Shilpa was passing through the corridor while cursing Armaan and the same time someone snatched her wrist tightly and dragged her inside the fire escape.
"How dare you", Shilpa screamed.
"Sh! someone can hear us", he shushed her keeping his finger on her lips.
She removed his hand roughly from her lips and jerked it off, "I don't care"
"You don't care?"
"No"
"Ok then you have to", he started stepping forward and she kept stepping backward and now she was pinned between his chest and the wall. She could even feel his breath and held her from the shoulders, tightly so she cannot move anywhere, but she was trying hard to get herself free from his tight grip but it wasn't easy for her.
They both could feel each other's breath and the same time Armaan started taking his face near hers. She realized that his intentions aren't good so she tried to take her head away and turned it to the left so he can't touch it but he being too smart and stubborn took her chin in his hand tightly and removed the distance between their lips by kissing her deeply and passionately but this kiss wasn't satisfying, but dominating. She wasn't at all responding him but he wasn't in mood to leave her when suddenly she grabbed all her strength and pushed him from her hands.
But before he could understand anything she just slapped him tightly and he left, rubbing his cheek from his hand.
"Tumhari himmat kaise hui mujhe...mujhe choone ki bhi?", she screamed loudly blasting in angst.
"Jaise tumhari himmat hui mujhe Thappad Marne ki", he retorted back.
"Tum jaisa characterless or cheap insaan maine aaj tak nahi dekha", she clenched her jaw with disgust.
"Oh really!", she was about to leave as she was so uninterested to waste her time on him, but he gripped her wrist again, "Mana ke tum almost sahi hoti ho Har bat mein but it doesn't mean ke tum Har baar sahi ho"
"Har baar ka to pata nahi. But I am right this time about you", she pierced her eyes in his and removed his hand from his grip and left the space in utter anger.

In the night,
Around 9 p.m
Shilpa was getting ready for the cocktail party of Sid and Riddhima's but her mind was portraying the image when he kissed her without her consent as according to her he isn't a person of good character.
She dressed herself in peach off shoulder blouse and a long umbrella floral skirt with the long danglers which were studded with diamonds. She has worn the diamond and pearl high heel stilettos which were peach and white in color. The skirt was kissing her ankles. She put minimal make up and tied her long hairs with the help of a clip but they were still half open and were lying on her shoulder.



She entered to Riddhima's room that was getting ready as she wasn't sure about the neck piece to wear and Anjali was constantly calling her because Sid has already arrived with his gang of all the boys except Armaan. So Shilpa helped her in choosing the neck piece and set her hairs to give the final touch and they both rushed to the ground floor.As in this was the party for the youngsters so all the elders have left them alone for the party so they can enjoy, not being orthodox. When Shilpa and Riddhima jumped the pebbles slowly, Sid couldn't took his eyes off from her and was all mesmerized in her beauty and the same time Yuvi clasped his fingers in front of his face, so that he came to senses.
He was smiling at his restlessness when Riddhima joined him and he whispered in her ear, "You are going to kill me tonight", and smirked at which she blushed.
"Hey so the to be bride and groom are here then let's celebrate", everyone cheers
But Sid interrupted, "Not yet. I have to thank someone because of whom this day has came to my life"
All were confused hearing this including Shilpa, when Sid continued, "I want to thank my dearest friend Armaan, hey by the way where he is?" at which Shilpa rolled her eyes.
And the same time Riddhima stopped him to announce and whispered, "He hasn't came"
"What? But why?", he asked
"Let me call him"
Riddhima dialed Armaan's which he didn't picked up for umpteenth times but finally he decided to because he knew that Riddhima wouldn't stop calling him till he doesn't pick her call.
Armaan: Haan bolo.
Riddhima: Why aren't you here Armaan
Armaan: Actually wo...
Riddhima: I don't want any excuses you have to come and that's final ... you left yesterday also but today you have to come...
And she disconnected the call immediately without listening him once, who was so uninterested to go to the party not because he was hurt to see Riddhima and Sid close and he wasn't able to digest their oneness, in fact he was happy because Riddhima has finally got her love. But because he wasn't interested to get in argument with Shilpa who has already make a wrong opinion about him which he wasn't able to digest.
But finally he decided to left just for the sake of his friends, Sid and Riddhima, and changed quickly and drove off.
When he reached the venue the party was going on and the same time Sid's eyes fell on him and he smiled and held his hand called everyone for the attention by tapping his Champaign glass"
"Here is the guy to whom the whole credit goes to, for this special day of mine and Riddhima's", Sid gave him a tight friendly hug and Riddhima also thanked him.
Shilpa creased her brows as she thought if Armaan has betrayed Riddhima then why the hell both SidMa were thanking and applauding him and for what deed."
She was lost in the dilemma when a voice came from the crowd of the guests, "okay, but how this man is the reason for your happiness"
Sid and Riddhima shared a look and she answered, "Because he left his first love for ... for my sake. I left him but... but he didn't ask not even once that why... why the hell I did this injustice with hi...him", and she chocked in between because what if she doesn't love him but somewhere she had something for him in his heart, whether she has forgotten him forever, but she couldn't deny with the reality of the past.
So Sid narrated that how Armaan sacrificed his first love Riddhima for her sake, happily because what he wanted was her happiness, which was his only priority as his happiness was connected with hers.
Shilpa was aghast when she came to know the reality and was feeling ashamed and regretful for her rude and harsh behavior towards him. She was searching him here and there but she couldn't find him, as he was on the bar table and was sipping the glass full of beer.
But she didn't notice him and bumped on a body who uttered sorry to her and she mumbled it's okay and was stepping forward and realized who was it, it was Yuvraj. So she called him from back and he turned.
"I wanted to ask something", Shilpa asked hesitantly.
"Haan. Bolo", Yuvi replied.
"I've heard that... that Armaan is a play boy who can Play with any girl's emotion and no girl can get away from his charm...", Shilpa was uttering without stopping when he stopped her said, Calm down! Take a deep breath"
And continued himself, "By the way who the hell has said this to you"
"No one, but I have heard JP and Jiggy's conversation in which they were saying all this in Sanjeevani", she replied looking here and there.
He thought for a while and remembered about which conversation she was talking about, so he shrugged his head and replied, "OMG! That conversation? You know na how JP and Jiggy are they always Crack jokes or fantasize anything about anyone. Wo bas bakwas kar rahe they as usual"
This reply of his bombarded likes a shock on her and she was in mixed emotions, regret, ashamed and angry towards herself. Her eyes became teary as she was so ashamed. So she started searching for here and there.
When a waiter passed from her side to which she asked, "Have you seen Armaan? I mean the person who has wore a black suit, white shirt and red tie"
He thought for a second and asked, "the one to whom Sir was applauding?"
"Yes. The same one", she replied.
"I have seen him on the bar counter last time"
"Okay. Thanks.
When she entered he wasn't there and the bar tendered informed her that he has just left so she rushed towards the main door, holding her skirt in her fist.
He was about to opened the door of his car when she called her from behind, "Armaan"
And he unwanted stopped, she came closer to him and she mumbled, "I am really very sorry for being judgment
He came forward and jammed her between the car door and his chest.
"What do you think whenever you want you will make an opinion about me and call me CHARACTERLESS", he clenched his jaw while saying the word characterless and continued himself, "and whenever it comes to your mind you will change your opinion about me"
"You're hurting me", she panicked.
"No. You have hurt me a lot when you become so judgmental about me. Huh!", he left her and turned his back towards her, By this you have forced me to become a devil towards a girl, which I'm not dammit"
He again faced her, but you wouldn't understand after all to trust someone isn't your cup of tea, you will do the same whatever you want to...and you know what I really don't care what do you think about me, his eyes were piercing hers and she was feeling as someone has pierced the knife in her heart and twisted it.
They were all lost in each other's eyes with the feeling of regret and anger, respectively when the same time a water droplet fell on her cheek and the cloud started threatening that it was in a mood to tear it's womb and open the tap of its water.
They were not caring about that and suddenly the rain started and both of them started getting drench in the cold water. Her blouse has started sticking to her body and the hairs have also become wet.
They both were fully drenched in water but none of them take their ego back. Armaan was so angry with her so he didn't care about anything except the angst and on the same time she knew that she was regretful. The water droplets were flowing through her face and kissing her lips and then the bare neck and collar bone.
He was constantly looking into her eyes and then realized that she was all drenched. He was following the water droplets and gazing them with the flow.
He started stepping forward and she became trembled as she was in the fear as he could do anything whenever he come near to her, so she stepped backward and jammed between him and the car but shockingly he removed his jacket and let her wear it so her revealing parts which were sticking to her body shouldn't get notice by him and left the spot.
But these two were unaware that a pair of eyes was noticing them, keenly.
