A strange mental asylum Part 3
Another man entered Nitya’s room. “Nitya”,he called her.She looked at him. He was another patient named Jeev who lives there. Jeev:I am so happy that you are out of the cell.Now I can come and see you at any time. Nitya was silent. His face became dull. Jeev:Even though i told you that I will come and meet you frequently why are you not even smiling? Nitya felt bad seeing him sad. She smiled at Jeev:Jeev! Jeev looked at her.Seeing her smile at him,Jeev became happy and smiled at her. Reyaansh was reading a diary.
Reyaansh remembered how he found this diary from Nitya’s bag when he checked her bag.He did this when Nitya was busy with Rani.
He saw a photograph in the diary.
“I am Alekh Mittal.I had everything in my life.Wealth,a loving wife..but my only pain was my daughter’s Nitya’s mental illness post her accident.But still I am not depressed as I got my daughter alive even after a major accident.My brothers Andy..Giriraj and their wives Sumitra and Chitra hated Nitya and tagged her as a mental patient.They wanted me to throw out Nitya.But I never did it.My Nitya is my jewel”.
From a far distance Reyaansh saw Jeev and Nitya smiling at each other.
They were cracking jokes and laughing too.
Reyaansh read some sentences in Alekh’s diary.
“My Nitya will get her true love.Maybe he is the one who is meant for my daughter.Because mentally he is same as her”.
Reyaansh looked at Nitya and Jeev emotionally.
Reyaansh was standing near the river thinking of Nitya.
Suddenly he felt someone trying to strangle him.He tried to remove those hands off his neck.But during that struggle he fell into the river.But he swam and came back to the shore.
Reyaansh:Who tried to kill me?I am sure that he is a goon sent by Dr.Tej to kill me.
Dr.Tej and Swetlana are scared of me.That’s a good sign.
Reyaansh smirked.
Reyaansh was in his room.Surprisingly Nitya came to his room.He was surprised to see Nitya.
Reyaansh:Nitya!Why are you here?
Nitya:I felt like seeing you.
Reyaansh smiled:Why?
Nitya blushed:I ..I don’t know.
He smiled.
Suddenly hearing the thunder sound,Nitya hugged him in fear.
He was smiled at her gesture and embraced her back.
Nitya:I feel scared.
Reyaansh:No need to be scared.It’s only a thunder.
Slowly Nitya looked at him in relief.
Reyaansh took Alekh’s photograph and showed it to her.
Reyaansh:Can you recognize him?
Nitya became emotional.
Nitya:Papa..
Reyaansh smiled.
Reyaansh:Actually what happened that day?Do you remember anything?I don’t think you can kill anyone.I am sure that someone else did the murder.Do you remember who did those murders?
Nitya was silent.
Reyaansh:If you don’t remember anything,it’s ok.Anyways it’s night.You sleep.
Reyaansh took her to her bedroom and laid her on the bed.
Reyaansh:Good night!
Nitya:Good night.
Nitya closed her eyes and slept.
Reyaansh was in his bedroom.To his shock,Swetlana came inside.
Reyaansh:Why are you here at midnight Swetlana?
Swetlana:I realized that you have not slept yet.Guess you have a sleepless night.So I thought to give you a company.
Swetlana went very close to him in a seductive manner pulling him closer to her.
Swetlana:I am willing to do anything for you.But in return just write a good report about our service in this mental asylum.
Reyaansh smiled at her.She smiled in a seductive manner taking his smile as a ‘yes’ to her demand.
