Neil made her sit.

Neil: it's not like that in fact you have the complete right to know about my past avni I was in college when I saw a girl and lost to see her she was very beautiful her name was sneha we became friends and then slowly I realized I love her one day I proposed her and she accept my proposal i was very happy everything was good we were in final year when we got engaged and after the college we decided to get married we even start the preparation of the wedding then one day I went to her home and I collides with the table and some papers fell when I bend to pick them then I shocked to see the papers whose were our property papers i felt like some one pull the rug from under my feet I quietly went from there because I thought it's a misunderstanding but I want to check whether it's true or misunderstanding and you know what she said when I asked her that what she want as a wedding gift.

Avni sign what by noding her head.

Neil: she said guarantee because that time I didn't join dad's business I was shocked so I thought to confront her I said her that I don't want to join dad's business and want to do something on my own behalf she was shocked to hear that but that time she agreed with me but from that day her behaviour changed and slowly she start showing her true colour I was sure that she is not the one what she showed first so I lied to her that i left my home and I don't have any thing to  give her except love.

Neil smiles sadly.

Neil: and and after some days she broke the engagment by saying her parents don't want her to marry me they wanted to see her secure future and she she left me and marry a business man just In one month.

Neil's eyes were teary avni feels bad for him she keeps her hand on his shoulder he control his emotions.

Neil: we were in relationship for almost 4 years and she broke that in just seconds I felt like I am fool that I couldn't be able to see her true colour in 4 years.

Avni shook her head.

Avni: that was not your mistake it was true love from your side loving someone is not a mistake trusting some one is not wrong.

Neil was looking at her then he continue.

Neil: after that day i lost trust on love I thought all girls are same and I decided I will not marry in my whole life but because of bebe I marry you and this is reason I told you that I love someone else.

Avni: you still love her?

Neil nods yes.

Neil: it was true love from my side her love was weak or I say fake but I never hate her and you know after one month of marriage she divorced because she marry him for money and after that don't know where she went.

Avni: what will you do if she came back?

Neil look at her and his silence give answer to avni but what she think was true or there was something else meaning of his silence.

Next morning all were sitting on the dinning table.

Neil: mom bebe dad from now avni will not go to her parents home.

All shocked avni look at him she thought like her father he is also applying restrictions on her.

Bebe: Neil what are you saying we never restrict anyone from meeting their parents then how can you do that.

Neil: bebe yesterday her father slapped her and I don't give a damn right to anyone to slap my wife i am silent because he is her father but if next time he do even tried to do then I will forget that he is her father so better she stay here away from them if she want she can meet neela maa but in the presence of us I can't let her go alone there.

All smiles avni look at him and her eyes filled with tears to see his care because he is not like what she thought.
