It has been one year since Aarthi's death, Virender and Ishika stopped calling Abhay or Isha. No one knows where they are and how they are. Abhay is trying hard to find them, but he is not getting a single clue.
"Tanuj, what do you think, where they might have disappeared?" asked Abhay, looking outside the window.
"Not a slightest clue, our people are trying hard," replied Tanuj.
"Do you think they are in any danger?" asked Abhay again.
"I think so, because your dad can't stay without talking to you for that long," replied Tanuj.
"Tanuj, we have to do something, we can't sit here waiting for their reply, use other sources, do whatever you can, just get in touch with them," said Abhay, walking towards his chair.
"I will look into it, I think I know someone who can find them," said Tanuj and started to leave.
"Are there any meetings scheduled for today?" asked Abhay.
"Yes, one at 4 pm," said Tanuj.
"Cancel or postpone that meeting, I am going to the park, I need some me time, I am not feeling like sitting here thinking about them," said Abhay and Tanuj nodded his head as okay and left from there.
Abhay went to the park and sat on the bench and started looking at the plants while thinking about Virender and Ishika. The last time he spoke to Virender was after the death of Aarthi, he said that he was going to America to meet his friend and after that he never called or received the call.
One lady came and settled beside him and he looked at her confused as she was wearing a saree and her face was covered fully with the saree's end.
"Don't look at me or try to talk, just listen to what I am saying. They killed some of our loyal people, we have been trying hard to hold what is ours, we have been hiding since one year, but there is a mole in our army, who is forwarding information about our whereabouts, I don't know how long it will go on," said the lady and Abhay widened his eyes and looked at her in shock and asked, "mom?"
"I asked you not to talk, I don't know if they have followed me till here, just listen, you always asked Veer to tell his story, but he was not able to do that because he was not sure how you are going to react, but today I came here to tell our story, spend some time holding your hand, because it never happened," said Ishika and Abhay put his hand on the bench and she put her hand on his.
"Ishika Rajvansh, daughter of king Devjit Rajvansh, we were more than friends, dad got trained me in everything, because I was the only daughter and he know I was the one who is going to rule his kingdom, and I did bachelors in business to take over his business as well, but his brother always wanted that kingdom and business, but dad always kept him away from us, as he was a cruel person."
"So, you are fighting with your own people?" asked Abhay.
"Yes, but everything started Virender came into our life and I became pregnant for the first time," said Ishika.
"Then I want to know your love story as well," said Abhay and Ishika started laughing and kissed the back of his hand.
Flashback
"Hey Ish, this is not the way you look after the accounts, and not the way you talk to your employees," said Devjit.
"Dad, they don't even know how to show me the accounts, they are all following the old ways," said Ishika.
"Then teach them, they show me that way and I don't have a problem with it as I am old, if you want them to work in your way, then you have to teach them," said Devjit.
