She said nd closed her eyes nd silently makes d wish which she makes every year

Antara: Babaji! Pls Keep Raghu happy nd Safe always. Pls Give him d Success in every point of his lyf. Dis is wat I want from u.

She said nd opens her eyes nd found Raghu standing in front of her smiling at her gesturing her dat she's looking beautiful. She couldn't believe on her eyes seeing him over dere nd unknowingly smiles brightly just den Shilpa shrugs her Shoulders

Shilpa: Antara kaha kho gayi ho. C'mon cut d cake

She smiles nd again looks at d direction where she saw Raghu but he was not dere. She didn't understand where he had gone or was she hallucinating? But y today nd most importantly y him? Her trail of thoughts has broken wen Misha asks her again to cut d cake.

She smiled weakly nd cuts d cake nd gives d first Piece to her Mother, den to Misha nd after dat to Arman nd Shilpa nd den it goes on wid everyone. Nd wen she saw dat everyone is busy in demselves den she puts a piece of cake to other plate like every year nd no points for Guessing for whom. Yes it was for Raghu. She makes sure dat no one notices it but least she knows dat Arman nd Shilpa has noticed it but dey decided to remain quiet.

***************************************

He said nd closes his eyes nd makes a Wish on her Behalf

Raghu: Babaji! Pls keep me happy, safe nd Sound until she returns because she can't see me in any kind of problem nd nw wish from my side Pls Keep her happy nd smiling always as it was d only thing dat matters me most. Dis is all I want from u.

He said nd opens his eyes nd den cuts d cake

Raghu: Happy B'day To u, Happy B'day to u, Happy B'day dear Antara, Happy B'day to u.

After dat he puts d Piece of cake in front of her Photo nd den takes one for himself. Dis was his Lyf from Last 5 years dere's not a single day wen he don't talk to her Photo, not a single B'day of her dat he didn't celebrated. He considers dis day as dere special day nd derefore no matter hw many other important works he had fir dis day but he leaves all of dem just to spend tym wid his Angel. Every year he brought Gift for her nd keeps it in d Cupboard so dat wen she comes back he can gift it to her. No one knows y he's still waiting for her wen everyone has lost all dere hopes even Machmach also but he haven't stop waiting for her. he has full trust on dere Love. he was sure dat no matter hw much Antara is angry on him, no matter hw many years she stays away from him but one day dere true Love will definitely get her back to him. nd he was still waiting for dat day wen she comes back to him nd gives him an another chance to Prove his Love to her

*************************************************

Antara couldn't able to stay for Long in d Party. It was suffocating her. All d Tym her Mind has only Diverted towards him. An unknown urge of talking to him has started arising in her heart. She quickly leaves d Party nd Ran outside at d Garden to take sum fresh Air nd keeps her Mind away from him but her restlessness was only increasing by every passing second.

She closed her ears wid her palms tightly not wanting to listen her own Heartbeats which were only taking his Name. Drop of tears is falling from her eyes due to dis extreme restlessness. She remembers d tym wen Raghu has confessed his true Feelings to her nd she walks out from his lyf

****************************************

Antara was still standing over dere closing her eyes wen she felt a hand on her shoulders. She knows dis Touch she can never forget dis Touch. She quickly turnd sround nd saw Raghu standing over dere in front of her. She felt so happy after seeing him over dere nd smiled. He Cupped her face nd kissed her forehead

Raghu: HAPPY B'DAY MY ANGEL

She said nothing but just smiled wid tears in her eyes. He slowly wipes away her tears wid his thumb nd looks into her eyes.

Raghu: u were again crying? U knw na dat I cant see u in tears

Antara: Dese tears r given by u only.

Raghu (looks downwards): I M SORRY. But I really dnt want to give u tears. I just wanted to give u only happiness but dnt know where I get failed.

Antara: Den y u had said all dat. Ur one mistake, ur one wrong Word nd our Lives has changed forever. U think m happy by staying away from u. U think its easy for me to leave u especially after knowing dat u truly Loves me.

Raghu: I knw I made a mistake but wen I wanted to rectify it u walks out from my Lyf. Without even giving me a chance to prove my Love, to improve my mistake. Just by saying dat u cant trust me anymore u walk out from my Lyf.

Antara: So wat else u had expected Raghu. Hw can I trust u at dat tym. Just 1 month ago u said dat dere was no Love between us nd den u confess dat u Love me truly, den tell me Raghu to which I believe. I wanted to believe Raghu but my heart was sumwhere refuse to believe u.

Raghu: nd wat about nw? nw do u believe me? M still waiting for u Antara nd will wait till eternity just to see dat glimpse of Love in ur Eyes back. ask ur heart Antara nd Tell me Do u believe me nw?

Antara couldn't said anything she just closes her eyes nd Raghu's Words were echoing in her mind

"nd wat about nw? nw do u believe me?"

"M still waiting for u Antara nd will wait till eternity just to see dat glimpse of Love in ur Eyes back."

She don't know y its getting difficult for her to believe him once again. She was away from him for 5 whole years but yet couldn't able to take her mind away from him for once. Its true dat she left him because she was angry on him, because she wanted to escape from d situation, because she don't wanted to get heart-broken once again. But dis is also true dat in dese 5 years dere was not a single moment wen she haven't thought of him but Everytym her Mind overcomes her heart.

She wanted to find d Answers of Raghu's Question but failed Everytym. As wenever she tries to find d Answers she reminds of Dat day wen Raghu said dat dere was no Love between dem nd she found it difficult to trust him again.

Her trail of thoughts has been broken wen she felt sumone jerking her shoulders. She opens her eyes nd saw Shilpa standing over dere wid a confused Look. Antara quickly wipes away her tears nd Looks at her.

Shilpa: Antara, wat r u doing over here? Nd u were crying rite?

Antara: No Shilpa m not Crying I guess sumthing has gone in my eyes.

Shilpa: R u sure

Antara: ya.

Shilpa: but wat r u doing outside? Everyone is looking for u inside.

Antara: wo, I was not feeling well inside so just came over here to take sum fresh air.

Shilpa: Antara r u hiding sumthing from me? See u can tell me if u wants to tell me

Antara: No Shilpa its nothing like dat. Chalo lets go inside everyone must be waiting for us inside.

Shilpa: r u sure?

Antara: ya

Shilpa: ok den lets Go.

She said nd dey both headed inside.

Raghu was inside his Room nw standing in front of Antara's Photographs wid his Arms Crossed

Raghu: So Antara had u guessed ur B'day Gift dis year? Still couldn't. C'mon yar u should have guessed it. Ok fine I'll tell myself.

He said nd takes out a paper from a Drawer nd keeps it in front of her photo

Arman: Hey Kiddo where have u gone? Nd Shilpa wat r u doing wid her?

Shilpa: Kyun? Antara pe sirf tumhara hi Copyright hai kya. She's my friend too ok.

Arman: Ya but where u both have been

Shilpa: Kyun batau. Its between two Girls so better u don't interfere

Arman: ok I'll not but first tell me who's d Girl between u two (he said nd chuckled)

"Arman" Both Shilpa nd Antara said together nd den giggles

Shilpa: u knw wat tumhe sirf Baatein karna aata hai. Had u given Antara her surprise Gift yet

Antara (confused): Surprise Gift?

Shilpa: ya d same gift for which he was out whole day today

Arman: Shilpa u r really bad. Sara plan spoil kar diya. Mujhe Antara ko thoda aur wait karana tha

Shilpa: I think u had already made her wait a lot so nw tell her

Antara: Will u guys bother to tell me wat u both r actually talking about?

Arman: See kiddo I wanted to give dis gift to u after d Party but as for nw Shilpa has spoiled all d Plan so I'll tell u rite nw

Antara: Arman, Footage khana band karo nd batao kya baat hai

Arman: Bataunga nahi Dikhayunga

He said nd asks Shilpa to take out d Paper from her purse. She takes out nd gives to him nd he handles it to Antara.

Antara: wats dis? (She said while looking at d paper)

Arman: its ur Dream Project Kiddo.

Antara: Wat?

Arman: ya. U wanted to have an Orphanage for Poor children in India na wid all d best facilities like d ones we had here in abroad. Well ur dream is going to be cum true

Antara: Wat r u saying Arman? R u serious?

Arman: Ab kya Life support System me Late kar bolu tab believe karogi. Its true Dumbo.

Antara: OMG Arman wen had u finalized all dis

Shilpa: Antara he's working on dis Deal from Last 1 month nd finally it finalized dis evening.

Arman: Remember i told u dat tym dat i had gone to make dis special day more special well dis is wat m talking about. ur Dream Project has finalized on d eve of ur B'day nd i dnt think dat any other Gift can give u dis much happiness nd guess wat dey like ur Design instantly nd u knw wat dey were saying dat dey also wanted to make an orphanage just like u designed.

Antara feel like she was on cloud nine. Her biggest dream is going to be cum true

Arman: Kiddo surprises r not over yet. U knw wat dey wanted to work on dis ASAP nd guess wat u r going to India within few days

Antara: India?

Arman: yes Kiddo India, ur country, ur city. D place where u actually belongs. Where ur heart is

He said nd Antara gets lost at his last statement. He was right her heart is at India only. No matter she was here from last 5 years but just physically, mentally she was always dere.

Shilpa: Hey Antara, where u lost?

Antara: nowhere. I was just thinking dat which is dis Company who's going to work wid us in dis project.

Arman: Well, its d no. 1 company of India. Naik's Constructions.

D word Naik's Constructions has sumwhere clicked in her mind as Raghu's Company. Though she has never asked Raghu dat from which name his family business is but d word Naik has linked her mind towards him only

Antara: Naik's Constructions?

Arman: ya Antara nd u knw wat its owner is quiet young

("Kahi ye company Raghu ki hi to nahi" She thought)

Arman: nd about his personality well wat to say he's Sophisticated, dedicated nd people say dat sumtymes Arrogant nd Rude also

("Sophisticated nd Dedicated nd not to Forget Aroogant nd Rude den dis cant be Raghu he was always carefree nd Cheerful Person nd never rude to anyone)

Arman: nd its been 4 years since he was handling dis business nd has won Best businessman of d Year 3 tymes in a row. I mean wat a spirit yaar

(dis definitely cant be Raghu. It was hard for him to get passed in semesters without a back den forget about d Award)

Shilpa: nd u knw wat Antara I heard dat although being a charmer he always stays away from girls

(Raghu nd stays away from Girls definitely not Possible)

Arman: ya nd Antara most importantly he's very punctual just like u. he always says dat our life can change even in a minute so value every minute

(Ok its Confirm nw dis person is Definitely not Raghu. He nd Punctual its just next to impossible)

Arman: So dats All about Mr. Naik d MD of Naik's Constructions.

Antara (to herself): Ya he's just Mr. Naik nd not Raghu. Tu bhi na Antara kuch bhi sochti hai. Dis Mr. Naik nd Raghu r poles apart from each other nd u thought dat he can be Raghu. Stupid.

Shilpa: Antara wat r u thinking?

Antara: Nothing just waiting to Meet Mr. Naik. By the way wen I had to leave for India?

Arman: within a week I guess.

Antara: fine. I'll make all d arrangements till den.

She said nd relieved wid d Fact dat d person whom she's going to meet is not Raghu. But least she knows dat its d game of Destiny which is going to bring dem face to face again after 5 years but dis tym will Destiny able to succeed to bring dese two Lovers close to each other once again?

Its jst amazing,,

nice ear so now rantara going to meet

PART 15:

Rest of d Function went well after d function. Everyone was happy wid d double celebration in d house except Antara who seems to be Lost sumwhere. Arman nd Shilpa were noticing it from quiet a while but couldn't able to understand wat's Bothering her

Arman: Shilpa, have u noticed Antara? She looks so lost

Shilpa: Ya I thought dat wen u'll tell her about d finalizing of her dream Project den she would be happy. But it seems dat sumthing is bothering her. infact I was noticing her throughout d party she was lost like dis only. I don't know wat's bothering her

Arman: I think I know wat's bothering her

Shilpa: Raghu

Arman: hhmmm. May be she's thinking dat she can face him over dere nd dats wat bothering her

Shilpa: ok for once I can get agreed to u but if dat is d reason den it would be after u tell her about her project she was lost throughout d party.

Arman: yes u r rite

Shilpa: y don't u talk to her? She's very close to u nd will definitely tell u wat's bothering her

Arman: No I knw her very well. She won't tell to even me until she wants. Derefore we have to wait

Shilpa nodded whilelooking at Antara.

*************************************************

It's been 1 hr. since Party was over nd Antara was sitting on her bed thinking about Raghu. She still couldn't able to understand y she was missing him so much today? Actually to ask wen she haven't missed him? It's been 5 years since she left him nd came here wid Arman but yet she feels dat she was still dere. No matter hw much success she has achieved today, hw far has she moved on in her lyf but she was still stuck up at d same place only where Raghu has confessed his true feelings to her.

She don't know y but today she felt an unknown urge of talking to him today. Its been 5 years nd she haven't even called him once but dat doesn't mean she didn't cared for him, dat she don't want to know about him but she was too confused at dat tym for wat is right nd wat is wrong dat she couldn't able to call him. Nd today even after 5 years also she is not sure to whom to listen her heart or her Mind.

She opened her Laptop nd connected to internet. Today she wanted to log in to her old e-mail Id nd Facebook ID. She don't know y but she felt dat may be Raghu has dropped some mails over dere or may be he has wished her over dere. She was about to hit Log-in Button but den stops herself. Y was she thinking all dat? Y would Raghu leave her any mails especially after she walks out from her lyf like dat. He might even not see her face after dat. She closes her Laptop nd rests her head at d bed post nd closes her eyes just to see his face in front of her.

Antara's monologue:

I closed my eyes just to see his face in front of me. Its been 5 years since I was here. I had achieved great success in my Lyf. I had fulfilled my dream of being a successful Architect also but yet m not happy. Yes I feel no ashamed to admit it dat m not happy. I had everything in my Lyf; Good Job, recognition in society, friends Like Arman nd Shilpa who was always dere for me in short everything which completes my lyf but yet I feel my Lyf incomplete without him.

Yes, my lyf is incomplete without him. It's been 5 years wen I walked out from his Lyf by saying dat "I can't trust you anymore". But y I said dat, I dnt know. I saw true feelings in his eyes dat day but y my heart refuse to believe him dat day? May be due to d pain he has given to me. But I was a girl who believes in Forget nd Forgive den y couldn't I able to do dis at dat tym. Y I ran from d situation? I was not like d girl who ran from situations. I was always a Girl who faces every odd situation den y I ran dat tym?

Nd today even after 5 years also I feel dat I haven't moved on. He could I wen my heart, my soul is still over dere. "I Don't Love him, I Don't Love him" I don't know hw many tymes I had said dis thing to myself but if it was true den y I Wished for him on my Every B'day wen I was suppose to make wish for me, Y I always go to church on his B'day just to pray for his happiness, every year I take a gift on his name y? y I still haven't changed d Password nd DP of my Facebook Profile till nw just because he asked me not to change nd I left it like dat only till nw? Nd today even after being lots of People around me y I felt Lonely? Y I felt Restless? Like he was calling me, like he was remembering me. Den y I m lyieng to myself dat I don't love him wen d fact is dat I haven't stopped Loving him anytym. Not at dat tym also wen he says dat dere was no Love between us, not at dat tym also wen I saw him at Mc Donald's after 3 weeks nd definitely not at dat tym wen he confessed me his true feelings dat he truly loves me. Den y I left him at dat tym, y it was hard for me to believe him dat tym, y it was hard for me to Love him back at dat tym. Wat it because of fear dat was in my heart, Dat he'll again break my heart, dat he'll again break my trust. Wat he did was wrong but wat I did was Right?

I don't know hw many tymes in dis 5 years I had thought of all dis but still couldn't able to cum to a conclusion. It's been 5 years since I last saw him, its been 5 years since I last heard him. I make myself Believe dat I had moved on but was dat true? If it was true den y I was going to check my old e-mail nd Facebook account. D truth is dat I haven't moved on. I m still dere may be datsy wen Arman told me about my Dream project I was not happy whole heartedly. But y? I dnt knw for hw many hours I had kept asking dese questions to myself like I did everyday since I came over here but haven't found any answer yet. I guess its better to leave some questions unanswered

(Antara's Monologue ends)

She opens her eyes nd again looks at her Laptop but still couldn't able to Log in to her old ID. Its not unusual for her. From last 5 years she's trying to do d same thing but sumthing stops her Everytym. God knows wat was it? Her fear or sumthing else? Its been 5 years nd she's fighting herself like dis. 5 years back she left him but it seems like a incident of yesterday only wen he says dat he Really really Love her. she closed her eyes again nd gets lost in d memories of 5 yrs Back

*****~~~~~~Flashback~~~~~********

Antara comes to her home running nd Calls Arman dat she was ready to go wid him to US. She don't know from whom she was running, From Raghu or from d Reality but she didn't want to be over dere. Dere is no courage left in her to tolerate one more heart break in future nd derefore she has taken dis decision to run away. Dnt knw from whom, Raghu, d reality or from herself.

She had no idea wat will she tell to her Mom nd Misha wen dey will ask her about her sudden decision nd neither she want to think about it, she knows Arman can handle all dat. All she could think of at dis moment is Raghu. She goes to her balcony nd sits over dere hugging her knees tight nd tears flowing from her eyes. Words of Raghu were still echoing in her ears

"I M SORRY Antara. I M REALLY VERY SORRY"

"Pls dnt go away from me Antara. I can't live without u. I really can't."

"Antara tum to apne Raghu ki har galti Maaf kar deti ho na den pls, pls Forgive me dis tym also."

"I knw I have hurted u, I knw I gave u pain but trust me Antara since d day u left me, since d day u walk out from my lyf I couldn't able to spend a day peacefully. Everytym I saw ur face in front of me."

"I m dyeing every second, every minute, every day without u Antara. Nd den only realize dat I m in love wid u. infact I was always in love wid u Antara"

"I LOVE YOU. I REALLY REALLY LOVE YOU nd dis tym I m not in any kind of confusion. I m truly, madly nd Deeply in Love wid u. I LOVE YOU ANTARA. I LOVE YOU"

"I LOVE YOU ANTARA. I LOVE YOU"

"I LOVE YOU ANTARA. I LOVE YOU"

"I LOVE YOU ANTARA. I LOVE YOU"

She closed her ears tight wid her palms not to hear dose word. Y? y fate was playing dis game wid her? Wasn't all dat enough dat happened so far? Raghu cuming to her lyf, Den proposing her at dat tym wen she has accepted d fact dat d word Love is not written in her dictionary nd wen she starts to believe in d fact dat dere's someone to Love her he walks out from her lyf just by saying dat dere was no Love between dem nd now wen she wants to start Lyf a fresh den he again comes nd says dat he Loves her? nd he expect her to forget everything nd goes back to him? was all dis was so easy? Hw can she trust him anymore wen he himself was not sure of his feelings

Antara: Y Raghu Y? y u came to my lyf? Y had u made everything so difficult for me? Few days back u say u dnt Love me nd now u say u truly Loves me. Nd nw u expect me to believe u? hw could I believe u Raghu wen u urself r not sure of ur feelings? Y Raghu Y I couldn't able to hate u even nw also? I don't hate u Raghu, I can never hate but I dnt know if I can again Love you nw. y had u came to my lyf Raghu? Neither I can stay away from u nor can stay close to u.

She said nd sat over dere like dat only. Rain has started to pour but she didn't moved an inch from dere nd sat over dere only crying. She don't know hw many minutes, hw many hours but she just sat over like dat only.

********************************************

Next Day she has to leave for Airport early in d morning. Arman has stayed at her place only last nite. He knows dat sumthing has gone wrong due to which she decided to leave all of a sudden but wat was dat he had no idea. But wats more important for him nw was to convience Antara's family about her Leaving all of a sudden. He said dat it was on talks from so many days. His Dad wants Antara to do her internship from dere only as it'll help her in future; initially Antara was not ready but last nite wen he talked to his Dad she gets agreed nd datsy leaving all of a sudden.

Antara's Mom believed on Wat Arman has said but Misha still didn't seemed convienced. She remembered Antara's Expression last nite. Dere was sum other reason behind her leaving like dis but she knows Antara, she'll never told anything to anyone. She hugged Antara at d Airport bidding her Good bye.

Misha (almost in tears): Will miss u Wildy! Pls take care of urself nd ya call me everyday nd pls forget everything dat happen so far nd starts d new journey of ur Lyf. Promise me u'll do dat.

Antara (lost): Bye Misha! Take care of Mom. I m leaving her on urresponsibility. Nw u have to take care of everything. Nd ya prepare well forur Medical entrance nd no mischieves ok.

She didn't mentioned anything about starting a new lyf. Well dere's no Lyf without him she thought. Misha nodded in yes nd hugged her again nd as d announcement of flight came she left from dere.

Dat day sumthing has died within her. Leaving her Country, Leaving her city nd most importantly Leaving him like dis has killed her inside. She never wanted all dis happen like dis way but she was helpless in front of her fate. She don't know hw Raghu will react wen he comes to know about her leaving but it was important for both of dem. She was quiet throughout d whole journey. Arman tries to cheer her up but nothing sems to work so he decided to leave it dat way only.

************************************************

1 month has passed since Antara has came to US. She stays over Arman's place though she didn't want to as she don't want to be a burden on anyone but Arman's parents didn't let her go anywhere nd finally she gave up nd stays over dere. Everyone was so gud to her, were taking care of her, she has started her internship also nd gets busy in dat. Arman has managed to get all d Documents from her college which was necessary for her internship. Everything was going gud But still she was not happy. Only her body was present over dere but her Mind, her heart was still in India.

Everytym she think of Raghu. Is he allrite? Was he in any kind of Problem? Its true dat she was angry on him may be datsy she left but this is also true that d day since she came over here she couldn't able to stay Peacefully even for a second. Everytym her mond diverted towards Raghu only

Nd dat nite while she was sleeping she had a bad dream.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

She saw Raghu over here at d Balcony calling her, asking her to forgive him, to give him one more chance but she didn't hear nd walked away from him leaving him in tears. d sight was unbearable to him nd he makes himself stand at d Boundary of Balcony nd cals her again

"ANTARA!!!!!!" his voice was trembling nd in deep pain. She quickly turns back only to see him stand at d boundary of d balcony

"Antara, I don't want dis lyf in which u r not wid me. I cant live without u Antara nd derefore I m ending dis lyf." He said nd falls backward to d ground.

"RAGHU!!!! Pls don't do dat" Antara screams but before she stops him he has already fallen at d ground.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

"RAGHU!!!!" she gets up from her sleep. she was panting nd sweating heavily. She don't know whether it was just a nightmare or reality. she quickly rans away from her Room towards d balcony just to make sure dat it was just a dream. Arman saw her running towards Balcony. He was in his study working on some project wen he saw her. he quickly goes behind her.

**************************************

She stood at d balcony. Everything was same just like her dream which makes her more scared. Wat if dat was not her dream but d reality. she looked around herself to search Raghu bt he was not dere. She quickly goes towards d Balcony nd looked downwards. D flashes of Raghu falling downwards were in front of her eyes. she leans more downwards nd was about to fall wen Arman gets d hold of her nd pulls her backwards. His facial expression can clearly say dat he was hell angry seeing her like dat, may be for d first tym.

Arman: Wat d hell u think u r doing? R u mad? Kya karne ja rahi thi tum?

Antara (fumbles): Arman... Arman wo Raghu... Raghu... Jumps... He dies... He was here... Raghu

She was not able to put up d words due to fear. Arman was not able to understand a single thing which she was saying

Arman: Kiddo, wat r u saying? Wat happen to Raghu?

Antara: Arman, Raghu... Raghu was here, he was calling me but I didn't listened to him nd walked out. He couldn't able to take dis nd den he jumps downwards from dat Boundary. He dies, he dies Arman.

Arman: Kiddo! U must had a bad dream. Everything is fine

Antara: NO!!!! he's not fine. Sumthing is wrong, he's not fine. He's in sum problem. He's not fine. He's not safe. Arman (she said while shrugging his shoulders) pls do sumthing. Pls save him... he'll do sumthing to himself... Pls Save him Arman pls save him. I left him without even giving him a chance to prove himself. He must be shattered na... he'll definitely do sumthing to him... Pls save him Arman... Pls save him. Pl...sss... sa...ve... Hi...m.

(OK to end all confusion of u guys dis incident happens at d same tym wen Raghu was going to cummit suicide over dere but after recieving Antara's gift he stops himself)

Her voice trailed off as she gets fainted. Arman was horrified to see her like dat. He quickly hold her before she hits d ground.

Arman: Kiddo! Kiddo open ur eyes (he said while patting her cheeks) Open ur eyes god damn it.

But she still didn't respond derefore he lifts her up nd takes her towards d car. He don't want anyone in d house to know about her condition nd derefore he didn't told anything to anyone nd drove towards hospital

*****************************************************

As soon as he reaches hospital he quickly laid her d stretcher nd rushes inside. Shilpa was at round at dat tym wen she saw Arman cuming dere like dat she gets Worried. As soon as He saw Shilpa he quickly goes to her

Arman: Shilpa, pls see to Kiddo. Pls. see wats wrong.. pls

Shilpa can easily read his scared expression. She had heard many tymes from him about his Kiddo nd knows hw much he was touchy about her.

Shilpa: Arman, relax first nd tell me wat happen?

Arman: wo she had a bad dream nd after dat she ran towards balcony nd den fainted nd... Shilpa I'll tell u everything later but first see to her.

Shilpa: ok but u first calm down.

She said nd quickly takes her inside d ward nd checks her.

Its been 1 hr. nd Antara has still not regained her conciousness. She continuously mutters "Raghu Stop dat. Pls don't do dat" in her unconscious state. Shilpa gives her an injection nd she drifted into deep sleep.

Shilpa: She's fine nw. dnt worry.

Arman: but wats wrong wid her? y she gets fainted

Shilpa: her BP has got very high nd she had a bit of fever also. But she's fine nw. I had give her injection nd she's sleeping rite nw.

Arman: hhhmmm

Shilpa: Arman, has sumthing happened to her I mean sum kind of problem or anything else which has afected her lyf

Arman: y u asking dat?

Shilpa: Wo she was continuously muttering dat "Raghu Stop dat. Pls don't do dat" datsy?

Arman told her everything which he came to know from Antara. Shilpa had tears in her eyes. she looked at Antara who was lyieng over dere. Hw can anyone love someone so much. Though being angry on him also she still cares for him, she still wants to know dat if he's fine.

Shilpa: Arman, she had many emotions bottled up inside her nd nw we need to take care dat she remains happy nd tries to move on which is difficult actually but still we have to try. U understand wat I m saying

Arman said nothing but nodded in yes.

Soon Antara regain her conciousness nd found herself in d hospital. Shilpa makes her believe dat she had a bad dream due to which she got unconcious but nw she's fine nd asked her to take rest nd dnt take much stress nd dis is wen she saw Shilpa first tym nd after dat she too became her gud friend just like Arman. Arman takes her home early in d morning nd asks her to take rest nd leaves from dere. She don't know y but suddenly her heart felt sum peace, d feeling dat Raghu is in danger sumwhere has gone nd she felt dat he's safe nw. yes he's safe over dere becoz if he was not den she wont be allrite over here. "He's fine, yes he's fine" she kept on saying dis thing to herself.

Den she looks at d date in d calendar. Its 22^nd Feb. dat means Raghu's b'day. She can never forget dis day.

Antara: Happy B'day Raghu. Pls always be happy nd safe. I may not be wid u today but I'll always pray for ur happiness. Try to forget me Raghu although I don't know whether I would be able to forget u but I wish dat u forget me nd move on in ur lyf. I LOVE YOU RAGHU nd will always love you but I don't have courage left nw to trust u again.

******~~~~~~Back to Present~~~~~******

Nd since dat day everything changes in her lyf. She keeps herself busy in her work so dat she wont think about him but dat didn't seems to help her. because dere was not qa single moment wen she don't think about him. she has changed everything in her. Her personality, her attitude everything.

She has become very much Proffessional in her work. She does all her work wid perfection. After internship she joined Arman's company only as an Architect nd very soon she was promoted to Chief Architect of d company. She has won Young achiever's Award 2 tymes in a row. She makes her own identity, her own place in d society like she dreamt of. Everyone knows her as ANTARA KAUL, every company wants to do project wid her. for outer world she's ANTARA KAUL a successful Architect but for her she's still d same Antara whose heart is wid Raghu who's just lonely in her lyf without him

As soon as she thinks dat she has settled down in her lyf she calls her Mom nd Misha also over dere. she wants to leave Arman's place nw as nw she wont be living alone over here but again his parents stopped her from leaving derefore she decided to live over dere as a paying guest. dis was her only condition to stay over dere to which dey Agreed. Misha has joined Fashion Designing institute over dere. though Antara couldnt understand hw her mond is suddenly diverted towards Fashion world but she didnt stopped her also. she wants her to do work of her interest nd today she's a well known Fashion Designer

Not only outside but she has changed herself from inside also. She realizes dat she don't have right to bother others due to her own past, her own turmoil derefore she started pretending to forget everything nd moved on in her lyf. But only she knows dat it was not true. Dis was just a mask which she has wore for d outer world dat she's happy, dat she had moved on but d truth is dat she haven't. she still thinks of him, she still prays for his happiness. D punishment which she has given to Raghu was more to her. She don't know anything about Raghu nd his lyf but she prays everyday for his well-being nd happiness.

She tells herself everyday dat she's happy, she has moved on but at d end of d day she realizes dat she was not happy. Hw can be wen her heart, her soul is wid d Person who is away from her. Just like today where everyone was so happy for her but yet she was not happy whole-heartedly. Her dream project is going to be fulfilled but yet dere was sumthing which was making her restless. God knows wat?

She tooks a deep breath nd again opens her Laptop. As soon as she Log-in to her Skype account she saw someone online waiting for her. a wide smile crept on her face seeing dat person online.

Antara: Hi!

Other side: hey where have u been yaar? I've been waiting for u from so long? U were not taking my call also?

Antara: Sorry was got busy.

Other side: its ok. Aaj ke din sab Maaf

OMG YAAR OSAM i loved it sooo much this story is the bet pls cont asap cuz im dying to read more

Antara has to leave for India next morning nd she was doing her final Packings. She was very excited to go back to India but fear of meeting Raghu over dere was overwhelming. May be sumtym during her stay she may face him over dere. May be dey can come face to face wat if he was still waiting for her, but den she shrug off all her thought. She told herself dat he must have moved on by now. He won't be waiting for her especially after d way she walked out from his lyf leaving him alone nd devasted. No dis was just her thought.

Antara (To herself): wat d hell r u thinking Antara? Y would he wait for u? U urself has left him? he must have moved on by now. nd waise bhi u r going over dere for ur Project nd will concentrate on dat only. Nd y u think dat u'll meet Raghu over dere. Naik's Constructions is not Raghu's so dere is no chance of meeting him over dere. Just stop all ur stupid thoughts.

Her trail of thoughts has been broken wen she heard Arman's nd Shilpa's voice. It seems dat dey r on some kind of Argument

Antara: Lo, fir shuru ho gaye

In d mean tym both came to her Room

Shilpa: Antara, apne dost ko samjha lo, faltu me mujhse argument kar raha hai

Before Antara could say anything Arman spoke

Arman: Antara, I was not arguing, I was just telling her politely

Shilpa: o ya dat was ur politeness rite? Shouting at top of ur voice

Arman: u irritated me

Shilpa: nd u r irritating me nw

Antara who was watching dere cat-dog fight from so long has to speak nw

Antara: will u both shut up nd tell me wats d Matter

Shilpa: Antara, I was saying to him dat I want to go to India wid u, but he says dat I can't go wid u?

Antara: y?

Shilpa: he says dat if I go wid u den he'll miss me badly nd won't be able to concentrate on any thing (she said while blushing)

Antara: o! to ye baat hai kyun Mr. Arman Malik

Arman: Antara its not like dat ok. I was just saying to her dat u'll be busy over dere wid d project nd derefore she gets bored over dere

Shilpa: o really? Datsy u were saying dat if I want to go den u'll also accompany me nd we both go wid Antara

Antara: Arman wats dis nw?

Arman: Kiddo dnt listen to her ok.

Shilpa: y she wont listen to me

Arman: Bcoz she's my friend

Shilpa: She's my friend too ok

Antara: acha stop u two. Wats wrong wid both of u, engagement ho chuki hai but still fighting like kids. Tum dono na bilkul Machmach nd Ruksana ki tarah ho, wo bhi baat baat pe aise hi ladte the nd fir main aur Raghu...

She left her sentence in d mid only as soon as Raghu's name came out from her mouth but she regains herself realizing dat she's wid Arman nd Shilpa

Antara: Arman, u r not going to India wid me

Arman: But kiddo...

Antara: Enough no more arguments nw. Arman if u'll go to India wid me den who'll handle d clients over here. Uncle wont be able to handle all dis alone so its final u r not cuming

Shilpa: Yes! Dat means m going wid her. U stay over here

Antara: dnt be so happy Shilpa u r also not cuming

Shilpa: But y?

Antara: if u'll cum wid me den who'll handle ur cases over here, I?

Shilpa: Dat wont be a problem Antara I'll manage. But pls I want to cum; I have never been to India. Pls Pls Pls

Antara: Shilpa, no more arguments

Both Arman nd Shilpa makes a sad face to which rolls over her eyes

Antara: C'mon guys stop behaving like kids nw. I know y u both wan to cum wid me becoz m going to India after so long but c'mon guys I m not kid I can take care of myself. India is not new to me I had spend whole 21 yrs over dere.

Arman:But Kiddo...

Antara: Arman, Shilpa main hamesha ke liye thodi na India ja rahi hoon, its just a matter of few months after dat I'll cum back. Nd Shilpa wen my project will be about to finish den I'll call u over dere nd den u can have a full tour of India. Happy nw?

Both didn't said anything

Antara: c'mon yaar ab aise sad faces mat banao. I m going tomorrow so c'mon nw smile both of u.

Dey both smiles as it make Antara happy. Next day Antara left for India nd Arman, Shilpa nd Misha has came at d airport to bid her. she didn't remember hw many tymes all 3 of dem has told her to call dem wenever she needs sumthing over dere. She asures dem dat she'll take care of her nd will cum back soon. Announcement for Security heck held nd she leaves from dere bidding dem final Bye.

*************************************************

Finally she reaches to India. Her country, her City from where she has gone 5 yrs back nd today after 5 yrs she's again over here. God knows wat turn wil her lyf take nw. she's here for Good or for Bad. But frankly she don't want to think about all dat rite nw. rite nw she wants to feel d warmth in d winds of her country because sumwhere dese winds have touched him also. Den she quickly snaps out of her thought. Wat was she thinking she thought. She was thinking about Raghu. Well she knows dat dis will happen. Afterall she's at d place where she had so many memories. She takes a cab nd moves towards d her flat. Her house has been rented nw a days to some family derefore Arman has arranged a flat for her at India. After 2 hrs of her journey she finally reaches to her flat; thanx to Mumbai traffic. O gosh! Hw much she has missed all dat at US. She changes into her night dress nd soon drifted off to sleep praying dat everything happens good next day.

Dere Raghu felt an unknown feeling of happiness in his heart. he heard in his sleep dat sumone is calling his name nd saying sumthing to him "I m Back Raghu, I came back to u". He wakes up from his sleep nd looks at Antara's Photo.

Raghu (to himself): wats happening to me? Y do I felt dat Antara was here nd she was saying dat she's back. But hws dis possible? She's at US na. Is she ok over dere? Babaji pls keep her away from all problems. But y m feeling so much complete today like my biggest wish is going to cum true soon.

Next morning Antara was getting ready. She has meeting wod Mr. Khurana at 11 am nd its already 9 am. As per Arman he's very punctual nd derefore she cant take risk of going late especially knowing d Mumbai traffic. She reads her presentation file once again to see dat everything is upto d mark. She was really nervous today. She has never been dis much nervous in dese 5 years but today she don't know y but her heart is pounding very fast. May be its her Dream Project datsy. She thought. She just closed her eyes nd takes a deep breath

"Wenenvr u get nervous close ur eyes nd just take a deep breath nd even better just think about me nervousness apne aap chali jayegi. Afterall u r thinking about Raghu Naik"

She instantly opens her eyes wen she reminds wat he use to say to her wenever she feels nervous during her exams. She tells dis to him nd he makes her relax saying d same thing. She again takes a deep breath nd looks at d portrait of Babaji

Antara: Kya chahte ho aap? Kyun baar baar mujhe uski yaad dila rahe ho? I knw dat dis city belongs to him also but iska matlab ye to nahi na ki aap baar baar mujhe uski yaad dilao. He must have moved on in his lyf nd I also wanted to concentrate on my project isliye pls apne ye games band kijiye.

She said nd gives a one last look to Babaji's portarait nd leaves for NAIK CONSTRUCTION.

**********************************

NAIK CONSTRUCTION, 10:30 am:

Raghu is in his cabin wid Adi looking at d project file for which d meeting is going to be held. He still cant believe it dat someone can design exactly d same deign of orphanage like Antara wants.

Adi: sir it's a very gud deal, dis joint venture will definitely give us profit

Raghu: not everything is done for Profit Adi. Aur ye project mere liye isliye important nahi hai kyunki ye profitable hai but because its gives me happiness nd to sumone else

Adi: Sorry sir... I don't get u

Raghu: Let it be Adi. Anyways wat about our meeting at 11 am?

Adi: Sir its confirmed. D chief Architect of Divine Constructions will be here shortly. She's also very punctual just like u

Raghu: ok nd had u arranged for her accommodation etc

Adi: Sir, I want to but she said dat she had already arranged everything so I cant

Raghu: ok, Adi she's important to us make sure she wont get any kind of disappointment from us

Adi: yes sir

Raghu: by the way, wats her name?

Adi: Sir her name is...

He couldn't able to take her name as Raghu's cell phone rings. He gestures Adi to leave nd he lefts from dere. It was a call from Machmach telling him dat he'll be late for d meeting as he has to go wid Ruksana to doctor for her Regular check-ups. Raghu understands d situation nd asks him to carry on wid it, till nw he'll handle everything over here nd by saying dis he cuts d call.

***********************************

Antara stands in front of d NAIK CONSTRUCTION, d place where her dream is going to be fulfilled. She suddenly starts having an unknown excitement, an unknown happiness in her heart like sumthing big is going to be happen today. She takes a deep breath nd moves inside d premises of NAIK CONSTRUCTION.

Raghu in his cabin had a feeling of completeness in him. he immediately gets up from his chair nd start pacing in his cabin due to sudden restlessness. he goes towards d window nd opens it to have sum fresh air. The winds seem to change their direction today nd dere's a sudden feeling of happiness in it. He could feel her fragrance in d air today like dey were giving him signs of her Arrival. He closes his eyes just to feel it. As Antara entered in d premises of NAIK CONSTRUCTION Raghu felt felt like his wait is going to over nw. Like he is going to have d biggest happiness of his Lyf today. From last nite he was having d same feeling. God knows y? he was still lost in his thoughts wen someone knocked to his cabin. He turned around nd saw Adi over dere

Adi: Sir d chief Architect of Divine Constructions has arrived.

Raghu: hhmmm take her to d conference hall. I'll be there shortly.

Adi: ok sir.

He said nd left from dere. Raghu goes to his chair, opens d drawer nd looks at Antara's Photo once again.

Raghu: Antara ur dream is going to be cum true. She's here nw. just wish dat everything goes fine.

He smiles nd laves for d conference hall.

***************************************

Adi welcomes Antara at NAIK CONSTRUCTION nd Pinki takes her towards d conference hall. Everybody who was concerned wid dis Project were present over dere but her eyes unknowingly searching for Mr. Khurana. She don't know y but she was curious to see him.

Adi: Mam sir will be here within few mins. till den let me introduce to d members present over here.

Antara nodded nd Adi starts introducing her to everyone but Antara's heart is waiting to get introduced to Mr. Khurana of whom Arman has praised dis much nd whom she thought to be as Raghu for some tym.

Raghu quickly makes his way towards d conference hall. He cant get late even by a minute. As soon as he entered inside d conference hall, he saw at d figure standing in front of him. He couldn't understand dat was he dreaming or it was truth, his Angel is standing in front of him. Antara too looks at d person who has just entered inside d hall nd her throat went dry. Not even in her dreams she has thought of meeting Raghu again like dis. dere eyes locked instantly nd dey couldn't see anything but each other. The world around dem seems to be still. Lots of emotions were playing in both of their eyes; Happiness, Love, pain, anger, restlessness, loneliness. He just stood dere dumbstruck looking at his Angel right in front of him. tears has started forming in both of dere eyes. he instantly wanted to hug her close, to complain her y she left like dat but didn't as he have to maintain d professionalism also

Everyone was confused over dere due to sudden silence including Adi. Finally he decided to broke d silence

Adi: Mam, he's d MD of Naik's Constructions. Mr. Raghu Naik and Sir she's d chief Architect of divine Construction Ms. Antara Kaul.

As soon as Adi re-introduced dem dey both got a biggest surprise of dere lyf. Raghu couldn't belive dat d person who's going to fulfill his Antara's dream is Antara herself. She's d architect of Divine constructions. O Gosh! Y didn't he ask for her name before. She too stands dere wid here eyes wide open wen she saw d MD of NAIK'S CONSTRUCTIONis none other den Raghu himself. He moved more closer to her just to make sure dat he was not dreaming. Yes she was dere for real, he was not dreaming. She has come back, sje has come back to him.

Raghu (in his heart): Antara, Antara tum waapas aa gayi

Antara (in her heart): Mr. Khurana is Raghu. NAIK'S CONSTRUCTIONka MD Raghu hai.

She didn't understand wat game her fate is playing wid her. she's again back to d same place where she has started her journey of new lyf. She has again came face to face wid dat person whom she has left 5 yrs ago who has changed totally nw. God knows wat else their destiny has stored for both of dem nw.
