#Shivika #SS-------- THE NIGHT IN JUNGLE [part11,12- page9 10/12/17] - Page 4

Ok first of all I never planned to update today. But today is Titli di's birthday. Who's my one of the most constant reader, supporter, amazing friend, an amazing critic. Who not just praises me when I write good but even tell me where I did wrong, where I should improvise, what isn't going well with the story all in all my favorite reader. And it's her favorite story so the update is dedicated to her.

OK this part went so sad. All thanks to todays rain and Enrique Iglesius's Hero that all my sadness went into this. So please don't kill me after reading this. Just know one thing I won't be ending here. So don't take trace. and enjoy.

It was dawn now. It has stopped raining long back. The soft sunrays have started to peep in from the natural curtain of leaves into the cave making the cave a lil piece of dream.

And the chirping of birds could be heard clearly. And this disturbed Shivaay's sleep. Being a light sleeper, Shivaay woke up immediately. And the sight infront of him took his breath away, his Annika. But the very moment it hurt him too. That he can't call her as his. He doesn't have the right to do so. His Annika hasn't permitted him to do so. No no...she isn't actually his. Not till now atlist. But he truly wish she was, she was his. She was his Annika. He had the right to call her as his. To the angelic face infront of his who's sleeping face making her more breath taking. Those long eye lashes, that pointed nose, those curved eye brows, those lips, she is a real sight to be held. But unfortunetly not his. She isn't his. And ...

She hates him. His Annika hates him.

But, she may not be his, he is her. Totally, entirely her, he is annika's Shivaay now. My be it would be difficult for her to accept him as the new Shivaay or, may be...she won't be able to accept him ever.. he inhaled a sharp breath but he'll be her. He'll wait for her acceptance till she needs. Or till his last breath.

And, if ever she decides to marry someone else, if she falls in love with someone ELSE he'll happily let her leave. Leave him forever and have a little happy world for her. But he won't be a hindrance in the way of her happiness.

And he started crying. It was paining his heart too much. As if he is suffering from a heart attack. Actually more painful then that.

But before that, he'll take a chance, to prove his love to her. His first and last love, his LIFE, HIS Annika...

In mean time Annika woke up, but couldn't find Shivaay anywhere. But after five minutes he came back.

"Oh! You woke up? I'm sorry but we need to walk back till our car. As it's not possible for a car to enter in this forest so..."

"Let's go. It's not like I can't manage without your car." And she started moving cutting her off and hurting his heart more.

'I'm sorry Shivaay to hurt you. But protection is always better than cure. May be you are hurt now. But the instant you'll go back to OM you'll forget me. So it's better if we stay apart from now.'

By giving him a last glance she went ahead.

It was hurting him more and more. This disinterest, avoidance from her was killing him. He was feeling like crying, but he kept on walking.

When they reached near their car, instead of going to the car she kept on waiting on the road looking at the both sides if she can get an auto or a taxi.

"You won't get a taxi at this time Annika."

"Taxi drivers ain't rich like you Shivaay that they would keep sleeping so late. I'll get a taxi and I can wait. Alone. You are so busy so may leave."

He took a deep breath. 'Why are you doing this with me Annika? Why are you hurting me so much? Why do you need to compare everyone with me?'

"I know Annika, neither they are rich nor a sexist like me. So you feel safer with a sranger than me more. But trust me when once you made it clear that you don't like me, or more precisely hate me so much then I won't go near you. You are safe. But, there are more dangerous people who won't leave you after you push them or call them a womanizer. And I'm not that bad that I'll leave you here for being their prey. So, please come with me."

Saying this he went and stood opening the door of passenger seat for Annika.

Annika who wasn't anything of this was shaken to the core hearing him saying those things about himself. Though she was the one who accused him of being all of this, but hearing him repeating those words made her feel so low. She felt like crying and hug him tight, but she maintained a stern face and sat on the seat.

The journey went in scilence.

The silence was suffocating shivaay. So he played the media player. And the song started playing was Hero by Enrique Iglesius. The voice, the lyrics, the rhythym everything was falling into pieces with their present state of mind.

(pLEASE WATCH THE VIDEO)

Would you dance if I asked you to dance?
Or would you run and never look back?
Would you cry if you saw me crying?
And would you save my soul tonight?

Would you tremble if I touched your lips?
Or would you laugh? Oh, please tell me this
Now would you die for the one you love?
Oh hold me in your arms tonight

I can be your hero baby
I can kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away

Would you swear that you'll always be mine
Or would you lie? Would you run and hide?
Am I in too deep? Have I lost my mind?
I don't care, you're here tonight

I can be your hero baby
I can kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away

Oh, I just hold you
I just hold you, oh yeah
Am I in too deep? Have I lost my mind?
Well, I don't care, you're here tonight

I can be your hero baby
I can kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away

I can be your hero baby
I can kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away
You can take my breath away

I can be your hero...

He stopped the car in front of her chawl. Both were crying, actually, their heart were crying.

She went to her chawl and slumped down near her door. Crying. Like a fool. But her cries stopped hearing her phone ring.

"Annika!"

"Yes"

"Where are you? Please come fast. We are waiting for you here."

"For me? I wasn't supposed to be there right?"

"What? Why? Shivaay's already at Tia's place to make everything correct. And now we are waiting for you. Wear the best dress you have and come here."

"But why are you asking ME to doll up myself? And you are waiting for me?"

"Yes, for you.. who else would we wait for Annika? You made his day Annika. Finally after all this year he is throwing a party today. Please come here."

"But..."

"Come fast..."

And the call ended making her dumb founded. She was clueless about what's happening. Why Om was saying that she has made his day? She hasn't done anything...

And then her door bell rang...

It was night time.

All the guests started coming to the Party. Shivaay was there too but was looking gloomy. Though he tried to cancel the party after returning back but Rudra was adamant for it. But this Party was meaningless for him now.

And in the mean time Annika entered.

Looking all gorgeous. And the moment she looked at Shivaay

her eyes got sealed with his. But she looked away as soon as possible.

But as soon as Rudra saw her he just jumped on Annika and dragged her towards pool side.

"I'm so happy today didi. Finally Bhaiyaa will get married now. With the best girl in the world." He said holding her shoulder jumping."

"Is your Bhaiyaa back from Tia's place?"

"yes. And she has no problem you know. So we'll announce it today." He said grinning.

"BTW how is it to be Bhaiyaa's GF di?" Rudra asked teasing.

"It's not is, it should be was right Annika? Cause as per the plan Annika won't be Shivaay's GF anymore." Om said smiling.

And Om saw Shivaay there. "And thank you for giving him the best gift ever Annika. You made his life by your decision yesterday." Om said smiling in content looking at them.

She to see Shivaay standing there. Om's words kept ringing in her mind. She isn't her GF anymore after tonight she can't be her GF. Tia has no problem with the marriage. She was boiling in rage and seeing Shivaay didn't helped her. And she slapped him crying.

"Wow Mr. Shivaay Singh Oberoi. Wow. Hats off to you Mr. Oberoi. So I declined your proposal and you are taking revenge like this? By mocking me that I'm so idiot to fall in your trap. But let me clear it Om I wasn't, isn't and won't be his girl friend ever. Why you did this with me Shivaay? You proposed me yesterday. And after my rejection you were acting to be hurt and now going to announce your marriage with Tia? Wow Mr. Oberoi wow."

She said crying holding his coller. It was enough to kill Shivaay. He was dead. But Om and Rudra was shocked. And now angry. But before they could say something Pinky came there.

"What are they saying Shivaay? You canceled your marriage with Tia? You won't marry her? But you said you'll announce your marriage. And what is happening?"

"Annika you are heres too? Do you knows anything whom he's marrying? Who's the girls? And did you gives the gift to Shivaay?"

"Which ...gi..gift aunty?"

"What which gift? Rudra was chantings that's you are givings Shivaay the best Birth Day today. So I thoughts..."

"Today is Shivaay's Birthday?" she asked in feeble tone crying looking at Shivaay who was standing still there. As if someone sucked all his life out of his body.

"What? U don'ts knows it? So why is the partys happenings? So have you gaves it?"

"Yes choti maa Annika di gave it to Bhaiyaa. But gift bhaiyaa ko bahut mehengi par gayi. And bhaiyaa Tia se shaadi karenge. Woh na kisi reason se gussa ho gye the Tia didi pe but abhi abhi sort out hua. Woh Tia didi se hi shaadi karenge."

"Tu achanak Tia ko did bol rahi hai?"

"People makes mistake choti maa. But they should learn. And I learnt today that Tia is so good. At list she won't spoil my Bhaiyaa's Birthday like this. Let's leave choti maa."

Saying this an angry Rudra took away a confused Pinky leaving three people behind.

An angry Om, a devastated Shivaay and a broken, shocked, guilty Annika who was crying and hurting her Shivaay and spoiling his Birth Day.

oK SO DONE WITH THIS PART. pLEASE DO VOTE AND COMMENT AND LETME KNOW HOW WAS IT...
All chameli and chiknis are welcome. Thank you.
Tata...
Singning off
Pri.
.

Annika sat down on the floor with a thud.

She was hurt, upset , pained and was in GUILT. The hurt of hurting your own love is too much. And when you know that, that one person was ready to his every resolve for you and you pushed him away.

She was broken, completely broken; and she looked at Shivaay who was sitting far away with a blank look on his face; staring at nothing particular. And Rudy's words kept ringing on her mind.

"What happeneds Shivaay? Why you canceled your marriage with Tia?"

"What you gift him Annika in his BIRTHDAY?"

"why everyone is saying you canceled the marriage?"

"She gave her gift to bhaiyaa but it was too expensive for bhaiyaa."

"He'll marry Tia DI only. She won't break Bhaiyaa heart at list."

"She gave the best BIRTHDAY GIFT TO bhaiyaa."

" Human made mistakes, and I did too. Annika gave her gift."

"God what have I done!!!!!"

Annika shouted loud. A heart wrenching cry, showing her pure agony. She broke Shivaay, who loved her genuinely. For the first time in her entire life; apart from Shahil. Who really thought of her. Who went against all his believes, principles, who tried to break the hard wall built around his heart for her. And what she did in return? She hurt him more. She accused him of using her. He said he loved her; but she took it in wrong way. Why couldn't she get the simplest thing that if he really felt that way then he could have forced himself on her. It wasn't like there was someone or some media people there that anyone would know that and he'll get scared of a scandle. And about her complaining she can't do anything; at list against the man who can turn the whole Mumbai upside down just on his fingertips. But he didn't. she even saw pure love and hurt in his those beautiful eyes. She saw how all the colors were lost from those eyes when she accused him.

Why? Why am I so stupid God? Why?

She kept crying. But after crying so long her cries reduced to sob and her voice was chocking; but who cares? She wasn't in a state of thinking and he was too broken to see her.

After almost an hour when Annika tried to reach him; he just left from there stumbling a little; and locked his room on her face. Not in anger. She would have been happy if he was angry; if he shouted on her; if he accused her of being middle class. But no; he did nothing of these. He just walked away past her; like a lifeless body, a robot. Who has life in his body but nothing is working. His eyes looked just nowhere in particular. His colorful eyes were looking grey; not the charming one but the lifeless grey. The grey which comes out when something lose its color.

What have I done to him? Was the only thing that came out from his vocal cord.

"May be he deserved it."

Came a sigh from behind. Om who was a silent spectator of all the happenings said in a low tone and sat beside her.

"No Om; he doesn't. He doesn't deserve this. He doesn't deserve me. He was right. I'm nowhere near him Om. I hurt him. I broke him. You heard what Rudra said Om? He, he... he is...he regret to call me di. He regret to call me as his di Om. Rudra was just like Shahil to me Om. M...my..my baby brother. A..an..and look he..h..he ha..hates me. He hates me now Om. H..he thinks I desperately broke his brother Om. And I know he is right Om. I know. I know I don't deserve this. I'm dep..deprived of all this. A..al..all this l..lo..love, family, fr..friends...a..aren't for m..me Om. I know Om ev..even you h..hate me. You hate me na?" Annika asked him crying. She was completely broken.

She lost her everything... again... for the 3rd time now. She lost her parents and she even doesn't know when. Then she lost Shahil's parents and Now...she lost her Shivaay. Her brother Rudra and her best friend Om. She was devastated now.

"When I said I hate you Annika?"

"Why won't you Om? I broke your brother."

And she broke into cries again.

"No, Annika. Trust me I don't. yeah, as you said you broke him, she is broken now and seeing him like this it hurts me as well. So I'm hurt. But I don't hate you. Cause I have seen him being more rude to you than you were with him. Whatever you did was wrong but not you didn't do it intentionally. It wasn't your fault. Whatever you said to him, or how you thought of him was something shown by him to you. He was the one who always projected himself to you in the meanest way. He only show you down, humiliated you, made you believe those about him. Even meeting with Mallika may be made you felt that way and when you knew he was in a live-in relationship with her. And neither being in a closed room with Tia helped you. But trust me he never crossed his limits. He is a traditional folk. Always behaves according to traditions. And even his family values and respect come in between that if something happens then it'll affect his family reputation. For him nothing really exists apart from his family and family's prestige. That's why Dadi never really worries for him in these cases at list. Hearing you two today I felt something may have happened. I know I shouldn't talk about all these with you I'm sorry. But if he did then I must admit he was true to you. There's can't be a bigger proof than this that how much he wants you. A person who doesn't even holds her own girl friends hand without asking her about it then he surely respect girls. And in case of you he does that thousands time more than he does anyone else. The things with you accused him; has hurt him a lot. I can't deny you broken her but then too I can't hate you Annika. Cause I know there's only you who can mend him again. No one, I repeat no one including me and Rudra couldn't make him agree to celebrate his birthday; but today for you; to propose you he arranged it. He's trying to break every damn wall he built till now around him for you. I know as for now he's hurt; but you can't lose hope dear. You are Annika. The unstoppable Annika. So have faith in yourself and your love and everything will be fine. Don't lose hope." Om said patting her back. She was listening to him till now with attention. With silence and as soon as Om finished she looked down and released a deep breath which even she was unaware of holding till now.

"But now, how can I talk to him Pm? From where I will have the courage to look at him? To face him? To watch his colorful eyes which are nothing but dull now all thanks to me? I can't...Om...I can't."

She cried again looking down hugging his knees. She was broken. She wants to get him back; she really wants to rectify her mistakes. She really does. But she's not able to find that courage within him. After how she accused him, how brutally she shattered him.

"You can Annika. He is hurt, broken. He might face problems meeting you..." and she cried hearing Om say that but Om hugged her side ways, and continued... "But only you can bring him back. He will come back for sure seeing the hurt in your eyes. He will for sure. Don't worry. If you were able to make him feel the feeling of love then you will make him rediscover it again. Cause he loves you Annika; and love never dies. You know what..

Pyaar Hota nahi hai asani se, Asani se bhula bhi nahi jaata...

Dard Hota bahut hai iss pyar me; magar iss dard ke bina raha bhi nahi jaata...

(English Translation: Love doesn't happen easily, neither you can forget it in a blink

It pains a lot in love but you can't live without this pain even...)

[A stupid shayyari written by me. Tell me how's it?]

And he loved you. So he can't forget it easily, his hurt and pain might overshadow the love for sometime but love is the thing which never lose. And don't let your love lose Annika. You just can't let it happen. And your best friend is always there for you." Saying this he embraced Annika in warm protective hug which she needed a lot. She got the strength from which she lost after seeing Shivaay in that broken condition. Now she can fight. And she'll. She'll fight for him. For her love.

So tell me how's it? Don't forget to vote and comment. and ssly none just looked at the book yet no? I'm hurt.

Om's words kept ringing in her ears. She's sitting by the window now. And the full moon was soothing her mind. Moon has been the closest to her always. She always felt a relief looking at the moon, it really sooths her heart; from her childhood. The relation was made from the time she was in childhood and used to be locked in dark room of orphanage by the workers. From that time moon, and it's light has worked as balm for her wounds. That time; in darkness the moon was the only assurance that there is light waiting for her; may be a bit far from where she was that time but it was waiting there for her and one day she'll surely get it.

And today she was getting the same feeling; being in the dark room and seeing the full moon shining in all its glory. The only difference here was she was the reason behind this darkness around her today. The way she switched off the light of her own room herself at the same way she pushed him away from her. So far that the moon was seeming closer to her than Shivaay. And Annika shied.

But then again Om's word started ringing in her mind.

And she knew what she needs do now. She'lldo whatever might needed but she'll win him; her Shivaay back. At any cost. And she was determined.

Next Morning:-

It was cloudy morning. The sky was fully covered with thick black cloud. Making the ambience so gloomy. I seemed as if everything lost its color just like Shivaay and Annika.

When Annika entered the mansion she was completely drenched.

"Oh my maata Annika! What have you dones? Sees yourselfs once. You'll catchs colds beta." Pinky screamed in a worried and Dadi joined her too.

"Pinky is right Annika beta. How did this happen? Weren't you carrying an umbrella with you?" Dadi asked cupping her face.

"Oh actually dadi I was coming by an auto but it broke down in the middle of the road and even my umbrella broke so..."

"Oh God beta. You have should have beens carefulls na? And these autowalas na... So careless. How can they leaves a girl in the middles if the roads." Pinky said in a upset and angry. "But don't worrys beta. You gos to Prinku's room, you'll gets something to wear there. Ok. Don't stands here now. Go, otherwise you'll fall ill." Pinky finished with lot of care caressing her cheeks.

"It's Ok aunty I can manage."

"Shut up Annika. I tells a you change so you change. Now go." Pinky finished in a fake angry tone rolling her eyes. (I so miss this Pinky yr. She used to be too cute earlier.)

Having no other chance than listening to Pinky Aunty she left for Prinku's room hurriedly.

"God! What I thought and what's happening! I came here earlier so that I can speak to Billu Ji before he leaves and see here I am; all drenched looking nothing but a crow and I need to change now. My 2rs. kismat." She mumbled to herself all angry.

She went in Priyanka's room but she wasn't there as she left for college already as she had some kind of excursion that day.

So she went to her cupboard and found her cupboard where she keeps her Indian wears locked.

"Fail gaya raita. What'll I wear now?" And moving to her another closet she found all kind of short dresses only. ( Just like my "Journey" Pinku won't be that timid here too. As that no reason fumbling, and scared behavior annoys me to hell. I just hope you guys won't have any problem with that.)

At the end she picked a off shoulder full sleeve body con dress as that was longest she found.

Wearing it and adjusting her hair she went to her work place. But she was feeling a bit uneasy in that dress as she was wearing it for the first time.

Then she hurriedly left to meet dadi. While going she bumped into someone and the box that was in her hand fell on that person's leg, and he shrieked.

An worried Annika quickly sat down before him.

"Sorry I'm really sorry for hurting you. It wasn't intentional at all." She said in a guilt tone.

"But it's done Ms. Annika." He said in a cold emotionless voice.

"Shi...Shivaay" Annika mumbled. Her eyes went moist seeing him like that. The person who was joking, pulling her leg in the caf, was so happy and smiling like the happiest person inside the cave was now in front of him cold, totally cold. Devoid of any emotion, completely shattered. All because of her.

And a sob escaped her lips.

"Bi..Bi..Billu Ji" She sobbed...

"Don't. Just don't call me that... Only Dadi and my Annika had that right and you are none among them. So you may leave Ms. Annika." He said in a cold emotionless tone, hurt clearly visible in his eyes.

"Shi..Shivaay pl..please tr..try to un..understand me. I..I know I ma..made a blunder bu..but pl..." She tried to speak in a breaking tone but Shivaay cut her off.

"I really don't understand what are you doing here. What you want? Why are you talking to a guy like me who tried to play with your emotions who uses girls to fulfill his desires.."

"Just stop it Shivaay. I can't hear more. I'm sorry." Saying this she cried out loud and slumped down on the floor crying but kept mumbling sorry continuously.

Shivaay who was standing there was feeling immense pain in his heart seeing Annika crying like this but the hurt and heart break was too much that he left that place while a lone tear escaped from the corner of his eye for the first time after Annika's accusation.

She was completely broken listening to Shivaay. She found it hard to breath. She was suffocating. How can she break him like that? How? When he addressed her as Ms. Annika it pierced her heart and made it bleed. But she knew that she deserves this. For what she did. And with this she got up and started coming downstairs to find Shivaay there sitting on the couch which was so unusual for him alleast at office time. He usually stays busy in arranging his files or in phone calls and today he is sitting Idle.

Coming out from the initial shocked state she worked at his direction to find a equally astonished Janvi, Pinky and Dadi sitting there open mouthed looking at him.

"What? Asked Shivaay looking at them.

"Won't you go to office Billu? Dadi asked in a low confused expression.

"Why can't I stay here? He asked cocking an eyebrow.

"No no. You definitely can. But You don't stay at home usually no? So... Said Janvi in confusion.

"It's nothing like that. It's just I'm not feeling like it today. Saying this he started scrolling his phone.

Annika who just came and stood there, the box fell down from her hand. Not just that, Dadi just stood like she was given a 400 volt shock, the coffee mug fell from Janvi's hand the fashion magazine from Pinky's what Shivaay said next.

"I have a party to attend at Aer bar tonight so I'm leaving for Four Seasons hotel now. I'll be staying there the whole day and will come back tomorrow morning. He said in a oh-so-casual tone as if he does it everyday.

"You are my Shivaay only rights? Pinky spoke 1^st coming out of the shock.

"Yes Shivaay answered while climbing upstairs.

All the four women was staring at him and then at themselves alternatively. And annika sat down on the table not understanding anything what was happening.

After sometime he came down hurriedly in casuals taking everyone's breath out earning some loud gasps like "Oh my maata "Oh bte ki "Oh my God and "hyao rabba e ki hoya?

"What? He asked with a frown on his face looking up from his phone's screen.

"Ye..ye.. What's this Shivaay? Asked Pinky fumbling.

"I'm feeling I'm watching elder Rudra here. Said Janvi.

"What happened khoteya? Dadi asked as if she got a heart attack.

"Bi..Billu ji... You are wearing th..this? Asked Annika wide eyed.

"Why can't I? I thought the boys like me behaves like this only. He said looking straight into her eyes which made her look down and she knew it was for her. He was doing everything for her. He's too hurt. Oh God what should I do now?' mumbled Annika under her breath. She was so worried when Shivaay's next few words shocked her more.

"Wait Ms. Annika? What are you doing here? He said with a frown and arrogance.

"She is your wedding organizer Billu. Dadi said confused.

"Was Dadi. She was. The marriage isn't happening anymore then what will she do here? He asked looking at a shocked and crying Annika. She wasn't crying visually but the pain and hidden cry was clearly visible on her face if you see it clearly and not to mention it was well observed by Shivaay.

"She'll be staying here as event planner Shivaay. As Mom's birthday is coming in a few days so I wanna keep her here. And then I have an upcoming exhibition and who can understand my requirements better than her? So she'll be here. Om said standing beside him keeping a hand on her shoulder.

"And then I have a part Bhaiyaa. I got a sport bike from you last day so my friends wants a party. And who'll do it except Annika Di? Rudra said cutely looking at Annika.

Annika who was breaking from inside hearing Di from Rudy looked up and at him with a hopeful eyes.

"Om spoke to me last night. I'm sorry di. Please forgive me. He said in a low tone coming beside Annika in her ear which made her smile.

"Whatever. I'm leaving. Saying this Shivaay left saying "I'm taking your sports bike today Rudy. Mine will be delivered tomorrow. Giving another shock to the poor people standing there.

At the Pool Side:-

"who was that O? what happened to my bhaiyaa? Rudra started his drama.

"Shut up Rudy. Om said sternly.

"Why are you scolding him Om? He's right? Who was that guy Om? Not my Shivaay Om. My Shivaay never leaves his duty. Never behave like a reckless person. Who was he Om? I know it's all cause of me. He's too hurt and that's why he's doing all this to himself. She said breaking down.

"My Shivaay? I liked it Annika. Om said smiling. "He is definitely yours. Maybe a little late but you realized and that's enough. Now won't you give a minimum try to bring him back? Om said sitting beside her and Rudra joined too.

"But how O? Rudra asked confused and Annika looked at Om equally confused.

"You need to change a bit Annika. May be you'll be uncomfortable but you need to do this. For Shivaay. You know what crying, praying to God, or seeking forgiveness won't do anything. Just do what he's doing and it's done. Om said patting her back.

Where Annika was totally clueless Rudra started giving a mischievous smile.

"But how? Asked annika confused...

You know what guys. It's really disappointing to see this kind of response. just 1-2 likes and then no comments? Do I deserve this treatment? Is my update so bad that you can't say a good or not good or I didn't like or i like even? I put my heart and soul in it and this is the response...

I'm so hurt...

If not at list say that you don't want me to post here I won't

"Come with me Annika." Om said in a casual tone.

"But where?" Annika asked confused.

"Come" And they dragged him.

A confused Annika walked behind Om like an obedient child not having another option.

"So here is your dress for tonight Annika. Wear this and Shivaay if not at his kness at least won't stay away." Om said grinning ear to ear.

"Really? And what made you think so?" Annika asked in sarcastic way.

"As I'm a guy and a guy can bear anything but anyone else looking at his girl. And this dress is enough to ignite fire in him." He said in a confident smile.

"Really? Wait are You Rudra in Om's disguise or somehow Rudra's soul got transferred in you?" She asked in a sarcastic way gritting her teeth.

"Not at all Annika. It's me; the Omkara Singh Oberoi, but sometime being Rudra to some mess doesn't hurt." Om said but then...

" And there it's about you to get you promoted to our Bhabi from my di and O's best friend. And for that we can do anything from merging hell and heaven together and it's just get Bhaiyaa burn in jealousy and that doesn't harm." Rudra said grinning and cutting Om in between .

But how can I wear these these kind of clothes...

Look at this dress actually this sinful piece of cloth doesn't deserve to be called as a cloth. It has nothing to be called as sleeves and it's neck..." She paused a bit. How can she tell them that it'll leave her cleavage to all? "And then... Then this sl..slit... My whole leg will be exposed." She said pulling her dress which she was wearing already down as if wearing the dress already in a crying tone. And then... this heel. Oh God it's a table it self. I can't. Kill me but I WON'T." She finished clearly annoyed all huffing and puffing.

OmRu started laughing wholeheartedly seeing her like that cribbing not to wear that dress.

"Annika di don't worry you can manage. And you know killing you won't mak you our bhabi so that's out of race a long back. And the only option is to wear this for you. Either you wear or you loose bhaiyaa and let him destroy himself the way he's doing." He said blackmailing her emotionally which worked much to their expectation.

"OK I'll. But it'll effect him?" She asked confused.

"Look he went there to spoil himself don't know how but my assumption is in alcohol. And in a drunk condition it'll be easy to get trapped specially the girls like Ragini and Tanya.(In this story these to hayenas are present like this only. I mean just by names. The family knows how this too are obbessed with him. Ragini with him and Tanya with his status and power. Don't worry they won't make us bleed much.) But if you'll be there I gurantee he won't drink much. Intially may be but not long."

"And are you so sure about this Rudra?" Asked annika confused.

"Leave to us Annika." Om spoke assuring.

"But I never went to a place like this, ever." She said in a crying voice.

"Everything has it's first annika. And If Shivaay can come out of his NKK shell for you can't you do it as well? For him? For your love? For your Shivaay?" Asked Om placing his hand on her shoulder looking with lots of hope into her eyes. And that did the deed. It hit the bull's eye and She said an "Yes. I'll. Anything for Shivaay."

"Your Shivaay." Corrected Om smiling.

"Yes. My Shivaay." Saying that she went to change in Prinku's room not before squeezing OMRu in a bone crushing hug.

"God!!!! O, to convince Annika di is way more tough than Bhaiyaa. No wonder Bhaiyaa can't open his mouth in front of her." Rudra said pouting. "My daily work out is much easier that this herculine task." He cribbed.

When she came back to them their jaw dropped to the ground. Such a sheer perfection she was.

"God!!!! Why are you elder than me didi? If you were younger na trust me Bhaiyaa had no chance with you." Rudra said in a sad tone.

"Shut up Rudra. But seriously Annika you are looking hell gorgeous. He has to come back on his track seeing you like this. He won't even dare to loose you." Saying this OmRu escorted her to hall to meet Rahul, Om's college friend there who was a model by profession and true to his profession he was a greek god Annika had to admit. But not better than her Shivaay chided her inner goddess.

"So she's the girl Rahul. Just behave in a good way. Don't do over." Om said glaring.

"Hi Annika! I hope you'll be comfortable with me. You can think me as your brother." He said smiling genuinely. "Hope You won't mind if I hold your hand." He asked for her permission.

"Ye..Yes OK." Annika said fumbling.

"OK guys. Bye. And don't worry Om I'll do just the needed." Assured Rahul and took her away.

"Now it's time for the next move." said Rudra giving a mischievous grin and dialed Shivaay.

"Where are you bhaiyaa?" He asked in a fake worried tone.

"Why? What happened?" He asked in a little worried hearing Rudra worried.

"No actually, Choti ma.."

" What happened to mom Rudy?" He asked in a worried tone.

"Nothing Bhaiyaa. It's just you know na Rahul Bhaiyaa's mom asked Choti ma to search for a girl for him.." He said faking a worried confused voice.

"Toh? Why are saying all this to me?" He asked complete annoyed that why the hell he's saying all there shitt to him when he has lot more ready on his head.

"Actually today morning Rahul Bhaiyaa came here and... and.."

"What and Rudra? Say what you want and disconnect. I'm not in a mood." He said irritated.

"Actually he liked annika didi and now he left for hotel 'four seasons' with her to woo her." He said in a fake sad tone.

"And you know Annika di is a bit shy in these short of things so if you are there then please... You know what I.." But Shivaay disconnected the call even before Rudra could finish indicated there part was done successfully. Now the rest is on Annika's hand how to bring him on track.

Here an angry bird Shivaay threw away his phone in frustration hearing about Rannika (Rahul+Annika) that how can her mother think of her with someone else other than him and how can she accept it. He knew Annika can't ever say a no to his Mom or Dadi or Janvi like she does everytime he says something; but it was too much.

And he was drowned in this thoughts gritting his teeth when a heavenly looking Annika walked in hand in hand with that bloody hell of a guy Rahul. Though he was just like a brother for him As he was Om's friend but seeing him with his Annika; his love; he felt like ripping his heart and lungs from his body and at the same time the way annika was looking in that sin of a dress made him drool on her and he felt like take her away from there at that instant seeing all the male ogling at her as if she's the only beautiful girl on planet earth they laid their eyes on.

Hope you guys liked the update. Publishing 9th time.

I'm posting only cause of Sonam.. Who's my best friend on twitter. Otherwise I just have no energy. Please don't do this with me guys.

Seeing her there in that look he was just rooted at his spot. She was looking divine.

But then... Rahul

and his hand came to his notice. He was just holding her hand though but then too she was his, and how can he touch her??? He felt angry.

'No Shivaay. You are making the same mistake again. She wasn't yours and won't be yours. Ever. You are nothing but hurting yourself like this.' He chided himself in his mind.

'Ok but why is she with Rahul? She had a problem with me thinking I'm like those typical party boys and behaved with me like that and now she is roaming around with Rahul Malhotra the unannounced king of night clubs. Yuckkk!!!!!! Isn't she feeling those michmichis now?' He said making a cute cringing face.

"I won't stay here." He decided a bit loud though and started to move out of the hotel lounge towards his Room when something stuck his mind; and he stayed back.

"No. I won't leave. Why should I? She came here, hand in hand, now even..even laughing with that bas***d pig." He said to him ownself gritting his teeth; "Then why the hell should I leave? No I won't. I'll stay here only. Lets see what she do. Hmmmphhh." He said annoyed and started peeking at her direction secretly behind his crisp 'India Forbes' latest edition.

Annika who was looking at him only and seeing his moves started laughing to her heart's content seeing him like that till her stomach aches.

And she stood up.

"Where are you going Di?" Rahul asked her who was busy listening the live commentaries of his favorite Shivaay Bhaiyaa's reactions till now.

"Actually I need to teach some lesson to that beastly bagadbilla. I'll be right back Don't worry." She said smirking and left from back side avoiding the gaze of one certain bagad billa who was following him as if she was his favorite piece of fish.

Shivaay who was hiding behind that magazine was dumbfounded not finding her anywhere to be seen from the gap that the magazine was providing.

He broke out from his most important work of the year aka keeping an eye on Annika when he felt someone knocking on his magazine.

'Tap Tap'

"What the.." His words got stuck in his mouth only seeing her standing there in all her glory with a confident smirk on her face.

Her hourglass figure was so tempting that it took all his resolves to control him from pulling her onto his lap and kiss the hell out of her. But who's he kidding? He definitely doesn't have that right on her. And she made it clear. Otherwise he wouldn't be here today lieing his family members.

So masking his shock and desired knocked face with a emotionless expressionless face he asked her "What Happened?" In a gruff voice.

'Mr. Sadu Singh Oberoi' She muttered under his breath.

But soon controlling herself asked him "What are you doing here?" With a accusing look.

"What? Can't I be somewhere by my will?" He asked in an annoyed tone where he was thinking of just crushing her on that very couch he was sitting on and take her in for a never ending kiss then and there. But soon he composed himself.

"You certainly can. But I think you just can't ogle me the way you were doing it behind the magazine or right now." She said smirking with a oh-I-got-you look making her looking sexier even.

"I, I... I was re..reading the magazine Ms. Annika. I don't have an..any interest to ogle you." He said in a fumbling voice. Though he tried to confident but failed miserably thanx to their proximity and her beautiful perfume which was making him dizzy.

'Oh God. How cute he looks like this. I just feel like pulling his cheeks. My cute bheegi billu.' She thought smiling in mind and making a mental note of teasing him with this in later future.

"Oh Really. Then I must say you are pretty talented and an unique one too." She said faking amusement.

Being clueless of what she was saying he just stared at her face thinking what talent she discover now.

"You wonder what talent?" She asked looking at his confused on which he just nodded slightly affirmative.

"Actually I have never seen someone reading a magazine so contently from the reversed side like you so..." She said in a fake sad tone and turned the magazine the normal way smirking.. "It must be my fault no? Actually I'm used to seeing everyone reading there magazines like this only." She said smirking more intensely going a little closer to him "But sorry for the inconvenience caused by me. Happy reading." And she went away silent laughing towards their table where she was sitting with Rahul previously to tell him the incident.

"Shitt" He muttered half irritated half smiling on his stupidity understading what he did and what he got as a reflex.

He was irritated for the stupidity done by him where smiling seeing her so close to him.
