After 2 years n few months
Kate
'daddy why cant I ride the bella fast' emma fussed
Bella her pony which is not so a pony but turns into beautiful horse..
Alex told her kindly' baby you know you cant... I dont want you to get hurt nor n secondly when you are riding alone you're going to ride under this speed'
'daddy im 5 im big girl... Im expert now'.
Alex n I just laughed at her bossy response..
Yes my beautiful emma turn five n we had a beautiful big frozen birthday theme party.... my little miss was treated as a princess n she got so many gifts the her room was crowded.... especially my parents brought her everything she told them a head a month which turns out to be a lot of present...Alex n I decided to buy her ipad but only for educational purposes... n me I decided to give her Elsa costume which obviously she wear...it was a great day but my little Aria was ignored terribly that day... n she was confused n sad... I try to cheer her but she by mistake did something that makes my parents n Alex lashed at her....
It most the end of party.... emma was showing her gifts to Aria.... Alex n My parents were in the living room... n we was entertaining them... then I heard Emma crying n she came to living room with her wet dress n Aria following her with her head down ....Every one become alert n I picked emma n asked ' whats wrong baby?'
She sobbed n said 'Aria dropped juice in my dress n my new gifts... every thing is ruined... it was my favorite'
Before I can say anything my mom said to Aria ' hey you girl... are you so jealous of your sister that you ruined her dress n her gifts' Aria looked scared when my mom said loudly
Aria run n hugged my leg... I asked 'Aria ok baby tell what you did... its ok nothing to worry...I speak to her softly... then my father said ' you should have taught her some manners'
Aria was becoming more scared n she hide her faced behind my back
Alex mom says 'its ok everyone... you know kids... when they play they get naughty... but our little Aria wont do this... it was a mistake... isn't my baby'
Aria noded n said ' yes grandma... me was holding the glass... but it was sooo heavy that it falls... it was mistake 'she said her in baby voice
Emma was crying n says 'I told her its heavy but she doesn't listen... n now Its ruined ... my dress'
By hearing this Alex become angry n said to Aria angrily 'You should probably listen to your big sister ...now look what have you done... and stop hiding behind your mother back... come front n say sorry to emma... n say you wont touch her things unless n until she gives you permission... now say sorry'
Alex was now looking at Aria with angry face.... Aria start shaking with fear... she have never seen Alex this angry... may be Alex always avoid her that why...
Alex mom n I said together 'ALEX..'
He looked us broodingly..... Aria come front n say with trembling lips n tears falling in her face.. 'im shorry... n I not touch emma toys anymore...
Looking my baby crying.. it broke my heart.... I picked her n said ' its ok baby ... dont cry'
Emma also felt the tension n she became sad too n said 'yeah its fine Aria ... plz dont cry'
Then my mother said ' Looked at my Emily daughter she is so forgiving unlike your daughter who ruines everything'
I can't control myself n said ' no mom you are wrong... n we are making a big deal of it ... a two n a half year doesn't thinks like that.. so plz because of me dont sat stuffs infont of the kids'
I looked Aria sad blue eyes n take her to the room... she crying n then she said something which make me speechless' mama no one loves me'
N those, words still haunts me
I came back when I heard horse paddle sound... I saw Alex was now sitting with emma n riding.... he looked very handsome when he saw me checking me out he give me sexy grin .... I blushed.
I saw Aria was sitting with me coloring butterflies.... she becomes obessed with butterflies when I took her to the butterfly garden.... but she was looking longingly at Alex n emma now who were laughing at something n spending some quality time which my Aria will never get even she gets some idea of it.... After that day Aria becomes little hesitant of Alex ... whenever he is around she looks down n always stay with me... that mommy going to save her from fathers anger..... but I know she loves her daddy because whenever he come from office she always run to living room to greet him but alex never hug her or even look at her... a little girl should bot feel such things like I have been feeling all this in my life.... I playfully touched her hair... n she give me beautiful smile 'Are you having fun Aria' She smiled n said 'yes mama... can have this butterfly shoes mama?'
I softly laughed ' ofcourse baby... n it will also go with your new frock too'
Emma choose the moment n said 'Daddy im tired... need break'
Alex replied 'As you say my highness'
Emma giggled n said ' Daddy can you give Aria ride... she get scared... but if you teach her how to ride then she be expert like me... right Aria ...'
Aria shy away n looked at Alex n said 'i want too'.... like she is excepting Alex will say yes... but im afraid of Alex answer...
Alex looked uncomfortable n said' may be another time.... daddy is,also tired'
Emma fussed' Daddy... you never play with Aria ... she always get sad about it... n I don't like it'
Alex n I give Aria a stunned expression.... Aria never told me about this.
I said' ok everyone have some snacks first'
Emma gives a pout n Alex sit next to me....
Aria was not eating her sandwich n I saw her try to run in the garden....
I said 'Aria.. first you finished this then you go...
Aria give me pout' mama a butterfly ... please me go'
I smiled' baby its gone now... where you gonna find it?'
Aria ' no me go... n find'
Alex replied 'Aria listen to your mother'
When Alex said Aria becomes shy n said quietly with me... in order to control your child behavior parents can be little strict n demanding....but Alex was harsh when he said those words. Aria said Sorry daddy'
I saw guilt in Alex eyes... n now he feel bad....
Emma break the moment n said ' mama daddy Aria birthday is next week can we have her party now... we haven't celebrated Aria birthday yet for the past two years....'
For the past two years Aria birthday was gone like a normal day ... on her first birthday I told Alex that we can arrange small get together with friends n family
But Alex response was 'why even bother no one even come n few months before it was emma birthday.... I don't want to disturb Emma school routine.... n I have lot of work in office...secondly she is one she even doesn't care she had a party or not..' I flinched.... Alex was really uninterested in Aria life... I can't control my tears but Alex might have saw my face n then he say in guilty voice n said ' kate (he sighs) im sorry that was harsh... but really im busy n your mother is not well too so... why don't you take girls there favorite place... in this way birthday will be celebrated'
I said yeah... you r right'
N the next birthday I really don't even tired... Alex was gone to office trip... Alex parents came with cake n gifts n when the saw there was no indication of any birthday party they realized it was Alex lack of interest ...
I came back from my memories when I heard aria voice
Aria looked so happy 'yes me want party... butterfly party... with butterfly cake.'
Emma n Aria becomes so excited that I looked so happy to them...
Emma said ' Daddy you have to be there... no more work ok'
Alex said we will see'
Alex cold reply was enough to understand that he has no interest in Arias birthday.... I hurt for my child... day by day Aria is becoming victim of Alex indifference n inferiority complex..... all of my life I have been like this I don't want this for my Aria too. Aria pull my shirt n said quietly in her baby voice' mama... daddy tell..me will be nice.... me not touch emma toys ... but please me want butterfly party...with daddy ...please'
Those desperate words coming out of Aria mouth moist my eyes...shit whats happening with my child .... n she still remember Alex words also hurt me a lot.... Looking at Alex face make me realized he also heard those words because he look so tense n emotional but he didn't say a word I said to Aria' baby we will talk later... n its I want not me ok my love'
I stand n said ' come on emma... its bath time... n its getting cold so we should go inside'
Emma run to me n hold my hand.... but Aria was not in mood of going... she loves garden n fresh air..
Aria said can me..I stay please.. I want to take bella home n give food'
One of her routine...
Emma said ' you are so scared of her ridding but still you go every day to feed her'
Aria pout' shes botiful... I will ride one day'
Emma said ' Daddy why don't you go with Aria ... she will show you the bella house'
Aria hesitantly but hopefully looked at Alex
Alex replied ' One of the in charge of stable will take her'
Aria faced fall n she looked down
I said ' how about we girls go n take bella in her house n feed her'
Both my girls excitedly say yes n run
I was going when Alex picked my wrist n kissed me hard... his kissed was so emotional n passionate that I get lost in it n try to understand its inner meaning
Alex removed his lips n we both breath heavily
I said 'what's that for?'
He simply replied with sad smile
for being so you and bearing me
