Chapter Eighteen : Beautiful Now And Ugly Tomorrow

Aditya and Nisha were relieved because Adhya had understood their situation and currently, all of them were having breakfast in Aditya's house. He watched as Anand, Ambika and Anjali spoke about different things, laughing their hearts out and Adhya was checking her mobile while having her breakfast - a thing which she was used to. Finally, his hazel eyes landed on Nisha's gloomy face; instead of having her food, she was fidgeting with it. Aditya sighed, looking away.

Nisha couldn't help but feel bad about the way Aditya had been treating her post Adhya's return. He didn't trust her even a bit and Nisha couldn't expect much as she herself didn't have any proofs which declared that she was innocent; yet, when Aditya gazed at her with his accusing eyes, she couldn't help but feel dejected and let down. She knew she shouldn't give up this easily but she wasn't able to find a way either.

She sighed, picking up her glass and gulped down the orange juice in it. She ran her index finger in her plate still lost in her thoughts. There has to be a damn way. She thought to herself when suddenly, she jolted up as she realised how dumb she had been all the way; she hadn't checked her last account activity.

She immediately shot up from her place, grabbing the attention of all others present. "What happened, Nisha?" Anjali questioned, looking at her confused. "I just remembered I have an important work to do, I should get going." Nisha replied as she immediately walked to the kitchen with her plate and glass; there wasn't any time to waste.

She quickly walked out of the kitchen. After washing her used dishes and bowed at them slightly. She then climbed up to their bedroom as she got out her laptop which she recieved as a gift from Shaan, two years ago. She immediately logged into her account and scrolled to the bottom of the page to find last account activity. She then clicked on details. She found the recent Gmail access information listed.

She checked the information dated on Saturday - the day she was accused of creating fake pictures of Adhya-Karthikeya - morning and someone logged into her account from a foreign device. She quickly got a notepad and noted down the information - . . . accessed at 10.25 am, Saturday, 2018. She then went back to check the sent mails and noted down the details of the e-mail that was sent from her account to Karthikeya - . . . sent at 11.16 am, Saturday, 2018. She quickly jumped as she finally found it; she was innocent and she was going to prove it, herself.

She started doing a happy dance singing her all-time favourite Beautiful Now (Dirty South Remix) by Zedd. "Let's live tonight like fireflies and one by one light up the sky we disappear and pass the crown you're beautiful, you're beautiful, we're beautiful now, we're beautiful now-" Her happy bubble was burst in the middle as she heard Aditya's cold tone. "Are you done?" He spoke to which she stopped dancing and placed her hands infront of defensively.
