I was too late. I left my phone also home. The sun almost was set and the moon was clearly visible. I didn't inform Aadhvik about me coming here. Shit! Shit! I entered inside and the whole house was dark. There wasn't even a brisk of light available . Oh God! What is wrong with this Aadhvik. Why can't he switch on the lights and go sleep. Jackass!

I some how managed to reach the room. I searched for the lights switches. I could sense Aadhvik sleeping there.

"Why can't you switch on the lights and sleep. You know I didn't reach yet." I yelled and turned on the switch. Eh? He wasn't on bed! Where did he go then? I turned around to look for him.

What? Eh? What am I seeing? The photo's which my mom threw outside on my birthday were all neatly framed and hung up there. I don't know but automatically a wide smile popped up on my lips.

"Oii... Do you like it?" Aadhvik whispers on my ears. Now my smile became even more wide. I turned around to look at him.

"Aadhvik you did this for me?" I asked surprisingly.

"Nah! Why will I do it for you Ms.Esha Varnav" he said rolling his tougue.

"Then for whom you did?" I whispered back.

"I did it for my wife." he smiles.

My mouth was hurting because I was smiling so much. I could sense my smile slowly turn into a blush. But I have to put a full stop for all this. I could sense the dead butterflies of him on my head gaining it's life back again. I should not let all this happend.

"Oh I see Sir, but why all of a sudden you planned to suprise your wife? I asked him.

"Tommorow I will tell you about it." He said. I just nodded my head back.

"Plus get ready tommorow. We are going to an important place. So for now let me get back to sleep" he said and got to bed.

Where is he going to take me? I went and looked at all the pictures hung there on the wall. It would have been nice if I stayed young and happy like this.

I turned back to look at him and he already slept. Esha you really have to control your emotions!! I took my phone, slowly opened the door and got outside. I went to the backyard and sat near the swimming pool with my legs inside the water. I have a mixture of thoughts going inside my head.

I pitty Aadhira so much. What she must have gone through! Even after knowing all that he stood by his mom's side even after her death. Aadhira doesn't deserve a brother like him. She deserves a good family and a good life and that's what she have got now. She deserves it all.

And what about me? Even I deserve a good life. I have never done anything wrong to anyone at any point of my life. Then why?

I unlocked my phone and the time was almost twelve thrity midnight. I could call Dua but I don't want to disturb her midnight romance with Zayd. I am pretty much sure Inaaya must have her pregnancy mood swings. She would be either sitting and crying on her baby kicking her or she will be sobbing about her life to Ehan. But as of now I want some consoles from her. That might make me feel better. So I took my phone and dialled her number.

"Hello Esha! I can't. I really can't" she cried.

"It's okay you will be better soon. Carrying twin babies ain't a easy task isn't it." I consoled.

"I know right. Ahhh" she sobbed.

"Listen Inaaya I wanna tell you something" I tried getting into the topic.

"What?"

"I went for shopping and met a women there. She introduced herself as Aadhvik's relative and told about __________________________________________________________________________________________________
Even the newspaper report read the same Inaaya. That was Aadhvik. I know!" I explained everything. Inaaya was thinking deep on the other side of the phone.

"What did you do then?" Inaaya asked suspeciously.

"I gave him alcohol __________________________________________________________________________________________________
Me and Dua went and posted it then" I said clearly everything.

"What is wrong with you Esha? You didn't even ask him anything? Who told you to do all this? You are so gonna regret this!" She started screaming.

"Did I do something wrong?" I asked her expecting her to tell a No as the answer but apprently she replied with a yes.

"You screwed it so much now. Don't ask me anything. I am super pissed at you now Esha. Go deal with your life. Bye!" Inaaya ended the call.

Now an other question popped up on my mind. I remember when Aadhvik saw Aadhira in home that day he more like had a kind of pain seeing her. But during Inaaya's wedding when Varun met Aadhvik, he had no such pain. His eyes was filled with anger and aggression. Even he wasn't interested seeing Ehan. And.... When we found the file back he mentioned about that Siddharth Khanna and he was also involved in that case. He was that Kiran Khanna's son.

Similarly on the terrace Aadhvik said that Betrayal have brought him to where he is now. Who must have betrayed him? There are so many knots tied up with this. Oh god, am I thinking too much or is everything so complicated. My thoughts were stopped by Inaaya's call again. Why is she calling me again?

"Listen Esha. I told Ehan whatever you said me?" She whispered.

"What the hell Inaaya? Why you making it too obvious to everyone?" I yelled.

"You moron, guess what Ehan said. He was like you don't know about the life that Aadhvik went through." Inaaya whispered again.

"What?" I asked to confirm.

"Yeah I guess Ehan knows something about it. I will try to get things from his mouth soon or later. Plus Ruhi blocked me also." She says. Before I could talk further she said, "Ehan is coming. I have to go." and ended the call.

How come eveyone knew about Aadhvik? If Ehan knows then Varun must have also known. And why Ehan and Aadhvik aren't talking. They didn't even talk during Inaaya's wedding then how come Ehan knows about Aadhvik's life.

Zayd, Aadhira, Ehan and Varun everyone knows about Aadhvik's life. I am his..... I am his wife and I.... I am still trying to figure out what is wrong and what happened.

But besides all this, why did Ruhi block me? She was doing all fine when she came home? I don't even know when the postal would reach. I want my mom to know about everything I am going through it his home.

And how did I forget about this. Where is his dad right now? The newspaper report said he became drug addict after his wife's death but now where is he?

I have endless questions running inside my mind. If I try to find answers to each one of them then this life span won't be enough for me. Esha! Stop thinking of all this!!! I got up and went back to the room. He was still sleeping. I couldn't help it but my feet automatically went near him. I just looked at his face. I really don't think he must have over threw his sister for his mom. That too even after knowing what ever his mom did was wrong and a crime to be precise.

Aadhvik what is the secret that you are trying to hide beyond your grey eyes?
