Raj's POV
"Dad!! Mr. Handsome!!! Mr. Handsome." I heard a faint voice of Ishana as I scrunched my brows in sleep
"Dad, Wake up!!!!" I heard her whinning more
Let me sleep.... Cutie-pie.
Wait, What??? Ishu.....
I opened my eyes blinking for a good view as I saw Ishu seating beside me in indian style and smiling
I fastly seat back and she fastly hugged me tightly almost leaving her all weight on me as I reciprocated. Ohhh! I miss this.....
"You're okay, right?" I asked tightening the hold as she nodded
"How did you came here, alone? Where are others?? You're weak, right?!" I asked as I frown seeing no-one coming for her
"Everyone was sleeping and I called Bhai... But you know he's a log when he sleep." She groaned frustratedly as I let out a laugh
"I know!! You're Okay, right??! I got so worried seeing you like that. Why you both went alone for marketing." I feel my heartbeat fasten remembering her unconscious state
"I'm Sorry." She whispered as I tightened my arms around her and kissed her crown
"Dad! Ouff.....! You're suffocating me." She slapped my arms as I freed her
"Ohh!!! I didn't feel. I'm... Umm--- Are you hungry?? Do I call anyone?" I asked cupping her face
"No!! I'm not. I want to say you something." She chirped clapping her hands excitedly
"Ohh... No!! Please, Cutie-pie. Don't. Don't ask me anything.... Please.... I can't able to tell you everything."
I chanted mentally as she look at me then said. "You know Dad. I fight with them. I punched them, kicked them." I tried to not laugh on it seeing her excitement or else Meera would bleed my ears saying I give her so excess and spoiled her
I keep nodding in everything as she kept talking "Even when my hands are tied I still beat them. See my hands is still red little bit." She extended her hands towards my face as I cupped her hands
There are few red marks on her wrist but suddenly it started to deeper in red as bloods oozing out of it
What the hell!!!!!
I snapped my head towards her as her eyes are shut tightly and brows scrunched all I can see a painful reaction on her face
"Ishu.... What's happening?? You're okay a minute back... Tell me, Is it hurting?? Ohh.... It'll. Let me call someone no.... The doctor." I panicked
"Meera.... MEERA...... KRISH....." God! Why they're not coming.
"It'll be okay, Cutie-pie! Let me go and call one of them." I said but she grasped my hand tightly
"Don't. Please, Dad. Don't go. I'm scared. Don't leave me here alone." I mumbled as my eyes teared up
"I'm not leaving you ever but let me call the doctor." I mumbled back as I hugged her but I feel something wet on my neck
I look at her down to see there's a cut on her forehead on left side and it's bleeding. No.... How??? Doctor aided on it then....
"Cutie-pie. See..... It's bleeding. What you did huh??!! Don't be so stubborn let me call the doctor. Please...." I pleaded
I can't see her like this.... No I can't.
"What's happening??? Why you're bleeding Ishu??? Ohh god!!!!! I'm not getting anything." I mumbled as she hugged me
"Dad. You said me that you won't leave me alone. Then don't go. It's.... It's so dark here. You know I'm scared of darkness. Don't go. Don't go." She muttered while crying and gasping but I feel like she's going away
"Ishu!!! I'm here only. Look." I called but when I look down at my arms she's not there
"Ishu! Ishu, Where are you??? Ishuuuuuuu!!!!" I shouted as I feel someone jerked me up and my eyes snapped open

Author's POV
Raj set up fastly gasping for air with sweat beaded on his forehead. He's sweating badly and his breathing is also high like he ran a never-ending marathon.
It's a dream. It's a bad dream.
He raked his hands on his messy hairs and looked front to see Meera seating beside him with worried expression
"It's Okay! It was a bad nightmare." She raked her hands on his arms and hugged him as Raj hugged him hiding his face on her hairs
"It's.... I'll never let it be true." He mumbled as his eyes teared up
"Raj Ji, It's a dream. Don't think about it." Meera said raking her fingers on his hairs as he nodded sniffing
"You here? Who's with Ishu?" He mumbled breaking the hug
"She is not alone, her Brother and her Buddy is there." Meera mumbled back as she tried to smile to ease the situation
"You were right, Meera. She's a Mahajan too. They're the Mahajan too. They'll inherited my enemies too. I don't want that for my children." Raj muttered face-palming himself as Meera's eyes teared up
"Raj Ji. I-- You know I was angry that day. I-- I-- I said it in heat of the moment. Why we're going on that lane. It's.... We already crossed that path." Meera shuddered in her words trying to put some sense in her husband's brain
"When I saw her today it's..... I can't. I can't Meera. This dream.... it can be true also and Akshu. What's her fault in all this. She suffer cause of me." Raj shake his head as a tear rolled down his eyes
"Raj Ji, Please..." Meera hold him through his shoulder stoping him to punish himself this much
"I'll take her back. I'll take her with me Ahemdabad..... No! No! I think London will be better. Isn't it?!! She'll stay with me infront of my eyes." Raj blabbered not caring Meera's reaction
"Raj Ji. She won't be ready you know that right." Meera argued and that angered him more
"I don't care. I bloody don't care. She'll be going with me and that's it. Either happily or forcefully." Raj shouted at her as Meera tried to hold his hand but he moved away before she could hold him
Meera suddenly felt like deja vu. She could feel that coldness and adamantness exactly what she feel before with earlier Rishi Raj; who's hidden under layers for all this years
One Stubborn and Adamant person who knows how to achieve whatever he desires for either by hook or by crook
She gulped a lump as a fear crawl into her body seeing his eyes. She felt like hitting his head in near wall.
She don't want her daughter to see this side of her lovely father. Meera bite her lips in tension knowing well that there's a huge storm coming in her way when Ishana will wake up
"You'll force her? What are you saying, Raj Ji." Meera snarled at him but it didn't effect him as he look towards the wall ignoring her
"Do you think you'll be able to convince her? She's an adamant daughter of her adamant father." Meera stated but it's makes Raj to glare her but Meera shrugged looking at him
"Exactly! I'm her father so I'm more adamant than her." Raj hissed back not wanting to show his tension
"She did whatever we said her to do. She asked you only one thing in all this years. Now will you break your promise??" Meera glare him as Raj sighed in irritation
He walk out fastly without saying anything dwelling with himself either to do what he decided or let her live here
He don't want to hurt her feelings but he even don't want to see her getting hurt and her life in danger
"How's Akshu???" Raj asked seeing Suraj coming out of Akshu's room
"Now she's okay. But weak taking rest, Ragini is feeding her." Suraj said as Raj nodded and walk towards front porch as he saw the sun is about to rise
Both the friends stood side by side in silence, watching the sun which is spreading his radiance on the earth cutting through the darkness and lighting the sky in a single blink of an eye
"Do you think.... Akshu suffers cause she's with Ishana." Suraj's voice cut through the silence as Raj just sighed without answering
Suraj turned his right to face him "So you want to say. I and Ragini suffered cause I was with you." He added
"I didn't said that. What are you saying??" Raj mumbled without averting his gaze
"I heard you!" He snapped glaring Raj
"I didn't mean anything like that. I just said it'll be better if she stays with me." Raj said finally facing him
"So you're gonna break your promise." Suraj said with a stoic face
Raj gritted his teeth on that line "She's important to me. More than any stupid promise." He snapped at him as Suraj rolled his eyes
"You promised her only, Raj." Suraj said boring his eyes into his which makes Raj to huff and leave the place
"Where are you going??" Suraj called for him
"Ishu had fever last night." He muttered and walk past him inside
Raj entered inside the room to see D's seating beside Ishana's head resting on the headboard and Krish is sleeping on same side in a chair putting his head above his hand on bed
Raj slowly walk towards another side of bed and seated near her as he put his back of hand on her cheeks to check the temperature
"The fever is still there." He mumbled taking the piece of cloth over her forehead and dipped it near bowl kept on bed side table
He put the cloth on her forehead again and remove her stubborn hairs on side as the aided cut on her forehead came into his view makes him gulped a lump remembering the dream
He clenched his jaw seeing the slightly faded finger marks on her right cheek and on her neck
"I'm Sorry!" He whispered caressing her head
D wake up and saw Raj "You need rest go and sleep!" D denied saying in sleepy voice "I'm fine."
Ishana stirred frowning her brows as her fingers moves on Krish's hand grasping his long, rough tiny finger
"Fire!! Buddy....." She mumbled in sleeping state as D and Raj neared towards her
"Ishu!! Kishmish!!!" D shook her as Krish wake up in reflex
"Ishu!!!!!" D shouted as she blinked open her eyes frowning at her surroundings
"Ishu!!!!" Krish near his face towards her as tried to move her hand but wince cause of the pain
She looks weak and pale as she only blinked looking at everyone. Meera, Suraj and Ragini entered into the room to see her as Meera seat beside Raj
Ishana only blinked at everyone without saying anything which makes Raj to feel fear crawling inside him
"Who're you??" Ishana frown at Krish who frown in confusion
"Ishu.... It's Krish. Your brother." Meera whispered as she look at Meera with same frown
"But who are you??" She uttered in raspy, dried voice as Meera look at her wide eye and she grip Raj's shoulder in fear
"What are you saying??" D muttered near her as her eyes moved towards the voice
"I said I don't know you all. Who're you? Where I'm?" She said and look at Raj who have a blank face
She tried to seat back as Raj hold her making her seat as she laughed at everyone's face which makes Raj to glare her
"I'm kidding! No need to react like that." Ishana laughed seeing her Brother and Mother's pale up faces
"What makes you to joke on this matter??" D lashed on her offendedly
Ishana wince on the sudden tone but she smiled shrugging "I thought to check how do you all feel if I don't remember you all? Do you still feel the same love and care till now about 'the never meant to be born child' "
Everyone freezed listening her calm words as Raj open his mouth but shut in next second he found himself out of words
"It's okay! I'm not saying or asking anything from you all. So..... Let's leave all this." She mumbled the last part
"Err---- you're hungry, right?! Let me bring something for you." Meera said as Ishana just nodded
Meera left the room hurriedly as Ragini too went behind her. "Meera" Ragini whispered behind her as she hugged her from side
"What is she saying? Never meant to be born...? Ragini, I'm scared.... I'm scared for her. God knows what that man feed her??? What if she takes everything in a wrong way. I-- I don't know how will everyone reacts? How will Raj Ji, would react????" Meera panicked
"Meera... Listen to me.... We-- We'll talk with her. If needed we'll tell her everything. Trust me, Nothing will happen like that." Ragini said as Meera open her mouth to say something but Ragini interupt between saying
"Now she need something to eat. We'll discuss this later on." Meera nodded
"Isn't it paining?? Stop moving your hands so much." Krish frown at her
"You both don't say anything. You guys didn't even fight with those goons, huh!" Ishana snorted looking at both of them as D scoff
"What? Don't talk so emotionally. It doesn't suits you, Brother." Ishana retrotted eyeing her brother
Ishana look at her father who's seating beside her as she neared her face towards him with scrunched brows
"Why you're chocking my teedy?" She narrowed her eyes at him as Raj looked down to see he's chocking the soft pink teedy
"I'm S-- how does that matter? You stay happy with others." He mumbled looking away
Ishana look at Suraj, who rolled his eyes in dramatic way as he said "I'm going near Akshu she's alone sleeping in her room and Ishu have your food and take rest." He left kissing her head
"Today I get to know from where Bhai got that 'J' behaviour." Ishana commented giggling as D too stiffle a laugh
"Dad..... Why you're so weirdo?? You even get Jealous of Bhai and Buddy." Ishana made a face as Raj narrowed his gaze at her
She shriek sensing someone grab her right ear as she turned and glare Krish earning a same glare in return
"What do you mean by 'Bhai got that 'J' behaviour' Stop using your mouth and take rest." Krish left her ear as she rolled her eyes
Krish eyed her wounds for second then look towards her eyes. "Isn't it, paining??" He mumbled tracing on her wound on arms
"Bhai...." Ishana called him slowly with a soft smile "This emotional acting doesn't suits you." Ishana stated making Krish snort
Meera entered inside with a soup bowl which makes Ishana to scrunch her nose in disgust on it's sight
"Move." She swayed Krish and D from there
Meera seat beside her with a serious look. "Open your mouth." She comanded
"Ewwww! I need to brush my teeth and freshnup too. I'm stinking." She make a disgusting face
Meera scoffed, forwarding the spoon near her mouth ignoring her words royally
"Mom---" Her words trailled off when D pinched her nose tightly she open her mouth for taking the air in when Meera shoved the spoon in her mouth
D left her nose as Krish and D laugh on it and Raj shook his head tiredly. She pinched D hard who let out loud shriek
"Brutus.... You should help me." She spank D's arm who make a face
"Dad!!!" Ishana whinned tiredly
"You both go and take rest." Raj said as they both made a face and left as Ishana teased them sticking out her tongue
"Now finish it, Ishu." Meera scolded as she sighed taking the last sip on her soup
"Ishu.... Er-- I want to ask you something." Raj said earning her attention finally
She turned to him for listening "You're felling okay, right?!!" He stated as she nodded
"You'll able to walk in next two days. So...... I'm saying you that.... Let's come with me to London." Raj breath out finally as Meera's hand stopped in between
"Uh-huh! Dad, I can't. I've my semester ending exam in next two months and I myself need time to join and check my design from the professor." Ishana stated not getting her father's words
Raj shook his head not making her understand as he sighed and hold her hands in soft yet firm grip saying "Cutie-pie! I'm saying you to come with US. With me and your Mom to London for Forever. Even if you want then D, Papa and Krish everyone will stay there." Ishana frown on it
"Even Akshu can stay there too. Can you complete your studies there..... At London." Raj stated
Ishana took her hands away from his hold "You want to say. I've to go from here with you." She whispered as Raj nodded his head after few seconds
"But why Dad, you said me that I can stay here with Akshu." Ishana whispered as her face fell
"I know... I know, Ishu." Raj mumbled cupping her face and he added further "But all this.... Ishu, I trust Suraj and Ragini with you but they need to protect Akshu too. If you stay with me then I'll be in peace. After all this leaving you here all alone it'll poked me each time, Ishu."
"Dad. I-- I don't want to go, Please na! I promise. I promise, I'll take care of myself. Dad, You promise me." Ishana sniffed as her eyes tears gathered on her eyes silently saying that she'll cry in any moment
"I know you don't want to go but it's for your betterment, Ishu. Listen...... I promise you can stay in touch with these friends of yours, even you want to study in best FD College I'll make you. You know I can do these. Even you submitted a form there also, right." Raj tried hard to make her understand as Meera shook her head on it
"Dad! First, I don't want to go. Second, I don't want to take your help for getting into a reputed College, Mom never let me take your help in all these matters now I don't want it. Third, I won't go anywhere, leaving this place just cause some assholes tried to harm me. I won't run away." She breath out heavy sigh
"Sorry for my cursed words, Mom. I want to sleep, I'm feeling tired." She mumbled as Meera helped her laying down and Raj look at them blankly and left the room silently
Meera smile at her lowly and leave the room as she saw Raj pacing in the room with clenched jaw and tight fists
"It's not that much easy, Raj Ji." Meera said walking towards
"Meera. I don't want to talk with you, so leave." Raj deadpanned
Meera pinched on his arm tightly. Raj hissed and look at him "Don't you dare to talk to me in that tone. Got it." She snarled as Raj huffed on it
"Accept that part that your daughter is more stubborn than you." She patted on his arm and turned to leave
"I'm not joking." Raj pulled her back getting annoyed that no-one is taking his words seriously
"Neither me. You need rest, just sleep." Meera pushed him on bed as he grumbled something laying down on bed
Meera too lay down beside him for taking some rest and soon doze off
~After 2 hours~
After sleeping for some hours, Raj wake up and keep tossing and turning on the bed from last one hour
In sleep, Meera frown and slap his arms saying him not to move so much as he sighed and after few minutes he stood up silently and left the room
He walk towards Akshu's room to check on her firet seeing her sleeping peacefully under dosage of medicine he left turning off the lights and covering the windows with curtains so that sun rays won't disturb her sleep
He left and walk towards Ishana's room when he D walking out from the house silently
"Where are you going now???" Hearing Raj's sudden voice the poor child shriek forward stumbling on the steps
"Woahhh!! You scared me." D muttered with a relaxing sigh
Raj knitted his eyes, suspiciously sensing what he's thinking D said "No. I'm going for some work which you gave me last year. Um-- I've some work." D smile cheekily
"Now. At this our?? Where are you going??" Raj throw a glare
D gulped "I'll come soon. Even Akshu is waken up, they both are fine. I'll stay at Kishmish's apartment. Bye!!" D grin and ran out
"Hey!! Why this kid behaving so suspiciously?! Let me talk with your mother." Raj mumbled and walk towards Ishana's room
Raj entered inside her room tiptoeing as he saw her laying on bed covering with duvet
He turned to leave but stopped near door steps "I'm not feeling sleepy." He heard her mumbling
"You didn't slept??" He turned frowning at her "You didn't eat the medicine." He stated throwing a look at his mini-me
"It's bitter. With it's smell only I felt like vomiting." She mumbled peeking out from the blanket
Raj sighed and seat beside her as she shifted a little bit. "Why you didn't sleep?" He asked settling beside her
"I slept. But then wake up now I can't sleep. It's paining here." Ehe muttered trying to move her hand
"It's okay! It'll be okay after some days. Don't worry." Raj said hugging her sidely as after that silence fell in the room
"Dad. Are you serious when you said those things?" Ishana break the ice asking him as she feel her father nodded his head in 'Yes'
"But.... I don't want to go, please. It's only one more year. Then I'll be with you only. Please na, Dad!!" She whinned hugging him with her one hand
"One year is a very long period, Ishu. One year means 365 days, 8760 hours, 525---" "Okay! I got it. Now I don't want lessons on maths. I'm sick." Ishana interupt in between huffing
"Cutie-pie. Listen to me I--" Before he could say more Ishana started to wail loudly as he look at her with a blank face
"Stop wailing. There's no tears on your face." Raj deadpanned as Ishana stopped suddenly but again start to sobbed loudly
"Fine. No need to go with me. But you'll give me updates of every minutes." He said as Ishana snort
"What am I, your daughter or a compass who'll show you the way where am I??" She snapped
"Stop giving me sarcastic comments. I'm your father you're not my mother." Raj said holding her ears as she pout
"Leave my ear, Dad." She whin as Raj leave her ears with a look as Ishana slid on the duvets and put her head on his laps
"Do you want to tell me something??" Raj whispered as Ishana look at his face and nodded slowly
"Why that man-- Why he said that I-- I never meant to be born. That It's his fault that he let me be alive?? Did I hurt him anyway by mistakenly or unknowingly??? But I don't him though" While saying her eyes teared up as Raj clenched his jaw
"Don't remember all this. He... He just did this to hurt you emotionally for making you defence less" Raj stated raking his hand on her hairs
"Do you believe what your Mom said you stories about Lord Krishna." Raj said as Ishana nodded her head
"So you know Krishna Ji killed Kansa, his mamu (Maternal Uncle). He wants to kill Krishna for saving himself, for taking revenge from his biological parents. He also said you all those things which Kansa said to Krishna so that he can make him break mentally and emotionally after every fight." Raj said as he chooses his words carefully he look down to see her listening him ver attentively
"He also knows he can't make you loose infront of him. So he tried to trick you. That's it. You can never loose. I'll never let you." He stopped kissing her crown as Ishana squeal shifting from his lap to pillow
"Means he tried to trick me. That Old Monkey." She snort as Raj sighed knowing his words work on her that overthinking brain
"You're my daughter. You're a Mahajan. I'll protect you. I love you." Raj said ruffling her hairs softly
"Feelings are mutual, Dad." She said kissing his cheeks as Raj let out a soft chuckle on his daughter's witty reply
"But Dad, then I'm Krishna too. So why don't you change Bhai's name from Krish and give me his name and name him with umm--- Yes. Balram." Ishana said excitedly with a laugh as Raj chuckle
"From where you get all this weird thoughts?" She heard two voice one from Raj and she saw Krish standing there at doorstep
Ishana make a face seeing him and turned towards Raj as Krish entered and drop himself on other side of her in bed and hugged her neck
"Are you planning to choke me." Ishana slapped on his arm as Krish rolled his eyes
"Will you tell me about this Abhishek Rathore. How he become your friend so fastly. At ahemdabad you don't have any friends except Yug then how???" He mumbled as Raj frown at his words
"Why?? And, I'm 19, not stupid." Ishana said with a 'Shut the hell up' face
"What? I'm just curious. He's the one with whom you're talked last." Krish shrugged with a suspiciousness in his tone
"Krish. He's Pratap's Son." Raj retrotted with an no nonsense face as Krish nodded after sometime
"Maybe. I'm thinking too much." He shrug again stuffing his mouth on the pillow as Ishana tickle him
"Oye!!!!" He called out with a threat
"Bhai. I didn't did anything." She shrugged with a stupid grin
"Little Foxy! Let me tell you one thing about D." Krish said in hushed voice
Raj shook his head seeing them as he saw Sumit standing at doorstep calling for him silently
"Krish. Let her sleep and you too." Raj said walking out
"You're saying something about Buddy" He heard Ishana's desperate voice while closing the door behind him
"What happened Sumit??" Raj asked as he saw Suraj coming too with Rana behind him
"Sir we need to tell you something both." Sumit started as Raj nodded
"Someone wants to meet with you both." Rana said as Raj arched his brow
"Who??" Suraj frown as Raj sighed
"At evening. Call Shekhar too." Raj said as Suraj shook his head "No. I'm not going, what I'll say to others and I'm too angry to go and meet her." Suraj glare everyone
"Suri! It's about few minutes." Raj sighed
"Why? I'm not talking with you. You go and take your daughter with you. I'm not going anywhere." Suraj snapped and walk away in which Raj groaned
"Suraj!!!" He called out but he went away
#At Evening, Same Day#
"Com'on. Stop behaving like this, Suraj." Raj grumbled near his ears but he didn't budge off
"I'm not taking Ishu with me anywhere. She's staying here only. Com'on, stop behaving like kids." Raj slapped his head from back as Suraj groan
"Are you serious, that Ishu's not going anywhere?" Suraj demanded
"No. She's not." Raj stated as Suraj stood up
"What? What are you waiting for ? We're getting late. Come." Suraj said rolling his sleeves as Rana bite his lips to control his laugh
Sumit chuckle lowly seeing Raj's dumbfounded face. Raj stood and twisted Suraj's hand as he wince "What are you doing, Idiot. It's hurting, Raj. Leave." Suraj whisper-yelled at him
"From morning you're throwing tantrums on this, huh! You Drama Company." Raj snort at him
"Woahhh!!!!"
"Wowwwwww!!!!!!" They heard a whistle behind them to see Ishana and Akshu standing at the door steps
Raj left Suraj's hand immediately "Woah! You both are fighting. Why??" Akshu asked entering inside slowly
Ishana smile at them as she sprinted towards her father holding his hand she stated "Dad. Sumit Uncle said you're going somewhere out, I also want to come."
"No. Not at all. You still needs rest." Raj declined fastly
"But why I'm getting bored here. Bhai left for somewhere and even Bud..." She suddenly stopped eyeing Akshu
"I mean.... Even Dadu. He's also not here. I'll get bore. Let me go with you, I won't disturb you in your work." Ishana said pouting at him
"Yes. Yes. Raj take her with you. Come Rana we're getting late for our work." Suraj said as Raj glare him
"Do you need something to eat." Suraj asked Akshu
"Yes. Chocolate." Akshu grinned at him he smiled back
"Dadddd!!!!!!!!" Ishana called him with puppy face clinging to him like a monkey
"Fine. Come." Raj patted her back as she sprinted out with him
*****************
"Sit here quietly. I've some work there. Wait.... What you'll eat??" Raj asked making him sit at a park
"Ice-cream." She grinned at him
"No. You had a fever till morning only." Raj denied bluntly
"But...." Ishana pout with a sad face
"Then that." She pointed at Candy Floss
"No. It's Yuck! It's unhealthy." Raj frown his brows as Ishana tightly pressed her lios in thin line
"Dad. Then that." Now she pointed at some snacks shops
"Dahi Puri." She retrotted as Raj scrunched his nose in denial
"What is it Dad. You said no to Ice-cream, no to candy floss, now even no in that." She huffed
"Mom is right..... You're not at all fun. Always stays like grumpy old man. Even Bhai became like you. I should have called Buddy here." She spatt infront of his face as Raj glare him
"Hi!!!" D slapped her arm from side
"What are you doing here?" Both father and daughter asked in unison as D fumbled
"Woah!!! I've some work with K. And, now I saw you both here. But what happened??" D said looking at their faces
"Fine! You stay with her. I'll be back in minute. And... Don't give her Street foods." Raj gave a final look to Ishana and walk inside the restaurant
"Buddy..... Please. I want, na." Ishana whinned with puppy face
"Fine...... but you won't tell about this. wait for me here." D said as Ishana nodded like an obidient kid
After few mins D came with a plate of Dahi puri. Ishana fastly took the plate and gobbled a crispy ball inside her mouth.
In next second she moaned when her tongue got the taste in one bite. the sweetness and tanginess of tamarind sauce, spiciness from the green chutney(sauce), softness of the potato, the coolness of yogurt and the crunch of the crispy balls. it's like a flavour explosion inside her mouth.
"Hey! eat slowly." D said chuckling at her state
"I want something from you." Ishana said as D frown but still nodded
Inside Restaurant..... At Dinning Area.......
"Hiiii!" One male voice gretted someone and seat one of the chair
"Hello!!!" A female voice gretted back
"How are you??" that female voice asked again
"Fine!! what about you??" that male voice asked
"Obviously. she'll be superb. after what his son did." another male voice said from behind them
"Com'on Suraj. it's harsh." that male voice said seeing him so angry and talking so harshly
"Really?! Am I?? I don't think so Shekhar." Suraj said stomping towards them
Shekhar sighed at him. "That's really your anger saying. even I can also get angry on you all especially on Rishi." That female voice said
"Really!! Oh, Woow!! I'm scared of you, Gayatri Rani Sa." Suraj said dramatically in a scared voice
Shekhar shake his head at both of them "You should be. why you beat him so harshly? without any mercy. How dare you to touch my son."Gayatri snarled towards him as Suraj glare her but before he could say in return one other rough manly voice entered into their ears
"None of US hurted your son. we didn't even touched him." They turned to see Raj standing there in all his angry glory
Gayatri gulp a lump seeing his glare at her. Raj walk towards them and take a seat beside Suraj. "Can we just finish it fast? ishu, is outside at Park." Raj said giving a look at them
"You bring her here" Shekhar hissed at him as Raj shrugg
"Then how Rishabh got hurt?" Gayatri glare him back but in return she got another glare more intimading then her but soon it's change into a sly smirk
Gayatri frown at him "It's my daughter." Saying he lean back on the chair
"Stop lying. How could she even dared to. She's such a sweet kid and moreover a collerge going girl." Gayatri snap at him as Raj let out a snort
Other two laugh at her comment "You don't even know a single thing about her. you don't know her till now." Shekhar comment as Gayatri look at Raj
"She broke his arms??" Gayatri asked in which Raj shook his head
"It's..... Her Buddy." Raj retrotted but Gayatri frown
"Just hear me out cleraly, Gayatri. We didn't touched your son as we give you our words. But if he keep hurting my family like this then I can't assure you till when I'll be patient. today, whatever happen with him I don't feel a single percent of bad for him. he deserve that." Raj gritted out each word as Gayatri bite her inner cheek in tension; tension for his son
"he tried to choke my daughter." Gayatri gasped on it with rounded eyes.
"Tell your son the whole truth about his father. If he again tried to harm my daughter I won't let him live. I didn't touch him cause I promise you not to harm anyone from your family. Rishabh thinks... Raj and I are responsible for Ranjith's (Rishabh's father) death." Suraj muttered glaring the table as he sighed and face Gayatri
"What??? But I didn't said him a single thing related to his father. Even, I said him all thing which his father did with me." Gayatri stated looking at all three
"Then how come your son is doing all this? And, you said me that your sons are away from Samrat. How he's there then, when Samrat kidnapped our daughters." Raj lashed at her loudly
Gayatri wince as Shekhar hold back Raj's arm. "Raj, it's public place." He gritted out at him as Raj intake a sharp breath he then look at Gayatri
"Gayatri, Please try to understand. None of US said everything to our kids thinking that it's past of our life let's not hamper there childhood and innocence." Shekhar sighed as everyone went silent
He added further in more serious voice
"Even Krish is fighting with your son just to protect Suraj's company but what your son did in Samrat's influence.... Krish and other face Accident. Hear me out very carefully. If they get to know about whole truth then I can't able to stop especially Ishana." Gayatri look at him hearing Ishana's name as Raj snort at him
"Ishana? What she'll do?? Shekhar, have you lost it. You.... Idiot." Raj scoff at him
"I'm serious. What do you think, Raj. Rishabh didn't said her about his father's death. Obviously he did, right. And what makes her so angry and aggressive all time. What is the topic which makes her demeanor to change like you all ruthless. The topic about her family. 'Family' Raj. If she losse her patience then no-one can save your son, Gayatri." Shekhar pointed out smoothly as everyone gulp a lump
"Did Rishabh get a blown on his lower abdomen???" Raj asked gulping
Gayatri nodded in 'Yes' "It's serious even Jai, I mean his assistant he's also beaten up brutally. I thought it's you three who.... beat them or your Son." She muttered slowly looking at Raj
"Jai?? Oh, god!!" Raj breath out
"As I told you all. Nandini said me about her outburst in Hospital at Ahemdabad. I get a hint from that time only." Shekhar sighed as Suraj pressed his forehead
"Did you make your daughter a Mafia Don or what?? Why she's so agressive??" Gayatri snapped at Raj who glare him
"Wrong choice of words..." Suraj and Shekhar thought and shook their heads
"If you didn't stopped your son then I'll tell my daughter everything and she alone would kill him. And don't worry, I'll save her. Can you just do a single thing by your own, Gaytri Sherawat??" Raj hissed with clenched jaw as Gayatri narrowed her eyes at him
"Guys! Please. We all know how to control all these. But we're not doing anything. Let's work on it." Shekhar said as all of them sighed nodding at him
"How's Ragini and Nandini??" Gayatri asked after some time
"Good. Busy with her work and Yug." Shekhar mumbled sipping on the water
"Ragini is okay till two days back but handling my injured daughter." Suraj mocked at him as Gayatri pinched his arm
"Can't you talk nicely?!" She hissed as Suraj wince in pain
"You.... Still so big nails cut them or else I'll break it." Suraj hissed back but got a spank on his arm as Shekhar chuckle at them
"How's Meera??" She asked eyeing Raj but before he could say Shekhar beat him into it
"How could Meera stay happy while staying with him?? A Ravan." Raj glare him as he pick a fork and pressed on his hand which is laying on the table softly
"What did you said? You just keep your eyes away from my Wife. Got it, Shekhi!" Raj said with a tight lipped smile as Shekhar wince slightly but groaned lastly hearing the name
"It's paining, dumbass!" Shekhar hissed as Raj remove the fork
"Beaware of the Danger." Suraj mumble with a laugh as Gayatri chuckle back
Raj stood up buttoning his coat "Ishu is waiting. I'm leaving." Everyone also stood up to left as first Shekhar left in his Official Jeep and Shekhar too left in his car
"Sir, I'm bringing the car." Sumit said and left getting a nod from Raj
"Where's your daughter??" Gayatri asked taking her eyes away from her phone screen
"At Park." He mumbled as Gayatri nodded
"Keeping aside everything. I'm Sorry for my comment on her. Cause, no matter how she react with Rishabh. She's a cute little thing, stays happy in everything and cheerful. I think she's more energetic than Meera." Gayatri chuckle as Raj smile nodding on her comment
"She's the only thing which makes me stays in control." Raj muttered as Gayatri sighed
"She loves you more anyone else." Gayatri smile remembering her bright smile last time at hospital
Raj chuckle shaking his head as Gayatri frown "Nope. If she loves anyone more than it's her BUDDY." He retrotted sighing as Gayatri frown then smile nodding
"I smell the jealousy here." She sniffed as Raj rolled his eyes
"I decided to take Rishabh away from India with me. Mostly, At Las Vegas." Gayatri mumbled as Raj nodded sighing
Gayatri bid bye to him and left patting his shoulder as Raj intake a sharp breath and turned to take Ishana but stopped seeing her standing few steps away from him with knitted eyes
Raj raked his eyes around her but Ishana said him "Buddy went to my flat for taking rest."
She didn't even stopped and seat inside the car silently as she's sipping from her Frooti. Raj too take a seat beside her as Sumit started the car
Ishana stayed silent and kept looking at Raj as he frown and look at her straight "What?? Why you're looking at me like that??" He asked finally as Ishana take a long sip from the Frooti
"Why you're drinking this? Isn't it, cold?!!" Raj frown and tried to take the drink but she turned another side narrowing her eyes at him
"You say me. Who's that Lady?? With whom you're talking in so slow voice??" She asked in serious voice as Sumit take a look at uer from the mirror then again look at the road
"What?? Idiot! What are you saying??" Raj frown at her
She stayed silent for sometime then neared her face close to her father and Raj backed away all flabbergasted "Ishu. Sit down." He scolded
"Dad.. Do you've any extra marital affair?!! You're cheating on my Mom? How can you Dad??" She suddenly shouted as Sumit put the break and Raj cough on his spit
"What?? What nonsense you're spouting?!! Don't you've any shame while saying all this to your father, huh?!!" Raj twisted her ear as she wince
"What?? Then you say who's that Lady in red Saree? Hawww!!! Even she's wearing your favourite colour?" Ishana's eyes bulged out as Raj pressed his forehead
"Ishu. She's one of our... New client who work with your Uncle Alex." Sumit reason out as he give an assurance nod to Raj who nod
"Ohh!!! I thought...... I mean what if you did?" She shrugged as Raj hold her through her head
Sumit started to drive again "You brat. Listen me carefully this... for first and last time. I love your Mother more than anything in this world. And, when we love someone more than anything then we don't.... We can't love anyone else like that." Ishana blinked at him like an innocent sheep
"And no matter what's this world say. But when we men love then we love the only women in our life especially we 'One women men' Understood?" Raj stated holding her ear as she nodded fastly so that he won't twist her ear
After that she fell into deep thinking as after she open her mouth saying "So.... You mean to say, Those Who're 'One women men' they only stays loyal not those who always flirt with girls?" Raj look at her for sometime in silence but Ishana feel like it's too much
"No. I didn't said that. I'm saying that who loves their women loyally and truly they don't cheat them no matter whats. We're talking about love not about some disloyal peoples." Raj smile at her as she smile back and hugged her father
"Will anyone also love me like you love Mom??" She whispered slowly as Raj frown
"Obviously! I'm here, na. I'll love you always and forever." Raj patted her head as she chuckle nodding at him and closed her eyes thinking one particular face

After 2 days........
At College......
"What we'll say them about your this cut?" Akshu asked fidgeting with her fingers
"Akshu, You just don't get nervous infront of Yuvi rest I'll handle." Ishana assured her as she nodded
"Hello Peeps!!!" Ishana waved infront of their faces as everyone snapped their head at them
"Akshu. Oh god!!!" Yuvi muttered as he stood up and hugged her tightly as Ishana took few steps back giving them space of theirs
"I'm fine, Yuvraj!" Akshu caressed his back as he nodded
"Hiii!!!" Rohan wave at Ishana who nodded with a small smile
"How're you???" Rohan asked again eyeing her as she looks little bit different to him
"Fine!!" She mumbled as Abhi came and hug her tightly as she rolled her eyes
"Thank god. You're okay! Papa, stopped me from coming to Bedi Mansion." He mumbled slowly in her ears
Ishana just smile and patted his back "I'm fine, Abhi and thanks." She mumbled back as Abhi broke the hug
"Oh, god!!!! You're back." Sary squeal behind her as she hugged her from back but Ishana wince loudly in next second Sary stood away from her
"What happened??" Vish asked as Ishana shook her head
"Then why you wince??" Paras asked as Ishana fumbled
"She falls from the stairs two days ago." Akshu blurted out as Rohan look at her
"Why didn't you said US." Rohan stated
"As if you can protect her that dy when you're busy with your date." Abhi snort beside him slowly as Rohan look at him
"I just stated. I thought t--" "You don't have to think so much about her." Abhi interupt him with a serious look
"Why you're behaving like this???" "Like what??" Rohan asked in which Abhi asked back quickly
They both had a silent staring compitition as Abhi break it feeling somone grasp his fingers. He look down to see Ishana looking at both with a frown
"I was calling you from last 2 minutes. What are you thinking looking at him like this??" She stated as Abhi shook his head
"Nothing. Well, take this." Abhi said passing a packet as she frown
"What is it??" She shuffle inside the bag and squeal at him
"How you know all this things?? Who said you to bring this??" She asked
"Yesterday, your brother call me at evening asking about the market but I've some work there only for Papa so I said him I'll bring it by myself and I call Sary she said me everything." Abhi shrug
"Thank you. By the way, payment??" Ishana frown as Abhi "Bhaiya already paid me online."
Ishana look at him wide eyes. "Huh!! When my brother become so brainy?!" She chuckle as Akshu slap her back with a glare as Ishana rolled her eyes
"I need to talk with you, later." Abhi whispered near her ears as she nodded
"Err---- I've some important work at Library so you guys have fun." Ishana stated as Sary and others stood up except Rohan and Abhi
"Then I'm also coming." All unexpectedly said in once and laugh on it too
Abhi groan mentally but still stayed silent "Fine!!!" She said but shrug when Abhi frown completely saying 'I need to talk with you'
"You also come." Rohan stared front hearing Ishana's voice expecting she's talking to him but his bubbles bursted seeing her gaze towards Abhi
"Okay!!" Abhi trailled off but before Ishana could ask Rohan he dragged him away
"Why you didn't let me call him." She frown "Cause, I don't want him near you for now." He said but mumbled the last two words
Abhi is angry on Rohan. According to him, Rohan was having fun at the same day when Ishana is going through with so many things
Though; he knows it's childish to behave like that when he don't have any idea about it but still he can hear him right like he does always.
Before hand, he used to feel insecure of Ishana seeing her so close to him and now when he tried that trick for so many months still he choose her over him, he went on a date with he, Huh!!?
Ishana turned to see him glaring the table as she smile at his behaviour in which he's looking cute
"I guess we all are going." Ishana asked in a mild voice as she spare a glance at back then look away fastly seeing Rohan already smiling at her
They took the place as Abhi seat beside her and take out his phone as he typed a messa to her
Ishana's phone pinged up with a message as she open it seeing Abhi's name as the message reads
"It's about Mansi. I know I'm sounding cruel but I'm desperate to tell you this. Come near the newspaper stand at right corner." Ishana sighed and stood up and walk towards the shelf just beside Newspaper stand
After few seconds Abhi too stood up and near her "Yaar! Why we're talking like we're on a secret mission from RAW and we're undercover cops." Ishana voice out seeing him standing away from her
"Cause, I don't want to tell all of them." Abhi said as Ishana sighed, nodding
"Day before yesterday when I asked Mansi infront of everyone that where she did her first year? You know what she said "City College" in Goa and when asked her about the pub near beach. Does she even knows then she said she hardly knows few." Abhi said as Ishana kept looking at one shelf but her ears are on Abhi's talk
"Today early morning, before coming college I got a call from the College saying that there's no single record about any Mansi Roy from last year. Even there's no student with that name." Abhi said glaring the newspaper
"What???! How's that even possible???!" Ishana whisper-yelled
"I know. I'm also shock about it. Maybe, they did some mistake." Ishana said
Abhi shook his head "I also think that. I said them to check again but now only I got a message from them that they're sure about it." Abhi said as tensed lines formed on her forehead
She look at the upper shelf to see a book there. "We'll talk about it, later or else they'll doubt on both of US. By the way, Where's this Makhhi?!" Ishana stated as Abhi grin
"She didn't came today. She've some work." Abhi snort angrily and walk away
"Who're you Mansi Roy?!! And, What exactly you want from me??! If you dared to harm anyone of US, then I'll surely show you hell. I won't let you play with Rohan's feelings. I'll kill this girl, for sure." Ishana thought and gritt her teeth
