Moving out of the hospital, I went straight home. I called upon Raghav to instruct him on collecting details about Arnav Seth. I also called the ACP to verify Sapna's statement and inquired if Walia had accepted his mistakes in the statement. I was amused to know the things were sorted. I switched on the TV.
Vikram Walia, the business tycoon is arrested for foul play..
Several cases under the name of Vikram Walia, prominent business tycoon..
The headlines displayed in every channel rendered a feeling of satisfaction in my mind. I was relaxed since my company's reputation was saved. I wanted to know about the spa owner now, her involvement and reasons for joining hands with Walia.
I called Raghav again.
"Hi, Raghav. Scene is sorted but I want the details of Niyati's statement." I asked him immediately.
"Madam, this is the worst part of the case. She wasn't Walia's girlfriend. She was blackmailed." Raghav told me, leaving me sho

Niharika's POVI reached home in the evening. The weather was really pleasant and birds were chirping in my lawn. My mind seemed to be relaxed after the hectic day today. My tired body urged for a hot shower. Entering my house, I bolted the door from inside. I rushed to my room and immediately went to my bathroom.I relaxed my body as the lukewarm water drenched me completely.After a while, I came out of the shower wearing my mint colored towel. I saw my image in the mirror and admired my hair locks caressing my cheeks. I wondered if I looked pretty as I looked in the college as I began massaging my body with the body lotion. I wondered if Arpit would like me the way I am. I remembered his deep amber-green eyes and my instant urge to dive into them. I realized that the turmoil of my business is sorted and now it was time to concentrate over personal life. I mentally planned to observe Arpit and discover if he is fine for me. I mentally planned to find out if we co

Aprit's POVMummy called me to ask if I will be back. She had been waiting for dinner and I rushed towards my home. While driving back, I realized Niharika looked alluring in a loose purple Nike T-shirt and white colored shorts. I realized that I was not able to deviate my eyes from her immaculate legs and alluring lips. I urged to touch her, feel her and of course, kiss her but I controlled myself and my growing pervert ways. I wondered if she will get ready to marry me someday. I passed through a temple. I stopped and went inside. Standing in front of the idol of Shri Krishna, I folded my hands and connected with the Supreme. I prayed, "Dear god, I have never asked you anything except my sister's happiness. Today I ask you something for myself. Please God, I want to mend everything. Please help me to get my Niharika back. I want to spend my life with her."I went back to my car and drove off to my house to find my mother waiting for me. She immediately enquired, "Is yo

I wore the brown colored business suit today, the most elegant one in my wardrobe. I finished off my look with a chocolate brown lipstick and little eye-makeup. I made a bun of my bouncy hair locks. I welcomed my day with a new charm because it was a new beginning. I was starting to work over my mother's dream. It was indeed a great moment for me.Having a bowl of cereal for breakfast, I rushed for my office. I wondered when Sapna would be back.

Arpit's POVI wondered what went wrong when I was called at her office but I was astonished at her amazing reincarnation as I entered her office. Her luscious lips were embellished by her strands of hair caressing her cheek. I was dumbstruck at her beauty and it was really difficult to maintain the composure.I was genuinely impressed when she got ready to show me the labs.We both came out of her office and entered the lift to reach the ground floor. There was no one in the lift. I was enjoying her enticing look and alluring aroma of lavender deodorant. She seemed engrossed in her thoughts. I went closer to her and whispered, "I love you."She turned towards me. I got startled and moved a step backwards and my back struck on the wall of the lift. She got closer to me. I could hear my heartbeat racing very fast. She whispered in my ear, "Then win me back". She bit her bottom lip seductively and moved backwards.The lift opened and she moved out while I

Niharika's POVI rushed out of my office and went to the beauty parlor. I had an appointment with the beautician for a makeover. I was organizing a party in the evening and I wanted myself to be a presentable host.After two hours of hard work, I realized that it was worth it. I looked fantastic in a peach colored silk sari embellished with a golden border. The red colored sleeveless and backless blouse added to the charm of the seven yard cloth draped gracefully around me. My hair was wrapped up into a simple bun and a curled flick of my hair caressed my cheek. I wore my dangling earrings (jhumkis) completing my look. I was utterly satisfied with my look. I chose to wear ethnic sari instead of a floor-length gown because I wanted to see Arpit's reaction.I came out of the salon and my driver gaped amazingly, "You look beautiful, Madam."I smiled and thanked him.*****I reached the venue and I could see different eyes gawking at me. After all, my

Arpit's POVI couldn't register what happened instantly. A moment before, I was admiring the enchanting beauty of my Niharika while now we both were holding hands and escaping out of the party. My heartbeat was racing heavily and I was dumbfounded for a minute. All I could do was admire her beauty. My eyes had a great treat today as they were struck at her smiling face today. She looked magnificent in her peach colored sari. I could sense her well-toned back in her backless blouse. The sari embellished her curves gracefully and she looked like a Goddess.I was thinking about our kiss. The moment I kissed her palm, I felt satisfied. I realized my apologies brought her near me and I will never leave till my last breath. I was immature earlier but now I am mature enough to retain the priceless gem."Give me your car keys", her sweet voice took me out of the trance."Where are we going?", I asked, finding ourselves in the parking lot."Car keys", she asked,

I got into the car and ignited the car's engine.I glanced at him looking at me with twinkling eyes. I admired his side-glances and asked him, "Where shall we go?"He chuckled and said softly, "At your favorite place.""Stop staring at once", I said as it was difficult to concentrate on the road for me while those deep amber-green eyes leered upon me.He chuckled and gave a peck on my left cheek."Please stop it in the car. It's difficult to drive." I said glaring at him."You look ravishing." He whispered in my ear."Let me drive or you wait and see." I warned him.He placed a kiss on my collarbone and said, "I love you. I won't disturb you while driving."I kept on driving for a while to reach my favorite Indian Restaurant. The ride

I am thankful to have her back in my life.Today she called me unexpectedly in the office only to tell me that I couldn't kiss her till I fulfill her mom's dream.

The Strings of Love Chapter 37
Niharika's POVI wished the lord that everything should be fine as his mom opened the door. He announced, "Mom, misunderstanding is clear. Please let us in. We need to tell you."I believed he did so because he wanted his mom to keep calm. His sister, Meehika chirped from inside, "O! Thank God. Mom was upset so called us over. Come, spill the beans."We entered his home when I saw his brother-in-law Arnav sitting on the sofa. Yash was sleeping in his arms. Poor boy, he finally gets to spend time with his dad, my mind wondered. Meehika just came over and gave me a hug, "Are you fine, Niharika?"Nodding my head in affirmation, I wondered if she was the first to ask me this. My would-be mother-in-law was giving a silent treatment while Arnav had picked his son and taken him inside."Come on, sit and stay calm. I will get water for you." Meehika said, turning towards the kitchen only to find his husband bringing us some juice and snacks.I inwardly sm

Niharika's POVI was finally relaxed at the turn of events. I was fortunate enough to have Arpit in my life, I realized.The chain of my thoughts were broken, when I heard Arpit's devastated voice."I am sorry, Niharika. You had to face too much because of me. I am sorry."I moved out of the café after making the payments, ignoring this idiot completely. He followed me in the parking lot. He was in deep thoughts and I was indeed, irritated at him.I sat on the passenger seat of my car and gave him the keys. I didn't want to drive. I wanted to share his company.He sat in the car and cupped my face with his trembling hands, apologizing again."Why the f*ck are you apologizing for something for which you aren't even at fault? I won't be annoyed at you because of that psycho." I screamed at him."You trusted me without judging me at once, matters me, dear. You never gave me any chance to get annoyed. The encounter with psycho doesn't matt

Niharika's POVMy heartbeat was racing. My eyes welled up with tears as Raghav's words rang in my ears.What if he actually has a past or present clinging to him? O! Lord, not 'present' at least. I can still adjust with a past.Wiping my tears, I tried to maintain my composure as I got off the car in front of the gate of University Girls Hostel. I saw Raghav and Arpit sitting nervous in a cafe beside the hostel as Shristi reached out to call Raghav. It was already evening as the hustle-bustle of the campus seemed to be quietened.We went inside and sat in front of them.Arpit and Raghav were both looking at each other.

The Strings of Love Chapter 34
Niharika's POVI was utterly devastated and afraid of the consequences if the pictures were released anywhere. I felt grateful to the lord to have Arpit in my life. He was so very understanding and rational. He literally didn't even judge me for once. I didn't even once plead to him to listen that it's not me. It was him who consoled me saying that it's not me and things will be fine. My man is indeed the best. I sat there thinking about everything and appreciating his personality traits as he fed me the breakfast.The doorbell rang. I was embarrassed to face Raghav or anyone. I couldn't believe these people would look at the vulgar pictures of someone with my face on it. I clutched the yellow envelope in my hands which was lying on the sofa and hid it in the kitchen.Raghav had come in with Shristi. He saw my pale face and looked at Arpit with a confused expression. He sat on one of the accent chairs and said, "Madam, what's the matter?"Ignoring him, I aske

Arpit's POVI wondered who could be behind all this. What kind of storm is approaching in our lives? I sped my car and rushed towards her home. Reaching at her house, I rang the main door. I was surprised when no answer came. My heartbeat began to race and I wondered if something bad was coming up. I called her over the phone only to find no response. I called her again. After calling her thrice, she finally picked up the phone."Niharika, are you fine? Why aren't you picking up my call?" I said immediately in a worried tone. I was already shocked today."I am fine. I was in the shower. You seem worried. What happened?" She asked as she heard my voice."Open the door, I will tell." I said to her, seemingly devastating.She hurriedly came downstairs and opened the door. I could hear her footsteps. She had draped her purple colored towel around her. She placed her arms around me and asked, "What happened, baby?" I entered the house bolting the door with o
