Vineet was in his mother's room, trying to have a conversation with her. But the lady refuses to even look at him. Why would she? Didn't she give him enough time already? But the guy chooses his business over family, it's his mistake and he has to fix it.

Vineet was sitting on his knees before his mother, apologizing for his mistake.

''Maa, I'm sorry!! I know meri wajah se bahut dukh hua aapko, main manta hoon apni galti. Par uss waqt main jis daur se guzaar raha tha jahan mujhe kuch samajh nahi aa raha tha. Hamara business doobne ko tha, sab dav pe laga tha aur main kuch kar na paa raha tha aise mei Kaise main kahin aur concentrate karta. I know aap upset ho par I promise main aage se aapko shikayat ka mauka nahi dunga.'' Vineet expresses, his mother's sadness and silent mode disturbs him. He can't see her sad and unhappy also She's not talking to him.

''Rehne de, tu waise bhi apni baat pe nahi tikta hai. Jab mann hota hai khush rehta hai mann hota hai gussa ho jata hai. Meine tujh se umeed lagana bhi chod diya hai. Infact, tum dono se hi!! Tumhe bas apni mann ki hi karni hoti hai meri toh sunte nahi bas kabhi laga toh aa jaate ho sorry ka board leke. Listen Vineet, I know you least care ghar mei kya hota hai kya nahi toh better leave me alone because i don't want to talk with you at the moment.'' Savita verbalizes her point.

Vineet holds her hand, his mother is really very angry. She doesn't even want to talk to him, he needs to fix it.

''Maa!! Aisa maat kaho, you mean a lot to me aur ye tum janti ho. Tumhare bina main kuch bhi nahi hoon Maa, please gussa chodo!! Main wada karta hoon aage se kabhi aisa nahi hoga, chahe mujhe kitna bhi kaam ho, kitni bhi problem ho main tumhe nirash nahi karunga Maa, please aakhri baar maaf kar doh mujhe!" Vineet pleaded, he looks guilty of his act.

Savita let out a deep sigh. She isn't satisfied with his words but she also can't see him sad after all she loves him and a mother can't be angry for a long time.

She gazes a him,''maaf karungi par ek shart hai meri, agar tu wo manta hai toh hi main teri baat manungi.'' She pointed out.

Vineet readily agrees,''tum bas hukum karo maa, main tumhare liye kuch bhi mar sakta hoon!" He exclaims.

Savita strokes his hand,''dekh, itna waqt ho chala hai, das saal beet gaye tum dono ki shadi ko. Aab mujhe kissi chij ki kami nahi, bas ek wahi hai jo mujhe chahiye aur wo sirf tum dono hi de sakte ho mujhe aur Koi nahi de sakta." Savita states with hope in her eyes.

Vineet was smart enough to catch the words of his mother but he pretends to be unknown.

''Maa!!!" He let out a sigh.

''Dekh, main janti hoon Anamika ye nahi chahti par kab tak? Iss saal you'll be 38, Anamika bhi 36 ki ho jaayegi, aur kitna intezaar karna hai tum dono ko? Aab aisa bhi nahi hai ki tum dono ke relation mei koi problem hai ya wo conceive nahi kar sakti, par tum dono ki iss harkat se puri society mei ye baat chal rahi hai. Sabko lagta hai tum dono mei hi koi kami hai issiliye tumhe bacha nahi ho raha. Dekh, main aur bardasth nahi kar sakti. Tum dono ke kehne pe meine 10 saal intezaar kiya aab aur nahi, agar tujhe meri maafi chahiye toh meri baat maan le nahi toh bhool ja mujhe!" Savita declares and turns away.

Vineet was spellbound. He can't promise his mother what she asks for without his wife's consent as she will be the one bearing the child, her consent is most important.

''Main baat karunga uss se! Main wada nahi kar sakta Maa kyunki sirf mere chahne se toh kuch nahi hoga na, uski bhi manjuri honi chahiye!!" Vineet reasoned.

''I hope iss baar tu mujhe nirash nahi karega!!" Savita says with some hope, Vineet shook his head.

Savita caressed his head,''Vineet, it's the right time ki aab tum dono apne future ka socho!" She says meaningfully and pecks his head, Vineet gives a light smile and takes his leave.

He doesn't know how to converse with Anamika. A few hours ago she had straightly denied the same and his mother demanded the same. It will be really hard for him to talk with Anamika but he has to do it, he too wants the same. He wants a child in his life, with whom he can play, forgetting all his worries. Whenever his age mate talks about their kids he turns a silent listener, his mood saddens but Anamika's refusal stops him. How can he force her for something she doesn't want? He can't, he won't!

Maybe he should convince her now as he mother said after a few years it will be hard for them to conceive because of the age barrier.

He takes a deep sigh standing at the door of his room and enters. Anamika was nowhere to be seen but her voice could be heard from the balcony. He followed the voice only to find her talking over the phone, she was still in his shirt. It seems the call disturbs her sleep as when he left the room she was fast asleep.

Feeling his presence she looks at him and smiles lightly while he takes his seat on the recliner.

''Make the arrangement, I want everything at the time. Iss baar kuch gadbad nahi honi chahiye, samjhe!!" She instructed the other person on call.

''Bakwas kam karo aur kaam jyada. Tum logon ki wajah se ye case itna atak gaya hai samjhe. Pura department sota rehta hai tumhara, ek aadmi toh pakda jada nahi tum logon se aur badi badi baatein karte ho.'' She shouted.

''Oh shut up! Don't teach me law!! Kaam karo kaam samjhe!! I'll book the tickets aur tum apna kaam karo!" She told them and cut the call.

Vineet was staring at her all the time. When she turned to him he forwarded his hand, she held it and sat on his lap.

She cups his face with her one hand, finding him lost in thoughts.

''Kya hua? Mumma se baat hui? Wo maani?" She questions to which he let out a deep sigh gazing at her.

''Wo bahut naraaz hai mujh se, dekhna tak nahi chahiye rahi meri taraf. Meine bahut koshish ki par wo nahi maani meri baat, pata nahi kya karu. Mujhe toh samajh nahi aata meri galti kya hai? Kabse bol raha hoon main stressed tha, itna bada loss main nahi seh paya, mujhe kuch samajh nahi aa raha tha tab. Uss waqt jaisa thik laga kiya, badi muskil se sab set kar raha hoon toh maa aise behave kar rahi hai, wo meri baat samajhne ko ready hi nahi hai. Aab tum toh samajh gayi, aisa toh na tha ki sirf maa se cut off ho reh raha tha main. Dono taraf same situation thi na par tum samajh gayi aur maa nahi, pata nahi kyun. Aisa lagta hai wo samajhna hi nahi chah rahi, betuki baatein kar rahi hai bas!" Vineet states a little disappointed at the fact that his mother is not ready to understand his point of view or his situation.

Anamika let out a deep breath looking at him.

''Galti bhi toh tumhari hi hai na jaan!! Business mei loss aur profit hote rehte hai, aise family se cut off ho jana solution toh nahi hai na. Mumma toh fir bhi apni naraazgi jata rahi hai, main wo bhi na kar pai. Aab aisa toh hai nahi ki mujhe koi dukh na hua tumhare bartav se par already itna kuch ho chuka ki main aur iss chij ko khichna nahi chahti thi issliye tumhari khushi mei shamil ho gayi par uss baat ka dukh mujhe bhi hai. Itne mauke aaye jab mujhe tumhari jarurat thi, kuch chij thi jo main sirf tum se share kar sakti thi par tum the hi nahi.

See, jab hum kissi se shadi karte hai specially when it's love marriage. Humari expectations bahut high hoti hai apne partner se, kahin na kahin hum ye sochte hai ki wo humei samjhe, hamari baat sune, hum apni chijein share kare aur hum unse hi kar paate hai kyunki kuch chijein sabko nahi batai jaa sakti aur aise mei apne partner ki kami mehsus hoti hai. Uspe Maa toh saalon  saal tak apne bachon ko dekh hi jeeti hai uspe bacha unse baat na kare, unka haal na puche toh bura toh lagega hi!! Mumma ki koi galti nahi hai usmei!!" Anamika exclaims her point while caressing his cheek, trying to make him realise his mistake.

Vineet pulled down her hand.

''Tum bhi Maa ki tarah baatein kar rahi ho aab. Aisa lagta hai jaane kya kar diya meine jo sab itna ukhad rahe hai mujh pe. Pehli baar aisa hua hai, iss se pehle hamesha tum dono ke liye khada raha hoon main par tumhe wo yaad nahi bas thoda cut off hua toh ussi ka taana de rage hai sab as if jaan bujh ke kiya ho meine!!" Vineet says, his tone changes to anger. Anamika finds it weird, he never gets angry over them but today he's enraged all of the sudden.

Anamika leaves him, if he can't understand her. She's not interested in talking to him. She may have been easy last night because she thought he's guilty of his act but no, he doesn't care about it and thinks that they are at fault not him.

''Fine!! Karo kya karna hai!! Tum khud puch rahe the tabhi bataya meine nahi toh shauk nahi hai mujhe logon ko unko galtiyan batati firu. And obviously, apna business sambhal ke kuch set nahi kiya hai tumne balki apni family se dur ho gaye ho par humse toh tumhe fark hi nahi padta toh let it be. Karo jo tumhe sahi lage!" She shouted and left from there leaving him astonished.

He couldn't understand why she shouted over him. He was just verbalizing his point of view, ok he got a little angry but he doesn't mean to hurt her.

Vineet immediately followed her in the room, she wasn't there but in the washroom taking a shower.

He sits on the bed and waits for her, he needs to clear out things.

After a few moments she stepped in the room, getting ready in formals.

''Aaj kahan jaa rahi ho?" He questions finding her all ready to go.

''Bangalore!! Important kaam hi!! 10 - 15 din mei aa jayungi!!" She informs him coldly, as she ties her hair and pulls out her packed bag from the closet. She always keeps a bag packed for emergencies.

''Achanak!?? Tumne toh bataya tak nahi!!" He was surprised and shocked. He moves towards her and stands before her, she looks at him.

''Mera kaam tumhare mood ke hisab se toh ho nahi sakta na. It's urgent and i'm getting late, already bewajah ki baaton mei time waste kar chuka hoon apna.'' She let out a sigh and took hold of her bag.

Vineet cups her face,''Jaan, I'm sorry!! Main tumhe hurt nahi karna chahta tha, bas maa ki wajah se thoda pareshan hoon toh gussa aa gaya.'' He says apologetically.

''Tumhare sorry se sab thik nahi ho jaayega na Vineet. Meine toh kuch aisa bola bhi nahi ki tumhe gussa aaye, bas ek baat thi jo samjhane ki koshish ki tumhe par tum samajhna hi nahi chahte. Actually the point is tum inn 6 months mei bahut badal gaye ho!! Jab tum khush hote ho toh tumhe lagta hai sab sahi ho par jab khudka mood off hota hai toh chahte ho hum bhi ghar mei band ho jaaye jo ho bhi raha hai par tumhe fir bhi kadr nahi. Itni si baat pe toh tum kabhi hote tak nahi par aaj jaane kyun aise react kar rahe ho. I hope ye change temporary ho, business ke dhun mei impulsive decisions na le lo ki fir jeevan bhar pachtana padd jaaye!!" She exclaims meaningfully, his expression suddenly changes for a moment but he manages to keep himself normal.

''Main aisa kuch nahi kar raha jo pachtana pade!!" He exclaims.

''Good for you!!'' She says and leaves the room.

Vineet followed her. She heads to their mother's room, Savita was reading a book, upon finding her approaching she puts down the book and looks at her.

Anamika secures her seat on the bed and holds her hand.

''Mumma main Bangalore jaa rahi hoon kuch din ke liye. Ek urgent kaam hai, chod nahi sakti!! Aap tension maat lena, main aapko call karti rahungi!!" Anamika ensures her but Savita doesn't seem to be pleased to know of her sudden departure.

''Itni achanak!? Aaj toh hum babar jaane wale the na? Aab tu bhi aise karegi toh kaise chalega.'' She expresses her feelings.

''Mujhe bhi kuch der pehle hi call aaya. Iss case pe Kabse kaam kar rahi hoon toh chod bhi nahi sakti but I promise mere wapas aaye hi hum jahan aap kaho wahan jaayenge! Bas kuch din, please Mumma!" Anamika requested, she understand that the lady wants some good family time but she can't help it, she can't avoid her work.

Savita half-heartedly nodded and pecked her head, wishing her luck. Anamika smiles widely and pecks her cheek. She takes her blessing and takes her leave.

Vineet accompanied her to the Airport, though she denied but he insisted and she had to agree as she doesn't want to have any argument at the moment.

...

They stand at the airport facing each other. He was holding her hand while she was getting late.

''Vineet mujhe late ho raha hai!!" She told him.

Her tone says how angry and hurt she is with him. She never takes his name and when she does it means she's upset and angry.

''I'm sorry na Sweety!! I know meri galti hai, main manta hoon par tum iss tarah naraaz hoke toh maat jao.'' He almost requested and she sighs.

''Vineet meri flight chut jaayegi. Hum phone pe bhi baat kar sakte hai!! Rahi baat naraazgi ki toh inn 10 dino mei hum dono ka gussa shant ho jaayega fir sab jaisa tha waisa hi ho jaayega. Yun samajh lo humare relation ko iss 10 din ke break ki jarurat hai.'' She expresses, pulling her hand from his grip.

Vineet hugs her tight before she leaves and lets her go knowing that stopping her will only worsen the situation.

In no time she was out of his sight and he sighs deeply, he had actually messed up his relations while trying to stabilize his business.

....

Ten days passed in moments but Anamika didn't return. Though her mood was again at her usual self but her work increased and it's already 18th day and there isn't any sign of her.

Vineet was disheartened for many reasons but does not word his feelings. He wanted to have a face to face talk with her but the lady is busy in her own world.

It's the 19th day and Anamika still wanted some time. Savita was angry, why won't she? First her son doesn't give her time and now Anamika is doing the same. Vineet's silent mode and cut off could be bear because he's always busy with his work but Anamika has been keeping the house lively. Despite having a busy schedule she would sit with the elderly lady, they talk and laugh together, exchange feelings, help each other and now that Anamika is missing, Savita finds it hard to even breath in her own house.

''Kab aayegi ye ladki?? 10 din bolke gayi 20 hone ko aaye aur iska pata nahi. Jaane itna kya kaam rehta hai logon ko jo sab bhool jaate hai, aane doh khabar lungi uski.'' Savita scoffs, hitting her spoon on the plate.

Vineet gazes at his mother, she was hardly eating anything.

''Maa, breakfast toh karo aache se. Jab wo ayegi tab baat karna, abhi apna dhyan rakho!" He says Savita rolls her eyes but doesn't say anything.

She shifts her concentration on her plate when a loud noise distracts them.

''Mumma!!!" It's Anamika's voice.

The lady just entered the house shouting for her mother. She ran to the dining table and hugged Savita kissing her cheek.

''Oh, Mumma!! I missed you so much!!" She exclaims, gripping on her tightly.

''Chal chal jhooth maat bol!! Yaad aati toh jaldi aa jaati tu par tujhe fursat hi kahan mere liye, bas kaam kaam yahi sujhta hai sabko!" Savita mocked anger as she turned away her head.

''Aww!!! I'm sorry!! Kaam khatam hote itna waqt laag gaya ki pata hi nahi chala. Par you should be proud of me, aapki bachi ne aab tak ka most complicated case solve kiya hai!! Aur main apni sweetest Mumma ke liye Kolkata ke Rasgulle lai hoon!!" Anamika exclaims in a joyous way, making Savita and Vineet smile at her words.

Anamika calls for a maid servant and asks her to serve the sweet to Vineet and Savita. The lady nods and takes it inside to serve in bowls.

''Aaja baith!! Breakfast karte hai!" Savita says holding her hand, Anamika denies.

''Mumma, I need to take shower first. Aap khao, main badh mei khati hoon!" She replies in a calm tone, Savita nods.

Anamika ran to her room taking her bag while the mother and son had their breakfast.

...

Anamika takes shower, the cold water relaxes her nerves but her heart is still accelerating. She doesn't know how will she face Vineet when he'll come to know about her act, the reason why it takes her  19 days to complete her task.

The mere thought shivers her, he would be angry when he gets to know that she went to chennai and met the contractor and property agent who made the deal between Vineet and Ranga Shetty.

The guts were shocked when she told them about the condition of land. Though they refuse to accept the fact because the land doesn't seem to be defective from any point. She even met the lawyer who made the papers, he too told her the same - ensures her about the land. Anamika was disheartened, it feels they are refusing to accept the truth.

The guys were suspicious over her but she manages to convince them that she's just a common villager and has been hearing about the defect in land for years. They seem convinced but she's scared.

If Vineet gets to know this, he won't spare her. He's a calm headed person but his anger is unbearable. He hardly gets angry and when it happens it is hard to calm him.

She came out of her trance with some noise. Vineet was calling for her from outside. She turned off the shower and slipped in a bathrobe.

She moves out only to find him waiting for her sitting on bed. She smiles at him, he approaches her. Anamika engulfs him in a warm hug and pecks his cheek getting the same from him.

''I missed you baby!!" He exclaims as he tightens his grip on her. She caressed his back in response.

How easily he has been doing wrong. Not just the contractor, the lawyer, the agent and even Ranga Shetty are with him. It's a big plan, they are doing it to earn poor people money, will it do any good to them? Never!!

She never expected this from Vineet. People worship him for his magnanimity but it seems he doesn't care about it, all he cares is to make up for his loss.

Why?? When did he become such a money minded person?? They have enough money then what is the need behind all this?

Vineet pulls out from hug and taps her cheek.

''Aab kya soch rahi ho? Still thinking about the case??" He questions taking her to the bed.

She shook her head negatively.

''Tumhari mumma se baat hui? Kuch kaha unhone? Baat bani?" She questions him, diverting his mind.

His face turns pale,''Nahi!! Unko sui ek hi baat pe atki hui hai, dusri baat sunne ko ready hi nahi hai wo aab aise mei main kya karu pata nahi.'' He let out a sigh while she moved to the closet and pulled out a dress for herself.

''Arey, unko baat maano na fir!! Tabse tumhari wajah se hi mood off ho rakha hai unka aab wo kuch keh rahi hai toh tum maan na rahe ho.'' She scolded him.

Vineet gazes at her, he heads to her and hugs her from behind.

''Itna aasan bhi nahi wo dena jo wo chahti hai mujh se, hota toh de chuka hota. Khair, aab tum aa gayi ho toh unka mood aise hi thik ho jaayega. You say, aaj toh free ho na?" He asks, hiding his face between her neck and shoulder.

''Hmm!! Meine one month break liya kaam se!! Par mujhe mumma ke saath bahar jana hai, pehle hi jana tha but kaam ki wajah se ho nahi paya.'' She told him as she held his hand on her stomach trying to enter inside her bathrobe.

''Main bhi chali?" He asks to which she nodded.

''Your wish!! Par fir ye na kehna ki bore ho rahe ho kyunki hum toh shopping pe hi jaayenge toh complaint nai karna samjhe!!" She instructed him.

''Okay baba!! Nahi karunga complaint!! Tum ready ho jao, main Maa se kehta hoon.'' He says and leaves the room.

Anamika watched him going, he's again up to something. His action and cold behavior says it all.

Anamika sighs and takes another dress to get ready when Vineet again enters the room.

''Maa abhi jana nahi chahti kahin. Unhone kaha aaj rest kar lo fir kal jaayenge.'' He told her, Anamika smiles and nods.

''So it means main aaram se so sakti hoon!!" She exclaims and jumps on the bed.

She laid down on the bed, crossing her leg one over another.

''Hash!! Sunkoon!!" She exclaims, she was already tired but doesn't want to upset the lady so forth she decides to go out with her.

Vineet takes his seat on his side.

''Tumhe office nahi jana?" She questions, finding him in his tee and shorts.

''Nahi!! Jyada kaam nahi tha aur Maa bhi akeli thi toh socha na jau!!" He replies gazing at her all the while as if wanting to ask something.

Anamika nods and closes her eyes. Even though she know he's trying to converse may be about the argument they had the other day but she don't want to talk about it at the moment as it will only make her think about his behavior more and more and it's obvious he'll defend himself with his extra sugary words and she would have to submit herself for she would probably not able to hold on her emotions. But being honest, she's too tired to even hear him. She wants some sleep, actually good sleep without any disturbance.

Vineet sighs but caresses her cheek.

''Abb bhi naraaz ho?? I'm sorry na baba, mera woh matlab bhi nahi tha.'' He spoke but she was ready asleep. He patted her head and took his leave.

....

Anamika grimaces, she opens her eyes with the ring of her phone. She attended the call which was from the officer in charge. He told her about the closing of the case, Anamika hummed and talked for a few minutes.

Disconnecting the call she looks around. Her room was dark, she checked the time it shows 7 PM!! She sits up instantly.

''Uff, itna late kaise ho gaya. Urgh!! Vineet!!" She calls for him as she descends the bed and switches on the lights.

Not getting any reply from him she moves to the balcony. He was there only, sipping his coffee sitting on the recliner.

''Tum yahan baithe ho aur jawan bhi nahi dete. Itna late ho gaya, mujhe uthaya toh hota.'' She pouted, heading towards him.

He holds her hand and makes her sit on his lap. Anamika hugs him, throwing her arms around his shoulder and placing her head on his chest. He caressed her back gently.

''Tum so rahi thi toh jagana sahi nahi laga. Fir tum thak bhi gayi thi case ki wajah se toh socha sone hi doon.'' He says forwarding his coffee to her, she happily takes it and takes a few sips.

Vineet smiles at her act, he removes her hair from her face and caresses her cheek.

''How was your case? I'm sure koi kasar toh nahi chodi hogi tumne sach ka pata lagane ko!" He exclaims, his voice doesn't seem to be questioning but accusing.

Anamika smiles away,''puche maat!! Iss case ne deemag kharab kar diya puri tarah, par I'm glad ki kaam hua.'' She replies and hands over the coffee mug to him, he places it on the side table and leans on the back.

She leaned closer to him,''abhi bhi gussa ho?" She questions him while adjusting herself on his lap, caressing his lips with her thumb. His hand rested on her exposed thigh.

''Main kahan gussa hoon, tum hi naraaz hoke chali gayi thi.'' He makes a face.

She giggles leaning closer, he tilted his head a little giving her access and she captured his lips in a passionate smooch. He closes his eyes feeling her pressing herself onto him, he rigged his fingers on her thighs as she deepened the smooch and growl in his mouth making him lose his control.

They were fully engrossed in their smooch, Vineet's hand caressed the inner wall of her thighs she moaned again feeling his touch while her hands were busy unlocking his ipad which was on the side table.

Getting romantic all of the sudden was just a play part, she wanted that ipad to get proof that he's doing wrong. She wanted to send all the files in her laptop but the iPad refused to cooperate. She had seen the password the other day when Vineet unlocked it and showed her his project designs. She clearly remembers the password but it's not working now.

She growls in anger and moans again when he bites her lips. She pulled back, he pushed away her hair behind.

''Itni jaanatoh jihan karne ki toh jarurat bhi nahi Jaan!! Lao, main khol deta hoon!!" He expressed and snatched the ipad from her hand. He opened it and forwarded it to her. Anamika's face colour faded, her body turned cold as he smooched her again harshly and left her after a moment.

''So, what did Ranga say?? Is he fine?'' He questions shocking her to the core.

''Vineet!!!'' She takes his name placing her hand on his chest.

''I must say, bahut aachi investigative officer ban sakti ho tum. Itni investigation toh shayad koi criminal ki bhi nahi karta kitni tumne meri kar li, woww!! Bahut khub Biwi!!" He spoke sarcastically, his eyes were bloodshot deadly.

''Waise agar tum samne se hi puch leti toh bhi main tumhe bata hi deta. Chennai jaa ke itni mehnat karne ki jarurat nahi thi na hi yahan baith ke mujhe distract karne ki!!

He pulls her by the neck.

Lagta hai tum bhool gayi ki tumhare saath law school mei main bhi tha! Bhale hi court mei practice na ki ho par bahut kuch janta toh main bhi hoon hi, hai na!? Tell me one thing, bewajah tum itna bhag kyun rahi ho? Kuch hasil hua? Nahi na, fir kya faida?

He let out a sarcastic chuckle.

Ek baat batau, shaq toh tum pe ussi raat ho gaya tha jab tum balcony mei mere ipad ke saath khadi thi aur mere aate hi chupa diya use. Shayad tum ye bhool gayi ki main tumhare raag raag se wakif hoon, tumhari sanso se tumhare dil mei kya chal raha hai jaan sakta hoon fir bhi kitna bada game khela mere saath. I didn't expect this from you!! You broke my trust Biwi!!

He gritted his teeth, digging his fingers on her thigh trying to control his anger. Her act was already suspicious and added to that her visit to the lawyer's office in chennai proved to be a wrong step. The guy recognised her and informer Vineet who crossed check with the contractor and agent.

Anamika pushes away his hand on her thigh.

''Really!? Meine tumhara trust toda? Ya tum hum sab ka trust tod rahe ho. Vineet, expect meine bhi nahi kiya tha ki tum kabhi aisa karoge. Infact, mujhe ab bhi vishwas nahi ho raha ki jis insaan ko main apna idol samajhti hoon, jis se mujhe prerna milti hai sahi rah pe chalne ki wo aisa kuch karega!! Vineet, log pujte hai tumhe par tum bas kuch paiso ke liye sabka trust tod rahe ho. Sabko majbur kar rahe ho ye sochte pe ki sach mei koi insaan aacha nahi hota, paise ke samne log apna imaan tak bech dete hai.'' She confronts him.

''Main kuch galat nahi kar raha!" He clarifies.

She gave him a deadly glare,''tum galat ho Vineet!! Wo jameen daldali hai, wo saari building saal bhar bhi nahi tik paayengi par fir bhi tum wahan building banwa rahe ho, park bana rahe ho. Kya tumhe andaza nahi kitna ghatak hai ye, agar wo building giri toh kitne logon ki maut hogi, agar wo park ki jameen phati toh kai masoom bachon ki jaan chali jaayegi? Tumhe jara bhi fikra nahi hai unki?? Har mahine jo orphanage mei jaa ke donation karte ho unke saath ghanto baithe ho kya wo sab dikhawa hai? Kyunki Jisne dil saaf hai wo kabhi aisa nahi karega!! Par tum kar rahe ho, kyun?? Kya kami hai humei??" She puts on the questions, her heart still refuses to accept the fact that Vineet is doing all this.

''Meine kissi ko dhokha nahi diya hai na hi samne se iss jameen ko becha. Mere pass log ye plan leke aye the aur mujhe bas apna loss make up karna tha. Mera kaam jo hai main wahi kar raha hoon badh mei kuch ho toh wo meri zimmedari nahi hai!" He exclaims, clearing his name.

Anamika smiles sarcastically.

''Galat ka saath dene wala bhi galat hi hota hai par tumhare aankhon pe toh paison ki patti chadhi hai kuch dekhegi kaise. Uss park mei jaane kitne masoom bache honge par tumhe koi fark nahi padta. Sahi hai padega  bhi kyun, hamara khudka toh koi bacha hai nahi jo tumhe value ho. Par aacha hi hai ki hamara Koi bacha nahi hai warna aaj tumhara ye sach jaan ke sharm aati use khud pe. Jo insaan dusron ke bachon ke baare mei nahi sochta uss se Koi umeed bhi kya kare. Aaj tak mujhe baar baar regret hota raha khud ke decision pe par aaj bahut khush hoon main ki humne khudka bacha nahi kiya because you're not worth it!!" Anamika shouted out loud pushing him away. Her body burning like fire due to anger, she turns to go but his act shocked and scared her to the core.

.....

To be continued…
