Ep IV [Tere Bin]

Raghav turned to Aditi, "Stay here okay I'll be back in a minute," He said, before going towards Jivika. He wanted to congratulate her even though she had cheated on him. He wanted to let her know that he had moved on from her, he was not going to get hurt again.

Seeing him coming towards her Jivika smirk, "I didn't thought that you would actually come, Raghav." she said, forwarding her hands for a shake, Raghav glance at it before nodding his head. Not giving her what she wants, her jaw tightened before pulling back her hand.

Raghav resisted the urge to smirk back at Jivika. He knew that showing any sign of satisfaction or satisfaction would only fuel her ego further. Instead, he maintained a calm and composed demeanor.

"I wanted to congratulate you, Jivika," he said coolly, his voice devoid of any hint of emotion. "It seems like you've found someone who can tolerate your deceitful ways."

Jivika's face faltered for a moment, and a flash of anger passed through her eyes. She quickly composed herself, putting on a fake smile.

"Well, I'm glad to see that you're moving on too," she retorted, the sarcasm dripping from her words. "But don't worry, Raghav. I'll always hold a special place in your heart." She tilted her head, a smug expression crossing her face.

Raghav's jaw clenched, but he refused to let her get to him. He knew that reacting to her taunts would only give her the satisfaction she craved.

"I've learned my lesson, Jivika," he replied firmly. "I won't make the same mistake twice." With that, he turned away, leaving Jivika standing there, her frown deepening.

As he walked back towards Aditi, he couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. Aditi smiled at him, "did you congratulate her?" She asked not knowing what they actually talked about. He nodded at her with smile before placing his palm on her small back, making her breath hitched.

His eyes went towards Jivika, who was glaring at him and the beautiful lady beside him, Aditi.

Aditi glance at him, she doesn't know why her heart beats of fast everytime he was near, 'am I in love with him?' her eyes admire his, the hazel eyes of him are so addictive, that she can just stare at them and never get bored.

The way he smile, that smile can lighten the a pitch dark room, that smile can bring sunshine on a gloomy day. And the mole on his upper, that's inviting her to kiss it.

'stop it! Aditi! He helped you because he felt sympathy for you, stop taking his kindness as love'

Aditi snapped out of her daydream, shaking her head slightly to clear her thoughts. She knew she had to be realistic and not let her heart deceive her. Raghav was just being friendly and supportive, nothing more.

She looked up at Raghav, who was still smiling at her. She returned the smile, trying to hide the turmoil within her.

Raghav's smile widened, and he squeezed her right arm gently. "May I have a dance with the most beautiful lady I've ever seen?"

Aditi felt a warmth spread through her at his words, but she quickly reminded herself not to read too much into it. She couldn't afford to let herself fall for someone who may not feel the same way about her.

She laughed a bit trying hide her feelings, "s... sure but I don't know how to dance" she admitted, Raghav just glance down at her with love in his eyes, "just follow my steps and also-" he leaned towards the ear, making her gulp "I won't mind you stepping on my shoes" he came to his full height, and gave her a wink.

Aditi's heart skipped a beat at his words, and she couldn't help but feel a flicker of hope. Maybe there was something more between them after all.

As they made their way to the dance floor, Aditi tried to steady her nerves. She had never been this close to Raghav before, and she couldn't deny the growing attraction she felt towards him.
