'Arey annika! Don't worry. Bhai itna paisa hai uske paas hum ilaaj krwayenge uska ache se'('He has lots of money we'll get his treatment done properly') It was her chachi who tried to console her but instead of consoling she was adding more to her wounds. Everyone looked at her angrily as instead of concerning about shivaay she was thinking about his money.

       But annika wasn't in a state to understand anything. She was just thinking about her shivaay. Only one thing was running in her mind that her shivaay was in danger. Rudra shook her bringing her out of her thoughts. Tears escaped her eyes looking at him.

       'Bhabhi! We should go to hospital. Bhaiya needs us.' He said with choked voice. She nodded crying.

      'Yes! My shivaay needs me. He needs me.........' she kept saying this in trance while rudra took her towards the car crying vigorously seeing his superwoman's condition. Everyone else followed them.

       'Can't you control your tongue? What was the need to talk about money now?' Mihir, annika's chacha whispered in neelam,  annika's chachi's ear while she ignored him royally.

         'You don't poke your nose in between my work. You couldn't do anything but now i have completed our work then you still have problem.' She retorted back......

______________________________________

       They reached the hospital and annika immediately rushed out of the car towards the hospital. Asking from the receptionist about her lifeline, she ran towards the operation theatre where her love was fighting for his life. She looked at him through the glass door. Her heart ached seeing so many machines attached to his body. He was looking so pale. Her tears start flowing continously.

      She felt a hand on her shoulder and turned to see pinky looking at her teary eyed. She immediately hugged her tightly crying.

        'Why? Why always me maa? Maine kya bigaada hai kisi ka. God has already snatched everything from me but ab shivaay ko khone ki himmat nahi hai mujhme. Mar jaungi main.'('What wrong have i done to someone? I don't have the courage to loose shivaay. I'll die') she again ended up crying hardly. Pinky caressed her hair trying to calm her down when she herself was breaking down. After all he was her son and no mother can bear a single scratch on her child and here her son was on the verge of dying.

         Pinky made annika sit on the nearby bench. Omru brought water for her but she denied saying that she won't eat anything until he gets fine. They still tried but she was adamant too. Omru were trying to stay strong for her but it was tough for them as well. If they were his heart them he was their heartbeat. They can't live without their great wall of SSO.

       After few hours, doctor came out with a dejected face. Annika immediately rushed to him.

       'Doctor! How's he? Is he fine? Is he asking for me?'

       'You?' Doctor asked looking at her.

      'I'm his wife.' She replied with a thumping heart.

       'See Mrs Oberoi! I won't give you false hopes. He's really in a critical condition. There is a major blood clot in his head. I think because of the breaking of windshield the glass pieces pierced his head. Though we had removed all those but he's still not out of danger.' 
 
         Annika cupped her face listening to doctor. She couldn't digest the fact the he had to bear so much. Her heartbeat became erratic. She started breathing heavily in tension. She was about to fall down when omru caught her from both sides. She looked at them.

     'Om....ru...tum.....tumne su...suna....shiv....mere shiv.........' she couldn't speak because of her heavy breathing. They rubbed her back to calm her down. After sometime she composed herself.

       'Doctor! Can i meet him please?'

     Doctor couldn't refuse seeing a wife's pleading eyes to meet her badly injured husband. He nodded. She went inside his room and sat beside him holding his hand carefully trying not to hurt him. Her tears again started flowing.

       'Shiv! Aap kaise kar sakte ho mere saath aisa? Aapko pta hai na ke main nhi ji sakti aapke bina. Toh kyu kar rahe aisa. Aap hi bolte ho na ke meri aankhon mein aasun nhi dekh sakte toh phir kyu rulaa rahe ho mujhe. Shiv! Uthiye na please. Ple....please main mar jaungi aapke bina. Please. Okay! Main aapko kabhi nahi daatungi speed se gaadi chalaane ke liye. Main kabhi aapko billuji nahi bulaungi. Main kabhi aapke baal khraab nahi karungi. Main aapko raat mein kaam krne se nhi rokungi. Main kabhi aapko kiss karne se mana nahi karungi. Aap hamesha kehte ho na ke main aapko romance nahi krne deti toh main abse nhi rokungi aapko. Aap jitna chahe utna romance kar lijiyega par please uth jayiye please. Mere liye uth jayiye na........' ('Shiv! How can you do this with me? You know na i can't live without you then why are you doing this? You only say na that you can't see tears in my eyes then why are you making me cry? Shiv! Get up na please. Pl....please...i'll die without you. I won't scold you for driving car with high speed. I won't call you billuji. I won't mess your hair. I won't stop you from working in the night. I won't stop you from kissing me. You always say na that i don't let you romance so i won't stop you from now on. You can romance as much as you want but get up na. Ple....please for me get up.....') she burst out crying keeping her forehead over his. She caressed his face which was looking so pale.

            She was missing him badly. His captivating eyes which always make her loose her senses. His alluring smile which always make her fall more for him. His rough yet gentle hands on waist which always hold her whenever she try to runaway. His tempting lips which always erupt thousands of butterflies in her tummy whenever he kiss her. His cute pout which always melt her heart when she has to go with omru or with any other family member leaving him. His adorable complaints which always make her smile whenever she leaves him to go to her devars. She was missing his everything.

       Suddenly, her tear fell over his cheek which made him breath heavily. She called the doctor and went outside not before requesting him to make him alright. Doctor assured her.

        After sometime, doctor came outside smiling. He told everyone that shivaay was out of danger now making everyone breath a sigh of relief. Omru hugged annika from either sides and she smiled faintly hugging them back.........

      Two days later

     Annika was feeding him soup which he was eating silently without making her feel worried. They were in their room at Oberoi Mansion. He got discharged today since he didn't want to be in the hospital environment. She cleaned his face after feeding him and gave him his medicines when omru along with priyanka entered the room.

       'Bhaiya! Kaise ho?'('How areyou?')

    'I'm fine' Shivaay ruffled rudra's hair with smile on his face. They all sat beside him and started chitchatting. Rudra made annika laugh over his silly jokes while shivaay smiled seeing his queen laughing whole-heartedly after two days which felt like eternity to him.

      Days started passing like this. Annika took full care of him. She didn't let him go to office even after him pursuading her. Though he was all fit and fine but his over protective wife didn't let him do anything.

       One day, annika was passing through the corridor when she heard someone saying some hateful words about shivaay.

     'He had a good fate that he got survived. We tried a lot to kill him but still....let it be. Now we should plan something big which will finish him immediately.' Said a woman to a man who was smirking.

       'Don't worry darling! I have a plan to kill that lucky man.' Replied the man to her.

       Tears escaped annika's eyes. She leaned to the wall crying. How can these two do this with shivaay. Shivaay and annika always considered them as their own parents but they tried to kill him.

       She entered her room crying. He looked at her confused.

      'Annika!'

      She hugged him placing her head over his chest crying. He hugged her back caressing her hair.

      'Jaan what happened?'

     She was crying continously.

     After sometime she composed herself and looked at him. He raised his eyebrows asking what but she shook her head saying nothing.
 
        'Woh! I remembered your accident which made me feel emotional.' She lied to him in order to not make him worry. He sighed kissing her forehead.

     At night

     Everyone fell asleep in their rooms when shivaay got call from his office for an urgent meeting. He couldn't ignore it as it was imprtant. He separated annika from him who was sleeping hugging him tightly. He left from there after changing his night suit.

       He was going in the hall towards the gate when suddenly the chandelier fell directly over him and the glass pieces pierced his whole body.

         The man and woman came there with smirk on their faces. They checked his breathing and he wasn't breathing at all. They both rejoiced seeing it.

       The woman hugged the man tightly who laughed seeing his wife so happy.

      'We did it. Yes! We did it. We killed him after a lot of efforts. We had to put a lot of efforts. We gave him poison. We caused his accidents. But he always survived. Now he's finally dead and his whole property will be ours.'

        They were laughing when the lights turned on and they heard a sound of claps. He looked towards the stairs and their face went pale seeing annika coming down along with the family members clapping her hands. They started shivering.

     Annika's face turned into an angry one. She was looking at them as if she will eat them raw.

      'Why?' She asked coldly.

    'Be....beta! Wo....' the woman spoke stammering.

      'I asked whyyyyyyyy?' Annika roared which made them both shiver but soon her anger subsided feeling a hand on her shoulder. She looked to her left and smiled faintly see him.

      The man and woman stood shocked seeing shivaay all fit and fine. They looked at the person lying on the floor underneath the broken chandelier and got scared see a statue over there. Shivika smirked looking at their pale faces.

       They knew now they don't have any option other than saying the truth.

       'Yes! We did it. We tried to kill him to gain his property. Last month when we came to celebrate his birthday we got to know that after his death his whole property would be on annika's name. And it was an easy task for us to snatch the property from her so we tried to kill him but failed everytime.'

       Annika cried seeing them. Are they really her chacha chachi who tried to kill her husband.

      'Kyu? Kyuuuuuuu? Kya bigaada tha maine aap dono ka? Aaj tak maine sab bardaash kiya. You always made me feel like a bad omen, i stayed silent. You always snatched my salary from me, i stayed silent. You always taunted me regarding my character, i stayed silent. You even called me pro...prost.....prostitute, i remained silent. But not today. Today you tried to kill him. My husband, my lifeline, my life and i won't stay silent now. Shiaay! Call the police. Call them right now. I want these two arrested now.' She was breathing heavily when shivaay rubbed her back calming her down.

      Soon the police came and took them to the police station. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Annika hugged him with tears in her eyes. Everyone smiled looking at her. She smiled faintly but only he knew it was fake. He thought to ask her later. Asking them to take rest everyone left to their rooms.

       Thru both entered the room when he hugged her from back keeping his chin on her shoulder. 'What happened annika?' She started crying looking down.

      'I'm sorry Shivaay! Because of me you had to tolerate a lot. I'm really a bad omen in your life. I'm not a good wife.' He stopped her from saying anything further and wiped her tears turning her towards himself.

     'Dare you say anything about my wife miss annika. I haven't given the right to badmouth my wife to anyone, not even you. I have the bestest wife in the world.' She smiled listening to him.

       'Just one correction shiv! It's Mrs. ANNIKA not miss.'

      He chuckled pulling her more towards himself. She gasped.

      'Now let's do romance.'

     She was about to say something but he stopped her because she promised him in the hospital to not stop him from romancing. She widened her eyes.

      'You were listening?'

     'Obviously annika! My wife herself was offering the chance to romance with her. How can i ignore it?' He winked at her making her blush.

      He picked her up going towards the bed while she hid her face in his chest knowing very well what's going to happen.................
