"You and Shivaay got married"
Anika was shocked would be an understatement. She felt like someone stabbed her. Now everything falls to place. Shivaay talking about his only girlfriend whom he married but then got divorced. The entire time he was talking about her and she had no clue about it. Thats pathetic in its own way. She looked up to him while his captivating eyes held a lot of emotions. Him saying how he was the villain and destroyed Anika's life.

She stood and moved towards him with anger visible in her eyes.

"So you came back to destroy me again? Now I get it why you are a villain. You broke me then and I being a innocent freak fell in your trap? Damn, I should have known that you are harmful"

"Anika trust me, I... I love.." Shivaay said with tears falling from his eyes. He was fearing the moment and thats what happened.

"Don't you dare say that from your filthy mouth. Aap hi ne kaha tha you used me and we just had a week fling, it was all true" Anika chipped.

"No its not Anika. Mai bandha tha kuch promises me. Trust me please" he held her hands but she shrugged it off

"Trust you? Like seriously? I am not that naive ki aapke in magarmach ke aansun me phasu."

"Anika I love you" and she slapped him hard on his right cheek.

"That's for hurting me in the past"

"Anika I really love" and another slap was heard.

"That's for hurting me now" even Anika was in tears.

Suddenly Shivaay felt someone tapping fingers in front of him. It was Om. He realized he was hallucinating the entire time.

"Duck" he sighed and breath heavily.

"Kya duck Bhaiya?" Rudra asked

Anika was still gawking him with a perplexed look.

"Are you fine?" Om asked.

"Hmm. I am good."

There eyes again shifted back to Anika.

"I was married to Shivaay Singh Oberoi?" She asked

"Haa. Aur aap humari bhojai thi" Gauri said and smiled but Anika didn't return it.

"Ye mazak hai kya?" Anika said.

"Nahi" Jhanvi said.

"Ye meri family thi? Aur mai hi aapki wo girlfriend?" Anika asked Shivaay and everyone was looking at each other's face for answers.

"Mai aur Anika jab Delhi gaye the to I told her about my past excluding her name" Shivaay muttered while Vinay clenched his fist.

"You told her everything?" Aryan asked in disbelief.

Shivaay shook his head in a no.

"Aaj ke liye itna hi kafi hai. Hume gradually Anika ko batana chahiye" Jhanvi said.

"Hum yaha permanently nahi aaye hai Jhanvi. Hume wapas apne ghar bhi lautna hai" Vinay said.

"Mai bas isiliye keh rahi thi taki uspe stress na aaye" she said.

"Jhanvi aunty sahi keh rahi hai" Khushi said

"Khushi" Arnav looked at her.

"Even I think the same" Abhay said.

Anika was speechless after knowing it. In the past few weeks, whatever she was doing with Shivaay was not new. He was her ex husband and the kisses felt legally right now.

"Tumhe kuch kehna nahi hai?" Aryan asked her.

"Mujhe Shivaay se akele me kuch baat karni hai"

Shivaay became conscious not knowing his dream might come true.

"Shivaay, use apne room me leke chalo" Jhanvi instructed.

"Mere room me nahi. I am taking her out in the pool area" Shivaay said. He is afraid he won't be able to control himself being alone with Anika in that room.

Anika followed him to the pool area.

"Aapne bataya nahi hai ki aapne apni ex wife ko secretary rakha tha" Anika said as soon as they reached.

"Its complicated. Abhi tumne shayad bas 2% of the story jana hai" Shivaay replied.

"Hmm. Hopefully I will get to know everything soon. Its really awkward for me" she said and Shivaay reduced the distance between them.

"I mean mere ex husband mere saamne the and I being a dumbo pata nahi kya kuch samajh rahi thi" her tears ditched her and rolled down her cheeks.

"Anika please don't cry. Its tough for me to see you like this" he tried to console her but she cried harder.

"I was crying that day too when you kicked me out. Tab aapko nahi takleef huyi thi?" She asked.

"I majboor tha" he replied honestly.

"Kaisi majboori?" Her question made him speechless.

"Tell me now" she demanded.

"I can't. Every thing has a time and this is not the right moment. Gradually sab thik ho jayega" he was about to hug her but she pushed him lightly.

"I no longer can trust you. I don't even have any idea ki aapke kaunse version ko sach manu? The one during Delhi trip ya phir the aftermath? And now this stupid thing of marriage" she wiped her tears.

"Anika I agree mai bura hun bohut lekin maine tumhe sab bataya tha ki how I have changed. I was honest with you that day" he said with pleading eyes.

"What if aap jhuth bol rahe the? What if you are lying now?" She asked and he looked hurt, hurt by her words

"You only told me you hurted your wife and that happens to be me. I fucking don't remember any moment with you. How we used to stay, what you did? Did you sleep together? Did we fight? Everything is a mess" she was on the verge of screaming but Shivaay held her tight.

"Anika calm down" though he was broken after hearing it from her mouth. He knew she won't remember a thing, still listening it from her hurt him to the core. The moments he always cherish has no importance in her life.

"And moreover har breakup ya divorce ki wajah hoti hai. Agar wo saath reh paate to shayad juda hi nahi hote" with this final words, she went out leaving behind a shattered Shivaay whose only hope died.
