After having breakfast sameer and Kritika stood up and went to do their respective chores. Karan was also about to go to his personal office bit preeta held his wrist causing him to halt in his steps but he dared not look back
Preeta(sadly): So you won't even look at me
Karan: What's the use when still you don't trust me
Preeta: Karan you know that I trust you the most
Karan: You know what preeta...when you are done with all you have to do you can come to my office and yeah change into something appropriate for where we are going
Preeta: You know that in front of Sammy and Kritu I am full time traditional
Karan: Are you either of their wife?
Preeta: Will you look at me please?
Karan: You have until tonight otherwise trust me you don't want another shade of me you have never seen
Preeta: Don't worry you will get all your answers but I swear after this you will have to deal with whatever I tell you
Karan: We will see....now go change while I do the same we really don't have that much of time
Preeta: Its ok if you don't want to look at me but I want to see how long you can hold yourself from looking at me
Karan knew that she was saying the truth because him living a day or 5 hours without seeing her face al ways felt like a millennium for him. He slowly turned around to see her with moist eyes
Karan: Why dont you trust me?
Preeta: I do but there is a part of my past darker than I want to talk of
Karan: Preeta we have known each other since when.........even our own parents never knew we met before....I know something happened mid way past school years
Preeta: If you know something happened then I bet you know what happened then
Karan: No i don't.....I tried finding out but it's a dead end....you know preeta if you really don't trust me....why stay in this relationship......why stay in a marriage with no trust.......I know you love me....but today you hurt me preeta.....(tearfully)..you really did
Preeta: I didn't mean to karan...you know that
Karan: Preeta unlike you I am adopted.....u never knew my parents...I only see them in pictures.....I made my uncle and aunt my parents thinking I belonged......but today I feel like an orphan....funny part...in this marriage.....I am the marriage certificate and I feel you signed with a pencil
Preeta: Karann don't say that you know that I am always there for you...I have always been there
Karan: You have been there preeta not anymore....after whatever happened you changed
Preeta: I think we need to discuss this in your office....the walls have ears
Karan: No need....you go change I will meet you downstairs
Preeta(holding his hand): I wasn't asking your opinion
Saying that she dragged him to his personal o ffice
Upon reaching she closed the door and and activated the soundproof and deactivated any sort of bugs that might have been in the room
Finishing with the technicals she turned back to see him with his head hung low tears flowing like a river in his eyes.
Knowing he was an orphan she knew that no matter how much his uncle and aunt loved him....He still craved for his parents....craved their love....their attention.....just their mere presence in his life
