************************************

The dark overcast sky complimented with the beauty of illuminated crescent moon accompanied by fellow shining stars undoubtedly added wonders to the night view of crowded Bhangarh. Tall buildings, skyscrapers, pretty houses, decent cottages, cozy cafes, the streetlights reflecting light on the busy roads. Everything seemed simply beautiful. But as it is said that every coin has two sides and everything isn't the same as it appears to be. There are miseries, jealousy, competition, corruption, exploitation and much more....

A busy crowded city where everyone are having their own dreams, a hope gleaming in their eyes to achieve what they are dreaming off. Some will genuinely work hard, some will use foul means. Doesn't matters, they will get what they deserve cz destiny plays its game at the end.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Walking at a completely deserted road, feeling the gush of cold wind she trembles but again stands still reminding herself that no one else but she will have to take care of herself from now onwards. Taking few more steps forward, fully ignoring the danger sign board, she sits at the edge of the cliff maybe lost in her own thoughts. She admires the beauty of night sky as she looks up and a tear rolls down her pale cheek. She bits her inner cheeks trying to control her sobs. She clutches her dress more tightly still gawking at the moon, maybe complaining something which she is unable of complaining vocally. She's completely silent as her eyes blazing with tons of emotions screams louder than she herself could. Wiping off almost dried tears from her face, she stands fisting her hands, her own nails digging into her soft skin but her face showed no emotions at all. Seems like she don't wants to complain, fight or feel sorry for herself anymore. With a strong flame of burning confidence and determination within her soul, she stood up deciding to start afresh. Maybe she's successful in getting back her lost hope for which she had actually came here. Far away from the double faced city, here this deserted place soothes her chaotic soul and brings alot calmness in her, giving her a new positive reason of why she shouldn't die....

-----------------------------------------------------------

Annanya Verma the only daughter of Raghuvendra Verma and the heir to the palace of Vermas in Bhangarh. Her father sent her an email requesting her to come back home, the palace where everybody is eagerly waiting for her arrival. Since her childhood years, she had stayed away from her home. Though she love her father Raghuvendra a lot, she couldn't move on from the fact that her happy family broke up bcz of her father's affair with Ketki. She knew her father was happy with Ketki and this triggered her more cz she and her mother Ayesha ever since Raghuvendra abandoned them, they both craved for him and his love while he never ever bothered to even contact them, they (Annanya and Ayesha) supported each other and tried to be each other's happiness defeating the loneliness which surrounded them due to Raghuvendra's absence.

Its been a few months since Ayesha passed away but Raghuvendra didn't even came for her funeral. Annanya was indeed shocked to receive an unexpected email from her father which acted as salt on her fresh wounds causing her to cry for hours. He wanted her to return back to him, he wanted to give her all the love which she deserved being his only daughter. She was too emotinal but she didn't wanted to go back to her father who was the sole reason for her and Ayesha's miseries. She made a firm decision that she would rather die than facing her father.

-----------------------------------------------------------

A chill ran down through her spine as she was standing in front of the huge Verma palace. The sky above the palace was dark and stormy, a foreboding sign of the danger that lay ahead. The air contained a mysterious aura which raised the curiosity in her already questioned fill eyes.

Ketki welcomed her with a very appealing smile. Without even caring to spare a glance at her..she looked inside the palace. The halls were silent and dusty like a desolate place where no one had set foot in years. 'Baba' was the first word she uttered. She was silent for all the time before. Ketki looked at her suspiciously trying to figure out what was going in her mind.

Ketki's breath hitched as she turned to look at her...
"Where is Baba" she asked...
Ketki stuttered a bit but she had already prepared her answers
"Your baba has went for some important business trip..he was so excited to meet you...he will return soon.." ketki answered faking a smile......

While she was just confused if Raghuvendra was so excited to meet her, if he wanted to ask forgiveness for all the mistakes he did then why he's not present...why he asked her to come when he was away...why wasn't he picking her calls..why he didn't came for Ayesha's funeral.. why did he forgot that Ayesha n Avni also existed all the questions in her mind came to an hault as she felt a presence behind her...

"Is there someone else except us" she asked Ketki....
All the colours of Ketki's face flew away listening her...

Will mention Neel and Neela in next update..this was a short one as i completed it in hurry just to give u a bit idea of the plot....it will be interesting in further updates
