Three months passed after their marriage. Sidharth and Shehnaaz's relationship was changed than earlier. They still could not become husband and wife but became very good friends. Shehnaaz again started having feelings for Sidharth but tried hard not to express it in front of him.

On the other hand, Sidharth knew about Shehnaaz's feelings but he also knew that he would never be able to love Shehnaaz like he loved Sana. He accepted that he had lost Sana and now she would never return to him but also determined to love only Sana till his last breath.

In spite of all the complicated situations, Sidharth and Shehnaaz were staying happily with each other. But one day something happened which changed everything between them.

It was Sidharth's office party. He took Shehnaaz with him as the employees were asked to bring their wives or husbands.

As soon as they entered holding hands, some people became shocked seeing Shehnaaz. They heard about Sana's demise. As Shehnaaz looked same like Sana, some people became confused for a moment.

Suddenly one of his colleagues came to greet him.

"Arrey Sidharth Bhai! Good to see you. Aur aap kaisi hai Sana bha....."

He suddenly stopped remembering about Sana's demise.

"Shehnaaz!" Corrected Sidharth.

"My wife." He said further to which Shehnaaz smiled blissfully.

"Sorry sorry... Ekdam se aap ko dekh ke laga jaise... Sana bhabi wapas aa gayi. Kehna padega aap dono behne bilkool ek jaisi dikhti hai.... Anyway, kaisi hai aap?"

Shehnaaz smiled slightly and said, "Thik hoon."

After that they met others as well. Some of them mistook Shehnaaz as Sana but everytime Sidharth corrected them. Shehnaaz's heart skipped a beat when he introduced her as his wife to his boss and colleagues. She started thinking that Sidharth had accepted her as his wife and one day he may reciprocate her feelings as well.

Shehnaaz blushed thinking that.

After sometime Sidharth became busy in talking with his male colleagues while Shehnaaz was talking with their wives standing little far from him.

"Waise jo bhi kaho, Shehnaaz Bhabhi ko dekh Sana Bhabhi ki yaad aa gayi." Said one of his colleagues to which Sidharth smiled sadly.

"Par Sidharth ek sach baat baatau? Humein nahi laga tha ki tu Sana Bhabhi ke chale jaate hi ekdam taurant dusri shaadi kar lega." Commented his another colleague.

Sidharth's expression changed hearing that.

"What do you mean?" He asked sternly.

"I mean, tu itna pyaar karta tha uss se. Aur do mahine ke andar tune dusri shaadi bhi kar liyi, hum sab ko thoda ajeeb laga sun ke. I know akele rehna muskil hota hai par uss hi ki judwa behen se shaadi kar liyi tune? Yeh toh dhoka hua na Sana Bhabhi ke saath?"

"Kya bol raha hai Nikhil? Yeh unka personal matter hai. Humein kya paata unhone kis situation mein yeh shaadi kiyi? We should not pass any comment." Said another colleague trying to control the situation as Sidharth was already fuming in anger hearing Nikhil's words.

"Arrey I am just curious." Said Nikhil laughing. "Accha Sidharth ek baat baata. Sach sach baatana. Teri aur Shehnaaz Bhabhi ki pehle se hi setting thi na? Isliye Sana Bhabhi ke jaate hi tum dono ka raasta clear ho gaya."

That was it. Sidharth couldn't control his anger anymore. He fisted his palm and punched so hard on his face that blood oozed out from the corner of his lips. Others became shocked by Sidharth's action.

"Bohut bakwas kar liya tune. Aage ek shabd bhi bola na toh tera woh haal karunga jo tu soch bhi nahi sakta." Said Sidharth gritting his teeth. His eyes were showing fire.

"Saale teri himmat kaise hui?"

Saying that Nikhil hold Sidharth and Sidharth hold Nikhil's collar as well. Others tried to stop their fight.

Shehnaaz and other wives noticed that there was something wrong and went to him.

"Sidharth kya kar rahe hai? Shaant ho jaiye please." Said Shehnaaz trying to pull his hand.

Nikhil's wife also tried to stop her husband.

Soon a guy separated both of them and said, "Stop it guys! Office ki party hai yeh. Agar Boss ko paata chal gaya toh bohut badi problem ho jaayegi."

Sidharth and Nikhil stopped hearing that. Shehnaaz was rubbing Sidharth's shoulder to calm him down. Thankfully they were standing at a corner, away from the other guests, so nobody came to know about this fight.

"It's my last warning Nikhil. Sana mere liye kya thi yeh mujhe kisi aur ko baata ne ki zaroorat nahi hai. Par humare rishte ko le kar koi teesra galat comments pass kare, yeh main tolerate nahi karunga." Said Sidharth angrily threatening Nikhil.

"Arrey jaa jaa. Sach na humesha kadwa hota hai. Aur sach yeh hai ki tu apni wife ke towards loyal nahi reh paaya. Agar rehta toh itni zaldi shaadi nahi karta. Aaya bada pyaar ke daave karne wala. Hatt!"

Saying that Nikhil left there with his wife.

Shehnaaz looked at Sidharth who was standing there numb. He clenched his jaw and fist to control his emotions.

"Sidharth aap...."

Before Shehnaaz could say, Sidharth freed his hand from her and left the party angrily.

Shehnaaz was puzzled. She asked others about the matter and they told her everything. Hearing that, she understood the reason behind his anger. And also understood that he was hurt. A third person questioned his love for Sana. No matter what people say, Shehnaaz knew how much he loved Sana. He didn't marry her willingly, he was forced. After marrying he never gave Sana's place to her. And here people were questioning his loyalty. Shehnaaz felt bad for him.

She came outside and found that Sidharth had already left the party with his car. Shehnaaz booked a cab and went home. She knew that at this moment, Sidharth needed her the most.

At Home...

Sidharth was continuously drinking alcohol while thinking about the words Nikhil said to him. He was in immense pain and crying continuously while drinking.

"Kya Nikhil sach keh raha tha? Kya main Sana ke towards loyal nahi hoon? Kya maine Shehnaaz se shaadi kar ke galti kar di? Dhokha diya meri Sana ko?" He asked himself while crying.

He finished the whole bottle and said, "Par main kya karta? Maa ne kasam de diya tha. Unki khushi ke liye maine Shehnaaz se shaadi kar liyi. Lekin Sana, mere dil mein aaj bhi sirf tum hi ho. Log chahe kuch bhi bole, maine tumhare alawa kabhi kisi se pyaar nahi kiya, aur naa hi kabhi kar paaunga. Haan halaton ki wajah se aaj Shehnaaz meri wife hai, meri responsibility hai, aur ab ek acchi dost bhi ban gayi hai. Par mera pyaar sirf tum ho Sana, sirf tum."

He opened another bottle and started gulping the alcohol fast. By then, Sana had reached home. She ran to his room but stopped at the door. Her heart ached seeing Sidharth in this miserable state.

After finishing another bottle, his eyes fell on Shehnaaz. Seeing her, he wiped his tears and a beautiful smile appeared on his face.

"Tum waha kyu khadi ho? Mere paas aao." Said Sidharth in a drunk voice forwarding his hand towards Shehnaaz who was also crying standing at the door seeing his condition. His eyes had turned red because of crying continuously and consuming too much alcohol.

"Aao na." He again said almost crying.

Shehnaaz couldn't see him in pain anymore. She slowly went towards the bed and sat beside him.

He caressed her face lovingly and said, "Mera yakeen karo. Main tumse bohut pyaar karta hoon."

Shehnaaz lost her power to think anything as his touch was affecting her. She closed her eyes feeling his touch.

He kissed her both cheeks sucking her teardrops.

"Don't you love me?" He asked huskily.

"I love you." Replied Shehnaaz with closed eyes.

As soon as she said this, Sidharth took her lips.

"Ab main tumhe kahi jaane nahi dunga Sana."

Thinking that he kissed Shehnaaz more passionately while imagining Sana at her place.

Shehnaaz got the taste of alcohol when Sidharth's tongue started exploring every corner of her mouth. Her mind stopped working completely. Her emotions overpowered her. She forgot that he was drunk. All she could see that he was in pain. She wanted to take out all his pain and love him endlessly.

Shehnaaz locked her hands around his neck and reciprocated the kiss as much as she could.

Sidharth pulled Shehnaaz in his lap without breaking the kiss. He was kissing her so deeply as if he would die if he didn't kiss her.

After sometime Shehnaaz tried to break the kiss as she needed to breath but he was nowhere to stop. When he finally broke the kiss, he found Shehnaaz breathing heavily with closed eyes.

Sidharth then made her lay on thr bed and removed the saree from her body. Before she could understand anything, Sidharth removed his own shirt and hovered over her.

Shehnaaz looked straight into his eyes and found desire. She cupped his face with her soft hand and sucked his lips gently.

"I love you." Uttered Sidharth and Shehnaaz felt herself as the luckiest person on earth.

"And I want to make love to you." He said further huskily while thinking that he was talking to Sana.

Shehnaaz blushed hard hearing his words and Sidharth chuckled seeing her face. He started giving wet kisses on her neck.

She bit her lips to control her moans but failed when he bit there.

"Sidharth..." She moaned and he sucked that place softly.

He then opened the knot of her blouse to which she wrapped her hands around his back and hid herself in his chest being embarrassed. But Sidharth continued doing his work. Soon all the clothes were removed from their bodies.

He started kissing every inch of her body while she was moaning his name. She felt another kind of pleasure when he kissed her collarbone, sucked her breasts and gave butterflies kisses around her belly button. His lips were doing magic on her body. She was ready to become his and submitting herself completely to him. Her heart and soul already belonged him but today he also marked her body as his.

Soon Sidharth positioned himself in her entrance and whispered, "Main sirf tumhara hoon Sana. I love you and will always do."

Hearing that Shehnaaz immediately opened her eyes. She got her sense back. She realised that he was thinking her as Sana. He would regret it next morning. But before she could react, Sidharth again kissed her lips and entered inside her.

Tears came out of Shehnaaz's eyes because of pain. But the pain was more in her heart rather than her body. He was making love to her while thinking her as Sana. It was most painful experience one could go though.

"Sana.... I..... Love.... You....Phir kabhi....Mujhse.....Dur.....Mat jaana." He said with each thrusts which pierced her heart like a knife.

She couldn't stop him from doing this. She hold him tightly, dug her nails in his skin while crying silently. Her heart broke completely.

After making love, Sidharth became tired and fell asleep putting his all weight on her.

After sometime, Shehnaaz pushed him away with much difficulty and then sat up covering her naked body with the duvet.

She looked at his sleeping face with teary eyes. She realised that day she became his in all sense but he couldn't be hers. He was near her, yet so far.  Maybe after this incident, she would lose him completely. Maybe he would start hating her again. But this night would always remain precious in her heart. Maybe he would also remember this night forever.

Only the difference was, for her it would be one of the most beautiful memories of her while for him it would be one of the biggest mistakes of his life.
