The sunlight peeks through my curtains. I turn around and see the most magnificent sight of the world.
" Good Morning , Sid." Said Payal's soft voice.
" Good Morning! Sweetheart. " I said.
" Will you get me back to my home? I look like Effie Trinket right now." She smiled and said.
" Nope my Catnip ! You're the Girl on Fire baby. " I said winking at her.
" Gosh ! If you keep on smiling like this and saying such stuff, I bet, I'm gonna fall really hard for you. " she said as she sat straight on the bed , her legs crossed Indian style .
"I'll be there to catch you." I said as I got up from the bed and grabbed my car keys.
" Let's go. " I said to her.
She sprang up from the bed and got ready to go.
" I'll return your clothes later. " She said.
I nodded and then I dropped her off at her place .
On my way to my estate, I gave a quick call to Jai and Daisy.
I also ask to send Zeus aka Arman to my meeting room.
Jai and Daisy seem a bit worried about what's wrong as I set my feet in my meeting room, with a tensed up expression , both of them are seated together , hand in hand on the titanium white couch.
"What's the matter Sid ?" Asked Jai.
A knock was heard on the door of my meeting room.
" Come in. " I said.
Arman Thappar aka Zeus entered the room.
" Arman !" Said Jai.
" Jai. " Said Arman.
"So this is the problem. " I muttered.
" What are you doing here? " Asked Jai.
" Daisy was the one who asked me to come here ! I'm Zeus ! " Said Arman.
" Daisy are you Crazy? ?" Shouted Jai.
" I didn't know he was Zeus. " Daisy defended herself.
" Yea. I swear , we didn't know. " I agreed.
" Now what ? What do we do about this Cocksucker ??" Said Jai.
Thankfully my office was soundproof, otherwise my parents wouldn't have appreciated the term used by Jai.
" Mind your language. " Said Arman.
" Mind my language ?" Asked Jai furiously and before any of us knew what happened , Jai was punching Arman's face .
I sprang up and pushed myself between them , got hit in my chest and stopped Jai from punching.
" For once Jai ! Listen to me ! All of this doesn't leave a difference between you and him. He hurt her silently , you're hurting him violently." I explained Jai.
Poor Daisy was still recovering from the shock.
" I don't get it ! Why are you acting soo mean !? " asked Arman.
" You don't get it ? You WON'T get it ! Asshole ! " Said Jai.
Daisy got up from the couch and shouted ! Shit ! I didn't expect that.
" Listen ! I don't care what you guys talk to eachother ! But I'm giving you both Twenty minutes ! Twenty minutes and I want this situation sorted out ! It's our wedding ! And You guys ! Are fighting like DOGS ! You guys are brothers from an other mother ! " Shouted Daisy.
" Yep . And Payal doesn't know he's here." I said.
" You did good a job by not telling her." Said Jai.
He then turned towards Arman and said , " It's better if she doesn't know he's here "
"Why ? " asked Arman.
" Because I don't want to loose her again. Call me mean or selfish but if she sees you , something will surely go wrong. She won't be fine. She's really fragile , emotionally. " Said Jai.
" But you can't decide that Jai , if she can meet him or not , it's upto her and him. " I said in a low yet audible voice.
" You want him to meet her ?? He'll shatter her into a million pieces and go back in a month and will never ever come back !" Said Jai.
" I didn't leave India to hurt you guys. I just went to build my future. " Said Arman.
" Yeah. To build your future ! If you didn't want to hurt us , you'd have told us that you were leaving. " Said Jai.
" I'm sorry. " Said Arman.
" You knew right ? Payal had feelings for you ?" I asked.
" Yep. But I was a bit confused. And we were young. I didn't know what to do ! And there was Chavi too !" Said Arman.
" Yeah ! Chavi ! That egoistic ho ! You got married to her right ?" Asked Jai.
" One , she's not a ho , two I'm not married to her . " Said Arman .
" Guys ! Call truce ! Shake hands ! Hug eachother ! Forgiveness is the key to happiness !" Said Daisy.
" Sorry." Said Arman.
" Sorry " Said Jai.
They both hugged eachother.
" Why can't I meet Payal ?" Asked Arman.
Then all three of us explained him what had happened to Payal and Jai after Arman left India without telling them.
He was quite shocked and sorry for what he'd done.
He also revealed a shocking reality of his life too.
Chavi , had left him for a British guy after getting pregnant at the age of 20. But then she again came back to him as the British guy had physically abused her , and now he supported both Chavi and her daughter. Arman and Chavi weren't married. But he didn't tell anyone that Chavi's daughter, Ria was an accident , he preferred to call her his own daughter.
That seemed huge hearted of him.
After a lot of discussion , and peaceful talks , which also involved us having breakfast , we arrived to a decision that Payal could meet Arman.
I was happy with the decision , it did not bother me , because , all that mattered was , Payal to be happy.
In our lives we leave many people scarred , and the ones who we scar are the ones closest to our heart.
And the crazy part is , we can't forget them nor forgive them , we're always in a constant dilemma .
The only thing our heart keeps on saying is , give them one last chance.
With some people we even know that they're gonna blow up that one last chance given to them , but still we can't just let it go.
I , don't even know Arman properly , and I was willing to count on him just for Payal's happiness.
It's not a sacrifice or something , you just do little things for the people you love the most.
After we had our breakfast we headed to my meeting room again to decide the pastries required for the wedding.
Daisy and Arman were discussing the various types of delicacies that could be served while Jai was talking to the chefs in his hotel and making arrangements for Arman.
The bell in my meeting room rang and I got up to get the door.
Fuck Shits !
