Part 1 :
"To soch lo Kabir, kya chahte ho tum?" She smirked sitting across the table
"I don't trust you" he huffed
"I don't either" She said eyeing him
"Okay then can we compromise and come on a middle ground?" He said
"You don't really have an option, do you?" She smirked
"Fine" he gulped shrugging his shoulders
"Get ready to die then, Ex boyfriend" she dramatically rolled her eyes and stretched her hands, he shaked hands with her and nodded.
"But what if you double cross me" He asked as she started leaving
"I can" she pouted "but you have to trust me I won't" she sighed, looked at him one last time and left.
*******************
"Where did you go?" Asked Vansh as soon as she entered their room
"I went to talk to Kabir" she said sitting in front of the mirror, there was no point lying, this was his house and his eyes were always on her
"Why?" He calmly asked
"I have to kill him, just wanted some dedication" she chuckled
"Did you get some?" He raised his brows
"Of course, the guy is a snake spits venom"
"Good, so when are you going to.."
"Tomorrow" she said determined
"What?" He asked shocked
"Mera bus chalta to aj he khatam kar deti par fir.." she pressed her lips together
"Fir?"
"Purana pyar hai mera, kuch taras to khana padega na" she twitched her lips and winked at him. Vansh was surprised would be an understatement, he knew she would agree to it but this Avatar of hers was making him nervous and his gut was saying something was wrong.
************
"Dadi! Angre! Vansh bhai" Ishani shouted
Vansh woke up from the noise
"Kya hogya subah subah" he stood up slowly and stretched his hands
"Tum kya kr rahi ho" he turned to look at Ridhima who was eating the chips and scrolling through his phone
"Do they have a Spotify playlist for ex boyfriends funeral?" She said biting on her chip
His mouth formed an O and he looked at her astonished
"Is it.." he heard the commotion downstairs and looked at her
"Bhai bhai someone call the ambulance" Angre knocked on his door
"Jao, arthi uthao, itte desperate the tum to murder him ab der kis baat ki" she blinked dramatically
"Oh my god" he ran towards the door and opened it to see a breathless Angre
"Kabir" he said breathing heavily
"What happened?"
"There was an unknown fire in his room and I don't think he's alive, the body is burnt so bad you can hardly recognise him" He completed
"What?" He spat as he ran through the corridors along with him leaving a grinning Ridhima alone.

"Ye kya kia tumne?" She heard her husband's voice and rolled her eyes
"Kya kia? Mene kia?" She said turning her neck to one side
"Ridhima"
"What?" She said seriously "are you Ghajini or something? This is what you wanted right" she said
"Yes but not like this" he gritted his teeth
"Then like what?" She asked
He had no answer he looked at her baffled
"Oh. I get it" she said as if she cracked teh code
"You wanted to get me caught, red handed" she whispered
"Tch tch tch alas" she sadly said
"That's not what I meant"
"Then?"
"I.." he gulped
"But I have heard the cops are coming to investigate" she inhaled sharply
"When did all this happened?" She poked her head trying to remember
"Early in the morning"
"Oh! I was sleeping besides what wrong have I done to my sweet little evil dead ex boyfriend" she said stressing each and every word
"But you.. where were you?" She asked him pouting
"Sleeping" he said irritated
"Then how come you called him minutes before he burned to ashes? You even had a ugly fight last night where you threathened him" she said slightly louder thn a whisper coming extremely close to him.
"What are you talking about?" He let out a nervous laugh
"Haw!" She said keeping her palm on her mouth
"It's not me it's the watsapp convo" she picked up the phone and showed him
"It's not me Riddhima, it's you" he said snatching the phone and screaming nervously
"Says who?" She asked innocently
"What do you want?" He asked frustrated
"Tell Ishani to wash my dirty clothes for starters then tell Aryan to sleep in servants quarter and you shift out of this room meanwhile I have to go to temple with Dadi" she said sitting on the bed and smirking
"Tumhara dimaag.."
"Or I will do that once i send you behind bars and get the power of attorney" She blinked
"You..bitch.." he pulled her by her hair closer to him
"Vansh nahi vansh mjhe maaf krdo vansh, mjhse galti ho gai vansh" she said sobbing
"Kya laga tumhe esa kuch kahungi" she pushed him and laughed
"Kapde sare nikal k rakh diye h Vansh, jab dhul jaye to Bata Dena" she said setting her hair straight and moving out of the room
