Chapter 10

Nikhil

I just saw her and my day become bright. She was looking so great in her yellow gown. Which was perfect on her. She was looking so pretty and I want her to be with me. My one mistake could bring so much trouble, I didn't know that. I regret but I can't do anything now. I just want to keep my friendship with her and that for I have to talk to her.

I come outside the house where the ceremony was held. The ceremony started. My mother one was first who apply Haldi on my cheek, hands and feet. I smiled at her and she smiled back. Soon everyone started to apply haldi on my body. I smiled at everyone. I heard giggling and that also melodious. I know whose this beautiful voice belong to. I looked at her and she was giggling. Her either side of cheek were painted haldi. Along with her friend Bhoomi. I looked at Garv who was recording them. He was smiling in his own. I didn't catch his smile meaning.

I shook off that thought and after the ceremony ended. I was walking towards my room when I saw Vidhi.

"Vidhi wait." I said and she stopped and she looked at me. I could see her those honey brown eyes. Which as always were attractive.

"What?" She asked. Her voice was neither cold nor angry. It was soft as usual.

"I want to talk to you." I said and she nodded at me.

"We can talk. But before you should talk to me you should clean up in new clothes." She said smilingly. I nodded and she went away. She hasn't changed a bit. She is still joyful, cheerful and full of new thoughts.

I go to my room and changed my clothes after having quick bath. I am very exicted to talk to her once again. I quickly changed and walk to the hall. I was waiting for her. She come down and I looked at her direction. She was in her jeans and shirt. She signed me to come towards her. I go towards her.

"We should go and talk on the terrace." She said and I nodded. We both go to the terrace. She wasn't looking at me but the view. I looked ta the view and indeed it was beautiful.

"What do you want to talk about?" I looked at Vidhi who wasn't at all looking at me.

"I... I.." I sighed when I realised that I am out of wards to speak to him.

"You what Nikhil?" She asked.

"I am sorry" I said as I felt it is good to start the conversation by saying what I am regretting now.

"Sorry for what?" She asked. I could feel the calm voice but somewhere it was also demanding the question.

"For not trusting you." I said and she looked at me.

"I am not getting what you are saying Nikhil. " She said. I take a deep breath.

"Seven months ago. I received a envelope in which your and that Jai Tanwar photos were present. I was very angry to see those photos that I haven't pick the calls up. I regret that and wanted to talk to you but then again when I was coming to talk to you I saw that Jai behind you. I was very furious and didn't dare to look back at you.

I always thought what was wrong in me that you choose him over me then Bhoomi too come back from London after completing her studies and dad introduced her to me. We started to hand out and soon dad said that he likes Bhoomi to be her daughter in law. And you also suddenly started to act like bitch and I thought you were doing all this to go to him. That's why I am saying sorry because after that I had ignored you. I am really sorry." I said and she was blank. I looked in her eyes. But they were containing nothing. Her eyes were emotionless.

"You know what?" She said and I looked at her. "I thought you were tired of me and why not. I am such a book warm who just love her own world and didn't dream anyone to enter in it. But you had broken that shell long long ago. I found you and Bhoomi laughing and hanging out. Not one or two times but many times. Then I thought may be I wasn't perfect for you. So I started to act like a bitch so that we could have breakup and you go and a life with her." She said and a tear was on the edge to leave her eyes.

"So we both were on same boat?" I asked and she nodded and she wipe that tear.

"We were. Now our path has changed. Our path has changed and we had too changed. I guess we should forgot that 3 years relationship cause after 2 weeks you will be her. And only her." She said and I was kind of tensed after listening that. Even through I know that we are now destined to be somewhere else. I sighed.

"Yeah you are right. I guess that we should forgot that. But it will not be easy for me. The 3 years relationship can't be vanished in just 3 days, 3 weeks, 3 months, 3 years or even 3 decade. It does take time. Cause you still have a big part. Maybe Bhoomi will be my wife but my heart can't beat for her like it beat for you." I said and make her hand place on my heart. " feel it. It still beat crazily. It will beat like this only for 3 days, 3 weeks, 3 months, 3 years and 3 decades. If you would be with me." I said. Please say yes Vidhi and this marriage would not be done anymore.

"No this is not right at all. You are going to be a married person after two weeks. We should stop it. It was past and past can't come back in the life." She said and gone away from there and I was looking at her way only.
