Recap - Arjun realising his changes , Tharas confrontation with Vicky

Aarohi walked inside the house and saw Arjun walking downstairs. Busy wth a call over his phone. She stood still until his eyes fell on her

"Fine. I'll talk to you later?"he disconnected the call and walked to her.

Aarohi gulped. Looking at him.

"Ms. Aarohi..I'm leaving early. Amma..i mean they went to the temple nearby with Nivi. Seethama isn't here. So if you could..."

"I'll take care of it Mr. Arjun "

"Okay. Thanks.."he tried to move

"I need to talk"she said composing herself. He stopped looking at her

"Yes?"

Her heart thudding out of her chest. Aarohi bited her lips and tried to pacify herself

"Tell me Ms. Aarohi.."

"Mr. Arjun..i want to..i mean..i..."

"You?"

She let her breath go out and clutched her dupatta

"I Love You... Mr. Arjun"

"What?"he screamed making her shiver

"Arjun..i Love.."

"How dare you Ms. Aarohi?"he yelled at top of his voice. Catching hold of her wrist. He gripped it tighter making her yell in pain.

"Arjun..?"

"Are you in your senses Ms. Aarohi. Fault is mine. I gave a bit of freedom to you. You dont deserve that now. Listen to me carefully. You can't take my kavyas place. Keep that in your mind if you dont want to loose your job."

Tears rolled down her cheeks.

"Ms Aarohi..Hello?" Arjun ran his palms in front of her making her come back to her sense. Aarohi looked around the house and then looked back at him

"What happened to you?"he asked , puzzled

"Mr..Arjun..... Did I say something now..?"she asked. Unsure

" I'm wondering why you are not opening your mouth.  Did you start day dreaming? Ms. Aarohi. What do you want to say?"

"Nothing..Mr. Arjun. We have an important meeting today right. I was talking about that ..."she bited her lips

"Okay..Listen. You're going to present it and i want you to reach there. Sharp time"

"Sure..i will. Mr. Arjun "

"Hm.."he nodded walking away from her even though he was bewildered by her behaviour.

"What's wrong with her?"

He looked back at her once again and found her slapping her head.

"Kuch kuch hota hai. Mr. Arjun" she giggled and walked to the kitchen.
.
.
.
Thara walked to the kitchen and found Aarohi engaged in a work.

"Hey..Aarohi?"

She looked up and saw Thara walking towards her

"Aren't you coming to the office today. We have meeting right?"she asked and Aarohi nodded

"Yes..i will leave in 15 minutes " Aarohi said not bothering to look up from her work. Thara  gritted her teeth inwardly

"Okay" she shrugged and walked away from her. Aarohi shook her head and continued her work

Thara walked outside the house and whipped out her phone. She dialled Vickys number

"Baby?"

"She's alone. Arjun just left. This your chance "

"Wish me luck babe. Im there "

Thara smirked and disconnected her call

Vicky rubbed his palms together and opened the gate of Devanand Mansion. With a smirk he walked inside and rang the calling bell

Aarohi washed her palms. Taking it to be Nivi and Arjuns parents she walked to the door and opened it wide.

Vicky stood outside smiling

"Hi.."he checked her out from top to bottom.

"Can i meet Arjun.? Im his college mate"

"Oh..Mr. Arjun went to office just now.. If you don't mind you can go and meet him there.." Aarohi smiled

"Yeah..I know. I just  called him and He told me that  he will come and meet me here"

"Ohkay..please Come in"

Aarohi smiled as Vicky walked inside.
.
.
.
"Damn it! how did I forget my pen drive?" Arjun looked at the time

He dialled Aarohis number. Once and Twice. And thrice. When she didn't pick it up , he left a message

Forgot my pendrive. In my drawer. If you could get. It's urgent!!
.
.
.
"Please sit"

Vicky sat on the couch comfortably. Gazing at Aarohi

"If you don't mind. I have to leave now. Please excuse me" Aarohi turned to leave

"Can I get a glass of water?"he asked.

Aarohi nodded and walked inside the kitchen. She hurried pouring water into a glass. She was getting late for the office. When she turned , she bumped into him. The glass fell down from her hands and Vicky got the right opportunity to catch hold of her

"What are you doing? Leave me.."she tried to get rid of his hold

"Babe..you look too hot. And you're asking me to leave you? Bad"he grabbed her waist.

"Leave me.."she screamed slapping him across his cheek.  He fell down when she pushed him hardly.

Aarohi ran towards the door.  Before she could open it he covered her mouth with his palms and gripped it tighter.  He behaved like a beast who got its prey

"You bitch..you slapped me?"he held her hairs in his fist and slapped her mercilessly. She tried to push him. In vain. She shrieked loudly for help. No one heard.

Aarohi felt breathless until he slapped her again making her fall on the floor. Her back hit the floor. 

"Pl..please..leave me"she joined her palms.  Trying to get up.

"No babe..how can you say that? I've been starving for you.."he leaned to her. Pinning her hands in the floor. 

She shouted for help. He slapped her again. Taking off the dupatta from her shoulders , he teared her kurta sleeves

"Please.."

He smirked leaning closer to her.  Aarohi felt disgusted and closed her eyes tightly cursing her ill fate. Tears rushed down her cheeks.

She felt as if her world had come to an end.

On the next moment,  Vicky fell down with a tight hard Slap across his cheek. He raised his head to look the person and found Arjun  fuming at him.

"Arjun.. " Aarohi breathed finally

He came forward, picking Vicky up from the ground by his collar. He slapped him left and right. Vicky  tried to punch him back only to get kicked in his stomach. Arjun kept punching him until he spitted blood and fell unconscious in the ground

He rushed to Aarohi , taking her in his arms. She hugged him tightly and cried on his shoulder. He saw her teared sleeves and covered her with his coat. Aarohi fell unconscious in his chest and he took her in his arms
.
.
.
"Who the hell are you?" Arjun screamed holding Vickys collar. Like a storm.

"Mr. Arjun..please calm down. We'll question him" the ACP intruppted

"Arjun..let them do it" Satya tried to pacify his angry son

"Open up your mouth. Why did you come here and why did you harm Aarohi?"

Vicky looked at thara , who stood at a corner. Sweating with fear. Arjun looked like volcano who would burst anytime.

"He wont answer. Constables. Take him with you. We know how to make him speak" the ACP Gestured to the other officers

"Dont worry Mr. Arjun. We've filed the case and...make sure that the girl is safe. We will need her statement too"

Arjun nodded and others walked outside. Raj walked to Arjun and touched his shoulder

"Thank god that you came at the right  time"

"Where's Aarohi?"

"In your room. Natasha is checking her"
.
.
.
Arjun walked to his room and found Ramya , Natasha and Nivi standing outside.

"My poor Aaru di..if i was here. I would have kicked him down and punch him. How dare he hurt her? From now on..im the bodyguard of Aaru di.."

Nivi kept saying. She was heartbroken seeing Aarohi in this condition.

"How is she? " Arjun asked to Natasha

"Fine. But still in the shock. She needs time to recover. Thats why we came outside "

"Can i meet her?"

"If you wish to"

Arjun walked inside the room and saw Aarohi sitting in the bed. With her legs stretched. Her head resting in the headboard. Her palms rubbing over her shoulders. She was shivering.

He took slow steps  and sat besides her

"You..okay?"he touched her palm.

She raised her head and looked at him teary eyed. Arjun clenched his fist seeing the handprint on her cheek

"I thought..he...will...he will..."

She busted out crying. Covering her mouth with her palms.  On the next moment she was in his arms. He hugged her tightly. Patting her gently

"Youre fine. Aarohi..youre fine"
