So the story
Continued....
Flashback Ends…
Shivansh's gaze fell on the picture.
And in that moment… everything came rushing back.
Flashback Begins…
Shivansh was only four years old.
In his tiny arms, he carefully held a baby girl—barely one year old. His eyes sparkled with innocence as he looked at her, as if she was something precious… something only he owned.
A boy stood behind him.
Shivansh smiled softly and asked,
"What's the name of my princess?"
The boy frowned and immediately replied,
"She's not your princess. She's my sister."
Shivansh's grip tightened slightly, his childish possessiveness showing.
"She might be your sister… but she's my princess."
Just then, a man walked in, noticing their little argument.
"What's going on, Shivansh? Aksh?"
Aksh quickly said,
"Nothing, Dad. We were just talking about the doll's name."
Shivansh nodded innocently.
"Yes, Uncle. We are deciding my princess's name."
The man chuckled warmly.
"Oh really? Then what have you decided?"
Shivansh looked down at the baby girl, his expression suddenly serious.
"Adya."
There was a pause.
Then he whispered softly, almost like a promise—
"Shiv ki Adya…"
The man laughed, amused by his words.
"Alright then… her name will be Adya."
A few moments later, they took the baby from his arms.
Shivansh waved happily, leaning forward to place a gentle kiss on her forehead.
"Bye, Princess…"
Time passed.
At the Singh Mansion, everyone was preparing for a trip.
But happiness doesn't always last.
On the way… their rivals attacked.
In that brutal incident, Adya's parents lost their lives.
But before everything faded into darkness—
Adya saw them.
Flashback Ends…
Present – Shivansh's Side
Tears filled Shivansh's eyes.
His chest tightened as memories suffocated him.
Without saying anything, he turned and walked out of the room… not noticing anyone around him.
A single thought echoed in his mind—
She is Adya.
At Adya's Side
Adya sat silently, trying to understand everything.
How did I come here…?
Flashback…
She had gone to the kitchen to fill water.
But on the way, she saw Shivansh entering a locked room.
Curiosity pulled her in.
She followed him quietly.
When she entered the room… her steps froze.
There, on the wall—
Was her picture.
Her childhood picture.
Flashback Ends…
Back in the present, her fingers slowly traced the frame.
Her voice trembled slightly—
"How does he know me…? And why does he call me princess…?"
She paused.
"I should talk to Bhai…"
With that thought, she left the room and went back to hers.
But sleep didn't come easily.
Her mind replayed everything—
Her childhood picture.
Her parents' photo with her.
The ashram memories painted on canvas.
Confusion, pain, and questions swirled inside her.
Eventually, she forced herself to stop thinking… and drifted into sleep.
Time Skips…
Next Morning – Shivansh's Room
Shivansh got ready for an important meeting.
Without wasting time, he stepped out of his room and headed straight toward the dining hall.
Kriti called out,
"Bhai! At least have breakfast first!"
Shivansh shook his head lightly.
"Sorry, bachha… I'm getting late."
He was about to leave—
But his eyes landed on Adya for a brief second.
And then… he turned away.
Just as he was about to step out—
A voice stopped him.
"First eat something…"
He froze.
It was Adya.
There was a brief silence.
Then she added softly—
"Then go wherever you want."
