Moonstruck:Once in a lifetime ✔️

✨Chapter:56✨

"Shreya beta kaisi haii?" Surbhi's mother was first shock to see Shreya there.
(How are you shreya?)

"Mai thik hu aunty. Aap kaisi hai?" Shreya asked.
(I'm fine.. How are you?)

"You know each other?" Minakshi asked in confusion.

"Yes.. She is Shreya... Surbhi's friend." Surbhi's mother replied.

"Really? You never told about that Surbhi." Arjun exclaimed. Surbhi flashed a nervous laugh.

"By the way Shreya is my PA." Arjun said.

"Oh." Minakshi said.

On the other side

Aman tapped Ekansh's shoulder. Ekansh looked at his direction. Aman signalled him to bend down as he want to convey something.

"You know she's the best friend I was talking about that day." Aman whispered in Ekansh's ear.

"Ohh that's why Surbhi was behaving weird that day." Ekansh whispered back.

"You know maa and papa don't know about their broken friendship. They still think that Shreya di and Surbhi di are friends." Aman whispered.

"Oh." Ekansh whispered.

They both regain their posture when they saw Surbhi looking toward them with suspicious eyes. They both turned their face to other direction.

"Ok now let's cut the cake." Dada ji said gaining everybody's attention.

Disha then brought the cake from the freeze.

Ekansh lit up the candles and throws the matchstick somewhere.

Surbhi first blow the candles and then cut the cake.

"Happy birthday to you."
"Happy birthday dear Surbhi."
"Happy birthday to you." Everyone sang the song.

After the cake cutting everyone gave gifts to Surbhi.

Minakshi gifted her a beautiful saree. And Rajveer gave her a stunning ring. Moving on Dada ji gifted her a Krishna sculpture. Disha gifted her some book marks and novels. Arjun gave her a box of chocolates.

"Thank you everyone." Surbhi thanked everyone.

"Wo toh thik hai.. Cake kb milega." Arjun whinned.
(When we are getting cake?)

"Wait I will bring." Minakshi said.

"Maa I'm coming too." Surbhi said and went to kitchen with Minakshi.

Now Minakshi and Surbhi were in the kitchen. While everyone else are in the Hall chit chatting with each other.

"Arjun come here for a moment!" Ekansh said.

"Ok." Arjun said and followed Ekansh outside.

They both reached the garden.

"Arjun... I'm leaving mafia.. . I want to leave all this and start a new.. A safe life with my Surbhi." Ekansh said. His tone was serious and genuine at the same time.

Arjun just smiled and hugged Ekansh.

"I'm proud of you." Arjun said. Ekansh smiled.

"Now let's go... Warna mera cake kisine kha liya toh." Arjun said.
(What if someone eats my cake?)

"You go.. I'm coming after sometime." Ekansh said. Arjun nodded and left.

A minute after Arjun left. Shreya came in the garden.

"Hello Mr.Raghuvanshi." Shreya said to Ekansh who was looking at the sky.

Ekansh turned his head towards her direction.

"I have something to talk about." Shreya said.

"But i don't wanna talk." Ekansh said and started to leave but stopped in his track when Shreya said "It's about Surbhi."

"Go on. I don't have much time to waste." Ekansh said.

"When you're gonna tell her?" Shreya asked making Ekansh furrowed his eyebrows in confusion.

"About what?" Ekansh asked.

"Playing clueless.. " Shreya said with a sarcastic laugh.

"Don't joke around miss.. Come to the point." Ekansh said in serious tone.

"As you wish." Shreya's tone also became serious. The environment between them was very chill.

"I'm talking about the reason you married Surbhi." Shreya said making Ekansh's eyes widened.

"Yes.. I know everything." Shreya started again.

"That day when you were talking about how you helped your to-be bride and his boyfriend ran away. And you married Surbhi just because you were little too much dependent on her for your work." Shreya continued while Ekansh was just standing there silently.

"She is already hurt. I am not letting you hurt her more now. So, from now on stay away from her." Shreya completed her words.

"You-" Ekansh stopped in the mid when he heard the sound of something dropping. He turned his head towards the direction of the sound..... And there stood the last person he wanted to be present there. Surbhi. She was standing there with tears in her eyes. She was frozen at a place. Feels like her whole world was crashed.

"Surbhi." Shreya whispered.

"Surbhi listen." Without hearing his words Surbhi ran from there.
