______________________________________________________________________________________
Ruhani moved towards her car . She sat on it and the tears which she was holding till now started to flow . Ruhani was continuously sobbing , due to which her eyes had turned red . Ruhani was feeling as if her heart was shattering , the sister she believed more than everyone , will do such an action.
On the other hand .
Mr Avinash Oberoi is one of the big businessmen of Mumbai .
Akash entered their villa and hugged his parents.
Mr Avinash " Akash , why can't you talk with Ruhani about the business matters?".
Akash : " Dad,I ...".
Mr Avinash interrupted and said " I don't know anything , u already are cheating her, so what is the problem to ask . "
Akash became very furious and suddenly threw the glass bottle which was there and said in a deep voice "I don't care , my life is already separated from yours , so it's better if u stop taking decisions for me and I am Enough big to take decisions for myself."
He left after completing his sentence and his parents couldn't do anything except staring at him , who was going away.
Akash controlled himself and went towards Ruhani's car and saw that she was breathing heavily and was crying in a very bad way . He quickly opened the car's door and hugged her . When she felt his presence she broke down into tears in a more bad way.
Akash tried to console her but it was of no use.
She said in a broken voice
"I can't believe what I just found out....
The feeling of betrayal is overwhelming. My sister, someone I've always looked up to and shared..... everything with, cheated on her partner. It's like a punch to the gut..... I'm angry-so incredibly angry......
How could she do something so hurtful?"
"It's not just about her; it's about the trust that's broken and the pain it caused. I can't help.... but think about how her actions affect everyone around her, including me. I feel confused too. I thought I knew her, and now I'm left questioning everything. Why did she think this was okay? Didn't she realize how it would hurt ..... the people who care about her?"
"Most of all, I feel a deep sense of loss. The sister I admired seems so different now. I don't want to lose our bond... over this, but it's hard to see how we can go back to how things were. I just hope..... she can understand the pain she's caused and we can find a way...... to talk about it. I don't want to lose her, but I know things will never ... be the same....."
Akash understood the pain she was bearing . Ruhani was feeling very bad and said " When.. you knew...... everything! Whyy why... You didn't tell everyone before?? Why!!!". Ruhani shouted in a broken voice .
She started hitting his chest and said :
"
I hate you
I hate you
I hate you
I hate you
I hate you
I hatee.... Yo..uu...
Akash could not understand what to do ,and now Ruhani was crying very badly. By now tears were filled in Akash 's eyes as well but he suppressed them within him. He couldn't find any way to calm Ruhani . So he held Ruhani's face and placed his lips on her lips. As soon as Ruhani realized what happened she got startled and tried to move apart, but it had no impact on Akash he was kissing Ruhani lightly so that her anger and pain can be relieved to at least some extent. After suffocating for some time , Ruhani also surrendered herself to Akash . After some time Akash left her , by now a rosy tinch was formed on her cheeks. Akash placed a soft kiss on her cheek and said " Don't cry Rooh" and then hugged her.
Ruhani said " Akash tumhe in sab ke bare me pata kese chla , mera matlab jab me tumhare ghar gayi thi tab mujhe tum or di hug karte hue mile . To tumhe pata kese chla in sabke bare me or tumne pehle kyu nahi bataya"
[ For those who don't understand hindi :Akash how did you know about this? I mean when I have gone to your house I have seen you and my sister hugging. Then how did you know about all this and why haven't you told me before?]
Akash said " Tumhe pata he jab sach ata he samne to acha lagta he par jab sach sabke samne eksath ata he tab jo humiliation hota he wo alag hi he. Agar me pehli hi bata deta ghar pe to tab itne logo ke samne itna maza kaise ata. Anushree ka jo insult aj hua he uske bad shayad e wo dubara tumhare or mere beech ayegi. Aur rahi bat mujhe kaise pata chali uski to mujhe pata tha kyuki wo area mere papa ka he to waha par kya ho raha he mujhe pata hota he !"
[You know when truth comes out it feels good but when it comes out in front of everyone the humiliation suffered by the person is very different. If I would have said it in my home then how would there be so much fun. The insult that Anushree had faced today, I don't think that again she will come between us. And left with how I came to know about it is , the area was of my father so anything that happens over there, i always come to know about it ]
Ruhani nodded. Akash picked her up and settled her up on the passenger seat. Akash then himself settled on the driver seat. Akash started driving the car , Ruhani was very tired . She slept in the car but Akash didn't notice. Reaching at his home he saw Ruhani sleeping in a deep sleep. Akash called her mother .
Akash : " Aunty actually she slept in the car after the party so she could stay today. I will surely drop her tomorrow !".
Malaika : " Ok dear". She was impressed by such good behaviour of Akash .
Akash smiled and then opened the car door carefully. He picked her up and brought her towards his room and laid her on the bed. He moved some strands of hair that were coming on her face and kept looking at her face .
As Akash watches her sleep peacefully in front of me, he can't help but feel a rush of emotions. There's a warmth in the chest, a sense of gratitude that we're sharing this moment together. She looks so serene and beautiful, and it fills him with admiration.
He feels protective, wanting to keep her safe and comfortable-like nothing could disturb her peace right now. There's something incredibly intimate about this moment; it feels like they are connected in a way that words can't capture. He finds himself smiling softly, thinking about all the memories we've created and how lucky he was to have her in his life.
As Akash observes her serene form asleep in front of him, he's enveloped by a tapestry of emotions that swirl within his chest. This moment feels sacred, imbued with warmth and gratitude for their shared existence. Her peacefulness enhances her beauty, stirring a deep admiration that wells up inside him.
In this tranquil scene, a fierce protectiveness rises within him-a primal urge to shield her from any disturbance, to ensure that her peace remains undisturbed. The intimacy of the moment is palpable; it's a silent connection that transcends words, grounding them in a shared experience of love and solace.
He can't help but smile softly as memories flood his mind-the laughter they've shared, the quiet moments that define their relationship. Yet, beneath this happiness lies a bittersweet ache, a longing for deeper engagement. He yearns for the opportunity to converse, to share stories, to fully experience life together while they're enveloped in this blissful cocoon of companionship.
For now, though, he finds contentment in simply watching over her, allowing admiration and love to wash over him in waves. It's a fleeting yet profound captive moment, one that he knows he will treasure deeply-an exquisite blend of solitude and belonging in the space they've carved out for each other.
As the moon cast a silvery glow through the window, Akash found himself drawn to the bed where Ruhani lay peacefully asleep. The gentle hum of the night enveloped the room, interrupted only by the soft tick-tock of the clock on the wall. A cool breeze drifted in, rustling the curtains and bringing with it the scent of blooming night jasmine that wafted through the open window.
Ruhani stirred slightly, her delicate hand reaching towards the warmth of his presence. Akash felt her fingers wrap around his left hand, her grip light yet reassuring, as if seeking comfort in the safety of his touch. He smiled, a warmth spreading through him as he sat beside her. The world outside faded into a distant murmur, the quiet of the night weaving a cocoon around them.
With her head resting against the plush fabric of the bed, Ruhani looked serene under the gentle moonlight. Her features were softened, bathed in shades of silver, and a small sigh escaped her lips, hinting at dreams that danced just out of reach. Akash couldn't help but admire her, watching the way her chest rose and fell in a calm rhythm, a peacefulness that made his heart swell.
The nostalgia of shared moments flooded his mind-the laughter over midnight snacks, the quiet whispers during long drives home, and the comfort of simply being together in the silence. As he leaned back against the bed and allowed himself to relax, the tension of the day slipped away, replaced by an overwhelming sense of gratitude for this quiet night.
With a soft yawn, Akash shuffled slightly closer, trying not to disturb her. The night felt infinite, as if time had stopped just for them. He closed his eyes, surrendering to the tranquility of the moment. The coolness of the room contrasted with the warmth of Ruhani's hand in his, creating an inviting juxtaposition that lulled him into sleep.
In dreams, he found himself wandering through a starlit landscape, where each twinkle above resembled the laughter they had shared. Together, they ran through fields of shimmering silver grass, with the stars wrapping around them like a blanket. They talked in whispers, revealing secrets and aspirations, finding solace in one another's company.
Back in the living room, as the night deepened, the moon continued its watch over them. Akash slumbered deeply, his body relaxed beside Ruhani, who remained blissfully unaware of the world outside. Each soft breath they shared echoed the unspoken understanding and bond forged in the quiet moments of life.
The stillness of the night embraced them, a perfect moment suspended in time-two souls intertwined, dreaming beneath the vast, endless sky.
******************************************************************************
As dawn broke, the first rays of sunlight began to filter through the curtains, casting a golden hue across the room. The once-silvery glow of the moonlight faded into the warm embrace of morning, and the soft chirping of birds outside heralded the arrival of a new day. Akash stirred slowly, the soft warmth of the sunlight kissing his face and prompting him to blink awake.
He took a moment to gather his thoughts, still caught in the remnants of his dreams, where laughter and fields of shimmering grass lingered like echoes in his mind. The cool breeze had dissipated, replaced by gentle warmth that filled the air with the promise of a beautiful day. But as his gaze drifted toward the bed, he was instantly reminded of the previous night's tranquility and the comforting presence of Ruhani beside him.
Ruhani had rolled over in her sleep, her hair spilling across the pillow in soft waves, and her features framed in soft sunlight. Akash watched momentarily, a smile spreading across his face as he admired her. In that stillness, he felt a surge of affection-a deep appreciation for the life they were building together, one quiet night, one shared laugh, one dream at a time.
After a few moments of stealing glances at her tranquil form, Akash decided to start the day. He eased himself off the bed, careful not to disturb her slumber. The day was beginning to unfold with an air of promise, evoking a sense of adventure that made his heart flutter with excitement. He tiptoed out of the room, heading for the kitchen, where he planned to prepare breakfast-a small gesture of love to start the day on a joyful note.
The gentle hiss of the kettle and the rhythmic chopping of vegetables filled the kitchen as Akash moved around with practiced ease. He decided to make a light breakfast: fluffy scrambled eggs, crispy toast, and a pot of freshly brewed tea. The familiar scents wafted through the air, filling the small space with warmth and comfort.
As he prepared, his thoughts wandered back to Ruhani. He envisioned her reaction upon waking to the delightful aroma of breakfast, and he imagined the playful banter they would share over the meal. The anticipation of that moment brought a contented smile to his face.
After setting the table with care, he took one last glance at the carefully laid-out meal before making his way back to the bedroom. Akash gently nudged Ruhani, a playful smile gracing his lips. "Rise and shine, sleepyhead. Breakfast is ready," he murmured softly, his voice a gentle invitation to the new day.
Ruhani stirred, her eyes fluttering open to meet the morning light and Akash's warm smile. A sleepy grin spread across her face as she took in the scene-the breakfast he had prepared, the sun streaming in, and above all, the love reflected in his eyes.
"Did you really make all this?" she asked, still wrapped in the haziness of sleep but with a spark of joy in her voice.
"I did," he replied playfully. "Now come, let's eat before everything gets cold!"
As they sat down together, the previous night's serenity lingered in the air, transforming into a vibrant morning filled with laughter and conversation. They shared their dreams from the night before, exchanged playful teasing, and enjoyed the warmth of each other's company, embracing the day ahead.
With each bite and each shared glance, the love between them deepened, intertwining their hopes for the day with the memories of the night before.
As the morning unfolded, Akash and Ruhani shared laughter and warmth over breakfast, savoring the simplicity of the moment and the connection they had nurtured. The sun climbed higher in the sky, scattering streaks of light across the room. Soon, however, the time had come for them to face the reality of their separate routines.
After breakfast, they both slipped into comfortable clothes, enjoying the casual intimacy that characterized their relationship. Akash knew they had to make the trip to Ruhani's house, a short drive but one that always felt bittersweet-especially on days like this when they had shared such warmth.
With a playful nudge, Ruhani grabbed her bag and slid the door open, allowing the cheerful sounds of the world outside to spill in. Akash walked beside her, the mild breeze carrying the scent of blooming flowers. He could feel a flicker of reluctance as they stepped outside, a hint of longing mingling with the contentment from their morning together.
They made their way to the car, a small yet reliable hatchback that had taken them on various little adventures. Akash opened the passenger door for Ruhani, a gesture that never failed to bring a smile to her face. Once she settled in, he rounded the car and slipped into the driver's seat, his heart warming at the familiarity of it all.
As they pulled away from the curb, the streets were alive with the pulse of the city awakening-a blend of laughter, chatter, and distant honks weaving together a rich tapestry of life. With the windows rolled down, the cool air danced inside, mingling with the sounds of their favorite playlist softly filling the car. They exchanged glances, the unspoken bond between them making each moment feel significant.
The drive was filled with light conversation, sharing snippets of their lives, dreams, and the little things that made them smile-Ruhani's excitement about a new book release and Akash's plans for a garden. Yet, even as laughter escaped their lips, an undercurrent of emotion flowed between them, aware that their time together was drawing to a close, at least for now.
As they neared Ruhani's neighborhood, the streets became familiar to them-lined with trees swaying gently in the breeze, houses adorned with flower beds bursting with color. Akash felt a mix of gratitude for the time they had together and a tinge of sadness at the impending goodbye.
Pulling up outside her house, he parked the car and turned to face her, the expression on his face reflecting the warmth in his chest. "I wish I could keep you here for a little longer," he said, his voice soft yet sincere.
Ruhani smiled, her eyes sparkling with a hint of mischief, "Well, I suppose I'll have to make sure to keep your heart warmed until we see each other again."
They shared a lingering look, one filled with promises and the knowledge that they would soon reconnect. Akash reached over and squeezed her hand gently, a silent vow to always cherish these moments, no matter how brief.
With a deep breath, they exited the car together. As they walked to the front door, Ruhani turned to him, her expression shifting momentarily to one of vulnerability. "Thanks for this morning. I loved every moment," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.
"Me too," Akash replied, feeling the weight of her words. "Let's make sure we plan something soon."
After a final hug, a moment that felt like it stretched forever, they exchanged warm smiles. Ruhani opened the door and stepped inside. Just before she fully disappeared beyond the threshold, Akash called out, "See you soon, okay?"
"Absolutely," she replied, her smile lingering in his mind as she closed the door.
As he drove away, Akash couldn't help but glance in the rearview mirror one last time. The image of her standing in the doorway remained etched in his heart, a reminder of their shared moments and the anticipation of the adventures still to come.
Reaching her home . She was lost in the memories which she had spent in these days.
After reaching home, Ruhani found herself enveloped in a swirl of emotions. The transition from the warmth of the morning she had shared with Akash to the solitude of her living space felt stark. As she stepped inside, a wave of nostalgia washed over her. Every corner of her home whispered reminders of the laughter, affection, and ease they had shared over breakfast. The half-finished plates on the table and the soft glow of the morning sun streaming through the window conjured vivid images of their time together, infusing her with a longing for those joyful moments to last just a little longer.
Beneath the nostalgia, there was a profound sense of contentment. Despite the bittersweetness of their goodbye, Ruhani felt grateful for the connection she had with Akash. Their shared laughter, the playful nudge, and the warmth of their conversation had created an intimate tapestry of experiences that she cherished deeply. This feeling of contentment reminded her that their relationship was built on genuine affection and understanding, making every moment spent together feel significant. For her, this was not just a fleeting encounter but a building block in a relationship that held so much potential.
Yet, as she settled into the familiar comfort of her home, a hint of vulnerability crept in. With Akash's departure came a realization of the fragility of their moments together, and she felt a slight ache at the thought of their impending separation. There was an awareness that, while their connection was strong, life would soon pull them back into the routines and responsibilities that often kept them apart. This vulnerability made her reflection more poignant, as she recognized the emotional stakes of their relationship and how much she valued their time together.
Amidst these emotions, anticipation flickered within her. The tentative plans that lay ahead offered a glimmer of hope. Ruhani understood that this goodbye was not the end; it was merely a pause filled with possibility. She began to envision the next adventure they could share-a picnic under the sun, a movie night cozy on the couch, or an impromptu drive to explore new spots in the city. This anticipation infused her with excitement, propelling her to reach for her phone to message Akash with ideas for their next meet-up, eager to keep the momentum of their connection alive.
In that moment, as she sat down and began to craft her message, Ruhani felt a renewed sense of resolve. The emotions swirling in her heart, from nostalgia to hope, solidified her commitment to nurture the bond they had formed. Despite the bittersweet realities of their lives, she chose to focus on the joy of what they had shared and the promise of more meaningful moments to come. As she hit send, she felt a surge of optimism, ready to embrace whatever adventures awaited her and Akash in the future.
******************************************************************************
Few days later.
In college , Today Akash was seen no where. His phone was also not reachable . Ruhani was attending the lectures but she was also a little worried ð« that why Akash was not picking up the call and why did he miss college? Her mood was off today due to some chaos in home and she thought by spending time with Akash she will feel better. But here he had vanished.
She tried calling him for the last time but nothing made any difference, there was no trace where Akash was. So she decided to go to the drama club and she started practicing over there.
There she was feeling very awkward because Akash was not there and she was all alone. She completed her practice and she left from there....
After college . She was waiting for her car when suddenly someone's call started to flash on her phone. The call was from Sonakshi Mehra, mother of Anushree Mehra. For more than 5 times Ruhani declined the call but when she saw she is calling her again she picked it up and said " yes Aunty".
Sonakshi said in a crying voice " Ruhani, I can't find Anu, please help me !"
Ruhani disconnected the call and stood near the stop. She said on her own " Di is also missing, and Akash also?"
" How can this be possible that both of them are lost on the same day. "
Ruhani dialed one of the numbers and when the call connected she said " Find Ms Anushree Mehra and Mr Akash Oberoi".
