Kamini stepped in, latched onto Sahil's arm and started to drag him towards to door. Anika ran behind them, attempting to get Sahil out of Kamini's hold but in the process Anika mistakenly dashed Kamini causing her to fall but not before the older woman managed to push Sahil towards the door. *thummmp* and everything went silent, except for gasps of astonishment there was absolute silence. And then the flurry of Anika running towards her bhai was heard.
"Sahil get up, c'mon, up" Anika whispered crying, tears running down her cheeks. She picked Sahil up, dusted his arms and pants and helped him stable himself on his crutches.
She looked up and there stood the man she had been waiting for. The one she knew would put things rights. What was that look in his eyes? Anger? Shock? Whatever it was, it was blazing. Relief flooded through her veins and she knew everything was going to be ok. He knew her and he knew her brother. He'd make things right.
"What is happening here" His anger at what he had just seen evident in his voice. He stepped into the house and walked up to Anika and Sahil. He looked at Sahil and Sahil nodded his head in and 'I'm ok' gesture. And then he looked up and his heart clenched at seeing Anika's tear filled eyes, she looked scared, tired even. Giving her an almost not there nod, he looked at Kamini who was now standing with a gash on her forehead, her son holding her in support.
"Anika! Explain!" Words said with barely controlled patience. "Anika, I want an answer" He said again, voice raising abit.
"Shivaay, she sai-" Anika began explaining but another voice cut through her attempt. "What's there to explain Shivaay? Your wife has insulted me. She pushed me down, look I'm even bleeding now and you want an explanation?" Kamini s voice was loud, borderline shouting, and this didn't sit well with Shivaay, especially the way she had empathised on wife' as if taunting Anika.
Shivaay looked from a teary faced Anika to Sahil who was shaking his head in a fast no' and replied to Kamini "I'm not sure what happened Mrs Randawa, but Anika would never do something like that intentionally. Anika is very protective of her br-"
"We came here to arrange your sister's wedding Shivaay, not to get insulted! It would be better if you worry about Priyanka, rather than your wife. Ranveer told me about this wife of yours. About her past with you" Shivaay tensed, understanding what she was implying. Her tone and words bringing a feral look into his eyes, the rest of the family must have seen it too, because in the next second he felt Anika's subtle restraining hold on his arm. He looked at her from the corner of his eye and saw her small head shake.
Seeing that Shivaay was just standing there looking at his wife, Kamini said "Well as that is out of the way, w-" her words haltered as Shivaay held his hand up, silencing her.
He looked at Prinku and saw her crying, hiding her sobs behind her hand, his eyes then found Sahil who was now standing in Rudra's protective hold and lastly he looked at his red rim eyed wife who seemed to know what he was about to do because her hold had tightened and she was now frantically shaking her head but his glare stopped her from saying anything.
"Get. Out. Now"
To say the Oberoi's and Randawa's were shocked would be an understatement. There were gasps, oh my mata's and someone might have chuckled, but apart from that, they all had the similar look of being on the verge of a mini seizure. Collecting themselves, they heard Kamini say in a threatening voice "What did you say? Get out?...Ohh I will be leaving Shivaay, don't worry about me, what you should be worrying about is will you be able to find another suitor willing to marry your sister? Now that your family is dealing with a new scandal and falling stocks prices, will you find another suitor?"
Anika saw Shivaay's expression darken as he heard Kamini, and she knew that Kamini's words hit the bull's-eye... but his reaction wasn't what she had expected. He extracted himself from Anika's hold and stepped in front of Kamini and Ranveer. "Firstly, I don't like the tone you use when you speak about my wife. If you want to talk to her or about her then I suggest you use a respectful tone. Secondly, that little boy that you pushed down, Sahil? Yes he is physically challenged, but he is 10 times the person you will never be. You may be physically fine, but your mind, your mind seems to have a disability"
"Thirdly, you are forgetting that I am Shivaay Singh Oberoi and that girl there is not just Priyanka, she is Priyanka Singh Oberoi, and there are a 1000 proposals waiting for her regardless of media scandals or stocks. I will find her someone better than your son, a better family than yours. I only accepted your proposal because you are papa and bade papa's friend, but I had forgotten that even people with naam, khoon and khaandan are disgusting and deceiving. Lastly, it would be better if you leave this house on your own, but I really wouldn't mind getting security to escort you out"
His anger was so thick in the room that Anika felt suffocated by it. Her spine had gone stiff from the first word he said, and while she was happy that he had stood up for her, she knew that happiness only lasted a little while with her. Seeing that he staring at the Randawa's with a smile that was anything but friendly, she stepped in to defuse the tension but Kamini decided she wasn't done yet.
Speaking in a tone that clearly said she'd rather be strangling Shivaay than talking to him, she said "You think you are smart Mr Shivaay Singh Oberoi? And all this because of this sadakchap? You may be Shivaay Singh Oberoi but I am Kamini Randawa, mother of ACP Ranveer Randawa and I will not let those who have insulted me off so easily. As it is, your wife has injured me, caused me to bleed, you think I will spare her? I will have her arrested Mr Shivaay Singh Oberoi and then we'll see how you handle the new drama"
Shivaay had never hurt a woman, never raised a hand to them or even thought about it, but right now, he had all sorts of murderous thoughts going on in his mind, wanting to do nothing but launch himself at this infuriating woman and strangle her. Because threatening Anika was as good as threatening Shivaay Singh Oberoi himself and at this moment he saw how Anika had paled at the words of the older woman, saw how fear entered her eyes and he knew he'd be committing murder today.
Shoulders locked, hands fisted, he had been about to inform her about the consequences of threatening his family when he heard a voice ringing through the room
"Sir'Ji, I have something for you"
*****************
And just like that all heads turned to the big bear of a man, with curly brown locks who stood looking as ferocious as Shivaay. "I think this short movie will be of interest to you all" His anger was quite and this confused the Oberoi's who knew Khanna wasn't this cold. "Madam'Ji, you should also see this, after all you are the star of the show"
"Khanna! What's this nonsense?" Shivaay asked his most trusted man, who at the moment was making no sense and this frustrated Shivaay even more. He watched as Khanna walked forward and past Kamini and Ranveer giving them an icy stare before coming to stand in front of Shivaay. Wanting to question him some more, Shivaay had opened his mouth but Khanna thrust a disk into his hands. Unable to comprehend this change in Khanna's behaviour, Shivaay stayed holding the disk, staring at him.
Annoyed that Shivaay wasn't doing anything, Khanna took the disk out of his shell-shocked looking bosses hand and went to Rudra who he told to put it on and luckily the younger Oberoi didn't waste time, he immediately obeyed and put the disk on. "Pay attention please. Everyone" Again, quite anger. But it got the attention of the Oberoi's and Randawa's who had been too bewildered, at being spoken to in such a way by a measly security guard, to leave... but watching the video left them wishing that they had left earlier on.
Anika and Sahil hugging...Kamini stopping Anika and Sahil, saying that Sahil is bad luck and will make things inauspicious...Kamini and Anika's argument...Kamini calling Anika road trash...Kamini dragging Sahil while Anika tried to stop her...Anika slipping and dashing Kamini...Kamini pushing Sahil before she fell...Anika rushing to Sahil...Kamini looking around quickly then intentionally banging her head on the edge of the glass ta-
The video was paused and the remote flew into the wall next to the TV. Khanna turned to see a very composed Shivaay, but judging by all the heads that was looking at him stunned, Khanna could tell that it was indeed his boss who threw that remote.
Shivaay's anger flared after watching the full incident, eclipsing everything else. He had known that whatever happened between Anika and Mrs Randawa hadn't been initiated by Anika because she just wasn't built like that, and after seeing the video he knew his instincts had been right. As he continued to drill a hole into the screen that was paused on Kamini's face, he felt a chill spread out from his heart, he let it feed into his eyes, let it flow into his voice "You will dealt with Mrs Randawa, in due time. Now. Get. Out!"
He heard footsteps and only turned his attention away from the screen when he heard Priyanka's sob. Quick as lightening he was by his sisters side, holding her tight, running a hand over her hair in comfort, apologising softly "I'm sorry Prinku, I was wrong, I chose wrong. I was fooled once again by those of status and lineage. Forgive me". His anger long gone now that the danger was out of his house, but guilt took its place and it was a heavy unpleasant feeling.
"No bhaiya, you don't have to apologise. I'm glad that we got to see their true colours before it was too late. I don't want to be married into a family like that" She hugged him back tightly, thankful that she wasn't going to be stuck in a relationship that would make her unhappy. Pulling away from his embrace she told him she's going to change and she'll be back. He let her go, knowing she needed to be alone for some time.
Eyes searching for the other person who he knew needed comfort, he walked over to Sahil, crouched on his haunches and hugged the little boy tight. "I'm sorry Sahil. Once again, I couldn't save you. I couldn't keep my promise. I failed you and your didi". He didn't know how else to let Sahil know that he was sorry for the trauma the boy had to face again. His family attracted trouble and now that Sahil was part of his family, trouble seemed to want the boy.
"Arre Billuji, you didn't fail anyone, infact I'm so glad that my didi has you to protect her now. You protected us both today, you may not have been able to save me from falling, but you made sure the reason I fell would never be able to drop me again" Sahil told Shivaay, and from the look of warmth in Shivaay's eyes, Sahil knew that his didi's baggad billa had caught the figurative meaning in those words. "I'm going to go unpack, but I'll see you later, I have some math problems I want your help with"
Nodding at Sahil, Shivaay ruffled the little geniuses hair and watched as he exited the hall with Rudra carrying his bags, the two of them already arguing about who would get to pick the movie they were planning to watch. The rest of the family had scattered, all muttering that the drama in the mansion was getting too much and that they weren't young enough for this. Leaving only Khanna, Anika and Shivaay in the room. Anika felt Shivaay step closer to her, saw him look at her with pleading, guilty eyes and she knew he was blaming himself for whatever had happened. She brushed her hand against his, a silent gesture of comfort and let out a small gasp when he intertwined his fingers with hers, but she let him hold her hand, knowing he'd need the comfort after the whole incident.
Sighing happily when she shifted closer to him, he thought about how lucky he was to have her with him. She was the one who had been insulted yet here she was offering him comfort, making sure he didn't beat himself up too much. Mentally noting that he should apologise properly to her later, he asked Khanna the question that was bothering him since the man had stepping in. "Khanna, how did you know about what was happening? And how did you get here in time?"
Khanna's eyes grew flint hard as he answered Shivaay "After the K.K's...uhm I mean Kapoor's..After the Kapoor's phailao'd raita right under my nose, I have made it my duty to never leave the CCTV feeds unattended. I saw watched the whole fiasco live and I was going show you the footage later on, but when Mrs Randawa started spitting fire about arresting Anika Madam, I knew I had to bring the footage right away" His 'K.K' got a laugh out of Anika, but she shut up when Shivaay shot her a warning look. "I won't ever let anyone harm Anika Madam. No One!"
And with those last words Shivaay knew that Khanna would protect Anika no matter who or what tried to harm her, even if it meant Khanna standing against his boss. Oddly enough though, Shivaay didn't feel angry at the implied words, he actually felt relieved to know that aside from him and his brothers, Anika had someone else to care for her. He tightened his hold on her hand, giving her her fingers a light squeeze and saw that her eyes had gotten watery, but he wasn't alarmed, because he knew that she was just feeling overwhelmed by the love and protectiveness Khanna just displayed for her.
"Khanna, if only you had manned those camera feeds months ago...You would have saved me from all the trouble those K.K's caused" Shivaay watched as Anika and Khanna shared a look of shock, turned to look at him, look at each other again and then they laughed. A laugh that caused Shivaay to join in, all the while keeping her fingers laced with his.
Anika controlled her laughter, long enough to say "Thank God for Khanna and his videos"
