Vardhan pov-

I just dropped Akshita, Vaani  at her home and left from the outside only as I was not interested in meeting tones of her relatives and I had an important meeting to attend.

One of the reason for not going inside was that she didn't picked up my calls last night. She was the one who cried and complained about the lack of communication and what not and now she is doing this.

I think she has started to take me lightly as I let her do and say things. I just don't want to meet her because I know she will end up crying after the interaction.

If I would say something she will get hurt and then will start with her counseling session on marriage , relationship and how I am not providing her bare minimum and she was the one bearing the burden alone and all those heavy emotional dialogue and will make me feel guilty.
So it's better to just avoid her for time being .

It was late in afternoon when I made a call to Akshita to ask her to be ready as I will come to pick them up in an hour or so as we have to be back home before night.

But she told me that Sandhya looked dull and upset. I didn't do anything this time, infact she was the one who ignored my calls last night .

As I was waiting for Akshita and Vaani to come , Vinod uncle emerged out the home with some other males and approached me .

I too came out of the car and greeted him .
He became very adamant and asked me to come inside and atleast have a tea .
I tried to reason out but he didn't listened to me and the others relatives were insisting too .

I gave in and walked in with them .
The house was full of people and as soon as I stepped in I was surrounded by all of them .

They started greeting me and introducing themselves irritating me as I was not at all interested in knowing who the hell they are and what relation they share with Sandhya and her family.

Some of her uncles were inquiring me about Hotels and why I didn't join my family business.

Now I have to justify them why I did what I did . Who they think they are to ask me all this but before I lose my cool Vinod uncle took over the situation and I sighed.

I better ignore them because if I will say something they will surely feel insulated and things will reach to my father and he will again lecture me about my behaviour and attitude.

He had strictly warned to behave well while coming here .
All her female cousins came along with Akshita and Shrishti and asking me to come with them .

What I got my self into ....I sighed in frustration.
I unwantedly followed them and they took me to her room where she was chatting with Vaani sitting on her bed .

She got up surprised and shocked seeing me there and I shot her a look and she immediately looked away.
Her cousin was passing some comments and she was blushing but as Akshita mentioned she looked pale and dull.

Her eyes were a bit puffy too with dark circles,seems like madam did her favourite part time job of crying last night .

I sat there listening to the nonsense they all were speaking. I signed her to ask all of them to shut up and she nodded lightly but her cousins hooted seeing our little interaction.

Let's leave the couple alone for some guys...One of them said and other laughed but thankfully they left the room leaving me and her alone .

She remained seated on her spot looking at the floor as it was the most interesting thing in the world.

What is with this shitty attitude of your Haan ....I snapped at her towering her .
She looked up at me for a moment but said nothing making me more mad.

I pulled her up grabbing her arm and made her look into my eyes holding her chin .
Don't test my Patience and stop playing mute . Answer me when I ask you something....I gritted out and her eyes became moist instantly.

I left her and turned away trying to get a hold over myself.
I took some deep breaths and faced her again to find her sobbing silently.
Now I think something is seriously wrong with her .

Kya hua hai ...I asked calmly standing in front of her and her cries became louder .
Mujhe cheeje Bina bataye samjh nahi aati hai . You need to tell me what's wrong ...I asked and she wailied keeping her head on my chest .

I wrapped my arms around her pulling her closer and caressed her hair to comfort her a little.
This was the first time I was doing something like this .

I am really bad at consoling a crying women . She clutched my shirt tightly burring herself more into my arms and I was feeling protective for her out of nowhere .

Will you tell me now ......kyu roo rahi ho itna ...I asked once she calmed down a little but still was clinging to me and I let her be .

Papa has taken a l_lone for the w_wedding ...he don't want anyone to taunt me about the class diffrence we have . He is d_doing things beyond his limits for me ....she somehow completed her sentence and cried out bitterly again .

Then tell your father that he won't be able to cover the class diffrence  even if he sells himself....I said and she parted away from the hug  and looked at me in utter  shock ...
