Her Hope

Chapter 36💌

" Kayal, Would you like to marry my second son Siddarth? "

My whole world turned upside down , when those  words left from Aunty's mouth!!!

I just thought everything had to be a nightmare and when I wake up next morning there would be not any traces of today's event or I thought it would be better the medium size chandelier which hanging on the straight line above of my head, broken down and I had to admitted in ICU.

"Kayal.. Kayal.." I felt someone shook my shoulder and my thoughts got lost. I heard Kavya's voice near to my ear " Kayal, what are thinking? Everyone is waiting for your answer." First time I lifted my eyes and looked at everyone's face. Like she said each ones attention was solely on me. I did not know why but suddenly my eyes  looked for Karthik but he was not there.

Again reality pricked me hard that I was all alone in this world and I was an orphan. No one was there to support me through this hard situation.

" Kayal, what is this? Mrs. Susila waiting for your reply for long time. Is this your way to show your respect for her?" father yelled at me infront of everyone.

"Mr. Krishnan. Please stop your yelling. We have come here to talk about a good thing so please do not talk like this. It was my mistake, listening to your words I did not ask Kayal's consent before coming here like this. I would have known the consequences.

I think she was confused about this sudden arrangement with Siddarth. First let me talk to her privately. After that we will talk further. " telling to father she came near me and holding my arms, she told " Come Kayal, let's go to your room". I too followed her since I just wanted to leave  this place.

After coming to room we both sat down on my bed.  Turning to my side Susila aunty held my hand, " Kayal, I know it would be hard for you to accept this proposal at once and you may have doubts on Siddarth considering about past history between the two of you." I lifted my eye lids and saw her.

" But believe me, Siddarth was the one who came to me and confessed that he would like to marry you. First I also got doubt on his intentions . But he admitted that he did that everything because of the anger he was had on me. That was nothing to do with you.

When he was in Germany, he had a broke up with his long time girlfriend Riya , before he moving to here. When I met her for the first time, I did not had good impression on her. It was confirmed she used Siddarth has a golden duck to have a luxury lifestyle also she got him addicted to some drugs to use him as puppet . But in Siddarth's eyes she was as an innocent girl who loved him for eternity . Later, through an agent Sager found out most of her cheatings and fraudulents. After that Sager and me confronted her and warned her to leave him. But infront of Siddarth she acted as a victim and made a drama like we threatened her with creating false acquisitions.

He blindly believed her and fought with us taking her side. But eventually one day he caught her cheating with her ex boyfriend. They were quarreled regarding the matter and finally she broke up with him. Does not matter, that she cheated him, but he could not bear the break up. So he started to blame us for her changing in behaviour and acquiesced because of us only she cheated him in frustration.

After that he started to drink lot, consumed drugs and did more one night stands. Finally we managed to pull him off  from that wrong track. So without delaying,  Sager and Siddarth moved to India because we wanted him to forget those incidents completely. But still he refused to talk with us properly except Sara and Kamala.

You know what happened after that , and because of his anger on us he behaved with you harshly, when I took your side his anger got triggered. That was the reason for all the problem which happened on the pooja day. So he heartfully confessed his wrongs and asked forgiveness from me. Also he said that he was ready to ask forgiveness from you too.
