CHAPTER:3
Abhi know he has to let out the pain of betrayal he was feeling from this evening and he also know if someone can understand his pain its none other than pragya so he took a deep breath and started to tell what happened in Tanu's apartment this evening.
******************
Abhi who dropped Aaliya just drove his car without any destination lost in his thoughts.After seeing the bond between purab and pragya in the college he felt disgusted with himself thinking how he insulted their pure bond by called it by names.He didn't know with whom to share his pain and guilt for hurting an innocent girl like pragya and destroying her whole life.Before he had his best friend purab to share everything ,but now he lost that same best friend coz of his own stupidity.He felt like the worst friend for not understanding purab's feeling and didn't support him when purab needed him the most.Abhi stopped the car with a sudden break and placed his head on the steering wheel and let the tears he was holding back from the moment he left the college.Abhi felt like he failed everyone and for the first time in his life he felt completely helpless.Abhi felt like he couldn't breath from the guilt he was feeling now.After few minutes of thinking Abhi decided to go to Tanu's house .He know its not right to go to Tanu's house now ,but he didn't really know where to go.He felt like this pain from guilt will kill him if he didn't share with someone .so he turned the car and drove to Tannu's apartment.
Once Abhi came and stood infront of ther apartment door he was about to press the calling bell,but he stopped at the last minute coz he didn't want to disturb her if she was sleeping.so he took the spare from the hiding place and opened the door entering the apartment silently.Once Abhi reached her bedroom,he saw the bedroom door was opened and was about to walk inside the room but the converstion she was having stooped him in his tracks.
''But Tanu how are you sure that you can get all the properties of Abhi without him knowing?''spoke a male voice from Tanu's phone which was in loud speaker while she was painting her nail .
''Its simple Raju.Once Aaliya and purab's wedding is over Abhi will surely divorce that behanji and i will mix the property papers with the divorce papers and will make sure he will sign it.He will never doubt me Raju afterall all these years he is thinking that i am in love with him when i was just with him for the money and fame.''said Tanu with a smile and Abhi felt like someone punched him in the guts.
''But Tanu why don't you first marry and get the sign in the papers and then you can divorce him if you want.Its has less risk''said Raju.
''Are you out of your mind Raju?If i wanted to you this idea i would have said yes to his proposal when he wanted to marry for his Daadi.I can never take care of his house or family Raj and especially his daadi.Thank god that Behanji became the scape goat in all this.Just few days of this acting of i am so in love with Abhi ,then when i get what i want i will leave this country and start my own fashion house in France''said Tanu with a smile.
''Whatever Tanu .Be careful and make sure you will not caught''said Raj.
''I will .so when is my next fashion show ?''asked Tanu and continued to talk with Raj while Abhi stood there not able to believe how much fool he was in his life.Abhi silently the apartment as he didn't have the strength to fight with her .As Abhi came near his car in the parking he sat down on the ground resting his back on the car.Abhi just sat there feeling numb feeling how Tanu just used him when he really cared for her.She just didn't betray his trust but Aaliya's too.He never thought out of all person Tanu will do this to him. But what confused him the most was that he didn't so much pain he expected to learing her betrayal.Even a small part of his heart was glad at this knowing he can consider his growing feeling for pragya.Abhi slowly got up from the ground and decided to think about the rest in the house.
**********************
PRESENT:
Pragya just sat there in shock after learing what Tanu did to Abhi and she didn't even know how to console him as she can't imagine what he must be going through.She always know Tanu is the right girl for Abhi coz Tanu was selfish s,lef-centred ,buut pragya never thought Tanu will do something to Abhi like this.
''I never thought the girl who i loved will betray me like this pragya.After my parents left me i was really lost and never allow anyone to get close to me apart from my family except Tanu and purab.I though they can understand me and will love me as Abhi not the rockstar Abhi.But Tanu proved me that i can't be loved like others pragya.Even i lost purab and i am the only one to be blamed for that.But how can i except anyone to love me when i hurted a loveable person like you pragya.I think i really deserve this for destroying your life''said Abhi in a defeated voice .
Pragya who couldn't handle his pain anymore just pulled him to her chest and Abhi too hugged her back as his life depending on it.Pragya just ran her fingering through his hand while Abhi started to sob in her arms.
''Let it out Abhishekh.Let all your pains out and cry as much as you want.I will be here to hold you till you want''said pragya in a soft voice and finally the pain,guilt,betrayal Abhi was holding for the past several hours came out as he started to sob loudly while pragya continued to rub his back slowly hold him more tightly in her arms.
*******************
The next morning Aaliya was the first to wake up and entered the bathroom to get ready.Once Aaliya stood under the shower she felt the tension in her body from the last day leaving as the hot water hit her nerves.Aaliya didn't know how she is going to apologize to Bulbul and then to purab but after everything happened she know its necessary.After last night conversation with Bulbul Aaliya was glad that Bulbul agreed to meet her today.Aaliya then left the washroom after 30 minutes to get ready to meet Bulbul.Once Aaliya got ready she walked towards Abhi's room to get check on her bhai.Though she know her bhabhi will take a great care of him,she just want to make sure he is alright.As Aaliya carefully opened Abhi's door without any noise and entered the room.But what Aaliya saw there bought a bright smile on her face.Abhi was sleeping like small child placing his head on pragya's lap and hugging her waist while pragya was sleeping resting her back on the bed rest placing on of her on Abhi neck while another was hold his hand which Abhi was holding to his chest.Aaliya felt like fool for not understanding how they are made for each other and trying to separate them.She then left the room without disturbing the couple to meet Bulbul.
****************
Bulbul was sitting in the coffee shop where Aaliya asked to meet her last night.Bulbul was really suprised to hear the requesting tone Aaliya talked with her and how she even agreed to meet where bulbul was comforable.Even though Bulbul didn't want to meet her something in Aaliya's voice made her say yes.Just then she saw Aaliya entering the shop and walked towards her table once she saw Bulbul.
''Hi Bulbul.Thanks for coming''said Aaliya with a smile which Bulbul retured.
''Its ok Aaliya.Lets order something,i was waiting for you''said Bulbul and she nodded.After 10 minutes Aaliya was sipping her coffee while Bulbul was sipping her coffee milkshake .
''So Aaliya what you want to talk about?''asked Bulbul.
''Well i here to talk about you and Purab''said Aaliya and Bulbul looked her in shock.
''What?''asked Bulbul in shock.
''Bulbul i know everything about you and purab.You don't know how much i was hurt and feeling guilty when i came to know the truth and for hurting Bhabhi.I know i did a big mistake Bulbul but now i want to make up for that.I can even face myslef in the mirror remembering how i hurted bhabhi.I know you hate me for what i did Bulbul ,but please forgive me.I really want you and purab to get together again.I will do everything in my power to gain everyones forgiveness and i want to get you and purab together at first''said Aaliya and Bulbul didn't even know what to say.Bulbul didn't know how Aaliya came to know about the truth but she was glad that finally the truth is revealed so that her di can atleast live in peace without getting hurt.
''Aaliya i really didn't know what to say.Its true that i hated you but not for coming between me and purab but for hurting my di for something she didn't do and didn't deserve.Though you may be the reason me and purab got separated but i can't blame you completely coz purab is the one keep me in dark about you both and i never hold you responsible for it.so there is no need to ask for my forgiveness .Its my di's forgiveness you have to gain coz she is the one who got hurt most by you and Jiju.If my di is happy there from now that's enough for me Aaliya''said Bulbul with a smile and Aaliya was really suprised to see how the sisters love each other to the core.
''Thanks Bulbul.I promise you that bhabhi will be happy from now on.I never realised her true nature before ,but now after knowing how loveable she is i will never let anyone hurt her''said Aaliya with a smile.
''Thanks Aaliya .''said Bulbul with a smile .Just then her mobile rang and she smiled seeing it was purvi calling her.
''Hi purvi''said Bulbul .
''Hi Bulbul. I immediately want to go for shopping for my friends party tomorrow nights.so will you come and help me to select the dress?''asked purvi and Bulbul smiled.
''Sure purvi.I will meet you in the shopping mall parking in 30 minutes if you are ok''said Bulbul looking her watch .
''Thank you Bulbul you are a life saver i will be there in 30 minutes.see you there bye''said Puravi.
''Bye purvi''said Bulbul disconnecting the call.Then she looked at Aaliya who got up from the chair.
''Ok Bulbul i will leave you now .I think you have some plan with purvi.Will see you later''said Aaliya with a smile.
''Aaliya why don't you join me and purvi for shopping if you don't have any plans?''asked Bulbul with a soft smile.Aaliya was really taken back by this but smiled .
''Sure Bulbul i will join you''said Aaliya with a smile and they left the coffee show knowing it was a start of a new friendship.
*********************
Here in Mehra's mansion pragya was the first to wake up from her sleep and looked at her husband who was sleeping like a small child without any worry.she softly caressed his forehead and moved his head to the pillow slowly removing his hands from her waist.Then she properly covered him with a blanket and left to get ready after checking his temperarure.After 15 minutes pragya cam back and left the room to prepare breakfast for them,once she entered the kitchen pragya noticed a sticky note on the fridge and she took it with confusion.
Bhabhi,
I went to meet my friend and will return home only by noon.So prepare breakfast only for you and bhai.
Aaliya.
Pragya smiled a little reading the note and started to prepare the breakfast.

Abhi woke up with a headache in his bed and looked around the room for his wife but she was nowhere to be found.He remembered how she consoled him last night like a mother when her child was hurt.Abhi didn't know what he did to deserve a wife like pragya and her care when he behaved liked a monster with her.He didn't know what he should name this newfound and growing feelings for pragya,but whatever it is he is going to give it a chance if pragya agrees.Abhi for the first time in his life left like belong last night when he slept in her lap and cried in her arms letting his pain and hurt.Just then Pragya entered the room carrying his food and smiled seeing him.

''Good morning chasmish.Well you know how i will be feeling ,like a rockstar''said Abhi with his cheesy voice trying to making the situation normal.Even pragya smiled seeing him trying to be normal.
''Whatever Abhishekh .Go and fresh up you must have your food and medicines.''said Pragya with a smile and Abhi got up from the bed but as he stood up he lost his balance co he was still weak and pragya rushed towards him and helped him to stand properly.
''Aaram se Abhishekh''said pragya with concern.
