KASHYAPs , Arin House . . .
I really need to know your story Dua so stop beating around bushes .... ,, Arin growled slightly at her
He was trying to talk to her from two days but she was not opening her mouth
His shouts made her nervous and Dua stared down guilty
It's not easy for me to disclose Everything about me Mr . Arin . You maybe my lawyer but I didn't asked for this .. ,, Dua said grumpily and her eyes were red
But I'm your Lawyer and your case is in my hands that's why it's really important for me to know everything about your past and that too from you ... ,, Arin controlled his temper easily and said in his calm tone and
Dua was confused by his mood swings but still Nodded at him
I already wasted so many days with you . So now tell me Dua otherwise I won't be able to help you in this fight of yours ... ,, Arin said and as a lawyer he wanted to give his best of best but Dua wasn't helping him
She closed her eyes and remembered the darkness that quicken her heartbeats and breaths both . .
Dua was Panick and hurted too but she knew that Arin was right . He was doing for her . Jailor helped her but why ? It was really important for them to help her . It wasn't important for those people who didn't even knew her and her past life but they chose to helped her but why ?
Dua still was in daze and thinking about her life before storm and after storm . .
Darkness , Tears , Pain , Betrayal and Blood broke her to the core . .
Everything was changed in her life . She wasn't that 19 years old girl who happily wandering around the street of Patna , Her hometown . She was not that young soul who loved to spent her days in Delhi with her friends . Her life changed drastically . She spent her precious five years in prison . Now she was twenty five years old with black marks on her life
Dua shook her head and looked at Arin who was looking back at her patiently .
I'm from Bihar , Patna ... ,, Dua said and closed her eyes .
My full name is Dua Srivastava . My father was the owner of a Mart Shop . I was the single child of a single father . My mother died while giving birth to me . My father never remarried because of me ... ,, Dua said and her voice cracked .
She stole a glance of him and found him looking at her intensly . She gulped down nervously and looked away from his gazes .
I was happy in my life , with my father . He loved me alot . After clearing my twelfth board I got admission in best college of Fashion designing in Delhi but .. but .. Everything changed in my life . Delhi Changed me , my life changed me , time changed me .... ,, She said and control her tears which were threatening to fall from her eyes .
Arin gave her a glass of water and she took and gulped down in one go .
If you need time then I'll wait ... ,, Arin said and Dua shook her head negatively
She looked into his eyes and tried to read him but his eyes were blank with no sympathy and condolence . Only a lawyer who was hearing the story of Her DARK World
No I'm ready to disclose my life with of you . I want to end Everything . I want to see my father . I want to go back to my house ... ,, Dua spoke and tears were streaming down from her eyes .
Arin didn't said anything to her Just staring at her intensly .
Pain was visible on her face . .
Dua wiped her tears and looked outside of the window of his house . Dark night was screaming about her dark life . Her life was full of ups and downs but never turned out like this Darkest , Creepiest and Scariest
I was nineteen years old and went back to my Home Town and there a surprise was waiting for me .......
Flashback Six Years Ago :-
Patna , Bihar !!
Dua .. Dua .. Dua .. .... ,, Her name was disturbing her sleep own beauty sleep
Dua ... ,, She heard male voice and knew who was calling her
She groaned and hide her face in the pillow
Dua Utha Jao beta ( Dua wake Up daughter ) ... ,, Her father was shaking her body but she was not in the mood to leave her precious bed and pillow
Papa ... ,, She said in her hoarse voice and sneak peak at her father who was ruffling her Curly hair lovingly
Good Morning Papa ... ,, She said and her father smile at her
Wake up and my friends are coming to meet me and you are still sleeping ... ,, Her father said and she sat down on her bed
Which friends Papa ? .... ,, Dua asked and collected her messy hair
Beta I told you a week ago about my friends that they'll come here to meet and they will also visit Patna Sahib Ji ... ,, Her father replied and Dua slapped her forehead
Sorry Papa I forget about their visit ... ,, Dua said and went to the bathroom .
Her father shook his head at his childish daughter
Come soon . Break fast is ready ... ,, Her father said and Dua looked at her father
Are you not going to Mart ? ... ,, Dua asked and started brushing her teeth
No , Staffs will handle the Mart today .... ,, Her father said and glanced at the picture of his beloved wife who was smiling widely in the picture while holding her newly born baby in her arms .
Her father left the room and he put breakfast in the plates . Dua came and suddenly pounced over the parathas .
Her looked at her and smiled .
Dua dress nicely beta ... ,, Her father said and she stopped eating her breakfast
Huh ? Why are asking me to dress Properly ? Am I not in proper dress ? .... ,, Dua asked and pouted dramatically
No beta ... ,, Her father shook his head and looked at his daughter
I'm just asking you to wear something else ... ,, Her father said and arranged his own plate
What do you mean Papa ? I always dress nicely . I never wear short dresses or anything revealing dress too Papa ... ,, She said lowly and ate her breakfast unwilling .
Her father sighed loudly while looking at his sad daughter .
I'm Sorry beta ... ,, Her father apologied and she smiled at her father
It was true Dua always dress according to the time , situation and place but outside of the house or in her college but not inside of the house . Dua loved to wore anything she got in her hands .
Beta I'm just telling you this that my friends are coming with their families so wear shorts or skirts whatever you like . I don't mind but please spare my lungi today . ... ,, Her father said and Dua choked paratha in her throat .
Her father immediately stood up from his seat and rubbed her back. He gave her water and she gulped down the forcely .
I don't like you to go in my lungi Infront of them .... ,, He said and She understood what her father was trying to tell her
She and her father stared at each other and bursted into laugh .
Dua please spare my lungi ... ,, Her father pleaded and Dua again laughed loudly
No dad I feel comfortable in your lungi and about dressing Properly Infront of your friends naa so don't worry I'll be a good host for them .... ,, She said and giggled by seeing her father's face
( Lungi is a kind of cloth , white or coloured , usually wrapped around the waist the two ends which are knotted together . It's worn by different states of India , mainly South India , Bihar and UP. )
Girls loves to wear shorts but my daughter is unique came from Mars who loves to wear my shirt and lungi ... ,, Her father said and shook his head .
Dua laughed again and stood up from her seat and bend down little Infront of her father . She kissed her father's cheeks and went towards the kitchen
For how many day they'll live here ?... ,,, Dua asked and Her father joined her in the kitchen
Maybe for a week ... ,, Her father said
Will they live in our house ? ... ,, Dua asked and started washing the dishes
No Hotels will be more comfortable and for them ... ,, Her father said and cleaned the kitchen
Then That's good ... ,, She said softly and her father looked at her questioningly
Papa I have only a week with you so manage your friends and their visit because I'll leave soon for my college and I don't like when someone disturb my peace time with you . I came here to spend my holidays with you but are already booked with your friends ... ,, Dua said a little bit frustratedly and her father was staring at his daughter . He nodded his head in agreement .
.
.
.
Dua come meet my friends and their family members .... ,, Her father introduced her . She touched their feets and smiled warmly at them
Her father's friends smiled at her . Her father felt proud of his daughter . She was looking beautiful in blue frock suite . Simple and elegant . Dua looked at her father and asked him through her eyes . Her father smiled and shook his head . Dua noticed his eyes were glossy . She rarely dress up other time she live freely and wear casual dresses .
Dua served snacks and drinks to the guests and Soon they started chatting and Dua felt bore and uncomfortable in salwar kameez . She was missing her father's lungi very much .
She sighed loudly that catches her father's attention . He shared a look with her and she shook her head .
Dua go to your . You have an assignment to finish right ? .... ,, Her father asked suddenly and she was confused but Nodded her head and she left them with their chitter chatter .

After Two days :-
Dua was watching movie with her father and her father was lost in his own World . Dua saw him and asked
What's wrong Papa ? Where are you lost ? ... She asked and her father sighed and looked at her
Dua ... ,, Her father called her and she nodded at him .
Dua ! My friend asked your hands for his son ... ,, Her father spoke and his face was tensed
Dua was shocked and her mouth was wide open .
Dua say something ... ,, Her father asked her
I don't know what to say Papa ... ,, Dua didn't think of marriage in such age early age . She was only nineteen years old and needed to finish her studies and opened her own fashion line
Beta I know what are you thinking . I was same like you at that time when he suddenly asked about your Marriage ... ,, Her father said and tried to explained himself
Papa I'm only nineteen ... ,, She said and her father Nodded at her
I know beta that's why I didn't said anything to him at that time . I want your opinion on this . You're my one and only daughter and I don't want to rush you in any relationship ... ,, Her said and smiled . He also wanted her daughter to stood up on her feet

I'm confused because I didn't thought about your wedding . I mean not soon . Maybe when you'll be 25 then I'll Marry you off but I saw his son beta . He is a good boy and I like him ... ,, He said and sighed loudly
Papa will you give me some time to think because I'm shivering right now .. Papa You know me I'm not good in expressing myself specially with others .... ,, she said and her father understood her points
Beta Take your full time . I'm not pressuring you in it .... ,, Her father said and she smiled widely
Thank You Papa . You're the best .. ,, she said and put her head on her father's laps . He started stroking her hairs .
Papa !! .... ,, Dua called him
Hmm ... ,, Her father hummed in response
Do you like that boy ... ,, She inquired about the boy
Yes beta ... ,, Smile of her father's face accelerated her heartbeats
But I didn't saw him when they came to our house .... ,, She asked confusedly
He directly came at the Patna Sahib Ji ... ,, Her father said and smiled at her
What's his name ? ... ,, She asked and fisted her hands to control her nervousness
Why ? Are you interested in him ? ... ,, Her father looked amusingly at her daughter
Papa I'm Just asking his name ... ,, She groaned mentally
Oh I have his picture in my phone when we clicked outside of the Gurudwara ... ,, Her father said and she nodded and stood up from the seat
Papa I'll see his picture tomorrow . I'm sleepy now ... ,, She said and yawned loudly .
Dua went to her room . Her father followed her . She laid down and drifted off immediately . Her father smile and put blanket over her body ..
God bless you ..... ,, Her father's kissed her forehead and stared at her lovingly
