Hi everyone...
Nothing much to say toh back to story...

Flashback continues..

-----------------------------------------------------------

Addyshna's side:

Before Aashna could say anything someone punched Addy. Aashna shockingly look at the person...

Aashna: OMG.. Addy are you ohkay? (angrily) what is wrong with you Sanku??

Sanket: (angrily) Are you seriously asking me this? You should be the one saying this to him.. How dare he asks you out? (to Addy) How could you do this Addy?

Addy: That should be none of your concern Sanku. She is my friend as well. Agar usse bura lagta toh wo mujhe bol deti. We don't need a mediator...

Sanket: (angrily) Addy jaban sambhal kr baat kr.. Dost hai iska matlab ye nahi ki kuch bhi bol dega..

Addy: Dosti kehne ki nahi hoti manne ki hoti hai.. I don't think tune kabhi dost mana tha mujhe. Mana hota toh ye sab nahi krta.. And moreover we were JUST TALKING. Agar wo mujhe mana bhi kr deti toh I was okay with that.. I am not toxic like you..

And that was it for sanket. In no time both the boys get into a fight. Arsh and Rishu comes their and pulls them apart.

Rishabh: (holding Addy) What is wrong with you both? Are you guys pagal?

Just then Arsh gets a call..

Arsh: Aashna handle them. I need to go. Rishu just go in living area. (glaring Sanket) Just make sure ki koi aur ladna na shuru kr de...

Rishu and Arsh leaves from their..

Sanket: (angrily) What is wrong with you honey? Why are you taking his side?

Aashna: Firstly Sanket he is OUR friend. Secondly you are noone to jump into my conversation. I can deal it myself.

Sanket: I could see how well you were dealing with it..

Aashna: (angrily) Stop it Sanket!! We aren't dating. You are noone to say me all this. Stop trying to control everything.

Sanket: (angrily) Ohh so this is the excuse for you to let him ask you out. Are we really not dating??

Aashna: (angrily in tears) No!! And thankfully we aren't. I can't spend my life with such a person who is so insecure...

Addy: I am sorry honey.. I really had no intention to hurt you..

Aashna: I know Addy. I am sorry from his side cuz he toh will never appologize.. (angrily) He and his fucking ego..

Sanket: (with rage) Sorry my foot.. Meri koi galti nahi hai...

Aashna: This is your problem. Tum aapni ego ke aage sahi aur galat bhi nahi dekhte... You know what you don't deserve anyone other than you ego...

Sanket: (angrily) Haa toh kiska wait kr rahi ho... Leave na...

Aashna angrily stomps off from their. Addy also leaves from their glaring Sanket.

Flashback ends

Aashna: He has changed a lot.. Changed for good. But sometimes he just starts behaving wierd. (she recalls how he started sweating seeing blood and then police) Ugh... Don't over think Aashna. I'll ask him tomorrow. Finally sab sahi ho raha hai...

Aashna smilingly dozes off to sleep...

Aktk's side:

Ashi reaches at backside of their villa. She sees TK seating on a broken tree trunk facing sea. He didn't sees her as he was back facing her. She slowly walks towards him and taps his shoulder..

Tanzeel: Are tu itne jaldi aa gayi..

Ashi: (sits besides him) Kyu nahi aa sakti.. Iss jagah or tera nam likha hai..

Tanzeel: Haa... (Ashi looks on at him narrowing her eyes while he points her to look at sand. He had written TK on the sand. Ashi giggled seeing it)

Ashi: Toh fir chal mai bhi apna nam likh deti hu. Ye jagah tere aakele ki thodi hai..

She writes AK besides his name. Both lightly smile seeing their names together...

Ashi: Toh aab bata. Kyu bulaya tune mujhe...

Tanzeel: Miss short term memory loss.. Humne dopahar ko baat ki thi na. I didn't want to delay it. Mai aaj hi tujhe sab batana chahta hu...

Ashi: Toh kiska wait kr rahe ho... Batao..

Tanzeel: Actually jab hum lonavala pohche the....

Flashback:

At evening everyone gets busy in the party. Their other friends also join them.Tanzeel and Unnati seemed a lot off and away from party but noone noticed it much. On the other hand Ashi had planned to propose Tanzeel on terace. She says about this to Manav, Arsh,Addy and Aashna. They help her make a cute setup on terace. Everyone was busy in helping Ashi with her stuff that they don't realize that Tanzeel, Unnati and Sanket had disappeared from the party..

After a while Tanzeel reaches their. He wasn't in the best state. He was looking for someone just then Ashi pulled him on teracce..

Ashi: (puts her hand around his shoulder) Kya baat hai.. Aaj toh tu Mr. India ban chuka hai. Achanak gayab ho jata hai..

Tanzeel: (removes her hand) Ashi.. Listen na.. I need to go somewhere.. Its important..

Ashi was a bit hurt. Tanzeel never fails to compliment her but today he was in some hurry. He didn't even have a look at her.. She still composed herself and decided to not spoil the mood.

Ashi: Ji nahi. Tu mere saath chal raha hai.. No bahanas...

Ashi pulled his hands and takes him on the Terace... Tanzeel was taken aback seeing the decorations...

Tanzeel: (nervously) Ashima.. Ye sab... Mujhe samajh nahi aa raha

Ashi: (happily) sab samjh jayega.. (she bends on her knees) So Mr. Tanzeel khan. I don't know where to start from. You filled my life with nkthing but happiness. From taking care of my every mood swing to being their during my worst breakdown you have always been their. I don't know ye kaise hua pr I fell for for bestfriend. I know its wierd that mai kisiko propose kr rahi hu (she chuckles) pr can't help. You made me fall for you. And I don't regret that. So my Tandheel... I love you... I love you with all my heart... Do you love me??

Tanzeel: (tensedly) Ashima... Mai... Wooo... I just... (He sees from terrace that someone was entering the Villa from window. He recognizes the person) Shit no... Sorry I need to go...

Tanzeel just rushes off from their leaving Ashi their.

Flashback ends...

Tanzeel: Tab kuch bohot jaruri kam tha isliye bina bataye chala gaya.. (she looks at him) Dekh aab wo mat puch ki kya tha. Mere jane ke bad kya hua mujhe wo janna hai..

Ashi: Jab tu chala gaya tab...

Flashback begins

Ashi was taken aback after what he said.. She was trying to process everything. She was broken. She was sitting numb. Tears made down her eyes... Manav reaches their and sees Ashi. In no time he rushes to her and he hugs her.

Manav: Ashi.. Kya hua.. Roo kyu rahi hai.. Tanzeel kaha hai..

Ashi: (crying) Wo chala gaya Manav. I shouldn't have proposed him. Its all my fault.. (sobbing) He... He does.. Doesn't love me.. Wo aaisehi... Aasehi chodkr chala...Chala gaya. (she starts breathing heavily) I lost him Manav.

Manav: (hugs her even more tightly) Ashi... Calm down.. Kuch nahi hua.. We all know he loves you. Kuch hua hoga.. Mai usse baat krta hu.. Sab thik hoga.. Tu rona band kr...

Ashi was continuously crying. Manav tries calling Unnati but she wasn't picking up his calls. He gives up and calls Arsh. As soon as Arsh reaches their he asks him to take Ashi to the room and be with her. He goes looking for Tanzeel. He looks for them in their rooms but he couldn't find them.. He decides to towards the spare room...
Manav reaches outside a room where he spots Unnati and Tanzeel comming out of a room... Tanzeel came out of room buttoning up his shirt while closing the door and Unnati was wearing Tanzeel's shirt..

Unnati: Hume jakr sab bata dena chahiye manav ko... Usse humare bare sab pata hona chahiye... Mai usse jhoot nahi bol sakti. Ye usse dhokha dena hoga...

Tanzeel: Tu pagal ho gayi hai kya.. Hum nahi bata sakte usse... Aaj raat jo bhi hua wo sirf hum dono ke beech rahega.

Unnati: (worried) Hum sahi kr rahe hai na Tanzu??

Tanzeel: Don't worry Unnsu. Sab thik hoga. And I am always there with u even if noone's there besides u. I'll trust you no matter what.. (kisses on her forehead)

Unnati: Love you Tanzu.. (hugs him)

Tanzeel: Love you too Unnsu... (hugs her back)

Tanzeel and Unnati leaves from their.

Manav's pov:
Wait!! Tanzeel and Unnati!? I just can't believe what I saw. My best friend and the love of my life!!!!
I can't believe Tanzeel did this to me. He knew how much I loved Unnati. How could he do this to me.. Tears started flowing from my eyes.I stood their numbly not knowing what to do. The only thing that I could think was go and confront them.

He was about to go behind them when Arsh called him.

Arsh: (in call) Manav Ashi bohot jyada ro rahi hai.. Jaldi se yaha aa jaa. Ye mujhse shant nahi ho paa rahi hai.

Manav cuts the call and quickly leaves from their...

Manav rushes to Ashi's room and huhs her..

Manav: Ashi please rona band kr.

Ashi: (sobbing) Manav mujhe ek baar Tanzeel se baat krni hai. Its ohk if he wants his time.. But I can't lose him Manav. I need him in my life...

Manav: (angrily) Can you just stop thinking about him. Aapni halat dekh. Usske liye roo rahi hai jise iss baat se bhi fark nahi padta ki tu thik hai ya nahi. Tujhe ek baar bhi check krne aya wo. Nahi na!? He is busy enjoying himself...

Arsh: Manav tu kaisi bate kr raha hai. Wo already roo rahi hai and tu ye sab bol raha hai..

Manav: (angrily shouts) Ha toh kya galat bol diya maine..

Arsh: You both are not in your sense. Ruk mai Unnati ko bula kr lata hu. Wahi tumhe samjhayegi..

Manav: (angrily) Koi jarurat nahi hai usse bulane ki.. She is also like the other girls...

Arsh: Kya ho gaya hai tujhe deenu. Kuch bhi bakwas kr raha hai..

Manav: Sahi keh raha hu. Usse sirf logon ke dilon ke saath khelna ata hai. And she is the one who is busy with Tanzeel in one of the rooms having their PRIVATE TIME. (Ashi was shocked hearing that) Kuch jyada hi private.. You know what she is also a bi...

Before he could say anything he felt a burning sensation on his checks. He shockingly looks at the person. It was Aashna...

Aashna: (angrily) I can never even think that you'll say such things for Unnati and TK. And I can't belive ki Arsh aur Ashi tujhe rokne ki koshish bhi nhi kr rahe.. I can't believe you guys are my friends. Ek baar jakr usse hi puch lete.

Manav: Tune wo sab nahi dekha jo maine dekha... (He angrily tells them everything he saw)

Aashna: I trust both of them and I know ki aaisa kuch nahi hua hoga.. Anyways I am done with you guys.. I am leaving from here... (sarcastically)And happy new year!! (she angrily shuts the door)

Aashna stomped off from the room.  They see Rishabh standing outside the door hearing everything. Manav angrily leaves the room. Rishabh comes in the room and signs Arsh to go behind Manav. Arsh leaves the room. Rishabh goes towards Ashi and hugs her.. She starts crying uncontrollably seeing Rishabh. His eyes also gets teary seeing her cry but he composes himself.. He somehow makes her have food and makes her sleep on his lap.. His eyes also get teary hearing her sobs. He carenesses her hairs till she falls asleep.

In Manarsh's room:

Manav was angrily packing his stuff.

Arsh: Tu kya kar raha hai Deenu?? Aur ye kya bol raha tha tu Ashi ke samne?

Manav: (angrily) Kyuki wahi saach hai..

Arsh: Tu ek baar jakr Unnati aur Tanzeel se baat kr. I am sure koi confusion hui hai

Manav: (sternly) I don't want to talk about this.. I am leaving...

Arsh: Tu mujhe chod kr jaa rha hai?

Manav: Arsh not this time.. I am leaving. I can't stay here...

Arsh was trying to stop him but he angrily packs his bag and leaves from their...

Flashback ends

Ashi: Tanzeel ek baat puchu??

Tanzeel: Haa...

Ashi: (not making a eye contact) Wo jo images college ke first day pr unn bandon ne bataya tha wo sab kya tha?? Jo manav ne muje kaha wo saach tha?

-----------------------------------------------------------

It is really very very bada chapter but mai flashback khatam krna chahti thi isliye jyada bada ho gaya. I didn't want to drag it to next chapter.

Also next 2 chapters are the ones which I wanted to write since a long time. It is someone's pov jo abhi tak nahi aya hai. Guess who??

Question of the day:
If someday your mom comes and says to you ki aaj tu jo bolegi wo sab mai manugi toh aap kya karoge?? And what will you demnd??

What do think about those images? (TU's close images) What do you think will be TK's response?

Also what do you about Ashi favouring TK more than Rishu?? And where does Rishu stand in all this??

Do vote and comment. Appreciation and criticism both are welcomed. Feel free to dm me your feedbacks.

Thank you
