NISHAA couple of days passed by silently. The mood of the house was a bit tense, firstly because of Avyaan's stunt and secondly everyone were busy for the reception preparations. Avyaan and I didn't talk that much. I was still upset at him for whatsver he did. He destroyed every chance of me having a relationship with my parents, and that was unsettling for me.On the other hand, his mom and bhabs took me for shopping to one of the luxury stores in Pune. They made sure that I get the best saree and jewelleries for my reception. They took me to their favourite salon for some self care, and spa time and honestly, I loved every bit of those moments. Their gestures made me excited for the reception to be honest. On the other hand, Avyaan's dad took me for food tasting, he wanted the menu consisting of my favorites. He got to know about my likes and dislikes and I got to know about his equisite taste for delicacies. All of this was new for me, yet exciting. I loved all of this.I was ha
AVYAANI was just looking at my shona when she saw her parents at the entrance. The moment I saw the spark in her eyes returning, I immediately knew that I did the right thing.She slowly walked down the stage and rushed to her parents while I saw her approaching them, and I smiled.I had to do this, because shona kept this as my ultimate test for the love I had for her and I had to prove it that I loved her.It was a bit difficult to convince her parents, and I had to admit, I did have to lie a bit, but in the end, when a lie binds the family together with happiness, it's not considered as a lie.FLASHBACKI reached Delhi early this morning and I immediately drove to shona's parents' home. As I got there, I rang the doorbell and Krishna Malhan opened the door."What are you doing here?" He immediately frowned looking at me."Hello, Mr Malhan! Good Morning," I wished him."Go away," he rudely responded.I knew that Krishna would be a tough nut to crack, but I knew that he loves is rep
NISHA"What surprises?" I asked him. The way this guy was behaving today, made me wonder so many things. Firstly, that phone, then my parents and now, more surprises? What is he even upto?"It's surprise for a reason," he winked at me and smiled."Wha..." I couldn't even say anything else."Now let's go outside. It's our reception and we aren't there. It won't make a good impression," he spoke."Yeah!" I nodded.I walked with him and we climbed back to the stage. I got a couple of more guests to be introduced to me and then, everyone started to enjoy the party.I climbed down the stage, just to witness my parents talking to Avyaan's mom and dad. I immediately walked to them."She's here!" Avyaan's dad cheered as I reached there.I smiled."Mr and Mrs Malhan. We're extremely thankful of you guys that you gave your lovely daughter to us," Avyaan's mom muttered."Infact we're lucky to have a son in law like Avyaan," My dad responded.I was surprised. Lucky to have a son in law like Avy
AVYAANShe was resting her head on my shoulders as we danced to the music. The moment felt so relaxing and peaceful. I wanted the moment to never end.This was the first day after almost an year I saw her genuinely smiling. She looked like that happy little kid wandering on the streets of Paris when I saw her for the first time. The smile and innocence that I fell for when I saw her had returned.It felt like a victory that I managed to make my shona genuinely happy, that I managed to return her happiness and smile after almost a year."Are you happy?" I asked her.She looked at me, resting her chin on my chest."Today?" She questioned back.I nodded."Yes!" I responded."Yeah. I'm the happiest after so long, today," she responded.I smiled."But then, I'm scared too," she muttered."Scared? For what?" I questioned."The last time, I was the happiest was on my Paris trip and then, you know what happened next," she responded.Her voice had a weird pain in it which I could somewhat sens
NISHAI entered ny room and sat in frustration. I had tears in my eyes and I felt miserable. Maybe this was the terrible feeling I was feeling from last night. Whenever I get too happy, my happiness is destroyed completely.I heard a knock on the door. "Nisha! Please open the door." It was my mom."Go away! I don't want to talk to you," I shouted."Nisha! Please. I'm sorry," she responded.She continued to knock the door but I was in no mood to respond to them. I didn't want to talk to them at this moment. This was something that I could never forget."I said, go away, Mom!" I shouted once again."Nisha! Stop being a brat. Open the damn door. Your mother is knocking for long while," I heard my dad screaming at me.Did he just dare to shout and blame this on me?"I don't want to talk to you guys," I responded.Their behaviour was breaking me."Nisha! Don't be stupid. Open the god damn door. Why are you behaving like a littlle child? You're married for God's sake," he screamed from out
AVYAAN"Can I hug you?""Yes!" I immediately responded to her question and she didn't waste a second before hugging me tightly. I slightly rubbed her back to provide her a bit warmth.There was a reason why I wanted to keep Shona's parents away from her. When I did my research about her, I observed the patterns and figured out that her parents are extremely toxic. So I had decided that I would keep them away from her, but things weren't in my control anymore. But, I wanted to protect her from this suffering, she's going through now."Can I ask you something?" Shona spoke up, after breaking the hug after a while."Yes?" I looked at her."Would it be okay if I announce something at family Dinner?" She asked."We're your family and no matter whatever you do, we will support you," I responded, cupping her face.She mildly smiled, but even in her smile, I could see her pain but I knew I couldn't do anything."Anyways, it's your birthday, and we're celebrating," I spoke up."How?" She que
NISHA"What?" My father almost shouted.He looked at me, agitated at my decision while my mom looked at me, completely shocked."Yes! I have decided to cut all the ties from you both," I calmly responded."Do you have any idea what you're saying? We're your parents. We gave birth to you, you can't abandon us," he scoffed."So? Is it my fault? That you're my parents? Did I ask you guys to give birth to me? What's my role in you guys giving birth to me? It was you both, right?" I questioned them, giving them a glare."Nisha! What are you saying? You're abandoning us?" My mom spoke up in a disheartened tone."I'm abandoning you today, mom. But you guys have abandoned me from your heart I don't know when," I responded.She was just looking at me. Completely dismayed at my words and ti be honest, I did feel bad. I felt terrible, but I had to do it. Because till now, I just used to have arguments with my parents, yet I felt like they were my parents, but then from today, I felt like I was a
AVYAANThe next morning I woke up, I saw shona was still sleeping. She looked extremely beautiful in her sleep. I could just continue to see her for my entire life and do nothing else. It felt so peaceful.But my view was disrupted by a phone call. It was Namit. I got up, wore my pants and walked to the balcony."Yeah, Namit," I muttered."Avyaan, the reception is over I guess?" He questioned."Yeah!" I replied."Your wife's birthday is over too?" He asked yet again."Yes!" I answered."Then get back to work. The firm needs you and the underworld needs Demon," he shouted, almost tearing my ear drum."Why are you here?" I scoffed."I have to go to Mumbai today, for an arms deal. We need that deal," he responded."Fine," I shrugged and rolled my eyes."Come to office, boss," he spoke in an assertive tone."Okay, Namit," I replied and hung up the call.I guess, the honeymoon period is over and I have to get back to work. I sighed and entered room, just to see Shona waking up."Good Morni
