Ha ha, just unexpected update? Coz I wrote drafts this weekend, so enjoy the chappysss... and guys spoiler, we're coming towards the end. Sad ending? Yay/Nay?😙😙

"Ahaan!" Dadi came inside and saw Ishqi who kept quiet. "Tujhse mai itne dino se mana rahi hoon Rhea ko lekar! Aur tu iss tarah!" Ahaan looked at Ishqi who nodded and cut the call.

Dehleez pe mere dil ki
Jo rakhe hain tune kadam
Tere naam pe meri zindagi
Likh di mere humdum

"Dadi, mai Rhea se pyaar nahi karta, aapko yeh baat smjh nahi aati!" He said sternly. "Mujhe smjh nahi aati, yeh din dikhane ke liye tujhe paal pos ke bada kiya? Ek baat bhi nahi maan sakta tu?!" Dadi started her emotional drama.

"Bass kijiye dadi, kab tak bhai ko aise blackmail karti rahogi." Kartik came inside and closed the gate. "Dadi, aap khud toh apne baccho ki khushi me khush nahi hui, maine aapki baat maan li hai." Dadi looked at Ahaan offended. "Aapne bola aap Ishqi ko kabhi accept nahi karogi aur bahu nahi maangogi. Yeh shart toh nahi thi ki mai usse baat nahi kar sakta, uske saath nahi reh sakta!"

"Mai yeh hone nahi dungi Ahaan. Mai tujhe aakhri baar bol rahi hoon, ya toh Rhea se shaadi kar..."

"Kya dadi, nahi toh kya?" Ahaan rolled his eyes. "Dadi mai Rhea se shaadi nahi karna chahta, mai pyaar karta hoon Ishqi se, itni si baat aap kyu nahi smjhna chahti."

"Yeh sadakchaap ladki mere ghar ki bahu kabhi nahi banegi! Tujhe meri kasam hai, yaa toh yeh ladki ya mai." Dadi finally played her most easy card. CHOOSE!

Haan seekha maine jeena jeena kaise jeena
Haan seekha maine jeena mere humdum
Na seekha kabhi jeena jeena kaise jeena
Na seekha jeena tere bina humdum

Ahaan sighed, since these days he had been realizing how selfish his dadi was. She could go to any limits to make him stay away from the girl she didn't like. He gave her a dry chuckle while looked at Kartik who was ready to sort this matter today. "Theek hai dadi, mai Ishqi se dubara kabhi baat nahi karunga, lekin ek baat yaad rakhiyega, maine aapko chuna hai. Lekin AAPNE KABHI APNE POTE KO SAMAAJ KE AAGE KABHI NAHI CHUNA!" Ahaan showed dadi his phone where he clicked on the block button of Ishqi's profile. He left the office right there and Kartik looked at Dadi.

Dehleez pe merey dil ki
Jo rakhe hain tune kadam
Tere naam pe meri zindagi
Likh di mere humdum

"Dadi, aaj apne apne pote ko kho diya, yaad rakhiyega!" Kartik remarked and left. Ahaan and Kartik's words kept ringing in her ears. She sat on the chair present there and went into his thoughts.

Ahaan drove towards the hill they had sat after he proposed her at the airport. He kept sitting there, smiling with the memories inside.

He had blocked her, on the phone, but his heart? His mind? His feelings for her? They were too much to block.

Haan sikha maine jeena jeena kaise jeena
Haan sikha maine jeena, mere humdum
Na sikha kabhi jeena jeena kaise jeena
Na sikha jeena tere bina humdum

Ishqi was working but her mind was on him. What was happening there? She was cursing her fate of being there. She should have been with Ahaan. Dadi wouldn't leave a chance against her. She just sighed as the clock clicked 10 and she reached her dorm.

"Masi, aap khaana khaa lijiye, mai khaake aayi hoon." She refused after Masi asked her about food. Masi nodded and caressed her head. "Khyaal rakh." She smiled and Masi went to her room. Ishqi sad down on her bed and opened her phone. DID AHAAN JUST BLOCK HER?

Sacchi si hain yeh taareefein
Dil se jo maine kari hain...

Ishqi had nothing, she can't talk to him as well. Dadi had finally did as she wished. She knew that now that they were away, if she was able to stop the communication, it is her victory.

She couldn't imaging Ahaan marrying Rhea. She didn't want that to happen, why will she? "Ahaan, phone utha lijiye please." She kept dialing.

"Hello... Kartik kaha ho tum? Ahaan kaha hai? AVM theek toh hai? Kya kaha dadi ne? Kya sab theek hai vaha?" She bombarded him with questions.

Sacchi si hain yeh taareefein
Dil se jo maine kari hain...

"Ishqi, Ishqi chup ho jaao. Meri baat toh suno?" Kartik calmed her down. She paused and waited. "Ishqi, bhai office se nikal gaye the dadi ke argument ke baad. Toh vo abhi apne kamre me so rahe hai, maine unhe jaise taise sula diya." He lied as Sonu asked him not to agitate her. "Haash, tum please unka khyaal rakhna, aur dadi ne kaha kya?" She asked and Kartik looked at Sonu who had an dejected expression. "Vo dadi ne unhe tumse door rehne ko kaha, aur kya kehti hai." Kartik said casually.

"Hmm... suno Kartik, kuch din Ahaan ko bolna mujhe phone naa kare, shaayd maamla thanda ho jaaye toh firr hum baat kar lenge."

"Han yeh bilkul sahi idea hai, good Ishqi." Kartik agreed. "Tum apna khyaal rakho." Kartik said and she hummed cutting the call.

Jo tu mila to saji hain
Duniya meri humdum

"Ishqi tumhe tension nahi de sakte, kuch dino ke andar andar sab kuch theek karna hi hoga..." Kartik thought determined. "Mai uss ladki ki khushiya kabhi kamm nahi hone dungi jisne meri life ki saari khushiya mujhe dii!" Sonu kept looking at the phone since it had ended.

"Sonu, kuch karna padega..." Sonu nodded and they started thinking of something.

O aasma mila zameen ko meri
Aadhe aadhe poore hain hum
Tere naam pe meri zindagi
Likh di mere humdum

It had been a week. Ahaan came back that day and since then spoke nothing. Everyone tried to cherish him but all went in vain. His health was deteriorating now.

He skipped meals and usually came back home late. To escape from Dadi's pleadings and words, he was never at home. Early morning meetings was his most used bluff. But everyone in the house knew what his state of mind was.

Dadi was seeing him like that everyday. She was upset but also her ego was too large to melt on this. Kartik had seen the changes in Dadi's aptitude on Ahaan's health. So he decided to act on it.

Haan seekha maine jeena jeena, kaise jeena
Haan seekha maine jeena, mere humdum
Na seekha kabhi jeena jeena kaise jeena
Na seekha jeena tere bina humdum
