai. Kanti Bai dotted Nina. She was childish and beautiful. Kanti Bai laughed for sometime. Then she started back her work. Nina was happy that she finally got permission. She took that doll in her arms. She watched it carefully. It was doll of clothes. She needed to clean it properly. She decided that she could even do some more artistic things on her. She smiled. She kept it in corner. Then she started cleaning it. She did all. She saw many treasures of Kanti Bai. Her old sandal showpieces, her copper pots even her some silver pots. She didn't like to see silver being kept such carelessly. She started packing it. She decided that she should purchase some cupboard and lock it. She started checking it. Then she slowly sensed even golden items were kept there. She was so shocked when she saw diamond earrings and gold necklace in that scrap. She was so confused. Then she started laughing. She understood all. It was imitation jewellery and Kanti Bai got bore of it so she stored. She smiled happily. She decided that she should not ask again. She knew that first permission was regarding everything. She smiled happily and took entire treasure to her bedroom. But not before cleaning attic it was perfect now. She was so happy. She felt as if she was kid and was doing treasure hunting. It was so promising. She smiled happily. She began to search for place to keep her good. But she needed to first clean doll. Then she took that Doll and went in bathroom. But then she sensed something was stuck behind Doll. She started pulling it. After long efforts finally it came out. She started watching it. She was shocked to see her father-in-law Harish Dada's photos with women. She didn't understand what was it. She felt so scared. She just took that doll and packed in suitcase. She started to shiver with fear. She didn't want to remember it. But she couldn't just forget it still she started to working on it.
Harish Dada was sleeping peacefully in room while his wife Kanti Bai was cooking and Nina was cleaning. Harish Dada didn't able to get much sleep now a days. It was so frustrating. Entire night he kept sitting. He asked Doctor some medicines regarding it but Doctor didn't gave them. He was very upset regarding whole affair of Tushar's marriage. Kanti Bai and Tushar did everything in big way with happiness but Harish Dada didn't like it specially since they took that room as bedroom for Tushar. It was not right. He wanted to keep it for his daughter. He knew that she would not come back but still. He wanted her memory but they wanted to bury it. He knew that he had to do it one day. But he didn't understand why? Every one kept saying it but he didn't agree with them. He felt that it was totally wrong. He was so frustrated. She was his daughter. She was his sign of love towards his wife. She was not some crime he needed to hide. He loved his daughter who was dead now. Nothing was wrong in this incidence. It was tragic. But he didn't understand need to hide it. But when he started to say it, Tushar talked with him in arrogant way and said " If you want to keep one room in memory of your daughter then you should have bought big house. I need one room and I don't want argument about it." Kanta Bai immediately took side of her son. " He is right. He needed one room." Then Harish Dada didn't seem to have much option so he agreed but he was upset in his heart. He wanted one room to be kept for his daughter but it was not possible. Kanti Bai didn't know his secrets which he shared with his daughter Prachi. Prachi was so small and so cute. She used to call him " Papa.." He could still remember her voice. That sweet, cute and innocent voice was soul of his life. He used to like Kanti Bai but still she was not something he wished for. She knew that he should not discuss such things with his small daughter but one day due to fluke she saw him with a girl from office. They were taking lunch. It was nothing serious. He was not planning to marry her or divorce wife. But he was having affair with her. He knew that no one would understand it. He was planning to tell Kanti Bai that he was going out on business. She didn't need to know about it. But Prachi saw them. She didn't ran to Mom like Tushar with every information. In fact he didn't understood it until she didn't tell him. He enjoyed his stay in hotel for a week and came back. He remembered to buy gifts for all. He started giving them. Prachi came near him and sat in his lap and said peacefully. " I know you like that Auntie more than Mom but I like that frock more than this chocolate." Then she gave sweet smile and vanished. Then she came back with picture of frock. There was sweet smile on her face. He could not consider it blackmail. He was doing it willingly. After that he started sharing his every secret with his daughter until her death. Prachi died due to sickness. He never knew how did her sickness turned in such worst way. She seemed like healthy child until that sickness didn't touch her. Her sickness getting risky every day. He took her to many doctors but nothing seemed to work. Kanti Bai was supportive but she was not sad like him. In fact many times he felt that she was not that much concerned about Prachi. Whenever he tried to tell this to others they didn't believe him. They began to lecture him that he must not put whole blame on wife. But he hated her. He was sure that she killed Prachi. He was so frustrated when he heard loud voice. He came out of room and screamed " What happened?" Kanti Bai " Nothing. I was cooking and one pot fall." " How stupid you are?!! Now you have destroyed one nice pot and where is your dear daughter-in-law?!! I feel she over slept again!!" " She is not the one who overslept every day." Harish Dada was very angry. His eyes became red. He was getting ready to threw few things. He needed to scare Kanti Bai more. She was getting brave day by day. She must stay under his thumb. It was precious. He screamed " What did you think of yourself?" Then he started cursing her in loud voice. Kanti Bai was so upset. She was not scared for herself. She had tolerated her husband enough to ignore his attitude but she knew that it would scare Nina. Nina was simple girl. She didn't seem to have ever tolerated loud voice in her house these curses would be too much for her. Kanti Bai " What did you want?" " I want that room back?!!" " Please stop it." Harish Dada screamed on her " I will not." He began to throw away things. Nina slowly opened door of room. But she shivered when she sensed what was going on. She was seeing there when one pot came towards her. She just managed narrow escape. Nina looked at Harish Dada with anger and shock. He screamed on her " Didn't your parents taught you manners? How could you look at your elder this way?!!" She shivered. " I am sorry." She said in slow voice. Harish Dada gave cruel smile and looked at Kanti Bai with taunting look. Nina went back in her room. She started crying. She began to regret her decision to marry in this house. Her husband was nice. Her mother-in-law was just like God's gift but her father-in-law was literally monster. She needed to lock herself in room when he threw fit of anger. She shivered.
Nina was so upset. When they did enquiries, every one said Tushar was nice man. Her mother-in-law was nice. It was good family but no one mentioned her evil father-in-law. She was so upset. But outside that door Harish Dada was so happy. " She will not stay here for long time. Just watch me how did I will get rid of her. I am boss of this house. No one can stay in this house against my wishes." He screamed loudly on Kantibai and went in room. She was so confused. She didn't understand how did she supposed to act. On that point she heard another soul in herself. She shivered. She never told anyone about it. It was top secret. She never told it to anyone. When she was small her grandmother died due to heart attack. It was sudden. She was old woman but no one could have guessed that she could die suddenly but she did it . After it one day she started to hear her grandmother's voice. She kept ignoring it. One day she told her Mom about it. Her Mom shivered. Mom " Your grandmother always wanted to stay with you so she is helping you. Maybe we should go to someone who know about it and stop it. There must be some exorcist who could do it for us?!!" " No..no Mom I don't want to hurt grandmother's soul." " But you can't keep it inside you?!!" " Mom I can." Her Mom was shocked. Then her Mom tried to meet some priest to help her but she objected. There was big argument when she came with priest. She sensed her grandmother on that point. That voice said " If you feel so much haterd towards me than you want to remove me then I will go." She told grandmother in mind. " No..no I want peace for you." Then she heard her sweet laugh. She was sure that this soul was her soul. Her grandmother said " Fine I will go but always remember I will come when I sense your need." She vanished. She told it to Mom. But on that time Dad heard little bit. Then he took her to some Doctor. She chatted with him for few days. But when she told him her grandmother was no longer with her. He smiled happily. She also felt happy. Then her grandmother never came back. But her father kept questioning her. She kept telling him that she would not come back. Her grandmother never came back until she was abused by Harish Dada. Her husband always called Dada. She thought that it was due to affection but it was due to fear. Soon she sensed that her husband had one bad habit. He used people's mistake as a way to fulfill his wishes. It was not by affection. He was expert in coercion. She was so tense when she started hearing his conversation. On that point for first time she heard her grandmother's voice again. She shivered with fear. She knew that she couldn't stop her. Her grandmother was always dominating until unstoppable. She never let any other family member to dominate her. She never understood one word adjustment. She didn't hurt Harish Dada. She said that he was her husband according to her old beliefs. Her husband was important for her future. But then Prachi came. She started following her father's footsteps. At beginning Kanti Bai didn't notice it. Prachi seemed so innocent. She was little girl of ten years. On that point she noticed. Prachi sat on her father's lap. Prachi " Will you bring that red frock?" Kanti Bai was shocked. It was so strange. She knew very well that Prachi hated red colour. She never wanted anything in red. It was strange. Kanti Bai didn't say anything. But she understood one thing that Prachi knew something which she didn't otherwise Harish Dada would never give her money. Then Prachi took money. Kanti Bai wanted to confront her but on that moment her grandmother stopped her. She knew that she was not existed but she was there in her mind. Grandmother " Don't warn her." She wanted to answer her. But she couldn't. She just stopped there. She obeyed her grandmother same way as she obeyed when she was alive. She was so confused. She understood her grandmother had some plan which she wanted to execute. She sensed one thing that she needed to talk to her Mom and she needed to go to her priest. She had to stop this ghost. Then she went back in kitchen. Prachi kept talking sweetly like angel. Kanti Bai kept acting as normal as possible. Prachi didn't sense any difference but when Tushar came in kitchen, he immediately asked " What happened Mom? You are looking pale!!" She shivered. She wanted to hold him and cry. She wanted to tell him everything but she stopped. He was her precious jewel. She needed to protect him from everything. She gave sad smile and said " Nothing. Every thing is fine. I just caught some cold. " He looked concerned and said " Mom take care." Prachi nodded but she didn't care. On that day Prachi bought parcel with her so she managed to buy that red frock. Now Kanti Bai was so upset. She wanted to argue but her grandmother didn't let her. She decided to call her Mom when Prachi was in school. She knew her grandmother must had followed Prachi there. She told everything to Mom. They immediately went to priest who did many rituals. Kanti Bai was sure that now her grandmother wouldn't return like she didn't return last time. But when Prachi entered in house, her grandmother returned again. She sensed it. Kanti Bai shivered as she remembered those days.
Kanti Bai didn't want to remember it but she couldn't forget it. Her grandmother said " Your daughter is going wrong way. She is wearing that dress for someone. We can catch her red handed!!" She didn't want to do it but she couldn't stop herself. She kept taking deep breath. Kanti Bai was shocked when she went after Prachi. She wanted to stop herself but she couldn't. But her shock was worst when she saw that Prachi was talking with some boy. It was not normal chatting. Prachi was looking at that boy in special way. It was something totally wrong. Prachi started to tell him that she got red frock. Soon Kanti Bai sensed that she might change it before him. She decided to call her. But then she sensed that it was not first time. She shivered with ashame. Her daughter was doing totally wrong things at such small age. She lost control of her body. She began to get weak before her grandmother. Then her grandmother started her plan. She started to force her to buy different things to make her sick. She didn't understand from where she got them. She was so upset with her daughter that she no longer cared. She didn't wanted to kill her. But still she no longer desired to protect her. Then slowly Prachi started to get sick. Kanti Bai didn't want it but grandmother wanted just Prachi's death and Kanti Bai didn't stop her. Finally Prachi died and on that day grandmother quit her body. She started taking care of Tushar like he was her only child. She tried her best to forget Prachi. After all it was not her mistake her grandmother did it. But today once again she heard her voice. Grandmother " Until now I never touched Harish Dada because he is your husband but now he is acting in wrong way. I don't like the way he looked at her." She was confused. Then she understood that her grandmother felt that Harish Dada was looking at Nina in wrong way. She felt so much anger built inside. Harish Dada was sleeping peacefully in room. He had created this entire drama with one motive. He wanted Tushar to live in separate house. He wanted that couple out of his house. He didn't like his son Tushar and his wife was burden in his eyes. But somewhere in his soul he decided that he needed to make this clear to his daughter-in-law too. Nina was so scared. She was sitting on bed when Harish Dada came to her bedroom door. He threw paper of one flat before her. " I want to see you and your husband out of this house." Nina shivered. " Take this paper and go away." Nina nodded. Kanti Bai was keeping watch on Harish Dada and she took this in wrong way. She went in kitchen and started searching for herb. She gave it to Prachi in small dose. She started to do it again. Nina was confused and scared. She decided that she must talk with Kanti Bai before calling Tushar. When Nina went in kitchen, she noticed those herbs. She shivered. She assumed that Kanti Bai hated them so much that she was trying to posion them. Nina knew that Tushar didn't believe her so she did entire video. Then she ran back in room. She told Tushar every thing on phone. Then she first took promise from him that he would not get angry. Tushar " Just tell me!! What's wrong?" " Your Mom is putting some strange herbs in food like hysteric woman." " What? Are you out of mind?!!" " No need to trust me. I send video." She sent it immediately. Tushar watched it. He could clearly see it was some herb. Kanti Bai put it in food on large scale. He didn't want to eat it. She remembered that she used to put something like that for Prachi too. It was his Mom's remedy to cure patient. Tushar called back. " We will not eat at home today. It's Mom's remedy to cure." " Did she gave it to you?!!" " No she use to give it to my sick sister who is now.."" Dead?!!" Nina completed it for him. Nina " I hope you understood my point." Tushar " I don't understand." Nina " Come home and talk to your Mom." Tushar agreed. He ran to Boss and requested. Boss was clearly upset. " You can't keep demanding vacation like that." " I know Sir. Just today my Mom is sick." " Okay just for one day." " Yes..yes thank you so much." Then he literally ran out of his office. When he reached home, Nina immediately opened door. Then Tushar saw Kanti Bai in kitchen. She was cooking in normal way now. But he still sensed something was different. Tushar came near her and said " Mom!!" " Yes baby!! I am your Grandma. I am cooking your favourite cookies. Chocolate chips for my little bunny." And she kissed him like his grandmother did. Tushar shivered. Tushar " What's wrong with you Mom?" " I am not your Mom. I am your Grandma. Shh.. don't talk loudly your father will wake up. This is top secret between us." Tushar was so shocked. He didn't understand what he supposed to say. Then she turned to Nina. "Don't you desire my blessings?" Nina nodded and came ahead. She slapped Tushar on back and said " Join her." Then she smiled and said " I will cook today. Go out and enjoy yourself. In our time we were just caged in house. I don't want it for you. Go..go" They nodded and vanished.
As soon as they came out of kitchen, Tushar told Nina " We must go to Doctor. I never saw her like that." Nina " What about your Dad?" He was so angry. He didn't want to help Harish Dada at all. But he knew that if he wanted to avoid murder from his mother's hand. He needed to do it. Tushar "Let's first call Doctor." He went out of house and came in corner. He called Doctor and told all. During his call suddenly Kanti Bai came from behind and asked angrily " Whom you are calling now? I told you that you must go out!!" Nina smiled and said " Mom.. I mean Grandma he is calling Taxi!!" " Taxi? Are you planning to go out of town?" Nina was confused. Nina " We were but if you object then.." " No..no go enjoy yourself life." Nina took breath of relief. Doctor must heard it. Doctor " Be careful don't make her angry." Tushar nodded without sensing Doctor couldn't see him. He shivered with fear. Tushar smiled and said " Can I cancel booking?" " No..no go. Today I am cooking special lunch for your father. He is missing Prachi so much." Tushar nodded. Then they went out. Nina came near Tushar and started to scream on him. " Call Doctor immediately!!" " What happened?" " She is planning to kill your Dad same way in which she killed your sister. " Tushar called Doctor once again and told him suspicion. Doctor " Don't worry I have contacted psychiatrist. He will come with ambulance." " But do you feel my Mom will land in jail?" " She is confessing in her madness and there is not existence of proof but if she kill now then she couldn't escape law. Go and stop her." Tushar agreed and went inside. Harish Dada was waiting for lunch. But when Tushar came in Kanti Bai shivered. Tushar sensed that he was not ready to posion them. He began to get confident. Tushar smiled and said " We can't able to get Taxi so we will take lunch." Kanti Bai started to look angry. " No need to wait. Go and take any Taxi." Nina joined it too. " But we have booked." Kanti Bai " Just go. I will pay." Tushar went to food. " Wow this looks so tasty." His move turned out to be biggest mistake. She started to scream " Don't touch that food." Harish Dada was shocked. He screamed " What's wrong with you? Let him eat!!" Kanti Bai screamed " No..no you are the one who supposed to eat it. You are the one who tried molest daughter-in-law!!" Harish Dada was shocked. He started cursing Nina " How could you say such things about me?!!" Nina " I said nothing." Kanti Bai " So you are enjoying his touches too?!" Nina screamed " Stop this mad woman!!" That was Nina's worst mistake. Kanti Bai took food and ran towards her. She started to try to force it under her throat. Harish Dada and Tushar tries to stop her but she seemed to possess supernatural power. She even managed to throw them out of her way. Tushar was so confused then Harish Dada came running towards him with plate of food started pretending that he would force it under his throat. Harish Dada " If you kill her then I will kill him." She screamed " Don't do it . You have lots of girlfriends but I have just one son." " Then Go away.. go away." Then Kanti Bai shivered and screamed in pain. She finally fall on floor. Nina slowly went away and started running towards door. But Tushar stopped her. " Take this money and go to your parents. I will call you back when she will be admitted in hospital." She nodded and vanished. Harish Dada "We must tie her. She is possessed." " Possessed?!! My foot !! This happened because of your attitude and what you taught to Prachi." Harish Dada was about to argue when she woke up and started asking questions regarding what happened. But they didn't answer. They just kept quiet. Then ambulance came. As soon as Doctors started taking her away she began to scream again in horrible way. They didn't went inside ambulance instead of that they followed it. When they came, Doctor already managed to admit her. Psychiatrist came out to talk with them. " Kanti Harish is suffering due to disassociative personality disorder. It happened immediately after her grandmother's death it happened because her father was abusive and man of bad character while her grandmother had control over him so she tried to bring her back this way. I don't know how much it helped but when Harish started behaving same way in fact worst than him. That disorder came back in horrible way. In fact she even managed to kill her daughter in it. Of course that is our guess we don't have any proof. But finally it became worst when Harish started rejecting their son for dead daughter. Then she began to create horrible stories." " But will you able to cure her?" Tushar asked. Harish Dada " No..no keep her. Do you want to keep that murderer in your house?" Tushar was confused. Psychiatrist " It is not your choice. When we think she is fine we will send her back." Tushar nodded. They went out. Harish Dada " I don't want her to stay with me!!" " Fine. She will stay in third flat. I want you to keep it on her name & we both will keep some amount for her in bank." " No I will go in other flat. You should pay for her daily expenses." Tushar thought and nodded. Tushar " Just gave that flat and you will never see our faces again." Harish Dada smiled. "Will you give it in writing?" " Yes." Then Harish Dada and Tushar went away in separate way. None of them was interested in seeing other person's face. Tushar just called Nina to check that he had other flats documents so he got two flats he needed from father.
The End
