Ch3.
Shivaay came down for breakfast when he saw the breakfast table empty. He called out the servant and asked him about others.
"Sir,baaki sab ne aapse pehle naashta karliya hai.. Omkara sir apne exhibitions ke gallery dekhne gaye hai aur Ishana madam apne maayke gayi hai.. Rudra sir gym gaye huye hai aur Saumya madam apne friend ke ghar gayi hai. Daadi aur Jahnvi madam mandir gaye hai aur Tej sir office gaye hai.."
"Aur Annika?" Shivaay asked.
"Annika madam apne kaam se bahar gayi hai.." Servant replied and went away.
Shivaay was astonished seeing at the sudden change of behaviour in his family members. Shivaay had his breakfast alone.
Just then,Jahnvi and Daadi came from Mandir and saw Shivaay in the breakfast table. Shivaay saw them and greeted them.
"Mummyji,aapko yaad hai Udaipur ke Mrs.Rathore. Tej ke business associate Pratap Rathore ki biwi.. Unka call aaya thha.. Unke bahu Jyoti ki godh bharai hai.. Aap chalengi?" Jahnvi asked.
"Zaroor chalenge hum.." Daadi replied.
"Kal keliye tickets book karwati hu kyunki parso function hai.." Jahnvi replied and called someone and booked two tickets for tomorrow noon.
Shivaay approached to them for a talk when they got up and left for packing their clothes for tomorrow. Shivaay felt weird.
Just then,Omkara-Rudra-Saumya entered the mansion,smiling.. They noticed Shivaay but ignored him and sat on the sofa.
"Ram Singh.. Paani lana zara..." Omkara huffed after a tiring day of work.
"Rudra... tumhe phirse kahin jaana hai kya?" Saumya asked.
"Tumhe bataya thha na... Humare college friend Abhay ki shaadi hai.. Ussi keliye humein Singapore jaana hai.. Haaye... Tumhe yaad hai humari destination wedding huyi thi wahaan pe?" Rudra told while Saumya blushed.
"Kabki flight hai?" Omkara asked.
"Kal dopaher ki flight hai,bhaiya.. Saara packing hochuka hai.. Just kuch cheezein rakhni hai..." Saumya replied.
"Tum logo ne bataya nahi ki tumdono Singapore jarahe ho?" Shivaay asked.
"Pre planned thha.. Saumya,upar chalo.. Kuch cheezein last minute ke changes karni hai..." Rudra asked and went towards his room with Saumya.
Shivaay was astonished and shocked at the sudden change of behaviour of his family members. He approached Omkara but he also made an excuse of having an important meeting with the gallery owner for the exhibition and left Oberoi Mansion..
Shivaay was utterly frustrated at the sudden change of behaviour of his family members towards him. He was irritated and was about to leave for office when Annika entered with a file in her hand. She seemed to be happy..
"Kya main jaan sakta hu ki tum kahaan gayi thhi,Annika?" Shivaay asked calmly.
Shivaay's voice stooped her.. She raised her head and replied turning towards Shivaay..
"Main Priyanka ke University gayi thhi to bring my certificates.. Actually,main bohut bore horahi thhi,so,maine ek online MBA course keliye apply kiya in London School of Economics. They have selected my application and wanted to see my certificates.. So,wahi lene gayi thhi.. Any problem?" Annika replied.
"Mujhse bina puche tumne itna bara decision le liya? How dare you?" Shivaay shouted at her.
"Chillaiye mat,Shivaay Singh Oberoi.. Main koi dudh peeti choti bacchi nahi hu jo kisike upar depend karu apne life ke decisions lene keliye. I am a young woman and independent enough to make my own decisions. Aur,aapne abhi abhi kya kahaan? Maine aapse puchhe bina decision liya? Kabhi aapne mujhe humare rishtey keliye decision lene diya? Kya aapne mujhe kabhi bhi woh haq diya? Kya aapne mujhe bataya aapke faisle ke baare mein ki aapne yeh shaadi ki kyunki yeh ek business deal thha aapke aur mere parents' ke beech? Bataya aapne kya? Nahi na.. Toh phir main kyun aapke piche kutte billiyo ki tarha ghumti rahu aapke decision janne keliye? Main aapke faislo ki mohtaaj nahi hu.. Main jo chahu jaise chahu,kar sakti hu aur aap aise mujhpe haq nahi jata sakhte hai,samjhe aap Mr.Shivaay Singh Oberoi? Agar nahi samjhe toh apne dimaagh pe yeh baat bitha lijiye.. aapne jo dard mujhe diya hai na,main uske liye kabhi bhi aapko maaf nahi karungi..." Annika replied and went away.
Shivaay was shocked at her outburst. He never expected that he will have to see this Chandi Roop of Annika. He left for his office to divert his mind from these happenings.
Precap: Annika to leave for London.
