“Hello khushi” Shivaay told extremely sweetly.

“H-ha bhaiyya tell me. Why did you call at this time?” Khushi asked confused.

“Why sweetheart? I can't call my sister? How are you doing? All fine?” He asked and Anika looked confused on what he was doing.

“Y-ya fine. What happened?” Khushi was equally confused.

“Nothing happened. Why didn't you come out of the room to see your Bhaiyya? I just came there along with Anika. Arnav told you were sleeping. I'm hurt” Shivaay told and Anika looked at him with wide eyes.

“I—I—I'm sorry. I didn't know” Khushi stammered.

“Ah leave that. How's your health? Aren't you going for weekly checkup?” Shivaay asked.

“Do you eat healthy? You should eat properly. Tell me what did you eat today?” Shivaay asked before Khushi could answer.

“Bhaiyya what——”

“Aren't you going for jogging in the morning? Aren't you drinking eight glasses of water a day?” He asked and Anika looked at him weirdly.

“Bhaiyya what are you saying——”

“Give the mobile to Arnav” Shivaay told and in a moment, Arnav took the mobile.

“Am I on speaker?” Shivaay asked.

“No why?”

“Put the call on speaker”

“So Arnav, I'm going to 'worship' my sister from today. You don't have any problem right?” Shivaay asked and Anika looked shocked at him before snatching the mobile from him.

“I didn't tell him anything Anika. I didn't break the promise” Shivaay told loud enough for Arnav to hear.

“You did. You just did” She told angrily.

“What did I say? Did I say what you told me?” Shivaay asked.

“Yes you just meant that I heard everything bhabhi said” Anika told angrily and only hearing the gasp, she realised that Arnav was still on line.

“Talk to them. Bottling up everything in your mind won't help. I won't let you do that again” Shivaay told and her lips quivered as she tried to talk.

“Bhaiyya——I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. I'm sorry bhabhi” She told with tears rolling down her eyes and Shivaay side hugged her. 

“I'm coming” Arnav told in a whisper before hanging the call.

“Anika, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it that way. I don't know what I was thinking at that time” Khushi told hugging Anika with tears rolling down her eyes.

“No I'm sorry bhabhi. I only thought about myself. I'm sorry if I hurt you” Anika told with tears.

“Don't say like this. My place is after you. I don't want it in any other way. I know what he had gone through and I shouldn't have even uttered those words knowing how much he loves you. Forgive me if you can” Khushi told guiltily.

“Bhabhi don't say like this and make me more emotional. I won't let your brother sleep by crying all night” Anika told with a pout and khushi chuckled with tears.

“It's ok if he doesn't sleep. In your language, he is a big chantomai and bagadbilla” Khushi told and Anika turned to look at Shivaay who was frowning.

“Look at his face” Anika told chuckling and he turned his face with fake anger.

She turned to look at Arnav who wasn't talking anything. Walking to him, she kneeled down in front of him and kissed both his hands.

“I'm sorry bhaiyya” She told softly.

“I know he told you everything. Just forget it bhaiyya. No truth in this world can change my love towards you. You might have hid this from me thinking I'll see you differently and to not hurt me while I hid everything from you thinking you'll see me differently and to not hurt you. But nothing changed bhaiyya. We're still the same” She told with a teary eyed smile and he nodded with tears.

“Arnav's Anika I'm right?” She asked pointing at herself and he looked at her with tears in his eyes.

“And she is Arnav's Khushi right?” She asked and Arnav nodded.

“Now who is there for my Shiv? So I'm going to his side” She told with a sheepish smile and Arnav frowned.

“Are you planning to make us both fight? Bro, you take her. I have no complains” Shivaay told and Anika chuckled while Arnav smiled.

“Don't be such a kanjoos Bhaiyya. Smile properly. You don't have to give tax for smiling” She told stretching his cheeks with a frown and he chuckled before hugging her.

“I'm happy you told this instead of keeping everything in your mind like you did” Arnav told and Anika turned to look at Shivaay.

“He is the reason. I even made him promise me that he won't say this to you but as Bhabhi said, he is a big chantomai” Anika told and Arnav chuckled before kissing her head.

They talked for sometime until Arnav saw Khushi stifling a yawn while trying to keep her eyes open.

“We're leaving then” Arnav told and both of them headed out of the room.

Once they did, Shivaay pulled her towards him making her surprised.

“Your Shiv ha?” He asked and she blushed as she kept her forehead on his chest.

“Waise kamaal hai! You don't call me Shiv when we're together but in front of everyone, what all do you call? Shivaay, Shiv, hubby. Wah wah wah” He told as he made her face him and she blushed more.

He caressed her cheek with his thumb while she closed her eyes with a smile playing on her lips.

“Shivaay———Oh shit! Sorry” Arnav told turning and they quickly parted from each other embarrassed.

“Can I turn now?” Arnav asked embarassed.

“Hmm hmm turn” Shivaay told and Arnav turned before breathing a sigh of relief.

“I forgot my mobile” He told and took the mobile before rushing out of the room while Anika hit her forehead with a red face.

“Everything is because of you. How will I look at Bhaiyya's face now?” She asked and he shrugged.

“With your eyes” He told and she looked at him. If looks could kill, definitely shivaay would have turned into ashes.

“Ok I mean how many times have you caught him and khushi literally kissing? We weren't doing anything right” He asked and she pouted.

“Still!! It's so embarrassing” She told whining and he walked to the door before locking it.

“Let's sleep” He told and she looked at him.

“Sleep?” She asked and he nodded confused.

“What else should we do at night? If you forgot it's a working day tomorrow and I don't want to yawn and pave way for unnecessary rumors” He told in a teasing voice by the end and she looked away biting her lower lip.

“Let's sleep” She told and got on the bed.

He smiled and joined her before spooning her in his arms from behind.

“We're going to Shimla in two days” He whispered in her ear and she turned to him.

“What will we do from there?” She asked and he pulled her close to him holding her waist.

“We can either spend the entire two days in the hotel or go for visiting the place” He told huskily.

“What will we do from the hotel?” She asked.

“We can do many things” He told caressing the outline of her lower lip with his thumb making her gasp.

“Chii!” she told hiding her face in his chest making him chuckle.

He hugged her back with a smile.

“Will we do wo wala things that couples do in honeymoon?” She asked blushing.

“That wo wala thing has a name. Scientifically we call it——” She covered his mouth with wide eyes.

“Shh!” She hissed and he chuckled before taking her palm and kissing there.

“Ok you don't want to hear the scientific term? Then romantically, we call it love——”

“Cheapde!! Shut up” She told hitting his chest making him chuckle.

“Listen——”

“My name is not listen so I won't listen” He told and she chuckled.

“Are you romantic or non-romantic?” She asked.

“Where did that question come from?” He asked and she shrugged.

“Well, you should be answering that question. Am I romantic or should I be more romantic?” He asked and she blushed.

“You haven't yet done anything for me to decide that” She told and he gasped.

“I haven't?”

“No” She told, tongue in her cheek.

“Then I should you how romantic I'm” He told before turning their position and going on top of her making her gasp.

“Don't do anything” She told and he chuckled.

“Good evolution. From ‘what are you doing to Don't do anything’ So you know I'm upto something” He told as he dipped his head in crook of her neck and planting a kiss there making her breath go uneven.

“Shiv” She breathed and he raised his head to look at her.

“So I have to do this to get you to call my name” He told and she blushed as she looked away.

“Let's sleep now or else I may do something” He told lying back on the bed.

“What?”

“Scientific term or Romantic term. Which do you want?” He asked and she blushed as she hid her face in his chest.

“Good night” He whispered kissing her head and she closed her eyes with a smile.

She knocked on the door and heard a come in before slowly entering inside.

“Ma'am——” Rahul told standing abruptly making her confused.

“Ma'am? Why are you standing Rahul?” She asked confused and Rahul smiled awkwardly.

“I didn't know you're sir's wife. I was too embarrassed to face you after that” He told and she chuckled.

“It's ok. I know he's short tempered and a little kadoos. And please. No ma'am and madam. Call me Anika itself. I'm his wife outside this building. Inside here, I'm his PA” She told and he smiled.

“Actually I came to take the report of this. Is it ready?” She asked giving him a file.

“Ya one second” He told and walked to the drawer to take the report file.

“Are you married?” Anika asked and he raised his head to look at her.

“Why?”

“Just casual talks” She told with a smile and he nodded.

“I'm married and I have two six month old kids” Rahul told.

“Aww that's so sweet. Boy and girl?” She asked excited as he gave her the file.

“Yes, Hriday and Hridya” Rahul told with a wide smile.

“And your wife's name?” She asked.

“Mahi” He told and she smiled.

“Do you have their photos?” She asked and Rahul took his mobile before showing the photo of his wife who looked really chubby with effects of pregnancy and twin kids.

“I have definitely seen her somewhere” Anika told confused.

“Might be. World is small right” He told with a smile and Anika nodded.

“I'll take your leave” She told and walked out of the cabin wondering where had she seen this Mahi.

PRECAP:

“Touch karke dil se dil... attach kiya re” She sang as she finally tucked everything in and took the pallu to arrange it properly when Shivaay walked urgently in in some call making the pallu slip from her hands.

“Anika the———” His voice left him to mind it's own business as he saw her standing like a statue looking at him shocked.
