Vani : A saga of Mystery and Love

Confrontations

Bani returned from Naaglok, she was thinking about the information that is warning she got.As she approached her apartment, the weight of everything she had learned pressed heavily on her shoulders. She unlocked the door and stepped inside, the familiar surroundings offering a small comfort in her turmoil.She sank into her couch, replaying the sage's words in her mind. "Jo apna dikh raha hai vo apna nahi aur jisse tum dushman bana baithi vo paraya nahi." The words echoed in her head, leaving her more confused than ever. The sage had hinted at a deep, ancient connection with Aakesh, who was now Veeranshu, and had warned her to trust her heart.

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

Veeranshu couldn't shake the image of Bani transforming into her Naagin form. The revelation left him reeling, but it also made him realize the depth of his feelings for her. He knew he needed to talk to her, he wanted to know what she thinks about their connections from ages.

He stood outside Bani's apartment, his heart pounding in his chest. Gathering his courage, he knocked on the door.

Bani opened it, her eyes widening in surprise. "Veer? What are you doing here?"

"I need to talk to you," Veer said, his voice filled with urgency. "Please, let me in."

Reluctantly, Bani stepped aside, allowing him to enter as she didn't want to create any scene in her new building.The room seemed to shrink as they faced each other, the air thick with tension.

"I saw you today," Veer began, his gaze intense. "I saw you transform.Tum Naagin ho aur Naageshwari bhi.Muze humara past pata chal gaya hai ."

Bani was shocked but said "Toh ab tumhe pata chal gaya. Ab kya karoge?"

"I'm not here to fight," Veer said softly, taking a step closer. "I'm here because I need to understand. There's something between us, Bani. Something I can't explain, but I feel it deeply."

Bani took a step back, her heart racing but her expression firm. "Tum samajhte nahi ho, Veer. Hamare vansh dushman hain. Hum saath nahi ho sakte.Humare past hi kafi ye sabit karne ke liye ki tum aur mai ek nahi ho sakte."

"Is that what you truly believe?" Veer asked, his voice dropping to a whisper. He took another step closer, closing the distance between them. "Because I don't. I believe there's more to us than just our clans. I felt it the moment I saw you.Past is past let's keep it that way ."

"Chhodo yeh bakwas, Veer. Tumhare jazbaat mere liye kuch nahi maayne rakhte. Tum bas ek aur dushman ho."
said Bani as the closing distance between them was not helping her poor heart who was melting away in Veer's presence.

Veer's jaw tightened, but he refused to back down. "Main tumhara dushman nahi hoon, Bani. Main woh aadmi hoon jo tumse pyaar karta hai, jo kuch bhi karega tumhe paane ke liye.Jisne sadiyo se tumhare intezaar Kiya hai ."

"Pyaar?" Bani scoffed, crossing her arms. "Tumhe lagta hai yeh pyaar hai? Tum mujhe jaante bhi nahi. Na Aaj jante ho and tab jante the."

"I know enough," Veer shot back, his voice rising. "Mujhe pata hai ki jab bhi main tumhare paas hota hoon, mera dil zinda mehsoos karta hai. Mujhe pata hai ki tum bhi kuch mehsoos karti ho, chahe tum mane se inkaar karo."

Bani's expression hardened, but she couldn't deny the truth in his words. She felt a pull towards him, something she couldn't explain or ignore. But she wouldn't let him see that. She couldn't.She had her reasons.

"Tum paagal ho, Veer," she said coldly. "Yeh sirf ek attraction hai. Yeh guzar jayega."

Veer stepped even closer, his breath warm against her face. "Yeh  attraction nahi hai, Bani. Yeh pyaar hai jo itne saalo tak nahi gaya.  Aur main isse kabhi jayega bhi nahi."

Bani's pulse quickened, but she stood her ground. "Humara kuch nahi ho sakta, Veer. Kabhi nahi."

Veer's eyes darkened with a mix of determination and longing. "Hum dekhenge. Main tumhe sabit karke dikhaunga ki hum ek ho sakte hain."

Bani's heart pounded in her chest, but she refused to let him see her wavering. "Tum sabit karte raho. Isse kuch farq nahi padega."

"Hum dekhenge," Veer said, his voice low and intense. "Main tumhe dekha dunga."

Before Bani could react, Veer closed the remaining distance between them, his lips almost brushing hers. The air between them crackled with tension, their breaths mixing together. For a moment, everything else faded away, leaving only the electric connection between them.

"Tum meri ho, Bani," Veer whispered, his voice a seductive promise. "Chahe tum mano ya na mano."

Bani's breath hitched, but she quickly regained her composure. She pushed him away, her eyes flashing with anger. "Mujhse door raho, Veer. Mujhe tumhari zaroorat nahi."

Veer smirked, his eyes never leaving hers. "Ye sirf tumhara dimag keh Raha hai apne dil ki bhi.sunlo kabhi.Dekhte hain tum yeh kitni der tak keh sakti ho."

With that, he turned and walked out of the apartment, leaving Bani standing there, her heart racing and her mind full of conflicting emotions.

As the door closed behind him, Bani clenched her fists, her determination intensified .She wouldn't let him get to her. She couldn't. But deep down, she knew it wouldn't be that simple.She knew their love was forbidden.
