Beautiful update, finally RK faced Rihan, likewise he need to face the remaining two, but i wonder why rihan was here to meet RK again, either he is going to be on rk side further to make them win over that anjali or to spy for them, waiting eagerly for next update.
Later that night, when I came back from work, I saw RK sitting in the living room, working on his laptop. I saw him, he was in his casual white linen shirt and blue denims. "Hey.", he said as he looked towards the door as I entered. "Hey.", I smiled. "How was your day?", he asked me. "Great! It was fun!", I smiled and grabbed a glass of water. "Lets go out.", he looked at me. "Now?", I asked him, shocked. "Yeah! Now.", he smiled and put his hands his pockets. Ohh man! I could just die if he hugged me right now. He looked so handsome. "I'll go get ready.", I bit my lip and excused myself.
I came out in my cotton balloon top and black jeans. As soon as we exited, I put on my jacket and we came out. RK asked the driver to halt us at some nice park. He left us in a huge patch of greenery. We strolled around. There were quite a few people around. They all held hands and walked. I bit my lip as I noticed RK walking with his palms in his pockets. "This is getting weird.", I chuckled. "You just want to walk?", I asked. He looked at me. "Yeah. Pretty much.", he said. I raised my brows, "Ohhkkay!", I muttered and sighed and looked around. "How long are you planning to stay with me?", I asked again after a few minutes.
"Forever!", he spoke out of the blue. I gasped and a smile crept my lips. "I meant, Sydney mein?", I bit my lip hiding my blush. "I am looking for a land here! Need to shift base here."
"Are you doing that because I am here?", I choked.
"No! I always wanted a functional branch at Sydney. With you around, it just triggered the acceleration"
"Ohh", I felt bad. A part of me wanted to hear him say that all this was because I was here.
"So you'll visit often?", I smiled.
"Hmm.", he said. My face dropped. My husband was a man of few words.
"I saw him yesterday. And I told him to go away from me.", he continued walking away from me. I stood there, looking at him walking away and then ran to keep up. "Ohh", I said trying to enter the discussion. "Why is he here?", I asked him.
"According to him, he is trying to repent."
"I don't believe it.", I rolled my eyes.
"I don't, either.", he looked at me. I gave him a considerate smile and then we walked to a chair and sat down. He rested his elbows on his knees and looked at the grass below. "Something bothering you?", I broke the silence.
"Not specifically.", he looked at me.
"Then?", I dragged myself closer.
"It is just a little weird."
"What is weird."
"All of this. Everything is falling in the right place and its odd.", he looked at me. I sighed. I agree, it must be difficult, to imagine that things could ever be right again, if I were RK.
"They are right.", I told him.
"It bothers me. Like something terrible might just happen."
"...like what?"
"Something that takes you away from me!", he admitted. I felt a lump in my throat.
"Even if, God forbid, life decides to drift us apart, just remember RK. I'll always love you. And we'll drift away because of our destinies and not our actions.", I told him. He clutched my hand tightly.
"I have seen separation, and trust me Madhu. It is not worth experiencing."
"We won't separate, ever. Bond develops there, in the heart. Time and space can do nothing to it", I smiled.
"You sure?"
"100%", I winked. "Achcha tell me something!", I smiled sheepishly.
"Hmm"
"On our official night", I flushed deep red at the thought, "you said you haven't done it before... Its reckless to ask. But how is that possible?"
He popped his eyes open. I looked away in embarrassment. "I...", he stammered. "I never took the initiative..", he blew out air heavily as he spoke. I bit my lip. "Ok!", I rolled my eyes. "Lets go!", I said not wanting to extend the topic. He stood up and followed me.

We reached back into our building and as RK walked towards the apartment, I waited for some work. As I stood and signed the permission papers, a pizza boy walked past me towards the lift. "Which floor?", the guard yelled and asked him. "5th floor, Sir.", he said. I signed and proceeded towards the same lift. As the doors of the lift shut, I turned around and saw him. His was a familiar face, I had seen it somewhere. Only if I could recall. "Madhubala Mallick?", he said looking at me. I raised a brow and then a minute later, realization dawned upon me. "Rihan?", I blurted out. "What are you doing here?", he shot back. "Excuse me!", I was taken aback. "I am sorry mam! I didn't expect you here.", he said. I fumed in anger. "What are you doing here?", I rolled my eyes. "I work here, as a waiter in daytime and pizza boy in the evenings."
"Ohh! Weren't you RK'a PA or something last time we met?", I glared. He looked away. The lift opened and we both got out. RK was waiting for me at the door. "Madhu! What the hell!", he shot back. And then he saw Rihan walking behind me and he froze. Rihan saw him and for a moment got confused about seeing us together. "RK! OMG, you here?", I faked surprise. "Madhubala?", he whispered confused. "Ohh god! Thats a long time!", I faked a feel of surprised joy and hugged him. "Hold on, love!", I whispered to him. He tightened his clutch for a second and then left me. "Hi, RK!", Rihan faked a smile. RK glared back at him. "How are you here?", RK faked a question. "Ohh! I just came to...", I paused and looked around. "...to talk to Mr Johnson. There he lives!", I pointed at the door infront of us reading the name of the owner of the house. "You live here RK?", I asked back. And then, careful not to be noticed by Rihan... I signalled RK to refuse. "No! I don't live here.", he stammered. "I am here to see this apartment for a business deal."
"Ohh, great. See you later.", I faked a smile and waited for Rihan to deliver the Pizza and go away. As soon as he took the lift, RK tilted on the door and sighed loudly. He pulled and hugged me tightly. "I had my heart in my mouth. What if he had come to know of this!", he sighed and hugged me! I hugged him back. "Relax!", I told him comforting him.

Next day, I had an event to cover in the same hotel where RK had a party. RK had left for Brisbane by an early morning flight. I reached early and took my seat. There were two more people from my crew and as I bad as I am in remembering names, it was Liz and Roy. Roy was one of the Indians in the company. It was nice to have an Indian company. Liz was an Australian Blonde, and she reminded me of Ri, to think of whom made me miss her terribly. All I longed was to tell all these girly gossips to someone.
"Madhu?", she felt hard to pronounce my name every time she tried. "Yeah, Liz!", I turned to her. "I'll be back hun! Just need a little insight about all of this.", she rolled her eyes around. I nodded. Roy had left to set the questions and recorders. I sat there going through my set of questions. "Hey, Madhu Mam!", the same voice rang in my ears. I took a heavy breath and glared at him. "What are you doing here.", I stood up and spat at him. "I work here, daytime job."
"I came to know of something you know.", I rolled my eyes at him crossing my hands on my chest. "What?", he said to me.
"That you bartered RK's trust and friendship for money?", I glared into his eyes. His eyes moistened and he stood there numb.
"Who told you."
"I am a f**king journo! YOU SERIOUSLY SOLD OF YOUR FRIENDSHIP TO SAHIL ROY?", I suddenly stopped and looked around. Nobody was thankfully watching.
"I can explain."
"Ohh no you can't! NOW BEFORE I GET NASTY, take your baggage and get lost from my eyesight you imbecile thing!"
"Ok, Mam!", he said and left. I took heavy breaths and calmed myself down.
The event began and Rihan's memory faded from my mind.
Later in the evening, I received a note on my desk. It was written in hand and the sender hadn't put his name on the envelope.
ohhh oke,,,I can understand what RK is gng through..love Madhu's confidence in everything...Rihan...some how I feel...he is innocent but not completely though..I guess...someone else is also involved in this...
mallik?????...I dnt knw...just my imagination..
Anyways...Thanks for the update Shivu...keep it up..👏👏
awww rks worry r understandable its obvious for him to think of wat might happen next but i have a feeling that sultan is also involved along with sahil roy n maybe they blackmailed rihan to do all of it but no matter wat nothing justifies wat rihan did rk trusted him n he broked him brutually its just not acceptable to watever reasons he have to explain so now he sended a letter to madhu lets see wat she does i guess she shd inform rk first before doing anything cont.soon
Nice part shivu 😃 So Rihan n madhu came face to face ...madhu took out her anger on rihan 👍🏼 waiting to read more about envelope 😳 Rk left for brisbane 😭 😭 😭 update soon 😳 like not working 😡
