The haldi and sangeet functions went perfectly today. Also, Aarvi was shocked.

"Rehan, what are you doing here?"

"Aarvi, see, I am madly in love with you. I will die without you. For once, think about me. Also, the vow your grandfather and father have given you will destroy three lives. Just for once, talk to him about me."

"No, Rehan, he won't agree to this."

"You know what, Aarvi, your Bade Papa wants to break your dreams, and you are happily sacrificing your dreams."

"Rehan, family is more important than dreams."

"Aarvi, beta, I know family is important, but the person you love is Rehan, not Avi. You are going to destroy his life as well."

"But, Mom, for once, see things from my perspective. If I back out now, everyone will blame Papa and Bade Papa. The reputation they earned over so many years will just vanish in a few seconds. How can..."

"But, Aarvi, what will you gain from this marriage? Nothing. You will just get pain and nothing else."

"Please, all of you, leave from here. I am having a very bad headache." As she opens her eyes, she sees no one.

It was a bad dream.

But wasn't it real, Aarvi?

Who are you and why are you looking just like me?

Because I am you, only the one whom you haven't recognized yet.

But what are you doing here?

All the dreams which you saw, I also saw. Wasn't it true that by marrying Avi, you will only get pain?

But what about the vow that Bade Papa had given to me?

Sometimes people give vows to make you do the work they want.

But tomorrow is the marriage. What will I do, and how will I convince Avi that I don't love him?

Meet him once. I think he will surely hear your point and will think about it.

Ok, just for once, for myself, I will call him.

Aarvi calls Avi.

Avi, can we meet?

But Aarvi, at this time, you know we are getting married tomorrow. You can meet me every day after that.

Avi, please. I am not in the mood for jokes. Please, can we meet at XYZ Cafe?

Ok, I am coming, ma'am.

Aarvi was waiting for Avi at the cafe.

Where is he, and what should I do now? Am I doing right or not?

After 15 minutes, Avi arrived.

"Aarvi, you called me. What happened? Is it something urgent?"

"It is very, very urgent. Please sit and think about it for once. What am I saying?"

"Ok, say."

"Avi, I don't love you, and I can't go through with this marriage."

"But why, Aarvi? What's the problem? You attended all the functions and seemed very happy. Then what happened suddenly that you are backing off?"

"Because, Avi, I wasn't gathering the courage to speak, but today I will tell you the truth why I agreed to this marriage."

"What is the truth? Tell me. And what will I say to my parents, Aarvi?"

"I am really sorry, Avi. I know it's all my fault. But if I were to marry, it would be the biggest mistake of my life as it will destroy your life, mine, and Rehan's life."

"Who is Rehan, and how is he related?"

"I love him, Avi, and he loves me. But Bade Papa gave me his vow to marry you. But I can't break the vow also because I have to marry one of you until Bade Papa backs off. So, I am requesting you."

Aarvi, I can't promise you anything. If I come tomorrow, you will become my wife, or else you will become Rehan's wife. But I will try my best for you to become Rehan's wife.

Thank you so much, Avi. I know there will be a girl who will be the best for you. I don't deserve such a beautiful soul like you.

Ok, but can we at least be friends now?

No, we aren't friends.

But why, Aarvi?

Because we are best friends. Now you are awesome. Thank you so much, Avi.

Ok, now I am leaving.
