Chapter 3 - Chapter 3                 Rushing of old memories            

In Citadel city, Ayden (Akshara's father) has already bought a house a few days back during trip to the city with Akshara. The woman he met in a restaurant, whom Akshara misunderstood as her father's lover was a real estate broker. The place is as that of white bridge, lies in outskirt of city, calm and refreshing, with beautiful plants and butterflies dancing around them. It is going to take like 45 minutes ride to her university. Since father and daughter are going to the same road i.e. her father's office and her universities are close to each others, it is not going to be a problem.

In white bridge city, few maids and guards were left to take care of the house. Ayden left his business from white bridge to his one of the trustworthy manager and took over the Citadel branch.

The first day of university of Akshara, she wears her beautiful dress, the dress that she knows is that it belongs to her late mother. When she wears that dress she resembles her mother in many ways. She is as beautiful as her mother, her physical stature reminds of her mother to anyone who remembers her. She styles her hair and put on her favorite perfume, a faint lipstick and high heels. She loves wearing high heels as her mother did.

When she comes out of her dressing room, her grandma Beatrice and her father were stunned. Her father's eyes gets watery because he remembers the only love of his life, his Destiny (Destiny is the name of Akshara's mother). Grandma Beatrice hugs Ayden and asks Akshara to join the family hug.

Ayden goes out and grandma knows that he needs sometime to recollect himself because it is too painful to him. She knows that he is going to talk with her, from his memories and is going to express his love to her, talk to her and he is going to be fine. That is how he has collected himself for 17 years now.

Grandma Beatrice feeds a spoon of yogurt to both Ayden and Akshara since she believed that having yogurt before starting anything brings auspicious and good luck. This had been a regular event for them, so father-daughter had their yogurt and leaves home in a car.

Since the way is new, Akshara decides to sit in front and Ayden sits in the back of the car. He is glad that she sits in front, now he can be with his memories alone, undisturbed.

People might say love is not eternal or a person should be there to love but for Ayden, it has never been like that to him. No one can understand what he has lost in loving her but he never compared what are his gains and what are his loss in loving her. It has never been easy to him all his life, but the only thing that made his life complete was her love to him and his love to her.

His first meeting to her was in their college orientation. The dress her daughter is wearing today, she was wearing that day, side slit kurta, skinny jeans, high brown heels, her favorite Chanel Eau de Parfum, White drop earrings, brown leather bag and a notebook on her hand.

The only difference between mother and daughter is that Akshara is full of life and energy and Destiny used to be silent but observant of situation, she hides when she is in pain, she never lets other to take care of her. She cared about others and took care of them but she never let others to take care of her.

Reminiscing his old days, they reached the university. The driver opens the door to Ayden and Akshara, she hugs her father and wishes him a good day and says she will meet him in the company later after orientation is finished. He waves his hand to her and leaves the university with driver in a car. He asks him to pick her up later in the afternoon and goes to the company, DAPHNE'S COMPLEX.
