LIFE I CHOOSE

US

Happiness was what you would describe about Karan Luthra at that time. It was the happiest they've seen him and the family was confused. For someone who just had a fight with the woman he loves just a few hours back to be this smiling shocked them all aside from his mom. And even after announcing that he's going way for sometime all while smiling surprised them too. Mahesh asked if his son was fine.

"Yes, dad am fine, look you should all be happy that am actually happy today" Karan said.

"Its strange though because awhile ago, you were miserable when Preeta left this house and now your happy like nothing happened; what the hell is wrong with you? What's going on?" Rishabh asked worriedly.

"Nothing is wrong, am perfectly fine. And this has nothing to do with Preeta, I've decided to do what I should've done long ago" Karan lied.

"Which is?"

"Taking my life back and everything that I lost"

"What you lost?, what do mean?, if it's Preeta then she's here, why do you have to leave?" Sammy asked

But Karan didn't say anything anymore. He went to get his bag, bid farewell to his family, leaving them confused. Mahesh was looking at Rahki who hadn't said anything but he could see that she was knew and was hiding something. Rakhi and Karan spent a lot of time timing talking and no one from the family know what they were talking about. He wanted to know what's happening or better yet what they were talking about.

"Why has Karan left like that? And what did you two talk about?" Mahesh asked and that's when everyone turned to look at her waiting for her to answer.

But Rahki also stood her ground. Karan had trusted her with his secrets and she was gonna return the favour. She first kept quiet but after she said.

"It's nothing and besides he told you he needs time for himself so let it be, he's your son and you should trust him".

"No!, it can't be nothing; you and your son are hiding something or better yet up to something"

"Am sorry but whatever it is, it is his business and yes I know where is he going and why but am not telling any of you because he asked me not to say anything". She excused herself and left. Leaving them confused and unsatisfied.

Karan met with a friend who owns a helicopter. He wanted to reach there early. Perhaps earlier than Preeta who is driving her car and may reach in a few hours. He wants her to find him there and not come to a conclusion that he's following her even though that's exactly what he's doing.

Within an hour he had reached Lovania, he disguised himself because he didn't want people to recognize him so soon. He was here on a mission to win his baby doll back and not take selfies or sign autographs. He wanted to make this about her and not him. He was wearing pants , a dress shirt, a hat, shades and since the pandemic was still a scare he had his mask on so he couldn't think anyone would recognize him with it.

He's been to many places but he has never been to Lovania, he wondered how Preeta knew this place because despite it being far and very hilly, it was beautiful at the same time. With the quietness and fresh air it has, it brings a lot of peace and tranquillity that he needs right now. And he hopes this place can help amend his and Preeta's relationship. Its a special place and he hopes by the time he leaves this place; he will be with the love of his life, his babydoll.
Looking around the place, he realised there were quite a number of people he didn't think he would find in this place but again, it was the only Hotel in this area so of course it would have a lot of people.

"Hello sir, welcome to grandpix Hotel, how may I help you" asked the receptionist

"I don't have any reservations here but I want to spend a few days here"
