DQ#1 Thousand Reasons Why

Better To Be Secret

Aradhya's POV

" You have told Mom and Dad that you guys were going to Liverpool." Damien said to Juliet and she sighed deeply.

" If I would tell her that I am visiting Paris then she would never ever allowed me to come here." Juliet said. " And we are going back tomorrow. I am fit and fine." She said but he shook his head.

" It's not about your safety, Juliet. You have to understand that you should not choose such a wrong way to get Mom and Dad convinced." He said.

" But I am not-" Juliet was saying but Damien stopped her.

" It was wrong, Juliet. Wasn't it?" Damien asked her. She sighed deeply.

" Yes, it was." Juliet said.

" So, you shouldn't do such a thing ever again, right?" Damien asked her.

" Ok." Juliet said.

" What ok?" Damien asked her.

" I will not do such a thing ever again." Juliet said.

" Good." Damien said.

" But you have so came here with Tina. Does her parents know that?" Juliet asked him.

" We both are adults. Besides, she has informed her parents already. No worries." He said and Juliet rolled her eyes. " We are going back tonight. You meet me at home tomorrow." Damien said and walked out of there. I sighed deeply.

" Why do you have to lie to them, Lattie?" Whitney asked her. " If we requested your parents to let you come with us they would let you come." She said.

" I thought they will not let me come to Paris on the occasion of New Year celebration." Juliet said.

" You should have talked to them properly." Heidi said.

" My parents are not like your Mom, Heidi. You know that." Juliet said.

" Ok. What happened is happened, let's not discuss about it anymore. We can't change it anyways." Gabi said to them.

" Face it when you go back home." Jordana said. " You have to, Lattie. There is no other choice."

I sighed deeply. I thought Juliet's parents are more open minded. But why don't they want her to explore the world with her friends?! I mean they should let her spread her wings. It was not at all acceptable in my opinion.

" Whose plan was it to go on the skating rink?" Juliet asked and Whitney pouted.

" Mine." Whitney said and Juliet glared at her.

" When we go back to London I will take you to the special skating rink and see for how long you can enjoy it. Stupid!!!" Juliet said. " No, wait. Why am I blaming you?!! I am stupid. I knew that both Damien and Tina love skating. So, they will definitely try it when they are here in Paris. I shouldn't go there in the first place. My mistake. I shouldn't let any of us to go there. It was a huge mistake. I am a stupid." Juliet said. I shook my head.

" Calm down, Juliet. Come. Have a seat." I said to her making her sit on the couch.

" I am a stupid." Juliet said to me. I shook my head.

" You are not. You just made a mistake. That does not mean you are a stupid. It's not your fault. The problem is with your family. They are trying to interfere in your personal space. I mean I know that they are your parents and they very worried about your safety but they should check first if they are snatching your freedom in that case or not." I said to her. " No worries, Juliet. You will be 18 in 2 years. Then you can take decisions for yourself. Till then try to accept what your parents decide for you. I believe they will not choose something which is not right for you." I said to her. She nodded.

" I can understand." She said.

" Great then." I said.

" I don't think Damien will inform this to your parents." Ardeyn said to Juliet.

" How are you so sure?" Juliet asked him.

" I am sure. Just chill." Ardeyn said. I rolled my eyes.

" I think he was angry seeing you with us, Ardeyn." Whitney said to Ardeyn. He chuckled.

" What can I say here?!! Kentworths are so weird." He said. Juliet glared at him.

" Watch your words!!!" Juliet said. Ardeyn chuckled.

" See?! I was right." He said to Juliet. I shook my head.

" Guys, stop now. Enough of drama. Go and sleep. We have to check in at 7:30." Asher said and I nodded.

" Let's go." I dragged Juliet out of there. We reached out room and Juliet was sitting with a sour face. " What now?!!" I asked her.

" Ardeyn stupid!!!" She said.

" Ok." I said rolling my eyes.

" Ardeyn idiot!!!" She said and I sighed.

" May be." I shrugged.

" Ardeyn moron." She said and I chuckled.

" May be he is moron." I said.

" Not may be. He is moron." She said to me. I shook my head.

" What is the problem between you two?" I asked him.

" Our families are immortal enemies." She said to me. I looked at her weirdly and she rolled her eyes.

" What??! But why?" I asked her.

" That is a long story and story for another day. I am not in mood." She said. I shook my head.

" You will never be in mood and I will be cliffhanger all my life." I shook my head. She chuckled.

" I am really not in mood today." She said to me.

" When will you be in mood?" I asked her.

" God knows." She said. I shook my head.

" Go sleep." I said to her.

" Ok." She said and lied down on my bed. I sighed deeply.

" Will you sleep on my bed?" I asked her.

" There is no yours no mine in friendship." She said pulling the duvet on her. I shook my head and heard my phone ringing. I took my phone and walked into the balcony. It was my mom calling me. She must be missing me. I miss her as well.

" Hello, Mom." I said.

" Hey, Ari. When are you guys coming back?" She asked me.

" Tomorrow. We have to check in at 7:30. So, we have to check out from the hotel at least 3 hours before checking in. I think I will be at home by 10 in the morning." I said to her.

" Oh. Ok." She said.

" Mom, you know-" I was going to say that I met my so called father here but I think if will not be a pleasant experience to be shared with her. So, I decided not to share it with her.

" What happened, Ari?" She asked me.

" Nothing, Mom. I miss you." I said to her. She chuckled.

" I miss you too." She said.

Some things are better to be secret.
