It ain't no sin.

"I am free now... I have attained my freedom now"... Thought Prajna to herself.
Standing at the terrace and looking down at parking she could see two bodies there. Both the bodies suffered a heavy blood loss.
All Prajna did, looking at those lifeless bodies was laugh, she was laughing out loud and she was shouting at the top of her voice as if she was letting all her burden out which she was carrying from very long.
She shouted at the top of her voice, “I am free now."
Ambulance came, took the bodies for post mortem.
 Prajna was being found in the entire building and the nearby campus, her paternal uncle in law and his son, her cousin was being brutally murdered by someone, they were first stabbed and then were dropped down from the terrace.
Yes, the same terrace where Prajna was laughing and shouting like a mad girl.
Raghav came running and panting to the terrace to find Prajna already present there to his surprise.
He asked in doubt, "what are you doing here?" There were no lights at the terrace but just the dim moonlight helped Raghav to see blood stains on Prajna's dress.
He held her by her shoulder and pulled her closer, now he could even smell the fresh blood that stained her dress.
He cupped her face and all he asked was, "why?"
Prajna looked into his eyes and tears started flowing profusely from her eyes.
All she could say was,"I could not take it anymore Raghav and I have not committed a sin. I don't regret it." She held her head high and walked towards the edge of the terrace.
Raghav silently walk behind her. It was the first time they were talking to each other.
They both loved each other; they always skipped a heartbeat when they looked into each other’s eyes.
They were neighbours since last 2 years.
At the very first site they fell for each other, but Prajna always acted weird and hence Raghav never got guts to initiate a conversation.
Prajna started narrating her story. Raghav was listening to every word she uttered.
Prajna: "six years ago my parents and my bui (paternal aunt) died in a car crash. I was in class sixth then, I was totally devastated I lost my entire world. My parents, I was totally shattered and broken, I had no one in the name of family. Akshat bhai and phufa ji even lost their mother and wife. They were my whole and sole support. Bhai was in 12th standard I remember. Our sessions just got started. We both were in same school. After the performance of all the rites and ritual bhai n phuphu asked me to move in with them. I had no other option as I had no other relative here.
I use to cry all night long and bhai tried to calm me down, only he knew what I was going through as we both lost our parents."
Prajna was sobbing hard, she was choked.
After wiping her tears she again started narrating it was hard for her but she wanted to do this, she always wanted to share about her suffering to Raghav, since the day she saw him.
Prajna:"we were back to our normal life after a few months, we started living like a family, and we laughed we cried, we cooked, we went out. We did everything together.
Exams were approaching both bhai and me studied hard and took our exams and we passed with flying colours.
It was almost a year now to that accident, to that irreversible loss.
Bhai got admission in the best college here. I was being promoted to class 7th now.
Bhai and I shared the same room. We got different beds. One night bhai was doing something on his laptop and I needed it urgently for a project work so without asking I just snatched it from him. It was an awkward moment for both of us; he was watching an adult movie.
Since that day I could never meet his eyes, but eventually within a month things were normal again.
One fine evening when I came back from school I found phuphu at home. When I asked him about his early arrival he said he had a minor headache so he took a day off.
We had lunch together. After a very long time I was having a company for lunch.
While having lunch phuphu told me that bhai won't return for the night as he went for a road trip with his friends.
The entire day went off. At night after dinner I went to my room. It was around 11 when phuphu came in and asked if I needed something, I nodded with a fake smile. I was afraid of darkness and hence was wondering what to do, how to sleep. Only then did phuphu ask if he could sleep in my room on Bhai's bed.
I nodded in assent. I don't know when I fell asleep."
Prajna left a sigh closed her eyes and continued further.

Prajna: "midnight it was I could feel someone touching me. I got up suddenly, and found phuphu sitting on floor next to my bed. That touch was uncomfortable, that was a wrong touch I know it was wrong. I could not believe my eyes. For a moment I thought I was dreaming. But no it was the harsh reality which was worse than a nightmare. I did not move a bit, my mind was numb I couldn't think that this could ever happen to me.
I did not try to escape I let that beast do what he wanted. Raghav I could not fight for myself that night.
I laid there on the bed like a corpse. My body was bruised and my soul was murdered."
Prajna was weeping by now and Raghav just hugged her and it made her feel protected.
Prajna: "I was lying there naked, when my brother entered my room and both son and father had a great laugh on me. It was their plan. He recorded every moment of the sin of his father.
He came near me and asked, "wanna have fun like that girl in the movie."
I could not believe my ears bhai said that. He was the one who almost killed a boy just because he eyed on me and now."
She could not control her tears. She wept like a kid in embrace of her love.
"you need not continue" Raghav said to Prajna.
She wiped her tears and said, "No Raghav let me say it all today I have kept this within me since so long. Don't stop me; I want to let out this pain of 5 years."

Prajna: "that night was no less than a scary,horror dream for me, my own uncle whom I used to consider as a father figure, and my brother whom I thought to be my protector made me lose my everything that night. I just did not lose my virginity that night, I lost myself, my dignity, my self-respect. I felt as if it was being snatched by me.
I could not feel my body. My heart ache was far beyond the physical pain I was suffering.
They left the room, and I fell asleep crying.
The next morning I woke up, I had a severe headache, as I saw blood on my bed, flash back of whatever happened the last night was right in front of me.
I shouted out loud and that bastard came running into our room, yes that brother of mine, but I didn't feel like calling him bhai, how could I, after what he did last night, I could just call him a beast.
He hushed me and laughed out and asked, "Had fun last night?" and mocked.
I felt like killing him there and then but I could not even move.
He asked me to get fresh and come for breakfast.
I got up though I had no strength yet I did, went to the washroom and tried to get rid of every touch of their.
I was so angry at myself, that I didn't fight and just gave up like that.
I went to the dining space both the f**kers were having breakfast. I sat there with my regular bread jam. I don't know how I got the courage to sit there in front of them. I was so angry that I got up threw a glass on floor and said that I will complain to police and then Akshat just passed his phone to me, a video was going on. I was jaw dropped that video was my, it was the same video of their sin which they recorded last night. I tried to snatch his phone but could not.
He then said, "don't try to be over smart, this video can go viral in a nano second and it won't take us time to abandon you as our faces are nowhere in it."
I was numb again. I was captivated now to a mistake I never did."

Prajna: I went back to my room and Akshat followed me in and he switched on his laptop and came near me. I pushed him back as I even didn't want his shadow to fall over me.
He chuckled and just kept the laptop in front of me and asked me to have a look at the video going on. I could not believe my eyes it was my video. He had an entire folder of my censored videos. He had a camera fit in the room and bathroom. He had videos of my every move.
I was hell afraid, I was living with a pair psychopaths. He said just do as we say and these videos would be a secret. Just between us. He smiled like a devil and left the room."
She turned towards Raghav, faced her and said, "5 long years Raghav, 5 long years, these two sick men,don't know if I can call them humans but,they just raped me every single night and I kept silent. But I was not ready for tonight, I wanted this to end and hence I decided to make them pay for their sins.
I sent two different texts to both of them, I asked both of them to come and meet me on the terrace. I kept a time gap of 10 minutes between both the texts and asked his father to come first.
I was standing right here near the edge holding a dagger in behind as soon as he came near me, I hugged him and alas! Stabbed him in his stomach. He was heavy very carefully I pushed him down and he fell for his death. I smiled I saw him lying there lifeless. But no it was not over yet, I knew Akshat was on his way to meet his death, after 5 minutes of waiting he entered the terrace with that sly smile of his, and for the first time in these 5 years I smiled back at him and that was even for the last time.
The same punishment was given to him as to his father; I punished him in the same way as I punished his father. Stabbed him and made him fall for his death.
I didn't kill them I punished them and I did no sin, 'cause no law could have punished them equivalent to their crime.

I ain't killed them, I punished them and I don't regret it.
