Episode 21
Sorry guys, I couldn’t update yesterday as I was busy. I hope you all are liking the way the story is progressing, guys, if you at any point feel that it is boring or not readable, please do tell me as I don’t wish to present something that my readers don’t like. So share your frank opinions in the comments below.
Also, I want to ask you all, how many of you want Om back in the frame? I’ll schedule his entry depending on what majority of the readers want. If you want I’ll bring him back after 1-2 episodes with dhamakedar style.
Now coming back to the story,
RECAP: Anika calls off the engagement…..Ishana remembers Om…..Shivika and Rumya to help Ishu for her event
At present, Shri Ram Nikiten Kala Bhavan (it’s completely imaginary – the place where Ishu’s event will be held),
Ishana reached the venue along with Shivika and Rumya, Ishana’s team had already arrived and were busy with work, and Trisha comes there,
Trisha: Acha hua Ishu, you came, there is lots of work.
Ishana: Don’t worry Trisha, we have help now.
Ishana introduces Trisha to ShivRu (AniSou already know her).
Trisha: That’s great, working together will decrease work load.
Ishana: So let’s divide the work amongst us.
They divide the work amongst them, Rumya will look after the arrangements for the guests, and Shivika will help with the planning and decorations along with Trisha.
Ishana: What will I do?
Anika: You’ll only concentrate on your performance and nothing more.
Ishana: But…
Shivaay: No ifs and buts, your performance is really imp and you’ll practice only.
Soumya: So, let’s start with the work.
They all go for their respective works.
Rumya’s side,
Soumya goes and sits on one of the chairs, Rudra looks surprised at her,
Rudra: Oh hello, maharani sahiba, we are here for work.
Soumya: Please Rudra, don’t disturb, I am tired.
Rudra gives her an impossible wala look.
Rudra: Tired, we didn’t start with the work and you are tired already.
Soumya: Yes I am tired, and you concentrate on the work not me.
Rudra: I am concentrating on the work, anyways who has time to waste with you.
Soumya: What did you say, talking to me is waste of time?
Rudra: So what you thought it’s useful, it’s completely useless.
Soumya: As if you are very useful.
Rudra: Better than you.
Soumya: Acha, wait I’ll show you how useful I am.
Rudra: leave it, tumse nahi hoga.
Soumya: Don’t you dare challenge Soumya Singh Oberoi, you don’t know me.
Rudra: Acha, let’s see.
Soumya: Just wait and watch.
Soumya gets up, she asks the helper for guest list and starts with the work. Rudra smiles as his plan to make her work succeeds, he smiles at her antics. He too starts helping her.
Shivika’s side,
Shivaay was checking on the decorations when Anika comes there, Shivaay looks at her but turns his gaze, Anika feels irked as Shivaay had been ignoring her ever since the last night,
Anika (to herself): He says I have attitude and ego, but what about his attitude, kal se aise ignore kar raha hai jaise I have done something wrong with him. But even I am Anika Singh Oberoi, and no one has the courage to ignore me.
Anika walks up to him and her full attitude speaks,
Anika: See this event is very imp for Ishu and I don’t want anything missing.
Shivaay doesn’t pay attention, Anika is even more irked,
Anika: I am talking to you, at least say yes or no, itna attitude acha nahi hai.
Still no response from Shivaay, now she gets angry, Anika held his arm and made him face her,
Anika: Do you think I am mad that I am talking alone here, what is your problem? Why are you ignoring me as if I have done something wrong with you? What is wrong with you, I am talking to you from then and you are ignoring me?
Shivaay: How does it matter to you, if I talk to you or ignore you? How do I matter to you at all? Anyways a person like me, who has nothing like NKK has no value in your life, then why value me this much.
Shivaay speaks looking straight in her eyes, his pain and hurt was evident from his eyes and voice, Anika remembered what all she said last night, Shivaay turned to go but stopped and said,
Shivaay: Don’t worry about the event, I know my work.
He leaves from there without even bothering to give her a glance.
Anika feels guilty as to saying all this but she couldn’t understand how to mend her mistake, one side her brain told her not to care about this stuff but the other side her heart told her to rectify her mistake, but as always her heart faced defeat, she had stopped listening to it long back, now she only did what her mind said was right and in all this she had changed from that once a lively, chirpy bird to a rude, arrogant and heartless one. Although Ishana and Soumya tried hard to make her the old Anika, they had failed always. And now from nowhere, he came to her life and was reminding her of the old Anika, who listened to her heart, she couldn’t understand what effect he had on her but she wasn’t going to let him matter much.
Anika left the place angrily.
Ishana’s side,
Ishana was busy practicing when she felt his presence around her, she looked around, and was surprised to see Om standing right in front of her, she couldn’t believe her eyes, he looked at her, and they shared an eye-lock,
(“Milke tumse khush hu lekin
Dil hai phir bhi uljha uljha
Door kar de, paas aa kar
Kal hume na koi lamha
Pad jayein naa dil par kahi
Gum kah nishan O Saathiya
Pad jayein naa dil par kahi
Gum kah nishan O Saathiya
Saathiya Saathiya
Saathiya Saathiya…” O Saathiya plays in BG)
Omkara: Sorry, I didn’t mean to disturb you. You look beautiful when you dance. I told you naa, you are the best dancer.
Ishana just kept looking at him, she was disturbed by Trisha’s voice who was calling her. Ishana turned back but Om wasn’t there.
Ishana (thinking): What is wrong with me….why I am seeing him everywhere…..I need to stop all this.
Rumya’s side,
Rudra was happy as Soumya was doing work with greater enthusiasm, he just kept looking at her and was lost in her,
Rudra (thinking): how childish she acted and at times she was so mature……she is so easy to convince yet hard to understand……she is so innocent at heart……..she never hurts anybody, she wants all to be happy……how carefree she is, she isn’t afraid of problems and doesn’t give a damn about it………she has hundred problems around her but she’ll always solve others problem first….. (Rudra realized what he was thinking)…..why I am thinking about her….Oh God, she is making me also mad like her (He smiled at his silly thoughts)
PRECAP: Ishana’s event……Shivika fight……Rumya moments
