The next morning, Ananya woke up with a sweet smile on her face.She got up on the bed and thought about the moments they had shared last night. She unknowingly blushed and then headed to take a bath.She came out of the washroom in her bathrobe and went to Aakash's room in that attire.Aakash was reading a magazine and having his coffee;sitting on the couch.He heard the sound of the door opening and as he looked up to Ananya,he became a total statue.Ananya was standing in a very seductive way holding the door.slowly she closed the door and started walking towards Aakash.Aakash was totally hypnotised by her.He kept his coffee aside and slowly stood up.Ananya came very close to him and taking his hand;she wrapped it around her waist and she wrapped her hands around his neck.She brought her face closer to him and whispered"good morning"they could feel each other's breath and now it was totally unbearable for Aakash.He brought his face closer to her and slowly their lips met but before it could extend,there was a knock on the door.One of the servants had come with Aakash's breakfast.The sudden sound ruined their moment and they parted.The servant entered and upon seeing both of them;gave a shocked expression but then he immediately looked away.Both Aakash and Ananya were very much embarrassed by his sudden arrival and they looked here and there to avoid the situation.
Ananya remembered that she had her classes to attend so she rushed towards her room to get ready while the servant again looked at both of them in a weird way and then left.
Ananya got ready and then came out towards the car.She gave a seductive smile to Aakash who was waiting for her to which he gave her a flirty look.Ananya walked up to him and before entering the car,she whispered"I am going to break your patience"
Ak:(in that same flirty tone)well,I won't mind that.
Both gave each other a flirty look and then got into the car and drove off.
When Ananya's classes were over, she came out of the university building and headed towards her car. As soon as she saw Aakash, he too looked at her and both smiled lovingly. They both got inside the car and Aakash started it. When they were on their way back to Rawat Mansion, Ananya turned towards Aakash.
An:Aakash tum isi sheher mein rehte ho? I mean tumhaara ghar...
Ak:Ha Ananya, ghar toh yehi pe hai. Par achaanak ye sawal kiu?
An:Mujhe tumhaare ghar jana hai. Mujhe le chaalo.
Ak:Abhi?
An:Ha abhi ke abhi.
Ak:Aaj nehi Ananya kisi aur din.
An:Par kiu? Mujhe toh abhi jana hai.
Ak:Par Ananya tumhe jaldi kis baat ki hai?
An:Are main shaadi ke baad toh wohi pe rehne waali hu na.Toh mujhe apna future home toh dekhna hi chahiye na?
Ak:(laughed out loud)Oh!toh isliye! Tumhe shaadi ki itni jaldi hai?
An:(gave an angry look) Isme hasne waali konsi baat hai? Aur tum kya mujhse shaadi nehi karna chahte?
Ak:(giving a frightened look) Maine aisa kab kaha? Of course main tumse shaadi karunga. Tum na chaho toh bhi karunga. Aur ghar bhi bohot jald le jaaunga I promise.
An:(with attitude) Thik hai. Par jaldi jaldi.
Ak:Jaisa ap bole madam.
They reached Rawat Mansion and after parking the car, entered inside together.
At night Ananya and Aakash had dinner together in Aakash's room.
An:Aakash tum mujhse aur koi baat toh nehi chupa nehi rahe ho na?
Ak:(shocked) Tum aisa kiu puch rahi ho?
An:Nehi woh aaj jab maine tumhe kaha ke mujhe apne ghar leke chalo toh tumne mana kar diya.
Ak:Ananya woh isliye kyuki main tumhe waha specially leke jaana chahta tha.Please trust me.
An:(laughed out loud)Are baba shant shant,main toh mazak kar rahi thi.tum itna serious kiu ho jaate ho?
Ak:Ananya tum bhi na.Tumne toh meri jaan hi nikaal di thi.
Both of them laughed and after finishing dinner both started chatting.After chatting for a while,Ananya got up and went near the window and closed her eyes
feeling the cold breeze that touched her face.Aakash came and hugged her from behind.
Ak:Ananya I love you.
An:(turned towards Aakash)I love you too Aakash.
They remained silent for sometime; peacefully closing their eyes in each other's embrace.
An:(without opening her eyes) Aakash please kabhi mujhe chorke mat jaana. Tum saath rehte ho na toh kisi bhi baat ka dar nehi rehta hai. Mujhe ek ajeeb tarike ki sukoon milti hai kyuki mujhe pata hai ki agar tum mere saath rahoge toh mujhe kuch bhi hone nehi doge.
Ak:(cupped Ananya's face) Ananya tum meri zindagi ho. Aur main humesha apni zindagi ka hifazaat karunga.
They hugged each other tightly.
Days passed by and Ananya and Aakash's love was blossoming more and more. The servants present in the house got hint of it easily but Ananya always ignored it. When Armaan and Monica returned from their trip Ananya welcomed them and she decided to talk to Armaan about her and Aakash's relationship whenever she gets a good opportunity.Meanwhile Monica noticed that Ananya and Aakash were getting way too much friendly and their body language made her get what Ananya was upto even more.She found them cuddling with each other many times and one day she straight away confronted Ananya about it.
Mo:(in a cold tone)Ananya, apne bodyguard ke saath had se kuch zyada hi miljhul nehi rahi ho tum?
An:Main kya karti hu kya nehi that is my personal matter. Aur aap ko koi haq nehi banta ke aap mere personal life mein dakhal de. So please just stay out of it.
Mo:Ye kya tarika hai baat karne ka? Ye maat bhulo ki main tumhaari maa hu. Koi iss tarha se...
An:(smiled sarcastically) Oh really? Toh aaj aapko suddenly yaad aagaya ki aap meri maa hai? Aajtak kabhi aapne mujhe apni beti maani bhi hai? Kabhi mujhse ek baar ke liye pyaar se baat kya hai apne? Kiu mom? Aakhir galati kya hai meri? Yehi,ki main aapki apni beti nehi hu? Adopted hu. Bolo na mom. Kiu aap mujhse itna nafrat karti ho? Kiu mujhe aapne ek baar bhi pyaar se gaale nehi lagaya?kiu?
Mo:(was taken a back for a moment) Aisi...ai..aisi baat nehi hai Ananya. Tum humaari beti ho. Tum...tum galat samajh rahi ho beta..
An:(started crying due to anger and frustration)It's ok Mrs Rawat. Aapko koi excuse dene ki zarurat nehi hai.
She left from there crying; leaving Monica still in a shocked state.
Ananya ran through the corridor, crying profusely and suddenly she bumped into Aakash who was coming from the opposite direction. Ananya raised up her face, looked at Aakash and then hugged him tightly. Aakash patted on her back to calm her down and holding her, slowly took her to his room and made her sit on the couch. He then kneeled down in front of her and then held her hands.
Ak:(in a soft voice)Ananya kya hua hai? Tum ro kiu rahi ho? Please mujhe batao.
An:(again hugged Aakash)Woh humesha aisa kiu karti hai Aakash?
Ak:(confused)Kon?Kiski baat kar rahi ho tum Ananya?
Ananya told Aakash everything what had happened and he became sad hearing everything. From the very first day he entered Rawat Mansion, he felt that Ananya and Monica didn't have a very smooth relation but he couldn't understand why as he never knew that Ananya was an adopted child. But today Ananya opened her heart out to him and he could understand the pain she was going through. He hugged Ananya tightly as if trying to protect her from all the sorrows;holding her in his strong arms.
After nearly two weeks Aakash was called for an important meeting to the headquarters. Aakash came to know that there was a very important mission he had to deal with and so according to his boss's order he talked to Mr Rawat telling him about family emergency and he granted his leave for two weeks.
Ananya came to know about this from her father and later she tried to contact with Aakash but couldn't as his phone was switched off. She knew that Aakash had proper reasons but still she was tensed. She texted Aakash many times expressing her concern for him and how much she was missing him and that whenever he gets back she just wants to hug him tightly and kiss him like a mad. All of her messages that contained her immense love for Aakash; they did reach his phone but he couldn't get them as he kept his phone switched off. Ananya waited everyday patiently for his reply but she would get nothing but disappointment as Aakash never replied back. Still Ananya tried to get a grip on herself thinking that there was only few days left for his return. But every minute without him seemed like a year to her and it seemed like she was lost in a desert,searching for water desperately but couldn't get it. Ananya looked up to the sky and prayed for her love and also requested to send him to her as soon as possible.
On the other hand Aakash was alos missing her badly. He was very much busy with his mission but whenever he would get a little free time Ananya's thoughts would surround his mind and he would become totally desperate to get to her. When his mission finally ended and he switched his phone on he got all the messages Ananya had sent him and those made him even more restless. He wanted to talk to her right at the very moment but he stopped himself. He thought of giving Ananya a surprise and so decided to meet her directly and not to talk over phone.
Ananya was happily checking herself out in front of the mirror. The day had come finally when her Aakash was about to return. Ananya had no mood of attending her classes today but she had to as it was very important. During this days, when Aakash was away one of the drivers used to take her to her university and bring her back home.But now it was not needed anymore as her Aakash was returning.
Ananya checked herself for one last time. She couldn't help but blush like a mad at the thought of seeing Aakash after so many time.Everytime she thinks about him,a strange feeling surrounds her that Aakash is near her and he is watching each and every movement of her and is constantly reading her mind. As Ananya came out, she closed her eyes and murmured"I love you Aakash" and it seemed like instantly someone replied in Aakash's voice"I love you too Ananya" Ananya opened her eyes with a jerk and realised that again it was her foolish mind. Ananya said blushing"Main bhi na!" and she got inside the car.
After finishing her classes when Ananya came outside looking for her car, someone called her from the other side of the road. Ananya stood still as she heard that voice, the voice that was like music in her ears, that voice which always made her restless, the voice which she was craving to hear for about a decade. She turned around and found Aakash standing spreading his hands and inviting her for a long awaited hug. Ananya started to take steps towards him. Aakash was totally lost looking at her and he continued to lovingly stare at her but suddenly that smile faded away as he saw a black jeep blocking Ananya's way. Before Aakash could figure out anything,two men jumped out of the jeep and grabbed
Ananya forcefully and put her inside the car. Ananya screamed"Aakash!" As soon as Aakash understood the situation the jeep had started with a fast speed and Aakash brought his gun out and shot aiming the tires of the jeep but failed in his attempt. In reply, one man from inside the jeep took out a rifle and aimed at Aakash. Aakash fell down on the ground as two bullets hit his body. He was slowly getting unconscious as he saw Ananya going away from him crying and shouting his name. As the jeep vanished away, Aakash uttered for one last time"Ananya" and then he slowly closed his eyes.
