Chapter 3 Eighteen Awakening Of DEVIL

Neil dropped his girlfriend at the NY Airport. His heart was in pain and she also didn't want him to leave but it was her dream to join the fashion Workshop in Paris for three months.

Neil supported her and waved his hands while looking at her. She waved back and disappeared from his sight.

"Today is my twentieth birthday but you forgot, baby", Neil whispered to himself and sadly smiled.

"I love you baby and we'll meet soon", Neil murmured and went to his favorite cafe to eat and read his father's journal.

At the same time, A lady came to the apartment Where Arjun and Neil were staying.

"Why are you here ?", Arjun asked her.

"I'm here to see my lovely boys", Lady replied with a sweet genuine smile.

"Aunt Piyali, You meet me so you can go now because he will not be happy to see you here", Arjun said sadly.

"But Neil is my Son, Junie. Please", Piyali said as her heart cracked.

Yes, Her name was Piyali and she was the biological mother of Neil Khanna.

"Aunt! I don't want to see him sad so will you please go back and leave us alone", Arjun said and sighed weakly.

Arjun wanted to reunite them but Neil's heart was wounded by his mother. Arjun and Neil both had the same fate.

Lonely childhood without love, affection, and Care.

Arjun had Mayank (Arjun's father) but Neil lost his father as well as his mother.

Mayank tried to fill the position of Piyush in Neil's life but it wasn't possible because the bond Piyush and Neil shared was innocent and pure.

Piyush held a strong position in Neil's life like Mayank in Arjun's life.

"Today is his twentieth Birthday, Junie. My baby is 20 years old now", Piyali said and her voice was weak.

"Aunt Piyali! I know you love him but his heart is, as cold as ice and as hard as stone for you. And I don't like tears in your eyes either", Arjun said.

"But", Piyali started to say something but Arjun instantly hugged her and simply said, "Just go back, Aunty. It's not the right time".

"I want him back in my life, Arjun, and tell me where I went wrong and that my blood hates me", Piyali cried in Arjun's arms.

When Meera (Arjun's mother), Piyush, and Koohu (Arjun's sister) died. Mayank wasn't in his senses and drowned himself in the depth of depression then Piyali was their only support who protected them from Vikranth Singh Grover (Villain) and his ways to harm them.

Piyali took care of both of them. Neil was her son but Arjun wasn't she accepted Arjun wholeheartedly because of Mayank, her best friend who married Meera and adopted Arjun as his own. Piyali loved Arjun the same way she loved Neil.

Piyali never differentiated between them. But her one decision snatched Neil away from her. When Mayank saw Arjun and Neil were losing themselves and their innocence in the darkness and the loneliness, his senses came back and swore to give them the lovely childhood they deserved.

Mayank and Piyali decided to send them out of India for their higher studies. But after sending them, Neil slowly started to cut himself from her and chose to stay with Arjun and Mayank. Arjun was always in Piyali's touch. She was the only mother figure in Arjun's life and Arjun was attached to Piyali.

"You didn't but our destiny went wrong so leave him at his mercy", Arjun replied to her and wiped her tears.

Arjun sends her back to India ...

Flashback:-

Two years ago on Neil's 18th birthday.

Neil POV:-

"Happy Birthday Neil", Arjun wished me and took me in his brotherly embrace.

I love Arjun and I never felt awkward to confess my love for him.

We are going back to India to meet our father. My Uncle stood in my life at my father's place. Dr. Mayank Kashyap (Arjun's father)

We landed at the International Airport of India and went directly to meet Uncle Mayank.

But Uncle was not there. He never wished us directly in our face. Both Arjun and I knew him very well.

We both entered his room and found my birthday gift on his table with two envelopes. A letter envelope. I smiled and collected my gifts. Arjun scoffed and I laughed at him. Because Uncle has nothing left for Arjun. but on Arjun's birthday, he left gifts for me.

I am only three months younger than Arjun and he loves me and protects me like an older brother.

I went to my room freshened up and started to read the letters. The first letter was from Uncle Mayank.

~Hi Son!

How are you? I hope you and your

My brother is doing fine.

A very happy birthday.

You're 18 now so I wanted to give you the most important treasure of my life which belongs to you. I'm sorry for not coming and wishing you directly but you and Arjun both know what my reasons are.

I'm giving you back what I was holding dearly near my heart. I live my life with your father but after losing him, I am just spending my days just to protect the two precious gems of our life.

Piyush never wanted you to know about his pain but I remembered that one day he told me that if anything suddenly happened to him then give his diaries to his son .. His Son- the one and only NEIL KHANNA...

So my baby I'm returning Piyush's journal book or diaries to you. It's your birthday gift. This book has so many heartbroken moments but also has beautiful memories for you to know.

I love you, Son.

Happiest 18th Birthday to you.

Please take care of your Brother.

Your Dad's Replacement,

Mayank Kashyap.~

I wiped my tears and smiled at his words.

My uncle will never be changed that's why I like him so much and never hide my true feelings from him and Arjun too.

I tore the wrapping paper and opened the box and found five diaries and one special Journal book and Tears were engraved on the cover of it.

I put all the diaries back into the box and took the journal book in my hands.

My hands were shaking and my heart was repeating his beat in unrhythmic ways.

I opened the pages and it broke my heart into millions of tiny pieces.

"She wants to Divorce me and remarry to him"

I felt suffocated. I wanted to cry but at the same time, my heart filled with hate and anger for her. My mother, the wife of my father wanted to divorce him and ...

I just couldn't take it anymore.

She did whatever she wanted for a long time.

After the death of my father, she married another man and that's why I chose to stay with Arjun and Uncle. I hate her.

I immediately left the house for peace and God knows where I was wandering around but soon I bumped into someone.

"Hey you, Can't you see?"

I saw a very beautiful girl with striking blue eyes. She was wearing black skimpy jeans with a white shite shirt and a denim jacket. She was looking very beautiful in the dress.

"Are you dumb ?", the girl glared at him.

"Sorry, Miss! But I didn't see you", I said but my eyes were stuck on her.

"It's okay", She said and started to move but I held her hands and she pushed me.

Anrising inside my body and mind were screaming at me to tear her apart. But soon she said, "Sorry" and my anger flew away.

"Uh hi! I'm Neil"

She looked at me for a minute and replied, "AVNI"

"Avni!"

I tried to call her name and in swift her name rolled on my tongue and I felt a jolt of electricity run into my whole body. It was the first time I was talking to a girl and felt peace in my mind.

End of flashback:-

And from here their friendship started and after one year of friendship soon it turned into love .......

...

Thank you
