I didn't mean to hurt her, but it was the necessary thing to do right now. She is just crying; she is not letting her pain out. I know Aarav since I was a kid since birth. Our fathers were best friends, so we are. I lost my parents on the same day Aarav and Meera lost theirs. We were heartbroken and devastated. but we had each other. they are my only family 'living' by my side and I love them. for people, I'm just a lawyer because I never saw any lawyer winning our parents' case. But I'm something more than that. Once I Loved a girl. I Loved her so much but... Not a memory I want to Remember. I lost Peoples, I lost my emotions And I'm Living because of her; Meera. My little Babbler. We All Know she had a lot of pain in her little heart. but she has to move on as she suggested to us. And if she is willing to, we are willing too.
I let her cry all she wants. After some time, I told her caressing her hair, "If you promise us that you will really move on. leaving everything in the past We promise you to find a girlfriend for us soon too." Aarav was shaken.
I did know I said something we can't do but we can at least try for her. We can absolutely try.
As soon as she heard what I said, she stopped crying and overjoyed and hugged me. little babbler started babbling again. " I love you, Dada, I promise I'll try to move on." then got up and ran towards Aarav to hug him. Aarav was too shocked to react, but He was staring at me with scary eyes like he just need a gun in his hand, and he is forever ready to shoot me. I literally got scared. Meera took Ian's hand, and got back to her room, for getting ready for the office.
After they vanished from Dining. I was ready to slip from there because Devil was waiting to kill me. But got into the Devil's hand. Aarav was looking too much Scary.
"Don't you think you said too much Unnecessary shit right now?" He smirked.
"I... I know but can't we try at least for her."
I was too scared to talk but what else option I got right now? if I don't want Myself Dead then I have to speak.
" Listen I know it's difficult for you but look at me do you think I can go around fooling Myself that I can Love someone and be Happy? I can't but if we don't try, we'll lose our Happy Bubbly babbling Doll, think carefully, What I said Ok."
" FINE " He Mumbled.
That was the moment of relief, "But" He interrupted my happy moment.
"Now what but?"
" Whatever we are trying we are only going to try today. after today we not trying any Shit. Do you get that Dumbhead?" He said in one breath. this sentence shut my mouth. I Can't Believe what I just heard. I was going to respond, but Ian and Meera joined us in the hall to get to the Office. so, I just winked at Aarav to let him know that his Plan is ON.
As they arrived Ian and Aarav walked in the direction of the garage to get the cars at the front gate.
Meera tucked her hands into mine. we started walking to the front gate too. "Dada, can I ask you something?" She asked while walking. "You don't have to ask sweetheart, go on."
"Why do we get pens only after 6th Grade, when we have to write our whole life through pens?" she asked.
I didn't get what she said, " you tell me... I don't know." I requestioned.
"It's a message for us that from now your mistake will not be Forgiven."
After what she said I couldn't find a perfect word to respond.
"Isn't."
I was too shocked to speak, but I tried, "How serious you are becoming in this age of yours?"
"That's not my Question's Answer!" she glared at me. " Ok, first of all, I didn't see that deep thought coming and second you are right, but Every goodbye is not your fault, and you have to know it. Do you get that!"
She tightens her grip on my hands, " Yup. I got it." And our car came in front of us "hop in." Aarav said. So, we hopped into the car and headed towards our Company.
