6

Both of them leave to their houses thinking about each other.

Time passes by. It's been almost a month since their arrival from Dehradun. Everything was getting back to normal.

Shivika were busy in their works but they used to talk at least once for two days.

One day Anika had an emergency case in the night and she had to attend it. On return her car got troubled. She booked a cab and reached her home. She entered her home and got freshen up. Suddenly there was a power cut in her home. She being a nyctophobic was getting very frightened. She calls Shivaay.

A:Hello Shivaay....... there is.....power cut.... Shivaay come fast.... she starts crying.    

S: Anika hello...... Anika Anika relax. I am coming. And her phone cuts. Shivaay tries calling her but it showed switched off.

Anika runs to get torch and in between her leg slips and she falls down from the stair case. She gets unconscious.

Here Shivaay was getting restless and claiming himself for her state. He took his car keys and rushed to her home breaking all the traffic rules. When he entered her home he saw Anika lying unconscious on the floor. He runs to her and places her head in his lap.

S: Anika wake up. It's me Shivaay. Tume kuch nahi hoga. Wake up Anika.

He calls doctor to Malhotra Mansion. He takes Anika to room and places her on her bed. He mean while calls Omkara and Rudra also as Rudra knows about her condition.

Doctor checks her and gives some medicines to her. Shivaay was sitting next to her holding her hand. Shivaay remembers his promise given to his dad. He decides to talk about it to Om and get to a decision.

Meanwhile Om and Rudra come there hurriedly.

OmRu: How is Anika/didi?

S: She is fine now. Doctor just prescribed some medicines to her.

Slowly Anika gains conscious. She tries to wake up. Shivaay holds her and makes her to sit with bed rest support.

S: How are you feeling now Anika?

A: I am well now.

Rudra comes and hugs her.     

R: I am sorry didi. I was not able to help you. I am not a good brother. He says and cries.

A: Rudra don't blame yourself. Dekho I am fine now. Please ro mat. 

She consoles him. Rudra breaks the hug.

A: Thank you Shivaay!

 S: There is no need to say thanks Anika. It is my responsibility.  And Anika did you have your dinner? 

Anika nods negative. Shivaay says that he will bring dinner for her. He goes outside. Shivaay asks Om to come out.     

O: What happened Shivaay? Are you alright?

Shivaay tells his decision of marrying Anika to Om.

O: Iam very happy for you Shivaay. You have taken right decision. I am with you.But will Anika say yes?

S: I don't know about her response but I had taken a decision that even if she declines the proposal I will always be there for her as a true friend. And if she says yes then I will give her all the happiness. I promise that I will be there for her.

Om smiles at his words and his concern for Anika. 

Shivaay and Om bring dinner for her. She was about to take the food but she was very weak. Shivaay takes the plate from her and feeds her with care. She completes the food.    

Anika: Rudra tum ghar chalo.

R: Nahi didi. I will not leave. I will stay here only.

A:Rudra please try to understand. Bua and phupha will be worried. You have to be with them. I am fine now. I will take medicines and will rest well. Okay! She says making a puppy face.

Rudra knows it is his weakness. 

R: Okay didi. Kuch bhi chahiye toh mujhe call karna main aa jaonga.

Anika nods in positive. He was about to leave when he gets a message from Shivaay to wait outside. He looks at Shivaay and he nods ok.

Shivaay: Anika I have to make a call. I will come in 5min. 

Anika nods yes. He goes outside. Rudra was fiddling with his phone.  

S: Hi Rudra.

Rudy hugs him and says thanks for saving his sisters life. 

S: There is no need to say thanks Rudra. She is my responsibility. I wanted to talk to you about Anika. Is she afraid of darkness?

R: Yes bhaiyya. She is nyctophobic. Aap kya baat karne wale the?

Shivaay tells about the promise they had given to their parents and his decision of marrying Anika.

S: Rudra does Anika love someone? I mean if she loves someone then I will not force her for this marriage. I don't know anything about her in personal. So I wanted to ask you.

R: Anika didi bahot lucky hai jo aap jaise husband usko milne wala hain. And about love she doesn't loves anyone except her parents, family and job. Bhaiyya I think you should ask her for her answer.

He says and leaves. Shivaay thinks on Rudra's request. He decides to ask Anika about it.
