ISHQ BULAVA : CALL OF LOVE [Wattys2018] [ILAs 2018]

Chapter Twenty Three

Vaidehi was sitting at her vanity table, looking at the mirror.

All the last memories of Abhi were flashing in her mind as she closed her eyes and tears started to drip down.

"What is the fucking pleasure that you are getting by forcing yourself in this marriage that you don't want?" Came the stern voice of D'mitra.

"Dimi!" Cried Vaidehi and turned back and hugged D'mitra by her waist and started to cry hard.

"If you don't want this marriage then simply reject it.  Tell you grandfather about it. It's your life, your marriage, your decision." Said D'mitra.

"Dimi! Everything is not in my hand anymore. I have to marry Krish. I can't let my Dadu's last wish remain unfulfilled. I can't be so selfish." Cried out Vaidehi.

"What?"

"Yes. Dadu is dying. He's got Brain Cancer last stage. Maybe I'll never be able to see him again." Vaidehi looked down at the floor.

"Vinod has arrived and along with him.........Abhi has also come." Stammered D'mitra.

Tears were rolling down so much from Vaidehi's eyes that her make up was almost in the verge of getting destroyed.

"Why did he have to come? Why does he always give me pain only?"

"You still have time Vai, back off." Said D'mitra as she left the suit of the hotel.

Entering the Reception Hall of the Vivanta Taj Hotel holding the hands of her grandma, followed by two attendants who carried a golden tray covered with red velvet cloth, Vaidehi entered the hall where she was going to get engaged to Krish, with a fake smile plastered on her face.

She reached the stage and Krish help her climbing up the stairs to the platform. She got up and turned around, only to see Abhi looking up at her with painstriken eyes.

She tried ignoring him and the rest of the engagement ceremony went through in a blur for her.
