Episode 20

***Arjun Malik is been played by Varun Kapoor (Sanskar from Swaragini)
Vikram Malik and Sandhya Malik are his parents (you can imagine anyone you want) ***

RECAP: ShivRu will stay in OM…..Ishana talks to Anika about her decision to marry Arjun…..Shivika look sadly at each other during the engagement

At present, Oberoi Mansion,

Anika stands near Arjun,

Sandhya (Arjun’s mom): Anika beta, you are looking beautiful.

Anika just smiles at her compliment. All this while Shivaay was just looking at Anika, something inside him was breaking when he saw Anika with Arjun, he couldn’t explain this feeling in words but his eyes conveyed everything,

Shivaay (thinking): What is happening to me….why I am not able to see her go away…..why can’t I see her with someone else……why do I feel like she only belongs to me……….why is this happening to me…….why am I being so much affected by her…….. (He just kept looking at her)

At the other side,

Rudra sees Soumya standing alone away from others, he walks to her,

Rudra: It’s your Anika Di’s engagement and you are standing here away from others, why?
Soumya: Because I am in no mood to be a part of all this.
Rudra: Why aren’t you happy?
Soumya: I would have been the happiest if even Di was happy, but when she herself is not, how can I be happy?
Rudra: Anika Di is not happy, but why? I mean Arjun seems like a nice guy.
Soumya: Arjun is nice but Di doesn’t love him and marrying someone without love, I can’t think of it.
Rudra: You are saying as if arrange marriage is new to us, it’s what India follows.
Soumya: That I don’t know but I’ll do love marriage only. (Rudra starts laughing, Soumya looks at him shocked) are you mad, why are you laughing, I didn’t crack any joke?
Rudra: You and love, I am laughing at the person’s fate, who’ll fall for you.
Soumya: What do you mean?
Rudra: Matlab saaf hain, marrying you means danger for lifetime. (He starts laughing again)
Soumya: acha, and the one who’ll marry you naa, she’ll to regret it for lifetime.
Rudra: Oh hello, you don’t know me, whomever I’ll marry would be the world’s luckiest girl.
Soumya: That time will tell.

They give each other looks and go in opposite directions.

Back to Arjun-Anika,

Pinky: So all have come, let’s start with the ceremony.
Sandhya: Yes sure (she gives the ring to Arjun) Arjun, make my DIL wear it.

Arjun takes the ring and forwards his hand to Anika, he smiles at her, Anika places her hand in his, Arjun makes her wear the ring, all clap.

Pinky: Yeh le, Anika, your turn.

Anika takes the ring, she looks at Arjun who smiles at her, but Anika’s mind was preoccupied by thoughts, Ishana’s words were ringing in her mind, her eyes turned to Shivaay, who was only looking at her, they share an eye-lock,

(“Nazdeek hai dil ke, Phir kyun lage mil ke
Jaise ho milo door hum
Jaazba hai anjaana, Mushkil hai samjhana
Apna hai ya gair WO
Ishq mein adhoora SA, Ruh mein hai pura SA
Dard hai yeh saari umra ka
O Jaana……” O Jaana plays in BG)

The ring falls from Anika’s hand and rolls down to where Shivaay was standing. All look surprised at Anika.

Ishana (to Anika): Anika, see even the ring knows its right place.

Anika looks at Shivaay, Shivaay picks up the ring and walks to Anika,

Shivaay (handing over the ring to her): Time is precious, don’t delay.

He gives her the ring and walks back but stops hearing Anika’s voice,

Anika: I am sorry but I cannot do this engagement.

All are shocked hearing this, Shivaay turns around and looks at her shocked.

Pinky: Anika, what are you saying? Have you lost it?
Anika: I know mom what I am saying, I am sorry Arjun but I can’t do this now. I am not saying that I won’t marry you, it’s just that I need some time to think about it. Please try and understand.
Pinky: Anika, tu pagal ho gayi hai kya?
Dadi: Pinky, don’t shout at her, after all it’s her decision, if she needs time, let her take it.
Arjun: I think Dadi is right, I understand it’s not easy for any girl to take such a big decision, Anika, you need time, you can take whatever time you want, I am with you.

Anika smiles at him, Anika: Thank you so much Arjun, you are really nice. I am sorry for all this.

Sandhya: Its ok Anika, we understand your POV also. We want you both to be happy, take your time.
Jhanvi: Thank you so much Sandhya.
Vikram: No need to say thank you.

After having dinner, all guests leave.

At night, Anika’s room,

Anika was sitting near the pool lost in thoughts,

Anika (thinking): Why did I do this……Arjun is perfect for me…..then why didn’t I get engaged…..what is stopping me?

IshSou come there, Anika look at them,

Ishana: So finally, you thought about my words.
Soumya: Ishu, not your words, she thought about Shivaay bhaiya.
Anika: Shut up both of you, nothing like that. Whatever I did was because I wasn’t sure, and Anika Singh Oberoi doesn’t make decisions unless she is sure about it. And rahi baat Shivaay ki, he will never matter to me, hai hi kya uske pass, he even doesn’t have a surname, and the one who doesn’t have NKK, has no value in my life.

Anika turns around to see Shivaay standing behind her, IshSou look at him,

Ishana: Shivaay, WO….
Shivaay: I hope I didn’t disturb you, actually I came to keep these files.

He keeps the files and leaves. After he left,

Ishana: Anika, you don’t think before saying anything. He is hurt by your words.
Anika: I don’t think so. (She too leaves, IshSou look on)

The next day,

Ishana was leaving for the academy when she gets a call,

Ishana: hello
Trisha: hello, ishu, where are you? There are so many arrangements left for the event.
Ishana: Arre just ask Om, he’ll help. (Ishana realized what she said) Trisha, I am coming there only, I’ll talk to you. (She disconnected the call)

Ishana remembered Om, all the flashbacks play in her mind,

Omkara: What happened Ishana, not able to forget me?

Ishana couldn’t believe her eyes, she kept looking at him,

Omkara: What happened Ishana?

He moved closer to her, Ishana walked backwards, Om moved closer, she moved back, at last she reached the wall, now she was imprisoned between him and the wall, Om moved even closer, Ishana closed her eyes, she could feel him near him,

(“O Saathiya plays in BG”)

Ishana: Om, please go….Om

She shouted and opened her eyes but to her surprise, no one was there,

Ishana (thinking): What is happening to me….why I am thinking about him…..he lied to me….broke my trust….played with my emotions….still I am unable to forget him….why…..

Ishana’s thoughts were disturbed by AniSou,

Soumya: Ishu, what are you doing here?
Ishana: Nothing
Anika: What happened Ishu, you look worried?
Ishana: Nothing, just this event work, tomorrow is the event and I have lots of work.
Anika: Only this naa, don’t worry we’ll help you.
Soumya: Haa Ishu, tum bhi naa, aise hi tension leti ho.
Rudra: First time, you said something sensible.

AnIshSou turn to see ShivRu,

Soumya: What do you mean?
Shivaay: Nothing, he just meant you are so sensible. And Ishana, don’t worry, we both will also help you.

Shivika look at each other.

Ishana: Thanks to you all, now I don’t have to worry.
Anika: Not at all.

PRECAP: Preparations for Ishana’s event…..Shivaay ignores Anika…..Rumya moments…….Ishana feels Om’s presence
