Karishma's pov

There was a killer and pin drop silence in hall. My dad was in so much anger but my mom was thinking for solution to save me from him. 

Mom: she is very young. She does not know anything, please forgive her. She won't say this ever.

Me: no maa, i know what m i saying. I'm matured enough to think before speaking. 

I spoke as i wanted everyone to know the reality of my feelings towards jeet. I wanted papa to know that i won't marry anyone else.

Mom: Are you out of your mind? Don't you know , who is he?

Me: but maa, you like him a lot.

Mom: Liking someone doesn't mean that i ll let you marry a divorcee.

Me: but maa, you know that it was not his fault.

I said while sobbing. My mom was about to slap me but papa stopped her......

Papa: 20 years of your life, you didn't speak even a single word in front of me. My silent, innocent, simple, shy daughter is fighting with her parents for a man. Your feelings must be very strong for him.

Me: i m sorry, papa... I .. I.........

He showed me his hand to stay quite.

Papa: You seem to be very much into vishwajeet. lf i llmake you marry some one else then you won't ever stay happy and won't be able to keep your family happy. First time you have taken a decision for yourself. I ll talk to vishwajeet's father.

I felt as if my whole world became complete. I was so happy and hugged him tight.

Me: thank you papa. Thank you soooooo much

Papa hugged me back.

Papa: all i want is your happiness meri jaan. That too you have demanded something first time in your life, how coul i deny.

I was so happy. As i approached my maa to hug , she stopped me. 

Maa: be happy as much as you want. But remember my words, one day you will surely regret your decision and that day i wont come to console you. Let me clear you one thing that the full responsibility will be yours. Neither your papa nor i will be responsible for your any decision henceforth.

My maa's words pierced my heart into pieces. I was on verge to cry.

Papa: what are you saying?

Maa: truth. And please don't stop me to tell her anything. She must know and understand these things.

Maa left the hall.

Papa: don't worry meri jaan. She is in anger. Of course she will be after all her daughter wants to be with a divorcee. 

Divorcee. Can't they forget this for a moment.

Me : papa. Are you angry?

Papa: no, it's just i don't want you to get married to a divorcee as a father. But since this is what you want, i am with you.

I took breathe of relief. But still mom's words were going on my mind.
