Aryan could sense something was majorly wrong, in a few days Imlie had turned from the little kid girl to silent person. And truth be told it was terrifying.

She had stopped fighting him on everything. She stopped listening to Aditya's taunts. She even stopped talking to most of the staff. She would do her assignment and submit before time as well.

He had decided to confront, but even in home, she would just talk monosyllables to him and avoid him as much as possible.

This had continued for few months, Aryan had stopped asking after few tries. If she didn't want to speak to him, then he was more than happy to give her space.

It was nearing the end of her contract when she got a call from the company she had applied in Mumbai, they had included a train ticket and also given her accommodations.

She was totally excited, but she felt like she had no one to share her good news with, the Tripathi's would try to emotionally blackmail her to stay back.

And with the ever growing distance with the Rathore's she couldn't say anything to them. It was during breakfast the next day they realized that Imlie was gone.

Aryan had went to her room and she had kept, the rent, her id card and a letter thanking them for helping her and also asking to not look for her.

Present

After spending some time at the cemetery, Imlie had suggested that she and Piyush should go to the temple, she wanted to keep a small prayer for his mother.

P- You are too good to me..

I- You are too..come on..

They had reached the mandir when she covered herself with her stole and he laughed,

P- Mandir mein chupke ke kyun jaa rahi hain??

Im- My dear bandar..look at those people standing near the stairs with cameras..did you forget you are a celebrity influencer..and that they follow you like flies..to honey.

P- oh ho dear..they are my fans..and I can't disappoint them..so I am going to enjoy this..

Before Imlie could stop him he had went to talk with the press, with them distracted she went towards the temple. She had asked the pandit ji to pray for his mother.

She did the prayer and was doing the pradakshina around the temple when she heard their voices,

N/A- Imlie!!!

Imlie could feel herself becoming nervous, she took deep breath and turned around, Arpita was the first to hug her and then proceeded to slap her slowly,

Arpi- Aise kaun jata hain.. bina bataye..and uss din award show mein bhi tum mili nahi hum se.

N- Saach mein..I angry with you..

Imile could feel herself panicking, when she felt Piyush hand on her back,

P- Hey guys..aap log kaun hain??

Ar- Better question is tum kaun ho..

P- Imlie ka husband..

Ar/N/Arpi- WHAT!!😡🤨😲😲

Im- Hahahaa..saach mein bandar..kya sapne dekh rahe ho..

P- Yaar tu aise bezzati karti rehgi..toh I am not talking to you..

Im- Aacha sorry..Aunty..yeh mere friend aur boss hain Piyush ..

P- Waise sach bataun..toh sara kaam mein karta hun..

Im- You!!😒😑😑

N- Imlie..you come home na..humko bahut baatein karni hain tumse..

Im- Par..

Ar- Aapko log baat kar lena iss se..I am getting late i have to go to office.

Aryan couldn't digest the openness between Imlie and this new guy..he was being cautious he didn't want her to see that she still affected him..so he was being rude on purpose..
