Aarav was sitting on the bed, he kept his head on his forehead. Manvi entered inside the room she kept her hand on her shoulder and he looked at her with sudden jerk. He looked at her, Manvi asked "kya hua Aarav? Tumhe pasina kyun aa raha hai itna?"

He removed the sweat from his forehead "abhi aaya hoon na to isliye" he said.

Manvi smiled and turned on the aircon. She then hands him the coffee "ye lo tumhari coffee"

He took the mug from her hand and starts sipping the coffee.

Angel entered inside the room with plate in her hand and said "Manvi ye snacks tum kitchen mein bhool aayi thi"

Manvi smiled "oh.. Aarav ko de do" her phone rang and it was her mother calling. She picked up the call and moved out of the room.

Angel forwards the plate to Aarav with a smile on her face "lijiye na jiju"

Aarav gets hold of the plate, Angel did not left the plate and started at him. She placed her other hand on top of his palm. Aarav removed his hand away and moved out.

Manvi saw him coming out of the room and said "maa main aapse baat mein baat karti hoon" and ended the call.

She asked "Aarav kya hua? Jabse aaye ho pareshan ho?"

Aarav said "manvi main hoon na tumhara khayal rakhne ko to tumhari behen ki kya zaroorat hai tum usey jaane ke liye kahdo"

Manvi was surprised and said "Are kal to tum kah rahe they tumhe help mil jayegi aur aaj usey bejhne ke liye kah rahe ho tum itna strange kyun behave kar rahe ho?"

Aarav glanced at her and tried to convince her "manvi main hoon na usko jaane ke liye kaho"

Manvi answered him "Aarav main nhi kah sakti hoon maa ko kitna bura lagega aur Angel ko bhi ab tak delivery nhi ho jaati wo yahi rahegi aur tum fikar kyun kar rahe ho? Wo hamari privacy thodi disturb karegi" she said with winking at him.

Aarav just passed a light smile to her. Angel came out and said "Are ye kya jiju? Aapne kuch khaya nhi dekho na Manvi mere jija iss saali ko zara sa bhi attention nhi de rahe" she eyed Aarav.

Manvi smiled and said "dekho tum saali jija ke beech mujhe to padna nhi hai.."

Angel smiled, she kept the plate on the table and said "Exactly Manvi and abhi tumhe jaake sona chahiye it is getting late"

Manvi spoke up "Are lekin Aarav ka khana"

Angel pushed her into the room and said "main de dungi na.. Tum abhi chup chap jaake soh jao"

Manvi smiled "okay.." and went in to sleep.

Aarav moved to the kitchen, he himself took the food. Angel stood at the entrance and smiled "kya baat hai? Jabse main aayi hoon thik se dekh bhi nhi rahe ho mujhe"

Aarav ignored her and moved out, Angel held his hand. Aarav said calmly "leave my hand"

Angel left, Aarav moved and sat on the dining table. He starts eating the food, Angel sat opposite him and stared at him.

"You were married and tumne mujhe bataya bhi nhi" Angel said in a bit anger tone.

Aarav sighed and looked at her "dekho Angel uss din hamare beech jo hua wo bas ek galti thi isse zyada kuch nhi"

Angel said "galti? Lekin mere liye wo pyar tha samjhe tum!"

Aarav replied "I am sorry Angel, I know mujhse galti hui hai aur uske liye main sharminda bhi hoon" saying which he moved to kitchen. He kept the dishes into the basin.

Angel came and turned him around and shouted "galti my foot! Jab tum shaadi shuda they to kyun aaye mere qareeb haan?"

Aarav said "chillao mat Manvi uth jayegi"

Angel said angrily "uthne do I don't care, london mein tumhare aur mere beech jo hua use bhi to pata hona chahiye"

They heard a voice "kya pata hona chahiye mujhe"

Aarav and Angel turned towards the voice. Aarav was nervous, he said "Manvi.."

Manvi entered inside and asked "kya pata hona chahiye mujhe? Angel? Why are you angry"

Angel looked at Aarav and smiled "Manvi wo jiju dekho mujhe kuch kaam hi nhi karne de rahe hai khud hi aa gaye ye dishes saaf karne"

Aarav relaxed a bit.. Manvi smiled "oh.. Iski to aadat hai acha Angel mujhe na tumse bahut saari baatein karni hai tum chalo na mere room mein"

Aarav spoke up "manvi lekin mujhe sona hai na.. Kal office jana hai early"

Angel glared at him and said "offo jiju aap to hamesha hi meri behen ke saath rahte ho main kuch mahino mein chali jaungi tab tak aap kahi aur manage kijiye"

Aarav denies and said "jee nhi mujhe meri biwi ke saath hi sona hai"

He pulled Manvi out from there, Manvi sighed and said "Aarav ye kya tarika hai? Meri behen hai"

Aarav stopped, he turned to her. Manvi pats his cheeks and says "Aarav itne saalo baad usse mulakat hui hai please na baat maano aaj raat tum guest room mein soh jao"

Aarav sighed and said "okay fine lekin sirf aaj"

Manvi hugged him "thank you.."

Manvi called Angel and they moved into the bedroom. Aarav moved to the guest room and he thinks "isne Manvi ko kuch nhi bataya kyun?"

He lay on bed and closed his eyes. Around 12 pm, he felt a soft touch on his face. He opened his eyes but it was dark. He turned on the side lamp and was stunned seeing angel. He stood up with jerk and asked "tum yahan kya kar rahi ho?"

"Kuch naya to nhi hai na?" rubbing her index finger on his lips.

Aarav jerked away her hand and said "Angel please.. Dekho uss din jo hua wo bas ek galti thi aur kuch nhi"

Angel slapped on his face and said in anger "lekin mere liye wo pyar tha samjhe aur wo ek baar kiya to dubara kyun nhi ho sakta"

Aarav was shocked hearing this and said "what? Main tumhari behen ka pati hoon how can you say that"

Angel eyed him and said "tab bhi to they na.. Ye sab tumhe pehle sochna chahiye tha now do as I say"

Aarav warned her "listen angel that was just my mistake aur mujhe tumse koi rishta rakhna hi nhi hai just leave from here"

"Itna attitude" Angel got up and smiled broadly, she asked "Toh tum meri baat nhi manoge?"

Aarav just glared at her and said "get out"

"Toh thik hai ek kaam karte hai Manvi ko abhi bata dete hai london mein tumne kaise mujhe fasaya aur mere saath raat guzari fir Manvi tumhe maaf nhi karegi usko shock lagega aur kahi stress ke maare uska miscarriage ho gaya to" she acted to be scared.

Aarav could not even just think about this. Angel then smirked "bata doon?"

Aarav said scaredly "tum aisa nhi kar sakti behen hai wo tumhari"

"Isliye to usko sach pata hona chahiye.. Main bata deti hoon usko" saying which she moved towards the door.

Aarav got up from bed and stopped her "nhi Angel please kuch mat kehna usko"

Angel turned towards him, she pats his cheeks and said "thik hai aap kehte ho to nhi kehti jija ji lekin aapko meri baat manni padegi samjhe aap" she left from there. Aarav locked the door.

Aarav thinks "nahi wo toh bas ek galti thi ab aisa nhi hoga.. Mujhe hi Manvi ko batana hoga kal subah bataunga"

The next morning, Aarav came to the room. Manvi was still sleeping, he placed a soft kiss on her forehead. Manvi opened her eyes and said "Good morning"

"Good morning" Aarav replied.

Some kind of fear and tension was on his face which was not hidden from Manvi. She asked him "Aarav kya hua? Kuch batana chahte ho?"

Aarav nodded in yes "haan Manvi.. Wo main london gaya tha na.. Waha mujhe ek ladki mili aur I slept with her" he said..

Manvi locked at him shockingly, Aarav further said "mujhse galti ho gayi Manvi.. Aur wo ladki angel thi.."

Manvi had tears in her eyes, she slapped him hard on his face "how could you aarav? Tumne mera bharosa thoda hai.." her breaths became heavy. She loses her conscious and falls on his shoulder.

Aarav jerked her "manvi.. Manvi.."

He woke up with jerk, it was his dream.

He thinks "ye sapna tha.. Nahi wo bardasht nhi kar payegi abhi main use kuch nhi bata sakta lekin main Angel ki bhi baat nhi manunga.. Kya karoon main"
