A/n - Shivika will soon come, but first all the drama needs to end, long chapter ahead.

..

..

Story continues from when Anika was telling about how she saved OmRu "We tested the chemicals you added in OmRu's drinks. After consulting with a specialist I started feeding them medicines along with their dinner and your Fake Dadi's special shock machine was just a toy after my arrival."

Swetlana was crying due to pain as Anika was still pulling her hair "Dinner? How? When did you arrive?"

Anika left Swetlana's hair from her grip and stepped back "Oh don't worry, I'm in a good mood so I'll just show you."

Swetlana looked at her in confusion, what was she trying to do, is she going to a fancy dress competition, if not then why was she taking out weird things from her bag. But when she took out Shanno's glasses, dentures and placed them on her eyes and teeth, nobody had to tell Swetlana that fancy dress competition was happening right under their noses but they were not aware about it.

Tia and Swetlana's face paled at this revelation, both were looking at Anika like she is eigth wonder of the world.  They never expected this level of planning from Annika and Gang. Anika was living with them from so many days and they did not doubt her intentions at all, they have to accept that she played her cards really well.

Shivaay looked at Anika, what was she trying to prove but Rudra explained it in few words "Anika Didi was living in OM from past 1.5 months as Shanno." Shivaay wanted to laugh loudly, her crazy ideas have gone up a notch but he controlled and asked the main question on his mind "Anika, tum in dono ko medicines kyu de rahi thi?" (Why were you giving them medicines?)

Annika shook her head, she noticed a small smile playing on his lips after listening about Shanno and she cannot be the cause to wipe it off immediately "Kuch zaruri nahi hai, main baad mein bataungi" (Nothing important, I'll tell you later)

Dadi walked towards Anika, she knows she is trying to reduce his guilt but it's better to tell him everything or it will be hard for him in future "Nahi puttar, Billu ko pata hona chahiye ki tune humein kaise bachaya aur inn Kapoors ko bhi pata chalna chahiye ki galat logo ko kaise haraya jata hai" (No dear, Billu should know about how you saved all of us and these Kapoors should also know how bad people are punished for their sins)

Rudra and Om started telling about how Anika found them and how she helped in improving their condition. Dadi also told about her kidnapping days and Annika's role in saving her from death. Pinky narrated about everything Annika and Gauri did after coming to the mansion.

Shivaay heard everything, he could only think about the days when he behaved rudely with her but she risked everything to save his family. He dropped on his knees and wailed loudly "I'm sorry everyone, My One mistake destroyed my life and my family's life too. I am not a good son, all this happened because of me. I should've have listened to Anika but I insulted her so much but she came back to help everyone."

He started walking away from everyone "I should stay away from you all. Annika helped everyone after I insulted her so many times; thank you so much Annika for saving my family." He kept on crying and blabbering something or the other.

All family members tried to pacify him but he pushed all of them away and jumped to grab a knife from nearby table to harm himself. Anika came forward to control his outburst, she held his hand tigtly and twisted it to make him drop that knife. He was too weak for a girl trained in Martial arts and gave up on that idea.

Shivaay dropped down in Anika's feet "Let me die Anika, I don't deserve to live. Don't be so good to me. Anika Main tumse nazrein bhi nahi mila sakta, meri wajah se sab barbaad ho gaya. Maine tumhe kitna torture kia, phir bhi tumne meri family ke liye kitna kuch kia. Main acha insaan nahi hu Anika, I don't deserve your goodness" (Shivaay dropped down in Anika's feet and held them while saying "Let me die Anika, I don't deserve to live. Don't be so good to me. Anika, I'm not able to face you, everything is destroyed because of me. I tortured you so much but you helped my family. I'm not a good man, I don't deserve your goodness")

Annika tried to hold him off but he was not ready to leave her feet, he started hyperventilating and almost ran out of breath. Everyone was helplessly looking at them; finding no solution Anika placed a hard slap on his face to wake him up from that breakdown but he started slapping himself vigorously "I deserve this, beat me more or give me that knife, I will kill myself".

Shivaay was getting out of control and also getting a panic attack. Anika found no solution and then she did the the unthinkable. She thought "Anika soch matt zyada, bas aankh band kar aur kar de" ("Anika don't think about it too much, just close your eyes and do it.") She stopped thinking practically for a moment because he needs her and she knows that this meltdown can affect him adversely.

Anika looked at everyone, they were waiting for her to do something but they choked on their breath because they were not expecting what she did next.

Anika cupped his face with both hands, Shivaay looked at her in confusion but then she slammed her lips on his, earning some gasps from her audience.

Shivaay got surprised and stopped blabbering when he felt her movements, she was sucking his lips deeply and whenever he tried to say something she bit him harshly to stop his rant. After some minutes, his uneven breathing started to get normal but his breath hitched again when he realised that Anika was kissing him in everyone's presence.

Family's jaw was about to touch the ground, they know that Anika is bolder than before but this was a little too much for their already weak hearts. 

Finally Rudra decided to take the matters into his own hands because both of them were not ready to back off "If there are no more revelations left, should we all go inside? As much as I ship Shivika but this PDA is way too much for my taste"

All the family members nodded in agreement, Rudra's dialogue did the trick, Anika stepped back and cleared her throat. Shivaay was calm now, he was breathing unevenly but now the reason was totally different. He looked at Anika and frowned in confusion, he has never noticed such cold expressions on her face, what happened to her suddenly. Wasn't she the same girl who was sucking his face like her favourite fruit, Mango? She was always the one who expressed her emotions between the two but when did she learn to mask them perfectly with her cold eyes.

Anika had a stern face on but the inner turmoil was too much to handle. She was cursing herself, she made a decision earlier that she will be distant with him but now she kissed him in front of everyone and the worst part is that she enjoyed the feeling of his lips. She wanted him to respond but why now, but she cannot go down the rabbit hole yet again. A new turmoil of feelings started inside her but she was not ready to look for any answers at that moment, so she ignored everyone's curious eyes and focused on SweTia.

Anika POV: Damnit why did I do it? What got into me? I think it was due to pity. He has faced a lot of trouble but it is hard for me to forgive him for what he has done in the past. He has always hated me for my class difference and never trusted me when I told him about Tia and now his family also suffered due to his stupid decisions. But let me settle score with these Kapoor sisters, then I will deal with him

(Anika has turned very practical due to all the hardships faced by her in last four years, now she likes to keep emotions away from her)

Shivaay looked at her distant body language and understood that she is not ready to discuss it, so he turned towards the bane of his existence "Tia ye sab kyu kia? Agar tumhe paise chahiye the toh mujhe batati par tumne Oberoi Family ko barbaad kyu kia?" (Tia, why did you do this? If you wanted money, you could've asked me, why did you destroy our life?)

Tia was suddenly bubbling in anger, such innocent faces, they deserve worse than this torture "Seedhi si baat hai, tumhare pariwar ne humein barbaad kia aur hum logo ne tumhe" (It's simple; your family destroyed our life, so my family destroyed yours)

Everyone looked at them in confusion, when did they destroy these girls? Everybody shrugged their shoulders, they have never met these girls before their first formal meeting with them.

Tej also shrugged his shoulders and Swetlana scoffed at him "Tej Singh Oberoi, are you trying to say that you don't remember me? I'm happy to inform you that everything is happening because of you."

Everyone glared at Tej, he has offended many people and now all his bad karma has come back to bite him and they were dragged in the mess without any fault.

Tej was dying with guilt, did everything happen because of him, but why can't he remember these girls. He stepped back from his family and stumbled lightly but no one came forward in his support. He knows he deserves this treatment, all his family members were treated worse than slaves because of his mistakes. He was about to stumble again but the most unexpected hand came in his support, Anika rushed towards him and to everyone's amazement, she hugged him tightly and patted his back to calm him down.

Tej folded his hands in front of Anika, but she held his hands and shook her head to say no, finally Tej broke down in her arms. She kept rubbing his back and handled him just like she handled OmRu. This was a sight that nobody expected, Tej Singh Oberoi was a crying mess and Anika was consoling him like a kid.

Swetlana hauled him away from Anika and she was about to attack him but Anika pushed her away "Talk with your mouth, I will not mind some bloodshed if you will try to touch my uncle."

Tej looked at Anika with unknown emotions, when his family gave up on him, this girl was stood up like a wall between him and his enemies. Swetlana stepped back and growled at him " Tej, tumhe Mr. Rajesh Kapoor toh yaad hi honge? (Tej do you remember Mr Rajesh Kapoor? We are his family)

Tej sighed in sadness "Haan wo mera bahut acha dost tha par uska end bade hi bure tareeke se hua, pata nahi uski do betiyaan.... (Tej sighed in sadness and said "Yes, he was a very good friend, but his end was tragic. I don't know about his two daughters....")

Tej realised something and his eyes widened in shock, he somehow managed to mutter "Nahi Nahi...tum dono Swati aur Riya nahi ho sakti..Swetlana ye kya kara dia tumne, meri bachi jaisi thi tum. What the hell is wrong with you?" (Tej realised something and his eyes widened in shock, he somehow managed to uttered "No..noo...Don't tell me that you both are Swati and Riya? What did you make me do Swetlana, you were like my kid")

Swetlana again tried to attack him but a petite girl was too much for her to handle. She stepped back defeatedly and spat on the floor "Apna drama band karo, tumne hi mere Dad ko mara tha" (Stop with your drama, you were the one who killed my Dad!!)

Tej shook his head and looked at all his family members, why were they listening to her nonsensical talks. He turned towards Anika, maybe she is also disgusted with him, but to his surprise, she was still holding his arm and trying to calm him down. He held her hand and looked at her pleadingly  "Anika, I have wronged many people in my life but believe me beta I have not killed anyone, Rajesh was my best friend and these two girls were like my own kids. Tell me beta, you believe me, I'm not a murderer"

Anika nodded her head and squeezed his hand to assure him that she believes everything. He smiled between his tears, now he knows that she will set everything straight for him but Swetlana yelled again "Tej, you might have fooled this girl but I know your true colors and I will show them to the whole world."

Tej looked hopefully at Anika, but he stepped back a little, she was looking really scary with that evil smirk playing on her lips. Now he was assured that Swetlana's will soon be at her mercy. Anika patted his arm and she walked towards Swetlana "Tej uncle ne jo Jhanvi Aunty ke saath kia wo mujhe acha toh nahi lagta, par ek baad yaad rakho jo bhi tum bol rahi ho wo sahi nahi hai" (As much as I don't like Tej uncle for betraying Jhanvi Aunty, but get one thing in your head that he did no such thing)

Swetlana looked at her angrily, why is this girl trying to protect a criminal but then she realised something and she wanted that realisation to be wrong. She has observed Anika many times and she knows that this girl will never support a criminal. Why she was getting a feeling that all the revelations after this will destroy her life.

Anika smirked at her "Mere kehne ka matlab hai ki Tej Uncle ne Mr. Kapoor ko nahi mara hai" (It means he was not the one who killed Mr. Kapoor). She looked at the vile woman who was hiding behind others from a long time "Mrs. Kapoor, why did you hide after seeing Tej uncle?"

Mrs Kapoor started hyperventilating and sweating badly, she was breathing heavily and about to faint. Tia hurried towards her "Mommmm...ye kya ho gaya apko? (Mommmm, what happened to you?)"

Swetlana also rushed towards her and both of them held her tightly but Annika gave a nonchalant expression while picking up a glass of water. All her supporters know what was coming next and then it happened, she poured the whole glass on Mrs Kapoor's face and to everyone's amazement she instantly became normal.

Annika dropped the glass on groud and pulled her up "If your drama is over then start talking, I don't have whole day"

When Tej finally noticed her face, his eyes went wide, he recognised her immediately, before he could say anything, Mrs Kapoor stammered "Yyess..yes Tej Singh Oberoi killed my husband Rajesh Kapoor"

Tej shook his head in anger "This woman is a bloody liar, I will kill her with my bare hands. She is a fraud"

Annika pulled him back and patted his shoulder "Chill Tej uncle... Mrs Kapoor or I must say Mrs Saha won't you say the truth?" Mrs Kapoor still wanted to delay the obvious so Anika turned away from her "Somu and Chanda can you help us as she is not looking interested"

Saumya nodded her head happily "Sure di, bahut der se chup reh k bore ho gayi thi main" (Sure, keeping quiet for so long is not my thing)

Chanda also joined her "Main bhi... Ek interesting story sunati hu sabko" (Same here... Now let me tell you all an interesting story)

Anika turned around and she looked towards the door "Mishra ji, humare special mehmaan ko bhi toh leke aao" (Mishra, bring our special guest inside)

Mishra brought in a man and pushed him to walk ahead, entry of that man told Mrs Kapoor that her game was finally over.

Saumya indicated towards the man "Meet Mr. Jayant Saha, he was a registrar of marriages in Delhi."

Chanda showed everyone an old family picture "He has one more introduction, meet the brother in law of Mrs Kapoor, Mr Jayant Saha brother of late Mr. Vinay Saha"

During their group call in cafe, Annika asked Chanda to track a registrar of marriage and Somu helped her in hacking his computer. After giving some proper treatment to Registrar and Somu's hacking techniques they came to know about the reality of Mrs Kapoor.

Mrs Kapoor was already in love and married to a man named Vinay Saha, but Vinay Saha did not have the thing that Mrs Kapoor liked the most "Money". Both made a plan for easy money and she married Mr Kapoor again for his property and fame. Tia and Swetlana were Mr Kapoor's daughters from his first wife, she passed away when both were toddlers so they don't have any memory and Mrs Kapoor made sure that after her arrival all traces of their birth mother vanished completely. 

The registrar caught by Saumya and Chanda accepted that he is Vinay's brother and he helped Mrs Kapoor in registering her fraudulent marriage with Mr Kapoor and then Mrs Kapoor somehow started transferring all properties in her name.

Tej and Rajesh Kapoor were very good friends, Tej came to know about all this and he told Mr. Kapoor, first Mr. Kapoor was not ready to accept the truth but Tej showed him proofs and took him to Vinay Saha's place where Mrs. Kapoor was also present. 

Tej and Mr Kapoor started beating Vinay Saha and to save himself he ran out of the house where he accidently rushed into a truck and died on spot.

Mrs Kapoor vowed to destroy Tej and Rajesh Kapoor to avenge Vinay's death, later she killed Mr. Kapoor and lit Kalyani Mills on fire to frame Tej as she never got a chance to kill him, but instead of getting ruined Oberoi Family got insurance money and became richer. She ran away from Mumbai with both girls.

Later, in some marriage she saw Tej enjoying with his family and created a plan to destroy him along with his family so that she can get all his wealth too, she started manipulating Tia and Swetlana against Oberoi family from that day onwards and told them to trap Tej and Shivaay.

(In my story Mrs Kapoor never revealed herself to Tej, not even when they came back from captivity; she was the one who hid her face when Tej entered OM.)

FB ends

Tia couldn't believe what Saumya and Chanda told everyone, was it all fake? Was this the reason that her mother never cared about their feelings? Were they really such big idiots?

Tia went ahead and held Mrs Kapoor's hand "Nahi nahi ye sach kaise ho sakta hai, ap humari Mom ho na? Please ek baar bol do ye sab jhooth hai (Nooo..this cannot be true. You are our mom, right? Please say it once that all this is a lie)

Swetlana was still trying to process that they were helping the murderer of their father, but her heart wants all this to be a lie "Please say this is not the truth. Nooo you can't kill our father, you love us, right?"

Both girls tried to hold Mrs Kapoor's hands but she pushed them away and looked at them with hatred "Bewkoof baap ki bewkoof betiyan, ye log sach bol rahe hain toh bhi tumhe jhooth lag raha hain. Haan maine hi tumhare pyaare Papa ko pehle dhoka dia aur phir maar dia, kya kar loge tum log? (Both girls tried to hold Mrs Kapoor's hands she pushed both of them away and looked at them with hatred and mocked them Foolish daughters of a foolish father, they're saying the truth but you don't want to accept it. Yes I was the one who killed your father, what will you all do?)

Mrs Kapoor lunged towards Annika and grabbed her throat "Agar ye ladki nahi hoti toh main Tej Singh Oberoi ko bhi barbaad kar deti, Maar daalongi main isse (Mrs Kapoor lunged towards Annika and grabbed her throat "If not for this girl I would have destroyed Tej Singh Oberoi as well, I will kill her")

Anika smirked at Mrs Kapoor as she looked happy that she was still holding her throat. Anika indicated her to look back, as soon as she turned, everything went numb for a second when a forceful punch landed on her face. She gained back her composure but  soon she was gifted with more blows on her face.

AGCS laughed at Mrs Kapoor, she was still trying to guess the direction of next punch, before she could react another one gets added from other side. Finally they stopped the punch fest and Anika slapped her harshly "This is the best thing we have learnt in Delhi, mukke maarne mein alag hi maza hai lekin end humesha chaante se karo, iska satisfaction his alag hai" (This is the best thing we have learnt in Delhi, it's fun to punch someone but it's a great feeling to end it with a slap)

Khanna brought in the cops for arresting FD and Mrs Kapoor but FD suddenly started laughing and crying loudly while doing some weird actions. Everybody thought that she is doing drama but Anika threw a pack of medicines towards the Sub-Inspector.

OF was looking weirdly at Anika, did she stoop to their level and harmed FD like this? Anika ignored everyone and walked towards Dadi "Sorry, ye aurat aapki behen hain, lekin main inhe aise nahi jaane de sakti. Inki himmat kaise hui mere OmRu ko torture karne ki" (Sorry Dadi, she is you sister but I cannot excuse her for what she did with my OmRu)

Dadi looked at her with horrified expressions, she really did it, what has happened to their sweet bubbly Anika? 

Anika ignored everyone's expressions and she turned towards the Inspector "Teen char mahine baad ye medicine start kar dena, kuch time mein sahi hone lagegi. Tab takk agar zyada pagalpan karein toh inke hi special Doctor sahab ne kaha hai ki paglo ko shock treatment deni chahiye, ap bhi wahi kar sakte hain" (Inspector, start these medicines after two or three months, she will start getting better. If she behaves madly then feel free to give her shock treatment as advised by her Special personal doctor)

Dadi tried to hold her hand but Anika stepped back, she looked at them sternly but she couldn't control it more and laughed while shaking her head "Stop looking at me like I'm a criminal, this lady is fully responsible for her own condition."

Anika held Dadi's hands and she explained "Dadi, maine itne saalo mein yehi seekha hai ki bina sabak sikhaye kisi ko maaf nahi karna chahiye, warna wo sochte hain ki hum weak hain. Aur maine inko kuch nahi kia hai, ye khud hi apni halat ki zimmedar hai" (Grandma, I have learned in all these years that we should never forgive people without teaching them a lesson, otherwise they think that its our weakness. Moreover I didn't do anything; she is responsible for her plight)

Everyone frowned in confusion and Anika told them the story how karma came to bite this woman's a*ss "Sab karmo ka nateeja hai. Yahan aane se pehle ye kisi gunde ko dhokha dekar bhaagi thi. Kuch din pehle inke liye bahut saare dryfruits aur chocolates deliver hui thi, ye gift samajh kar roz thoda thoda khaati rahi. Kal hum log inka samaan check kar rahe the, tab mujhe laga ki dryfruits mein kuch gadbad hai, check karwaya toh almost waisa hi drug tha jo ye sab log OmRu ko khila rahe the. Aj mere informer ne bataya ki ye sab ussi gunde ne badla lene ke liye bheja tha" (Pinky Aunty, its all her Karma that's coming back to bite her. Before coming here she conned a local goon. Some days ago many packs of dry fruits and chocolates were delivered in her name; she thought they were gifts from someone so she started eating them regulary. Yesterday we were checking her belongings, those chocolates and dry fruits looked weird. When they were tested we came to know that it contained a similar drug which they were feeding to OmRu. Today I was informed that the same goon sent all those things for his revenge)

Shakti looked at FD who was behaving like a spoilt brat while getting dragged by cops "Pehle toh sahi thi, achanak se hi aisa kyu hua?" (She was fine earlier, why did it happen suddenly)

Anika showed him some reports "Drugs ka effect dheere dheere ho raha tha, lekin abhi Police ko dekh kar jhatka lag gaya, isliye shayad aise react kar rahi hai. OmRu ko bhi pehla reaction tabhi hua tha jab inn dono ne Shivaay ke kidnap hone ki news suni thi" (Those drugs were were effecting her gradually but she got shocked due to the arrival of cops, maybe that's why she reacted like this. OmRu also had their first reaction when they came to know about Shivaay's kidnapping)

Anika looked at Tia and Swetlana, they were standing with guilty faces; they were unknowingly fraternizing with the enemy and punishing the people who were not at fault. Both were ashamed of their act and pleaded everyone to forgive them.

Family members decided to give SweTia a chance to repent for their mistakes as they are Tej's friend's daughters, but there was one person who has seen all the tortured souls first hand and she was not in a mood to give them an easy pass.

Anika placed a hard slap on Tia's face; Swetlana was about to say something but she held her throat harshly. She kept placing slaps on Tia's face and held Swetlana's throat with the other one. Gauri was holding Swetlana's hands at her back so that she cannot attack Anika. SweTia were pleading to spare them, but today wasn't the day for mercy.

Family members stepped forward to release them from angry clutches of Anika but OmRu stopped them, they are also not in the favour to forgive them. Shivaay was looking at Anika to understand all the raw emotions she was showing, but couldn't dare to stop her; it was looking like she will burn anything that will come in her path.

Swetlana was about to faint but Rudra stepped towards Anika and held her shoulder to calm her down. She looked back in anger, her angry eyes turned soft after seeing her baby brother there but suddenly she saw flashes of Rudra behaving like a baby, Dadi roaming on streets like beggar and Om trying to cut his nerves. She again increased her hold on Swetlana's neck.

Seeing her getting out of control, Om also stepped forward, he placed a hand on her head and caressed it to calm her down. She looked at her both brothers and hugged them tightly "I'm sorry OmRu, I was not there when you needed me, I cannot let them go away so easily"

Om caressed her head lovingly and she rested her head on his chest while sobbing in his embrace "Anika, please shant ho jao, ab sab kuch sahi ho gaya hai" (Anika please calm down, everything is fine now)

Ru also stepped ahead, he patted her back proudly "Sahi hua nahi hai, Anika Didi apne sahi kia hai sab kuch. Apko sorry kehne ki zarurat nahi hai" (Everthing did not get fine on its own, you have done it, There is no need to say sorry to us)

Anika calmed down after OmRu consoled her for some time and her lawyer handed some papers. She shoved those papers in Tia's hands and glared at them angrily "SIGN THEM"
