Part 74 (Last Part)

"You are a gentleman Aman. I like you so much but I don't want to marry you" she said smiling, wiping his smile away.

"But why?" Aman asked shockingly because this was not what he expected.

Before Anjali answered him,

"Do you think I won't be a good father to Shali?" Aman asked disappointedly.

Anjali rolled her eyes.

"Certainly not... I have no doubt you will fulfill a father's place" she said looking at Shali.

"Then what stops you from marrying me?"

"A marriage has many aspects, Aman. I don't have such an idea to get second marriage in my mind, Aman. I never saw you in that way. You are my friend. I want you to be my friend forever."

"But, I love you from our school days. You do know that"

"We were kids that time Aman. Maybe, if your love had clicked at that time, we might have been an understanding couple by now. But it did not write in our destiny. So, I don't want to think about it anymore"

"But, we still have a chance..."

"I have lost hope in weddings"

"Don't you want an aidance? Could you be alone for your whole life?"

"Can't I be alone? Why should a woman always be hanging on someone? Can't she stand for herself? Can't a woman be courageous?"

"Don't you trust me?"

"It's different... I trusted a man closing my eyes. It does not mean I won't trust anyone further. I do. It does not mean I should marry you."

"I can't understand your logic, Anju..."

"I am not against remarriage. But, I don't want to do it. This world is not a promising one Aman. I would like to be an example to such women who were deceived by their husbands. Of course, I got you. How many women will get such a chance? Why would women always be dependent? Can't they build their path?"

"It's not that easy to stand alone, Anju..."

"Then help me to stand... as a friend, give your shoulder. Be an example that a man can be a good friend to a helpless woman. You have life, Aman. You will get a nice girl. I want you in my life as a friend. The husband segment of my life is already ended up. I don't want to start it again. You are an understanding man. I hope you understand...!"

"This is what your conclusion is?"

"Yes... But, I'm the one who will be your PR and will spread your fame as much as possible. No modification in it" she chuckled.

Aman chuckled painfully. Anjali left the place. Aman was looking at her with ten-folded respect. He remembered a famous quote,

Behind every successful woman is, HERSELF...!

Not only Arnav and Khushi but also all Aman's friends were upset about Anjali's decision. Though they were upset they respected Anjali's decision. But Arnav didn't agree when Anjali told him about going back to her house. They got back to RM after finishing the reception.

RM

"The reception held very well... Hai na Nani?" Anjali said.

"Yes... It finished smoothly. I thought Amrita or Damadji will create a scene. Thank god, nothing took place like that"

"Actually, I want to talk about something with you" Anjali commenced slowly.

Arnav and Khushi glimpsed at each other.
