The Morning was very happy as the whole family i.e. the Sehgal kids sat on the dinning table waiting for Anish who has been cooking their breakfast....The Sehgal siblings smiled seeing him happily come out of the kitchen carrying their hot breakfast

"Chalo chalo! Garma Garam Aloo Paratha!!" Anish announced childishly and began serving parathas to each of his children as they happily dug in but Aditya sat there still looking at his plate of food with tears brimming his eyes

"Adi Beta...Paratha ko haath bhi nahi lagaya tu ne!! Kya hua beta kyu yeh aansu!?" Anish asked in concern keeping a hand on his shoulder....As Aditya smiled with teary eyes

"Reminds me of good old times chachu!...jab aap, hum sab k liye breakfast banaya karte theyy! Aap , mei, Mom, dad, Ritu ma..., Ranvi , Angad aur Shona...sab milke issi table par khaana khaate theyy Khushi Khushi!" He reminsced chuckling as the memories flashed right before his eyes

"Sach kahu toh uss time ki khushi Hume kabhi waapis nahi mil sakti...lekin aaj jo kuch hai....Usse toh mei kahi zyaadha khush hoon! Adi Beta khaalo! Khaana thanda ho jaayega!" Anish said wiping Aditya's tears as They enjoyed their morning breakfast...Then proceeded to go to their respective offices leaving only Ishani,Anish and Ishani's personal bodyguard and other guards at the mansion

Riddhima was on her way to her office when her phone rang... casually attending the call

"Hello Wealthy Heir! How's you doing with all the wealth and power of your dad!?" A robotic voice greeted her which weirded her out to no extents

"Listen if it's a stupid prank and I'm not in a mood to entertain this early in the morning!" Riddhima rebuked

"Calm down Little Sehgal! Why are you being so upset early in the morning?..I haven't even done anything to you.... yet!" The robotic voice proceeded to laugh

"I've had enough of your baseless nonsense...and stop wasting my time!" Riddhima gritted out hanging up the call but to her annoyance the call came again

"What now!?" Riddhima snapped

"Well maybe you are in a mood to talk back to me  and Disrespect me so much Little Miss Riddhima...So Now you will face the consequences...well Not exactly you but you dear darling boyfriend will face the consequences of your actions!" The robotic voice menaced but Riddhima remained unfazed

"Huh?! You think I believe you one bit...Naah! Just hang up idiot!" Riddhima yelled

"Before that you might want to check your boyfriend's food! I had poisoned it...What if he's dying now?!" The voice slyly said cutting the call making Riddhima slightly alarmed even at the mention of poison...So she just called vansh just to reassure her paranoid self but he didn't answer any of her calls... making her panick...so she told her driver to hurry up and reach VR Mansion

Reaching the Majestic VR mansion, she swiftly ran inside without any possible delay...Once inside she was met with complete silence... the one which she dreaded at this moment

"VANSH...? VANSH?? SIYAAA!! ARYAAN! KOI HAI???"She loudly yelled but got no response from anyone....One of the servant told about Vansh being in his room....so she went up the stairs to Vansh's room...and heard sounds...she quickly opened the door and saw him leaned down against the Bathroom door....his tired face lit up seeing her but instantly He felt like puking as he quickly got up to puke it all out and Riddhima rushed over to him , gently patting his back...Finally feeling relief ... Riddhima helped him in washing his mouth and then his clothes... she gently led him back to bed and told him to lay down as she went out to call the doctor but she got a message from  the same number

The message read:
"Hello AGAIN RID.DHI.MA! How's your boyfriend now? Well I know must be laying on his bed after a long puking session huh! Anyways..you saw the trailer but if you try to seek police help, or tried to tell anyone about this...Remember that your boyfriend will suffer  the consequences of your actions!"

The messages sent chills down her spine as to how accurately the person talked about the whole situation, So after calling the doctor, she came And sat down near vansh patting and gently massaging his hairs still thinking about the threatening call and the message...Vansh who had just opened his eyes looked at her still lost in her thoughts...

"Riddhima...kya hua? Kya soch rahi ho!?" He asked frowning as she snapped out of her thoughts

"Kuch nahi vansh...Bass mei yeh soch rahi thi ki tum aise time pe akele kyu ho? Siya aur Aryan kaha hai?"  She asked

"Oh! Siya subah hi apne doston k saath France gayi hai ek fashion week k silsile mei....aur Aryan kisi shoot k chakkar mei Hyderabad Gaya hai!toh mei akela hi thaa Ghar par" Vansh said his voice still showing tiredness and exhaustion... The doctor then came with the saline drips and other medications for vansh as Riddhima had already explained all the problems to the doctor....

"He is alright now! It's just minor food poisoning....He must only intake light foods for this week! And take medications regularly along with complete rest.. he will be fine soon!" The doctor said and walked out of there as Riddhima also began to walk off but vansh held her hand

"Please stay...!" He gave her his best puppy eyes as she sat by his side holding his hands as the hours went by in utter silence but loud reassurance of infinite support and togetherness...His heart was filled with happiness and love seeing her being there for him at such a vulnerable moment

"I'm here Adonis...I'll be always here for you !" She declared with so much love for him...that he immediately relaxed hearing her words and soon drifted to a deep slumber due to medicine's effects

1:30PM:

"Vansh! Uto please...tumhe kuch khaana chahiye!" Riddhima lovingly woke him up and helped him sit back on bed leaning against the headboard with a pillow to give proper support to his back....As Vansh still kept admiring her ever so lovingly...still thanking and wishing that all his dreams comes true sooner... his dreams of waking up with her and having his whole morning routine with her should come true....and for that he needs to get married...their relationship has been so smooth so loving...Three whole months of pure bliss is all he had to say about this relationship

"SWEETHEART!" He lovingly addressed her

"Bolo Adonis....kya hua??" She asked in concern

"Don't worry..I'm okay now! I just wanted to talk about something!" He said seriously as she fed him the first bite of the oat meal she made for him

" Sweetheart Keep this aside for a minute please..it's important!" He  implored

"Okay okay! You're scaring me now! Hmm tell me! What's bothering you??" Riddhima asked

"Okay I'll come straight to the topic! What do you think about Marriage!?" Vansh asked seriously while on the other hand Riddhima was taken aback by his question

"Yo-you...want us to get married?" Riddhima stuttered slightly...not understanding how out of context this question was...here he was weak from all the puking and medicines and Asking weird questions...but alas she put that blame on the effect of medications and didn't take him seriously

"Obviously Vansh we would get married at some point in our lives!" Riddhima said smiling as she tried giving him another morsel of food but he rejected it again taking the bowl from her hands and kept it on the other side

"Why can't that point in our lives be in this year...like in a month or two Sweetheart!?" He asked with so much eagerness and hope in his eyes still holding both of her hands in his....his beautiful eyes and the intensity of his words nearly made her speechless

"I know this seems too soon...But I realise you are the one for me...And for me that's enough reassurance that you are my One true love...And who wouldn't wanna marry the love of their life as soon as possible? Huh? Sweetheart I love you so much and I want us to take a step forward in this relationship!" He clearly stated his thoughts

However Marriage isn't something she had thought about until now...But all she wants to do is live in present and get to know him better and improve and build their relationship ever so strongly....No matter how much ever fairytale like their love story is..there are some loose ends...They need more time with eachother and need to build more trust Towards eachother to even think about take such serious step like marriage...It's not as if She isn't serious about vansh but She definitely didn't think this was their moment to get married....But conveying this to vansh now can lead to him taking her perspective and views in a wrong way...so she wanted to deny him politely

"Vansh....It needs to wait a little more... because as you know my brother's getting married in a month...and-"

"It's even fantabulous sweetheart we could have a twin wedding with your brother too...hai na?!" Vansh excitedly said as the smile vanished from her face.... making him realise

"You don't wanna get married to me, do you?" He skeptically said...his hold on her hands loosening as he looked at her shocked and hurt knowing she doesn't reciprocate his feelings

"Vansh Aisa nahi hai tu-"

"Tell me yes or no! You wanna get married to me or not!?" Vansh asked

"I-"

"I need a yes or no!"

"Vansh...I would wanna get married to you someday but that's not now! Please try to-"

"Leave!"

"Huh?"

"Riddhima please go!"

"Vansh...you have not ate anything!" She asked

"I can very well take care of myself...you should go back to your office now!" Vansh monotonously said feeling extremely hurt for some reason... knowing his sweetheart isn't as eager to get married to him as he is....It's true their relationship has been beautiful for these three months but the fact that she has not ever tried to tell anything about him to anyone of her siblings...he knows for a fact she's very close to her brothers and even Aliya...but not one of them knows about this relationship...Why? He tried initiating this topic to address the problem for so many days but she always brushed it off and distracted with romance and flirting...And now this reaction to marriage...the unnecessary excuses...Not like he didn't realise she's just making up excuses but the fact that she made up such excuses to avoid this topic is hurting him and somewhere making him second guess everything that has been going on between them for 3 months....is everything real or fake? And now that he is stuck in such series of questions..he got a taste of his own medicine and reminded of the times he thought about playing with Riddhima's feelings.... Keeping all that aside.... his mind  stuck on one question

IS EVERYTHING BETWEEN THEM REAL❓❓❓
