Not a husband Akito, a person shrouded in mystery
(Mona POV)Akito, my husband, is telling us his past experiences. How he was and how his fate was a joke. He told us all of his misfortunes and it sounded like self-mockery.It is true that his life was not easy. His parents didn’t love him. He had to fend for himself and then he was sold to the government to be a Guinea pig. I can’t say I sympathize with him or feel his pain but his experiences are not normal. How can one man suffer this much?After his survival from that experiment, he started working only to find himself knee deep is debt. His debt became the reason for our marriage. My father was the lender and his family, unbeknownst to him, was the debtor. After our kind of one sidedly forced marriage, he left. My mother drove him away like she was afraid of him. It was all a mystery until he started to reveal the truth.His experiences only get worse. He went to Egypt in a cargo container. He survived there by eating garbage. He was finally settling down when he was targeted
Not a husband My sins, my lies
(Akito POV)I do not consider myself as a good person. I have done many wrong things. I have lied, I have cheated people, I have killed people, stolen, swindled and the list goes on. Even now, I am lying. No, my past story is true. There is nothing false about it. I am not Akito, that is also true. I am a survivor of the now scrapped project, code named: Serus. I was telling everyone my past experiences. But suddenly Margaret called me. She is the one who tortured me the most while I was in Egypt. But I don’t hate. Rather, I sympathized with her. I offered to kill her but she didn’t die.She was also a modified human, modified to be the same as me. Due to the strenuous modifications, her psyche took the hit and she became mentally unstable.During her unstable days, she did many things which got the ire of many people. I tried to kill her using poison but her immunity was improved so it became harder to kill her using toxins.Monga and I were originally there when I gave her poison.
Not a husband My mistakes
(Masato POV)Damn that Akito or Serus. I can’t call him Akito anymore as he has revealed everything about him. It was my mistake to begin with. I should have killed him a long time ago. If I had done that, a lot of people would have been spared.Serus really killed a lot of people. And he will continue to kill. I don’t know what he is planning on doing. He made his exit like he had planned it beforehand.That Indian girl is cooperating with him. I didn’t like that girl from the beginning. And now, Serus has finally strayed away. The smoke canisters were full of sleeping gas. But it had little effect on me. However, I couldn’t make any sudden movements. Increase in heartbeat would cause me to fall asleep.I had to stay still until the smoke cleared. Another person is sitting up. She is Kanehaya’s daughter, Shizuka. That man is as cautious as ever. He even drilled his daughter with special training.She is looking at me but isn’t moving. Her breathing is a bit off so she needs more pra
Not a husband What should I do?
I have only arrived in India. Upon my arrival, I found myself in immediate danger. Ratri and I disembarked from our plane and went through the airport.The immigration and stuff, just know we didn’t come here through proper means. However, I was surrounded once I got out. Ratri was taken hostage. By none other than her mother.The people surrounding are people whom I know. I have met most of them before. We are in Benares. This place is both holy and unholy. I don’t mean to desecrate the image people have but it goes both ways.I got entangled with them 3 years ago. I speak an entire year, in this city, being chased by goons.Anyway, Ratri is someone who can’t go against her mother. She did say that her mother went home while we were in Japan.So she has been waiting for me, I guess! “Mother, it has been a while since I last saw you.” I can speak Hindi decently as well. I spoke in Hindi. Mother doesn’t like speaking English.“Why are you calling me mother? Call me Ma.” (Ma)“Yes, Ma
Not a husband I really want to make him pay
(Mona POV)The last thing I remember is my husband saying some incomprehensible words. They exactly weren’t incomprehensible but I couldn’t make anything out of them. I had signaled others to take the initiative and capture my husband. I know that they also harbor some sort of feelings for him but he moved before us.I passed out after the white smoke hit me. Waking up, I found myself on a mattress. Ariel and Tsubasa are on my each sides. I sit up and try to assess the situation. The floor has tatami mats. It seems like the house which my husband had recently bought. “What time is it?” I asked myself expecting no one to answer it for me.“It’s evening. You were conked out for more than 5 hours.” I heard an answer. It came from behind me. I look back as well. There, I find a seated Shizuka. “What are you doing?” “Meditating. His actions made me do something that I wasn’t accustomed to do. I have to recompose my mind.” (Shizuka)She sits normally. I also sit facing her. “What e
Not a husband The actual truth
(Mona POV)Everything has become complicated. Serus or whatever his name is, has totally messed up our lives. Masato said that Akito is coming here with my mother. I patiently wait for them to arrive. Ariel and Tsubasa did wake up. They started throwing a fit about wanting to see Akito. We had no choice but to make them remember. They were present when Serus revealed everything.One thing is still bothering me. Why are their memories so jumbled? They were supposed to have gone to the same elementary school. But what Serus said doesn’t match with Ariel’s memories.I guess only one way to find out. It’s usually our parents who raise us. So they remember things we forget. My mother has a lot to explain.Currently, we are all sitting in the hall room. With a grim look on her face, Ariel is silent. She has been that way ever since we made her remember what Serus said.Tsubasa is also the same. How is she so attached to Serus?I feel like nothing has changed. We still don’t know anything.
Not a husband The movie and vengeance
(Akito POV)Ever since I have stepped foot in India, I have been a bit dramatic. I am feeling like my emotions aren’t in control. On a sudden impulse, I came here to watch a movie. The movie is supposed to be good. I heard good things about this movie. I bought two tickets and got us some popcorn to munch on with some cola. Our seats were at a corner of the theater. The movie is about to begin.“You like this actor if I remember correctly, don’t you?” I asked Ratri. “Yes. I have been a fan of him since childhood. I find it hard to believe that he is the same age as my father.” (Ratri)“Well, he takes good care of himself. See, the movie is about to begin.” The lights were off and the movie began. Very typical for a movie opening. It took about 5 minutes just to get to a movie scene. The beginning is full of sponsor names and stuff like that.Anyway, I won’t describe the movie word for word. It’s a good movie. The story is a spy thriller. Two countries at odds with each other. One
Not a husband The package

My father knew some of it but the rest was still too shocking for him.And Mr. Kanehaya had no idea. Must have been a pretty big blow. I am still uncertain.
