*Ajay Mehra Pov*

"Ajay! Today we have a very important meeting with the bank regarding the loans." Dad said entering the office room.

"I remember, Dad." I said and then turned to see Jiya frowning while staring at the system.

"Are you fine, Jiya?" Dad and I asked her at a time.

She got startled and looked up saying, "I am fine!"

"We will leave for the meeting in ten minutes." Dad said, and we both nodded getting up.

When we walked towards the stairs, Jiya suddenly gasped and held the railing tightly.

"Jiya!" I said, holding her shoulders, but she flinched away from my hold.

"Are you really fine?" I asked her, ignoring her reaction to my touch.

"Yes!" She replied and we both continued walking down the stairs, and I tried to stay near to her.

I can see her gripping the staircase in the gaps. I frowned, and we reached near Mom and Dad who are looking at us frowning.

"Ahh!" Jiya shouted and leaned on the table.

"Jiya!" I shouted and held her into my arms.

"What happened?" Mom asked frowning.

"Nothing!" She replied, backing away from my hold, but I tightened the grip.

"What is paining?" Mom asked, holding her hand.

"Abdomen!" She replied, and I frowned.

"I will take her to the hospital. You both go to the meeting." Mom said, turning towards us.

"But Mom, I will take her." I said panicking.

"No! She may need privacy, and I am here right so you both go." Mom said and I reluctantly nodded and walked away with my Dad after squeezing her hand.

I sat in his car and considered how I drove to her parent's house within minutes after them and made her come outside the house.

"What are you doing here?" She asked in a monotone when I reached there.

"We need to talk." I replied.

"About what? That I need to get paid for giving services even after the contract has been over?" She asked and I bit my tongue not to reveal the truth or to say anything.

"Please, I need to talk with you." I pleaded with her.

"I don't want to do anything in your matter. So you can please leave." She said, shaking her head.

"It is about the case." I said, and she stared at me.

"Can you come to my office?" I asked her taking out the card.

"Ok!" She replied and looked at her surprised as she agreed immediately.

I paced in my cabin and looked at the photo album which I placed making sure the visitors can watch it.

I sat in my chair and after some time, I heard a knock. I glanced up to see Jiya is standing near the door.

"Please, sit down." I said, and she nodded sitting before me.

"What do you want to talk about?" She asked and glanced at the photo frame.

"There is nothing to talk about the case." I replied and she nodded, holding the photo frame in her hand with a blank expression.

She doesn't look like Jiya at all. Who is this woman? Why is she acting like everything is fine?

I continued to gaze at the woman sitting in front of me hoping she will glance at me at least once and not at our wedding photo which she is holding after taking it from my table.

I cleared my throat and calmly asked, "She tried to take her life just because she got betrayed by her love. But you didn't let one single tear fall from your eyes and didn't ask me any questions, even after knowing that I betrayed you. Why?"

I patiently waited for her answer which I wanted to know for a few days very eagerly.

"Her love is pure. But..." She just trailed off.

"But?" I stressed leaning forward, placing my elbows on the table.

"But mine is.... Just an act." she said the last words looking at me straight in the eyes and placed the photo frame back in its place, but made sure the photo is facing the table and not anywhere else.

"So that's all I guess. Have a nice life." Saying that she got up and left my office cabin while I just stared at her in complete shock.

Just an act? Should I be relieved feeling less guilty? Of course, I should! Nevertheless, why am I feeling like I should ask her again to make sure what she said is true?

"We are here." Dad's voice brought me out of my thoughts.

She said it is an act, but I didn't believe her. But again, I saw honesty when she said those words. I don't know what to even think about that at all.

We both sat in the conference hall, and I sat calmly considering how shocked I felt at that time.

By the time I got my thoughts cleared and decided to talk to her again, I rushed outside only to see that she has already gone.

I rushed towards my car and drove to her house only to find out that they have shifted one hour before.

So that means she met me after shifting the luggage and before leaving Palghar. But where did they go?

It took nearly one week to learn that they are in Mumbai and also about their address.

When I reached there, she was not willing to meet me at all. I tried more, but in the end had to do one stupid thing.

"You need to pay this amount instead of your brother." I said when she walked outside the house.

"I am looking for a job. When I get it, I will pay." She said and started walking away.

"It's a whole lot of amounts, and I know all your properties have been seized. I have a way by which you can pay." I said, and she shook her head.

"I too have a way to pay the debt." She said staring back.

"How?" I asked her frowning.

"Like I slept beside you, I will sleep beside someone else." She replied, and I gripped her shoulders in my hands tightly.

"Just listen to my way." I said, and she backed away from my hold.

"What is it?" She asked, taking a deep breath.

"Work for me for a year and I will write off all the debt." I replied.

"No!" She said and started walking away.

"Will it affect you to work with me?" I asked and she turned around saying, "No!"

"Then work." I said and after a few minutes, she accepted.

I took the file I brought with me and placed it in front of her. She took nearly half an hour to view the whole file.

"Why are you reading it in so detail?" I asked her frowning.

"I don't want to sign again on some paper about which I don't have any idea about." She replied, and I nodded hiding the flinch.

"I want only one rule, and I will back away from the contract if it is not fulfilled." She said looking up.

"What is it?" I asked her frowning.

"We need to have only professional relation and nothing else." She replied.

"Sure!" I said, nodding.

"I will join there from tomorrow, Mr.Mehra." She said signing the contract.

"Whatever you wish, Mrs.Mehra." I said.

"It's Ms.Sarin! I am not a married woman now." She said, and I nodded.

"Ajay! Meeting is over." I felt Dad shaking me.

"I am very sorry Dad. I was just lost." I said, looking around the empty conference room.

"It's ok! Let's just go." Dad said, and I nodded at him.

I was anxious to go home and know whether Jiya is fine or not. I don't want anything bad to happen to her.

She is very important to me. I like her so much. She is... she is my life. My eyes widened with the realization.

I love her! I fall in love with her. Suddenly, a smile broke on my face, and I was like I am actually flying.

"Dad! Can you drive fast?" I asked him.

"Sure!" He replied, and I started thinking about plans I need to do to express my love.

I know she doesn't love me now, but I want to tell her that I do and I want to be with her through my whole life.

When Dad stopped, I rushed inside the home and saw Mom sitting on the dining table drinking water.

"Where is she? Is she ok?" I asked her.

"She is taking a rest, and she is fine. Do not worry." She replied, not looking at me.

"Ok!" I mumbled and decided to talk to her later when she gets up.

"What was the problem?" I asked her.

"Just some women's problem." She replied, still looking down.

"Ok!" I again mumbled and walked inside the office to catch up with the meeting that happened today.

*Jiya Pov*

"Ahh!" I screamed again by the time we reached the hospital, and Madam gave me support.

They immediately admitted me and done a few tests. After one hour, we were called inside and the pain reduced a little when I took a painkiller given by them.

"Did you have a miscarriage?" Doctor suddenly asked, and my eyes widened.

"What?" Joshna madam said in shock.

"Yes!" I replied.

"When?" Doctor asked.

"Seven months back." I replied.

"Did you take all the precautions and then did you go for a check up again?" She asked.

"No!" I replied, and she nodded.

"You got a slight infection because of the carelessness. The medicines must be followed correctly, otherwise something like this will happen." Doctor said shaking her head.

"Is there any major problem?" Mrs.Joshna asked.

"No! At least now, she needs to take care of herself and follow the instructions I give her otherwise the infection may increase, and it will be lost only when we remove the uterus." Doctor replied and Mrs.Joshna gasped, but I closed my eyes.

"I will make her follow them." Mrs.Joshna said, and the doctor nodded giving the instructions.

While driving back, I took a deep breath and said, "Please don't tell this to anyone."

"Anyone?" She asked, frowning.

"No one knows so please don't. And Mr.Mehra should not know about it mainly." I replied.

"My son?" She asked shocked.

"Yes! Can you please hide it?" I pleaded with her.

"No! I will not hide it when they ask me about it." She replied shaking her head.

"Ok! I will not take medicines." I said staring outside.

"But that will harm your uterus." She said fearing.

"Let it get harmed. I don't care about it." I said, but inside I am pushing down the memories with all the power I can.

"Ok! But you have to take all the medicines and do as I ask you to." She said, and I nodded turning towards her.

"Thanks!" I said, nodding again.

"You go and take a rest." She said when we reached her home.

"Thanks again, Madam." I said and walked inside the room.

I lay down in my bed and drifted off into sleep feeling the effects of the painkiller.
