Chapter 13 - “Behind Locked Doors”

So the story Continue .....

The Mansion – Night

Everyone went to their rooms.

But—

Not Shivansh.

He walked down the silent corridor.

His steps slow.

Controlled.

Then he stopped.

In front of a door.

Locked.

For a moment—

He just stared at it.

Then—

He opened it.

🔐 The Locked Room

The room was dark.

Silent.

He stepped inside.

And turned on the lights.

The moment the lights came on—

The truth revealed itself.

Walls… covered with pictures.

Adya.

Her childhood. Before her parents death .

Her college life.

Even her MBBS days.

Shivansh stood still.

His eyes scanning every picture.

"I've been watching you… for a long time…"

he murmured softly. 🖤

📱 At Adya's Room

Adya was on call.

"I'll come… in two days," she said calmly.

Anu's voice came, worried—

"Adu, we can't take risks."

Ridhima added—

"He's a mafia king… please be careful."

Adya replied softly—

"I know what I'm doing."

Then—

Anu hesitated.

"Adu… dad called."

A pause.

"He wants us to come home…"

Another pause.

"Permanently."

Adya's expression changed slightly.

But her voice stayed calm.

"We'll go… but not now."

🖤 Aarav's Side (Flashback Begins)

Aarav sat alone.

Lost in thought.

That accident…

⚡ Flashback

Hospital corridor.

A girl walked fast—

And suddenly—

They collided.

"I'm so sorry—" she said quickly.

Aarav frowned slightly.

"Can't you see—"

He stopped.

His eyes fixed on her.

Something felt… different.

He softened.

"I'm sorry too."

A faint smirk.

"Aarav Malhotra."

"And you?"

The girl stayed silent.

Before she could answer—

A voice came from behind—

"Ridhi… let's go!"

Ridhima turned.

"Bye… next time, I'll tell you my name."

And she left.

Aarav stood there.

Still.

Frozen.

Oliver walked up.

"What happened, bro?"

Aarav shook his head.

"Nothing…"

But his mind said otherwise.

🌙 Back to Present

At Ridhima's room—

She lay awake.

Her mind replaying that moment.

Aarav.

A faint smile.

Then slowly—

She fell asleep.

🖤 Back to Shivansh

Inside the locked room—

Shivansh's eyes stopped at one picture.

Adya.

Smiling.

Carefree.

Different from now.

His expression darkened.

He whispered slowly—

"So… finally, princess… I found you." 🖤
