Once I started feeling too cold we both went inside and without speaking anything we went inside our room.I went into washroom and when I came out he was already lying on his side of bed doing something with his phone.

I went and slept in my side of bed and slowly closed my eyes and I slept off.After some time I felt his hands on my waist and he moved little close to me and hugged me tightly.

I felt my stomach twisting a little because of excitement but didn't move as I was feeling embarrassed and excited at the same time.He didn't move back but placing his head on my back and tightening his grip around my waist he stayed like that for some time.

After sometime I felt his body weight on me and his breathing increased stating that he went into deep sleep.My heart beat decreased and now it was stable.I slowly closed my open eyes and started to sleep and after some time I slept off.

Morning I woke up startled by his voice deep and loud saying "Princess wake up.We have to go to Bangalore.Wake up please."

I sat bolted up and he was roaming all over the room packing his and my clothes and when he saw me waking up he came near me and holding my hands he said "Princess.I don't know how to say this.But trust me It is tearing me into pieces."

I was shocked and fear crept all over my heart.My mind is thinking all the worst scenarios possible and with terror in my voice I said "You are scaring me Vikranth.What happened?"

"I will tell princess.Please go and get ready.We have a flight to catch in 2 hours." He said trying to make me stand and go to washroom.

"No no I can't.Tell me first what happened.Dad..!?Dad Is fine right?I want to talk to him first." I said turning to other side and searching for my phone on the table beside my bed.

He snatched my phone from my hand and hugged me tight and said "Sorry princess.I don't want to tell you like this.But please don't make things harder.He will be fine.Treatment is going on.Please get fresh and come with me."

I tried pulling away from his hug but he is stronger than me and he is not allowing me to do so.With tears filling completely in my eyes I bursted into tears and tried to speak with my voice breaking.

"What treatment?What happened to him?Please Vikranth.I need more details.Please." I pleaded him still hugging him tight.

He broke our hug and holding my face in between his hands he said with care and concern in his eyes "He is admitted in hospital for cancer princess.Remember I went to meet my friend last week.Its him.I am sorry for hiding this but he didn't want us to tell you about his health."

I was shattered now.My dad was in hospital and I didn't even doubt about that.I started crying hard and he hugged me tight again."Shh.Calm down princess.Nothing will happen.Go and get ready.We will leave now."

I immediately jolted up and went to washroom.I don't know how I got fresh but I came out as soon as possible.He is waiting for me outside and we went down.Aunt came and hugged me as soon as she saw me.I started crying again.

"Don't cry Amy.He will be alright.Trust me."Saying so she started crying herself.Vikky came and consoled both of us.We went and got inside the car and the journey to airport seemed like a hell for me.

I kept crying the entire time placing my head on Vikky's shoulder and Vikky kept on patting my head trying to stop my crying.

After reaching airport and going through the formalities we boarded flight and sat in my seat.I tried my level best to maintain my composure.I don't want to create scene in flight by crying here.

Vikky sat beside me and aunt and uncle sat behind us.Kavya didn't come as she has exams and she can't miss them.I suddenly turned towards Vikky and asked "What about my college?" With traces of tears in my eyes.

He said holding my hand "I have already messaged Preethi.She will take care of that.Dont worry."

I nodded and yes I don't have to worry about that as I have many other things to worry about in this 3 hour long journey.I have never imagined that going from Delhi to my native place Bangalore will be this much difficult.

When I am fully packed with those thoughts I felt Vikky's hand tightening on my hand and I turned in his direction and looked into his face.

"You are okay princess?" He asked and I can sense the care and concern in his voice.

"From when did you know this and from when was he suffering alone with cancer?" I asked trying to form voice as my throat dried away and I can sense the pain in my voice and in my eyes.

"The day when I came to your home.When they told us about our marriage I was not okay with that.Then my mom and your father talked with me and then he told me the reason for this marriage.He don't want you to see him suffering during his treatment princess.He loves you so much." He said holding my head with his hand and pulling me into a hug.

So that is why he forced me to marry in such a short notice.That is the reason for all this and I have never imagined this sudden turn of events.He thought about me and my happiness.He wanted me to be safe and secure.

"I want to see him.I want to see him well and healthy again.I don't want him to be in hospital." I said out thinking those same words in my mind.

"You will see him healthy and happy again princess.You should be strong now.It will break his heart if he sees you crying like this." He said and I nodded.

"This is the secret about which you are talking with me yesterday right?This is the reason you are comforting and hugging Meghna?She knows all this?" I asked not knowing why I am thinking about all this nonsense.

"Yes I told her that day and she started crying feeling sorry for you.But just try to forget about everything for some time and sleep princess.I know you will not get sleep once we reach there." He said trying to hush me and patting my shoulder trying to make me sleep.

I tried closing my eyes but all these days and the time when my dad came and asked me to marry him flashed in front of my eyes.This is the reason and biggest secret of my life and my marriage.I have these many people around me who tried a lot to hide this from me and try to keep me happy always.

Vikky, aunt,uncle,dad,bhavs and now Meghna... Everyone knows but they didn't reveal anything to me and they tried keeping me happy in the most possible way for them.I sure am blessed to have all of these people in my life.Thinking so I closed my eyes and dozed off because of my tired eyes.
