“Why?”                                          

     Episode- 127 “Why?”                                               Alisa’s POV:            I opened my eyes, lazily sat on the bed… my eyes were still half closed as I remembered the scenes in the morning… right I was locked in the room but now I am on my bed…. I looked through the room and saw no one…. How I am here?     I noticed water and food on the table… yes, I am hungry… but I need to pee first… I rushed to the bathroom, on the way I noticed the sky was dark… it’s night already… I walked to the bathroom  and returned after 20 minutes, I took a shower as well… I wore comfortable clothes……………..     I went to bed and started eating my food, like I was not peaceful for long Edwin walked in…. I swallowed my food avoiding his gaze, I am scared of him. he was wearing a V-neck shirt and pants…. He came with his laptop. Why is he here?   He is not talking, he is sitting on the bed beside me and doing his work. I can’t eat anymore because he is here… I placed the food on the table but I heard him, “Finish it all…. I don’t like people who waste food.”    I turned to my back to him and continued eating, does he knows how hard it is to eat when you are with a person whom you fear the most…. I finished the food and gulped water…. I suddenly remember about Tina… I didn’t show up at work  she might be worried.    I searched for my phone like crazy, I found it lying under the table. I saw 26 missed calls and dozens of messages… I dialed Tina’s number and as soon as she picked up she screamed in my ears, she said, “Idiot!… I thought you died or something…. Fine, you ok right?... Alisa”    I answered, “Yes… I-I”     I was frozen to hear Tina, “Why do you did this?... why are you closing store?...”     I almost screamed, “What!?” I noticed Edwin was looking at me with straight face… no expression just pure darkness.      Tina spoke further, “Wait…. You don’t know about this?.... Alisa, Alisa,… Your husband sent Ken to inform me that you are closing store in two days… that we won’t work anymore …. What happened?”     I was in tears, but I cut the call saying, “We are not closing… just manage till I am there… call you later.” I was looking at Edwin with anger, my hands formed a grip on my phone… he is trying to cage me…. he is destroying something I work hard for years…       My anger is at the edge, I tried to stay in control and walked to him. I asked, “Why?” my eyes were teary at this point    He just smirked in response, I screamed, “WHY!!!!”    I grabbed his shirt and asked, “Why are you doing this?... I worked hard all this years… you can’t take it away.” I cried in the end like a child… always my tears betray me…     He placed his laptop away and pulled me in his laps suddenly, then he secured my hands in his and smirked… like he was enjoying this condition of mine.    He wiped my tear and said, “It’s your punishment… every time you break rule or make mistake you pay for it….. I thought you knew it long ago.”     I whispered, “Punishment?”    He chuckled placing his hands on my waist, “I gave you freedom to work …. I even went gentle after your divorce drama…. But you planned another escape from me… do you think I will forgive you again?” the last part was like a warning…….
