---Aayushi's POV ---

I was just sitting outside by myself.

My parents were talking about getting me married off.

They didn't care about me, so they've been desperate to get me married off since I finished high school. I had to fight every semester of college to let them let me finish my schooling.

They weren't even at my graduation ceremony.

Wasn't shocked at all. My friends were there and to me that was enough.

"Hi. Do you mind if I sit here?" Some guy asked.

"No. Go ahead," I said.

"Thank you," he said.

"No problem," I said.

I went back to thinking how I'm going to avoid this wedding.

I didn't want to be married right now. I don't know but it just felt like this guy wasn't right for me.

"Kya karu," I ended up saying out loud.

"Excuse me?" He asked.

"Oh nothing. I didn't mean to say that out loud," I said.

"Okay," he said.

Maybe I should ask him for advice.

Ask a stranger? Really? Stranger danger!

But what if he's not like the rest?

What if he is?

"Can I help you?" He asked.

Oh sh*t! He caught me looking at him!

Say yes!

Say no!

"Sure," I said.

I went on and told him everything.

"Just talk to them about it. I think they'll understand. They're your parents," he said.

I nodded.

I wasn't going to tell him how my parents treated me.

"Well, I have to go. See you around," he said and left.

After a few more minutes even I went home.
