*AVYAAN'S POV*
I was sitting on the bed recalling the things that happened today..The happy face of shanvi,her tears stained cheeks,something she was mumbling..I can't see her like this I should talk to her about this matter...I was thinking when she came out being fresh..she gave me a small smile and was going to sleep when I call her
"Spa-"I realized I was going to call her the nickname I gave her..No I can't tell her the nickname rn..I will tell her when I want..I saw her looking at me with a raised eyebrow..
"I mean shanvi" I said nervously..to which she nodded..
"Come here I want to talk to you"I called her patting the sit beside me..her eyes are showing some different emotions rn..Her face indicates fear..She is scared of something..But what this question is lingering in my mind..
"Shanvi"I called her again and she came out from her thoughts...
"Uhm?is it necessary..I-I mean can't we talk tomorrow..I am feeling sleepy rn" She said fake yawning..and avoiding talking to me..but I want to know so I have to talk..
"Yes..And tomorrow you can take holiday and you can sleep as much as you want no one gonna scold you" I said with a smile..She nodded and came..She sat on the bed maintaining a proper distance between us..I turned towards her..
"Shanvi how was my surprise?" I tried talking to her with little things..
"Uhm..It was nice" she said with smile
"Nice?I thought you will like it"I was disappointed I thought she will like it but no..
"No I mean I like it no-no I loved it..It was the best surprise I ever received..Like celebrating my birthday with my family after a long time" she said being happy..I was stuck on the last line"after a long time?"..She looked at me and realized what she said..she tried avoiding meeting my eyes..
"Uhm!It is what you want to talk..then thank you for the surprise ..now I should go"she said with a smile..she got up and was going when I grabbed her hand..She turned around and looked at the hand and then at me..I got up from my sit and held her shoulders and made her sit again..I held her hand..she looked at our hands.."wth she mustn't like it"I thought and took my hand back...
"Shanvi I said I want to talk to you..but you're going..it's not what I want to talk I mean it was but the main topic is something else"I said with a serious voice..
"Shanvi don't ignore it it just I want to talk about it..I want to sort it out not me but I want us to sort it out"I said being genuine...our eyes lock and this time her eyes are neutral..
"What? What matter you are talking about I can't understand"she said avoiding her eyes..
"Shanvi I am coming to the point..who are they in the photo except you and your grandma ?" I asked her showing the photo which is on my phone..Her eyes looked hurt and her eyes are welling up with tears..she looked at me and tried her best to not cry infront of me..
"Hey hey shanvi it's ok..If you don't want to talk then it's ok" I panicked seeing tears in her eyes..I engulfed her in a hug..It was our first hug..I felt my t-shirt wet..then I realized she is crying..I made her cry..I should have ignored it but no I want to know..I feel guilty..I made her look me..I wiped her tears..
"I'm sorry shanvi for asking you..Idk it would triggered you I'm sorry..Idk" I said and at last my voice was low..I got up and was going to the balcony thinking she need time alone..
"THEY ARE MY PARENTS" she said and that line echoed in my ears numerous time.."Parents?ain't Trisha's parents are her parents" I thought and went to sit back again..I hold her hand again doesn't matter if she feel uncomfortable..but she needs someone rn..
"Parents?but how" I asked bewildered
"Yes they are my biological and real parents"She said in a low voice..
"What?" only this word escaped from my mouth..
"Yes..but now they are not with me..They left me all alone in this world when I was five...It was my fault if I didn't request them to pick me from school and spend a Day on amusement park..Then they would have with me rn.."she said burst in tears again..I can't see her crying like this and hugged her..I thought she will push me but didn't..
"Shh Shh shanvi it's not your fault ok"i said her consoling her..
"Then why they are not with me tell me why?bcz-bcz of me I lost them..I-I saw their accident happened infront of my eyes..I-I was happy when they are came but suddenly their car got hit by a truck and i lost my happiness"she told me and I can't imagine from what stage she went..
"Do-dyk everyone blamed I'm I'm a bad omen..bcz of me my parents,dadi died"she added wiping her tears which are flowing continuously
"But shanvi your grandma died bcz of heart attack" I said reminding her...
And she isn't bad omen..she is my Laxmi.. she is our house's Laxmi..
"But it's no of use they still blamed me..The day I lost dadi I lost everything..I-I lost but before my dadi died she took promise I should never give up..I will find my happiness..I find a family,a friend but-" she said hip cupping but she didn't complete her sentence..I looked at her..I want her to complete it but seeing her condition I didn't ask her to..she broke the hug..
"Promise me you won't leave me..everyone leaves me..I want you to promise me,I can't lose this family, Veer and you.. pinky promise" she said showing her little finger to me so I can promise her...
"Pinky promise"I said intertwining the little finger with her..she smiled at me..this time a genuine smile..She doesn't want to leave me makes me feel happy...I smiled at her...she wiped her tears...
"But dyk my parents?"She asked
"Yes!"I respond
"But how?I mean..uhh idk what even I'm saying" she said frustratingly
"It's OK I will tell you" I replied laughing at her..she is looking cute when she is frustrated..
"When I was a kid,I was playing at the park but my football went to road..I rushed to took..I took it and I was in the middle of the road..I didn't see a car coming..I looked and saw..I thought I was going to die but your father save me..your father was going to pick your mom who was across the road..she came near me and asked me 'Beta are you OK?are you hurt anywhere' she was concerned for me..I shook my head they said take care of myself I bid them bye and left..then sometimes we met and spend time..We grow a beautiful bond..They said they will bring their daughter next time..When we met next time They brought their daughter and another girl..I was playing when I noticed them..I waved and they hugged me..They introduced me to Trisha..Trisha caught my attention..they said their daughter is with her grandma..They didn't tell me your name..They say I will ask you..when you came I was gone my uncle came to pick me..Before going they told me they are leaving this city..they are going bcz your father got transferred...I was sad but they promised they will come to meet me often..But they never came back..When I meet Trisha in college it reminds me of that Trisha I thought to ask but then I thought what if she is not what I'm thinking..She never told me about your parents..I thought she is not and I never saw your grandma so I didn't recognize her...When I was training for daughter...my senior saw me your parents accident photo..my senior said it was a Tragic accident and how can we try our best to save them..When I asked them when did this accident happened? They told me it's been almost two decades..then I got to know why they never came back..but when I saw their photo in that farme..I thought I saw them somewhere then i called Kabir then I got to know who are they..But a question was lingering in my mind..what is your relation with them..I'm grateful of them..I hope their soul is in peace.."I told her everything and found her staring at me..
"You are that child of which my parents told me how great you are..but look you are Mr kha-I mean" She widened her eyes when she said something she wasn't supposed to..I came closer to her I want to know what she wants to say..
"Mr kha! What shanvi finished it" I whispered in her eyes..her heart was beating fast and a red hue was formed on her cheeks..
