After a few days,

The family got some good news from Namith saying that their sunshine was able to positively react to the medications giving them a hope of healing her completely.

As they returned from another of their trip to the US for her treatment, Trishna requested Namith to stay with her family to get some mental support.

As being lonely in her big apartment was scaring and tensely for her and Nimya alike. With the family and friends around would give her the boost that she would need for the further treatment of her child.

At the café

Mrunal sipped her coffee as she smiled lovingly with Akash who was narrating his decision to settle in the city.

Akash had got a new assignment with a big client in the city, making him reside in Mumbai for a few months or till the case closes.

His office paid for his travel, accommodations making it easier for the lawyer to settle in the new place.

Mrunal did offer him to stay in her house, but he denied it politely saying that it would be culturally inappropriate; winning her heart again.

"...so?...when can we tell them?...I mean I want to marry you, Akash...you know...start my life with you...us...our little family...happy..." Mrunal held his hands as he smiled looking down fogging his glasses hiding his shy eyes.

"...next week...I will ask them after our dinner...coz I know they will be in a good mood after having your marvellous food..." Akash had her smile with his words knowing that she did win him with her amazing cooking skills.

Nair Mansion

Mrunal was dropped by Akash in the Nair mansion in his bike. Deepika had made some herbal sweet rice dumplings forNimya; as the kid was not having the urge to have her bitter soups. 

As she bid him bye, a certain jealous mafia Capo was watching the pathetic scene from across his gym window. 

A rather pissed Rajeev turned the towel in his hands not liking the way Akash was holding and caressing her palms while trying to hug her. 

In the living room, Mrunal searched for her aunt to give the box of the rice dumplings and move out of the house before the mafia Rajeev would turn up from office.

Unbeknownst to her, Rajeev had taken a day off from office to work from home to investigate about the Papi in line with the Hacker who had told him to be on line at least for 24 hours.

Being in office would attract the attention of the authorities who were on the alert with the mafia clan ever since their approval to the IPS 7 from the court.

"...Buji!...how nice to see you!!..." Reena came towards her, carrying the tray of snacks and juice for the family.

Mrunal then gave her the box and thought to move out when Reena told her to have some tea.

"...Aunty, I just did...please I have to leave...bye..." Saying so Mrunal clutched her satchel to leave.

Reena's eye gleamed at the way the once perky girl was skilfully handling the Cola brown muslin silk saree with a low-cut blouse having the knot hanging tassels. Being the fashionista of the house, Reena would adorn all kinds of latest style statements to capture in her designer collections.

She almost dashed into Sonia carrying the glass of milkshake.

"...Buji!...when did you come?!...and you are leaving already?..." Sonia wanted to converse more with her but Vinay called her from across the hall for his tablets.

"..Coming!!...Buji, be a sweetheart and give this protein shake to Raj in his gym room...please honey!..." saying so Sonia handed her the protein milkshake before she could refuse.

Mrunal just held the glass and searched for someone to get her out of this mess. But everyone seems to be busy in their own world.

How come he is home...at this hour? Was the question that hit her head not wanting to encounter him.

The gym room

Rajeev was curling the cotton bandage in his hands to begin his boxing practice, when

The boxing punch bag was in the corner of the room, being hidden from the door. He readied himself to have the practice session that he had missed for so many days. 

Mrunal peeped inside the room and saw that it was vacant.

'...maybe he went off...I will just keep this on the table...and leave...' keeping the thought in her head, she did the deed.

She turned to leave when her almond kohled eyes met the boyish smile.

But he was in his full glory, strutting the manly build which was well hidden beneath his loose clothes.

Her eyes had a mind of their own as they scanned the Greek godly features starting from his 6 packs to his buffed chest.

Rajeev bit his lips at being able to make her mute with just his physic. He never knew that she would ogle right at him with all that dictating about being a good girl all the time.

She was not a good girl!!

*clears throat*

Mrunal gulped looking up to his playful eyes as he raised his brows.

"...hm...didn't know that you had it in you..." he closed in tightening the bandanna in his left hand.

Mrunal was pinned to the mirror wall not taking her red eyes from his calm ones.

"...the protein shake is kept on the table..." she tried to move out but he trapped her with his veiny hands slammed softly on the mirror beside her head.

"...you know...sneaking is not a good habit...Buji!..." he whispered to her, who creased her brow at his accusations.

"...I didn't have any idea that your sorry self was present in here...otherwise I would have never entered in this room!!..." she glared at him specifically mentioning that she was not interested in him or his existence.

"...Mhm!...how come what your lips convey...is not visible in your eyes...Buji?!!!...coz, they seem to not take their attention from...*chuckles*..." he bit his lower lips signalling to his abs to which she widened her eyes at being caught ogling at him.

Rajeev just wanted to tease her as usual to remind her of words that she beautifully wrote in her diary about him and his eyes.

He knew that she was not the type of girl to fall for a guy's looks but would fall in deep love with his soul. Which she had...for him.

Mrunal felt offended and pushed him who continued saying "...why are you holding back?!!...I know you love me...and can't stay away from me...that Akash kid, is just a distraction from me...*chuckles*..."

'Wait...how did he know about Akash?...*scoff*...how could I forget?!...he is the mafia Capo!!!...Appa was right...' the thoughts made her halt in her stride, making Rajeev walk up to her taking in her; as always sensual saree self.

'Babygirl has turned a little chubby!! Your Raj loves it!' thinking loud he strode to her zoned out self.

He moved towards her ears trying to take in her scent whispering "...give up, sweet Buji!!..."

That's it.

She turned abruptly to give him a piece of her mind and show him his status in her eyes.

"...*scoff*... if you think that I will crawl to you...seeing your muscles?!.... *mocking laugh*...keep dreaming!!!... you are nothing but a grade one jerk!!!...humph!!...you are not half the man that my Akash is!!!..." saying so, she tried to push him and move out of the room when

He pulled by her arms warning her "...take it back!!!...". She jerked her hands back, spatting on his glaring face "...make me...skirt-chaser!..."

"...what did you call me, huh?!!..." gritting his teeth, he closed in her but she just smirked to taunt him finally and continued "...you heard me?...you are nothing but a slicker!!...a pleasure-seeking psycho!...humph!!"

How could she talk such nonsense? Has she learnt such bad words in the university, ruining her language?!!...were the thoughts the once music teacher had; listening to her sickening words.

As she tried to move out of his sickness, she was harshly pulled towards his bare buff chest. He tried to control his anger but she was only triggering him to do the unthinkable. Her behaviour only spelled disgust towards him which he didn't like and thought to teach her on how to respect him.

The String-Breaker smirked whispering '...am I now?...ok!!' twisting her hand behind her back, and kissed her rather roughly to stop her sweet cusses.

Mrunal was shocked beyond her senses at his courage to kiss even after knowing that she had a boyfriend.

She backed him with her strength and

Slap!

His cheeks redden with the hard slap impact, but he just faced her again to take her lips.

Slap!!

Again, he pulled her closer grabbing her neck torturing her lip to the brim of biting her lower lips.

He backed with a loud smooch warning her "...slap me again!...I will bend you over this desk, fucking the hell out of you!!!..." his fiery eyes glared at her.

Mrunal couldn't believe her ears on the barbaric way he was behaving with her. Her fearful eyes was not able to understand the crude man who could harass her in such a cruel manner.

She jerked him away from her with the tears in her almond eyes. But he just smirked with the built-up anger for her who was disregarding his love for her over and over again mentioning her boyfriend in all their fights.

"...Idiot!...jerk!...bastard!!...blasphemy!!!..." she grunted with all the cuss words that she could gather to throw at the man whom she had worshipped once.

"...." As she paused to find some more hard insults to bash at him.

"...go on...I am waiting..." Rajeev signalled her to continue her 'praises' for him who just wanted her to release her hatred toward him.

She gathered herself, moving closer to him enunciating each of her words "...you are the reincarnation of the demonic Satan straight from hell!!!..." she pierced his soul with her hateful eyes pouring out the despise that she had carried ever since the news.

"...proud of it!!!...." side smiling, he bend over her face level claiming his hold of being the Devil himself.

Mrunal feared the man in front of her, saddened at his evil aura which could only ruin her for life.

"...pathetic!!!..." was the only thing she could whisper, moving out of his reach.

Rajeev stood breathing heavily with the regret and anger at not able to tell the truth which would bring back her love for him...only for him.

Ping!

His laptop onto the desk pinged with the video call from the Hacker. He shaked off his anger and went to take in the information about the Papi.
