Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff

Ekansh Chauhan/ML

after presing the bell he waited for the answer from inside
But he got no answer from inside
Ekansh Chauhan/ML

Ekansh Chauhan/ML

One girl was sleeping while she was seating on the floor and her head was on the table. The pepars was all over the room. Her phone was ringing, but she was in her deep sleep

Arjun Chauhan/ Ml's big brother

Arjun Chauhan/ Ml's big brother

THE MAIN DOOR ! Ekansh and Raksh are waiting outside!
Anshika Rathore /FL
* groggily lifts her head, sees the mess around her *
Anshika Rathore /FL
* sighs *
Anshika Rathore /FL
* muttering to herself while fixing her Messy hair *
Great. First impression --- looking like a zombie, house like a war zone. Amazing, Anshika. Truly iconic.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* get-ups and go toward door *
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff

But same time door opened by Anshika
Anshika Rathore /FL

Anshika Rathore /FL
* tieing her hair in bun while looking at them *
Anshika Rathore /FL

Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* whisper to Ekansh* Bhai .....I think we woke up a hibernating bear .
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* ignore him *
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* Looking at her *
Ekansh Chauhan/ML

* little cold*
Anshika Rathore /FL

the step inside , and their eyes winden at the sight --- pepars everywhere , disign scattered, coffee mugs stacked like a tower.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* blinking* you.... Planning to move out or something?
Anshika Rathore /FL
* dryly * no just work load
Anshika Rathore /FL
* casually pushed some papers off the couch*
Anshika Rathore /FL
You can sit if you find space. I'll get coffee.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* walk toward kitchen*
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* looked at the sofa *
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* piched some papers and start observing the disign on it *
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* to himself* this designs are .... professional.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* nudges Ekansh * what's with that look ?
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
Somthing doesn't add up .
Anshika Rathore /FL
Nice to meet you I am Anshika . Sister of Revati * said with smile but concentration on the coffee*
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
Ohh yeah ....!
I am Raksh and he is Ekansh younger brother of Arjun.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* walked toward the hall *
Anshika Rathore /FL
Here. Black coffee. No sugar.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*takes a sip, eyes widening*
Damn. This is strong. You're trying to keep us awake for a week?
Anshika Rathore /FL
*shrugs*
You’ll survive.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* silently sip his coffee , his eyes still occasionally drifting to the designs on The table *
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*calmly* we're leaving for India at 9 pm. My jet is ready.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* nodded*
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* leaning back * we're here early 'cause your place is two hours away from the airport. And we have meeting before the flight, so instead of wasting time, we came to pick you up first.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* raises an eyebrow* make sense.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* put coffee cup down glancing at her *
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
You packed?
Anshika Rathore /FL
* casually* more or less.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* mock horror* more or less ?! Girl, we're flying out in few hours!
Anshika Rathore /FL
* deadpan* I work fast .
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* muttering* this is going to be interesting.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* just staring at Anshika with sharp gaze *
There's something about her that sparks his interest ---clam, composed, yet mysterious.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* stand up stretching slightly*
Anshika Rathore /FL
I'ill be ready in 45 or 40 minutes. Just need to shower
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* Exchange glances with Ekansh slightly taken aback*
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* Exchange glances with raksh slightly taken aback*
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
Wait… you’re going to shower?
Anshika Rathore /FL
Yes? *Raises an eyebrow*
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* leaning forward* umm ... You know we are still here right?
Anshika Rathore /FL
* raising an eyebrow* yeah ?
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* calmly* you're comfortable having shower when two Strangers are in your house?
Anshika Rathore /FL
* questionable look * so what should I exactly feel about this ?
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* chuckled a little*
That’s not the point little girl ! You don’t even know us properly. What if we’re not trustworthy ?
Anshika Rathore /FL
* smirked* Then you should be the ones worrying, not me.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
What ?
Anshika Rathore /FL
*Smirks slightly*
If I wasn’t confident in my safety, I wouldn’t be this calm.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
… Are you secretly hiding a weapon or something?
Anshika Rathore /FL
Who knows? *Walks away, leaving them speechless.*
(Just as she turns to leave, her phone starts ringing. She frowns, seeing the caller ID—her coworker. Before she can decline, the call picks up automatically after the third ring.)
juily / manager in Anshika company
📞"Anshika! Thank God you picked up! We need you for an urgent meeting in an hour. Can you come?"
Anshika Rathore /FL
*closes her eyes for a second, exhaling sharply.*
Anshika Rathore /FL
*muttering* I really need to fix that auto-answer setting…
juily / manager in Anshika company
📞"What?"
Anshika Rathore /FL
*quickly* Nothing. I can’t come. Busy
juily / manager in Anshika company
📞"But—"
Anshika Rathore /FL
*cuts off* Bye.
Anshika Rathore /FL
*She hangs up and sighs*
Meanwhile, Ekansh, who had been observing quietly, now looks at her with mild curiosity
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*grinning* That sounded serious. Secret agent stuff?
Anshika Rathore /FL
* little anoyingly * Yeah .you can say that .
Anshika Rathore /FL
*expressionless*
now you know . I think I should kill you
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*laughs* Okay, now I like her.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*Remains silent, but something about the conversation makes him more intrigued*
(Anshika was about to leave, but just then, her phone rang again. She sighed, already knowing who it was. This time, she had no choice but to answer.)
Anshika Rathore /FL
I swear if this is another— *picks up* Hello?
juily / manager in Anshika company
📞"Anshika, listen, you have to come for this meeting. The client specifically asked for you. It won’t take long."
Anshika Rathore /FL
*glancing at Ekansh and Raksh* I can’t. I have a flight—
juily / manager in Anshika company
📞"It’s important. Please. Just this once. The company really needs you on this."
Anshika Rathore /FL
*Anshika closes her eyes, knowing she can’t refuse now. She was never the type to leave work unfinished.*
Anshika Rathore /FL
*sighs* Fine. I’ll be there
juily / manager in Anshika company
📞"Great! See you soon."
Anshika Rathore /FL
*She hangs up and looks at Ekansh and Raksh, who are watching her silently.*
Anshika Rathore /FL
Change of plans. You guys go ahead. I have to attend a meeting. I’ll meet you at the airport on time.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*raising an eyebrow* You sure? We can wait.
Anshika Rathore /FL
*shaking her head* No need. I’ll manage.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*Calmly* Don’t be late. I don’t like waiting.
Anshika Rathore /FL
*Smirks slightly*
Then I guess today will be a test of patience for you.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* chuckles *
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* simply gives her a look before standing up.*
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*grinning* She’s got a sharp tongue. I like it.
Anshika Rathore /FL
*deadpan* Good for you.
Then Two off then walked towards the door to make a leave . Ekansh still thoughtful gives her one last glance before walking out .

Chapter 2
Anshika Rathore /FL
*calling someone *
Revati Rathore / fl's sis
hello baby
Anshika Rathore /FL
📞 Hello jijisa tell your soon-to-be husband to call his brother and tell him to send someone to take me
Revati Rathore / fl's sis
📞 ohh ok I will tell him
Revati Rathore / fl's sis
📞 You could just call him yourself, you know?
Anshika Rathore /FL
📞 *flatly* I could, but I don’t want to.
Revati Rathore / fl's sis
📞*laughing* Fine, fine. Hold on.
Anshika Rathore /FL
*Hung up the call *
On the other end, Revati walks into the restaurant corner table where Arjun is.
Revati Rathore / fl's sis
*teasing* Your darling sali sahiba (sis in law) is at the airport and wants you to call Ekansh to pick her up.
Arjun Chauhan/ Ml's big brother
*raising an eyebrow* Why can’t she go there by herself. Why the pickup. Service.
Revati Rathore / fl's sis
* raised an eyebrow* did she know where they are ?
Arjun Chauhan/ Ml's big brother
* sigh, shaking his head* This ....girl can't let me enjoy with you little.
Revati Rathore / fl's sis
* chuckle and slap his arm * Shut up and call him
Arjun dials Ekansh’s number, and within a few rings, Ekansh picks up.
Arjun Chauhan/ Ml's big brother
📞Ekansh, pick up Anshika from outside the airport. She just reached.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
she can walk inside
Arjun Chauhan/ Ml's big brother
📞 *firmly* I said, go pick her up.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
📞 *huffs* Fine.
Call ends. Ekansh, still sitting inside the private lounge at the airport with Raksh, leans back in his seat, rubbing his temple.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*smirking* Looks like your job just turned into a chauffeur service.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
Shut up, and you are the one whose job turned into Chauffeur service. * said sternly*
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
Now go and pick her up.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
Heartless person 😒
* after saying that he exists from there *
Raksh stepped out of the airport lounge, scanning the area for Anshika. His eyes landed on a girl standing near the entrance, phone in hand, looking around casually. His brows lifted slightly in surprise.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* in mind *
Just hours ago, i had seen her in an oversized hoodie and pajama pants, looking like she had just rolled out of bed. But now… this was a complete transformation.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*walking up to her, smirking*
Damn, are you sure you're the same girl we met earlier? Or did I pick up the wrong person?
Anshika Rathore /FL
*Glancing up, raising an eyebrow*
Do you always greet people like that?
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* grinning*. Only when the transformation is this shocking. From sleepyhead to… well, a whole boss lady vibe. Impressive.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* shrugging* Work demands it.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
Speaking of which, what kind of work makes you change avatars like this?
Anshika Rathore /FL
* casually* what do you think ?
Raksh already liked her attitude—it was calm, direct, and unfazed by his teasing.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* chuckle* Alright, little girl, let’s go. Ekansh is waiting.
He took her luggage and led her inside to the private waiting lounge. As they walked, Raksh couldn't help but notice how many eyes turned in her direction. She was effortlessly grabbing attention, but she acted like she didn't even notice.
Inside the Private Lounge
Ekansh was sitting on a leather couch, scrolling through his phone when he heard approaching footsteps. He looked up, and for a brief second, his eyes froze
The girl walking in with Raksh was the same Anshika Rathore they had met earlier… right? But she looked completely different. The lazy, sleepy girl from before was gone. Now, she carried herself with effortless confidence, dressed sharply, her fitted skirt and jacket unknowingly giving her a powerful aura.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* Ekansh narrowed his eyes slightly, observing her.*
* In mind *
Something about her didn’t sit right—like switching between personalities as per need. I had seen many people do that in my line of work, but this… this was different.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*grinning*
Surprise, surprise. Our messy designer it also seems like bossy businesswoman
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* leaning back, arms crossed*
Seems like it.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* ignored their comments and took a seat, completely unfazed *
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
Did you have dinner?
Anshika Rathore /FL
*glancing at him *
yes I had.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* gave a small nod, observing her again. She wasn’t chatty like most girls he had met. Interesting. *
9:00 PM – Inside the Private Jet
The jet was luxurious, with leather seats, dim lighting, and a fully stocked bar. Anshika took her seat near the window, while Ekansh sat across from her. Raksh made himself comfortable on the couch, stretching his arms.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
Alright, long flight ahead. Let’s see how this trip goes.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
Hey Anshi , make yourself comfortable ok ( he said will leaning on the seat )
Anshika Rathore /FL
hmm, * looking outside of window *
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* stretching* Alright, let’s talk about sleeping arrangements. The jet has two rooms, so we’ll have to share.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* leaning back* I’ll take one. You two figure out the rest.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
Oh wow, how generous of you, business tycoon and Hukum Sa of jaisalmer. (mocking tone) And what about Anshika?
Anshika Rathore /FL
* calmly* I’m not sleeping.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* raising an eyebrow* Huh? Why?
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* observing her* Not sleepy?
Anshika Rathore /FL
* shrugging* I have work.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*dramatic sigh*
Oh ho, come on! You’re telling me you’ll stay awake the whole 16-hour flight?
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
And what exactly is so important that you’re sacrificing sleep?
Anshika Rathore /FL
* smile slightly* Surviving. 🙂
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* blinking* what ?
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*Expression unreadable* ....
Anshika Rathore /FL
* Nonchalantly* I mean ....work. , deadlines, designs, meeting, life........ surviving all that .
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* groaning* ugh, you sound like Ekansh now. Work, work, work .
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* raising an eyebrow* that's why I am successful.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*. Mocking*
Yeah, yeah, business tycoon, future Hokum Sa of Jailer—blah blah ... But you know what? Normal people sleep.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* smirks*
And yet, I’m awake.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*pretends to cry*
Two workaholics in one jet. I’m doomed!
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* finally gives up and stands up*
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
Fine! I’m going to sleep. If you two want to compete on who can stay awake longer, be my guest.
He dramatically walks off to the room, leaving Anshika and Ekansh alone. Ekansh remains silent for a few seconds before speaking
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*calmly* You really don’t sleep, or was that just an excuse?
Anshika Rathore /FL
* looks at him but doesn’t answer. She simply picks up her notebook and starts scribbling something, avoiding his gaze.*
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* watches her carefully. Something was off, but he doesn’t push. Instead, he leans back, closing his eyes, but keeping her in his peripheral vision. The mystery of Anshika was just beginning to unfold.*
After a few minutes of silence, Ekansh stands up
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
Fine. If you don’t want to sleep, that’s your choice. But at least take one of the rooms
Anshika Rathore /FL
* without looking up* I’m fine here.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* sighs* I’ll sleep with Raksh. The second room is empty. Take it.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* glancing at him* I don’t need it.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* crossing arms*
Why? You have some problem sleeping in a room alone?
Anshika Rathore /FL
*calmly*
No. I just don’t sleep much.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* raising an eyebrow*
Weirder than I expected.
Anshika Rathore /FL
*smirks*
Says the most mysterious man.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
Fair enough.
*takes a seat across from her, watching her scribble in her notebook*
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
So, how do you know about Arjun and Revati?
Anshika Rathore /FL
*raises an eyebrow*
She’s my sister.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*blinks*
Wait—what?
Anshika Rathore /FL
You didn’t know? *chuckles* Revati is my older sister. And Arjun jija sa is my soon-to-be brother-in-law.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*shaking his head*
I didn’t see that coming.
Anshika Rathore /FL
Well, you’ll see a lot of unexpected things in Jodhpur.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*Leaning back* So, this whole meeting between families… it's just an act? They already love each other?
Anshika Rathore /FL
Exactly. They’ve been together for two years, but if the family finds out, they won’t agree to the marriage.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
And you’re helping them?
A brief pause. Ekansh notices how tired Anshika looks.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
You haven’t slept, have you?
Anshika Rathore /FL
*shrugs* I don’t sleep at night much.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
Insomnia?
Anshika Rathore /FL
Not exactly. It’s called Hypervigilant Sleep Disorder.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* frowning* What’s that?
Anshika Rathore /FL
I can only sleep properly if I feel safe. Otherwise, my body stays alert. So, I sleep lightly during the day instead.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*watching her closely*
That… doesn’t sound easy.
Anshika Rathore /FL
*Soft chuckle*
You get used to it.
Ekansh doesn’t say anything, but for the first time, he realizes that Anshika isn’t just reserved—there’s something deeper she’s not showing.
For a moment, a comfortable silence settled between them. Ekansh glanced at her, noticing how her face looked calm, yet her eyes carried a depth of sadness he couldn’t quite understand.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*standing up*
Alright, I’m heading to bed. Take care.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* softly* you too.
As Ekansh disappeared into the room, Anshika turned towards the window. The vast sky stretched endlessly, mirroring the emptiness she often felt.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* She hugged her knees, resting her chin on them. Her vision blurred as unshed tears filled her eyes. *
Her real parents. Their faces were still clear in her mind—the last moment she saw them alive. The sound of their desperate cries, the sight of their blood-stained hands reaching for her. The night she lost everything.
Anshika Rathore /FL
(to herself) I miss you both so much… Why did you leave me here? Why did you go so far away?
Anshika Rathore /FL
*Tear rolls down her cheek, but she quickly wipes it away. She takes a deep breath, closing her eyes for a second before opening them again. The night sky outside feels endless, just like the emptiness in her heart.*
Anshika Rathore /FL
(softly) If you were here… would I be able to sleep peacefully?

Thank you for reading ❤️
Chapter 3
The sun is barely rising when Ekansh walks back into the main cabin. He sees Anshika sitting in the same spot, her arms crossed, looking outside. She hasn't moved much.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*firmly*
Go get some sleep. Even if it’s just for a little while.
Anshika Rathore /FL
*turns to him*
I told you, I—
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*interrupts*
You said you can sleep lightly during the day, right? It’s morning now. Go.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* stares at him for a moment*
Anshika Rathore /FL
*Debating whether to argue. But deep down, she knows she’s exhausted.*
Anshika Rathore /FL
*sighs* Fine. Just for a little while.
Anshika Rathore /FL
* stands up and walks toward the room. Before entering, she pauses slightly, then continues inside, closing the door behind her. *
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* watches as she leaves, then takes a seat where she was sitting. He leans back, exhaling slowly, lost in thought.*
Ekansh was seating in the main cabin. his laptop open as was typing away. His brows are furrowed in concentration. He knows the next three days will be chaotic with the family gathering, so this is his only chance to get work done
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* walks in, stretching and yawning. *
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*sleepy voice* Bro, how do you wake up so early? Are you even human
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*without looking up* Habit. Unlike you, I don’t sleep like a buffalo.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*grinning* Don’t blame me. Your jet is too comfortable. Anyway, where’s the princess?
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*glancing at him* She’s sleeping.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* surprised *What?! She refused to sleep last night, and now she’s knocked out?
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*shrugs* She probably got tired.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
Hmm… should I wake her up for breakfast?
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* immediately stops typing and looks at Raksh with a deadpan expression.*
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*raising an eyebrow* Why not?
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*calmly* Just don’t. If you value your life, sit down and eat quietly.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*dramatic gasp*
Bro, what are you hiding? Is she some kind of secret ninja? Will she kill me in my sleep?
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*scoffs* No. But she might kill you if you disturb her.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*muttering* I knew it… she’s dangerous.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*shakes his head, ignoring Raksh’s nonsense.*
They both settle down and start their breakfast.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* pours himself some coffee while scrolling through his phone.*
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
So, about that Singapore deal… are we going ahead with it?
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*nodding* Yes, but I want the contract revised. They’re trying to take a bigger cut than they should.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
Typical. Everyone wants a piece of our empire.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*smirks* Let them try. They won’t last a day against us.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*grinning* True. By the way, that Russian shipment? It’s arriving tomorrow. Should we move it now or wait?
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
Delay it. I don’t want any distractions while I’m dealing with family
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*mock horror* The mighty mafia king, scared of family drama?
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*glancing at him* You clearly haven’t met badi hukum rani sa (his grandmother)
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* bursts out laughing *
They continue their conversation, unaware that time is passing quickly.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* checks the time on his watch and then the flight status on his laptop.*
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*calmly* We’ll land in about two hours.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*stretching* Good. I need a proper bed. This jet is nice, but nothing beats
Anshika Rathore /FL
* walks into the main cabin, looking refreshed but still a bit sleepy. Her hair is slightly messy, and she lazily adjusts her jacket.*
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*grinning* Look who finally decided to join us! Slept well, princess?
Anshika Rathore /FL
*ignoring his teasing* Morning.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
*simply nods at her, acknowledging her presence.*
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
Breakfast?
Anshika Rathore /FL
*shaking her head* I’ll eat at home.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
* dramatic gasp*
what ? You dare to refuse food ?
Anshika Rathore /FL
*deadpan* Yes.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*looks at Ekansh* Bro, do something.
Ekansh Chauhan/ML
* shrugs* Let her be.
Raksh Sethi/ ml's bff
*mock hurt* No one listens to me in this jet. What kind of dictatorship is this?
Anshika Rathore /FL
* smirk slightly* ohhh so sad brother. I really feel pity for you .
