🖤 Chapter: "One Roof, Two Hearts" ✨🏠
⏳ Time Skip…
🌸 At Aarav's Side…
The evening was slowly ending.
Everyone was leaving after the family gathering.
Aarav stood near the car while Ridhima was about to leave.
He looked at her and said softly,
"Bye… take care 🙂"
Ridhima smiled lightly.
"Bye… you too."
For a moment—
Neither of them moved.
Just silence.
A calm, soft silence.
Then Ridhima turned and walked away.
But Aarav's eyes followed her—
Until she disappeared inside.
He smiled to himself.
Something had definitely changed.
🌙 At Night…
🏛️ Rathore Mansion…
Dinner was over.
Everyone was sitting together in the living room.
Casual talks.
Family laughter.
Warmth.
Suddenly—
Shivansh's mother smiled and said,
"Adya is really beautiful."
His aunt immediately agreed,
"Yeah… and not just beautiful, she is very graceful too."
Kriti smirked quietly.
Rudra looked down, already trying not to laugh.
Then Shivansh's father looked toward him seriously.
"Shivansh… I have something to say."
Everyone became silent.
He continued,
"Adya is going to Delhi for some work."
Pause.
"And you are also going there."
Another pause.
"So I decided… both of you will stay together there."
Complete silence.
Everyone slowly turned—
Toward Shivansh.
Especially Rudra.
Who was trying very hard not to smile.
For a few seconds—
Shivansh said nothing.
Just calm.
Unreadable.
Then finally—
He replied,
"Okay, dad."
Pause.
"We can live together. I don't have a problem."
Another pause.
"But…"
He looked at his father.
"First, ask her."
Before anyone could say anything—
Behind him—
Rudra whispered with a smirk,
"Yeah bro… like you haven't already lived with her."
Only Shivansh heard it.
He turned slowly.
Coldly.
"Shut up… before I kill you."
Rudra immediately raised both hands.
"Okay bro… peace."
Everyone else stayed confused.
But Kriti and Abhi were already smiling.
Because they understood.
🏠 At Singh Mansion…
At the same time—
Adya was sitting with her father.
Quietly listening.
Her father called softly,
"Princess…"
Adya looked up.
"Yes, dad?"
He smiled warmly.
"You have to go to Delhi for some important work."
She nodded.
"Okay."
Then he added,
"And Shivansh is also going there."
Pause.
"So… I think you both should stay together."
Adya blinked once.
Silent.
Aditya and Ridhima all looked at her.
Waiting.
But Adya simply replied—
Calmly.
"Okay dad… I'll live with him."
This time—
Everyone was shocked.
Especially Ridhima.
Aditya whispered,
"That was too easy…"
Ridhima led slowly.
"Very suspicious."
Adya ignored them completely.
But inside—
Something had moved.
🌸 Later… In Her Room
Adya entered her room.
Closed the door.
Silence.
She sat near the window.
Thinking.
About Shivansh.
Their first meeting.
Their fights.
His protectiveness.
His anger.
His strange understanding.
Everything.
She sighed softly.
"Why does he affect me this much…"
Then she looked outside.
The night sky was quiet.
Slowly—
She smiled.
Very slightly.
And then—
She went to sleep.
🖤 At Shivansh's Room…
He entered his room.
Changed his clothes.
And lay down on the bed.
Hands behind his head.
Eyes on the ceiling.
But his thoughts—
Were somewhere else.
Adya.
Again.
Always.
He remembered her attitude.
Her anger.
Her silence.
Her eyes.
A small smile appeared.
Then he whispered to himself—
"So finally…"
Pause.
"We'll live together in Delhi."
Another pause.
"This gives me a chance…"
His expression turned serious.
"To know your past."
"And…"
A softer pause.
"To know about Aksh."
Silence filled the room.
Then slowly—
He closed his eyes.
And for the first time—
The future felt closer.
🔥 Ending Line
"Sometimes destiny doesn't ask permission…
It simply puts two people under one roof." 🖤✨
