As soon as she came out of the ICU she pondered about the events occurred in this hour. Whatever sparks flew between her and Arjun were definitely making her feel stupid. She ran away from him 2 years back so that he will not interfere in her life again and here he is holding her hand and thanking her making her think why the hell she hate such a lovely person... Hang on! Lovely? From where does this idea of Dr. Arjun Singhania being lovely dropped in my mind. She thought, lack of sleep had definitely proven to be adverse for her otherwise she wouldn't sound so dreamy. But even if she is dreamy not in any dreams of her Arjun could be lovely but how the hell she thought it. Her head was hurting but she needs to mend the damage caused by the stupid act of both of them. RP Dad of hers has seen both of them hand in hand and she was not giving him any chance to form illusions in his mind. The pieces must be put to place. Leaving her dilemma about Arjun aside she decided to clear the facts with RP first She was nervous as to what she was going to say but confident enough that her Dad was much her friend than uncle.

*Knock Knock*

"May I come in?" Arohi slowly pushed the door for permission.

"Come in." RP said smoothly. His voice made Arohi realize that she is now doing something evil. She is going to kill the excitement her beloved Dad has any moment.

"Can you be my Dad and not Dr. Singhania for a while Dr.?" Arohi asked with a little worried expression which she didn't want to hide.

"Yes sure Arohi." RP said in the same excitement still not giving attention to Arohi's expression.

"Dad Me and Parth are getting engaged day after on Arjun's birthday." Arohi said worried.

All of a sudden RP's ecstatic face dropped down like he is been hit. All this while he knew that Parth has proposed Arohi because Arohi's nature was to never hide anything from her parents(except whatever happens between her and Arjun as she feels it is purely personal) and she was open enough to share about Parth's proposal. Parth was a settled man and good looking too but somehow RP felt that Arohi was rushing into this relationship. He never commented on the fact that personally he didn't like Parth much as same as Ashutosh but Arohi seemed comfortable with him. Though he knew that she isn't intense about him that left some hope for his dream for Arjun and Arohi. Though he knew his son was as much of a nut case as Arohi is but he felt they somehow complete each other. No one knew what makes them say so but everyone in the house wanted them together except them. They fight but they were the ones who somehow stood by each other every time the trouble rises. RP had his hopes high when Arohi told him that though Parth proposed she isn't going to do proper engagement until Arjun comes back as she wanted her entire family for that occasion and in this case Arjun was not an exception. She even refused to wear the ring before proper engagement. But now it was clear that Arohi was in no mood to give a thought to Arjun. She didn't hate him but there was indeed something that was making her avoid Arjun and RP didn't know that. He thought asking to Rashi a lot of times but then he left the thought as it will be an interference.

Arohi saw her Dad drop down to despair. That was the worst feeling, she really wanted to make her Dad happy but this was one thing she couldn't do. She hated Arjun and could have married him to make his life hell but she could never see her RP Dad and Kumud mom in pain if she troubled Arjun it will be lifetime trouble for his parents she knew it very well so before they drown into lifetime misery she wanted to spare them. She loved them a lot and her hate for Arjun was not bigger than her love for his parents.

"Dad are you alright?" Arohi said gaining strength.

"Yes Arohi. Have you told your papa?" RP spoke with all the energy he has. He can't make her daughter suffer for his dream.

"I was supposed to tell you today but Arjun's accident was a sudden shock I was waiting for tomorrow morning but after what you saw in the ICU I thought things needs to be cleared." Arohi said calmly this time she was not hesitant.

I HATE YOU BUT...🩺Where stories live. Discover now
