Episode 14
Hi guys, today I have brought a longer episode for you as I wouldn’t be able to post tomorrow, actually I am going out of town, so won’t be able to post. But to compensate for it, I have brought a longer episode so you don’t miss me much. Please you also do comment. See you soon.
Now let’s continue with the story,
RECAP: Ishana decides to meet Om’s mom…..Om worried how to handle it……Pinky decides she’ll get Anika married to Arjun at any cost……Rumya have nok-jhok moments
At present, Oberoi Office,
Anika’s cabin,
Shivaay knocks on the door, Shivaay: May I come in?
Anika: Yes
Shivaay: Ma’am, Shakti Sir has sent these papers, he wants you to check them once so that I can prepare the final presentation.
He hands over the file, Anika takes it and starts reading,
Anika: It’s perfect, you can prepare for the presentation and see that everything goes according to plan, this deal is really imp for us.
Shivaay: Don’t worry ma’am, I’ll make such a khidkitod presentation, sab dekhte reh jayenge.
Anika: What is it with you, can’t you speak in normal language and dare you use any of it in the meeting.
Shivaay: What is your problem, why are you always behind my language?
Anika: You are my problem, your language is my problem, your answering back is my problem, your attitude is my problem, and everything about you is a problem.
Shivaay: I didn’t know, you notice so much about me.
Shivaay said giving a smirk, Anika looked at him in shock.
Anika: What do you mean? I don’t notice you. Don’t waste my time, I have imp work rather than arguing with you.
Shivaay: To main bhi vela nahi hu, I also have work.
Anika: Then do it, I pay you for that only.
Shivika give each other attitude looks, Shivaay turns to go but bumps into Arjun.
Shivaay: I am so sorry, I didn’t see you.
Arjun: Its ok bro, even I was in a hurry to meet my would be wife. (He said looking at Anika who was surprised to see him)
Shivaay leaves from there but he was constantly looking at Anika’s cabin.
Anika: Arjun, you here?
Arjun: Actually, I came here to take you.
Anika: Take me, where?
Arjun: To the jewelry store, to by our engagement rings. Pinky aunty suggested it. So shall we?
Anika fake smiled and nodded a yes.
Anika (thinking): Mom, she doesn’t have any other work.
Shivaay sees Anika leaving with Arjun.
Shivaay (thinking): Why is she affecting me so much? Why I feel bad seeing her with someone else? Why do I always end up arguing with her? Why is she becoming a part of my life…..Oh God……what is happening to me?
Shivaay sat down thinking about his moments with Anika in Lonavala, a smile crept on his face as he remembered their time with each other.
Omkara’s house,
Ishana rings the doorbell, Om opened the door and was surprised to see Soumya with Ishana. He smiled at both of them and welcomed them.
Omkara: Please feel comfortable, I know my house is not like OM….
Ishana: Insaan ka ghar nahi, dil bada hona chahiye.
Ishana smiled at Om who returned a fake smile.
Soumya: Now how is your mom, Om Bhaiya?
Omkara: She is fine. What will you have tea, coffee?
Ishana: No formalities, we are fine. We’ll like to meet your mom.
Omkara: Sure, come, this way.
Om led them to the other room, where a lady was resting, she smiled as she saw Ishana and Soumya.
Omkara: Maa, she is Ishana, my friend and she is Soumya, her sister.
Ishana: Hello aunty, ab aap kaisi hai?
Lady: I am fine beta, thank you for visiting. Om told me how you helped him, thank you so much beta.
Ishana: Arre aunty, no need to say thank you. I did what I felt was right.
They talked for a while, Om was happy as his plan worked.
Omkara: Maa, you should rest now.
Ishana: Haa aunty, we should also leave.
Soumya: Nice meeting you.
Lady smiled. Ishkara and Soumya come out.
Omkara: Bye.
IshSou: Bye.
IshSou reached near the car,
Soumya: Looks like I forgot my mobile at Om Bhaiya’s house, I’ll get it.
Ishana: Come fast.
Omkara’s house,
Soumya was about to knock the door when she heard Om talking,
Omkara: Take this, you did a great job.
Soumya sees Om giving the lady some cash, she smiles and takes it.
Lady: All this is Ok, but what you are doing is wrong.
Omkara: You don’t teach me, take your money and leave.
The lady leaves, Soumya was shocked to hear this.
Soumya (thinking): Why did he give her money and asked her to leave…..what was she saying…what you are doing is wrong…..kahi Om Bhaiya kuch galat…..No…I have to find out…..it is for Ishu.
Soumya goes in,
Soumya: Bhaiya
Om looks at her and is shocked,
Omkara: Soumya, tum, kya hua?
Soumya: I forgot my phone here.
She picks her phone, smiles and leave. Om feels relieved.
Soumya was walking to the car lost in thoughts,
Soumya (thinking): What was that lady saying……what wrong is Om Bhaiya doing…….should I tell Ishu….no, she would get worried unnecessarily……..and Anika Di is already in her own mess……I shouldn’t tell them……but then who…..haa….it will be right…
She took her mobile and dialed Rudra’s number,
Soumya: Rudra, I need your help, meet me in one hour at Café Coffee Day.
She disconnected the call and went to where Ishana was waiting. They drove back to OM.
One hour later, Café Coffee Day,
Soumya and Rudra were sitting at a corner table so no one would disturb them. The waiter served them and went.
Rudra: what happened Soumya? You said you need help, is everything fine?
Soumya: I don’t know if everything is fine or not.
Rudra (confused): what do you mean, you don’t know?
Soumya: Actually….. (she tells him about what she heard at Om’s house) I don’t know if there is anything to worry about or not but I think something is wrong.
Rudra: I don’t think so, Om Bhaiya is a nice guy. You may have some MU.
Soumya: Maybe but I won’t keep quiet until I confirm it myself.
Rudra: so talk to him only, why waste time thinking stories here.
Soumya: No, we can’t.
Rudra: But why, what’s the problem?
Soumya: If he is really up to something, he would fool us also.
Rudra: You are right, btw I didn’t know you are this smart.
Soumya: What do you mean, I am stupid?
Rudra: No, I didn’t mean that. Just chill.
Soumya: Ek toh I am so tensed and you are making fun of me.
Rudra: Arre, I didn’t mean that, sorry.
Rudra made a sorry face and Soumya smiled.
Oberoi Mansion,
Ishana was sitting near the window in her room, looking at the beautiful lawn of OM, she was lost in thoughts,
Ishana (thinking): I met him just two weeks ago and we bonded so quickly, I usually don’t open up so much to outsiders but he, he is someone different…..unique in his own way……how much pain his eyes have…..although he smiles always…..I know deep down he is hurt….he has suffered pain…….he is not like other guys I have met, who become my friend because of my status…..he is my friend because I am Ishana……he is so nice……I have never met someone like him ever.
Shivaay’s house,
Shivaay came home after a busy day at work, only to find the empty house, its loneliness coming onto his nerves, from the time he understood the world and how it works, he was lonely, no one to talk to, no one he could share his feelings with, no one to care for him, no one and no one…….tears appeared in his eyes…….He sat down on the floor lost in thoughts.
*FLASHBACK*
Shivaay was eleven years old, he was sitting on the stairs of the orphanage, he was watching the kids playing, some boys came to him and started teasing him, Shivaay ignored them and walked to some other place but they continued following him and teasing him, Shivaay was irritated now, he turned to them,
Shivaay: Why are you all teasing me? What did I do?
Rohan: Our wish, we’ll tease you or do whatever.
Shivaay: Stop teasing me otherwise……
Sohail: Otherwise, what will you do…you can’t do anything.
They all start laughing which enraged Shivaay more and he punched one of them. The boys starting beating him but Shivaay was no less, he fought back all of them. That day he understood, he had to fight his battle alone, no one would ever be by his side.
*FLASHBACK ENDS*
At night, Oberoi Mansion,
Anika’s room,
Anika was busy working on something when she heard a knock on the door, she looked up to see Ishana standing there,
Anika: Ishu, aa naa, you don’t have to knock.
Ishana: I thought you are busy.
Anika: I always have time for my sisters, never busy for them.
Ishana sat beside Anika,
Ishana: Anika, you are happy naa?
Anika: What do you mean?
Ishana: Are you happy with this wedding? Are you sure, you want to marry Arjun?
Anika: I am happy, Arjun is the perfect partner, he has everything, money, power, status and most importantly NKK.
Ishana: Really Anika, that’s it you only care for NKK. Don’t you think relations need something more than just NKK?
Anika: See Ishu, I know for you all this doesn’t matter. You believe in love, understanding and all, but I don’t have time for all this.
Ishana: I know Anika Singh Oberoi is very busy. But remember one thing, marriage is lifetime commitment, don’t do anything that’ll make you regret it later.
Anika: Anika Singh Oberoi doesn’t regret her decisions. If I have taken it, I have thought about it.
Ishana: as you say, we are always with you.
Anika smiled, Anika: I know that.
PRECAP: Rumya shocked…….Ishkara moments…….Shivika moments
