---------------------------
Khushi's Cabin,

"Please take your seat, Mr.Raizada," said Khushi, adopting a professional mask as she took her seat opposite to his. The intensity in his eyes was unnerving and disconcerting to say the least. He had changed drastically in terms of appearance but the language of his eyes which expressed volumes about his tempestuous emotions towards her, be it obsession or love, had not changed a bit through the eight years, she noted.

"Since I know a part of this story, maybe we should begin where we ended. How did sacred realization happen?" she questioned him, mockery lining her voice and her eyes as cold as it would require for a heart to stop.

Her tone twisted the dagger pierced in his heart. He knew he deserved every bit of the pain and she deserved every bit of the pleasure she would get by tormenting him. Maybe that was the way he was supposed to earn his redemption.

"It wasn't till Payal prepared herself to leave Shantivan that I realized what actual love was. She held herself responsible for what happened and she was ready to forsake her own love and when Akash stood up to leave along with her, that moment I realized how wrong I actually was. Before that moment I regretted letting you go but after that moment, till now and probably till my last breath, I would regret hurting you," he whispered, his amber eyes clashing with her hazel ones.

They searched for any signs of warmth, any signs of forgiveness which would pull his wretched soul out of the vortex of darkness in which he had found himself in since she left but it seemed that destiny decided to not bestow mercy onto him any sooner.

Khushi, on the other hand, was facing a crisis. She had vowed to place her professionalism before her personal interests when she took her oath as a therapist and she could feel her heart preparing her to betray that oath.

She had seen his panic attacks and could swear on her life that he was not faking them but there was no way she could be sure that he was not faking his emotions at that particular instant. The Arnav Singh Raizada she has known was the most manipulative person one could have the misfortune to meet. He could twist the most trivial of matters in a way that could cause a war that sought everything dear.

"How would you describe your regret to be? Given a chance, would you want to change what you did in the past?" she asked, knowing well that she was toeing the line of professionalism. But her heart which craved to hurt Arnav just as he hurt her could not let go of an opportunity so well presented.

Arnav failed to find a similarity between the Khushi Gupta he had known and the Maya Chaturvedi seated in front of him. Gone was the gullible, docile and fragile Khushi who would whimper if someone else was hurt. The one in front of him was the one who wouldn't hesitate to hurt the ones who hurt her. His conscience reminded him that he deserved her hatred more than anyone else and everything else.

"Regret was like a burning amber which had a searing touch which was more addictive than any drug. It killed me every second, yet, I wanted to embrace it as close as I could. After all, that was the only emotion which colored the memories I had of you. When you walked out of my life, you took away the zing of it, the colors of it. But you left behind one emotion and I chose to drown myself in it, because you would have wanted it," he confessed with unwavering and never-flickering sincerity which only made her more confused and hence more furious.

"And about the changing the past part, Mr.Raizada?" she prompted, setting her anger aside as curiosity took the better of her.

"I wouldn't change the part of marrying you ever. I wouldn't change the part of loving you. But yes, if given a chance, I would definitely take a different way to win you over. Heck, I would win that chance, no matter what it takes, if it is possible but alas, life is not that merciful," he complained weakly, with a sad smile playing on his lips.

It troubled Khushi more than she would ever care to admit to see the chairperson of AR in such a depressed state. The new side of ASR seemed to threaten her sanity as she wondered if anyone could manipulate so well or he was being truthful.

"Life is certainly not merciful. Because it considers your choices and uses them against you in the most painful way possible. And we come down to choices you made. Like you have said, there were several ways to tackle the situation in hand. But you chose to act with aggressiveness which gave idea of everything except love. Why or rather what compelled you to take that step?" she questioned him. She questioned herself if she was the most fortunate person to have the opportunity to have her most troubling questions answered or the most unfortunate to be in that situation where you would hear your culprit talk about what made them torment you.

"I guess, it goes down to upbringing. My parents died in a car accident when I was very young. I was brought up by my maternal grandparents who never left any of wishes unfulfilled. I was born with a silver spoon and the thought that I wouldn't get something would torment me to an extent where I would go mad. And then I met you. Everyone whom I met till then was behind me for something. But you were innocent. I was probably so used to girls using me to climb up the corporate ladder, or status or anything that you enchanted me. Someone so different yet so forbidden and as they say, forbidden fruit is the sweetest," he said with his voice thoughtful and eyes reminiscent.

On the other hand, Khushi's analytical brain signed her that his upbringing was probably the biggest reason behind his behavior as she had learned. She sighed deeply as her brain was completely disturbed.

"So that's what your feelings were, Mr.Raizada? A conquest? To win the forbidden fruit? And the prize? Bloated ego?" she said suddenly, slamming her palm against the table roughly, frightening Arnav with her sudden actions.

Nice one

Loved it

This therapy will help both to heal the pain and suffering both went thru without and with each other. Khushi will be getting answers she needed from Arnav and Arnav will know to what extent he tormented an innocent girl because of his ego.

Waiting for the next one

Thanks for the PM
