There was a knock at the door and I went to open the door...

Hello Angel..(Dad said when i opened the door)

Hii Dad..(i greeted back)

Can we talk ? If you are free??

Absolutely!!! Aap ese mat bola karo (i said and opened the door wider and i went inside and wore the robe of my satin night set because i was in one of those sets which would be awkward to wear in front of your dad without hesitating)

And we both sat on my bed ...

How are Nikhil and Nayan doing??(he asked)

Kaafi achaa... they are serious about this...(i replied and he nodded)

How is your driving session going on??(he asked)

Nikhil sikha raha haii... kaafi acha jaa raha haii... haath baith gaya .... abhi modne me dikat aati haii... but woh bol raha haii ho jaayega dheere dheere...(i said)

Drishti Shaadi me sirf 10 din baaki haii... sab kessa hai chal raha haii??(Dad asked)

Acha haii dad sab..(i answered)

Packing ho gayii??(he asked) or sab lejaane ki jaroorat nahi haii yeh humesha tera hi kamra rahega..(he said and i smiled and nodded)

Ho gayi dad packing bas thoda or haii... Aaj thodi cheeze joh sahi thi woh donation ke hissabse mene niche uncle ko di thi...(i said)

Haaa.. use yaad aaya , teri yeh diary thi un donation ke boxes me dekhle...(he said taking out a book from the inside pocket of his suit-jacket and gave it to me , i checked it and it was my personal diary from 2 years back)

Sh-shaayad galti se chali ho gayi hogi... Thank you...(i said and kept it inside the drawer of my nightstand near the bed)

Wese tumne CEO bane se mana kyu kiya??(he asked oug of blue)

Dad not that again...(i groaned)

Just once ... uske baad kabhi nahi poochunga... and you know I'm a man of my words...(he said and i closed my eyes to collect myself and i huffed and opened my eyes)

Kyuki dad i know me yeh handle nahi kaf paaungi... or Nayan Nikhil bohot dhangse kar paayenge...(i lied once again)

Are you sure??(he asked with a pointy look and by his look i know he knows the truth)

You read it...(isaid rather than asking and dad paused)

You did...(i said in disbelief)

I did... know tell me the truth...

You already know that...

I want to hear it from your mouth..(he said sternly)

Dad I don't want to...(i said helplessly)

Drishti now!!(he ordered)

Who doesn't like power dad!!! Instead i lived around you more and knew what power felt like ... I always wanted to be the CEO of RVL or aapne yeh humesha se bola bhi tha ki Me banungi CEO RVL ki..(i said and dad hummed agreeing to my words)

That day...(i continued)

Flashback...2 years back...

So, bhaiya how is RVL doing??(my cousin chacha asked)

Bohot achi chal rahi hai... top par haii India me.. (Dad replied)

Ab kya socha hai??(Another one asked)

Ab Drishti ko CEO bana denge.. bohot mature haii... decision making strong and i would call her a perfect CEO...(Dad announced and i was about to take a bite but i froze and i turned my head to look at dad and he was smiling at me and suddenly someone came from behind and wrapped his hands around my neck)

Congratulations AANKHE...(Nikhil shouted and started moving me left to right)

Thank you Nikhil...(i said , That was the first official announcement from dad and I looked at dad and mouthed him a thank you and he smiled wide and gave me a nod)

(And everyone began congratulating me... and i thanked them all... It was the whole Toy families dinner at our place today... We have one reunion every year , the hole dinner my smile didn't vanished)

And we all cousins went in the same room and adults went in the drawing room... and we girls had a group and boys made there group...

Drishti!!! Yarrr teri toh smile jaa hi nahi rahi...(Neha said)

Yarrr mera dream thaa yehh... and finally dad ne boldiya...(i squealed in joy)

Sahi haii yarr... Tune shaadi ka kya socha haii..(Veena di asked)

Mene kuch nahi socha hai.... pehle career phir yeh sab...

Tu 25 ki hai!!!

Haa mujhe pata haii... par mujhe shaadi wagar me interest nahi...

Hmmm.. phir teri jab shaadi hogi tab ??

Matlab ??(i asked)

Tu CEO banegi , phir obviously shaadj toh ek din karni hi padegina..phir teri identity badlegi , or phir tu Drishti Shikhar Roy nahi rahegi , Tu Drishti or tere peeche tere husband ka naam hoga... People will start recognising RVL as if teri in laws ki company hai woh...

Kuch bhi di...(i said but her words did hit me)

Arrey tu khud soch what about your brothers ... hmm?? Don't you think they have equal rights... tere barabar hi haina dono...(she said and with that my eyebrows frowned and i went in my session of overthinking)

---------

Dad.. mujhe CEO nahi bana...(i said when everyone went and and only Roy mansions people were present)

Yeh kyu bol rahi hai tu??(dad said angrily)

Mujhe nahi bana bas... meri icha nahi haii...(i said)

Tujhe mazzak lag raha hai yeh sab...(he siad more angrily)

Shaayad haa.. isliyee aap meri jagah in dono ko banado...(i said pointing at Nikhil and Nayan)

DRISHTI!! Kya hua tu us time itni khush thi now what?? (Dad shouted)

Me nahi handle kar paaungi dad , mujhe yeh pata haii... bass!!(i said)

Kisne kaha ?? Tu bachpan se yahi toh karti aarahi haii...(Dad said)

Dad sapno me of reality me antar hota hai mujhe nahi karna...

Drishti mene apne bhaiyo ko boldiya haii..

Soo?? Mujhe nahi karna aapne officially toh announce nahi kiya na...(i started getting angry)

Mind you language Drishti!!! Tum apne dad se baat kar rahi ho...(mom said)

Mom please!!! Abhi man to man baat hogi humaari ...(i said)

Man to man baat suni hai naa... you'll be the CEO... (he announced)

I'LL NOT BE...(i announced back)

Drishtii !!(he said)

If you cannot respect my decisions OUT of my house...(he stunned me with his words)

Bhaisahab kya kar rahe ho aap??(Chachu said)

Tum chup raho Dheeraj yeh hum dono handle karlenge...(Dad said and my anger increased)

Aap chachu se ese baat nahi kar saktey!!(i shouted)

DRISHTI!!!

I'll leave your house rightnow... Happy??? (I said and stomped towards my room and took out my suitcase and started throwing mg clothes in it)

Drishti tu pagal hai kya ?? Kya kar rahi haii..(Nikhil said holding my hand)

Nikhil chod let me do what i want ..(I said and jerked his hand off of me)

Tu pagal toh nahi ho gayi haina... tera dream tha yeh... tujhe mil raha hai yeh... tu bina baat ke ladh rahi haii... (Nikhil said following me behind as i was furiously walking from my walk in closet to the suitcase on my bed)

Shut up...(i said and continued my work)

Drishti...(Nayan said seriously entering my room and I looked at him)

Tu galat kar rahi hai...(he said )

Haaa shaayad mere liye galat hai par mere bhaiyo ke liye bilkul sahi...

I didn't answer him and kept on doing things...

Drishti, i am warning you agar tu gayi na me tujhse baat nahi karunga...(Nayan said sternly)

Mat kar... we'll see kitne time tak tu mujhse baag nahi karta...(I said zipping my suitcase and dragging it out of my room)

Drishti you better stop it...(Nayan threatened me)

Else What?? (I challenged him climbing down the stairs)

Drishti! Teri kasam me tujhse baat nahi karunga...(he shouted from behind and now i gulped cause he is very particular about these things but uske liye yeh bhi sahi and i resumed my walk)

Here dad !! Me jaa rahi huu... aapka ghar aapko mubarak... be happy...(i said standing in front of me)

Drishti.... you've embarrassed me ....(hearing these words from him, i felt bad , really bad)

Dad- (i was about to say)

Not a word...(he shouted and i flinched)

I'm sorry Dad...(i said wiping a tear which escaped my eyes and started going out of his HOUSE)

Drishti kya kar rahi haii??(Nikhil said following behind him came chachu)

Sun na tune... i am an embarrassment now... he was proud of me but ek decision meri marzi se and i am embarrassing him.... tu jaaa...(i said sarcastically laughing to control myself)

That is my way of controlling my anger, when i am too angry i just smile or laugh.... because my anger issues are way more than required... but my temper is something i can control... and when i can not control my temper and I'm angry just run... kyuki you won't be able to tolerate my anger...

Drishti itni raat ko kaha jaayegi??? Or koi jaroorat nahi haii bhaisahab ki baat maneki , unka gussa tujhe pata hi haina...(Chachu said)

Chachu agar aaj me andar wapas chali gayi na me Shikhar Roy ki beti nahi... aapko pata hai meri self respect kitni important hai (i said)

Driver ko lejaa...(Chachu said cause he knew i won't listen)

I'll manage...(i said)

Promise kar apna dhyaan rakhegi... hum mese kisi ek ke touch me rahegi... or har kisi par bharosa nahi karegi...(Chachu said )

Promise!!(i said and finally i let my tears spill and chachu hugged me and by his breathings i knew he was crying too)

---------
Flashback ends...

I wiped the tears which ran down my eyes , and dad came forward and hugged me...

Tune apne bhaiyo ke liye sab chod diya...(he said moving back looking at my face and i nodded)

Drishti!! You are stupid..(he said)

I know...(i said and hugged him tighter)

Yeh teri dream thi beta ...(he said stroking my hair)

Thik hai dad... ab I'm happy where I'm...

Abhi bhi chance hai tu bas bol...(he said and i shook my head still being in his embrace)

Tu apne hi husband ki manager banke khush haii??(he said)

It's not that... sahi hai sab life me sab ... chalenedo jaisa sab chal raha haii...(i said to which he nodded)

But tu meri ek or madad karegi??(he said and now i separated ti look at him)

Dad aap bola karo direct...(i said )

Dekh abhi company me kaafi ache or important projects aane waale haii... and Nikhil and Nayan ko time lagega abhi ... toh jab yeh important meetings hogi toh tu unki advisor banke unke saath jaayegi??(Dad said and I thought about it)

Ek hi shart par...(i said and dad nodded ) Agar me busy nahi hui toh aajaungi of Agar Bhuvan ke pass ek chota sa bhi kaam hua toh meri pehle woh priority hogi toh meeting aap mere se poochke schedule karwana... Bhuvan ki all of a sudden meeting aagayi toh me waha tahungi kuch bhi ho jaayee...(i said)

Okayy!!! (Dad agreed )

Itni aasani se??(i asked)

Madam aapko ek baat bhatadu , meri Drishti is very particular about her words and she is really professional, and the last part but most important she knows her priorities... Toh me use behas nahi kar sakta...(Dad said as if i were a third person and i laughed and hugged him again)

I love you Dad..(i said)

Love you too beta...(he said stroking my hair)
