Lost in his thoughts, vansh stood in an isolated corner, whereas the entire family was busy enjoying the sangeet function
SOMEONE WAS DEFINITELY TRYING TO MESS WITH HIS HEAD
There is no way he believes in ghost and all bullshit
His sweetheart was right infront of his eyes and that was the ultimate reality
The fully lit hall suddenly fell into darkness making the whole hall echoed up with hushed whispers
A spot light fell on the stage and his sweetheart came into view
He was busy admiring her when his eyes fell on a shadow standing near the staircase looking at her with red eyes
He squinted his eyes to take a proper glance at the shadow but failed
Something was definitely wrong
Because being the keen man he is, he didn't fail to notice the dangerous glint that was dancing in the shadow's eyes
A sudden sharp ray of light in his eyes almost blinded him, keeping a hand over his eyes, he followed the beam of sharp light and his eyes widened in horror seeing the chandelier above his sweetheart hanging loose, almost on the verge of falling down
Petrified, he rushed towards her and in nick of time, pushed her away
The chandelier fell on the floor with a loud bang making everyone flinch
Worriedly examining her entire body, he looked for wound marks
Satisfied on not finding any, he hugged her tightly as if his life was dependent on her
Deep and tara rushed towards them and helped riddhima sit up on the sofa
The entire hall was still engulfed in darkness
Maybe that was the reason one failed to notice the shadow that was still looking at riddhima with fire spitting from its eyes
Vansh anger knew no bound now
Vansh's eyes again diverted to the shadow
His eyes widened in horror as a flash of light fell on the shadow revealing its face
Wearing uma rai singhania's lehnga, there stood riddhima smirking at him
Seeing him walk towards her in a daze, she started running from there
Vansh's pace increased in order to catch the imposter but she suddenly vanished as if she never existed
All he could hear was the sound that was reverberating all through the empty corridor
DONT YOU DARE MARRY HER
OR ELSE
I WOULDN'T HESITATE EVEN ONCE BEFORE KILLING HER
YOU ARE ONLY MINE VANSH
YOU BELONG ONLY TO RIDDHIMA
Picking up his sweetheart in his arms, he took her to her room and gently placed her on the bed
Kissing her forehead, his eyes watered
Why
Why does he always have to become the reason of her miseries
Either directly or indirectly
Just why
R: relax its fine
V: NO ITS NOT
SOMEONE IS FREAKING TRYING TO HARM YOU
AND YOU ARE SAYING ITS FINE
LIKE SERIOUSLY
Riddhima held his hand and made him sit infront of her
R: hey
You are overthinking
Thats all
No one is trying to harm me
It must have been mistake of the event organisers
Bhai would teach them a good lesson
V: can i stay in your room tonight
Riddhima looked at him with a naughty smile on her face
R: desperate much
V: it's nothing like that
Iam just worried for your safety
I wont disturb you
But plz
Just tonight
R: alright
Vansh stood up and went to the couch
He kept staring at her lovingly as she followed her night routine and finally laid down in bed to sleep
Scared that the person might try to hurt her again, vansh kept blinking his eyes vigorously trying to shrug the sleep that was slowly filling in his eyes
But eventually fell into a deep slumber
Late at night,
Riddhima flicked her eyes open as she heard anklet sounds
Confused, she sat up and looked towards the sofa where vansh was asleep
Walking out of the room, she felt cold
Very cold
It was as if the mansion was freezing up
A sudden gush of wind hit her face and in an instant her eyes darkened
As if possessed, she started walking towards a specific direction
Climbing up the stairs, she reached the terrace door
A loud creeking sound echoed throughout the mansion as she opened the door and walked outside
The harsh wind pushing her hair over her face but she didn't seem to care or maybe she was soo precisely being controlled that she couldn't do anything
Walking up to the edge, she climbed up and started walking over the borderline
The foot misbalanced and she was about to fall down when someone held her hand and pulled her down in his arms
He was vansh
Sweat beads appeared on his forehead seeing her soo close to death
V: HAVE YOU FREAKING LOST YOUR MIND
WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU DOING
before he could say something else, she fell limp in his arms
Picking her up, vansh realised that she was burning with fever
Walking inside the room, he hurriedly placed her on the bed and covered her with the duvet
Running to the kitchen, he brought a bowl of water
Soaking a piece of cloth in water, he placed it on her head
The whole night went by with vansh trying to get her body temp to normalise
It was when the first ray of sun scattered across the room that riddhima's fever went down a little
Opening her eyes, riddhima saw vansh's face which was drenched with tears
R: what happened??
Vansh looked at her horrified
V: you don't remember??
R: no
The last thing I remember that i fell asleep
And now my head is paining like hell
HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE
IF SHE DIDN'T GO TO THE TERRACE BY HERSELF THEN WHO TOOK HER THERE?
A shiver ran down his spine as he heard someone whisper in his ears
ME
