Avni's PoV
It's been a week since papa has been discharged from the hospital.
I am taking his full care and also I am sleeping in the room next to mom and dad's room so that in case there is any problem I can take care of him.
Sid has started going to office again and we are doing well.
We sit for an hour daily, have coffee and talk.
Everyone is happy seeing us like this and even we are happy.
No fights and all, we just discuss about our days and other things and it's fun actually.
Our friendship is going great as of now.
We never heard anything from Navya or Abhimanyu and it's a great thing.
I really want to tell Sid about the truth about me and my parents, so that he knows everything.
Because, if anyone happens to ask him he should know everything and even I don't have any problem in telling him the truth.
It was time for breakfast now and we were sitting at the dining table when dad said
"Avni ,Sid I wanted to talk to you regarding something"
"Yes dad" we both said.
"Bebe is coming today in the evening" he said.
"Avni beta, Bebe is the head of the family and she's my mother's sister. She has always treated me like her Son and loves us all a lot. She may be a bit strict but she'll eventually love you too" Dad explained.
"That's not a problem dad. I'll make sure she likes me " I smiled
"Um..so you'll need to shift in Siddharth's room today before she comes" he said.
"Ohh yaa , she'll shift dad, I'll help her" Sid said.
I looked at him and he shrugged his shoulders.
Isn't he too excited about me shifting to his room.
"Yaa, but make sure Bebe doesn't get to know about it" mom said.
"Yaa mom ,ofcourse" Sid said.
"Um..Avni" dad said
"Yes papa" I replied
"I know you won't like it but uh...Avinash is coming today to meet me" dad said.
"No.. .umm... that's not a problem papa. Don't worry" I managed to smile a little
"I am done. I'll pack my stuff" I said and left.
Come on Avni. Just think, this is the last time you have to face him.
If he says anything just speak the truth and end it.
And now even Siddharth will come to know about the truth.
Yes, you can do it.
*4 hours later*
"Avni" I heard a knock.
"Yes, come in" I said
It was Sid.
"Are you fine?" He asked worried.
"Yes , I am" i replied
He nodded his head not believing me.
"Uh..Mr.Oberoi is here and he is asking for you" he said.
" I didn't know you knew him" he said again.
"You don't know many things Sid" I said.
"Huhh?"
"Come , you'll get to know now." I said
We both went downstairs.
"Hey Avni, how have you been" he asked
