Mayukh POV:

"I don't know Bhabhi, but she was there, in front of my eyes."
"Wow. This is God giving you a second chance Mayukh."
"Please. Don't say all that."
"Why not Mayukh? Come on! Ruyash, tell him!" "I agree with you Manisha, but he needs to listen."
"Mayukh, you have her again, don't lose her this time."

After she left, I had told everyone at home about our past. Now they all are in awe and they love her so much, so much that my anger gets overpowered.

"I'm gonna spend the night at Armaan's place. I'll meet you in the office tomorrow." I said and I left to go to Armaan's room. 

"Nikita? Here?" He said, shocked.
"Yep. We met her at the event. She's the head intern at IBM."
"They'll be there tommorow then. Unless they decide not to bring their interns."
"Only Nikita. She always was smart. They love her."
"She has a loveable personality. It's just you who finds flaws."
"You've read the letter. You all have, and you're still telling me that she's not wrong."
"I told you then and I'm telling you again. I don't think that letter is genuine. It's either written out of force or it's not her who wrote it."
"What?"
"I agree she wrote you a letter but that's not Nikita. I don't believe she'd say things like that." 

I sighed, reviving into the past:

I found her letter as we searched the whole house for her.

Mayukh,
This is the second time you've kissed me without my consent. You're a horrible person and frankly I don't even know how I'm married to a playboy like you. Thank God our marriage isn't registered and I'd like it that way. I'm leaving you for good, take this excuse of a mangalsutra and sindoor and keep with you. Your family and you all are hi-fi spoilt brats and I don't want to be associated to a fake family like you.
Don't contact or try to find me again, I'm happier without you.

My blood boiled.

"—Hello?" Armaan nudged my arm.
"Sorry. What were you saying?"
"I'm saying that this letter isn't her. I'm telling you."
"I don't know."
"Put a hand on your heart. Do you believe she'd write that?"
"No. I don't."
"Then?"
"I stopped listening to my gut a long time ago. Anyway, let's watch a movie. We have to get to work tomorrow."

Nikita POV:

I ran into my room and locked my bathroom door. Tears were falling from my face. Why God, why do you do this? Why do you bring me in front of the one family I can't see?! Why?!

"Are you okay Niki? What happened? Why are you crying?" Esha said, coming in panic.
I opened the door and fell into her arms, "He... he's here."
"What?"
"M...Mayuk...Mayukh."
"Oh." She said and tightened her wrap around me, "How did you... react?"
"I didn't. I just said hello and left. Why Esha, why?"

I had told her everything between us when I reached here. I told her about how I tried to ask him about us and I heard his entire story. I heard how far he wants to be away from me. So I gave him what he wanted.

"Hey, just relax. Look, it's over now. You won't see them again. If you do, then just keep his words in your mind. He doesn't want to see you, so you stay professional. That's it." Esha said and I finally calmed down.
I nodded, "I'll stay quiet."
"And professional. You still want your career, don't sabotage that."
I nodded.
"Come now, let's watch a movie or go out. Which would you like to do?"
"Let's go out. I want to go sit by the water."
"Come then!"

We headed out. We sat by the water and enjoyed our time before heading home.

I really hope I don't need to see him again at work, if I do, then I'll keep myself away.
