Ragini was devastated, when she realised the truth of her life comes up again, the time she spend with Laksh was undoubtedly one of her most beautiful time. He has been there, when no one was there to support her. He as a stranger become her partner, who had sacrificed his life / freedom just to help her. Not only this, he even tries to find out the truth while the others have given up.

Given up on Lakshya, as they found his lookalike, who never pretended to be their Laksh. But still they found the fault in him. Him, the one who had done so much, played a son, a brother even a Husband with respect. He never crossed his limit and yet they had blamed him. Her father, Shekhar, had done it and the others followed him.

She couldn't hear their blames anymore on him, how bad they were talking behind his back, while he left with the promise to find their Lakshya.

How can they be so cruel and selfish? I have imagine that they might blame him, but after what he had done so far, I thought they might see their mistake and would seek for forgiveness. But no, they don't care and can't see what they had done to him, his life. They have ruined his dream of a marriage, not only Women have such dreams even men's have it and they deserved a fairytale wedding too. But what we did was wrong, we thought wrong and acted the way, WRONG. And what he did? Nothing, he played along with me, for my sake he did it. He could leave the moment he felt the time is right, but he didn't, he stayed for me, because he had fallen for me. And I? Did I fall for him???

Each thought was killing her, she had been with him over a couple of weeks now, but never thought this way. She knows there is something, but it was okay for her to know that he has feelings for her. But is it okay to have feelings for him? Falling on the couch she closed her teary eyes and fall asleep.

On the other hand Laksh fumed in anger. They are all selfish idiots. I did so much and never asked for anything just my name and not Lucky??!!? Do I look like someone who is lucky? I lost my whole family years back, then I found someone to spend my life with, but they had to ruin even this. If I hadn't seen Ragini's eyes of innocence and pain I would never stayed for this long.

"NEVER!" He hits with his palm on the backseat of the cab.

"Sorry," he immediately apologised for his actions.

Laksh reached his place, he didn't do anything but fall on the bed and slept for a long time.

Till his phone started to ring continuously.

"Who?" He yawned into the phone with his sleepy tone, "haan say?"

"Bro get up, it's time for a meeting. Did you forgot?"

Yes, he did. "Kev I'm not ready yet. I need 15 - 30 min."

"It's fine Laksh you got an hour. I know you won't make it in time so I wake you up with enough time to get ready and have some food."

"At least I have you, I don't need a wife. Maybe you and I?"

"Okay I think we need to talk, but not now. Get ready."

"Yes, honey."

Kev hang up the phone and Laksh had a great start into the meeting.

The meeting was at 2am Indian time, it was a big problem for him to deal with the time difference, but he handled it well thanks to his friend lawyer.

When the meeting was over he told Kev everything.

"Gosh, how mean they are. Well good you are out from there, how about returning home?"

Laksh shook his head, "no, I promised her to find him. I got the lab reports from the first DNA test I will meet the private detective in the morning. I will give him these in the hope he might find a clue."

They were on FaceTime.

"Kev?"

"Yeah," he looked and said it uninterested.

"I can see you."

The moment he realised it, he looked up innocently, "aww you aren't angry on your fake wife, aren't you?"

Laksh frowns, "what?"

"Oh right, she could be your real wife too..."

Laksh shook his head, "I figured out. She will never be mine. Anyways, I did a promise and will keep it. I will find him."

Both talked for awhile before Laksh ended it to get a rest of sleep.

The next morning came too fast, he didn't had enough time to fill his energy. No Laksh, you can't make them wait. You need to find him at any costs only then you can leave with the knowledge that you have tried your best. And she can find peace.

Ragini hasn't been able to sleep or eat, she was hiding in her room and avoiding any contact, it was terrible for her, she again felt lonely and abandoned, even if it wasn't his fault, but she was missing him each second, each minute of her life.

There was a knock on her door, "Ragini please come down, we are all waiting for you," Swara was standing there with a tray of food, "it's okay Ragini I will put the food on the floor. Please have it."

But there was no reply from Ragini, she had closer herself apart from all the others. They couldn't understand me in the hardest time of my lifespan and he, a stranger, figured me out in just a few weeks. They call themselves my family, but they don't know me. I don't sleep on the bed I rather sleep on the floor with nothing. I don't need their fake sympathy or care, they are doing it to make them feel better, for the repeating pain they cause me.

Laksh was continuously texting the private investigator, as the police was finally ready to help them.

• Let's meet, I have some information • PI [Private Investigator]

• That's great! I will come in company with the Police officer • LK

• great idea, we will need more than one! • PI

•What? Is there something to worry about? • LK

• it's better we meet and talk about it face to face • PI

• okay tell me, when and where should I meet you? • LK

• 3 Pm at Zulu Cafe, if you come with the police then only in civil clothes, got it? • PI

• Understood! • LK

It been weeks since Laksh identity was confirmed and he left MM. Ragini hasn't heard from him neither she received a message in any form.

I hope he is fine? She was in the kitchen, staying in the room was suffocating for her, she couldn't rest peacefully either the memories or the family would haunt her.

*ding ding ding ding*

"Uff who is this?" Sanskaar was annoyed by the continuous ringing.

"Coming!" He shouted, but it was Ragini who instantly took the way to the door, she opened it.

"Laksh?!" Her eyes were fixed on him.

"Laksh?!" The name was ringing in the ears of everyone, they rushed and found him.

"Yes, me. Laksh Khanna," his eyes were on Ragini, "I promised you to find him. It took me awhile, but..."

Ragini looked behind him, the eyes filled with tears, she moved backwards almost slipping the stairwell down.

"Ragini!" He hold her hand, but she jerked it off.

The police was right behind him with them was an ambulance, who carried out a dead body.

"What the hell is this?" DP raised his voice, "this can't be true!"

Laksh lowered his gaze, "excuse me. I had to keep my promise and I haven't completed it yet. If you don't mind I have to talk to her."

Laksh made his way, Ragini was sitting on the floor devastated, the tears couldn't be stopped, not even with the words of the others, she has lost him.

"You were right Ragini." The smoothness in his voice was somehow giving he hope, a new hope. She looked up, the red eyes were looking at him.

"He never left you."

Ragini couldn't understand him, "he didn't? Laksh is no more, my Lakshya is no more. He left me!" She shouted her heart out, "he is gone."

Laksh bend down to her, "yes, he is no more. But he hasn't left you, the way I thought. You were right, your love was right. He was forced to leave you."

They all looked at him.

"Inspector what is he saying. Is this even Lucky, can we trust his words. Words of a fraud," Sanskaar glared at him in anger.

"Mr. Sanskaar Maheshwari, he did everything to find the truth. Yes, the corpse you are seeing right there is Lakshya Maheshwari, we did a double check on this. The DNA of Mr. and Mrs. Maheshwari landed into the system, which helped us to identify Mr. Lakshya Maheshwari's dead."

The inspector looked at the private investigator, "maybe you should tell them, you found the clue."

The PI looked at them, "Mr. Khanna hired me immediately after he got falsely accused by you being Lakshya Maheshwari. He told me everything about him and his life, I got first hand informations right from the beginning and could verify him. I got the information about Lakshya Maheshwari from Mrs. Maheshwari, when they went out. I was spying on them, with the permission of Mr. Khanna."

Laksh wanted to hold her in his arms, he wanted to ease her pain and heal her unseen wounds, but he couldn't. He stayed there close yet so far.

"I researched the date of Mr. Maheshwari's disappearance and the last scene of him. I found that there were cctv's which weren't checked properly. I checked the dates of the days before and after the incident. The car was found by Mr. Sanskaar Maheshwari, well I found the driver. He was observing the scene often in the days and I got suspicious on him. I found and followed him."

"Yes, just a week back I was called by Laksh Khanna. He told me I should come in civil clothes not to gain any attention. I accepted his request and we met the PI at the Zulu Café."

"Ragini Please listen to me, he died because he wanted to redeem himself for the crime he did once."

Ragini looked at him, "which crime?"

"The crime his own brother forced him to do. He had curried drugs for a Don, and he was ready to testify him in the court to sentence him lifetime sentences."

"Laksh wanted to do it?"

Laksh K. nodded, "yes, your Laksh wanted to make it right. But before that he got killed by the men of the Don. Who got in contact with a guy named Karthik?"

Ragini widen her eyes, "Kavya, no Tanya's brother?" She said in shock.

"Yes, her brother. They both planned it together as Karthik is in the same jail, but he needs protection to get it he fled to the Don and told him everything as he still has an eye on the Maheshwari Family. He asked for protection for him and his sister," Laksh forwarded his hand, "he loved you truly, I'm sorry I couldn't bring him back alive. But I could wash his name off all dirt."

They looked at him, "what you mean?"

The Inspector told him, how they tricked the Drug Don with the Laksh Khanna, who pretended to be Lakshya Maheshwari, to get his confession.

"He will rot in jail and will soon get the death penalty for his crimes."

They all were shocked, no one could say or so anything.

"With the DNA test of the first lab reports we found him, I was confused how my DNA could match in first time. I asked Sanskaar to give it me only for the reason to find the lab and see the reports. They told me that the Sample was in the System from an unknown person they had found in the water. He was strangled to death and thrown into the river. The flow of the river carried him faraway, but some people found him it was too late and he was hold in the hospital. They took his DNA for further search of his family, but couldn't find any. When they got the DNA of Mr. & Mrs. DP Maheshwari, they did a cross checking, while mine didn't matched but Lakshya's did." He took out the real DNA report from the first lab, in which it was proved again, that he is Laksh Khanna.

"I'm sorry for your lost."

They left the dead body there to give the family their privacy and to do the last rites for him.

Laksh came too, to serve him his respect.

Ragini was sitting there lifeless, he felt the pain in his chest again, I wish to take you in my arms to give you the hold you need. But I'm not the one. I'm not...

He went upstairs and left an envelope for her on the desk.

"Laksh?" AP stopped him.

Laksh turned, "yes?"

AP looked at him, "I'm sorry, we were blind not to see the difference between you both. But my heart was sure it will be him. We ruined your wedding I hope you can forgive us someday?"

Laksh nodded, "it's fine. It wasn't meant to be that way. I will leave now, my home is waiting for me."

He left without looking back at her, she who had lost them both.

Days were passing by, one day after another Ragini was trying to live. She did before too, but that time she had hope, now she has only emptiness. It's been two months, Lakshya is cremated and Laksh is back, he hasn't contacted me once... maybe it's the best I have nothing for him and he gave me everything.

She was sitting on the windowsill watching the moonlight. He didn't said goodbye ... Goodbye Lakshya...

*Knock Knock*

Ragini wipes her tears away, "yes?"

"Ragini we are waiting, are you coming?"

Ragini frowns, "no, I'm fine. Really don't worry you enjoy." She was alone like before, she didn't went out neither she spend the time with them. Today is the birthday of her father, but since the incident took place she hasn't changed a word with Him. He doesn't need me neither he had ever wanted me. I have been a fool my entire life, and still I'm searching for love.

She took a deep breath and went to the bathroom, she took a bath and tried to forget everything. Why is he there when he isn't here?

Ragini tried to clam and relax, but she couldn't. The bath changed into a quick shower, she changed into her nightgown and checked on her phone. Look no messages, not even a miscall.

She hits with her palm on the desk, why I am even thinking of them?

There was a stump sound. She turned to see what it was, "what an envelope?" She bend down to pick it up.

Dear Ragini

Open it whenever you feel

Your Laksh

She felt the weight of her heart, what is this?
