Tanu put the phone down and smiled to herself. She had decided that she was not going to waste any time waiting for her Abhi to come back to her. She was going to get rid of any thorn in her way and right now it was that bhenji Pragya. She had tried to be a good friend to Aliya and wanted to help her get her love back but when she didn't want her help she had decided that she was going to get her Abhi back at any cost because at this rate she was going to end up waiting for him for the rest of her life.

It was the New Year party and everyone was enjoying. First Abhi had announced the girl in his heart and he had said it was Daadi and then there was some other girl that was sticking to Abhi like glue but finally she had left especially after that glare Daadi gave Abhi. Since then however Abhi and Pragya had not stopped talking whether it was still their same old nokh jokh and every single person had commented on how great they looked as a couple while Tanu listened painfully with jealousy.

"Eyyy Chashmish" Abhi called to Pragya.

"You can shut up because my name is changing very soon." Pragya reminded him of the challenge.

"Oh confidence huh!" Abhi sniggered. "Trust me Chashmish you will fall flat on your face"

"We'll see. Anyway what were you calling me for?" She asked.

"Oh bulbul was calling for you go and see her. She's in our room." Abhi told her and she left for the room.

She entered the room and saw that Bulbul was in front of the mirror moaning to herself.

"Bulbul what happened why are you here?" Pragya asked walking
towards her.

"Di" Bulbul moaned. "Look na. The bottom of my saree got caught in Tanu's chair and it ripped straight across. I hate that brat so much. Urrghh!"

"Bulbul calm down don't worry, do you want me to go home and bring
another dress for you?" Pragya asked.

"Please Di!" Bulbul thanked her as Pragya left to go out.

She was walking down the stairs when Abhi asked her where she was going.

"I need to go and get something from Maas house." She said.

"Come I'll go with you." Abhi said.

Pragya touched his head to check he was okay.

"Fever bhi nahi hai then..." Pragya muttered to herself.

"What the hell are you doing?" Abhi said.

"Why do you want to go with me?" Pragya asked suspicious.

"Listen it's dark outside that's why." Abhi said.

"Nothing else? So you don't care about me?" Pragya asked.

"No of course not. You are not a kid are you?"

Tanu heard their conversation and cursed Abhi. Her plan was going so well then why was Abhi getting involved in this. She walked towards them and held onto Abhi's arm.

"Hey Abhi" said Tanu glaring at Pragya who started fidgeting uncomfortably.

Every time Pragya started to enjoy Abhis presence and felt that maybe she would have a chance of a future with him her hopes always crashed on top of her knowing it just wasn't meant to be. She put on a fake smile not wanting to ruin their night by being there. She was already feeling uneasy with the way Tanu was clinging on to him. There was a pang of jealousy deep within her heart wishing for a moment she was the one in that position.

"Don't worry. I will go by myself. It's not far anyway." Said Pragya leaving them without an answer.

"Chash..." Abhi called out but she left. He turned to moan at
Tanu but she grabbed him to the dance floor and ignored him.

Abhi was fed up with Tanu and the way she clung on to him all the time. It was as if she owned him. He couldn't talk to Chashmish without her giving him a glare but recently it just didn't bother him anymore. He didn't give a damn about what she thought about him and his Chashmish. He left her dancing in the crowd and sat down away from the noise. It had only been a few minutes since Chashmish had left but already he was feeling uneasy about her being out alone in the dark. He told himself to get a grip and watched everyone dancing as well as waiting for his Chashmish to come back.

Outside Pragya thought that it would have been better if Abhi had dropped her because she realised that all of the drivers were off for the new year and there were no taxis around either. It wouldn't take long for her to walk there so she set off. It was dark and no matter how much she knew nothing would happen she felt as if someone was following her but every time she turned around she saw no one there.

She arrived at her house and went in Bulbuls room. She picked a pink coloured saree with black bordering. She knew this was one of Bulbuls favourite and put it in a bag before leaving out. She was walking out and saw a man walking behind her. She didn't think much of it and carried on walking but just a little faster. She saw that the man too had hurried up. She got her phone and began to dial Abhi's number knowing the sound of his voice would comfort her. The man called her but she ignored him walking much quicker now.

She managed to call Abhi's phone number and Abhi picked it up but she felt an arm throw the phone away and the bag with Bulbuls dress fell from her hand on to the floor.

The man vigorously pinned her arm behind her and she tried to
struggle.

"Hello Chashmish?" Abhi called into the phone but instead
heard Pragya screaming.

"Leave me alone!" Pragya's muffled voice reached Abhi. The man
pulled Pragya's hair making it fall down on her shoulder in a mess and the flowers fell on the floor.

"Chashmish? What's happening? Where are you?" Abhi called into
the phone, worried now, but he got no answer.

"Stay still." Abhi heard a mans voice now.

"Who is this? Chashmish are you okay?" Abhi called but the phone call disconnected. Abhi rushed out of the house and got in the car. He again tried to call Pragya but no one picked up.

"Damn it" Abhi cursed himself for letting Pragya go out on her own and threw his phone onto the other seat in anger.

On the road the road Pragya was struggling to get out of the man's grip and slapped him when he tried to pull her dori. She turned to run but the man pushed her onto the floor knocking her glasses off of her face. She hit her head on the floor and scratched her arm ripping her sleeve and the glass scraped her across her cheek. She screamed out in pain but this time the man put his hand over her face and bent over her. She kicked her legs but nothing happened.

Abhi was driving the car looking out for Chashmish. He arrived at Sarlas house but Pragya was not there. He decided to walk and he saw red flowers on the floor. They were definitely Pragyas. Abhi hated the thought of what could be happening to Chashmish and pushed the thought aside. He looked around and heard a muffled scream and when he turned into the alley the sight shocked him.

The man was bent over Pragya and she was trying everything in her power to get him away from her but she failed. Anger spread within Abhi as he grabbed the man by his neck and pulled him back. He punched him across the face and he fell on the floor. Abhi kicked him in his stomach and lifted him by the collar.

"How dare you touch my wife?" Abhi screamed.

He slapped him across the face again but Pragyas quite cries stopped him and the man saw it as a chance to run away. As he left Abhi turned to see Pragya standing up. The sight of her made him feel guilty, he felt responsible for what had nearly happened to her.

Her glasses lay broken on the floor. Her hair was hanging down in a mess. Her eyes were red and there was a horrifying scratch bleeding on her cheek. Her sleeves were torn and her saree was covered in dust.

"He...I..." Pragya wasn't able to finish her sentence and fell forwards but Abhi caught her and picked her up and placed her back in the car before driving quickly back home.

It was 10 o clock so the party was still on. The sounds in the mansion stopped when they saw Abhi and Pragya at the door. The whole family rushed forward asking what had happened. Abhi didn't answer any questions and took Pragya straight to their room.

Downstairs Akaash made an announcement that the party was cancelled so the guests had left and everyone was in the hallway waiting for Abhi to come back down while Tanu fumed with anger. This was not what she had wanted she went away to the side and phoned the man while Purab followed.

The man told her that he was about to do what had been asked for but Abhi had arrived and saved the girl. He asked her when to collect the money.

"What money" Tanu screeched. "You didn't do what I asked. I wanted Pragya dead but she's not is she. Forget the money and don't phone me again."

Purab had already felt that Tanu was up to something because since the start of the party she had been behaving weirdly, and now the conversation he had heard cleared all of his doubts. He couldn't believe Tanu could stoop so low. He had recorded the conversation and was waiting for Abhi to come
downstairs so he could show him.

Upstairs in Abhi's room he had laid Pragya on the bed. He had wiped her sore wounds and put cream on them. He tied her hair back and had asked Bulbul to go and change her dirty ripped clothes. While Bulbul was doing that he came downstairs where everyone was waiting. Not wanting to shock them more he didn't describe exactly what had happened and had said that he arrived in time and Pragya was fine and would be better by morning. Sarla and her family had gone in to meet her and left after the Mehra family assured they would keep Pragya fine.

Once they had left Purab quietly went over to Abhi and showed him the video of Tanu speaking with the man. Abhi stormed over to Tanu and shouted at her while the family listened.

"What did Pragya ever do to you?" Abhi asked grabbing her by her shoulders.

"Abhi... I didn't do anyt..." He slapped her across her face so hard she fell to the floor.

"I know slapping a woman is wrong but after what you have done I have every right to do so."

Aliya stepped in shocked that even after warning her Tanu had done this. She told Abhi about her planning of Bulbuls accident and Purab agreed.

"Get out of my eye sight because even I don't know what I will end up doing if you come in front of me again." Abhi shouted at her.

"No Abhi Im sorry." She tried to plead but Abhi just grabbed her by her hand and threw her out of the house.

Abhi told everyone to go to sleep and they had all left as well as Purab. Abhi thanked him for showing him the truth of Tanu and hugged him bye. Aliya assured Abhi that Pragya would be better by tomorrow morning and left for her room.

Abhi walked back into his room and saw Pragya lying on the bed still pale. The scratch on her cheek was now less horrifying but the fragile state of her worried him. She was now wearing her white anarkali and hair was spread out on the bed. He lie next to her and put his arms around her and kissed her forehead and fell asleep just as the clock chimed 12. A start of a new year, a new beginning for Abhi and Pragya.

Part 2

Throughout the night Pragya felt as if the man was following her, she saw the events of what happened on the road again. He was following her, she tried to phone Abhi, he pushed her to the ground, her glasses were knocked off, she struggled but no one came to help, the man bent over her and forced himself...

Pragya jerked her eyes open breathing heavily screaming with shock.

"Leave me alone!" She screamed. "Let go of me! Help!"

Abhi got up with the sudden scream and tried to comfort her but she wasn't listening.

All she could see was a blurry image of a man telling her to be quite. She wacked her hands to get away from him.

"Leave me alone. Please. Let go." She shouted again.

Abhi saw that the incident had greatly affected her. He picked up her glasses and put them on her eyes.

"It me Abhi, Chashmish calm down. I'm here nothing will happen." He assured her.

As the image became clearer in front of Pragya she realised she was in her room safe and sound. Abhi breathed a sigh of relief as Pragya stopped whacking him in the chest.

He rubbed his chest, Chashmish may be delicate but God that girl could punch.

"I... I'm sorry, I just thought..." Pragya stuttered pulling herself together and bringing her knees up together still scared of what had nearly happened to her.

Abhi saw her hugging her knees and felt bad for what could have happened but was glad didn't happen. It shouldn't have happened but he couldn't change that. He didn't know who to thank that he had arrived on time and saved her.

"Who brought me here?" Pragya asked quizzically, pouting in deep thought.

"God Chashmish" Said Abhi, he thought that a way to get her mind off of the thought would be to distract her by his nonsense.

"I am a rockstar, who else would save you?" He told her.

"You're a rockstar not a superhero." Pragya reminded him rolling her eyes.

"At least I don't wear glasses." He teased her.

Pragya sorted her glasses on her face moving them sided to side just like she did when Abhi and Meetu had teased her at the party about her glasses. Abhi smiled at her cute expression, she truly was just like a little kid, completely naive, she didn't deserve what had happened to her. But now wasn't the time for him to remember the past. It was a new year, a new beginning for their relation. He had decided to fulfil his duty as a husband for once and for all. True love from her husband was what Pragya truly deserved.

"Listen Chashmish" Abhi started realising he had to sort out the misunderstandings between them by telling the truth to each other by what they truly wanted from this marriage.

"Chashmish, what did you always dream of getting from a marriage when you were young. I mean what was your dream?" Abhi asked her making her comfortable by placing pillows behind her and then snuggling behind the covers on her side, staring at her waiting for a response about what she truly wanted. He realised then that he had never asked her this question because of the circumstances in which their marriage had happen but in order to start afresh he needed to know about her shattered dreams that he needed to fix. It was the least he could do for her.

Pragya stared at the wall opposite for a few moments before speaking but still not taking her eyes off of the wall.

"You know." She began.

Abhi nodded listening to each word she spoke very carefully. Time stopped and all he heard was the pain in her voice as she carried on.

"I never asked for much. Since my dad left me and my family I learnt that life wasn't easy, I learnt that I was the eldest daughter and I had some responsibilities. Bulbul was young and always asked me as to what I wanted from marriage. She believed in fantasy stories but I only thought about the reality. Everyone always made it clear that I was not the pretty one when they saw Bulbul. She was the bubbly one that everyone wanted. I was never jealous though, I was happy for her. I never dreamed for much from marriage either but I believed in true love.

Maa began to look for boys for my marriage as soon as I became a lecturer and I had no problem because the one I thought would marry didn't have to be a prince just understanding because once there is a bond of trust and belief hearts meet by themselves. Bulbul always said that she liked superstars but I never thought much of them. I just wanted a small and peaceful house with my husband where he would understand me just by looking at me, where we didn't fight but loved each other. That was my only wish.

Maa fixed my marriage with this boy. The family seemed nice and I thought that would be okay but on the day of the marriage right before the rituals I guess my bad luck showered on me. He said that he much preferred my younger sister Bulbul and if he wanted the marriage to go forward then we would have to give him our marriage hall. My family's life depended on the kumkum bhagya marriage hall, how could I have agreed? So the marriage got cancelled, i announced that and left with Bulbul. My family tried to console me but I stayed strong for Maa and her health. I didn't care and they all expected me to cry but I never did. He didn't matter to me but Maa did."

Pragya was still staring at the wall and Abhi was eager to know more. Chashmish really had been through much more than he expected but the shock came with what she said next...

"And then what happened?" Abhi asked and Pragya continued.

"Well, Maa was still eager to get me married and I had no problem. That was when my marriage got fixed with Suresh."

"Suresh?!?" Abhi asked horrified. "What happened though?" Abhi asked jumping up and down on the bed.

"Well, I had no problem. He had always been a great friend to me and we were very similar. I was happy and even thought I had feelings for him but now I realise that wasn't love. He too right at the last moment refused to go ahead with the marriage."

"Why?" Abhi asked, glad in a way that he hadn't married his Chashmish otherwise he would have met her but curious to know the reason.

"He..." Pragya continued but wondered whether to tell Abhi.

"Tell me Chashmish." Abhi said.

"He loved my sister Bulbul." Said Pragya.

"What?!" Shrieked Abhi. "Oh my goodness" Abhi truly hadn't been expecting this. Chashmish had been shattered completely. Every person she loved hurt her in some form or another.

"I stopped believing in marriage, dreams and love after that. I was upset and Maa's health became worse. She wanted to see me happily married but all the marriage proposals hadn't worked. She kicked Suresh out and hated the sight of him."

Abhi was glad, that double battery deserved that.

"Anyway so why did you marry me?" Abhi asked.

Pragya looked at him now and then spoke.

"Well, your marriage proposal came and I refused straight away. I hated rich spoilt brats like you with egos too big to handle especially since I had knocked into you so many times. Imagining a marriage with you was the last thing on my mind."

"Eyyy Chashmish." Said Abhi annoyed. "How dare you? I am a rockstar, I have so many fans then who do you think you are."

Pragya rolled her eyes again.

"See what I mean? Anyway but after I refused Maa got angry and her health worsened so I just gave in and agreed. I thought if I tried maybe we could get along after all. Your family seemed nice and of course there was Daadi. What I didn't know then was that this was just a plan to punish me for a mistake I never committed?" Finished Pragya.

This words even pinched Abhi knowing he had wronged her the most.

"You know the night I found you in Tanus room any dreams I had left just broke. I felt..." Pragya wiped the tears that had formed in her eyes.

"I just went back home feeling humiliated and I guess just cried until I fell asleep and then you came in the next morning."

"Why didn't you tell me the truth then?" Asked Abhi remembering that dreadful night.

"For Maa. She was happy for me and my happiness was in hers and I didn't want you and Aliya to do anything to Bulbul. She had broken up with Purab anyway because she hadn't known he was engaged to Aliya. She was heartbroken and I was hopeless." Said Pragya

"And I started all of that." Abhi hated himself for ruining so many lives.

"No you did it all out of love for your sister. Anyway that's the past what's the point in remembering it. No matter how much you hurt me, after everything you did for my family I have no reason to hate you." Pragya said breathing a sigh of relief. She had felt the need for this conversation with Abhi for a long time. Now that any tension in between them had been cleared she felt relaxed.

"I may not have a chance of a future with you but I have all these memories that I will be able to treasure in my heart for as long as I live, I guess." Said Pragya.

Abhi realised that he hadn't told her about Tanu and decided to tell her in a happier way.

"Okay enough tragedy, I have a surprise for you." Said Abhi.

"What?" Asked Pragya.

"Well, I dumped Tanu." Said Abhi.

"Really!" Pragya squealed unable to hide her happiness and hugged him.

Abhi was shocked at her reaction but he was too lost in the moment and hugged back and that was when realisation hit him... He loved his Chashmish.

"Abhi" said Pragya breaking the hug and sitting back. "Well I realised something a while back."

"I did too." Said Abhi. "Just now in fact!"

"Let me tell you first." Said Pragya.

"No me." Said Abhi.

"Me!" Said Pragya.

"No... Chashmish, don't make me angry now." Abhi pointed his finger at her.

Pragya pushed him back and both said at the same time...

"I love you!"

They both laughed at their silly argument and Abhi pulled Pragya next to him gripping her waist gently while she snuggled into his neck.

"You at the best Chashmish." Whispered Abhi running his hand along her hair. "And I am so sorry for everything I ever did to you."

"No need." Said Pragya "I forgave you a long time back." She smiled up at him.

Abhi gently kissed the scratch on her cheek sending a shiver through her body. He lay his head on her chest and she caressed his hair and both fell asleep hugging each other. Finally, they had a whole new year to look forward to together...
