After sometime Sana broke the hug forcefully and uttered in shock, "Ajay".

Sidharth was also shocked hearing the name from Sana's mouth.

"So this is Ajay. But what is he doing here?" He said in his mind.

Ajay cupped Sana's face with tearful eyes and said, "Kaha chali gayi thi tu Sana? I missed you so damn much. I missed my best friend. Ek mahine se tu gayab hai. Maine tujhe itna dhunda, itne calls kiye, lekin tera number not reachable tha. Phir jab paata chala ki tu Paris mein hai toh main as soon as possible yaaha aa gaya. Tu thik toh hai nah?"

Sana just nodded in yes. She was not in a condition to say anything. Ajay's sudden arrival was really unexpected for her. And the most unexpected thing was there was no feeling in her heart inspite of meeting Ajay after so long.

Many times she thought that if she got a chance to meet Ajay again, she would yell at her, she would show anger on him, she would ask him why he broke their friendship. But now when he was in front of her, she couldn't do anything as there was no such kind of feelings. Neither she was angry nor she was happy. She was looking at him with no emotion.

On the other hand, Sidharth thought that Sana would now go back to Ajay. He knew how much Sana loved Ajay, how much she used to cry for him. Now when Ajay returned, they would definitely reunite. And there would be no place left for him. He himself had closed all the doors.

Sidharth looked upwards and gave a sarcastic smile to his destiny. Then he left from there leaving Sana and Ajay alone.

"Mera number not reachable tha because I have changed my SIM card. Main kisi se koi contact nahi rakhna chahti thi. But how do you come to know I'm in Paris?" Sana said to Ajay.

They both were in Sana's room.

"Mujhe toh idea bhi nahi tha ki tu Paris mein ho sakti hai. Phir humari office ki boss Ms. Chopra ne apni Beti ki shaadi ke posts humein dikhayi. Unki Beti ne recently Paris mein shaadi ki hai. Aur uss shaadi ke function mein maine teri bhi pic dekhi. Tab jaa ke paata chala ki tu Paris mein hai." Ajay said.

Now Sana understood the matter.

"Aditi, Ms. Chopra ki beti hai?" Sana asked to which Ajay nodded in yes.

"Maine uss hi waqt Ms. Chopra ko yeh baataya aur office se kuch loan leke Paris mein chala aaya. Aur Paris mein tu kaha hai yeh baat bhi mujhe Aditi se paata chali."

Ajay slowly went towards Sana and hold her hands.

"Tu mujhe bina baataye kyu chali gayi thi?" He asked.

"Tu hi toh chahta tha ki main tujhse dur chali jaau." She said removing her hands.

"Insaan gusse mein bohut kuch bol deta hai Sana. Sab baatein dil pe thodi lagate hai?"

Sana avoided the topic and said, "Woh sab chhor na. Yeh baata Mia kaisi hai? Aur shaadi kab kar rahe ho tum dono?"

"We broke up." Ajay said sadly.

"What?" Sana asked with disbelief.

"Tere jaane ke kuch din baad paata chala Mia was cheating on me. Usse kabhi mujhse pyaar tha hi nahi. I even feel ashamed of myself ki maine uss jaisi ladki ki wajah se tujhse dosti tod di. Apni hi bestfriend ko paraya kar diya. I'm sorry Sana."

"It's ok."

That was all Sana could say.

"And the most important thing is, this one month helped me to realise that I love you."

Ajay confessed and Sana looked at him being shocked.

"What did you just say?" She asked.

"It's true Sana. Main pyaar karta hoon tujhse. And now I feel tu hi mere liye best hai. Main gadha tha jo itne dino tere pyaar ko dekhte hue bhi undekha kar raha tha. Pagal ho chuka tha uss Mia ke piche. Lekin ab mujhe apni galti ko sudharna hai. I want to marry you. Tu please mere saath Chandigarh wapas chal. Apne ghar. Phir sab thik ho jayega."

Sana still couldn't believe that Ajay said this. She always waited for this day. But when this actually happened there was not even a smile on her face. In fact there was a fear. Fear of losing her love, her Sidharth. Though he cleared it very well that he didn't love her but she did. She couldn't accept Ajay when her heart already belonged to someone else.

"Ajay tu yaheen ruk, main abhi aati hoon."

Saying that Sana immediately left from there.

"Sana...." Ajay called her but she didn't stop.

She went to Sidharth's room in haste.

"Mujhe tumse baat karni hai." She said entering the room.

Sidharth was facing his back to Sana. He didn't turn and said, "Baatao."

In mind he was expecting something bad. Something he would never want to hear.

"Ajay ka break-up ho chuka hai. And now he loves me. Woh mujhse shaadi karna chahta hai. Mujhe apne saath wapas Chandigarh le ke jaana chahta hai." She said in one go and started waiting for Sidharth's reaction.

Sidharth closed his eyes feeling a deep pain in his heart. He knew it. Ajay came here only to snatch his Sana from him. And he didn't have the minimum power to hold her back. He started feeling like a loser.

"Yeh toh acchi baat hai. I hope now you are happy." He said controlling his emotions.

His words irritated her to no end.

She ran to him and made him turn forcefully. She grabbed his collars angrily. Her eyes were filled with tears.

"Bacche ho tum? Itni si baat samajh mein nahi aati tumhe? Sidharth how can I be happy when I love you? I love you so much Sidharth. Tum kyu nahi samajh rahe ho?"

Sana started crying keeping her head on his chest.

Tears rolled down Sidharth's cheeks. He wanted to say the same to her but words were not coming out of his mouth as he knew if he told her so she would never leave.

Sidharth pushed her away and said, "Yeh hi toh problem hai tumhari Sana. You can never be happy. You always want what you can't have. Pehle tumhe Ajay chahiye tha. Suicide tak karne chali thi uski wajah se. Aur ab jab Ajay khud tumse keh raha hai that he loves you, you don't want him. Now you want me, because you can't have me, because I'm committed to someone else."

Sana got hurt hearing that. She felt that thousands of needles pierced her heart.

"Yeh tum bol rahe ho Sidharth?" She asked with moist eyes.

"Haan main hi bol raha hoon. Frustrated ho chuka hoon main. Suru se le kar tumhare saath hoon. Saari wishes bhi puri kar di tumhari. Phir bhi tumhara mann nahi bharta. Ab tum yeh bhi expect kar rahi ho ki main tumse pyaar karu but aisa nahi hoga. I have someone in my life and I love her. So nothing can happen between us." He said showing anger.

"Main kuch expect nahi kar rahi hoon tumse. Tum mujhse pyaar mat karo but at least mujhe apne saath rehne do. Main Ajay ke saath nahi jaana chahti. Ek baar mujhe rok lo."

"Kis haq se?" Sidharth asked. "Who am I to you? Boyfriend? Husband?"

Sana nodded in no.

"Then kyu roku mai tumhe?"

"Ek attachment toh hai nah. Uss hi ke khatir rok lo, please." Sana pleaded.

Sidharth tried not to look at her eyes because those were his weak point. And he had stay strong at any cost.

"Main nahi rok sakta tumhe. Main toh yeh hi kahunga tum Ajay ke saath chali jaao. He will keep you happy. You have a bright future with him. Aur humara....hunara koi future nahi hai."

"Main nahi jaa sakti uske saath."

"Tumhe meri kasam Shehnaaz." Sidharth said suddenly making Sana shocked.

"Maine itna kuch kiya hai nah tumhare liye. Mere liye itna kar do. Mera picha chhor do aur Ajay ko apna lo. I request you." He said folding his hands.

Sana smiled in sarcastic way and said, "Toh ab tum mujhe apna karz chuka ne ko keh rahe ho Sidharth Shukla?"

"Aisa hi samajh lo."

"Okay. Agar yeh hi ek raasta hai toh main chuka dungi tumhara karz. And you know main tumhara kasam nahi tod sakti. I'll marry Ajay. Jisne mujhe puri zindagi itne dukh diye, uss hi se shaadi kar lungi. Uss mein kya hai? Kisi ko meri thodi padhi hai?"

Saying that Sana left the room being extremely hurt.

As soon as she left, Sidharth fell on his knees and started crying.

In Sana's Room...

Sana entered the room and asked, "Kab jaa rahe hai hum Chandigarh?"

A huge smile came to Ajay's face.

"Agar tu chahe toh kaal hi jaa sakte hai. I'll book the flight tickets."

"Okay."

"So you are ready to marry me, right?"

"Yeah." Sana said without looking at him.

Ajay was on cloud nine.
