"No Avni you are not going anywhere......" Ayush said making Avni confused.

"Why Ayush?.... I came here to meet you. I had so many questions and now when I got my answers why would I stay here. You have no idea how I spent these past days here. You know, I had never been away from my family until now. I miss them every single minute and my mother, do you know how worried she is for me? She calls me every single day and asks me to come back but I denied because I didn't want to go home empty handed but now there is no reason to stay...." She explained and looked at him with confusing face.

His parents were also could not understand, why he was stopping her? Before he himself wanted to get rid of her and now he was doing the complete opposite.....why??They were looking at him questionably.
Ayush saw them and gestured something. Then he again addressed Avni.

"I know everything Avni. I know it is very hard to live without your family. I too spent a long time without my parents. I know how it feels but sometimes we have to do this, for the betterment of our loved once...." He said but Avni could not get it. She was looking at him with confused face.

"Avni look. Mumbai the city of dreams... People dream to come here and you are already here. It's destiny Avni. See you have completed your graduation.. Now what?..... There is no scope in Chandigarh but here opportunities are in abundance and you are already working for Mr. Vikrant Kashyap. I am sure he is paying you well. So why do you want to leave everything?" He kept his point.

But Avni was still not sure about this decision. Staying more at Vikrant's house.... This mere thought was troubling her. Only she knew how she was staying there. Some minutes ago how happy she felt to think that finally she would get rid of him but now Ayush wanted her to continue staying with him.... She was in great dilemma. Ayush could see her dropped face but he didn't want her to return at any cost so he further tried tricks to manipulate her.

"Avni, please think again. Now you can help your family financially and we are here if you need anything. I think you should stay here for some more time and as soon as the money is arranged we will together go to chandigarh.  .." He explained his point.

"You are right Ayush but what about ma and Bulbul?" She questioned.

"Don't worry about them Avni, we will talk to them. I am sure there will be no problem...." He said with confidence. There was a peculiar happiness on his face.

Avni thought about what he said.

I think he is right. I shouldn't go back now and by staying here, I could keep an eye on Ayush as well so that there would be no misunderstanding next time... And about that devil... I would try not to come in front of him. If we never see each other, he won't be able to trouble me.... She was thinking keenly.

"All right Ayush.... As you say...."  As she said Ayush's lips curled up to form a mischievous smile.

"Great.... Now let's celebrate...." He said cheerfully.

Avni spent about an hour with them she finally bid them goodbye and left from there. As soon as she left his parents confronted him.

"What was that Ayush?.... Why you stopped her from going back to chandigarh? What are you planning? Why this sudden change? You yourself told us you are not interested in her, now what happened?...." His father bombarded him with questioned.

"Relax dad...... I know what I am doing. Have not you heard her. She is working and staying at Vikrant Kashyap's place. Do you have any Idea, who is he?...." He asked with wide eyes.

"Yes, I know he is some director...." His father answered.

"Some director..... No dad.... He is The Vikrant Kashyap. .... No. 1 producer and director of this film industry. You know big stars use to wait to work with him. He is like soccerous stone, who can make anything gold just by touching it. Working in his just one movie can make you successful and can give you stardom. You know since the last two years I wanted to meet him but I did not get any chance. Meeting with him is not so easy but now through Avni I have a chance to meet him and impress him. If he gets impressed then no one can stop me from becoming a superstar...." He told them proudly.
