Arya reached his office and went towards his cabin...And started doing his work after a while his cabin's door got opened, and he groaned as he knew who entered his cabin….Only two people can enter  his cabin without knocking or without asking permission…

"Vineet how many times I have to say enter while knocking..But no, you will always ignore it…" Arya said playfully..

"And you also know how many times you will repeat it, I'll ignore it…." Vineet replied in the same tone….Both looked at each other and started laughing…

Vineet took his seat, "Achha leave it now tell me did you get the answer??? Is it positive or negative ???" he asked tensely…

Arya paused for sometimes like he was in deep thought, he took a deep breath and look towards Vineet and said,"I got the answer and I'm really happy with it, infact more than happy….In these 5  years, I never listened to my heart...I locked the door of my heart and threw the key somewhere,which I myself don't know….And after that I came to be known as Heartless person for others except for my family and you…..I never wanted the unnecessary feelings and thoughts to come in my life and make me weak and broken, more than the past….But Aisha she is different, without doing anything,she unlocked the door of my heart and got settled, in these 4 months she made me full of compassion from a heartless person….In these 4 months whenever I met her or talk to her, she always brings out the real me, the fun side, the prankster side, everything….She understands me, like you and my family does…. And I will be really lucky to spend my future and my life with her…..I will ask her out after a few days, till then I will prepare myself to express my feelings …" He stopped after expressing his feelings to Vineet, his eyes were glittering with lots of love…

Vineet was shocked, and after a few seconds, he jumped in happiness and hugged Arya tightly, " I knew it, that only Aisha will bring the old Arya back...And see you are coming back... I'm really happy...And don't worry your decision is going to be the most amazing decision...She will make you the happiest person….." He broke the hug and patted Arya's shoulder…

"I hope so….I don't know whether she will accept me or not…" Arya said confusedly….

"Don't worry she is not gonna reject you...Btw when are you going to propose her???" Vineet teasingly asked….

"After two days,as it is Sunday, she will also be free from office work,and I will be free too…" Arya said and smiled…

"Ohho...Free from work haa,not bad (teasing him), why not today???" He asked

"She is on her month, so I don't want her to take stress and I haven't decided either how I will propose her and where I'll propose her…..By knowing her, she doesn't like expensive places...So might do something special and different…." Arya said with a calculative look….

"You can take her to the beach or some beautiful place and decorate it beautifully, and I'm 100% sure, she will love it….And I know a person , who knows some unique decorations, he helped me in the decorations, when I proposed Ruhana and she really loved it…." Vineet said…

"Okkk then, after deciding the place I will take his number and will contact him…" Arya said..

After talking a while,they got back to their work….

Whereas, Ruhana reached office, where she found that, Aisha's car was not there...She got confused,as most of the time, she reached office early…..She shrugged and went inside the office, and went towards her cabin...After settling down, through the intercom, she called her PA...After knocking at the door, she entered and gave her a file, which contains some selected designs of the interns and informed her that Aisha had also checked them….Ruhana asked her that whether, Aisha came to office or not, to which she replied that she came 1hr ago…...Ruhana dismissed her and went towards Aisha's cabin….

She opened the door and entered...And found Aisha, with her head down on her folded hands, which were on the table….

"Heyyy!!!You alright???You are looking pale.." Ruhana said worriedly, while reaching near her…

"Yeahh, I'm fine, it's just stomach cramp…" She said and sat back on her chair…

"Are you on your month???" Ruhana asked...For which Aisha simply nodded…."Then go home and take rest..  Don't take stress, and today we don't have much work…" She said again…

"Offho Ruu... I'm fine don't worry...Both brother- sister are same, worrisome…" Aisha said in a flow, then realisation dawned upon her,about what she said….She looked towards Ruhana slowly and found her already looking at her with a smirk plastered on her face….

"Ohhh my brother, ( with a teasing tone), I guess you told him about it and he started getting worried, which I'm doing now... And you ignored me, like you did to him….Very bad Aishu….You should have listened to him…." Ruhana said teasingly …

Aisha blushed furiously and said, " It's nothing like that, I was fine that's why I came to the office... Don't worry if I feel lousy and peaky, I will go home…"

"Okkk...Then I need to ask something???What is your answer???Is  it yes or no???" Ruhana asked seriously…

"Yess…(she said slowly)... The answer is yes...I never knew that, someday I will find someone, who will become my life..You know, with him, I feel safe, I feel secure, it's like that, if he is with me I can fight 1000 demons altogether….He gave me strength...No one except You and  Abhi cares about my thoughts, my feelings or me, but he did...He read me like, I am a open book...I never knew when he became the important person in my life and I will be really happy if I get a chance to spend my whole life with him... And by marrying him I will not only get an amazing husband but will get a wonderful family for which I was craving for years...This is all I want...I don't expect anything more…" Aisha said with a warm smile….

Ruhana was amazed after listening to this….She never knew that her best friend was feeling like this for her brother…. It's like he gave a new meaning to her life….She went towards Aisha and hugged her tightly, "I'm really happy for you...I knew that Bhai will be perfect for you….You both understand each other without saying a word….You both read each other eyes and know what the person want to say…. I'm really happy after listening to your answer. .."

Aisha blushed and smiled, "I just hope, he too feels like this for me…"

"Don't worry,he feels more than this for you…." Ruhana teased her…After listening to her, a red hue formed on Aisha's face….

After that,they both started doing their work...By afternoon Abhi came to take Aisha and after a lot of persuasion from Ruhana ,Aisha accepted her defeat and went home…

By evening, Ruhana and Arya reached home.. After getting freshened up, they came and sat with their family in the living room..All started chit- chatting, but the whole time Arya's mind was not there….He was constantly looking at his phone...Ruhana saw this and decided to tease him…

"What happened bhai???Are you waiting for someone's call or message????" She teasingly asked…

Arya came back from his LaLa land and he understood that Ruhana was teasing him, "Nothing like that, I'm waiting for an important call from a client, to discuss about a deal…."

"Ohhh client…. Don't worry whenever She (by dragging it) will get free,will call you…." Ruhana teased him again….

Arya got the hidden message and he smiled, "Yeah, yeah...You know everything, now go and talk to your Romeo, he must be waiting for your call….." Arya too teased her…

Ruhana started blushing and she smacked his arm, Arya laughed looking at her face, and by looking at the duo's bickering, the family started laughing….

At night after settling in the bed, Arya call Aisha...After 2 rings, she picked up,

"Heyy, how are you feeling now??Is it still paining????"

"Hiii... I'm fine don't worry….And no, it's not paining…"

"That's good….Had your Dinner????"

"Yup...Done….And you????"

"Yess,done... Actually I want to ask something….."

"Yeaa….Say, you needn't to ask permission from me…."

Arya smiled after hearing it, "Are you free after 2days???That is this Sunday????"

"Hmm,I think yess...As till now, nothing important came up….Why???Are you asking me out for a date Mr.???" Aisha teasingly asked…

"Perfect...Then be ready by 6:30pm…. I'll come and pick you up….Think something like that Miss…"

"Okkk...But where are we going????And what should I wear????"

"Hmm, it's a surprise…. I'm not gonna say anything….And wear something casual…."

"Okkk done…"

And after talking for a while, they cut the call after wishing Good Night to each other….A constant smile was there on their lips….

In a blink, two days went by...In these two days, Arya arranged everything perfectly, as he wanted to make this day memorable for both of them...He selected a beautiful place and ask the person whom Vineet, recommended to decorate it beautifully...The D-day came, both the souls were  feeling restless, waiting for the evening to arrive...As they can't wait to express their feelings for each other…

It was 5:30pm, they started getting ready, both were getting confused about what to wear, clothes were scattered, here and there...And finally after 10 minutes they got the outfit which will be perfect for their date night...Arya wore a white t shirt,with blue floral design,grey jeans with blue shade, completing the look with black blazer….

Then he went towards the drawer, where he kept his watches...He try to open it, but it was jammed...He forcefully opened it and due to the jerk some of the items fell out of it...He started arranging them, when he found a box...By looking at it his expression changed...He slowly opened it and by looking at it, he clenched his jaw, flashes started coming in front of his eyes...He threw the box with a force, the essential of the box came out,it was a ring…He started wrecking his perfectly gelled up hair, it was like he is angry,he is in pain…

ARYA'S POV

How can I repeat the same mistake again???How can I forget the betrayal of the past???No no, I shouldn't be doing it again....I can't let anyone come in my life again...I can't fall weak..I can't let anyone to hurt me again...No….Never….

POV ENDS

He removed his blazer and threw it in the corner....He started destroying his room... Throwing things here and there…. The perfume bottles where on the floor, broken...The side table lamps was lying broken on the floor...The quilt was on the floor,the bed sheet was crumbled...

Arya was sitting on the floor,with his back on the bed with head down on the bent knees….His phone was continuously ringing, but he did not pay any attention….

Whereas, Aisha was ready in her blank and white striped long jumpsuit….

And was waiting for Arya, and when the mention time passed, she became tensed, but she calm herself, by saying that he might have got stuck in the traffic...Then it was 7pm,but there was no sign of Arya...Aisha called him, texted him, but he didn't respond…. From 7pm it was 7:30pm, now she was fully tense and worried, and decided to call Ruhana...Ruhana picked up the call after 3 rings…

"Heeyyy babes,are you ready????And you should be with Bhai right????Then why you are calling me????" Ruhana confusedly asked…

"Ruu, Arya didn't arrive till now…. And he is not picking up my calls nor he is replying to my texts….Please look na where he is…. I'm worried about him….."

"Relax, let me check...You just stay calm…."

Ruhana went out of her room and ask the servants about Arya, and got to know that he is still in his room….

"Aishu ,he is in his room...Might have got busy with his work…Wait let me check…."

"Yeaaa please...Just let me know that he is fine…."

Ruhana reached Arya's room, and started calling him, but no reply...Then started knocking at the door, called him again….

"Bhai, open the door….Why are you not opening it???? Why are you not responding to Aisha's calls????She is worried about you….Bhai please open the door…."

Arya got irritated by the constant calling, and shouted…

"Go away from here...Leave me alone...I don't want to meet anyone and stop irritating me...I don't give any damn whoever is worried about me and tell her to stop calling me..I am not gonna reply, go away leave me alone…."

Ruhana was shocked with Arya's behaviour...She came out of her trance, when she remembered Aisha was in line…

"Aishu…" She slowly and softly called her name…

"Hmm, I heard…." By saying this she cut the call….

Aisha was also in the shocked state….She never knew Arya can also behave in this way….She felt a throbbing ache in her heart, like someone has snached life out of her...The way he said that he doesn't care about her...She is not able to understand what led to the change of his behaviour...

Without her knowledge, silent tears started flowing from her eyes….Who knew, the memorable day was going to turn into the worst day…
