RIDDHIMA......

Vansh called out panicked as he saw her wheeling her suitcase out of her room towards the room

Grabbing hold of her hand like a child holds onto his mother, he pulled her in his embrace, almost scared to death at the mere thought of loosing her once again

"LET ME GOOOO"

"Riddhima sweetheart plzzzz"

"Please what haaan???
Please god damn what????
Please allow me to play with you again??
Please allow me to make fun of your feelings once again????
Please let me break you into bits and pieces once again"

"Please give me a chance to explain"

"What exactly will you explain
That you were playing the game of love and deception with me
That you were pretending to care and love me while the only one in your heart was and is ragini
That you had enough of the facade and wanted to throw me out thats why you were begging ragini to wake up"

"I WAS BEGGING TO RAGINI TO WAKE UP BECAUSE SHE HAD EVIDENCE THAT ANUPRIYA KILLED MY MOM"

Riddhima stilled in her spot for a second at the shocking revelation

"I WAS TALKING ABOUT ANUPRIYA THAT NIGHT
I WAS TALKING ABOUT EXPOSING HER AND THROWING HER OUT OF MY LIFE BECAUSE SHE KILLED MY MOTHER"

Her eyes rapidly filled with tears as her legs felt wobble almost refusing to support her frame

He was not talking about her

He was not faking her love for her

He wanted her in his life

She misunderstood her husband, the man she loved with all her heart and soul

Her lips quivered as tried opening them to say something but words refused to leave her voice box

How could she be soo wrong in judging the situation

But then all of a sudden something dawned upon her

Licking her lips, she managed to choke out

"If you were talking about anupriya that night then what were the divorce papers doing in your room???

What were you doing with ragini in pub???

What was VR ring doing in her finger???

Why were the reports gossiping about of your soo called wedding with her???"

Riddhima waited, praying profusely in her heart that he had an explanation for it all, but when his sealed lips refused to answer her doubts, hot fresh tears once again trailed down her eyes

"You're just a liar"

Drinking his tears like slow poison, he looked her dead on her eyes as he pulled her close, their nose almost touching

"You said nothing could change the way you feel about me"

Gulping her own tears, she took a deep breath before revealing her broken self to him

"Then i guess we both are liars"

Saying soo, without looking back even once, she walked out of the house or probably his life

........................................

"Riddhima
Iam soo happy to see you here
Looks like agastya couldn't keep IT as a surprise anymore and called you here"

"Surprise???"

"Oh no....was i about to spoil his entire surprise
Thank god I didn't spill anything out
Anyways
Ramesh....bring the dress i have ordered fornmy daughter"

"Yes maam"

"Riddhima i want you to go to your room and start getting ready asap
Tonight is going to be the best night of your life
No more questions
Come on
Hurry hurry"

Nodding unwillingly, she took the dress from her hand and went to her room to get ready

..........................................

With the shimmery elsa dress adorning her body, she stood at top of the staircase, totally confused as to what was going on

Why were soo many people called here???

Why were soo many reporters here???

What was agastya planning on doing???

"Riddhima "

"Agastya "

"I have a beautiful surprise for you my jaan"

"Whats that???"

Riddhima asked hesitatingly,

Life had given her soo many horrible surprises that now even the mention of 'surprise' sends a shiver down her spine

"Today
IAM GOING TO INTRODUCE YOU AS MRS RIDDHIMA AGASTYA RAICHAND INFRONT OF THE ENTIRE WORLD"

The entire hell broke loose on riddhima as she registered his words

Noo......

She couldn't allow him to do so....

She had betrayed him....

She deserves to be punished

"Agastya
Listen to me..."

Her breaths uneven...almost as if she were on the verge of having a panic attack

"I know what you are thinking
We are just engaged then how can I introduce you as my wife
But trust me jaan
I made you mine the day i laid my eyes on you
And now there's no going back"

Before she could protest or do anything, he gave her a simple and hurriedly ran down to the stairs onto the podium to address the reporters as the entire hall was engulfed in darkness

Mrs Riddhima Agastya Raichand

An identity of her own

The thing she had craved her entire life

Than why wasn't she able to feel any happiness when she was about to get it all

Was it really what she wanted???

The answer was a crystal clear No

No matter how much her tormentor had broken her

She couldn't forget him

She didn't belonged to him

They were divorced for crying out loud

Yet she belonged to HIM AND ONLY HIM

Her heart screamed at her that his hesitation had a solid reason and that for once on her life she should stop running and listen to him patiently

Maybe things would take a good turn

She couldn't become a two timer

Sleeping with the one she loved with everything she had

And being with the one who was her best friend

She couldn't do it

She couldn't

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN...
TODAY I HAVE INVITED YOU ALL HERE TO INTRODUCE A VERY SPECIAL PERSON OF MY LIFE
THE ONE WHO MANAGED TO CAPTURE MY HEART AT A MERE FIRST SIGHT
THE ONE WHO WAS MY BEST FRIEND AND NOW BECAME MY SOULMATE
PLEASE WELCOME THE LOVE OF MY LIFE
MRS AGASTYA RAICHAND

The spot light fell on the top of the staircase as everyone looked on with baited eyes, almost dying to see the special lady of the tech king's wife

Riddhima's eyes watered

She couldn't gather the courage to take a step forward and come in the limelight

She just couldn't

This is not what she wanted

It could never

Because he was not HIM

Her conflicted thoughts came to an halt as she felt her phone vibrating indicating an upcoming call from her tormentor

"Hello????"

Her almost choking voice managed to cry out

"Sweetheart
Thank god you picked up my call
Iam ready to answer all your questions
Those divorce papers...those were......"

BOOOOOOOM

The phone slipped through riddhima's hand at the loud impact

Vansh???????

Oh no.....

This can't be

NOOOOOOO

With no second thoughts clouding her mind, she quickly turned back on her heels and ran out of the mansion through the backdoor totally ignorant of the fact that the entire world had been waiting to see her

............................................

VANSHHHHHHHHHHHHH

she cried out as she saw his car set on burning flames, that rose higher and higher, as various men from fire department tried to extinguish it

VANSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

She ran as fast as she could, all ready to jump into the burning flames to join her love but was immediately held back by the police officer guarding the area

"Maam
You cant go any closer
There had been a bomb blast"

"My....my husband....he's in the car
I need to save him
LET GO OF ME"

She tried wiggling out of their but failed miserably as they refused to allow the maniac women to jump in the fire

"There is no way your husband would have survived the impact maam
We're sorry....."

Falling down on the dirty road, she looked at the burning scene infront of her

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

THIS CAN HAPPEN

THIS CANT

HOW CAN YOU ALLOW THIS GOD HOWWW

VANSHHHHH

PLEASE COME BACKKKK

PLEASEEE"

Digging her face in her palms, the poor girl cried like a wrenched soul who had lost her HOME

"SWEETHEART "

Riddhima felt as if she got her life back hearing the voice she had been dying to hear

Turning back...she saw her love standing behind her with various bruises around his face and body

Getting up, stumbling on her heels, she ran towards him and took him into a bone crushing hug

Hugging her back with the same intensity, vansh dug his face in her neck, inhaling her fragrance

Oh he thought he would never be able to see or feel her again

Breaking the hug, she cupped his face as her lips felt frantic kisses over his entire face

"How??"

She cried out

"I don't know
I was trying to call you but the call wasn't connecting so i got off the car and went at a little distance to call you and then all of a sudden the car blasted
The impact was soo much...i fell down and bruised myself
Oh lord
I have never felt this scared of death ever
I thought i would never be able to see you again
To never have you in my embrace
To never hear your voice
Oh riddhima
I LOVE YOU
I LOVE YOU SOO MUCH

"I LOVE YOU TOO VANSH
I LOVE YOU TOO"

............................................................

Gently applying the antiseptic onto the cotton, she softly cleaned the dark purple bruises radiating against his white skin as he continued staring her with love pooling in his eyes

"Dont look at me like that"

She requested softly only to gain a beautiful smile from his side

"Like what???"

"Like you're seeing a miracle"

"You being in my life, in my arms is no less than a miracle sweetheart"

"Iam scared vansh
I fear being heartbroken and alone again"

"Iam scared too riddhima
Scared of being abandoned by you
Lets not let our fears overcome the love we have for eachother "

"This thing between us
Its wrong....
Basically illegal.....
We are in a tainted relationship vansh"

"Look me in the eyes and tell me riddhima
Does it feel wrong???"

"No it doesn't "

She replied after a pause of one to two seconds

"But that doesn't change the reality "

"The reality is that you and me ,we, are here together
And thats all what matters"

"Oh vansh"

She cried out as she lurched for his lips,

Soft gentle kisses turning into ferocious bites as their fingers did quick work to remove every inch of clothing acting as a barrier between them

"Take me vansh
Take me"

"You don't have to ask twice sweetheart "

As the opaque raindrops ran lazily down the window panes, the two bodies moulded into eachother like a united soul never fated to be apart

"Iam sorry that iam keeping such a big secret from you sweetheart
But trust me...iam doing this for you only"

He whispered lowly to her sleeping figure as his lips left numerous pecks on her forehead, basking in the glory of her presence around him

............................................

Getting off the bed, careful not to wake him up, she slowly slipped inside his shirt that had heen carelessly thrown near the bed

Tip toeing out of the room, she took a phone from the drawer and dialled a number

When the call went unanswered for several times, she sighed sadly and slowly pressed the record button to leave a voice message

"MEET ME TOMORROW AT OUR SPECIAL PLACE

I WILL BE WAITING FOR YOU"

satisfied that her message had been successfully sent to him without vansh knowing....she slowly slipped back into the covers and slept with a smile or maybe a smirk on her face

To be continued.....

Target: 250 comments

Precap: someone is going to get kidnapped

What do you guys think is riddhima up to???

Who planted bomb in vansh's car????

Was it really an evil ploy against him or did he fake it to stop riddhima from being introduced as agastya's spouse???

If vansh was really talking about anupriya that night than what can justify the divorce papers and being with ragini in the pub???

How will agastya react on being abandoned in the conference that he had arranged just for riddhima????

What secret was vansh talking about???
