Chapter 126 - Ill Always Find You! (1/2)

|Innaya|

Eshan and I, shifted to the dining hall after he took out some toys and dog food from that bag, and placed it before Fortune. Once he found Fortune getting busy with it, he had silently asked me to follow him.

I poured water in a glass after we sat down. I took slow gulps and stared at Eshan who had pulled his mobile and was doing something on it.

With every sip of water going inside me, I felt myself slowly calming down. I did not realize how thirsty I was until I finished three glasses of water.

”Do you need some more?” Eshan's voice caught me by surprise and then only I noticed that the glass jar was empty.

”Umm...no, thank you!” I blushed at my lost self. I quickly placed down the glass in my hands. ”Do you need? I'll just bring it,” I said as I stood up.

Eshan's hand came to rest on my wrist and I stopped in my tracks.

”Sit down. Let's hear first what you have to say. I don't need anything,” he answered.

”Umm... Oh, yes.” I sat back in my place, putting my hands on the table.

Again, I found myself feeling lost with just a small exchange of ours.

”Here,” Eshan said as he handed me his mobile.

Frowning, I wondered what he was trying to do. Wordlessly, I took his mobile and looked down to see the screen.

Mom::>

Eshan, I know I'm rushing you, and we're lying to Innu. I wouldn't have done this if I had any choice. The sad part is, I don't have any. Life had always refused to give me choices. I don't wish to see my daughter suffering because of me.

She thinks I don't know what she has gone through. Somewhere she thinks it's all my fault. She isn't wrong. It is my fault that she had to suffer.

My sweet child needs someone. I hope you can take her away from this city, from us. My poor child has always suffered because of me. For once, I want to do something good for her.

You promised my father, didn't you? It's a perfect time to fulfill that promise. You need to marry her and take her away. She wouldn't be able to handle one more shock. After my father's death, she is slowly sinking back in the depression.

Her grandpa was everything for her. She was closest to him. And, after his untimely and sudden exist from our life, my daughter is lost.

Right now, I don't want to tell her about my heart condition. It will only worsen her. Four months later my surgery is scheduled.

You'll have to make it before that. Actually, I have thought about the perfect excuse. You bring your family to our place and I'll inform Innu, that the priest said we don't have any auspicious dates for two years after these two weeks.

I'll make her agree to this marriage. If worst comes to worst, I'll take mom's help.

One more request I have to make. Don't tell her about this. She wouldn't be able to accept that all of us lied to her, hid things from her. You might not be aware but she hates liars.

We all know about it. She might cut all ties if she gets to know about it. We'll tell her about this only if I recover. Until then take care of my daughter.

My father trusted you, and I'm going to trust his judgment.

Thank you for loving my daughter. She needs someone who would love her unconditionally and accept her the way she is, without trying to change her.

She needs someone who isn't like me. Someone who will won't burden her and ruin her life. She deserves all the love and care.

I don't want her to end up like me. I want her to enjoy her life to the fullest. Take care of my child, don't hurt her. She has shed countless tears for so many years. I wish her to spend the rest of her life with that beautiful smile on her face.
