FF I Was Made To Love You Precap on Page 61 - Page 3

Arpitha smiled as she put final touches to an invitation. It was a fairy-motif wedding invitation, full of pastel colors, beaded and sequined. It didn't look like a wedding invitation at all and even had a fairy in a blue dress printed in front. Cooling and pleasing to the eyes, she stared at it with satisfaction. It probably is the trickiest invitation she has ever made.

She is a wedding planner, a successful one, for the past five years. She had clients from all over the country, but the owners of this invitation were special; they were her best friend Manjari and her fiance Ran Vijay. The two had finally decided to tie the knot after a five-year cycle of meeting up, steady dating, and finally a ten-month engagement.

she was standing near window and opened the curtains then a took a deep breath...it has been five years since she left lallanpur and she came back a few weeks ago but she thank god that she still has not encountered him...this is a place where she never want to come back but i can't forgive him or pain he caused me yet i don't no why i still love him but now i have Nihal in my life and don't want him to come back in my life..i can't lose Nihal..he is only hope and love in my life...

She sighed. She even got to design their outfits, an offer only done by Manjari about once in every blue moon..

The wedding was due next month, and she also happens to be the Maid of Honor' and the Best Man' Avdhesh Singh Thakur

Avdhesh was her husband. No, he is still her husband. They never really separated legally, so much as a divorce. She just left him that fateful day'

Her thoughts were obscured by the telephone's ring.

"Hello"

"Good Afternoon Arpi.I thought you might still be here. How's things going?"

"Good Afternoon, Manjari." She answered, while staring at Manjari's half-finished dress. It was powder blue in color with dashes of sea green. Peasant-styled, it is fit for the wedding motif chosen by the two.

"I'm trying to finish your wedding stuff, Manjari. Maybe, say, next week, you can have a peek on it."

"Really? That sound's great,Arpi!"

"Yep," She said wearily. Working the whole day left her exhausted.

"Ah,Arpitha, how's Nihal?"

Arpitha's smile was wiped off her face.

"He's quite well, Manjari. But he still refuses to talk to me much." Her voice broke to a sob.

"He's still angry at you?"

"Nope. But he still doesn't want to talk to me'"

"He saw Avdhesh's picture, didn't he? I' I am sorry Arpitha'" Manjari said, realizing what she said, and thoroughly regretting it.

"It's okay, Manjari," She said with a sigh. "I know Nihal has to know about it' One of these days'" She dried her eyes and tried to change the subject.

"hey Manjari...I've already made a sample invitation for your wedding' I-I t-think you should see i-i-it'" She tried to keep her voice from wavering, but she failed dismally.

"Arpi," Manjari said gently, "You dread seeing him again, don't you?"

"I guess so, Manjari, but if there's someone who should be ashamed to meet me, it should be him! and i don't need him" She answered with fierceness as she remembered that day they separated ways'

"Of course, Arpi! Sorry but'as Ran Vijay's his best friend, and he wants Avdhesh involved'. He just doesn't understand'"

"it's nothing, Manjari. I understand they've been friends since forever. but, it's getting late' We better hang up."

She made to place the phone back to its receiver, but'

"Ah. but, Arpitha' Are you getting a divorce?"

"Yes, Manjari. There's no use keeping the damned marriage anymore." A part of her shouted a protest, but she ignored it.

"But--" Manjari's protest was unheard when she slammed the phone to the receiver.

She quckly pulled the cord and began closing the shop.

After a few minutes, she finally locked then door and looked at her watch.

Seven o'clock, it read.

It is really time to be home.
