Since most of you wanted Aditya's POV, here it is!

Aditya's POV-

What had I reduced myself to? I married an eighteen year old without her wish just because of society's pressure along with mom and dad?

I had spoiled Swara's life and this realization was a slap on my face as we were in the car on the way back to home.

The taunts she was bearing because of her sister was not fair on her part nor were maa and papa at fault.

This only person who was at fault here was Kritika.

Can't believe I couldn't see through her selfish motives for loving me. She used all my contacts to get to where she wanted to be.

I had fallen in love with a false and fabricated Kritika. She was a traitor so long. Such a sly and manipulative person that my heart fills with venom whenever I think about her.

Looking at my newly wedded eighteen year old wife, it made me guilty of spoiling her life and future. She did nothing to deserve the treatment she was getting but I do not really feel sorry for her because she knows how to fight for herself, I had seen it the way she countered grandma. It made me frustrated and angry because of the way she was speaking to them but she was right.

She was manner less though. The way she talked to grandma was absolutely wrong and uncalled for. Whatever she said was wrong but she had to understand that she just could not talk to someone who is elder to them like that.

" This is your room. And I hate nuisance in my house." I warned her as we walked inside the house to her room.

" And I hate you. But seems like we cannot do anything about it so let's just deal with it." How dare she! No one talks to Aditya Kapoor like that.

She pulled her suitcase inside the room and slammed the door on my face.

What the hell?

" Don't you dare give me attitude Swara." I yelled at her. She had started challenging me right from today.

Not to listen to me, she turned music on. Such a childish thing to do.

She is eighteen years old. Legally adult but that does not mean mentally as well.

To take my mind off from all this going around, I decided to cook because I had given off to the housekeeper.

At lunch time Swara came downstairs, gave some attitude to me and stomped back to her room.

Just great! Now I'll have to deal with a teenage girl.

The intercom went off and it was the security guard asking permission for the pizza delivery. Swara, so I directed the call at her intercom.

Not more than five seconds she rushed down to the gate and got the pizza.

Heck! I couldn't even concentrate on cooking also because of my already preoccupied mind.

She was back with her pizza box and sat on the dining table to eat.

The rest of the week passed without any drama from her and it was Sunday which meant no work and which also meant that I'd have to stay home all day with her.

" Where do you think you're going?" I asked her as she walked into the living room and proceeded towards the gate.

" Nowhere that concerns you." She spat back.

" I see, still not learnt to talk properly with elders." I said. She is the only person who has ever talked to me like that. I'd give that to her, she is absolutely blunt.

" Yeah...and I'm never going to learn UNCLE." She remarked and attempted to get out of the house but I couldn't just let her go like that.

" LEAVE MY HAND." She roared.

" Now stop the fuck talking and listen me out. Whether you like it or not, you are my responsibility. You at all times you need to tell me where you're going out." I said, beginning to loose my temper.

" I'm not your responsibility and I'm also not a kid so stop treating me like one. I don't need your permission to go anywhere." She increased the pitch of her voice, shrieking.

I almost was on the verge of snapping. I never thought someone could shout that much.

" You see, this is the problem with kids of your age. You feel that you've got the adult title but fail to behave like one. I did not say anything about seeking permission, all I want is that you inform me if you are going somewhere." I said to rile her up more.

Two can play the game.

" I'm going to my home. Now let me go." She jerked my hand away from and started leaving.

" Swara wait. I will drop you." I proposed.

" No, thank you. I am perfectly capable of going alone. I don't need you to help me." Again she was giving me attitude.

" Okay...so let's make a few things clear Swara. Number one, you will listen to what I say in matters pertaining to your safety as long as we are living together. Second, at every point of time, you will hear to what I say patiently before reacting and the last being behaving yourself." I said wanting to make her understand as calmly as possible.

I could see her facial expressions change from irritated to frustrated to finally angry and then she rolled her eyes.

" And what makes you think that I am going to listen to you?" She asked me, clearly faking a yawn.

I ran my hand through my hair in frustration. She knows how to get onto my nerves.

Then she smirked.

" Also, I need to make somethings clear for as long as we are living together. First, I am absolutely not listening to what you say in a thousand years. Second, I will do what I please and when I please to do and the third being that I WILL go to my house on my own. I don't need your favors." She said, screaming and stormed out of the house.

Such a headache.

Just to ensure her safety, I had to follow her till her home because my driver had taken a leave for today.

Just my fucking luck!

After ensuring that she was in the house, I drove back and started working.

After winding up the online conference, I was free by late evening.

Kritika....the only person who had been on my mind this past week for all the wrong reasons. She played me, Aditya Kapoor so easily. Was it so easy to just fake love and walk away for her? No regrets whatsoever. Just a letter, a freaking letter was all that she had to offer.

I walked towards the kitchen when I phone went off.  It was mom.

" Hello." I said.

" How are you Adi?" She asked, sounding sad.

" I am okay mom. What happened? Something important?" I asked.

" Where is Swara?" She asked.

" To her parents house." I informed her.

" Beta, we have just realized that we were unnecessarily being rude to her. It was no fault of hers and yet she listened to all the taunts and did not insult us. It was wrong of us to do that. Your dad and I have realized this but your grandparents are not ready to listen." She said.

" I know mom. It is all Kritika's fault. We all are just victims of the situation, even her family." I replied.

" Okay listen, your bua is coming to meet her tomorrow so make sure that both of you reach here for lunch." She said.

" I don't think that she'd listen to me mom. She is way too pissed off at all of us and even her family." I confessed.

" Please try beta." She almost pleaded.

" I'll try mom. I don't think forcing will be a good idea." I told her to which she agreed. Then she hung up.

After having dinner, I tried calling her but it was busy.

" Hello, who is this?" She asked, picking up.

" Aditya." I told her

" What do you want?" She asked, sounding frustrated and angry.

She really needs to keep her attitude in check.

" Mom and dad want us to come to go to their place for lunch. Some relatives are coming over who want to meed you. I'll send my driver to pick you up at 12." I came straight to the point.

" Listen Mr. you cannot order me around like that. What if I say that I won't come?" She bickered back to most probably get out a violent reaction out of me.

I had made this observation that she loved irritating people when she was mad at them.

" Please Swara. Mom and dad are already very mad at your sister, you and your family for what has happened. Please do not test their patience right now." I lied because I truly wanted the things to fall in place with mom and her atleast being cordial with each other.

" What about you? Do you also feel that it's my family's fault that didi ran away?" She asked, catching me off gaurd.

" I am sorry. You don't have to answer it. I'll be there." She added, panicking.

She sounded afraid to know what I had to say but I did not blame her family or her for what had happened. It was all Kritika and it will always be her. Just the thought about her riles me up to no extent.

" No." I answered her questioned and hung up.

Kritika's name in this past week had been enough to make me mad.

" Stop the fuck Aditya. Stop being such a wuss about this and accept what has happened." I said and went to bed.

Swara's POV-

The next morning when mumma woke me up, she sounded happy about something and I was glad that she had a smile on her face after so long.

" Mumma....I have to go to Aditya's house for lunch. Some relatives are coming." I informed her.

" Okay Shona....go and take bath. Then I'll help you get ready." She said and I nodded.

I did as I was told and when I got out of the washroom, saw a saree kept on the bed.

No...no...no. I am absolutely not wearing that. I'll fall down. Hell! I did not even wear saree on my farewell. That's a different thing that we were not allowed but still.....no saree.

" Mumma...give me a suit. Saree is too much!" I exclaimed.

" No Shona...you'll wear saree only today. Now go and wear the blouse and the underskirt and I'll tuck the saree for you." She instructed me.

Reluctantly, I did as I was told and within like half an hour, I was all ready.

" Now wear your mangalsutra and apply thr sindoor." Mumma added.

" No mumma....I don't like all that. Just let it be." I answered back.

" Shona...please do it for me baccha." She emotionally blackmailed.

I again followed what she said.

" Shona....Aditya is here. Come down." Grandpa said.

" What! He was supposed to send his driver, not come here!" I mutter exclaimed but walked into the hall.

Swara's look-

" Let's go." I said but he kept looking at me.

" Ass....Aditya?" I corrected myself to which he just smirked a little and raised an eyebrow.

" Let's go." He addresssed me after he was done meeting mumma.

He was so normal with her that I was shocked.

" Shona...now go or else you'll be late." Mumma said.

I nodded and followed him to his car, sat down and started for his house.

" Who are these relatives?" I asked him.

" My bua and her kids." He said and I nodded.

I just hope they don't start to taunt me!
