"Say what? "

" Yes. Maya and I have a 4 year old son, Aadhik. "

" Wait...Wait... What's happening? You lied to me all these 4 years."

" Not at all. Even I got to know few days back? "

" That means you had maintained a physical relationship with her without my knowledge. "

" Hmmmm.... Yes we had that relationship. " he replied looking at the floor.

" How many times? "

" I don't remember. "

" I can't believe this. How could you lie to me. "

" We were married and staying together. It happens. I didn't tell you so you don't get hurt. "

" But how can you be so sure that baby is yours? Who knows how many man that b**ch might have f**ked? "

" Stop it Tanya. Don't speak anything about anyone. You're a woman and must maintain the dignity. "

" Why should I? She is an unmarried mother. I hope you know how society looks at such kind of woman? You can shut my mouth but not everyone's. "

" She's divorced Tanya, let me remind you that. "

" Divorce? From where the question of divorce arises when you never married her legally. All the papers you made were false? "

" But Maya didn't know anything. Why are you giving her such names? "

" Why are you taking her side. "

" I'm not taking anyone's side. That is truth. "

" Now what do you want? Go back to that... that Maya? "

" No. I just want my Aadhik with me. We will take him with us to London? "

" Freak...His son will come with us? No way. I can't let that happen. I have to do something. " Maya thought.

" Vikram I know you crave for him but... Even Aadhik can't stay without his mother. A child can manage without father but not mother. For your son at least drop the plan. "

He thought for a while.

" I know what you're saying isn't wrong. But... anyways will talk about it later. Bye. "

" Bye...By the way, Vikram I forgot to inform you. It's a reunion party from our college day after tomorrow. Are you coming? "

" Reunion and all ah? I can't promise. But will try. "

" Please... Please... "

" Anything for you my love. "

He gave a flying kiss and left.

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

Next day, Vikram woke up, did his morning activities and left for office. He saw Maya passing by.

" Maya. "

" Sir.. "

" Meet me. "

" Okay. "

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

" Will Maya go to the party? I doubt though. "

" Sir. You called me? "

" Check the contents of the file and provide me with the necessary amendments if any needed. "

" Sure. "

" Maya. Have you got the call for college reunion party? "

" Yes sir. "

" Tanya and I are going. What about you? "

" Tanya? "

" Yeah she has given a surprise visit last night only. "

" oh..."

" So are you coming? "

" I don't think I can. "

" Why? I think you're not coming to avoid Tanya and me. "

" Nothing like that. Okay I'll try. "

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

At the party,

Vikram and Tanya were talking to their friends.

" Maya not here yet. May be she won't come. " Vikram thought.

" Hey look isn't that Maya? Vikram's ex girlfriend? "

Tanya gave a deadly glare to her friend while she realised her words and looked down.

Vikram looked at the door to find Maya clad in a saree with bindi and minimal makeup. He was awestruck. He was always mad about this look of hers.

She came and greeted her friends.

" Look Mayank. Isn't that Maya? Your crush? "

Vikram heard those words and became alert.

" Oh yes. It's her only. Look she still looks the same beautiful. Gosh her eyes. She hasn't lose even a bit of her charm. "

" Just a little weight she has put on. "

" It has added to her beauty. "

" Go and try one more chance. I heard girls that she is single still. "

Vikram was already clenching his jaw at their words. He closed his eyes and remembered.

*Flashback*

" Why didn't you reply to my message last night Maya? "

" I was busy I told you na. My parents took me out for a dinner. "

" Or were you busy texting that Mayank? "

" Mayank? Who's he now? "

" The one who stares at you all the time like he's seeing a girl for the first time. "

" I swear I don't know him. And I'm committed to you now. You're my would be husband. Get it? "

She replied pinching his nose.

*Flashback ends*

" Vikram "

" Yeah? "

" Let's go and dance. "

" Okay... "

He looked at Maya who was being offered to dance by Mayank. At first she refused. Later he kinda forced her to dance.

A slow romantic music was played with him light. Everyone started dancing with their partners. Vikram and Tanya were dancing together. He never expect Maya would agree to dance with mayank, it irks him. While dancing, Vikram's eyes fixed on them, when mayank was touching her back and waist, vikram clutched Tanya's shoulder harshly.

" Ouch. What are you doing? "

" Sorry. "

Now it was the time for partner change. Maya was about to land on someone else's arms when she felt a tug and in no moment she found herself in Vikram's arms.
