Annika replied while stuttering

Nikhil said and offered her water & Handkerchief

Shivaay is such an idiot .

But you don't worry I am always here to support you " Nikhil consoled Annika

So now tell me like a good girl

This time do you Want to teach him a lesson

Or you are going to leave this matter

too like always without asking any question to him ? asked Nikhil

Annika drank water .After wiping her face she told him. No, this time I really need answers

of my all questions.

I know he will never going to give me

answers so easily but I have my own ways.

This time I am not going to leave

him without confronting him " replied Annika

So ? What are you going to do with him "?

Asked Nikhil excitedly

Let's first give him a taste of his own medicine.

Ok ! I am with you.

But first let me drive you to the

restaurant bcoz I know you didn't eat anything since morning & I am hungry too " said Nikhil

It's ok Nikhil. I am not hungry " replied Annika

No I am not going to listen you

You are coming with me & it's final "

Said Nikhil and dragged her with him from there.

After sometime When Shivaay returned home he didn't find Annika there. He asked from julie where is Madam ?

Sir I don't know. She didn't come home

Since afternoon " replied Julie

What ? From last five hours she is not at home "

Shivaay asked worriedly

Yes Sir, Madam didn't come home since five hours

Then why didn't inform me " asked Shivaay

Sir Madam went to your office, so I thought she would be with you. That's why I didn't inform you"

Julie replied.

Hearing this Shivaay closed his eyes with distress

He remembered that what happened in his office

When In the Afternoon Annika came there with lunch.

Ok. Now you can leave " Shivaay told Julie while

Julie nodded & left from there.

Shivaay was waiting for Annika from last one hour but She still didn't come. At last he became extremely worried and decided to call her. He called her many times but she didn't receive his calls.

After few minutes, He heard some laughing voices from Outside . When he went to check He found Nikhil there with Annika, Who came to drop Annika home.

Before leaving from there Nikhil hugged Annika warmly which didn't go unnoticed by Shivaay

Seeing them together Anger runs down inside Shivaay.

Shivaay made himself present infront of

them in an angry mood & coughed to get their attention .

When they looked Shivaay they separated

but remained calm. As he did't affect them

Annika said bye to Nikhil & went inside while completely Ignoring Shivaay

Shivaay was stunned with her behaviour

First time she ignored him direct at his face. He never feel dejected like this before.

But after composing himself he

glared Nikhil & asked in angry tone.

What are you doing here ?

Not what which you were doing in

your cabin it the morning " Nikhil taunted him

That's none of your business " Shivaay replied rudely.

So I can also say that why are you

asking about my presence here, It's also none of your business " Nikhil snapped him.

This is my business & Stay away from my wife "

Shivaay warned him.

Really ! I mean from when you Started accepting Annika as your wife ? Nikhil asked mockingly

Nikhil I am warning you last time.

Just keep yourself away from my wife

& our personal matters " Shivaay told him once again.

Oh so finally, you remembered that you have a wife. I am really surprised. I am surely going to ask Neurologist to check the signs of Amnesia in you " Nikhil replied.

What the hell ? Are you gone mad Nikhil ?

Shivaay asked loudly.

Really Shivaay Are you kidding or what ?

Are you for real ? From last six months You didn't

realize once that you have a wife & After returning from New york you also didn't consider her as

your wife. Not a single day.

But today suddenly you are calling

her Your wife due to jealousy.

WoW ! Just WoW ! "

Nikhil  said in a Sacrastic tone.

Get out from here before, I throw you out "

Shivaay said angrily

Jeez Relax cousin. Why are you getting so hyper ?

For your kind information I am already standing outside not inside your home & secondly I am already going from here. So you don't need to remind me about it.

But plz do my little work ,

Please told Annika behalf of me to get ready tomorrow at 8:00 pm. I will wait for her As we are going to dinner. Told her that I'll come here to pick her " Said Nikhil making Shivaay Shocked.

What do you mean ? Why will she go with you ?Are you out of your mind ? Asked Shivaay back to back.

Of course I am absolutely fine. What happened to me ? Nothing. And Why we are going to dinner I think It's not necessary to tell you as It's None of your Business. But as you are asking me and you are my cousin  that's why I am telling you once again that I and " Beautiful"are going for a dinner tomorrow.

Her name is not beautiful. Her name is Annika.

Do you get that ?So just call her Annika. She is not going with you anywhere, Just keep this straight at your mind " Shivaay told him clearly

Sorry Bro. But for me she is My Beautiful &

Tomorrow Indeed We are going together for a dinner. You can't stop us " said Nikhil

One More thing Bro, Infact there is no need you to tell her anything because I will remind her personally.

Nikhil said making Shivaay more angry. He winked towards Shivaay and left from there in a jolly mood.

Where the hell they are going together ?

& How dare he challenged me. One day I am surely going to break his white perfect teeths "

Shivaay thought in his mind.

After Nikhil left from there, Shivaay directly went i

to Annika's room. That time Annika was taking shower, so she stepped out in her bathrobe.

when she came outside. She got surprised to see

Shivaay in her room. Who was sitting at the couch

& was waiting for her.

But after remembering morning incident She shrugged her shoulders & asked in calm & cold voice.

What are you doing in my room at this time ?

Exactly I'm also want to ask you that what were you doing with Nikhil at this time ? Shivaay asked back.

It's none of your business .And If you are done with your questions then you can go from here.

I am feeling really sleepy & I'm not in a mood to talk to you.

Annika said calmly without any feelings

& went to the cupboard to find her night clothes.

Shivaay looked her unbelievably. He was aware that she's hurt that's why she is ignoring him.

but he never thought that She will behave with him rudely. Because she never did this before.

Ignoring her rude behaviour,he said

It's exactly my business.

Annika looked him & asked

can I know How is this your Business Mr Oberoi  ??

Hearing this, Shivaay first remained silent for

sometime. But after few minutes he replied

I mean to say that this is my home not a hotel that you can go & come here anytime With your own will.

you are living here so this is my duty to remind you that I will not tolerate this type of behaviour

in my home.

If you want to live here then you have to follow my rules otherwise you can leave from here wherever you want. I have no problem "

said Shivaay while looking everywhere But not in her eyes.

Ohh ! That's was the reason behind your question.

Ok fine. Now I got it Mr Oberoi. I'll take care of it" said Annika in calm tone in a polite way

After listening him Annika felt disappointed & bad but didn't show him Her vulnerable side.

Ok From now I will be careful about your rules. Don't worry about it Mr. Oberoi.

From last many months I was living in a delusion that this is also my home but thank you for reminding me that this is not my home & I have no right to live here.

Thanks for reminding me once again that I am nothing for you other than a unwanted responsibility .

Now I clearly knew my exact place in your home & your life too.  This is your house Mr. Oberoi you

are right but you don't worry because soon I will leave your life & home. I'll set you free after few days. Till then plz give me sometime for

finding a new place for living .

If Now you are done then please leave from here

because you are invading I in my privacy "

Annika completed her last sentence & closed the door of her room after pushing him out without giving him chance to speak.
