A Boy That Was Never Mine

💔

Aansh Pov:

As I finally arrived at Vianna's office, exhausted from a gruelling week, I was taken aback by her radiant beauty. Her elegant kurta accentuated her porcelain skin, and her eyes sparkled like diamonds, yet I sensed a deep pain lurking beneath her serene facade. She mentioned a doctor's appointment, and we decided to accompany her, with Ridham unusually clingy, refusing to leave her side. I suppressed my irritation, acknowledging that he would be a source of comfort for her after I was gone.

As we sat together, Reha's persistent calls disrupted our moment, and I lied about being with a client, aware of her disapproval of my lingering feelings for Vianna. Vianna's words pierced my heart as she expressed her readiness for us, and I fought the urge to embrace her and urge her to escape with me. But I remained silent, knowing that my departure would only bring her pain.

The inevitable calls from my grandfather and father interrupted our time together, and I was forced to leave Vianna, her eyes brimming with tears. As I arrived home, I was met with a shocking scene: my family and Reha's family, all dressed up, awaiting the Roka ceremony. My mother and aunt teased me, oblivious to my turmoil. I confessed to my father that I couldn't marry Reha, revealing my love for Vianna and the events of the past year. His response was a stinging slap, followed by an ultimatum: marry Reha for the family's sake or leave forever.

Reha and Aansh's roka ceremony was quite an eventful affair! Aansh, in an attempt to ditch Vianna, ended up getting hurt. Meanwhile, Reha was beaming with joy, looking as happy as someone who just won a trophy. The ceremony had its fair share of drama and emotions, making it a memorable day for everyone involved.

In the midst of the drama, I relented, and the ceremony proceeded. I later confronted Reha, making it clear that our marriage was a mere business arrangement, and she should never expect love from me. Her tears fell on deaf ears as I wrote a heartfelt letter to Vianna, my emotions raw and unbridled. With a forced smile, I left my home, unaware of the impending marriage preparations that would soon engulf me.
