Vihana:

I shivered with fear and unbearable pain in my heart, which I had subsided all these days trying to forget and forgive. Forget to find peace; Forgive to forget the incident. Nevertheless, nothing worked for me.

"A..a..h..a...n." That's the word came out of my mouth, which was registered long back in my subconscious mind and can never be removed ever.

"So finally we met again. I am happy to meet you after two years. Aren't you glad to meet me after such a long gap?"

I burst into tears, finding it impossible to hide them anymore. I wanted to cry harder and harder until I die. My intuition already helped me to predict the upcoming pain of my life from today. Pain which I wanted to bear and pain which I gave to him.

"So, what's up Vihana? Should I call you as Vihana or Mrs Venom or Jessica? You have created a lot of confusion."

God, please give me the death. I can't face him. I can't bear that torture. I can't imagine what's going to come into my life. No, I didn't want to stand helpless before him. I can't see into his eyes as it scares me to death.

"Come on Vihana; silence is killing me. Speak out. Your silence has the power to break a heart and kill a soul. Do you remember our last encounter where you have crushed my heart into pieces and started building your dreams on it?"

"Enough Aahan. Enough.. Don't kill me.. With your words... Kill me.. At.. Once."

"I think I learnt the art of killing a person either with words or silence from you. Pistol, RDA, poison are nothing before your silence!"

"Okay, let's leave it for some time. Shall we play a game?"

"Game?"

"Yes, you can find a mobile beside the oven. It has just 10% charging and has only two numbers. Call them and beg for forgiveness."

"What? Why should I beg for someone's forgiveness?"

"Because in a few minutes this room is going to become dark and chilled, soon reaching 0° Celsius. You will die within a few minutes. If you want to live, beg for forgiveness dialling those two contacts saved on that mobile."

"Kill me Aahan, if you can," I said in a serious tone because I want to die in his hands for my betrayal. Only he has the right to kill me or do anything to me.

"Don't play with me Jessica a.k.a. Vihana. This VENOM is more dangerous than before. Now let's start the game!"

The room went dark again and gradually became cold. I tried to get some warmth by rubbing my hands, but all my efforts went in vain. Slowly, my body too became cold. Within a few minutes, I was fallen on the ground hitting my elbow and knee to a hard concrete floor, as my feet lost its ability to stand. I heard laughter which is very loud that made me feel that I would be luckier if I am deaf. Words didn't come out from my mouth due to the decrease in the temperature of the room.

I was falling unconscious, but suddenly there was a gradual increase in the temperature of the room making me stay conscious. But then the lights started blinking vigorously causing a sensation of vertigo in me. I held my head in despair hoping to end the torture at least in the form of sudden death. The blinking of lights was paused to give me time to breathe. I know it well that this is just the tip of the iceberg and there is more to come.

I hugged my knees tightly having no hope of getting any help to escape his torture.

"How was the game, Jessica? Did you enjoy the game? After all, you love these terrible games a lot, isn't it?"

"What do you want from me Aahan? My death, am I right?"

"Not exactly, Jessica. I want your heart!"

"Heart?"

"Yes, I want your heart to be crushed into million pieces by me under my feet. I want to hear the soothing sound of your screaming, which is a great bliss in my dark life."

"I prefer death than letting you harm me."

I said still acting before Aahan as if I hate him.

"Don't worry, Jessica. Your death won't come that soon unless I let it reach you."

"I am talking about your death," I answered faking hatred though my heart knew the real emotions in me.

No, I shouldn't show up my true feelings to him.

"Stop acting, Jessica. I know about you better than you. Now let's get to the point. Why did you leave me?"

"Because I can't be a wife to a person like you who is inhumane, insane and dangerous than death."

"You said it right. I am inhumane to you, insane about you and dangerous than death for you!"

"Enough of these non-sense talks. Let me go," I replied firmly.

"Those beautiful eyes which search for me every second, those pink petals which moan my name and that milky white body which belongs to me, Where did you hide them, Jessica, my beloved wife?"

I clutched my fist as tight as possible to make my heart hard as a rock, which doesn't react to any emotions. As the clutch of my fist became tighter, my nails pierced into my flesh letting out drops of red liquid.

"Okay Jessica, I got my answer. You are free to go. Now, the entrance will open for you. There's a car in front of the gate. Get into it and driver will drop you at your home. Wish you a very happy married life, Vihana!" he said.

The entrance door opened, but my legs didn't move even a bit. My heart wanted to see the person who was the owner of that voice spoken to me until now. However, my mind reacted exactly in the opposite way forcing me to run away as soon as possible before he changes his decision.
