Everyone has tears in their eyes as they finish telling what happened years ago.

“Then how can we prove that we're not guilty of murdering Sharvari. It was Raunak's own mami and Adarsh.” Maheen asked hugging Heer tightly and Samaira joined them too.

“We don't have any proof with us right now. Also Adarsh and Ankita portrayed us as murderers of not only Sharvari's but also Samar and Saksh.” Aditya said sitting beside Yuvaan, on the couch.

“We've the recording of all the incidents, right bhaiya?” Dev asked.

“we had Dev. But after Dadi left and when we decided that we won't work for them anymore.. I think I hid all the recordings somewhere in the office or in our house…  I don't remember” Yuvaan explained and everyone's face fell down.

“chote papa.. Can we not recover the CCTV of that day near the roadside or anywhere else from Sharvari's house?” Abhimaan asked and Aditya shook his head.

“I don't think so Abhi, so many years have been passed”

“Then the guard? The guard with whom Choti maa talked with that day? Maybe he knows everything” Rehana said, gaining everyone's attention.

“Rehana…  you should stay away from all these stresses” Yuvaan said with a smile but Rehana made a sad pout.

“But I want to help you all”

“Rooh” Abhimaan was going to say something when Dev stopped him.

“You're right Rehana. Yuv bhaiya.. Do you remember the guard was alive when we went there and everything turned into ashes” Dev turned to Yuvaan, who tried to remember and then clapped. “Yes, I remember. We talked with him too”

“The gas leak was huge.. How can anyone be alive after the blast?” Heer asked confusingly and everyone looked at each other.

“Maybe he was informed from the beginning,” Abhimaan said.

“I agree with Abhimaan. Maybe Aadarsh and Ankita had informed him earlier.” Dev said and everyone nodded.

“We should start finding that man then… he is our prime card” Abhimaan said and got up.

“Where are you going?” Heer stopped him, as she knows how dangerous it can be.

“I'm going to see Sharvari's mansion. And don't worry I'll take the police with me. Also my private investigator.”

“Abhimaan.. You don't involve yourself into this matter.” Yuvaan said to which Abhimaan scrunched his brows.

“Yes…  Rehana is pregnant.. She needs you the most.” Samaira said and Rehana looked at Abhimaan.

“But if he wants he can help you all.. It would be good as they know you all papa…  but they don't know your son. Abhimaan can give his false identity to them.” Rehana took Abhimaan's side to which he smiled. “And for me.. You all are here with me…  so i think he is not so important for now” Rehana said sarcastically and everyone laughed looking at Abhimaan's sulking face.

“But you alone?” Aditya asked and Abhimaan bent down on the floor in front of him. Holding his hand he said “it's okay chote papa.. I can manage…  also if needed I'll ask Vihaan to come along after his college hours”

“As you say…  but please be careful” Aditya patted Abhimaan's shoulder and he got up to leave.

Rehana too left behind him and held his wrist when he was going to get up inside the car.

She didn't say anything when he turned towards her, and just hugged him.

“Please be safe..”

“You please take care of yourself Rooh. If you're okay here I'll be okay too” He kissed her forehead and she pecked his lips.

“Take Vihaan jiju too…  don't go alone” Her eyes became watery and Abhimaan nodded his head.

“I'll message you on every hour okay”

“Hmm” She kissed his fingers and he hugged her tightly.

“Take care Rooh” she waved at him when he left the villa.

“Raunak.. “ Divya gasped when Raunak entered the bedroom. His nose was bleeding so as the corner of his lips.

Divya hurriedly got up from the bed and held his arms to look at his wounds from closer.

“Did you fight with bhaiya?” She asked, touching his cheeks but he moved his face aside and tried to get out of her grip without hurting her.

“Stop behaving like a baby for God sake Raunak. Can't you see your nose is bleeding” Divya yelled and Raunak glared at her but she ignored his glares and went to bring the first aid box.

She pushed him on the bed and stood in between his legs. Holding his shirt's collar and pulling him close she garlanded his arms around her waist and all the time he kept looking at her.

“It's Roop's time to fight with kids and come home bleeding. You're too old to do all this stuff Mr. Raunak Suryavanshi” She said while cleaning the wounds and Raunak hissed as the antiseptic lotion hit the wounds badly.

“Ahhh” his hold tightened around her waist and he pulled her closer.

“Oops” She bit her lower lips as he pulled her closer and their bodies were closer than before.

“It'll take a minute to vanish the pain big boy. Stop crying” She chuckled and Raunak too smiled, looking down. But the hot breath fanned on her bare belly skin, and a shiver ran down though her spine as she noticed how his eyes shamelessly observed her belly and hands caressing the bare skin.

“Raunak stop” Divya said, pushing him a little and he came back to reality. For a moment he forgot what he was up to and was going close to her.

They both looked at each other. Divya looked down as her eyes betrayed and hot tears fell down.

“Why are you crying?” Raunak asked, whispering softly and holding her right hand.

Divya shook her head and wiped the tears with her left palm.

“It's nothing to do with you!”

“Seeing me bleeding makes you cry Divya?” He asked with a thudding heartbeat.

“I told you earlier.. And I'm telling you again.. Everytime you fight with my family…  the loss will be mine. Either you'll get hurt or someone from them.. So the ultimate loss is mine, Raunak.”

She freed her hand from his hold and was going to leave the room, but looked at his face and smiled sadly. “But don't worry…  I'll never ask you to stop whatever you're doing. Because you'll always get me between your revenge and my family. And now it's your choice what you want to do. If you're determined to hurt my family, by causing me pain. Then I'm also ready to fight back my tears in front of them. But maybe…  one day you'll lose me.” Saying Divya left, something broke inside Raunak. He could feel how much hurt she was right now. And the last sentence that he'll lose her, brought tears into his eyes. He can do anything to make her happy and tell her how much he loves her but at this point he was again getting confused.

After Divya came out from their bedroom, she rushed down and found Roop was playing a chess game. She smiled at the kid's enthusiasm for everything he does.

“Roop”

“Yes chachi?”

“Can I play with you?” Right now she wanted some destruction from Raunak and his thoughts. So she chose to spend some time with Roop.

“You know chess?”

“Yes” Roop smiled and pushed the chessboard towards her also. They both sat Opposite to each other on the centre table. And started playing.

“Chachi…  you're so good at this game” Roop clapped for Divya as she ate his last sipahi and Divya laughed.

“I'm good at this age Roop  but you're too good at your age” Divya ruffled Roop's hair who shyly smiled and shifted his focus on the chessboard. He scrunched his brows as he was confused about what he would do now.

“Checkmate to your chachi” Roop and Divya both raised their faces and found Raunak was hovering Roop and did his turn.

Their eyes got locked for sometime until Roop jumped in happiness as his queen captured Divya's king.

“The game is not over yet” Divya mumbled looking down at the board for a path to save her king and she smiled at getting the chance.

“Bow down” She said, pushing Roop's king with hers and smiled at the boys.

“Chachu… . You're too bad at this game, why did you do my turn” Roop made an angry face and got more irritated when he found neither Divya, nor Raunak were responding to him. He got up from the chair and left, calling his mumma.

While Raunak and Divya were lost in each other's eyes.

“Are you sure Shruti?” Suhani asked over the call to her friend.

“Yes Suhani.. I saw them in my apartment. They have left for the 5th floor if I'm not wrong” Shruti said from the other side of the call.

Suhani smiled evilly hearing her friend and said

“Thank you so much yaar”

“It's okay.. It's just that I saw your sister and Ayaan. That's why I informed you” with this they disconnected the call and Suhani laughed out loud.

“Why are you laughing?” She heard her mother's voice from behind and found Rekha was standing at the door with a confused face.

“I've got a golden chance mom” She said and left with a happy face which scared Rekha.

~♥~

“Were you crying?” Vihaan asked over the video call, looking at her red puffy eyes.

Hiya at first shook her head as negative but then nodded her head.

“And may I know who made my wife cry?”

“Ayaan bhai left the house with Ishani” Hiya then explained what happened after that.

“Don't worry he will understand soon. Just give him some time.” Vihaan said with a smile and Hiya nodded her head.

“Are you in college?”

“Hmm…  I'll leave in sometime”

“Go home safely. And do message me after reaching. Love you”

“Love you too.. And don't cry more. Go and spend some time with your parents either crying here”

“Hmm”

“Love you and take care Hiya”

Vihaan was leaving from the college when he got a call from Abhimaan, who gave him the address where Rajvansh Villa were years ago and asked him to come there.

~♥~

“Only you and me?” Vihaan asked, observing the sides of the road.

“Police are coming. I've informed them to reopen the case and end this matter. Also my private investigator has started his work on finding The guard” Abhimaan explained.

“Abhimaan did you talk with Ayaan? When I called Hiya, she was crying hard”

“I called him, but he messaged me that he will call me back later”

“everything is falling apart one by one”

“And all of this started because of Raunak” Abhimaan's eyes were blazing fire as he mentioned Raunak's name.

“I was thinking.. why don't we all just bring Divya back from that place”

“She won't come easily, Vihaan. You don't know how stubborn she is” Abhimaan signed hard, walking ahead at the road.

“But at least we should try. Also I forgot to inform, Raunak has called me and asked me to come tomorrow evening for their reception party”

“The audacity of that boy. I want to kill him with my bare hand, trust me Vihaan.”

“Calm down Abhimaan. We need to take steps carefully.” Vihaan held Abhimaan's shoulder and they found the place where Sharvari's mansion used to be, now there was an apartment.

They both looked at each other and went to talk with someone.

~♥~

“It's okay” Ishani hugged Ayaan's back when she saw him, on the balcony of their new house.

Coming out from Suryavanshi villa, Ayaan and Ishani went to one of his friend's apartments to stay for a while until he can arrange an apartment or something for them.

His friend, Ajay, left them to their room, and when Ishani went to take a bath, he chose to stay some time alone on the balcony. But tears flew from his eyes remembering his family.

Coming out when Ishani couldn't find Ayaan inside the room, she went to check on the balcony and heard his low muffled sniffing voice.

Ayaan held her hands and turned her towards himself.

“I hurted them a lot, Ishani” He said hugging Ishani tightly.

“I told you…  it'll cause them pain. Badi maa was so sad. She was breaking down when you said we're leaving the house”

“She is the one I'm missing most,” Ayaan said, smiling a little. “She has always taken care of me, you know Ishu.. Sometimes Abhi bhaiya used to tell me that she loves me more than him. She was always there with me, in my highest or lowest. She gave her everything to make me smile whenever I was sad because of my parents.”

“She loves you Ayaan. We all can see that” Ishani smiled and kissed his shoulder line where her face was resting.

“And today I hurted her so much”

Ishani didn't say anything but just patted his back.
