Chapter 24( Jump)
Priya couldn’t believe how good she felt with Daisy, and now Daisy had just dumped her, leaving her feeling hurt.
Priya broke off the hug with Daisy and said with a sad voice, “I don’t want to go, Daisy Aunty, please.”
Daisy felt bad but knew better than to make her son angrier.
“He has a big office, and you can find new things there, Priya,” Daisy said.
Priyank was getting irritated by this talk. He didn’t want to bear it anymore. They were getting on his nerves.
“How about just stop talking, and you get ready, Angel,” he said.
Priya knew nobody was going to help her. She was all in a mess, and she knew even Daisy wouldn’t help her, so she had better not ruin things any further.
Priya nodded her head and threw an angry look at Priyank, which made his lips curve into a smirk.
“You know I can dig your eyes out for that so-called look you’re giving me,” he said.
Priya diverted her eyes and thought, “He could even make me blind, such a cruel man.”
Daisy helped her to stand and bathe. After helping her bathe, she made her wear the dress that Priyank had prepared for Priya. A pink hoodie with loose pants gave an impressive look to her tiny figure, and she looked cute in it.
Daisy changed Priya’s bandages and then combed her hair, “Priya, keep in your head not to make him angry again. It won’t end well for you. Better not think about making him angry, especially in his office. Nobody will do anything to save you there.”
Priya felt scared hearing Daisy’s words. “Aunty, then why are you sending me if this could happen? Please don’t send me anywhere. I don’t want to go anywhere.”
“Priya, you can do this. Just don’t make him angry, and everything will be fine. You don’t have to be scared at all because he won’t raise his finger on you if you behave the way he wants,” Daisy tried to cheer her up.
“How can I behave as he wants? Isn’t behaviour dependent on the person’s mind? Why do I have to behave as he wants?,” Priya asked.
Daisy knew Priya was right, but she couldn’t make her understand how Priyank is.
She couldn’t make her understand that Priyank was someone who didn’t care about anything other than his things. He scared the people he wanted to mould in his ways.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
“Aunty, tell me. Why are you sending me with that bad guy? You know Mother Mary would never let this happen, but here you are sending me away,” Priya asked.
Daisy felt bad as she knew how selfish she was behaving by sending Priya with Priyank, but she couldn’t do anything. No matter what, she had to put her son first in every way necessary.
Daisy made her hair into two pigtails, she tried to lighten up the conversation, “You’re looking cute, Priya.”
Priyank came in and, seeing Priya in pigtails, started laughing. “What is this?”
Priya pouted her lips, hearing him laugh. “Why are you making fun of me?”
“Your hair looks funny, and you’re asking why I’m laughing,” Priyank said.
Priya, with her cute, innocent voice, said, “Daisy Aunty, you told me I’m looking cute, but he is laughing at me. Why?”
Daisy threw a look at Priyank, showing that he needed to keep his laughter and mouth in control.
“What? See, I didn’t say she’s not looking cute. It’s just that she looks funny too. I’m not at fault at least,” Priyank raised his hands.
“Aunty, see, he’s still calling me funny when I’m not looking funny at all,” Priya said.
Daisy, with her eyes throwing glares at Priyank, said, “You’re not looking any less than a clown, too. We said nothing about it, like you are doing. Better keep your mouth shut.”
“Let’s go, you already made me late,” Priyank said.
“I didn’t. It’s you who immediately told me you wanted me to come with you,” Priya answered.
“Okay, I did it, but now let’s go because I don’t want to be late. I have important meetings to attend,” Priyank said.
“What about your breakfast? You can’t go without having breakfast. It’s not good at all. I can’t send Priya hungry. She has to take her medicine too,” Daisy said before Priyank could say anything further.
“I know, Mom. You don’t have to stress out because I need to give her the medicine, and we are going to eat on our way,” Priyank said.
Before Daisy could say anything further, Priyank went toward Priya and carried her in his arms, knowing she couldn’t walk.
While walking out of the house, Priyank whispered to Priya, “You’re really going to enjoy your stay with me now. Nobody is going to protect you.”
Priya’s eyes widened. She couldn’t imagine what he was planning, but the way he was speaking showed that something was not right at all, and it was scaring her.
He sat inside the car with Priya on his lap, and the driver started the car. They headed off from there. Being all stressed, Priya didn’t know what was going to happen to her.
“Why does anyone need to save me?” she asked.
Priyank raised his eyebrows. “You’re not scared?”
“Are you a ghost?” Priya retorted.
Priyank hated this game she was playing. Despite that, he asked, “No, do I look like one?”
“You do, but even if you’re, I’m not scared of you,” Priya replied. “So, no way I’m getting any fear from you.”
Priyank wanted to smash his head against the wall the way she was talking to him. She seemed to be the only person in the world not scared of him, despite everything he had done to her. At least if she were scared, she would learn not to spoil his mood. But here she was, making his temper rise.
“You better fear me. If you don’t want me to do things that can give you more pain, better don’t get on my nerves,” Priyank said angrily.
“I’m not sitting in your head, and please remove me from your lap too,” Priya replied.
“Can you shut your mouth, you dumb bitch? I am not in the mood to talk. If you are so eager to mess with me, don’t forget I can throw you out of this car. If you want this to happen, then tell me because I’m eager to do this for sure,” Priyank retorted harshly.
Priya’s face was covered in fear at the thought of being thrown out of the car. That’s something Priyank surely didn’t want.
At least now she was quiet, and that gave him some satisfaction.
“I can go to the orphanage right away, if he throws me out”, Priya thought.
“How? When your injured body hits the road, you won’t be able to walk anywhere,” her conscience replied.
Priyank saw her deep in thought and asked, “What are you thinking?”
“I’m thinking of what would happen if I jumped down from here. Is it going to hurt too much?” Priya replied without much thought.
Priyank’s eyes widened. He couldn’t believe she was thinking this way. “So how is that plan going? If you want, I can push you, then you can figure out how it feels when you fall down from the car. It’s going to be an experience you never felt before,” he said, trying to scare her.
Priya was shocked at her own words. She didn’t mean to say or even think about such things. But she has no control over her tongue, it spills the thing she never wanted to.
“So tell me if you want me to do this, I’m ready to throw you out of the car. You can enjoy the outside view,” he said.
“I can enjoy the view through the window. Why do I need to enjoy it by getting on the road?” Priya replied.
“You were the one who looked like you were going to enjoy it brilliantly if you were out. I had no issue throwing you out, and there you would have your fun day for sure,” Priyank said.
“No, you don’t have to. I changed my plan,” Priya replied.
Priyank laughed at her response. He enjoyed the way she reacted and talked.
Priya couldn’t understand why he was laughing at her. “Did I crack a joke? That makes him laugh. What’s the reason he is laughing this much, making me all shocked to see there is no reason he had to laugh like that?”
The driver was also shocked to see Priyank laughing, as he never laughed and always had a straight face.
“Do I look like a clown?” Priya asked.
While laughing, Priyank replied, “You surely do talk and look like one, no lie in it.”
Priya didn’t like being called a joker and asked the driver, “Uncle, do I look like a joker to you?”
The driver was shocked and didn’t know how to respond.
“Tell me uncle, do I look like a clown to you?” Priya asked again .
The driver was in a dilemma, unsure of how to respond without causing any trouble.
“Ahm”,
