Did recheck... If any spelling wrong do ignore it like always 😅🤣

Time!!!!

Time changes so fast just like a blink... N raavi couldn't denied but agree that truly time has change.... As she look back, she don't regret anything... Never!!!

Thought the past 4 years has been a roller coaster for her.. She can't help but smile... She is so thankful for that 4 years... 4 years for only herself

4 years has given a clearer vision..... Her life seems to be more easier than it was on those days...

Finally she has graduated.. After graduation, since she was the only children of her father, her father express his wish that she should join the business.. But raavi had other vision... She always hated the rich but the fake society , no way on earth was she going to join the family business.... She decided to work for organization like orphanage n old age home... Looking after them n taking care of them... Her family were disappointed when  she express her wish.. But then she fight... She keep on fighting till they gave up... So ya the last 4 years were little hard... Thought her earning was little nothing in comparison to her family business... Still she was happy.. She was lively!!!

Not only her dreams... But this 4 years she invested that in understand herself.. In loving herself... In building herself

She don't regret anything..... Only that she didn't  have him.... N ya that makes the 4 years the hardest!!!

As she came out of her though... She reach the place where they wre supposed to meet... To continue wat was left

*********************

This 4 years were the best years for arushi...Her life took a drastic change after that night... N she was happy... As she look back she can atleast say that she was the luckiest during those four years... Not only did she take up her dad business but she found him.... Yes now arushi was so single, but is now engaged!!!! 

She was admiring the ring in her finger n the one who put it... She just send a silent prayers that whatever happens today at thr end of it all will live the place with a smile

************************

4 years of guilt... Yes that exactly how this 4 years were for janvi , piyush n micheal..... Their professional life was successful... Micheal n piyush together open a small restaurant which was running very nicely... Janvi became a successful model... Ya 4 years changes alot...

But they has a huge guilt for whatever happen that day... If they could restart from that day.. They will happily start it again.. They don't care about their success... They just wanted their friendship with him back!!!

N now they were desperately waiting for their friends to arrive n start what was left

***********************

4 years for ankit was full of struggle... Some days were happy n some days were worst but still he kept on going... The initial two years were very much hard since he was in the college as everyone were ... Only that he was not there ... He felt so guilt when he look at her face filled with pain n he knew that it's because of him... N that guilt was eating him... But thanks to her, for she was always there, never on his life did he thought she will be there for him when he needed someone by his side... She will be there to give him strength, hugs n take care of him... But she was there... N he couldn't help but fall for her harder.... But maybe destiny gave him his side of punishment ... What he did with them happen with him... He couldn't live with her since he had to move to America for this business... But he promised her with a ring that he did return n keep her with him forever!!!!

As the place was arriving nearer m nearer, his heart was beating on full speed but then her hand hold his n all he did was smile at her

******************

Finally after 4 years today was the day when all of them were to meet n continue what was left.... Yes after that night , they did meet in college but he left!!! Not only living them shock but only in guilt!!!!

This day was going to be different be roller coaster for them but they were ready if that's means there friendship will be back to like in those days... 

Raavi pov

My heart was beating so fast as I keep on moving inside the restaurant... No matter what happened I can't help but be proud of micheal n piyush, they started the restaurant with zero but now it's one of the best in town.. N the best one for me thought I visited it only twice.. One on inauguration day n other with a sponsored!!!

When I enter inside... I started searching them.... After few seconds I spot the three of them.... Seems like janvi came faster than me!!! As I saw them all the memories flashes..... I hardly meet them.. Like I say only twice since we all were busy or to say I avoided them...  We are in good terms, it's just that seeing them only take me back to that night... Not that they haven't apologize n I haven't forgiven  them but still I need time !!! Things are just complicated...

I went towards them, janvi was the first one to see me

Janvi - oo hi raavi!!!

She stand up n gave me a hug... Actually an awkward one... It's not only me that is awkward but everyone!!!

Raavi - hi.... (Breaking the hug) hi piyush  , hi micheal!!! (Smiling)

Piyush - hi!!!

Micheal - hello.... N how r u??

Janvi - take  a seat!!!

I took my seat

Raavi - I m fine n u guys??

Janvi - same here!!! (Smiling)

There was an awkward silent for few minutes!!!

Raavi - the restaurant change little since I last visited it!!!

Piyush - ya.. Did some interior!!!

Micheal - n how is ur work??

Raavi - it's going great.... N here???

Micheal - it's good!!

Raavi - n janvi how is ur new contact.... Heard u have sign a big brand!!

Janvi - somehow!!! (Shy)

Piyush - shall I order some juices??

I nodded!!!

Piyush when to get our drinks , while us three just have some random discussion!!!!

***************

After having the juice n a good conservation I was feeling a little better.. It was 15 minutes now n I was thinking when will the rest come!!! Just then I saw arushi entering... She seems to be in a good mood.... Obviously she is engaged with the love of her life... She should glow!!!

I couldn't believe she engaged  with....  N there I saw her happily walking with ankit hand in hand.... Shock right?? It was exactly how I reacted when she came one day to me n told that she is madly in love with ankit... I sarcastically  laugh thinking that she was joking but then when I saw her serious expression I knew it was anything but joke!!!

Arushi being the only person whom I still have the same bond as I had before, not before she is my cousin but because she stood by us when all were just blaming us!!

At first I just couldn't digest the fact that she is in love with the one who cause me so much pain.. But then when I saw them madly in love with each .. How they were being by each other side though they used to fight like tom n jerry , I couldn't help but be happy for them because at the end she was important to me!!! N now she was engaged with him

Ankit n arushi approach us!!

Arushi - hi guys!!! (Smiling)

Janvi - hi aru!!! Missed u so much (Hugging)

Arushi - I missed u too babs!! (Smiling)

I saw ankit , piyush n micheal sharing a  group hug!!!

Piyush - we missed u yaar !! (Smiling)

Ankit - I missed u guys alot!!! (Smiling)

Micheal - I thought u won't come,u were busy in America !!!

Arushi - don't worry  we will have come,I will have kill him if he cancel this !!! (Laughing)

Ankit - as if u could reach America to kill me!!!

Arushi - remember last moment I did reach!!!! (Raising her eyebrows)

Ankit - that was for anniversary !!

Arushi - which u forgot!! (Annoyed) I had to fly to America to remind u!!!

N here we go again no matter how much they look madly in love, there were still tom n Jerry!!

Janvi - u guys will never stop fighting na!!!

Anshi - never!!!!

All laugh.... Seems like all are comfortable with each other... I m the only one who is  feeling awkward here!!!

Arushi - hi raavi!!!! (Smiling)

Finally I m visible!!!

She pull me n gave me a tight hug!!

Raavi - hi aru!!

I broke the hug

Raavi - hi ankit!!!

Thought it may be hard but I still got to do it since he is my sister fiance!!! N ist not like he didn't apologize for that night... He did it like I forgot the count also but then it's difficult to forget .. I might have forgiven him but forgetting is hard ...

Ankit - hi raavi... How r u??

Raavi - I m fine!!!

I look at arushi, she seems to be happy to see me n ankit interacting!!

After that we all took our seats... The boys begin to talk n even aru n janvi were happily talking . .. It's all looks so same like we never had that night...!!!

As all were busy in their little world... My thoughts went back to that day!!!

Flashback (raavi pov)

When everyone were blaming us for ankit's case.... I eye shiva, he seems broken I couldn't see him in that state

Raavi- u guys just couldn't blame us for we didn't do anything!! Don't u remember what ankit did to me... How he cheated on me no one, twice but thrice... Do u think we are still wrong.. Do u think I m still wrong to start a relationship with shiva!!!

I shouted , I was so done with them

Janvi - we don't mean to say that raavi!!!

Piyush - the only thing is u didn't breakup with ankit... If u would have breakup with him then it will be another case!!

Micheal - thought u guys are not together but still u are together... For him u were still with him... For him u cheat on him!!!

Before I could say anything.. I heard a voice!!!

Arushi - just stop it there Micheal....

Arushi enter the rooms ... She seems so angry right now

Arushi - how dare u guys blame them... They are not cheaters.. Of anyone in this room is a cheater then it is ur dear friend ankit... Not only je cheated on my sister but broke her completely... It was shiva who was there to protect her , to give her strength... N so of they decided to have a relationship then it's their choice..... They didn't do anything wrong.... They never cheated n they don't need to explain to u guys... Just shut the f*** up!!! (Angrily)

Things were getting too much.... Before I could say anything... I eye the door it was open... When I turn around... Shiva was not there!!!

Shit!!!!! Here we go again!!!!

I didn't wait a minute..... I have to find him before he made a stupid decision to become sacrificial n sacrifice me to his best friend... I know shiva very well n one thing was sure if something hurted his friend he will do anything to make him happy ...

He might even leave me for his friend.... I hated it n I m not going to do it.. I m not as sacrificial n selfless as shiva... !!!

I ran after him... Sure we went to his home!!!

I call a cab n went before he leaves me!!!

*************************

As I entered into his home.... I was right... I was truly right!!!! I saw shiva packing up his clothes . ..

What the hell is this!!!!!! I just couldn't control my angry..... Why do he always have to should ankit over me.... Is he seriously gonna leave me without fighting!!!!!

I approach him n pull his collar!!!

Raavi - what the hell is this shiva??? Are u seriously gonna end our relationship without a fight?? How can u let go of us so easily?? (Angrily)

It took a few second for shiva to understand what was happening... It was evident in his expression

Shiva - what the hell are u talking raavi?? What is wrong with u?? (Annoyed)

Raavi - are u really asking me what is wrong with me... Or u just joking because I don't find this funny!!! U are the one who is going?? Are u really ending us!!!!!! (Angrily)

For a few second shiva was silent....

Raavi - why everytime do u choose ankit over me.... I m not telling u to not prioritise ankit... Ya he is ur friend... But at least prioritise me as ankit... Where do i stand in ur life shiva?? Where??

I couldn't hold my emotions... I started crying!!

There was silence all around the room... Shiva started wiping my tears

Shiva - calm down n silent to me quietly.... Will u??

I nodded!!

Shiva - k firstly I m not leaving u!!!!

He started by telling me that he won't leave me... Then why was he packing!!

Before I could ask he answer my next question

Shiva - I m packing my stuffs because I have to leave.....

He took a deep breath

Shiva - raavi my father, the king is sick n so I have to go there n be with my family... I can't leave them alone .. I need to be there for them!!!

It took few minutes for me to digest it!!!!

K his father is sick n he needs to be there

Shiva - I m leaving doesn't mean I m leaving u... No never.. Yes ankit is very important for me but u are equally important to me too... N I will never leave u because u are mine... N only mind!!! U ask na where do u stand in my life!!! U own my heart raavi... U own me, my happiness, my everything.... I will never would have been so happy if it wasn't because of u.... I love u... I love u  to the moon n back... so never ask this question because ur importance can't be describe in words.. U are my soulmate!!!!

He hug me tightly..... I was feeling so shy... There I was questioning about my place when he already gave me his whole existence... I hug him tightly

Shiva - no matter what raavi... We will fight... This time I m not letting u go....!!!

Raavi - keep fighting Shiva!!!!

Flashback end!!!

**********************

It was a long period.... I kept waiting for him.... It took him three months to tell me that he will not return.... His father was fighting with cancer.... N so there was destruction all over the kingdom... N he n his brother presence was important for between them one was to choose the king.... Through Shiva never wanted to be the king... His brother still wanted fair for him....... I didn't know what to do.... His people needed me.... Dating a prince is not an easy thing ...

N so here she is alone... Without him by her side.... It's not that they never met during the 4 years... They met but only twice Or thrice in a year... N so it was difficult for them!!!!

Arushi - raavi wat will u have???

Arushi voice brought me out of my thoughts...

Raavi - just order what u guys are having... I will have!!!

Arushi - r u sure??

Raavi - ya!!!

N they started talking....

Ankit - btw thank u so much guys for arranging this dinner!!!! (Happily)

Janvi - wat???

Arushi - ya I was so happy when u message me piyush!!! Btw did u change ur number?? I got message from ur new number

Piyush - ha no.... I didn't change my number... N this dinner is not plan by me... I instead got a text from janvi!!!

Janvi - I didn't plan this... I got text from raavi...

Raavi - I never plan this.. I got text from aru!!!

Arushi - that means no one of us plan this... Then who texted us!!!

I feel so strange thinking who texted us ..... Then I heard his voice!!!

Hi!!!!!

Raavi pov end

*****************************

This 4 years for Shiva was not more than a roller coaster.... Never in his life did he thought he will go back to the kingdom... But then he went there.... He went there for his family whom he love unconditional... 

As he left that night.... When he reach the palace, he was told that his dad was suffering from cancer second stage.... It was hard for the whole family n kingdom ... Their king was sick, best of the best treatment was given to him... He was suggest to take completely bed rest... N for this the whole family has to struggle...

The king has to step out of his position since now his health was the most important thing... N new king out of the two brothers was to be selected... He never wanted to be a king n his  brother was to be the king as he was the eldest son of the king... But his elder brother didn't want any unfair  with him... This touch his heart...  Though his brother became the king.. He was still happy that now his family were slowly understanding him

His relationship with raavi also took a drastic change.... He just couldn't left the palace n because of that he had a long distance relationship with her... Despite not living in the same place , they bond was as same as when they were together . . .. Everyday call , text n video call were their thing!!!! When they meet twice Or thrice in a year... They will spend the whole day talking n planing their next date!!!

Not only personal but his professional life was also getting successful... He was successful studying law... Which was his childhood dream... He was already helping his brother n also he was handling their family business... Shiva was super busy n super happy!!!

The only thing that kept of eating him was his friendship.... He was shocked when one day ankit suddenly came to his office with arushi.... That day was another roller coaster... They complain,they blame,they cry n they smile.... N finally they friendship was back... He was shocked to see arushi n Ankit together but they were happy n so he was happy too... Thought his friendship was normal with ankit... He still miss his friendship with piyush, micheal n janvi!!!

*********************************

When they all hear the hi!!! They all turn back n were shocked to see Shiva.... Raavi was the happiest to see her... She stood up n hug him... Follow by ankit n arushi

Raavi - i miss u so much!!!

Shiva - I miss u tooo!!!!!!

As he look at the three left... Their looks tell him how much they were guilty... He didn't want the awkwardness between them

Shiva - I was the one to text u all n plan this dinner.... Shall we all shake of this awkward n be back like how we were.... Shall we continue wat was left!!! (Smiling)

They all just gave him a smile.... N everything was back to square one . ..

*************

As the dinner was over , they friendship was back . .. Their smile was genuine with no awkwardness!!!

They all plan a trip together n  went to their home...

Shiva n raavi were talking towards raavi's apartment while Shiva just whisper something in  her ears which made her blush

Shiva - I can take it anymore .. Marry me raavi!!!!

************************************
