Vaish was sitting on her bed, patting her leg continuously in anxiety. She was continuously biting her nails while lost in thoughts. It was enough for her. She really wanted to make a decisive decision with strong determination. Apart from her decision, she really wanted to stay away from Abhi, as far as possible. Her professional life was going smoothly. India's three best designers selected her for their launch and really appreciated her designs. She is very happy as she will be opening her boutique after a few months, but Abhi's presence won't let her do it. She inhaled deeply and stood up on her feet. She walked near her window, and an idea struck her. 

Vaishu (to herself): He won't find me. If I won't in this country, he could never find me. Yes, this is much better for me. 

She was continuously taking deep breaths as cold freezes were blowing over her face, making her hair fly in air. She had enough, and now she can't take it anymore. Going away from her daughter might hurt her, but she also knows that her daughter has a father standing beside her. A father who can fight for her daughter and take care of her.

***********

Abhi picked Sam up in his arms as he stepped down his car. He slamed the door of the car behind him as he walked inside his small mansion. There, the guard came rubbing behind him. Abhi made Sam lay down on the couch as she slept in the car while travelling. Abhi exhaled sharply as he looked at the guard.

Abhi: Keep my and Sam's bags in my room.

The guard nodded, leaving from there. There, he sat with a thud. He rubbed his temples, closing his eyes. His mind was bursting like a volcano. It was no one who could solve the confusion in his mind other than Vaishu, who wasn't appearing in front of him. Basically, it rubbed away from her own husband. Abhi looked at Sam as she stirred in his sleep. She gently hugged the cushion near her and mumbled something in her sleep.

Sam (in sleep): Mumma, please don't go.

Abhi heard her and felt a sharp pain in his heart seeing her angel calling for her mother. He closed his eyes as tears fell from his eyes. That's when his phone buzzled, and a notification popped up. He clicked the notification, and his anger suddenly rose as he heard the news, which highlighted that businesswoman Avneet Kaur is marrying Siddharth Nigam. He suddenly slammed his phone on the couch.

Abhi (dangerous whisper): I wish, I wish I could stop this marriage. I swear, Siddharth, if I won't be happy in my life, I won't let you also be happy in your life, and I mean it.

He glanced at Sam, who was sleeping before standing up and leaving for the washroom. He splashed the water on his face so harshly that water splashed on the mirror in front of the sink. His collar and hair sank in water as he again splashed water hard. He looked in the mirror to find himself furious.

**********

Sidd was standing there in front of the standing mirror, staring at himself. He was feeling something missing, which is necessary, and he knew what it was. It was his dada's blessing, which he couldn't get. He didn't know what happened to him all of a sudden, but he dragged his phone from the side table calling Abhi.

Abhi, who came out of the washroom eubbing his hair with his topic, popped up to see the caller id. He closed his eyes for a moment and pressed the volume button. His act declined the call.

There, Sidd was inpatiently waiting for him to pick up the call but was disappointed as his call was declined. He decided to leave a voice note, and he did.

Abhi was brushing his hair when his phone buzzled. He picked it up to see a voice note from his brother. Unknowingly, his fingers tapped the play button.

Sidd: Dada, I know you are mad at me, but trust me, I consider Vaishnavi di as my sister, and that's why I am marrying Avneet today. I know you won't believe me but don't worry, I will clear your every doubt on me. I just want your blessings. I want my father's blessings.

The voice note ended. Abhi's breath hitched as he heard the word 'father'. No matter how much how much Abhi is mad but he also knows that he is like a father figure to Sidd. Abhi came out of his thoughts as he heard Sam's yell. Abhi ran outside his room to see Sam sitting on the couch crying while hugging the pillow. Sam hugged him tightly as he sat beside her. She was holding on to his tight as she got scared of being alone. Abhi hugged her tighter, caressing her hair as he got worried.

Abhi (carresing her hair, worried): Sami, see no one is here. Papa is here.

She calmed down as she heard Abhi's voice and gently slept in his father's hug again. For a father, her daughter was the priority right now other than anything else.

*************

Sidd was sitting on the stage being a nervous guy. It is more likely heard that girls go shy and nervous at this moment while in this case, a boy was nervous being surrounded by many famous personalities. No doubt, he sometimes felt himself low in status as compared to them, but he didn't say anything to anyone. Well, that might be the reason for his nervousness. He was still sitting on the stage when he saw the crowd gathered at a distance.

He frowned as he couldn't see anything, but after a minute, what he saw didn't allow him to blink his eyes again.

Yes, there came his Avneet walking towards him with a proud smile. Her looks just killed him , and he forgot to blink his eyes. Avu with her mom, Jai, and other friends walked towards Sidd but stopped as two stairs arrived to reach the stage. Sidd smiled and forwarded his hand. Avu looked up at him and placed her hand on his as he pulled her towards him. Jai and her friends cleered in excitement with claps echoing all around. Avu looked down to see their hands intertwined with each other. They slowly sat down as they smiled at each other. The priest stood there with papers in his hands as he smiled. Avu's dad, mom, and Jai also stood there smiling at Sidd and Avu.

Priest: Do I have the permission?

Avu's dad nodded his head.

Priest: Siddharth Nigam, son of Aditya and Vibha Nigam, do you accept Avneet Kaur, daughter of Amandeep Singh Nandra?

Abhi's words rang in Sidd's mind.

Abhi: You will see, your wedding will be seen by India. I will be the one to dance at your wedding and tease you by taking my sister-in-law's side.

Avu placed her hand on his shoulder, dragging him out of his thoughts. He snapped at her, and she gestured to him. He took a deep breath as priest again repeated the same line. This time, Sidd spoke.

Sidd: I do.

Avu's smile grew wide. The priest repeated 3 more times, to which Sidd agreed.

Priest: Avneet Kaur, daughter of Amandeep Singh Nandra, and Sonia Nandra, do you accept Siddharth Nigam, son of Aditya and Vibha Nigam?

Avu (looking at Sidd): I do!

This repeated 3 times, and that's when the priest spoke.

Priest: Congratulations, you are husband and wife now.

The priest congratulated them, placing Avu's hand in Sidd's. Sidd smiled and kissed Avneet's hand as she looked down, blushing. Wait, did the businesswoman Avneet Kaur just blush?

Well, yes. Everyone stood up and hugged each other, welcoming the new happiness in their lives. The crowd yelled in joy.
