~She cares for me~

Before you blindly vote for the chapter, I would like to inform you that I have changed some dialogues and deleted some situations as of now! So, to understand the upcoming story, please read this update carefully!!!

Shivaay hears her sound but doesn't react. He holds his chest and slowly the discomfort goes.

Shivaay:(murmurs a bit loudly so that she can hear) "Let me take the medicines"

He goes near the cupboard near their bed, but instead goes to the side and takes the phone. Annika gets shocked and was about to cut the call, but then Shivaay interrupted.

Shivaay: "Don't cut the call, Annika. Don't do it. I want to talk to you."

Annika:(boldly)"I don't want to talk to you."

Shivaay: "Really, Annika? You don't want to talk to me? Why did you do that in front of the media? I am not a fool to think that Annika, who doesn't care about Naam, Khoon and Khaandan, would do this, that too, publicly. Tell me the truth."

Annika: (not making eye contact)"What I did was, what I felt. I have no regrets about that."

Shivaay: "Okay, fine, I believe it. Then why were you hiding when I was talking to Sahil? Why did you want to see me when I got this attack? Why did you take videos of me, a few days ago in the kitchen? Why Annika? If you don't regret it or you weren't forced to do it, then why did you do all those?"

Annika: "Because of your Naam, Khoon and Khaandan policy. Simple. You insulted me for not having it. So, I insulted your brother for not having it."

Shivaay: "What if I say I don't care about it? Yes, I did throw you out in front of the media, but it was in anger. I will ask forgiveness in front of them, just for you!"

Annika got shocked. She wasn't expecting such a response. She expected him to get angry at her or shout at her or just cut the call in anger, but he didn't do any of these and was asking her the reason for doing it. She didn't know how to react. She kept mum.

Shivaay: "You know, if you haven't done that, that day, then you could have known about it. Annika, whatever maybe, the reason you did that day, was all futile. Yes, I got angry at that moment. Tell me. I know you are hiding things from me. Is that thing more valuable to you, than me? then our love? Tell me, Annika..."

Annika was silent. Tears were forming in her eyes. She was confused about whether to tell him. She really wants to tell him the truth, but what if he doesn't believe the fact, that his mother is responsible for it.

Annika: "Shivaay, I can't tell you the truth for sure. It's not possible. I am not going to say why I did because you won't believe it. That's for sure. So, let's stop the topic here. Anyways, we are getting divorced. So, let's move on with our lives..."

Shivaay: "I haven't filed them even now. I am waiting for you. (Pauses) Annika, look at me...Can you move on?"

Annika looked down and sideways. She knew that she can't move on, whatsoever happens. She wants him beside her, but she can't tell the truth to him.

Shivaay: "So, as you are silent, it seems you can't move on. Similarly, even I can't move on, Annika. I can't move on. You know I am standing, where you have left me. I can't and I won't move from here till you come back to my life and stay with me. The Annika, I saw 2-3 days before is not the Annika I knew. You were playing a drama in front of me, right? Tell me. You were playing a drama, right? I know it. I know my brothers are playing along with you."

Annika was nodding her head, indicating a denial, but Shivaay continued.

Shivaay: "Annika, all I want to say is I am not a fool. I have seen their reactions and others too. You all like to play with my feelings and life, right? Do it how much ever you want, but I don't know how much can I keep it inside. If you still feel, something is worth more than my love, then you don't need to hear me out. I am not going to call you or talk regarding this anymore after this. I will never call you out in my life, neither will I call anyone else. Never. But if you think it's not worth my love for you, then when I come to call you back, tomorrow, come with me. I would never ask what made you do this. I don't want to know that truth. I will come there to get you back to our house, our room and my life. Bye."
