'But dad. I love him..' zia's dad slapped her hard hearing this. 'I am thinking of securing your future and you are talking about love? What will you eat? Love? How will you buy a home? With love? Arey leave all that, where will you make your so called bullshit love? In that 10*10cm room amongst 10 other people??' Zia started crying profusely. It was the first time in life her dad had beaten her. But her dad was unmoved 'My decision is final. And if tomorrow i see or hear you are meeting that maharashtrian boy, i will kick you out from here there and then itself.. mind u..never to see your face again in life. You understand...?' Zia's dad pulled her by her arm, banged her back on the couch and left the house.
Her mom took zia on her lap and caressed her hair.. after few minutes zia calmed down. Rubbing her eyes she said to mom, 'Mom he's a very good boy. And talented too. Our future will not be in that slums i bet u mom. Please mom.. please ask dad to meet him once.. please convince dad for me mom.please. ' Her mom hugged her devastated daughter lovingly. Her heart melted for zia. She pressed her slightly within her arms and said 'love you beta. I will talk to dad .. ' Zia hugged her more tightly.. 'But my advice to you is , forget him darling.. '
