Pragya was sitting in her cabin with multiples questions in her mind.

Pragya's pov: Something is fishy. His behavior and yesterday's incident, everything is suspicious. Yesterday, I remembered only coming home. After that, everything is blank. What is wrong? What is he planning?

Pragya came out of her thought when she heard the door knock sound.

Pragya: Come in.

Pragya said in a stern voice. Bulbul entered the room.

Bulbul: Ma'am about today's party, Mr. Malhothra has requested you to come along with your...

Bulbul paused in hesitation.

Pragya: Along with mine?

Bulbul: Husband.

Bulbul completed, whereas Pragya gave a stern look.

Pragya: Did he really requested it? Or...

Bulbul: I swear ma'am. He only requested you to come along with your husband. His p.a called me and informed me about it.

Pragya started at Bulbul for some time.

Pragya: Ok. Go.

Bulbul nodded and went from there. Pragya signed and took her mobile and dialed Abhi's number.

Abhi, who was sitting in the coffee shop, heard his phone ringing. His lips curved to a smile, seeing Pragya's number.

Abhi: Hello

Pragya: It's me.

Abhi: I know. What's the matter?

Abhi said in a stern tone, whereas Pragya took a deep breath and told him.

Pragya: Get ready. Today evening we are going to a party.

Abhi: So. You go, why I have to get ready.

Pragya: You are also coming.

Abhi: Is it an order or a request?

Abhi asked with a naughty smile, whereas Pragya gets irritated.

Abhi: Look, if it's an order, sorry not accepted. If it is a request, then let me consider it.

Pragya cooled herself and continued...

Pragya: It's a request. Come to the party.

Abhi: What about that precious word? I didn't hear it.

Gritting her teeth, Pragya left a breath and said.

Pragya: PLEASE COME TO THE PARTY.

Pragya said in a stern tone.

Abhi: Will anyone request like this? Ask properly. Come on, once more.

Pragya prepared herself and said in a soft tone.

Pragya: Please, come with me to the party. Please.

Pragya asked, lovingly, making Abhi fall for it.

Abhi: How sweet? Your voice feels like honey passing through my ears.

Pragya's lips curved to a blush. Hearing his complement.

Abhi: Request accepted. Ok?

Pragya: Ok.

Abhi: Bye...

Abhi hung the call, whereas Pragya smiled, thinking about him.

At Evening

Abhi got ready, wearing a grey coat suit, and came down to the hall. He looked towards their room and found no trace of Pragya coming.

Abhi's pov: It's been two hours since she has started to get ready. What would these girls do in that makeup room?

Abhi signed and sat on the sofa. After a few minutes, Pragya came to the hall, wearing a black gown, looking like a diva. Abhi was dumbstruck, looking at her, who smiled at him. She came towards him, whereas Abhi got up from the sofa with a mesmerizing look.

Pragya: Why are you looking at me like this?

Abhi: You are looking like an angel in black color.

Pragya gave a blushy smile, hearing Abhi's complement.

Pragya: Shall we go?

Abhi: Ya, why not?

Abhi romantically offered his hand. Pragya chuckled and held his hand happily.

In The Party

Jai and Preethi came together to the party. Jai was speaking with his colleagues, whereas Preethi was standing there uncomfortably. Her uncomfortably changed into jealousy, seeing Abhi and Pragya coming to the party with happy faces.

Abhi: What is the reason for this sudden beauty?

Pragya turned towards Abhi, hearing him.

Pragya: I'm the great Pragya Arora, and I'm here for a business meeting. I should look beautiful, na.

Abhi chuckled.

Pragya frowning: Why are you laughing?

Abhi: Nothing.

Both went inside, whereas Pragya keeps on looking at Abhi with a suspicious look. Her reaction changed, looking at Preethi, along with Jai. Preethi was looking at both Abhi and Pragya with a blank face, whereas Abhi gave an ignorant look.

Pragya: Jai?

Jai: Ms. Arora, what a surprise?

Jai said, offering his hand for a handshake.

Pragya: It's a pleasure to meet you.

Pragya said, looking at Preethi.

Jai: For me too. And this is my wife, Preethi.

Jai said, wrapping his hand around Preethi's shoulder. Preethi was looking at Abhi, longingly, who didn't even care about her.

Pragya: And this is my husband, Abhishek Mehra.

Pragya said, holding Abhi's hand.

Jai: Oh! I don't know that you got married.

Pragya: It happened suddenly, so I was not able to inform anyone.

The way Pragya held Abhi's hand itself made him understand her possessiveness. He smiled inwardly, thinking about it. Preethi felt hurt, seeing Abhi's behavior.

Pragya: Shall we go?

Abhi: Sure.

While going inside...

Pragya: What's your problem? What is going on in your head?

Pragya asked frowning.

Abhi: Matlab?

Pragya: Something is wrong. You have changed suddenly. You are speaking well with me, but you are totally ignoring her?

Abhi: Who?

Pragya: Don't ask as if you don't know. I'm watching everything. What's the matter?

Abhi stared at Pragya for some time, who was looking at him curiously.

Abhi: What do you want to know?

Pragya: Why you ignored her?

Abhi: Because she doesn't matter to me now.

Pragya was taken aback hearing his answer. She knows that Abhi loved Preethi truly and now he is saying that she doesn't matter to him.

Pragya: What about me?

Abhi started to come closer to Pragya, whereas she started to move back. At a point in time, Pragya's back hits the wall, whereas Abhi kept both his hands on both sides, blocking her. Pragya started to breathe heavier, seeing him closer to her, and she was not able to understand what he is trying to do.

Pragya: What are you doing?

Abhi: You matter to me a lot.

Pragya was dumbstruck, hearing.

Abhi: Everything about you matters to me a lot. You are important to me a lot.

Pragya was blinking, whereas Abhi cupped her face.

Abhi: Don't strain your little brain. Everything will be fine.

Abhi said, placing a kiss on her forehead. Pragya has never expected that Abhi would kiss her.

Abhi: Shall we go?

Pragya nodded still in shocking reaction, whereas Abhi held her hand and took her inside.

Pragya was speaking with some of the businessmen, whereas Abhi was standing behind her, with a boring face.

Pragya: If you feel bored, you can go and grab a drink.

Abhi: Are you sure?

Pragya: Yes.

Nodding with a smile, Abhi went towards the bar counter. While he was going, he was stopped by Preethi.

Preethi: I want to talk to you, Abhi.

Abhi: There is nothing to talk about.

Abhi said in a stern voice and continued to walk.

Preethi: Why are you behaving like this, Abhi? What happened to you?

Abhi: Nothing.

Preethi: That Pragya would have done something. She is a bi...

Before Preethi could complete, Abhi roared...

Abhi roared: Don't you dare bad mouth about my wife. You have no rights to do it.

Preethi's eyes were filled with tears, hearing his voice.

Abhi: I'm in a good mood. Don't spoil it. Just leave.

Preethi went from there without saying anything. Abhi sat on the chair and grabbed a glass of wine.

Abhi's pov: "My wife"? Did I say that? I thought of being calm, but when she was about to speak bad about Pragya, I was not able to control my anger.

Abhi said, gulping a glass. He noticed Bulbul approaching him and smiled at her.

Abhi: Hai

Bulbul: What's up? Why are you looking disturbed?

Abhi: Preethi is at this party.

Bulbul: Oh... Did you speak to her?

Abhi: No.

Bulbul: Why?

Abhi: There is nothing to speak with her.

Abhi said with an angry face. His face suddenly became soft, seeing Pragya approaching him.

Pragya: Would you come for a dance with me?

Pragya asked, offering her hand. Abhi smiled and held her hand happily.

Abhi: With pleasure, madam.

Pragya chuckled softly. Both went to the dance floor and started to dance happily. Bulbul, who was looking at them, felt happy.

Bulbul's pov: I was always worried about Pragya's future. But now, I'm feeling relieved. Abhi is there for Pragya. He would take care of her.
