Chapter 15: chapter 15

PART - 15Days passed by merrily for Linda and Nishant. They were enjoying their phase of being in love with each other. They both felt as if they were in some other world. Even the tiniest things started becoming more and more special to them. They started exchanging each and every detail in their daily life and started becoming more and more fond of each other.Linda woke up late it was a Sunday morning. She freshened up and went to the hall. She saw her parents were waiting for her. " Good morning. " Linda greeted her parents." Good morning, dear," her father replied." What, Papa, do you want to ask me something? "" No dear, but I want to say something important to you. "" Why are you being formal? Papa just says the matter."" Yes dear, we have some guests today. Actually, you know them, it's Sharma and his family. They aren't visiting us casually. They have put forward a proposal as they are looking for a bride for their son. "" But Papa I..I just. " Linda was speechless she didn't know how to respond." No dear, don't get tensed. We aren't in a hurry, nor we'll compel you they just put forward this proposal as they know we are searching for a groom for you. But we are not fixing it all of a sudden. Let them come and see, and then we'll decide if we should proceed or not. "Linda felt a bit at ease, but she wasn't totally consoled. 'What if they and her parents like the proposal?' She thought she knew her parents would stand by her side but she had already rejected a proposal on her suspicion just because she didn't feel right about it and now she was puzzled about how to convey that she was in love with the same person whom she rejected by her own choice. She felt that it would be something like taking her parents for granted. Sharma uncle is a good friend of her father, so going forward, if she rejected it, saying she loved someone would be like deceiving her parents who were liberal. She felt it was too late to confess about her love to her parents. She regretted waiting for the right time.She texted Nishant to call her if he was free and waited for his response without knowing how to overcome this situation. To be continued....
