Jeene Ki Wajah(Completed)

6-All Well That Ends Well

      Annika opened her eyes and looked around. The first thing she noticed was her and Shivaay's big photo frame hanging on the apposite wall. A smile crept on her face and she inhaled sharply.

"Finally I am here where I belong."

     She looked around the whole room, at each n every corner and as her eyes falling on each thing the moment she spent with him at that place started coming in her mind. The small smile was playing on her lips all the time.

"Where is Shivaay?"

     She asked herself as she didn't find him in the room but sighed sadly when she recalled what happened few hours back.

Flashback :-

      They reached to the Mumbai and then to the Oberoi Mansion after 3 hours of traveling. Rudra helped Annika to come out of the car. Annika stepped out from the car and tears formed in her eyes. She missed this place, her house so much. She looked up at the mansion but was not able to see it as some people came running to her with mikes and cameras in their hands. Annika was startled for a moment. But before they came close to her she found Shivaay standing before her, his back visible to her. He called Khanna and his other security guards and asked them to send all reporters out of the mansion gate. All this while Annika was just looking at his back. By his body language and his voice anyone can get that he is not in correct state of mind and health both. She came out of her thoughts when he turned and stood beside her. She looked at him but he was looking at nothing particular.

"Let's go bhabhi."

     Rudra said and they walked towards the main door. There daadi, Pinky, Jhanvi and Gauri were waiting for them with the aarti thali. Once they reached Pinky and daadi did aarti of Annika first and then Shivaay. Pinky made Annika wear one black holy thread in right hand and then asked them to come inside. As soon as she entered all ladies hugged her and then they were about to take her to the hall but Om said Shivaay called doctors and their team is coming so take her to their room. Jhanvi nodded and held Annika's shoulder asking her to come with her. Annika started walking with Jhanvi but stopped at the end of the hall and turned to look at Shivaay. She saw him talking with Pinky and Gauri and Annika heard words,

"Take care of her, I have important work in office so I am going."

     Before pinky says something he left from there and again tears formed in Annika's eyes.

Flashback ends.....

    
      Annika's chain of thoughts broke when she heard door opening sound. For a moment she got scared but then she sighed in relief when she realized she was home now and not at that isolated place. She saw Pinky entering into the room with one tray in her hands.

    Pinky saw her awake and smiled at her. She walked towards Annika, placed that tray on the table and sat beside Annika. Annika tried to get up so Pinky helped her to sit and then placed her hand on Annika's right cheek.

"Kaisi hai meri bacchi?"

     Pinky asked and Annika hugged her and started crying. Pinky was startled for a moment but then she thought Annika is scared till now. So she hugged her back and started stroking her hairs lovingly. After a minute too Annika was crying. So pinky forcefully broke the hug and wiped her tears. Before she asks something,

"I am sorry maa."

      Annika said and Pinky was confused.

"Sorry??"

"Sorry maa. I... I troubled you all. You all were so worried for me right? Because of me you have to face many problems in last 4-5 days. And that too because of my carelessness. I am sorry. I shouldn't have go to office and....."
