Aarush's pov:-

What is happening to me ? Why I felt irritated when that Arjun hugged Dhriti? Why? Why can't I see her with other guys? Even I don't like when Ranveer speak anything about her. Why? Am I falling for her?

"Aarush.....Did you see the news?" Rehaan's voice reached my ears.

"What happened?" I asked him.

"Look." He said and handed over his phone to me.

When I see the news my eyes get widened. Within a small time how does these photos got spread .

"How does this photos got to media?because this incident happened while ago." I said.

"A while ago......How do you know?" Rehaan asked me.

"Because when I gone there and entered her cabin , they were hugging as per in photos." I said.

"What.....did you gone there today? Rehaan asked .

"Yeah....I gone there for giving a file." I said to him .

"You gone there for giving a file.....Tell me truth. Did you do this?.....you are behind this,right?" He asked me.

"No....I am not the one behind this. Believe me....I can't do this.....because she saved my Aashu from a great danger...." I tried to make him understand.

"Okay I believe you....but Dhriti. She will think that you are behind this." He said to me and at the sametime my phone starts to ring.

When I see the name appeared on the phone I got tensed because it is Dhriti Krishna. As Rehaan said she is calling to blame me.

"Hello" I said .

"Yeah...hello Mr.Aarush Malhotra, how are you feeling now after spreading a fake news about me and Arjun." She asked me over phone. How can I make her understand now that I am not behind this. She is in very rage now from her voice I understand that. In this situation whatever I say she will not believe.

"I don't know....." I was saying but she cut off me and said

"Now also you are taking revenge on me ,right? Now you are playing with my life Mr.Aarush Malhotra, not only my life Aju's life also. What do you want? Why are you doing this all?" She asked all thing in one breath. She is getting more frustrated, if I talk to her ,maybe she will again faint. I don't want that so I disconnected the call.

"Why did you disconnected the call?" Rehaan asked me.

"She is already in stress if I talk to her , she will get more frustrated and her health become more worse. That's why cut the call." I said.

"Raghav....come to my cabin....now" I said by calling him in phone.

"What are you going to do now?" Rehaan asked to me but I didn't answered.

"Sir....." it was Raghav.

"Yeah.....Raghav come in." I said to him.

"Sir, what happened ? Anything serious." He asked me.

"Yeah......did you see the news?" I asked him.

"Are you asking about Dhriti Mam." He asked

"Yeah.....Raghav I want to know who leaked this news? And block the news immediately before it spreads more. Do anything want, hack the site....anything, but within 24 hours I want to know who leaked this news and that photos. Do you get me?" I said in my rough voice.

"Yes sir." He said to me and leave the cabin.

I will find who done this.

Here Dhriti is walking to and fro in cabin. She don't know what to do, how to block the media, anything.

"Riti.....please calm down." Ruhi said.

"How....How Ru.....how will I ? Now this news would be spread almost everywhere. I don't understand how can I stop them." Dhriti said with putting hand on head by frustrated.

"Relax.....we will find a way." Arjun said this and his phone ring.

"Muma......it's muma. I think she had read the news ." Arjun said with tension and fear.

"Take it and put on speaker. " Ruhi said.

"Why?" Arjun asked.

"Because we can hear what is she saying." Ruhi said.

Arjun took the phone and put call on speaker.

"Hello muma." Arjun said over phone.

"Hello Aju....what is this all......you and Riti Beta in relationship.....why didn't you share to us? If you both told us earlier we should get you both married before we came here atleast we should have get you both engaged. Why didn't you told us?" Arjun's mother Sheena Arora asked with sad tone.

"What.....so you are not upset with me ....." Aju asked.

"Yeah.....I am upset with you for not informing me that you Riti are in relationship. And at the same I'm very happy that she is going to become my daughter-in-law. " Sheena chuckled by saying this.

"What the hell! Marriage, engagement, daughter-in-law......what is going on here." Dhriti said by irritated but in low voice.

"Muma .....so you are ready to accept her as your daughter-in-law. " Arjun asked. Ruhi's and Dhriti's eyes get widened by his words.

"What the hell Aju! What are you telling? Say her the actual matter." Dhriti said by slapping on his arm.

"Riti Beta......don't worry he said to me everything. We will plan your marriage......" Sheena was saying but Dhriti cut off her and said

"Sheena aunty.....there is nothing between me and Aju . We are just best friends. This news is fake and that photos were not like that I just hug him that's it. " Dhriti said in soft voice.

"So you both are not in relationship. Shit! I think you will become my daughter-in-law and teach him good lessons." Sheena said in sad voice.

"What lessons......oh! Muma you started to talk like a youngsters. I know which lessons you meant. " Arjun said with smrike.

"What......what are you saying?" Sheena asked him with confusion.

"Leave him aunty he always talk like this......useless things." Ruhi said.

"Who said I'm talking about useless thing. I was talking about sex lessons.....muma also mean this lesson,isn't it muma?" Arjun said.

"What's wrong with you Aju." Dhriti asked him slapping lightly on his cheek.

"Shamless" Ruhi said.

"I am disconnecting call. All of you take care especially Riti Beta, you take care okay." Sheena said the call in embarrassed by Aju's words.

"You always don't talk about important matter. Here we both are thinking about how to block the media and their unwanted questions but you are busy in talking with useless thing...." Dhriti said by shaking his head.

"Is sex is a useless thing....." Arjun was saying but Dhriti cut off him and said

"Shut up your mouth.....otherwise I will slap you harder in your face." She said with rage to slap him.

Arjun shut his mouth. Ruhi and Dhriti was thinking to solve the matter.

"I think we have to go a live in online otherwise......it will end up in our marriage. " Arjun said.

"Yeah...you are right Aju. Riti do as Aju said." Ruhi said by putting her hand on Dhriti's shoulder.

"What marriage?" Arjun asked.

"No.....Live ....go on live you fool." Ruhi shouted.

"No...don't need to go on live the paparazzi are already here." Dhriti said

"Let's go ....we can say this news is fake. Come on..." Dhriti said and about to go but Arjun and Ruhi hold her.

"What happened guys?" Dhriti asked.

"If you go now they will eat you Dhriti by asking their questions. So don't go." Ruhi said.

"Yeah...." Aju said.

"If we don't go they will think that this news is real." Dhriti said.

"We can give our statement .....but if we go outside now they will not give us time to say anything. They will cook up the story they want . So for now don't react." Arjun said.

"But...." Dhriti was going to say something suddenly Henry come and say

"Dk....the all news about you get deleted from online. I was trying to do that but suddenly all the photos and news about you got deleted and some sites were deleted. So we can't find in which site this news leaked first."

"Okay....Henry. Anyways try to find out , who clicked the photos ?" Dhriti said.

Henry leave from the cabin.

"You said that Aarush Malhotra clicked our photo. Then why you asked Henry to find about photos." Arjun asked.

"Because Aarush Malhotra didn't click the photos. Because when he entered to our cabin there is only a file in his hand." Dhriti said walking towards her chair.

"Then why did you call him and shouted?" Ruhi asked

"Yeah.....because he is in behind this all. Someone is here who is working for him as a spy . I just want to know who is that." Dhriti said by resting her head back in her swivel chair.

Aarush reached in Malhotra Mansion. Now everyone in the Mansion is talking about Dhriti and Arjun.

"They are looking so good together even that boy cares her so much." Karthika said.

"Haa....Bhabhi they are look like made for each other." Meera said .

"Whoever marry that girl, he will very lucky to have her in his life." Dadu said.

"You are right.....she is a very good girl even though she have no family but her values ,her culture behavior towards elders ....everything is perfect about her. I like that girl very much. If I had seen her early I would make her as my Billu's bride." Dadi said . Aarush is listening to all conversations. When this said this a smile appeared on his face.

"Mom she is a brave and clever girl also.....if she married to our Aarush she make him dance in her fingers and she will control our Aarush. And I want a daughter-in-law who controls our Aarush because sometimes it is hard to control him." Jaidev said with a laugh. Actually Jaidev like Dhriti from the day he met her. But he was afraid of the man who is behind her but on that day Dhriti told that she have no connection with that accident. He understood that his assumptions and fear is baseless.

"Yeah...you are right Jaidev ....sometimes it is hard to control our Aarush. If Dhriti like a girl come to his life , she will teach him good lessons. " Karthika said. By hearing this all a smrike arise in Aarush's lips because he feels good when all are talking him with Dhriti, when he hears his name with Dhriti . But his smile fade when Ayaan said these

"Now no use guys because Dhriti Krishna is not going to become Malhotras daughter-in-law nor Aarush bhai's wife. She is going to become Mrs.Arjun Arora,daughter-in-law of Arora's." When Ayaan said this , Aarush is heated with anger and he get into the hall where everyone is sitting except Aryan because he has gone with Maya for dinner.

"Don't you have any work other than commenting on these gossips and fake news. For this you came early from office. Don't talk about Dhriti and Arjun. It is a fake news.....she is not going to be Mrs. Arjun Arora....she is going to be Mrs.Aa....."He shouted at Ayaan but he didn't complete his words ,he walked towards upstairs.

Everyone is shocked by his behavior because Aarush came from somewhere suddenly , shouted at Ayaan.

"Now what happened here? Why did bhai shouted at me?" Ayaan asked with a expression like he wake from a deep sleep .

"He shouted at you Ayaan Bhai for gossiping Dhriti di. " Aashvi said by shaking him by his shoulder.

"Today onwards I will not gossip about Dhriti Krishna. " Ayaan said .

"But What Bhai was going to say , she is going to be Mrs.Aa what is mean by that?" Ayaan asked

"I think our Aarush is in love." Meera whispered to Karthika .

"Ummm......I also think that he is in love with Dhriti. " Karthika said to Meera and they both chuckled.

Aarush's pov:-

Fuck! What was I going to say ,she is going to be Mrs. Aarush Malhotra. If I had said that infront of everyone that's it...... everyone will go to her house with marriage proposal . Oh...then what will happen ....that grumpy lady will exterminate me. Yeah...dad was right if she marry me she will start to control me and I will be wrapped around her fingers. A small smile arisen in my lips. Only you are the girl who made me smile Dhriti. Yeah....of course I smile but that is only infront of my loved ones but I didn't smiled like this that when I'm alone.....don't know what is happening to me but the only thing now I know is ,a spark....a pure spark I got from you in my 29 years of life.....no girl is influenced me like this. I don't know why my gut feelings says that you are the girl I'm searching for.

Now someone is trying to play with your life as you said to me Dhriti.......at any cost I will find who is that person who leaked fake news about you . From today onwards I will be with you like a shadow because you saved my sister from a great danger. I will find who is playing the game with my name.

I lay down on my bed thinking about Dhriti. I don't know why I can't stop thinking about her, especially her musk scented perfume that was very seductive. I don't know how I controlled myself on that day. Thinking about her slowly sleep started to engulf me.

_________________________________

Here Dhriti is still laying on the couch near her window of the room with a book on her chest ,that is her favorite place in her home. Now she is looking on the moon,dark sky and stars. Moonlight is hitting her face.

Dhriti's pov:-

Why I feel that someone has come to my life to protect me? Even today someone has deleted all news and photos of me from sites and block the news. Who would be that? Is someone is entering to my life as a moon to spread its whole light to my dark life? No.....no....what are you thinking Dhriti? Who will accept you after knowing your past? No one will come to my life to escape me from this darkness. I will escape from this darkness by only my death. This darkness,this pain,this fear......everything leave me only by my death. Why? Why....God ? Why I can't live the life like all other girls? Why you snatched everything from me? What was my mistake in all these? Why did you punish me?

Dhriti's eyes filled with tears slowly it rolled down through her cheeks. She don't know that God has already send her moon to spread the whole light in her dark life.

Slowly the sleep engulfed her....
