Ranbir was tired of being stuck between the two sisters. The one he wanted to be with was pushing him away and the one whom he wanted as far as possible from him was clinging to him.

He knew what he did with Prachi was wrong but he had already apologized for it and do so million times more but she wasn't ready to sit and talk with him. He wanted to make her understand how he was blackmailed to marry Rhea but she wouldn't listen to him.

On the other hand, he desperately wanted to push Rhea off a cliff or at least give her a tight slap but couldn't do so because of his mother and his respect for women.

Another fight had broken out earlier in the morning regarding who would serve him the breakfast and he had chosen to leave the table without having anything.

All he needed was the peace of mind.

.....

Prachi was extremely worried for Ranbir. He was out since the morning and God knew if he had eaten anything yet.

"Why does he always have to show his anger? If he was frustrated at me, why did he have to vent it out on the food. Not that I care for him, bit wasting food is a bad habit." She had been blabbering the same thing since a long time.

Shahana saw her and smiled like an idiot.

"What are you smiling at?" Prachi snapped.

"You still love him a lot. Why are you hiding it?"

"I don't care for him. He has Rhea to worry for him." Prachi flared her nose.

"See baby, your mummy is a liar." Shahana spoke to Prachi's stomach.

"Hey! You can't complain about me to baby."

"I can."

Their conversation was interrupted by the ringing of the door bell. Knowing that it might be Ranbir, Prachi rushed to open the door.

She opened the door and was about to say something but Rhea flung herself on Ranbir before that.

"Where were you Ranbir? I was so worried about you."

Ranbir brushed her aside without getting irritated as he normally did.

"You don't have to worry about me from now."

Prachi noticed that he seemed to be excited about something and insecurities began clouding her mind again. She thought he was planning for something related to Rhea.

In the meanwhile Ranbir had assembled each member of his house and announced that a party was going to be held the next day. When Pallavi asked the reason for the celebration, his words were "it's for someone special."

"He is planning to surprise you." Alia whispered to Rhea.

"I think he wants to apologize to you and repair your relationship." Shahana told Prachi.

Both the sisters had hopes in their heart though the elder one masked it and the younger one displayed it more than necessary; one for getting her deserved life and the other for succeeding in her evil intentions.
