The Universe Conspired For Us To Meet 178 Who cares for my happiness?

They all then proceeded to have dinner except Ronnie who preferred to wait for his wife to return.

Another wave of jealousy hit Virat. All this was too much for him for a single day. He could only kick Ronnie in his mind for all this.

The only person who was ecstatic right now was Sanvi. She felt a pang of hope on seeing the chemistry between Maya and Ronnie Roy. She suddenly felt guilty for ill-treating and hating her best friend Maya just because of her obsession  towards Virat. She had gone a bit too far to possess him, to the extent of even murdering Maya. But luckily nobody, not even Virat knew about it.

She thought inwardly, 'I'm so sorry to have mistaken you Maya. You were and are my best friend. I really have no hatred towards you, except for my love for Virat. But then, it turns out that you've indeed totally forgotten your past love and moved on with another man leaving behind what was rightfully mine. Sooner or later, Virat will surely be my man.'

She subconsciously rubbed her belly, 'Not just because of his baby, but he'll wholeheartedly love me for sure. I'll never ever harm you again Maya. I was blinded by my egoistic obsession for Virat. But not anymore!' Sanvi felt remorseful.

Food indeed has magical powers. It was a long time since they'd eaten Indian food. Slowly with each bite, both Sanvi and Virat forgot everything else and dug in.

Jayne came back wearing her favourite Mickey Mouse t-shirt and pajamas. She let loose her long hair. Her face had a natural glow which emitted a charm that would make her stand out in a crowd.

Virat who had food in his mouth raised his head casually. He saw his Maya walking down oh so gracefully. His heart skipped a beat. He stopped eating.

At the same time, Sanvi caught him looking at Maya. In order to not draw everyone's attention to him, she drew his attention away from Maya by asking him, "Virat, please pass the curry. It tastes so good!"

Virat snapped back immediately and coughed slightly before passing the curry towards Sanvi.

Jayne came and took the seat next to Ronnie. She filled his plate and began feeding him slowly.

Virat didn't know for how long he could take all of this and when he'd explode. He was tamping down his fury with great efforts.

Jayne then looked at Virat and Sanvi, "Virat, my university fest begins tomorrow. I'm performing at the inauguration. Make sure you both are present at six in the evening at our college auditorium."

Sanvi answered, "Sure Ma…. Sorry, sure Jayne… We'll be there…"

Jayne smiled for she knew her friends were familiar by the name Maya and not Jayne

They all chatted for some more time before Virat and Sanvi took leave.

Jayne asked the driver to drop them off. She also told them, "He'll pick you guys tomorrow. Just let him know where and at what time he should pick you," before waving them goodbye.

Jayne returned to the room. She got into bed next to Ronnie as he cuddled her. "Honey, you are tiring yourself out." His heart ached to see her fragile body.

"I'm fine honey! I'll be done after tomorrow. Not a problem. You should stop worrying about me and concentrate on taking care of yourself… You won't be there to see my performance tomorrow. That's so bad. If not for Ms Jessica Parker, I wouldn't be performing tomorrow without you…" She pouted.

He kissed her pouty lips, "It's okay baby! I know you'll give it your best!"

Then she dozed off in Ronnie's arms.

-----

Sanvi and Virat reached their home. They didn't speak a word on their journey back home since the driver was there. They were each lost in their world.

As soon as they reached home, Sanvi was the first to speak out. "Virat! What on earth do you think you're doing?" She began lashing out at him. "Don't forget the fact that she's not Maya Bhat but MRS JAYNE RONNIE ROY!" She made sure to emphasise on her present name.

"Sanvi! Didn't you look at how intimate they were  with each other all the time? My whole body was raging with fury… I still don't know how I managed to sit through the entire dinner." Virat retorted.

"That's so obvious Virat! She is his wife for God's sake. They both have built a life of their own as husband and wife. If you think, you can intervene in their perfect life right now, forget Maya's love, we won't even remain friends with her. We will lose her for life!" Sanvi warned him.

Virat scowled, "So what do you expect me to do now? Stay quiet? Let them live a happy life? What about me? Who cares for my happiness?"

Sanvi blurted out, "Me Virat! Not just me… We both care for your happiness Virat." Sanvi looked down at her belly and caressed it as tears swam down her eyes.
