Rajveer stopped the car infront of the entrance gate of her college.
"Thank you!"
She uttered softly as he hummed in response. She was about to get down when he stopped her.
"Divya!"
She focused on him hearing his voice.
"Take this!"
He handed over her a box as she looked at it with confusing eyes.
"What is this?"
Divya asked innocently.
"Open it and check!"
She nodded on his words and started unwrapping the box as a mobile came out of it.
"Why this?"
"I broke the previous one of yours. So, you can think it as a replacement! In any need, you can call me through this! I've saved my number there!"
She again got a biggest shock hearing his words. He gave her his number?
"T__Thank y__you!"
"Don't thank me! It's just the replacement and all the best!"
He stated calmly as she nodded her head and got down from the car taking it. She slowly entered inside the gate when something came in her mind as she turned back immediately but he had left long before. A big sigh left from her mouth.
"Divs!"
She turned hearing someone's call and came to see Shalini who was coming towards her.
"Where were you in these days and most importantly, what are these? Vermilion and nuptial chain? That means you got married without telling us? How?"
"A__Actually Shalini, it's a long story. I'll tell you some other day!"
"But why? And who is your husband?"
"He__"
Her words left at middle when she came to see Avyaan who was gawking at her with shocking eyes. Everything fell on the ground from his hands as he couldn't believe anything what he was seeing infront of his eyes.
Divya lowered her gaze and left the place hurriedly clutching her bag near her chest tightly not wanting to meet with his gaze.

"Sir, please can you give me some time. I'll pay the fees soon!"
"What fees are you talking about, Divya? Your all fees are already paid!"
"What? But how is it possible when my brother didn't do any transaction till now?"
"Mr. Rathore, paid all the dues! Your all fees are cleared!"
The words shook her as she remained mum trying to digest the fact. She slowly came out the cabin with widened eyes.
"Thank you, Veer ji! I'll pay back everything when I'll get a job!"
She murmured slowly and went to her classroom.

Divya was going down when suddenly she felt a pull and directly was pinned to a wall under the stairs. She was horrified by the sudden action but then calmed down a little seeing the person.
"D_I_V_Y_A!"
Avyaan slowly whispered as tears rolled down from his cheeks.
"What're all these, Divya?"
He asked as she lowered her eyelashes not knowing what to tell.
"I knew that you didn't have any feelings for me in your heart but you said, you will think about it for once. I was dying to hear a yes from you and then these? Why? How?"
He jerked her holding her shoulders trying to make him feel that what he was seeing wasn't true.
"Answer me, Divya! Please!"
He begged as she looked at him with tears.
"I__I'm sorry!"
"No, I'm not accepting your sorry! First you've to tell me everything! D__Did you do this m__marriage willingly?"
Avyaan again jerked her hoping for the best that everything was a lie.
"Please speak up, Divya! Please! It's really important for me to know!"
"A__vyaan I__I__"
She wasn't understanding what to do. Should she tell him the truth about their marriage, Should she tell him that his brother's life was at stake for this fake marriage or she should remain silent.
He again asked with teary eyes as Shalini placed her hand on his shoulder.
"Avyaan, I know you're hurt the most after this but please, leave her right now if she doesn't want to tell the truth!"
Shalini told him politely as he nodded his head and diverted his gaze. He hurriedly left the place and went back to the classroom trying to control his emotions.
After he went Shalini came near Divya and patted her cheeks.
"I can understand from your silence that you're hiding something, Divya but I won't force you to tell anything. When you feel the correct time please clear everything to us and most importantly to Avyaan who is hurt the most seeing you like this!"
She told to her before going from there.

Divya slowly stepped forward towards her room being confused as hell. She didn't know that her life would become a mess again. She knew that Avyaan was a nice person and loved her so much but she denied him to accept because she hadn't any hard feelings for him. She always waited for the right time, right person and all the feelings to grow in her but everything had shattered. Now she was married with a man who just married her to take revenge from her brother.
She slowly sat on the bed closing her eyes being clueless. Then she thought to change first.

Divya came out of kitchen after making dinner for him. The workers tried to stop her many times but she had a regular habit of helping them while talking with them. After all she hadn't anyone in the mansion to talk except them.
She was going behind the staircase when her vision fell on a locked room. She slowly stepped forward towards it and tried to open it. She didn't see that room before as she used to remain busy with the all household chores.
"Chayya Ma, why this room is locked?"
"Don't try to open the door, Memsab. Saheb doesn't allow anyone to enter into this room!"
"But why?"
She asked curiously.
"We don't know, Memsaab! I still remember when Saheb slapped a worker and throw him out as he was going to clean the room. From that day none dared to look at the room!"
She felt weird and confused hearing her words. What was so important which he was hiding from everyone?
⋇✦⋇
Divya came outside the gate of her college when she came to see Rishabh was standing a little away from her. Without thinking anything she was going near him when she came to see Rajveer coming out of his car from the opposite side removing his sunglasses. He didn't watch Rishabh. Divya got horrified seeing him.
Rishabh was going to come towards her but before that she gestured him to go from there. He clenched his jaw and was going towards Rajveer not caring about anything but she folded her hands in a gesture and begged him to go from there not wanting anymore drama infront of the whole college. She knew if Rajveer saw him, then he would surely kill him this time. Rishabh sighed and went from there watching her pleading.
Divya took a deep breath and started going towards Rajveer who was waiting for her inside the car. She slowly pulled the door and sat inside as he started the car.
"All okay?"
He asked while his focus was on the road.
"Yes"
She added lowly and gazed outside the window huffing in relief.
