    You had everything people only dreamed of. Being a daughter of a renowned businessman, you were provided with luxury your whole life. Your father adored you and raised you like a princess. He thought you were the cutest, always smiling and laughing, hence you were named "Pari", fairy. You were no less than a fairy to him, practically a blessing from God. You never felt you lacked anything, even if you were deprived of speech.

    Though your happiness didn't last long. At the young age of 25, you had to witness your father, your most loved person in the entire world, get into a serious accident. He survived, though only barely. That made him realise how weak and old he is getting and he frantically tried to think of a solution. A solution to be able to keep his business running as well as giving his daughter the love and care she deserves.

    He decided to arrange your marriage to his friend's son. A young and successful CEO, Vijay. You got married to him almost immediately, getting no time to meet with him except the few formal dinners your father and father-in-law planned.

    You were now lying in your bed, thinking about how your life took such a strange turn. Vijay might be handsome and accomplished but he was not certainly the caring husband your father had in mind. He often just ignored your existence, as if your presence alone would ruin his day. The only words he had spoken to you were "We will have separate bedrooms." after the wedding. He didn't like you at all, he thought of you as a burden he was forced to carry. Your deafness didn't help.

    Today was your birthday and you thought about how this day used to be basically a festival back at home but here, no one even knew about it. You didn't want to get out of bed, feeling too depressed to do anything.

    Suddenly, the door to your bedroom opened and Vijay walked in. He looked different from usual, softer, gentler and.. flustered?
