Ujadi hui duniya ko tu
Abaad na kar,
behti hue lamho ko tu
yaad na kr,
ek qaid parinde ka hai
tumse yahi kehna
Mai bhool chuki hu 
udna...
Mujhe aazad na kar

Author's pov:

Viyaan approached Ashwin with a heavy heart, relaying the disappointing news from Dadu. Ashwin's frustration simmered beneath the surface, his jaw clenching as he absorbed the reality of the situation.

Viyaan: "Bhai, I'm sorry, but Dadu denied the request. He's adamant that you stay here."

The news hit Ashwin like a sledgehammer to the chest, leaving him reeling with disbelief and frustration. Viyaan's hesitant words hung in the air, the weight of Dadu's denial bearing down on them both like an oppressive force.

Viyaan's expression mirrored Ashwin's inner turmoil, a mixture of sympathy and helplessness etched across his features as he relayed the unwelcome news. Ashwin's mind raced with a whirlwind of emotions, each one more turbulent than the last.

As Viyaan left his side, Ashwin felt a surge of anger coursing through his veins, fueled by the injustice of it all. Without a second thought, he made a beeline for Dadu's study, his footsteps echoing in the empty corridors like thunderclaps.

With each step, Ashwin's resolve hardened, his mind consumed by a singular purpose: to confront Dadu and demand answers. As he reached the door to Dadu's study, he hesitated for a moment, steeling himself for the confrontation that lay ahead.

Without bothering to knock, Ashwin barged into the room, his demeanor tense and confrontational. Dadu looked up from his desk, his expression unreadable as Ashwin unleashed his pent-up frustration with blistering intensity.

"Dadu, do you even care about anything other than your own selfish desires?" Ashwin's voice cracked with raw emotion, his words dripping with bitterness and resentment. "I got married for the sake of this family, for the sake of this business, and what do I get in return? Nothing but disregard and disrespect!"

Dadu listened in silence, his face a mask of stoicism as Ashwin's tirade continued unabated. With each word, Ashwin's anger grew, his voice rising to a crescendo of frustration and indignation.

"I've sacrificed everything for this family, for your happiness," Ashwin spat, his voice trembling with suppressed fury. "And what do I get in return? Nothing but rejection and indifference! Well, I've had enough!"

His words echoed off the walls of the study, the tension in the room palpable as Ashwin made his grievances known. Dadu remained silent, his gaze fixed on Ashwin with a mix of sadness and anger.

But Ashwin was undeterred, his resolve unshakeable as he made his intentions clear.

"I'm leaving for London tomorrow, Dadu, whether you approve or not," Ashwin declared defiantly, his voice ringing with determination. "Nothing will stand in my way."

With that final proclamation, Ashwin turned on his heel and stormed out of the room, leaving behind a stunned silence in his wake. The weight of his decision hung heavy on his shoulders as he made his way back to his room, the echoes of his confrontation with Dadu reverberating in his mind.

As he began to pack his belongings in preparation for his departure, Ashwin felt a sense of liberation wash over him. For the first time in what felt like an eternity, he felt free from the shackles of duty and obligation, ready to forge his own path on his own terms.
