*Jhanvi Pov*“Jahnvi?” I heard someone calling and turned to see my professor.“Yes, maam?” I asked smiling.“Can you do me a favor? I have to meet the head of department but I have a work at the hospital.” She requested.“What should I do?” I asked, smiling, feeling relief that there was no mistake from my side regarding presentation which I thought she will talk about.“Give these files to Dr.Raj. He wanted me to give him a list of people who can be taken under his wing.” She replied and added, “And don’t peak.”I chuckled and took the files before leaving the campus and walked a few minutes. I reached the hospital and walked inside.“Good morning, Jhanvi.” Receptionist greeted me and I greeted her back.I walked to the elevator and reached the floor before knocking on the door. Hearing the reply from the other side, I opened it and walked inside.“Ah! Jhanvi!” Dr.Raj said with a smile.I smiled back and placed the files before him. He glanced at the top file before nodding at me.“

*Jhanvi Pov*Oh god! I thought, feeling his gaze, which is filled with anger and tried to concentrate on the words spread over the book in my hands.I thought he was some old man and I can sit calmly to study while he grumbles. But here some other person is there.“I would like to leave this hospital. Do start my discharge papers.” He said with a sharp tone and I glanced at him with an incredulous look.“What is wrong with your language?” I asked frowning.“Do not try to cross me. And do as I wish.” He said glaring at me.“Look, Mister! I am sure you have to do something important for wishing to leave early, but it is for your own good.” I said in a soothing voice to which he narrowed his eyes.“I am perfectly well.” He retorted.“Good!” I mumbled and continued to study.“I am ordering you…” he started to say, but I cut him off shaking my head.“I have exams starting within two days and I have to study. I would like you to be silent and do as I wish.” I said, throwing his own words ba

*Jhanvi Pov*“We need a party, Jhanvi.” My friends said when we walked out of the exam hall.“I want to take a rest. Tomorrow onwards I have to go for internship.” I mumbled smiling at them.“We all are going after one week. But why are you joining tomorrow only?” one of the asked frowning.“You should understand. It is Dr.Raj and you know who is that.” Another said when we reached out of the campus teasingly making me blush.I am fed up with telling them there is nothing like that between us. He feels brotherly way towards me and nothing else.I just stood there not commenting anything and then we heard someone clearing their throat.We turned to see a person leaning on the car. While everyone have a curious look, I have a look of shock covering my face.“What are you doing here?” I asked bluntly.“You know him?” one asked while another added, “Where were you hiding him?” and many more questions were thrown.“I will meet you guys later.” I mumbled and walked near to him while they le

*Jhanvi Pov*I smiled looking at the door in anticipation. When will he return? He should be here by now.Oh god! I wish I can share this news with someone else after him. But… I trailed off my thinking, shaking my head. He is enough for me.My prince! I thought and grinned, seeing the way knob being turned.“Jay! Thank god you are here. Any more minutes, I would have gone mad.” I babbled rushing near to him only to stop in my tracks.“Is something wrong?” I asked, feeling my grin slipping away.“Let us sit first.” He replied in a blank tone.I nodded, walking towards the couch and sat down with him sitting before me instead of beside me.“I need to go back.” He simply started.“To the office?” I asked him, frowning feeling confused.“No! To my home.” He replied.“Ok!” I mumbled, not knowing what to say.Whenever, I brought the topic of his family and ask anything regarding them, he always went distant which made me leave the curiosity all together.“When are we going?” I asked him gi

*Jay Pov*“She is awake?” he asked and I nodded still frowning.Why is she so disgusted with me? Yeah, we met under not so nice situation with me threatening her to give me the Kalpana address and first time with her revealing my so called life style near Kalpana.She is the one because of whom I lost any chance I may have with Kalpana but still why is she so disgusted to even look at me?“You must me happy, Mr.Jay.” he added, smiling and walked outside with me following him.I remembered her look and immediately shook my head, knowing well it doesn’t matter how she feels about me. She is fine and now I can leave her.“I am sorry about the mistake from the nurse.” He added when I stayed silent.“How can the nurse be missing from the whole floor? What if someone needs her?” I asked him still feeling angry at that matter.“Here she is.” He mumbled and we saw the nurse sitting at her place.“Where were you?” he asked, frowning at her.“I went to the washroom, Doctor. Is something wrong?

*Jay Pov*“You should always stay with her if I am not in the house.” I said to the maid looking at Jhanvi.“Always?” she asked and I nodded without looking at her.“Do not worry about the pay. I can hire a nurse, but I do not want another person in this house right now.” I replied narrowing my eyes at the eyes of Jhanvi staring blankly.“Should I also just keep on staring at her all the time, Sir?” I suddenly heard the curious question making me frown and I turned to see the maid frowning at me already.“Of course not! She is not going to disappear in thin air.” I replied shaking my head.“I just thought that as you didn’t look away from her as if searching for something.” She mumbled.“If she starts talking or anything immediately call me and… and do not talk to her about anything.” I said and she nodded.“And do not worry about missing the works of other houses. Before leaving the city I will recommend you to as many as I can.” I added remembering her other work.“Thank you, Sir.”

*Jay Pov*“If I don’t let her think, then how can we know anything?” Doctor Anee asked and I opened my eyes to see her sitting before Jhanvi holding her hand.“Don’t let her think the forbidden.” I replied.“Forbidden? What is forbidden?” Jhanvi asked ,staring at the doctor and me.“You should have taken her to the doctor instead of here.” Anne said.“Do not worry because even if she bounce back, she will wake up again, but if I had not brought her here then I wouldn’t be able to know any people who can take care of her. When I find them, then I can go to the place where I was going for.” I pointed out.“So, to release the burden you brought her here?” Anne asked frowning and I shrugged.“And she is also not comfortable living in my house.” I said to which Jhanvi glared at me.“What was I doing in this man’s house?” she asked giving disgust looks and I rolled my eyes feeling used to that while Anne looked shocked.“What is your name?” the questions started and I frowned listening to t

*Jay Pov*“She… she is moving, Sir.” I glanced up from the newspaper to see the face of the maid with shock covering it.“Really? Is she talking?” I asked her.“No! She is like before only but moving her face and hands by her own.” She replied and I frowned.“Okay! You gave her breakfast?” I asked, standing up.“Yes!” she replied and I nodded, walking away to reach her room.Now what is this new thing? I thought sighing and walked inside to see her turning to lay on her side.“So, you are back to normal?” I asked, feeling relief, but she kept quiet, staring at the wall.“You are doing it on purpose or is it something else?” I asked, sitting on the chair beside her.She flicked her eyes to me and just stayed like that while I waited for her to say something. When she didn’t, I cleared my throat feeling awkward.“You there?” I asked, waving my hand feeling weird this time.“Jhanvi?” I called and placed my hand on her cheek, for which she didn’t do anything.“Well, now as my hand is not

*Nicole Pov*“Thanks for your help, James.” I said, smiling at him when he finally took out the last box from my home.“No problem! But these are a lot of stuffs that are getting transported.” He commented when I followed him outside.“Yes! I don’t know whether they will be fine until they reach India.” I mumbled worriedly.“Which place in India?” he asked when the delivery guy started loading the boxes into his van.“Kolkata! You can visit anytime you want and you will love the place.” I replied and signed the needed documents.But the van started moving and immediately stopped. I frowned and glanced before it to see a two people standing before it.“What’s going on?” I mumbled and started walking towards them along with James but got dragged to the side suddenly.“Hey!” I shouted and paused when I realized who it is.I stared at him in shock while he is staring back with a blank expression, but I can see him radiating his anger for sure.“Who are you? Let her go right now.” James or

*Ali Pov*I know hearing my words everyone will think the same thing. However, I just don’t want two people to think in that way.I stepped towards her, but saw Harsha running away towards the kids. I was about to move towards him, but Jhanvi stopped me and walked in his direction.“Nicole!” I said, walking near her, but she is staring at Harsha and nowhere else.“What is going on? Why is everyone serious?” we all heard a new voice and turned to see an elderly couple walking towards us.“You guys returned two days early. Was the trip not good?” Mridula asked, walking towards them.“We were just missing home.” The man replied and glanced at me.“You must have taken after your Mother. I can’t see much of your Father in you.” He said looking directly at me.“Excuse me?” I asked him, frowning and everyone looked confused.“You know his Father?” someone asked and he nodded.“You remember I was talking about my old classmate who is the king of a small island. It is his Father, I was talking

*Nicole Pov*“He seems to be really excited about this trip.” Ali whispered after sometime while I was still reeling to the fact that they both forced me to be in this plane.“It’s a given reaction. He must be missing his Mother. It’s been a few months since he visited her, right?” I asked not glancing at him, but stared at Harsha who is sitting before us while looking outside.“And I still think I shouldn’t be a part of this trip.” I added and he completely ignored me.“I want you to meet my Mom.” Harsha simply said and I frowned at him.Why does he want me to meet his Mom? Will it not be too awkward for everyone if I joined these two? If it is just his Mom, maybe it would be fine, but the plan Ali and I made was longer than that.“You know everything and you are still fine with it?” I asked in a whisper so that Harsha will not hear.“Actually, everytime we go for a visit I feel kind of a third wheel. And this time I have to explain something which would make them angry at me as my F

*Ali Pov*“Wait!” Nicole shouted and moved to stand before the door while my hands are shaking with rage.“Move away, Nicole!” I ordered her trying to breath but she didn’t move an inch.“Don’t do this, Ali.” She pleaded with her eyes, but stood there stubbornly no matter how much I am pleading with my own eyes for her to move.Today I am going to kill him and end his twisted ways. I carried the scars for all his plans, but I will not let him play like this with my son.How dare he trap Harsha in that way and torture him for so many days? He is still hurting because of my Father and I can’t calm down.“He deserves to get hit by me, Nicole.” I said not understanding why is she protecting him.“I know! But I don’t want you to waste your energy twice.” She said when I reached the door.“What do you mean?” I asked finally holding the knob by pushing her a little.“Didn’t you hear what I said?” she asked back and held my hand before I can turn it.“What?” I tried to turn it without hurting

*Nicole Pov*“No!” I simply replied when he asked me again.“What do you mean no?” he asked frowning.“No means no, Ali.” I replied, closing my laptop while he continued to pace before me.“He is mailing you.” He pointed out.“Yes! And I am mailing him back. But I can’t come between you two, Ali. He is your son and you need to ask him all this stuff.” I explained.“I know he is my son, but he is not talking to me properly like he is talking to you. I need to know what went wrong to make it right. I was feeling dejected all these months thinking I will never be close to my son, but now I know there is a way and I can’t wait anymore.” He sat on the bed and covered his face like he lost everything.I walked towards him not knowing how to explain the situation, but then I know I have to try and make him understand.“I am an outside person, no matter how well he is talking to me. With a snap of fingers he can stop talking to me and no one will say anything about it. But if you try to under

*Nicole Pov*“What are you doing?” I asked him, but he just continued to throw my clothes around the room.“What are you doing?” he asked back finally clearing my packed bags.“I can’t stay here, Ali. I was really hesitant and now he doesn’t like you to date. You saw what happened at the airport.” I explained, picking up my clothes.“I saw that, but you need not leave. Maybe he just needs some time.” He pointed out and I ignored him.I don’t know how did I felt at the airport, but I know making Harsha accept me will be very difficult. How can I force him to accept me?“Harsha is my son, Nicole. But it doesn’t mean I will be with the only person he will accept. He can take his time, but I want you with me.” He continued and pulled me towards him holding my elbow.“What you are saying is correct, Ali. But with the experience I had, I can’t take such step.” I mumbled looking away.“You are not your step-father. I know you will care for Harsha.” He pointed out and this time I don’t have a

*Nicole Pov*“He must be scared.” I scoffed at her words and continued to work without saying another word.“Fine! How dare he say those words and leave you? He doesn’t have any common sense. Happy now?” she added the last words laughing.“I don’t have any common sense. That’s why I called you.” I replied, moving my hand to cut her call.“Wait! I am really confused about your problem. Are you mad at him for those words or because he rushed away not giving you any time to react?” Nev asked leaving all the teasing from her tone.“I don’t know!” I mumbled and stopped working.“Well, ask him when he returns. Don’t stress yourself like this. But just decide whether you want those words to be true or just be simply some silly words.” After suggesting that she hung up and I just sighed.“I will definitely take his opinion in this matter, but for me if it is not you then it will be no one.” I can still remember each and every word he uttered that day and just left before I can understand the

*Ali Pov*“What do you mean that project is canceled?” I asked my secretary frowning.We just returned yesterday and I started planning my trip to Harsha’s school, but my Father took another step to cause problems.“His highness was adamant about this and because this is of simple matter none of the council allowed any time to deal about that.” He explained and I know right then that he did this to want something from me.“It is of simple matter at present, but later it will be a huge problem. I can’t let him stop the plan for this water plant.” I mumbled to myself and stood up to go and deal with him.While walking towards his office, I started thinking how to make sure he doesn’t put any objection to this plan and just let it happen.“Father! I need you to not stop this water plant construction.” I stated the moment I was allowed in his office room.“Tell me why should I?” that’s all he asked and for the next two hours I explained the details of the plant with the help of the notes

*Nicole Pov*“What are you doing here?” I asked, reaching him and he finally stopped his conversation with Nev’s Grandfather before glancing at me.“Don’t say it! You both are talking about history again.” I mumbled and he just smiled at me while Grandfather laughed.“He has good knowledge about our history. You made a good choice.” Saying that he walked off while I snorted hearing his words.“You are my good choice because I was wishing to learn history?” I asked sarcastically and he just pulled me into his arms.“Don’t be jealous, Nicole. We will be leaving today night and I just wanted to let him know how much I admire that he taught me about the things which I can never learn reading any book.” He explained pressing his lips to my cheek.“And I think you don’t have any right to be jealous after all the time we are spending at night in secret.” He whispered the words making me jab his ribs.“If anyone knows about that then Yash and Nev will be in trouble.” I pointed out as a warnin
