Roohi's POV. Last nightWe came back from Viren Bhai's party. It was a good party, but when I got there, I was feeling a bit guilty as Vihan had called me earlier and wanted to be with me. But as instructed by bhai I refused to meet her. Bhai had instructed me never to be so keen on meeting him. In fact, I must show that I am least interested in meeting him, as I have other more important things in my life. Vihan seemed very desperate to meet me, and it increased my heartbeat beat, but I shook my head to get rid of those thoughts and told him that I couldn't change my program. I was shocked when he even asked me to take him to a party with me. He had never done that till now. Why was he behaving like that? Was it my bhai's magic?? Well, I had to collect every ounce of willpower in me to say that I couldn't take him there. I could not explain it to my brothers. He sounded very disappointed. Aww... Sorry Vihan but I can't refuse anything to Ron bhai. I went there but was a bit upse
Roohi's POV I finished my breakfast and I went to the hospital. When I reached my department, I saw another big box of assorted chocolates, with a card attached saying_"How can someone look so pretty, so sensitive and sensible, yet so cute and adorable at the same time? So a sweet gift for a sweet angel. I am going crazy... So are you ready to meet me? If yes, please change your DP on your Instagram account, and use the picture of yourself in the red dress you were wearing yesterday. I will come and meet you very soon."Oh my God!! I was shocked to see that the admirer knew that I was wearing a red dress yesterday. This was getting too much... Shall I talk to Ron bhai about it?? If I talk to anyone else, they will start roaming around me like my bodyguards, especially Raj and Sujal. No!! Just then vihan came in. He looked a bit serious today; he frowned as soon as he saw the box. And without saying anything he pulled the card out of my hand. I could see his jaw and fist clench
Roohi's POV"Okay, fine," he admitted, grinning. "Maybe I helped the universe along a little."I knew it!! I shook my head, laughing softly. "You’re unbelievable, Vihan.""Maybe," he said, his grin widening. "But you have to admit, it was pretty entertaining."I didn’t disagree... So I nodded. “You were enjoying that, didn't you?” I asked him. He grinned, “More than you’ll ever know, buddy.” “You’re impossible, Vihan.”“Impossibly charming, you mean,” he said, winking at me.I rolled my eyes but couldn’t hide my smile.Tell me about your date last night." I changed the topic, as I wanted to see his reaction. " It was great!" He shrugged. Liar!" Was it anyone I know?" I asked. " No, you don't know her. " "Oh okay. Well, I have to go for my rounds. " I said and he nodded." Me too. I have surgery to assist my Dad. Will talk to you later. But do not respond to this person. Throw everything out. Wait, give that to me; I will do the honor." He said firmly. "Bye, Vihan! All the
Vihan's POV I was losing my mind because of what happened an hour ago. Roohi was upset with me and was not even talking to me. She yelled at me because of that man??? I was looking for her to ask her if she would like to go and meet Gauravi as she was back. I wanted to know her story so that we could help reduce the tension between Mihir and Gauravi. They both were our best friends... Just then, I saw Roohi talking to someone on the phone, but when I realized that she was talking to none other than Krish, I got angry. I proved to her that the man was not worth talking to, so why was she entertaining her? He asked her to come out with him and she refused his offer... She should have disconnected the call immediately, but she kept talking, and then she said, "Yes!" I lost my mind thinking that she agreed to go out with him as she could not say no because he was persistent to take her out and then she again said, " Yes, of course!".I took her phone and threatened him. She got annoye
Vihan's POV Why nooo! She has a right to get settled and have a family life of her own. My inner voice argued. I was annoyed. Go away!! I yelled at my inner voice. It didn't reply. Was I falling for Roohi? No, you are already in love with her. Will you shut up?? I do love her but as my friend. Great!! Then start planning for your best friend's wedding, Roohi's family is looking for a suitable groom for her. Why don't you go and leave me alone? Aww.. I will not leave you alone even if Mihir, Gauravi, and Roohi get married to their life partners and leave you alone. Garv seems to be a nice man, isn't he?Ughhh!! No! She is not getting married to that man. Then, name one person to who she can get married. Maybe Mihir, but he was in love... Anyway, he is already married. So convenient for you. Name another person who is good for her according to you. Don't you have anything else to do? No!! I am here to make you realize what you want. You want Roohi. No! I don't... She is my
Vihan's POV We’d barely glanced at the menu when her phone buzzed. She glanced at the screen and froze. “Sujal bhai?” she murmured, her voice laced with surprise. She excused herself to take the call.“Hello, bhai? … I’m at a party. What? Really? Why didn’t you tell us you were coming?… Oh, okay. Please stay there; we’re coming back. Bye, see you in 20 minutes.The moment she disconnected the call, she looked apologetic. “Vihan, we need to go back. Mamu and his family have arrived, and they’re calling me home.”What?? No!! “Roohi, we’re already here for dinner—”" Vihan we need to go back... Mamu and his family have come, and they want me to come. " She replied. " But we are here to have dinner... " " Oh... I am sorry, Vihan. But we need to go..." She looked apologetic. " C'mon Roohi, You can meet them anytime; they live in Delhi itself. Lives barely 30 minutes away from your home. We need to talk, it is important." I said. But she got up." I know all that, but Mamu is calling m
Vihan's POV We reached her house, and after dropping her back, I was thinking of reversing the car to go home when I saw a car pulling in. It was him. Garv. My jaw tightened as he stepped out, holding flowers and gifts. What the hell is he doing here? “Oh, so this is why you were in such a hurry to come back,” I muttered bitterly.I swear... I wanted to...“I didn’t know he was coming,” she snapped.Garv approached with a wide smile. “Roohi, you look gorgeous. My heartbeat just spiked.”Wait!! I will treat you once and for all."You certainly have some medical issues. Do some exercise man. Your heartbeat increased in walking just 10 steps, build some stamina, man; you are so young, not even married yet. How will you manage... You will have to keep your wife happy as well... You know what I mean, don't you? " I said. Garv shot me a glare, but Roohi stepped between us, cutting off any further exchange. “Come inside, please,” she said, and glared at me, her tone clipped." Bye, Dr...
Vihan's POV On the other hand, Roohi and Garv ate without issue, so I knew this was Ron’s handiwork. But I forced myself to eat every bite, even as my stomach churned in protest.But I wouldn’t give him the satisfaction of seeing me falter. I looked at him, he had a wicked smirk on his face. I smiled at him and winked. "Wow! I am so overwhelmed that Ron is trying to make me feel so welcome. I want you to share this with me as I am so touched. " I said with a smile, offering a cutlet to him. " I would have loved to... But I already had more than enough snacks as I was starving when I came back from the office. I know how hungry you must be, please, I insist that you finish all this. You see, my mom and Chachi are both fabulous cooks. You must finish it or they may feel bad." He said. Devil!! Satan!! I ate every bite with a forced smile, ignoring the burn in my throat and the twist in my stomach.Ron looked astonished that I was eating it, he was sure I would not, but I could do
Vihan's POV Next morningI was losing my mind, and I found myself pacing the length of my mansion, replaying every interaction I’d seen between Siddh and Roohi. It wasn’t that he was overly attentive, but he did seem to go out of his way to include her in conversations. Was I overthinking this? Or was Siddh hiding something?I called Mihir, he picked up the call." Hey, what's up?" He asked. " Where are you? When are you coming back? " " I am back, we came back last night. What happened? You sound anxious. " He asked. " Mihir, we need to talk; something is very serious; I am going mad. I need to ask you something. " " Sure come over to my office. " He said and I drove to meet him. He was waiting for me. " What is the matter? " He asked. I told him about the stalker and the gifts, cards, messages, etc., and also how I caught the man who delivered them. He was shocked to know that. " This is more than serious, Vihan. We must tell her family about it; it is not a small issue; what
Vihan's POV " I hope you are not angry with me now. I know Mihir is very upset with me. I will apologize to him when he calms down, but at least you should try and understand that he would be much happier with Tami as she adores him. I never loved him that way, he was always just one of my 3 Best friends." " Are you happy now? " I asked though I already knew the answer to the question. "I am at the top of the world." She replied with a genuine smile and I hugged her. " Can I ask you something?" I asked. Anything!! " “Gauravi,” I began nonchalantly, sitting beside her. “What’s the deal with Kabir?”Her eyebrows shot up, and her lips curled into a mischievous smile. “Oh? What’s with the sudden interest in Kabir?” she teased, her eyebrows wiggling. “Tired of chasing every girl in the city? Are you thinking of switching teams?” I rolled my eyes, but her teasing didn’t deter me. “Very funny, Gauravi. Just tell me what you know about him.”She ignored me, clearly enjoying herself. “
Vihan's POV I took the package inside, my heart pounding.Once I was alone, I tore the wrapping open. Inside was a white dress and an envelope.I opened it, pulling out the card.The words inside made my blood run cold.“I want to see you... Let's meet. I know there is no one special in life, so I want to be that person in your life. Wear this dress for me and, click a picture, put that up as your social media profile. I will come and meet you."I crushed the card in my fist, rage bubbling inside me.This wasn’t just admiration. This was a warning.Someone was watching Roohi. Someone who thought he had a claim on her.And I wasn’t going to let it go.Returning to the delivery man, I shoved the crumpled card into his hands.I asked the guard to look for any kind of identity card, he found his Adhar card and driving licence I told him to take it and took his phone number I told him to report to me as soon as he got any such package again.He nodded quickly, clearly terrified. “I’ll l
Vihan's POV Next morning It was early morning, and since I was too determined to catch that delivery man or stalker, I got ready and reached the hospital by half past Six. Once again, I hid myself and had a backup ready to catch any delivery man or stalker. In about 30 minutes, I saw someone approaching the department. He didn’t carry the tell-tale uniform of a delivery man or a florist. Everything about him screamed he was up to something wrong, he looked suspicious as he wasn’t walking like everyone else. He was sneaking — eyes darting nervously, his shoulders stiff, like he was carrying the weight of guilt.The man seemed to be in his late twenties, dressed casually in jeans and a dark blue hoodie that hung loose over faded jeans and a cap pulled low to shield his face. But it wasn’t enough. His movements gave him away. His gaze darted down one hallway, then another like he was searching for something — or someone. His left hand twitched at his side, and his right was grippin
Vihan's POV I grabbed a plate and started loading it with food, hoping it would distract me from the ridiculousness of the situation. But then, as if the universe wanted to test my patience further as if the situation wasn’t bad enough, Siddh picked up a piece of kebabs and offered it to her. “Roohi,” Parshav said, leaning closer than necessary, “You have to try this. It’s divine, the best on the menu.”And she took it? Did she actually let him feed her? Why?? Was that the last kebab in the party?? I stared, my grip tightening on the spoon I was holding. Did I accidentally walk into a historical drama where men fed women kebabs as a declaration of affection? Because this wasn’t normal.Siddh wasn’t far behind. “Try this stuffed naan, it’s perfect with the dal.” Here, let me get you some.”He reached over to her plate like it was the most natural thing in the world, and I swear I saw red.“Oh, how thoughtful,” I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm. “Maybe you should feed her too. Yo
Vihan's POV“Roohi, you must let me show you around Bikaner sometime,” he said with a dazzling smile. “The palaces, the traditions—it’s a world of its own.”“Oh, that sounds wonderful,” Roohi replied, her eyes lighting up.Wonderful? Really? What’s wonderful about being paraded through the old forts? And if she really thinks that's wonderful, I have those too, probably better ones, they are not even dusty as some of them are converted in hotels, the rest are preserved. I will take her around each and every palace and fort my family owns. “Roohi,” Parshav said, leaning in with all the princely charm he could muster, “you really must visit Bikaner. We host the most exclusive polo matches, and the royal gallery has some rare artifacts that I think you’d love.”“Oh, that sounds amazing!” Roohi said, her face lighting up.Amazing? I almost choked on my drink. What’s so amazing about horses running around? If it was just about showing off wealth, I had more cars in my garage than he had h
Vihan's POVEveryone was dancing, even Mihir was dancing with Tami now, for a man who claimed that he had nothing to do with his wife, was glaring at every man who looked her way or dared to dance with her. Even I got those glares; well, I was only trying to see if he felt anything for her or not. And I also wanted to distract myself as otherwise I was going mad, watching Roohi dancing with Siddh and Parshav, so I did what always came naturally to me, flirting. By the time the dance was over, and I came back, Ron had asked Tami to dance with him while Mahi asked Mihir. I saw Roohi looking at them and smiling when Ron finally swapped the partners. I went to ask her to dance but she said that she was tired and hungry. I felt disappointed but thought that we could dance after having something for a snack or dinner. But just then that... Man came and asked her to dance with her once again. Again?? Why? I had not even danced once with her, I was not going to get her away from me. But I
Roohi's POV "Hey!" Vihan’s voice brought me back. "What are you thinking? Come on, let’s dance."I scrambled for an excuse. "Er… I’m a bit tired. And hungry."His brows furrowed slightly. "You’re hungry? Let’s go grab some snacks or food then."Before I could respond, another voice cut in."Dr. Kapoor, may I have the pleasure of another dance with you?"I turned to see Dr. Parshav standing before me, his hand extended and a charming smile on his face. He’d joined the hospital recently, and while he was kind and courteous, I knew this wasn’t just a casual invitation if he dared to ask me to dance again later in my brother's presence. "No," Vihan said sharply, stepping closer to me.Parshav’s smile didn’t waver. "I wasn’t asking you. Unless, of course, you’re also Dr. Kapoor?""No," Vihan retorted. "But she’s tired."Parshav chuckled. "Ah, nothing to worry about. Roohi, if you’re too tired to dance, you can step on my feet, and I’ll do all the work. Besides, I insist. As a new member
Roohi's POV. The music started flowing for the couples to dance. The older generation got aside, talking in their groups while Raj bhai and Myra bhabhi were busy in their world as usual, and Ron bhai and Mahi were talking with Tami, Siddh, Sri, and Parshav. I was thinking of joining them when Ron bhai asked Mahi for a dance and they both went to dance Raj Bhai and Myra Bhabhi followed them. I loved to see how good they all looked, being in love and lost in each other. I saw Mihir's Mom signalling him to dance but he was in no mood to dance. Just then Sri came to Mihir and asked him to take Tami for a dance. " I am a bit tired. Maybe later on. " He said to avoid dancing with her. " In that case, do you mind if I dance with her? " Parshav asked all of a sudden stretching his hand in front of her.Mihir was shocked. What a fantastic idea!! I really like this man. Tami shook her head. Oh no! I wanted to see how Mihir would react. But the very next moment... Megha Aunty placed Ta
