Oberoi mansion

A man is sitting in a room that is filled with pictures of his beloved wife whom he missed every second and he was none other than shivaay. He was dying in the guilt of losing annika all by himself thanks to his stupid drama.

Shivaay's pov
In these 3 months there isn't even a second in which I didn't remember u annika..not only me but this whole oberoi mansion..
Ur smile...ur antics...ur ajeeb language...I miss them all...since the day mom told me the truth I have been looking for u  but u have vanished like anything....for the first time the great shivaay singh oberoi is helpless. But I don't know why I feel like we will meet....

At that time the flight landed and advay and annika stepped into the airport.

Both shivaay and anika's heart started beating as each of them could feel their presence

Its almost 2 hrs since they have arrived.

Advay: ani get ready

Annika: why bhai?

Advay: we r going to office

Annika: now???

Advay: yes we r going to sign a deal with the most famous and rich business house here and since u r the member of board u have to be there...also I want to finish my work today itself so that the rest of the week I can spend it with my ani

Annika got tear eyed by getting this kind of affection.

Annika: ok bhai..he hugged her

In oberoi office

Mishra: sir the famous singhania's will be here in 15 mins.i got a confirmation call from their secretary

Shivaay: great!! Who else is coming with mr. Singhania?

Mishra: sir his sister ANNIKA

listening to this name shivaay stood rooted to his place while mishra kept on telling about how he is so protective about his sister and that his sister is so talented.

Mishra: sir...sir...they r here lets move

He shaked shivaay a bit

Shivaay: haan mishra chalo

Since he was lost in his thoughts he didn't listen that annika is advay's sister.

Shivaay: finally annika...now see I wud lock u up.

He walked really fast.

Advay and annika were in conference room.
Annika was zoned out when she came to know that the deal was with sso but couldn't express her disagreement as she didn't want advay to feel hurt.

Shivaay entered and met the most drowning eyes and on the other hand she met the most colourful eyes...both were lost in each other.

Advay(forwarding his hand) mr. Shivaay singh oberoi...this is Advay singhania

Shivaay came out their eyelock
And shaked hand

Shivaay: pleasure meeting u mr. Singhania...I was waiting for this meet desperately( while eyeing annika)

Advay: same here mr. Oberoi..so lets proceed.

Shivaay: oh pls call me shivaay..don't be so formal

Advay: that's so sweet of u and u can call me advay. By the way she is annika my love

Land slipped beneath shivaay.
Tears were forming in his eyes.

Shivaay: she is ur girlfriend?

Advay while putting his hand on her waist ( Shivaay's blood boiled and his fingers became a fist)
She is my sister shivaay

Shivaay felt a sense of relief and he gave the biggest smile to advay and then to annika.

Advay's pov
Something is fishy..the way shivaay and ani were looking at each other and the broken voice of shivaay when he asked me about annika being my gf and the sudden rage of him when I kept my hands on her. Annika's eyes also depict the same emotions. I have to find out.

Advay: shivaay I have a call to make. I will be back.

Shivaay mentally thanked the stars for this coincidence.

Shivaay: sure advay

As soon as advay exited he ran to annika and gave her a tight hug.
Annika wanted to respond but her hands felt numb. Flashes of the past haunted her. He came out of the hug when he realised that she isn't responding.

Shivaay: annika I know u r angry on me and its completely justified...I did wrong...I did hurt u but trust me I never wanted to.
It was all a drama annika. I know bua showed u that fake marriage and also said that I demanded evidence against my family first but no annika it was all a big lie.i demanded the suicide note first..which was the evidence against ur father... I chose u annika over my family. But bua double crossed us and created a ruckus and also made me believe that u gave those evidences to the police by showing the cctv footage....on top of that mom had an accident and she sunk into coma...I was broken annika.i was so stupid that I blamed it all on u but now I hv got to know the truth...I promise mai sab thik kar dunga!!!

Annika listened to his words with utter shock and disappointment.

Annika: mr. Oberoi how is ur mom?

Shivaay got really hurt by her behaviour

Shivaay: mom is fine...but annika why r u being so formal? M ur shivaay.

Annika: we r here for a deal and I believe in professionalism.

By that time advay entered in

Advay: hey guys sorry it took me long.
He notied Annika's expression

Advay: ani r u ok? U seem to be upset?

Annika: nah bhai...I m find..just a bit tired

Advay: if u r not well we can do this later.

Annika: no bhai m find.lets proceed.

Annika: as u wish sweetheart.

Though advay was brother to annika still sweetheart didn't go well with shivaay.

Shivaay( muttering to himself) sweetheart my foot.

Advay: did u said something?

Shivaay: no nothing

With this they continued their meeting. All the while shivaay was noticing annika...her weak body...her pale eyes which once smiled to him..he felt as if something is wrong with her.
There's an unexpressed pain  both r going through.

Precap- secret meeting and Annika's outburst.

Happy reading!!!
