Priya's Pov

I came back to my room and crying hard.I could ask him the thing what I wanted to ask him for these two years.I looked at the letter in my hand.

A part of me wanted to know the reason and other part of me doesn't want to do it.But I want the reason behind everything,So I took the letter,opened it and started reading it.

I love you Priya.I truly love you with all my heart.I am thankfull to you for giving me a chance, reading this letter.

I am sorry Priya.I am really Sorry.I don't know how I utter those words to you but I never wanted to hurt you, My Binnu and you never did anything wrong.It's me who did everything.You were always perfect Priya but I wasn't.

I was left with no choice Priya.Though it was a tough choice I did it just for a cause ,For my family.I did a mistake and I am paying for it, Even my family also.

I was completely failed as a son, as a lover and as a friend.But what ever I did was just to save my mom, my family.That time I considered my family over my love.But I later realised it was the biggest mistake I did ever in my life.

Binnu,Please forgive my mistake.Give me a chance.Haven't you ever think of me these days?Haven't you ever love me? If yes,I deserve a chance.

I want to tell you something.Many in this world are not so perfect,I am one among them.Forgiving and Forgetting are two essential things in love,a relation.So,Please forgive me and forget my mistake.Please......

I finished reading the letter.I felt releaved he, himself confessed that it was his mistake and I did nothing.But I am still unaware that what made him, means his family to take such an extreme step.

I was in a dilemma whether to give a chance or not? But the time I arrived here I have made my decision and now it's clear.

I wanted to know the exact reason.I picked my phone and started calling Sowmya.

"Hello!"She lifted the phone for the very first ring.

"Sowmya!"I couldn't stop my tears.

"Are you fine?"She asked with full of concern.

"Yes"I took a second and answered her after few sobs.

"I don't think so!"She waited for my reply.

"Promise me that you would let me know the answers to my questions first"I said in between sobs.

"What?"She stammered.

"Promise me first"I asked her again.

"Okay"She said hesitantly.

"Who forced Arjun to broke my heart? What are those instances?"I asked her quickly.

"Priya, Why are you asking me those things now, that too in this late night"She stuttered.

"I know you won't help me."I said a bit harshly.

"Priya!"She said pleasingly.

"Then tell me sowmya"I asked her again.

"Arjun loves you Priya"She said slowly.

"I need answers not statements"I am so stobburn.

"He did it for his family, Mom"She said.

"What?"I shouted.

"I can't say more Priya but he did it in the spur of the second, for What he is paying now"She said the same thing which was mentioned in the letter.

"Okay!"I was about to cut the call.

"Priya"Sowmya stopped me.

"What?"I shouted at her.

"I will tell you everything but please hide this from Arjun, Please"She begged.

"Okay"I agreed.

"Thank you"She said a bit cheerfully.

"I have to thank you"I replied.

"No Priya,"She said adjuringly.

"Let us met tomorrow"I said and cut the call abruptly.

I am crying hard, its hard for me to stop my tears, Everything happened without my mistake.Why did Arjun do as such? Why can't he let me know the situation? Why did he hide it from me? I am tangled in my own thoughts.I am eagerly waiting for tomorrow and my phone started ringing and its mom.I later realised that I forgot to call mom and felt guilty.

"Hello"I lifted the phone atlast.

"Hello sweetheart"Mom wished me cordially.

"Mom"I smiled soon.

"How is the camp dear?"She asked me.

"Fine Mom"I smiled again.

"Had dinner dear?"She asked me in a concerned tone.

"Yes mom, You?"I asked her.

"I will now"She answered.

"Sorry Mom"I truly felt sorry for ignoring her.

"Nothing like that Dear"She asked me calm down.

"Sorry Mom, I forgot to call you, I just ignored your call"I don't know what to say.

"How a child can ignore her mother?"She said suddenly.

"Yes, How a child can ignore her mother"I repeated the same sentence.

"Good night, Forget everything,have a pleasant sleep"Mom wished me.

"Good night Mom"I wished her and went back to bed.

I closed my, mom's words started rendering in my ears.

"A child cann't ignore her mom and her wishes".

"Arjun!"I just wated to talk to him once.

I picked my phone involuntaryly,My fingers dailed his number repeatedly.He picked the phone after few rings.

"Priya, I didn't expect a call from you"He is so sincere.

"I couldn't stop myself, So..."I stammered.

"Thanks Priya,"He thanked me.

"Let us stop all this"I said briefly.

"What?"He is confused.

"Let us forget everything ...."I stopped the sentence.

"Means?"He murmered.

"I will let you know when we meet next time, bye for now"I cut the call abruptly.

Somehow I could sleep and I woke up next day.I am eagerly waiting for sowmya,I know I have to make a decision at the end of the day.
