Mom and dad were discussing about the project and business but I was least interested to listen to their talk as I saw my life sitting beside me lifeless.

I don't know what she is thinking but her eyes have lost the spark as if she is thinking something deeply, but everything went well infact it went as per our plan then what is she thinking??

I asked her few times and she just said she is little tired.

I switched on the TV so that I can distract her.

TV.....

Business channel....

Today Godadia Company stood first in project bidding program, everytime Maheshwari's used to bang first place and it's first time they have accepted the defeat. Lakshya Maheshwari just smiled when he was asked about their second place, but it just a smile behind the loss or was he thinking where he went wrong.

Mr.Godadia was very happy that his ladies has won the title for him let's see the .....

I hear a sniffing sound.

Ap " Ragini?? Beta y r u crying?? "

I was shocked to see her like this.

Dp" Partner what happened?? "

She was still staring the TV, I got it!!
She is crying because she feels that she is the reason for Maheswari's to settle in second place??

God!!

I immediately switched off TV and hugged her.

R " I.... I am sorry MA and par.... Partner I am really sorry.... "

Dp " sorry but y?? "

L "she feels because of her we lost the title"

Ap " what made u think like that beta?? "

R " MA, for my stupid revenge I didn't like u people losing and I felt pain when I saw her mocking u, it's all because of me u had to listen to her"

L " someone said something to u?? "

I asked MA and she started to narrate.

Flashback.....

Sumi " Annapurna, do u remember I told u we will meet at the end of the party and let u know who will win and see I won "

Ap " congrats by the way "

Sumi " that's what happens if u let ur employees play with ur reputation"

She looked at Ragini.

R " MA I think we should leave "

Sumi " off course take ur mam from here she may not be able to see how she has lost the title to Godadia's, this day is really special "

Ap turned back to leave but she called again.

Sumi " I will surely send the invitation for the success party,come along with ur family and favourite employee "

End of flashback.....

I gritted my teeth.

What sort of a woman is she??

Ap " ssh....enough Ragu beta, we have faith on u both that u have some plan to make them win,we won't ask that and I don't care, all we care is ur happiness "

Dp " yes beta, it's a stupid title. My daughter is more important to me than any deal "

I smiled at them and I squeezed Ragini's hand, she hugged both Ma and dad.

Dp " never think u can be the reason of our failure, u r precious to us "

She nodded.

L " MA I am taking Ragini out "

Ap " good, because I was about to tell the same "

Dp " keep her safe "

Off course, I will always keep her safe.

R " but it's already late, it's around 10pm "

L " so?? I want to give a treat to my wife "

She frowned.

L " common Ragini it's time for celebration, our plan went well "

She smiled and I wiped her tears.

**********************************

Thud!!

Swa " MA?? "

She slapped me??

Tears started to flow from my eyes.

Shek"Sumi leave her "

MA glared me.

Swa " what did I do MA?? Y did u slap me?? "

Sumi " u don't know?? How dare u to leave the thing which u like?? How can u sacrifice?? That too for that orphan girl "

Swa " MA she is Ragini, she is very good person "

Sumi " keep ur mouth shut, today she has snatched the project tomorrow she will snatch ur Sanskar "

I so badly wanted to tell like that nothing will happen as my Sanskar has already proposed me.

Shek " Sumi let her go, atlast we have won that's enough and it's time for celebration "

MA sighed but she glared me.

Sumi " listen carefully when u like something u should snatch it by hook or crook "

I left to my room but I couldn't sleep I was remembering our conversation.

I will call Sanskar, at least if I speak with him I will feel better.

📱 ......

Swa " hello "

San " Swara I am busy now I will call u later "

Swa " but San "

He ended the call??

What has happened to everyone??

I am afraid now what might have happened that at around 11pm what he is doing that he is busy!!

Shall I call Suji aunty??

It's not good to disturb her at present.

I will call her early morning to know what has happened to him??

************************************

Shek " I am so happy today u should have looked at that Durgaprasad Maheshwari"

I smirked.

Sumi " even I have given a good dose to that Annapurna Maheshwari, but still that woman trusts that Ragini more."

His face fell hearing Ragini's name.

I raised my eyebrows

Shek " I feel something is wrong "

Wrong??

Shek " didn't u see Lakshya Maheshwari was very cool, he never accepts defeat. He just smiled to the reporters, that smile which held satisfaction. U also know after Ragini joining with them she has just increased their profit and today they let go off the chance. I still can't believe "

He is right but I don't care.

Sumi " but she tried to get the last one, didn't u see she increased the bid from lakhs to crores.Above that I don't care, we won that's what we need to know "

He was still drowned in those thoughts.

I rolled my eyes.

Sumi " u r such a coward Shekhar, u r still the same person who got scared to follow my plan when we befriended with that Janki I need to push u in each step. "

Shek " why are u talking about Janki?? She is our past "

I sighed.

But this Ragini she reminds me always of Janki, same shine in her eyes, the way she gives back the answers, never give up attitude everything.

Shek " now where are u lost??"

Sumi " we have to throw a party "

Shek " within a week all the buildings and projects what we have bid will be on our name so next month we can arrange a party"

I nodded.

************************************

I was looking at my husband who was feeding me popcorn watching movie.

He took me to ice cream parlor along with that we went for a walk. Later we settled to watch movie in our room as next week I will stay in hostel only.

L " Ragini?? "

R " Hmm"

L " Raginiii?? "

R " Hmm"

I looked at him this time.

L " why don't u stay here only?? There is no need to stay in hostel that too for a week "

I chuckled and he pulled me more towards him.

R " 4 months to the final exam and I will be permanently staying in this mansion, in the same room in ur embrace "

He gave me his breath taking smile.

He leaned forward to lock my lips but my phone started to ring.

R " sorry "

I got up and saw my phone....

Mamu??

R "Mamuuuuuuu "

M " how are u Ragu beta??"

R " that I should ask u mamu, how r u?? Did u take the tablets?? "

I can hear his laugh..

M " I am fine, Arnav is not letting me to enter the office, he himself takes care of everything and Kushi she makes sure that I should take tablets"

I smiled.

Lakshya came and sat beside me.

M " how is my son?? "

R " we all are fine mamu "

M " I was watching TV and "

I know where it is leading to.

M " how can u lead that woman win Ragini?? I know we are not taking revenge for the past but I can't see someone making u lose that to from Godadias "

I don't know how to say him,i made Maheshwari to lose, my grip on my phone started to lose before it fell from my hand, Lakshya took it and started to speak.

I was so engrossed in my thoughts that I don't know that he spoke for about ten minutes, he gave my phone back.

M " Ragu?? "

R " ha Mamu"

M " I am very happy to listen, let them count their lies sitting in the jail "

I smiled and he said me good night.

I looked at Lakshya.

L " don't stare me wifey, ur husband can't control more "

I blushed.

U r a magician.

R " what did u tell Mamu?? "

L " TRUTH "

************************************

Swa " Deepika?? "

She turned back.

D " yes Di "

Swa " u r sitting alone in the library?? Where is Ragini and Gauri?? "

D " Gauri is in canteen, she was going on eating like she was starving from months "

I laughed at her comment.

S " Ragini?? "

D " hmm... She is getting ready"

Getting ready??

Swa " just five minutes is left for the class to start"

She suddenly got up from her place taking a book in her hand.

D " I remembered that I should be there in class before five minutes otherwise lecturer won't allow us inside"

Why is Ragini late today??

I was on my way to the class when I bumped with Ragini.

Swa " y r u late?? "

R "my books were in hostel so I have to reach there first and then come here "

Reach there first??

She stays in hostel right??

Was she out yesterday night??

I saw Sanskar walking towards us.

He smiled at Ragini first and then looked at me.

Ragini went to her place to sit next to Lakshya.

Swa " where were u yesterday?? "

He frowned.

San " obviously home"

So nicely u lied to me Sanskar??

Y?? Is there no place for me in ur life??

Flashback....

Swa " hii Sujatha aunty "

S " what happened Swara u have called me so early"

Swa" actually Sanskar is not picking my call I wanted to ask notes so can u hand him the phone "

I just wanted to know whether he is safe because he behaved weirdly yesterday.

S " but he is not at home,yesterday whole night he was not here I thought ur friend circle are doing party "

I gulped hearing her.

He used to say each and everything to me then why he is suddenly maintaining distance from me that too after proposing me.

Ragini was late to reach hostel then where she was?? even Sanskar has not gone to home. Did they go on a date?? Was mom right?? Or am I
overthinking??
