As Soon As Abhir Saw Abhinav He Was Going To Run And Hug Him But Abhimanyu Held Him Back. The kid Was Struggling To Go And Hug Him. He Just Wanted To Go And Meet His Papa Aara, Who Loved Him Unconditionally. Who Always Supported Him. But The Strong Grip On His Shoulders Where Making Difficult For Him.

And For Abhimanyu Let's Just Say That If Seeing Akshara Again Married To Abhinav Four Years Ago Was Biggest Shock Of His Life Then This Moment Can Comprehend Head To That. Cause Seeing Him Alive Standing Front Him As Aarohi's Husband Can Just Give Him PTSD (POST TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER) Till Next Life.

But When He Turned To Look At His Akshu's Reaction He Just Found Her Staring At Abhinav Constantly. And To Be Honest It Felt Like His Life Sucked Out Him. He Wanted To Shout At Her. He Wanted To Punch Him. He Wanted To Throw Things But Save His Goody Good Image He Just Throw Most Hateful Glare To Abhinav.

While All Of This Things Where Going On One Soul Stood Unaware Of Her Surrounding. As If Every Person Standing Front Of Her Just Disappear And, Only Her And Her Abhinav Was Standing There.

She Wanted To Do Many Things. She Just Wanted To Run In His Arms And Hug Her Life Out Of It. She Wanted To Touch Him, Feel Him, And Love Him To See If He Is Real Or Her Imagination.

When She Woke Up Today, Don't Know What She Was Feeling That Something Big Is About Happen. You Know When Your Intuition Warn You To Be Prepared, Something Will Happen. It Can Be Either Good Or Either Bad. But Shrugging Of That Feeling She Excitedly Got Ready To Meet Her Sister And Was Happy Untill She Saw Him. And What Shocked Her Most Was When She Heard Aarohi Introducing Him As Abhay Luthra. But Her Heart Didn't Even Beleive It For Second. She Knew It Was Him. It Was Abhinav. Her Abhinav. Abhinav Sharma Not Abhay Luthra. And Even If He Is, It Doesn't Matter To Her. The Only Thing She Wanted To Is Be In His Arms.

But One Thing She Didn't Realise That Her Relation With Him Is Not Same. She Is Not His Wife Anymore. She Is Now A Stranger Whom He Will Now Know Her As His Wife's Sister.

On Other Hand Aarohi Saw All Of These Things. Akshara, Abhimanyu And Abhir Expression Where Telling Her Whole Story. She Can See The Confusion On Their Face. And It Was Not Good, She Feel The Thick Tansion In The Air. She Can Read Questions On Her Family Face. The Confusing Look Of Trio Where Raising The Question's And She Knew If Kareena Bua Started To Question Her Up Then No One Will Be Able To Stop Her. And If She Get Questioned Then She Want Be Able To Answer.

So To Diminish All The Confusion, Questioning Look And Tension She Came Forward To Greet And Hug Akshara.

As Soon As She Hug, It Made Akshara Break Her Gaze Of Abhinav And Look Away.

After Sometime Akshara Realised That Aarohi Was Hugging Her And She Was Just Standing And Not Responding Her Hug. And Looking Around She Can Tell That Everyone And Even Aarohi Who Was Hugging Her Feelings Awkward At Her Lack Of Response. Feeling Awkward Aarohi Was About To Pull Out Of Hug But Before She Could Do That Akshara Hugged Her Back Tightly.

After Sometime Both Sister Pull Out Of Hug And Look At Eachother As Small Smile Played On Their Lips.

To Be Said Both Of Them Very At Least Happy Seeing Eachother After Long Time. Even Through The Constant Conflicts And Up's & Down's Between Them, They Are And Mostly Aarohi At Least Is At Neutral Point Of Relation And Are Happy Meeting Eachother. But One Thing That Was Irking Aarohi Was Akshara's Time To Time Glancing At Her Husband.

Akshara Can Feel Aarohi's Gaze On Her When She Looked At Abhinav So Too Avoid The Questioning Look Of Her, She Completely Turned Her Attention To Aarohi.

" Kaisi Hai Aaru? " She Asked In Soft Meek Voice.

" Thik Hu! Khush Hu! Apne Apno Ke Saath! " Aarohi Said While Secretly Glancing At Her Husband.

" Tu Kaisi Hai? " She Softly Asked While Averting Her Gaze From Husband And Turning Her Attention To Akshara.

" I Am Fine! Mujhe Apne Pariwar Se Nahi Milayegi? "

And Hearing This Aarohi Gestured Trio To Come. And Soon She Introduced Everyone To Akshara At Last One Person Was Left.

" Aur Yeh Kon Hai? " Akshara Asked While Looking At Abhinav.

And Before Aarohi Could Say Anything Someone Came And Held Her Hand. She Can Feel The Soft Yet Firm Grip Holding Her. She Looks Up To See Who Was It. And To Be Said Not Just Her But Everyone Standing There Were Shocked. And Especially Luthra Family!!

Cause Never In Their Three Years Of Marriage He Has Touched Her Or Looked Her Inappropriately. And His Touch Made Her Feel like Home. Like She Belonged Here. Like She Meant To Be Here To Be With Him. He Felt Like Home. For The First Time She Felt Important And That By Just His Mere Touch.

Akshara Could See The Connection Between Two. The Way Abhinav Came And Held Hand And The Way Aarohi Was Looking At Him Made Her Feel Sick In Stomach. She Could See The ' Mangal Sutra ' And ' Sindoor ' Adoring Aarohi's Neck and Forehead. And It Bring Out The Worst Fear Of Her. Hoping It Doesn't Turn Out The Way She Thinks. But His Next Word Made Her Nightmare Come True.

" Hi, I Am Abhay Luthra. Aarohi's Husband And Roohi's Father." Abhay Aka Abhinav Said While Holding Hand And Softly Glancing At Aarohi. Making Her Eyes Widened In Surprise More.

While Aarohi Shy From His Soft Gaze. Akshara Was In Pure Pain.

" Nice To Meet You " He Said While Reluctantly Looking Away From Her. And Forward His Hand To Handshake With Abhimanyu.

When Abhimanyu Was Going To Do Handshake With Him Abhay Phone's Rang And Abhay Leaving Arru's Hand Saying " Excuse Me " Left. Leaving Abhimanyu's Hand Hanging In The Air.

The Second Hand Embarrassment Is What Abhimanyu Is Feeling Right Now. And Sinckers Of Luthra Boys Didn't Help His Already Wearing Off Patience.

Manish Can See Abhimanyu Losing His Patience. So He Told Everyone To Come In.

.....................................................................

Everyone Was Sitting And Asking About Eachother And Getting To Know Eachother While Having Snack's.

" Kya Ho Gaya Humari Rajkumari Sa Ko, Baat Kyu Nahi Kar Rahi? Humse Naraz Hai Kya? Humse Koi Galti Ho Gayi Kya? " Swarna Asked Noticing Roohi Not Talking.

Instead Of Getting Answer She Just Ran And Hide Behind Her Mumma. Swarna Looked At Aarohi Questionly. And Aarohi Just Let Out Chuckle.

" Kya Ho Gaya Aap Mumma Ke Piche Kyu Chipp Rahe Ho? "

" Kuch Nahi Hai Badi Ma Bas Concious Ho Rahi. Thoda Time Dijiye, Phir Aese Bhagayegi Na Aap Sabko Apne Piche Ki Pakde Haath Mein Nahi Aageyi. " Aarohi Said Making Swarna Smile.

And Soon Again Everyone Got Engaged Conversation. But Our Aarohi Now And Then Was Glancing At Doorway Waiting For Her Husband To Grace Them With His Presence. Mimi Noticed Her Waiting So She Thought To Ask About Him.

" Aarohi Jamai Sa Abhi Tak Nahi Aaye? Koi Tension To Nahi Haina? "

" Nahi Nahi Mimi Woh Office Se Call Aaya Hai Isiliye Itna Time Lag Raha Hai, Abhi Bas Aate Hee Honge. " She Said Smiling Awkwardly. To Save Herself From Further More Embarassment She Said...

" Ek Kaam Karti Hu Mein Hee Unhe Bula Ke Aati Hu. " And Left To Call Her Husband Inside .
