"See final call is yours...but definitely i will not let you marry that brute... and I am sure your father will pressurise you again even if you escape now. Above all, i will be lucky to have you as my wife... will you honour me by making me your husband???" He asked expectedly.
Aww, he is looking cute... But can i take this decision... Ofcourse avi is best choice for me...i may not love him but i like him a lot...so i made a decision which i think is best for me.
"Yes..." I said with a smile.
He hugged me immediately.
"Thank you!!! I promise i will keep you happy always" he said and i have no doubt in that.
"But before that, we need to escape..." I said.
"Hmm lets go" he said holding my hand.
After that we escaped from back door and nobody saw us. We went to a small temple and got married.
"Finally, i don't believe you're my wife now. I dreamt of this always..." He said making me smile.
"Even i don't believe...i never thought even in dreams that my marriage will be happened like this..." I said but one thought came in my head.
"Avi..." I called him.
"Hmm" he said looking at the sky. We are sitting on the stairs of the temple.
"Am i being selfish here?" I asked him.
He looked at my side with a frown clearly asking me to explain further.
"I mean that I ran away from my own marriage and married you instead just because of my selfish reason. Even put a shame on my papa's name. He will be very disappointed with me..." I said.
"I am shocked, you're still thinking about that man... Sorry to say, but he cannot be called as your father, who believe some third person over his own daughter..." He said.
"He is just a pawn of that Akhil's vicious game. I know he is wrong but i know my father, he loves me but he thinks that I was making excuses to escape that marriage..." I explained him.
"Still i don't like it...he should have trusted you more..." He said.
"But i love him and i cannot hate him even if i want to..." i said dejectedly.
We stayed silent for few minutes, then he started talking.
"Moreover, never think you're being selfish. You're just saving your own life by marrying me. I cannot even imagine if you didn't called me here, what would have happened..." He said while i think of the consequences.
Would i got married to that pervert? Or i would have escaped... I don't know but i think this step was the best step for me. Though avi thinks that i am not selfish but i can't deny this fact that i was/am selfish.
"Now What's next?" Avi asked breaking my thoughts.
"I want to go home" i said.
"What? Don't you think that would be a bad idea?" He asked unsurely.
"Maybe but if i have already did mistake...umm...i don't know it will be called as a mistake or not...but if it is, then i want to meet papa before leaving...i cannot left without meeting and explaining him." I explained him.
"Okay, if you say so...but i don't think it's a good idea..." He said.
After sometime
We reached my house. My wedding was held at our mansion only.
Bodyguards watched me with a shock... When we moved inside, there was hustle and bustle... They was some argument going on.
"How could you say that she is not here... Today's her marriage with my son and you're saying that you have no idea where she went..." Mr. Singh shouted on papa.
"I am so sorry...i...i don't know where is—" papa was saying all this with folding his hands but i stopped him.
"Papa..." I called him walking ahead.
He got startled with my voice and looked towards my side.
He was looking relaxed after seeing me and walked ahead.
"Where did you went? I was so worried about you... Don't you know you how much important today's day is, and..." He stopped in mid looking at me.
"What is this???" He asked shockingly pointing my hairline filled with vermillion.
"I...i got married wi—with Avi" I said with little fear lowering my face.
He raised his hand to slap me but i never felt any pain.
I looked up only to see Avi holding Papa's raised hand.
"Oh wow, here we're waiting for the bride and she came already married with another man... Disgusting..." Mrs Singh said with pure hatred at my side.
Akhil walked towards my side with a rage which made me flinched due to fear...He tried to hold me but avi didn't let him.
"How could you do this to me? Huh??? I accepted you with all your faults...I overlooked everything but you got married with this beggar lover of yours" he insulted us.
"What faults are you talking about, Mr. Singh? Faults which you have...?" Avi said in anger.
"I don't talk with beggars... don't know how she married such low class boy..." He insulted avi again... It raged me.
"If Avi is beggar, i am happy to be with him rather than some rapist rich brat..." I said in anger.
"Don't you dare to cross your limit Payal... Uncle, i didn't told you everything yesterday but i guess you might need to know this now..." He said making me frown.
He is upto something...
"What are you trying to say???" Papa asked him who was silent till now.
"Wait a minute..." He said and called someone.
Soon one boy come holding an envelope... now what is this all drama.
He showed something like photos? Yesterday was not enough that he is showing more.
Papa's face was pale after seeing it and he immediately dropped the photos on floor.
I picked up few photos and get horrified with the pics.
"I am sorry uncle that I have to show you these pics but this is the reality of your daughter... I loved her so much. I was ready to compromise but I think I was wrong because she is a slut, I don't know with how many boys... I don't even want to say it..." he said with an innocent face.
Once he completed his rant, Nick hold his collar while avi punched him hard on his stomach...
