"Sure dida"said prachi
"Aren't uh my same prachi?"asked dida taking her hands on her own shocking her.
Her eyes started becoming moist,she would have been revealed if aliyah wouldn't have come in the room .
"Ni dida,i am not prachi,"said she
"Yes,aunty,she is not prachi because.."she spoke in some loud voice when ranbir entered the room.
"Because what buji"said ranbir staring at her.
"I.. Mean. She h.as alr.ea..dy said she is not prachi so why we are forcing her to reply this same question again and again"rep.lied aliya with little stuttering.
He nodded at her whose eyes were emotional and she smiled

"I will be back"said aliya and she left from there.

°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
"Prachi are you thinking about buji"asked ranbir while caressing prachi head which was kept on his lap.
"How do you know"asked prachi sitting beside him suddenly.

"Umm just because someone knows you here more than you do"said ranbir with a smirk.
She smiled at kept her head on his chest.
"Ranbir.."said prachi
"Hmm"he replied.
"I am really so scared don't know if she will do harm again"said prachi
"Prachi why don't we expose her infront of family"said ranbir causing her to lift her head and looks at him confusingly.
"But how will we do this"asked she
"Listen i have a plan. So its..................................................................!"he said causing her to jump over him in excitement and kissed his one cheek
"Hayeeee ,i am dying for this and now i get it"said he pretending to die while keeping his one hand on his cheek
"For what"She said pouting innocently.
"For this"he said moving towards her with pout closely catching her
She pushed him slightly on bed and run from there,leaving a smiling ranbir with his hands moving on his hairs.

****************
Aliya was going through some files in her cabin when she received a call from riya and left from there..

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

Walking through the barely lit room, all the woman could see was darkness all around her. The sound of her footsteps were the only thing that could be heard in the strange silence. Walking through the silence, her feet finally came to a halt as her eyes landed on another creature standing before her, back towards her.

"What have you called me here for now?" Aaliyah interrogated with a cold tone in her voice, crossing her hands across her chest.

However, all she could hear was silence in retureturn.

"Rhea?? Can you hear me? Sweetheart, I don't know about you, but time is really precious to me, so kindly speak up." She spoke in a louder tone, agitated by her silence. However, to her sheer surprise, Rhea's response was laughter this time, making her frown immediately.

"Time is precious to you, Buji?" Rhea spoke in amusement, finally turning towards her. "Oh, right! You DO need time for the meticulous planning of such hideous crimes after all. Or better, sins." She mocked.

"Rhea!Aaliyah stepped closer to her, staring hard. "Learn to tame your tongue before me! Or be prepared for the worst." She threatened.

"Wow, Buji! You're a mind reader! That's exactly what I was gonna tell you!" Rhea pretended to be excited, before staring back into her eyes with fierceness in her own. "Be prepared for the worst." She warned.

"Oh, so you're trying to threaten Aaliyah Mehra? Tch, tch, tch. You've spent so much time with me, sweetheart. Still it could do you no good. Don't you knowDon't you know the rule? No one dares to speak like that before me." Aaliyah spoke with an evil shimmer in her eyes, while Rhea just laughed at her words once again.

"I wonder where will all YOUR courage go when the time just takes a slight turn. When all you'll be able to do is beg for mercy which you won't get. When I'll tell all your truth to Dad." Rhea spoke with a sugarcoated voice.

However, it was Aaliyah's laughter which could be heard now.

"Seriously? Come on, Rhea. I expected expected better than that. You really think you'll go to Bhai and tell him some rubbish about me and he'll believe you? Don't you know I'm his little sister? All through these years, he has trusted me blindly. Never even believed that Pragya over me, and you think that he'll believe YOU? I must say you need courage to think that." She mocked.

"And well, I'm curious. What will you tell him? That his sister is an evil person? Sounds interesting to me." Aaliyah said, laughing.

"That you tried to to kill Prachi. You tried to kill his daughter, and he'll never forgive you for that." Rhea replied.

"Me!?" Aaliyah pretended to be shocked. "I tried to kill her!? Wasn't it you!? You killed your sister yourself just because you wanted to get Ranbir. You still couldn't get over your obsession for him due to which you killed her! I saw you! But since I love you so much, I couldn't gather the courage to ruin your future and happiness by telling this to anyone! And now you're blaming me! Why RheaWas loving you and trying to save you a mistake? Tell me." Aaliyah said with moist eyes, as Rhea stared at her with a shocked expression.

"Tell me? No? Okay, fine. Don't." She wiped her tears.

"Kam se kam itna hi bata do ki in dono kahaniyon me se kaun si tumhe zyada believable lagi?" She smirked.

"Yours or mine? Tum khud hi dekho. Why will I kill Prachi? Do you think I have some serious reasons to do so more than you? Of course not, baby. It's you who has since ever proven to be a threat for threat for her. It's you who had tried to harm her in the past as well. And it'll be you who will be blamed for the same this time as well. So stop your nonsense, and stop wasting my time. Dumb head." Aaliyah cursed her, gritting her teeth, as she turned to go, when a voice stopped her.

"How about some twist, Buji?" Rhea said, walking towards her, as she whirled around to face her with a confused expression, before Rhea lifted her palm before her.

"Aww, don't be shocked, Buji. I guess you you must know what it is. Drive for me, destroyer for you." She smiled at a still confused Aaliyah.
"Dad won't believe me? That's hard to imagine. But I'm sure he'll believe this video, won't he? A video which is a real evidence of all your crimes. All your crimes that you've confessed yourself. Remember the last time you called me to harass me with you threats? Were you too blind to notice the camera? I'm really disappointed in you, Buji." Rhea said with a shocked expression.

Aaliyah stared at the black drive, wide eyed, then to Rhea and then back to the drive contemplating what she was blabbering. Was she right? Does she really have proof against her being the real murderer of Prachi? But then why couldn't she notice the camera before? How could she make such a stupid mistake in such a big game?! But if she was right, Abhishek was not gonna leave her and she knew that. And being this close to her plan, she was not ready to lose.

"You're not doing anything like that! " She spoke,fear evident in her eyes.

"I sure am!" Rhea jumped with happiness.

"Really!? Don't you love your mother at all!? Do you know the consequences of your stupidity!?"

"About consequences, just wait and watch." Spoke she, moving past her towards the door, when she felt a hard object strike the back of her head, leading her to lose her balance.

"Ahhh!" She yelled, as her hands reflexively fled towards her head which was suddenly seeming to weigh a lot. She turned back to see a smiling Aaliyah staring at her with a devilish smile spread across her earlier horrified features, and a vase in her hand. However, the drive was still clutched tightly beneath Rhea's fingers.

"You didn't seriously think that I'll let you go so easily, did you?" Aaliyah spoke with a murderous glare.

"Matlab kuch log kabhi nahi badalte na! Na hi kuch seekh paate hain! Pragya ki beti ho na! To ziddi to hona hi tha tumhe. Par apni maa se itna to sikh liya hota ki Aaliyah Mehra se ulajhne ka anjaam kya hota hai.
Arre tumhari Maa mujhse itne saalon me nahi jeet paayi to tum kya cheez ho!" She yelled, as Rhea crumbled to the ground, still holding her head.

"Pehle vo Pragya! Meri saari zindagi barbaad karke rakh di usne! Phir vo Prachi! That girl, I just hate her so much! All of her actions, her gestures, her words, her voice, her name, her very existence reminds me of her dumb mother!
I did so much to make those two suffer! From brainwashing Bhai everytime to manipulating you every day against your own family!
There's nothing that I have not done to kick them out of my life. But seems like they have just been stuck to it forever like leeches! But no, not this time. Pragya has played enough with my life, not anymore, not anyone else. Her replica is just following her tracks. This time I won't let her kill my happiness. Prachi ke saath main Pragya wali galti nahi karungi. I'll just finish her off before she can harm me or my position in this house in any way.

Yes, I tried to kill her by manipulating you, but you! You dumb girl couldn't even get that done! Khoon to Pragya ka hi hai na tum mein bhi, usi ki tarah naalayak ho tum. And worthless people have no value in my eyes, sweetheart. Prachi nahi, pehle tum hi sahi.

Your death will kill Pragya, and I'll kill Prachi soon too. Vaqt bhi kya khoob chuna hai tumne. Mar bhi jaogi to kaise yeh kisi ko khabar tak nahi hogi. Mandir mein hai na sab, shaanti puja ke liye. How ironic!" She smirked, blabbering like an insane person, as she up furiously only to find an enraged Abhishek staring at her with bloodshot eyes.

"Bhai... " She managed, getting up, still stumbling.

"Shhh!" He raised a hand before her. "Shut up. Just shut up. I don't wanna hear anything from that filthy mouth of yours. Jitna bolna tha bol liya tumne. And I've heard all I needed to." Abhishek yelled, staring at her with a murderous fury, as sweat beaded on her forehead.

"Tumhe kya laga? Tum mere parivaar ko itni aasaani se chot pahuchati jaogi aur main kuch nahi karunga. That was so dumb of you to even consider that. But well, the dumb one was me here, wasn't it? How stupid of me to forgive you for each and every mistake of yours every time, just thinking that you're my little sister. So blinded was I in a sister's love that I failed to notice when my beloved sister turned into such a monster."

"Bhai... It's not like that, you're getting it wrong! Rhea was... " Aaliyah began, stuttering, as she tried to defend herself once again.

"Shh! Not any more. I'm not gonna listen to any of your nonsense anymore. Rhea was what? Huh? Trying to protect her mother from an evil woman? You are a disgrace in the name of a sister you know, Aaliyah. And even more disgrace in the name of a woman. This was what Mom and Dad left you with me for? Thanks to Prachi and Rhea, otherwise I'd have forever been too blind to notice your insanity." Abhishek said with agony of betrayal in his eyes, as he sat with a thud on the nearest chair.

Aaliyah looked around herself, only to find the entire family staring at her with disgust and hatred filled in every pair of eyes. Rhea was lying on the floor half conscious, with Pragya sitting beside her, hugging her. Prachi who was on Rhea's other side suddenly got up from her place, moving towards her. Stopping right before her, she outstretched her palm offering her a familiar black object placed on it.

"The drive, Miss Aaliyah Mehra. You wanted it right? Take it. It's all yours. And all empty." Prachi spoke with a victorious smirk. "I can't believe you fell for that so easily. I guess bure karm jab peeche aate hain to insaan ke sochne samajhne ki shakti khatm kar dete hain. The last time you called Rhea to meet you, do you seriously remember confessing your crimes to her? No, right? Cuz you didn't. But a supposed video of it was enough to scare you. Isn't that amazing?" Prachi informed, making Aaliyah's eyes go wide in shock.

"By now you must already be knowing that it was all a plan. A trap for the puppeteer herself. And you fell right into it." It was Ranbir who spoke now

. "You tried to hurt my Prachi, did you seriously think I'll let you go for even thinking something like that in the first place? If yes, then you're the most stupid person I've ever seen." He gritted his teeth, glaring at her.

"Oh, really Ranbir!? You think it's me!? Have you people ever thought why I hate them so much!? It's because they deserve it! They deserve my hatred and all the worst things in life!For spoiling my life! I just hate their presence! This was what Mom and Dad left me with you for, Bhai!? To ignore my happiness before this Behen ji's!?
You snatched my Purab from me because of her! Purab whom I loved so much since my childhood! Since the time I realised the meaning of love! I.. " Aaliyah yelled, only to be interrupted by Abhishek once again.

"Oh, really!? Tab to tumne kabhi Purab se pyaar kiya hi nahi! Because you could never realise the true meaning of love, Aaliya. Pyaarme apni nahi, apne pyaar ki khushi dekhte hain. Pyaar bandhta nahi hai, it's not selfish like yours. It's the most selfless thing one can ever think of. Maybe I should have told this to you before. Maybe then I wouldn't have lost my beloved sister." Abhishek mocked with tears in his eyes.

"Are you happy now, Pragya!? See, everything is happening just as you wanted it to! Mere bhai jo mujhpar jaan chhidakte the aaj mujhse nafrat karte hain, sirf tumhari wajah se! I'm not gonna leave you!" Aaliyah spoke insanely, as she rushed towards Pragya with the knife still in hand. However, a bold voice stopped her right in her tracks.

"Miss Aaliyah Mehra, stop right there, or we'll have to shoot." Ordered the police chief.

Shocked, Aaliyah suddenly felt her hands being surrounded by a cold piece of metal before she could even react to the voice.

"Yeh... Move!" Aaliyah screamed suddenly, pulling at the handcuffs in vain. "Bhai! Bhai, help me! Dekhiye na ye kya kar rahe hain. They don'tknow who I am! Bhai!"

"Le jaiye ise." Abhishek stared at his sister one last time, before placing a soft kiss on her forehead. "Why Aaliyah?" Was the only thing he could mutter.

"Bhai!" She stared at him with moisture filling her bloodshot eyes. However, what hurt him the most was that he could still not see even a trace of guilt anywhere in her eyes. Rather, the tears were of fear and defeat. Defeat as she had lost everything she ever had, and fear of what the loss had in store for her future.

With a last look at her dejected features, Abhishek turned his head away, as the police dragged away a crying and shouting Aaliyah.

"Papa." Abhishek looked up to find Prachi staring at her with wet eyes, accompanied by a now conscious Rhea and Pragya.

"It wasn't your fault." Pragya said, wiping his tears, as Rhea side hugged him.

"I'm sorry, Prachi. My own sister tried to kill you." He said with guilt in his voice.

"Don't be, Papa. It's not your fault. Some people never change.

And we can't do anything about it. Just think of it as a dark cloud which had been surrounding us, and has now moved far away from our life, leaving only a lifetime of happiness for all of us now. Thanks to Rhea and Aayan for making it possible. If not for them, I wouldn't have been standing here right now." Prachi caressed her sister's cheek.

"The great plan was still Ranbir's. Without you two, we wouldn't ever have been able to expose her. And she would have continued to play with our lives.Rhea smiled back softly.

"I didn't know when my daughters grew so much and became so intelligent." Pragya wiped her tears

. "Totally opposite to their father." She said, as the rest of them broke into a laughter.

"Come on, you're just jealous that they're hugging me and not you." Abhishek replied, as she shook her head in disbelief, before joining the family hug, as the rest came in one by one.
_______________________

One year later....

Prachi stood by the window, staring at the flawless beauty of the glistening moon, as the wind played with her loose hair, brushing it across her face occasionally.

One year.

Things have changed a lot since the past one year. There have been times of joy, and moments of sorrow. However, whatever came their way in the past one year had just strengthened the bond of each and every member of this family.

She remembers how broken her Dad was by the betrayal of his only sister. He never saw her face after that, but some wounds are hard for even the time to heal. But what happens always does for the good. Soon Disha had returned to their lives as all the misunderstandings had been cleared, and had accepted Aryan with open arms.

Aryan, that reminds her. His and Shahana's relationship was sure a shock to the family, but a happy one. So was Rhea and Aayan's. Everyone was so excited, they decided to plan their wedding the same day. And so here it was, that very day. She had not long ago witnessed both her sisters getting married to the love of their lives. Though she would certainly have enjoyed spending more time with Rhea after all these years, she still was happy for both of them. True love is not something everyone can get. And those who are lucky enough, shouldn't ever take that love for granted.

Speaking of true love of course, the only name that comes to her mind. She still wondered what had she done to deserve a life partner as great as her Ranbir, no matter if he said it was the other way around. Ranbir, she loved him so much. No matter how many obstacles life threw at them, their true love had always emerged victorious at the end. And their bond had only grown stronger with each passing second. How blessed she was to have a family as great as this, and a life partner as loving as Ranbir.

Her thoughts were suddenly broken as she felt two arms surrounding her, palms sliding through her waist before resting on her stomach. She didn't need to turn to recognise the familiar touch that still made her heart flutter, as she snuggled into his embrace.

"Prachi." He spoke, resting his chin on her shoulder.

"Hmm?" She spoke, closing her eyes, feeling the cool breeze brush across their figures.

"I missed you." He whined, making her giggle.

"Yeah, of course. We were talking downstairs twenty minutes ago, forgot?" She chuckled.

"Oh, come on! Twenty minutes are a lot without you! I'm sure you would have missed me too." He spoke, making her turn towards himself.

"Umm, lemme think." Said she, making him pout.

"Nope." She uttered, as he stared at her, bewildered.
"I didn't simply miss you, I missed you a lot, Ranbir." Prachi suddenly replied, hugging him, as his lips reflexively curved up into a huge smile.

"Ohho! Not bad. You've already started with your lessons from me. I must say, I'm impressed." Ranbir caressed her hair, hugging her back.

However, Prachi didn't reply, as she laid her head on his chest silently, holding him tight. Ranbir, alarmed by her change in behavior

parted a little to see her face. As he lifted her chin, he saw her staring at him with moist eyes and a soft smile adorning her lips.

"Prachi. What happened? Are you fine? How dare these tears come near you?!" He frowned, catching a lone drop right before it could fall. Prachi smiled at him, before turning to stare at the moon outside.

"Can you see that moon, Ranbir?" Asked she out of the blue, as he turned his gaze towards the divine beauty of the object.
"It has always been there. It has

, always been a companion of our lives, an evidence of our relationship. Pata hai tumhe? Aaj se chaar saal pehle jab mujhe laga tha ki tumne Rhea ke saath milkar mujhe maarne ki koshish ki hai, then I was completely broken. Mujhe laga tha ki jis insaan se main itna pyaar karti hun, agar vahi mujhe maraa hua dekhna chahta hai to mere jeene ka kya fayda. I would have ended my life as well, but you know who stopped me then?" She asked turning towards him, as he stared at her with pain in his eyes at her words. "You." Continued she, not really waiting for a reply before turning her vision back to the moon.

"It was you who stopped me from doing anything stupid as such. As much as I tried to hate you, my heart could never feel anything else for you except love. And that love began to get reflected before my eyes everytime I saw this moon. Tumhe pata hai? Tum har raat ko isi chaand ke zariye mujhse baatein karte the. Mujhse kehte the ki tum ab bhi mujhse pyaar karte ho. Main din bhar ki saaribaatein tumhe batati thi, aur tum aane wale din ke liye mujhe himmat dete the, mujhe hasaate the, meri chikchik sunte the. Tumne to mujhe gana bhi sikhaaya tha, pata hai." She chuckled once at the last mmemory

"Tumhare bina ye chaand hi tha jo mujhe sukoon deta tha. Maine kabhi nahi socha tha tumse dobara mil paungi, but I can't thank my stars enough for sending you in my life once again. Those years were the longest years of my life. If not for you and the moon there, I would have die... " She couldn't complete, feeling his finger on her lips, making her smile as she turned towards him.

"Manaa kiya hai na. Don't you dare even utter that rubbish. Abhi to humara saath shuru hua hai, aur tum abhi se hi ending ki baatein karne lagi. Tumhe kya lagta hai, sirf tumne yaad kiya mujhe? Main bhi roz is chaand se baatein karta tha. And the only thing I used to pray was to return you to me as soon as possible. You don't know how meaningless life felt without having you in it." Spoke he, staringAll the tears and sufferings are a thing of the past. Now all that the present and the future has in store for us is happiness. A lifetime of happiness and togetherness. No more place..." He said, kissing her cheek.

"...for these dumb tears now. Iss baar inhe chhod raha hun, agli baar keh dena tumhare paas nahi aane ke liye." Said he sternly. Prachi giggled through her moist eyes ones, before once again hugging him tightly, as he surrounded his arms around her in a tight grip.

"Ab humein koi alag nahi kar sakta, Prachi. No one can separate us now. We're one. Saari musibatein aayi aur humare pyaar ne sabko apna dam todne par majboor kar diya. Now this love will always tie us to each other, it has already merged our hearts into one forever. And they'll forever beat for each other, WITH each other." He spoke, placing a soft kiss on her hair.

"Ranbir?" Prachi spoke softly, breaking a long silence.

"Hmm?" He asked.

"Don't ever leave me. I love you my Baklu." She confessed onceagain, snuggling even closer into his chest, listening to his heartbeats, holding him even tighter.

"I never can. I love you too meri Chikchiki." He replied, chuckling once, placing his head on hers.

A sheer sense of relief and satisfaction washed over the two souls, as they remained in each other's embrace for who knows how long, the place where they belonged and the place where they were complete. The place which was perfect for them. Together finally after successfully emerging victoriousfrom every hurdle life through at them, their love for each other had only managed to grow stronger all these times. Pyaar sacha tha, manzil to milni hi thi. With their hearts lying in each other's protection for eternity, the moonlight kissed the two souls now together, marking the beginning of a beautiful journey of Baklu and his Chikchiki, of the hearts that shall now be TOGETHER FOREVER.
