Today was Angelo and Alexander's birthday. Mahira woke up early. Adamsen had already made
arrangements for the day. He bought Mahira a gorgeous silky banarasi saree and gold jewelry.
Mahira let down her hair and Adamsen brushed her hair for her.
He enjoyed brushing her hair all the time so it was nothing new to Mahira, she was used to it.
Adamsen, 'So Mahi may I come with you to meet your boys. I'd like to see them and apologize
for taking their mother away from them.'
Mahira, 'of course you can. But first let's go get them gift's, it's been so long since I've gotten
them something.'
Adamsen was wearing a white shirt and some baggy pants matching Mahira's saree. They went
shopping and bought a whole truck of gifts. The plan was just to buy a few things but with
Adamsen insisting Mahira bought clothes, toys and everything a baby boy would love. Adamsen
was really good at choosing gifts.
A little later they went to her mansion. She looked at it with a smile. As she stepped into the
mansion every corner had memories. On the dinner table there were the people she loved but
they all looked gloomy. No one talked to each other, they just ate their food as if today was not a
day to celebrate. She walked in with a huge smile on her face.
Mahira, 'who died today? It's my son's birthday and you are all sulking here as if you forgot that
today it's my son's birthday. Tell me who died?'
Angelo and Alexander in unison, 'Mom…'
Mahira frowned, 'aren't you excited to see your momma. Come give mommy a hug. Come on
my angel's.'
Angelo and Alexander ran and jumped into Mahira's arms. Mahira hugged them so happily.
Elena just stood there feeling embarrassed. She was scared of facing Mahira and ashamed of
herself. Mahira looked at her.
Mahira, 'aren't you going to hug your fairy.'
Elena burst into tears and hugged Mahira, not letting go of her for a second.
Elena, 'Fairy. I thought you'd never want to see us again. I thought we had lost you fairy.' Elena hugged her so tightly scared to let her go.
Mahira, 'your fairy will always be yours alone. She'll never abandon you. Even if I am lost in
darkness I'll always come back to you sweetie.'
Angelo, 'mommy are you still angry with us? Do you still hate us?'
Mahira, 'mommy will never hate you okay. I'm sorry for hurting you in the past okay.'
Alexander, 'I missed you mommy please don't ever leave again. We're sorry.'
Mahira hugged all three of them and they soaked her saree with their tears. Kaashvi also joined
in the hug. Thane looked at Mahira and he wanted so badly to hug her and ask for forgiveness.
Adamsen, 'hey man, aren't you going to try and win back the woman you love.'
Everyone stopped and looked at Thane. He had so much regret and wanted so badly to have
Mahira in her arms. He wanted to apologize but didn't even know where to begin. He took a step
forward.
Thane, 'Mahira…'
Mahira got scared and took a few steps back. Fear was written all over her face. You could see
that she was scared. She looked down and unintentionally her body was trembling. Her teeth
were drumming as if she was feeling cold.
Thane
Ouch! That really hurt. Was she scared of me? She was scared of me. Why did I allow myself to
treat her so badly? I shouldn't have done that and I guess I'm paying for it.
Kaashvi tried diverting the topic and offered to go out with Mahira, Elena and the boys.
Adamsen stayed and looked at him.
'Since everyone's gone out, let's grab a drink at the bar.'
I just listened to him. When we got to one of his top bar's we were led to the VIP cabin. I drank
until I was unable to take it anymore.
'I actually hurt her. I fucked countless women in her presence and tortured her all because of a
misunderstanding. I was supposed to protect her but I fucked up. I don't even know how to
apologize and I'm so ashamed of myself.'
'What you did was sick. That woman is crazy in love with you. I tried my luck on her. I love her
so much but despite treating her so well she only has her eyes on you. People like her are hard
to find. They're rare and once you lose someone like her, I don't think you'll find someone who
would love you like her. If I wanted I could've forced her to stay with me but enough is enough.
She's been through so much and because I love her, I can't find it in me to make her sad. She's
a woman, Thane she's a woman and women nowadays don't take shit from us but she took all
your shit. She tolerated your shit and everything. More than her own children, you are her
biggest weakness. Your sister Elena, Mahira loves her so much. Just like a daughter and she
just, she's incredible man like she's amazing.'
'You have the chance to win her over. Why don't you do it?'
'Because of you. She loves you, that's why I can't win her over. You are the only person she
sees Thane. Unfortunately you don't realize the value of that.'
'Did you see how scared she was of me? Did you see how she moved away when I tried to talk
to her?'
I couldn't help but cry. I blame it on the alcohol. 'Honestly you don't deserve to cry. She's the one who deserves to cry because of you.
Emotional blackmail, manipulation, abuse, infidelity, you did it all Thane and she endured. Even
your presence scares her. She's scared of you, your touch because she thinks that any minute
you can hurt her
'Do you think I deserve her?'
'Of course not. You don't deserve her at all but I don't have a say in this.'
'How do you know her?'
'I dated her once, she was thirteen and I was seventeen. She was something else. I loved her
ever since then and I still love her but as I said she only sees you and no one else.'
We drank a few more shots. I knew I had a lot to work on. Knowing Mahira she was hard to
pacify but also easy to pacify. What am I even saying? I think the alcohol has gotten to my head.
May god help me get the love of my life back.
I hope I can get her back.
