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
(Mona POV)A week has passed since Serus fled. This whole week was one thing after another. We had to explain the entire situation to both my father and Mr. Kanehaya. 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. Tsubasa and Ariel have pulled themselves together. Now only a fire of revenge remains in them.But I don’t know what Shizuka is thinking. She has been working on something but I don’t know what. And the African mafia has retreated. Rachel stayed behind as her studies weren’t finished. Masato has been restless since then. Akito visits him everyday. On the other hand, me and Shizuka have the duty of supervising the chapel project.Ariel is working normally too. But suddenly Masato called all of us to his house. “What could it be now?” “What did he say?” (Shizuka)“To go to his house. With you and Ariel. What is he planning this time?” I wonder what he is thinking.
Not a husband Return gift
(Mona POV)Masato has left the room to search for something. Me, Ariel and Shizuka are left here. But Masato came back soon with a laptop.He boots the laptop and starts typing aggressively. Why is he clicking so fast?“What are you doing?”“Well, I should send something to Serus as well.” (Masato)“What do you have in mind?” (Shizuka)“Serus likes chocolates. I am thinking of buying him an assortment of chocolates.” (Masato)“I didn’t know he likes chocolates.” (Ariel)“Yeah. He took a liking to it when he got some during his childhood. That’s probably the only thing Sakai ever gave him. And when he became independent, he started buying chocolates on his own.” (Masato)A side of him that no one knew. Makes me wonder how much we actually knew about him.“That reminds me, you never gave him any chocolate on Valentine’s Day?” I ask Ariel. Because she has known him the longest after Masato.“I thought he didn’t like sweets. So I didn’t give him any chocolates. But I did make him somethi
Not a husband Family circumstances
(Mona POV)Masato suddenly got a call from his friend, Sakai who is Akito’s father and a victim of Masato. But why did he call Masato now of all times?Masato takes his phone and leaves. I think he will call him back and ask. After a minute or so he came back. “What happened? What did he say?” I ask Masato. And he isn’t looking very cheerful.“Sakai said that he and Akito are coming here.” (Masato)“Here? Now of all times? Why would he come here?” (Ariel)Ariel has a harsh tone. Maybe she doesn’t like Mr. Sakai. Well, considering what he has done to Serus, he can be called a person with questionable morals.“He didn’t elaborate on why he is coming. He said that he will explain it face to face.” (Masato)I am a bit curious. Ariel seems plainly annoyed. Tsubasa and Shizuka have disinterested faces. Half an hour later, we hear the doorbell. Masato leaves to check. “This will be the first time we are meeting him. I wonder what kind of a person he is!” I am positive that he isn’t that
Not a husband The vampire

But suddenly I am being told that there exists a vampire in our country.What’s the next thing? Are they gonna tell me that aliens are real? Nessie actually exists?

Masato called me, Ariel and Shizuka to his house before they arrived.We all are here. Serus, my not so married husband, had sent a letter to Akito. It’s an apology letter from him and he has requested Akito to not help Ratri. By the way, R
