No pics because of bad network!!

Anamika secured a corner table and settled down with Aakash but was extremely confused as to how to tell him the truth while Aakash was desperate to know.

"tell me Anu, ye ring ka kya matlab hai" he questioned again, gazing at her keenly.

"Aakash, gussa maat karna please" she requested, this increases his heartbeat.

"ghuma fira ke baat maat kar tu. Seedha seedha bol kya majra hai" Aakash exclaims, her silence was disturbing him.

Anamika took a deep breath and spoke, "last week he proposed to me and.. And I accepted it" she said, downing her gaze, Aakash was taken back by this. He has asked her not to be around Vineet but she is in a relationship with him now! 

"how could you, meine mana kiya tha tujhe fir bhi aisa kiya tune" Aakash shouted, banging his hand on the table, everyone attention drew towards them 

"Aakash tu chilla kyun raha hai?  problem kya hai tujhe Vineet se haan?" Anamika question, a tinge of anger was audible in her voice. 

"kyun agar main problem na batau toh nahi maanegi meri baat, haan??" he questioned, glaring at her with his fierce eyes. 

Anamika gave him a look, "tu bewajah behes karna chah raha hai aur kuch nahi." she retorted 

Aakash gritted his teeth, "tu uske liye mujh se behes kar rahi hai? Hamari 20 saal ki dosti se jyada tujhe ye kuch dino ke pyar pe bharosha hai??" Aakash anger was on peak and Anamika wasn't getting anything. Why is he getting so hyper? 

"Aakash tamasha maat kar yahan, please. Sab humko hi dekh rahe hai, iss tarah choti si baat pe gussa kyun ho raha hai tu?" Anamika question calming herself, she doesn't want to fight with her best friend without any reason that too in public place. 

But Aakash, his anger was raised by her each and every word," leave it, tujh se baat karna hi bekar hai. Paagal ho gayi hai tu, main kuch kahu tujhe samajh na aa raha" saying so, Aakash left the cafe leaving her alone. Anamika was left bewildered at his act. 

Flashback over... 

As the memories flash in her mind, tears escape from the corner of her eyes. 

Aakash, who was sitting beside her, saw this and rubbed off her tears. Anamika opens her eyes with a jerk when his hand touches her face. She immediately cleans her face as she doesn't want to show her tears to the other three. 

Aakash wrapped his arms around her shoulder, "Ansh mil jaayega" he said, assuring her. Though he knows the reason behind her tears but doesn't want to talk over the same or show sympathy for that thing. He believes that if we can't change some of our past mistakes then it's better to not even think or talk about that because that will only hurt us. 

Anamika just shook her head but said nothing. 

Soon, they arrive at their destination, Mumbai. The other three got down off the chopper but some different kind of feeling was pulling her( Anamika) back, a chill ran down her spine and she stood at the door holding the handle tightly. Aarti signals Aakash, Aakash glances at Anamika and forwarded his hand assuring her that he wouldn't let anything happen this time and she has got his back. 

Anamika glanced at him and then his hand. She knows she can trust him. He is the only one who can and has been supporting her and will always do. Anamika gazed at him again and She held his hand and descended down. 

Siddharth was observing all this and was sure that he can never be there where Aakash stands or where Vineet was! Reason could be anything but she wouldn't give him that place, he doesn't even want that. He wants his own space, he doesn't want to be a replacement person. For that he will have to work hard. 

They settled in the car, which was already waiting for them. The car was hired by Aakash or say called by. Aakash has a branch of his company in Mumbai as well, so he calls up his manager and asks him to arrange a car. 

As they secured their seats, the car ignited and dozed to Aakash's home which is in Bandra. 

Anamika called Ansh's teacher and informed her that she's in Mumbai and wants to meet her but the teacher said that they will meet her tomorrow as they hardly know the routes and also the hotel where they have booked their rooms is a little far from the main city so it wouldn't be safe to travel at this hour. 

"Miss Lily, send me the address of your hotel. Agar aap nahi aa sakti toh main aa rahi hoon" Anamika exclaims and the teacher had to give her address. 

Anamika showed the address to Aakash who asked the driver to change their route. 

... 

Ansh Side.. 

Vineet closed his laptop after finishing his work and kept it on the side table. He glanced at Ansh who was sleeping but a tension line was visible in his head, maybe he's still thinking if he'll be able to join his teachers and mates. 

Vineet caressed his head lightly, he don't know why but he feels a strong connection with the boy, he feels if the boy is his own part. He bent down and place a kiss on his head but when he tried to withdraw his hand Ansh caught it and keep it under his head, 

"maat jao na mumma" he murmured babyishly. 

A smile forms on Vineet's lips and a sweet memory flashes before him.
