Tales of FATE

Part 2

She posted that letter thinking that it would reach shivaay, But unfortunately, It buried in shivaay's cupboard for the next twelve years. For the last twelve years, He stayed away from everyone in an unknown city. Managing only his business, Nothing else. One fine day, Fate brings him back to his city in the form of investors meet. Her brothers know, He will definitely come to the investors meet, So they presented there to meet his brother after a long time. But they couldn't read any sort of emotions from shivaay when he crossed, He didn't even bother to have a conversation with him. But he smiled at them. 

"How much he could resist, I can see how much he still loves bhabhi, And misses her," Om said to Rudy. 

"I searched for her everywhere but couldn't able to find her... it has been twelve years... " Rudy slipped the words. Om patted his back and Even though they sit together, Shivaay spoke to none of them. 

"How's everyone? Gauri, Radhika, And Rudru, How's bhavya and Dhruv?" Shivaay asked when its finally time to say to goodbye. 

"Everyone fine, Before three weeks we moved into Mumbai again... Everything is going well," Om replied to him. 

"So? How are you?" om asked him, Rudy stayed silent next to om. 

"Fine, I am going to China, within two hours..." - Shivaay said. 

"But they closed the visa, Due to some virus, Corona, I think" - Rudy said. 

"Is it, Khanna?" - He asked his personal secretary.  He surfed the internet and said yes to him. After that, He had to postpone the trip but he wasn't ready to go back to Oberoi mansion with them. But when omru insisted, He left with no options. He went to Oberoi mansion. Down to the memory, The moments he spends with Anika entirely played inside his mind and ached his heart but this time, He didn't shed tears. He stayed silent. 

Everyone was happy to see him after a long time, But he didn't connect to anyone. He moved to his room and surprised to see nothing had changed in these twelve years. He went towards the bed and took the pillow in his hands. And hallucinated her smell and presence, The least thing he could do. Next second, He was laying in the bed in that position. Tears crossed his eyes and reached the bed when he recalled everything. He had no idea When he dozed off. 

"Shivaay, Have coffee!!!!" - Jhanvi came to his side and gave him. He stood up from the bed and had it while passing a quick smile. 

"Thanks" - He said. 

"I know, It's all because of us, And we also knew it's difficult to move on... But twelve years shivaay, It went like a jiffy..." - She said. 

"I am over it... Don't worry! I hope she's happy somewhere..." - Shivaay said and moved towards his cupboard to arrange his clothing over here. When he opened, A group of files dropped down and the letter anika slide near to his toe. He quickly took the letter along with the other document. 

"What's that shivaay?" - Jhanvi asked him. 

"Some old documents, Badi maa" - He said and glanced the document once. 

He finally took the letter and shocked to see anika's name written in the front and it's dated ten years back. His hands started to shiver. His heart beating on his mouth. 

"What happened?" - Jhanvi again asked him. Reading his expression. 

"Letter From Anika... She wrote it before ten years..." - He said in a shivering tone. 

"What?" - She exclaimed in shock. 

He opened the letter and started to read..............................
