Shivansh's pov
[ " Shiv.....Hey.....look at me.....how am I looking?" I heard Niyati calling me.
I didn't look at her as I wam very busy doing some work on my laptop. I have an important meeting in few hours.
" Look at me. Tell me, how am I looking in this saree," She again asked pulling my hands.
I shut down the laptop and looked at her with annoyed eyes. Looking at her, I just couldn't control my laughter. I laughed out loud seeing her.
" Am I looking that bad?" She asked me sadly and looked at her reflection through the mirror.
I controlled my laughter," You are looking like a ripe orange. Who had chosen this saree for you?"
" Mammi
ji(mother in law). So, I am looking bad and you are making fun of me," She replied making a poker face and started opening her jewellery.Oh!! God!! This woman is really something. I was just joking and she took it seriously. She was looking marvellous in this saree.
" Now, I am looking ugly in your eyes," She whined like a kid and threw away the necklace somewhere in the room and I am still chuckling with my tight lips.
So, she is angry and sad. She is looking cute with her red angry face and I know how to handle this angry bird.
" You know what flower, I love oranges. They are sweet and sour at a time. I would love to eat this orange," I whispered seductively in her ear and held her waist from behind.
She wriggled in my arms and said angrily," Leave me, I don't need your flattering words."
" Is that so? Hmm!" I said kissing her back neck softly. She just stopped her wriggling and moaned a little.
" Is my angry bird still angry? What I have to do to calm her down?" I asked my flower and made her look into my eyes.
She smiled innocently and said," You will not get any kiss from me for one week and that's your punishment."
Saying that she smiled evilly and I just lost it. How can she say that? It will be pure torture for me if she refuses to give me kisses.
" That's not right," I whined with frustration and she just laughed loudly looking at my face.]
I again remembered that girl and a long sigh left from my mouth. No matter what I just can't forget her. Her beautiful face, innocent eyes and refreshing smile always bothers me. I never thought that behind her beautiful laughter, a selfish and characterless woman was hiding.
My trail of thoughts were cut when someone entered my office cabin. I looked at the person and it is none other than my brother Yash.
" We have finally bought the 'Singh Enterprise'. The legal papers are in my hand," He said giving me some files and sat in front of me.
I checked the files and said smiling," That's great. This company really worth the money. It has more branches than us."
" Hmm. Mr Singh wanted to meet you as you are the new Chairman of 'Singh Enterprise'. So, what do you think? Will you go to Pune to meet him?" He asked me cautiously.
" Fine then. I will meet him after 2 days," I replied. Though I wanted to refuse but I don't know why I agreed.
Then, we talked for some time about an upcoming project and how to increase our profit. My father fears that I am becoming reckless and ruining his reputation. I have to prove to him that he is wrong.
" I heard that Dad is thinking to make me heir and give the company in my name," Yash asked me suddenly.
I looked at him and found him smirking at me. I saw his satisfactory eyes.
" So what?" I asked him dramatically giving no importance to his smirk.
He chuckled and said trying very hard to provoke me," Tsk....tsk.....bro..I feel pity for you. Because of your womanizer nature, you are going to lose your position."
" At least I am not a child molester. I still remember how you molested a 15-year-old girl. Being a womanizer is far better than being a child molester," I replied sarcastically and he just lost his all colours from his face.
He replied coldly," It was your ex-wife's misconception. I didn't do anything like that. She just accused me without any reason."
" All the proofs were against you. So, don't try to cover it up," I replied and lit a cigarette.
He was going to say something when I warned him blowing the smoke in the air," You are my younger brother and act like that. Next time, if you try to provoke me then I will suspend you from your post."
" Dad will no.............. " He tried to say something when I ordered him," If you are done here then get lost. I have many important things to do."
He didn't say anything further. He gave me an angry look and left the cabin immediately.
Niyati's pov
[ " No matter what I will never leave you. If you again say that you will leave me then I will chain you in my bed," Shiv said angrily pinning my hands over my head. He is still hovering over me after making his crazy love to me.
I asked him softly," You love me that much?
" You don't know the limit of my love for you because it's limitless. You are my first ever love and you will remain my love forever," He said kissing my forehead and I hugged him tightly.
Then he said very lovingly," I have held your hands and I am not going to leave them ever. That's my promise."]
A painful humorous chuckle left my mouth when I remembered all those promises. I was a fool to believe all those fake promises. He was really a good actor and liar.
I am still thinking about him when my boss called me. I immediately covered up my disturbed expression with my neutral expression.
Well, my boss is Mr Harmeet Singh. He is a 57-year-old bald man and owner of 'Singh Enterprise'. I might be his employee but he never treated me that way. He considers me as his daughter and very affectionate towards me.
" Sir, you were talking about some important matter?" I asked him politely.
He replied," Yeah, Niyati. Actually, I have sold the company to another businessman as I will be leaving for the USA very soon. My full family lives there and I will be settling there as well."
" But, sir...what about the employee and the stu.............." I couldn't complete my sentence when he assured me," Don't worry. You and the employees will not lose their job. I have talked to the new owner and he has agreed to this matter. It's like the chairman will be changed just. Otherwise, everything will remain the same."
I took a breath of relief thinking that I didn't lose my job. This job is very important for me. I just can't rely on Ranvijay like the previous times. He has already done many things for me.
" But, sir who is the new owner of our company? May I know his name?" I asked him curiously.
He replied," He is one of the richest businessmen. His name is Shi................."
He couldn't complete his sentence when my phone started ringing. I saw the caller id and it's from my house.
I looked at him and he understood what's I am asking.
" It's fine. Go and attend the call," He told me giving his fatherly smile.
I didn't waste any time and left his office cabin. I received the call worriedly. I just hope Neela is fine.
The Next DayShivansh's povI am standing in front of the temple of Lord Shiva ( One of the Supreme Gods in Hinduism) and waiting for my mother. It's been hours since she has gone for Puja(worship) and hasn't returned yet.I didn't enter the temple for Puja as I have lost my faith in God 4 years ago. Once I used to be a great devotee of Lord Shiva but now everything is gone.Well, I came to Pune to join as Chairman in 'Singh Enterprise'. My mother came here to worship Lord Shiva. There is a big and famous Shiv temple in Pune and my mother wanted to visit it. That's why I have to bring her with me.I think I should go and check her. I don't know why she is taking so much time.I started climbing the stairs without thinking anything further. It took five minutes for me to climb all the stairs." Ouch!! Blind uncle. Can't you walk seeing properly? All the flowers are now scattered on the floor. How am I going to offer them to God?" I heard a baby voice.I just reached the temple when I b
Niyati's povI reached the office and cursed myself for being late. I was stuck in traffic for almost one hour.Sir told me to reach earlier as the new chairman is joining today. And, here I am. Shit!! I am sure sir is angry as hell." Niyati, Sir is waiting for you in his office room. The new chairman has also come as well," The receptionist informed me while I was passing the reception area.Without wasting any time I almost ran towards Sir's room. Taking a deep breath I knocked at the door." May I come in, Sir?" I asked for permission.I heard Sir's deep voice," Yes, Niyati. Come."" Sir, I am extremely sorry. I was stuck........." I started saying in one go after entering.But I couldn't complete my sentence just looking at the person who was sitting beside Sir. My whole body turned cold just looking at the person.I felt like my body has become paralysed looking at his face because the person is none other than Shivansh Raichand. Is it any kind of dream?Why is he again in my li
The next dayAt OfficeAuthor's p.o.vNiyati entered Shivansh's room holding a file and found him working on his laptop. He was wearing a black suit and looking handsome as usual. She stared at his handsome face for some time and couldn't help but admire him. She admired how he was looking so sincere. " Control yourself, Niyati. Don't fall for him again. Don't forget how he humiliated you and threw you away from his life," Niyati's subconscious reminded her. She cleared her throat to catch Shivansh's attention," Sir, I have brought the records of the new selling products. Kindly have a look."Saying that she forwarded the file towards Shivansh. She gulped down her saliva because of nervousness as Shivansh was looking at her with his scrutinising eyes.She was wearing a simple office casual and looked like a confident woman. He eyed the sindoor(vermillion) in her hair partition and the mangal sutra(nuptial chain) around her neck. He clenched his fist angrily seeing all the symbols of
Shivansh's pov" I love Ranvijay," Those three words again rang inside my head.I threw away the alcohol glass on the floor. The glass shattered into tiny pieces just the way my heart was shattered. I loved her truly giving my all affection to her but still, she chose to betray me. I still remember that day when Ma and Lily showed me Niyati's sex video with that man. I never found out who was that fucker and Niyati always denied that she slept with another person.I didn't want to believe that Niyati could do something like that but when I checked the video, it was real. It wasn't any manipulation nor it was edited. After that day, I lost my trust in women and an immense amount of hate increased inside my heart for Niyati. " Then, why are you jealous?" My subconscious asked me. I replied annoyingly," I don't know. I just can't see her with another man. She is my first love."" You still love her but remember one thing that she has moved on," My subconscious again reminded me and m
The Next DayAuthor's povNiyati was sitting in her cabin checking some files which Shivansh ordered her to check. She was engrossed in her work because she doesn't want Shivansh to taunt her and make the situation worse. She just wants to behave with him casually. Suddenly, she noticed some errors in the files and decided to ask Shivansh about them. She could easily correct them but still, she thought to ask him first. Without thinking anything further she went to Shivansh's office room and knocked there. " May I come in, Sir?" She asked politely but there was no response. She knocked multiple times but still, there was no response. She thought that he might be in his restroom. So, she decided to wait for some time. Minutes passed and there was still no response. Getting bored she decided to enter without knocking further. She twisted the doorknob and entered. Her eyes widened and her mouth hung open seeing the scenery in front of her. She blinked her eyes a few times to under
Niyati's povSitting on my easy chair I tried to relax but failed miserably. My whole mind was occupied by Shiv. His shameless acts kept repeating inside my head making my heart bleed. How can he humiliate me like that? Seeing his behaviour I doubt his love. He never loved me. If he loved me even for once then he wouldn't be doing such shameful acts with another woman in front of me. Tears stung my eyes remembering him but somehow I controlled them. " Just act normal in front of him. You have no connection with him anymore so you shouldn't be bothered by his actions," my subconscious suggested. I sighed. She is right. I shouldn't give so much importance to him. Let him do whatever he wants to do in his life. He is just a closed chapter of mine. Nothing else. " Mommy," I heard Neela calling me. I noticed her standing in front of me with a hairbrush and a rubber bant in her hands. I also noticed her messy hair and sleepy eyes. " Mommy, make two ponytails in my hair. Daddy always b
Niyati's pov" Don't worry, Ranvijay. I will be in the house just in 10 minutes," I informed Ranvijay over the phone who was angry beyond level after hearing that I worked extra hours. Well, I worked extra hours to have some extra money. Neela's birthday is coming and my little angel will turn 4 very soon. I just wanted to through a party for her with my own money. That's why I am working extra hours. He replied almost shouting," Have you gone mad? It's 11:30 p.m. and you haven't reached home yet!! Just wait for me wherever you are. I am coming to pick you up or I will send the driver. It's not safe for you to be outside at this hour. Violence against women is increasing in our country every day. So, think before you say anything."I can sense the concern in his voice for me. Sometimes he becomes overly protective of me and Neela. Orni was lucky that she had a husband like him. I am also Ranvijay's wife but we don't share that kind of relationship. We are like friends and obviously
The Next DayShivansh's povI was sitting inside my car looking at Niyati's house. I was eagerly waiting for her to come out so that I could have a glimpse of her. Last night she was hurt and I just wanted to know if she was fine or not. I gave her a day off and here I am. I started missing her already. With every passing time, I was becoming weaker for her. I tried to move on but I couldn't. No matter what I can't forget her. I hired that gold digger to pretend as my girlfriend but I became bored with her soon. So, I told her to stay away from me and never contact me again. If I ask Niyati to start afresh again, will she accept? Will she give a chance to our relationship? I know she cheated on me and I should hate her only. But, I can't. I was still looking at Niyati's house when I noticed that Niyati's daughter Neela was playing in the garden with a boy. He must be her friend. The boy was looking 2/3 years elder than Neela. A smile formed on my lips seeing that little doll. She
After another yearAuthor's povShivansh knocked at the door and a few moments later Orni opened it. He gave her a warm smile entering the room and she smiled back. " Where are your naughty kids?" He asked sitting on the bed. Orni answered giving him a glass of water," School. Before leaving they have broken my other favourite vase while fighting with each other."" Goodness! One day I will surely leave them in a WWE ring," Shivansh answered and Orni laughed loudly. Shivansh joined the laughter when his eyes fell on some papers which were on her bed. Taking the papers in his hands he looked at Orni with emotional eyes and she looked down. " You were again reading these reports!! How many times have I told you to not read all these?" Shivansh asked standing in front of her. Orni said controlling her tears," My death is near, bhaiya. Sooner or later I will die."" No, you won't. Stop talking rubbish. Nothing will happen to you until I am here," Shivansh assured pulling her into a t
After few monthsAuthor's pov" Lily and Yash Raichand are sentenced to death. The court is adjourned," The judge declared and Lily broke down into hysterical sobs. Shivansh looked at them with emotional eyes. Not with love. There was nothing but hatred in his eyes. He was fuming with rage and fisting his palm continuously. A few days ago, Lalita's trial was held too and she got the same punishment for her sins. Death. " Congratulations, Mr Raichand. You won the case," Shivansh's lawyer congratulated him forwarding his hands. Shivansh ignored the lawyer and rushed towards Lily and Yash who were dragged by the police. Lily was crying and begging to leave her where Yash was silent. Standing in front of Yash, Shivansh grabbed his collar and looked directly into his eyes with burning eyes. Shivansh clenched his jaw looking at Yash where he just looked down. Was he guilty of his misdeeds? No, he wasn't. He was cursing himself mentally for leaving Satya's dead body like that and for n
This outburst was needed for him. He needed to release his painful emotions which were eating up his soul. The constant heartbreak was butchering his soul constantly and he needed a shoulder to cry on. He needed a person to share his emotions and his pain. " Don't hold back your emotions. Cry as much as you want," Niyati cooed rubbing his back very gently. She tried to not cry but automatically her eyes welled up. Shivansh asked while his voice cracked" Why everything is happening with me, Niyati? Why one of another my loved ones are leaving me? I lost my wife, my sister and now my father!! Just why?"" Shh......" Niyati again cooed in his ear but didn't find any words to console him properly. After that, nobody utters a single word. For a few moments, Shivansh only sobbed over Niyati's shoulder and she kept rubbing his back very gently. He tightened his hold around her and she let him do it. She didn't push him away nor she flinch. Suddenly, something clicked inside Shivansh's he
Author's povShivansh was standing in front of Satya's dead body like a robot. A police officer was asking him a lot of questions but Shivansh was just silent. There were no tears, no pain, no expression on his face. He was just speechless.He noticed his father lying in the pool of his own blood. A white cloth was covering his father's body which has turned red due to blood. Police surrounded the whole area and a forensic team was examining the whole place and Satya's body. Shivansh's eyes fell on Satya's hand and he went back to his childhood. He recalled how his father used to take him to school holding his tiny hands, he remembered how his father used to feed him with this hand and supported him always. Remembering those memories Shivansh couldn't control himself anymore. " Dad," screaming loudly he tried to rush towards Satya but two police constables stopped him. This time Shivansh couldn't control his outburst and started screaming & crying loudly. Tears started flowing from
Gathering all the courage inside him, he again requested desperately," We can't change the past but we can make the future better. I know that you still love me. You just have to acknowledge it and listen to your heart for once. Give me a last chance and let me redeem myself. I will even sacrifice myself for your sake, please."This time Niyati looked at him and found his hopeful eyes staring at her intensely. She just continued looking at him and he was waiting for a reply impatiently. After some time she broke the silence and ordered," Get.....Out."Shivansh didn't waste another second after hearing her. He just stood up and came out of her room silently. He again lost every hope and decided to not bother her anymore. Till now he has apologised uncountable times and she has rejected him uncountable times. He forwarded his legs towards his room when his phone started ringing. He saw the caller id and it was an unknown number. He thought to ignore it at first but thinking something
Author's pov" How many women you have kissed till now?" Niyati questioned furiously and Shivansh was still rooted in his place looking at her with perplexed eyes. After gathering his shocked state, he answered honestly," I have never kissed anyone except you."" Liar!" Niyati spat back and left the balcony hurriedly where Shivansh continued standing like a fool. Reaching another room, Niyati sat on the bed and closed her eyes feeling embarrassed. Due to frustration, she yelled and threw away the pillow on the floor. She started feeling utterly disgusted by herself. She felt like she has no self-respect anymore for letting him kiss her. Tears started flowing from her eyes and her muffled cries started echoing in the whole room. She mumbled placing one hand over her mouth," What I have done? How can I step so low!!"" I should control my emotions," Niyati thought mentally and again felt embarrassed for kissing him. She was still sobbing when she felt someone's presence in her room.
Satya finished his saying and an uncomfortable expression appeared on Niyati's face. She wasn't understanding what to say right now. So, she kept her mouth mum. On the other hand, Shivansh noticed his father and Niyati. He also heard his father and looking at Niyati's face he understood that she isn't comfortable. So, he stepped in. " Dad, please. Don't say anything to her. Don't force anything on her. I respect her decision and you should too," Shivansh told his father and Niyati looked at Shivansh's eyes. She again fell into a dilemma noticing Shivansh's truthfulness. Satya was going to say something when he started breathing heavily. His body started shaking slightly and Shivansh panicked noticing his father. Satya sat on the nearby sofa and Niyati forwarded a glass of water noticing his uneven breathing." Dad, are you ok?" Shivansh asked Satya with his panicked voice.Satya answered sipping the water," I am fine. Just tired a little bit. I think I should go now."" Dad, stay
After one yearAuthor's pov" Yes, decorate the whole place with balloons. Specifically with blue balloons because Neela like this colour," Niyati instructed someone over the phone. The other party said something when Niyati said," Yes, the cake should be chocolate flavour. Neela loves chocolates."Well, today is Neela's birthday. She has turned 4 today and her parents are throwing a birthday party for her. Specifically, this party is too important for Shivansh since it's the first time he is doing something exciting for his daughter. Shivansh is trying to make it grand as much as possible because he wants to make it memorable. He has been busy too much for the last few days regarding this party. " Mam, Shivansh sir has taken care of the other things. You don't have to worry," The decorator assured Niyati who was sounding worried regarding this party. Niyati didn't say anything further. She cut the call and sighed. She recalled Shivansh's excited face about this party and a smile f
Shivansh's pov" Hello, Advesh. What did you find?" I asked leaning a little on the balcony door.He replied," I have talked with his neighbours, colleagues and a few friends. Everyone said that he is a good person. I didn't find anything negative about him. Araav Tripathi is a reputable doctor."" Then, why did his wife divorce him?" I asked with curiosity. Advesh responded taking a breath," He found out that his wife was cheating behind his back. That's why he divorced her."Hearing his words, I recalled my situation when I thought that Niyati cheated on me. I doubted a pure person like her and messed up everything. What an asshole I was!" Are you sure that she cheated on him?" I asked hesitatingly and he answered that he is sure about it. After talking to him for some time, I cut the call and sat on the nearby couch. Resting my head on the headrest I closed my eyes and automatically Niyati's face reflected in front of me.You must be wondering why I am looking through Araav Trip
