Anika's pov.

"What will you explain Anika? Are you saying what I saw was all an act? Do I look blind?" I felt pain not physically but emotionally, my heart ached knowing that my Shivaay doesn't trust me? Is he really judging me without knowing the real truth? "Tell me dammit! I wanna know. I winced as his nails pierced into my skin. He was so overpowered by anger that he wasn't able to see my pain.

"Shivaay you are hurting me!" A tear escaped my eyes.

"No dammit! You are hurting me here!" he said pointing towards his heart. "But you are hurting me by questioning my love for you!" I shouted being angry.

"Then what can I conclude seeing my girlfriend kissing another man?" he moved closer, our lips were just mere inch apart from getting touched.

"For the god sake, i'm telling you for 5th time that we were not kissing but acting!" he had confused look on his face to which I explained how Shaurya wanted to make his ex-girlfriend Durga jealous and he asked me to help in his plan and how I tried denying the kiss part but before we could think of other way Durga came there and how you(Shivaay) misunderstood us.

"Shi*!" he cursed running  hands in his hairs while I winced as my both wrist had turned purple forming bruise on them.

 "I'm so sorry baby, actually I.." I showed my palm making him stop .

"Save it for later." I moved towards door only to be pulled back in his arms.

"Shivaay just let me go!" I tried to wriggle out of his hold but he was too strong for it.

"I'm sorry baby, you know right when I'm angry I speak things which I don't want too! I know my apology is not enough but I'm sorry from the bottom of my heart. Please forgive me." I decided to give him silent treatment because it was not the first time he had mistrusted me.

Flashback..

After being at bed-rest for a month. I decided to join office back as much work was pending even though I had completed half of it through home. During those days Shivaay was busy grabbing deal with Malhotras, it was really important deal for him as one mistake deal will go out of his hand. Being busy in my own work I would hardly get time to meet Shivaay and so does he. One day ,I decided to surprise Shivaay so I made my way towards his office. Greeting the receptionist, I made my way inside his office without knocking and was shocked to see Shivaay and a girl in intimate position.

"Uh..Anika it's not what it looks like, Actually she slipped and.."

"Shivaay you don't need to explain." I interrupted him.

"Oh! Anika meet her Ragini Malhotra and Ragini she is my best friend Anika Trivedi." he introduced us while I shook my hands with her giving her polite smile while she smiled which seemed to be forced.

Days passed and several news channel and newspapers had headline about Shivaay and Rgini being together? My heart pained when I saw them together. Maybe because I had started liking him.

14th May, it was my birthday. I had being waiting for Shivaay's call and message but it never came. Did he forgot that it was my birthday today? I waited and waited but my patience seem to be running by time. I decided to call him only to find his phone is out of reach. I decided to go at his office and confront him but I had never knew that I was gonna receive biggest shock of my life. "Shivaay!" I entered his room only to find many people sitting their including Ragini. His face showed stress, something was not right.

"Is everything okay?" I asked moving towards him.

"Umm..Anika we have an issue here and you are been suspected for it!" he stood up moving closer while I stood their confuse.

"Watch this!" he said showing me the clip where I went inside his office room and moved out hurriedly with black folder in my hand."

"Uh! Can you elaborate it!" I asked to which he nodded.

"Anika the deal papers which Oberoi's are gonna sign with Malhotras went missing day before yesterday and.."

"Stop! " I said as everything made sense. "Are you indirectly accusing me for stealing deal papers?" I asked moving back.

"Yes! " Came the voice from other side of the room and the person was none other than Ragini Malhotra.

"Shut up Ragini" Shivaay tried stopping her to which I stopped him showing my palm.

"How are you so sure that I am behind all this fiasco?" I asked crossing my arms. I was so angry right now.

"See this video where I entered with black folder that contained deal papers and once me and Shivaay went out of the room you entered in his room and grabbed the folder moving out quickly." she completed with smirk on her face.

I turned towards Shivaay and asked "Shivaay do you believe I could do such cheap thing?" I looked straight into his eyes hoping he would say No but to my surprise he remained quite breaking my heart into pieces.

"What will he say Anika,all proofs are against you." said Ragini. I felt like slapping her, somehow I controlled myself from bursting.

"I cannot expect such thing from you Shivaay. Even though you are silent but your silence is one way of accusing me for the thing which I have never done. You think I can stoop so low for such deal then let me show you what's whole damn truth. Just wait and watch saying this I called Khanna and asked him to forward all cctv phootage from noon 12pm to evening 5pm.
Later with all the proofs, it was proven that it was Ragini who had planned all this fiasco so that 

Shivaay starts hating me and she can marry him. She was a complete psycho who was mastermind of this plan but alas! I proved myself innocent.
But after that day my and Shivaay's relation had taken complete 360 degree change.

Flashback over.

....to be continued.
