Aarushi POV

When I was in a deep sleep, I heard someone banging on the door. I was sleepy but there was continuous knocking on the door. I rubbed my eyes and found myself sleeping on Rithwik's chest. He was sleeping soundly. I removed his hand from my waist and sat up from the bed. I tied my messy hair in a bun and walked towards the door. I was shocked to see Ishita was standing in front of me. I didn't expect her to be in this home. 

She was accusing me as she didn't know the truth. Then I noticed Raagini's person was watching us. So I wanted to act as I wanted to hurt Ishita in front of her. I showed our marriage photos on my smartphone. But her eyes stuck to me and Rithwik. 

I observed tears in her eyes and felt very bad for me because I experienced the same pain a few months back. When the maid left the place, immediately I dragged her into the guest room and closed the door.

" Ishu...please listen to me," I pleaded with her.

" How dare you talk to me? I wonder how you acted as a friend all these days?" She yelled at me. 

Rithwik opened his eyes when he heard Ishita's voice. He sat up from the bed and was amused to see Ishita in our room.

" Ishita...when did you come?" He asked her.

" Why? Are you disturbed by my presence?" Ishita mocked him.

" If you loved her and wanted to marry her then did you marry me? Why did you spoil my life? Why did you break my heart? What have I done to you? " She questioned him and finally broke into tears.

I placed my hands around her shoulder to support her. But she pushed me in anger but I balanced myself not to fall.

" Aaru….Are you okay?" Rithwik asked, running towards me.

I nodded my head and looked at Ishita. She looked at me with concern and guilt. I walked towards Ishita and asked her to give me a few minutes to speak. She turned her face with anger. I took my mobile and opened the gallery to show her our marriage photos. I wanted her to notice Rishab standing behind us.

" Why are you showing those photos again? Are you not satisfied by hurting me?" She shouted.

" Observe the photos keenly. You will find the truth…" I told her, keeping my finger at Rishab's face.

As soon as she noticed Rishab with us, her expression changed to shock. She looked at me and Rithwik with a question mark expression. 

" What is happening here?" She asked us.

" He is my twin brother, Rishab. Your….husband" Rithwik informed in a low voice.

" What? " she screamed.

" Please talk in a low voice. If someone hears our conversation then our family will be in danger" I warned her.

" What are you talking about?" Ishita asked as if I was talking in the French language.

" As per my knowledge, Rithwik is the only son to Abhi uncle and Jhanavi Aunty. How can he be a twin brother to Rithwik?" Ishita asked us?

Rithwik explained everything in detail to Ishita because we cannot talk outside the room. 

" Then where is your twin brother? How dare he marry me by cheating? " Ishita asked Rithwik angrily.

" Still he is helping that devil?" She asked Rithwik.

" Ishu…before I tell you this matter. Be strong." I said, holding her hands.

" Tell me. I am strong to face problems" she replied to me.

" Rishab was fired by the bullet and his head was injured. He is in a coma now. We don't know when he will be conscious, " I told her.

" He would have died. Why do you save him? Ishita said, making us shocked.

" What are you talking about, Ishita? He is your husband" I said, looking at her.

" He is not my husband and I am not his wife. He cheated me in the name of marriage. I don't want to be the wife of such a person" she declared.

" But he loves you so much. He has changed into a good person. Just give him one chance, " Rithwik said.

" He is your brother and that is why you are supporting him. You can forgive him  but I can't." She told him.

Then she continued, " Do you know how I am feeling now? You cannot ….because ...You are not in my place. Till now, I am unaware of my husband's identity. I don't whom am I now, wife of Rithwik or wife of Rishab. Legally I am Rithwik's wife but in real Rishab is my husband ". 

" Ishu...do you love Rithwik?" I asked her.

She stared at me without blinking her eyes and nodded her head as NO. Tears rolling down her cheeks. I wiped it and hugged her. She cried holding me tightly for a while.

" Ishu...I can understand your pain Please don't cry" I consoled her.

" I am sorry to accuse you without your mistake" she apologized to me.

" I am so sorry. Everyone in your family is hating you because of me. I don't want to stay here." Ishita told Rithwik with guilt.

" It's okay. Whatever I am doing is for our families. I hope everything will end soon and we will begin our happy life" Rithwik said, patting her head.

She smiled at him and walked out of our bedroom. As I worried about Rishab and Ishita, the same happened. After completing my morning business, we went to the dining hall to have our breakfast. While eating, we didn't utter a single word. 

" I am going back to my home on the evening flight," Ishita said while munching her food.

"Don't you want to see Rishab for once?" I whispered in her ears.

" I signed the divorce papers. I need your sign so that legally I am not a wife to Rithwik" she told Rithwik without replying to my question.

" It will be no problem to your future if we get a divorce legally," Ishita whispered so that I could only hear her words.

" Ishu...once go and visit Rishab. He only reminded you before he went into an unconscious state. I saw his love for you in his eyes. Maybe your presence will improve his health. Please..." I whispered 

She looked at me with many emotions and left the place without having breakfast when her mobile started ringing. I and Rithwik stared at each other. I felt bad for her but I don't how can I help her.

She came back to us and informed us that her friend is coming from Mumbai.

" What is the name of the person?" I asked curiously.

" Shravan... my best friend" She informed us.
