Happy Reading!

Arohi's POV:

Today is the day! Today my designs will be on the stage, in front of everyone. My biggest dream is going to come true.

I wish my family was here to witness this. Without them this feels empty. I want their blessings and support. I want his support.

The models are getting ready and I am cross-checking the dresses. I want this to be perfect.

Abhir Abhira are coming with Caroline and her family. At least I have them to cheer me up.

The fashion show is happening at Fashion Week Venue. It is a very beautiful studio and I am in love with this place.

"Everything good babe"

"Yeah Jules. Did you check with the stage?"

"I did. Relax it's going tO be good"

"I want it to be perfect"

"Of course it will be perfect. You did you best" she squeezed my hand and I smiled.

"Arohi. The boss is calling you" Leia said.

"Wh-what? Now?" I frown why does he wants to meet me now when the show will be starting in an hour.

"Yeah. You go I will handle here" I nod and go to the cabin of my boss, William Brown.

When I enter there is no one. I look around but he is not here. Seriously he called me here just to vanish?

"William?" I call but no answer.

I was about to leave when I felt arms wrap around my waist. Before I could react, the smell of a very familiar cologne hits my nose making me freeze. My eyes widen and my breath hitches.

It can't be happening. He can't be here. He can't find me. My heart beats so loudly that I can bet he can hear it.

He hugs me tightly from behind, his face on the crook of my neck and I can feel a tear running down his eye.

"I missed you so fucking much baby" he whispered. His voice barely audible. A shuddered breath leaves my mouth.

I gulped and turn around. I can feel my whole body shivering. I look up at him. His eyes softens looking at me and tears threaten to leave my eyes.

He cups my face and caress it lightly. His hands are shaky.  It's as if he can't believe I am real.

"I missed you. I missed you so much Aru" he joins our foreheads.

I look up and his eyes give away his pain. His eyes, the same same captivating orbs that I can't bring myself to look away. I start to melt in his arms but then the reality hits me hard. I look away. My heart breaks as I try to move back.

"I-I ne-need to g-go"

"I am not letting you go" his hold on me tightens.

"Lea-leave me"

"No" his words are firm, just like his hold.

I can't be here with him. I shouldn't be. As much as it hurts, it is wrong. So wrong. We can't be together. He has a new family now. I have nothing to do with him.

Certainly I can't let him find about Abhira & Abhira. He shouldn't know about them.

"Mr. Mehra leave me" my voice is pleading.

"Don't leave me Mrs. Mehra" a tear slips from his eye and my heart breaks.

"I am not your wife anymore" my heart breaks saying this.

"You wish" he grabs my neck from behind and says in a dangerously low tone "You are and you always will be MRS. ABHISHEK MEHRA"

"Just leave me" I wriggle to get out of his hold but he refuses to leave me.

"Never baby never" he caress my neck making me shiver.

There is a knock on the door and I look at him and plead with my eyes. He closes his eyes and then move back.

The door opens a second later reveling William. Thank god!

"Oh so you guys already met" he smile "Arohi this is Mr. Abhishek Mehra, our chief guest for today. And Mr. Mehra this is Arohi, the designer of today's show"

His eyes tell me how much proud he is of me. He looks at me as if nothing changed, but I know better. Nothing is same. The betrayal still hurts like a bitch.

"I should go and check the arrangements"

"Sure" William says.

I look at him one last time and run directly to the washroom. Tears are flowing from my eyes like a waterfall.

Whatever happened 4 years back is in front of my eyes like a movie. My heart feels so heavy that I almost have a panic attack.

Abhishek's POV:

She left again. William starts talking but nothing registers in my mind.

After seeing her at the club, I told the detective to search her. In no time I got to know where she worked.

I paid William twice the amount to be the chief guest of to day's show just to meet her. I can even buy this whole company to get her.

After sometime William takes me to the studio where the show will take place.

I sit on my seat. I can't wait to see my wife's work. I hope our families could be here to see her hardwork. They will be so proud of her.

I look around only to see two familiar figures. What are they doing here?

I go towards them "Abhir Abhira?"

"Helo" they both said excitedly in unison making me chuckle.

I crouch down to their level and they hug me immediately. I smile and hug them back tightly. I feel complete hugging them.

"Kids let's go. Mumma is waiting for you" a blond girl said. They both nodded and bid me bye.

I go back to my seat and the show started in sometime.

I looked around for the kids during the show and found them clapping so innocently making me smile. I clicked their picture and they look so adorable.

As the show finishes I am awestruck with the designs. I can tell just by looking at the designs that these are made by my wife. The colours and designs are just her style. I am so proud of her.

At the end she came on the runway walking like the queen she is. I even took clicked her pictures. Our eyes met and I smiled looking at her, but she just looked away and smiled at the rest.

I felt bad but it's okay. I will get her back. Her eyes clearly speaks truth better than her. They tell me that she still belongs to me.

She smiled widely at someone. I frown and followed her sight only to see her looking at Abhira & Abhira. They both give her flying kisses. Before I could think about it, everyone started clapping. I also clapped and smiled.

It's been more than 45 minutes since the show ended, and I am waiting for her to come out. She can't escape me and the reality forever.

I need to clear all the misunderstandings without any delay. But where is she?

I turn only to bump into her. This girl. I look at her face only to frown. Tears are streaming down and her eyes are scared.

"Baby what happened? Why are you crying tell me" I cup her face and she started crying. I hugged her immediately caressing her back.

"Aru tell me, you are scaring me"

"I can't find them Abhi" she sobbed clutching my shirt.

"Whom baby"

"The kids"
