MAYA

part 1

Dev wasn't in the best mood. Matter fact, he was irritated. His reason happen to be right in front of him playing  with his daughter. He saw Sona running from jatin and his daughter laughing  along with them.

A stranger passing by stops and comment " they look like a happy family " he says unaware of Dev squeezing the coke he was drinking.

Dev walk away from the scene when his phone started ringing.  He check to see his mom calling. " mam"

" Dev, good news, I found  you a good proposal "

" mam,  I already told you I'm  not ready to marriage. My main focus is soha"

Ishwari frown at that " how long will you punish your mother. I just want what's best for you, but how can I see you happy if all you do is chase after that women"

Dev sigh " mam, it's not like that"

" you can't fool me Dev, I know you want to get back with Sona and become  a family"

Dev staid quiet. He was about to say something,  when his phone started acting up. He look at it and tried saying hello again, but the reception  was bad. He look one last time at Sona and soha, before  moving to get a better  Reception.

On the other hand,  Ishwari kept  calling  Dev name. She hung up when he stop  replying. She look at the family before apologizing. She told them,  Dev decline the offer.

The father confuse says  " how can he when he hasn't even seen my daughter "

" I understand   that, but my sons answer is final".

The girl frown, her mother says  " you told us you would give my daughter  a one on one time with your son"

Ishwari apologized once more. but her father was angry. " I shouldn't have expected much from your son. I'm  glad we now know your son character.  My daughter is too good for him."

Ishwari had enough " hold your tongue  Mr. Chapel.  My son is a top notch  business Tycoon. He has money, brains  and looks. You say your daughter  is too good.  Exactly how? She's just a nobody,  living of her parents.  So what exactly is good about her. "

" HOW  DARE You!" Her mother says

Ishwari  calm,  smirk " yes how dare I"

The girl father grab her. He as about to leave  when he turn and ask Ishwari  why she pick his daughter if she was a nobody. 

" because she looks easy" she says

The father glare at her. He told her she will one day meet her match, he says he hope she's even worse than her so that way she can take her son away from her. Ishwari  laughs " I will wait for that day"

The girl mother  says " I hope you know how it truly feels to be insulted and disappointed "

Ishwari watch them leave before rubbing her head. " my son is gonna be the death of me " she says

Elsewhere,

Dev far from his family stop at a near rock. He cursed when he realize his mom hang up. He sigh, and turn to leave when he spotted blood. Surprise, he followed it. He walk towards the rock and stop. Dev eyes widen.

Their in front of him, was a girl.  She was lying  in the sand,  with her hair clinging  to her. But what shock him was the blood on her forehead. " who is she? How did she get that wound " he asks.
