Chapter-10

Kabir’s POV

“Are you okay with the status difference we have in both the families” Dad asked mom.

Whom they are talking about!!!

“If status would have mattered me that much, would not we be the happiest parents 3 years back when

we had a daughter in law of our status… I only want children’s happiness. And I found her perfect”

mom stated.

I heard this conversation before showing my presence to my parents who are discussing about that

marriage crap again I guess!!!!

They found one more suitor.

“Duggu, come have your dinner first!!! Then we have to discuss something important with you” mom

said.

I nodded while looking towards Kunal who is showing his teeth sheepishly.

What is the matter with him? Idiot!!!

I sat on the chair and started my dinner

.

“Where is doll?? Has she eaten something or not” I asked mom

“She has eaten her food. Now sleeping in her room. Its late in the night and she has a school

tomorrow” Mom said

“Hmm” I said and again started my food.

“So, the thing is today we visited your prospective bride. And even after reading your letter, she is

interested in the marriage” mom announced.

“What!!!, She agreed even after reading the letter… Did you really gave her the letter or you guys are

bluffing” I asked as I am unsure about them.

And of course how could be any girl agree to marry me when I have already laid my conditions.

Only Mother to my doll✔

No wifey rights✔

No control over my life✔

No money✔

No alimony in case of divorce ✔

No extra-marital affair✔

“Yes bro, she agreed after reading your letter. Actually, she has not agreed yet but she will announce

her decision tomorrow as she need some time to think” kunal informed.

Ohh!!! So, decision is still pending!!!

“I know she will say yes. She is a nice girl. Well cultured, polite and soft. At least someone is interested

in this marriage after 1 month of our bride-hunt” mom said while praising the girl.

Mom is really sweet. Easily fell in trap of honey coating words of anyone.

“Also, you may need to meet her once she agrees” dad said

I nodded while saying nothing.

Mom and dad left the dinning area.

“Bro” Kunal said

“Hmm” I encouraged him to say further.

“Should I say something? Both the girls were very beautiful and damn hot!!!” He said dreamily.

I rolled my eyes at his words.

“Both???” I enquired.

“Yes your bride and her sister” he informed.

“Okay!!! But you control your horses… She might be your sister in law in future and her sister would be

our family also. So, be in your limits” I warned.

“Yes bro, I know!!! I was just stating the fact” Kunal said while shrugging his shoulders.

“Whatever” I said and left the room as my dinner was over.

Payal’s POV

I was trying to search the switch as there was a darkness everywhere. I was not able to see anything

ahead. I was walking but stopped when I feel someone was standing in front of me...

"Cupcake" he said.

I stilled. Only one person called me with this name. Him

"Sugar, Is this you??" I asked while trying to control my emotions

"Yes my cupcake, its me!!!" He said.

I tried to control my tears which were flowing continuously.

"Why did you left me??? I am still waiting for you... pls come back to me...I will be your good girl!!!" I

requested while sobbing.

"Cupcake, listen to me very carefully you have to move forward and accept this proposal while

forgetting the past" he said.

"Noo, how can I forget??? Even if I try, I am not able to move. I am struck there in past only!!!" I said.

"I know cupcake, but your past gave you pain, suffering, misery and lot of humiliation. Now, you need to

forget all those painful memories and look into your future which will be a very beautiful experience for

you" he tried to pacify me.

"No sugar, please!!! I need you. Please come back to me!!! Why did you left me???" I asked moving

forward to hold his hand.

But he started taking steps backward.

"Nooo" I woke up while screaming...

Shit!!! It was a dream. I moved my hands on my face only to feel tears on my face...

What was that?? I looked beside me to see amu sleeping peacefully.

I moved to bathroom for starting my day... I have to give my answer by the evening today!!!

In the college...

"So, you are saying there is a marriage proposal which came yesterday and you have to answer it by

evening. And you are not arriving to any decision yet" Sana asked me.

I nodded.

I am very disturbed since morning. First that dream which was a clear indication of what to do, then ma

who is behind me to accept the proposal and me, well i am not sure what to do!!!

Therefore, i confined in Sana and told her yesterday's happening.

"I am so confused what to do yr, suggest me!!!" I asked Sana.

"In my opinion, you should give it a try. Now you have to move forward. You should meet him once or

twice before arriving at any decision. It’s a life long decision, Payal. You have to be very careful!!!" She

suggested.

"Thanks yrr, I will think what you said. Now I should get going. My lecture will be starting soon" I said

and run towards my class.

After arriving, I started my lecture as usual...

"Entrepreneurship development is basically the process of improving the skill set as well as the NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

knowledge of the entrepreneurs. This can be done through various methods such as classroom

sessions or training programmes specially desig-" i stopped as i don't know what i am teaching.

"Our teacher doesn’t know what to teach" one student said

"Looks like teacher forgot to eat almond today, that’s why unable to recall" another student said.

All started giggling and laughing at their own jokes.

But my mind is not here. I was thinking about my decision which I need to declare. My mind is only

saying one thing. Marriage!!! Marriage!!! Marriage!!!

I closed my eyes to relax my mind while i again i heard students murmuring.

"She already slept" everyone again laughed.

But I don’t care. I was still thinking while whole class was laughing, giggling, gossiping. In short, class

was in chaos.

"Silence" Everyone stopped at the voice. But the voice was not mine.

"Principal Sir" I whispered while standing up from chair.

"What is this happening in your class Ms. Payal. Where is the discipline of the class gone???" Sir

asked sternly

"I am so sorry, it won't happen again. Sir" I said in a apologetic manner.

He nodded his head.

"Sir, Can I leave for the day after this lecture. I am not feeling well" I requested him.

"Okay you can go!!! Next time, be careful in your class" he warned.

"Yes!!!" I said

He left the class. I glanced at whole class. Everyone trying to control laugh while making a serious

face.

What an embarrassment!!! Ughh!!!

Soon bell rang and i picked up my belonging and moved out of the college...

During my ride from college to home, I stopped at a P.C.O as I need to call him before announcing my

decision... Today's is a big day for me and I have to hear him once!!!

I dial a number. Phone started ringing but nobody picked up the call...Call automatically cut down. I

again dialled the no.

Pls pick up...pls pick up...pls pi-

"Hello" A person answered from other side.

A pile of sob started but i suppressed my voice as i don't want to acknowledge my presence... It’s been

more than 3 yrs since i have heard his voice...

"Hello, who is this???" He again asked.

I dropped the receiver & cut the call. A sob escaped from my mouth. I controlled myself & started my

journey again.

At home

Ma was asking my decision since the time I came back.

But i shrugged and went to take a nap.

After waking up, i walked to ma's room to announce my decision.

"I am ready for the marriage. But I want to meet him once before finalizing anything" I said

Ma came & hugged me...

In evening Mrs. Khurana called to know our decision.

“She has arranged a meeting for tomorrow” ma informed after cutting the call.

“She will message the details of venue & time after discussing. I have given her your number for direct

contacting you” I nodded my head.

At La Meridian Restaurant

Kabir’s POV

I was waiting for the girl whom mom selected as my bride. But she is late.

I have a meeting in an hour. So, if she doesn’t appear in 5 mins, I am leaving from here.

I was busy in my phone emailing an important document to my secretary when some angelic voice

interuppted my work.

“Mr. Khurana???”

I slowly raised my head and glanced at the girl standing in front of me only to have a shock of my life!!!
