Ishaan POV

"I need these files completed by tomorrow." I said handing the file to my Pa.

He nodded his head and left from there. I opened my laptop and looked at the pictures of our latest project of india Shimla.

"Sometimes give a bit rest to your laptop also." I heard his voice but didn't paid attention,

"Laptops are made for working and if it's fails to accompany with us then it's useless." I replied back.

He means my Friend or more my brother and guardian angel. Nick Gray , he is the Italian businessman and if people call walking death then he is Lucifer himself.

"We got a news , regarding him." He said and immediately I froze.

"Please save me Ishaan,."

"I am scared Ishaan please take me from here."

I closed my eyes to shut those painful words of her which still ring in my ears.

"What is it." I asked him calmly.

"There is a news that some of his man's are spotted in Shimla, why we don't know yet but are team is searching for them." He said and I fisted my hand,

10 years , it's been ten years but still I couldn't find that person who plugged my heart out from me. Sometimes it feels pathetic, people call me walking death but still I couldn't find one person,

But one thing is for sure I will find him and that to soon no matter in which hole of Earth he is hiding himself.

"Tell Jack to make the arrangements of flying,." I said shutting my laptop.

He smriked." I know you will tell this that's why I already told him by the way where will you go first Delhi or Shimla." He asked.

"First Delhi because i have to be there before tomorrow and then to Shimla." I said standing up.

He nodded." Okay now you are coming with me, for celebration of my 5th breakup of this month." He said cheekily,

I narrowed my eyes at him then shook my head." When will you take everything seriously, and I am not coming with you to those shitty place." I asked him

If someday there be a award for best Playboy of the year, Nick will make a history of it. His celebration always include some stripper club which I don't like a bit.

He grinned." Never , and don't be a spoil sport I come here from italy with 9 hours of journey to hear your rejection not happening." He stated.

I rolled my eyes but my mind was struck on that thought.

After I landed on India I straight went to my mansion. As I stepped in memories of everything started heating me one by one.

Mom and dad's bantering, mom tantrums, my and dad overprotectiveness for her.

I looked at the dining I can still see mom and I sitting on the dining cheering for dad as he walked with our breakfast.

I looked at the other side of the big corridor, a little boy was running his father was trying to catch him , the happiness filled laugh of the little boy is echoing everywhere.

I blinking my eyes and everything was gone , the dining was empty. The long corridor was now hallow. The happiness filled innocent laugh of the little boy is now turned into death silence.

Because the little boy innocence is killed, they killed him slowly and painfully and now standing in front is the not that innocence little boy nor the helpless teenager. Now the person standing here is death himself ,

"Remember one thing always Ishaan , whatever God do to us there always reason , if he gives you pain then also he will give you happiness more than you can imagine, he filled my life with darkness but then he also give me your mother as a blessed."

You were wrong dad , you were Soo wrong, he only know how to give pain , he just create some illusion around us Soo when they will break it , it will hurt ten times more painfully.

If he wanted to give me happiness then he wouldn't have snatched her after snatching you all from me.

I stopped all the emotion which were running through me , and went to get freshen up , no one will say I visit this mansion once in a whole year, I didn't changed anything it was just the way we left it that day twenty three years ago.

I want to my study and busied myself in work.

I stopped typing and looked at the clock it was five in the morning. I want to my dad's person gym

"Ishaan when you will grow up we both will do workout daily together"

I just hope after ending all this I can finally come to you guys can spend time with you all.

The fire if revenge is the only thing which has kept me alive.

After heavy workouts of six hours I took a shower and changed into something casual. I went downstairs and made breakfast for myself. I never hired any mate I like to do my work on my own, just because I am billionaire businessman doesn't mean that I have to show off, my father was most dangerous and rich man of India, but still I was not born with gold spoon my life was filled with more struggle then a normal middle class family..

After having breakfast I went to my room and changed into my business attire as I was climbing down the stairs when suddenly I was engulfed in a tight hug,

"Shannnnn bhaiiiiiiiiiiiii." She screamed loudly jumping still hugging me,

I lovingly ruffled her hair and she slapped my hand , breaking the hug ," don't spoil my hair, isn't Rey Bhai enough." She said with a pout.

"It's right to irritate you Ayesha." I looked up to see Reyansh entering with a smile on his face.

He looked at me and raised a eyebrows." Ishaan we are not going in any business meeting you remember right." He told me sarcastically.

I rolled my eyes while Ayesha giggled." Shut your nonsense and did you brought everything which I told you to." I asked him side hugging Ayesha.

He nodded." Yes , maa's favorite flower done , dad uncle favorite watches done, but I m not able to decide which flower should we buy for her." He said.

"Pink roses you know Zoya di loved pink color Soo much and it also represent happiness," Ayesha said and Reyansh and I smiled at her

"Okay I m going home you and Bhai go I won't disturb you to but Ishaan Bhai remember to meet mom once before you leave she is way to angry at you." Ayesha told me in a voice and I nodded my head.

"Ayu tell mom that we might get late okay, Carlos would drop you to home." Reyansh said and Ayesha nodded, she hugged me and Rey once then left with Carlos.

"Soo what's the news." Rey asked as we proceed towards my car collection.

"Nick said he got a news that few of his man's were spotted in shimla, I will leave for shimla tomorrow early morning." I told him as we sat inside the car and he started driving.

"Shall I come with you." He asked.

I shook my head, It can be risky and I don't want to involve him , he maybe my soul brother but now he has family which includes Ayesha, aunty and uncle unlike me, if something happens to me then it won't be a big matter.

"You stay here with everyone, aunty uncle and Ayesha is here what if it's a trap and specially you know he didn't returned yet and it added to our worry because we don't have any idea about his location, and I m sure he is planning something big." I told Reyansh who nodded.

"How is Nick it's been long since I meet him." Reyansh asked.

I shook my head thinking about that playboy." Like always, not all serious about anything." I said with a scoff and Reyansh laughed.

"What about Vihaan." I asked the last time we both meet during our meeting,

"Busy with his girlfriend." He said and I sighed.

"When will he understands that what he feels for is nothing but attraction." I told him , that guy is one stubborn dude , I m sure he is going to have a difficult time because of this.

We soon arrived at the park which was filled with beautiful trees and flowers , it was our personal property, our mean my and Rey, we brought this from the early days when were just a newbie in business world, Rakesh uncle means Reyansh father and mentor means Nick father helped as a lot.

We both got out of the car with the gifts and entered inside and directly went to big cherry blossoms tree. Reyansh and I both planted it together

We both kneeled down in front of the tree, this place is precious to us , we had buried our parents last belongings here including hers,

" Hey Mom , hey Dad , hey baby sister, Zoya how are you all I rarely visit you all these days." I said with a smile caressing soil, in which was buried the most precious thing of us.

" But tell me one thing doesn't this guy visit you , I mean it' just few distance away from his penthouse where I have to travel from New York to India." I asked.

Rey glared at me but I could see the glassiness in his eyes." Don't you dare put all the blame on me , Maa very well knows how busy I m from few days." He said ,

Reyansh was the son of my father first in command and we both grow together as brothers, he had lost his mother on the time of his birth and from then he used to call my mom as his mother, but destiny always has been cruel to us but now Ambika aunty is there for him.

"Anyway we have brought gifts for you." I said taking out bouquet of flowers for mom from my back and keeping it in root of the tree.

"This is for you dad , and papa." He said placing the watches on the tree.

I took out a teddy from my back." And this for you baby sister." I said placing it for my sister.

"Ahem maa ,papa dad I think the two lovers need some time for themselves we will talk some other time let's give them some privacy." Reyansh said teasing clearing his throat, he kissed the tree and walked away from there.

Bastard i thought .

I ltook out the pink roses from my back and sat there leaning on the tree." Hey Zoyu see today I have brought pink flowers, Ayesha said that you would love it,." I told her caressing the soft petals.

"Tomorrow I m going to shimla, after Soo many years I have got a ray of hope and I can't let it go , my only reason of living is taking revenge for you , mom dad and uncle revenge is already done but it to cost me a friendship, I still remember that how much you wanted to go to shimla but we couldn't." I breath heavily to control my emotion ,

No ishaan don't let your self lose control I thought taking a shaky breath.

"Happy birthday love ,may in next birth you get someone who can protect you unlike me." I said resting my head on the tree .

It's difficult love , way to difficult first mom dad my baby sister and then you I thought as I let a drop of tear to slide down my eyes.
