Bound by Vows novel Chapter 53

"My papa was quite strict man, who always gave more importance to his principles and status more than us" she said while i can imagine him to be like this looking at his persona.

He looks very reserve kind of person. He didn't even replied me when i tried to talk with him.

"When the time came for me to do graduation...papa wanted me to send abroad for studies as he wanted me to take over his company until nick stands on his feet..." She said.

"So, you went abroad for studies?" I asked her.

"Na...i denied him because this business world never interests me. I always wanted to become a teacher. So, I applied for a college in Bangalore and I shifted there" she said.

"Did he agreed to this easily?" I asked as i don't think he would have agreed by his nature as far as i know him.

"No...he didn't agreed but i was stubborn by this decision... So, ultimately he agreed but took a promise from me that i will agree to him whatever he asked for in future. As i was too eager to shift Bangalore, i agree to it without knowing i did a big mistake..." She said.

"What mistake?" I asked immediately.

Well her father is brisk man.

"I will tell you that afterwards otherwise flow will be ruined" she said while i nodded.

"Do you want me to continue? Its already 12:15 in the night..." She asked.

"Please continue..." I said as i am curious to know more.

"Hmm...so its a good start in my college. I was not a shy person earlier... I used to do pranks along with my friend..." She said while it was hard for me to digest.

"Playful and you? I don't believe it" i said my opinion.

"Don't believe me. But i used to... many things in my life made me conservative" she said.

"Okay!!!" I said still not believing her.

"That was the best phase of my life...I enjoyed my life to the fullest..." She said lost in her thoughts.

Indeed college life is the best.

"Then i met my best friend...my partner in crime...my everything" she said while i feel little jealous.

I hope its a she or he!!!

"I had given a nick name and it was sugar" she said with a soft smile.

Thank god its a girl as sugar name would be of a girl. Right?

"He used to hate this nick name a lot but it was the best suitable name for his personality" she said breaking my all assumptions earlier.

"Ohh!!!" I said with a big o formed on my lips.

So, its him not her!!!

"Yeah...he was too sweet...always used to dig his head in books... actually we get along well due to studies only...He used to teach me in our college library...and lateron we were inseparable..." She said happily making me all jealous.

Let me clear you man, you have no chance with her as she is mine, only mine!!! I mentally threaten him though i don't know him still...

"What is the name of you—...i mean his name?" I stopped saying your as it didn't go well.

"Avi, my sugar..." She said.

"O...kayyy" i said little dramatically...

Did she ever gave me nick name? I guess no!!!

"Yeah...i don't even remember how he become from my classmate to my best friend. I started sharing my thoughts, pains and happiness, everything with him" She said while i felt little jealous as i am still not at that place.

I want her to share her everything with me, only me. I may sound little possessive, but i can't help it...i am like this.

"I was happy with my little world... My college, my life was going great. During vacations, i used to go to home at Jaipur...Then, papa sent Nick abroad for studies." She continued with a long smile as if she is living that phase again.

"Then, one day everything come to an halt...my happy days turned into painful nights...when a nightmare entered my life" She said with so much emotions that i felt a pain in my chest for her.

I clutched her hands into my palms to give her warmness and assurance that i am there with her.

She looked into my eyes and smiled a bit.

"What happened in past that hurted you so much???" I asked her.

Past... (Payal's POV)

"Papa, why did you called me here suddenly? Is everything alright?" I asked him as soon as i entered our mansion.

Papa called me in the morning to come as soon as possible, so without giving further thoughts, I packed my bags. I was worried if everything is alright or not.

As he lives alone now and above all, he is a heart patient. So, it worries me and sometimes i felt guilty to stay away from him.

But in 2 months i will complete my education and will shift here definitely... so no need to worry Payal!!! I consoled myself...

"Everything is fine Payu...You take rest as you travelled long. We will talk in the morning..." Papa said making me frown.

Here i was dying in tension and he is saying there is nothing important... I missed my important lecture and ughh!!!

I went into my room. After changing into my pyjamas i called Sugar.

"I was about to call you, cupcake. Did you reached safely?" Sugar asked me with concern.

"Yes my dear Sugary Sugar...i have reached safely..." i said with a grin as i know he will snap at me next second.

"Yuck Cupcake, don't call me with that name...do i look like a girl to you? Why you always call me that?" He said snapping at me and irritation is evident in his voice.

"Coz noone is more sweeter than you Sugar!!!" I said with a toothy smile.

"Ohh!!! Thats means i will have to change my ways...Okay!!! So, Ms. Payal Agarwal, i am warning you if you dare to call me again with that fudging name...I will make you see hell!!!" He said trying to sound intimidating and like those badboys type we always read in novels but failed miserably...

I laughed out loud and said "tumse na hobe..." {You won't be able to}

He also laughed along with me.

"Accha, why did uncle called you suddenly? Anything serious???" He asked turning all serious.

Thats why i like him a lot, not that love wala like, but only as a friend...He always cares about me and my issues more than i do.
