18 years Ranveer

15 years Advik and Advay

13 years Shagun

Ranveer is talking to Shagun on the phone. His teeth grit badly because of that, and all his facial veins pop out from his skin. On the other hand, Shagun is crying a lot on the video call; Ranveer is not looking at her side but listening to her crying, and Ranveer's anger is increasing to another level. He bangs hard on the table nearby and roams his hand in his black gel locks. She continues her complaint.

"And those dirty boys hit Advay and Advik very hard. I kept telling them regularly that they should not beat them, but they also pushed me and called me a burden on them."

"Shhhuuu... shhhuuu..."

Ranveer shushes her to calm her down. He understands Shagun's sensitivity to even the slightest loud voice, and having witnessed his brother's beating in front of her, he knows this is too much for her to handle.

"Calm down, princess…"

"They are very bad, Ranveer…."

She says while crying very hard. Hearing her crying voice, Ranveer's heart has broken into thousands of pieces; he closes his eyes tightly to calm himself.

"Kiddo I said stop it... If you keep crying like this, then your health will get worse, which I can not tolerate at all at any cost."

Ranveer informs Shagun with a hint of mild anger, causing her to feel a little nervous. However, she remains unafraid of his voice, knowing he always has her best interests at heart. Shagun knows very well that Ranveer never gets angry with her, but if she makes a mistake, then he does get a little angry in his manner of explaining to her. She immediately wipes her tears with the back of her palm and says softly while suppressing her cry from his ears. She sniffs a little, Ranveer opens his eyes, and says softly.

"Not even a single tear should fall from your eyes anymore, princess…. Got it…"

"Hmmm…"

"You don't need to cry at all. I will try to be there as soon as possible…

Shagun abruptly interrupts him mid-sentence and speaks in an innocent tone.

"But Mumma has said that I should not call you again and again. You have gone there to study, but you always come here on my request."

"Then don't tell her I am coming…"

"But when you come here, everyone will know that you have come here to meet me."

Ranveer, standing at the window of his room, looks down from his building from that window and takes a deep breath and tells her very lovingly.

"Kiddo, you want me to come to see you."

"Ummmm… yes… no… but yes…. it troubles you."

"I know what you want…. So from now on, don't ever tell anyone that I'm coming to see you."

Shagun, unable to comprehend the depth of his words, nods innocently, smiles at him, and speaks loudly.

"Yes, I will not tell anyone… "

"That's like my girl…. Come on, smile, go to your bed, and sleep... Good night, princess… my sweet kiddo."

"Ranveer, don't call me kiddo, nah… I don't like it."

There is a smile on his face after hearing her innocent complaint. He quickly turns around and sits on the chair, with his legs on the bed, sits comfortably while leaning on the chair, and asks Shagun.

"Why …"

"Because I am a big girl now…."

"Not at all. You never grew up. You remain the same innocent little doll I first saw in the crib. The one whom I always have to protect from the evil eyes of this world."

"Means …"

Shagun's innocent mind fails to comprehend his hidden meaning, so he quickly covers himself and speaks.

"Nothing …. Now go to your bed and sleep tight. We will talk tomorrow…. Ok, princess."

"Ok, my prince."

A very wide smile forms on his face. Shagun disconnects the phone; he keeps that phone close to his heart for a while and then kisses a picture of her on his mobile.

"I love you, Jaan…."

Ranveer quickly changes his clothes and leaves his room and immediately runs down the stairs. Raghuveer, who was reading the newspaper sitting in the hall, seeing Ranveer running like this, asks him to be upset.

"What happened…?"

Ranveer, looking for something in the drawer, tells his grandfather without looking at him.

"I want to go to India; it is very important, Dadu."

Raghuveer immediately puts his hand on his eyes and lightly presses there. With a desperate look in his eyes, Raghuveer attempts to explain his point.

"Ranveer, try to understand my point. You know very well that Pratap does not want you to come there at all."

Ranveer stops to find whatever he was looking for in that drawer; he stops and holds the drawer tightly, and without saying a word, he looks towards his grandfather. Raghuveer knows very well what Ranveer's eyes are trying to tell him at this time, but he also knows very well that his son will not like this thing at all. Pratap does not want to let Ranveer and Shagun meet in any case because he knows very well that Ranveer's madness toward Shagun is increasing day by day. Ranveer keeps looking into his grandfather's eyes; in the end, Raghuveer bends down his eyes, then walks away and again goes to the couch to sit silently. Ranveer starts searching again, and soon he finds the bank account diary that his father had hidden and kept here.

He immediately opens the account book and starts seeing the balance information for his account, which makes him laugh very loudly. Raghuveer gets upset seeing him laughing out loud like this; he immediately stands close to him and snatches the account book. After reading the balance information in that account book, Raghuveer looks at Ranveer, who is still laughing. Raghuveer looks at Ranveer very pitifully and proceeds to convince him. But as soon as Ranveer sees that his grandfather is coming closer to explain something to him, he immediately backs off.

"Why does he want to keep me away from my love? What is my fault if I love her?"

Raghuveer does not want any rift between father and son about anything, so he immediately interrupts Ranveer midway and explains to him.

"Ranveer, there is nothing like that. Try to understand him; Pratap loves you very much."

"I know... I know very well, and I can't deny this.... But it is also a fact that he never tried to understand my love for her. Dadu tried to understand… She is everything for me… She... "

Ranveer is unable to explain his point properly, and before that, he quickly goes out with the keys to his bike. Raghuveer continues to gaze towards the door where Ranveer had gone a while ago; he once again glances at the account book, smiles lightly, and speaks.

"There is no use in these things; he knew long ago that you would do anything like this to keep him away from Shagun. You are cutting his allowance…. I don't know about anyone else, but I do know that Ranveer is really in love with Shagun... And as much as Ranveer loves Shagun, I don't think anyone else in this world can love her like him."

Ranveer changes the gear of his bike without moving his sharp eyes from his target and increases its speed even more. The sound of many bikes is echoing behind him, but Ranveer is at the forefront; he does not want to lose this race in any case. As soon as Ranveer reaches the finishing line, applause erupts all around, and everyone starts running towards Ranveer to hug him. After meeting all the people, Ranveer immediately goes to a gang; he had a bet with them to win the race, and after winning this race, he is standing in front of them, looking into their eyes, saying.

"I won …. Give me the money..."

One of the boys comes and puts his hand on Ranveer's shoulder and pats him.

"I like you, dude. You are very sharp and determined... Let's have... "

"I neither feel like talking to you nor am I interested in friendship with you…. I wanted money that you could have given me, but you made a bet that if I win the race with you, you will give me money, too, without any borrowing; that money will be mine. This was the only deal between us; apart from this, there can be no deal between us."

The man is still looking into Ranveer's eyes, and he does not see any fear in them. He immediately takes out a bundle of dollars from his pocket and puts it in Ranveer's hands. Ranveer immediately keeps that money in his pocket and starts coming back towards his bike, but the man stops him by placing his hand on his shoulder. Ranveer initially glances at the man's hand on his shoulder, then slowly shifts his gaze to the smiling man staring back at him. That man says to him.

"I don't know why you need this money, nor will I ask you why you need money... But I have heard that you love someone... So I am giving you free advice. If possible, try to understand my point: you should not love someone so much in life that she becomes your life and takes away your life from you."

Ranveer smiles and looks at the man and slowly takes his hand off his shoulder and puts it down and tells him.

"And I believe that when you love someone, love her so much that you forget everything…. You forget yourself... May your day start with her smile, and your day also end with her sweet words."

"Impressive … very impressive... "

Ranveer turns to his bike, starts it without looking at the man, and leaves immediately.

NEW YORK AIRPORT.

Ranveer immediately gets off his bike and runs inside and heaves a sigh of relief as he sees his friend with a wide smile on his face in front of him. Without any delay, Ranveer immediately runs towards his friend, gives him a tight hug, and expresses his relief.

"Thank you so much, Krishang."

"How do you know that I have arranged your ticket to India, for which you are thanking me?"

Ranveer stands in front of him, takes a bag from his shoulder, and tells him while keeping his bike keys in his hand.

"This smile on your face tells a lot; it tells me from a distance that the work I asked you to do, you have come here after doing all the work…."

He immediately takes out dollars from his pocket and puts them in Krishang's hand and tells him.

"I know very well that you have arranged my ticket with the money your dad sent you for your fee. Take this money and fulfill whatever you need for your full fee, even your rent for your hostel."

"Ranveer, yaar, please…"

"I need to reach my princess as soon as possible, so I don't have the time to stand with you and fight here, buddy. What is the exact time of flight? Should I go inside?"

"No, there is still some time left, so you can stand here comfortably and fight with me."

"But I am not in the mood... I am very happy... I am going to meet my princess after 2 months. I am getting very excited thinking that I will be able to see her in person."

Krishang looks at his face very well, while Ranveer, who was looking here and there with excitement, is waiting for the announcement. In the meanwhile, he feels his friend's sharp eyes on him, and he knows very well that Krishang is very worried about him. He puts a smile on his face to ease his worries and speaks.

"Krishang, It's too late. You should leave now. It is not allowed to come to your hostel late at night."

Krishang ignores Ranveer and immediately asks him to ease himself.

"Why are you doing this? Why don't you think about yourself even once? You know very well that your father does not like that you go to meet her again and again."

"Buddy, please, at least not you... You know very well that staying away from her has become like a punishment for me ….. You know very well that I did not want to keep her away from myself, even for a moment, but still, I am far away from her. Very far away."

"I only worry for you; I am afraid for you that your heart may not be broken."

Ranveer immediately looks into his eyes and says in a very hard voice.

"I will never let my heartbreak, she is mine and will always be mine, for that I am completely sure…. That's it."

Krishang worries for him but still nods in satisfaction.
