Chapter 11: STOP BLAMING YOURSELF

Chapter 11: Stop blaming yourself

Since Atharv got appointment with Star group of investments he was determined to utilize it very wisely. He wanted to correct all the mistakes which he had made by trusting someone very foolishly. He wanted to make his parents to be proud of him not to pity him and want to show those so called relatives what he is capable off.

His grandpa never trusted Priya and Rajesh always asked him to be careful and wise but never took his advice seriously because I was so blindly trusting my friends.

While Atharv was preparing the proposal for Star group going through every single detail to make sure nothing goes wrong. Because he can`t afford any minor mistakes. Meanwhile he gets call from his mom...

Hey mom.

Hello Atharv, how are you my son?

I`m fine mom.

When are you coming home son? Don't even miss us.

Mom! Please not now.

Atharv why are you doing this to yourself?Drinking doesn't solves problem son.

I know mom but without it I can`t even sleep, but I`m trying mom. I`m trying to make you, dad, grandpa and Divya to be proud of me again. I can`t see the disappointment look of guys.

Atharv voice was merely a whisper which showed how much broken and venerable he was. Knowing how sad her son was tears welled up in eyes of his mom...
