Chapter 3: Argument & Apologies!

Kush’s POV

.

.

.

“You were going to kiss her?”, My mother stated or more like asked. Well, isn’t it the matter of fact that YES, I was going to kiss her after all, she is my girlfriend?

.

“Yes, Maa.”, I muttered in a low voice. Well, the pitch of my voice doesn’t matter because she reads my lips.

.

“I told you to stop hanging around with that girl, but you never listen. Her world and our world are totally different, along with our culture and traditions! If you will not listen to me, then I will send you India, far away from her and far away from this country.”, My mother spat angrily. I tried my best not to shout at her.

.

I just walked away from there, she continued to call my name but I ignored her. I was not in the mood to talk with her.

‘I don’t understand what is maa’s problem? Ella is so a sweet and amazing girl. Why does she dislike her so much?’ I wondered.

Camella’s POV

.

.

“Ella. Where were you?”. Dad’s voice boomed through the hall as I stopped in my track.

.

“Shit”, I cursed. I was almost successful in sneaking past my parents. “Hi dad”, I turned to my father with a smile. I kissed his cheek and grinned as the latter sighed.

.

“Where were you, Princess?”, He asked again, this time softer.

.

“I went to Kush’s home.”, I answered when I heard the sound. I and my father turned our heads toward the source of the sound and found mom standing near the dining table and she had dropped the glass intentionally.

.

“Break up with him. He is weak to be Mafia King. He is a bad influence on you! After a few years, you are going to get engaged with the son of the Russian Mafia.”, She yelled angrily.

.

“Kush is my boyfriend and I will get engaged and marry only him.”, I argued.

.

“No, you won’t. You are the next Mafia queen and you very well know that you can only marry someone powerful and strong man, not some weak and stupid teenager”, My mother insulted Kush which added fuel to my anger.

.

“He is not weak! He is my boyfriend and I will never ever leave him”, I yelled.

.

“Both of you calm dome.!”, My father finally shouted angrily. “Alice gives her some time, I am sure she will engage with Dimitri, she will automatically fall in love with and forget her feelings.”, Dad explained to mom to which I scoffed.

.

“Yeah. In your dreams.”, I muttered, rolling my eyes.

.

“And Ella, she is your mother. Is this the way to behave with her? Are you learning all these bad habits from your boyfriend?”, Dad asked, turning toward me, raising one eyebrow. I glared at him as he stood in the same position. Minutes pass by and I sighed in defeat.

.

“Fine! I am sorry, mom”, I said as dad smiled in victory.

.

“That’s my princess. Now go get some sleep. Remember, you have training in the morning.”, He said, and I nodded before walking to my room.

.

‘What kind of queen I will be if I won’t fight for my love? I love him and I will never leave him at any cost.’, I thought.

.

.

No One’s POV

.

.

“I am sorry, Maa”, Kush apologized, holding his ears. “I didn’t want to ignore you, but didn’t want to stay there and listen to all those insulting words for Ella.”

.

“It’s all right.”, Pragati caressed his cheek. “It’s getting late, you should go back to your bed.”

.

“Hmm. Good night, Maa, and goodnight, Papa.”

.

“Good night.”, Both his parents said and saw him watching, leaving their room.

.

“Don’t worry about him, doll.”, Vyom, Kush’s father, tried to calm his wife. “You can’t force him to change his feeling for Ella. Let him figure it out about her real identity and let him make his decision on his own.”
