Strangers and Imlie

Life Changing Talk

At the court, Imlie and the gang had already arrived waiting for Mr Tripathi to arrive so they can start roasting him. 

Aditya arrived also with his gang of family members. 

Aditya POV.

As I walked inside the court grounds  I suddenly had feeling of relief, I realized that what I had for Imlie wasn't love or any sort of romantic endeavors, what I had was an unwanted sense of responsibility towards her, if she had cried and begged me to make things alright I would have scummed to it. 

You know why?

Because I have to do what is right.

Since I brought Imlie away from Pagdandiya then I have to take her responsibility. 

That's all she is. 

But to say I was shocked was an understatement when I received her message to meet in court to finalize our divorce proceedings. 

I am glad that she took this step. 

We were both bound in a relation that was not out choice in the first place. 

I got a reality check when I realized that I was jealous of her successful article that she completed without my help. 

I realized I was replaceable in her life. 

But for Malini my love of many years, I was irreplaceable. 

I felt loved when I am in her presence. 

I felt that she needed me in her life to complete it.

This is my love's language. 

Being needed is what makes me feel that I am loved by the other party.

Imlie, she on the other hand didn't need me.

She found her happiness in everything and everyone.

I was just a replacable part of her life.

That's why when I saw the CEO and Imlie together I thought, I am again not needed here.

Anyone can help her and she would be happy. 

That's why I want to be free. 

I want to be with Malini, this time without any misunderstandings, that's why I took everyone in the family for this divorce, because more than me, they needed the reality check especially my mother.

I was looking around to see if I can spot her and there she was, today she looked different, good different that is. 

As always I saw her with out CEO Aryan Singh Rathore, along with a few others that I didn't recognize. 

See this is what I was saying, she doesn't need me, she was chattering with one of the ladies and smiling gently at what the lady has whispered.

Imlie is one strong individual, she needs someone who can stay next to her, I know she is meant to fly has our CEO said, but I don't need that kind of partner for me.

I want my partner to see me as the sky.

I want them to see me as an important part of them.

Imlie doesn't she has ambitions, that is a good thing.

I want a house wife which Malini is ready to give to me. 

Imlie can never be a house wife, I can never give Imlie the sky to freely fly.

I start walking up to her group along with my family. 

Author POV.

"Hello, Imlie, I see that you have brought witnesses" Aditya said calmly.
