Chapter 53

Riya's POV

" How does it matter if you... what? " I asked.

" Leave me alone!! Go and meet him. " He said with his back turned towards me.

" Dr Parth, what were you saying?? You know, I tried to convince my parents not to come here to meet him but they are adamant that as he invited him, they would come. "

" It's ok that they want to meet him, as it is, you like him too... " He said bitterly.

" I don't want to get married to him. I don't even like him that way. " I said.

" Then tell it to your parents, not me. " He said standing with his back towards me.

"Dr Parth, what were you saying?"

" Nothing! "

" We need to talk... Why did you say that you l.love me? Why did you say that you want to get married to me? " I turned him to look at me.

" What is bothering you?? Is it that I said all those things or that if I really feel that way? " He asked.

" Both. "

" I don't know... I like you and want you in my life. I am going crazy with the thought of you getting married to someone else."
