"what the hell?! Arjun threw the paper on the table, making every ETF member turn their head towards him.
"she... she cant do this..."
"Arjun whats wrong?! Kya hai usme aur who cant do what?" ACP Sameer Rathod asked in confusion.
"Payal. She is getting married. Read this.."
Arjun passed the paper to sameer and ran hand through his hair.
"Arjun..."
"I need to go. I need to stop her. He is not the right guy for her..."
Without listening to anyone, Arjun rushed out of ETF.
~~~
Arjun ran towards his sister's room ignoring words from his father.
He saw his sister sitting all decked up in bridal finery, looking at her henna adored hands.
"Payal..." he called her, signaling others to leave them alone.
"bhaiyya..."
Payal went to him and hugged him tight.
"I thought you would never come..." a tear escaped her eye.
"aapko hi mera kanyadaan karna hai bhaiyya..."
Her words were cut when her pulled him away from her.
"kyon kar rahi ho ye Payal?"
"kya bhaiyya?"
"ye shaadi. Tumne kaha tha ki you will let me choose a suitable boy for you. Oopar se you did not even tell me. I had to find out this through some paper." His voice raised a notch higher.
Bhaiyya wo... main aapko batane waali thi..."
"kab tumhare aur uske 2 bacche hone ke baad?!"
She flinched at his tone.
"bhai I love him... I want to spend my life..."
"spend your life with a bloody murderer right!!!!"
"bhai you are mistaken. He is not..."
"I know that I am right Payal. He is the one who is suspected to the the alleged sikander who killed YOUR BHABHI... i don't have enough proofs to put him behind bars warna..."
Payal wiped her tears and shouted at Arjun.
"ENOUGH BHAI... BOHUT HOGAYA. Pranav se main pyaar karti hun aur uske khilaaf kuch nahin sunungi. Bhabhi ke maut aapki wajah se hui hai naaki ki Pranav ne unhe maara. Aap bhabhi ke kaatil ho naaki Pranav. Wo bhi mujhse utna hi pyaar karta hai jitna main usse karti hun. Aur hume koi juda nahin kar sakta. Aap bhi nahin. Samjhe aap?"
Her face was completely red after her outburst at Arjun. He stood completely still, letting each word to absorb in his mind. He could not believe that his little sister said those words.
"tumhi wo thi Payal jisne kaha tha ki chahe koi bhi ho jisne roshni ko maara, hum milke saza denge. Aur aaj tumhi..."
"Pranav is my life"
"he is a murderer"
"he is not. Please get out..."
"Payal... listen to me baccha... its about your lif...""
"I said GET OUT mr. Arjun Raute."
Arjun stood numb. Her eyes held fury in them, desperation. Roshni's body drenched in her own blood flashed in his mind. Anger gripped his whole being and his voice turned to steel.
"aaj se mera aur tumhara, koi rishta nahin hai Payal. You are dead to me. Meri pyaari behan Payal aaj mere liye mar chuki hai..."
Arjun spun on his heels and marched out of the room completely ignoring grim expression on his dad's face.
~~~
Payal sat next to Pranav in mandap... he held her hand asked.
"are you ok? I heard your brother came..."
"yeah..."
"he hates me. Don't he?"
"he has just misunderstood you Pranav... and nothing matters more than you to me...
Not even him..." she closed her eyes as tears threatened to fall.
Soon the wedding rituals were done and she was officially Mrs. Payal Pranav Rai and no more her brother's darling.. she went to the Rai mansion, seeing happiness in her father's eyes and missing the person she loved most.
~~~
The wedding had made buzz in the entire media.
Arjun was beyond furious. He felt helpless. He knew his sister had made a great error in judging a person. He had to protect her. But what could he do? She herself chose a wrong person. She had known the entire lengths that he went to trace his wife's murderer what he came to know was just a name Sikander and possible person behind that name, now his sister's husband, Mr. Pranav Rai. He did not want her suffer. But if this is their fate, he has no choice but to hurt his sister.
He recalled how he had found Roshni's body, and the image was replaced by the image of his sister in wedding finery.
"AAARRRGGHHH!!!!!!!" he threw the paper weight to the window and swiped the table tumbling the contents down. He was feeling helpless, same feeling of losing someone, that he had felt not many months back.
