It was the morning after such eventful night....Erica got up she looked around none was there . After a while she came out of her bed got ready and went to the dinning area .

Smriti randhwa was sitting there Erica went to her and touched her feet . She held Erica and stoped her from doing so, the she said " I really thought anay loved you , I don't know what suddenly happened if you had came here after marrying him it would have been a different day , but now things are something else , you are married to Kabir....I really feel sorry for you!!! It's going to be very tough, I m really concerned for you!!

Erica was not able to understand what she was saying so tried to change the topic and said aunty do I have make something it's the first day!

Smriti smiled and said none has any right to direct anything that related to Kabir....you do whatever you like I don't have any role in any of it...take care ' with that she went

Erica just got rooted where she was standing after a while of contemplation she thought of making halwa because she didn't wanted to disrespect the tradition

She went in the kitchen , everybody was looking at her with a very strange expression....if she tried to ask anything about Kabir all of them behave very weirdly...one of them finally said that they are very afraid of him and they are not allowed to discuss anything about him...

Erica felt strange...but she made the halwa and presented it to everyone on the dinning table his father in law tasted it and praise it while Kabir had his basic breakfast and not even looked at it...

He went to office....Erica was looking in his direction when smriti came to her and while placing a hand on her solder she simply said " aadat daal lo "(make it a habit)

----------------------------------------------

It's already been a month since Erica and Kabir got married!!!

In this one month Kabir became the MD of Pinnacle group of industries something which he wanted from a long time ....he was marching towards his sole dream of taking over the company entirely!!!!

Everything was going great at work and that's the only thing that mattered to him!!!

There is absolutely no change in his life after getting married ...there are no calls , no interactions nothing between them.. sometimes he even forgets that he is married and how indifferent they both were with each other ....Kabir usually would come late by the Erica used to sleep ....so they don't even see eachother often...the only change was sometimes Kabir used to sleep in his own room on the same bed with her or otherwise he used to sleep in his office room or even in his penthouse alone!!!

Erica on the other hand accepted the fact that this marriage has no meaning for him so she should stay away from him. The thought of being tied to him because his father used to bother her!!! She sometimes used to feel like an unwanted guest in his room!!!

Erica thought of completing his management degree but she was afraid of going back to her college everyone knew that she is in a relationship with Anay and now when she is married to his brother....it seems very weird... because of judgements she thought of completing her degree with distance learning!!

----------------------------------------------

A month just went like that , in the morning when Kabir , rajeshwar and smriti were having breakfast suddenly a voice came behind

"Mom!!! I am back" there he was Anay was standing with a few languages and a bright smile on his face...as if nothing happened....Kabir didn't even look towards him.

Smriti went towards him and shouted 'where were you Anay ??? you eloped from your wedding day and now you came like nothing happened. How could you??'

'O plz mom!!! You knew I didn't want to get married you forced me ...but in the mean time I felt like I didn't want it so I just went with my friends to Thailand. I knew you guys would sort out everything behind me , so now I came back he said shamelessly with a smiling face.

Rajeshwar randhawa also rebuked him but he remains indifferent, anay took an apple and sat on the dinner table while listening to their rant but being extremely indifferent.

Suddenly he saw Erica coming down the stairs he choked seeing her and started coughing.

On the other hand Erica saw Anay casually sitting on the dinning eating apple she couldn't believe the man who destroyed her life was so relaxed!!

She came down and looked at his face ...she remembered the hurt he caused and tears started brimming her eyes!!!

"Why is she here mom??" He said

'when you ran away she and Kabir got married' his mom said

Anay was dumbfounded after a moment of silence he walked towards Erica who was crying and watching him with disgust!!!

Before he reached her a strong hand held his wrist..he looked down and saw Kabir who was eating salad casually had held his hand that too so firmly.

'kabir leave my hand I have to talk to her ' he said

'she is my wife...and you know very well I don't like people messing with my things ,so just take your step back and don't come near her. Understand!!!' Kabir said and then he stood up and took a glance towards Erica who was crying after seeing this Kabir felt like as

if someone had poured cold water on him!!!!

----------------------------------------------

Kabir was sitting in his office but his thoughts were racing towards Erica's crying face....he thought Erica was crying for Anay and this thought was making him restless.. he didn't know why?

Previously he didn't know much about Anay's marriage but he knew that Anay was dating a girl and they both are in love so they are getting married!

This marriage is not something very important to Kabir but he didn't like Erica crying for him... because weather he likes it or not she is his wife and she can't be crying over someone else!!

Kabir was in his thoughts when Saurav his PA came and said " Sir!!! Today we have a meeting with Malhotra's about the textile project when should I schedule it??"

Kabir didn't answer still in thought

He called him again "sir????"

"Hmm" Kabir's trance broke .

Saurav repeated the same thing and said "sir if you don't mind me asking is everything alright I have been working with you for so long I never caught you off guard on office hours!!!"

"Ohh...Nothing like that..and about the meeting schedule it on the evening..be prepared we have to crack this deal ok!!!" Kabir said

"Ok! sir" saurav said and left.

"How can I think about anything else

Other than business!!! I don't care about anything else other than this . And about the girl Erica , it's not that she is cheating on me ...she is married to me and in her heart what she thinks is none of my business...I should focus on my goal not this non important girl" Kabir thought

----------------------------------------------

Erica was sitting in her room thinking about the morning event and Anay and Kabir's behaviour...while Anay has absolutely no regret about what he has done to him....

Kabir called her "a thing" as if he just brought her from somewhere...when he stopped Anay from talking to her it was not because he didn't want him to hurt her again but because he was showing that now he has got his possession on her!!!

She felt like she is some toy to them

"Erica!!!"

Suddenly Smriti's voice came she looked up and saw smriti standing near her...

She sat near her and said "look Erica whatever happened between you and Anay is a thing of past , and now that you are married to Kabir ... I don't want any kind of drama in my house...he is my only son and he is very dear to me ..I don't want you to behave weirdly around him in anyways because if any new drama will unfold ...we can't even imagine what Kabir will do. So I request you please forget everything and let my son live in the house without any problem!"

Erica was shocked and hurt at the same time shocked by the way smriti just disowned Kabir and hurt because she does not have a bit of sympathy towards her and all she cares about is her brat son!!!

But leaving her feelings aside she said " don't worry aunty , I will not cause any problem to you ..I have no proble

    Erica was thinking about smirit's words....from the very beginning she felt something was off between her mother in law and Kabir but today when she called Anay her only son she felt there is something she doesn't know about!!!! The way everyone is so intimidated by him...she wanted to know about Kabir but whom she can talk to...none tells him anything about him!!!! She decided to know about him . In the evening when Erica came down stairs she got to know everyone is out of the house for some inauguration, so she went to make a coffee for herself when Sarita tai came and said "bahu give me the cup I will make it"....Sarita Tai is a 57 year old woman who works for the randhawa family for decades. "No , Tai I will make it myself let me make a cup for you too and don't bother I come form a middle class background, I'm habitual to do house chores " Erica said "But now you are Kabir Baba's wife you are not an ordinary girl" saying this she took the cup and made the coffee for both

    I was just beginning to drift into sleep when I felt Kabir shift behind me, his body pressing into mine. His arm snaked around my waist, and he started tracing his nose, down to my cheek, and then my neck. His breath was warm against my skin. “Kabir, stop…” I murmured, moving slightly away. “Tomorrow is Kavis’s exam. You know how stressed he gets—I have to wake up early.” “Yrr, he’s just a five-year-old kid. What stress you are talking about!! about.” Kabir groaned. “Erica, it’s been three months. Not even once…” His voice took on a pleading edge. “Please, baby.” I sighed, trying to keep my patience. “Kabir, please just sleep. Next week, pakka.” "Next week?" His voice darkened, and I felt him stiffen. A second later, he pulled away completely, turning his back toward me. I stared at his rigid shoulders, rolling my eyes. “Kabir… have you gotten angry?” I whispered, reaching out to hug him from behind. He didn’t respond, just tried to shake off my hands, but I didn’t let go. Eventu

  • It was meant to be him   Epilogue

    After Anay returned home from the hospital, recovering from the bullet injury, Rajeshwar's fury knew no limits. In his eyes, Anay's betrayal was unforgivable-planning to murder Kabir was an act that shattered any hope of reconciliation. Enraged, Rajeshwar threw Anay out of the house, leaving him with nothing. Without a second glance at his family, Anay left in anger, seeking solace far away abroad, never once reaching out to even his mother, Smriti.Smriti, lost in the agony of losing her son, fell into a darkness she couldn't escape. The pain of separation consumed her, spiraling her into depression and anxiety. As the days passed, her health deteriorated rapidly. Her heart ached for the son who had become a stranger to her.Meanwhile, Kabir found joy in the soft glow of Erica's pregnancy. She was blossoming, her body slowly changing as the months went by, and Kabir, in his joy, became a pillar of care and concern. His protective nature over her was unwavering, but there was a kind o

    The night spent on , each minute feeling like an eternity as she cried, the weight of Kabir's words pressing down on her like a suffocating blanket. She was terrified of losing him, terrified that the fragile bond they had built was on the verge of shattering.Erica buried her face in her hands, her fingers trembling as she recalled the pain in Kabir's eyes when he had spoken. The magnitude of what he had said loomed over her like a dark cloud, and she felt utterly lost. But amidst the despair, a flicker of resolve ignited within her. She wiped her tear-streaked face with the back of her hand, inhaling deeply to collect her strength. She couldn't let fear dictate her actions any longer.----------------------------------------------Next morning ------------------------Kabir stood under the shower, the water cascading over him, yesterday night was hard for him ....he was feeling so frustrated and vulnerable ..so much going on in his mind so much so that in a way he was trying to was

    "You think I cheated on you?" His voice was low, hoarse, as if it had been a long time since he'd spoken the words. "I never needed to do that, Erica." He took a step forward, his gaze piercing hers. "If I wanted, I could have anyone I want. But I wasn't interested in anyone... apart from you."Erica stood frozen, her heart racing as she tried to make sense of the storm of emotions in his eyes. Her hands trembled at her sides, the weight of his words suffocating her."And if there had been someone else in my life," he continued, the bitterness in his tone cutting through the air, "I know you think I could trade anything for business, but the truth is, Erica... I would've never married you if I was having an affair. Never." His voice cracked slightly as the words fell from his lips, the rawness of his confession making her feel small, helpless."You know," Kabir's voice softened, a distant, painful memory creeping into his words, "My dad loved my mom, or so he always said.

    Erica's pov----------------I lay on the bed, my eyes fixed on Kabir's profile as he watched the movie . I had been waiting for what felt like an eternity for him to acknowledge my presence, but he didn't...my mind wandering to the tension between us.Slowly, I began to inch my way towards him, my movements deliberate and cautious. I didn't want to startle him, but I needed to break the silence that had been suffocating me for weeks. I slowly placed a hand on his torso, my face inches from his neck. I could feel the stiffness in his body, but he didn't say a word. He tried to remove my hand, but I held firm, my heart pounding in my chest.I leaned in, my nose touching his skin, and began to give him soft kisses near his ear while muttering "sorry" over and over again. I knew it was a risk, but I was desperate to reconnect with him, to make him see me, to hear me.Suddenly, Kabir's voice cut through the air, his tone firm but controlled. "Erica, stop it!" he saidI didn't back down.

    Erica's pov ---------------------As I blinked awake, the familiar haze of sleep dissipated, revealing the stark emptiness beside me. Kabir hadn’t come to bed again, and the realization sent a surge of irritation through me. Just then, I caught sight of the relentless downpour outside. I swung my legs over the side of the bed and padded toward the balcony, the sound of rain drumming against the pavement growing louder with each step. The sky was in a shade of gray, heavy clouds swirling ominously, with flashes of lightning in between that illuminated the world for a split second. As I was watching A crack of thunder followed, sending a shiver down my spine, and I took a step back to inside, heart racing.I made my way downstairs so that I could ask for Kabir . As I descended the final few steps, I spotted him near the entrance, his hand resting on his waist, deep in conversation with the driver.

She winced, pressing her palms against her temples, where a pounding headache throbbed with intensity.The memories of the previous night flickered in and out like a faulty light bulb. Just as she was beginning to calm herself, a soft knock interrupted her thoughts."Good morning, mam!" a cheerful voice chimed as the maid entered, a bright smile lighting up her face. She placed a tray on the bedside table with a gentle clatter.Erica squinted at the tray. "What is this? And where...where is Kabir?" she asked, her voice shaky as she examined the plate of toast and the glass of lemon water.The maid hesitated, glancing down at the floor as if searching for the right words. "Mam, sir went to the hotel site. He asked me to give you this lemon water. He also said to give you this medicine if your headach

    The car pulled up to the bungalow parking lot, and Kabir stepped out from his side. As he reached the front of the vehicle, Erica hurried out as well and took hold of his hand. "Kabir, please listen to me! Just this once, baby... I’m begging you," she pleaded with a tone of urgency. "Erica, it's already very late at night , let me go and sleep please ," he replied, attempting to move ahead removing her hold but something made him pause. He glanced at her, his eyes narrowing. “Also, I’m very glad your ankle healed so fast,” he added, scratching the back of his ear while glancing at her injured ankle that had been sprained just moments earlier.Erica gaze dropped to her ankle, and she immediately attempt to lift it while feigning a wince of pain...ouch...no..no...it still hurts..He turned away, shaking his head as he walked towards the entrance of the bungalow.

He was dressed in a sleek black shirt and jeans that fit him just right. every detail of his attair was perfect. She leaned against the doorframe, watching him in silence for a moment before stepping closer. "Are you going somewhere?" Erica’s voice was laced with curiosity, but Kabir didn’t even acknowledge her presence at first. His eyes remained focused on his reflection as he adjusted his shirt, then bent down to slide on his shoes, all the while whistling a carefree tune.Erica raised an eyebrow, the question lingering in the air. “Kabir, I’m askingyou… where are you going, dressing up like this?”Kabir didn’t answer Instead, he stood up, still whistling, as if he
