Youngsters came back after bid being the elders. They entered the hall and saw Ranjeet sitting on the couch engrossed in his phone. All departure to their room except Khanna and Shivay. They sat on the couch right next to the one on which Ranjeet is sitting.

"Khanna, you can't go against my will. I am telling you, I'll fire you if you didn't listen to my orders. I'll snatch your rights over the business and also over the Oberoi family." Shivay said in a high pinch of volume.

"Bhaiya, how can you say like that haan? I am a grown up man. I know how to take decisions for myself." Khanna shouted back.

"Khanna lower your voice. I am elder to you. Keep your voice down. U can't shout on me like that." Shivay shouted getting up from the couch in anger.

"What if you are elder to me? I can make my own decisions bhaiya. And, i have my shares in Oberoi family. You can't just fire me or kick me out from this house." Khanna also got up shouting even more. All the youngsters came to them. Ranjeet was enjoying the scene smirking.

"Shivay, Khanna.... What the hell is this haan? Didn't we already sort it out on the way?" Om came between them.

"Sort it out? You know what Om....." Shivay asked looking at Om sarcastically. Then he averted his gaze on Khanna.

"I shouldn't have taken anyone here just like that over my guilt. Its my bloody mistake that i considered him as my own brother. How can i forget, doesn't matter how we pretend, an outsider is always an outsider. He can't become our own blood and family is so far than that." Shivay roared with a sarcastic chuckle.

"Shivay...."

"Bhaiya..."

"Jiju..."

AniRiOmRu screamed. Shivay and Khanna looked into each other's eyes in rage. They left on different directions, without uttering a single word.

"What's happening guys. How can they just shout on eachother like that?"Rudy asked almost on the verge of crying.

"We'll talk to them. Don't worry." Om consoled him.

"What happened kids? Why are they shouting on eachother?" Ranjeet asked pretending to be concerned.

"Fufa ji, umm....." Om tried to find words.

"Fufa ji, Khanna love a girl. She is from a poor family. Shivay isn't ready to accept their relationship. We were returning back, when they both got into a fight over it. We had sorted it out and we thought that it was over but...." Anika said being sad and left her words incompleted indicating the event, taken place right now.

"I understand beta, don't worry, just try hard. He'll agree." Ranjeet said smiling lightly. Anika smiled a little. Youngsters left from there. Ranjeet smirked looking at the retreating figure of them.

"I already had my plans. But you guys just made it easy for me." Ranjeet said and laughed evilly.

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

Khanna was sitting at the poolside, dripping his legs inside the water. He felt a hand on his shoulder. He lifted his head and saw Ranjeet.

"Fufa ji, you..." He asked in a sad tone. Ranjeet sat beside him.

"Beta, i know you don't belong to the Oberois. But you have full right over here. It was only because of Shivay, that you lost your brother." Ranjeet said but immediately got interrupted by Khanna.

"How do you know that? You were not here when that accident happened?" Khanna asked raising his eyebrows.

"Uumm.... Tha... That....i... Go.... Got to.. Know fro.... From... My daughter? Yeah i got to know it from my daughter, she was here right?" He said stammering. Khanna nodded his head understanding the point.

"I know we are meeting for the first time. But i know everything about you. I know how much you had gone through. And now, he is trying to control over your whole life." Ranjeet said examining Khanna's facial expression, which have turned into a angry one now.

"Beta, you have to fight for your freedom and rights. I am with you. I will help you." Ranjeet said keeping his hand on Khanna's shoulder, showing his fake concern.

"Really fufa ji? Will you help me?" Khanna asked with a hopeful expression.

"Yes,But for that you have to pretend as if you have agreed with him." Ranjeet said.

"Yes fufa ji. I'll do whatever you say." Khanna said smiling lightly. Ranjeet smiled and hugged Khanna. Behind back, he smirked on the first succession of his plan.

Khanna's light smiled changed into a smirk. He looked towards the door of Shivay's room. There stood all the youngsters smirking at him. Khanna showed his thumps up and their smirk grew wider.

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

"Khannaaaaa....." Shivay ran and hugged him tightly, followed by the youngsters.

Its 1 am and everyone slept except, ShivOmRu Khanna and AniRi. Khanna just sneaked into Shivay's room secretly.

"I am proud of you Khanna. You just rocked it." Shivay said breaking the hug. Everyone smiled nodding. But shivay panicked watching tears in Khanna's eyes.

"Hey Khanna, what happened? Why are you crying? Did he hurt you? Just tell me, I'll kill him." Shivay asked being concerned and his hands turned into fist in anger, just by the thought of someone hurting his brother. Khanna shook his head crying. He kept his hand over Shivay's, which was cupping his cheeks.

"Khanna, just tell us what happend.. We'll sort it out together." Om said caressing his head.

"I... I am sorry.... Sorry bhaiya... I... I shouted on you..." Khanna cried looking down.

"Hey, shh... Its okay. It was just an act." Shivay consoled him rubbing off his tears.

"No bhaiya. Its not okay. How can i just shout on you like that." Khanna cried even more. Shivay shook his head and pulled him into a hug, stroking his head lovingly.

"Shh... Its okay. We have to do it. Its necessary for our plan. Even i shouted on you right. Even i am sorry for those words." Shivay said being guilty.

"No bhaiya, i know you just said that so that we can trap him in our plan." Khanna said hugging him tightly, shaking his head.

"So? You also shouted on me with the same purpose. It became equal. Now stop being Rudy." Shivay said pulling out from the hug.

"Hey bhaiya, what do you mean by, stop being Rudy?" Rudy asked with fake anger.

"I mean, stop being cry baby." Shivay said laughing.

"Bhaiyaaa..." Rudy whined annoyingly. And everyone laughed. Om smacked on his head.

"Okay, so our Fufa ji want me and Khanna to be separated. Well, lets play along with him. He want to use Khanna against me." Shivay said nodding his head understandingly.

"Khanna, go with the flow. We'll discuss our plan through our phones. Lets make a group." Shivay said and everyone nodded their head. Shivay made a whatsapp group and named it Fufa ki popat. He added everyone in the group.

"Wah bhaiya, you are getting too much inspired by bhabhi." Rudy said winking at him. Om Gauri and Khanna chuckled.

"Shut up." This time it was Shivay and Anika.

"Wah.... O, you are out. See, bhabhi took over your place." Rudy said patting Om's shoulder pretending to be sad.

"Shut up Rudy." Om smacked his head.

"Oh, so thats the matter." Everyone looked at him in confusion.

"Bhabhi made her own shut up place." Rudy said giving his logic sign. Everyone shook their head in disbelief.

"Okay guys listen, we'll message and just after read by everyone, we'll delete the message so that he don't get suspicious." Everyone nodded their head.

**********

Shivika were lying on the bed, both gazing at the ceiling.

"Anika..." Shivay called her still looking at the ceiling.

"Hmm..." She also hummed in response, looking at the ceiling.

"I love you..." He said out of nowhere, tilting his face towards her.

"Why so suddenly?" She asked looking at him with one eyebrow raised.

"I felt to..." He said smiling.

"Aahan?" She asked with a smirk.

"What? Don't you trust me?" Shivay frowned.

"Umm..." Anika acted as if she is thinking deeply.

"Anika?" He called her in a suspicious voice, glaring her.

"I guess its a..... yes?" She replied acting confused.

"You guess? Means you don't really think so?" He asked being shocked.

"By the way, you are so smart haa Billu ji." She said with a wide smile and showed her logic sign, teasing him.

"Yeah?" Shivay raised his eyebrows at her.

"Yes." She replied casually.

"Let me show you how smart i am." Shivay said and in nick of time, he hovered her.

"What are you doing Shivay?" Anika asked nervously.

"Romance... I guess?" Shivay asked in the same way Anika used.

"Are you copying me?" Anika asked giving him an angry glare.

"Haaawww..... How can i copy my Paanika?" Shivay asked nuzzling into her neck. Anika clutched on his shoulder and she pushed him a littled.

"Why are you always only on this track Shivay?" Anika asked blushing, trying to act angry.

"Yes thats the problem. I am always on this track. Its you who never come to this track." Shivay said coming close to her face.

"Come on Anika, lets get into the track na.." Shivay said again nuzzling into her neck.

"Shivayyy..." Anika moaned when she felt his lips on her neck. He back off and looked into her eyes. He slowly put his lips on her forehead. She closed her eyes smiling. Pulling back, she looked into her eyes. She smiled and pulled him over her and hugged him.

"Just a hug?" Shivay asked being in the hug. Anika smacked on his shoulder and he laughed a little.

"Cheapde." Anika whispered.

"Thank you for the compliment." Shivay said and pulled out from the hug and laid beside her. Anika snuggled into his chest. Shivay wrapped his hands around her, hugging her close to him. He kissed on the top of her head. Anika also wrapped her hands around him. She looked up into his face.

"What?" Shivay asked watching her gaze on him. Anika slowly raised herself till his face and placed her lips on his. Shivay smiled in the kiss. He pulled her over him and deepened the kiss. They broke the kiss out of lack of oxygen.

"Thank you for the wish. Good night Anika." Shivay said winking at her. Anika blushed and kept her head on his chest. He wrapped his hand around her smiling.

"Good night Shivay." She wished him back. Both fell into sleep, waiting for the next day.
