~~~~~~~~~~~~THE BEGINNING OF THE OBSESSION 🔥~~~~~~~~~~~

The grand mansion stood bathed in the golden glow of countless fairy lights, each strand weaving through ornate railings and cascading down pillars like stardust. The warm hue of marigold garlands draped across every arch and window frame filled the air with a faint, earthy sweetness.

Outside, the courtyard brimmed with lanterns swaying gently in the evening breeze, casting dancing shadows on the tiled floor.

 Inside, the mansion was a vision of opulence and celebration—rich silk drapes flowed from the ceilings, flower petals blanketed the marble floors, and chandeliers sparkled like a constellation trapped indoors. The fragrance of incense and fresh blooms lingered in the air, mingling with the soft hum of music and laughter echoing through the halls.

Every person from the neighbours is present to attend the second marriage of the Eldest son in the family. Anirudh Roy Choudhary- the name itself explains the darkest and most charismatic aura vibes. His second wedding happened hurriedly, though no one witnessed it; it was just a fake marriage (they had not married in real, just decked up with fake marital signs, Anirudh wore a garland around himself, and Manorama wore a garland,mangalsutra, and sindoor too, looking like a real married couple).

The eldest person, Trilochan Roychoudhary, far away from the chaos, was just praying to the Lord Durga Maa Idol.

Trilochan Roy Choudhary/Kaka SasurJI (TRC/KSJ):-"Hey Dugga Maa, yeh kyaa hoo raha hai.Anirudh ne aapne fitoor main aakar usne sab kuch barbaad kar diya. Usne Bondita bahu ke baare mein bina soche samjhe hi sab kuch tabah kar diya hai Dugga Maa.Usne toh apne fitoori mein aakar apne aur Bondita ka Rishta Khatam kar diya hai Maa. Ab bas aapse aashaa kartha hun aap hi sab kuch tikh kar sakthe hai Durga Maa (while folding hands) Maa, aapse prarthna kartha hun ki ab aap hi kuch kar sakthi hai Maa."

Then he stood and moved out of the prayer room with the light of hope in his mind. 

Amidst the post-wedding chaos, inside the bedroom was shrouded in shadows, every corner swallowed by a suffocating darkness that seemed to press against the walls. The faintest sliver of moonlight filtered in through the cracked curtains, casting pale streaks across the wooden floor, like memories trying to slip through the cracks of her silence.

In the far corner, a girl barely sixteen sat on the cold floor, her back against the bedpost, knees drawn tightly to her chest. Her trembling fingers clutched at the fabric of her nightdress, and tears spilled freely down her cheeks, silent yet stormy. Each sob racked her small frame, as though her heart was trying to scream but her voice had forgotten how.

The room, once filled with laughter and soft lullabies, now echoed with the heavy sound of sorrow. Stuffed toys lay abandoned near the closet, their button eyes glinting faintly in the gloom, helpless witnesses to her unraveling.

The world outside was in full preparation for Anirudh and Manorama's post-wedding rituals. But within these walls, time stood still—frozen in the ache of a moment she couldn't escape.

Bondita Anirudh Roy Choudhary/Bondita was crying tirelessly.

Bondita:-"Pati Babu ne kyun kiya aisa mere saath , who toh mere hamesha saath the.Mere har samasya ka samadhaan unke paas hi hota hai, woh mere alawa kisiko dekthe bhi nahi the phir unhone Manorama ji see shaadi kyun kiya ,Kyun unhone mere saath aisa kiya .Woh tho khudh kehthe the ki Agar ek aadami ke doo biwiyaan hai toh woh aadami kehlaane ke layak hi nahi hai an hi Pati kehlaane ke liye layak nahi hai."

Bondita:-"Nahi aaj unhe mere sawaalon ka jawaab dena hi hogaa chahe kuch bhi hoo jaayein.Lekin abhi kaise puchu , neeche toh sab mehmaan hai , aur pati babu aur unki dusri patni bhi hongi shaadi ke rasmein kar ne ke liye . Main abhi neeche nahi jaaunghi,jab sab kuch khatam hoojayegha tab hi jaunghi.Haan yahi sahi rehgha ."

She folded her knees and her sobs echoed throughout the dark room.

Meanwhile, in the study room, exuded a quiet, intellectual gravity—its walls swallowed in bookshelves stacked with dense legal tomes and handwritten notes yellowed with age. A soft glow from the corner lamp struggled against the shadows, casting long lines over the ornate rug and creaking wooden floor.

Slumped on the leather couch, the man sat still, his posture that of someone whose battles had been waged not on battlefields, but in courtrooms and the silence of his thoughts. He wore a simple white kurta, its collar slightly creased, sleeves rolled back just enough to reveal forearms burdened with exhaustion. The fabric, once pristine, now bore faint impressions of the day—creases, a single ink stain, and the weight of something left unsaid.

Inside, the room pulsed with his quiet sorrow—a man wrapped not just in cotton, but in questions, regrets, and memories far heavier than the book-laden shelves around him.

Anirudh Roy Choudhary/Anirudh: "Maine jo bhi kiya hai woh sab Bondita ke bhalaai ke liye kiya hai. Maine Manorama se asli shaadi nahi kiya hai, humne bas dikhava kiya hai taaki Bondita Patni Hone ka faraz bhool jaaye aur apni lakshya main dhyaan de aur Bondita is sab ko chodhkar Dalhousie chali jaaye Apne ujwal bhavishyoon ke liye. Bondita, Meri Shona, please mujhe maaf kar, deena Baby. Main jo bhi kar raha hun sirf tumhari bhalai ke liye."

Anirudh's Inner Self appears in front of him. 

Anirudh(his inner self): "Anirudh, please aisa mat karoo, mujhe mere shona se dur mat karro.Tum yeh sab karke humare rishtha kho khatam kar rahe ho. Please meri baat ko samjho, Band karo yeh sab ."

Anirudh:-"Tum bhi jaante ho aur main bhi ki iske alawa aur koi rasta nahi hai. Bondita apni padhaayi bhul kar Shringaar,asli patni hone ka faraz nibha rahi hai,woh meri baatein samajh hi nahi rahi hai,woh samajh ki baatein aur kaka ki baatein sunkar sab kuch kar rahi hai."

Anirudh's Inner self:-"Tikh hai Anirudh, Maan ke chalo ki Bondita ne sab kuch chodhkar Dalhousie chali jaayeghi.Toh kyaa tum khush rahoghe uske bina,uske avaaz ke bina,uske pyaari si muskaan ke bina,uski chanchal se shararat ka , rehloghe tum uske bina Anirudh,Uska mukh dekhe bina rehloghe tum Anirudh."

Anirudh gets silenced, realizing he has to leave his shona, his lifeline, his Bondita. He trembles, and his whole self shakes from thinking he has to be away from his Bondita.

Anirudh: "Woh hum baad mein sooch lenghe, main abhi bahar jaata hun." Ignoring his inner self, he moves out of the room.

Anirudh's inner self ( who is sitting on the couch, smirks devilishly):-"Ufff Barrister Babu, tum bas dikhava karthe hoo ki tumhe farak nahi padtha, but mujhe pata hai ki tumhe kitna takleef hota hai Meri Shona se dhoor rehne ke liye, but ab aur nahi, ab joh chal raha hai who toh hogaya, but ab aage ka sab kuch mein decide krungha.Bahut hogaya Barrister Anirudh kaa,Ab meri baari.Bahut baar usne meri shona ko humesha door hi rakha hai , mujhe uske paas jaane hi nahi detha hai yeh ladka.Usse touch bhi nahi karne deta, (picks up a photo of his Bondita and speaks ), Meri Bondita Baby, My Shona, YOU ARE MINE, JUST MINE BABY GIRL, JUST MINE, Tumhari pyaari si haasi sirf mere liye,tumhari maasoom si sharaarat sirf mere liye. Babygirl mujhe maaf kardo Iss Ghaadhe Barrister Anirudh ne joh kiya soo kiya But abh aur nahi.Tumhe pata nahi kitna sukoon milta hai jab tum mera naam ka sindhoor pehenti hoon,M ere naam ka Mangalsutra pehnti hoo,Light weight saree pehnti hoo, uffffff baby girl kya dikthi hoon tum Shona, Bas Man kartha hai abhi tumhe jhor se apne aur kheench lun aur mere baahon mein rakh lun Hamehsa Ke liye. Aur jab tum mere naam ka sindhoor,mangalsutra pehenkar bahar jaati hun vidyalaya main toh mujhe bahut garv hota hai kyunki saari duniya ko pata hota hai ki tum sirf meri hoo , sirf ANIRUDH ROY CHOUDHARY  ki.Shona tum chinta mat karo, main bas tumhaara hi hon sirf tumhara.Ab johh hogaa sirf mere kehne pe hoga 

Saying this, Anirudh's Inner self disappears.

Here, outside the room. Anirudh and Manorama are completing the post-wedding Rituals(although Anirudh doesn't want to do it, but for the sake of the so-called samaajh, he had to do it). The post-wedding rituals are completed.

I DON'T WANT TO WRITE THE POST WEDDING RITUAL SCENE, AND ALSO I DON'T WANT TO SADDEN OUR DEAR BONDITA, SO SHE IS AWAY FROM THESE THINGS.
