IF LIFE..

16.

Shreya's Pov-

My mind and body both became numb after listening to the what my father told me. How can someone can be that much cruel. I am greatful to the Shashwat uncle for saving me otherwise I can't even imagine what would be my life will. 

But along all these thought there are still some questions that are left unanswered and now I want to know the answers of those questions.

When I wanted to ask that from papa, guess what?

He isn't home. He left again without saying bye and when he will come. 

Woahh.. that's great. 

He dropped the bomb on me and now behaving like nothing has happened. 

Great.. Right?

I firstly decided to wait for him but I dropped the idea and went into my room and get freshed quickly and wore a light dress and made my way to the kitchen for breakfast.

Just I'm going to make the breakfast, papa came home with some packets of snacks. 

Oh.. so he didn't leave but went to grab snacks.  Thank god otherwise I might die from those questions.

We quietly sat on the sofa and serve ourselves. Papa might aware of the curiosity that is playing inside me. That's why he told me to ask what I wanted to.

I didn't wasted a second and immediately asked.

"Who's the person who saved you? If he is that much powerful then why didn't he helped you in searching for Aryan?" I asked.

"He is Madhvesh Singh Rajput and yes, he is Shikhar's father. It's not like he didn't helped. He helped. We tried to search for him everywhere. But the person who took him, hide him very well. We didn't get even a single clue in these years. And the person who took him, his indentity is something which no one knows." Papa replied.

" Oh.." I said.

"Tell what you want to say." Papa said.

"Papa.. I wanted to ask that what if you didn't Aryan. Then what will happen?" I asked.

" I know what you wanted to say. I am not bounding you yet neither I did in the past. Give me some time. In that time I also searched for Aryan and also test that boy before agreeing to your marriage. Even if I found Aryan, I will also test both because even after founding him, I can't be able to trust him as he grew in the taht man's shadow."  Papa said. 

I felt like every muscle of my body relaxed. Because even if he didn't agree to mine and Adhiraj's relation, he also didn't give his consent for mine and Aryan's marriage. 

I had trust on papa. I know what he will do is only for best future so I decided to not tell Adhiraj that papa wanted to test him before agreeing to our relationship.

But I will tell him about Aryan. Even though I will not tell him the full story, but I will tell him a little bit. 

Telling everything to him might be risky as he is short tempered. 

With these thoughts, I finished my breakfast and papa said bye to me as he is against going on his treasure hunt. 

After that I talked to Shikhar regarding the matter. He said he knew all about this and that blast acted like a shock for me which made me forget all happenings. He said that I didn't even recognised my father at that time and always glued to aunty (his mom). Later when papa showed some of our pictures (Shreya's with her father) after that I started calling him father. I even asked for a DNA test from him. Listening to this, Papa became shocked and everyone laughed after listening to my silly demand.

After that we chit chat for some time and then he took everybody on conference. We had fun for two whole hour. I feel great after talking to them after they graduated from University. 

I didn't realise that it's lunch time, so I quickly made some light lunch and ate it and then went for sleep as yesterday I didn't slept well. And again after waking up, I did some work and then had dinner and again went to sleep. Like this the day is over.

Author's Pov-

Next day Shreya talked to Adhiraj on phone. That time he said that he is going somewhere for a week as it's something urgent. He will meet her after that as he planned and told her to be ready for the surprise. Shreya asked him about the surprise but he didn't tell her. Instead he cut the call after saying Love you Darling.

Next few days, Shreya was busy with her college work. And Adhiraj was busy in his own work which dealing with some illegal deals and works. 

Here, Niharika somehow came to know about the reason behind the changed behaviour of  Adhiraj. 

Yes, she get to know about the affair of Adhiraj and Shreya by one of her friend. 

Her friend Mona is showing some images she clicked in mall three months ago to buy a necklace. She said she saw Adhiraj there with a girl. They were holding each other hands. Sometimes Adhiraj also took her in his embrace. So she clicked some of their pictures. 

Niharika that time didn't give any reactions. She talked to her for sometime by changing the topics, then she bid the goodbye and came home.

There she start throwing things and breaking them in anger. She is cursing Shreya. She promised herself to make her pay for thinking to snacth Adhiraj from her. She promised herself that she will make them both pay. She will tear Shreya bit by bit so that she didn't dare to love someone anymore in this life as well as in next 9 births also.
