Chap-10 The War Within

*Annika*
She just ran and sat in the car. She drove like a maniac as if she wanted to go as far as she could, to a place where no one could see her, to a place where she can hide her self and cry her heart out. She was already going through a tough phase in her life and now this man! What was he doing to her? Why did she allowed him to touch her like that? Why didnt it felt wierd when he touched her? She was fighting a war within. Aman was completely vanished from her mind and all she was thinking about was her dance with Shivay.

*Shivay*
He knew that his prey was falling in his trap. He knew his first step was a success. Thats what he wanted to do. To come near her, to get close to her not physically but emotionally and then break her like a glass breaks, in millions of pieces.

Everyone in the hall was quite, the way Annika ran off scared Gauri and Bhavya. Shivay and Gauri followed Annika whilst Bhavya made sure that she somehow gets in contact with Annika by calling her constantly. But she didnt picked up. As Shivay and Gauri reached the garden , all they saw was Annika driving the car and fading away. They rushed to another car and followed Annika.

Gauri : plz drive faster Shivay...
Shivay : Dont worry, we will catch her.
Shivay drove like a freaking racer, and suddenly brought his car in front of Annika's car... she suddenly applied breaks. Thankfully the car stopped and Shivay and Gauri went towards her.

*Shivay*
What is God dam wrong with you Annika? Are you crazy ?? You could have got hurt, Yelled Shivay clutching Annika's arms tightly.
Annika was just struggling between his arms, leave me Mr oberio, you are no one to ask me or tell me what to do. Just fucking leave me... she winced with pain.
Shivay realized his hold on her and left her. He didnt knew why he behaved like that. On one hand ,he wanted to give her pain and on the other hand the mere thought of she getting hurt made him mad.

*Annika*
Already her life was flooded with pain. And these new happenings were hurting her more. She saw Gauri and just hugged her tightly.
I want to go home Gauri... plz just lets go from here. I want to go home. Annika cried bitterly.
Annika saw Om'a shadow in Gauri, she gave him the same strength and positivity as Om did.

*Gauri*
Gauri knew that Something is not right. But for the time being, she wanted to make sure that Annika gets some peace of mind.
Fine Anni, stop crying. We are going home okay. Relax she said wiping her tears away.

*Shivay*
Shivay insisted them to let him drop them to home. He wanted to make sure that they reach safely.
Although he was driving but his eyes were constantly checking out Annika from the mirror. She was sitting on the back seat with Gauri. Her eyes swelled by thorough crying and they were closed. Shivay knew there is so much more into that heart. And he felt a desire to explore her heart. While Annika felt the weight of his gaze on her. She just didnt had the strength. She avoided any kind of eye contact with him.

Finally they reached Bhavya's house. Gauri informed Bhavya about Annika and they said that they would be reaching home. Gauri insisted Shivay to come inside.
After leaving Annika to her room and making sure that she slept, Gauri came out of the room.

*Shivay*
Shivay was sitting in the living area. He felt like going back but his steps resisted, his heart wanted to know how was she? Why was there so much pain in her eyes. He saw gauri coming towards him.
Is she better now? He asked curiously.
Gauri nodded and said,I gave her the pills , she has slept. Thanku so much Shivay for helping us. We troubled you a lot. I m sorry for that.
Not at all Gauri, thats my pleasure. But If you dont mind me asking, what is the problem? He asked.
I dont know what's wrong with her. She is not looking fine since last 2 days. It was all good when we came India, said Gauri.
I think my dance made her upset said he said coldly.
No that cant be the reason, I think there is something wrong with Aman and her. She is not telling me but I can feel the coldness between them.. Gauri said
Whats between Aman and her, asked Shivay in a confused tone.
Actually, they are dating, infact from last 2.5 years. But I dont know what happened here.. she was so happy when she came here but now all this is giving me some negative vibes. Om is gonna kill me if something happens to her. I have to talk to her in the morning.

*Shivay*
When he got to know that Annika and Aman are dating, something ached inside his heart.
She belonging to someone else was kind of hurting, he didn't knew in what sense or why but it was.
He faded away those thoughts from his mind and concentrated on the new name Om.. now who is Om? He asked Gauri.
Gauri told him about Om being the only brother of Annika. She told him how Om cant stand a single tear in his sister's eye. How she was his only weakness. How he sent her to India on Gauri's responsibility.
Shivay got another court in his ball. Om is Annika's family and he can now make sure that this family breaks. Because thats how his pain will get submerged.
Don't worry Gauri, She will be fine. We are here with her. I think I should make a move now, it's already late.
Gauri greeted him good night warmly and he moved out.

As Shivay reached home Rudy and Rajesh were waiting for him. They asked him about Annika and he said that she was fine. After sometime Rajesh came to his room and asked him about when to plan the press conference for the business announcement of Shivay taking the position of the CEO in the Oberoi empire to which Shivay said that he certainly want to concentrate on his revenge rather than entring the business right now. He said that till the time he is busy in that, he want Rakesh to look after the business. Rakesh's  heart jumped with joy. Shivay was moving according to his plan.

*Shivay*
Shivay was never a sadist. He was the one who knew the importance of family. He never hurted anyone. He never betrayed anyone. Infact he was known to be like his father. Same generosity, same humbleness, same ground to earth nature but the only bitterness he always stored in his heart was for the murderers of his parents. His heart still aches when he thinks about Annika. He feels a sudden desire where he wants to think that she is not the daughter of his enemy. He wants to thinks that Annika had nothing to do with his black past but he cant. Because the man who told him this is the man he worships. He is going through a war within, a war wherein at one place his hearts want to know Annika, her pain, her life, he wants to wipe away those tears, he wants to protect her but on the other hand, he himself wants to break her apart. More over how much ever he feel weak or attracted towards her, he wants to give that man the pain of taking away his family. And he can only do it by giving pain to his daughter. He stared towards the sky as if asking permission from his parents, although somewhere he knew that his parents must not be happy with him for what he is going to do but he will have to.

*Morning*
Annika felt her head spinning and her eyes felt the weight of a hundred mountains on them. She was feeling very weak. Having not been eaten from last two days, she was unable to sit straight on her bed.
Suddenly she saw Gauri coming in her room with a tray in her hand. 
Good morning baby, come on now get up. Have some breakfast and then we will go shopping okay? Gauri said trying to avoid her gaze.
Annika sensed Gauri's swollen eyes. She have cried.. but why?
Gauri...whats is wrong! Did you cried! asked Annika worrying.
No baby, why would I cry. She said giving her a warm smile.
Annika knew she was lying. But as soon as she went to her, Gauri got a call and went out.

*Annika*
Annika decided to take a bath and after that she moved towards the living room to look out for Gauri.
As soon as she reached the living room, she saw that same figure approaching towards her, her heart felt heavy again. Yes it was Shivay.
Good morning Miss Annika. How are you feeling now? Shivay asked with that care in his voice.
Annika was shocked to see him, she didnt knew why but she wanted to stay away from him.
I..I m fine Mr Oberoi, but how are you here in the morning? She asked with lot of efforts avoiding her eyes from those chocolaty brown orbs which were too deep to be ignored.
Just came here to see how are you doing, any ways now that you are okay, would you like to go on a coffee with me? He asked sweetly.

*Shivay*
He wanted to make sure that he gets to take this opportunity of the rift between Annika and Aman in his court and thus he made sure that he reaches to see Annika in the morning. Also, somewhere he was worried,he was not able to sleep in the night thinking about her, he wanted to know how was she. But being SSO, he didnt accepted that to be the reason for him to be here.
As he saw her it felt like a beautiful doll is coming from heavven. So pretty, so naive and so fragile. One thing was sure she was beautiful, gorgeously beautiful and this was becoming one reason for Shivay to lose his concentration from his revenge plan. He hated to admire her but his eyes didnt.
Just after a formal exchange of words, when he asked her out for coffee.. he heard her yelling at him on the top of her voice.
"Who do you think you are Mr Oberoi? How dare you ask me out for coffee? What do you think I am? Just because I danced with you doesnt mean that I m your toy and I will do what all you ask me to! Just stay away from me... you heard that? STAY AWAY!!!

Precap : I m sorry...Shivay.
