She was sitting near the window in her room, looking at the sky and thinking Life is also like a chameleon, you never know when it will change its colour.

There was a moment when she had the love of her loved ones, she had a reason to smile, she had respect and now all she is left with are tears, pain, suffering, taunts, scattered dreams, that's all. Fate has broken her in such a way that no one can mend it even if they want to. She was just breathing, otherwise fate would have taken her life away long ago. She have nothing to ask for but only her akshu to lose. She only prays to god "Bhagwan ji you took away everything from me, but I still endured it. Please don't take my akshu away from me. I will die. He is the only source of light in my life. Please !!."

"Didu"

She was still lost in her thoughts on when someone called her.

She slowly opened her eyes and wiped her tears with back of her hands.She looked back and saw Akshat standing there. She immediately put fake smile on her face and asked with frowned

" Akshu tu es waqt Ghar par kya kar raha hai ? Tujhe to abhi college mai hona chahiye tha na? "

Akshat didn't say anything, he was just staring at Mishti's face Whose eyes were swollen, both eyes and nose had become red because of crying. He was trying to read every pain of Mishti from her face But he couldn't do it.

he thought in his mind

"Kaise kar leti hai ye aap didu. Kaise itne takleef ke bad bhi muskura leti hai. Es dard se khud hi ladti rehti hai, khud roti hai , khud takleef sehti hai par jab bhi meri taraf dekhti hai to bas ek muskurahat ke saath. Janta hu mai itna bada nhi hua hu , itni samaj nahi hai mujh mai abhi duniya ki par itna bhi bewkoof nahi ki aapke dard ko samjh na saku didu. Par halat se majbur hu.

Par wada karta hu didu jab mai kuch ban jaunga na to Mai aapko es narak se dur le jaunga. Aapko aese zindagi dunga Jo aap deserve krte ho. I promise!!*

"Akshu"

He was still thinking when misthi called him loudly. Hearing this , He snapped out of his thought and look towards misthi.

"Ha...a didu apne kuch kaha " He asked while scratching his neck.

"Maine pucha tu es waqt yaha kya kar raha hai ? College kyu nahi gaya ? " She asked with concern tone.

"W..o. wo didu mai file bhul gaya tha to.. to bas wahi lene aaya tha " akshu respond sincerely.

Misthi made 'o' face and nodded.

"Didu wo ..." Akshu stopped after saying this.

"Kya hua bacha. Tabiyat to thik hai tumhari" misthi asked with panicked tone and touched his forehead.

Seeing Mishti getting worried, Akshu held her hand and said

"Relax didu. nothing happened to me. Calm down "

Hearing his answer , misthi heaved a sigh of relief and calm down.

"Pagal, Dara Diya mujhe."

" Didu w...o....wo aapse mi..lne hukum aur un...ki family aa..yi. hai. Un..hone aapko nee...che bulaya ha...I" Akshay said with nervousness.

Hearing him, misthi become numb. Her mind went blank. She couldn't believe what she just heard right now. She couldn't understand anything.

" Ma...I mu..jhe bu..laya ha..I kyu ?

Mai....ne kya ki...ya ?" She panicked and asked with scared tone.

Seeing Mishti's condition Akshat immediately said

" Hey Relax didu. Just clam down. They just want to meet you. Nothing else. That's why they called you. Don't panick okay"

Akshat reassured Mishti by saying soft words to her. after hearing which she calmed down a bit but was still nervous.

" Didu. Why are you worrying when I am here. Didu they seemed very good. You know..." Akshat told to her everything that had happened downstairs. Her eyes grew wide with shock as she listened. Nothing came out of her mouth. She was just staring at Akshat with wide eyes.

" Didu aap bilkul daro mat. Humne kuch galat thori Kiya hai jo hum dare. Hum bas jayenge aur mil kar wapas aa jayenge bas. " Akshat told her to calm her down.

She sighed and nodded slowly and went to get ready.

Here , entire rathore family was waiting patiently. But there was someone who couldn't bear this waiting time.

Yeah! you have guessed right

He was non other than "our ekaksh Babu"

He was the same person who didn't like to wait, who would lose his temper if there was even a slight delay in his work. Today he sits restlessly waiting for his Mishti.

Every moment seemed like centuries to him.

Seeing Ekaksh's restlessness, Shivank and Ruhi thought of playing a mischief. They looked at each other and winked and started singing softly .

"intaha ho gayi intazaar ki, aayi na kuchh khabar mere yaar ki

ye hame hai yaqi bewafa vo nahi, phir vajah kya hui intazaar ki

intaha ho gayi intazaar ki, aayi na kuchh khabar mere yaar ki"

" Kya bat hai bhai itne bekarar to aap humare liye bhi nahi hue jitne bhabhi ke liye ho " Shivank teased.

Ekaksh glared to them and said in dangerously low voice while gritted his teeth

" Shut up both of you otherwise you will not be able to handle consequences. Do you ? "

Hearing his threat , Shivank immediately went silent but Ruhi "the pampered princess" Ruhi was not one to give up so easily.

"Bhai, Now don't vent your frustration and anger on us. Aa jayegi bhabhi. Ab aapke pass nahi aayegi to kaha jayegi" saying this Ruhi giggled and winked at ekaksh.

"Ruhi, don't" Ekaksh had just said this when he heard the sweet and melodious sound of anklets.

He slowly turned around and looked ,his breath went hitched.

There she was wearing yellow anarkali suit pairing up with small jhumka. She kept her hair open which reached till her waist. In the name of makeup, she only applied kajal. She stood there with her eyes down. This was enough to increase Ekaksh heartbeat.

"Uff misthi, " ekaksh mumbled under the breathe while looking misthi.
