"Tu hi dhup tu hi chaya, Tu hi apna tu hi paraya Aur kuch na janu bas itna hi janu Tujhe me rab dikhta hai yara me kya karu~

At office-

One day y/n was going to practice ground for some work when she sees Ishan and Tasha stood on the practice ground, surrounded by their teammates. But they seemed to be in their own little world, oblivious to the others.

Tasha's voice was low and husky as she spoke to Ishan. "You're so much better than this, Ishan. You deserve someone who can match your level."

Ishan's eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched. "What are you talking about, Tasha?"

Tasha's smile was sly. "I'm talking about Y/N. She's not good enough for you, Ishan. She's just a... distraction."

Just then, Y/N walked onto the practice ground, Y/N rounded the corner, and her eyes landed on a sight that made her heart skip a beat.

Ishan and Tasha stood in a secluded alcove, Tasha's hand on Ishan's arm as she spoke in a low, soothing tone. her eyes fixed on Ishan and Tasha. "I'm so sorry about Aditi, Ishan. You deserve so much better than her."

Ishan's expression was guarded, his eyes avoiding Tasha's. "It's fine, Tasha. I'm just...done with it all."

Tasha's voice dripped with false sympathy. "You're strong, Ishan. You'll get through this. And I'm here for you, always."

As Tasha leaned in closer, her voice took on a conspiratorial tone. "Besides, there are others who might be more... understanding of your needs."

Her gaze seemed to bore into Y/N's soul, though she didn't seem to notice her. "Like that digital manager, always lurking in the background. I hear she's quite... devoted to you."

Ishan's jaw clenched, his eyes flashing with a mixture of emotions.

Tasha's smile grew wider, her eyes glinting with malice. "Yes, I think it's time you considered moving on... to someone more suitable."

Y/N felt like she'd been punched in the gut. She couldn't breathe, couldn't move, as Tasha's words hung in the air like a challenge.

As she stood there, frozen, Ishan's eyes met hers, a flicker of recognition before he looked away, his expression unreadable.

Tasha's laughter echoed through the alcove, a cold, mirthless sound. "I think we've discussed enough, don't you, Ishan?"

Ishan nodded curtly, his eyes still avoiding Y/N's.

Y/N finally found her feet, her heart racing as she turned to leave. But Tasha's voice stopped her.

Tasha's smile faltered, and Ishan's eyes met Y/N's, a flash of warning in their depths. "Well, well, well. Look what we have here." Tasha said.

But Y/N just smiled sweetly. "Don't mind me, I just came to watch the show."

And then, she launched into a scathing attack on Tasha, her words biting and sharp. "You're just jealous, Tasha. Jealous that Ishan doesn't want you. Jealous that he's moved on to someone better."

The team watched in awe as Y/N took Tasha down, her words dripping with venom.

And Ishan... Ishan just watched Y/N, a small, soft smile playing on his lips. A smile that said, "My girl."
