4 # A Nightmare and War

Samarth is working on his laptop, it's already late but he never skips his work. More than half of the day is wasted because of this wedding. So he is trying to complete his pending work. He is completely dedicated to his work and business. That's why he is called the King of entertainment. 

He checks the time, It's 2.00 am. He takes a bottle of water, but it's empty. He takes the empty bottle and moves to the kitchen.

When he is coming with another bottle, he just reaches his door and he hears a loud screaming voice, like... "No... Don't do this with me, please. Please let me go." 

The sound is coming from his bedroom. He ran inside and what he found.

Aradhya is crying badly and shouting, she has destroyed all the bedsheets, a heart made by petals everything is messed up. Her eyes are still closed and she is throwing her hands in the air and shouts, "Please.... let me go.. please, ..... No no...It's hurting. Plea.......se"

Samarth is shocked, he doesn't take the time to understand. His eyes filled with tears, he sees the painful sight of a girl, who is raped by someone last night. He runs to her and hugs her and tries to calm down her. She is sobbing.

He squeezes her, "Aradhya, calm down,...."

But she was scared, she tore his T-shirts in self-defence. 

Samarth tried to control her and she tried to escape. He tightly hugged her in his strong arms. After a minute she woke up and realized that it was a dream. She found herself in Samarth's arms. But she is too much scared, she hugged him back. Her tears are continuously drizzling. She was feeling secure in his arms and she found shelter in his tight cage.

Samarth broke the hug and gave her a glass of water, she gulped at once. 

Samarth removed his torn T-shirt. She is still sobbing, he felt pity for her. He hugged her and made her slip, he doesn't know when he slept.

Next morning...

"Dadi, Don't you think that something is changed," Sakshi said with a smile.

"Hmmm, I'm also looking at the stairs. This is happening for the first time in so many years." Dadi said while sitting on the head chair of the dining table and her eyes are stuck on upstairs.

It's 8.00 in the morning. Samarth never sleeps so long. 

"Dadi, let's check, what's going on there," Sakshi said with a teasing smile.

Both of Them shook their heads positively with the naughtiest smile and both shouted, "Let's go."

They both reached Samarth's room. They are walking without making a noise. If Samarth will catch them, they have to face his anger. They knew very well but still, they are moving to his bedroom.

To their surprise, the door was opened. Actually, Samarth forgot to close the door last night, because he was busy while taking care of Aradhya. Dadi and Sakshi thought Samarth must be out of the room and maybe he is in his private gym. They entered the room, And both stuck with the door. Pair of their eyes spread wide when they looked at the scene of the bed.

Sakshi pinched herself and said, "Dadi, Am I dreaming?" 

Dadi said, "Pinch me, because I'm sure, I'm dreaming. Samarth can never be with a girl on the bed.

Aradhya's head is on Samarth's bare and huge chest. Samarth has removed his T-shirt because it was torn. She is covered with a duvet, so her head is only visible. Samarth's hands are veiled around her body. Both are sleeping peacefully. The bed is completely messed up. 

Dadi and Sakshi can't move from there, Sakshi realised and pulled Dadi, "Let's go, Dadi. Otherwise, If Samarth will find us, he will kill us." 

Samaira, Samir and Anaya also came there, they also see them, but they are not happy with it. Anaya ran back to her room. Samaira follows her, "Wait, Anaya. Please."

Everyone can understand that now Aradhya and Samarth became one. Sakshi is so much happy for his brother but another side Anaya's heart is broken. She loves Samarth since childhood. But Samarth never loves her.

Samarth wakes up due to noises. Sakshi and Dadi run out of the room, but Samarth has already glimpsed at them. 

Due to Samarth's movement, Aradhya wakes up and found herself near his bare chest. 

She jumped out of the bed, "What the hell are you doing on the bed with me?" 

"Nothing, what the hell are you doing with me on the bed? "Samarth shouted back. He is embarrassed because his Di.. and Dadi have seen them in this situation.

They both forgot about last night, and her nightmare, In this embarrassment, they didn't remember what happened last night. She angrily threw a pillow on Samarth and pointed to him with her pointer finger, "Mr Samarth Goenka, if next time you will do something like this, I will kill you." 

"Who the hell are you? Put down on your fingers, You are in my room, slow down your voice otherwise I will kick you out of this room." Samarth shouted and turned to the bathroom. 

Aradhya's face turned red with anger because she also noticed Sakshi and Dadi. Now she has to face all the family members. It's shameful for her, that the groom's family saw her on the bed in an uncomfortable situation. She gritted her teeth and threw water from the bottle on his back. 

She realized what she did, she wanted to run out of the room, but Ravi is standing at the door.

Samarth's anger is touching the sky, He gritted his teeth, but Ravi coughed fakely to distract both of them.

Taking advantage of this moment, Aradhya ran to the bathroom. Samarth is wiping his back with a napkin and wears a T-shirt. 

Ravi can't control his laugh but he knows very well that if he will be caught by Samarth, he will be suspended. So he controls but a small smile appears on his lips. 

"What are you doing here?" Samarth growled at Ravi.

"Sorry, sir but it's urgent. I called you thrice but you didn't receive it. So I have to come here." He said and gave a file to Samarth.

Samarth reads carefully and signed the papers in the file, "It's done, release the payment of K. M. Diamonds." 

"Okay, sir and..." Ravi hesitates.

"What?" Samarth asked confusingly.

"Don't you think that..... marrying this egoistic girl, is a wrong decision?" Ravi said but now regretting his words. 

"I strongly feel like that," Samarth whispered angrily but Ravi couldn't understand what he said. Ravi left the room without any arguments.

Samarth threw his hands strongly on the table. He rested on the sofa and closed his eyes.

After some time, Aradhya came out from the closet door, She wore Red coloured silk saree with a heavy border, with a full neck covered blouse. Mangalsutra is hanging on her neck, Her wet hairs giving her a sexy look. Saree is completely covering her body, even she pinned up the saree as no parts of her body is shown, however, she is looking sexy. 

Samarth looked at her and kept looking at her, he couldn't move his eyes from her. A gasp escaped from his mouth. Aradhya is busy drying hair by the dryer. She doesn't notice Samarth, because she is worrying about Sakshi and Dadi, this was not her good impression of them, on the first day.

Samarth slapped his own head and strode to the bathroom.

Here, at the dining table, Dadi and Sakshi are laughing. They are waiting for everyone, but strange thing is that nobody is coming.

Dadi said, "Sakshi, We should send them on Honeymoon, what do you say?"

"Do you think that The Samarth Goenka will go?" Sakshi asked.

"Hmmm. So we should give them privacy at home." Dadi said.

"Dadi, When Samarth stays at home, all-time office - Office. His office and his office work." Sakshi said.

"Hmm, but we should do something," Dadi said something in Sakshi's ears.

Otherside Anaya is packing her bags. Samaira asked, "Where are you going? "

"At my home." Anaya irritated.

"Please, don't do like that." Samaira holds her hand.

Anaya cried hard and said, " Can't Samarth see my love for him? He forgot AROHI and love this bitch. Why not me?"

Samaira took her in a hug and caressed her hair. 

"I strongly believe that Bro, can never forget Arohi, He married Aradhya because he doesn't want to marry you. If he didn't marry her, next month our families will plan your and Bhai's wedding. But why did Aradhya marry Bro? Something is wrong. We will find soon." Samaira said and something is sparkling in her eyes. Evilness in he smirks.

"Do whatever you want, but for now I'm going from here. I can't see them loving each other." Anaya said and locked her bag. She moved out of the room.
