Chapter 97 - 2.49

It don' take much time for Anu to know about Ram and Anuj. Now when Anu lives two lives and her age is nearly equal to sixty, she is no more homophobic. To be honest, she is never homophobic. It just she doesn't understand this much.

Still, it surprises her to some extent. She asks Aditya and Aarav if they know about this. On which they give a positive reply. Anu decided to take a family meeting on this. Anu sends children outside with butler and bodyguards. Anu now decided to talk on his matter. 

"Anu…the thing is" Ram wanted to explain. 

"Dad do you think he is the one? You are not taking this decision because he is helping you in your career or he is helping me?" Anu interrupted him while asking this question. 

"Yes" For this Ram is more than sure. Anuj is someone who looks like a bad guy, but he is just like jack fruit. Tough from outside and sweet from inside. He can see the caring nature of this man, he can see the intelligence and cunningness he has for business. He also thinks about his children, if something happens to him, Anuj will help them. In many aspects, Anuj is a good lover. 

"What about you uncle?" Anu questions.

"I don't understand your question" Anuj replied. 

"I mean, you are sure he is the man you love? you are not taking this decision based on physical appearance or sexual tension?" Anu question. This question surprise all of them. Anu after all a nearly twenty-five-year-old girl. But again, it shows Anuj that this girl cares for him too. 

He is quite ready for accusation or drama, but to his surprise, he gets these words. It shows that this girl thinks of him as her family. To be honest, while raising two boys he also wanted to have a girl, he even thought about adopting a girl, but for a girl, in her teenage year, it is better if they have a woman in their home, so he removes this idea. But now he has his goddaughter. 

"I am not sexually frustrated. I like him" Anuj replied. He feels like he is talking with his mom at this point. 

"Okay, that's good, but I have the condition," Anu said. On which Ram feels stressed. What condition will Anu put on them? Anuj is more relaxed than Ram. As he knows that this girl never creates trouble for them. 

"What is your condition?" Anuj question. 

"My condition is I will marry first with Aarav, and you can marry each other after that, as I don't want to be in incest," Anu said. 

"We are not planning about getting married though" Anuj replied with a chuckle. 

Anu also understands that though as it is quite difficult for them to get accepted in society. Even if her father is not a famous actor, he is still a public figure, he is starting new innings of his life. And talking about Anuj he is already a businessman, an actor, and also now a creative director. 

"Whatever decision you both take I will respect it., Welcome in the family" Anu said. 

"But Anu how if they marry each other, we will incest type of relationship" Aarav can't help but a question. 

"See Anuj is just like your mother, and if my father marries him, then aren't we are brother and sister" Anu enlightens him. Listening to her baseless talking all the family members laugh. Aditya is quite happy seeing everyone happy. 

For the next six months, everyone is busy. Anu shows is getting quite popular and she becomes a hot celebraty soon. But what surprised her fan more is her relationship status. 

She also writes in her bio that she is in a relationship with the most handsome, cute, and best man in the world. At the start, Aarav feels too shy after reading this, his girlfriend praises him too much. But Aarav doesn't know this is just a start.

Anu loves him without boundaries. She cooks for him, she disturbs him often. She gifted him things often. 

She is someone who makes him feel too special. As a businessman, he is already received many gifts, due to his face he also gets many confessions, but the way Anu makes him feel is too different. 

He is now living a very happy life. Children are also happy. So on Anu's birthday, he decided to propose to her for marriage. 

"But I wanted to get married to Anu di," Arnav said. 

"Oh, really baby?" Anu question. 

"Yes, I wanted to be with you all my life and eat the food made by you," Arnav said. On which Anu laugh. 

"If I married to your uncle, then I still make food for you every day" Anu replied. 

"Then didi, we ....where will we live?" Raj questioned. He doesn't want to get separated from Anu and Arnav, and Aarav and all other people. 

"We will live together," Anu said. 

"Yayyy then you can marry uncle" Aranv gives his permission to which Anu laughs happily. 

After one week of this proposal, Anu gets married to Aarav, on their farmhouse, unlike her previous life this time her marriage is too lavish. The ring ceremony is happening after two days of her birthday. The other ceremonies also started to after that. This way in this life Anu celebrates their marriage very happily. Many celebrities and businessmen come to their marriage. 

This marriage creates a headline, not only due to its lavishness but also because after their marriage they donated a large sum for orphan children. Anu decided to use this life to earn maximum points. 

On the night of marriage, Anu suddenly remembers Mahendra. Her boss, Mahendra, and now Aarav, even though they are the same person, they are also quite different.

She remembers how sick and helpless Mahendra is in his last days, She can't help but shade tears. She also remembers her boss's suicide and ended up crying more. 

Aarav when comes to their bedroom after lots of teasing from his friends and uncle, father and father in law greeted with this scene, he doesn't know what make Anu sad. But he wanted to make her forgot about all her grief.

Seeing Aarav coming inside, Anu hugs his waist. And cry as much as she can. She doesn't understand why her boss suffers in his lifetime, but in this lifetime, she will not let anything happen to him. 

"Anu if you are not ready for our marriage, then we will take time" Aarav after a lot of thinking, come to this conclusion. He thinks that Anu must be scared of physical intimacy. He before marriage study about physical relationships, as he doesn't want to lose face in front of Anu. He also read that some girls need time to adjust for it. He is ready to give Anu time, even if he is unwilling. 

"no...." Anu said with a sob, 

"Don't leave me" Anu again said, she is just too scared to again lose him. Aarav doesn't understand the reason, but he promises her that he will not leave her. After comforting her a lot, Anu calms down. 

"I love you.....I love you a lot" Anu said, after calming down. 

"Me too" Aarav replied. He can see Anu is too tired, so he tells her to sleep. Anu is unwilling, but she doesn't have much power, as the previous five days, she is too busy in ceremonies, and now this emotional outbreak. So she ended up sleeping in just two minutes. But still, she holds Aarav in a protective state. 

Aarav looks at this and has a smile on his face. He is also tired so he also decided to sleep. But when he falls asleep, he sees many dreams. In those dreams, he sees a man looking like him is with a girl, then he sees their daily interaction.

Aarav can conclude that they are in love, he also feels that girl quite resembles Anu, but he doesn't understand how. 

He is looking at their cute interaction, but then the picture suddenly changed and he sees that man attempting suicide, then he sees all the things the girl does. He sees her crying, and every time he sees her cry, his heart started to feel suffocated. 

He sees the girl doing crimes and then he sees her in prison.

He sees that girl dying, but that not the end of his nightmare, he sees the girl now change her appearance in some manner, he sees her meeting another man who also looks like him. This time he is sure that this man is not anyone else but himself. 

He sees himself falling in love with Anu, then getting married to her, and again dying. He thinks that this time that girl will live happily ever after his death, but he sees her living mechanically, he sees her doing things for his sake, and then he sees her attempting suicide. 

He again sees that girl who is now Anu. He is not a fool to not understand what happened. He realizes that Anu and the girl are the same people, while he is that man. 

He opens up his eyes, and unknown to him he started to cry.. He cries for his bad luck while also cry because has such a lover but not able to cherish her.
