"I am telling you swati tum ye theek nhi kar rhi ho..... Use bilkul achha nhi lagega" jahnavi said hesitantly.

"Pftt yaar jahnavi you're too much of a scaredy cat Thikhe?? Trust me this is a good idea" Swati, jahnavi's best friend said.

"Vo bohot hi zyada darr jayega yaar tune uska gussa nhi dekha.... he cares for me" jahnavi said.

"I know, I know he cares for you, tumhe bohot respect karta hai and all right? Lekin pyaar ek alag chiz hai.... Kya usne kabhi tumhe shaadi ke baad touch tak kiya hai? Kya kabhi ily bola hai? Kya usne~~~" swati kept asking jahnavi things which nischay obviously did not do.

"NAHI.... NAHI KARTA YE SAB CHIZE KHUSH?" jahnavi said angrily and bit a chocolate cookie in anger.

Swati was startled by her behaviour. But she managed to stay adamant.

"TO TUM MAR RAHI HO AND YE FINAL HAI SMJHI?" swati said. Jahnavi did an awkward chuckle.

"maine kab mana kiya bhai hum kar rhe hai ye.... Hehe. Bas tu shant hoja" jahnavi said.

Jahnavi started thinking about this thing. Should they do this? Would it be too much?

"hum koi aur prank nhi kar sakte?" jahnavi asked.

"this is a minimalist prank bruh" swati said.

then tears started forming in her eyes as she remembered what happened this morning before she came.

Flashback...

"jahnavi! JAHNAVI!" nischay shouted calling her name. She came at once.

"hanji nischay kya hua?" she was about to speak further but she stopped short when she saw nischay's shirt that had a hole in it because she forgot to take the iron off before she went.

Her eyes widened. She panicked and she slapped herself mentally. Ugh.

"Tumhara dhyan kidhar hai!? Zara nazar nhi rakh sakti thi tum! Jese meri shirt barbad ki vese hi zindagi barbad karke rakhi hai. Pata nhi shaadi hi kyu ki thi tumse" he furiously mumbled while taking out a new shirt from closet and wore it.

"I am soo sorry nischay mai breakfast banane chali gyi thi" she said with tears in her eyes. She was obviously hurt that he acted so coldly.

"Well do you want me to leave?!" Jahnavi asked with a heavy heart.

"Yes yes I do. Please chali jao...." he said fuming in anger and left just like that. She crashed on the floor crying.

Flashback ends...

Her heart ached remembering this morning's incidence. She looked up to see swati already smirking.

"maine call kara hai.... Keep quiet ok?" swati said. Jahnavi nodded.

"hello? who's this?" nischay asked through phone.

"nischay jiju...." swati said building up fake tears and broken voice. Jahnavi did a 'wow you should be a actor' face. Swati showed thumbs-up.

"swati tum?" he asked ensuring...

"nischay jiju something horrible has happened" she said.

"kya hua?" he said uninterested.

".....jahnavi" she said sniffing. He rose up his seat listening her name.

"what happened swati?" nischay asked. He was feeling scared every second.

"meri dost nhi rhi iss duniya mein" swati said. His heart stopped beating for a second.

"everything is NOT a joke swati" he said hoping its a joke or prank.

"its not a joke nischay. Uska car se accident ho gaya tha. She lost too much blood and jab tak hospital leke jate..... We have lost her" swati said cutting the call.

"bro tujhe professional actor aur storymaker banna chahye" jahnavi said. Swati chuckled...

"its my talent" swati said.

On the other side, here;

Nischay was feeling like someone had ripped his heart out of the ribcage.

He then remembered what he said this morning.

"vo sach nahi tha Jahnavi please aa jao mere paas. I didn't mean any of it." he said. He clutched his shirt, tears flowing out his eyes and vision became blurry.

He didn't wanted at all that jahnavi would leave like this. He immediately left to see his wife for the last time at the police station.

Swati opened the door.....

"aap yaha?" she asked innocently.

"Very nice prank swati!" he said burning in anger.

"what are you talking about?" swati asked again.

"Where. Is. My. Wife?" he asked coming inside and going straight upstairs where jahnavi was.

Swati clapped and danced mentally in her mind😂

"prank ho gaya? Khush hona tum?" nischay said pinning jahnavi on the wall. She was scared as well as butterflies arose in her stomach due to proximity.

"I swear nischay ye swati ka idea tha i wasn't involved in it..... Mujhe ye ghatiya prank nhi karna tha I'm sorry" jahnavi spoke.

"you better be pata hai because of this mere kitne important meetings reh gaye!? America se clients aaye the and they went away without making a deal JUST BECAUSE OF YOU" nischay's grip tightened on her arms. Tears started forming in her eyes.

"Stop nischay you're hurting me" she said with broken voice. He noticed it and loosened his grip. Then he just left. She broke down on the floor.

"kya hua did he ki~~~~" swati stopped saying this as she saw jahnavi crying. She asked what happened. And she shared everything with swati.

Jahnavi decided to stay at swati's house that day only. So swati agreed and prepared her a room to sleep.

Jahnavi was now asleep and swati was about to sleep when there was a knock on the door.

She opened to find nischay standing there.

"ab kya karne aaye hai aap? Just go away" swati said trying to close the door but nish held it open.

"mai apni biwi se baat karna chahta hu vo mujhse naaraz hai" he said smiling like nothing happened few hours ago.

He just pushed swati and entered the house without her permission while her mouth was wide opened. He changed his behaviour so quickly.

He went into the bedroom she was sleeping and found her sleeping peacefully.

He smiled and ran his fingers through the hair that had fallen on her face. Moonlight fell and her skin glowed.

She flinched because of sudden touch of someone. But when jahnavi opened her eyes, she was shocked to find nischay staring at her.

"chalo ghar chalo.... You know mujhe tumhare sivah nind nhi aati" he said.

"Nahi nischay. Mai humesha se aapka har kaam bigadte aati rhi hu. I have came in between your life unnecessarily
So I think it's high time we part ways. I cannot bear the pain anymore...." As jahnavi finished, nischay already had tears in his eyes.

"Tumhe pata bhi hai mai kitna Darr Gaya tha ye sunn ke that you are no more in this world?! It seemed as if someone had ripped my heart into pieces.... Mai tumhare bina nhi reh sakta plz forgive me... Ilysm" nischay said holding her hands.

"Well good prank was meant to scare you taki tumhe pata chale how much u love me. Huh moron kitna hurt Kiya tumne mujhe and all I get is a sorry. Well the fact is that ilyt so ab idhar hi so jao coz I'm tired" jahnavi said kissing his forehead and slept.

Meanwhile nish was just blown away by the statement. He just guessed he deserved that only.

Atlast all he could do is smilingly sleep besides his beloved wifey... Cuddling her and drifting into deep sleep where he dreamt of a angel.

That was her.
