First of all, thank you so much for reading my book.
If you read the chapters from Durga Puja to Zariya, you’ll find out why her father, Mrinmay, did this to her.
Risha, Riya’s elder sister, was in love with a man and wanted to marry him, but Mrinmay, their father, didn’t let them get married because the man wasn’t good for her. So, to get revenge, Risha used Riya against Mrinmay. And since Riya was the most loved, it hurt him deeply.
Mrinmay found out, and to save Riya from Risha and her wrath, he decided to separate Riya from the family. But this separation made Riya’s life hell.
As for their mother: when Mrinmay’s health declined, they flew to France. Mrinmay didn’t let Riya talk to her mother.
