All night he tried to take care Ashita in the dark. Cold, lonely and sleepy assailed him. He didn't know what time it was. Maybe three or four in the morning, he just guessing. The watch on his wrist seemed useless because of the dark.

He tried to get rid of the drowsiness by occasionally biting his lower lip. It helped a little, but soon the drowsiness came again. In fact he could have slept, but he didn't want to.

In the darkness, his thoughts drifted again. Twenty-two years of his life, only now did he see the future. He hoped his life on the right track. He had to take advantage of the opportunities that lay before him. May Lord Krishna grant him good fortune, by making his dreams come true.

In the future he must focus on the goal. Only by becoming a movie star could he change fate. Turn things around.

He did not have money to trade. It was not his passion, either. Nor did he wish to leave India like Raju to change his destiny. Meanwhile, back to study, it was no longer possible.

    Praveen rushed outside knowing Ashita no longer in the room. What he found outside were the occupants of the first floor who were busy rescuing their belongings to the second floor.He was confused. What happened with these people? When he came down to the first floor that he realized the flood was knee deep.He looked here and there and scanning people. Ashita wasn't seen among them.Where's the girl? He called out her name. No one turned around. He was about to ask too, but remembered that he had just moved in yesterday. How did they know her?He immediately passed through the flood, looking around the front of the building. He didn't care that it was still raining That morning people were busy with the flood. The road was no longer visible. The vehicle that was parked last night on the side of the road was no longer visible, either. He was confused.There's no way Ashita would go to her rented house in this condition. It could be that the access there or to the Doorna could not

    Zoya BV account name listed there. The figure in PP was very similar to Ashita's. But in a different appearance. This one looked like an upscale girl, and like who had a fancy car from the other day. There's not even a difference. What BV stands for? Bipasha Vijayalakshmi? It was the name the guy at the mall called?Praveen wanted to check again, but he couldn't. The account was private. It said that 'this account is private' . It means he couldn't check and see the girl's photos or posts.This could be the girl that the guy at the mall thought. But why was it so similar to Ashita Agrawal?Praveen wanted to prove with other photos. But he couldn't access this account. He could only see posts on that account if he became her follower. He had to make a friend request first.Ah, not necessarily accepted, and he would be found out if Ashita and Zoya were the same person.Praveen tried to think hard. Could someone viewing private account posts without being a follower?This was what he tho

    "If the weather not favorable, don't go back to Dharavi yet. Just stay here until things get back to normal!" Narendra Prasadh said to his daughter."Until when?" asked Zoya."According to the weather forecast, until next week!"""No way I just stay home, Dad! What about my job, over there?""Your job? Why do you think that? Your safety is more important than your job!""No way! They must need me. I can't stay here, just eating and sleeping while in Dharavi, my school is flooded, they need my help to clean up!" Zoya said.Narendra Prasadh glared at Zoya. A faint smile graced his lips. Like a mockery. Apparently she was too deeply immersed in her role in Dharavi. He still clearly remembered how the other day she had vehemently refused to be sent there."I didn't send you to Dharavi to clean up. You just need to observe their daily life. The work is just to fill your time. After all, we've already helped by buying a building and donating it to them.""But...""No! You heard what I said

    The rain became drizzle. Praveen felt his stomach growling begging to be filled. It was already two o'clock in the afternoon.He moved out of his room. On the first floor, the water had started to recede a little, as high as calves. If it rains heavily again, the water may rose again.The residents of the first floor were still on guard. Monsoon rains were unpredictable. It could just come downpour again.He walked through the flood. Even though his pants were rolled up, the hem of his pants was still wet because they touched the surface of the water. But he didn't care, kept walking. In front of the building he stopped for a moment and looked up. He wondered if in the next half hour it would rain heavily. He didn't have an umbrella, he might get drenched later. He hoped that he would not be caught in heavy rain while looking for food for his lunch.For some reason he wanted to go to Doorna Kindergarten. He wanted to know if the school was flooded too. And who knows Ashita was there.

    That fact jolted his consciousness.Why did Zoya disguise herself as Ashita? And why was she in this Dharavi? What was her hidden agenda doing this? Various questions filled Praveen's head.Praveen was stunned. So, the girl he loved was none other than the daughter of the tycoon Narendra Prasadh, not a country girl from Gondia?But how could that girl live in Dharavi? Living in the slum area, being a kindergarten teacher, and having an unpretentious appearance?He still remembered how last night the girl slept in his lap. Looked relaxed and comfortable."Praveen, can you help me taking out the chair in Mrs Fateema's room?" Harshida said waking him up."Uh, yes, of course!" Praveen walked towards the small room which was Mrs Fateema's office."Where should I lift?""Just put it together with the benches arranged outside," said Harshida. I and Santi want to tidy up the books in the office cupboard."Praveen also moved the chairs in the office room out.But his mind kept on thinking abou

    By late afternoon, the flood receded, only a feet high left. Luckily the rain had stopped earlier, but occasionally it was still drizzling but only intermittently. The clouds in the sky no longer looked dense and dark.What remains were the remnants of the flood, in the form of silt deposits. At Doorna, Praveen was still helping clean the room from the remnants of the flood. He deliberately did not come home. He wanted to help Mrs. Fateema and the other two teachers cleaned up. What a pity to see they have no help. If not him then who else? Hoping for help from other parties, say parents student, was impossible. They must also be busy with their house.You can imagine how much trouble it was to clean up the remnants of the flood in the form of sediment because of the scarcity of clean water supply. Earlier he had gone back and forth to fetch clean water from a public tank not far from the school, to clean floors that were dirty with sediment. He could not imagine if the female teache

    The coffee shop seemed busy with visitors. A cold afternoon was indeed nice to warm up with a glass of chai tea and accompanied by fried foods such as Samosa and Pakora.Anil took his place in a corner, because there was only two empty chairs that could seat two people."Sit down, don't just stand there!" said Anil to Praveen who looked transfixed beside the chair. He just believed that Anil really wanted to talk to him.Anil looked relaxed, called the waiter and ordered two glasses of chai tea. Praveen sat across from Anil."Would you like a snack? The pakora and samosa here are delicious," he offered. Praveen was starting to relax a bit, though still wary of all the possibilities. Hopefully this wasn't a trap anymore, he hoped.He just couldn't believe it. Yesterday, at almost the same hour, this man named Anil threw a punch at him. But now they both were sitting at the same table, ordering two glasses of chai tea."Don't worry! I'll pay for it as an apology for what I've done yeste

    Anil tried to call Praveen, but Praveen ignored him and kept walking out of the tavern without looking back. He didn't care that several pairs of eyes were staring at him. Anil kept calling out but in vain. Finally he let Praveen go.Anil had absolutely no idea what he had just heard. Where did the young man know Ashita's true identity? Nobody in this Dharavi knew that Ashita Agrawal was Zoya. It couldn't be Zoya who divulged the secret herself. It's risky for her because it concerned her own safety.But was it true Praveen didn't care that Ashita was Zoya Bipasha, the daughter of the Mumbai conglomerate? Of course this sounds weird because Ashita and Zoya were the same person.A young man fell in love with a girl's fake identity even though he knew her true identity? Uh, how could it be! He must had been more or less happy if it turned out that Ashita was actually the daughter of a conglomerate.Did he have a particular agenda, let's say to take advantage of the girl?Yes, at least t

Not far behind were five more SUVs carrying employees and servants.Narendra Prasadh was in the first car. He got out of the car after the hotel staff opened the car door for him.He appeared to be wearing traditional clothing instead of a suit, and that did not diminish his authority as a wealthy businessman.His wife, Pratyusha Beniwal followed after him. She also appeared to be wearing a saree with gold ornaments. Precious stone jewelry in the form of a necklace and bracelet added to the luxury of her appearance. Truly extraordinary. Then followed by her youngest son Rahul.Before entering, the graceful woman stood for a moment waiting for the next car.

    Praveen was still lying in bed that morning. Even though the hotel room was so comfortable, he had not been able to sleep at all since last night.This was a very decisive moment in his life, preparing himself to carry out the plan he had made as best he could.He had thought about it down to the smallest detail so that this plan would succeed. There should be no gaps or opportunities for him to fail.If he failed, he could end up in prison.Taking away the prospective bride who is none other than the daughter of a prominent conglomerate and the prospective daughter-in-law of the number one person in the Mumbai police?It would definitely create a scene and become national news. More sensational than the kidnapping that Zoya experienced before!If he failed, his face would adorn the front pages of newspapers and even television, not as an actor or model, but as a criminal. The career he had built with great difficulty would end tragically.No, that couldn't happen!He immediately got

    It was late afternoon when they returned from Dharavi, but nothing happened. Praveen's room was empty just like when Sunil visited earlier. There was no sign of him coming here. Nothing had changed at all.It was just that Zoya felt a different atmosphere when she saw the room. There was a longing that enveloped her, imagining when she and Praveen were alone in the room.She remembered the time she slept over during the heavy rain that caused flooding due to the moonson. Even though the lights were out and it was raining outside, she felt at peace in Praveen's arms all night. The man really took good care of her.There were indeed many memories in Dharavi. If not with Sunil, she would have gone to school to meet the teachers there, Mrs. Fateema and her two other friends, Harshida and Shanti. Or if necessary she would go to her rented house.Had everything remained the same or changed? She really didn't know."Where have you been? Why are you home at this hour?" Mrs. Pratyusha asked wh

    A surprise for Zoya, but not for Sunil as they headed to the AMA office. A large billboard on the side of the road caught the attention of passersby.An advertising billboard starring Praveen. Apparently the advertisement had spread to several strategic places.Zoya was happy to see the billboard. She wanted to take out her cellphone and take a picture of it as memorials. But she didn't because didn't want to offend the man beside her. She didn't say a word, even trying to divert attention by pretending not to see it."Damn it! I don't want to see that billboard!" said Sunil."Isn't he the person you want to meet now?""Right, but not with his poster!""Okay! Just look away!" said Zoya indifferently. She tried not to look at the billboard as if it wasn't important.Sunil's gut feeling told him that she deliberately pretended unwilling to see the billboard. He was sure, deep down in her heart, she was happy to see it. It made Sunil even more annoyed.If only he could find him, he woul

    Sunil still stared at Zoya with an uncertain look in his eyes. His intuition said otherwise. The girl still had a secret that she kept tightly.Sunil was sure that Zoya knew where Praveen was. They were still in touch until now.Even though their wedding day was getting closer, he felt that something was going to happen.He had to make sure that it didn't happen. He had to find that man right now!"I have to meet him, Zoya!" said Sunil.The beautiful girl frowned, but said nothing."Help me find him!" he said in a deep, commanding voice.Zoya took a deep breath."I told you, since I was kidnapped, we've only been in touch by phone, only a few times. I don't know where he is now. All I know is that he lives in Dharavi. Isn't it clear what I said?""I know you're lying!""I don't know how to convince you anymore!
