Vansh took a step forward to interlock his fingers with hers

KABIR

Vansh stopped dead in his tracks listening her call out for kabir

Equally confused as vansh, kabir took long strides and held her hand in his

Making him sit beside her, riddhima hugged him tightly

I LOVE YOU

three words

Yet they held the power to break vansh's heart into millions of pieces

Kabir looked at her shocked

What the hell was going on man

The doctor entered inside the room and greeted everyone

D: good morning
I have gone through your reports ms riddhima
Just need to clarify some things

R: sure

D: can you tell me today's date plz

R: its 13 july 2020

Vansh's face paled hearing her

No

PLZ GOD NO

DONT LET MY FEAR COME TRUE

D: and the last thing you remember ?

R: i got a call from sejal
She told me that she has mistakenly taken two events project
She asked me to go to organise beach party of some business tycoon
His name was
Umm

Vansh looked at her surprised
This was news for him
He always thought that their first meeting was also preplanned

Riddhima held her head tightly trying to remember the name

D: its okay dont stress your brain much
Take rest
Meanwhile i talk to your partner

Riddhima nodded her head and laid down

Coming outside the room,

The doctor looked at vansh and kabir

D: the head injury has resulted in amnesia
She doesn't remember anything from the point she told us about
It would be great if you don't try to remind her of her
past because it can deteriorate her health
I have seen that she is very comfortable with mr kabir
It would be great if he remained around her

V: NO WAY

bhai plz

Vansh turned around to see ishani standing there

I: plzz bhai
Don't let her suffer more
I... i can't see her in this state
She is here because of me

Ishani said crying uncontrollably

Vansh was about to argue with her but kabir spoke in between

K: what makes you guys think that i would help you

I: what do u mean kabir

K: what would i get in return of helping you all

V: YOU BASTARD

K: naaah
Think atleast twice before saying or doing anything
After all you all need me right now

V: what do u want

K: free my mom from prison

V: seriously
You want to free a criminal
Well
What else can I expect from you

K: it would be great if you would first see yourself and your family before giving character certificate to me or my mom

V: YOUU

K:  so
Do we have a deal or not
My mom in exchange for riddhima's well being

Vansh closed his eyes in frustration

V: DEAL

But

The procedure would take time, maybe weeks maybe months

K: I don't mind
I just want my mom back

V: FINE

K: well then
I should go inside
MY GIRLFRIEND MUST BE WAITING FOR ME

Kabir said with an evil smirk and vansh wanted nothing more than to smash his face right then and there

He peeked through the glass door to see his sweetheart hugged kabir tightly as if her life was dependent on him

MAYBE THIS IS WHAT KARMA LOOKS LIKE

FEW DAYS AGO

I REFUSED TO RECOGNISE HER

AND TODAY

CIRCUMSTANCES ARE SUCH THAT SHE ACTUALLY DOESN'T REMEMBERS ME

FEW DAYS AGO SHE BEGGED ME TO SAY THAT IAM HER HUSBAND

AND TODAY

WHEN I WANT TO CLAIM THAT IAM HER HUSBAND

I AM STANDING HERE HELPLESS

FEW DAYS AGO

SHE WAS SEARCHING PROOFS TO PROVE HERSELF MY WIFE

AND TODAY

I DONT HAVE A SINGLE PROOF TO PROVE THAT IAM HER HUSBAND

KARMA HAS HIT ME HARD

AND TODAY I KNOW

WHY PEOPLE SAY

KARMA IS A BITCH

Standing infront of vr mansion, riddhima looked at the vast mansion in aww

R: iam soo happy for you kabir
You finally found your family
The one you were craving for since childhood
I wish i was lucky enough to find my family

K: hey
Whats mine is yours
Remember

Kabir said trying his best to keep his grip on her

Afterall, she was his perfect pawn

Riddhima smiled hearing him and whispered i love to him

Kabir smirked seeing the tall man infront of him

His eyes were red

Which clearly indicated that he had been crying all the time

R: wont you introduce me to everyone

V: don't mine him
He is a complete idiot
I will introduce you to all

R: he is not idiot
He is very smart
Didn't you tell them that you work for cbi

( when kabir went to riddhima in hospital at that time he told her that he had found his family
And that he was not pt teacher instead a cbi agent)

K: OH HE KNOWS IT VERY WELL

kabir said mockingly

After introducing her to everyone riddhima told kabir that she was feeling tired

Ar: so will she be staying in kabir's room from now on??

Aryan asked

Before vansh could give him a piece of mind

Kabir said hurriedly

K: NO WAY
WE WILL NOT SHARE THE ROOM
WE ARE NOT MARRIED

Vansh looked at kabir surprised

He had assumed him to behave like a scumbag and take this opportunity

Riddhima looked at him proudly and gently caressing his cheeks

R: you are the best

Holding her hand, kabir took her to the guest room

As they were passing by the corridor, riddhima's eye fell on sia's room

R: kabir
Who is she?

K: she is my sister sia

R: what happened to her??

K: she was attacked which led her in coma

R: ohh
I hope she recovers soon

K: don't worry about her
Come
You need complete rest

They entered inside the guest room but were surprised to see ahana's stuff there

V: soo sorry riddhima
This room is not available
But no problem
You can take the room next to mine

R: okay
Where is your room

V: come
I'll take you

Giving a death glare to kabir, vansh guided riddhima

Kabir laughed seeing ahana who walked upto the guest room huffing in anger

K: you know
Tumhari halat na
Dhobi ke kutte jesi ho gye hai
Na ghar ka na ghat ka

Ah: youu

K: DONT YOU DARE
IT WOULD BE BETTER IF YOU STAY AWAY FROM ME
BECAUSE
I STILL HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN YOUR BETRAYAL
SO IF YOU WANT TO STAY ALIVE
THEN LEARN TO TALK TO ME WITH RESPECT

saying soo kabir left from there leaving ahana scared

Riddhima entered inside the room and placed her bag near the bed

R: thank u soo much mr rai singhania

V: its no big deal
how are u feeling now

R: much better

Not having the heart to go away from her vansh again tried to initiate a conversation with her when the servant came and told them that dadi was calling them for lunch

Moving downstairs, riddhima went near dadi and asked her in a serious tone

R: dadi
Should i ask you something

D: yaa

R: how is your skin soo flawless dadi

D: dhat

R: no seriously
Even in this age

I: aree bhabhi
Dadi abhi bhi jawaan hain

R: bhabhi??

Riddhima asked her surprised

I: sorry
Slip of tongue
Leave all that
Come lets have food
Dadi has made all your favourites

Riddhima looked at the food and frowned

It was not her favourite at all

ITS NOT HER FAVOURITE

Came a voice from behind

Everyone turned to see kabir walking towards them

K: riddhima's favourite is Chinese

R: its okay
I will eat it
Afterall, dadi has made all this with soo much love

Dadi smiled and patted her head

Vansh too smiled seeing her

She always cared for others

Never complaining for anything

Was it really possible that she had given proof against him to the police
Killed ragini
And
Attacked sia

Ishani had always been rude to her still she saved her

But sia

Sia and riddhima were the closest

Just like best friends

Then

Could she harm sia just because sia got to know that she was a spy

Or was there was more to the story

SEEING THE BATTLE GOING ON BETWEEN HIS HEART AND MIND, GOD TOOK PITY ON HIM

AS SIA MOVED HER FINGERS A LITTLE
