Betrayed, is all I feel right now. How could he complain to my dad like that? Am I some kind of fucking child that he needs to tattle on me to my dad?

All because of Rihaan, I have to meet with my other professor as well. Dad works in this hospital and of course he has privileges, but he shouldn't abuse them like this. This is clearly called abuse of power.

"Ayushi, whether you like it or not, you're not getting into any relationships until you have 'doctor' prefix before your name. And i want to meet you in my room. And you Aryan directly go to your room i clearly remember your parents meeting which will be conducted next week. I don't want any complaints." Then dad just left us alone with our food.

" Mom I'm going into the study room. I need to complete some homework. " Aryan said and left mom and me alone.

I glanced at mom, who looked towards dad and Aryan's direction before turning to me and asking, "What's wrong?"

"Mom, if you ask any professor about how your child is doing, no one will praise you if you're not a top student," I replied angrily, holding back my tears. What those professors must be thinking about me .

"I'm not asking about that. Do you like someone?" Mom asked, cupping my face.

I sniffled and nodded slowly. "I do, but he doesn't know. But how can dad talk to me like that? He's not understanding," I said as mom pulled me into a hug, kissing my hair.

"Finally, my daughter has someone. Tell me his name," she said.

I shook my head and went to my room. I didn't want to tell mom. I'm sure she would tell dad.

"Ayushi, I won't tell dad. Please tell me, I can't stand seeing you upset. I'll talk to your dad. I'm giving you permission to date. You can date anyone, but no physical relationships," mom said, out of breath. Did she run up the stairs?

"Mom, did you walk or run to my room?" I asked a little worried because mom got back pain a lot of the time. It's not good for her to run what if she fell down.

"Shh, let me catch my breath and start telling me everything. I've given you the permission you needed, and I'll talk to your dad. But my only condition is no physical relationships," she said, holding my hand tightly.

I nodded and hugged my sweet mom.

"Rihaan... He's my professor. He just became a professor this year. He's twenty-eight, " I whispered. Mom nodded and broke the hug.

" The photo, and I must say that there are various advantages and disadvantages to marrying a man with an age gap."

I nodded in agreement, as my own parents share a similar age gap, and I can clearly see the dynamics at play.

My father holds a dominant position in our household, but my mother is the one who has given him this power. And she clearly doesn't like being in charge. I appreciate the fact that I have never witnessed any arguments or fights between them. Even if sometimes mom gets upset then dad brings flowers or sweets for her there is no argument. He just acts like it's no one's mistake and will embrace mom.

I aspire to have a relationship as sweet as my parents'. I desire Rihaan. I am not willing to settle for anything less. He will either be my life partner, or I will remain single for the rest of my days.

"Show me the photo, Ayushi," my mother said, shaking me out of my reverie.

I took out my phone and displayed the picture of him that I had secretly taken.

As I leaned my head on my mother's shoulder, a small hand pushed me away.

"Don't hug my mumma," the little voice said.

"Your mumma? Really? You are adopted. I was the one who brought you home. You were crying near the Dustbin. I told mom and dad to bring this cat home. I didn't realize it was a human child," I teased.

"Mom, didi is bothering me," Aryan complained with his quivering lips, but I couldn't help but laugh. However, my laughter was cut short when my mother handed me the phone.

"He is quite handsome. I feel like I've seen him before, but I can't quite remember. You must be tired. Aryan, do you want to come with mumma? Let didi rest for a while," my mother said as Aryan jumped into her arms, wrapping his legs around her waist.

"Go meet your dad ," Mom instructed before closing the door.

" Shit now what " I mumble and left my bed.

I very slowly walk towards mom and dad's room. Hope mom didn't take Aryan to her room. I don't want to get scold in front of Aryan.

I directly enter in room forgetting to knock. But he didn't make any comment and Pointed me to sit in front of him. I look at side where Aryan and mom was sitting too.

" Dad let's close this topic. I'm sorry i will concentrate in class I swear. " I said before he can say anything.

" You have doctor's appointment tomorrow. Since you are past your menstruation date again. And I don't want any complain. " He said last line firmly. I nodded my head like a Robot which make him chuckle.

" My babe," He said and peck my forehead that mean I'm free to go.

I come back to my room and opened my phone's gallery and gazed at his handsome face, tracing my finger over his features.

I had made a fool of myself when I first met him, but it wasn't entirely my fault. It was just a bad day. I never enjoy doctor appointments, especially visits to the gynecologist at such a young age.

As my eyes grew heavy, I allowed them to close, knowing that in reality, I may not get to interact with him, but in my dreams, I can do anything I desire.
