Her Second-Hand Husband!

Chapter 11: 10. Judgement Day

Anika's PoV

It's Friday today and I am too scared to open my eyes. I don't know when I fell asleep last night but even in my sleep, I dreamt of the worst things that would happen. Not even a flake of good flashed in my mind. I heard shuffling in the room that tells me everyone is wide awake. I am to explain myself and make them understand that LOVE is not a sin and I didn't do it deliberately to disrespect them in any means.

I woke up and went straight to the restroom without facing anyone. To my surprise, Advay was awake and was having his morning tea. The home was inconveniently silent and everyone was so rigid and moody.

"Good morning, pa!" I went to my dad after doing all my morning work including yoga.

"This is not a good morning, Anu. You and I have to talk." he said, setting aside the newspaper he was looking into. Mom, hearing our talk came from inside the kitchen and stood at the kitchen doorstep. Advay listened to us too.

"Yes, pa. Please listen to me before you come to a conclusion. I didn't do anything on purpose." I tried to talk but I have not prepared anything to tell him that will justify me.

"I have not yet come to a conclusion, Anu. I always think that you are a brilliant girl. I have always given you full freedom because I trust you more than anything. I have not given you them to take advantage of it, Anu.” Dad talked to me like usual. I didn't sense any anger in his talk that made me more scared.

"Pa, I didn't take any advantage or I didn't misuse any of the freedom you gave me, pa. I promise. It is true that I like someone. He is a nice man, pa. His name is Arun. He was the one that has been helping me with the project. He was a senior, pa. A very nice gentleman. You will like him too, pa."

"If you can find your life partner on your own, then who are we, Anu? We, as a parent have given you everything so far. Don't we have the right to find a suitable groom for you?" He asked me.

"You have, appa! Please appa, just meet him once. You will for sure like him." I don't know what else to tell him.

"We have sent you to college to study and make yourself financially independent. Not to find someone to love and be independent from us." He said which struck my heart.
