Misunderstandings

Akshay:

"Every parents will feel proud of their children. You are not any special," Netra said.

Before I could understand what she told, Sadhana reacted to her words.

"What do you mean? You are insulting my parents and...." Sadhana said.

"I just said even my parents will be proud of me. It's common," Netra said.

"You are......," Sadhana tried to say something but I cut off her words.

"Enough, Sadhana. She apologised you. It's over," I said.

"She didn't apologise me. Instead she insulted my parents," Sadhana tried to say.

"I said enough. Stop dragging it. Go to your room now. Forget it," I said seriously to Sadhana as I don't want to hurt Netra.

Sadhana left to her room and I could notice her tears. Did I do wrong by introducing Netra and Sadhana to each other? I know both have maturity and are wise but here in this situation, both failed in handling it. Or may be I failed in making them understand.

"Netra," I said.

"Enough, stop it. You have insulted ne by making me apologise her. Why should I apologise her? I didn't do anything wrong. My husband is important to me and of course, no wife likes husband prioritising someone else over her."

"Netra, you are not understanding me. I have never prioritised Sadhana over you. You are my wife and important to me than anyone else. I love you. Netra, do you remember once I told that I have a sister whom I love a lot and her marriage is my responsibility? It's Sadhana. I told about her to you even before our marriage but because of your overpossessiveness, I couldn't introduce her to you," I said.

"I don't want to listen anything. Send her out of the house now," Netra said.

"It never happens," I said firmly.

"I will leave," Netra said.

"Shut up. Stop irritating me. I have several issues which I need to manage and you both don't create a war for me at home," I told her and went to Sadhana.

"Sadhana," I said and she looked at me angrily.

"Chocolate," I said to cool her.

"Are you crazy?" Sadhana said.

"Yes, I am," I said.

"You have supported your wife and shouted at me without any reason. You won't let me go and won't let me stay," Sadhana said.

"Sadhana, if one can't understand the situation, the other should understand the situation and stay silent. Arguments kills the relationships. I don't want that," I said.

"Then why do you want? Insulting me? Breaking me? Why are you doing this to me? Let me go. That's the best thing which should be done now," Sadhana said with tears.

"No. You are not going anywhere," I said.

"I can't bear it when someone insults my character. What if I speak about her character?" Sadhana asked.

Great. They both want to insult each other which in turn insults me.

"Is that what your maturity is?" I asked Sadhana.

"Without any mistake, your wife accused me. The people who have no character can speak ill of others' character. I hate your wife," Sadhana said.

I smiled at her.

"I told you about Netra's possessiveness. But you supported her. Even before marrying her, I shared the matter with you and you told she is right for me. And now all of a sudden you hate her just because she accused you, right?" I said.

"Even now you are supporting your wife," Sadhana said.

"Think whatever you want. But you are not going anywhere. That's it," I said and went off of the house for my peace.

I went to my farm house. Netra is my love who is my everything. Though I don't have a real sister, I shared a great bonding with Sadhana. I know her before becoming the Minister. Sadhana loves and cares for me a lot and I am always proud of my sister. She handles most of the things well and I have never helped her in anything until now. And today this turned up this way.

Netra being a wife is insecure about me. Sadhana tried to leave several times but she couldn't because of the attachment we both share. I know that Sadhana is also insecure of losing her brother which resulted in fights between us many times.

When I was not a Minister, I was free to talk to my sister for a long time. But when I entered into this politics where everyone tries to play with one another, I started avoiding her. Sadhana fought with me for that and sometimes we both felt to leave each other but again we are together. Sadhana and I are too short tempered and sometimes I feel Sadhana is more short tempered than me. Sadhana fights with me for not giving time which is not in my hands. I can't become past Akshay to be like before. The only thing which she never realises is she is always my sister and there's no change in it. She says she doesn't have a family but I always want her to know that she has an elder brother. Many times, I felt I should have a sister like Sadhana.

After my marriage with Netra, I couldn't find at all to talk to Sadhana. She misunderstood me several times but all I could do is enjoy her fighting which is because she miss me. Few bondings and people enter into our life unknowingly and becomes very important to us. I thought Netra would be happy to know that Sadhana is my sister about whom I told to her earlier. But now she became overpossessiveness which made her misunderstand us.

Sadhana is also similar to Netra. Self respect is everything to her and I understand how a person feels when their character is blamed. But, sometimes giving time and showing more patience and understanding can solve the misunderstandings. I expected Sadhana to do that but now I understood none of them can slow down a bit with their unnecessary insecurity and immaturity.

I went to my home and Netra gave a letter to me.

"I am leaving the house. I can tolerate anything but not someone accusing my character. I hate it the most. I can't forgive your wife and can't be silent anymore. You too supported your wife which is not expected by me. If whatever your wife said and did is right, I can't stay here as a burden and disturbance to both of you. I tried to leave many times but you contacted me again. Atleast now leave me. Never come into my life again. You both are enemies to me for accusing my character. You are not my brother anymore. I hate you. No brother can be silent when someone insults his sister's character. It's my fault to get attached to you.

Bye,
Sadhana."

"Akshay, how could Sadhana blame me for everything. I am your wife and I will be possessive at times," Netra said.

"Leave it, Netra. Let her go. Never talk about her anymore. I was wrong by bringing Sadhana to our home. Now forget everything," I said and hugged Netra.
