==========================================
As Ishqi was still looking for her phone she heard Ahaan was already talking to police on his phone. He gave all the details and waited.
He started walking towards Ishqi but she stopped him with her hand
” I know you will blame my dressing for what happened” she said sadly, all energy drained. She was tired and exhausted both mentally and physically.
Ahaan was silent, his mind was reflecting what Ishqi said, but his heart was telling she was nowhere at fault.
“Ahaan there were so many women in the party today who were dressed like me. We have freedom to wear what we like till we are comfortable in it. Who is anyone to decide what we wear and what not? It’s the problem with the way men perceive us, and it’s not fair” unstoppable tears were rolling from her eyes now.
Ahaan thought about it, she was right there were so many women in the party dressed like that, so why Mr. singh target Ishqi even after him telling that she was his date tonight. Something seemed wrong here
“What were you doing here alone at such a secluded corridor” he asked trying to decipher.
Ishqi suddenly looked up as if surprised she had forgotten that point. Her face crunched as if in pain. “Rohan bought me here, and he left immediately”
Before Ahaan could react they heard running footsteps. They both turned to see it was Rohan.
“Ishqi.. ” he said and looked at her… he was disgusted at himself..
She came near him “why did you leave me here Rohan, as soon as you left Mr.Singh came” she looked straight in his eyes, seeking an answer, and hoping it was not what she was thinking.
He lowered his head, and Ishqi took a step back in defeat. So, he did it purposely, but the question was why, and she waited giving him time to explain. He looked at Ahaan” Riya asked me to bring you here. She said she only wanted to talk to you regarding Ahaan”
Ahaan and Ishqi looked at each other in surprise, Riya planned all this, but why was the question. What would she get by making Isqhi suffer? They both realised at the same time it was because of Ahaan.
“I will handle her, and I am waiting for you outside” Ahaan said and walked out.
Isqhi didn’t know what to say anymore, she never thought Rohan would side with Riya. He was her best friend at least that’s what she thought.
“I know what your thinking Ishqi, but please believe me I never thought Riya would fall to this extent, she said she only wanted to talk to you to leave Ahaan alone. Riya said she would take Ahaan with her and I thought I would get you after that. I was jealous that you were getting close to Ahaan, and more than that scared that I would lose you. When you really love someone, you will go to any extent to get them… unfortunately I chose the wrong path” he said going down on his knees, he had lost Isqhi forever. She wasn’t the person to believe again, her trust was broken.
“Maybe it was my fault too Rohan because my feelings were not clear. But after what happened today, they are very clear” she said pulling the ring from her finger and giving it to Rohan. Without lifting his head, as he couldn’t meet her eyes, he took it.
The police came and Isqhi recorded her statement. Ahaan came along with the police and gave his statement. The police assured them that they would take care of Mr.Singh.
Isqhi walked out, she was so numb from what happened today. She comes to Ahaan car and silently sits inside. Ahaan drives them to her home. Once home she goes inside and was about to close the door, when Ahaan stops her. Her silence was bothering him, she went though a lot today. He walks in and closes the door
“Ishqi, I am sorry about what happened today. I was wrong to think, that it was because of your attire. I am bought up that way, to think that a woman is in the wrong most of the time. Give me some more time to change my thinking. I know this doesn’t justify things, but give me a chance, I am trying my best” he pleaded
Seeing that Ishqi wasn’t responding to him he continued” My mom ran away when I was still a teenager, my granny told me it was because we were poor, and she wanted more money and was more interested in her career. My granny always said that a woman should choose and sacrifice for her family, for her family should be everything. And it’s a women’s mistake for things that happen to her” he was contemplating what he said, like for the first time he was actually thinking if it was right.
“You already know that all those things are not correct Ahaan” She wanted to ask more about his mom, but not now.
He came to her and hugged her, and she put her arms around him. She knew thinking won’t change so soon, its going to take time. She didn’t realise when she started crying, and Ahaan just let her remove all her miseries for away. She had lost her best friend, fiancée and faced molestation today. He carried her and slowly put her on the bed.
“Don’t go” she pleaded
“I am not going anywhere” he said and hugged her. And they just lay in each other’s arms, comforting each other. Once Ishqi slept Ahaan called Rohan, and made one more call and then again came and took Ishqi in his arms, he won’t leave Riya he thought and slept.
The next day morning Isqhi woke up and remembered the events of yesterday, and started searching for Ahaan, she finds a note on the table saying he left as he had to take care of a few things. She smiled seeing the toast, fruits with some milk as her breakfast which Ahaan kept for her.
Ahaan was in his home pacing and waiting when his doorbell rang. He eagerly oened the door and was unprepared for the hug he got which pushed him behind.
“Bhai I missed you so much” Karthik said hugging him tightly and still pushing him behind.
Ahaan just smiled, he loved his cousin so much, they were closer than blood siblings. Infact he was more closer to Karthik than Sonu, but he loved them both equally.
“Come on inside Riya” Karthik urged
