Vihaan POV :

I would have never left Shikha and come for this damn seminar but considering my business I have to attend it. "Where were you till now?" Raunak asked me running towards the hall. I explained him what all I saw today morning to which he got surprised.

"I did not expect such a big hall and its packed too" I said out of shock on reaching he venue to which Raunak smirked. Yes! He already informed the importance of this but when did I listen to anyone. I smiled stupidly thinking about my thoughts and got seated on chars with our names.

After discussion of purpose of seminar an audio-visual started playing on the big screen about the great companies which are originated from this place. If its some other day I would love to know about other companies but today I am in hurry to go and thought of leaving. "You cannot leave like this, Just few more minutes" Raunak stopped me with his words.

I lazily sat and watched the AV which is being played, Suddenly I saw a guy who seemed so similar but I slipped into sleep and then dreams. The only person whom I see when I closed my eyes is Shikha, her beautiful smiles is printed in my heart .

 I never saw her this much happy before as today, she seemed like a completely different person whom I do not even know.I opened my eyes cursing when Raunak nudged me, he pointed towards the big screen. 

AV Playing . . 

The Rajvansh group - the one of its kind, making this place proud to have the founders from here. It carries a legacy of  nearly five generations working hard to build this group. Started as a small company to provide employment to few people in this place, now it provides employment to more than a million people around the globe. 

When few years ago Mr. Kuldeep Rajvansh, his wife and friends were dead in accident it felt like the end of this mighty company. Mr. Kuldeep has been the master in driving this company to great heights by spreading its branches and venturing into new projects. His sudden demise has started affecting the stakeholders, then other members of group made it survive.

This group has been stagnant till its true heir took the charge, Mr. Arjun Rajvansh made this company run again in previous glory with help of other board members. He proved his  capabilities by running this company along with other start up company of his deceased father.

"Arjun?" I said and Raunak repeated in disbelief, we would he never believed but there was his picture on the screen forcing us to accept the truth. "You played with this guy too" Raunak said in haste. "Oh stop it now" I said and we continued watching AV.

There is one more person behind success of Mr. Arjun, if he is the face then she is the soul of the company. Here we present Ms. Deepshikha Rajvansh, the other head of this company, known for her witty decisions and strategic decisions. 

These two royal siblings taking the company charge completely made the people of this place and their father proud for sure.

Lets put our hands together for these two young guns, the pride of Rajvansh group. 

. . 

With that AV ended on pics of both Arjun and Deepshikha, and the hall erupted in claps for them. I stood there shocked with all the new facts. We hurriedly came out and reached our car, "Shikha is the Deepshikha Rajvansh" Raunak stated in disbelief.

"Arjun and Shikha are really siblings?" I said in low tone processing all my thoughts. Its hard to digest few things at once and this is too much for me. "Let us go to temple, I think we will get her there" I instructed driver regarding same.

"Vihaan! So this is the truth she hid from you. As she said it would have never affected your relation" Raunak commented shaking his head. Even I am thinking the same, She asked me to trust her but I did not. I did a very big mistake which I cannot correct now, the only thing I can do is say sorry and express my love.

. . 

I ran to the place where Preeti-Neeti were there and saw Shikha from distance who is distributing food to few people. "We offered our prayers, can we leave?" Preeti asked making me glare at her but received equal reaction from her. 

When I saw Shikha finished her work and relaxing, I went near her and she stood still in her place in shock. 

Deepshikha POV :

As directed by Uttara we reached temple and performed puja, I came to know only destined couples would be able to this puja and not everyone will get this chance. This made me super happy as I am doing it with MY Dhruv.

All we three couples completed it successfully, Uttara and Jai uncle took Sushanth and Atisha to perform some other rituals at home. Souravi being a doctor had to go to hospital as there are few cases she should attend. Arjun and Dhruv were too busy to miss office for one more hour too.

So here I am left alone to cook prasad (sacrament) and distribute it. I called Chitra to know if she could help me but she was in some seminar representing our companies. Its not easy to cook for hundreds of people alone, I did it after lot of effort and distributed it.

I started walking around admiring nature and my thoughts were drifted to Dhruv. His care and love made me love my life, I thank my parents daily for choosing him for me. I wonder what good did I do to get him and consider myself lucky.

I turned around and saw someone coming near to me, I stood still seeing him before me. I know that I should face him soon but did not expect it today in this way and that too alone!!

Narrator's POV :

"Finally" Vihaan said with a huge smile which made her sad. "I am really sorry" he said kneeling down before her making her take a step back. 

"I should have trusted you but I did not, I humiliated you and your parents.I realised my mistake and started searching for you but you are in hide out. Please forgive me" he continued saying but Deepshikha did not react.

"You could have explained me Shikha, if you kick me hard and say all of this I would have understood" Vihaan said with a small smile. 

"I did not hide because of you, I have my own personal reasons" Shikha said glaring at him.

"I love you" he said in pleading tone.

"Oh I should believe that! Anyway I am engaged" she said carelessly.

"I know you still love me" he said with a smirk.

"In your dreams, why will I love someone like you? In your words I cannot pollute my family blood" she said.

"I know about your family now but I loved you before knowing the truth. Its so stupid of me to say all that to you" he tried explaining her. 

"Mr. Rajneesh! I am fiancee of someone else and you do not dare to talk to me" she warned him.

"I know you love me and I will never stop loving you" he said stubbornly making her leave in disgust. 

"Hey Preeti! How are you? Congrats my would be sister in-law" Deepshikha wished on seeing her to which Preeti hugged her. 

"I did not know you are here otherwise I would have never let him meet you" Preeti said in pleading tone eyeing Vihaan. 

"I know it" Deepshikha said lost in her thoughts. "Congrats Shikha for your engagement" Neeti and Raunak wished her making Vihaan more angry. 

"You people believe she got engaged!" he asked in surprise. "She never lies" Raunak commented making Deepu proud of her friend. "You know me too much" she teased Raunak pulling nose.

"Deeps" they heard a shout and Chitra came running towards her. She got stuck between two people suddenly and found herself getting pulled by Chitra and Abhay simultaneously. 

"I found her first" Chitra shouted, "No I found her" Abhay said pulling her hand. "Stop it guys, We are in temple. Why do you fight this much?" Deepshikha said pulling her hands from their hold.

"D! She fought with me when we went to offer prayers too" Abhay said to irritate Chitra. "Its all because of him" Chitra said like a small kid.  "You people did not leave god too!" she commented. 

"Do we know all these people?" Chitra asked pointing others. "She is Preeti, Adi's Fiancee. They are Raunak and Neeti, Varma uncle's son and daughter in-law" she introduced them leaving Vihaan. 

"I am Chitra and who is he?" she introduced herself and asked about Vihaan much to the disgust of Abhay. "Chitra! Let us leave god in peace. Deeps I will drop you" Abhay took both of them with him. 

Chitra understood that there is something wrong and did not pester Abhay. Seeing her Deeps and Abhay dull she too stayed silent till they reached home. "Abhay called you Deeps instead of D" Chitra commented when they sat in hall. 

Deepshikha understood the situation and planned to cheer up Abhay, "It seems Abhay is getting effected by you Chitra" she commented. "Even I too think the same, how can he not follow my footsteps. He too knows I am a gem" Chitra said playfully.

"Gem!! Then you would not boast yourself" he taunted her. "Wow! My Tommy is back" Chitra said clapping. "Tommy?" Abhay and Deepshikha said at once.

"You are Tommy and I am Jerry, Deeps always says we are Tom and Jerry na" Chitra explained making them chuckle. Chitra felt happy to see both of them smiling again and making them forget whatever happened.

. . 

"We should stop Vihaan bhai, he can to do anything" Neeti said pacing in her room. "Who are you? Are you really my Neeti?" Raunak asked rubbing his eyes in disbelief. "Now you will know" saying it Neeti started hitting him with pillow. 

"My feisty girl friend is back" Raunak pulled her into his hug, "I do not want anymore problems in Shikha's life because of Vihaan" she said sadly.

"Good to know you worry about her" Preeti who entered the room just then making Neeti wriggle out from Raunak. "Her brother and fiance are there to protect her. So do not worry" Preeti said ruffling Neeti's hair. 

"You are finally talking to me" Neeti said with happy tears and hugged her twin. "I cannot stay angry on you, now you are not supporting Vihaan bhai blindly. That is enough for me" Preeti said and left the room. 

"I will close the door and hand do not disturb board" she teased them and went away. Raunak is happy that Neeti changed for good and felt bad for Vihaan.

. . 

"What? Why did you not inform us before?" Sushanth screamed knowing about Vihaan. "We will not leave her alone from now" Abhay declared and everyone accepted.

"He is acting knowing the truth, he can never love anyone" Atisha said in rage, "Calm down guys! Atisha we cannot comment about someone like that" Deepshikha tried convincing them.

"We saw what he did to you and we know how much Abhay suffered" Arjun said killing Vihaan in his mind for his deeds. 

"I know he is selfish but he loves his mother, business and his family pride is everything to him" Deepshikha said not liking words of hate from her loved ones. 

"Why are you defending him Deepu? Seems like you are still into him. Have shame to say things like that before Dhruv" Souravi said making everyone shocked. Dhruv went near his angel whose face is now pale without any emotion.

"Dhruv! I did not want to defend him, I wanted to stop you all from hating" Deepshikha said with tears flowing like a flood from her eyes. "Sssh! I know" Dhruv wiped her tears and took her  inside.

Deepshikha cried after many days because of Vihaan, this made Abhay burn in anger. He left the palace planning to kill his brother for coming back in their life but Chitra stopped him explaining not to spoil things in hurry.

Arjun started ignoring Souravi for her comment and she regretted for her words. Sushanth and Atisha, being the persons with hot blood started planning against Vihaan. 

Dhruv and Deepshikha remained in each others embrace thinking about how everything started changing because of one person. "I want your support till this wedding ends" Deepu asked her Dhruv, "Aditya is like my brother too, so we will bear this together for him" Dhruv assured his angel.
