A promise: That changed my life

Karan

Later that day, Dave arrested Adah too for helping Rhea in this crime, though she apologized to Siya for her mistake, saying she had become too greedy and Siya even forgave her.

We explained everything to Maa and Kaya they both were having a hard time believing our words, they just can't process that Anjali died by Rhea's hand though I wasn't able to tell Mom that Rhea did all this to get me so I made up a backstory with the help of Dave that Rhea wanted entire property on her name that's why she did all this and thankfully, they somehow believed it.

Unfortunately, I had to tell Sunny in detail since he witnessed Rhea's madness for me, he didn't utter a word for a moment when he got to know but he said he was grateful that we are safe and she is behind the bars for the crimes she committed.

Danny called on Anjali's phone to know why it's taking her time in the police station, he was way too shocked when I answered the call and told him what had happened in the past few hours, he said he can't change anything so it's no use to upset on it, now he's only worried about Esha, I told him that I will legally adopt Esha and will give her the perfect life that Anjali always wanted for her daughter, he ends up the call, saying, he is coming over my place with Esha to check on us, I wanted to tell him to rest but instead I felt that this is the time I needed him the most so I didn't stop him.

Even after everything, there are some unanswered questions that it's become certain for me to know like why Siya's parents hid this from us about that they had two daughters and what promise were they made and why? I know Mom ain't gonna tell me easily so I informed them to meet me at my home tomorrow morning and it's going to be a surprise for Siya and others.

***Next morning***

Danny had come and even stayed with me, we ended up giving each other some company and talked crazily over our silly memories the whole night though he said the only thing he is sad about is that I still didn't listen to him that Kaya shouldn't hang out with Jay not because he likes her but he didn't want her in any trouble which I agreed.

After breakfast, Siya's parents showed up and when she knows this she immediately wrapped her around them and cried her heart out, they tried to ease her, not knowing why she is crying in the first place.

"Adah, what happened?" They asked her.

"Mom, dad, they know the truth now, " Siya said, explaining the entire story to them again, they were also shocked, guilty, and revealed as they burst into the Niagara fall of tears.

"How should we thank and apologize to you, Son," Siya's dad said to me, joining his hands together, crying, "If some other man would be in your place he must have thrown Siya out of the house by now and embarrassed in front of everyone, but not only you supported her you even accepted her with all your heart,"

I held his hands to stop him, "Kamal Ji, don't apologize to me, you are older than me, and what are you saying, I understand your situation, you wanted to somehow protect my parent's words only. You know what, I am way too grateful that I married Siya instead of Adah, " I told him, smirking at Siya, "She is the best thing ever happened to me, " She blushed hard.

"How could I thank you?"

I shake my head in no, "You don't need to thank me but you can do me a favor."

"What favor, Son?"

"Will you tell us the real reason behind the promise you made to my parents? And why you hid that you have two daughters instead of one?"

Siya was shocked by my words whereas my mom spoke from behind me out of a blue, "Karan, what is it?!" She was asking me what the heck I am saying.

I blink my eyes as an indication for her that what I am doing is right, she closed her mouth and join us over the living room where Kamal Ji started the story from the beginning.
