It took me so much time to complete this chapter and I tried my best to pour every feeling I had felt for them...Btw it's the longest chapter I had ever written in this book yet (or bhi milenge future mein🤧).

----------------------

I S H A' S POV:

I slowly opened my eyes as soft sunlight filtered through the curtains, painting golden patterns on the walls. The air felt calm, almost sacred, as birds chirped outside my window - their gentle songs welcoming the day. A cool breeze brushed against my skin, carrying the fresh scent of dew and blooming flowers. I lay still for a moment, listening, breathing it all in. The world felt quiet and unhurried. I stretched beneath the covers, feeling the warmth of my bed and the peaceful hum of a new day waiting for me.

I don't know why but this day is giving me some feelings of peace. Matlab kuch hone wala hai.

(It means something is going to happen)

I woke from the bed and made my bed and went to the washroom and took a long bath, after some time I came out from the washroom and wore a simple white kurti with blue jeans, took my bag and made my way downstairs.

"Finally uth gayi maharani! Lijiye aapke liye nasta ready hai."

(Finally, the queen has woken up! Breakfast is ready for you)

Maa and her taunts, leave it ab to aadat si pad gayi hain.

(Now it has become a habit)

"Maa leave it na I'm getting late for my college give me the breakfast or I'll have it from the canteen."

"Haa to ja kha lena wahin humen dhamkane ki koi jarurat nahin hai, or jane se pahle papa ko tujhse kuch baat karni hai wo karke jana."

(Yes, go and eat there, there is no need to threaten us, and before you leave, Papa has to talk to you about something and then do that.)

"theek hain"

(Okay)

I packed my lunch and went to papa's room. But what does he want to talk to me all of a sudden? whatever happens it's not going to be good.

I knocked on the door. "Papa?"

"Hn beta come in" beta? Strange!.

"Ji papa bulaya aapne mujhe?" I asked him.

(Yes papa you called me?)

"Hnji Isha mujhe tumse kuch jaruri baat karni hain or tumhen usme raazi hona padega"

(Yes Isha I want to talk to you about something important and you have to agree to it)

'main to gyi'

(I'm gone)

"It's been a long time since I was thinking about it and Now it's the best time to talk to you about this, "I'm thinking that you should get married"

WTH!! NO A BIG NO!

"But papa I'm just 23 and abhi to Mera graduation bhi complete nhin hua hain and abhi to academy main bhi bohat se kam hain"

(I haven't even completed my graduation yet and there is much work left in the academy.)

"Academy me or bhi log hai usse chalane ke liye or baat rahi tumhari graduation ki wo pahle shadi kar lo agar tumhare sasural walon ki marzi rahi to wahin se complete kar lena apni graduation"

("There are other people in the academy to manage them and there is talk of your graduation, get married first, if your in-laws wish so, then complete your graduation from there")

"But papa I don't want to get married now"

"Dekho Isha main tumhari marzi jaana nahin chata, hun mera or tumhari dadi ka yahi faisla hain or tumhen isse hi maana padega, or ek rista humne tumhare liye pasand kiya hain wo log aaj tumhen dekhne aa rahe hain"

(Look, I don't want to know your wish, this is my and your grandmother's decision, and you will have to accept it, and I have chosen a relationship for you, those people are coming to see you today)

"Ji okay"

There's this ache in my chest-not sharp, not loud. Just a dull, constant weight. Like a wet coat I can't take off.

"Haan to kardi par main ye shadi nahin hone dungi" I said to myself and went to my college without saying a word to anyone.

I saw Shurti standing near the main gate.

"Kya hua tujhe itna muh kyu latkai hui hai?" She asked me and widened her eyes on me.

(What happened, why are you so sad?)

"Nothing, now let's go we're getting late for the class" I changed the topic and we went to our classroom and attended the class silently. This time it will be not good to tell Shurti about this because if she gets to know she must create a big drama at my home, So once this is all solved, I will tell her everything.

We attended all the classes, had our lunch and did some gossip with other girls too, and it's the time of arriving the guest at home so I think I should leave, although bhagana hi to hai akhir sabko.

(Everybody has to run away, after all)

I entered my house but it doesn't feel like everyday,Yeah ladke Wale jo dekhne aa rahen hain mujhe.Maa was cooking something in the kitchen, papa was busy in his phone like everyday, and all the servants are going here to there to make everything perfect.

'But why? Everything will be useless'

"Ye lo or jakar ye pahan lena or ladke walon ke samne apna natak mat suru kar dena acha rista hai, ho jaye to jaan bache humari" She gave me a beautiful royal blue saree, matching blouse with a petticoat.

("Take this and go and wear this and don't start your drama in front of the boy's family, it is a good match and if it happens then our lives will be saved.")

'So I'm just a load on their shoulders, like they married didi now they wanna do the same to me, but this is not happening in any possibilities'

A U T H O R

Isha had changed into the elegant royal blue saree with a matching blouse, minimal makeup with some accessories, as her mother ordered to her. But her mind was only thinking about how to cancel this meeting and get back from this useless relationship which is going to tie it with her.

On the other side, Adhrit knows everything from his sources that what is happening with his Sweetheart which he can't trolate. One of his men is keeping his eyes on the movement of Isha's house and some other man is doing their duties near her home and keeping her safe from any harm, since he reached Jaipur.

He was sitting in his office and thinking about her, what if he can't do anything and she got married to that man?, or if she got to know who's behind her home and keeping an eye on her? And many thoughts are lingering in his mind, his thoughts cut off by the call he got from Mumbai.

Unknown person: Sir, now mam got ready for her meeting and the other members of the house are busy doing the preparation.

Me: Is she happy?

Unknown person: As I can see, No, she's upset since her father told her about this and I have heard that she's going to deny this relationship.

Me: Okay give me updates whatever is happening, and if she got into any trouble or this or will this relationship be fixed so don't dare to show me your fucking face.

Saying this he cut the call on his face as ADHRIT SINGHANIA doesn't care for anyone's feelings.

(Expectation: his sweetheart)

~At yaduvanshi mansion~

Isha is holding a tray in her soft hands which is now shaking due to nervousness.

Her heartbeat increased,

Her eyes darkened.

She's coming downstairs, ready in her elegant attire. But her mind was only thinking about how to deny this relationship.

They talked with her and her family, she also talked with them but someone's always keeping an eye on her. But something in her mind is troubling her hardy.

"Jao beta aap dono bhi jake apas mein baat karlo" the boy's mother said to her.

(Go dear, you two go and also talk to each other)

"Ji"

She and him went upstairs in her room. The air is filled with heaviness while lingering many thoughts with it.

"Mujhe ye shadi nahi karni" She said in a low voice while facing the ground.

(I don't want to do this marriage)

"Lekin Isha ji kyu?" he asked and placed his hand on hers.

(But Isha why?)

"Hath chodiye mera, or is shadi ke liye inkar kar dijiye warna acha nhin hoga" she said while protecting herself from his side.

(Leave my hand and refuse this marriage, otherwise it will not be good.)

"Shadi to main ab aapse hi karunga just wait and watch Isha Yaduvanshi." he said with a sharp smirk on his face.

(Now I will marry only you, just wait and watch Isha Yadavvanshi.)

The sound of heavy footsteps echoed in her ears, the world felt more heavier to her and her eyes were filled with fear of darkness, she opened her mouth but she wouldn't say anything.

She went to the hall and saw everyone cheering in happiness and congrats to each other.

'But why?'

"Congratulations beta, and thanks for agreeing to this marriage" his mother said to her.

After talking to each other everyone left, and the house remained silent completely. She went to her room and laid on her bed and thought about this evening.

'Sab to razi hogye par mera kya?'

'Kya meri marzi matter nhi krti?"

"Mujhe ye shadi nhi karni, how can I trust them? Agar unhone ne bhi mujhe waise hi treat Kiya jaise mujhe yaha karte h?

('Everyone would have agreed but what about me?'

'Doesn't my wish matter?"

'I don't want to get married, how can I trust them? If they also treated me the same way they treat me here?')

'Like an unwanted trash'

Thinking all about this she slept in a sleep filled with determination.

~At Mumbai~

Adhrit was sitting on his bed with his legs meeting his chest as tension filled in his eyes. As he got no call from Jaipur since evening.

He was frustrated with many thoughts and fighting with his subconscious mind.

Lost in his own thoughts his phone bangs with some hopes.

Adhrit: Yes!, what happened at her home?

Unknown person: Sir, Mam's marriage is fixed with that guy and he's forcing on her , she doesn't want to marry him still he told everyone that Isha mam agreed to this marriage.

'And I saw him touching her hand while they were having a conversation in her room'.

Adhrit: I want him in my basement Tommorow, today I have some important work to sort out.

"You're driving me crazy Sweetheart, and remember you're all mine and if anyone tries even to come near you they're welcomed to my basement and to hell."
