As the evening crept the birthday celebration starts with hustle and bustle. The mansion was well decorated with light, flowers and balloons. All their relatives, friends and guests were came at the Shekhawat mansion including press and media too.

Randhir get ready quickly wearing his three piece armani suit and was waiting for Sanyukta impatiently when Parth came there.

"So you ready, okay let's go." Parth said checking himself on the mirror.

"What let's go! Am waiting for Sanyukta, saath mein jayenge." Randhir said surprisingly.

"Sorry to burst your happy bubble bro but bade papa ne hume aabhi party mein jane ke liye kaha hain, wo foreign delegates ko welcome karne ke liye." Parth informed him.

"What watchman hu keya jo welcome karunga!" Randhir said annoyingly.

"Wo tu bade papa se jake puch le." Parth said playfully when Randhir made a face but became agreed.

"Okay tu jaa am coming." Randhir said halfheartedly when Parth left for the party.

Rajveer was talking with the foreign delegates when Parth was looking at the entrance impatiently and finally his wait came to an end as Roja entered wearing a red gown. Parth flashed a bright smile to see her and went near her.

"Har baar main yehi sochta hu ke aaj tumhe dekh kar main surprise nehi hunga but har baar tum mujhe shock dene mein successful ho jati ho!" Parth said playfully when Roja smiled.

"Main vi har baar yehi sochti hu ke aaj aap mujhse flirt nehi karenge but har baar aap aur jyada flirt karte ho." Roja said teasingly thus Parth rolled his eyes.

"Isse romantic hona kahete hain flirt karna nehi." Parth smirked at her thus she blushed.

"Hai, sharmati tum ho aur dil mera ruk jata hain!" Parth said affectionately when she flashed more.

Randhir came to the party grabbing everyone's eyeballs and media attention as they were expecting his wife and the birthday girl to grace his side but he came alone there. He approached the foreign delegates when taking glances of the stairs time to time.

"Where are you birthday girl!" He said that in mind taking another glance of the stairs.

Randhir was discussing some trivial business talks when he heard some gasped as the Shekhawat's daughter in law came to the party flashing a beautiful smile along with her father in law. Randhir turned around to heard the gasped and his jaw dropped next looking at the scenario in front of him. Wrapping herself in a blood red saree with night black border along with her mangalsutra in her neck she was looking like a killer. She did her long hair a little curly and left them free when a pair of diamond earring added four moon in her beauty. Randhir for the second time skipped a beat to saw his gorgeous wife.

"Ladies and gentlemen today is my beautiful daughter-in-law Sanyukta's birthday. Thank you very much to came and join in our happiness. Please enjoy." Harsh said thus everyone clapped when media already started taking the snaps.

"Wow she is looking absolutely stunning, just gorgeous man." Randhir was looking at Sanyukta affectionately when he heard some pretty adjectives for her and the possessive husband inside him came out. He went towards Sanyukta thus she smiled at him when he took out her mangalsutra and placed that over her saree make it visible for everyone when she looked at him curiously.

"Now you looks perfect." He said with satisfaction when she smiled.

"You know what jealous husband are the most cutest husband." She whispered and smiled at him when he became tongue tied.

"But you don't have to be jealous as am all yours. Don't you have trust on me?" She whispered when he smiled.

"I have full trust on you wifey but I can't help to saw the hitted gazes of people towards you." He said and wrapped his arms around her waist to show his right on her in front of everyone.

"Happy birthday Sanyu." Anju, Kishor ji, Ankit and Sneha came and wished her when Sanyukta hugged her mother.

"Miss you maa." She said when Anju smiled brightly.

"Happy birthday Sanyu." Kanika came and hugged her thus Sanyukta smiled brightly.

"Aare beta what are you doing come let's cut the cake." Harsh said thus Sanyukta nodded positively and went there.

There was a beautiful heart shaped cake kept on the center glass table with "Happy Birthday Sanyukta" written on it. Sanyukta looked at the cake and smiled brightly. She blow the candles and cut the cake when everyone started clapping. She took the first piece of the cake and forwarded at Randhir who smiled brightly. Sanyukta feed him the cake when Randhir feed her back when Arpita was burning to saw the scenario in front of her.

The party was going well when Randhir approached Sanyukta for dancing and she happily agreed. They went to the dance floor and started dancing with a romantic song.

"Last weekend aur iss weekend mein kitna kuch similar hain na! Last weekend hum tumhare birthday par dance kar rahe thay aur iss weekend mere birthday par." Sanyukta smiled dreamily.

"Similarities ke saath saath kuch differences vi hain. Last week sirf main tumhe I love you bolta tha but iss week tum vi mujhe I love you bol rahi ho." Randhir said teasingly.

"But I toh don't love you!" Sanyukta smirked naughtily thus Randhir rolled his eyes.

"Ohh really, then I think I should go to Natasha. Usse aabhi vi wo kiss chahiye!" Randhir said mockingly when Sanyukta frowned dangerously.

"Then I'll give you divorce and snatch your half property for sure." She threatened him when he smiled brightly.

"Property keya aapni puri zindegi tumhare naam kar dunga bass ek baar bol kar toh dekho." He said lovingly when she blushed.

"I don't need your property Randhir as you are my real treasure. I love you." She whispered when he smiled brightly.

"I love you too." He said and they continue their dance like this way.

Parth was stood in a corner and was checking the time continuosly when Roja noticed that and came near him.

"What happened sir you look tensed, anything serious?" She asked curiously when Parth nodded a no.

"No D'Souza, I was just waiting for the chief guest of the party. Maine call kiya tha unka flight land ho chuka hain, they are on the way from the airport." Parth replied.

"I hope your plan worked." Roja said nervously.

"It'll work." Parth assured her and went from there. Arpita was sipping her cocktail when Parth approached her.

"So ready for your surprise?" Parth asked mischievously when Arpita rolled her eyes.

"You know what Parth tum iss universe ke aakhri insan honge jiski surprise dekhne mein mera koi interest hain!" Arpita twisted her lips.

"Dekh lo keya pata interest aah jaye. Aur yeh vi ho sakta hain ke iss surprise ke baad tumhara life hi change ho jaye!" Parth said mockingly.

"Ohh really, keya surprise hain Ron ko sab kuch saach saach bata doge! It won't work." She smirked at him.

"Arpita you still stuck with that. Aare main surprise ki baat kar raha hu old stories ki nehi! And I know in this case Randhir won't believe me that's why am not trying to make him believe anymore. Am just trying to find a solution for this problem and finally I found that." He said firmly when Arpita looked at him confusingly.

"What do you mean?" She asked confusingly.

"I mean your surprise is here, just turned around." Parth said thus Arpita crocked her eyes but turned around and became froze to saw the person in front of her.

"Grandpa!" Arpita became shocked to saw her grandfather there.

"Be ready to leave this house as well as the country forever Arpita." Parth said when smirked devilishly.

Arpita looked at her grandfather once then looked at Parth shockingly who was smirking at her.

"Don't be so shocked Arpita, maine hi tumhare grandpa ko call karke India bulaya hain aur unhen specially yeh kaha tha ke wo tumse kuch na kahe, cause it's a surprise." Parth grinned devilishly but his smile vanished next.

"Keya socha tha tumne ke tum Sanyukta ko harm karne ki kousish karogi aur main kuch nehi karunga! Maine Goa jane se pehele hi tumhare grandpa ko call karke yeha bula liya tha pata hain kyu, kyu ki zindegi mein peheli baar main aapna responsibility pura nehi kar paya. Main Sanyukta ko tumhare evil plan se bacha nehi paya. Main yeha India mein vacation par nehi aaya hu Arpita aur nahi business mein experience badhane wo toh waha USA mein vi kar sakta tha. Main yeha par sirf aur sirf badi mom ke bulane par aaya tha. Aur pata hain badi mom ne mujhe yeha par kyu bulaya tha, Randhir aur Sanyukta ki shaadi ko bachane ke liye. Aur main badi mom ke kahene par kuch vi kar sakta hu toh phir tum cheese keya ho Arpita! Sirf aur sirf Randhir ki wajase tumhe tolerate kiya but not anymore, it's high time to show you your place." Parth said in an icy cold voice when Arpita looked at him in disbelief when her grandfather came and hugged her.

"Mera bachcha, I missed you so much." Arpita's grandfather said caressing her back when she forced a smile.

"Grandpa aap yeha par?" Arpita able to say that only.

"Tum nehi aayi na iss liye mujhe hi aana padha. Aab saath mein ghar jayenge, tum chalogi na mere saath?" He asked with care.

"Of course she will go with you grandpa. After all family comes first." Parth flashing a smile when grandpa smiled too.

"Thank you beta, itne short time mein sab kuch arrange karne ke liye." Grandpa said became overwhelmed.

"Aare grandpa jaise aapke liye Arpita waise hi main aur aapno se kaisa formalities." Parth said when grandpa smiled brightly.

"Aap dono batein kariye bahut din baad mile na, Arpita please take care of grandpa and grandpa please be comfortable, isse aapna hi ghar samjhiye. Now excuse me." Parth said and left from there next.

"Happy?" Roja asked with a smile.

"Not yet, pehele yeh Arpita naam ki disaster yeha se jayegi then I'll be relax and happy. Now please excuse me I have an important work to do." Parth said and left.

Randhir and Sanyukta were dancing looking at each other when Randhir said, "Did I told you that you looking breathtakingly beautiful tonight!" He hushed when she smiled brightly.

"Yes you did, and so many times that I lost the count now." Sanyukta replied playfully.

"Aare khubsoorat ladki ki jitni tareef ki jaye utni kam hain." Randhir said huskily.

"Achchha, kaal jab wo gown pehana tha tab toh tareef nehi kiya tha, I was expected something special from you!" She pouted when he smiled.

"Tareef karne ke liye logo ko hosh mein rahena jaruri hota hain but I almost gave a cardiac attack last night to saw you in that dress. Mann toh kar raha tha tumhe uda kar kahi dur leke jau, honeymoon manane." He said teasingly when she blushed hard.

"Huhhh, maine socha tha Goa mein honeymoon manayungi but you ruined all my plan." She pouted.

"Iss that so then I have to do something very special to compensate." He said playfully.

"And what's that?" She asked raising her brows.

"What about the birthday gift!" He said when she rolled her eyes.

"But tum mujhe already birthday gift de chuke ho!" She said surprisingly.

"Come on that's just an ordinary phone koi birthday gift nehi hain. Randhir Singh Shekhawat aapne wife ko as a birthday gift sirf ek phone dega, ho hi nehi sakta!" Randhir said with an attitude when Sanyukta looked at him confusingly.

"You mean gift kuch aur hain?" She asked curiously when Randhir nodded positively.

"Yeap."

"Keya hain?" She asked curiously.

"Umm hu, aaise nehi. Gift room mein hain but pehele yeh batao ke mujhe return gift mein keya milega?" He asked naughtily.

"Jo tum bolo." She said eagerly.

"Okay then I'll tell you at the night." He smirked at her when she smiled and they walked out from the dance floor when Parth came there.

"Can I have the pleasure of shaking a leg with the birthday girl?" Parth asked with a smile.

"What about a kick, I'll give you happily then!" Randhir replied playfully.

"Only if you become agree for the return gift!" Parth said mockingly when Sanyukta chuckled.

"Sanyukta you looks beautiful. By the way red is my favorite colour you know." Parth said with a smile when Randhir rolled his eyes.

"Tera keya har din ke hisab se taste change hota hain! Kaal tera favorite colour white tha aur aaj red ho geya hain?" Randhir asked mockingly.

"Wo keya hain na colours aren't my bestfriend, so I can change them to impress anyone. It's called intelligence." Parth smirked at him.

"Yeah right intelligence, tabhi Sanyukta ko lobster khilaya tha yeh bolke ke baby will be intelligent! Aare jisse khud nehi pata that lobster isn't a fish wo khudko intelligent bol raha hain!" Randhir said mockingly when Parth rolled his eyes. Just then the media came there to take their interview. Both Randhir and Parth became busy to giving interview when Sanyukta's mind was stuck with something.

"Randhir ne kaha tha ke gift room mein hain so I should go there and check it." She said in mind and want to their room next.

Sanyukta came to their room and was searching for the gift but didn't found it.

"I think cupboard mein hoga." She said and opened the cupboard when saw a box there. She opened it and saw a waist chain inside it. She smiled to saw the chain when a letter caught her attention. She became curious and opened it next.

Happy birthday Sanyukta,

You know what I was very much confused about your gift. I didn't understand what exactly I give you! But one thing I was sure about that the gift must be beautiful and unique too just like you. And it'll be the symbol of our love too. I was so confused when I remembered something. Remember that day when you were preparing the biriyani for the first time and I was gawking at your waist when you caught me red handed and I said your waist aren't very much sexy like Laila and you became furious on me. That was the moment when I saw a ting of jealousy in your eyes for the very first time. And as we all know jealousy happens due to love. So that was the moment when love started blooming in your heart for me. So I decided to give you this chain on your special day so that it keeps remind you about our love.

I love you.
Randhir

"I love you too Randhir. You still remember those moments." Sanyukta smiled brightly to read the letter and about to keep it when something caught her attention. She turned around the letter when saw something written there too.

P. S : Don't forget about the return gift jaan. And my return gift is each time I'll make you wear this chain only. Cause only I have the right to touch you like that.

Sanyukta blushed hard to read it and kissed the letter, "Only you have." She murmured with a smile. Just then she heard a footstep behind her thus she smiled brightly realising who it was.

"Randhir I got my gift so it's not surprise anymore." She said happily and turned around but became shocked next to saw Arpita in front of her.

"Arpita tum?" Sanyukta asked shockingly.

"Surprise nehi shock kaho Sanyukta jo tumne aur Parth ne mujhe diya hain!" Arpita said coldly.

"What are you talking about?" Sanyukta asked confusingly.

"Don't try to be innocent Sanyukta. Tumne aur Parth ne mill kar grandpa ko India bulaya hain na so that wo mujhe wapas le jaa sake!" Arpita hissed.

"Maine aaisa kuch nehi kiya hain Arpita." Sanyukta said firmly.

"Ohh just shut up. I know yeh sab kuch tumne kiya hain, tumne aur Parth ne mill kar so that tum mujhe mere Ron se dur kar sako, hain na!" Arpita hissed like a venomous serpent.

"Randhir is my husband." Sanyukta said slowly yet steadily.

"Ron is only mine and will always be mine. You can't snatch him from me, never." Arpita said furiously.

"Chhinne ki kousish toh tumne kiya tha Arpita lekin keya huya nehi chhin payi na Randhir ko mujhse aur na kabhi payogi cause wo mera hain." Sanyukta said firmly.

"Ron sirf mera hain. Bahut kousish kiya maine tum dono ke bich misunderstanding creat karne ki lekin har baar wo Parth bich mein aah jata tha aur mera plan backfire ho jata tha. Socha tha iss baar mera plan kaam karega lekin nehi sab kuch ulta ho geya. Galti kar di maine jo tumhe sirf uss classroom mein lock kiya tha, socha tha ke aapni trauma ki wajase tum Ron ko hurt karogi aur wo tumhe chhod kar mere pass aah jayega. Lekin tumne aapna rang dikha hi diya na, phasa liya na mere Ron ko aapne jaal mein!" Arpita spat out all the truth when they heard a noise behind them thus they turned around and saw Randhir was stood there at the door and was looking at Arpita in shock.

"Ron!" Arpita became shocked to saw Randhir there.

"Ron it's not like that." Arpita said nervously when Randhir taking slow steps towards her.

"Ron tum jaisa soch rahe ho waisa nehi hain." She stammered a little when Randhir came near her and stood in front of her.

"Ron I can explain." She said hesitatingly when Randhir was giving her a cold stare.

"What explain you will give Arpita?" Randhir asked in an icy cold voice when Arpita shocked to heard 'Arpita' from his mouth as he always used to called her 'Arpi'.

"Ron it's not like that, jo tum soch rahe ho waisa bilkul nehi hain." Arpita was now stammering badly when Sanyukta noticed a tinge of moisture in Randhir's eyes.

"Okay then explain, main vi janna chahata hu ke saach keya hain!" He said coldly when Arpita kept mum.

"Why are you silent now, explain. I said Explain!" Randhir screamed this time when Arpita shivered in fear.

"Aur keya explanation dogi tum aapne conspiracy ka jo tumne mere aur Sanyukta ke bich misunderstanding creat karne ke liye kiya tha, haan?" Randhir asked furiously when his eyes became moist so as Arpita when Sanyukta was the silent spectator.

"Maine tumhe aapna bestfriend samjha, bachpan se lekar aaj tak tumhe aapne zindegi mein sabse jyada priority diya, aapna pura bachpan tumhare saath spend kiya. Yeha tak ke uncle aur aunty ki death ke baad tumhe aapne ghar mein aapne pass rakha so that tumhe aapni family ki kami kabhi mehesus na ho aur tum, tum meri family todna chahati thi!" He said in disbelief.

"Main Sanyukta se kitna pyar karta hu yeh jante huye vi tum usse mujhse dur karna chahati thi!" Randhir said in disbelief when tears rolled down from his eyes. What he was listening few minutes ago enough to stabbing his heart brutally. Right now he was feeling a hollow inside him. He can't even believe that the person he trusted the most was killed his trust like this.

"I trusted you Arpi, I shared every single thing with you and what you did with me, you killed my trust like this!" He said wiped away his tears when Arpita was also in tears.

"No Ron it's not like that." She was crying continuously.

"Tumhe pata tha na Sanyukta ki trauma ke ware mein, uske darr ke ware mein! Tumhe pata tha na usse aapne past ko dekh kar panic attack aah sakta hain aur phir vi tumne usse uss room mein jaan bujh kar lock kar diya! How could you Arpi, how could you? Sanyukta ke ware mein nehi kamse kam humare unborn child ke ware mein toh sochti, what if usse kuch ho jata toh?" Randhir asked each and every word dipping in harted.

"Ron I swear main Sanyukta yeah phir uske baby ko kabhi harm karna nehi chahati thi, I just wanted ke Sanyukta tumhari life se chali jaye aur tum mujhe wapas mill jau, cause I love you Ron. I love you very very much." She said cupping his face when Randhir pushed her.

"But I hate you Arpita, I just hate you." Randhir said with hatred when Arpita just froze there.

"Yes I hate you and am regretting to make friendship with you. Aaj mujhe aaisa laag raha hain ke tumhe iss ghar mein wapas lana meri zindegi ki sabse badi galti thi. I just don't want to see your face anymore. Just got lost in front of my eyes." Randhir said furiously when Arpita forget to blink.

"Ron am sorry please forgive me. I am your bestfriend." She said hopefully when Randhir looked at her eyes.

"We aren't friends anymore. Am breaking our friendship today, forever." He said in an icy cold voice when she looked at him without a blink.

"Sanyukta isse kaho ke yeh yehase chali jaye, I feel suffocated here." Randhir said sternly when Arpita gulped hard. She looked at Sanyukta lifelessly and said,

"Congratulations Sanyukta, you won the war and I lost. Now happy? Yehi toh chahiye tha na tumhe, mera Ron and see you get what you want." She forced a smile.

"But I lost him, that too forever. I lost my friend, I lost my love, I lost everything. Sab khatam ho geya, sab kuch khatam ho geya sirf aur sirf tumhari wajase! Aur tumhe keya lagta hain ke main tumhe chhod dungi!" Arpita said furiously and caught Sanyukta's neck making her shocked.

"I'll kill you." She said furiously strangled Sanyukta's neck when Randhir hold her hands.

"Leave her Arpita I said just leave her." Randhir was trying to removing her hand.

"No I'll kill her, she is the reason behind all this, I won't leave her." Arpita said furiously when Randhir removed her hand from Sanyukta's neck and placed a hard slap on her cheek.

"Stay away from my wife or else I'll kill you!" Randhir threatened her holding Sanyukta carefully who hugged him in fear when Arpita looked at him in disbelief. She can't even imagine that Randhir can slap her. Just then everyone came there and became shocked to saw the scenario.

"What happened Rono?" Renuka asked shockingly when Sanyukta rushed to Anju and hugged her tightly and Parth disclosed the whole truth to everyone when Arpita stood there hang her head low.

"Mom aap grandpa ko boliye ke wo Arpita ko leke London wapas chale jaye otherwise I'll file a case against her." Randhir said in an icy cold voice when Arpita was crying silently.

"Am sorry beta on Arpita's behalf, main usse leke kaal hi London chala jayunga." Grandpa said slowly and left with Arpita next when Parth hold Randhir's shoulder but he removed that and left from there next.

Randhir came to the terrace and break down on his knees.

"Why why why?" He screamed holding his head when tears rolling down from his eyes.

"Kyu kiya aaisa Arpi kyu? Why?" He screamed again and bursted out into tears. He was sobbing badly when he felt a soft touch on his hair. He looked up and saw Renuka there and he instantly hugged her.

"Why mom why? Why she did this to me? Why she betrayed me? Why she broke my trust like this? Why why?" He was screaming and crying loudly when Renuka was also in tears.

"Rono rote nehi beta. Arpita ne sirf tumhe hi nehi hum sabko dhoka diya hain. You at least lucky jo tumhe uska aasli chehera pata chal geya hain." Renuka said caressing his back when he hide his face into her chest.

"No mom am not lucky. Aagar lucky hota toh phir mere saath yeh sab kuch nehi hota." Randhir was sobbing badly when Sanyukta was also in tears to saw him these much vulnerable. She came down and went to an empty corner. She was crying silently when Parth came there and placed his hand on her shoulder.

"Parth!" She hugged him and started crying.

"Main Randhir ko aaise tuta huya nehi dekh sakti. Main uses gussa karte huye dekh sakti hu, usse mujhse nafrat karte huye vi dekh sakti hu lekin rote huye nehi dekh sakti. Mujhe pata tha ke wo Arpita ka saach bardast nehi kar payega issi liye maine usse kuch nehi bataya tha." Sanyukta said in between her tears.

"Sanyukta saach ko toh kabhi na kabhi samne aana hi tha chahe tum jitni vi kousish kyu na kar lo. Achchha huya aabhi aah geya warna jitni der hoti Randhir ki taqlif utna jyada hota." Parth said when Sanyukta broke the hug and wiped her tears.

"Taqlif aabhi vi kam kaha hain Parth. Rishta jitna gehera hota hain chot vi utni hi jyada hoti hain. Pata nehi Randhir iss chot se kabhi bahar nikal payega vi nehi." Sanyukta said in a gloomy voice.

"Arpita broke his trust Parth. Aagar kaal ko main tumhe dhoka du toh phir tumhe kaisa lagega? Tum vi bilkul Randhir ki tarha tut jayoge." Sanyukta gulped hard.

"I know Sanyukta jab koi aapna dhoka deta hain toh phir kaisa lagta hain. Aur mujhse jyada iss baat ko koi nehi samajh sakta kyu ki aaj jaha par Randhir hain kabhi main vi wohi par tha. Achchhe se janta hu ke jab dil tutta hain toh phir kaisa lagta hain! It's feeling like hell. It's feeling like someone stabbing your heart brutally. Jeete ji marr jata haan insan." Parth said sadly.

"But main yeh vi janta hu ke Randhir ko aagar iss situation se koi bahar nikal sakta hain toh phir wo sirf tum ho. Only you can heal his wounds. Jau uske pass he needs you." Parth said when Sanyukta nodded positively and left next when Parth take a deep breath.

"Sir aaj aapne jo kuch vi kiya na usse aapke liye meri respect aur jyada badh gayi hain." Roja said from behind thus Parth smiled a little.

"Keya kiya maine, Randhir ka dill tod diya!" He said slowly.

"Nehi aapne uski aankhon se jhoothi dosti ka patti nikal diya. Arpita ka aasli chehera Randhir ke samne aana bahut jaruri tha warna pata nehi kalko Randhir ko pane ke liye wo keya karti!" She said kept her hand on his shoulder.

"Waise keya aapko pata tha ke Arpita aapna crime confess karne wali hain?" Roja asked curiously.

"I was not sure, still yeh expect kiya tha ke aapne grandpa ko yeha dekh kar Arpita kuch toh galat jarur karegi aur wohi huya." Parth replied slowly.

"Party ki suru se hi meri nazar sirf Arpita par thi aur jab main aur Randhir interview de rahe thay toh phir maine Arpita ko Sanyukta ke piche piche uske room ki taraf jate huye dekha toh phir maine Randhir ko vi bhej diya. Rest you know." Parth said when Roja nodded positively.

"I hope Randhir iss heart break se jaldi bahar nikal aaye." Roja said worriedly when Parth nodded positively.

"Hope so. Okay it's already late so let me drop you at your house." Parth said and they left next.

Sanyukta came to their room and saw Randhir was sleeping when Renuka caressing his hair. She get up and came near her.

"Rono is so hurt Sanyukta, aur kyu nehi hoga puri zindegi jiss rishte ko diya wo aagar ek hi pal mein tut jaye toh phir insan toh tut hi jayega. Kabhi socha nehi tha ke Arpita aaisi niklegi!" Renuka sighed hard.

"Tum Rono ka kheyal rakhna." Renuka said when Sanyukta nodded positively thus she left from there. Sanyukta came and sat down beside Randhir. She looked at him and saw dried tears marks on his cheek thus her heart ached badly. She caressed his hair when Randhir opened his eyes and buried his head on her lap and started crying silently.

"It's okay Randhir, everything will be fine please don't cry." She was trying to console him when he was sobbing badly.

"I trust her Sanyukta and what she did with me, she broke all my trust!" He hiccups.

"Pura bachpan jiske saath share kiya, jisse aapni zindegi ki har ek cheese share kiya, jisse main sabse jyada aapna samajhta tha, jise blindly trust kiya usine dhoka diya! Mujhe aaisa lagta hain ke aaj tak maine ek jhooti zindegi jeeya hain. Sab kuch jhoot tha!" He sobbed when Sanyukta gulped hard.

"Nehi Randhir aaisa nehi hain, ek Arpita ke liye sab jhooth toh nehi ho jata na! You still have your family, their love and support too. Main hu tumhare saath, aur humara baby vi toh hain. Tum dekhna sab kuch thik ho jayega, everything will be fine baby." She said kissing on his hair when he hugged her pressing his head on her chest when she hugged him back.

Later on the night when Randhir became asleep in her embrace Sanyukta was staring at his face and caressing it lovingly.

"I'll wipe all your pain Randhir cause I can't see you in tears." Sanyukta said kissing his tears.

As morning appeared Sanyukta slowly opened her eyes and her eyes fall on Randhir who was still sleeping hugging her like a child. She remembered last night incident and sighed hard.

"I'll bring that smile on your face Randhir and that's my promise." Sanyukta said to herself and get up from the bed after peaking his forehead gently. She became freshen up quickly and went to the kitchen.

"Bahurani aap kitchen mein, malkin ko pata chal geya toh phir mujhe datengi." The maid said nervously.

"Chinta mat kijiye maa aapko nehi datengi." Sanyukta smiled and started making pasta for Randhir.

"I know how to bring smile on your face." Sanyukta said and smiled brightly. Sanyukta came back to their room with breakfast and saw Randhir was sitting at the couch and was looking exactly nothing.

"Your breakfast sir. Pasta with white sauce and capuchino. Keya chef ko uska tip mill sakta hain!" Sanyukta said playfully kept the tray on the table when Randhir kept mum. She noticed his sad face and sat down beside him.

"Breakfast kar lo please, kaal raat se tumne kuch nehi khaya." She requested when he looked away.

"Okay aagar tumhe nehi khana toh phir main kha leti hu, waise vi am starving." Sanyukta said and took the plate.

"It's heaven." She said smelling the dish and tasted the pasta.

"Umm yummy. Dekho aagar nehi khayoge then it's your lose." She said playfully when he kept mum.

"Main khila du?" She asked softly and forwarded the spoon when he turned his face.

"I hate Italian food, so please aaj ke baad mere samne kabhi Italian food mat lana." Randhir said sternly when Sanyukta's smile got vanished. She remembered that Arpita also loves the Italian food.

"Randhir please aapne aap ko aaise punish mat karo. Jo kuch vi huya uss mein tumhara koi galti nehi tha. Bhul jao please." She said slowly when he looked at her.

"Bhul jau, keya keya bhul jau Sanyukta! Yeh bhul jau ke mere bestfriend ne mujhe dhoka diya! Yeh bhul jau ke usne mujhse jhoot kaha! Yeh bhul jau ke usne tumhare against conspiracy kiya! Yeh bhul jau ke usne tumhare trauma ka faida uthaya! Yeh bhul jau ke usne friendship jaisi pure cheese ko impure kar diya!" He gulped hard when a loan tear escaped from his eyes when he wiped it out.

"Yeah phir yeh bhul jau ke main tumhe waise panic situation ke time chhod kar chala geya tha Sanyukta. When you need me the most I left you. I left you unnecessarily, I hurt you unnecessarily. Yeha tak ke maine gusse mein tumhe tumhare hi room se nikal diya tha Sanyukta, jab ki tumhari toh koi galti tha hi nehi! Tumhe resort mein aane se roka aur itna hi nehi officially kisise introduce vi nehi karwaya that you are my wife. Jo respect tumhe Goa mein milna chahiye tha wo maine tumhe nehi diya aur tum bol rahi ho ke mera koi galti nehi hain!" He said with moist eyes when Sanyukta just hugged him.

"That wasn't your fault Randhir bass wo waqt galat tha, aur phir room yeah phir resort keya cheese hain jab maine tumhare dil mein aapna jagah bana liya hain." She said lovingly when he gulped hard.

"Why didn't you tell me the truth haan?" He asked breaking the hug when she lowered her lashes.

"So that I won't get hurt. Isn't it?" He asked when she nodded positively.

"Aur maine jo tumhe hurt kiya, wo vi uss ladki ke liye! I hate that girl I just hate that girl. I hate you Arpita and I hate myself too." He said with hatred and again break down into tears.

"No Randhir please don't say like that. You didn't hurt me. Actually you was hurt that time and that's why you hurt me that too unintentionally. So please don't be guilty. Everything is fine so relax." She said joining their head when he was crying silently.

"I'm sorry." He said while crying.

"Don't be, cause am not." She said and wiped his tears.

"I'll never forgive her, never." He said sternly.

"Randhir if you can't forgive her then try to forget her. Jo yaadein hume dard dete hain unhen bhul jana hi sahi hota hain." She said when he hide his face into her chest.

"Why she did this Sanyukta why? I trusted her more than anyone and she broke my trust." He hiccups when Sanyukta caressing his back.

"I know why Arpita did this Randhir cause she loves you deeply, madly, blindly." Sanyukta said that in her mind and kept caressing his back. Just then someone knocked the door hard thus Sanyukta opened the door and an anxious Parth came inside.

"Arpita attempt suicide. She cut her wrist." Parth was huffing when both Randhir and Sanyukta became shocked to heard this kind of news.

                                * * * * * * * * *

"Excuse me Arpita Oberoi, how is she now?" Parth asked to the receptionist as they came to the hospital.

"Are you looking for that suicide case sir?" The receptionist asked thus Parth nodded positively.

"She is fine now but still unconscious. She is in the VIP cabin, 4th floor." The receptionist said thus everyone takes a relief of sigh and went to the lift. The lift stopped and they way towards the directed room. Harsh stopped as he found Arpita's grandfather standing in front of her room and was weeping silently. Harsh's heart ached badly to saw that old man in that poor condition. The man who lost his daughter and son-in-law years ago now have to saw his last hope on this condition.

"How became these small kids took this kind of impulsive decision without thinking about their parents!" Harsh groaned in mind and went to Arpita's grandfather.

"Uncle how is Arpita now?" Harsh asked when he nodded positively.

"Still unconscious, thank god doctor save her. Warna upor jake aapni beti ko keya muh dikhata ke main uski beti ka dhyan vi nehi rakh paya!" Arpita's grandfather cried when Harsh consoling him.

"Don't worry uncle we all are here. Aur jab tak Arpita thik nehi ho jati hum sab hain aapke saath." Harsh assured him when the old man looking around.

"Randhir aur Sanyukta nehi aaye?" He asked not found them there.

"Actually uncle Sanyukta ka aaisi halat mein yeha hospital mein aana thik nehi hain issi liye Renuka ne usse rok liya aur Randhir ki tabiyet kuch thik nehi hain issi liye wo aah nehi saka." Harsh said hesitatingly.

"Don't be hesitated Harsh I can understand. Jo kuch vi Arpita ne kiya aagar uske baad Randhir usse nafrat karne laaga hain toh iss mein uski koi galti nehi hain." Arpita's grandfather sighed hard.

"Sorry to interrupting grandpa but Arpita ne jo kuch vi kiya wo koi normal insan nehi kar sakta. She planned really evil. I suggest aap London jake Arpita ka treatment kisi achchhe psychiatrist se karwaye." Parth said slowly.

"Parth this is not right time to discuss all this." Harsh eyed him thus he lowered his lashes.

"Nehi Harsh usse bolne do, waise vi Aparna ki laad pyar ne toh Arpita ko bachpan mein hi bigad diya tha aur phir uski maut ke baad wo out of control ho gayi. Warna socho wo mere saath London jane ki wajaye tum logo ke saath yeha par raheni ki zid nehi karti. But mujhe keya pata tha ke uski zid aaisi khatarnak ho jayegi ke wo rishto ka matlab hi bhul jayegi! Achchha hota ke main usse ussi waqt aapne saath le jata." Arpita's grandfather sighed hard. Just then Karan came there with another doctor.

"Dad he is Dr. Mathur. Yeh Arpita ka treatment kar rahe hain. She is fine now so aap log tension mat kijiye." Karan assured them thus they nodded positively.

"Doctor Arpita ko hosh kab tak aayega?" Harsh asked curiously.

"Jald hi aah jayega, don't worry." Dr. Mathur assured them and left from there next.

"Bade papa aap grandpa aur baki sab ko lekar ghar jaiye main hu hospital mein." Parth said to him.

"Nehi main Arpita se mile bina kahi nehi jayunga." Arpita's grandfather insists thus Harsh nodded positively. Just then the nurse came out and informed them that the patient gain her conscious.

"Uncle aap pehele mill lijiye." Harsh said thus Arpita's grandfather went inside. He entered and saw Arpita was laying on the bed looking at the ceiling blankly.

"How are you feeling now beta?" He asked when Arpita looked at him.

"Why are you saved me grandpa, I want to die." Arpita gulped hard when her grandfather shaded some more tears.

"Don't say like this beta at least think about me once. I lost your mom already and if I lost you now then how will I live?" He said in a gloomy voice.

"Aap kiske liye aapna aasu baha rahe hain grandpa, iss selfish ladki ke liye jise aapne ilava kisika parwa nehi! You know what Arpita you are selfish, yes that what you are." Parth said bitterly coming near her when Arpita kept mum.

"Parth stop it, this is hospital so don't create a scene here." Rajveer said sternly when Parth made a face.

"Beta yeh tumne keya kiya ek baar vi hum sabke ware mein nehi socha? Okay hum tumhare aapne nehi hain lekin what about your grandpa? Aagar aaj tumhe kuch ho jata toh phir wo kaise jeete yeh tumne socha kabhi?" Harsh asked when Arpita kept mum.

"Dekhiye patient ko rest karne dijiye, aap sab bahar jaiye sirf koi ek ruk sakta hain yeah par." Nurse said thus everyone left instead of Parth who came and sat on the stool beside her bed.

"I don't need anyone to babysit me so you can leave." Arpita said sternly.

"Yeh toh tumhe khudki surgery karne se pehele sochna chahiye tha. Waise vi iss incident ke baad I can't leave you alone so I have to be your babysitter." Parth said mockingly.

"How can be you so shameless? Aapna insult karwana chahate ho!" Arpita said gritted her teeth.

"I took coaching from you ke kaise khud ka insult karwaya jata hain! Like seriously itna sab kuch hone ke baad vi tumhe chain nehi mila jo yeha par aake admit ho gayi! Keya socha tumhari iss halat ke ware mein sun kar Randhir bhaga bhaga tumhare pass chala aayega!" Parth said coldly when a drop rolled down from her eyes.

"I know Ron will never come. He hates me. But I can't hate him. Aur nahi uske bina jee sakti hu issi liye..."

"Issi liye marne ka drama kiya!" Parth said mockingly.

"Maine koi drama nehi kiya. It's just luck ne mera saath nehi diya." She said wiped her tears.

"Ohh really then I have a better option for you. We are in 4th floor, kyu na tum window se jump kar do saara problem hi khatam ho jayega." He taunted her when Arpita smiled sadly.

"You can't trust me na Parth? And I can't blame you. But aagar tumhe issi se believe hoga toh phir yehi sahi." Arpita said coldly and took out the needle from her wrist making Parth's eyes widened and went near the window. She opened it and looked outside when Parth rushed to her and hold her tightly.

"What the hell are you doing?" Parth asked shockingly.

"Leave me Parth just leave me, I don't want to live I just want to die." Arpita said hysterically when Parth slapped her hard. She was about to fall down when Parth hold her carefully.

"Are you out of your mind? Marna chahati ho? Sirf aapne ware mein soch rahi ho tum Arpita and what about the rest? Kabhi aapne grandpa ke ware mein socha tumne ke unka keya hoga? Kabhi hum sabke ware mein socha hum jo tumhare family hain? Kabhi Randhir ke ware mein socha?" He asked impatiently when Arpita looked at him with moist eyes.

"Randhir marr jayega Arpita. Aaj aagar tumhe kuch ho jata toh phir wo zindegi bhad kabhi iss guilt se bahar nehi aah sakta ke tumne uski wajase aapna jaan liya hain! Pyar karti ho na usse toh phir at least uske ware mein toh socho." Parth said when Arpita was crying silently.

"But Ron hates me and I can't live without him. Mujhe marr jane do Parth am begging in front of you." Arpita was totally broken when Parth felt bad for her. He made her sat down on the bed and called the nurse.

"Pyar ka matlab sirf hasil karna nehi hota hain Arpita. Aur nahi pyar mein haarne ka matlab zindegi se haar jana hota hain. Aagar aaisa hota toh phir aaj main tumhare samne zinda nehi hota. Vidushi ki dhoke ke baad main vi suicide kar leta. You are lucky that at least tumhe kisine dhoka toh nehi diya." Parth said slowly.

"Parth aagar pyar ke badle pyar nehi milta toh phir kaisa lagta hain yeh toh tumhe pata hain na toh phir batao main Ron ki nafrat ke saath kaise jiyu? Isse toh achchha main marr jau." Arpita said in between her tears.

"Then show me your contract paper." Parth said when Arpita looked at him confusingly.

"Contract paper?" She asked confusingly.

"Haan contract paper, jiss mein tumne Randhir se sign karwaya tha ke aagar tum usse pyar karogi toh phir usse vi tumse pyar karna padega. Give me that I'll sue him in court." Parth said firmly.

"What rubbish! Pyar mein koi contract kaise ho sakta hain? I love Ron unconditionally." Arpita said surprisingly.

"Exactly Arpita pyar mein koi condition nehi hota that's why it's unconditional. Tum kisise pyar karne se pehele yeh shart nehi rakh sakti ke wo vi tumse pyar karega. Yeah phir wo tumhare hisab se kuch vi karega, kyu ki pyar mein koi shart nehi hota. Toh phir aagar Randhir tumse nehi Sanyukta se pyar karta hain then it's his choice aur tum usse tumse pyar karne ke liye force nehi kar sakti." Parth said holding her hand.

"But main Ron se bahut pyar karti hu Parth." Arpita said in a gloomy voice.

"But tumne kabhi yeh socha hain ke Randhir Sanyukta se kitna pyar karta hain aur aagar tum Randhir se sachcha pyar karti ho toh phir Randhir ki khushi mein tumhari khushi honi chahiye." Parth said when Arpita looked at him blankly.

"But nehi tum yeh kyu sochogi, tumhe toh bass kisi vi keemat mein Randhir chahiye, chahe wo keemat uski jaan hi kyu na ho! Ek baat sun lo Arpita aagar tumne Randhir aur Sanyukta ko aalag vi kar dogi na tab vi tum Randhir ko kabhi nehi paa sakogi kyu ki wo zinda hi nehi rahega, marr jayega. Aab tum socho keya tum yeh keemat dene ke liye ready ho?" Parth asked firmly when Arpita became speechless.

"Please give me your phone Parth." Arpita said after a moment of silence when Parth gave his phone to her.

"Hello grandpa you wanted me to go back with you na okay am ready to go back with you. And am sorry for hurting you these much. I promise I won't do this again. Aapki achchhi wali Arpita ban kar rahungi main. I love you." She said and cut the phone.

"Thank you Parth. Aagar tum nehi hote toh phir mujhe kabhi samajh mein nehi aata ke main kitni galat thi. Yes you are right pyar ka matlab sirf pana nehi hota humesha dena hota hain. Aur tum jisse pyar karo uski khushi mein humara khushi hoti hain. Thank you very much for this lesson Parth." She said when Parth smiled brightly.

"Anytime babes. And am not sorry for slapping you but love you that finally you gain some knowledge." He said when Arpita rolled her eyes.

"Aare genuinely bol raha hu, I have a girlfriend." Parth said when Arpita smiled.

"Yeah right, she is beautiful." Arpita said thus Parth smiled brightly.

"Aagar tum bol rahi ho toh jarur khubsoorat hain. Cause tum jaisi beautiful and classy lady maine aaj tak nehi dekha. Keya pata aagar Miss D'souza mere life mein nehi hoti toh phir main tumhe propose kar deta!" Parth said playfully when Arpita widened her eyes.

"Parth I'm in hospital, kamse kam yeha toh flirt mat karo!" Arpita said rolling her eyes.

"Aare flirt is the best medicine, le lo. You will get well soon." Parth said when Arpita smiled too.

"Okay now take rest and khabardar jo phirse koi stupidity kiya toh I'll kill you with bare hands." Parth threatened her thus she smiled.

"Yeah yeah am scared." Arpita said playfully.

"You should be." Parth said and sat down on the couch when Arpita said,

"Parth keya London jane se pehele main ek baar Ron se mill sakti hu?" Arpita asked hopefully when Parth lowered his lashes.

"I can get my answer. I think I deserve this." Arpita sighed hard and closed her eyes next.
