Introducing

Neerav Rana

Saksham Rana

Decided to go with two Vishals...
Both were newcomers when I watched sns and Veera..
Loved them ..

****

The shrill sound of the alarm penetrated the haze of sleep ..as Abir stretched out in response....

A sweet smell tickled his nose as her turned to lay on his back ...

Honey....he smiled....nuzzled on to the source of the smell...and then that smile froze on his face....!!!

The alarm continued it's ringing and someone knocked at his door...!

Abir looked frantically at Mishti who was sleeping peacefully through the alarm...

" Bhai ..aap utha nahin Hein Kya...?? Alarm toh baje jaa rahe hein...?!!"

Kunal's voice from the other side of the door shook Abir out of his frozen state...

He sat up straight upsetting Mishti who squinted at him....half asleep...

" Kya Hein..sone do na Abiii...."

Her eyes widened instantly and was about to let out a panicky shreik....as Abir clamped her mouth shaking his head..

The knock on the door continued..and at Kunal's voice Mishti turned to the door...her eyes now blinking fast in panic...

" Get up to the loft fast and don't make any noise okay..."

Abir instructed her softly as she nodded...and looked at his palm still on her mouth...

Abir was drinking in the morning disheveled and utterly sexy look of his girl...

As Mishti tried to speak ...he shook his head as if to shake off his madness... and hastily pressed his lips onto her forehead before letting her go...

When he opened the door after shutting down the alarm...

Kunal was standing at his door... impatiently...

He faked a yawn trying to curb his erratic heart beats.. and raised his chin at Kunal in question...

Kunal was in his own tension..

He lightly pushed Abir in and sat on the bed... clearly troubled and irritated..

" Bhai...I couldn't sleep at all last night...woh..Kuhu...Kuhu aaj jaa rahi Hein...??!..I mean..hamesha keliye..??!..I know she is totally happy to meet her Papa and Mumma.....and she should be .... Even I am.. happy seeing her smiling face...but...I can't take in that she is going away....!"

Abir...stood silently..

Listening and letting his Nanko vent out his frustration..

Kunal looked at the bed ..and Abir's heartbeat quickened seeing Mishti''s specs on the side table..

" Aur aap maze se so rahe the!..that too through the alarm..! Mera toh do do shikayath Hein... Mishti bhi saath jaayegi na...ab mujhe kuch samajh mein nahi aa Raha ki mein Kya karoo..."

Abir sat beside him... diverting his view..

" Relax Nanko...Kuhu ke parents us se Milne keliye aur uski saath time spend karne keliye aaye Hein... They are not taking her anywhere...you relax and let her be happy...aur mujhe Kuhu aur tumhare bare mein tumse baat karna Hein...lekin abhi nahi..abhi mujhe fresh hone de ... office jaana hein..."

Kunal's phone buzzed and he flipped it to see Kuhu's message... Abir smiled and continued..

"aur tujhe jogging.....Chalo...out..!"

Abir closed the door after Kunal and exhaled...then whistled lightly...

Mishti appeared on top of the loft stairs...and alighted the stairs in a jiffy..

" Abiir...Sab uth Gaye honge...oh God..agar kisine mujhe aise ...tumhare kamre mein dekh liya toh..."

She indicated her flimsy nightdress...

Abir was leaning on to the door ...kinda enjoying her nervousness with a smile... toying with her specs...

" Aur tumhein hasi aa Raha Hein...hato...mujhe jaane do.. OMG... please help.. don't let anyone see me.."

She pushed Abir lightly from the door and he hugged her tight from the back... burying his nose into her hair...and then turned her to put the specs in place...

" Meri sherni ko dar lag rahi Hein Kya...! Agar koi dekh liya toh sabko formally batane ka kaam ho jaayega na...phir..."

His lips moved along her cheek...

Mishti pushed him a bit hard now...

" Phir mujhe UK mein aake mil Lena... Shourya uncle will get me away from you in a snap..."

Abir's face sombered..

" Yeah it did nag me yesterday that he was kinda aloof with me...I had thought from your talk that he was a friendly person...and he was warm towards Kunal and Nihaal...but don't know why...a bit icy towards me..."

Mishti looked at him frowning..

" Shourya uncle ko tumse Kya problem ho saktha Hein..May be it's just your imagination... .haan..ab koi humein yahaan ..aise... dekhlenge toh pakka problem ho jaayega... please help kardo na...tum dekho na... koi door ke baahar ya corridor mein Hein ki nahin.."

Abir nodded and put his head out through the slight opening..

The corridor was deserted and he got Mishti out...

She hid herself behind his tall frame...as he walked awkwardly to her room.. sheilding her from anyone who might see her....

Mishti had her hands fisted on his T Shirt and her eyes pinched shut as she inched towards her room.. mumbling to God ...

Abir stopped and Mishti still clutched him...

" Mishti...tumhari room...!"

He said in hushed tone..

Mishti raised her head and squinted to see that she was at her door...and quickly darted inside closing the door on his face....

Abir was miffed at her ditching him so soon as he stood in front of the closed door .

" Abiiir...?!"

Abir stilled as Parul called him from behind...his heart stopping a second ...fearing being caught..!

" Mein woh...woh.."

Abir searched frantically for an excuse for being at Mishti''s door this early in the morning...

Parul smiled.

" Acha laga tumhein uski parvah Karthe hue dekhkar.... Tum donon keliye adrak wali chai layi Hoon... Mishti ko Paris mein jetlag ki pareshani Hui hogi na...tumhi khayal rakha hoga.."

Abir slowly exhaled and moved away from the door, nodding carefully..

" Ab aap aagayi heina.Massi..aap hi use sambhaliyega...I'll freshen up and come.."

Parul nodded and knocked the door...

Mishti had pulled the comforter up to her ears trying to stifle her laughter at Abir's precarious state...

At repeated knocks she got up and opened the door..

Parul entered and Abir peeked inside after her ... rolling his eyes at her...

And through out Parul's concerned talk about her health she faked her yawn and her eyes twinkled in mirth as they locked with Abir's...who made faces at her...

" Umm..Abir... Tum.... Good morning..sir..!"

Mishti quipped and Parul turned to the door..

" Tum fresh hone wale the na Abir...Jaldi jao... Shourya aur Varsha , Ananya aur Neerav ke saath Arti mein shamil hone aa rahe Hein...phir breakfast ke baad Naye Ghar mein Mishti aur Kuhu ke saath jaayenge...Bauji ne subah subah Shourya ko phone karke invite Kiya Hein...ab jaldi Karo...they'll be here in an hour..."

"Kya..!!"

" Sab aa rahe Hein!!?"

Abir and Mishti exclaimed simultaneously and hurried to get freshen up..

****

Nanu was in deep thought...

Meenakshi haven't spoke to him yet about how he instantly approved for Nihaal and Ketki's rishtha..

Moreover...

He was aware of some Undercurrents that passed between Meenakshi and Shourya...the tight-lipped way they interacted and the warnings they exchanged through eye contacts as the Maheshwari's made their exit late night after dinner...

It was as if Meenu became more reserved after meeting with Shourya....just as years back when he had come to meet her... amidst all the controversies...

She never opened up about that night to him...

Meenakshi made her way to the mandir... checking the arrangements..and Nanu beckoned her..

" Meenu...aao baitho mere paas... Mishti ne sahi kaam Kiya..na... Rajshri ki Mann ka bhoj ab halka hua hi hoga....ab tum bhi use bojh samajhna chod do..."

Meenakshi was silent and replied with deliberation...

" Mishti kabhi bojh nahin tha bapuji...woh Meri zimmedari Hein...aur Kuhu bhi....haan mein thodi naaraz tha aapse...lekin jab Socha toh ..Jo aapne Kiya bohot sahi Kiya... Kethu ko Nihaal pasand hein yeh baat mein nahi jaan paayi..."

" Tum Khush ho na ...Sab acha hi ho Raha Hein...phir yeh ..chehre pe baarah kyun Baji Hein..."

Nanu probed and Meenakshii evaded the question..

" Mein Khush Hoon..aap Meri chintha mat kijiye...waise aapka sujhaav acha Hein.. Naye Ghar mein jaane see pehle Bhagwan ka aashirwad Lena bohot saroo che..."

Nanu nodded contently as Parul joined them..

"Meine Mishti se keys li Hein aur Sam cleaners ko bhej diya hein...aur agar Mishti ko Kunal ya Abir pehle Ghar le jaaye toh woh baaki arrangements poori karlegi...Meine use Sab samjha Diya Hein.."

" Theek Hein..mein Abir se keh deta Hoon.."

Nanu said unabashedly.. knowing full well Abir would appreciate his help..

OOTD
Abir& Mishti

By the time all members were down for Arti Shourya and Varsha arrived followed by Ananya and Neerav.

Abir went to receive them in and once again Shourya kinda reciprocated to his warm welcome with his icy stare while all others faces were epitome of happiness...

Nanu heartily welcomed them to Arti and after the melodious prayer Abir blew the conch invoking the blessings of divine powers...

Meenakshi's eyes flew to Shourya's which held a shock and her face showed a resignation... completely understanding Shourya's reaction..

Nanu solemnised the kalash to be taken to the new home for grihapravesh... and Mishti took the Diya and Prasad to everyone...

Neerav and Ananya were verymuch impressed by the love and care they received from Rajvansh's .

Nanu looked at Mishti...

" Beta tum Abir ke saath jao aur baaki kaam bhi kardena Ghar ko sajaane ki...hum kalash leke aajayenge..Parul woh cheezein Mishti ko de Dena...thoda decoration toh banta Hein na...."

Mishti looked at Abir hesitatingly...and Abir ...nodded ... trying not to look so eager..

" Yes Nanu... we'll leave now itself... breakfast grihapravesh ke baad karlenge..okay Mishti..?"

Mishti nodded smilingly and ran off to take her Phone...

" Mera phone bhi le aana please..."

Abir called out and she raised her hand acknowledging his request..as she took to the stairs..

Shourya was about to refute the arrangement but seeing Ananya and Neerav's smiling faces at Abir he stopped and cast an enquiring glance at Meenakshi..

" Mishti is working as Abir's PA ...so he tends to order her around..."

Nanu intercepted Shourya's look to Meenakshi... now understanding Shourya's wariness...and made a joke of the situation...

He now knew that If it was not for Rajshri .. Shourya would have taken the girls with him at the earliest...He would never want to deal with a Rajvansh in any way..

But they too had their share of tragedies...and now at last a ray of hope for healing the past and sealing a new relationship has come in the form of Abir and Mishti's love for each other....

And he would do everything he can to cement that bond...

Abir went to the key stand and took a key...

Kunal looked at him in wonder...

" Bhai ..aap mere bike le rahe ho..?"

Abir shrugged." Haan...pas hi tho jaa rahe Hein.. besides you guys will need two cars and parking will be difficult in that lane.. this would be the best option na.."

" Okay haan woh toh Hein.....I didn't think that...lekin Mishti ko sambhaliyega...woh jitna paani see darthi Hein utna Hawa see Pyaar Karthi Hein...make her sit tight .."

Abir looked amused at Kunal's suggestion and as the family members moved to the dining room he walked outside.. calling out to Kunal..

" Tell Mishti I will be out side.."

***

Mishti was thrilled to see Abir on Kunal's bike...but turned apprehensive ...

" Abiir...aise ...sabke saamne...kisi ko shak ho Gaya toh..?"

" If you don't sit your Shourya uncle will definitely suspect...I am sure he is watching us with that sharp eyes under his specs..."

Mishti climbed up on the bike real fast at his mock threat...

" I think humein Ghar mein sabko batana chahiye.."

Mishti said as he raced the bike out of Rajvansh's...

Abir was silent .....thinking of Shourya's irrational coldness towards him....

" Abhi nahin Mishti..Ananya ki Shaadi ke baad hum sabko bataenge...chupchup ke Pyaar karne mein bhi ek maza Hein na..."

" Aaj toh pakde hi jaate..."

Mishti smiled shyily... ..

"Waise tum Shourya uncle se thoda darne lage ho...aur darna bhi chahiye...woh Mera Papa nahin Hein .but he is the closest thing I have as a father figure..."

" Haan I know...isliye unhein thoda time de Raha hoon...to get to know how awesome I am ..you know...!."

He said putting on an attitude and looked at the way Mishti was sitting.. away from him.

"..Ab Tum itne door kyun baithe ho...theek see .pakdo na..hold me tight..."

He swayed the bike a bit and Mishti grabbed him tight....

***

After a short joyful ride Abir stopped in front of the home....

The cleaners were on their way out and Mishti appreciated their work in short notice..

Parul had given her a backpack with necessary decorating details for the front door...and had asked her to find out an East facing position to place the kalash....

Abir smiled at Mishti and looked around mischeviously..

Mishti got the mirth in his look and warned him...

" Abir...kaam karne do na...no shararath haan..?! Find an east facing place and check if we can place the kalash... I'll do the Rangoli by then...Chalo..."

"Okay...if you don't want to take advantage of a hot dashing hunk like me ..then it's your loss.."

Abir said with a shrug and an attitude to which Mishti replied by putting her tongue out teasingly...

" Ab Chalo..Sab aate hi honge...lemme finish this fast ...the door needs special decoration too.."

Mishti was halfway through the Rangoli design that she felt his eyes on her.. sending goosebumps all through her...

" Tum aise mat dekho Abir...mujhe woh...kuch nahi.."

Abir's smile widened as he probed ..

" Kaise mat dekhoo...aur... tumhein...Kya?"

His question with his twinkling eyes made her blush...and he laughed..

Mishti lowered her face and brushed away her hair.. fallen on her cheek.... accidentally streaking a smear of pink on her cheek...

Abir's eyes widened as he saw that and just as he was about to go near her Mishti stopped him.

" Nahi Abiir...let me finish this fast...Nanu Sab ko leke abhi aajayenge..."

Abir stopped ...his fingers fisting at the loss of a lovely chance to tease her...

The Rangoli finished and Abir looked at a beaming Mishti in appreciation..

" I never knew you were traditional sort of girl...but of course Massima would have taught you all this na?"

Mishti nodded as she got up..

" Ultra traditional toh mein nahin Hoon...but she always told us to be in touch with our tradition..ab darwaze keliye hmmm..."

Mishti took out the Garland to be placed on the door frame...and looked at Abir...

" Yeh laga do na... please..."

Abir tried but the frame was missed by an inch..

" Tum yeh pakdo..."

He put the Garland around her neck and gave her the pins..

Mishti looked at him and then her hands in confusion...but in the next second she was in the air...

"Abiir..yeh Kya Kar rahe ho..!!!??"

" Tumhari help Kar Raha Hoon..! Aur Kya.??..Ab jaldi pins lagalo aur woh phool bhi....mein bohot der tumhein utha nahin saktha...Moti Mishti.."

Mishti deftly did as he said ...as Abir inhaled her .. nuzzling his face on to her bosom..

" Ho Gaya.. Abiir...!! .ab mujhe utaaro... tumhein toh waise bhi mujhe bohot der uthane se problem hein na..!!??"

Abir rubbed his nose at her stomach.. tickling her in response to her taunt and walked inside the house adjusting her on his shoulders..as she protested.....

" Abiir Abiir..chodo na..."

He dropped her slowly along him...and their eyes locked...her lashes fluttering in a mixture of panic and shyness..

And as her face came to his level....he kissed her softly...till she stood on her feet . Then cupping her face he smoothly rubbed away the smear of color from her Cheek ...

" Ab theek Hein..! Perfect!"

Mishti opened her eyes...her dark orbs shimmering with the trust and love she had for him as he engulfed her in his tight embrace..

The sound of Tyre grating on the gravel was a jolt to them as both let go of each other in alarm.. ...

" OMG.. Sab aagaye...!!"

" Ab Chalo ..unka swagath toh karna heina.."

Abir said as Mishti hurriedly checked out her appearence..

***

Rajshri's happiness knew no bounds as she viewed the quite and aesthetic home...and as the families walked to the home Rajshri held Meenakshi's hand..

" Mujhe apne parivar se aur Dil see lagane keliye tumhein jitna shukriya Ada karoo woh kam hein...phir bhi..."

Meenakshi stopped her.. with a pained expression..

"Aapko Khush dekhkar mujhe Jo Khushi mil rahi Hein uska Kya..."

Shourya's face tightened a bit hearing this exchange and Meenakshi's look to him was imploring...at the best..

Abir and Mishti rushed to the door and as she was about to step out in a hurry Abir pulled her short...

Preventing her from stepping on to the Rangoli she made .

Ananya let out a low whistle as Abir and Mishti walked out ...and elbowed Neerav.. whispering to him..

" Wow.....he is your friend na....ladka Kaisa Hein.??"

Neerav looked at Abir's formal face and shook his head...

" He was a tough nut then...ambitious and straight forward... even ruthless...let me spend sometime with him... I'll give you a whole report...par kyun..??.. something cooking in your lovely brain huh!!?"

Ananya elbowed him again to shut him up as she found Shourya listening to them...

Kunal and Kuhu helped Rajshri scale the steps and Kethu brought forward the kalash which she gave to Kuhu...

" Ab kalash leke Ander jao beta..aur Mishti dikhaengi ki kahaan rakhna hein.."

Nanu instructed..

" Nanu ..it would be better na if Mumma does this rasm..!!"

Kuhu asked sweetly...

Varsha looked at Shourya and he nodded..

Among Happy hearts Varsha entered the home and Mishti followed her immediately to show her the place..

Abir backed out from the group and signalled Parul that he is going to office..and she nodded understandingly...and he walked out before she was about to say something...

As he was about to get on the bike someone called out and Abir turned to look..

Neerav jogged up to him...

" Well ..were you going to ditch me today also among these endearing folks..??! .Take me with you...I would like to see your famous RGC...and yeah I looked up ..."

Abir smiled resignedly..

" I wasn't avoiding you...and I am honored to show you around RGC..just didn't want to rehash any unpleasantness in your happy moments.."

" Aah ..that..! Rehash we must...! But first things first...give me a ride with you.."

Neerav too mounted the bike .

" Ananya..?!"

To Abir's question Neerav smiled...

" It's her time to bond with her family...and I already know Mishti... though she never told me about you...I would have made the connection much earlier if she had given me a hint...but we didn't speak much in months..she was conspiring with Ananya most of the time..."

Abir listened silently with a smile thinking of his ' lovely scheming witch'!

How well she planned things...

So this was the reason she was pestering him for the sale of Greenville apartment...so that one day Ananya could bring Kuhu's parents to her ...

And her insistence to keep the house in Kuhu's name...he hadn't thought all her plans were possible when she narrated her plotting...

But here now he was witnessing it...

Abir turned to Rajvansh mansion.

Neerav followed him to the hall..

" Let me change and we can be off in ten minutes..!"

"No hurry Abir...you didn't have breakfast na...have some .then we'll leave.."

Neerav reminded Abir and Abir remembered that Mishti didn't have breakfast either..

He called out for Sam..

" Do prepare a break fast basket... I'll take it to the home.. the way to office."

Sam replied with a smile..

" Parul mam had already taken one with her .. for both of you ."

Abir looked at him and his smile...a blush creeping up his ears ... realising that Sam was aware of what is going on behind the doors...

" Uhh.. okay..then I'll come in a minute..do take care of our guest.."

Neerav observed him as Abir sprinted the stairs... noting the concern he had for Mishti...

Well ...! Ananya's intutions were all spot on in the past ..he had caught on to her interest in Abir ...and now correctly pegged it to Mishti...

And he had promised her a full on report..!

Neerav smiled in expectation...

***

RGC tour took more than an hour and in the first 10 minutes itself Neerav was beyond impressed..

Mark gave him a run down of other enterprises... when Abir went to attend a videoconference.

And when he was back Abir found Neerav seated along with Mark in his chamber.

Mark left them and Neerav congratulated Abir for his achievements..

" If I had been still in the family business I would be considering you a worthy rival..."

Abir wanted to know why Neerav quit the family business..

" I was surprised to know that you are an investment banker that too in London..."

Neerav smiled..

" Well it had to do it for Saksham's sake... after Dad's death many conflicts were happening and since he didn't have the will to start afresh on something..i had to..and I am glad I did and met Ananya...she is my partner in life and profession."

Abir nodded absently....his mind stuck at Saksham's name..

" I met him a day ago.. at Paris.."

Abir's tone was dry ..and Neerav winced..

" Oh..so your coldness towards me was due to him huh..well after that time I had a talk with him.He may come out as a callous self serving person but I think he genuinely had feelings for that girl...and though he acted tough he would never have done what that girl alleged."

" Neerav..are you implying that my friend lied to me and her brother about your brother molesting her..??!"

Abir's tone was sharp and Neerav raised his arms..

" No ..but I want to say that there is more to it than what meets the eye...may be he misjudged her..or you got an embellished version.. because Saksham is still single and to my knowledge he haven't dated anyone in these years...and that doesn't add up with the way he was portrayed in her allegation.."

Abir was now confused..he was always quick to rage whenever he met with Saksham all these years and Saksham had kept his distance from him too..

And in all the occasions he was alone..!

Sometimes Piya would be with him and her panicky response in seeing Saksham was evident too...!

Abir shook his head ..not able to solve the tangle..

Neerav looked on.

" I hope my brothers actions would not shadow our relationship anymore Abir.. Ananya doesn't know this past and she is a good guide to Saksham now. Setting bhabhi devar goals..you know.."

Abir nodded understandingly..

" As long as he behaves I have no problem with you Neerav..or with him..may be it's time for me to condition myself to his presence ."

Neerav's eyes widened at Abir's inadverdant admission to his continuing relationship with him...

****

Kuhu along with Kethu was grilling Ananya about how she met with Neerav..how long they dated ..who proposed whom...and how did they present their relationship in front of parents...as Mishti joined them..

" Ohoho girls ... what's the rush..! Itne utaavle kyun ho rahe ho...."

Ananya teased and Kuhu toned down her enthusiasm a bit...

" Rush ..Kaisa rush...aap aaraam se batao hum sunnlenge..."

Varsha was narrating to Rajshri and Parul how she struggled acclimating to London and how Shourya worked hard to establish the publishing house they own now...

Shourya spotted Meenakshi walking to them and called out..His face serious..

" Can we have a talk...and it's urgent."

Meenakshi nodded and walked out followed by Shourya...away from others..

Nanu's eyes followed them as they passed the hall...

" So tell me what's so urgent...I thought you would want to keep the past buried...but.."

Shourya cut in Meenakshi's evasive rant...

" He is out..!"

Blood drained from Meenakshi's face at the shock the seemingly simple words brought on her .... making her stagger a bit...

Her hands sought support of the blossom tree..

And Shourya looked at her Ashen face with empathy...

" I got the info from a friend in India..."

Meenakshi was trying to recover from the blunt hit delivered by Shourya..

He was out of the jail...

Mehul Kapadiya..!!

" I know he can't touch us now...but even after all these years the way he mentally tortured me keeps me awake in nights.."

Shourya's voice seemed to come for a very far away place as Meenakshii was transported to another time of her life....

When she was a caring daughter, loving wife and a happy mother of a teenager...

And how everything changed overnight ...

With in an eye blink she lost her entire identity and personality and had to adopt a new identity and personality..

Crusted on with bitterness... and her core seeking justice..

Meenakshi revisited the night Vishambar was in hospital and Mehul was portraying himself as the saviour...

All along planning to get sole control on the joint family business..?!!

****

Shourya had come to meet her ... secretly...

Meenakshi was wondering why Shourya would want to meet her ...

And that day the mask that covered Mehul's ugly face was torn off...

Shourya was in tears when he explained how he was blackmailed by Mehul all these years with his compromising pictures with Vrinda.. his secretary..

Mehul had arranged a party and.he was made to drink that night and Vrinda was acting at Mehul's direction...

He never knew for years he had a child with Vrinda as a result of that night...

Mehul.. kept her as his secretary....to continue his blackmail....but when she became demanding he threw her out..

Vrinda then committed suicide leaving Kuhu at his doorstep... being abandoned by her family and then by Mehul...and she knew very well that Mehul will kill her if she approached Shourya.. exposing him...

Shourya also told her how Mehul did manipulations and crimes to establish himself in the business owned by Nanu and Vishambar.. things he learned when Mehul bosted about himself and warned him citing examples...

Meenakshi was shocked to learn the extent of criminal mentality of her husband..

The damage he inflicted on the very fabric of relationships which she was proud of...

That he would stoop to any low to achieve his desire... even trying to kidnap a kid...!

Next day her own investigation at the office proved all allegations of Shourya true to the words...

The money seized from the car was embezzled by Mehul...and he had planned to kill Vishambar and take the money... pinning the blame on Vishambar and emerging as white Knight...

She consulted her lawyer , a lodged complaint against Mehul with evidence and moved several cases against him..the multiple manslaughter , divorce, and sole custody of Abir...

All in a swift and secretive way that everyone thought Mehul was absconding.

Mehul didn't expect Meenakshi to learn the truth overnight and confront him...

And armed with all necessary evidences as she now knew where to look ,...she unleashed a full on assault on him.

He was bound by the forces of law ....

Sentenced for 14 yrs of imprisonment....

**

" But it's not yet completed..."

Meenakshi's quivering question was met with a sigh...

" He had gotten into their good books...the way he fooled us especially you ...as an ideal man with his Pooja paath...."

Shourya's face shadowed...

" And I got a shock when I saw Abir yesterday...and today at Arti ...Sorry to say...but your son is a spitting image of that scounderal who one handedly ruined several families..same height, same poise.. everything...

And I heard Neerav describing him as ambitious and ruthless ..just now....I hope he haven't started ruining lives to achieve his ambitions..."

Meenakshi's eyes clouded at the allusion but before she could reply Parul called to her..

***

Shourya stood alone outside...

He had given Meenakshi a false reassurance that Mehul can't touch them...

He was a man who lost everything...

and a criminal Mastermind..

He won't rest until he find out who betrayed him and he will come after them...

They should be vigilant... because..

His modus operandi was backstabbing..
