In a palace-like house in a quiet area away from Mumbai, a boy of about 27 years was angrily breaking everything he could get his hands on, one after the other. He was so angry that his fair face had turned red. Today, he was alone in his luxurious villa and had told all his security guards to leave. After breaking quite a few things, he closed his deep black eyes and began to take deep breaths.
“Control Ahaan, control. What did the doctor tell you? You have to learn to control your anger, otherwise it will be dangerous for you. You could even die. Do you want to die? No, right? So control yourself. Let’s start counting backwards and control your anger.” He was Ahaan Oberoi. One of the top businessmen in Mumbai. Six feet tall, with sharp facial features and a muscular, fit body. Very handsome to look at, but with one weakness: an anger disorder.
To control his anger, Ahaan started counting backwards from 10 on his fingers. He had counted all the way through and was even repeating it, but his anger was still not subsiding. After counting twice, Ahaan threw a vase and said, “These crazy doctors haven’t found any other way to reduce anger. This is the most ridiculous way to reduce anger. Count backwards… what the fuck is this.” He immediately took out his phone and called his psychiatrist.
His psychiatrist was a girl named Tanu, who was around 26 years old. “What happened now?” Tanu said as soon as she answered his call.
“I’m getting angry and it’s not going away. Tell me what to do?” Ahaan said.
Tanu took a deep breath and said irritably, “I’ve told you so many ways, I don’t have any other way to reduce your anger. Did you try counting backwards?”
“Yes. I’ve tried that ridiculous method too. If you can’t reduce my anger, then what am I paying you so much for? Do you even know that you charge me ₹35,000 for each of my sessions?” Ahaan shouted.
“And you also know that I’m the only one who’s putting up with you. Otherwise, you’ve insulted everyone so much that no one is even willing to look at you. You even threw a vase at a doctor’s table. Your grandfather settled the matter with money, otherwise your name would have been all over the media by now. I’m only putting up with you because you’ve been my family friend since childhood. Now listen to me quietly, put on some music and try to sleep while listening to it. You must have broken the stuff in the house and chased away your bodyguards. So for now, don’t sleep in this room and go sleep in another room nearby. Don’t go into the kitchen and stay away from knives.” Tanu explained everything to him gently so that Ahaan would listen to her.
“What if this method doesn’t work?” Ahaan asked.
“If this method doesn’t work, then drown yourself in water. I mean, there’s a swimming pool outside, so go and take a bath in it. Your anger will subside.” Tanu said this and hung up the call.
Ahaan called her again, “How many times have I told you not to hang up the call without asking me? You’re making my anger worse by doing that.”
“Oh, stop it, I’m not making your anger worse. And seriously, you should find another way to deal with it now. Things are getting out of your control.” Tanu advised.
Hearing her words, Ahaan’s anger increased instead of decreasing. Annoyed, he said, “I don’t know why I called you. It would have been better if I had tried hitting my head against the wall, maybe my anger would have subsided.”
“No, you just do what I said. Okay, I’m hanging up now.” Tanu hung up the call.
As soon as the call was disconnected, Ahaan slammed his phone hard against the wall and broke it too. “This is also useless. I feel like taking her life. But I can’t. I don’t have another psychiatrist for now.”
Ahaan left his room and went to another room to listen to music. He listened to music for a long time, but his anger was not subsiding. He was tearing at the sheet on the bed in anger, and while tearing it, he ripped the sheet. He stood up suddenly. His face was covered in sweat and his veins were about to pop out. Ahaan took out sleeping pills from the drawer and swallowed four or five pills one after the other. Then he went straight outside. There was a magnificent swimming pool in his villa. He took off his clothes and fell upside down into the swimming pool. After a while, he was floating in the swimming pool as if he were dead. After some time, he got up and started taking deep breaths.
“I really need to do something about my anger, otherwise, there’s no telling when I’ll leave this world.” He dived into the water again and kept bathing until he started feeling sleepy. When he started feeling sleepy, he stood up and went to the bedroom and fell asleep.
______________
In a restaurant in Mumbai, a 50-year-old man was scolding a girl. He was the owner of the restaurant and the girl was a waitress working there.
The restaurant owner shouted loudly, “You haven’t even been working here for seven days, and in these seven days, you’ve misbehaved with our regular customers twice. You’ve broken five crockery sets and put water and chilies in four customers’ food. If this continues, I’m not going to keep you in this job. I’ll have to look for someone else for myself. I hired you because you’re beautiful. But you’re causing me losses.”
A girl of about 21 years was standing in front of him, her eyes moist. She said in a low voice, “But sir, he grabbed my hand and also tried to touch me inappropriately. The crockery sets were quite old. They would have broken sooner or later.” She kept her head bowed.
“You make a mistake and instead of apologizing, you’re trying to prove yourself right. This was your last mistake today… if you behave like this with any customer or make any mistake in the future, I will fire you, Chahat.” The restaurant owner said.
She was Chahat. Chahat Sharma, remarkably beautiful to look at. About 5 feet 4 inches tall, fair oval face, light gray eyes and deep brown straight hair up to her waist. She was wearing a blue short skirt and a white shirt, which was the waitress’s dress there.
Chahat pleaded, “Please don’t say that, sir. I really need this job.” Chahat’s eyes were closed and she said in her closed eyes, “Only I know how hard I work. God must be happy to see me working wholeheartedly.”
“I don’t know about God, but I’m definitely sad to see my business suffer like this. If you need the job so much, you should work with full responsibility. You work here from afternoon to evening, but despite that, you make so many mistakes that we can’t afford it.” The restaurant owner said sternly.
“Don’t worry sir, I won’t give you any chance to complain from now on.” Chahat said, making an innocent face.
“Okay, but this will be your last chance. If you make any mistake even after this, I will fire you straight away.” Her boss said.
“Okay, I agree.” Chahat said and immediately started walking out of the restaurant, but as soon as she turned, her hand collided with a glass and it fell down. Chahat closed her eyes. The glass broke, which made the boss even more angry and he shouted loudly, “You’re fired.”
Chahat had nothing left to say in her defense. She left from there. A little later, Chahat was with her friend and both were sitting in the park. Her friend’s name was Shraddha, who was the same age as her and both studied together in the same college. She was a beautiful girl with a wheatish complexion.
Seeing Chahat’s downcast face, Shraddha understood everything. Looking at her, Shraddha said, “What did you do now that made him fire you?” While speaking, Shraddha glared at her.
“Oh God, what should I do? I was trying my best to be careful, but still, I don’t know how I was making mistakes. When you know you’re in a bad situation, you absolutely cannot make such mistakes. But when luck is not with you, it keeps happening on its own.” Chahat said innocently.
Hearing Chahat’s words, Shraddha replied, “I’ve put you on four different jobs in the last two months, but you make the same mistakes everywhere. If this continues, I won’t be able to help you any further either.” Shraddha was her only friend who helped her in every possible way from her side.
“Please don’t say that, yaar. You know very well how much I need money. My education is also not complete, which is why I can’t get a decent job.” While speaking, Chahat started crying and hugged Shraddha.
Seeing Chahat upset, Shraddha also became sad. Caressing her, she said, “Don’t worry, we’ll think of something. Just for God’s sake, don’t mess up. You keep doing silly things all the time, just like a child.”
Chahat separated from Shraddha and said with a childlike face, “Where did I get the chance to grow up properly? A little bit of childishness is left, which comes out in these antics. Leave all these things and tell me if you have any new job for me?”
“Yes, I do, but I’ll need a little time now, so let me think a little. I’ll tell you after thinking.” Shraddha replied. She was racking her brains.
Chahat sat cross-legged and said, pressing both her hands to her sides, “Think whatever you have to think quickly because I don’t have much time. My next job time will start in 2 hours.”
After thinking a lot, Shraddha said, “Okay, I have an uncle who does event management. He has an event management company. I talked to him a few days ago and he told me that he needs someone who can do shopping for him. He is ready to give a good salary and after that job, you won’t have to do all the other part-time jobs. Everything else is fine, but for God’s sake, don’t mess up this time.”
“Don’t you worry, I won’t make any mistake this time and I’ll give you this guarantee not by saying it, but by writing it.” While speaking, Chahat blinked her eyelids.
Shraddha made a strange face for a moment and then took out her phone and talked to her uncle. After talking for a while, she happily said goodbye to her uncle and said to Chahat, “He has said yes for your work.” Shraddha said, spreading both her hands.
Chahat hugged her. “Really, tell me when do I have to go to work.”
“Tomorrow evening only.” Shraddha said while hugging. “There is a party at Ahaan Oberoi’s place tomorrow. You have to help uncle there. See, do everything carefully because Ahaan Oberoi is not a small name.” Shraddha was repeatedly telling her not to make any mistakes because she knew Chahat well. Chahat was definitely hardworking, but she would make mistakes even without wanting to.
“Okay. See, as soon as I get my first salary from here, I’ll give you a party from my side.” Chahat said.
After giving Chahat good wishes, Shraddha left from there. At the same time, Chahat was also very happy. She had got a new job and also, she had to go to the city’s biggest businessman’s place on the first day of the job.
★★★★
Chahat reached a large event hall at 8:00 AM the next morning. The event hall was half decorated, while the remaining half was yet to be decorated. A slightly stout man was overseeing the entire decoration and giving instructions to everyone. Chahat was wearing a blue denim jumpsuit and had tied her hair in a ponytail. Then Chahat looked around and went to the man.
Chahat went to him and asked, "Hello, are you Mr. Ranawat?"
The man turned towards her and nodded in affirmation, saying, "Yes, I am Mr. Ranawat. And who are you?"
"I am Chahat. Shraddha must have told you about me," Chahat said, introducing herself.
"Oh yes. You've come quite early. Are you a student?" Mr. Ranawat looked her up and down and asked.
"I'm in my second year," Chahat replied.
"And your age?" Mr. Ranawat asked.
"21 years," Chahat replied in few words.
Mr. Ranawat nodded and said, "Okay. Shraddha didn't tell me what you can do, so you tell me what you can do. I'll give you work accordingly."
"What can I say in this? You give me whatever work you think is better for me. I'll do everything," Chahat said, looking around.
"Okay. Then do this for now, deliver the flowers wherever they are needed so they can be used in the decoration. After this, I'll give you another task. For now, do these small tasks, and then I'll fix a job for you," Mr. Ranawat explained Chahat's work for the time being.
"Okay," Chahat said, bowing slightly to show respect, and then went to work.
She was used to working because she had been working like this everywhere for the past year and a half. She had done small jobs and big jobs. How much she needed work was evident from the way she worked, but her habit of making mistakes always came in her way. Because of this, she couldn't stay in one place for long and was quickly dismissed. Chahat worked diligently throughout the day, and by 4:00 PM, the entire decoration was complete.
The hall was decorated according to a white and purple theme. Lavender bouquets were placed at the guest seating area.
Mr. Ranawat, looking at the decoration, said, "Well, the arrangements are good. Now, let's just hope there are no mistakes and Mr. Ahaan is happy with it."
Chahat was standing nearby. She said cheerfully, "He will definitely be happy because you have worked very hard for this."
"Yes, but Mr. Ahaan is not just happy with hard work. You don't know about him, but I have known him for the past 5 years. If there is even a small कमी, he gets angry and fires anyone for such a small thing. So, instead of hard work, it is important to see if there are any कमी."
"Is Mr. Ahaan that dangerous?" Chahat said, making a strange face, to which Mr. Ranawat replied by nodding.
The party was at 9:00 PM. Chahat had to do overtime on the first day itself. Guests had started arriving. Chahat changed and wore a waitress dress. She wore a black checkered short skirt and a white shirt and tied her hair in a ponytail.
As soon as the party started, Chahat started serving drinks to the guests. She was talking to each guest with a smile and serving drinks with a smile. The atmosphere was not too lively. About 10 minutes had passed when there was a sudden commotion outside. Media people started gathering around the carpet in the hall with cameras one after another. The eyes of the people who came to the party were also fixed outside. In such a situation, Chahat also stopped and started looking outside.
Outside, a black luxury car stopped near the red carpet and Ahaan got out of it. As soon as he got out, security guards surrounded him. He was looking quite dashing. He was wearing a black tuxedo. Chahat also kept looking at him.
Chahat commented on his look, "Wow, what a look... how dashing he is."
Ahaan started coming inside and someone called out to Chahat. Ahaan came inside and shook hands with one big businessman after another and then stopped at one place and started talking to a businessman. Chahat went to him while serving drinks and served him a drink too.
"Thanks," Ahaan said to Chahat while taking the drink, but he didn't even look at Chahat once.
After moving away from him, Chahat said, "Wow, what a personality. God must have made him with a lot of leisure time. There can't even be a mistake in such a person." Chahat was looking at Ahaan in a lost manner.
It was about 10:00 PM when Ahaan came on stage and took the माइक. He was going to make an announcement which was about today's party.
Ahaan said in the माइक, "Ladies and gentlemen, I know you must be very excited about why I have called you all here today. I will not make you wait any longer by keeping your excitement high. I, Ahaan Oberoi... because of all of your hard work..." he said, gesturing towards his staff, "am going to open 2 more companies this year. One of which will be our new office and these companies will be very big companies." As soon as he said this, everyone started clapping. Chahat also clapped.
Ahaan gestured towards Mr. Ranawat and asked him to get a drink. Mr. Ranawat looked around and saw only Chahat who was nearby. Mr. Ranawat gestured to Chahat to give the drink to Ahaan. Chahat immediately started going towards Ahaan Oberoi. She was climbing the stairs. Only the last stair was left when her sandal hook broke and she stumbled forward. Ahaan was in front. Ahaan came forward and caught Chahat but the tray in Chahat's hand went straight over Ahaan.
For a moment, the whole party went silent. Ahaan said to Chahat with a smile, "Work a little carefully." He hadn't looked at his suit yet.
Chahat looked worried. She said "Okay." and stepped back.
Ahaan looked at his suit and his face became as if he had gone into some deep shock. He clenched his fist and looked at the people in front who were looking at him. Ahaan gave a smile on his face and said on the माइक "It's okay, it's just a suit. You all enjoy. I'll be back."
Ahaan spoke and handed the माइक to Chahat and left from there. Mr. Ranawat's face was completely worried. He immediately came to Chahat.
"What have you done? Now I'm going to lose my job. Mr. Ahaan will not spare me now," Mr. Ranawat said, making a weeping face.
Chahat said in panic, "I didn't do this deliberately. You saw it, didn't you. I will apologize to him for what I have done."
Mr. Ranawat said, "Now even if you give your life in front of him, he will not agree. Last time at a party that someone else had arranged, a little ketchup fell on Sir's head, so he fired the entire staff along with the party arranger. He ruined their company. Today you have poured the entire tray of drinks over him."
Mr. Ranawat was very worried. Hearing his words, Chahat also got worried.
"Shraddha got me this job with so much difficulty and because of me Mr. Ranawat is also in trouble. Whatever happens, I have to try to fix everything by talking to Mr. Oberoi," Chahat said with teary eyes.
Chahat went after Ahaan to apologize to him. Ahaan was in the gents bathroom and looking at himself in the mirror. He was counting backwards on his fingers but in his mind. In the mirror, he was looking at his suit.
"No Ahaan... everyone is here so you can't be angry at this moment. Control yourself and let this go for now. Let this party end then I will see each and every one. Especially that girl," Ahaan said angrily, shouting.
Chahat was at the door itself. She heard Ahaan's last few words and came inside in panic and said, "Please sir, don't do that. I apologize for my mistake. Please please...." Chahat said, "Let me fix your suit right now."
Chahat started taking off his suit. Ahaan's face filled with more anger and he closed his eyes. Chahat took his blazer and started washing it with water by turning on the tap.
Ahaan opened his eyes. "Are you mad? This is a custom made suit and you are washing it like this? You have made it worse by washing it like this. Now it can't even be worn," Ahaan said in a suppressed voice, controlling his anger.
"What..." Chahat's eyes widened and she looked at Ahaan with those big eyes. Ahaan's brain vein was visible. He started feeling scared of Chahat like this. She stammered and said, "I... I'm sorry... please don't be angry about this either..."
Ahaan clenched his lips and closed both his hands tightly and said, "I'm not getting angry. You think I'm getting angry. No, I'm not at all. I don't get angry at such small things at all. I'm calm and listening to you peacefully," Ahaan gave a fake smile while speaking.
Chahat looked at Ahaan from top to bottom and said, "But it doesn't seem like it by looking at you."
Ahaan raised his eyebrows with a smile and said, "Nothing like that. Go and do your work."
"O..ok.. okay sir..." Chahat made an innocent face, lowered her head and started to leave. She was going when her foot slipped again and she fell on Ahaan again. This time Ahaan was not in a condition to handle her, so he also fell back with her.
Due to both of them falling, Chahat's lips collided with Ahaan's lips. A shiver ran through Ahaan's whole body and his anger completely subsided. Chahat's heartbeat increased. Chahat immediately composed herself and started getting up but then Ahaan pulled her and made her fall on him again. In all this, Ahaan had seen Chahat properly for the first time. Seeing her innocent grey small eyes and beautiful face, Ahaan's anger vanished in an instant.
After making her fall on him, Ahaan turned over and took Chahat under him. Before Chahat could understand anything, Ahaan grabbed both her hands and placed his lips on her lips. He was kissing her quite hungrily and Chahat was just looking at him with wide eyes.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Please review the story after reading it.
Ahaan was kissing Chahat quite deeply, while Chahat had not responded yet. She was still looking at Ahaan in surprise. Suddenly, Chahat came to her senses and pushed Ahaan away. Ahaan fell to the other side while Chahat immediately stood up. Ahaan also got up, and Chahat slapped him hard across the face.
“What was all that?” Chahat said angrily, “What do you think of me? You rich people are all the same, you just know how to take advantage of others. I didn't expect this from you.” Saying this, Chahat immediately left from there.
Ahaan stood there with his hand on his mouth, with a strange facial expression. He stroked his mouth and said with the same strange facial expression, "What was that..."
Ahaan was about to go after Chahat when Tanu called, so he picked up her phone.
“You called at the right time.” Ahaan said, “Today I found something to control my anger. I was very angry and you won't believe, she reduced my anger in just 1 minute. What 1 minute, just in a moment.”
"Who are you talking about?" Tanu asked.
“There's a girl… I don't know her yet but don't worry, she's not going anywhere now. If she's the way to control my anger, I won't let her go anywhere.” Ahaan said and cut the phone.
Tanu said on the other side, "I don't know what's going on in his mind now. Hopefully this boy doesn't get himself into trouble.”
Ahaan came outside and met some people from his company who had come to talk to him about something important. Ahaan ignored them and went through them towards the party. He was looking for Chahat among the people at the party, but she was nowhere to be seen. Ahaan came out of the party and started looking for Chahat there. But Chahat was not visible here either. As he turned inwards, he collided with Mr. Ranawat.
“S s sorry sir. This mistake will not happen again.” Mr. Ranawat said as soon as he collided.
“Where is that girl?” Ahaan asked.
"Which girl, sir?" Mr. Ranawat started looking at him.
Ahaan replied, "The one who ruined my suit."
"U..U... I fired her. She was new and had just been hired today, so she made a mistake. I already fired her because I know if I don't fire her, you will." Mr. Ranawat clarified.
Ahaan looked here and there and said, "But she shouldn't have been fired." Then he started going inside and stopped there looking back at Mr. Ranawat and said, "I want that girl back on the job."
Mr. Ranawat was looking at him in surprise because this had never happened before. Ahaan had never said for an employee that he wanted them back on the job.

Chahat was on the way and was full of anger. She was talking to herself, muttering on the road.
Chahat said in an irritated manner, "These rich people, I don't know what they think of themselves? What do they think, every other person is their property, that they can do whatever they want. I don't even know how it came into his mind? Did I look like that kind of girl to him? Yes, okay, I ruined his dress but in return will he do this to me? How did he even think? I should have not only slapped him, but also punched him a couple of times. I should have also filed a police complaint against him. I let him off very cheaply. I should have brought him to the party and told everyone what he did, then he would have come to his senses. After that, he wouldn't even think of doing this for the next seven lives. What about him, even his future generations wouldn't even think of doing this for the next seven lives. He would even be afraid of doing all this with his wife." She kept speaking angrily like this and kept walking.
Just then Shraddha's call came on her phone. As soon as Chahat saw Shraddha's call, she said, "Looks like she knows everything. Oh no. What will I say to her now?” She didn't pick up the call and ignored it.
But as soon as the call was cut, the call rang again, which Chahat had to pick up.
Shraddha said from the other side as soon as she picked up her call, "So... my dear... how was your day today... you know I prayed to God for you in the morning, so I am completely sure that today has been a wonderful day for you. You must not have made any mistake today."
From Shraddha's words, Chahat understood that she was still unaware of whatever had happened at the party. Chahat said in a hurry, "That means... you still don't know anything..."
"What don't I know?" Shraddha made a strange face.
Chahat stopped and changing the expression on her face said “Sorry, I made a very big mistake here too.” Saying this, she closed her eyes.
As soon as Shraddha heard this, she said, “Even God's blessings don't have any effect on you. I don't understand whether you are a girl or something else. How do you make mistakes? Have you come from Mars that you make these mistakes? I had arranged everything with so much difficulty. Now Uncle will call and he will also scold me.”
“Sorry. Now I won't ask you for any work in the future. Because I know I can't do any work properly.” Chahat started crying and cut the phone while crying.
"Hey..." Shraddha said. She immediately called Chahat again. Chahat picked up the phone, "Listen, what has happened has happened, now don't cry about it. No worries. It happens and don't worry, I will definitely find a new job for you. Please don't cry. Listen, you come here to my house, we'll talk."
"Okay, fine." Chahat said sobbing.
____
Chahat was at Shraddha's house after a while. Shraddha lived alone in her house because her mom and dad were in Chandigarh while she was here in Mumbai. Shraddha had placed two or three wine bottles and a vodka on the table.
“Come on... let's celebrate this sorrow together.” Shraddha said and started making a drink for her.
Chahat said helplessly, "Yaar, my sorrow is bigger than losing the job. You know that rich businessman Aana Aana..."
"Aana not Ahaan..." Shraddha said his name correctly.
“Yes… that one… today, by mistake, the drink fell on his suit, so in return, he with me in the washroom…” Chahat made her face small and said, “He started kissing me.”
Shraddha was drinking, so as soon as she heard this, the drink came out of her mouth. "What??"
“Yes…” Chahat nodded her head in affirmation.
“I should have hit that scoundrel hard on his face. How dare he do this." Shraddha said angrily.
“Yes, I slapped him on his face. And then I left him there, otherwise I was trying to convince him so that your uncle's job wouldn't be lost.” Chahat picked up the drink.
Shraddha comforted her and said, "No problem. It's enough that you are safe. What about the job, Uncle will also find another job and I will also get you placed on another job. I know... you have to pay your own expenses, that's why you need a job.”
“No yaar, it's not just that reason.” Chahat had taken a sip of the drink, due to which she was a little intoxicated. She used to get intoxicated quickly compared to others. "You know I am from a middle class family and I was only seven years old when my father left my mother calling her characterless. Since then she is ill and I have to bear the expenses of both of us. If I don't arrange the money for treatment, she will also leave me.” Chahat had not told anyone about this till now, but today she blurted out everything in a drunken state.
“You didn't tell me about this before. If you had told me, I would have helped you in every way.” Shraddha said.
“Now I have told you, right? Now please help.” Chahat said innocently.
"Uff..." Shraddha said, putting her hand on her shoulder, "Don't you worry, I'll find you another new job tomorrow."
Chahat agreed to her point. Both were drinking when Shraddha's uncle's call came on her phone. Shraddha looked at the phone and said, "Here comes Uncle's call. Now he will scold me and say a lot of things. He must have been fired too.”
"Say sorry to him from my side." Chahat said.
Shraddha picked up the phone, and her uncle said from the other side of the phone, "Where is that girl now? I want to talk to her."
"Uncle, she made a mistake and I apologize to you for this." Shraddha started apologizing first, "Whatever happened, I am sorry for it and I am ready to do whatever it takes for this. Please forgive her."
"You can say all this later, first get me to talk to that girl." Her uncle said.
"It can't be talked about now because she is ashamed of her mistake." Shraddha said.
"Tell her there is no need to be ashamed of the mistake because Sir has not fired her. On the contrary, I have fired her, so he is asking to hire her again. This has never happened, so tell Chahat to talk to me wherever she is so that I can re-employ her." Mr. Ranawat explained everything to her.
“W...w...what....” Shraddha looked at Chahat, who was drunk and fell backwards on the floor. She was muttering, "How dare he do this."
Shraddha thought in her mind, "Surely that businessman's intentions will not be good, that's why he is calling her back to work. I should refuse." Thinking this, she said to her uncle, "Whatever it is, but she will not come to work again now. She has found a new job and she has also started working."
"What so soon? It hasn't even been two or three hours since she left here." Mr. Ranawat said in surprise.
"Yes, so quickly because she finds another job quickly after losing one job. Okay, I'll hang up and you tell your boss that she will never work for you again.” Saying this, Shraddha cut the call.
Mr. Ranawat turned back in surprise and distress, and Ahaan was standing right in front of him.
"What did she say? Is she coming?" Ahaan asked.
Mr. Ranawat did not understand what to answer, but he could not lie either. He said, "She will never work here again."
Hearing this, Ahaan clenched both his fists tightly. He was getting angry again.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Ahaan reached his house at around three in the night. His bodyguards were securing his house. As soon as Ahaan arrived, he said, "I want the whole house empty."
The bodyguard in front lowered his face and said, "I'm sorry, sir. We can't do that today. The big boss has come."
"What? Dad is here?" Ahaan said in surprise, "Who allowed him to come here? Do I pay you all salaries so that just anyone can come to my house? No one is doing their job properly." Ahaan drove his car and stopped it quite speedily in the house parking. There were more than a dozen expensive cars in his parking lot. Ahaan got out of the car and angrily started walking towards the house.
He entered through the main door of the house and saw that his dad, along with his mom, whom he loved very much, was also present there. His mom, Shivani Oberoi, who was around 50 years old, was wearing a dark green saree. She had maintained herself well, which made her look much younger than her age.
"Mom, you also came here." Ahaan walked with slow steps towards Shivani and hugged her.
"Yes, I also had to come because you don't find the time to come home. I know you are busy with your work and have become a very big businessman, but at least come to meet us on the weekends, son," Shivani said lovingly, scolding him.
Ahaan gave her a slight smile and said, "You know I am busy even on the weekends. Besides, you must know about today's party."
Vijay Oberoi, his dad, who had put both his hands in his pant pockets, came in front of him and said, "Well, it's good that you remembered to tell us, otherwise we would have found out through the TV news. Everyone was there, from company staff to other small guests, except the two of us. Can I know why you didn't think it appropriate to invite me?"
Shivani looked at Vijay sideways and said, "I told you we won't talk about this."
Vijay was unaffected by her looking at him like that. He shrugged and said, "But I want to because it's important."
Shivani stepped back. Ahaan looked to the other side and said, "Because it's my success, and I just want to celebrate it with my people. I didn't want to celebrate this success with those people who just use me for their own benefit."
"Stay within your limits. Do you even know who you're talking to?" Vijay said angrily, "Whatever you are today is because of me. Never forget that in your life. The success you're talking about so big today didn't come out of thin air. If the Oberoi surname wasn't behind your name, no one would even ask you."
Shivani came closer and said, "Don't be angry. We came here to talk to him lovingly, and you were the one who said you would talk lovingly."
"You're telling me to talk lovingly... Can't you see his insolence?" Vijay shouted angrily.
"I'm not insolent. Just that a person is getting as much respect as they deserve. Just because I'm quiet doesn't mean I don't notice people's actions and intentions." While speaking, Ahaan glared at Vijay with cold eyes.
Hearing Ahaan's words, Vijay's anger increased even more. He said to Shivani, "Is this the upbringing we gave him? Can you see how much bitterness he has harbored in his heart?"
"Everything will be fine," Shivani said and looked at Ahaan, "I know you are upset about some things, but how long will you hold this resentment? Your younger brother is coming back in three days. There is a welcome party for him at home, so come."
"If I have time, I will definitely come," Ahaan said.
"I'm not asking you whether you will come or not, but I'm telling you that you have to come. If you don't come, then you'll see that there will be no one worse for you than me. Forget that you even have a mother then." Shivani said sternly this time. After talking to Ahaan, Shivani looked at Vijay and said, "Let's go."
Vijay said, "And bring your manners with you before coming."
Ahaan stood there while the two of them left. After they left, Ahaan said, "Today, both the day and the night are useless for me." Then he went to his room and stood under the shower. He didn't even take off his clothes and stood under the shower in his expensive suit, getting wet. While getting wet, he remembered Chahat. Chahat's face was revolving in front of his eyes. He had ignored things related to her earlier, but now he could see Chahat serving drinks at the party, Chahat fixing her hair in between, Chahat talking to people with a smile. He didn't know her name.
Ahaan closed his eyes and punched the wall, saying, "I know what people think about me. They don't think I'm good. But the waitress who controls my anger... your name... Doll... you look like a doll." He gave Chahat this name from his side and further said, "I'm not bad. Just that I have some habits that are bad, and you can fix them. You can fix me. No matter where you are... no matter how you are... I will bring you to me. Even if I have to do anything for it. Anything means anything. I am coming to you, my doll." Saying this, Ahaan closed his eyes and just let the water fall on him.
The next day was Sunday. Chahat came home around nine in the morning. She lived in a rental house with her mother.
Nisha Sharma, who was Chahat's mother, was cleaning the house. She was a slim, 42-year-old woman.
As soon as she saw Chahat, she said in her tired voice, "Where were you all night..." Saying this, she came to Chahat. There was concern for Chahat in her voice. Nisha further said, "You could have at least called and told me, beta. I called but you didn't answer. I was worried about you all night."
"I was at Shraddha's house last night, Mom. Yesterday, on the first day, I had to work overtime, so it got late at night, so I went straight to her house," Chahat said as she sat down on the sofa.
"Yes, but you could have told me. You know we are always worried about you at home." Her mother went to the kitchen to get her water. She brought water and gave it to her, then Chahat said, "It would be great if I could get a cup of tea too. My head is splitting with a headache."
"Okay, I'll make it. Nani is coming here today. Beta, go and pick her up from the station," Nisha said.
Hearing her, Chahat made a small face and said, "How many times have I told her to live here. Mami doesn't treat her well."
Hearing Chahat's words, Nisha's face fell. She said sadly, "I want that too. But her health is not good either, and neither is mine. Beta, you are already taking too much pressure. I don't want you to wander around for work instead of studying at such a young age."
"It's okay, Mom... I can take good care of both of you," Chahat said, hugging Nisha.
In this world, they had no one but each other. Chahat's father had left her mother a long time ago. Nisha's brother and sister-in-law didn't treat her well at her parents' house, so she lived alone. Her mother, Parvati ji, used to come to visit her occasionally.
Then Nisha ji, to improve Chahat's mood, said, "We will go shopping tomorrow. The house has run out of groceries. Tell me if you need anything."
"If I need something, I won't tell you, but I will come with you tomorrow. I am free tomorrow, Mom," Chahat said.
"Why will you be free? Don't you have to go to work tomorrow?" Chahat's mother asked, looking at her in surprise.
"No, Mom," Chahat said helplessly, "I messed up again and got fired again. Now I have asked Shraddha, so she will find a new job for me."
"It's okay, you will get a new job. Don't take too much tension. You are always worried about us, that's why you mess up at work. Try to focus on your work." Nisha ji explained. She could understand Chahat's problem very well. At a very young age, she had taken on the responsibility of Nisha ji.
"I try to work properly, but mistakes still happen. What should I do now, you tell me. I make half the mistakes because I try to pay too much attention. If I don't pay attention, then mistakes are bound to happen. I don't know where I got this habit from," Chahat said and started running her fingers through her hair again.
Nisha ji smiled hearing her. While talking to Chahat, she felt darkness in front of her eyes, but she didn't want to show anything to Chahat. Before she could faint and fall, she hugged Chahat and started caressing her with love. Her eyes were closed, then a drop of tear flowed from her eyes.

Ahaan was at home because it was Sunday. He was in his kitchen and making something to eat for himself. Music was playing and he was moving along with it as he made something to eat.
"Oh... how peaceful it is when there is no anger in the mind. May this peace remain like this." He grabbed the frying pan and started enjoying it by tossing whatever he was making. After making breakfast, he came to the dining table and started eating it.
While eating, he called Mr. Ranawat. "Good morning, Mr. Ranawat," Ahaan said as soon as Mr. Ranawat picked up the phone.
Mr. Ranawat was half asleep. He had not seen the name on the phone, so he said, "Who is it?"
"Amazing, you forgot me so quickly. I am Ahaan Oberoi," Ahaan said.
As soon as Mr. Ranawat heard this, he sat up. "Oh sir... how did you remember me so early in the morning." Mr. Ranawat's entire face was covered in sweat.
"Just to tell you that whatever the girl was, I want her in my office. I didn't say anything to you yesterday, but now I am saying it clearly. If that girl doesn't come to work in my office by tomorrow morning, then you yourself will write and give me your resignation with your own hands. Otherwise, if I take action, it won't be good," Ahaan said. Because his mood was good, he was talking quite normally.
"B b but...sir... she has started working somewhere else. I talked to her yesterday," Mr. Ranawat said.
"Then fire her from where she is working and bring her here," Ahaan said. "Give her whatever salary offer you want."
"But her studies are not complete either. You keep post-graduate people in your company, while she has not even completed her graduation," Mr. Ranawat made an excuse.
"Understand that from now on, the company's rules have changed," Ahaan said. "Now anyone can come and work in the company."
"But sir... m...m..." Mr. Ranawat could not find words to speak.
"You know I am not used to hearing no. Nor do I talk so much to anyone. So I am hanging up the phone. When I reach my company tomorrow morning, she should also be there. If she is not there, then you can think about what is going to happen to you," Ahaan said and cut the call.
As soon as he hung up, Mr. Ranawat showed tension on his face and said, "What a strange trouble has come upon my head. What is it about that girl that he has gone crazy after her. Surely he wants to give that girl some big punishment because spoiling a suit would not be a trivial matter for him. That's why he is running after that girl like a madman." Saying this, he went back to sleep.

Chahat finished her work and reached a nearby restaurant. It was her owner's restaurant. Whenever Chahat didn't have work, she would come there. The place was not very big, so people from the surrounding neighborhood and people working nearby came here as customers.
"How are you all?" Chahat said, looking at the people having breakfast in the restaurant. They were all over 40 years old and worked in a nearby factory. Their morning breakfast was here. Everyone said they were fine.
Chahat smiled and went to the kitchen area. There, the restaurant owner was cooking.
"Good morning Dad, good morning Chachu. Your assistant is present for today," Chahat said and started cutting vegetables for them.
The restaurant owner, whose name was Ravi, said, "I am fine, but where were you last night? Nisha ji was worried about you."
"Don't even ask, Chachu. Yesterday was a very big day for me. It was the first day at a new job, so I had to work overtime on the first day. I got free at 11:00 pm at night, so it was quite late, so I went to Shraddha's house," Chahat said.
"What would have happened if you had told me this," Ravi ji said, "You know how much Nisha ji cares about you."
"I won't do that from now on, Chachu," Chahat said with a smile and started doing her work.
Chahat finished her work and then got ready and went out for a walk.
On the other hand, Shraddha was at her home and was watching a movie at this time. Just then someone rang the doorbell of her house.
"Who could it be at this time?" Shraddha thought and stood up and went to the door and opened it. Right on the other side of the door were her uncle, Mr. Ranawat. With a surprised, troubled, and downcast face.
As soon as Shraddha opened the door, he joined his hands and said, "Please help me. I helped you when you needed it. I lied to you that the event management company is mine. Actually, Ahaan Oberoi had taken over a small company. I used to work there. I asked him for a chance in the form of that company and he gave it. Help me, otherwise my job will be in danger. You are my only hope now." Mr. Ranawat told Shraddha everything.
Shraddha squinted her eyes and said, "I know why you have come here, but Chahat cannot work now."
On Shraddha's outright refusal, Mr. Ranawat fell right there. He was already worried, but there was fear on his face. The fear of Ahaan Oberoi.
Mr. Ranawat came inside. Shraddha was going towards the kitchen when he stood in front of her, and joining his hands again, he made a pitiful face and said,
"Please don't do this. That day when you called to give your friend a job, I said yes without thinking. That girl is not even properly educated. Today when I need it, you are refusing! You can't back out like this! Shraddha, if that company slips out of my hands, everything will be gone. My whole family could be in trouble because of this." Mr. Ranawat was trying his best to convince Shraddha.
Shraddha thought for a moment and then replied, "Then you should handle the sword hanging over your head yourself. Anyway, don't you know how scared Chahat is now?" Shraddha said, acting. With a sad face, she went down into the kitchen from his hands and said, "Yesterday your boss scared her so much that she has a job trauma in her mind. She barely found a job for herself yesterday. Even there, she was messing up badly and without making any mistakes, she kept saying, 'I didn't do anything, I didn't do anything. Everything happened by mistake.'" Saying this, Shraddha shouted at Mr. Ranawat, "In such a situation, do you think she will come and work for your dangerous boss?"
"Ah... I can understand your problem," Mr. Ranawat said. "His nature is dangerous. A good salary offer has been given from his side, so you should talk to Chahat once."
"How much are they giving?" Shraddha asked, making a wry face.
"They will give up to 50000," Mr. Ranawat said, estimating. "The company's rules are hard, so they don't hire anyone without a post-graduation, but Chahat is getting this opportunity, so she shouldn't lose it. This opportunity never comes in anyone's life. Fate itself has come to her path for Chahat. Looking at that girl, it is clear how much she needs money. In such a situation, it is a good opportunity for her, you talk to her again. Maybe things will work out." When Shraddha did not agree to his pleading, Mr. Ranawat tempted her with money.
Shraddha knew very well that Chahat was in dire need of money at this time. Still, without talking to Chahat, she couldn't say yes to Mr. Ranawat.
After thinking for a while, Shraddha said, "I will try to talk to her, but I don't think she will say yes after what happened last night. Chahat has found a new job for herself, hopefully, you will also get a new job soon." Shraddha finished her talk like this and went into the kitchen.
Mr. Ranawat understood that there was no point in talking to Shraddha now. He said softly, "Then I think I should go home now. I should go home and write a resignation letter on my laptop." He made a sad face and left with the same face.
As soon as he left, Shraddha immediately went and closed the door and called Chahat. When Chahat picked up the phone, Shraddha said as soon as she picked it up, "Hey, Ahaan Oberoi has completely gone crazy after you. He wants to hire you in his company and is offering a good salary too. I think he has fallen for you. You are also beautiful to look at. Such rich people deliberately hire beautiful girls so that they can make their nights colorful by giving them more money."
"I... I... I am not going to go to him," Chahat said, keeping her hand on her chest, "I don't want to make anyone's nights colorful."
"Yes..." Shraddha said, agreeing with her, "I have told them that you have got a new job."
"Yes, yes, okay," Chahat said, and looking here and there, she said sadly, "Okay, what have you thought about the new job? Is there any work anywhere? I really need money. If that man hadn't kissed me that night, I would have really gone to him today."
"As long as I am here, that will never happen. Don't you worry. I haven't seen it yet, but I am going to see it now. I will give you an update by evening," Shraddha replied to her.
"Okay, see and tell me," Chahat said and cut the call.
Chahat had just finished talking to Shraddha when her grandmother Parvati Ji reached there. Nisha had brought her. Chahat ran to her and hugged her.
"Grandmother, I missed you so much," saying this, Chahat separated from her. Then Chahat noticed that every time her grandmother came with a bag, but this time there were four luggage present with her. Then she looked at Nisha, whose face was also down.
Nisha Ji knew what Chahat was going to ask. Before she could ask, Nisha said sadly, "Brother has thrown mother out of the house. From now on, mother will stay with us only." Saying this, her face became sad. She knew that Chahat was already taking a lot of pressure because of them. On top of that, her mother's arrival meant an increase in the expenses of one more person. Her mother's health was also not good.
So that Parvati Ji would not feel bad or the situation would not be awkward for her, Chahat said laughing, "No problem, Mama. I just finished talking to Shraddha. She has told me about a new job, which is full time and the salary is also good." Then Chahat looked at her grandmother and holding both her cheeks, said, "Grandmother, you are very lucky for me. Your footsteps fell in this house and see how good a job I have got."
Hearing her words, Parvati Ji smiled and lovingly stroked her head. They were both busy talking when suddenly Nisha felt dizzy again and this time she fell down.
Seeing her, both Chahat and Parvati Ji got scared and soon took her to a nearby hospital.

It was about 4:00 in the evening when Ahaan called Mr. Ranawat again. "What's the news?"
Mr. Ranawat was sitting right in front of his laptop in his room in his house and had written half the resignation letter. "I have done all my efforts but that girl is not going to come to work now."
"Oh, that's right. I thought you would do it but you didn't. Let's see, I don't know about that girl but I will find someone else in your place," Ahaan said, showing a smile on his face.
"It's not my fault. I don't know what you said to that girl but she has become very scared because of it," Mr. Ranawat said, slamming his face on the table.
Ahaan was standing with his hand on a desk. Hearing Mr. Ranawat's words, his face started to turn cold. "You are blaming me for your failure, Mr. Ranawat. You are not doing this right. I didn't say anything to that girl and talked quite normally. It seems you are not even willing to do a job somewhere else, that's why you are talking nonsense in front of me," Ahaan said in a slight anger, due to which Mr. Ranawat's face had beads of sweat.
"But her friend told me the same thing that she is very scared and doesn't want to come to work now," Mr. Ranawat said nervously.
Ahaan became silent and after remaining silent for a while, he thought in his mind, "Did she get scared by my kiss? But that... that was a normal kiss." After thinking for a moment, he said to Mr. Ranawat, "Give me that girl's address. I will go and talk to her myself now."
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Chahat took her mother, Nisha ji, to the hospital, accompanied by her grandmother, Parvati ji. They were at a government hospital. Nisha ji was undergoing tests while Chahat paced anxiously in the waiting area.
After a while, the doctor called Chahat into his cabin. Looking at the reports, the doctor said, "She felt dizzy due to weakness. Tell her not to stress and to pay attention to her diet."
Chahat breathed a sigh of relief knowing that Nisha ji didn't have any serious illness. She smiled faintly and said, "Thank you so much, Doctor. I will take good care of her."
"Get the medicine from outside. You can take her home," the doctor said, handing Chahat a prescription.
Chahat thanked him and took Nisha ji home. Parvati ji was cooking for Nisha. Chahat was alone with her. She held Nisha ji's hand and said, "Mom, I'll manage everything. Why are you taking tension?"
"Then what should I do? I feel suffocated by my failure when I see you struggling for money day and night. Believe me, Chahat, I tried my best to endure every beating, every abuse from your father. But when it came to you, I couldn't stop myself," Nisha, Chahat's mother, said, breaking down in tears.
Chahat hugged her and said, "I am proud of you, Mom. I will also become brave like you so that no one ever mistakenly makes me tolerate anyone's oppression."
Listening to Chahat's words, Nisha ji smiled, and her mood improved considerably.
______________
It was almost 8 o'clock at night when a large black luxurious car stopped in front of Chahat's house. It was Ahaan's car. Ahaan got out of the car and looked around.
"This is the address I was given, but which one could be her house? Would it be right to go to someone's house directly?" Ahaan stood there confused, talking to himself, when a child approached him.
Looking at the car with wide eyes, he said, "This car is so beautiful. Is it yours, sir?"
"I... I need to meet Chahat Sharma," Ahaan blurted out.
"Oh, so you've come to meet that mess-up shop. That sister is useless. She keeps making mistakes," the child said, shaking his head. Then, laughing, he pointed towards a house and said, "Chahat lives on the first floor of Ravi uncle's house as a tenant. You'll find her if you go there."
Ahaan thanked him and started walking towards the house the child had pointed out. Chahat had just left the house to get some groceries when Ahaan pulled her into a nearby alley.
There was no light other than the street light. The alley was also a dead end, so there weren't many people around. Chahat got scared when someone suddenly pulled her like that.
Then she looked up and saw that it was Ahaan, who had pinned her against the wall.
Seeing Ahaan in front of her, Chahat got angry and tried to push him away, but Ahaan held her tightly.
Before Chahat could think anything about him, Ahaan spoke up, "Listen, don't misunderstand me. I just..." Ahaan was speaking when Chahat interrupted him, "You dragged me here like this and you're telling me not to misunderstand. Which decent person does such a thing?"
Listening to Chahat's words, Ahaan immediately let her go. If someone else had said this to Ahaan, he would have broken their face in anger.
Ahaan paused for a moment and said, "I found out from Mr. Ranawat that you desperately need a job and he fired you. I just wanted to talk to you about that. You can work for me."
"No thanks... I have found another job," Chahat replied quickly.
Ahaan didn't want to belittle himself by requesting Chahat. He said carelessly, "Okay."
Saying this, Ahaan started to leave. Chahat was looking at him in surprise. She said softly, "What? He left so quickly? I thought he would beg and plead. But he didn't do anything like that. What the heck? He let such a good opportunity go. I don't know what the truth is? The one who got angry and kissed me that day or the one who came all the way here to help me today."
Chahat stood there thinking for a while. When she heard Nisha ji's voice, Chahat quickly left.
Chahat had not completed the errand she was sent for. She got caught up in Ahaan's arrival.
Seeing Chahat empty-handed, her grandmother Parvati smiled faintly and said, "Dear, it would have taken only 10 minutes to do what you were sent for. You came back after a whole 20 minutes, and that too empty-handed. Now you tell me, how will I give your mother her medicine without milk?"
"Sorry, Nani, I didn't remember. I'll go back," Chahat said in a lost voice and went back to get the milk.
______________
On the other hand, Ahaan's younger brother Ayush had arrived in India. His mom, Shivani, had insisted that Ahaan go to the airport so that his father couldn't come between the two brothers. Besides, Ayush was returning after a whole five years.
Ahaan was waiting for Ayush in the waiting area with an irritated face. After clearing security, Ayush came out. He was about 23 years old, four years younger than Ahaan. With a height of about 5 feet 10 inches, wheatish complexion, and hair scattered lightly on his forehead, he looked like a rockstar.
As soon as Ayush came out and saw Ahaan in the waiting area, he ran and hugged him. Ahaan said excitedly, "I've been lucky in every matter, but I've never been so lucky that you came to pick me up from the airport, Big Brother."
Ahaan rolled his eyes and said, "You're coming back after 5 years, I thought you would become a little sensible after completing your education, but your habit of creating drama is still not gone, is it?" Saying this, Ahaan tried to distance himself from Ayush, but he held him tightly.
While Ahaan's nature was angry and serious, Ayush was fun-loving and calm. He knew his brother well and, despite all his flaws, he tried his best to reason with him and loved him very much.
Ayush moved away from Ahaan and, resting his elbow on his shoulder, asked, "A lot must have happened in my absence, right? Dad had forbidden me from staying in communication with you people so that I could focus on my studies properly. Everything else is fine, I'll gradually find out what I missed, but tell me, did you find my sister-in-law or not?"
Listening to Ayush's words, the expression on Ahaan's face turned cold. Some scenes were flashing before his eyes, in which he was in a wedding dress and waiting for a girl to arrive. Suddenly, Ahaan clenched his fists in anger and started counting backward in his mind.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Ahaan Oberoi had come to the airport to pick up his younger brother, Ayush Oberoi. As they were leaving, when Ayush asked Ahaan about finding a life partner for him, Ahaan was flooded with some bitter old memories.
Ahaan started getting angry again, and to control it, he started counting backward in his mind, as instructed by his psychiatrist.
Ayush noticed Ahaan looking around and clenching and unclenching his fists. Ayush understood that Ahaan was getting angry.
To calm him down, Ayush put his hand on his shoulder and said, "Chill bro. There's nothing to be so upset about. I was just asking. Everybody knows that to become a successful businessman, one has to dedicate all their dedication to work. It's not easy to become 'The Ahaan Oberoi'." Ayush easily brushed off the matter.
Ahaan agreed with him. He wanted to get out of that place as soon as possible. He said to Ayush, "Let's go. 'Your Ahaan Oberoi' doesn't have time to waste standing at the airport and talking. I have to rush."
"Yes, why not... it's a big deal that 'The Ahaan Oberoi' came to pick me up. Every minute of his is precious. Let's go straight home. After a whole 5 years, I'll get to spend some quality time with my family," Ayush said happily.
Ahaan agreed with him, and both started walking outside. Media stars were always present outside the airport to capture any big celebrity. Ahaan Oberoi was the biggest businessman in Mumbai, and he was no less than a celebrity. Along with being successful, he was also very handsome, which made girls more curious about him than about stars. Seeing Ahaan there, the media people ran towards him. Ahaan didn't pay them any attention and headed straight towards his car, while Ayush stood there posing like a rockstar.
Ahaan was even more irritated by his antics. He glared angrily at Ayush and, without saying anything, grabbed his hand and dragged him towards the car.
"What was that?" Ahaan asked, looking at Ayush sideways.
Ayush ran his hand through his hair, smiled, and said, "Nothing? Now I'm completely convinced that what I've heard about my brother is true. He has become a star along with being a very big businessman. Brother, you have such a good life, yet you're so grumpy? If I were in your place, I would have given good poses and answered the media's questions."
Instead of answering Ayush, Ahaan muttered to himself, "These media people are as quick to put someone on a pedestal as they are to bring them crashing down. Given my mental condition, it's better for me to stay away from the media and limelight. If they ask some ridiculous question again, I'll kill them in anger right then and there. Then the next day, it will be breaking news on their channel that Ahaan Oberoi broke a reporter's camera and killed him." Ahaan stayed away from the limelight. That was the reason people were more curious about him. His social media accounts were also handled by his PR team.
While thinking about the media, Ahaan was lost in old memories, which were about six months old.
Ahaan had gone to a big business party where the media was also present. As soon as he arrived, as always, the media people surrounded him, and a reporter held a microphone in front of him and asked, "Sir, I heard you were about to get married, and on the wedding day itself... ."
Before the reporter could finish, Ahaan looked at him angrily and grabbed his throat. He squeezed his throat and said, "Be in your limits."
Before Ahaan could say or do anything further, his manager stopped him. Luckily, there weren't many media persons present there, and the manager silenced them by paying them money and seizing their cameras, and they were given advanced camera equipment.
Still, Ahaan couldn't let go of the insult he had suffered because of that reporter so easily.
After the party ended, the reporter was going home in the middle of the night when a speeding car hit his bike, and after he fell down, it brutally crushed him. It was called an accident, but Ahaan was driving that car.
Ahaan didn't want to remember much about it, so he quickly opened his eyes. In a short while, they were both in front of Oberoi House.
It was his father, Mr. Vijay Oberoi's ancestral mansion, which had been given a modern look. Even today, Oberoi House was known as Oberoi Palace in Mumbai, and it looked very royal. A large runway was built in front, making a ground so that any private jet could land there comfortably. On the other side, a large luxurious royal garden was built. Further ahead was a white-colored old-fashioned mansion, which had been given a modern avatar and made even more beautiful.
As soon as they reached Oberoi Palace, Ayush excitedly got out of the car, but Ahaan was still sitting inside, and there was no expression on his face.
Ayush leaned over and looked at Ahaan and said, "What? Do you need a special invitation to come inside? Come out, bro... I can't wait anymore to be with my whole family."
Ayush had just arrived, and Ahaan didn't want to spoil his mood by telling him old stories. He normalized the expressions on his face and said, "You wasted so much time on the way that I don't have time to stay here. Look, I have a very important meeting, and I have to go."
When Ahaan made an excuse about the meeting, Ayush believed it to be true. With a downcast face, he said, "Okay, then we'll meet at night, and I don't want to hear any excuses from you. I want a family dinner."
Ahaan didn't answer him and gestured to the driver to start the car. Ayush said bye to Ahaan, and Ahaan left from there.
Ayush was watching the car go. He said to himself, "How much more will you hide, brother? I know I wasn't here, and I really don't know what must have happened there behind my back. I don't know why Dad made this decision that I had to stay out for 5 years and not talk to anyone. I followed his instructions well. I don't regret missing the good things that happened behind my back, but your silence is saying a lot. Now I'm feeling bad about why I listened to my dad? Did I leave my brother alone in his hard times? Now only Mom can tell me everything."
The excitement with which Ayush had come to Oberoi Palace had now turned into disappointment. With a downcast face, he was dragging so much luggage inside.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
The next morning, Chahat woke up. Chahat had set her routine in such a way that she could wake up on time and go to work early. She would wake up at six in the morning. After doing her routine work, Chahat got ready. She wore blue baggy pants and a gray long-sleeved crop top.
Chahat straightened her hair and styled it to fall on both sides of her face.
By the time Chahat got ready, it was seven in the morning. Her mother, Nisha, was still asleep. Chahat thought that she was sleeping more because of taking too much medicine. Meanwhile, Chahat's grandmother, Parvati ji, was busy making breakfast for her.
After checking on Nisha ji, Chahat went to her grandmother and hugged her from behind, saying, "Thank you so much for giving me such a beautiful and sweet Mom. Now that you are here, I am relieved about Mom. You take such good care of her. You are the best Nani." Saying this, Chahat pulled away from her.
Parvati ji knew very well that Chahat was saying all this so that she wouldn't feel strange staying in this house. Hiding the tears in her eyes, Parvati ji smiled slightly and said, "In that case, I should also thank your Mom because she gave birth to such a sweet daughter. Okay, enough talking. Eat something before you go out."
Parvati ji had made simple parathas for Chahat. Along with a bowl of yogurt, she extended the plate towards Chahat. They lived a normal life where their food was quite simple.
Chahat started eating while standing there. Then, with a serious face, she said to Parvati ji, "Nani, if you need anything, please tell me, and please take full care of Mom. Don't think that I will get worried because of her poor health. If you hide anything related to her health from me, it can worsen her condition. Last time also, Mom fell ill, but she didn't tell me. Because of this, her condition worsened instead of getting better. You understand what I mean, right?"
Parvati ji nodded in agreement. She knew her daughter's habit very well. She often lied about her health so that Chahat wouldn't worry.
While talking to Parvati ji, Chahat finished her breakfast. She put the plate down, picked up her bag, and left in search of a job.
As soon as she stepped out of the house, Chahat gave a small smile and said to herself, "All the very best, Chahat Sharma. Today I have to go to three places for job interviews. Two of them are restaurants and one is a pub."
Chahat's studies were not yet complete, so she could only do small jobs like waitress or something similar. She was quite beautiful, so she didn't have much difficulty finding such work. For waitress jobs, priority was often given to good-looking girls so that more customers would come there.
Chahat first went to a big restaurant in Mumbai. After a long interview, the owner of the restaurant said, "Your record is quite bad, Miss Sharma. Professionals work here. Most of the waitresses working here have management degrees. You won't be able to survive, and based on your past record, I don't think you will make a good impression on my customers. Better luck next time." Making a good excuse, he dismissed Chahat.
Chahat came out of the restaurant with a disappointed face. Then she patted herself on the back and said, "It's okay, Chahat, there are two more places left."
After not getting a job at the first restaurant, Chahat went to the second restaurant. It wasn't as big as the first restaurant, but the salary there was decent. Moreover, because the restaurant wasn't too big, Chahat didn't have the fear of rejection.
Chahat went to the restaurant with full confidence and introduced herself.
There, after a long interview, the restaurant owner, who was a young girl, said, "See, most of the college girls come here to hang out with their boyfriends. This restaurant is quite close to the college. My restaurant is famous for couples. You are too beautiful. If someone's breakup happens because of you, then not only will the image of my restaurant be spoiled, but girls will not like to come here with their partners in the future. Really sorry, Miss Sharma, I cannot give you the job of a waitress. I am looking for average-looking girls instead of good-looking girls."
The restaurant owner made a good excuse and sent Chahat away. The first time Chahat was rejected, she was disappointed, but this time she felt like crying.
"This is too much. Now being good-looking has become a crime. Why would I cause anyone's breakup? I have no interest. After knowing what my father was like and his actions, I have started hating boys. They are all the same. Cheaters and those who consider girls as shoes for their feet. They only love their partner when she is under them on the bed." Chahat said angrily. Her eyes started watering.
It was true that Chahat had never had a boyfriend, and the only reason for this was her mother's bad relationship. It wasn't that no boy had ever proposed to her, but Chahat had not said yes to any boy, nor did she want to get married.
Because the three places where Chahat had gone for interviews today were located in different corners of the city, a lot of her time was wasted. By the time she reached the pub at night, it was almost eight o'clock.
The pub was crowded, and most of the people there were drunk. So Chahat hesitated and went inside. While going inside, she collided with a boy who put his hand on her waist and said, "Sweetheart, let's dance with me... you are really hot and trust me, I can give you a good benefit of your hotness."
When the boy touched her forcibly, Chahat pushed him away and ran inside. Her breath was getting faster. Composing herself, Chahat said, "Relax, Chahat, even if this place is not good, the tips and salary here are quite good. If I get a job here, I can easily take care of the expenses of all three of us."
Chahat composed herself and went inside. The owner there seemed to be quite educated and a high-class man.
"Excuse me sir, I had come here for an interview. I..." As soon as Chahat was giving her introduction, the man interrupted her and said, "Are you the same girl who spilled a drink on Ahaan Oberoi at his party?"
The man was present at Ahaan's party and he recognized Chahat as soon as he saw her. Chahat nodded in response.
The man further said, "I cannot give a job to a girl who misbehaved with a big businessman like Ahaan Oberoi. You may leave."
The man did not listen to Chahat and showed her the way out without even interviewing her. Chahat felt like crying loudly because every single day was very important for her and she had not got a job. Chahat was sitting on a bench outside a park some distance from the pub and crying.
"Why is this happening to me? When I need money, I am not getting any job." Chahat was sitting alone and shedding tears.
Then she remembered the words of the pub owner who had mentioned Ahaan Oberoi's name. As soon as Chahat remembered Ahaan's name, she stamped her feet and said, "All this is happening because of that rich guy. That day he came as a well-wisher to give me a job and now because of him I am not getting a job."
Chahat was sitting there and saying bad things about Ahaan, while Ahaan was sitting in his cabin and talking to someone on the call.
A boy was standing at a short distance from Chahat and said on the call, "As per your instructions, no one has given her a job. I am keeping a close watch on her. After the restaurant, she has come to the pub. The owner there refused her and a boy also misbehaved with her. The poor girl is crying a lot." While saying this, the boy also became sad. He was feeling sorry for Chahat.
Ahaan was not affected by his words. He said without any emotion, "It's okay, let her cry. In the end, she has to come to me only. Make sure that she doesn't get a job anywhere." Saying this, Ahaan disconnected the call. There was an evil smile on his face.
It was Ahaan because of whom Chahat was not getting a job anywhere and no small or big businessman in Mumbai was going to take enmity with Ahaan Oberoi by giving a job to an ordinary girl.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Ahaan had just stepped away from a call with a boy. He was around 21 years old and his name was Monty. Ahaan had appointed Monty to keep an eye on Chahat and also to make sure that Chahat didn't get a job anywhere.
After getting all the information about Chahat from Monty, Ahaan was spinning a paperweight with one hand. Chahat's face was spinning in front of his eyes.
Ahaan said in a lost tone, "So sorry, doll, what Ahaan Oberoi sets his eyes on remains his. Think whatever you want, but you are copyrighted to me from now on. You will have to come to me yourself. You rejected my offer, so you will have to request to stay with me. Trust me, once you come to me, you will never lack anything. You won't have to live in that lousy house at all."
Talking to himself, Ahaan suddenly got up and left in his car. On the way, he called Monty, whom he had put behind Chahat.
Ahaan said on the call, "You stay at the same pub. I'm just reaching there. Did Chahat go home?"
"Yes, I saw her getting on the bus from here," Monty replied.
Ahaan didn't say anything further and hung up. About an hour later, he was in front of the same pub where Chahat had last gone to ask for a job. When Monty saw Ahaan there, he went to him.
As soon as he came near, Ahaan said in a subdued voice, "I need to know about the boy who misbehaved with Chahat." While speaking, a madness was clearly visible in Ahaan's eyes.
Monty agreed to his point. He had been working for him for a long time, so he quickly understood what was going to happen to that boy now. He was going to get a good punishment for misbehaving with Chahat.
Monty was walking ahead while Ahaan was coming a few steps behind him. They both entered the pub where loud music was playing and everyone was dancing and swaying.
The boy was still there dancing. It was different that now he was more drunk than before. As soon as they reached there, Monty pointed towards the boy and said, "He forcibly grabbed Chahat Madam by the waist and pulled her close to him."
Hearing Monty's words, Ahaan's fists clenched in anger. He put his hand in his pocket and started walking towards the boy with slow steps. As soon as he reached the boy, the boy suddenly screamed loudly. Due to the loud music, no one paid attention to him except a few people around. Anyway, shouting and screaming while dancing under the influence of alcohol was normal there. The boy was lying on the ground. Someone had stabbed him in the waist and pulled the knife out. The attack was so quick and hasty that he didn't even get a chance to look back and Ahaan stabbed him and moved on.
After being trampled by one or two people, people noticed him and stopped the music and started preparing to take him to the hospital.
At the same time, after hurting him, Ahaan came out of the pub. He had just sat in his car when he got a call from his brother Ayush.
Ayush said on the call, "Bro, where have you been? Mom and Dad are about to arrive."
"I don't have time for any stupid family gatherings, Ayush. Don't involve me in such things without asking me in the future." Ahaan replied in a very rude manner and hung up. Anyway, he was very angry because of that boy.
At the same time, Ayush was still looking at the mobile screen in surprise at the way Ahaan spoke, when his mom Shivani's voice came from behind him, who had placed her hand on his shoulder.
Shivani said in a soft voice, "If you've just spoken to Ahaan, then I'm not at all surprised by your facial expressions. You must have invited him for this dinner and he must have refused."
Hearing that Shivani knew everything, Ayush looked at her in surprise and asked, "If you know everything, then why don't you do something about it?"
"I do as much as I can. For example, I sent your brother to the airport to pick you up and also forced him to come to your welcome party. I can't do more than that. There has been a lot of distance between him and Vijay. Neither of them tells me what the reason is. Both of them have said that I should stay away from it and I stay away. You have just arrived, you will understand everything soon. If you want to maintain harmony between your brother and dad, then forget about the tension between them and mind your own business." Shivani gave a long lecture to Ayush at once. After talking to him, she gestured him to come to the table. Then Shivani herself started going to their booked table. Vijay Oberoi was already sitting there.
Looking at the table, Ayush said softly, "I don't know how you can be so chill but I'm not going to be. I know bro very well. He doesn't get angry with anyone for no reason. I know he gets angry a lot but he never gets angry for no reason. So has Dad done something that has made brother so angry with him?"
Ayush was lost in his thoughts, when his mom called him back. Ayush forgot everything for a moment and smiled and moved towards them.
_____________
Chahat had gone to three places today to find a job but she failed in all three places. She didn't want to tell her grandmother and mother about this, so before going inside, Chahat took chocolate from a nearby store and ate it. Eating chocolate made her mood better to a great extent.
After eating chocolate, before going inside, Chahat said to herself, "It's okay Chahat, we'll see. It's not necessary that all days are the same. It's not written anywhere that if I don't get a job today, I won't get a job tomorrow either. Maybe a better job is waiting for me. That's why these small jobs are not coming my way. Be optimistic, Chahat."
Chahat came inside smiling. Seeing her smile, both Nisha and Parvati's tension was over.
As soon as she came, Parvati ji said, "Chahat beta, quickly freshen up. I'll serve the food. Today I have made your favorite Matar Pulao."
Hearing the name of Matar Pulao, Chahat chirped, "I told you Nani.. You are the best Nani."
Hearing their conversation, Nisha said laughingly, "Stop flattering and quickly change. I'll go to the washroom in the meantime."
Nisha went to the washroom. Suddenly she coughed violently and ran to the wash basin. Looking at her hands while coughing, Nisha was stunned. Her hands were covered in blood, which was coming out when she coughed.
Just then, Chahat knocked on the door from outside and said, "Mamma please come out quickly. I need to use the washroom."
Nisha was looking at the door sometimes and sometimes at her blood-soaked hands. Seeing her hands, a drop of tear flowed from her eyes.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Chahat had returned home after searching for a job all day. She was waiting outside the washroom for her mother to come out, while inside, Nisha froze for a moment when she saw blood in her cough. On the other hand, Chahat was repeatedly calling her to come out.
Chahat knocked on the door again and said in a loud voice, "Mom, are you okay? Why aren't you coming out? I'm getting worried, and you're not even answering."
Nisha snapped out of her thoughts after hearing Chahat's voice. She quickly washed her hands and mouth and, trying to appear normal, replied, "You're banging on the door so loudly, how will I even be able to answer? Can't you wait for 2 minutes? If you were in such a hurry, you could have gone first."
Chahat breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Nisha's voice. She replied, "It's okay, Mom, take your time. I'll wait."
After saying this, Chahat was about to leave when Nisha opened the door. As soon as Nisha came out, she said, "Go now, go."
Chahat agreed and went into the bathroom. When she went inside, the bathroom was clean. Nisha had taken special care to ensure that not even a single speck of blood from her cough remained there by mistake.
Chahat didn't suspect anything either. She used the washroom and came out after a while. Now she was sitting with her family, enjoying her favorite pea pulao.
Praising her grandmother, Chahat said, "Grandma, I really get to eat such good food when you're around. Otherwise, Mom mostly makes simple food."
Chahat said this quite casually, but Nisha felt bad in her heart. Due to her poor health, she could barely cook, but Chahat never said anything about it.
Her eyes started to fill with tears, and she said to herself, "I've become nothing but a burden to you, Chahat. I don't know why God is doing this to us. First, I couldn't raise you properly, and now, I don't know what new disease this is. I hope I'm normal, otherwise where will my Chahat get the money for my treatment? It would be better if I died." While thinking this, Nisha didn't even realize when tears started flowing from her eyes.
Chahat saw Nisha crying, so she hugged her and said, stroking her, "Oh Mom, why are you feeling bad? You make even simple food very tasty."
"Stop buttering me up. I'm not crying because of you. I was just reminded of my childhood. When Mom used to give us simple food, and now look, she makes such good food for her granddaughter," Nisha said, laughing.
Hearing her words, Chahat looked askance at Parvati. Parvati nodded in agreement without saying anything.
Chahat made a face at them and said with a childish expression, "Very bad, Grandma."
Their dinner was done while talking like this, and in a short while, they were in bed. But sleep was far away from the eyes of all three. It was dark in the room. Because of this, each of them thought that the other two had fallen asleep.
Nisha turned over and said in her mind, "Oh God, whatever I've ever asked for, I've asked for my daughter. But today, I'm asking for myself. Please don't do anything that would make me a burden on my daughter. She's already suffering so much at such a young age."
Parvati ji's eyes were fixed on the ceiling. She muttered to herself, "Your father always raised your brother with more love and affection. He educated him more than you, and today he threw me out of the house. The daughter whom he considered a burden, today I am a burden on her. I wish he were alive so I could show him that his promising son, whom he raised with so much love, is of no use, and the daughter whom he distanced because she married according to her choice, today she is the support of her mother."
Parvati ji was thinking about Nisha. Nisha was thinking about Chahat, while Chahat's eyes were closed, but she was worried about tomorrow.
Chahat said in her mind, "I have some savings, that will last for a few days. By then, I'll get a job. I'll talk to Shraddha. She will help me. If needed, I'll borrow some money from her and return it later."
Lost in their thoughts, all three of them soon fell into the embrace of sleep.
______________________
Ayush was having dinner with his mom and dad, Mr. Vijay Oberoi and Shivani Oberoi. He was present there, but his mind was occupied with the thought of what could have happened that Ahaan didn't come to the dinner gathering.
After being silent for a long time, Ayush couldn't resist anymore. He thought of asking everything.
Ayush looked at Vijay Oberoi and said, "Can I know if brother..." Ayush was speaking when Shivani interrupted him, saying, "I told you, Ahaan is mostly busy. He will come to the party."
Shivani understood what Ayush was going to ask Mr. Oberoi. She immediately took control of the situation so that there wouldn't be another fight there. Already, she was getting crushed in Shivani and Ahaan's mutual disagreements.
Vijay was not naive. He understood what Ayush wanted to talk about. He gave him a sharp look and then said, "Well, since you've come here, you'll gradually understand everything. Your brother started his own company. AA Industries achieved a good position and because of that, Oberoi Industries went down. He deliberately became my rival and brought down my company. Now it's up to you whether you join your brother and become my rival or become your dad's support and elevate our company."
Vijay didn't ask a direct question. If Ayush joined Ahaan, he would become his father's rival, and if he joined his father, he would become his brother's rival.
Shivani was already quite troubled by the fight between Ahaan and Mr. Oberoi. She didn't want the relationship between Ayush and Mr. Oberoi to sour as well and for her to suffer unnecessarily.
Taking control of the situation, Shivani said, "Why are you getting caught up in such things, Vijay? Our son has come here after so many years. Let him spend some time here freely for a few days, he will decide himself after a while." Shivani somehow averted the situation.
Vijay agreed with her and said with a smile, "Your mom is absolutely right. I have organized a grand party for your welcome tomorrow evening. For now, all your focus should be on that. Tomorrow, Vijay Oberoi is going to introduce his son Ayush Oberoi to the whole world."
Ayush nodded in agreement and quietly started eating. He understood that his family was not as normal as he had been understanding them to be while living away for the past 5 years.
____________________________
After teaching that boy a lesson in the pub, Ahaan had come home. Monty had handled everything from behind.
It was almost 2:00 at night and sleep was far from Ahaan's eyes. Chahat's face was repeatedly appearing before his eyes. Chahat's refusal was becoming the reason for his anger. Suddenly he got out of bed and started taking deep breaths.
"No, you will calm my anger, not become the reason for my anger. Why are you doing this, Doll? I don't want to do anything wrong with you. I want to be with you. Just like in old stories, the prince used to kiss his princess and she would fall in love with him, I'm feeling something like that. I know I don't love you, but I want to be with you. I need... I need to talk to you right now, Doll, I want to hear your voice," Ahaan said restlessly. He was reacting like a psycho.
Not caring about the time, Ahaan picked up his mobile and called Chahat at this hour. Chahat didn't pick up his call in one ring, so Ahaan called back. At night, Chahat used to sleep with her phone on silent. Because of this, she didn't hear the phone ring, but all this had increased Ahaan's anger. Now no kind of back counting, listening to music or walking was able to calm his anger.
"No, talking won't do anything. I need to see you. I want to see my doll right away," Ahaan said, taking rapid breaths.
Before his anger could become uncontrollable and he could vandalize the more valuable items in his house, Ahaan went outside his house. He had to meet Chahat, so he took out his car and left to meet Chahat at this hour.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Aahan had been waiting in front of Chahat's house for half an hour, regardless of the time. Chahat's house was in a small area, and at night, it was completely silent. Aahan stood there with his car, and the silence was only broken by the occasional sound of a passing vehicle.
Aahan tried calling Chahat again, but she didn't pick up. He was trying to control his anger, which was building up inside him. Just then, Chahat woke up and came outside.
Chahat looked around and saw Aahan standing there. She quickly sat down, trying not to make any noise. Aahan was staring intensely at her house, his eyes fixed on the door.
Chahat thought to herself, "What is Aahan Oberoi doing here? Is he going to kidnap me? Whatever it is, I won't be scared. I'll teach him a lesson. He thinks he can just come here in his big car and intimidate me?"
Chahat slowly got up and crept towards the door. She opened it quietly, trying not to wake anyone up.
Aahan had been standing there for almost half an hour, seething with anger. But as soon as he saw Chahat, he composed himself and said, "Are you Chahat?"
Chahat replied, "Yes, I'm Chahat. But what are you doing here, Mr. Oberoi?"
Aahan shrugged and said, "I was passing by, so I thought I'd drop by and see you."
Chahat raised an eyebrow and said, "Really? What made you think of me? We don't even know each other. You got angry with me that day, and now you're just casually dropping by?"
Aahan smiled and said, "Why don't you come to me instead? That way, I won't have to keep coming to your place, doll."
Chahat's eyes widened, and she said, "Doll? Who's doll?"
Aahan replied, "You, of course. You look like a doll."
Chahat got angry and said, "I'm not a doll, Mr. Oberoi. Please leave now. I've told you I got a job, and I'll be moving out soon."
Aahan's expression turned serious, and he said, "You're lying to me? I hate liars, doll. This is your first and last mistake."
Chahat looked up at Aahan, mesmerized by his intense gaze. Aahan continued, "You have two days. If you don't get a job, you'll work at AA Industries."
Aahan handed Chahat a card with his personal number on it and said, "Call me directly in two days."
As Aahan turned to leave, he caught Chahat's face between his hands and kissed her forehead. Chahat felt a jolt of electricity run through her body.
Aahan drove away, whistling a tune. He was usually prone to outbursts of anger, but after meeting Chahat, he felt calm and composed.
When Aahan arrived home, his guards were surprised to see him in a good mood. He smiled and went to his room, feeling peaceful.
Meanwhile, Chahat stood outside her house, still reeling from Aahan's visit. She couldn't shake off the feeling that Aahan had left her with. She looked down at the card in her hand, feeling a mix of emotions.
Chahat thought to herself, "What's happening to me? I've never felt this way before. I need to control my emotions. All men are the same; they just want to satisfy their ego or physical needs."
Chahat took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She went back inside, trying to sleep, but her mind kept wandering back to Aahan.
In a dark room, a girl was tied to a chair, wearing a dirty wedding dress. She had been crying for a long time, and her eyes were red and puffy. The door opened, and a man came in with food. He fed her, and she begged him to kill her instead of keeping her captive. The man just smiled and left her room, locking the door behind him.
Chahat became quite restless after meeting Ahaan at night. She fell asleep soon after. Because she slept late at night, she also woke up late. Since she didn't have a job, Chahat didn't have to worry about waking up early.
Chahat woke up in the morning when it was almost 11 o'clock. She had been sleeping with the visiting card given by Ahaan in her hand all night. When she woke up and saw the visiting card in her hand, a slight smile appeared on her face.
“I hope I don't need this visiting card, Ahaan Oberoi. The way you try to claim me, it scares me. You are very handsome and your world is very different. People like me have no place there, nor will they have any respect. So it would be better if we stay away from each other." Chahat said looking at the visiting card and then got up and put it in a drawer.
Chahat had just turned around when her grandmother Parvati came to her and said, "You got up quite late today, but it's okay. You should rest sometimes. I just came to tell you that your friend Shraddha has come home and is helping your mother in the kitchen." Saying this, Parvati ji left.
Hearing about Shraddha's arrival, a smile appeared on Chahat's face. She was her only friend. On top of that, she and her mom got along really well. Whenever Shraddha came, Nisha would get very happy and cook for her with her own hands.
To give them company, Chahat also freshened up and went to the kitchen. A very nice smell of food was coming from outside the kitchen. Chahat stepped into the kitchen and said with a smile, "What's the matter... Rajma rice is being made and preparations are being made to eat it alone."
"Yes, of course... You have to wake up early to cook and learn in the kitchen, Madam. And what happened to you? Why did you wake up late today? Was there no interview?" Shraddha asked coming closer to Chahat. Chahat gestured not to talk about it.
Chahat didn't want Nisha or Parvati to know that she hadn't found a job. Handling the matter, Shraddha lightly tapped her head and said, "Oh God, I completely forgot that you have to serve at the party this evening. And the boss himself had asked you to come late. It will be late to come back at night, so he asked you to sleep late. I hope you got enough sleep."
Chahat nodded in agreement. Then she looked at Shraddha, made a face and muttered, "At least tell me a decent excuse. Will I have to hold a dharna at your house all night now?"
In reply, Shraddha held both her ears. Nisha was completely focused on cooking. She turned towards them and said, "I don't know what you two keep talking about all day. You both are always whispering. The food is almost ready. Chahat, go take a bath first, then eat something later."
Chahat agreed and went to take a bath. After a while, she came back to them after getting ready. Even though Chahat's family was short on money, the people in her house had very good nature. Shraddha came there for a short time, but she felt more at home there than in her own house. The four of them were sitting on the floor eating, which gave them more peace than a dining table in a big house.
Shraddha said while eating, "Wow aunty, there is no match for the food made by your hands. If you teach this idiot a little bit, it will be useful for me."
"Excuse me? Who is saying this, who doesn't even know how to heat water properly. For your information, let me tell you that I know how to cook. I just don't get time, that's why I can't cook much." Chahat said making a face. She was interested in cooking, so she learned to cook from Nisha at a young age.
"My Chahat knows how to do everything, but I don't know why she messes up every work." Parvati ji said looking at Chahat, on which Nisha and Shraddha laughed. Chahat was looking at them making a face.
It was true that Chahat knew how to do everything, but somewhere or the other Chahat would mess up and this was the reason why she could not stick to a job for a long time.
After the food was over, Chahat went out with Shraddha.
____________________________
Vijay Oberoi had hosted the welcome party for the arrival of Ayush Oberoi at his own house instead of in a hotel. After all, his house was considered one of the most beautiful houses in Mumbai. A heritage mansion, for which people were ready to pay a huge amount.
It was almost 6:00 PM and the party was in full swing. Ahaan had not come to the party yet. He didn't want to, but still he had to come to the party because of the promise he had made to his mom.
Ahaan was getting ready for the party at his house. His friend Tanu was also with him, who was going to the party. Tanu wore a black short dress for the party and styled her hair in a ponytail. Ahaan also wore a black custom made suit.
Looking at Ahaan, Tanu shook her head and said, "Who can say that such a handsome guy has anger disorder. It's okay, my friend, trust me. One day I will cure you."
"I have found the cure for my illness, Tanu. Just let her come to me, then I don't need you." Ahaan said with full attitude.
Hearing his words, Tanu made a face at him and said in a dramatic way, "Oh, who is that girl, who is bent on snatching my work from me? How ruthless is that girl, who is kicking me in the stomach. What will happen to me? Have you called a psychiatrist from another country?"
"She is not a psychiatrist. She is my doll. I don't know what positive vibes that girl has that as soon as I come to her, my anger vanishes into thin air. I wish I could give you a live demo." Ahaan told about Chahat.
"What's the matter, doll and all? Looks like your doll has started stealing this puppet's heart. If that girl is useful to you, then why don't you bring her to you? Any girl can come to reduce your anger for the amount of fees you pay me." Tanu advised. Although Ahaan paid her a hefty fee, as a friend, she wanted Ahaan to control his anger as soon as possible.
Ahaan agreed with her and then said sadly, "I told you my doll is different from everyone else. She is not at all greedy for money. That's the only reason I am not able to bring her to me. But it's okay, sooner or later she will have to come to me." While saying this, there was a lot of confidence in Ahaan's voice.
"Okay, bring her, but let's go to the party for now. I know you will show your face and come back from there, but I want to enjoy the party. I have heard that your brother is very handsome. Knowing your problem, I never even thought about seducing you. So why don't I seduce your brother and become your sister-in-law." Tanu said raising her eyebrows, on which Ahaan nodded without saying anything.
Tanu and Ahaan had left from there for the party. There, a surprise was standing ready for Ahaan ahead.
As soon as Ahaan reached the party, the media people started surrounding him. Ahaan's security guards removed them all and took him inside. Even in the party, the center of attraction for everyone was Ahaan Oberoi. As soon as Ahaan went inside, his eyes turned cold with anger as soon as he saw in front and he started back counting on his fingers.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Ayush's welcome party was going on at Oberoi Mansion. Ahaan also reached the party for the happiness of Shivani and Ayush. As soon as he moved his steps towards Oberoi Mansion, his eyes turned red with anger.
Ahaan's eyes were fixed straight ahead. There was Chahat in front, who was wearing a waitress's dress at the moment. As per the dress code, she wore a short black and red checking skirt and a white shirt on top. Her hair was tied in a ponytail. Chahat had a tray of drinks in her hand, which she was serving to the guests.
Ahaan took a deep breath, only to be interrupted by Tanu's voice. Tanu held Ahaan's hand and said, "We are here at the party, Ahaan, and you can't be angry. I'll get you a drink. Till then, you go and sit somewhere alone." Tanu was Ahaan's doctor. She understood just by looking at Ahaan's face that he was very angry at the moment.
Ahaan didn't want to react at that moment. He quietly obeyed Tanu and went and sat on a chair. Even then, his eyes were fixed on Chahat.
At the same time, Shivani and Ayush came to him after seeing Ahaan. They also sat near Ahaan.
Ayush was very happy to see Ahaan there. He put his hand on Ahaan's hand and said, "Thank you so much, brother, for coming here. The way you were busy yesterday, I didn't think you would come to the party."
"It was your welcome party, Ayush. I had to come." Ahaan replied softly.
Then Shivani looked at Ahaan's face. He looked quite calm, but a lot was going on in his heart. Ahaan's gaze was fixed on one side. Shivani followed his gaze and saw him looking at a girl who was serving drinks.
Shivani looked at Ahaan and asked in a stern tone, "Is everything alright, Ahaan?"
Hearing Shivani's words, Ahaan looked at them. Before Ahaan could answer her, Tanu came there with the drink. Answering on behalf of Ahaan, she said, "Yes, yes, aunty, everything is fine. Your son is so busy that even now he is worried about his meeting." Tanu smiled and sat near them and handed the glass to Ahaan.
Ayush looked at Tanu. He was meeting everyone after a long time. Although Tanu was their family friend, he already knew Tanu.
Trying to recognize Tanu, Ayush said, "If I am not wrong, you are Tanu, right? Tanisha Raichand? Raichand Uncle's daughter."
"Well, it's good that you haven't forgotten me yet. You have recognized me perfectly." Tanu replied and then shook hands with Ayush.
"You guys talk. I'll attend to the guests." Ahaan said and got up to go towards Chahat.
Ahaan went and stood near a group of businessmen so that he could stay around Chahat. The businessmen of that group were also happy to see him near them.
Ahaan had a glass of drink in his hand and was trying to get involved in their conversation by nodding in agreement with their words.
One of the men said, "These days, your company's stocks are skyrocketing, Mr. Oberoi. Help your father a little bit too. I heard his company isn't doing so well these days."
"His experience is more than mine, Mr. Mittal. He knows how to run his company better than me. I don't think he needs my advice," Ahaan replied.
Ahaan was getting irritated by their words. He thought of leaving from there, but just then he heard the words of a man standing behind him. He was also a businessman.
He said to the man standing next to him, "Did you see that waitress? She looks exactly like a doll."
"Yes, I saw her.... Anyway, there is nothing to worry about. Rohit Suri's team is managing this party. Give the waitress an extra tip or talk to Suri. She will be yours for tonight." The man standing next to him replied, winking.
Ahaan turned and looked at them. Both of them were almost over forty years old and looked fat. Ahaan tried to ignore their words. He thought they were talking about someone else.
Just then, one of the men said, "Wait, let me try it on her first. Anyway, girls like this easily agree for money." Saying this, the man gestured to Chahat to come towards him.
Anyway, Ahaan was standing around Chahat. He didn't know that they were talking about Chahat. On his gesture, Chahat smiled and started taking the drink to them, while seeing Chahat going to them, Ahaan clenched his fists in anger.
It was becoming difficult for Ahaan to control his anger now. Unaware of the intentions of those two men, Chahat was moving towards them. Just then, Ahaan put his foot in the middle and Chahat stumbled and fell. Once again, Chahat's drink fell on Ahaan's expensive suit, but this time, instead of being angry at Chahat, Ahaan had an evil smile on his face. Before Chahat could fall down, Ahaan had caught her.
At the same time, there was silence in the party suddenly. Everyone present in the party was looking towards Ahaan and Chahat. Ahaan was looking into Chahat's eyes.
Seeing them together, both the men immediately left from there. Chahat quickly moved away from Ahaan and hurriedly said sorry to him.
Ahaan didn't want Chahat to stay any longer in the party. Ahaan himself could not stay in the party for the whole time and protect Chahat, so he brought angry expressions on his face and shouted, "Sorry? You are just saying sorry to me for such a big mistake. This has happened for the second time. If you can't do your work properly, then who gives you work again and again."
"Sir, I didn't do it intentionally. I don't know, but someone put their foot in the middle while walking. I was walking perfectly fine, but my balance got disturbed when someone's foot came in the middle and I fell," Chahat tried to give her explanation.
Ahaan looked at Chahat with cold eyes and said, "Are you arguing with me? Who has called you here to the party and who has arranged this party?" Ahaan wanted to see Rohit Suri's face.
So that there is not much drama there, Rohit Suri quickly ran to his side. He was looking after the arrangement of the party. Anyway, nobody wants to mess with Ahaan Oberoi. Everyone wanted to do business with him instead of making him angry and ending his business.
Rohit Suri came to Ahaan and said, "I am sorry sir. A girl was needed at the moment and some of my staff were on emergency leave. Now this girl will not be seen in the party. I am sending her right now. Whatever she has done, she will go after saying sorry to you for it."
Hearing Rohit's words, Chahat also got angry. This time it was not her fault and she had learned that unless it is your fault, you should not bow down.
Chahat looked at Rohit with surprise and said, "Why should I say sorry? It's not my fault. When I am saying that someone deliberately dropped me. Then why are you people not believing me?" Chahat's voice was slightly loud.
Vijay Oberoi saw everything, so he said in his mind, "This boy has got into the habit of creating drama everywhere. What is the need to give so much importance to this little girl? Take her away from here by catching her... but no, he just has to create a scene."
Hearing Chahat's words, Rohit Suri also got angry. He grabbed Chahat's arm tightly and looking into her eyes angrily, said, "Just because you are beautiful in appearance doesn't mean you are a princess from somewhere. Don't forget your status, otherwise I know how to remind you properly."
Nobody got a chance to say anything and Rohit took Chahat out by grabbing her arm and dragging her. Ahaan was not understanding how to control his anger on this act of his. He just wanted to take Chahat out of there, but the way Rohit took Chahat away by holding her rudely was also not tolerable to him.
"You are not safe among these people, doll. Only I can keep you safe at my home and in my arms. Once you come to me, then no one will bother you," Ahaan said in his mind.
Rohit had taken Chahat out of the party. He had not even given her her payment. At the same time, Ahaan has now left the party, Ayush was coming behind him to talk, but Shivani stopped him.
Ahaan connected a man on the call and said to him, "Nikhil, I am speaking. I am sending you the link of an event management company. Its owner is Rohit Suri. Hack all his private data and sell the shares of his company at throwaway prices. Remember, by morning that man should be on the road for me. In the next 12 hours, I have to bankrupt him so that he also understands what the result of laying hands on Ahaan Oberoi's doll is."
"Okay sir, it will be done." Nikhil's voice came from the front. He was only 21 years old and worked as a hacker. He was a professional hacker and worked for Ahaan. So far, he had done a lot of work for Ahaan, which was not legal at all.
Nikhil immediately got to work, while Ahaan took his car and went to find Chahat. Chahat was waiting for the bus after being thrown out of the party. She had changed her dress. Anyway, she didn't wear such short clothes, so she was uncomfortable in them. Chahat was wearing a frock a little longer than her knees.
Chahat's eyes had a mixed expression of tears and anger. She muttered, "I remember very well that someone put their foot in my way. And what does this Ahaan Oberoi think of himself? Sometimes he says that I will help you. Come to me to do a job. Last time also, my job was gone because of him and this time also. With so much difficulty I got work at Rohit Suri's place. If I had done this work well, he would have called me again, but I don't know what problem this Ahaan Oberoi has with me."
Chahat was very angry with Ahaan in her mind. She was unaware of the fact that the Ahaan who insulted her in the party had also saved her from a big danger and now he was searching for her like a madman on the streets of Mumbai.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
After getting Chahat out of the Oberoi's party, Ahaan was searching for her on the streets of Mumbai. Chahat was standing at the bus stop, waiting for the bus to arrive.
When Ahaan couldn't find Chahat, he called Monty. As soon as Monty saw Ahaan's call, he understood that he must be calling to ask about Chahat. Monty was standing a little distance away from Chahat, and his eyes didn't leave her for even a second.
As soon as Monty picked up Ahaan's call, he said, "Ma'am is waiting for the bus here."
"At which stop?" Ahaan asked. He breathed a sigh of relief knowing Chahat's whereabouts.
"I am in the West. It was quite late, so I didn't think it was right to leave her alone. I have checked. The bus will arrive in the next ten minutes. Don't worry. I will go home only after dropping her home." Monty replied. He was doing his job well.
As soon as Monty told him, Ahaan checked his location. He was about fifteen minutes away from that stop. He told Monty, "I'll be there in ten minutes. Doll shouldn't get on the bus."
"Yes, sir." Monty agreed.
Ahaan quickly cut the call and reached the location given by Monty in about seven minutes. As soon as Monty saw his car, he left from there.
Ahaan got out of the car. He saw Chahat sitting with her head down. Her face had turned red from crying. Although she was not crying now.
Ahaan slowly went and sat next to Chahat. He said in a low voice, "Rohit Suri has a bad image. He sends the girls working for him to his VIP clients so that he can get more and more events. You are smart enough, so I don't need to tell you why he sends them to his clients." Ahaan told the whole truth directly.
Chahat was startled for a moment by Ahaan's voice. Then she looked at Ahaan's face and replied, "If he sent me somewhere, I would have refused. This is my problem. I would have handled it myself. You were the one who tripped me in the party, right, Ahaan?"
Hearing her name from Chahat's mouth brought a slight smile to Ahaan's face. He immediately normalized his facial expressions and said, "You are as innocent as you are beautiful. Such people know very well how to get their work done. What would you have done if he had sent you there by deceit?"
Chahat had no answer to Ahaan's words. She had never even taken self-defense training. After listening to Ahaan's words, the fire of hatred for all the men in the world started burning again in Chahat's heart.
Chahat took a deep breath and looked at Ahaan and said, "Thanks, Mr. Oberoi, for thinking so much about me. Still, I didn't like your way. Because of you, that man dragged me out in front of everyone at the party. You have no idea how I was feeling at that time." Chahat was behaving a little too maturely in front of Ahaan. Whatever was in her heart, she told Ahaan.
Ahaan also started getting angry at Chahat's words. Rohit Suri had really taken Chahat out of the party in a very bad way.
After pausing for a moment, Ahaan spoke again, "My ways may be wrong, Doll, but my intentions are good." Ahaan said, raising his eyebrows.
Chahat made a strange face hearing Doll for herself from Ahaan's mouth. Suddenly all her maturity vanished.
"Doll? Will you stop calling me Doll, Ahaan? I am a human, not a doll." Chahat said, standing up from the bench. She looked even cuter doing so.
Ahaan also stood up. He replied, "I told you, some people don't like my ways, but that doesn't mean they are wrong. Look at yourself once through my eyes, you look exactly like a doll. When did I say you are not human? You are human, who looks like a doll." For the first time, Ahaan had spoken so much to someone and all at once.
"Okay, but you still won't call me Doll." Chahat said.
Ahaan didn't get a chance to say anything further. He saw that Chahat's bus had arrived. The bus was already quite crowded and there were more male passengers due to the night time.
Chahat was about to get on the bus when Ahaan grabbed her hand and said, "I will drop you off and I don't want any arguments."
Chahat agreed to his words. This time she didn't argue either because the bus was really crowded. Ahaan gestured to Chahat to come to his car and started walking ahead himself.
Ahaan opened the car door for Chahat. Chahat got inside and sat down. Ahaan then came to the driving seat and started taking Chahat to her house.
On the way, Ahaan asked Chahat, "So what have you thought about coming to me?"
"Nothing. I told you that I have got a job. Then what is the need for me to come to you?" Chahat replied.
Ahaan continued, "And which job? Your job has been taken away for the second time because of me. Do one thing, come to my office tomorrow. Anyway, I had given you three days. Only one day is left in that. You don't need to wait for the time to pass. Come tomorrow."
"And if I don't come..." Chahat said in a challenging voice.
The expressions on the face of Ahaan, who was driving the car, suddenly started changing. He started getting angry listening to Chahat's tone. He looked at Chahat and said coldly, "Then even if you come and hold my feet, I won't help you. Yes, it may happen that no one else in Mumbai will give you a job."
Chahat didn't take Ahaan's words seriously. She said to trouble him, "Let's see that too. Anyway, tomorrow is the last day, Mr. Oberoi, and I bet you that I won't come to you."
"And I bet you, Doll, you are going to regret it for the rest of your life." Ahaan said, raising his eyebrows in a cold voice.
Chahat may not have taken Ahaan's words seriously, but Ahaan was really serious at that time.
They were talking, when Chahat's house came. Ahaan dropped her off and was about to leave, when Chahat leaned towards the car window and said, "Thank you, Mr. Oberoi. And yes, I am not coming."
"Good bye, Doll... Since you have already decided that you won't come, then maybe this is our last meeting." Ahaan replied and started the car.
Ahaan left from there and Chahat was watching him go. Ahaan's goodbye didn't affect her, while Ahaan, who was driving the car, started feeling pain in his chest. It was not easy for him to say goodbye to Chahat.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
What do you think, will Chahat come to Ahaan?
After leaving Chahat at her home, Ahaan was heading home. He had given Chahat three days to come to him. Only one day was left of those three days, and Chahat had refused to come to Ahaan for the job even yesterday. Due to his stubbornness, Ahaan had even told Chahat that if she didn't come tomorrow, even if she begged at his feet afterward, he wouldn't let her into his life.
Ahaan was extremely angry at the moment. The same Chahat who used to calm his anger was now the reason for his anger, and he was driving quite rashly.
"How could you, Doll? How could you do this to me? I'm putting in so much effort for you here, and you directly refused to come. I dare you, Doll, if you don't come tomorrow, you will be responsible for whatever happens to you afterward. You will have to come into my life, but in my way, and people often don't like my ways," Ahaan said in a cold voice.
Ahaan was very angry at the moment, and Chahat couldn't help him in any way. Ahaan then called Tanu, who was still at the party.
As soon as Tanu answered the call, Ahaan said in a loud voice, "Tanu, I'm getting angry. Do something to calm it down, or I'll kill someone. Trust me, if I kill the person I'm angry with, no one will regret it more than me."
Tanu could tell from Ahaan's voice what condition he was in. Ahaan had been dealing with this illness since childhood, and this was the final phase when Ahaan had no control over his anger. Neither medicines nor other therapies were working on him. Often, Tanu would tell Ahaan to take sleeping pills when he was angry so that he would forget everything when he slept. Now, it had gotten to the point where Ahaan couldn't even fall asleep with one or two pills. He had to take three to four pills at once to sleep for a while.
Tanu quickly left the party and said to Ahaan, "Just relax, Ahaan, okay, just relax. Take deep breaths and tell me where you are? I'm coming right now."
"I don't know where I am, but I'm going home right now. If anyone comes in my way and collides with my car on the way, I don't know what will happen," Ahaan replied. He looked at the GPS on his phone and saw that he was only about 5 minutes away from home. Ahaan continued, "Lucky I am that my house is only 5 minutes away. Please come quickly. I can't hold myself."
Ahaan was talking to Tanu when a person on a bicycle came in front of his car. Ahaan's car was moving at a high speed. He collided with the car and fell a few steps away.
Ahaan quickly braked and stopped the car, saying softly, "Why do I forget that I'm never lucky?"
Tanu was also in the car at this time and was heading towards Ahaan's house. She was connected to Ahaan on the call so that he wouldn't hurt himself. As soon as Ahaan braked, she knew that he had done something.
"I'll talk to you later, and you won't find me at my house now," Ahaan said and then hung up the call.
As soon as Ahaan hung up the call, Tanu mumbled softly, "His anger is increasing. If this continues... I don't want to see my friend in a mental asylum, especially not when he's so talented. Ahaan Oberoi's name is among the top businessmen in Asia. If this news gets out, everything will be ruined. I can't see Ahaan being destroyed. I have to talk to him about who can calm his anger. Ahaan has to get better." Even though Ahaan had forbidden Tanu from coming to his house, Tanu was going to Ahaan's house instead of going anywhere else.
On the other hand, Ahaan got out of the car. The person on the bicycle he had hit was a boy of about 20-22 years old, who was returning from his work. Due to the collision, his legs were tangled in the bicycle, and he had a minor head injury. It was clear from looking at his leg that he had a fracture.
Ahaan pulled him out of the bicycle and then lifted him into his car. Then, Ahaan came to the driver's seat and said to the boy, "We're going to the hospital."
"You were driving very fast. You should have paid attention in front of you. It's more important for me to go home. I'll take care of myself. Please drop me home," the boy said, groaning in pain. He looked very simple, and it was clear that it was really important for him to go home at this time, so he was focusing more on going home, forgetting about his injury.
"I'm taking you to the hospital. If you have any work at home, tell me. I'll inform your family," Ahaan replied and started the car.
The boy was silent for a moment. Then he said softly, "My sister is a cancer patient. I work for her. Her condition had deteriorated, so I was going home from my night duty."
Hearing the boy's words, Ahaan also stopped for a moment. He was also confused whether it was more important for the boy to go to his sister at this time or to the hospital.
Ahaan thought for a moment and then said without any emotion, "Is her condition so bad that she could die?"
"Why are you saying such things? Why would my sister die? Her condition is bad, but she's undergoing treatment. She'll be fine," the boy replied in a slight anger. First, Ahaan had hit him, and on top of that, he was talking to him quite rudely.
Ahaan took a deep breath and said, "Then it's more important for you to go to the hospital. As for your sister, I'll inform her at home, and yes, if you need money for her treatment, let me know. You seem like a good person, otherwise, whoever I've hit, they react so badly that..." Ahaan stopped while speaking. He didn't want to tell what he did to them in anger when they reacted badly.
"So you have accidents every day. You should drive carefully. Your life can also be in danger. Looking at your car and you, it seems that you are not an ordinary person, sir," the boy gave his advice, which Ahaan completely ignored.
In a short while, the hospital arrived. Ahaan got him admitted to the hospital and left after paying his fees in advance.
______________
On the other hand, Chahat reached her house. She had told Ahaan not to come tomorrow and had not taken Ahaan's words too seriously.
As soon as she came upstairs, her mother and grandmother were looking at her in surprise because Shradha had said that Chahat would be staying out all night for work. She had come home before the night was over, which meant that she must have messed something up again.
"It seems you messed up someone's work again, and they fired you from your job without paying you," said Chahat's mother, Nisha, looking at Chahat's face.
Her mother understood everything just by looking at her face, so Chahat was also surprised. She shook her head and said, "I understand that I was fired, but how did you know that I was fired without pay?"
"Because your eyes are red, which means you've been crying," Parvati ji replied instead of Nisha.
Then Chahat became silent. She didn't say anything further. Her eyes were downcast, and tears started flowing from her eyes again. Chahat said, sobbing, "I'm not able to do anything for you both. Neither am I good at studies nor at other work. You both are having problems because of me."
Seeing Chahat crying, Nisha immediately went to her and hugged her. She said, caressing Chahat, "However you are, you have a very good heart, and you'll see, because of your goodness and honesty, you will definitely win someone's heart."
"Goodness and honesty can't earn money. I've learned that," Chahat said softly.
"Okay, then do what you're good at. From tomorrow, you won't do any work and will go to college and attend regular classes. If you're not good at studies, then become good. Work day and night so that you can get a decent job. I don't want to see you working as a waitress and doing other small jobs, Chahat," Nisha said to Chahat in stern words, separating from her.
Chahat had also thought the same now. She was unnecessarily ignoring her studies by getting involved in other small jobs. She agreed with Nisha's words.
Then suddenly she thought of her household expenses. Chahat said, "Household expenses..."
Nisha understood very well what Chahat was trying to say. She interrupted Chahat and said, "You don't need to worry about that. I've talked to Ravi Uncle. I'm good at cooking. Mom and I will be cooking for his restaurant, and he has also talked about starting a tiffin service, so we'll see. Yes, if you get time from your studies, you can help."
Now Chahat could study without any worries. It was clear from Nisha's face that her health was also fine now, so she was thinking of working. Chahat agreed with them and thought of focusing on her studies instead of working now. At the same time, she was also happy in her heart that she had said no to Ahaan for tomorrow. That challenge would also be fulfilled, and she wouldn't have to go to anyone for a job.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Aahan was returning home after Chahat left his house. Being angry at Chahat, Aahan was driving quite fast and unknowingly hit a cyclist. After taking the boy to the hospital, Aahan was returning home.
This time, Aahan was definitely angry but driving very carefully. Aahan reached home around 2:00 am. As soon as he parked the car and started to go inside, he saw Tanu, who was still standing there waiting for him.
Aahan looked at Tanu and shook his head. He went to her and said softly, "I told you not to come home."
"I also tell you not to do so many things. Do you listen to me that I should listen to you?" Tanu raised her eyebrows and then looked at Aahan from head to toe. Showing concern on her face, Tanu said, "Are you okay?"
"Yes, I am absolutely fine, and the boy I hit wasn't hurt much either." Aahan replied quite carelessly and started to go inside. He gestured for Tanu to follow him.
Tanu was following Aahan into the room. They both reached the living area room. Aahan brought a bottle of wine for them and served it in two glasses. He raised a glass towards Tanu and said, "Looks like your job is going to be quite long, or rather, you will never get rid of this job."
"How can that be? A little while ago you were saying that you might find someone who can control your anger. I thought my job was in danger, and now you are saying that my job is not going to go away for life. You are confusing me. Say what you want to say directly." Tanu said a little aggressively. She was getting confused by Aahan's words.
"The person is a girl. She is quite young, not that young, but younger than both of us. She is very beautiful to look at. She has small grey eyes, and when I look into them, I get lost somewhere, and my anger disappears." Aahan was telling Tanu about Chahat. While telling about her, Chahat's face was flashing before Aahan's eyes, and there was a small smile on his face.
Tanu had seen Aahan smile genuinely like this on very few occasions. Seeing Aahan smile, a smile also appeared on her face. She said in the same tone, "Oh, so say that you have fallen in love with her."
"I can't say love, but there is an attraction. I like her. But the problem is that she has clearly refused to work for me. I can't even talk to her directly about why I want to bring her to me. What if she gets scared and runs away..." Aahan stopped speaking, and the expressions on his face became serious again.
"Oh, so you are also afraid of losing and then say it's not love. If you say, I can try talking to her, maybe she will agree. You must not have put a good salary proposal in front of her." Tanu replied. She was taking sips of wine while talking to Aahan.
Aahan thought for a few moments and then said, "If it was a matter of money, I would have brought her home by now. She is a different type. She also needs a job, but still, she doesn't want to come to me. The problem here is that I had given her three to four days, and tomorrow is the last day. When I went to drop her home, she clearly refused that she would not come tomorrow either. You know my anger. I also told her that if she doesn't come tomorrow, I will never let her come into my life. Even if she begs for help by grabbing my feet, I will not help her, even though I know very well how much she needs money and a job." Aahan told Tanu all the things between him and Chahat. Anyway, she was his psychiatrist, so Aahan had to tell her every single thing and secret for therapy. Yes, there were some things that Aahan kept hidden from Tanu.
If Tanu had known Aahan's dark secrets, then what, no girl would have done his therapy, and at this time he would have been lying in a mental asylum.
After knowing the whole thing, Tanu took a deep breath and then said while thinking something, "If I am not wrong, then this is the same girl for whom you made a scene at the party? I know you well. You must have dropped that girl yourself, otherwise, if someone else had been in her place and she had spilled a drink on you, you would have slapped her in front of everyone, but you didn't do that and quietly let her go."
"Yes, she is the same and I deliberately created that scene so that I could get her out of the party. Now stop talking about her and tell me how I can bring the doll to me tomorrow." Aahan said slightly annoyed. He wanted a solution to his problem, not to talk about his problem.
"First of all, you have to give up your stubbornness that if that girl doesn't come to you after tomorrow, you will never let her come into your life. Will you forget her so easily?" Tanu asked Aahan. Aahan's nature was not such that if he liked something, he would let it go so easily.
On Tanu's question, Aahan had an evil smile on his face. He said in reply, "Do you really think I will do that? She will have to come to me, but then in my way..."
"No, you will not kidnap her and definitely not keep her forcibly." Tanu replied immediately. Who could understand the meaning of Aahan's every word better than her? Then suddenly something struck her mind. So she made her face serious and asked slowly, "Look, I helped you last time. Don't tell anyone about this. By the way, you have left her, haven't you?"
"Don't talk about her. I told you I left her the next day." Aahan replied immediately. He didn't want to talk about it, so he said good night to Tanu and went to his room.
Tanu was still sitting there. She was looking towards Aahan's room where the light had been turned off. Then she said to herself, "If Aahan has left her, then why is she still missing? I hope nothing wrong has happened to her."
After Aahan left, Tanu also started to leave from there. She didn't feel for a moment that Aahan could also lie to her. According to her, Aahan used to tell her everything, but yes, it depended on Aahan to what extent he was telling her which thing.
______________
The next morning, Chahat woke up. The excitement of going to college was clearly visible on her face. When she didn't have a job, she used to wake up late, but today Chahat had woken up and got ready on time. She had styled herself according to going to college. She had worn baggy denim pants and a crop top and made a funky hairstyle.
Chahat was almost ready by 9 o'clock and when she came out, her mother and grandmother were making breakfast for her in the kitchen. Shraddha was also with them.
Seeing Chahat, Nisha shook her head and said, "Beta, what was the need to trouble Shraddha? I would have taken care of it myself."
"Oh, it's okay aunty, I will give you company. Now I am not like your daughter, who is still in the second year even at this age. By now, her college should have been over with me, but only if Madam attends regular classes..." Shraddha said, diverting the matter. Then she held Chahat's hand and took her away from them both.
As soon as Chahat came away from Parvati and Nisha, she hugged Shraddha. She said very softly, "Thank you so much yaar for taking care of mom in my absence. Until I am satisfied that she is completely fine, I cannot let her work. Today you will monitor her all day. Only if she is able to work without any problem, then I will give her permission to work." While speaking, Chahat separated from Shraddha. She was explaining everything to her well.
"Yes Devi Maa, I have understood well. You have told me this four times since last night. Now you go to college without any worry. Take notes from me and call immediately if you don't understand anything." While speaking, Shraddha folded her hands in front of Chahat, on which Chahat smiled slightly.
Chahat had breakfast and then left for college. The same Monty was behind Chahat. As soon as he saw Chahat entering the college, he was also surprised. He called Aahan and immediately told him everything.
"How can she suddenly go to college instead of looking for a job. Doesn't she want to work? She is not so educated that she will get any job there." Aahan said in shock. He had been preparing so far that Chahat should not get a job anywhere and she would be forced to come to him, but here everything was happening the other way round. Chahat had gone to college instead of looking for a job.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Chahat now thought about completing her studies first instead of doing a job. Leaving her mother and grandmother with respect, Chahat had come to college. She was attending a class in college after a whole 2 months, so she felt quite hesitant while going inside. Monty was right behind her.
Monty was connected with Ahaan on a call. Following Chahat, Monty said, "Sir, she has come here for studies only. She has a bag in her hand and is going towards the class."
"I know that she is a student, so she might be going to submit some assignment or something. You do one thing, enter her class on some pretext and stay with her for a while," Ahaan replied and cut the call.
Monty was not very old. He was probably only a little older than Chahat and also looked young, so no one suspected him. He gave money to a boy and took his ID and books so that they could be useful to him if needed. Monty also went into the class behind Chahat.
Chahat's teacher came to the class. When she saw Chahat there after a long time, she glared at her strangely and then got back to her work. Chahat was also engrossed in attending the class with full dedication. She didn't have any friends, so she was sitting alone on a separate bench.
On the other hand, Ahaan was busy with his work. He had come to a hotel to attend his meeting. Ahaan had been waiting for the client to arrive for the last 10 minutes when the client called that he could not attend the meeting. Ahaan used to get angry at small things, so this was a very big deal. He broke the glass kept there in anger.
"Do people think I am a fool that they call me just like that to waste my time? How dare he waste Ahaan Oberoi's time?" Ahaan said angrily and immediately called his manager. He said to the manager on the call, "Mr. Das, when Mr. Raghavani did not have to come here for the meeting, then what was the point of wasting my time? We are not going to do any project with Raghavani. Also, look into the projects that are going on in the back, what is the contract time for them. If the contract is not ending soon, then find new clients by giving compensation."
"Yes sir, Mr. Raghavani is not such a person, he must have been stuck in some work. I will call and ask the reason for his not coming, maybe..." Mr. Das was trying to explain to Ahaan. He was about 50 years old and also much older than him in experience.
Ahaan was very angry at that time. He did not even let Mr. Das finish his sentence and interrupted him saying, "Mr. Das, time has value and the person who does not value time, that person has no importance in my eyes. If he could not come, then he should have told beforehand. Do what I have said. I don't want to hear people's excuses. If I start listening to people's excuses and trying to solve them, then my business will be ruined." Ahaan had given his final orders. He did not want to do any further work with Mr. Raghavani now.
"Okay sir, as you see fit," Mr. Das said in a low voice. Then Ahaan cut the call, and he got down to the work he had told him.
Ahaan's meeting was suddenly canceled, so he did not think it right to stay there. He left from there to go back. Ahaan had barely taken a few steps out of the meeting room when he heard someone's voice from a room. That voice seemed familiar to him, so Ahaan's steps stopped there.
A man's voice came from inside. He said in stern words, "Why don't you understand Damini, I also love you very much but I can't do anything even if I want to while Shivani is there." It was Vijay Oberoi. Ahaan's father, who was with a woman.
Ahaan knew the woman who was present inside very well. Hearing her voice, his fists clenched. Ahaan had no interest in standing there and listening to their conversation, but his mother was mentioned there. Shivani Oberoi, whom he loved the most and because of whom he was tolerating Vijay Oberoi.
Ahaan stopped there and started listening to their conversation. Inside, Damini said angrily, "How long should I wait for him? Huh? I have been waiting for him for the last 20 years, and she is not going anywhere. I think she will not even die easily, and you will never be mine, Vijay." Damini was a TV actress who was about 40 years old. She must have been 12 to 13 years younger than Vijay Oberoi.
Being a TV actress, Damini was quite well-maintained and beautiful. About 5 feet 6 inches tall, a perfect figure and skin even at that age, which she had made even better through various beauty treatments. Damini was very beautiful to look at. At one time, she used to play lead roles in TV serials, but now because of her age, she had stopped getting lead roles. She definitely did side roles, but even then, her characters were always considered powerful.
Ahaan took a deep breath and said to himself, "This man is not going to give up. How dare he say that my mother will not even die. It seems his days are also numbered."
Ahaan felt like going inside and breaking Damini's face. He was even about to go inside, but hearing Vijay Oberoi's voice, his steps stopped outside again.
Vijay took Damini's face in his hands and said, "Baby, there is no point in getting angry. That's enough. Now I can't tolerate her anymore either. Now is the time to do something solid. Shivani has to be removed from the way. I will take care of Ayush, but Ahaan..." Vijay stopped while speaking. It was because of Ahaan that he had not been able to move his relationship with Damini forward until now. Ahaan had almost ruined his company through his business, and only he knew this.
Changing the subject, Vijay said, "My remaining respect and company are because I am associated with Shivani. If Ahaan finds out that I have removed Shivani from the way and married you, then he will force me to beg, and I know that boy very well. He will not sit quietly in this matter."
"And who will tell Ahaan? I have a good plan by which Shivani's death will seem like a normal accident. We have been living apart for the last 20 years, so one more year is fine. You do such a drama in front of Ahaan for a year as if you are very shocked by Shivani's departure. Ahaan will leave you to your condition, then we both will get married." Damini explained her entire plan. She had already waited a lot, and now it was becoming difficult for her to wait.
There were no distances between Vijay Oberoi and Damini except for marriage, but to show in society, she could not live without marriage either. Damini wanted her surname to be Oberoi by any means, for which she could go to any extent.
Vijay Oberoi agreed to her point and said, "By the way, the plan is quite good. To be honest, I never loved that Shivani. The family forcibly got us married, then we had children, but look, you met me at the right time, darling. I love you so much, and I can take anyone's life for you. Shivani doesn't matter to me anyway. She is so stupid that even if someone brings my entire truth in front of her, she will still worship me as her supreme husband. That's the only reason why Ahaan has not been able to tell her anything true till now."
"And we have to take advantage of Ahaan's weakness, Vijay. First, we planned to distract Ahaan by getting him married to your business partner's daughter, but who knows where that girl also ran away at the last moment. I don't want our plan to be unsuccessful. I will talk to you only after planning everything. Don't meet me till then. Just understand that Shivani's days are now numbered." Damini said in one breath and then went close to Vijay and started kissing his lips.
Ahaan had heard as much as he had to hear. Anyway, he had no interest in listening to their intimate moments and the sounds of pleasure coming from the room. Ahaan immediately left from there and was so angry at this time that he felt like taking Vijay Oberoi's life.
Ahaan reached his car and said angrily, punching the steering wheel, "I...I explained to Mom to stay away from that man, but she doesn't understand. I don't know what her problem is, she sees that man as God, but that devil has ruined my life. I left no stone unturned to ruin him, but because of Mom, I can't even bring him to the streets. But this time it's about my Mom's life. I dare you Vijay Oberoi, I will not spare you and your girlfriend."
Ahaan was taking deep breaths in anger, and at this time he wanted to talk to Tanu. That's why he was going straight to Tanu's clinic. There he had made the biggest mistake in the world by listening to the half-finished words of Vijay Oberoi and Damini.
About 2 hours later, Vijay and Damini were on the bed, and their clothes were scattered around. Damini put her head on Vijay's chest and said, "Don't worry Vijay, today is your wife's last night or rather, a few hours of her life are left. Just wait a little, the good news will be coming soon."
In a few moments, Damini had changed her plan. Earlier, she wanted to kill Shivani only after planning everything properly. Suddenly she decided to kill Shivani tonight itself, while Ahaan, unaware of all this, was going to Tanu's clinic to calm his anger.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Ahaan had come to a hotel for a meeting. His meeting was canceled, but while returning, he overheard his dad, Mr. Vijay Oberoi, and his girlfriend, Damini, talking. They were plotting to murder his mother, Shivani.
Hearing their conversation, Ahaan's anger reached its peak. In such situations, his anger would get out of control, and he would start harming himself or the people around him. Ahaan needed to control his anger because he had to save his mom, Shivani.
To calm his anger, Ahaan went to Tanu. Tanu had already cleared the therapy room. Ahaan drove fast to reach Tanu's clinic as soon as possible.
As soon as Tanu saw Ahaan, she said, "Come on, hurry up. I don't know why tragedies keep happening in your life? Your anger just doesn't seem to subside."
"Yes, because the person responsible for my condition is the same, and he's not stopping his actions. Do something about my anger, or else I'll kill that person," Ahaan replied. He was breathing heavily because his anger was not under control.
Tanu checked Ahaan's BP, which was quite high at the moment. She gave Ahaan some medicines and then gave him an injection. Despite doing all this, Ahaan's anger was bursting.
Tanu, who had been observing him for the past 15 minutes and was trying her best to lower his BP, looked at Ahaan and said, "It's not right for you to be angry like this. It's affecting not only your mental health but also your physical health."
"I don't care about that, Tanu. You won't believe how low Vijay Oberoi has stooped. He's plotting to murder my mom with that so-called girlfriend of his. I have to save Mom. Please do something, Tanu, I need to think with a cool head, and if I keep getting angry like this, I won't be able to think anything," Ahaan said in a pleading way.
This was the first time Ahaan wanted to reduce his anger on his own. Every time, he didn't care whether he was getting so angry or whether he was harming someone in his anger. This was a kind of positive sign.
Tanu held Ahaan's hand and said, "Close your eyes and think about the things that make you happy. Thinking about which your anger automatically calms down. Like your favorite food, music, or a place where you find peace." Tanu was giving Ahaan different ideas so that he could think about them and calm his anger. At the same time, she was also observing Ahaan's BP level.
Ahaan was trying his best. While giving him ideas, Tanu said, "Why don't you think about the girl who calms your anger? Let's talk about her. What's her name?" To distract Ahaan, Tanu was asking him different kinds of questions.
Hearing Tanu's words, Chahat's face started flashing in Ahaan's mind. Her small gray eyes, sharp little nose, and repeatedly pressing the corner of her lower lip under her teeth while speaking. Thinking about all this, a faint smile appeared on Ahaan's face. The scene was flashing before his eyes when Chahat had first come close to him and he had kissed Chahat. Chahat had a mole slightly below her right eye, which looked very cute on her face.
Answering Tanu's question, Ahaan said, "Her name is Chahat Sharma. I found out a little bit about her. She is 21 years old."
"Oh, so you've found out quite a bit about her. Tell me, when is Chahat's birthday?" Tanu said, continuing the conversation. She couldn't think of anything else, so she just asked about Chahat's birthday.
"January 1st, when the whole world is welcoming the new year, my doll came into this world on the same day," Ahaan replied.
While talking about Chahat, Tanu also noticed that Ahaan's anger was decreasing. Along with that, his BP was becoming normal. Tanu took out a chocolate and put it in Ahaan's mouth, saying, "How are you feeling, Ahaan?"
"Just like I felt when I kissed my doll for the first time," Ahaan said while eating the chocolate.
"Okay, now slowly open your eyes. We'll talk normally and continue the session. I'm going to ask you some harsh questions. Please don't get angry and think with a cool head," Tanu said and then snapped her fingers. With this, Ahaan slowly started opening his eyes.
Ahaan's anger was now largely under control. Then he told Tanu everything he had heard Vijay Oberoi and Damini say.
Tanu, who was a very calm and thoughtful girl who handled every matter carefully, also got angry after knowing the whole thing. Tanu said in a stern voice, "How can a person stoop so low as to plan his own wife's murder? Shivani aunty is really very naive. Ahaan, you need to secure her first."
"That's what I was thinking. I have to bring Mom to my house on some pretext. Ayush has also come, so I hope he can help me," Ahaan replied. Then he looked at the time on his watch, it was 5 pm. First Mr. Raghavani, then Vijay Oberoi, and then Ahaan's anger had wasted a lot of his time.
Before leaving from there, Ahaan hugged Tanu and said thank you, and then said, "If you weren't there, I don't know what would have happened to me. I'm going to pick up Mom, I'll meet you later."
After saying bye to Tanu, Ahaan left from there. Meanwhile, Vijay Oberoi and Damini were still together. They were both in the same hotel room and were connected to someone on a call.
A boy's voice came from the other side, and he said, "Madam, are you sure that the woman has to be eliminated now? Nighttime is right. Not many people are present at that time."
"Do as you are told. If you do something wrong in broad daylight instead of the darkness of night, people won't suspect you," Damini replied. It was the same man she had hired.
"First, tell me if she has come out of the spa or not... or does she intend to stay there all day?" Vijay Oberoi said.
Shivani had gone to the spa at that time. Vijay Oberoi kept track of her every moment. This spa was built in a slightly outer area. Because of this, it was easy to carry out an accident there.
Before hanging up the call, Damini said in a loud voice, "Everything else is fine, but that woman should not survive. If she survives, I will not leave you alive."
The man agreed with Damini and cut the call. He was waiting for Shivani to come out in a big pickup truck. He had loaded the car with goods. He didn't have to wait long because after 15 minutes, Shivani came out of the spa.
As Shivani was walking towards her car, suddenly a pickup truck came from behind and threw Shivani into the air. The next moment she fell on the ground and blood was coming out of her forehead.
Because the place was built in an outer area, there were very few people around. In such a situation, getting help was also not easy.
____________________________
In Chahat's absence, Shraddha had a good day with Nisha. Nisha was working wholeheartedly. She cooked food according to the preferences of everyone who came to Mr. Ravi's restaurant throughout the day and completed the orders that came for tiffin service during the afternoon. In the meantime, she did not fall ill even once, and Shraddha was the happiest to see this.
Around 6 pm, Nisha and Shraddha were waiting for Chahat to come together. While waiting for Chahat, they were peeling peas and talking to each other.
"You'll see, now Chahat will study diligently, and she will also get a degree like you. After studying well, she will get a good job, then my Chahat won't have to wander here and there," Nisha Ji said while peeling peas. Her eyes were fixed on the door. Suddenly, she had a severe cough, and with that cough, she vomited a lot of blood.
Shraddha was shocked to see her condition. Before she could think anything, Nisha had fainted.
"Nani, Nani, please come here quickly. See what has happened to Aunty. Please come quickly..." Shraddha said, shouting. She was scared to see Nisha's condition. Parvati Ji quickly ran to Nisha and was very scared to see the blood scattered there.
"What-what happened to my daughter, Chahat is also not at home. Nisha... Nisha, open your eyes," Parvati Ji said, coming to Nisha and trying to lift her, but it was all in vain.
Shraddha and Parvati Ji both got scared when Nisha didn't regain consciousness. Shraddha somehow gathered courage and said to Parvati Ji, "You don't need to worry, Nani. We'll take Aunty to the hospital." Shraddha controlled her nervousness and replied. She couldn't panic in such a situation. On top of that, Chahat wasn't there either.
"But Chahat hasn't come yet. How will we take Nisha to the hospital without her?" Parvati Ji said in a panic.
"Nani, don't worry, this hospital is known to me. I will call Chahat, so she will come there. First, we will take Aunty to the hospital. We'll talk about everything else later," Shraddha somehow explained to Nani and then took her to a private hospital with the help of the neighbors.
As soon as she arrived there, Nisha was taken under observation. Her every test was being done. Parvati Ji was very scared because Chahat was not there, and now she was afraid for Chahat, while the most unaware Chahat was very happy to be back in her college.
On one hand, Shivani had met with an accident, and on the other hand, Chahat's mother Nisha's condition had also deteriorated to a great extent. Shraddha and Parvati Ji took Nisha to the hospital and got her admitted there. Some tests were being conducted on Nisha. After seeing her condition, the doctor had already understood that the situation was quite critical, and he had taken her under observation.
Outside, in the waiting area, Parvati Ji and Shraddha were waiting for Chahat to arrive. Shraddha had called Chahat and asked her to come to the hospital. Chahat, too, had understood that something must have happened to Nisha's health.
Chahat rushed to the hospital, tears in her eyes, and hugged Shraddha as soon as she arrived. She said, sobbing, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have gone out. I couldn't take care of Mom. She left that person for me who tried to do something wrong with me. But I couldn't do anything for her." Chahat was extremely angry with herself for being so helpless, not having done her studies properly, and not being able to get a job.
Shraddha consoled her, saying, "You're worrying unnecessarily. Auntie will be fine. It's just a minor setback. I got her admitted to the hospital just to be on the safe side." Shraddha didn't reveal the full extent of Nisha's health condition to Chahat, as she knew that if she did, Chahat would be overwhelmed with grief.
Chahat nodded in agreement and went to sit beside Parvati Ji, holding her hand and saying, "Don't worry, Nani. Everything will be alright. Mom will get better. Doctors do tests just to be sure."
Parvati Ji agreed with her, her eyes welling up with tears. She felt sorry for Chahat, who was already shouldering so much responsibility and now had to deal with her mother's illness.
Parvati Ji looked at Chahat and said softly, "As soon as your mom's health improves, I'll leave this place. I've heard there are many old-age homes in the city."
Chahat reacted, "Nani, why are you saying such things? You can't stay in an old-age home when I'm here. I told you not to worry; everything will be alright."
Shraddha sat beside them and said, "Chahat is right, Nani. You don't have to worry. And I have some good news - my dad has connections here, so we'll get Auntie the best care possible."
The three of them sat there, trying to show courage to each other, but deep down, they were all worried. Parvati Ji was concerned about becoming a burden on Nisha and Chahat, while Chahat was anxious about her mother's health and her own inability to take care of her. Shraddha was worried about Nisha's condition, which she had witnessed firsthand, and the gravity of which she hadn't disclosed to Chahat.
On the other side, after Damini's goons had pushed Shivani into the accident, they had fled the scene. They informed Damini and Vijay about Nisha's attempt on her life.
Vijay showed no remorse upon hearing about Shivani's death, instead smiling shamelessly. He hugged Damini and said, "Sorry, darling, I won't be able to meet you for a few days. I need to observe some decorum after my wife's passing."
The two of them laughed, relieved that their plan had succeeded. Vijay left for his office, careful not to arouse Ahan's suspicion.
Meanwhile, Shivani lay injured on the road. A man emerged from the bushes, took out his phone, and said, "Your suspicion was correct, sir. They pushed the lady into an accident. I'm taking her to the hospital; you can come quickly."
He ended the call, picked Shivani up, and rushed her to the nearest hospital.
Ahan's eyes blazed with anger as he listened to the man's report. He had been suspicious of Vijay and Damini and had secretly sent his bodyguard to keep an eye on Shivani.
As soon as Ahan learned about Shivani's accident, he slammed his fist on the steering wheel and swore to take revenge on Vijay.
He immediately called one of his men and ordered, "I want this woman found and brought to me within two hours."
The man on the other end expressed his concerns about the tight deadline, but Ahan insisted.
He sent the details of the woman, Damini, and ordered her to be kidnapped.
Ahan wasn't concerned about the potential consequences, as he knew his man would get the job done.
He headed straight to the hospital where Shivani was being taken, with Tanu on her way to help calm him down.
Ahan and Chahat arrived at the hospital, both of their mothers' lives in danger.
