Kiara sat in her room while her mind kept on repeating the scene...
Abhimanyu walked over to the reception to see... Kiara. His fiancée Kiara, and she was a sobbing mess while the receptionist of the interior designing department stood in front of her yelling at Kiara but immediately and abruptly stopped as a loud voice echoed. "Kya chal raha hain pe?" All faces jerked towards the source of the voice, especially the receptionist but she spoke up in full confidence. "Sir, ye dekhiye pata nahi kahan se uth ke aagayi hai ye, bina appointment aapse mila chahti hai aur uske upar jhooth bol rahi hai." Abhimanyu looked at Kiara to notice her wearing a baby pink Kurti with multiple dirt stains on it. He spoke without removing his eyes from Kiara "What lie did she say?"
(What's going on here?)
(Sir, look here.. I don't know where she came from, she wanted to meet you without an appointment and and top of that, she was lying.)
"It a was a hilarious lie, you know, she said she is your fiancée, I mean why woul-" She was cut short by Abhimanyu "What's the lie in that?" She stared at him with wide eyes as Abhimanyu's blood was boiling while he clenched his fists. "You wouldn't seriously marry someone like her, look at her and look at you." Abhimanyu blew up "What do you mean someone like her huh? Let me tell you one thing miss, you have no right to talk like that about my fiancee and anyone close to me in that matter." Kiara's eyes widened, Abhimanyu was standing up for her. "Not only you, no one here has any right to talk about my fiancee like that and especially tell her to take an appointment out of all people and mark my words anyone to point a finger on her is going to be seeing their last day here." He pointed his finger at the receptionist before speaking again "And you miss please get out because your fired, you are no longer welcome here" Everything and everyone had stopped by then and all eyes had turned towards them while Abhimanyu's finger was pointed towards the department's exit.
He was about to spe- yell further when he felt a soft touch on his hand. He followed the hand to meet teary eyes and right then all his anger melted. They got lost in each others eyes when she flinched due to Abhimanyu's loud voice "Why are still here? Get lost and don't show me your face again." By now the receptionist was in tears. He looked up from Kiara's eyes and looked at everyone present at the scene "This was a live example for anyone who dares to tell my fiancee for an appointment or anyone who dares to stop her from meeting me. I don't care if im in a meeting or anything from now bow your head before her and no one gets to stop her from anything she does. "
(A/N- Guys pehle hi bol diya tha bohot cliche hoga 😭 (I already said it'll be very cliche))
Kiara looked up to him with a jerk when she heard his voice. "Back to work". Abhimanyu held Kiara's hand and dragged her with him towards his personal elevator. Abhimanyu left her hand and put them in his pockets impatiently waiting for the lift. He heard soft noises as he looked down to Kiara to see her sniffling and silently crying.. his heart melted at the sight but the blind Abhimanyu couldn't understand this feeling. He shrugged his shoulder and told her to stop crying.. buut she didn't listen and continued.
The two of them walked in the elevator and soon in his cabin too. It was then that Abhimanyu realised he didn't know why she was here. "Kyun aaye thi?" Yeaa. Kiara was surprised.
(Why did you come?)
"Hm?"
"Ek sawal pucha jawab nahi de sakti?" Abhimanyu was going back to his normal self.
"K-kya sawal tha?"
"Milne kyu aayi?"
"Mother ne aapke kuch bheje hai"
(I asked you a question, can't you answer?)
(W-What was the question)
(Why did you come to meet me?)
(Mother sent something for you)
"To udhar bethi kyun ho, dena hai jo do." He said as he returned back to the previous him. Kiara reached in her small purse and took out a card ... their wedding invitation card.
(Then why are you sitting there, give me whatever you have to)
"Y-ye card diya unhone.. kaha ki shaadi ki date fix ho gayi aur wo chahti hain k-ki aap ye cards distribute karde." She said while sliding the card towards him as his anger raise again.
(T-these cards, said that the wedding date is fixed a-and you need to distribute these.)
He yelled " Ye kya harwakt shaadi shaadi hm? Ek to ye shaadi se haan bolke kya paap kar diya hai maine." He snatched the card and spoke again "Baaki ke cards kahan hai?"
(What is this wedding wedding all the time hm? I made the biggest mistake saying yes to this wedding.) (Where are the rest of the cards?)
"Gaadi main rakhen hai, main akeli nahi laa sakti thi, is liye. S-shaadi do hafte baad hai aur baaki ki rasme bhi un hi dinon main hogi."
(Their kept in the car, I couldn't bring them alone thats why. T-the wedding is after two weeks and the rituals will be done in those days.)
"Ok get out."
"Huh?"
"Tumhara kaam yahan ho gaya to niklo yahaan se."
(Your work is done here so leave.)
With Kiara got up and started moving towards the door while muttering something under her breath. "Pata nahi kya chalta rehta hai inme, kabhi to kaam walon ko kaam se nikal rahe hai sirf merko unse milne ke liya mana ki aur kabhi khud get out bol rahe hain. Bhagwaan jane kehna kya chahte hain." But little did she know Abhimayu could hear everything
(I don't know what keeps on going in him, one hand he is firing his staff because they didn't let me meet him and on the other he's telling me to get out himself. Only god knows whats going on)
"Sunai de raha hai sab." Kiara rushed out of there.
(I can hear everything.)
(Back to present)
Kiara was still wondering what to think about Abhimanyu. Its all she ever thought about. The wedding, Abhimanyu and the Randhawas. Kiara couldn't understand whether Abhimanyu was a good guy or a bad considering the incident in his office. But oh god his family was too much.

Kritika woke up to sounds in the shower and an empty bed. She softly rose off the bed and sat at the end of it taking deep breathes still trying to process what happened the night earlier. They both hugged. A smile grew on Kritika's face as the previous night replayed in her mind. She didn't realize that Yuhaan had came out of the shower and now was completely dressed. It was then that she realised how long she had slept and what the time was. She got off with a jerk a quickly turned around bumping into a wall. She crashed into Yuhaan again. She looked up to his and started going around him to get to the bathroom in hurry but before she could go far a rough hand grasped her wrist. She looked back to get a rough pull on her hand as the distance between the two reduced. They weren't even 1 inch apart. They stared into each others eyes and Kritika could clearly see hatred and anger in them.. like always.
"Y-yuhaan ji chhod di jiye pls bohut dukh raha hai." She said gesturing towards her wrist using her eyes while they started tearing.
(Y-Yuhaan ji leave me please it's hurting really bad.)
"Ek baat yaad rakhna" He started speaking while tightening his hold and gritting his teeth "Kal raat jo bhi hua tha was just a mistake and nothing else. Tum kuch bhi seriously nahi logi aur kisi ko ek shabd (word) bhi nahi bologi warna mujhse bura koi nahi hoga samjh lena." With that he harshly jerked her hand down and brushed past her. "Jaldi breakfast dedo neeche aake."
(Remember one thing.)
(Everything that happened last night was a mistake and nothing else. You will not take anything seriously and you won't utter even a single word or no one will be worse than me, understand that.)
(Hurry and come down and serve me breakfast.)
Tears streamed down Kritika's eyes as his words repeated in her mind.. She thought that now finally Yuhaan would open up to Kritika and maybe they could be a happy couple, but they were far from happy or normal. She frantically wiped her tears and went to the bathroom.
--
After a short while she hurriedly went down stairs to serve everyone breakfast as she knew she was too late. Just as she has expected as soon as she reached the last step a taunt was coming her way from her mother- in- law "aare aare aaj maharani itni jaldi kese uth gayi hm? Kritika beta tum yahaan kyun ho huh.. jaake thodi der aur so jaao kyu nahi?" Although before Kritika could reply Yuhaan spoke up
(Oh my god. How did the queen wake up so early today hm? Kritika beta why are you here.. go and sleep a little more, why not?) (Sarcastic btww)
"Jo hua so hua .. Kritika agli bar dhyaan rakhna aur abhi jaldi khana leke aao late ho raha. Kaam pe jaana hai."
(Bygones be bygones.. Kritika be careful next time and get the food quickly. I'm late for work.)
"Ji maaf kariye please... abhi khana lati hoon."
(Forgive me please.. I'll being it right now.)
--
Later Yuhaan was walking towards his study as he heard sobbing from Shikhar's room. He walked towards the room and knocked on the door as the sobbing abruptly came to an end. He knew it was Dhwani as he spoke "Dhwani main andar aa raha hoon." No response. Complete silence. He slowly turned the door knob and took a small step in the room. He looked to see...
(Dhwani I'm coming in)
