NOT A CHANCE (on hold)

8.

Rana mansion,

Main Hall,

Ahana Rana happened to be in a foul mood even on her engagement party, which look more a sophisticated award event, but there was nothing much in the party to set her mood right. The reason to her foul mood was none other than her own love, her to be finance; Ahana could've never expected the oberois to actually accept Yash's invitation and turn up to her events, especially after Sid's and Anika's news. She really wanted Sid and Anika to come together as a couple, as she thought that they are meant to be together, after all they didn't leave each other at their lowest points, so they had this right to come up on the success ladder together too. She walks around the party, greeting and welcoming people, but what she didn't realise was how quickly she reached to older oberois, who were recently joined by SHIVOMRU. 

Ahana bends down and takes blessings from the older oberoi's (Dadi, tej,shakti, pinky and janvi). 

Ah- Thank you so much for coming Dadi,( she warmly hold dadi's hand, as she doesn't really feel like talking to anyone else from the family) 

Pinky- what's the need for the thank yous... huh.... after all, we had to come to give blessings na... after all, Yash and you both are like family...

Ahana smiles lightly, but one thing she knew for sure was to not become a part of the oberois family, she knew what they meant by the word family. According to them family is only blood lineage and nothing more...."Ahana" .... She heard the sweet voice calling out for her, making her turn around...

Ah- Ani bhabi....(she says smilingly, she as so happy to finally see one of her family members. Ahana was a hard girl to please with anything, but Anika's few gestures flattered her in the first meet of theirs, and since then she felt a strong sister-like connection with her and she knows that its there forever now)

Anika- Ahana , here you are... come on now we need to start the ceremony now, before Yash gets more impatient...(she laughs off a bit in the end, teasing Ahana..., as she also tries to ignore the oberois standing next to her, because she knows that if she even turns to look at dadi, one single look from dadi could make her re-think things a certain amount of times. Not anyone else but dadi, because no matter what, she can't hate the women, who fought with her billu for her, to get her rights as an oberoi bahu, so she just tried to ignore them, ignore HIM)

Ah- Bhabi please, ?(Ahana says shyly)

Anika and Ahana walks to the stage, as the oberoi's stand there in full shock. Being upset was a small phrase to what shivaay felt right now. He wanted to burn down the whole world, and just hide away in a corner with his Anika. He knew he had to talk to her, tell her to stop this drama of marriage with Sid. He want to tell her that he is still here for her, he always belonged to her and she always belonged to him. 

"Ladies and Gentlemen... Can I have everyone's attention to this beautiful couple please...." Aditya Rana speaks into the mic, to grab everyone's attention towards him, being successful in what he wanted, he continued....

ADI- Thank you so much for coming tonight, Can I request if everyone can come closer to the stage now to join the celebration of the new journey of my sister  and our new Bro Yash. Good luck bro....( he says to Yash as all the guest move closer to the stage, as they watch Yash and Ahana exchange their rings.)

But the two people in the crowd who didn't have any interest in the newly engaged couple where  Shivaay and Pooja. Shivaay was too busy staring at his so called ex-wife Anika, who was standing next to Sid on the stage smiling and chatting along with him. Whilst Pooja, was staring at shivaay, who was totally ignoring her existence. What Shivaay missed was the way Pooja was looking at him, with so much love that it could suffocate him. Pooja analyse Shivaay's face, his soft skin, his forever colour changing eyes, in which she wanted to be lost forever. But to her misfortune,  those eyes held love for someone else, as she followed the way shivaay was looking, towards none other then his ex-wife. Yes, she agree that Anika and shivaay weren't divorced through papers but she did marry him. She was the one who looked after his Dadi, when they were too busy in finding there so called bahu, Anika. She was the one, who looked after everyone's meals, she was the one spending her time in the kitchen, cooking, or helping dadi, gauri bhavya or just anyone else in their house, but here he was standing here, staring at someone else's wife, claiming her to be his. She wanted him to feel the same love for her, she wanted him to look at her the same way he looks at Anika, she wanted him to be hers and now she will make him hers, no matter what anyone else say, he is her husband and no one can change that fact for.
