Chapter 2 Moving to a new city or back to the old city  

Recently she has found that her father has been talking to a woman on his phone. Her father had never been secretive about anything till now. But now he seemed to be hiding something. Is it just her doubt or has he really forgotten his Daphne, the only love of his life?

After she chose the college, her father and she went to the city to make the arrangements. Akshara knew how sad her father was when she broke the news of going to another city for the study. After coming to the city once she saw her father in a restaurant with a woman and concluded that she was the woman that he was talking to. And that was the night she drank alcohol for the first time and the night she met Leo.

After leaving Leo's room, she goes to her hotel room and freshens up herself. She takes a shower and wears a beautiful dress because now she has grown up and is going to turn a new page in her life. She knocks in her father's room. He opens up his room. She wishes him good morning and hugs him with a big smile. Her father hasn't seen her so happy in many days. No one can explain his happiness. He hugs her tightly and wishes good morning to her. Akshara takes her father for a breakfast and takes him to a Buddhist monastery where 'om mane pembe om' was playing. It is so calm and relaxing.

She says, "Papa, I cannot live without you, you know that, right? I love you the most in this world. And how can you leave me alone here? Can you live without me?" He replies with a smile and says, "You are my everything, you know that right. And how you think I am leaving you alone here. We are going to live together until you have someone who is going to love you more than myself."

Akshara said that no one is going to love her more than him. She hugs him and calls grandma into her home. She says, "We are going to live in another city together and grandma after I come there we are going to pack and live together again. Papa wants to talk to you and I am giving a phone to him. Love you". She hands her phone to her father and leaves her father to talk with her grandma she goes inside the monastery and she prays for her mother and burns an incense stick in her name. She writes a wish on a wooden piece and hangs it on a tree and asks God to fulfill her wish. It goes like this, I wish my father's every dream comes true. He deserves all the happiness and I hope he remembers my mother always. It is not that she wants her father to be burdened by her late mother's memories but it is because the only person she knows who knows her mother is her grandma and her father. So she always wants her mother to be remembered, her likes and dislikes, how she used to dress, her favorite perfume, foods, places, and many more.

After they come back to the hotel, she buys two tickets to White Bridge city where she had been living for as long as she remembers. The place where she is now is Citadel. The distance between the two cities is about 3000 miles and the flight takes about 5 hours. But there is no direct flight, so they have to take two different flights.

They reach the house and Akshara hugs grandma. Everyone can say that she is so excited and everyone including maids and guards are happy to see their little princess happy after a long time.

Akshara asks all maids to pack her father's and grandmother's clothes and books and other kinds of stuff. She is so happy that she packs her own bags. The house they are living in now, it's quite large with a big garden with beautiful flowers and fruits. It is out of the loud, noisy, polluted, and populated city. The air is so fresh, the environment is so clean and it's really pleasing. This is the place where her mother lived with her parents until that deadly accident happened and her mother lost both her parents.

Well, the only thing Akshara knows is that her mother lived there. Once she said that she feels close to her mother here. She feels as if her mother is with her always. But now she decided to move, but why?

Well, it's because first she thought her father was in love with another woman so she decided to punish both her father and herself by leaving but later she decided to take her father out from there so that he can live his life and think about another woman without being trapped with her mother's memories. But still, somewhere she wishes that her father only loves her mother but she suppresses that feeling with the thought of her father's happiness.
