" Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are Up above the world so high Like a diamond in the sky"A 3-year-old baby girl was singing happily sitting on a man's lap whose age wouldn't be more than 30.
The man was painting something on paper and his whole concentration was on the painting. But, he was listening to what's the baby girl was saying.
" Daddy, sing with me, Nah," The baby girl whined with her innocent voice and pouted her lips.
Her father replied affectionately," Neela baby, I will sing with you. Just give daddy some minutes to finish it."
" No, daddy. You have to sing with me now," Neela told her father and started nagging in front of him. She kept nagging until her father agreed with her.
Her father finally gave up in front of his daughter's nagging and said with his defeated voice," Fine. You win."
" Yeayy.....Daddy will sing with me now," Neela said excitedly and her father kissed her chubby cheeks. She also kissed him back.
Her father said to her playfully," I will sing with you. But, first, you have to help me in choosing the colours. Tell me which colour will suit this painting?"
" Umm....let me check......." Neela said cutely putting one index finger inside her mouth and looked at all the colours.
They were busy in their silly talking unknown to the fact that someone was watching them smilingly holding a glass of milk. The person just admired the duo who were busy choosing the colour.
" How is yellow colour?" Neela's father asked Neela.
Neela made a disgusted face and said," Yuck! This colour looks like poop. I don't like it."
A glass breaking sound echoed through the whole room and Neela & her father looked at the person with their startled eyes.
" Niyati," Neela's father said surprisingly looking at the person.
Niyati bent down and said very nervously picking up the shattered glass," Umm...I am sorry, Ranvijay. I was just absent-minded. Neela's talking just reminded me of something. Umm..more precisely someone."
" Are you ok?" Ranvijay asked her worriedly and she just nodded her head in positive.
Neela said to Niyati with her baby voice," Mommy, I don't like milk. Still, you brought it for me."
" Milk is good for your health. That's why I brought it for you, baby," Niyati said affectionately picking up the shattered glasses.
Ranvijay walked towards Niyati and said to her softly," I will tell the maids to clean it. You don't have to bother."
Niyati just smiled at Ranvijay and told Neela," Baby, let's go. It's time for your nap."
Neela didn't fuss and like an obedient kid, she walked towards her mother. Niyati picked her up in her arms very protectively.
" I will meet you after finishing this painting," Ranvijay softly said to Niyati.
Niyati just nodded her head in positive and left the place immediately. She returned to her room and laid down her naughty daughter on the bed. And Very soon, Neela drifted into a deep slumber.
Niyati was patting Neela's head and thinking something deeply. She felt like her heart was becoming heavy and tears started coming out from her eyes.
" Again crying hmm?" Niyati heard Ranvijay's voice and she wiped her tears hurriedly.
She replied forcing a smile on her face," I wasn't crying. Just something went into my eyes."
Ranvijay sighed and sat beside Neela's head. He kissed Neela's forehead very lovingly and Niyati just smiled seeing him.
Then, He looked at Niyati and said," You have to be strong for Neela. You can't be a cry baby anymore."
" I know," Niyati said taking a deep breath and looked at Neela's innocent face.
After that, Niyati and Ranvijay talked for some time. They discussed about Neela and her upbringing. They were very concerned about Neela like every other parents who are concerned for their children.
" Good night. See you tomorrow," Ranvijay said finishing the conversation.
Niyati replied softly," Good night."
Ranvijay is now ready to leave the room when Niyati asked him," Why don't you just get married and settle down?"
" Because I already have a wife," Ranvijay replied chuckling and left the room without glancing back.

Shivansh's pov
I gulped down a glass of drink and asked for another. The bartender looked at me with uncertain eyes. He was surprised to see my alcohol consumption. I chuckled at his face. How can I make him understnad what kind of peace I get while drinking.
I always come to this club and have drinks as much as I want. The alcoholic effect only gives me some peace inside my heart and help me to forget Her for some time.
" Need some refreshment?" I heard a girly voice from behind.
I looked behind and found that a beautiful girl was standing there wearing a cocktail dress which was reaching her mid-thigh. Her big boobs were popping out through her deep v cut neckline dress. I have to admit that she was extremely sexy.
She came forward and directly sat on my lap. She asked me batting her eyelashes seductively," you are looking tired. Do you need refreshment?"
" I need love. Can you give me that? I asked her clutching her chin very tightly.
She replied smiling seductively," of course. I can. I can give you love as much as you want."
" How much you will take for loving me? I asked
She replied touching my cock over my pant," **** for one night."
" Deal. Show me how much you love me," I said letting out a sarcastic smile.
Then, she dragged me towards a VIP room and locked the door after entering.
I was just looking at her with my drunk eyes while she started opening her clothes in a seductive manner. Very soon she got naked showing me her big boobs, wide hip and huge butt.
I kept looking at her with my emotionless drunk eyes. Nothing was working inside me even after seeing her naked.
She came forward and tried to kiss my lips. I turned my face in another direction," Don't you dare to kiss me."
I don't let other woman kiss my lips. I don't like kissing someone else. I have only kissed one person in my life and that's Her.
" What do you want me to do then? She asked softly opening my shirt and licked my chest seductively.
I answered like a robot," Whatever you want."
She continued kissing my neck and moved downwards to my chest. Her hands found my zipper which she pulled down gently. My body shievered feeling her cold hand stroking my manhood. She tried her best to arouse me but as usual my mind was still stuck with the woman who hurt me the most.
Before anything could happen the room's door burst open revealing a familiar figure standing at the door with an annoying look.
That familiar figure entered the room with a pissed off mood. It didn't take much time for me to understand that the person was none other than Ankush. My best friend. The girl tried to go away seeing my friend but I ordered her to not leave me.
" Your father is becoming crazy due to tension for you and here you are," He sounded annoyed.
I sarcastically said looking at my friend," people say we can't buy love. See, I have bought love just in ***."
Saying all these I am going to fell to the floor when Ankush held me tightly. He screamed on my face," You need to stop all this. At least for Satya uncle, you have to control yourself."
" That bitch left me. That whore betrayed me. But, still, I am mourning for her. I am an asshole," I said laughing loudly and felt like darkness engulfing me.
I saw Ankush resting my one arm on his right shoulder and with his other hand, he held me tightly.
" I don't know when you will be able to forget that betrayer," He said and I just lost myself into a deep sleep.
Even in my sleep, I saw that woman's disgusting face. That bitch destroyed me. That woman just destroyed my real self. She is the only reason for my sufferings and I will never forgive her.
Shivansh's povI woke up from my sleep having a severe headache. I discovered myself on my bed covered in my blanket.Last night I drank too much and it's all about the result of too much alcohol. I clearly remembered that Ankush was in the bar. That means he brought me home. Well, it was not just a bar. It was also a high profile brothel.I rubbed my forehead a few times to soothe the pain and looked forward. Before I could see anything properly, someone threw a newspaper on my face." What the fuck!!! I shouted at the person annoyingly who just threw the newspaper on my face.The person snapped at me," Look at the headline and care to explain what's the meaning of all this?"I looked at the newspaper and saw the headline. It's written in bold letters" CEO of SR industries, son of Satya Raichand, Mr Shivansh Raichand was found drunk in a brothel"" This media is becoming a headache for me day by day," I murmured and threw away the newspaper somewhere in the room.I looked at the per
Shivansh's pov[ " Shiv.....Hey.....look at me.....how am I looking?" I heard Niyati calling me. I didn't look at her as I wam very busy doing some work on my laptop. I have an important meeting in few hours." Look at me. Tell me, how am I looking in this saree," She again asked pulling my hands.I shut down the laptop and looked at her with annoyed eyes. Looking at her, I just couldn't control my laughter. I laughed out loud seeing her." Am I looking that bad?" She asked me sadly and looked at her reflection through the mirror.I controlled my laughter," You are looking like a ripe orange. Who had chosen this saree for you?"" Mammi ji(mother in law). So, I am looking bad and you are making fun of me," She replied making a poker face and started opening her jewellery.Oh!! God!! This woman is really something. I was just joking and she took it seriously. She was looking marvellous in this saree." Now, I am looking ugly in your eyes," She whined like a kid and threw away the neckl
The Next DayShivansh's povI am standing in front of the temple of Lord Shiva ( One of the Supreme Gods in Hinduism) and waiting for my mother. It's been hours since she has gone for Puja(worship) and hasn't returned yet.I didn't enter the temple for Puja as I have lost my faith in God 4 years ago. Once I used to be a great devotee of Lord Shiva but now everything is gone.Well, I came to Pune to join as Chairman in 'Singh Enterprise'. My mother came here to worship Lord Shiva. There is a big and famous Shiv temple in Pune and my mother wanted to visit it. That's why I have to bring her with me.I think I should go and check her. I don't know why she is taking so much time.I started climbing the stairs without thinking anything further. It took five minutes for me to climb all the stairs." Ouch!! Blind uncle. Can't you walk seeing properly? All the flowers are now scattered on the floor. How am I going to offer them to God?" I heard a baby voice.I just reached the temple when I b
Niyati's povI reached the office and cursed myself for being late. I was stuck in traffic for almost one hour.Sir told me to reach earlier as the new chairman is joining today. And, here I am. Shit!! I am sure sir is angry as hell." Niyati, Sir is waiting for you in his office room. The new chairman has also come as well," The receptionist informed me while I was passing the reception area.Without wasting any time I almost ran towards Sir's room. Taking a deep breath I knocked at the door." May I come in, Sir?" I asked for permission.I heard Sir's deep voice," Yes, Niyati. Come."" Sir, I am extremely sorry. I was stuck........." I started saying in one go after entering.But I couldn't complete my sentence just looking at the person who was sitting beside Sir. My whole body turned cold just looking at the person.I felt like my body has become paralysed looking at his face because the person is none other than Shivansh Raichand. Is it any kind of dream?Why is he again in my li
The next dayAt OfficeAuthor's p.o.vNiyati entered Shivansh's room holding a file and found him working on his laptop. He was wearing a black suit and looking handsome as usual. She stared at his handsome face for some time and couldn't help but admire him. She admired how he was looking so sincere. " Control yourself, Niyati. Don't fall for him again. Don't forget how he humiliated you and threw you away from his life," Niyati's subconscious reminded her. She cleared her throat to catch Shivansh's attention," Sir, I have brought the records of the new selling products. Kindly have a look."Saying that she forwarded the file towards Shivansh. She gulped down her saliva because of nervousness as Shivansh was looking at her with his scrutinising eyes.She was wearing a simple office casual and looked like a confident woman. He eyed the sindoor(vermillion) in her hair partition and the mangal sutra(nuptial chain) around her neck. He clenched his fist angrily seeing all the symbols of
Shivansh's pov" I love Ranvijay," Those three words again rang inside my head.I threw away the alcohol glass on the floor. The glass shattered into tiny pieces just the way my heart was shattered. I loved her truly giving my all affection to her but still, she chose to betray me. I still remember that day when Ma and Lily showed me Niyati's sex video with that man. I never found out who was that fucker and Niyati always denied that she slept with another person.I didn't want to believe that Niyati could do something like that but when I checked the video, it was real. It wasn't any manipulation nor it was edited. After that day, I lost my trust in women and an immense amount of hate increased inside my heart for Niyati. " Then, why are you jealous?" My subconscious asked me. I replied annoyingly," I don't know. I just can't see her with another man. She is my first love."" You still love her but remember one thing that she has moved on," My subconscious again reminded me and m
The Next DayAuthor's povNiyati was sitting in her cabin checking some files which Shivansh ordered her to check. She was engrossed in her work because she doesn't want Shivansh to taunt her and make the situation worse. She just wants to behave with him casually. Suddenly, she noticed some errors in the files and decided to ask Shivansh about them. She could easily correct them but still, she thought to ask him first. Without thinking anything further she went to Shivansh's office room and knocked there. " May I come in, Sir?" She asked politely but there was no response. She knocked multiple times but still, there was no response. She thought that he might be in his restroom. So, she decided to wait for some time. Minutes passed and there was still no response. Getting bored she decided to enter without knocking further. She twisted the doorknob and entered. Her eyes widened and her mouth hung open seeing the scenery in front of her. She blinked her eyes a few times to under
Niyati's povSitting on my easy chair I tried to relax but failed miserably. My whole mind was occupied by Shiv. His shameless acts kept repeating inside my head making my heart bleed. How can he humiliate me like that? Seeing his behaviour I doubt his love. He never loved me. If he loved me even for once then he wouldn't be doing such shameful acts with another woman in front of me. Tears stung my eyes remembering him but somehow I controlled them. " Just act normal in front of him. You have no connection with him anymore so you shouldn't be bothered by his actions," my subconscious suggested. I sighed. She is right. I shouldn't give so much importance to him. Let him do whatever he wants to do in his life. He is just a closed chapter of mine. Nothing else. " Mommy," I heard Neela calling me. I noticed her standing in front of me with a hairbrush and a rubber bant in her hands. I also noticed her messy hair and sleepy eyes. " Mommy, make two ponytails in my hair. Daddy always b
