'Maa! Woh....she...ha...had some...work in the hospital.....' He stammered looking here and there and left towards their room. Pinki just stood there looking at his retreating figure.

     He entered his room and instantly dialed Annika's phone. She didn't pick up. He called her atleast ten times but she wasn't responding. Getting frustrated, he threw his phone away.....

      Annika took her mobile to see ten missed calls from him. She immediately switched it off in order to ignore all this.

     She left the hospital premises and sat in her car which her driver had brought. She asked the driver to go and herself drove off to some unknown destination which she herself didn't know about.

      She was driving with full speed without caring about anything. She had spent those ten hours in the plane sleeping and then had kept herself busy in the hospital work. But now, when she was free, all the heart wrenching memories of the previous day came rushing to her mind. She started crying. Her tears flew involuntarily. She cursed her fate for doing this to her. She cursed herself for loving him. She kept driving fastly. Her tears blurred her vision. She didn't notice the truck coming from the opposite side. She was just about to take a turn when she noticed it and instantly took a turn making the car hit the nearby tree that too badly. The windshield broke and the glass pieces fell over her. Her head hit the steering wheel too hard. The car was fully damaged from the front. No one can say that the person inside the car would be alive.

       There, Shivaay felt his heart beating rapidly. He kept his hand over it whispering 'Jaana.' A tear slid down his cheek unknowingly. He felt some unknown pain in his heart. She was still not home and he was worried sick for her.

      'Shivaayyyy!' He heard Pinki's scream and rushed outside. He reached the hall and looked at Pinki who was standing with tears rolling down her eyes looking in a particular direction. He followed her gaze and his breath hitched seeing the scene in front of his eyes. It was the news of Annika's accident. She was being carried on a stretcher towards the ambulance. Her head was completely covered with the blood. She was severely injured. He stumbled back seeing all this. He wasn't expecting this. Pinki rushed to him and hugged him crying loudly but he was numb. He wasn't in a state to console her. Both immediately left towards the hospital with thumping hearts.

      Shivaay rushed out of the car and ran towards the ICU as told by the receptionist. Harsh and Avantika were already there mourning over their daughter's accident. He enquired about Annika from them to which they just cried making his already quickened heartbeats more fast. Pinki consoled Avantika even though she herself was crying.

      'Why only she, Harsh? Why always she has to face all this? Why can't our daughter be happy? Seven years ago, we snatched her happiness and now, when she just started living her life.....then......' Avantika cried keeping her head on Harsh's shoulder who too was crying. But shivaay, who listened to her became attentive.

      'What did you just say, Maa?' He asked Avantika who looked at him with wide eyes. She didn't want him to know all that. He persuaded her to tell so she told him everything. She told him how they blackmailed Annika on Harsh's death and how they forced her to make shivaay hate her. They didn't leave any option for her. They made her helpless.

     He felt the ground beneath his feet slipping away. His feet moved backward involuntarily. He faltered over his steps. His Annika, his jaana was forced to do all that. He knew she was helpless but he didn't even think about the reason behind her helplessness. What else could she do anyway? Wasn't it obvious that she would choose her parents over him? Even he would have done the same if someone asked him to choose between Pinki and Annika. His world came crushing down to his field. He literally fell on the floor with a thud. Pinki, Harsh and Avantika were stunned seeing him. His tears started falling. He started crying.

      'What have i done? What sin i have committed? My jaana, my love suffered so much and i.....i, instead of understanding her, broke her more. I broke her heart......i.....i..........annika.....jaana...........my jaana.....my jaana.....jaanaaa.' He shouted crying vigorously. Pinki was about to go towards him but stopped seeing him slapping himself. He kept slapping his cheeks continously. Harsh went to him and somehow controlled him. He was behaving like a mad person chanting 'my jaana....my jaana.'

       They were handling him when the doctor came out and dropped a bomb on them breaking their little bit of hopes.

     'I'M SORRY, SHE IS NO...............'
