"I m really sorry Aradhaya." Nisha said to Aradhaya who from the Timr Nisha told her the news this morning.

The thing is they are going back to New York today only because Ishaan has got a important work which can be delayed.

"But Nish you know nah if you go who will be with me Gia to is ignoring me." Aradhaya said with sad voice.

"Aww Aru why sad when Nish is just a video call away, just tell me one time that Nish please come I need you , I will drag my Mr.Vampie to his private jet within twenty minutes." Nisha told her grinning.

Aradhaya would help herself from chuckling at Nisha's endearment for Ishaan." Okay." She said.

"By the way you know this upcoming week is our 2years of meeting god I m excited Aru I m thinking to surprise him , you will help me okay." Nisha said to cheer her up.

Aradhaya smiled and nodded both girls went downstairs where everyone was waiting to bide bye to Ishaan and Nisha.

"Call me once you reach." Aradhaya said hugging her.

"Aye aye captain.". Nisha said saluting her and everyone chuckled at her behavior.

They left from there Aradhaya went to her room , all the relatives had went in tour of the Rajasthan Soo practically only Vihaan and Her family was present along with the servants who was preparing for the marriage which is after two days.

Aradhaya sighed she has covered her puffy eyes with help of make up to not make anyone suspicious.

"May I come in Aradhaya." She heard Amaya voice and turned around to found her standing in the doorway.

She was bit surprise as Amaya never called her Aradhaya before she always call her Aru or baby sis, but she let aside and smiled at her.

"Why are you asking permission di , come nah." She said.

"I need a favor from you Aradhaya, can you Please go to the mall and bring these for me..ah why I m saying please you always did whatever I said and I like a bitch took advantage of it." Amaya said with bitter chuckle.

Aradhaya was taken aback by her words." Di why are you saying like that." Aradhaya said softly.

Amaya shook her head." Nothing, will you please bring them for me." Amaya said handing her a list.

Aradhaya nodded taking it." I have told Vihaan, he will take you to mall." Amaya said.

Aradhaya shook her head." No need di I will go with Driver Kaka." Aradhaya said, she didn't wanted to go out alone with Vihaan.

"We are new to this place Aru and I can't risk you to go alone somewhere and i know Vihaan will take good care of you." Amaya said smiling no one can take good care of you then him

Amaya walked out not listening to her protest but stopped at the doorway with her back towards Aradhaya,

"Aru don't love someone that much that makes you blind and you lost the power to see the right and wrong of them, love doesn't something which makes you their slave." Amaya said and left from there leaving Aradhaya shocked.

Why is di behaving like this Aradhaya thought.

____________________

Amaya looked at her parents and Vihaan parents who were talking with each other,

She had sent Aradhaya with Vihaan because she knows if Aradhaya would be present then she will not let her tell them the truth and will definitely do something.

She walked towards them." Mom dad aunty uncle I want to tell you guys something important." Amaya said....

______________

I believe action speak louder then words Vihaan Vihaan remembered her words , this is what she said when he asked her today morning about her decision, she didn't showed any emotion on her face.

Aradhaya was roaming around the mall absent mindly for some reason, her mind was restless and top of that Amaya's weird behavior was not leaving her mind.

"Vihaan ji let's go back I m not feeling good." Aradhaya finally said to Vihaan, he didn't asked anything as he to was restless.

They both reached and was greeted by the deathly silence, the atmosphere was filled with tension, she saw one of the servants.

"Bhaiya where is everyone." She asked.

The servant looked hesitated." Madam ji everyone is in Amaya madam room." The servant said.

Aradhaya walked towards Amaya's room and could hear loud voice frowning she entered inside but immediately froze.

"HOW COULD YOU GUYS PLAY WITH OUR TRUST LIKE THAT."  Mrs.patel shouted at Amaya.

Amaya standing without any emotion her gaze landed on the door and was surprised seeing a teary Aradhaya," Aru." She whispered surprised and everyone gaze landed on the girl.

Mrs.Patel looked at her angirly." Soo finally you are here , both the sisters who didn't thought twice before playing with everyone trust." Mrs Patel said to her.

"Mom.. what are you...." Aradhaya was saying but Amaya cut her off

"I told them everything Aradhaya, from our pretending to my modeling," Amaya paused and looked at her," including your love for Vihaan and vice versa." Amaya completed Making Aradhaya to look at her in horror.

"I always thought you to be my responsible, good daughter Aradhaya but you to supported her." Mr.Patel said.

Aradhaya looked down as tear appeared on her eyes." I felt ashamed to call you to my daughter, Vihaan is not our family Soo I don't have any right to say anything about him but you to , you to our my daughter and because of you to today reputation was buried in ground." Mrs.patel said.

She turned towards Amaya was standing there emotionlessly." For your dream you did all these right then be with your dream only , forget that you ever had any parents." Mrs.Patel said and Amaya controlled her tears.

Mrs.Patel turned towards Aradhaya." You were Soo blind in your love for your di nah then be with her only,." Saying this stormed out of the room followed by Mr.Patel.

Amaya looked at Aradhaya who was standing there stiffly while tears after tears slid down her face. She walked towards her and wiped her tears." Don't take mom and dad words to your heart, they are angry now, once their anger melts they will forgive us." Amaya said.

Aradhaya looked at her and bursted into tears."I m sorry diii....I m...such a...such a bad s...sister..." Aradhaya said hiccuping.

"I won't deny Aru that I was angry at you both but Aru...we can't control our heart right , but I won't lie I m angry at both of you but more than that I m hurt that you guys didn't told me the truth , I m not like those person who sacrifice their love instead I believe in move on if Vihaan would have told me this early then we could have just broke up with mutual understanding, I wouldn't had any problem with you guys relationship because even after breaking up with me he would have moved on or fall in love with someone then what's the problem if you are that girl, just because you are my sister agree it would be awkward in first but then with time everything would have been settled but instead you guys choose to hide, Aru what would have got by hiding it at least I wouldn't have felt this much hurt which I m feeling now, what you got Aru, even if I have married Vihaan then also after few years we would have been divorced." Amaya told her a little angirly while all the time Aradhaya was crying silently.

"B...b..b..but...if..I.. hadn't come between you to the..then.. nothing of.. this would... would have... happened." Aradhaya told her.

Amaya sighed and made her sit in the bed and kneeled down in front of her." Aru Vihaan had feelings for me Aru but I took them for granted still he never uttered a word for me but Aru what he feel for you is much more stronger and pure then what he felt for me, and if not you then someday we would have broken up because we were not meant to be." Amaya told her with a smile wiping her tears,

"But I m happy at least that my baby Sister is in a save and good hands and I got the chance to save two hearts from breaking." Amaya said.

"What about your heart di." Aradhaya asked.

"My heart , yup it's broken I will be alright soon because time ,life and Amaya doesn't stop for anyone it moves on and I will to move on , just have to heal this slight injury in the heart and then I m all good to again reach my dream but this time with open eyes and knowing the real meaning of ambitious, now give me a small smile."  Amaya said winking.

Aradhaya smiled a little but it didn't reached her eyes as she still felt hurt over the incident.

"Aradhaya, Amaya dear." They turned around to see Swastika standing on the doorway.

Amaya stood up from the floor." Aunty please come nah." She said.

" Vihaan talked with all of us." She said.

Aradhaya looked at her." Everyone of you hate me now nah." She asked with cracked voice.

Swastika shook her head and keep her hands on both girls head." No dear ,yes what you guys did was extremely wrong and we all disappointed at you all but you guys had your share of punishment to and me Vijay and Bhai think that we should give you guys a chance because people learn from their mistake and we feel that you guys are genuinely regretful for what you have done." Swastika said

"What about mala aunty." Amaya asked.

Swastika sighed." She is angry , you know her, she said that this marriage won't have her constant ." Swastika said and Aradhaya looked down with tears.

"Don't worry everything will be alright everyone are just angry they will soon forgive you all ." Swastika said and walked away.

Amaya saw Vivian and Vidushi standing on the doorway she smiled at them." Why are you standing there come inside." She said.

They entered inside sat beside Aradhaya, Aradhaya looked at them." Do you guys hate me." She asked.

"No Bhaabi, we are just a bit sad that you and Bhai didn't told us anything about it." Vidushi said.

"And for us it doesn't matter if you are Amaya or Aradhaya because for me you are always my Bhaabi." Vivian said grinning.

Amaya walked away from there as she knows they will cheer her up.

In mala's room

Amaya knocked on the door and Mala saw her standing." What are you doing here."  Mala asked coldly.

Amaya sighed and entered inside." Aunty I wanted to talk to you about something...." She said but mala cut her off,

"If you are here to talk about the married then I m firm on my decision I won't agree to this marriage because non of you know the real meaning of marriage and it's value." She told her sharply.

"Aunty I accept that whatever the three of us had done is a big mistake but aunty we learn from our mistakes right , won't you give us a chance to learn from our mistakes, trust me aunty we all have are equal share if punishment the punishment given by karma." Amaya said looking down.

Mala sighed." Fine even if I give you guys a chance, how can I believe that you guys truly are genuinely regretful and about this marriage I always saw Am.. Aradhaya as my daughter when she was with us but I never thought that she will do something like this." Mala said.

"Aunty we all have suffered, Vihaan who always had a battle with his heart and mind, Aru who was dieing in the guilt of developing forbidden feelings and me who was hurt by Vihaan's indifferent behavior, getting engaged with someone in front the girl is not less painful aunty , same with arranging the marriage rituals of your love , and me who now got to know that my sister and fiance hide this big thing, non of it is easy aunty and I think it's enough for us realize our mistake, and about Vihaan and Aradhaya , aunty I have seen today morning the deep of love in Vihaan's eyes for Aru it was much more than what he had for me, and Aru aunty she is way to naive that thinking Vihaan will be happy with me was ready to make her life a living hell, they love each other truly aunty, you have spent these many months with Aradhaya you know what kind of girl she is yes she did mistakes aunty but we learn from our mistakes right." Amaya told her and Mala looked thoughtful

"But about you you to loved Vihaan right." Mala asked.

"Aunty I m little different I believe that if a relationship doesn't have love then it's nothing but toxic and filled with poison and I would prefer dieing single then having this kind of relationship, I believe life is all about moving on and this small break up can stop me from moving on , life is not only about getting married to your boyfriend I still have my dream to achieve and build my career and I think these things are enough for me to move on." Amaya said with a smile and walked out.

She was walking out of the corridor when she saw Vihaan coming towards Mala room, " the work for which you are going is done Vihaan, aunty is pacified and you can expect her giving her approval for your and Aradhayas marriage anytime." She told him and started to walk away but stopped hearing his voice.

"I m so.." she cut him,

" Don't waste your sorry on me Vihaan because it's not going to earn you my forgiveness." Amaya told him.

"Then what should I do to earn your forgiveness." Vihaan asked turning towards her.

Amaya smiled and turned her head slightly towards him." Let's keep this for future, who knows in future maybe this offer get me something important." She said and walked away not knowing that how true her words going to be.

In evening

Amaya was talking with someone in the phone when Aradhaya knocked. Amaya saw her and cut the call,

"Come Aru." She said

"Di I want to talk with you." She said looking down.

Amaya hummed checking her Mobile." How did you know about all these." She asked.

" Vihaan, he wrote me a latter yesterday night as you made him promise that won't tell me anything that's why he wrote me a latter for which I am glad to him, in this way he saved me from a loveless marriage, which my own sister couldn't understand." Amaya said bitterly.

"I m sorry di...." Aradhaya said.

"Don't Aru Vihaan to told me the same thing and I m saying the same what I told him, your sorry won't work on me." She said turning away.

"Then I will do everything to earn your forgiveness." Aradhaya said.

Amaya smiled." Let's see baby sister, now tell me what did mala aunty said." She asked changing the topic.

"She agreed for the marriage and also said she will talk with mom and dad," Aradhaya said.

"That's a very good news but then why the bride is not looking happy." Amaya asked turning towards her.

"How can I be happy di when this marriage is giving nothing but pain to everyone." Aradhaya said as tears slide down her cheeks

Amaya sighed and side hugged her." Aru I didn't know you were this much stupid, how can this marriage is giving pain I everyone, mom and dad are not hurt Aru they are just angry at us for playing with everyone trust like that but they will soon forgive us because they are parents and no parents can stay angry at their child seeing them sad and about me Its natural for me to get hurt like this but if you stay like this in your marriage then I will be more hurt Soo common yaar smile I did Soo much hard work for you and in reward give me your sweet smile common." Amaya said and Aradhaya smiled at her at least.

"That's like my Aru baby , I bet that you will be the most beautiful bride." Amaya said smiling.

Aradhaya hugged her tightly Making her chuckle.till now everyone used to say that I m best sister di but you are the best sister anyone can ever get  Aradhaya thought as a tear slide down her eyes knowing how much her sister was suppressing behind that smile.
