Study.
"Grandma how is my mom?", Sunny questioned anxiously.
"She is fine...don't worry, she is stronger than you think.", Jane replied.
'I'm sure she will be able to overcome the past, and I'm sure she'll stop hurting herself...I just wish your father will succeed in winning her heart and love her.', She thought to herself staring at the little one.
"Sunny promise me something.", She spoke as she thought of the matter earlier.
"Hmm...Grandma.", He obeyed her.
"Promise me you won't enquire or dig any further into FOR YOU.", She asked.
"But why? My guess is correct right, She is crying like this because of that someone from FOR YOU right?", He questioned.
"Aarav...I'm not gonna lie to you...because you are mature for your age like Aditi, Just promise me...let's give your mom some time to figure out everything. We are not her and it's her...only her who has the right to make decisions for her future, past or present. She said she will fight for herself, so promise me you won't meddle in the middle or say it to anyone...not even to Aunt Aditi.", She requested and ordered him.
Sunny remained silent for a while...his little brain seems to think a little too much.
"I...I promise but if I see my mom cry again, then I won't sit idle...even though I'm small, I'm sure I can fire a gun.", He said.
"You...Did Aditi thought you how to operate the gun too?", She questioned in shock.
"Shhh...Don't shout too loud, I know many more things too. Aunt Aditi also was extraordinary when she was a child...so she wanted me to be the same too, so she thought me everything she knew. But mom doesn't know these...keep it a secret grandma.", He requested.
"What's going on...what are you two secret whispering about?", Wendy walked in as she smiled at the Elder and child.
"I'm praising your beauty mommy...", Sunny warmly smiled at her.
"Hmm...it's worth to here, come on tell me what did you praise about me?", She kneeled as he patted Sunny's head.
"I...I said my mommy is a beauty with no brains.", He said as he slipped and ran away.
"Sunny...you...you come here today I'll pull your brain out too.", She ran after him.
"Don't worry mommy...with your speed and your skinny figure you will never be able to catch me.", He smiled as he teased her.
"You are dead today...", She ran after him.
Jane smiled at the Mom and son...'If only Young Master Karan was here too', she wondered.
FOR YOU.
"Boss...we investigated the number but...the phone was switched off right away and we couldn't track where it is now, but the signals when the call came were from this building.", Drake spoke.
"You mean...that person was in our building when she called me?", He questionned.
"Yes Boss.", He answered.
"You may leave.", Karan spoke.
The door shut with a low sound...Karan stood up from his chair as he walked towards the large glass window. he pulled out a bracelet from his pocket...
'Why? You know me, right? Why didn't you come up...why didn't you walk up to me and hit me and vent all your anger and curse me for causing you so much pain? Why? Why did you leave that day...why did you leave like that before I beg you for forgiveness and take you as my rightful wife? Even though I never knew you...or never saw your face. I'm sure the moment we became together...I fell head over heels for you, even though you curse me and hit me to death I will take it all...please I beg you, come back to me. I still haven't even properly apologized for being a jerk, come back...hmm...please.',
The ringtone of the phone brought him back to the world. He kept the bracelet back into his pocket and answered the phone.
"Hello?", He spoke.
"Cousin...it's me Diya.", The other side spoke.
Karan frowned.
"Why are calling me using the home's landline?", He asked, his voice as cold as always.
"Because you...are not answering if I called you from my phone.", She said as she pouted.
"Then I don't have to waste my breath and explain you...that I don't wanna speak with someone like you right?", He said as he hung up the phone.
"Hello...Hello...you...", Her anger reached peaks.
'Karan wait till I get all the inheritance, the moment I become the heir you will be the first person I'll kick out from the family.', She thought as she walked upstairs.
A café.
"Director, it's been chaotic the moment you left the office...that rookie Aditi was promoted to team HOPE she stole the position you eagerly wanted for many years.", Preetha complained.
"Preetha...watch your words, Anything I wanted to be mine...will only be mine. No matter who tries to take them away will just end up with nothing but regret.", Priya sipped her coffee as she spoke.
"I know Director...you are a perfect woman I have ever seen, that idiot Aditi is just foolish to wish for the sky even when she is not worth of earth.", Preetha spoke.
"Don't worry, I will deal with her. You've suffered while I'm not here, here take this money and lie low for some time...I will find a job for you and help you become stable again.", She spoke.
"Thank you, Director, If not for you... the police would have haunted me, thank you...I will always remember your kindness.", She spoke as she was overwhelmed by Priya's actions.
"I'm the cousin of Karan, who would dare to mess with me...I would also like to see who that rookie is.", She gave a wicked smile.
'Aditi...just wait for your sad ending.', Preetha thought.
Just then Priya's phone rang.
"Hello.", Priya answered the call.
"Priya...do you know that Anan is married.", Diya from the other side spoke.
"What?", The cup in her hand broke into pieces as it touched the ground.
"I don't know who dared to marry him...she must be eagerly waiting for me to kill her.", Diya gritted her teeth and spoke.
"Is it real?", She questioned again. She saw Preetha staring at her so she walked away from the table as she spoke.
"Yes. What the hell you've been doing, why don't you know this?", She questioned.
"I'll call you later.", She hung up the phone.
She stared at the rays that fell on her...she took the vase behind her and smashed it onto the floor.
'Diya...I'm only treating you good because you can still live in that Vastav's mansion even your mom is adopted, Even though I'm a far relative of Vastav's...I know how hard I tried to enter the organization...As for Anan, he can only belong to me...No matter what, If I want something then it should belong to me.', She thought.
Preetha started at the angered Priya and wondered what made her so angry...but she was sure someone is gonna have a bad time. she knew how vicious Priya can be...from her knowledge, Priya has someone backing her...if not how could she achieve so many projects and become a director at such a young age.
The secretary of Priya walked towards her.
"Director today is the party gala for the internal companies of MEDIA SCORE. It is said that Boss will be attending with the new member of HOPE team.", The assistant of Priya spoke.
'It's no wonder, HOPE represents the company so...and that's the reason I wanted that position so badly...but isn't he married? or is it just a false message or is there something more....?', She wondered.
"I got it...start the car, I wanna go to FOR YOU store and pick a gown for the evening.", She said as she walked out of the café.
