"Riya's point of view,"It wasn't simply a kiss; it was a declaration of my love for Harsh. Our lips were moving faster, and my brain had entirely shut off. The more I felt for him, the more painful it was to lose him. I wanted to convey to him my anguish at being apart through this kiss.I did not know when the tears ran from my eyes as I kissed him. We stopped our kiss when we both ran out of oxygen. Harsh's eyes were filled with tears when I opened my eyes. I have only seen him cry once in my life, and it was when I was tried to leaving him alone to travel to another city.What might be the source of his tears today? He has forgotten about me and moved on with his life. He reached out to wipe the tears off my cheek. I felt a peculiar sense of relief as I felt the warmth of his palm. My hands extended in front of him as if to wipe the tears from his heavy eyelids."Sorry, Harsh. I didn't want to betray you. I tried everything I could to stop myself, but I'm not sure what happened to
"Riya's point of view,""Open your eyes, please. Harsh." I Couldn't decide what to do when I saw Harsh, who was covered in blood.What had I done? He had constantly asked me to stop, and I had ignored him. This would not have happened if I had listened to him. What if Harsh lost his life? It is not possible. At all costs, I will happen nothing to him. His heart is beating. But witnessing his blood all over the place tore at my mind.What should I do in such a situation? I couldn't see anyone who could assist me. Harsh was hit by a car that drove away without stopping.Harsh's wife and children will hear that I am to blame for what has happened to him. I only had one person in mind and that was Ankur."Please help, it is an emergency." As soon as he picked up the phone, I said,"Riya, what happened?" After hearing my disturbed voice, he inquired."Highway. Harsh. Accident. Outside City." Because of my sobs, I couldn't say over one sentence."Riya, stop crying and tell me exactly where y
"Riya's point of view,""Riya, did you make any arrangements for blood?" Ankur walked over and inquired as soon as I hung up the phone."Yes, he will be here shortly to donate blood.""Who? Who are you referring to?""Rachit. He has an AB-negative blood type." I exhaled deeply and said,"And what has he requested in return?" Ankur inquired, his voice trembling."He hasn't yet disclosed his terms.""How are you going to accomplish this without even listening to his demands?""So, what else could I possibly do? Nothing is more valuable to me than Harsh's life, and I will offer him anything for his blood.""Riya, I understand your predicament, but knowing that man, he will almost certainly demand something from you in exchange for the blood, which you cannot provide.""I understand, but if something happens to Harsh, I'll have a hard time surviving.Did you let his family know about it?"I inquired, my gaze fixed on him."No, not just now. I think we should wait until the doctor completes
"Rachit's point of view,""Riya, where are you?" I wrote the message and texted it to her.I've been waiting for her for how long? She eventually agreed to meet with me. I want to claim her as my own. And to gain her, I've taken whatever route I thought was best.I'm not sure why she required my blood group so urgently or for whom. She was so frightened that she agreed to put her dream project's share in my name. But whoever he was, he was incredibly precious to her, which is why Riya fell so readily into my trap. After so many years, I'll get another chance to see Riya's wildness today.I haven't missed a single opportunity to be closer to her since she returned to India, but she continuously disappoints me because of her ego. But not any longer. I'm not the minor COO of her vendor company this time; instead, I'm her project partner.Riya, no one, not even you, can stop you from becoming my tomorrow.The doorway jolted me out of my reverie."How long have I been waiting for you, and
"Riya's point of view,""Riya, good morning."It startled me to find Rachit in front of my eyes as soon as my eyes opened in the morning. That meant me and his last night... oh god, what have I done? But I had agreed with him. I had to finish the deal now."Good morning. Can I return now?" I inquired as I rose from my bed."Riya Last night, I was a bit of a jerk. I didn't know you were so much in love with Harsh." I studied his face while listening to him.It impelled me to wonder how Rachit understood this, seeing the serious expression on his face. I tried for days to persuade him I loved Harsh, not him, but he was not ready to accept it. What happened when he suddenly accepted this situation?"However, what's the point of my love? I made the same mistake I made in Shimla years ago with completing the contract I struck with you last night. Whatever happened last night was not my intention, but I can only regret it now.""Relax, Riya, you don't have to feel guilty because nothing hap
"Harsh's point of view,""What exactly do you want to know from me?" She is still attempting to conceal the truth from me, although she knows fully that anytime she tries to lie in front of me, I am already aware of her lie."I'd like to hear the truth from you. Will you tell me the truth now, or will I continue to blackmail you in the name of selling the land?""No, you won't be able to blackmail me in the name of the land, since I'm no longer interested in purchasing that land from you." Her voice sounded as if she was fighting to keep her pain from surfacing."Tell me what's going on, Riya." I said this while holding her hand in mine."No, if I tell you, you'll pass judgment on me." She told me about the fear she had hidden in her mind."It is not the first time that I have ever passed judgment on you.""True, but...,""But why don't you trust me now when you used to effortlessly express everything in your heart with me?""Our relationship isn't the same as it used to be.""Why has
"Harsh's point of view,""Will you tell me the truth now, Riya?" I'm sure she's hiding something, but there shouldn't be any reason for her to hide anything from me anymore. "No, Harsh, there isn't anything like that; I'm not concealing anything from you." She gazed at me after removing her head from my chest. But it did not fix her gaze on me; instead, she was occasionally drawn to my shoulders and occasionally to my hands. Observing her peculiar actions, I had the impression that she was concealing a major truth from me and that I would have to do whatever it took to find out the truth. "Riya, you need to go to the hotel and rest; you've been with me at the hospital since last night." I needed to meet with my P.A., so I wanted to leave her alone for a while. By calling him here, I may learn the truth that Riya is concealing from me. "No, I'm not going anywhere without you." She continues to demand as if she were a child. I don't want her to be away from me for even a second, but
"Riya's point of view,""Riya Why are you staying quiet? Please respond to my question." I'm not sure what I should say to Harsh, who is sitting in front of me. How can I inform him about the condition Rachit has imposed on me in exchange for his blood? I might even tell Harsh about the first condition, but how can I tell him about the second condition he's put in front of me? However, this moron detective informed Harsh that I had gone to a hotel room to meet Rachit while inebriated? Even when I walked out of that hotel room, I was in dire straits. Will Harsh believe me if I tell him the truth? Will he believe me if I tell him that nothing like this happened between us in the hotel's locked room that night? At any cost, I don't want to lose him again. However, I'm concerned that if I tell Harsh about the deal I signed with Rachit, he'll abandon me. "Riya, you're making me angry now. I've been pleading with you to tell me the truth and not keep anything from me, but you refuse to
"Riya's point of view,""Riya, why are you wasting so much time getting ready today? Poor Harsh, have been waiting for you for so long." Sheetal walked up to me and said,"Because my wedding is today, I had to get ready for it, including applying my makeup." I responded as I adjusted my earrings. "Riya, I think you look stunning today. May God keep the evil eye away from you." Sheetal slipped a small dot of kajal behind my ear and murmured, picking up the kajal from the dressing table. "Now that Harsh has already committed theft, no one even dares to steal Riya from him. Am I correct, Riya?" As he walked inside the room, Rahul said. "I promised Harsh that he would be the first to see me dressed as the bride, so why are you still standing here? Get out of here." I responded while covering my face with my hands. "Riya, you did not accept my proposal; at the very least, you should have given me this right." I listened to him and could not stop giggling. "You no longer playfully fli
"Harsh's point of view,""Harsh, what exactly are you doing here?" Seeing me here, Riya is the most surprised person in the room. "I'm here to dispel some myths around Rachit." I responded while seated in the conference room's empty chair. "What do you mean?" When I noticed Rachit's confused countenance, I felt a great sense of relief. But aside from Rachit, everyone on the board was staring at me in shock. And from the way Riya was gazing at me with her curious eyes, she was not even blinking. "I'm going to call security right away to get you out of here because you may not meddle in our company's affairs in this manner." He gave me an evil-eyed stare. Because of listening to him, I was not in the smallest bit furious at all—because if he knows the truth; it doomed all of his hopes and aspirations to fail. After hearing what he said, I remained silently observing the situation in front of me without responding. "Harsh, please explain to me why you are here." Riya was becoming mo
"Riya's point of view,""How dare Rachit talk crap about you? Where are you driving me? I'll just show him what I mean." I was finding it very challenging to take Harsh to the hospital. I would not have brought Harsh to this party if I had known that he would respond to Rachit's remarks in this manner. "Enough is enough; you are now silently accompanying me to the hospital, and I will not put up with any more of your nonsense." I glared sternly at Harsh. He had just left the hospital a few days prior, and in this circumstance, seeing the injuries on his hand, I was concerned about him. He was gushing blood from his hand. As a result, his body was already running low on blood, and he didn't need to waste any more of it by spitting it out in fury. After all, whatever is taking place, I did everything to save his life, so how will it work if he continues to endanger his life in this manner? "Riya, why are you crying now?"Although Harsh and Rachit's argument causes my ire, Harsh's
"Riya's point of view,""Riya, are you certain you're attending Rachit's party?" When Harsh saw me getting ready for the party, it startled him to see me at all. I said, applying eyeliner to my eyelids. "Yes, of course." "How are you going to handle that man in such a civilized manner? Have you forgotten what he did to you?"I know he has cause for anger, but I must still work to make sure that he does not mistrust me by following his instructions to carry out my plan."Harsh, I remember everything and have forgotten nothing, but it is improper to be personal while conducting business. I also had to go to his party because I am his business partner." I said, finishing up my makeup. "Well, if that's the case, I'll accompany you, so you won't have to go alone to that party. Beyond this, you won't challenge my choice because it is definitive." He announced the outcome while collecting his tuxedo from his wardrobe. "Do you not feel that you are dominating too much?" I asked, raising m
"Rachit's point of view,""Welcome, Riya. All I did was wait for you." As soon as she walks into the meeting room, she immediately creates positive energy in the room. The scent of fresh roses might ease any person's exhaustion emanating from their bodies. "What type of urgency has arisen for you, Rachit, that you wanted me to be here so quickly?" She fixed her piercing eyes on me. I wanted to tease her further when I saw how angry she was and had a crimson face. My choice was perfect, but I was unfortunate in that I could not understand her love. I'm still incredibly remorseful about the time I broke Riya's heart. Maybe today Riya and I would be together, and my child would also be here if I hadn't married Shilpi to protect the family business. But all I can do is regret it. Riya has lived her life with Harsh rather than me. I did all in my power to get her back in my life, but I can no longer see the love that I once saw in her eyes. The only girl in my life who turned down Rac
"Riya's point of view,""Riya, I miss you." He said, holding me in his arms as soon as I got in front of him. "I could not bear to be apart from you." My arms went around him with the same force as his. "Have you taken your medication yet?" I asked while keeping my head in his chest. "Yes." He responded in a quiet voice. After hearing his low voice, I knew he had lied to me. "I am aware of how negligent you are of your health."I remarked while slapping his shoulder. "Sorry, I forgot to take the medicine." When I saw how freely he was smiling, I realized that he still had many of the same habits. "If you made a mistake and are still laughing about it from on high, it's time for you to take some medicine." I said in a commanding voice. "Riya, you must learn to treat me with respect since I am your future husband and not an employee of your company." He answered by pouting like a child. I pulled his cheeks and whispered, "I wish you were one of my employees." "I'd rather not wor
"Riya's point of view,""Please pardon me. Riya, I erred when I stole your dream project from you." In front of me, Rachit is pleading with his hands folded. "Take this: I'm returning all of your company's shares to you." I was going to reclaim the file from his hands that held the shares of my company when I suddenly heard a strange voice in my head. What's the volume of the noise surrounding me? And the noise is only getting louder. What makes this sound so familiar to me, though? Oh shit, I just realized that this is the sound of my mobile phone's irritating alarm clock. I must have dreamt then.And do you believe Rachit will return to your dream project? In a straightforward manner, was it genuinely able to do so? It is only imaginable in dreams. I was being ridiculed by my subconscious for believing my dream to be true. Even though I know well that Rachit will not, under any circumstances, return the shares of my company to me, I still don't understand why there is still some
"Riya's point of view,""Harsh, what are you referring to?" After hearing him, I had an odd impression that he had some sort of plan going through his mind. But what? I must be aware. "Riya, please refrain from posing questions to me. I will tackle whatever needs to be done right away in my style." He had a certain level of determination in his voice. What's going on in his head, though? He has recently become more serious than ever. I've always seen him in a jovial mood, so I was afraid to see him with so many serious looks. "Kindly explain what you're talking about. If you're are not telling the truth about me, I believe they shall soon see me laying by your side on an empty hospital bed." "Oh, Riya, you are being such a jerk." He refuses to tell me what is going through his thoughts even after I have repeatedly asked him to do so, and even then he accuses me of being impatient. "Okay, Harsh, if you believe that, then I will tell you I will not ask questions now; you take care
"Riya's point of view,""Riya Why are you staying quiet? Please respond to my question." I'm not sure what I should say to Harsh, who is sitting in front of me. How can I inform him about the condition Rachit has imposed on me in exchange for his blood? I might even tell Harsh about the first condition, but how can I tell him about the second condition he's put in front of me?
