Episode starts with…
Its 8am, AR House, Friday,
Riddhima had no important work and the morning dream had disturbed her a lot and those thoughts weren’t leaving her. She decided to stay back and spend some alone time. She called Sejal
Riddhima: Sejal, I won’t be able to accompany you for client meeting. Please manage.
Sejal: Are you ok? You sound different.
Riddhima: Am not feeling good. Want to stay alone.
Sejal: What happened?
Riddhima: I don’t want to talk about that. Please
Sejal: Acha ok, I’ll manage. Take care
Riddhima sat in her room reminiscing all the memories Vansh and she shared a month ago and the pain she was enduring from weeks. She wasn’t able to handle herself. She wanted to share her pain with someone but she didn’t find any who can understand her dilemma. She sat in her balcony hugging her teddy and was lost in thoughts.
Angre: Riddhu,
Riddhima turned to see her brother standing near her room entrance with breakfast
Riddhima: Bhai! What are you doing here! I mean you had some work right; you were supposed to go.
Angre: Yeaa was going when servant said that you didn’t have your breakfast. So, thought to bring it myself
Riddhima: Bhai, sorry bhai but not in mood
Angre: Riddhu, come sit here. Tell me what happened? Have been observing you since many days, you aren’t properly eating, aren’t taking care of yourself, are always lost in thoughts, trying to spend much time in hospital and office. What’s the matter?
Riddhima felt like revealing her heart pain and cry in his arms but she didn’t find it right as he might be disturbed too and it was matter of his friendship with Vansh. She controlled her emotions and
Riddhima: Nothing bhai. I am perfectly fine. It’s just that there’s much work pressure. That’s it.
Angre: Why do I feel like you are hiding something.
Riddhima: Bhai, you love me so you are protected that’s it. I am absolutely fine.
Angre receives a call so he excuses himself and went to answer and after a while when he came back
Riddhima: Bhai, you have an important work I know. You stop worrying about me, I am perfectly fine. Trust me. You be stress free and go
Angre: I know you more than you so I am sure there’s something that’s hurting you deep inside and you are trying to hide it with this fake smile. So, am not going to leave this topic, now I am going but, in the evening, I need to know everything. There won’t be any lies. Remember
Saying so he left and Riddhima was hurt for lying to her brother and was weeping. She didn’t know how to cope with all that’s happening with her. She recollected how she spent her past weeks in this upset way – “What’s happening to me, why am I being like this, why am I not being able to forget him, why am I always lost in his thoughts, I don’t think this can be love, if it is then it’s wrong, I have spent my whole month thinking about him. I used to go to hospital and office name sake and be lost in his thoughts, at night would go to my place quite early than usual so as to avoid him, why do I feel this wrong, love is never wrong, I don’t even know what’s he going through. Not even sure if even he feels the same”. “Riddhima, you need to cope with this as its affecting bhai too. He is worried for you. You need to be happy for him. You can’t see him upset. You need to realise that Vansh doesn’t feel the same for you and this love is wrong. First of all, it’s not love, it’s just….” “What’s these feelings called!!!” she held her head and burst out and she didn’t realise when she dozed off in her chair.
Its 9am, RS Mansion,
Vansh sat in his chair staring at his laptop screen and lost in thoughts – “What’s all this! Why am I unable to forget her, why am I still feeling connected for her, why am I unable to control my feelings, I don’t even know if she feels the same for me”. Breaking his thoughts, he received a call
Vansh: Ashish, cancel all my meetings for today.
Ashish: But sir, we have an important meeting with …
Vansh (angry): Ashish do as I say. I don’t want to hear any more buts
Ashish: Okay Sir.
He sat there lost in his thoughts. His memories with Riddhima were flashing. He had a slight smile. Her memories were bringing smile and happiness on Vansh’s face
Sejal reached RS Mansion. Some naughty mission was on Ishani and Sejal’s mind and they were discussing the same
Sejal: Guess what, Riddhima didn’t show for work even today, she has been doing so more frequently since past few weeks. She has turned depressed. Something definitely is running in her mind but she’s not sharing with anyone
Ishani: Even bhai has turned moody these days, that bhai who we saw laughing, smiling, being lively faded again. He is just confined to his room. I feel something is fishy.
Sejal: Vaise don’t you think we need to work on our plan asap.
Ishani: I think you are right we can’t delay anymore. Come we need to get to work
Saying so they both left Ishani’s room to ____ room
Its 11am. RS Mansion,
Angre: (panting) Vansh
Vansh woke up with a startle and stared at the door way with frown on his face and seeing Angre’s condition he controlled his anger and stared at him
Angre (panting): I got some information about that person
Vansh (eyes widened): Shoot out
Angre: They are eying RS Mansion from past 1 month and the reason is unknown.
Vansh stood in anger, with volcanoes erupting in his eyes
Vansh: How dare they target my family. They have issue with me and now my whole family is at risk.
Angre: Vansh, calm down. I need to tell you something else too
Vansh: What
Angre: They aren’t eying only RS Mansion but also…. (silent)
Vansh felt like danger surrounding his family and he felt helpless. He didn’t know what to do!!!
Angre: Vansh relax. The situation is very risky. We can’t even tell anyone. I am trying to gather more information. I’ll keep you posted.
Angre: I was wondering if you could join me now, actually, I am going to meet one of my informer. If you’d like to join…
Vansh nodded in disapproval and so Angre left
Vansh collapsed on his chair and the first thought he got was of Riddhima – “Why is this happening with me, I can’t love her, I can’t risk her life, her life would be at stake if she would be near me, I have seen her break and getup now I can’t let anyone hurt her. I have been avoiding her to ignore my feelings but these feelings are just growing day by day, what do I do! I haven’t seen her or heard her voice from 1 month to avoid her from occupying my heart but her thoughts are enough for occupying my heart, this can’t be love, I can’t accept this love. This love would put her life at stake and I can’t take that risk even in my worst dreams”. “Vansh you need to control your feelings for her safety. Her life is more important than she being with you. You don’t even know if she feels the same for you. So, just forget her and focus on the danger which may fall on her if she is near you”
“How can you say that she’ll be safe and happy without you??”
Vansh wiped his tears and turned towards door to see who it was and he was shocked to see who that was and was wondering how does that person know about his love for her.
So that’s all for today. Hope you guys are enjoying and please do comment and let me know your views and suggestions if any needed.
