Priya felt her heart break as ram cried and explained how he ended up being the father of the baby.
She parted from him and looked at him with teary eyes. His face was red with all the crying and his eyes continued to water....
"I'm so sorry Priya, I should've listened to you that night... I shouldn't have gone.." His voice was hoarse.
A tear slipped down her cheek as she looked at him with pain as he said "I swear it was a big mistake, I even asked aashna to abort but she ain't listening, she took advantage of me.."
More tears slipped down her cheeks. Her face was blank as she looked at him.
"Priya say something please.... I really don't want aashna in my life anymore but looks like she startegisee everything and now I'm... I'll never ever meet the child or you know give him anything in anyway..."
"No ram..." Priya mumbled shaking her head.
He frowned "Priya it's a mistake, rather it was a plan of Aashna... I'm not taking any responsibility of that child... only you matter to me and I.... I would have preferred a family with you rather than anyone else.."
Priya felt emotions clogging her throat at the moment.
"Priya?... Kiddo please don't leave me... I'll fucking break please priya..." Ram panicked when she started moving away from him.
He held her arm stopping her and knelt down to only hug her from her waist tightly "Priya, I don't want to lose you.... I swear I'll not let aashna give my name to the child... I'll make sure she doesn't do anything further....please don't leave me.... Please trust me kiddo I swear I don't remember anything.."
Priya tried to remove his grip on her but he wasn't ready to let her go.
"Ram..."
He looked up at her and she mumbled slowly "I need some space... I don't know what to say right now but please let me be.."
Ram losens his grip around her waist and she rushes out. Priya runs to the terrace and breaks down as she cries into her palms.
Ram on the other hand felt his heart rate picking up. He can't even imagine losing priya.
It was a sleepless night for them. Ram had the urge to go to her but he knew she needed space at the moment.
It was morning when he opens his eyes as he slept in a sitting position on the bed against the headrest.
The moment Priya came out after freshening up in a jean and short kurti he stood up quickly.
She looked at him and he rushed to her "Priya?"
"Priya..." He didn't have any words... he was looking around her eyes to find something, some assurance that she's not leaving him.
"I do trust you ram..." She whispered.
It was a shocker for him... but he whispered "You do?"
Priya slightly nodded and said "But I wish you had listened to me... I don't know why you so badly wanted to show some humanity that night...."
Ram looked down guilty and she mumbled "I trust you but I need some time... to understand things... and about the child, you should give him the love of a father, the child doesn't deserve your distance when he or she's not at any fault. Why do you want to punish an innocent child?"
Ram felt his eyes tear up and he nods "As you say kiddo, as you say... Thankyou for trusting me... I couldn't bear to lose you..."
"I should get going..." with that she turned around before Ram could hug her.
She started putting on minimal makeup while Ram glanced at her.
"I'll make it up to you priya" He said to which she stopped in the tracks but didn't respond.
Priya picked her purse and was about to leave the room when ram said "You won't leave me right?"
She turned from the door to look at him and shook her head slowly.
Ram gave her a small smile but she said "But how do I trust that you won't run back to her again if she ever calls you again?"
His smile fell "Priya, I promise I'll never do that again, I just... *sighs* I know I made a huge mistake and I've learnt my lesson. I'll not repeat it ever again... I want only you!"
Priya walks away and Ram felt a heaviness on his chest as he's not liking the chirpiness of his girl that's vanished since last night.
Aashna on the other hand announced it to her parents as well as Ram's parents who were shocked and angry on Ram to break Priya's heart.
Ram took a deep breath when he saw his mother calling him "Yes mom?"
"What the hell am I hearing ram? Aashna is pregnant with your child?" His mother yelled.
"Maa that woman drugged me and took advantage of me otherwise i can never cheat on priya... moreover we're talking about Aashna, I didn't even want to do anything with her.."
"Still you hurt Priya!" His mother said.
"Yes.... I know... I'll make it up to her.." Ram said as he halted the car infront of her cafe.
"What about this child now? Ram this is way too complicated... your dad is furious as well, he was about to reach your office but I've said him that I'll talk to you"
"Mom, I'll handle everything... please dad and you don't take any stress" He said as he came out of the car and closed the door with "Mom, I'll call you back, bye takecare" with that he disconnected and walked into the cafe.
But he got furious when a guy was leaning against the counter - smiling and gazing at priya who was behind the counter and doing some work.
