It was another day in the lives of Shivaay, Anika and Kiara. Anika was still unaware of the condition which Shivaay was About to put in front of her. She was ready to give them any amount they want. She knew that their lives were already miserable and she only added to their miseries and she regretted each second for the crime she committed.

She went to her home and changed her clothes. She dumped the wedding dress in the dustbin. Her heart pained that how her dreams shattered in a single moment.

She got dressed in a white salwar kameez, packed some lunch for Shivaay and Kiara.

Kiara was also staying at the hospital as Shivaay didn't trust Anika to send Kiara with her.

She drove towards the hospital and directly went to Shivaay's room. She saw that Kiara was all dressed up in a grey t-shirt and yellow shorts. She was sleeping on Shivaay's chest while Shivaay was caressing her hair gently.

A- Good morning.

Shivaay looked at her with a smirk.

S- Oh look who's here? Anika Raizada, daughter of the most richest man in India, Adhiraj Raizada.

Anika looked at him in shock.

A- How do you know me? I never told you about myself.

S- Well. I have my sources. So don't you have any parlour appointments or spa to go to. Why are you wasting your time here?

Shivaay asked Anika with hate dripping from his voice.

A- Look, I'm not like those spoiled rich kids who spoil other's life.

S- But you already spoiled mine.

Anika looked at him with teary eyes. She was rich but she never wanted the money. She craved for love but she received her parents' love only in form of money and cards. She had everything in her life except one thing which she wanted the most, someone to share her feelings with.

She cleared her throat as she could feel a lump in her throat.

A- I... I... Brought food for you and Kiara.

S- Why? Does it have poison so that you can get rid of us and your crime? I'm sure you, rich people are quite good at hiding their crimes.

Anika shook her head in negative while controlling her tears.

A- Look....

Anika was about to say something when Kiara woke up from her sleep and rubbed her eyes.

S-Hey angel. I told you not to rub your eyes when you wake up. It might harm your eyes baby.

Shivaay said while gently holding her hand to stop her from rubbing her eyes. He gently took a cloth and wiped her eyes. Kiara smiled at Shivaay.

K- love you rockstar.

S- Rockstar loves you too.

Shivaay said while tickling her and she burst into laughter.

Anika was admiring the duo.

Kiara looked at Anika and her face brightened with happiness.

K- Hello doll.

Anika smiled at her.

A- Hi Kiara. How are you?

Kiara smiled shyly.

K- I'm good.

Anika chuckled at her shyness.

A- Look I brought food for both of you.

Kiara squealed in joy.

K- Woowwww.. I love food.

Kiara said excitedly while Anika chuckled and Shivaay was glaring at Anika.

Anika avoided Shivaay's glare and arranged a table on the bed. She served Khichdi, baked fish, salad and noodles on the table.

Kiara was looking at the food in amazement.

She was about to serve the food in Shivaay and Kiara's plate when she was stopped by Shivaay.

S- Eat.

Anika looked at him in Confusion.

A- what?

S- Eat. I don't wanna risk our safety again, right.

Anika's eyes filled with tears and she ate a spoonful of every dish.

S- Good. Now serve because I'm really hungry.

Anika served Khichdi and salad to Shivaay and was about to serve Noodles to Kiara when Shivaay stopped her.

S- She can't eat that. It's not good for her health.

Anika frowned at Shivaay.

A- What do you mean?

Shivaay was about to say something when Kiara jumped in between the conversation.

K- Yes doll. Doctor uncle said I can't eat this because my liver is bad and I can die.

Anika looked at Kiara in shock.

S- Angel, how many times I told you not to say that word again? It's bad and nothing will happen to you, okay.

Kiara nodded her head with a small smile.

K- Sorry Rockstar. I won't say it again.

Shivaay nodded his head with a smile. Anika was still shocked with the revelation.

A- I... I... Did... Didn't....

S- It's alright. She can eat fish and salad.

Kiara nodded her head with excitement.

K- Do you want to know a secret?

Kiara asked Anika and she nodded her head.

K- Fish is my favourite.

She said licking her lips and Anika chuckled at her.

Anika served the food to them and they ate in silence.

It was evening and Kiara was sleeping on the bed beside Shivaay. Anika went to talk to the doctor and when she returned to the room, she saw Shivaay was trying very hard to move his legs but there was no sign of any movement in his legs. His eyes was filled with tears.

Anika walked towards him with teary eyes.

A- I'm so sorry.

It was a mere whisper but Shivaay heard it. He immediately wiped his tears and looked at Anika with bloodshot eyes.

S- Your sorry wouldn't make me walk again. Your sorry wouldn't stop my career from being spoiled. Your sorry won't do anything. Get that.

Tears started making their way through Anika's eyes.

A- I already told you that I'll do anything to make things right.

Shivaay clutched her arm in a death grip and glared at her furiously.

S- Are you sure you'll do anything to make things right?

Anika nodded her head as tears were continuously flowing from her eyes.

S- Okay then Marry me.

Anika looked at him in shock.

A- Wh...what?

S- Yes. You made me like this now one would want to spend their life as my life partner and take care of me and Kiara for whole life. So you'll be the one to do that. You spoiled our lives, now I'll make you a part of our spoiled lives. You wanted a perfect marriage with your lover right, now you'll have the most imperfect marriage.

Anika was crying badly. She wanted to make things right but sacrifising her whole life in a marriage with no love. How can she do that?

But Shivaay was right. She was the reason why he was there. She looked at Kiara who was sleeping soundly. She was suffering so much from such a small age and how will she take care of herself and her uncle. If she has to sacrifice her life to give a good life to Two lives, the she was ready.

She looked at Shivaay who was looking at her furiously.

A- I'm....I'm ready. I'll marry you.

Shivaay looked at Anika in shock but soon he covered his shock with a smirk.

S- Good. Get ready, to-be wifey. We'll be getting married tomorrow.

Anika nodded her head and left the room.

She was walking on the road while it was raining. She suddenly felt that she has no strength left in her body and she fell down on her knees.

All the events from past 24 hours flashed in front of her eyes and she cried her heart out.
