Chapter 16 - “You Can Go… But Not Forever”

So the story continues…

🌸 At the Mansion — Morning

The atmosphere was still filled with shock.

But Shivansh—

As if nothing had happened—

Walked to the dining table.

Sat down.

And started eating breakfast.

Calm.

Silent.

Unbothered.

No emotions.

No reaction.

After a few minutes—

He stood up.

And left.

Like nothing mattered.

🌸 At Adya's Side

Kriti rushed toward her, excitement clear on her face.

"Hii di! You know… I study in your college. I'm a huge fan of you… and your group!"

Adya smiled softly.

"Thank you 😊"

Shivangi stepped forward.

"Hii di… can you be my friend?"

Adya looked at her for a second.

Then nodded.

"Okay."

Soon—

Laughter filled the space.

They talked.

Joked.

Connected easily.

But somewhere—

Adya's mind wasn't fully there.

🖤 At Shivansh's Side

Inside his office—

Shivansh sat silently.

His laptop open.

The mansion's security system—

Connected to him.

And on the screen—

Adya.

His eyes stayed fixed on her.

Observing.

Reading.

Understanding.

Knock knock.

"Come in."

His P.A. entered.

"Sir, Mr. Jones is here."

Shivansh closed the laptop.

"Send him in."

⚡ After Some Time

The meeting ended.

Deal done.

Perfect.

But his mind—

Was somewhere else.

🌙 Night — Mansion

The main door opened.

Shivansh entered—

And stopped.

In the living room—

Everyone was sitting together.

Watching Tom and Jerry 😂

Laughing.

Eating junk food.

A rare moment of normalcy.

(Aarav and Abhinav just watching silently 👀)

The moment they saw him—

They froze.

Laughter stopped.

Hands paused mid-air.

Except—

Adya.

She didn't even look at him.

Just continued eating calmly.

Everyone shocked.

Then—

Without raising her eyes—

She spoke.

"Go and change first."

A pause.

"Then come to the dining table."

Another pause.

"I want to talk to you."

Silence.

Everyone looked at her.

Then at him.

🍽 Dinner Scene

After some time—

Shivansh entered the dining hall.

Dinner started.

Silent.

Heavy.

Then—

He spoke.

"What did you want to talk about?"

Adya looked straight into his eyes.

"I'm leaving."

A pause.

"Tomorrow."

Silence.

Shivansh's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Why?"

Adya frowned.

"What do you mean 'why'?"

"It's my house. I'm going."

Shivansh didn't reply immediately.

Just looked at her.

Long.

Deep.

Then—

"Okay."

A pause.

"You can go."

Silence.

Everyone noticed.

The tension.

The unspoken emotions.

But no one said a word.

Dinner ended.

Everyone left.

🌙 Shivansh's Room

He stood near the window.

Moonlight falling across his face.

His voice low—

"Princess…"

A pause.

"This time… you can go."

His eyes darkened.

"But you'll come back."

🌙 Adya's Room

Adya sat quietly.

Lost in thoughts.

Her past.

Her parents.

That locked room.

And him.

After some time—

She picked up her phone.

Call connected.

"Hello, bhai… how are you?"

"I'm fine, doll. And you?"

"I'm good…"

A pause.

Then—

Her voice turned serious.

"But I need to ask you something."

"Hm?"

Adya's eyes sharpened.

"How does Shivansh Rathore know us?"

Silence.

A long pause.

Then—

He spoke.

"He's… the son of your parents' friend."

"And why are you asking?"

🔥 Ending Line

Adya's eyes widened slightly.

"Then…"

"Why does it feel like…"

"He knows more than that…?"
