Next Week:-
Teja POV:-
After that day, my schedule was not tight in the hospital.
After I woke up that day, Tanish gave me the lift to my home.
I accepted without throwing any tantrums.
After all, I want to go home without seeing his face for a minute, but it was already 11 pm.
After that day, I didn't see him or hear him.
I am grateful as he is away from me.
These days, we are making a list of the guest, We are going to invite to my wedding.
After all, this is the wedding of the year.
I want to make everything right from my side.
If there is any mistake from my side, I am sure Tanish will taunt me throughout our marriage.
And I don't want that.
" Teja!!! " Mom called me, and I come out from my thoughts.
" Yes, maa. " I replied.
" Do you think we need to invite your grandpa and uncles? " Mom asked, and I got stunned.
I know she is talking about her three brothers and father.
" No, maa. Have you forgotten what those people did to us? I never want to see their faces again in my life.
They are not welcome in our life anymore. " I yelled.
Suddenly I realized what I did.
" I am sorry, maa. I didn't mean to yell at you. I- " I said look at maa's teary face, but maa cut me off.
" I understand, dear. I never want to see their faces too. But I want to ask you so that you never regret it in the future. " Mom replied with a heavy voice.
I know somewhere she misses them too.
She is craving for their touch and voice.
But, I can never forget what they did to my mother and me.
I hugged her and kissed her tears.
" I know, mom. You know very well that I love you. But they are a sensitive spot for us. I can never forget what they did to us and what they did to you. I can never forget your suffering. " I explained, and she hugged me and started crying.
I hold her till she wants to cry.
When she stopped crying, I wiped her tears.
" Feeling better? " I asked, and she nodded.
" Then let's work on the list and other things, right? " I asked, and she nodded happily.
" My dear, let's do the work. " Mom replied enthusiastically.
Jassi and Bubbly go on their honeymoon. That's the reason we are doing everything ourselves.
My phone rang suddenly, and I saw Tanish's name is showing on my phone's screen.
" Teja, my son is calling you. Talk to him. Don't make him wait. " Mom said with a teasing smile.
" Oh, he becomes your son, and you forgot about your daughter. " I said try to maintain my sad face.
" Oh, dear. You are my daughter, and I love you, so go and attend the call. " Mom replied, and I nodded happily.
I came to the corner and picked my phone.
" What took you so long? " Tanish asked angrily from the other side.
" I was discussing something very important with my mother. " I replied sarcastically.
" Alright, get ready at 8. We are going on a dinner date. " Tanish ordered me.
" Tanish, have you forgot that I am your fiance. You didn't even ask me if I am free or not. Just order me like I am your servant. " I replied angrily.
" Oh, dear. You have forgotten that you had signed a contract with me, which has one clause that you will never show disobedience towards me. " Tanish replied arrogantly, and I want to beat him right now.
But what he said is true.
" FINE!!! I'll be ready at 8. " I replied, and I heard a happy laugh from the other side.
" Oh, dear. That's what I want. Love you!!! " Tanish said and cut the call.
I huffed and came towards maa.
" What did Tanish say? " Mom asked curiously.
" We are going on the dinner date. " I said with irritation.
" Teja, why are you irritated? " Maa asked.
" You know very well, maa. I to go on the dinner date and the fancy restaurants. I always wanted a simple and happy life.
But Tanish is so rich. Our preferences are so different. I have parties, but he lives in that luxurious life. " I explained, and she smiled.
" Teja, have you ever thought why did they choose you? " Mom asked, and I shook my head.
But inside, I knew the answer.
For REVENGE!!!
" They chose you because you are different from those girls they ever met in their life.
They know you can control Tanish.
I see love in Tanish's eyes.
He never sees your different preferences.
He loves the whole of you, and he can give you every happiness you want.
Teja, I know you are marrying him for my sake(Gasp from Teja). But give this marriage a chance. " Mom said her little speech, and what she said made me think for a while.
I think she is right. I need to accept my fate and give this marriage a chance.
But, I will be ready to accept him if he will behave well with me. If he trusts me today and he didn't say something worse to me. I promise, maa.
I promised myself in my heart.
I came to the room and started to find a dress for myself.
I find a royal blue gown with half sleeves and reached on my knees.
I sprayed my favorite perfume on me and wore crystal blur earrings.
I wore black pencil heels and my watch.
I let my hair free today.
I look at the clock, which shows 7:58 pm.
I took my purse and phone, and I walk to the hall.
At sharp 8, I heard the bell door sound.
I went to the door and opened it.
And there he is, looking handsome in a blue Armani suit, and the Rolex watch is shining on his left hand.
He is wearing our wedding ring in his hand and his signature smirk on his lips.
" Teja, you are looking gorgeous. " Tanish complimented me and kissed me on my cheeks.
I blushed as anyone can see his affection.
" Let's go. " I said and closed the door.
He led me to his car and opened the passenger car side.
I thanked him and entered inside.
He sat on the driver's seat and started driving.
He took us to a five-star restaurant, and the waiter led us to the center table.
Throughout the way, I was confused as he can book a private room, so why not.
" Because I know you don't like my rich life. You want to live a simple life. " Tanish replied, and I look at him with shock.
" Did I said my thoughts loudly? " I thought.
" No, but I can read you easily like a book. " Tanish replied, and I smiled bitterly.
We ordered our dinner, and we started to talk about our schedules and regular life.
After all, I promised my mother in my heart.
Tanish is listening to my surgeries carefully.
For the first time, we are talking casually.
We are laughing, talking, and listening to each other.
The waiter served our dinner, and we eat it with a light heart.
We had finished half dinner when Tanish looked mad suddenly.
I turn my face and saw a bunch of males talking about me.
I sighed, but Tanish stood and punched one of the guys.
" Tanish, stop it. What are you doing? " I yelled at Tanish.
" Teja, don't stop me. They dare to see you. They are looking at you with lusty eyes. " Tanish yelled.
" What will your punch do? Do every male stop starring at every woman with lust eyes? You can't stop everyone. So, stop. " I replied with irritation.
But, I never thought he did what he is about to do.
Tanish Kashyap slapped his fiance in front of everyone.
" They are seeing what is MINE!!! Whoever dares to see and touch what is mine will face the consequence. " Tanish yelled.
I touched my slapped area and ran away.
Tears are falling from my eyes.
I never felt this humiliation in my life, not even when everyone called me names.
Soon, Tanish came with the car in front of me and pushed me inside the car.
" Teja, I am sorry, baby. I didn't mean to slap you. I was- " Tanish started to explain, but I cut him off.
" Tanish, shut up!!! You slapped me in front of everyone just because I stopped you for doing nonsense in front of the public. You are arrogant, rude, and selfish. " I yelled.
He caught my hair in his fist and pushed my face in front of his face.
Tanish kissed the hell out of me.
" Teja, just mind your language. Don't you dare to fight with me because of those a**holes. " Tanish yelled and took me back to my home.
I am grateful to him as he took my phone and purse from the restaurant.
