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 inw 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,e 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. Itste 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 alreadyid 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 inw 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... plse 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 ept 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. Pleasee 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 ept 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 ss.
After arriving, I started my lecture as usual...
"Entrepreneurship development is basically the process of improving the skill set as well as the
knowledge of the entrepreneurs. This can be done through various methods such as ssroom
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 andughing at their own jokes.
But my mind is not here. I was thinking about my decision which I need to dere. My mind is only
saying one thing. Marriage!!! Marriage!!! Marriage!!!
I closed my eyes to rx my mind while i again i heard students murmuring.
"She already slept" everyone againughed.
But I don’t care. I was still thinking while whole ss wasughing, giggling, gossiping. In short, ss
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 ss Ms. Payal. Where is the discipline of the ss 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 ss" he warned.
"Yes!!!" I said
He left the ss. I nced at whole ss. Everyone trying to controlugh 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 iste.
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 nced at the girl standing in front of me only to have a shock of my life!!!
