His Doll

Chapter 61- Payment of the sins

Abhinav's p.o.v

" papa, gib mi mol kandi ( Papa, give me more candy)," Daksh said licking a candy bar.

Dipti said jumping on my lap," Papa, I want a barbie doll".

" I want a Dora doll," Drishti said waving her baby hands in the air.

" Papa, give me a piggyback ride," Devansh said pinching the breeze of his nose.

My children were telling me all this when I recorded this moment on my phone. Whenever I miss them,

I watch this video and automatically my heart filled with too much joy.

Devika doesn't give me any permission to meet my children. I always see them when they come to the

garden for playing.

Even she lock the children in the house when she goes to work. Though she leaves the children alone

only for one and a half hour, I always keep my watch on the house from outside. It's been months since

I am seeing all this.

Sometimes I feel like to break the door and hug my children tightly. But, I can't. I am hoping that one

day Devika will forgive me and permit me to meet my children.

Right now, I am sitting on the terrace of my house and doing some work on the laptop. Devika's house

is locked because a few moments ago I saw her leaving the house. I wonder what my little kids are

doing. I might have talked with them through the window but my angry wife has also sealed the

window.

I am lost in my work when I saw smoke is coming out from Devika's house. And the amount of smoke

is quite huge. It didn't take much time for me to understand that something is wrong.

Immediately I ran towards Devika's house and seeing the scene in front of me I become shocked and

adrenaline started to flow through my whole body rapidly.

Devika's whole house is burning and I am damn sure the kids are inside. I can't even imagine what my

children are facing. My heart is beating so fast as it will come out from my ribcage anytime.

This incident is reminding me of that fire accident that I and my siblings faced in our childhood. That

incident still haunts me like a nightmare.

I didn't waste any time. I called the fire service and they said that it will take 20 minutes for them to

reach our locality. They informed me that the road between our locality and the fire service office is

under construction that's why they have to take another route to come to our locality. I groaned in

frustration and told them to come as soon as possible.

20 minutes!! It's too much. I just can't wait for them. I have to do something.

I am now standing in front of the main door and I touched the main door which is made of complete iron

and it's locked. I don't have the key also. The door is too much hot and I have already burnt my fingers

by touching it.

Without thinking further, I started searching for any way to enter the house. The whole house will turn

into ashes very soon.

After a few moments, I found a broken window and I jumped over it. I entered the house and the inside

of the whole house is destroyed. The smoke and temperature are too much inside the house. I am just

praying to God to keep my children safe.

I found my kids are lying unconscious in front of the main door. I ran towards them and seeing them I

started crying. My little children lost their sense because of smoke and exhaustion. I am glad that they

are not burnt anywhere.

I immediately picked them up in my embrace to leave the house as soon as possible. But the house is

completely in fire and I am finding flames everywhere. The window which I use to enter is also

destroyed and there is also fire.

I am not finding any way to leave this house. I am now standing in front of that metallic main door.

Suddenly, I felt a huge impact on my back and I realized that a huge damn brick has fallen on my back.

I fell on the floor and now I can't even move. My hands and feet are already burnt.

I am shielding my children using my hands and body. My kids are under me. I am losing my all energy

and maybe I will not be able to hold back that wall anymore and collapsed over my children.

On the other hand, The smoke is too much that I am also feeling dizzy and my vision is getting

clouded. I am chanting God's name to protect my children.

I am on the verge of fainting and almost going to fall on my children when the metallic door gets open

and a crying panicked Devika entered the house. She screamed seeing my condition. She ran towards

me and tried to remove the brick but failed as its too heavy.

Before she could say something I said hurriedly," Don't waste any time. Just take the kids away. They

have fainted."

She picked up the kids in her embrace and said crying," What about you, Abhi? I can't leave you here."

I am hissing in pain and said touching her cheeks," Just go from here, Devika. The house will collapse

very soon. Just get out from here with the children. You have to save them."

" I can't lea........She is going to say something when I yelled," Just go, devika. Save the Children. I will

be fine. Just go. Don't waste any time. Take the kids to the hospital."

She immediately left the house with the children. Before leaving she gave me a pleading look like she

is telling me to not give up.

I took a relief of breath thinking that my children are fine. I fell on my chest and I felt like I have broken

every rib of my chest.

Now, I don't have to worry anymore. Thank you so much, God, for sending Devika at the right time.

I couldn't tolerate the smoke and temperature anymore and closed my eyes. I am now seeing only

darkness. I am going to meet my mother very soon.

Before losing myself into complete darkness I felt some water droplets on my cheeks and heard some

loud noises.

Before the Fire incident

Devika's p.o.v

I am giving lectures in the class but I don't know why I am feeling too much restless. I am feeling like

something bad is going to happen. My heart is beating too fast.

I don't know why I am feeling that my children are in danger. I have never felt like that. My kids face are

coming in front of me and I am feeling like they are calling me.

I am checking the CCTV footage on my laptop again and again and found that my children are

completely fine and watching TV.

Yes, I have set CCTV camera in my whole house so that I can watch over my children whenever I am

in my work.

I have started my job a few months ago and specifically requested the authority that every day I will

take only one class because I have to be in the house with my children. The authority was very

generous and agreed with me. Every day I left my children for only one and a half hour and that one

and a half hour felt like an eternity to me.

Every day I don't waste any time after taking the class. I immediately leave college so that I can be with

my children as soon as possible.

It's just half an hour I have left my children and now I am taking the class. I am giving the lectures when

I noticed that the CCTV camera got disconnected. I thought that there might be some signal problem.

It's been months since I am using these signal and CCTV cameras. Something never happens like

that.

I am now sure that something is wrong. My sixth sense is telling me that my kids are in danger. Without

wasting any time and without completing the class I just left college. The college is not that far from my

house. It will just take 10 minutes to reach my house if I take a taxi. So, I took a taxi and started my

journey to my house.

I haven't reached my house yet when I saw a crowd in front of my house. This time my heart is beating

too much fast.

No sooner had I reached my house than I become shocked and automatically tears started flowing

from my eyes. My whole house is burning and some of my neighbours are throwing water to control the

fire.

I screamed," My children!! They are inside. I need to save them."

I tried to run towards my house when some neighbours stopped me. They said," Are you mad? If you

go inside you will die for sure."

I am struggling to free myself from their hold but they are not leaving me. After struggling for like an

eternity I freed myself.

" Leave me. My children are inside. I have to save them," Saying that I ran towards the main door and

opened it immediately.

I have burnt my fingers when I was opening the door. After entering the house I become more shocked.

I found Abhinav who is leaning on the floor and under him my kids are lying unconscious. A brick is

also over him.

I tried to remove the brick but I couldn't as it's too heavy. He told me to leave the house taking the kids.

I wasn't ready to leave him. How can I just leave a person to die in this house!! I am not understanding

what I should do! I need to save my kids.

He told me to leave the house as soon as possible and without wasting any time I left the house. I

didn't have any choice.

I came outside and found firefighters and an ambulance. I told the firefighters crying," please, save my

kids' father. He is inside."

One of the firefighters assured me," Everything will be fine."

" Please, save Abhi. His condition is very bad. Help him," I said crying.

Author's p.o.v

Devika is crying and Ruhi is holding her. She is in the hospital and now in front of the cabin where the

doctor is checking her kids. Her heart is bleeding for her little children.

" I am an irresponsible mother. I shouldn't have left my kids alone," Devika said crying and rested her Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

head on Ruhi's shoulder.

Ruhi said stroking Devika's hair," It was an accident, Di. Don't blame yourself. Everything will be fine.

Our little bunnies will be fine. Don't worry."

" I will not continue my job. I will not leave my children even for a second. I will protect them always,"

Devika said nodding her head hysterically.

She is also injured slightly because of the fire incident. Ruhi told her to treat her wound but she

refused. First, she wants to make sure that her children are fine.

Ruhi is trying her best to console Devika but Devika's crying isn't stopping. Devika is also devastated

about Abhinav. He was taken to the hospital and he is now in the emergency unit.

" It's all my fault. Because of me, everyone is in danger. Because of my stupidity, my children are now

lying on the hospital bed," Devika said slapping her cheeks like a madwoman.

Then she said pulling her hairs," I am a bad mother. I am bad. How can I be so irresponsible!!

Ruhi said holding Devika's hand tightly," Come into your senses Di. Everything will be fine. Keep your

trust in God."

Ruhi is consoling Devika when the doctor came out of the cabin. Seeing him Devika rushed towards

him and asked panicking," How are my kids? Are they fine? Are they hurt somewhere?"

" Relax. Calm down. The kids are fine. Because of the smoke, they have fainted. I have given them

some medicine. They will gain their consciousness very soon," the doctor explained.

Then the doctor said," You have taken them at the right time. If the children were exposed to the smoke

more times then they might have problems in their lungs."

Devika took a relief of breath and asked the doctor," Can I meet them?"

" I will suggest you wait until they wake up. They need proper rest," The doctor said with his

professional voice.

Devika thanked the doctor and the doctor excused himself.

Devika is now only thinking about Abhinav. She never wanted Abhinav to get hurt. She can not even

imagine what would have happened if Abhinav didn't go there to save the kids and she didn't go there

at the right time. She is praying for his well being.

Devika found GOD's idol in the hospital and joined her hands in front of God. She said crying," Please,

God. Save him. I may have never loved him but he is my kids' father. Please, save him. I never wanted

something to happen like that."

She is praying in front of God when a nurse informed her that her children have woken up and she can

meet them.

A smile formed on Devika's lips and she ran towards her children's cabin.

No sooner had she entered the cabin, her children cried out in unison," Mamma..."

She ran towards them and hugged them tightly. She is crying and her children are also crying.

She kissed their face and said crying," Sorry, my little bunnies. Mamma will never leave you alone."

" Mamma, we were so afraid," the children said and hid themselves in their mother's chest.

Devika said patting their head," It's ok babies. You are in mamma's chest now. Mamma will always

protect you."

Devika's kids are so afraid that they aren't letting go of their mother. They are thinking that if they let go

of their mother then they can get hurt.

Devika fed her children some food which Neel bought for them and laid down her kids on the bed to

help them in sleeping. She ordered Ruhi and Neel to be here with the kids. She ordered her siblings to

not leave her kids even for a second.

Devika is now going to the emergency unit where Abhinav is kept.

Devika walked towards the emergency burn unit and found Ruhani ma and Abhinav's siblings. They all

are crying.

Arnav is totally devastated seeing his brother's miserable condition. Doctors are still checking on

Abhinav. Abhinav's family doesn't know what's happening with Abhinav inside the cabin.

Seeing Devika, Ruhani ma hugged her tightly and cried out. Ruhani ma said with her broken voice," My

son... Devika....my son is hurt......."

Devika isn't finding any words to console her. She can feel what Ruhani ma is feeling. After all, she is

also a mother of 4 children.

Arushi and Avantika are crying holding each other's hand and seeing Devika they didn't give any

reactions. But, Arnav is seeing Devika with a cold expression.

After some time, two doctors came out. Seeing the doctors, Arnav asked them worriedly," How is my

brother? Is he fine?

" His condition is critical. 75% of his body is burnt. 3 of his ribs are broken. Due to extreme smoke, his

lungs are also damaged," One of the doctors said and Arnav became more shocked and tears started

flowing from his eyes non-stop.

Then, another doctor said," Your brother's right leg is pretty damaged and there is a possibility that in

future he might not be able to use that leg for walking. His spinal cord is also pretty damaged like

something heavy had fallen on his back with full force."

The more doctor is saying and the more Abhinav's family members are getting broken. Devika can't

believe her ears. She is feeling genuine hurt for Abhinav inside her heart.

" Will my brother be fine? Please, doctor. Tell me," Arnav asked wiping his tears but the stupid tears are

not stopping.

" He might get fall into a long time coma or maybe.......," The doctor stopped and Abhinav's whole

family looked at the doctor with disbelief.

" or maybe?," Avantika asked panicking.

" Maybe he will not be able to make it. I hope you are understanding," One of the doctors said and

Avantika fell on the floor. Arushi held her sister in her embrace.

Aranav is standing like a statue and Ruhani ma is crying miserably holding Devika's hand.

Devika is also hurt and can not believe what the doctors saying.

" We are doing our best and the rest only God knows. I will suggest you pray to God for Mr Agnihotri's

well-being," one of the doctors said and they excused themselves.

No sooner had the doctor left the area than Arnav said to Devika with too much hate," Par gayi thandat

kalize pe ? ( are you happy now?)

Devika looked at him with her crying eyes and her face is holding confused expression.

On the other hand, Arnav's eyes are showing red and his facial expression is hard.

He said angrily," Lou, Bhagwan ne tumhari baad duayae sunli meri bhai ke liye( See, God has

accepted your cursing for my brother.)

" Now, you can live peacefully without my brother. Finally, he is in death bed which your mother always

wanted and I am sure you always wanted the same for him," Arnav said making Devika more hurt.

Arushi said to Arnav with a heavy voice," Bhai, it was an accident. It's not Devika's fault."

" Maybe it was an accident but I am sure that your friend always wanted something like that for my

brother. She wanted to see my brother's miseries and she is now successful," Arnav said and sat on a

bench.

He is rubbing his whole face making it red. His eyes are bloodshot due to crying and anger.

Devika said to Ruhani ma crying," I never wanted something like that. Tell him Ruhani ma that I

never......."

Devika couldn't complete her sentence when Arnav yelled," Don't shed your crocodile tears here. You

should celebrate that my brother is going to die. Your whore mother wanted to see all of us dead and

being her daughter you wanted to see my brother's miserable condition. Finally, you are succeeded."

Devika is too much hurt that she isn't finding any words to say.

Arnav is going to say something again when a voice said angrily," Don't you dare to misbehave with my

sister. Your brother is paying for his sins which he committed."

Note- So, what's your opinion about the updates? Will Abhinav die? Is Devika responsible for Abhinav's

condition?

There are a few chapters left for the story. Do you all want Devika to end up with Abhinav? Don't forget
