Sidd was standing on the road one day when a car swept past him. He sighted Rani at the back of the car.She had a handkerchief tied to her mouth which made her voice not be heard. Upon sighting her, Sidd took to his heels, he ran after the car. The car later started speeding faster. After running after the car for a while, he got tired. He stopped to catch his breath. While on it, Rani called him.“Rani, are you okay? What did they do to you?” he queried worriedly.“What are you talking about?” she asked from her room confused. “Who did what?”“I just saw you being taken away in a car.”“What are you saying, Sidd?” she asked. “I haven’t even left home this morning. Maybe you were just hallucinating.”While making the call, a car tried to run Sidd over. Fortunately for him, Ranveer was around. He tried calling him to get off the road but he couldn’t hear him. Ranveer ran to him and pushed him off the road. The call hung up immediately. Sidd was surprised when the car zoomed off on the
Sidd is dead? My heart jumped out of me and then dropped back down inside. I didn’t want to think evil. I will run mad.“Sidd, what are you doing?” I cried holding him close tightly. “Come on, Sidd, don’t die on me, please,” I sobbed bitterly while Ranveer was just concentrating on reaching the hospital at any cost.“Hey, you are choking me,” Sidd commented and I gave a relieved smile. I pulled him closer to me. I can’t ever lose Sidd. I will die along with him. When we got to the hospital, Ranveer called the attention of the nurses. They took Sidd inside and then to the operation room while I and Ranveer stayed back.“Stop crying, Rani, he will be fine,” Ranveer pacified.I hugged him while still crying.“Stop crying, okay?” he fondled my hair. “Nothing will happen to him,” he assured.We both sat down later on while waiting for the doctor to come out of the operating room. The doctor took out the two bullets and treated him. The doctor came out an hour later. I and Ranveer l
In Sanjay’s home, Amita was in her room wearing a long face when Sanjay walked in.“What are you doing here?” she questioned with a hint of anger in her voice.“I’m sorry, Amita,” he apologized touching her on the shoulder. “I shouldn’t have raised my voice at you.”“It’s okay,” she accepted. She couldn’t be angry with her brother for long. She is just that easy. “I just don’t want you to get involved in things that will bring you problems,” she stated.“I have heard you. Cheer up now, okay? I want to take you shopping today,” he said.“Really?!” Amita exclaimed happily, jumping up on the bed.“Dress up quickly, okay? I will be waiting for you in the car,” Sanjay said with a smile.“I will be ready in a few minutes,” she stated enthusiastically as she sprung up from the bed and Sanjay went out. She dressed up some minutes later and went to meet Sanjay.“How do I look?” she asked as she spun around in her beautiful flared gown.“You look as charming as always,” Sanjay complime
When Sidd woke up, he found himself tied with a rope to a chair in a securely locked room. He tried to wriggle free but couldn’t. An hour later, the knob of the door turned and someone came inside.“You?” Sidd uttered certainly not surprised as he saw Sanjay. “What exactly is your problem? Is it by force to make someone fall for you?” Sidd questioned boldly.Sanjay walked close and sat down on the bed, and said, “Let’s just say, what I want is what I get.”“Really? Well, no matter what you do, one thing is clear, Rani will never fall for you. Not even death can separate us, jerk,” Sidd declared.“Okay, you don’t have to be in a hurry to die because once I kill you now, I will make Rani mine,” Sanjay articulated. “Let’s see if your wandering soul can come back to take Rani away from me,” Sanjay added.“You don’t know the kind of bond we share, Sanjay that’s why you are underestimating my words,” Sidd enunciated.“Okay, lover boy,” Sanjay supplied standing up. “Let’s see about tha
Later on, Manu went to visit Amita at her home.“Hello!” Manu waved her hand as Amita opened the door.“Welcome to my humble home,” Amita welcomed giving Manu a friendly hug.“Thank you, Amita,” Manu said as they went inside. “Your home is so amazing. Do you live here alone?”“Of course not, I live with my elder brother and some workers like that. What can I offer you?”“Nothing, I’m fine,” Manu declined as she was seated.“Are you sure?”“Oh, yeah. Come on, entertain me with pictures. I mean your family album.”“Sure, I will be right back,” Amita said and went upstairs to bring her family album. She returned some minutes later with the album and she sat down to show Manu every of her family members.“Manu, where’s the bathroom? I’m pressed,” Manu said some minutes on.“It’s upstairs, come on, I will take you,” Amita offered.“You don’t have to, just direct me and I will get it.”“Oh, OK! When you reach upstairs, turn left, the bathroom is over there.”“OK, excuse me,” Ma
Two days later, I was just pacing up and down in the living room, the big day was today and I was overwhelmed and filled with much anxiety. I was stuck with the thought of seeing Sidd when the doorbell rang. I went to get the door and I saw a lady with a large gift box. She said Sanjay sent the gift. I collected the present, thanked the lady, and head on to my room. I reached my room, sat down on the bed, and unwrapped the present only to be faced with a bridal lehenga. It looked beautiful, how I wish Sidd sent it not that scum. I felt like burning the dress but the note in it says I should wear it to the event. I had to do everything Sanjay says. At the moment, I received a text from Sanjay specifying the event’s address. I dressed up and drove to Sidd’s house with my mom. When we got there, the family was ready and waiting for us. Shekhar and Milan arrived after us. I recapitulated the plan once again and everyone understood. We headed in different cars to the event. The unspecifie
I rode with Sidd in his car. It took us thirty minutes to reach our destination. It was a special garden with a small flamboyantly designed house in it. The place looked more like a wonderland. There were many colorful flowers. The atmosphere was cool and pleasing. I could hear the sounds of birds singing cheerfully.“Where is this place?” I asked in wonder.“It’s a special land for relaxation. I normally come here whenever I’m bored or wish to be left alone,” he responded with a smile.“It’s so amazing!”“Can we go inside now?” he asked and I nodded in affirmation with a smile.When we entered the room, my eyes darted across the room in amusement. It was colorful and beautiful. I felt like staying there forever without any problems.“Do you like the place?” Sidd asked.“I love it. It looks like paradise on Earth,” I stated excitedly moving around the room. I kept on checking out everything in the room.“Come on!” he said climbing onto the bed. I joined him and we both lay dow
A week later, Sidd was dealing with some papers in his office when he was notified by the secretary that he had a visitor. He permitted the secretary to allow the visitor in. After the call ended, he heard a knock on the door and permitted the person to come on in. The visitor entered and he beheld the presence of all radiant Radhika Rai. He stood up to welcome her. After exchanging pleasantries, they sat down for business. After the business discussion, she asked him out. Her reason was to know Sidd more. Sidd had to accept. They both went out. They went to a bar and ordered a drink. After drinking and chatting for a while, Radhika became drunk. Sidd had to take her home since she had told him her home address before. After he dropped her off, he left for his home. When he reached his room, he picked up his phone to call Rani and saw ten missed calls. I was in my room, looking dismayed. I have been calling Sidd. Where the hell did he go to? Why wasn’t he picking up his calls? Just
Our journey might not be a perfect one, but it’s ours. My life with Sidd isn’t perfect, but it is the most beautiful experience. When you’re in love, there’s nothing worth not fighting to stay together. We discovered a treasure from our hatred. Now it doesn’t matter how we started, all that matters now is our future. I’m certain it’s going to be bright, more colorful. I pray not to encounter any challenge henceforth. Even if that happens, we will fight it together. I belong to Sidd. We belong to each other. He is mine, I won’t ever let anyone take him away from me.Author’s note 💖🌈🌅I am super excited to have completed this story. To all my readers who were able to read to the end, thank you so much.

I was busy in my office, working on some files when Mr. Arijit entered.“Hey, beauty!” he greeted me with a broad smile while working with me.“Good day, boss,” I responded, lifting my gaze on him.“I have a surprise for you,” he said.I smiled. My boss was fond of surprises. All his surprises were always precious to me. He walked to my side and I stood up. “What is the surprise?” I asked eagerly.“Close your eyes,” he said. Without hesitation, I closed my eyes. “You can open your eyes now,” he commented.I opened my eyes. My surprise vanished into a look of shock. My boss was on one knee with a ring. A proposal? How?“Will you accept to deal with my flaws, share in my joy, and celebrate my success stories? Will you be the woman I wake up to see every morning? Will you be my woman, Rani?” Mr. Arijit proposed. I was dumbstruck. What should I say? Just then, the door creaked open. Sidd walked in, holding a bouquet of rose flowers. He stopped at the door, staring between me an
The next day when I returned from work, Chandni came along. She was holding her pink teddy bear. “Hey, baby,” I smiled, taking off my shoes. She came to sit beside me. “Mommy, are you still fighting with Daddy?” Chandni asked. I looked at her abruptly. “Why do you ask, baby?” “Because Daddy told me you two aren’t on good terms yet. He said you are mad at him.” I smiled. “Daddy is just assuming, baby, we are not fighting,” I lied. We are fighting. “If he wronged you, please, forgive him, Mommy. Daddy is a changed person now.” “It’s fine, baby, but we are not fighting,” I insisted. Sidd is crazy to tell my daughter such a thing. He wants to use her to get to me. “Then be happy with him, okay?” Chandni said. I smiled reassuringly. The following morning, I was rushing out when Mother stopped me. “Hold on, Rani,” she said. I stopped in my tracks and looked at her. She walked closer to me she placed her palm on my shoulder. “Is the ga
The following day, I walked into my boss’s office. He had summoned me. “Good day, sir,” I greeted. “Good day, dear, have a seat,” he said. I smiled and sat down on the opposite chair. “First and foremost, thank you for allowing your daughter to come along to the outing. I’m very much obliged,” Mr. Arijit appreciated. “I should be thanking you, boss. Chandni was happily going out with you. She enjoys your company and that was relieving.” “I’m glad she did,” he said, pulling out a locker. “Here, I got you a gift,” he presented a small wrapped box to me. “Wow, thank you,” I smiled, taking the box from him. “Can you open it now?” “Oh, yeah, sure,” I agreed and began unwrapping the box. I opened it. It had a beautiful gold necklace in it. Small and expensive. It was the latest necklace, coming new into the market and I have been wishing to get it. Now my boss got it for me. Awesome! “You like it?” “I love it. Thank you so much,” I smiled.
A few days later. I went to meet my boss in his office. He was standing close to the window, looking through it when I entered. I stopped at the entrance.“Boss?” I called. He looked at me. “Here, I brought the file from Karen’s Ink firm for you to sign. They were satisfied with our presentation,” I stated, walking to him.“Okay, put it on my desk,” he said. I put down the file on his desk and turned to go. “Wait, Rani,” he said. I halted and looked at him. He moved close to me. He stood in front of me, staring into my eyes. I felt itchy all over. Why was he staring at me? I looked down, feeling queasy. “Can I ask you a favor?” he asked. “Huh?” I looked at him surprised. What favor can I possibly offer my boss? “What is it, sir?” I asked.“It’s your child,” he said. What about my child? What did she do? Will I lose my job again? “I saw her picture on Facebook. She is adorable,” Mr. Arijit stated, walking away from me. “She looks like you, cheerful and vibrant. C
At the Sharma’s mansion. Sunia was seated in the living room, staring into space. She was gloomy. Veejay came along from outside. He just returned from the office.“Hey, sweetheart,” he greeted. She wouldn’t answer him. He understood. Sunia hasn’t been herself since their last visit to the hospital.“What does that mean?” she had asked the doctor. Her heart thumbs up to her throat. She was already sweating.“I’m afraid, Mrs. Sharma, you might not be able to have a child of your own anymore,” the doctor announced.“Ow…!” she exclaimed, with the way her heart flew out of her, she fainted. Due to the unnatural way, she lost her pregnancy, she lost her womb with it. Only a miracle can give her a child of her own now.“Sweetheart, why are you like this?” Veejay asked, moving close. She glared at him. Without a word, she stood up and headed upstairs.At night, Sunia lay down on the bed, facing the ceiling with her arms crossed on her b
My mother-in-law was in the living room. Sidd and the call girl walked down to her. She stood in surprise. I shuffled downstairs. Thank God Chandni was still sleeping. What would I have told her?“Greetings, Mother,” Sidd saluted.I reached to the living room. Mother-in-law just stood with a look of surprise still evident on her face. “Mother?” I called and she looked at me. “I will be outside if you need me,” I said and turned towards the door.“Hold on, Rani,” Priyanka said.I halted. That wasn’t Mother or Sidd’s voice. Does the call girl know my name? What more did Sidd tell her about me? I turned. Indeed, it was the call girl that stopped me. She walked to me.“I’m sorry,” she said. “I didn’t know you are Sidd’s wife. He didn’t tell me and I scolded him for that,” Priyanka apologized.I was confused. I didn’t say anything. Why would Sidd’s mistress apologize to me? Sidd came along.“It’s true, Rani,” he stated. “Meet Priyanka Kapoor, my childho
I rode with my boss to Begusarai. We didn’t talk much in the car. He only showed me the presentation on his laptop. When we reached, we lodged in a hotel. Different rooms. After freshening up, I sat on the bed, going through my laptop. I got the presentation on my laptop as a backup. It was sunset then. I heard a knock on my room door. I looked at the door. The knock came up again. I stood up to go get the door. I opened up and saw Mr. Arijit looking down at the door.“Hey,” he smiled, looking up at me with a mesmerizing smile. My heart thumbs up to my throat. I forced a smile through my mouth. “Can I come in?” he said. Come in? By now? I swallowed hard and gave him a responsive nod. He entered, looking around the room.“You need anything, sir?” I asked, facing him.“How are you enjoying the room?” he asked, turning to look at me. “Are you comfortable? Or you need another room.”“No, sir, I am fine here,” I smiled again.“Glad to hear,” h
A few days later, I drove along from work. It wasn’t hectic at the office today. I finished what needed to be done early, so my boss permitted me to go home. Did I tell you guys his name? His name was Arijit Mohan. Mr. Arijit was so good. He was a responsible, concerned, selfless, and humble man. If I had met him before Sidd, I’m certain to have equally fallen in love with him. Crazy thought, I know. I got stuck in Mumbai's impromptu traffic.“Shit!” I hit my fist against the steering wheel.I relaxed back in my seat. I turned my head and saw Sidd coming out of a law firm with an attorney. I knew the attorney, he was a famous divorce handler of his time. I sat up quickly. He handed a paper to Sidd. I bet it was a divorce paper. Was Sidd planning to divorce me? Why? Because of the call girl? The honk of the car horn from my back pulled me back to the reality of the traffic lift. I moved off. I had a constant pang in my heart. Sidd wants to divorce me without thinking of our
