Finally my exams got over today , so here I am . Sorry guys I wasn't able to respond to your messages immediately .

Annika decided to not speak about the advance cash anymore because she very well realized that he wouldn't want to give an honest reply regarding it which will reflexly make her angry . She thought to better leave this topic here only , if not then she can't keep her mouth shut . Even shivaay made use of this excuse and refused of speak of it for now .

The day remained to become an usual one , and it was early night when annika already found her nap while shivaay was present in the living room , engaged with his laptop .

He was confused on hearing the sudden ring of the calling bell at that time  .

At once there was a wide smile on his face after seeing the person by the door who soon rushed in to share a hug with him .

C - hey !!

S - hi ! Andhar aao .

That's when he noticed Adi who stood beside her , he just passed a formal smile and invited both inside. Adi kept silent throughout .

S- vaise ,

C - I know what you're going to ask , I didn't tell you about my plan because I wanted to surprise you !

S- someone looks super happy today ...?

He quizzed popping his brows and watched both of them  alternatively .

C - I'll tell but before that , where's my sister annika ?

Ad - sleeping , mostly .

Came his immediate reply for which shivaay blinked , ticking his answer .

S- exactly.

C - sleepy log ! Didn't even hear the calling bell ?!!

She asked showing her much surprised face and shivaay immediately pasted a silly grin on his lips .

S- don't even go there ! You can't know how well her ears work when asleep .

Experience of spending an whole night outside made him give that sarcastic answer .

C - where's the room ?

Throwing her bag on the couch , she enquired for shivaay quietly pointed the direction . All the three went there together to only find annika tossing on the bed and hugging the pillow to her chest in process of comforting herself.

C- is this normal ? Like , sleeping this early ?!

Charu questioned titling her head sideways ,near him .

S- well , she's taking tablets so ofcourse she tends to become drowsy all the time .

She rose her brows and nodded on hearing his defending statement, and that's when annika woke up herself. Squirming like a worm , she squeezed her eyes which soon bulged out after witnessing the people around her . She just stared at them blankly while Adi who stood behind charu grinned , waving his hand .

Annika  jumped to pinch charu's arm who winced aloud immediately.

C - ahh pagal ! Isko defend kar rahe thei na tum ? She hardly looks a patient, ahh! !

She complained to shivaay who reflexly looked at annika whom he knew would have an immediate answer for that .

A- arey nahi behna ! I was worried that my dream was still prolonging , that's why I pinched you to check it .

C - what dream?

Charu asked with the same frown on her face ,  annika blinked once and smiled mischievously.

A- ghost ofcourse, what else ?!

Soon all the three except charu were found smiling . How playfully she  had referred her sister to , a ghost .

S- please annika they've just arrived , don't start your sister war now.

He kept his grin going while he spoke these words . Annika mentally obeyed him and stepped off the bed , just to be immediately pulled by Adi in a tight hug .

A- whoa ! Monkey became a gorilla today , what's the matter ? You seem joyous !

Ad - gorilla ? Fine , it's time then , for gorilla weds this ghost !

He exclaimed , hugging charu sideways . Shivika  looked totally surprised.

A- really ?!!

Ad - ha haan ! We had this parents to parents meeting this morning , it went well so yeah .

A- wait wait wait , how come you reached here so soon?

S- what sort of doubt is this ?

He nudged her shoulder .

A- no shivaay , we travelled a whole night to come here but these both were in the city till morning and now they're here.

C- I hope you know that there's a thing called flight , aeroplane ...

A- oh haan , I just forgot about that.

C- forgot to bring your brain from sleep I suppose .

A- hey charu enough haan ! Look shivaay ,see who's triggering now .

Shivaay looked at both the sisters alternatively and let a deep sigh .

C- you just compared me with a ghost , isn't that a triggering task then ?

Ad - baby , she didn't compare rather she actually said it , I mean like you're a ghost .

Charu passed a strong glare at him after when he whispered to correct her statement  .

Adi gulped and showed his wide grin .

A- acha teek haina , bas. Let me congratulate my behna first.

She went and hugged charu .

A- Congo's Ms. Charuka !

Charu smiled immediately.

C - kaisi hai tu ?

A- that you should tell me , how am I ?

C - hmm... you've put on some weight .

A- no way !

She pulled out and shouted , scanning herself thoroughly on the mirror for shivaay soon went and held her shoulders from behind.

S- she's just kidding .

A- you should stop providing me those fat filled  food .

S- so you want to blame my cooking now ?

A - then what !

S- if you put and end card to your mini stall, you will automatically look slim.

A- haww ! So I really look fat ?!!.... It's ok , being chubby can be cute sometimes you know .

She kept twisting and turning to examine her image. One second she was reluctant and the next , she changes positive, exclusive attitude indeed. Shivaay smiled. Adi who was watching everything silently till now ,spoke .

Ad - you both really make the perfect match for each other , I must say .

Shivika watched each other's image and shared a pleasant eyelock when he spoke that compliment.

Annika and charu were at the backyard, playing with oreo ,leaving the boys who were currently sharing an awkward space with each other on not knowing what to converse about . Well , they hardly have spoken to each other from since the beginning . Not good friends , they were. Some more minutes flew by with the same silent atmosphere until Adi spoke.

Ad - kahin chalthey hain ?

S- iss waqt ? Kahan ?

Ad - come on , this is Goa !

Adi exclaimed showing all the hint of excitement in his eyes . Mostly everyone would have planned for a goa trip in life , and he wasn't any exception . So when he's here , he chose to make the best of it .

S- okkaay.

He dragged the word and still looked baffled .

Ad - let's go then .

Shivaay fetched the car keys and marched to the balcony to inform the girls first . He called out for her from there , and she immediately looked up .

A- kya ?

S- I'm leaving somewhere with Adi .

A- par kahan ?

S - I'll be back soon, don't worry .

A- shivaay ,

C- annika chod , bachen thodi na hai vo donon.

Annika thought for a few seconds before waving bye to him who soon left from there .

A- what did he say ?

C- uncle as usual looked serious , he hasn't changed yet .

A- chahe tho , I can provide you some tips, like how to impress your in -laws . Senior hoon na mein .

As she kept munching the pop corn , she made this statement and smirked for charu rose her brows before smacking annika's head.

C - vo sab mein dekhungi.

A- well, whatever... God it's already 12 and these two hadn't shown up yet , call that monkey . Shivaay's phone is switched off .

C - hmm .

She dialled for Adi . Within few seconds , he attended the call .

Ad - ba..by !

Charu closed her eyes tightly for a second on hearing his voice singing a rhyme . She cringed , realizing something and immediately stood up to walk far from annika .

C - Adi !! Have you any sense , kabi sudroge bi tum ?

Maintaining a stren voice , she scolded him while annika looked confused as she hardly heard anything.

Ad - hmm ! Nahi bab..y. mein , vo , ye aur

His words merely made any sense as all she could here was his ring of blabbers.

C- shut up you idiot ! Where are you ?

Ad - ham ....where are we ?

Adi acted to keep his finger on his chin and started thinking until ,

S- goooooaaaa

Shivaay giggled and shouted in Adi's ears suddenly, before rotating his grip on the wheel . Here , charu's eyes widened in shock .

C - Adi , jaldi aajao please .

Gritting her teeth , she somehow managed to utter this sweetly.

Ad - awww !

She hung up quickly muttering " ajaa beta ajaa , annika tera murder kardegi aaj "

A- charu, what did he tell ?

C - hmm , ugh.. vo ...they're on their way back . Tum , tum so jao na , mein dekthi hoon .

A- no it's ok , let them come .

C - hey annika , you should rest right ? Don't strain yourself, go sleep .

A- wah ! How did my rude behna become sweet suddenly ? Kuch huwa tho nahi na ?

Annika raised her brows and smiled while charu pretended to be very normal but was she ...? Well , no ,not really . She did sense the volcano which was ready to erupt .

Ad - jaldiii !!! Baby muje miss kar rahi hai .

Shivaay stomped the brake right there. Adi jumped forward and his face hit the windshield right away in that sudden force.

Ad - ahh !

He kept wiping his head .

S- muje ek baath bathao , what's this baby ?

Ad - pyaar mei ...hota hai aise .

He spoke in a dreamy voice while shivaay frowned immediately.

S- mein bi annika se pyaar kartha hoon ...oh my god !!!

At once he plamed his mouth and looked horrified .

Ad - kya ?

S- it's a secret, meine kissi ko nahi bathaya abi tak , bool jao bool jao ok ?

He threatened him seriously and Adi immediately pretended to collect something from his brain and throw it away.

Ad - done, bool gaya .

S - vaise , it's ok . Tum cupid thei hamare rishte ka , so you can know . No problem .

Shivaay actioned to aim an arrow at him while speaking of cupid , and soon Adi was found grinning.

Ad - thanks .

S- no no , thank you Aditya ! For everything , for ...for my ani !

Shivaay exclaimed spreading his arms for his one hand reached past the window even .

Ad - honey ? So you use honey ? mein baby tu honey. Wow !

S- nahi nahi, it's not honey . It's ani , annika.

Ad - ooo .

A - what did he even tell you? Abi tak nahi aayi vo donon . Chod , let me call him .

C - annika ruk , traffic huwi hogi shayad.

A- really ? I agree that sometimes I behave like nuts , par mein pagal nahi hoon behna .

Saying this she fetched her mobile and dialled of him while Charu looked super tensed.

That's when the bell rang . Charu didn't delay any more and went to unlock the door .

The bell sound was heard even after when she had opened the door , annika straightly marched till there in confusion to witness something shocking.

The drunken duo was here , legs jiggling like a spring and hands flying in air as if they were some musicians . She glared directly while Adi was still pressing the calling bell without noticing the girls there .

Ad - you know one thing shivaay ? Mein , aur teri honey , sorry ani , we used to play like this . Calling bell on karke baag jathey thei , aur apartment mei saari aunties hame maarthey thei .

He and shivaay started to laugh soon when he completed.

C - bas chal .

Charu came forward and dragged Adi inside.

Annika refused to support shivaay , well , she was really angry . But just when he slipped through the steps , she couldn't help but engulf and support him walk .

A- what have you done shivaay ?

S- shh !! Bathein nahi , kamoshi chahiye muje .

He pressed his finger on her lips and watched straight into her eyes which had nothing but a lava of anger within them now . He didn't bother though . She pushed his hand away when he rubbed her soft lips .He then slowly drew patterns on her face , and wandered his index finger over her temple till chin slowly while she blinked taking a gulp to control herself. 

S- did I ever tell you this ? Ki gusse mei bhi tum ...tum ,

And , he passed out right there on the floor .

A- shivaay , shivaay!

C- ye bi ?

Charu asked leaving a deep sigh  . Then both the girls somehow managed to land those two unconscious people on the couch .

A- what's this charu ? How

C- not now annika.

She shook her head saying this  . Annika stormed back to her room fastly not before scowling at both the boys like a cruel monster .

S - I remember nothing .

Shivaay spoke aloud, catching hold of his  spinning head .

Ad - I think I do , we went to the pub .

He replied scratching his hair like a monkey for real .

Shivaay didn't actually miss annika's dagger like eyes . He gulped. 

S - you , you ordered for a drink .

He blamed Adi and pretended innocent. 

Ad - me ? No ! wait, actually speaking I would have . But we just had one peg .

S- yeah , but then you wanted to try whiskey , so then we went for the second round .

Ad - haan ! yes yes ,what came next then ? So two then ?

S- no you didn't stop .

Ad - three then ?

S- but then you said that ,

Annika and charu who were silently watching their conversation bursted out immediately.

A- bas shivaay , stop it ! Have some shame both of you .

She shouted .

S- annika wait , it , it wasn't planned ok . We,  I don't know we just went there and

A- please shivaay,  both of you are KG students and without knowing anything you went there . And the bartenders there poured you your polio drops , inspite of your denial . Is that what you have to say ?

Immediately a loud giggle was heard for she turned and burned Adi with  her eyes . Adi silently went and stood  behind charu .

S- annika relax , this ain't any such a big sin . It happens.

A- ohh really ? Be glad that I'm still talking to you shivaay . I really can't stand such rubbish ,  I'm like that .

S - I don't realise what makes you this angry   ? As if I come home drunk everyday .

A- please shivaay ! I don't want to talk to you anymore . Koshish bhi mat karo tum .

She joined her palms together infront of him which brought the noise of  a clap .

S- this is too much annika ! You're overreacting.

Shaking his head slowly , shivaay deep sighed .

Ad- annika

Before he could say anything,  a pillow came and banged on his face with full force. 

He squeezed his eyes and shivered  noticing his dear bestie who just did that legendary job .

A- just shut up .Everything is because of you, monkey !

Adi showed  his so very puppy face while she was murdered him with her eyes, having no pity.

C- please calm down annika.

Ad- mein

A- charu kindly ask your boyfriend to be quiet , orelse cylinder on karke usko kitchen mei bandh kardoonga mein. Chahe tho match box bhi

She stopped her words when Adi put  finger his lips and turned away from her.

S- it's shocking annika , itne impulsive kyun ho tum ? Matlab,  we just had some shots because,  we were celebrating.  Like , just a treat . But why do you want to control me in this too ?

Shivaay showed his baffled face . She decided not to argue anymore because she knew , it can't have an end today .She left from there  silently and shivaay just sighed passing an helpless look at charu .

For all the things my hands have held the best by far is you 💘

Precap

Shivaay wants to apologize.
