Different shades of Surbhi.

Part 82.

As the saying goes....there is a thin line between hate and love...which will apply in this episode.

Back to story.
Still Pune.
A different scenery....Anika is sitting on a cliff....(a dead end)...but not too worries.... fortunately....she knows her way home.

Anika...the ever bubbly and optimistic girl...today...she's shattered into pieces.....and even her charisma...that makes her to be Anika.

Let's see...what's happening to her...... although Anika tries her best to hate Shivaay...she simply can't....even with the humiliation and disgrace he has brought to her......let's find out what she's thinking so deeply.

"All my life I firmly believed that all men are the same.....I thought I was proven wrong...by finally meeting him.....or to put how Gauri puts it..... prince charming....but no....I was mistaken....I was in an illusion....but now....I have smelt the coffee.....looks look deceiving..... moreover....you shouldn't trust anybody...even yourself....it was a dream...but now...it's time I get up from this stupid dream....and face the harsh cold reality....but what still bothers me.....is why him....and why.....I can't seem to hate him....how much I try.... anyways....he could just been frank with me....if he had...all this  couldn't reach this point," Anika thought.

But what was done...was done.

Reality was dawning up here.

Shivaay was to be blamed....but he wasn't on the wrong either.... trusting people blindly...cost him a lot in the past.... so he didn't want the same mistake to repeat itself.

As of now...we are at fence sitters... because each and one of them.... wasn't wrong either...they had their reasons.

Anyways....enough with this love triangle...let's switch sides to Mumbai...it's being long... don't you think?

Let's see what's up...with Anika's sisters.

Starting...with Ishani....Ishani was reliving the popular Disney story.... Cinderella....she was living a fairy tale....she was happy with Sid.... because Sid gave her everything ( Not money... luxuries...but all the happiness in the world...a girl could ever ask for)..... moreover.....I guess the universe and fate were on her side....at first Sidisha....were really scared...what if either of parents couldn't accept their relationship...but that wasn't the case....both the girls and boys side.... consented to their relationship.

Switching gears to Bani.....I guess...was it her bad fate...or probably misdeeds of the past...or what.... everything was going absolutely wrong for her.....though Veer gave his all to her.....Bani wasn't happy in their relationship...she was still in it... because of his fame...name and money...and the guarantee of a good future....which means goodies ( which include: wife inheritance....her own boutique...and a guarantee future for her children)....to make matters worse than they are already are.....the private investigator...she hired.....took off with all her money....turns out the company he worked for...was all a scam....shady.... illegal... illegitimate...all the possible words you can use to describe this scenario...and if you think this is the worse...then this is just a tip of iceberg....the money she gave him....was 3/4 of her salary and not to mention savings.

Back to Pune.
To the lead couple of the story.

To be specific Anika.
Anika finally got a grip of herself....after shouting and screaming....as since in the movies and soap operas to get rid of the anger, resentment and frustration....so she tried it....it didn't work...but made feel slightly better.

Fortunately,she had enough gasoline in her scooter to go home...she reached...before entering her apartment...she tried washing her face....so that Aruna cannot figure out she was crying.

She arrived.

She found Aruna sitted.

"Dear....thank goodness your home....safe and sound...I was about to call Rivya... asking them where you are," Aruna replied.

"Anyways...where were you?" Aruna asked.

"Well... grandma...I read online....that great journalist...great creativity from the surroundings....so I went to see if they were saying the truth...or maybe breaking our legs...turns out it's true," Anika explained.

"Okay...I'll go and heat your food....what does your generation....say...yes BRB," Aruna replied about to leave...when Anika requested for a hug....she went and hugged her.

Then she broke the hug.

"Dear....are you sure your okay?" Aruna asked.

"Yes... grandma... don't worry too much....I just needed a hug," Anika replied.

"If you say so...but I still instinct...if there is something...you want to confide...in me...my doors are open and so are my ears...to listen," Aruna replied.

"Yes... grandma...but am fine... really," Anika replied.

Aruna knew there was no use arguing with her....as Anika although she was bubbly...was reserved and conserved...never liked sharing her problems with others...as she thought it was a burden.

Aruna went to warm up food for her and herself.

She later brought to the table and ate.....while in the table...she noticed Anika was lost...she wasn't herself...but she kept mum...until Anika wanted to share and talk about it....if she was ready that is.

After eating they went to bed.
