Bound by Vows

Chapter-58

"No akhilji, i think you're right...You will be my husband in two days. So i should not stop you" i said with

shy face using my acting skills.

I just hope i am not looking fake.

"So, you came on line...very soon though...i didn't expected this...good...very good" he said with a

smirk.

His grip on me has loosened by now. I am just preparing my knee for hitting him at exact angle.

"Hmm... I am sorry for everything i said in anger to you" i said.

"I highly doubt your apology darling. But lets not waste time." He said and i hit him at the same time.

But i missed it slightly. Though it hurt him as he fall sideways but it was not a hard blow.

"Bitch..." He cursed me.

I get up immediately to run from his clutch but he hold my ankle...so my leg was on floor and one in his

grip.

He pulled me back and it resulted in me falling back in a very awkward position.

My leg twisted badly and i cried hard.

"Now i will not leave you" he said and once again hover over me.

I again tried to hit him but he hold my knee.

"Same trick won't work again bitch. Now nobody will save you from me..." he said with a sinister smile.

I looked around for something and i found it...i just need some energy.

Come on payal!!! You can do this...you cannot let him do this.

My breath hitched when i feel his hand on my jeans button.

"I was craving to do this since the time i saw you for the first time..." He said making me disgust.

He went down to kiss my stomach. I feel too disgust with myself.

This got me time to pick up the lamp resting on the bedside table.

"You know i had to do lot of struggle to make you mine...i even invested in your father's business just to

get you...that idiot old man is too naive...just few sugarcoated words and he thinks that noone would be

more suitable for you than me...haha" he said laughing loud.

And i hit him hard on his head with the lamp. He rolled aside in bed holding his head in pain. I think he

got unconscious because he didn't move... I immediately run outside the farmhouse adjusting my

clothes to save my dear life.

I run fast without any footwears as it would be difficult for me to run in heels...i didn't looked behind and

searched for the taxi.

I found the taxi after running for sometime. I don't know if he is stalking me or not. But i just want to

reach home asap.

I cried hard in the taxi.

"Beta, are you okay?" Taxi driver uncle asked me...

But i didn't replied him. What should i say to stranger? That my fiancé was going to rape me.

"Have some water" he said giving me bottle.

"Thank you" i said in my hoarse voice.

Soon i reached home...

"Papa...papa???" I screamed at top of my voice.

"Madam, sir is not here... He will come back in the morning. He told me to inform you" maid informed

me.

I went to the bathroom of my room and stand in the shower.

I rubbed my skin furiously to wear off his touches from my skin. But i can still feel his touch on my body.

I cried, cried for not having my mumma with me...cried for my fate...cried for not having a shoulder with

whom i can share my pain...my suffering...i cried for being a girl... for the first time in my life i cursed

myself for being a girl.

After one hour i came out and changed into night dress. But sleep was far from my eyes. I need

someone to be with me... I am scared.

So i went to nick room. Atleast i will be satisfied he is there with me.

He was sleeping peacefully...I lay beside him on his bed.

I ran my fingers in his hairs. He like it. He says he feel mumma's touch in my care and love.

He woke up with my actions.

"Sorry" i said trying to smile but traitor tears fall automatically. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Di, what happened? Why are you crying?" He asked getting up.

"Nothing i am just emotional mess. Can i sleep with you today?" I asked him.

I didn't told him anything as he is too young and i know his anger. What if he do something in his

anger?

"Of course, you don't need to ask. Come" he said and gave me his blanket.

I slept beside him keeping my head on his chest...He caressed my cheeks.

I closed my eyes as i feel relaxed with him... atleast he is here with me...he won't let me happen

anything.

"Di, i know you're getting emotional due to the marriage" he said but it is not the case nick. I can't tell

you the real reason.

"But don't worry. Your brother is always there for you. Just tell me if anyone bring the tears in your

eyes. I will kill the bastard" he said sounding angry.

"Anger is not good for health. And what killing and all...never think to hurt anyone" i said him in worry.

Sometimes your anger makes you do things which you want to do.

"Ohho di!!! I am not murdering anyone. I am just saying..." He said chuckling.

"Still... promise me you'll not do anything which will make you in problem. You live alone that too in a

foreign land. I don't want you to land in any kind of problem" i explained him.

"Geeks dii, you're talking like we're having our last conversation. Don't worry, i will call you on a regular

basis after your marriage" he said jokingly.

And i never knew that this will be my last talk with my brother...i didn't knew that i will have to wait for

years to talk to him again.

Next Morning...

"Mam, sir is calling you in his study room" maid informed me.

I was getting ready when maid went in...thank god, papa come back...i will tell him everything...he will

have to listen to me and cancel this marriage.

I hugged him as soon as i entered in the study room...i started crying.

"Papa, you know what happened yesterday. What that Akhil did with me?" I started telling him while

crying.

"Yes i know everything..." He said making me shocked. He knows, still he is behaving so coolly.

"You know??? But how? And if you know then you will punish him na for what he did with me..." I asked

him with hopeful eyes.

"I will punish him??? For what? For accepting you after knowing everything about you?" He asked me

in anger.

What is he saying? I am confused.

"Papa...what are you saying?" I asked him.

"I want to slap you hard after knowing everything. Its my mistake i gave you more freedom than

required..." He said confusing me more.

"No uncle, don't...she is naive. She just carried away" new voice said behind me.

I turned to my nightmare standing there...i ran towards my papa to hide from him. I am scared now with

him. What if he again did something like last night..

"Y—you??? what are you doing here? Papa, please send him away from here. You know that he did

yesterday to me...h—he try to rape me" i said and started crying.

"What???" Papa said.

"Whattt??? How could you accuse me with such a big crime. This is not fair...i just asked you certain

questions and you got angry that much that you started accusing me like this" Akhil said with such an

innocent face.

"I don't know what are you talking about... papa he is lying, whatever he is saying is not right..." I said in

panic.

"Ohh, what he is saying is a lie?" Papa asked me...i nodded my head vigorously.

"Then these photographs are also a lie..." Papa asked me throwing photographs on my face.

I looked at the photos...All were mine and Avi's...We were hugging but that was a normal hug for

us...and in few pictures, photos were taken from an angle, which shows that we were doing more than

hugging... Like kissing and all...I looked at all the photos blankly.

"Even after knowing your relationship with that boy, Akhil is ready for this marriage and you're accusing

him with such a big crime" papa said in anger.

"No papa, you're mistaking everything...I don't have any relationship with Avi...Akhil is lying. He tried to

force me yesterday..." I said with tears.

"How can i trust you Payal??? One month back, you're the only one who told me you love that boy and

now you're telling me you don't have any relationship with him. Either you lied that time or lying now.

How can i trust you? When you lie easily with me too..." He said making me regret my every lie.

Just because i lied that time, papa is not believing me now...I am struck in my own lies... And this Akhil,

he played soo well. He manipulated papa soo easily. And how did he got these photos.

I looked towards Akhil who was smirking at me. Don't know how i got the courage, but i moved towards

him and slapped him hard on his face, that too twice.

"Payal???" Papa shouted at me. And this akhil was stunned at this. By this look, i am sure he is

controlling himself because of papa.

"One is for what you did with me yesterday and one is for manipulating papa" i said with anger and ran

out to my room.

Whole day went like this. I had to do all the rituals with the heavy heart. But i won't marry him tomorrow.

I called Avi in night.

"Avi..." I said while crying.

"Cupcake, what happened??? Why are you crying???" He asked me in concern.

"Please come here. I need you... please..." I said while crying.

"What happened??? Tell me?" He asked me.

"I can't tell you anything. Just come here...i will book your flight for tomorrow....pls come" i said.

"Fine, i am coming..." He said relaxing me.

I arranged everything for his coming.

Next Day...

I am waiting for Avi...I am walking in my bridal lehenga...if he didn't come on time, then i will have to

think something else... security is tight but i know how to break it.

Soon i received avi's message...so i went to the backdoor by hiding myself from everyone.

"Cup—Wow" Avi was shocked after looking me in bridal look.

"Avi... come inside... someone may see you" i said and then we walked in the spare room.

"What was the urgency payal??? Why did you called me here? And today's your marriage? You didn't

even told me..." He asked in surprised manner.

Yes, i didn't told him as how could i explain him further why i was not inviting my best friend in my own

marriage.

I started crying thinking about everything.

"Hey hey, what happened? Will you tell me?" He asked impatiently.

I composed myself and told him everything. This time i didn't hide even a thing from him.

He was shocked, surprised and numbed.

"I...need your help Avi...i will ran away from here...i cannot marry that bastard...I—" i was ranting but his

next words stopped me.

"Marry me?" Avi asked me making me shocked.

"Avi???" I said in shocked voice. I don't believe my ears.

"Yes Payal, marry me. But ofcourse, choice is yours. I won't force you" he said

"But avi, how can I???" I asked him...

"Why not? Do you want to marry that Bastard?" He asked me.

"Ofcourse not..." I said.

"Then say yes?" He said.

"But avi, i cannot destroy your life because of my problems... You must be having some expectations

from your future wife and I may not fall in that category...no...i can not dest-" i was saying but he

shocked me with his words.

"I love you" he said making me numb.

I started laughing.

"It's not the time to Joke avi..." I said laughingly.

"Do you really think I am joking at this time" he said rudely.

That means he really lo-love me.

"B-but how???" I asked him.

He hold my hands in his.

"I don't know when and how... But I know one thing that I love you I really very love you... Initially I used

to think you as a spoilt rich princess...the way you used to prank with everyone...i didn't used to like

that but slowly slowly you entered in my heart...and don't know when but i even started liking your

pranks, your bubbly nature and your care for everyone...i love every damn thing about you..." He

confessed while i gulped my saliva.

His eyes showed me nothing but truth and pure love?

"Say something" he said caressing my cheeks.

"I... I don't know what to say..." I said.
