Cruel World

Chap 57
Theo
In the psychologist office...Theo observed the room to be little very bright for his liking.
Sarah was sitting far beside him and was ignoring him, he felt powerless. He attends many anger management classes in his
teen and he hates it. It makes him angry and powerless just like now, he usually runs away from such classes but this is
important ...very important for Sarah.
She needs to open up....no matter how much it hurts her or him
The doctor Becca ...one of the best in the city was smiling at them and asked random questions.
Becca might have judged their weak response and then said 'I know you guys just wanted me to jump to the problem and give
you solution of it in one session... I hope I can do that but most of my patients don't understand that I can't help them if I don't
know their problem, so you guys have to be very open about your relationship and about your issues '
Becca drop the files in front of them 'I have studied them properly and find out some tough and bitter truth that took me days to
decide to take your case, but looking both of you giving a chance to your marriage is one of the hell shocked for me too. So I will
start with you theo...why you abused Sarah and why the hell Sarah you haven't filed an single police filed against him in so many
years' Becca looked them in a disapproving tone
Both theo and Sarah flinched with the question. Theo get angry 'you should have given us some warning. Is this the way to talk
so directly'
Becca looked bore 'look Mr grey I'm doing what you guys want me to do and secondly this information was given by you in
details...you did a great number on her(she pointed at sarah) and Sarah I must say you are either brave or a fool to still stay with
him. So without wasting further can you guys give me your reasoning why you did this ?'
Theo was fuming in anger ...how dare she is ...how can she talk him like that....but then he saw sarah face...full of fear...full of
tears..full of pain
He touches Sarah's hand and 'tell her anything. I won't say a thing'

Sarah try to compose herself but she lost it and cry..it was difficult for her...he can see in her eyes she was gone to that dark area
of her life where he as a monster
She gradually spoke and tell Becca things from the start. At some point she stops but by Becca soft encouragement made her
keep on going on.
Sarah was crying badly when she explained her first year married life 'I was so confused so confused...why this is happening to
me...why me....why Theo the man I met a few months ago who was nothing but gentle, kind and loving but now beating the hell
out of me in our wedding night....calling me names ...blaming me for something I have no idea...then (she put her hand on her
face) then I was brutally raped by my husband ..it was my first time. I have so many dreams like any other newlywed but(she
shake her head) then this thing become a routine for him and for his family...for years they were slowly killing me'
Theo felt his heart his been exploding into painfully tiny pieces...fuck it is more difficult for him to listen....his tears were also
falling down
Becca gives Sarah some water. Sarah took the sip 'i was not human there I was not even an animal there. I was just a punching
bag for everyone...no one cares I was dead or alive....including my own parents. I was burning with fear and no one even check
on me, not a single drop of water was given to me when I got so sick at the start of my marriage.
Theo left me alone in the room, his mom starts torturing me with lots of work and degrading me even knowing how much sick I
was. I asked for medicine and his mom laughed in my face and pushed me in the cold swimming pool. My whole body felt like it
was tingling in the fire, in pain. When theo came back from office in my naive heart I think he will understand my situation may
pity me and take me to doctor
.but (Sarah wiped her tears) the moment I told him about his mom treatment, he slapped me on the face and did horrible things
with my feverish body. I don't know when he stops but all i know i was fainted and next morning i woke with a cup of juice and
pills...I was so alone and hurt....'
Theo was stun that how much she has stored into her heart...how much he and his family hurt her.
Becca looked both them quietly 'ok sarah I think you did great....we will continue in next session but if it makes you feel ok then I
will give you small homework.
write down those specific acts that you hate in theo and or your in-laws and give them to Theo and theo I want you to read them
separately and try to see why you did that at that moment and don't say because of your sister death because I can feel there

more and don't discuss any of these points with each other....just bring those notes and we will discuss together...i think it was
more than enough for Sarah to speak....next session will be next week..See you than '
Becca stand and hold Sarah's hand 'you are strong so don't let your past let you fall down now and theo if you are really sorry
then you will do the best for everyone..nows that's the advice for today' she smiled
In the car theo and Sarah were quite...he was feeling immensely guilty...and so hate for himself....why he did those things to
Sarah was way much more as Becca said...he cants even explain properly
Sarah aimlessly looking at the window...theo touch her hand 'Sarah I'm so sorry...today the things you said ...oh god I hate
myself so much...damn it'he punched the steering wheel..sarah flinched
Sarah looked at him 'please just don't anything about it...you have no idea how it was for me to say stuff there. I had a good day
today but this session totally spoils my moment but you were right I need it. I feel so light, so without discussing anything we
should go home...Ava must be waiting for us'
Theo looked her one more time and regretfully node.

Theo was in his home office, trying hard to look into the project report but his mind kept on diverting to Sarah conversation with
Becca...he wanted to kill himself for the things he put Sarah into...he was feeling immensely guilty and disgusted with himself....it
was totally a gut-wrenching moment
Tom enters the office 'Hey brother where were you lost'
Theo looked him 'what you want Tom'
Tom raises the file 'you were asking this few minutes ago it was in my room'
Theo took it and put it aside...tom frowned 'whats wrong...did something happen in the office ...did Sarah was ok in the office?'
Theo shook his head 'no no everything is fine..it was...today we had a first consulting session...and it was tough' he quietly said
Tom give an understood look 'I can't even imagine.'
Theo sighs 'forget it...so tell me how's the second baby is keeping you up'

Tom crack a smile 'well I'm dealing with my wife extreme moods wings....but theo I'm so excited for this baby..like so so
much....you know we are having a boy'
Theo was happy for his brother 'you always love kids and I'm so glad you are having a son. I know deep down you loved boys'
he teases him
Tom laughed 'tell me about it..but yes Lisa is extremely happy and super protective about this baby, you should have seen her I
can't even touch her for months' tom made a face
Theo laughed 'join the club dude'
But then they heard the butler voice in a frantic motion 'sir..sir...miss lisa..miss Lisa'
Tom and theo stand up 'what happens to Lisa' Tom run to the butler
Butler replied 'she falls down the stairs'
Tom look like he lost all blood and he runs. Theo also run to his brother but deep down Theo knew something bad had already
happened.
