《CAN I??》 CHAPTER:26 CHAPTER:26 VEDANTH POV: It''s seems like a dream, I spent a night with my brother inw family. This family too good for our family and even they knew what happened on our house, they received me like their own. You know what, I wish I could born for my brother so I can live with this family. "You can call me to bring coffee you know!" Satya vadina walked to me and gave a coffee. "No, they are sleeping so I thought to drink with them." I said seeing my brother and her brother who are sleeping like its end of world. She smiled and said "Today is Sunday, so they won''t wake up upto noon and that''s for sure" I nodded agreeing that,I''m an early bird while my brother is night owl unlike me. "Vadina, actually can I stay here for few days" I asked unsurely. She ruffled my hair "When you started being so formal with me" I frowned at her and said "who said I''m being formal,I''m informing you That''s it" and covering my words. Sheughed out loud which startled Samrat annaya. "What happened Satya" he asked while cupping her face. See, I told you na. They are just perfect for each other. "Oh.. Mr, nothing happened for your lovely wife. Can you wish me first" I said while pouting at him. He red at me and kissed my cheek. "Good morning ved..is it ok. First let me check my wife" again he asked her after confirming that she is ok, he puffed out air and rxing his shoulder, cing his head on herp. "I can''t see this romance...I''m going to aunt and uncle" I said and went out of room. I carried the same smile throughout night and this day morning. "Annaya, I will juste back. Have to meet someone" I said while getting ready to meet Aadhya and ansh. "Don''t forget to buy flowers on the way?" Vadina said. "Oh, someone is in love" Kavya yelled from living room. "Stop it guys, you''reughing at him for no reason" dinesh said taking my side. "Thanks bava (brother inw)" I said side hugging him. "But don''t forget to show us her photo" he saidughing joining them. I red at them and went out but deep inside I enjoyed. Hiring a cab, I reached Aadhya home.. I knocked on door, tapping my foot impatiently waiting for her to open the door. She opened the door wearing pyjamas and hair strands fell on her face from bun she tied. "Ved" in excited voice... wait wait excited did I hear it or its just my imagination. "Come in...what are you waiting for" I nodded and went in but to my utter surprise there is a man around my age ying with ansh. Who is he!? I sat on couch opposite to them Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org. "Uncle...." Ansh said whileing towards me. "Champ" I hugged him "Uncle....cee mama boht (bought) me a gifts" he said while showing me what he bought. Mama...that means brother to Aadhya. I smiled and gave break to my unnecessary thoughts. He excitedly showed me by throwing ball. Iughed at his attempt and showed him how to held the ball. He tried to held and throwed it.. We both yed game more like, tried to y game. But it''s so rxing to spend time with ansh. "Ok...let''s eat something and you can y again" Aadhya voice bought me back. "Aaru, what you made today!" Advith asked her. "Vegetable soup and chicken biryani finishing with mango pudding" she said "Atha" someone shouted "Harsh" Aadhya yelled and bend down to hug him. I saw that a women stood there smiling at them, holding a baby in her hands. Advith stood up and took baby in her arms and kissed that women hair. May be they are married... "Who is he!" Harsh asked Aadhya "Oh..his name is ved" Aadhya is about to say something but ansh cut her off "He is my favte (favorite) uncle" he said which made me smile. Harsh eyed me and asked "won''t you be my favourite uncle" Iughed at his cuteness and said ok "But what do I get in return" I asked tapping my cheek with my point finger indicating to kiss me. He smiled and kissed me immediately but ansh cried saying that I will be only his favourite. My eyes widened...what I have to do now "Ansh...you can''t say that" Aadhya scolded him while seeing Harsh on verge of crying. I took a deep breath and held Harsh hand and carried ansh with me to living room. I told them not toe there particrly. I made them sit beside eachother and I sat opposite to them "Your mom told me that Harsh and you are friends." I asked ansh and he nodded "Yes" Harsh also said while nodding "Hm... then best friends can''t have same favourite uncle!?" I asked them trying to make understand ta same time. "But I do love both of you" I said while observing their expression Ansh nodded and turn to Harsh "Uncle is our favte" he said making harsh smile. I kissed both of them and carried both in each of my arm. I made them seat on their chairs and all of us started eating and Aadhya, Sushi went to tuck children sleep. Without my knowledge, I gained two families by losing my own family. Rather than feeling lonely I felt so happy!! Once I questioned my annaya that is it possible to be this happy after leaving parents and everything behind but he didn''t answered me, now I got to know the answer. I don''t know about any other family but I felt so happy to be like this. Spending time with loved ones.. "Ved.." Advith called me "Huh" I stared at him "Do you like aaru" he asked me "Don''t try say that no.. because i have seen the way you staring at her" he demanded me. "No I don''t like her" I said Advith stared me like I''m a alien CHAPTER:27 CHAPTER:27 VEDANTH POV: Iughed at his expression and said "Because I love her Advith...it''s not just liking" Heughed and hugged me tightly. "You know that you''re not her first" he said while observing my expressions "I may not her first but I will make sure that I''m the best for her" I said while processing the way Girish and nikhil behaved with her "She is going through alot" I cut him off "It''s just down face she is going, may be I can''t take out all her worries but I''ll make sure to share them and lessen her worries" He smiled and wiped his tears. But both of them are unaware that Aardhaya is listening to them. "May be I can''t move on" she said loudly enough for us to turn our heads. "Aaru..." Advith started but she showed her palm indicating him to stop. She looked straight into my eyes and again questioned me. "What if I can''t move on...call me stupid or whatever but I tried to move on.. I can''t" she said while sobbing hard. "I thought that I hated him but when I saw him in my office, I knew that my feelings were never faded away but they were suppressed due to anger" I fell down on ground and cried alot "How fool I''m to think that he will choose me ove her" then she covered her face with palms. "Yet again and again, he hurted me but my heart doesn''t listen to me...I wanted to move on but I can''t" she shouted loudly. I kneeled down beside her " I''m also facing the same situation, my heart doesn''t listen to me even when I said that you can''t move on from him" "Ved, you can''t understand I''m a mom. Nobody will ept me to family" she said "Nobody isn''t necessary to us. Just a chance to prove that you can move on" I said with hope. "CAN I??" She mearly whispered to herself "You can, trust me just once." I said almost on verge of tears. She thought for a minute "Aaru.." it''s Advith "Ved, can you give us a minute" he said I nodded and went to kitchen to drink some water. I didn''t mean any of these to happen like this.. Will she give me a chance!! God..you''re so cruel..why you have to send Aadhya at that time. Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. When I''m debating with my thoughts, Advith came to me and said go Literally I ran even it is just small distance. She is sitting on couch thinking something. I cleared my throat to gain her attention. She stood up immediately and fidgeting with her pyjama pants. "It''s ok, if you don''t want to" "No I want to. I mean why not you are good and " she is saying something but my mind and heart both are clouded with happiness. "Aadhya, it''s not just chance or something. I''m very serious about us" I said thinking that may be she will back off saying she can''t. "I want to start a family with you and ansh. I''m seeing my future with you." "I too want to have a normal family" she said and I hugged her tightly. With so much hesitation she hugged me back. But our moment of happiness got disturbed by someone clearing their throat "So..it''s Vedya time" Advith said We broke hug but I held her by her shoulder. "Vedya?!" Aadhya questioned him "Yeah...Ved Aadhya= Vedya" he said shrugging off his shoulders Iughed and said thank you for wonderful name. She freed her self from me and went to check on children and sushi. And we all spent rest of Sunday by talking, ying with children and eating. Advith and sushi went to their ce after having dinner, here I''m ying with ansh and waiting for Aadhya toe from kitchen but she isn''ting! What she is doing?? "Ansh,sit here I''ll meet your mom ande" I said but he is too stubborn "Nooo" he said clutching my shirt tightly. Having no other option, I carried him with me. When we both reached kitchen there she is cleaning dining table. But she cleaned it after dinner right!? I thought and went to her. "Aadhya" I called her "Ved" she said like she isn''t expecting me. "What are you doing" I asked her "Why do youe here, I will clean ande. You both go" she bbered "Yeah... cleaning same thing which is already cleaned" I asked her raising an eyebrow. She started fidgeting with cloth in her hand. I made ansh sit on table and went near her. "Am I making you ufortable" I asked her "No" she immediately replied "Then why you are creating excuses to talk to me. I''m observing from the talk we had." "It''s not like that" "Then what is it!? Advith forced you to ept this tight" I said while pointing the finger between us. "Noo" she said and her eyes widened at my question. "I''m feeling scared" she is saying something but I continued it "Of me leaving you.. right" I asked her She nodded and said "what if you got bored of me or your family doesn''t ept me" she asked me. "What if they don''t ept...we already are a family" I told her "You, me ansh and Advith,sushi Harsh and Manvi." She faced me with tears in her eyes. I wiped them "Nikhil doesn''t know how to reserve a diamond with him but I''m not a fool,I know how to protect and keep what''s mine" while kissing her forehead. She didn''t expected this...even me too Ansh pped his hands earning a small chuckle from me and Aadhya at same time. I picked him and kissed his cheeks "Leaving you means leaving my champ and our little family. Am I looking like fool to lose a family" I asked her. She said sorry and hugged me. Now it''s my turn to get shock. "Don''t make me regret of trusting you in short time" she mumbled against my chest. "Never" I said while wrapping my free hand around her enjoying the current moment. AARDHAYA POV: I always have a dream of having my own family. But it neverpletes without a man for a women. That''s what I thought when Advith told me don''t act like fool, ved will definitely keep you happy. But what if he don''t want me when someother enters in his life. Ipletely ignored him after our little confession. What can I do, whenever I trust someone they betrayed me leaving me all alone in world to face. They made me like this and I''m wasting my life for them. I can be happy too. My thoughts broke when ved called me How sweet of him right!? I''m such a idiot topare Ved with Nikhil. Without any hesitation I hugged and him and said don''t make me regret. His answer made me smile.."never" Now I''m starting to believe that I CAN live a normal life like others. Both souls are enjoying their start of rtionship. Little did they know thier life''s never gonna be same after today. CHAPTER:28 CHAPTER:28 VEDANTH POV: Literally I''m doing full mass dance inside because if I do it ansh will get scared and neveres to me. I''m screaming in happiness, I can''t actually tell you how happy I''m. My love and champ are in my arms, what else can I wish. Currently ansh is ying in Aadhya arms and it''s my time to leave them, but I don''t want to. Samrat called me for more than 10 times but I didn''t attend his call. May be I should call and inform that I will bete. With that I messaged him that I will bete but his reply left be Dumbfolded. Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org. Call me ASAP. I excused myself and called him. "You idiot, how many times I have to call you" he shouted as soon as call connected "But what happened annaya?" I questioned him. Why he is shouting!! "Come to home right now..no excuses" he said in Stern voice. "But annaya, we just started" he cut me off "Shut up.." he shouted and Satya vadina shouted him. "Hello...ved" it''s vadina "Vadina...tell annaya that I can''te home" I asked her "See.. ved, Athaya (MIL),mamaya (FIL) needs use soon." With that she hung up. What...they are calling me toe home means our parents home "Aadhya.." I called her and she turned to me "I have to go,had an family issue" I said to her feeling guilty that I can''t spend some time with her. Her expression immediately changed. "So sorry Aadhya can''t be with you for now but trust me I will "No no..it''s not" I cut her off "Sometimes eyes talks alot than person, so I know how are you feeling right now" I said to her. "Can you give me your number, so that I can talk to you" I asked her giving my mobile to her. She nodded while she took mobile and I took ansh. "Bye champ, see you tommorow" I said and kissed his cheeks. Even he knew that I''m leaving, that''s why he isn''t giggling like everytime. She gave me my mobile back and about to take ansh but he started crying loudly. "Ucle..." He is saying and crying He made my situation too worse, I don''t have much time too. "Ansh, listen to Amma. He is going to buy you lots of toys..isn''t ved!" Aadhya said while sessfully taking ansh from me. "Yes.. I will buy you only if stop crying" I said within next second he stopped crying. I chuckled and kissed him, and "one more thing champ call me nanna (dad)" I said while ruffling his hair. From corner of my eye, I saw Aadhya eyes filled with tears and her face reflects proudness. I wiped her tears and kissed her head.. "Don''t miss me too much, I wille back quickly" With that I went to my home... But I didn''t expect that I''m about to face storm there. AARDHAYA POV: Oh,this is what family feels like is the only feeling I got when I saw ansh and ved affection. The way he talks with ansh, he makes ansh smile and what else can I expect from God...!! There will be only one person in life,who understands you without uttering a word. It has been 5 hrs since he left for his home but I can''t stop thinking about him. How can this happen!! Why can''t I stop thinking about him. May be I should call him. You stupid, didn''t you listen what he said it''s family issue my inner self reminded me. But I can message him him right?! With that I took my mobile, if you are thinking how did I get his number. How can I wait for his call, what if he forgets to call me. So I gave a call to my number. I searched his name "lifeline" on contact and started messaging him. "Hey...you said you will call" I typed and undo it. "Hey..it''s me Aardhaya" I typed and undo it again "Hey" I sent it. I waited for his reply but none came. It''s almost 3 in morning when I slept and I woke up immediately after an hour or so. I''m feeling so restless but I''m unable to sleep. Like a robot I did everything and went to office. I''m doing work but my full concentration is in my mobile. I''m so engrossed in nk ck screen infront of me when ansh called me showing his finger into mouth. Shit..how can I forget it''s already lunch time. I called security and asked him to pick something from restaurant for today as I''m not able to go home. He dropped something and I''m feeding ansh when my rang. I put in speaker as there is only ansh with me. "Hello.." his voice soothed me down and my worries which are hiden fromst night. "Hello..ved" I called him "Aadhya, sorry couldn''t reply cause of situation." He said in hurry "That''s fine, how is there is everything settled now" I asked him "Not really but it depends on me whether to make my parents happy or leave them" he said " They are your parents you''re talking about, how can you leave them" I frowned at him and he chuckled. "Ok..wait I will do video call" with that he hung up. Without my knowledge I made sure that I''m presentable. And he did with in a minute.. As soon as ansh saw his face, he went closer to my mobile thinking it as ved. I smiled at ansh held him tightly in my arms. For a good 5 minutes ved talked and ansh bbered. "So..." Ved said to me "So..." I imitated him Heughed and captured that moment through screen shot. "Ok" when I was about to say something someone came to his room. "Mom and dad are calling you" is what he said and went away ring at me. "Ok" ved replied and turned to me "I wille and meet you in evening" he said and hung up. I felt so disappointed but he did call you right! Remaining day went by blur arranging a few things for Tara marriage. Now it''s time to meet ved...I excitedly thought myself and came to home early to get ready. I wore ck saree matching with ck earrings and ne applying eyeliner and some foundation along with some nude lipstick. Its 6 now but he didn''t came I dialed his number but he isn''t answering. I waited for 3 hours but there is no sign of him. After 100 of calls and texts, I changed into night ware and fed Ansh. I made him sleep and when I''m about to lock the door, there is knock on door. It''s almost 15 to 10 who will be at this hour. May be ved, this thought made my heart smile. But there is someone who isn''t ved. "Who are you?" I questioned him but instead he came inside and closed the door. "You want ved..." He said I gulped down in fear, he is taking slow steps towards me and simultaneously me taking back steps. "Do you know who he is!" He shouted making me flinch. "Women like you deserve to be in his bed not in his wife position!" He said Every word broke my heart. But I gathered courage and asked him "Who are you to say that..he loves me isn''t that enough" "Ok.. let''s see how will love the one who got raped!" With that he started forcing me. I''m not good writing these stuff so bare with me I kicked him hard on his man part I''m about to run but he is fast than I imagined caught me by my waist and pped me hard. I couldn''t scream because of ansh,if he sees ansh what will he do then!? That thought made me stop screaming. I started hitting him but no use, butst thing I remembered is he pped me hard which made me loose consciousness. CHAPTER:29 CHAPTER:29 NIKHIL POV: "You know it''s not her fault right?!" I shouted at me, seeing myself in mirror. "You should have apologized for your behaviour and talked like an adult but instead you started behaving like a maniac" "It''s all Yuktha who did it! But you believed her but not aaru.. why?" "Think about her side too, how much she suffered being alone. How she survived without anyone." "Literally noone was there for her. Not even you" I shouted loudly Even when I realized now, it''s toote. She is engaged to someone else But why do I feel so uneasy seeing her with him and Ansh, he is literally hating me. How can he not when you left his mom like a orphan my inner self scolded me. Suddenly breathing became difficult, and I''m burdened with my acts & guilt. I wish I could go back and change our rtion. When I''m drowned in my guilty, Yuktha came and sat beside me eating something. From the day I came back from Aaru home, I''m not same like before I''m thinking about her 24*7. If you''re thinking what happened for my sudden change, but it''s not sudden. I went to her office to talk to her but by seeing ansh with her, I lost my senses. I thought how can she not I tell me about my son!? But I failed to think about her side too. Even when mamaya said that aaru is his daughter, I only thought ansh. How I became so selfish?? "What happened,why are you crying!?" Yuktha asked me while eating her mango pudding. Am I crying!? I touched my face to get proof, but s I''m crying. Why now nikhil, everything is over now. No need to cry, you sessfully destroyed your sweet life. My inner self mocked at me. You know what, we can lie to anyone but no to self right!? "No I''m not.. how is your health" I asked her "Oh..you remembered I thought that you forget about me" she replied sarcastically. I fake smiled and sat beside " it''s just some random tension, tell me how is your health and our baby. I can''t do another mistake, I will take care of Yuktha and baby. May be I can ask Yuktha why she is did that but her health condition is stopping me. "We are good and can you take me to shopping." She asked me "Sure but suddenly why my ammu is interested in shopping" I asked yfully raising my eyebrow. She red at me angrily and said "you forget" Shoot me...there is only three days for Tara engagement. "Of course not, just kidding you" I somehow covered and made her smile. I can do anything for her smile, call me fool but my love for her made me blind and currently I''m unable to see her agenda behind aaru, mine separation. Keeping aside all my thoughts and feelings,I told her to get ready and I went to meet my mamaya. I knocked on his door and he opened it."what happened Nikhil?!" "Nothing mamaya, just came to talk about something" "What is it?!" "Well, is aaru agreed for Tara marriage arrangements?!" "Yes and why you''re asking for her!" He questioned "I don''t allow you to do anything with aaru and ansh. We separately went to her home just to make her ept to be with us." He shouted at me "I already told you to keep quite and not to talk bull s**t. Again you screwed everything." He shouted loudly this time. If you are wondering why we went to her house. Let me tell you then, we had to go to her house then I have to tell her that I choose you. Then she will agree ande with us. Once she gets to know that we care for her then we have to tell her truth that she will be here as mamaya daughter not as my wife. But everything backfired, with that stupid would be of aaru. I didn''t expect her to talk like that but when I started thinking from her side, I realised how stupids I''m to leave her. "Mamaya, what she said is right! We can''t make her live in lie. Her life is getting better now, it''s best we leave her life for good. I just asked you because I have to ask her apologies." I said and went away immediately. I decided not to disturb her and I will apologize her for what I said and I did. May be apologizing makes me better. what makes me uneasy is my feelings for her. It''s so wrong to have feelings that too when I have a wife and child, but when I saw her with him that made me realise I have feelings but I can''t express or show her. How funny right!? With a foolish act of mine I lost her and with other person I came to know about my feelings. I huffed out the air and decided to out for a drive and drink. It''s almost 3 hrs since I came out and I''m driving towards her home, don''t ask me why cause I don''t know. I''m waiting on my bike outside her house for an hour but I don''t have courage to go her. Can I? Go to her or meet herter.. It''s already toote I thought but you''re not here on bad intention right!? My inner self told me for first time it supported me. When I''m about to go, I saw a man went in and I decided to wait for sometime but when I listened N?velDrama.Org is the owner. some sounds, I thought to check and when I went in my eyes automatically widened. Immediately I shouted at him and kicked him hard. When I''m about to beat him, he pushed me and ran out. "Aaru" I gently tapped her cheeks and tried waking her up but no use. Then I sprinkled water on her face, the she gained conscious. Thank God, she just fainted. When she gained conscious she started crying by covering her face with palms. "Aaru..aaru" I called her but she isn''t listening to me at all. "He didn''t do anything, I came here..plz stop crying" I tried everything to calm her but she is crying badly. So I carried her to room, what I liked is she didn''t protest. I ced her beside ansh and covered her with nket. This time I came but what will happen when no one was around her!? God how she is living alone in unknown ce for 3 years.. She slept immediately may be because of crying. I sat beside her in a chair and started apologizing her, I know she is asleep but for my satisfaction. I touched her feet(as a gesture of apologizing) for what she did for me, my family and I slept without my knowledge. CHAPTER:30 CHAPTER:30 AUTHOR POV: Feeling thirsty Aaru tried to wake up from sleep but whenst night incident shed infront of her, she shouted which startled both ansh and Nikhil. "Aaru, what happened!?" With that he stood up and sat beside her. "He. H e came and" unable to continue she cried holding his hand tightly. Nikhil covered her hand with his and gave a squeeze telling her that it''s ok. Ansh cried loudly to gain aaru attention and he seeded. Aaru tried to lift him with her trembling hands but failed, nikhil understood her situation and tried to help her but by observing ansh behaviour towards him he hesitated. Irrespective of his hesitation, he helped aaru and picked him in his hands. Instead of stopping ansh cried loudly again. "Ansh stop crying, see Amma is here." Aaru tried hard to make him stop. But poor soul is suffocated in between their parents tension and his mom state. May be he needs some fresh air nikhil thought and picked him in his hands. "I will be back in a minute" he said to aaru but his heart broke when she replied. "Is this your n, to send a person to attack so that you can take ansh with you" "I may be bad at taking decisions and stand for my dear ones but not that low to do this kind of things" he said and went out of house but not too long. After a few minutes and saying different things ansh calmed down. Nikhil kissed his forehead lovingly and said "sorry, I couldn''t be there for you. I love to be your father but your mom needs someone who will love her like she does, for good I''m taking this decision of leaving her and you. but remember I love you." He said like ansh could understand everything. Ansh is listening nikhil with all his attention. After nikhil finished his talk, ansh wiped nikhil tears with his little palms. This little act made nikhil smile,nikhil kissed ansh palms, within minutes ansh slept in his arms. Nikhil took his mobile out to click a picture when he saw notification and missed calls from his brother. He felt happy that his brother called hil after long time but he decided to call backter. Finally he took a picture of them together and saved it. He smiled looking at picture and went in. When he went inside, he saw her messaging someone. This clicked him and he said to call ved. Aaru tried calling ved but everytime someother is answering it. "Ved is in work, don''t call him" It''s like 3 times ast she decided to drop a message so that he can call when he is free. She felt so sad that she needed ved to be here at this time but he couldn''t be here. "I already did but he isn''t lifting" aaru said with sad smile. "I will be here till vedes if you don''t mind" nikhil said he don''t want to leave her like this especially in middle of night while cing ansh gently in bed beside her. "It''s ok, you can go. Your wife will be waiting for you" "It''s fine, now you needed me the most." Nikhil himself shocked by his words. "It''s nothing whenpared to spend a night in busstand" aaru said remembering tht night which changed everything. "Aaru, I''m so sorry. I shouldn''t have did that to you" nikhil said sincerely Seeing nikhil sincerity aaru felt happy that atleast bhe realized but what if he will take ansh away she thought. Just a mere thought made her mood sour, nikhil observed her expressions and said "I will pay for my mistakes and punishment is staying away from you and ansh." "This is my word, you can trust me and one more thing count me whenever you need help don''t hesitate... please" he said with pleading manner. Unknowingly she nodded at him, but she is thinking that can she trust him again?! Or it will be a mistake to trust his words!? There is afortable silence between them but both are in indulged in different thoughts. He is feeling so happy that atleast from now she will be happy with ved but she is thinking why her everytime. When she decided to move on nikhil came back and told her that he is sorry. Will her feelings towards him fade away or!? She trying hard to fight with her inner feelings and emotions, silently praying for ved toe quickly. Unknown to them both nikhil and aaru slept in thier sitting position. VEDANTH POV: Have you ever in a position that either you choose you will be dying or seeing your loved ones die. It''s like a hell right!? But now I''m in a that position. I shouldn''t havee here leaving Aadhya there. You guys are confusing right!? What happened after I came to my parents. Let me tell you... shback: I immediately drove to my parents house.. there stood my dad, mom, Samrat annaya, Satya vadina on their right side and Uday sitting on my parents left along with Radhika vadina. "Vedanth" it''s my dad I nodded and walked to them. " What happened, annaya!?" I turned and asked samrat Samrat stood there fuming in anger without saying anything to my question satya vadina trying hard not to cry. But what happened!?? "It''s all because of this idiot" Samrat shouted at uday pointing his finger while uday lowered his head. "What happened" I again questioned I''m feeling like seeing a movie in unknownnguage. "He sold our shares to our opponent Avira industries." Samrat said to me "What" it''s my time to get shocked "How can you!?" I shouted at uday They already bought 40 percent of shares from our shareholders, if they hold another 20 percent that''s it. KESAV PVT LTD will be under theirs. "I don''t know that I''m selling it to them" uday said trying to maintain his anger. "But we hold 58 percent ourselves right?!" I said to them As far as I know mom and dad together holds 20 percent. Samrat holds 10 percent but after marriage dad transferred them to uday along with his 10 percent and I have 10 percent, radhika vadina 8 percent. What''s the problem then!? "That''s what the problem, he sold his shares to them without thinking anything" samrat roared at him. "What''s the need annaya" I asked uday not believing actually he did it. "Sorry, but I''m so need of money to buy my new home" he said while ncing at radhika vadina. "New home!!" I mentallyughed at him. "So dad what to do" I asked him after a long discussion between us. "Nothing to do now, he cane up with a deal" he said keeping a straight face. "Dad, don''t bring up that useless deal" Samrat annaya said no no shouted on dad. Annaya shouting on dad... something is wrong. "There is nothing we can do except epting this deal. Otherwise we will be just shareholders for our ownpany" dad shouted at him. Samrat stopped talking and went out along with vadina. "You have to marry Mohan''s daughter Avira" he said making me shocked "What!?? Why" my eyes literally widened with shock "He said that he will transfer all his shares on your name after marriage" dad said. "It''s not aboutpany at all dad,it''s about me. I''m not going to marry tht Avira I love Aadhya and I will marry her at all cost" I said with determination "Is this your final decision" dad asked me for which I replied yes "Call samrat" hemanded uday Within minutes samrat came, this time without vadina.

"She is not our choice and we will never ept her as our daughter inw" for first time mom talked "It''s uday fault right, ask him to rectify it" I shouted pointing at uday "Why would I do anything, I just sold my shares that''s upto my wish to do or not" uday said shocking everyone "See, he isn''t ready to ept his fault and you''re ready to make us pay for that" I shouted at my dad "Yes and yes, how many times I have to tell you that either one of you have tk marry Avira and that''s final" mom said "I won''t ever and I will make sure the same with samrat annaya!!" CHAPTER:31 CHAPTER:31 shback continue: Vedanth pov: My dad voice kept ringing in my head... either you or samrat going to marry Avira. I don''t know when I fell asleep..but uday came and woke me up and said it''s breakfast time. "Why can''t you just listen to mom and dad" uday said "You will never know how painful it is to leave loved ones" said to him Izily stood up from the bed. "You know I too loved a girl before marriage, I insisted on marrying her but to my bad luck mom and dad denied." He took a deep breath and continued " I''m so ready to leave family for her.Not only that mom and dad threatened me if I married her they will make sure that she will think that death is better for her than living such a life." "Despite of their threatening I used to meet her but one night changed our lives forever. She was drugged and when she woke up she is in brothel house, and her videos of having" his voice croaked at end "It''s so hard for her to ept the fact that she is a prostitute and shemited suicide. That''s it after that I don''t want to take anyone life so, I simply started agreeing for whatever they said" with that he walked away. I don''t know any of these, my brother had gone so much but how can I or samrat missed seeing his misery state. Uday pov: "Uday, have you told him what we said" mom asked me I nodded. If you are thinking about story I told Ved, don''t cry over that or think over that. It''s all fake or my parents told me to say so I did "Good and send a person to watch her every move. Hire a PI to investigate that aadya information, start arrangements for Ved and Avira engagement" dad told and went away. With few calls and messages, Ipleted the work. VEDANTH POV: The only thing that running in my mind his uday and his past. How can I protect Aadhya! What if something happens because of me. Agh.....god help me please My stomach growled loudly indicating that I skipped breakfast. After having lunch, I decided to call Aadhya. Thinking about her smile automatically generated on my face. "Have you decided yet!" It''s mom "Told you already I''m not going to change my decision" with that I came back to my room After calming my self, I dailed her number. Within a minute after hearing her voice, I decided to see her. I made a video call. But my champ surprised me by giving a virtual hug. We didn''t even talked for a minute when she was N?velDrama.Org owns this text. about to say something, uday came and informed that dad wants me toe. I promised her that I will meet her in evening and went to my dad. There I saw Samrat, Satya vadina weeping. As usual uday standing beside dad and mom. "You called me" I said not so demanding tone "Your mom told me that you''re not changing your decision so, I asked Satya to divorce Samrat and she agreed. So I want do it in presence of family." With that he handed pen to Samrat,he took and signed right away. The couple I idolized are getting separated for me. I have to do something, I can''t let them do this. sh back ends. "Vadina, why are you doing this" I asked her "No other option left" with that she is about to sign I have to do something which has to be very quick. "Stop don''t sign, I will marry her" That evening passed by blur, in this situation I didn''t even remembered that I promised Aadhya to meet her. At night Mohan and his family came to meet us. They forced us to talk in private. I smiled sadly and asked her to follow me to ourwn. It has been ten minutes but I don''t initiate talks because I don''t want to "Hii" she said smiling widely "Hi" I responded "So..we are getting married, you excited" I nodded and debating myself whether to tell her and made her cancel this arrangement. But she kept on talking not giving me a chance to speak. Can''t she see I''m not at all interested in her talk "Come on, athaya is calling both of you" this time radhika vadina We both made went inside but to our suprise there is a priest. "See, ved your horoscopes matched perfectly." Mom said excitedly "ording to their stars, auspicious time for wedding is within 3 days or after 3 months" everyone gasped "No problem will go directly for wedding without engagement" uday said All agreed for him. My mind is searching for ns or something to escape from this wedding. After discussing how and where the wedding is going to be take ce. I feel.like an alien between them. So I excused myself and went away.. Aadhya, how will she react to this. When I decided to leave everything for her Uday words are stopping me from doing that. Her words are haunting me "Don''t make me regret of trusting you in short time" "don''t leave me" I''m drowning in her words and memories. "Told you to listen to them, see what happened now" uday shouted and throwed mobile at me Someone forcing Aadhya...my heart started beating fast rapidly "But I listened to them right!!" I cried loudly "Have you informed her that you''re going to get married" I nodded negatively "I will but tell them to stop doing such things" "The earlier the better" he said while going out. I decided to call her, but something inside me is stopping. What I have to do.. I dreamt of marrying Aadhya but now CAN I!?? "Sorry, Aadhya but for you I have to be" with that Inded in my dreand where I and Aadhya are only people. CHAPTER:32 CHAPTER:32 AARDHAYA POV: Ouch! My back is aching so much, I tried to turn to get afortable position but something is stopping me more like holding me. Adjusting my eyes to day light, I realised that it''s nikhil hand holding me to prevent from falling. He is sleeping next to me on bed with sleeping ansh on his shoulder. I dreamt of it many times(he is taking care of ansh to give me some rest) while I''m exhausted with baby ansh. But it happened now. "What''s happening here?!" It''s Advith voice. Shit...I mumbled, turning to him I signalled him to lower his voice. Nodding his head, he walked out by stomping his feet like a child. I followed him by closing door, he sat there on sofa looking at me angrily,without even blinking his eyelids. "Do you even realise what are you doing!?" "What if ved came insted of me" he shouted at me He is continuously shouting at me without even giving me a chance. "What can I do Advith" I shouted making him stop his talk. "I''m helpless...I''m scared to stay alone yesterday." With that I told him what happened. "I''m sorry aaru" he said and hugged me "Enough is enough, now you''reing and staying with us." I''m about to protest but he gave me "no more arguments" look which made me shut up "One more thing, I came here to remind you about Tara engagement is in 2 days." He said Once again reality hit me hard, how can I let him see my feelings and fears. After this he will definitely go to Yuktha and again I have to face war between my feelings for him and ved. No this can''t be happening....ved and me that''s it I chanted the same again and again before entering room. There they are ying with eachother, how I wish time to stop and let them enjoy blissful moments. You crazy girl, he has Yuktha again my inner self scolded me. "Nikhil" I called him and he turned to me "Aar....I mean Aardhaya. Good morning ?" he said smilingly I just nodded and extended my arms indicating him to give ansh. He hesitated for a moment but gave me. "Thanks for yesterday. You should go, they all will be waiting for you" I saw pain and guilty in his eyes, I thought he will say something but he didn''t just gone like that. I immediately started packing but there is only one thing in mind. Nikhil''s realisation and VED sudden "Aaru, I called packers and movers" and he is saying something but my nind wandered somewhere (you know where) "Aaru" he called me again "I''m going to see arrangements regarding of engagement" he said while looking at mobile "You take rest, I will do rest of things" he said while saying a bunch of safety measures. I smiled at his protectivness " I will carry a pepper spray and emergency number for an immediate cal to you, ok" he smiled and side hugged me Within hour, I''m in Advith house and ansh is busy ying with harsh, manvi. While I''m busy messaging to ved. Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org. Come and meet me at ***** Advith house. Have to tell you something important, pick up call or atleast message me when free. Not just two loads of messages...all are seen but not replied. May be he is busy says my feelings for him May be he isn''t so bored for a day now it''s my insecurities. My situation is so bad right now with unnecessary thoughts..... I don''t know what''s happening to me but something inside me is telling me that nothing is right!?? I have to divert my mind immediately or else these thoughts will kill me. When I''m about to go out of room, my mobile rang. My heart beat raised immediately but to my utter disappointment it''s Advith. "Hello" "Aaru..." His voice is so dull "What happened!!" "Our clients withdrew their projects from AA ORGANISERS" he said which made me numb. "What!! How !!" I asked him unable to understand anything "I don''t know but when I came here, there are already mails and messages to our office number" I can imagine his situation is worst that mine, may be he is sweating also.. "Advith listen, we have a marriage to do now... we can always find the reason behind it" I''m trying best to control my fear. "No...aaru we don''t have any project right now including tara marrige. They also" that''s it This time I felt betrayed...how can they do this... Kalyan uncle and Lokesh.. Immediately I called Kalyan uncle "Hello.." it''s Kalyan uncle "Why uncle" "Sorry ma but I don''t have a choice" "Choice..." I mumbled myself "Uncle do you remember who convinced me to ept this marriage event" I mocked him "Aaru.." I given him no choice to talk "Yea...the same aaru who believed you and made all payments for your son''s engagement & marriage" With that I cut the call... I made advance payments for their engagement, even if I cancel I have to pay for them. Without my knowledge, tears started pooling in my eyes.. without second thought I made payment through mobile with a message that event got cancelled. My mobile rang again...this time there is no excitement. "Hello" "Aardhaya" it''s Nikhil "Hmmm" "Are you okay" this is unexpected from him "Yeah..what will happen to me" I said trying hard to gulp down my miseries. "Don''t act, I know you''re not doing tara wedding" "Well...I do have many projects to do than marriage" "Ofcourse..you will have" I don''t know why but those words calmed me down. "Hmm" I replied "I will call youter, have a urgent work to do" lied to him . I just want to be alone for sometime... Can''t able to think properly I just hung up on him andid down on bed facing ceiling. Nikhil, marrige, hate, Love, divorce, ansh birth, Advith support,e back, ident, ved, his love, eptance, rape attempt, nikhil realisation, ved unanswered calls, projects cancelled... Everything came to my mind before I slept.......... CHAPTER:33 CHAPTER:33 VEDANTH POV: You know what I''m doing, sitting idle that too in between my soon to be wife and mom. If you are wondering what I''m doing in between them, we are all going for our wedding shopping. I agreed because it''s my only chance to meet Aadhya without them noticing me. When they are engrossed in shopping I can meet her it''s my n. Shhhh...don''t leak to anyone otherwise they will stop me. I hid my excitement inside and texted Aadhya toe meet me outside a cafe near the boutique we are about to go. She immediately replied back saying ok I felt like hugging her and tell her my situation. How helplessness I''m When we reached there, I acted like I''m not interested and exited quietly. But Samrat annaya saw me "Where are you going?" "Annaya, just help me to meet Aadhya. I have to" a p stopped me all of sudden "Annaya" I asked in surprise "Yes...tell me" he yelled Unable to talk anymore, I stood there dumb folded. He never raised his hand on me when I annoyed him to his peaks but why now. Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. "You knew I love her right?! Then what''s wrong in meeting her" "Do you want your vadina parents to die" he said showing me a video of them along with some goons. Now I understood why vadina agreed to sign. No wonder my parents did it! "What will they get by forcing this many members" "Annaya, I will be quick. She will be waiting for me, I promised her I won''t leave her" I said and went to cafe ignoring him Sorry annaya, but I have to meet her. My eyes are scanning for her in cafe, there she is sitting in a corner table thinking something. I felt calm inspite of pain I''m going through. "Aadhya" I called her She turned her head, I kneely observed her. Who knows what will happen, when I tell her my decision. I sat infront of her "how are you" I asked her the most stupid question. "Not good actually. I missed you so much. You know" she is about to say something but I told her "I''m getting married" if I listen to her, I may not tell truth afterwards. "What..stop joking" she saidughing "I know you said this to cheer me up" but please don''t say that" she said with little bid of warning tone. By observing my facial expressions,she again asked me "Are you getting married for real" I nodded confirming her in a yes. "Why it''s happening to me" she uttered slowly may be to herself but I heard that. "See Aadhya, Just wait for me a year and then I will divorce her for sure..can you wait for me?" She smiled loudly which is enough for whole cafe to look at us. I said sorry to all of them and sat back, she turned her head so that I can''t see her face. "Aadhya" I called her "PLEASE... Aadhya just a year" I pleaded her "Not just a year Ved" she whispered yelled Then I saw her eyes filled with tears.. "Not just a year, It''s another women life. In this so called just a year she expect love, time, support. She will build her future with you, she will dream for you only for you." "Aadhya, I don''t love her" I''m about to say something "You''re doing same mistake as nikhil, he left me for Yuktha and you are ready to leave that girl for me. Do you want to make her another Aardhaya." She asked me straight away "Aadhya, I know it''s wrong to leave a girl like that but I can''t loose you, I love you" Someone HELP ME to make her understand my situation... She smiled sadly and said "you will eventually learn to love her, trust me I telling this from my experience" "I''m so sorry ved but it''s going to be ourst meet" with that she stood up and ran out. I can''t believe this, I lost her forever.. I ced bill and went towards boutique. "There you''ree, I selected matching outfit design for us" Avira dragged me with her "Is it nice, do you like it" she asked me, I did nothing except nodding at her. "I''m feeling tired, I will go home" I said to Avira "Oh...don''t worry you can go I will select it for you" she said with smile When I''m about to leave my mom asked me to drop her. "But she said she will take time" I argued with mom "Avira,e here. Wedding is day after tomorrow you should take rest, I and your mom will do remaining shopping you go" She nodded and blushed at word marriage. I called driver and we hoped on backseat. It''s more than 20 minutes we both are sitting quietly not talking with eachother. But this silence is what I needed, I have already upied mind with Aadhya and her words. When I''m thinking about Aadhya,I felt weight on my shoulder. You can guess who is it sleeping peacefully yup it''s Avira. I gently kept her head on window of her side and simply I too dozed off After two days (day of wedding) I tied three knot of scared yellow threads (thali) around her neck. Now I''m married man, I looked at her again after settling down by her side. She is wiping her tears with her hand filled with Henna. We followed every ritual in wedding and it''s time for Appaginthalu(this js called with different names..it''s bride leaving for her inws home bidding byes to parents) She is crying hugging her father, mother. "Please don''t make her cry for what I did, she is more precious to me" her father said to me I nodded and guided her to sit inside the car. But who will take care of me, and my pain...what aadya said is right?? I''m doing same mistake as Nikhil What about aadhya, ansh and how can I leave without them?? I left all the unanswered questions to destiny to answer them without my involvement but itseems it''s doesn''t work out for me.. CHAPTER:34 CHAPTER:34 AUTHOR POV: Aaru and Advith are discussing about what''s happening around them. "This is not end of world, you guys could try again for projects" sushi said "It''s not about lost project''s sushi" aaru replied "Exactly, how can every client withdrew within a day without proper reason" Advith yelled frustratedly "Advith, don''t shout kids are sleeping" aaru reminded him once again. "But he has a point aaru" sushi said Aaru nodded positively, thinking about possibilities who can they be? AARADHYA POV: Girish and nikhil are only one''s that came to my mind after our conversations. I''m not at all feeling bad because that''s what the trust they earn after using me like a some tissue paper. I must confirm it with nikhil and my so called father. If they are reason, they are going to face worst because this time it''s not only me it''s my family I only have. "Then let''s see to what extent they will do" with that I went away to calm myself How can they do that to me!! I screamed once I''m alone How can you be so sure it''s them?! My inner self questioned me Then who...!! Who will enjoy my misery. Seeing me like this is their aim so that I will crawl to them. Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org. With same frustrated and messed up thinking I sent a message to nikhil. Need to talk, meet me at ****resturant And at same time my mobile vibrated with his reply Sure will meet you I felt so good seeing that reply because never in my life I imagined nikhil will give me reply that too within a minute. You girl... why are you thinking about Nikhil!! My brain reminded me Sorry I sheepishly said to my brain How crazy am I! Who does that....... saying sry to brain I smacked my forehead with right palm... I hurriedly freshen up and informed Advith, sushi to take care of ansh. Talking about ansh, he seems so dull and inactive. He always ask about Ved but what can I say, even I don''t know where he is!? So I convinced him that he went far away to bring giant gift for his birthday. Poor boy became excited,always talking about how ved will bring gifts with harsh and Manya. Unexpectedly a message from most important person turned my life upside down. Yup, it''s ved who messaged me to meet at a cafe. I''m became so excited and without waiting for anything, I booked a cab. I thanked God for more than 100 times in journey of 20 minutes after paying for driver, I went in and upied a corner table. How is he!? Is he fine!? Is everything ok at his home? Why don''t he message me for these 2 days!! So many questions ran in my mind.... Breaking all those ved came and sat infront of me. "Aadhya" he called me "how are you" he asked me "Not good actually. I missed you so much. You know" ansh is asking for you I thought to tell him but he said most unexpected thing. I thought he is joking just to lighten the mood. But he confirmed that he isn''t joking "Why it''s happening to me" I uttered slowly. But what sin I did to deserve such a situation again and again. "See Aadhya, Just wait for me a year and then I will divorce her for sure..can you wait for me?" I smiled loudly which is enough for whole cafe to look at us. But I don''t give any ounce of importance for that now. "PLEASE... Aadhya just a year" he pleaded me "Not just a year Ved" I whispered yelled. All incidents literally came infront of me again. Our marriage how I seeked for his love, his betrayal everything. "Not just a year, It''s another women life. In this so called just a year she expect love, time, support. She will build her future with you, she will dream for you only for you." "You''re doing same mistake as nikhil, he left me for Yuktha and you are ready to leave that girl for me. Do you want to make her another Aardhaya." I said straight away so that he will understand how I''m right now. I don''t want a life which are filled with another women tears and pain. I smiled sadly and said "you will eventually learn to love her, trust me I''m telling this from my experience" "I''m so sorry ved but it''s going to be ourst meet" with that I stood up and ran out. Right now the only question is how ansh going to react if he knew ved is never going toe back. Tears came out like they are assuring me, they are not gonna leave me like others. I know you don''t leave me...I thought and wiped them away. Ask me what''s my mistake to deserve such a ill fate. The answer is I don''t know? Everytime it''s me, now I know it''s my mistake because of my mistake ansh will suffer. I want to die, can''t able to bare the pain. Later I thought if there are hundred reasons to die there will be definitely one reason to live.. Now my only reason to live is ansh!? "Madam, we are here!?" Driver notified me that we reached restuarant. I nodded,paid him and went in to meet another nightmare of mine. He is already sitting there with menu in his right hand and left hand on his stubble. I asked one of the waiter way to washroom needed to wash my face so that he can''t see that I cried. Sshing water on my face seems so rxing right now... After settling down myself, I sat there on chair infront of him. "Heyy" he seemed so excited "Hey" I tried to be so normal "Everything ok" he enquired me "Yeah, you and Girish think that by bribing our clients you can hold me back" I yelled at him I didn''t nned to ask him in this way but with earlier incident and my messed up mind it cane out like I''m ready pick up fight. "What are you talking Aardhaya!?" He again started acting Like I believe him "Don''t try to act I know it''s you who did that" I yelled at him. "Aardhaya first of all tell me what happened" then I red at him. And atst I told him "Aardhaya neither I nor mamaya (FIL) did that, we both wanted you to be with us. So we nned, to make you agree as my first priority and then tell you truth of not choosing you over Yuktha but I backed offter. Trust me this isn''t out doing!" He is saying something but I''m not listening anything. If not both of them then who!? CHAPTER:35 CHAPTER:35 AARADHYA POV: "Aardhaya are you okay!" "You seem so pale and there is no glow on your face" he asked me Fate has such a bad timing, once I waited for him to ask me out which I can''t express, but this time at this point it triggered me. "How can I be so happy when my trusted persons betray me" I replied stressing each word. I don''t know why I said that words to him, it''s not my intention to hurt him but my inability to let them choose me over another yet again and again the same thing is happening, why is it my fault to trust wrong persons or is it my stars fault. "Why are you crying!! Tell me what happened" he again asked me. "Why are you doing this!! Why you''re behaving so sweet so that I will fall again" I shouted loudly I just don''t want to live this life but ansh is stopping me from taking my life , I became fool again by trusting someone blindly it pained alot because all hopes he gave crashed down by myself. All these things and his sweet talks are triggering me like oil in fire. I have to go back, there is no need to stay here after getting answers for my question. I stood up to go but within minute I fell down. I''m conscious but unable to say or move "aaru" he shouted and called someone to bring water before drinking water I lost my consciousness. Different world weed which consists of only darkness. No expectations, no betrayals no responsibilities, no fighting over feelings but it didn''tst longer. Like someone pushed me away from that world, I bounced back to reality. "She is awake" it''s Advith voice "Let me check her once then you can take her home" an unknown voice said may be to Advith. When I opened my eyes, I came to face a worried Nikhil and angry Advith. Nikhil came forward to help me sit but Advith pushed him aside. "Whatever you did is enough, now go." He shouted at him instead of going away he stood at corner by observing me and Advith. "What is this aaru, again you fainted due to blood pressure." Advith red at me "She is alright" doctor said to Advith and turned to me N?velDrama.Org is the owner. "you shouldn''t neglect your health miss" he smiled and went away Iughed at myself...this is my third time visiting hospital after nikhil sudden re entry in my life. "Come let''s go" it''s Advith and I followed him, although everything seems alright my sixth sense is saying something happened. "Advith" he turned to me "Not now" he just stated and started driving to home. I observed something in mirror, nikhil is following us in his car. I don''t know why I remembered that ACP in CID SERIAL dialogue kuch tho gad bad hai (something is fishy) why?? Did you guys sensed that too!?? When I''m trying to figure out what is that!? We already reached our home, I saw nikhil stopped car little far. I thought of asking Advith why he is following but stopped by recalling hospital scene. I directly went to my room only to find by baby sleeping peacefully sucking on his thumb. Smiling at his cute face, I sat beside him and kissed his forehead. Whatever tensions or headache it will be just gone when we spend time with babies, you know why! Because they are innocent souls I left him and started scrolling down just to see someedy videos but one notification changed my life. It''s Yuktha who tagged me in all social media ounts for a video. Scrunching my brows I yed that, nikhil carrying the unconscious me out of restuarant and second part it''s me and veding out of my house, helping me at hospital. At bottom she written b***h ying with two married man at same time. Andments are more worst to even see..am I alone again, that day she said I''m thief and everyone belived it. What if it repeats again this time it''s for society. Yuktha how dare you do this!?? With much anger inside me I went down,but Advith and Sushi voice stopped me "I don''t know ved is married plus how Yuktha knows that before us" sushi asked Advith "I don''t know, the only thing I knew is I have to be there for aaru. She faced alot" ved signed Tears pooled in my eyes, how can I think I''m alone when there are most precious people around me. Unknowingly sob escaped my mouth "Aaru what happened!" Both of them asked at sametime Still they are trying to keep it from me.. "How long can you keep it as hidden, I too have a mobile" I said while wiping my tears "Aaru, I contacted awyer to file a case" I cut him off "They will hire the best what can we do then" he remain silent I decided what to do and how to y dirty if she decides to y dirty. I smriked remembering my n. My mobile rang and it''s Rehanth (aaru Brother inw). "Hello" I answered it "Bhabhi work is done" he said I thanked him and I started executing my n yuktha pray to god that this time I don''t win because if I win this I will repay you with interest. "Advith, I want you to gather information about Yuktha when she is in abroad with all proofs" He nodded "aaru, what are you going to do!" "You will see soon" with that I stood up and went away to y with my ansh. There is limit for every thing and now yuktha reached all those limits Now she have to face the worst or bitchy side of me.. CHAPTER:36 CHAPTER:36 AARDHAYA POV: As nned Ipleted my step one and driving to start second step. If you''re wondering what is First step let me tell you filing case against Yuktha but it''s not me it''s ved who filed it. Yeah, I asked him to file a case but then I came to knew that he is not what he had shown me. shback: After a little conversation with Advith, I went to backyard to think how and when can I start my n to destruct them inch by inch. Then I sorted out persons who can help me and persons who will try to stop me. Without wasting a second I sent a message to ved. Needed a small help. That''s it he called me immediately thinking that may be I changed my decision but no I''m clear about my decision. "Ok, tell me what can I do" he asked me "I think you saw that video which is going viral without knowing truth" I said in a go "Yeah, but trust me I''m not involved" he defended him "I know who did it, I just want you to file a case against Yuktha for invasion of privacy" I said and unsure about what he will say, it''s been a minute but he isn''t replying. "Don''t worry about expenses, I will take care" I said thinking may be he is stepping back cause of expenses "It''s not about expenses, I have contact my legal head and my PR team has to answer the mess created through video" What!!legal head and PR team What the heck he is talking about!!! N?velDrama.Org owns this text. "Ved, what are you talking!" I yelled at him now I''m so sure because not everyone has a separate PR team. "I''m sorry that I hid it from you,I''m CMO of KESAV PVT LTD andst son of Kesav udhanth" he said which made me fool again. Iughed at myself "so,you''re saying that you can''t do anything" i started ying pitty card now. I know that it''s going to work for sure If you''re thinking that I''m evil to use him then go a head I don''t care, because I''m called as many names including evil,home wrecker, b**ch,etc.. How can anyonement without knowingpleted truth, so I decided to y all those characters and show them what will happen if I''m those. "Its not that, understand my situation too. I can''t go ahead and send myself statement that too it needed my brother approval" Wow, he isn''t what I saw. "What''s the use of living when you can''t even stand for your trusted one''s ved" I said in most naive tone so that he will agree for sure. "Aadhya, listen" when I understood he won''t do, I hung up immediately. I have to think alternative, think aaru think....think slow and act fast I kept on whispering think slow and act fast. Then came my little savoir "Ma..." He ran to me and hugged me by neck. It clicked me right away "sorry ansh for using you but trust ma,it''s for your good." I said to him and picked him. Ved, you will do it for sure now. Author POV: "Advith call ved from my mobile tell him that ansh got beaten and verbal abuse by some unknown persons when you guys went to park" she said a d went away without giving Advith chance to speak A broken heart is more dangerous than evil one is what Advith thought by seeing aaru and her ideas. He did as aaru told him and within seconds samrat and his wife came to aaru thinking that it happened for real. Other side aaru did makeup for ansh got ready to do a show infront of ved but instead an unknown man in his early thirties came with a women by his side. "Aardhaya" satya(samrat wife in case if you forget) called her "Samrat take baby with you" Satya said to him but aaru is ahead of them picked him denied to give him Samrat understood her situation and went away to talk with Advith. Aardhaya pov: "Samrat take baby with you" thatdy said to him immediately fear engulfed me, what if he does something for ansh. I took him immediately to me,he nodded going out leaving her with me. "I''m Satya, tht guy went out he is my husband Samrat. Ved elder brother" when she said she is rted to ved, I became alert. "Ved told me what happened, I''m so sorry. I''m also responsible for your separation, but I''m not here to support ved." As those words left her mouth I felt a sisterly love in her voice My eyes filled with tears and mind with thoughts. Whether to trust her or not that''s my situation now but as soon as she said ved name ansh beamed at her and started bbering in his baby voice. What''s happening to my baby, how can I handle him now?? "Aaru you''re so lucky that you missed the chance to see hell because it is house full" she said but I didn''t get her a bit do you guys get her!! She took a deep breath and said "even if you get a chance to visit that hell please reject it for your and this baby sake" she said while stroking his cheek with her palm. "Sorry, but I didn''t understand anything" Indirectly I asked her to borate what she said She smiled sadly and nodded "we married against their parents and that''s enough for them to treat us unfairly" She said what she had gone through and I can''t stop crying the whole time even now she is ming herself foring into his life unnecessarily. "How could you tolerate such behaviour towards you akka(sis)" I asked her "He sacrificed his family for me and I did for his peacefulness" she said sighing Such a witchy parents, casting wrong spell on their children. But they have to understand that nothing is important than children''s happiness. "Sorry, I came for you and " she trailed off She wiped her tears, i saw the old ne in her the only difference is she has samrat and I had no one "Actually ved sent me to talk to you" as soon as she said that my eyes turned out red due to anger. "So, he sent you to say that he can''t do anything" I mocked him "No.. listen he decided to give an statement infront of press that he and you are only friends. And he is going to charge against Yuktha under invasion of privacy" when she stopped I sensed some sort of but Am I correct!? Or not I don''t know "But" I told you na, I''m sensing it "He needed your support that is not revealing your rtion to anyone" that''s it I lost my coolness Ignoring child in myp, I shouted at her "me.. it''s not me who said that I''m his fiancee,moreover I didn''t ask him toe and raise already dead feelings" at end I cried again... This time ansh crawled down from myp and went out.. "Aaradhya, see I didn''t mean that way. I know he is wrong giving false hopes but he needs to ept his new rtion which mean you have to" I continued her words "I have to act like we''re friends" it is not easy but I will try just to end what I started. shback ends That evening as said ved attended a press meet clearing air regarding our photos and stated that he filed a case against Yuktha to my surprise he also revealed that she(Yuktha) is his wife who married other man without divorcing him. "I will also proceed legally regarding this issue" it''s his words. To say I''m happy is an understatement, take that Yuktha but it''s not end it''s just a start. With that I started driving towards my so called dad''s house to give most awaited shock of decade...... Never start when you can''t finish, start what you want to finish but finish when you started... -author CHAPTER 37 CHAPTER 37 AARDHAYA POV: They love to y with Lives right! Why can''t they taste their own medicine then I thought again about n just to make sure I''m not going to step back no matter what!! I parked the car infront of their so called house and called Rehanth (aaru brother inw) "I''m infront of house, start the act" I said and hung up. I waited patiently for few minutes before hearing themotion inside, which is directed by me. Patting myself, I started walking inside house and sat on the couch without giving a nce to them. Rehanth who is standing beside nikhil nodded at me and I texted ved to give his heroic entry,here All of them are staring at me like I''m an giant that came to Lilliput ind ? it''s do funny watching them. "What are you doing here!?" It''s Sowmya Girish wife yelled at me. Ouch, it hurts me...wrong question my dear step mom "Answer the question nanna" I replied and sat backfortably Girish is dumbstruck watching me here and unable to answer his wife at same time.. "Isn''t what you wanted to live with you guys, now I came." I answered their unspoken question with a lie "Who asked you toe" it''s Yuktha Wow girl you have nerve to talk after what you did for me, nikhil and ved. I will show you how to behave when you did something wrong!! "Who are you to talk!??" I replied her and at same time smriking at her She doesn''t even know that I''m here with a n, so I can y with her a little "I''m his wife" she said pointing to nikhil for which I raised my eyebrow Wow, new thing she said to me "Then who am I?" Here came my another betrayer now frenimy. You guessed it right!? It''s ved opps sorry VEDANTH kesav. I carefully observed Yuktha, her facial expression fell by seeing vedanth here. I think she didn''t expect him here after the heated discussion with Nikhil. Now I will enjoy my show and you are free to watch ?. It''s directed by Aardhaya and show begins now raise the curtain my dear brother inw, I winked at Rehanth indicating him to start "Who knows who are you, Yuktha is my dear Vadina" he said through gritted teeth. Well done my maridi(brother inw) nice acting level''s, Iughed at her situation she became bone between two dogs but difference is that she is selfish to y with us. "I don''t know" she replied to ved, seeing everyone except ved you can''t escape now my dear sister. He came here to do or die "Then what about this marriage certificate and photos" he gently ced all those infront of her. Cat caught tongue haha...it''s very funny to watch her now. She is sweating clearly, it''s time for pay back my sweet sister. "Yuktha, arrest warrant has been issued on you" this time it''s police not me I''m innocent (you know what I mean) What a perfect timing, I should pamper me for nning everything perfect. "This time no one can save you not even your evil father like when he saved you in abroad" ved yelled at her which caused her to flinch N?velDrama.Org is the owner. This is what I nned to send her behind bars and I should be here not like a loveable daughter or wife but to make them repay. I will make them pay even ved too. No one can escape this time, once I finish my work with ved then it''s his turn to pay for what he did to ansh. Police arrested Yuktha and when they are about take her, Girish voice stopped them "Be strong dear, I will bail you out" with that he send her out. How can he stoop low!! Is he even a human "On what basis you will bail her Mr.Girish" Ved questioned him making his eyes turned red due to anger. I agree dad''s will make feel daughter as princess but nor when she ruined lives too even I''m his daughter but I never get pampered by him even after he knew the truth. How discriminated he is!? Isn''t he!? Or am I over thinking it!? "She is pregnant and she is not fit to be in that bars" Girish said making meugh "My dear nanna, she didn''t tell you" I againughed at him between my talks "Omg, I''m gonna die for this joke" I clutched my stomach and sat down in couch Now may be some hearts gonna break with this bitter truth but I have to tell them otherwise they will keep their hopes high. "She is not pregnant at all, she lied to everyone because she came to knew that I had ansh with nikhil and she thought nikhil wille back for me. She kept on denying his wish of starting a family, she kept on using contraceptive behind his back" I announced cing all her health condition issues before them which I gained byst week before nning everything. Tight p sound echoed in room, guess who pped, yes, it''s Girish. He just signalled police to take her away and went inside without ncing at her back. I nced at nikhil for first time after I came, I know it will be very devastating for him rather than hearing that she is maniptor. I saw him wiping his tears and stood there watching her leaving with police after seeing his expression rather than feeling better I feel weight in my heart. Why!?? Why!?? CHAPTER 38 CHAPTER 38 VED POV: (after wedding day) I''m married this sounds like unfamiliarily familiar, because I''m already married once not even my brother''s knew this!! How ironic right? I thought she was the one and she asked formitment without any dy I agreed to marry her but Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. in the end it''s all me only me. She showed me the reality behind her face... shback: Finally I''m going to London to get my master''s, I''m always dreamt of leading my life away from my parents not because they are strict but just I want to be alone and make my own money, spend them save them. It''s a chance for me to do something on my own, after master''s dad will force me to join hispany. It''s so sad right! But I don''t have an option other than that. With so many dreams and ns, I entered the apartment which my dad bought for me. Soon I settled down with neighborhood and weather, started searching for part-time job and I got one as cashier at **** cafe. It''s enough for me to earn something for myself and I lead my life like that for an year, going to college, doing job and saving money for my start up and earned good enough by investing saved amount. Then came Yuktha as our junior, she started showing interest in me. At first I neglected it but when I saw her following me everywhere I liked her. Unlike other girls, she proposed me that too... to marry her!! I was so shocked but the way she talked and the way she behaved left me speechless. She is so good with her words, literally she will kill or make everything with her words. After 3 months of our journey we married, then we are so happy and my dream of starting something is far ever gone. She is my world but one day my dad call made me realise how b***ch she is. If you are wondering what my dad said that day, he informed me that Samrat was not bing CEO but uday was. Frist I was not happy but both are my brother''s so I shared it with her. "What....then what about you!" She shouted at me. "What about me, I will be working as employee but in a level higher" I answered casually that time I didn''t knew why she created a scence for that issue. Later she fought daily with me for unnecessary issues and finally after 7 months of our marriage she signed divorce papers saying she don''t want to live in a life where there is no peace. I don''t understand what peace means...what it means!? Leaving someone without any reason.... Even after my studies I didn''te back saying reason that I need time here, but real reason is may be she wille for me but no. After so many months of waiting I gave up and went back India with divorce papers she signed those papers are handy now. The reason I said that Yuktha is my wife not to hurt Avira but to help Adhya, it''s least I could do for her after failing to fulfill my promise for her. Just because of me she is suffering, but what I did is to save her. If I failed a minute to protect her my dad will take Advantage of that minute particrly. So I left her for good, but what made me confused is Aadhya behaviour after that video incident. How can a person be indifferent within hours!! Oh forget to mention that mine and Avira marriage isn''t registered yet...yes you listen it correct not because I have wrong intentions but I first want to file divorce with Yuktha them I will get registered is what I thought. But God has another n written for me as usual so he made me say so that she can''t cheat another person and destroy another women life. Avira family is so pissed with me after knowing that I''m already married but Avira some how convinced them that''s it not my fault to get manipted and no need to say about my dad and mom they''re like mad bulls ready to fight anytime. I can''t believe that my one day old wife supported me without knowing anything about me. Like how can she trust me!! Whatever right now, I applied divorce in London, so it will take months minimum after that I will register this marriage (Avira and mine)... But in all theseplications I forgot about ansh,my little champ.. So I called Advith,I knew Aadhya will not like me contacting ansh but I miss him what can I do! "Hello" he picked my call "Hello, Advith" I answered nervously, I don''t know how will.react at me. "Oh... vedanth sir, how are you" sarcasm is clearly evident in his voice "Advith, I''m sorry about what happened but I''m left with no option" he yelled through mobile "Because of you ansh is unwell, because of you we are all lying to this innocent baby about you and because of you we are leaving this country for good...good bye don''t evere near ansh" with that he hung up and switched off mobile.. They are leaving country but why!??? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A/N SORRY GUYS FOR LATE UPDATE BUT IN ALL MY HECTIC SCHEDULE I TRIED TO UPDATE BY READING ALL YOUR ''S.......THANK YOU FOR SHOWERING SO MUCH LOVE ? CHAPTER 39 CHAPTER 39 AARDHAYA POV: Seeing him sad broke me again but this time I have to give him what he deserves, you all thought that I will forgive him and we will start our happily ever after, then you''re wrong I smiled wickedly myself remembering how I think to punish him...but it will wait, I have to make a call. I dialed Advith number "hello" he answered "All ready to leave" I asked him "Yes, but aaru think once is it necessary for us to leave country" he argued again on the same topic which I decided for their best. Once I ran from situation I''m facing now no way I''m turning my back to these fellows who made me joke, but my only concern is ansh, Advith and family. If they eyed my business then why can''t they use them aganist me. I don''t want to take a chance so I told them to move with Sushi family who lives in abroad. It''s so hard to stay away from only family,but some people whose only work is to insult others don''t leave them especially ansh, he is too small to face these situations. He needs to grow up in a peaceful environment unlike here. "Advith, we already decided what to do and why" I answered him for n th time "Fine but we will be back once it is all settled here" he almost said that like a statement Iughed and said yes while nodding my head like he really will see me nodding.. "Well, have safe journey and one more thing don''t let ansh know any of these even in future" I said controlling my tears "In future...what do you mean, if you think you can act stupid them FORGET about that Aardhaya" with that he cut the call Nobody knew what''s there for tommorow but definitely I have to n it good for ansh. Even if it is with me or without me, if it is at cost of some lives. I wiped my tears and turned to go insid my so called paternal home for next few weeks but Nikhil is there standing fuming at me. "Why!" Is only word he said, I think he listened to my conversation with Advith. "Why what!?" I questioned back like I know nothing He gritted his teeth and grabbed my arm, his tight hold is making me more angrier than I''m. "You know what I''m asking! Why do you send him away!?" He yelled at me. Me... seriously out of all the people he yelled at me I pushed his hand which is holding me and pped him hard gaining all strength. "You are asking me why!?" I red at him "See, I don''t owe you anything and he is my son I can send him anywhere I want especially away from persons like you" with that I pointed at him and walked away leaving him there. NIKHIL''S POV: I don''t know but how can Yuktha do something like that! She just posted a video of aaru, me and ved along with a tag b**ch, right now we were arguing about that! If she isn''t pregnant I would have pped her so that she can get some senses into her brain. "Why did you do that! She already suffered so much because of us" I yelled at her for the first time in our rtionship. "This is why! You''re always take her side and I feel insecure" she again started ying innocent possessive wife but not this time, I''m not leaving her at all. I need answers for everything she had done "Stop it...don''t try to act, and what are you saying I always took her side" Iughed dryly She is staring at me kneely like need to know what''s in my mind. Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org. How could I not know her other side all these years and after knowing too I stood by her side right!? "Whom did I choose when you came back in my life! I left her believing you were correct but s you manipted me and made me leave and I was a fool to do so. And even when she asked me to choose between you two,I choose YOU" I shouted at her stressingst word. With that I left from there finding peace, it''s almost half an hour I''m walking distance but I can''t find peace, then I remembered the day I knew that treatment costs alot, how sheforted me those dys how her smile makes me calm, how my day begins with her and ends with her... I myself destroyed peaceful life, choosing this life. I have to bare now, no choice but this time Yuktha needs to reprimand on what to do. On the day of ved press meet: Yuktha tried to exin more like made an excuse for her mistake but her mistake is not forgivable. Heart break---- I knew now how it feels when I saw the press meet. I know that Yuktha was married but she said she was divorcee. I believed and choose lie over and over again. Silently I went to my room...all the day I sat there not knowing how to react! But why she choose me over him. I''m nothing whenpared to him right!? These question are haunting me!!! With same questions running around my mind I dozed off away from this lies... CHAPTER 40 CHAPTER 40 NIKHIL''S POV: Betrayal and unanswered questions made my sleep long gone...for the first time in my life of 29 years I witnessed both sunrise and sunset. My anxiety to know answers made me restless and sleepless, with the same speed to know I went to freshen up. After some time, here I''m sitting and waiting for my soon to be ex-wife.... "Here, you have only 20 minutes." Lady constable left her with me. "Tq so much, I didn''t expect anyone toe even after what I did!?" She said while crying for about a second my heart melted seeing her tears but held myself fromforting her. "Why!?" I asked her in desparate tone. "Huh" she stared at me confusingly like she doesn''t know anything what an act.. "Why did you came back to me and destroyed my blossoming marriage!? Why did you lied to me!? You made me fool by saying that I''m patient and make up everything..." I yelled at her forgetting it is a police station. I don''t care whether they think that I''m a mad man, I just needed answers.. She lowered her head without talking anything.. "For God sake talk..." I shouted at her...she flinched at my tone and raised her head. "Somebody ckmailed me" she said, Iughed out loud, guarding police saw me like I a cave man "You''reing up with new story....e on you think I''m a fool, tell me the truth" she think by cooking another story she can get me back or she can prove she is innocent then it''s a big no. "Why do you think I did it, ved is a step ahead than you in every aspect but why did I choose you" she started showing her true nature now.. "That''s what I don''t know!" I said through gritted teeth "I left ved because his dad knew about our marriage when he visited us. But when he offered me shares or ved and obviously I choose shares. That ceo or other thing is just an excuse. But that old fellow tricked me and transferred shares to my name under a condition that only if I married I will get right on shares" What she just married me for those shares!!! But why!? "But why!? Your dad should have married you to another rich person right!? Why the hell my life!" I shouted at her She just smriked at me and said "because you''re naive, I didn''t have a n at first to marry you but when I saw you at dad''s office, I saw the same expression in your eyes when we are in love...that''s it I decided to use that and get married but to my bad luck my step sister already got married to you" she said out frustratedly "My dad gave his share of 30 percent to her, every year he used to search for her mother but my mom some how deviated him then I ckmailed him emotionally to get married to you" she smiled evilly and bent front a little and whispered "to make her life hell, I used her and sent her out of your life." Sheughed a little and about to say something butdy constable came and dragged her saying out of time. But I observed her lips moving something like keep an eye on her...
