Arav's POV
In one second, I fell from the sky to the ground, my eyes opened up widely in shock, hands were shaking and a cold chill was passing into my spine when I first removed her veil.
“ Why is it you? Where is Dimple, my wife? ” I yelled at Twinkle who was sitting in a bridal suit in my bed.
“ I, I'm your wife, Arav, it was me who married you and not my sis ” she blushed while I clenched my fists.
“ Shut up, what nonsense are you spitting ” I yelled at her while she got stiffened.
“ I know, You must be shocked but it's the truth, my sis didn't want to marry you, so she, she ran away from the marriage, and I, I was so much confusion, I wasn't able to think of anything, so, for the sake of saving our family's reputation, I dressed like her and sat in the wedding pavilion,” she said with frightened eyes.
“ How could it be possible, she herself said that.. No, she can't do this to me, she can't play with me like this, she shouldn't have done this to me ” I muttered and ran away from her.
Since that day, I bear grudges against her because she was my first love, I almost gave up all my bad habits just because I wanted to be a perfect man for her, but in the end, what did she do? She betrayed me, she played with my emotions.
I agree that I wasn't good to her in the beginning, and I failed to explain my feelings to her, I know I was bad at showing my love to her, but in the end, didn't I explain everything to her?
Then why did she do this to me? If she was not satisfied with my explanations, she could talk to me, she could tell me what she wanted but why did she do this, first pretending that she loved me and then left me at the wedding, not only this, now I was married to the girl I didn't want. It's all because of her, and the only reason I could figure out was that she might hate me for what I did to her in the beginning, and she wanted to seek revenge from me and she waited patiently for the day I confess my feelings to her so that she could pretend to love me and then leave me so that I would feel her.
Yes, she was seeking revenge, but wasn't she too cruel in this? It was only because of her that I married the wrong girl. It made me mad to the point of death that now, I wanted to seek revenge from her, also wanted to use the cruelest method to get her, to make her realize that she wronged me. But, I didn't even realize that, in this process, I went too far, I even make her ashamed of herself in front of everyone for kissing me.
Actually, my biggest enemy was me. I failed to express my love to her, I didn't show my feelings to her, I failed to make her understand how much I loved her. And all those things that I did in our first meeting and the trip, it was natural for her to hate me and seek revenge from me. And what did she do? She just ran away from the marriage, then why was I so mad at her, she didn't do anything wrong, I was at fault, I destroyed my life, myself.
When I figured out this simplest point, it was too late, she was about to marry Karan Arora. I was heartbroken, and never stop messing up with that man, I couldn't see him snatching my girl from me. But, in the end, I realized that he was really a kind and gentleman, he truly deserved her, more than me, I saw her laughing with him, that I never saw with me. It was so difficult for me to accept the fact that she would be happier with him than with me. Moreover, our relationship was so much complicated, but Karan could give her the love and respect that she deserves. So, I made my heart tough and gave up on her.
Yes, I decided to gave up on her, and be tough to accept her to be someone else wife. On her wedding night, I was in a pub, drinking alcohol to ease my pain, but I frowned by seeing a live video in which people were slandering Khanna's family, also showing her intimate pictures.
I was shocked who could do this, and who had the pictures of our sex? My heart started pounding while thinking of her, I rushed towards the marriage hall and found her on the footpath, my heart ached to see her like this. On the way, I had already booked an apartment, I knew that for the sake of their so-called reputation, her parents would abandon her.
I knew that she must be depressed and heartbroken now, but I hadn't expected that she would doubt that I, I would do this to her. I agree that she didn't love me, but at least she knew that I indeed loved her, how could she think that I would do such things to her, her words and actions frightened me. She broke my heart in pieces. However, I was more concerned about her than her heartbreaking words.
I was intended to bring food for her but didn't know how I end up in a pub and started drinking again and how I reached home after taking food.
I rang the bell and soon the door was opened by her, she had changed her clothes and had worn a red nighty. I was so much drunk that my vision was blurred, I gave her food and threw myself on the couch.
“ Arav, you are drunk,” she said with worried eyes.
“ Only in this state can I forget your heartbreaking words, Dimple,” I said looking deeply at her fair cheeks, she looked up at me with stunned eyes.
“ I'm sorry Arav, I shouldn't have said those words to you ” she replied while I smiled.
“ It's not your fault, I didn't give you any reason to trust me,” I said while she hugged me tightly.
“ Don't say that Arav, it's my fault, I couldn't see your love to me ” she said while crying.
I raised her chin and looked at her deep eyes, “ Are you, you saying the truth? ”
“ Yes, I'm too late to accept this but I, I love you Arav, would you please forget what happened before and... ”
I pulled her more close to me and kissed her lips, I was dying to hear these words from her, she finally said that she loved me, I can't be happier than that.
She then looked up at me and said while blushing, “ Let's get to the bed first ”
