Jaise Ishani madam karti hai na mera vansh bhai...and all🤪🤪 but in the end its upto you how you frame the story

Oh like that I understand let me see what I can do😊 Waise whatever characters will be introduced from her side will have this agenda only to insult Rai Singhanias😆

Chapter 1

Ladies and gentlemen let me introduce to you my wife Mrs Vansh Rai Singhania.

Ladies and gentlemen, please give a huge round of applause for Mrs Ahana Vansh Rai Singhania.

I always wanted my bhabhi’s standards to match with my Bhai. I am so proud of you bhabhi. Finally, my wish had been granted.

Mam, what nonsense? I don’t even know you.

I think this girl has lost her memories and she had come to this house.

She looks mentally ill.

Who are you beta? I am meeting you for the first time today.

Vansh, please call the doctor.

This girl is lying, she is nothing to us.

The name and identity you are searching for never belonged to you.

Coming to someone’s house does not mean you can stay there. This house does not belong to you. You can't stay here. You have to leave.

I’ll show her, her rightful place and saying so Ishani snatched away her mangalsutra from her and threw it away, and dragged her pushing her, in the ground threw Riddhima out of the house.

The voices echoed in her head, taunting her, belittling her, mocking her. Unaware of her surroundings she kept walking on the dark and lonely streets at the night.

“Why? Why, Vansh?”

She said crying and breaking apart.

“Why me? What was my fault?”

She asked not knowing to whom, was it to herself, to her fate, to Vansh or was it to the one sitting up there?

“Bappa you know I might have made numerous mistakes but had never intended to hurt anyone not knowingly at least. So why I am here in this state?”

She said looking up in the sky while tears flowed down her eyes, eyes which held pain and unanswered questions.

******

One day the truth will come out that I guarantee you and that day you will realize, regret and come to me for me, asking for my forgiveness wanting me but would that be given? That I can’t guarantee. One day every single one of you will regret everything you all have ever done with me that I promise.

The words echoed in his ears, the dead tone of her voice he still remembered. He dribbled the basketball more ferociously. He remembered her eyes, the tears in them that were flowing down her face. Her cries when she asked him to tell the truth. He remembered her, the way she ran to save the memoirs of their relation, of her when Ishani and Ahana burnt it while he gave his approval by staying quite. This is what he wanted, he wanted to break her and he did break her. Then why does it feel like he made a mistake he’ll regret as if he lost something precious, something invaluable and what the hell is this sensation he is feeling in his chest. Vansh thought while rubbing his chest.

“Riddhima….. Riddhima…..”

He heard the voice he had been longing to hear for a while now but wasn't sure when or if would be possible. If he heard right or was it his imagination?

“Riddhima…. Riddhima…”

The voice came again and he rushed to Sia’s room reaching there he saw the entire family was already present there. He sat beside Sia on her bed

“Sia? Sia…”

He called for his sister; slowly Sia opened her eyes and started looking around searching for someone. Looking at her Vansh asked her

“Sia, who are you looking for?”

“Bhaiya, where is Riddhima bhabhi? I want to meet her. I want to talk to her. Please call her. Where is she?”

Sia answered him with her own questions making everyone shocked at her while her eyes were still searching for her beloved bhabhi.

“Sia, she had gone forever from here for good. Why do you want to see her? She betrayed Bhai. Ragini died because of her. You are in this condition because of her.”

Ishani said irked at the mention of the woman to whom she hated with all her might. She hated her enough to cross limits just to get that woman out of their life for good; and now that finally, that had happened now at no cost she wants Riddhima back in this house in their life.

“No no no bhai that’s not true bhabhi is innocent. I am in this condition because of Anupriya and bhabhi did not betray bhai. She did not kidnap Ragini rather she was trying to save her. Hence she took Ragini.”

Sia said hearing Ishani looking at her first then everyone around then turning towards her brother who was holding her she continued saying

“Bhai, bhabhi loves you a lot in fact no one can love you more than her. Don’t lose her bhai to only regret the rest of your life. Stop her, if you can.”

With each word, Sia uttered Vansh’s heart kept drowning and dread kept seeping in. The fact and realization that he might have lost the one woman; whom he truly loved because of his ego, misunderstanding and lack of trust of which Kabir took advantage. He manipulated him and like a fool Vansh believed the pieces of evidence shown to him by Kabir rather than his wife.

While Sia kept narrating everyone about actual events of the incidents and telling about Riddhima being innocent and how she was framed by Anupriya Rai Singhania there was one person who was observing everything standing on the sides. Though he wasn’t happy with the turn of events which took place with Sia waking up; but one look at Vansh he started having the second thoughts could Riddhima’s innocence proven at this point when she had left could do any good to him. The agonizing pain forming in Vansh's eyes and on his face with each realization seeping in gave Kabir immense satisfaction. Pulling out his mobile from his pocket he dialled a number. After few rings the person on the other end picked the call up and Kabir updated him with the happenings of the evening from the press conference to Riddhima’s humiliation and being kicked out and Sia waking up and informing everyone about Riddhima’s innocence.

“Sir Ji, this Vansh what a player he turned out. I am feeling sorry for Riddhima.”

Mishra said with disbelief in his voice. He knew Vansh doesn’t leave anyone who betrays him but this was brutal, and here Riddhima didn’t even betray him not knowingly or intentionally rather she herself was a more of a victim here than a culprit Mishra thought.

“Mishra follow Riddhima and find out where she is. After today things are going to change. I don’t know what or how but I can feel it.”

Kabir said instructing Mishra bringing him back from his thoughts.

“Yes, sir”

Mishra said with a determined face and an unfathomable look in his eyes.

********

A taxi stopped and she stepped out; and started walking when the taxi driver called her out asking for his fair. Stopping in her track she looked at him, the man again asked for his fair, Riddhima saw a ring on her finger that was gifted by Vansh to her, taking it out she gave it to him and walked away.Not heading to his calls or bothering to reply.

She kept walking and without realizing about her surroundings she reached to the centre of the bridge and fell down with a thud, with her back resting on the sides of the bridge she sat there. She did not know for how long she had been sitting there like that unaware of her surroundings, the world around her blurred and disappeared when she heard a voice.

“Why you did this with me? I loved you more than anything more than myself. I lost myself for you. I always kept you and your wellbeing, your desire and your wishes before mine than why? I left everything for you, my house, my name, my identity, and family who were against you. They warned me yet I went against them for you. ”

A woman’s voice reached Riddhima’s ears for some reason the words left from the woman’s mouth felt relatable as if it was her standing there telling her tale though it wasn’t catching Riddhima’s attention towards her. The woman was holding the man’s hand.

“It was your choice. I never asked you to do so. It was your fault that you never loved yourself enough. It was your fault you loved me more I never asked you to. And, honestly I feel suffocated.”

said the man who was standing there with the woman nonchalantly while shrugging the woman’s hand off himself making the lady take a step back stumbling a bit from the jerk.

“I trusted you, for your sake I kept taking everything your family threw at me. I lost myself because I kept running after you. I became so desperate for your affections that I forgot who I am, what I am, and my identity, me… all for you. You are right it’s my entire fault.”

The woman said to the man whispering the last bit to herself breaking apart slowly as the realization of her situation dawned in her.

It was strange so very strange to see the couple who are on the verge of being separated or rather the man was about to abandon the lady who gave her everything to him. A woman who gave herself to him trusting him to take care of her followed him blindly. Yet, somehow he was right cruel but right. Wasn’t that the case with her she trusted blindly be it Vansh or Kabir and both took undue advantage of her feelings. It was her choice that she crossed limits and boundaries she shouldn’t have; for them without giving a second thought about herself. Vansh’s family they kept doing whatever the hell they felt like harming her, tormenting her be it emotionally, mentally or physically. She gave them power over herself and they destroyed her. No she herself was responsible for it she became something unrecognizable. Someone so foreign that now if she looks back she can’t see her old self ever letting anyone treat herself like that. Yet, every time they wronged her she stayed quiet and it encouraged them as if they were entitled to hurt her, as if it was their right, they kept repeating it without any fear and regret. Each time their wrongs and crimes became drastic than the previous one, then the before. Who the hell had she become? When did she change so much? How did she become so desperate for love that she practically started begging for it just not in words but in actions? Otherwise how come she agreed to go near Vansh when Kabir asked her to? Why did she not slap him then and there asking him to bug off? Why did she not run away when Vansh forced her to marry him? After marriage when his family ill-treated her why did not she opened her mouth and answered them back? Then with all the mind games, Vansh played with her how come she forgave him forgetting everything? She never questioned him and in return this is what he did and here she is now. Lost

“Well, great now that we are clear goodbye then.”

saying so he left from there leaving the woman behind falling on her knees and crying bitterly bringing Riddhima out of her thoughts.

*******

It had been hours since Vansh had been roaming on the roads of Mumbai at these odd hours of the night. Driving and looking through each nook and corner of the places where she could have gone to. The people there weren’t many she could have gone to or to be honest, he wasn’t aware of them. He knew about Sejal but she had been missing for a while. God knows where the girl is though he had never met her before, though at this moment he wished he would have bothered and got little more involved in his wife’s life.

The moment Sia told the truth to the whole family. Everything he ever said or done with her started coming back to him images playing in front of his eyes, voices echoing in his ears and memories were flowing in his head. He regretted every single thing, a feeling so intense and along with him, there was another person who was shedding the tears of regret was his dadi. Soon after Sia told everything to the family he rushed out of the house in search of his wife.

********

“What do I do?”

The woman cried questioning herself while tears keep flowing from her eyes. Riddhima stared at her unblinking with no emotions in her eyes for a moment. Then looking ahead she rested her head on the sides of the bridge, she tilted her head a bit and looked up in the night sky. The woman kept repeating to herself.

“What do I do?”

“We remember who we are and stop running away from ourselves. We became someone else for someone so unworthy. Now we, accept who we are for ourselves, good, bad or whatever If we can’t then it’s better to finish off this pathetic self.”

Riddhima said to no one in particular while still staring up but her words were audible enough for the woman and saying so she stood up like a zombie making the woman alert. Then climbed on the railing and jumped off.

“Riddhimaaaa”

“Nooooo”

“Riddhimaaaa”

Three voices echoed two of men and one of a woman simultaneously at a different distance calling for her.

*******

It had been 3 hours from the time she left. She could be anywhere at this moment but still hoping for the best he kept searching for her. He told Angre to ask his men to search for Riddhima but till now there had not been any call from him or any news about Riddhima. He kept driving and reached to Rajiv Gandhi Sea Link. Stopping his car he came out of his car shutting its door. Rubbing his face he looked up and then turning around he looked everywhere as if searching for someone. He did not know what he was doing here he should be on his way searching for Riddhima. Just then his phone rang, picking it up he said

“Yes, Angre I am at Rajiv Gandhi Sea Link any news? Where are you?”

“Bhai I am near I am coming towards you will reach there in five minutes and about Riddhima bhabhi we got her ring which you gave her from a taxi driver. He said he dropped bhabhi there. Hence, I was coming there bhabhi must be there somewhere. You look around there I am just reaching there.”

Angre replied making Vansh go alert on the other end

“All right let me know if anything more and come soon.”

Vansh said and disconnected the call. Turning around he started looking everywhere for any sign of the woman

Why the hell did Riddhima come here of all places?

Thinking so he was about to go back in his car when his eyes caught a sight making his heart skip a few beats and thudding in fear. A fear, like never before clutched his heart. There Riddhima was standing on the side railings of the bridge and before he could do something she jumped off it.

“Riddhimaaaa”

He shouted and ran towards her. Reaching to her he stretched his hands to grab her only for her scarf to be left in his hands while she slipped away not just from his hands but also from him, and his life; and all he can do was just watch her falling down. He called her again and started climbing up to the sides ready to jump after her only to be pulled away by someone he did not know who it was. He did not know what was happening around him. He could hear some voices in the background but did not know to whom they belonged to. He struggled and shrugging off whoever the person was tried to go once again after Riddhima ready to jump while screaming her name at the top of his voice only to be pulled back again with more force.

“She’ll die. Let me goooo.”

Vansh shouted struggling to free himself from the strong holds while his eyes were stuck to the place from where Riddhima jumped off the bridge. Tears started flowing without even him realizing it and wait was he crying? He did not know all he knew was his woman just jumped off the bridge and he was to be blamed.

“Riddhimaaaa”

He screamed her out loud in the dark silence of the night.

*******

He watched the man in front of him crumbling to his knees. A forbidding force that he was with a larger than life aura surrounding him was missing at this moment and the only thing that was left behind was a somewhat broken man screaming and crying for his wife making Mishra feel sorry for him but what’s the point now? Mishra saw the moment when Riddhima jumped off the bridge and screamed calling for her, he also saw how Vansh Rai Singhania ran towards his wife to save her only to have left with her scarf and how he tried to jump after her to save her had not it been for Mishra to hold the man from behind to stop him. Strangely it felt a deja vu moment to him wasn’t it a few days ago when Vansh Rai Singhania jumped off a cliff and his wife was the one who ran to save him and tried to jump after him? Though situations were drastically different; but the scene was very much similar.

In this war between Vansh and Kabir, it was Riddhima who had paid the price. Unknowingly or knowingly they all have played a part in that innocent woman’s destruction. Looking aside he saw Angre who had arrived with his men a few moments after Riddhima jumping off the bridge and when he was struggling with keeping Vansh from going after her for the second time. It was with the joint effort with Angre and his men were Mishra able to stop Vansh following his wife down the bridge. He saw how his men started searching for her down with the boats present there. By now even the officials were here and the search party had begun. Taking his phone out, he had dialled Kabir sir’s number and informed him of the happenings. Not wanting to hear him Mishra disconnected the call after finishing the formality as his junior and stared down to where Riddhima fell.

Would she survive or? After falling from here chances are in negative but still there were boats down there someone might have seen her and saved her but then why isn’t there any news? Something should have come by now.

These were the thoughts and questions running in the three men present there who had known the woman and had played role in making her reach this point.
