Arjun POV:

It had become a heaving task to act like am not bothered about things around me, changes around me. Just like the one unusual thing which is happening now. On every trip I go, it would be after a day spent well with Anu, Jeej and Adi. Thats not same anymore. As I started rummaging through my already messed wardrobe looking for the specific tee, I was thrown back in memory to the days Anu would pester me on packing things for the trip when Adi and Jeej would be loitering around. She loved doing things for me. Not anymore. Not in this 3 months

There was this gnawing pain deep down letting me know never ever this is going to change. This seclusion around my ones was destined. Everything toppled just because of my anger I had instantly become Arjun from Bachu and buddy. Penthouse remained vacant to the fact that i almost every day stayed out, Anu never had in her to face me so not once stepped in here and Adi, well he preferred to stay with Anu nowadays. He was angry on me but unable to completely cast me out of his life so often he would put in a word that he stayed at Anus just because Kavya spent her most time there.

The one person who was in touch with me was Chand's bua. She still believed that I am the best for her niece and often involved me in her business handover. As per the will Dhores left, half the property was turned to a trust and the other half still remained in Chandinis name.Legal consent from Chandini was taken care by Kavya. Bua was not anymore willing to run their firm, so as she planned there was a major acquisition happened. It was not easy to the fact that Dhores name was talk of town and the shares value was instantly coming down all the interested firm took back astep. Bua could not be happier anymore to the fact that it was taken over by a famous construction firm from South. She still works with them for complete handover on things.

Kavya, she is now inclusive in our family. It was always a loggerhead between me and her. Though there was no hatred from my side she had a ton of them to topple me with. I was taken back when I had got a call from her after few days of Chandini leaving us. It was regarding that felonious creep. To all other outer world and media Pradeep escaped from the clutches of Cops. All his crime was brought in front of people, he was filed as a criminal and tracked in missing report. But only I and Kavya knew the reality and its going to stay with us till grave.

Initial days I was hard on myself ignoring everyone. I then cognized it was other way round when I visited them after few days.  There in the living room of Anus home everyone was huddled in couch and I could clearly listen to my Basantis enthusiastic voice. They were in a video call-Anu,Jeej,Kavya and Adi. As she promised in letter she was in touch with them but I wasnt notified and it hurts. The worst was realizing my presence Anu turned off the video call and tried to act nonchalant. If everyone wants to keep her whereabouts away from me then that is how its gonna work. I can never blame Chandini for not trusting me enough and fighting for our love with me. How can I? She just knew me by days, when my family of years had strongly believed that am going to hurt her again I can never blame her right?  I always wondered why no one made an effort to find where she stayed, I understood the reason by then. Because she was not in touch only with me but with rest others.

It Pained .It Pained too much to be alone and act unaffected. At least am happy that this pain is reserved only for me. Punishment for my deed. It was freaking 3 months from the day she left and everything changed.

Every single thing around me changed except for the ache that topped my heart from the moment I lost her. In a spec of few days she had managed to gather everyone under her control, me inclusive. Life was normal and happy for everyone except me. They all are happy and that is what matters most just like I want them to be. Anu happy with her pregnancy and spending time in NEST, Jeej taking care of Anu. Adi and Kavya are a couple now after he successfully trailed her for 2 months.
