It's been a week since Shivaay Is ignoring Tej which is eating him up. He tried hard to sit and talk with him but every time Shivaay said he is busy which disappointed him a lot. From childhood, he avoided conversation with him but he wants to talk with him, at least once because he is very guilty. When someone pointed at him Shakti is connected with him with blood and also Anika, he felt so disgusted. He wanted to ask if was that his fault. That made him realise Shivaay was also never. He always observed Shivaay's behaviour towards Anika which was always good which he didn't expect. He thought his wife will stay unhappy and will leave him but when he noticed Anika hated him he started to hate her.

Till now nobody pointed out his decisions and never argued with him, not even Janvi but when he heard Anika he disliked her. Now he realised why she did that, he wanted her to speak when Ishana's father was blaming him but when Anika walked away he felt his hopes lost. When Shivaay handled the situation by pointing out Ishana's behaviour and lies he got to know Shivaay knew about Omkara's relationship a long ago. Whereas he got to know 2 months ago. Now he started to work hard but still whenever a meeting is held most of the people ask about Shivaay and in the end, he loses the deal.

He came out of his thoughts seeing Shivaay entering the hall and talking with someone over the phone. Seeing him he declined the call and greeted him good afternoon but formally there were no expressions on his face. Shivaay was about to go when he stopped him

"Shivaay", he called but Shivaay left from there. He stayed there for some time and noticed Shivaay coming back holding a file

"Shivaay", he called again and Shivaay stopped in his track

"When you will be free?", asked Tej in a low voice looking down because of nervousness. Till now he never had an open conversation with Shivaay, they used to talk about business whenever together. Now he is repenting for why he never gave him time, he was also a father. If Shivaay lost his parents it was his duty to make Shivaay feel like getting his family back. If he cared for Shivaay then he would have forgotten what Shakti did with Pinky and how she killed Shakti.

"I don't know", Shivaay whispered looking at him, he is free today. He just needs to attend one meeting and that also doesn't matter till Anika is there but now he doesn't want to stay with him. From the time Anika asked him to ignore Tej he lost interest in talking with Tej. He still respects him a lot but he doesn't trust him anymore. He doesn't want to listen to any abusive words from him. He found his sweetness fake as till now he always humiliated him, now he felt like Tej changed his behaviour just for guilt and if he forgives then Tej will be back to the old one again.

"Why are you behaving coldly ", Tej asked

"I'm neutral just like you wanted and you should not talk with a person who is a son of a womanizer", Shivaay replied sarcastically and turned to go hut Tej held his arm

"I'm sorry for calling you that but that time I was angry with Shakti ", Tej tried to justify his actions but Shivaay stopped him by showing his hand and removed Tej's hand from his arm.

"Ohh, please. Anger doesn't stay for years. If you ever considered me as your son then you would have forgiven my mistakes. So don't act like you love me or your behaviour is justified. You want my forgiveness then fine I forgive you now please stop faking innocence", Shivaay said and left from there hurriedly without giving him any chance for Tej to speak more. Now he wants to see was Tej acting to get forgiveness or if he is really changed.

Stop acting innocent Shivaay. I know you must be having external affairs like your father

Tej recalled his words and closed his eyes tightly. Now Shivaay forgave him but his heart is still heavy like something is still left. He doesn't know what to do or how to rectify his mistakes. How to ask Shivaay to rejoin, he doesn't want Shivaay to think like he is acting selfish because now he is not. Guilt is eating him up, he wants to rectify his blunder so that his heart would get peace. After hearing Shivaay's wish to get love from him, he wants to show his love to him but he doesn't know how? He sat on the sofa thinking about what to do next. He doesn't know anything about Shivaay, his likes or dislikes nothing. How he will gift him something?

"Shivaay ", Anika called him when she noticed him entering her cabin without a file which confused her as he told her he is going home to take that. Before she could ask him anything Shivaay hugged her tightly. Anika rubbed her hand on his back softly.

"Are you fine Shivaay? Is there something bothering you? And where is the file?", Anika asked

"In-car ", Shivaay told and remembered he forgot to bring the file.

"Ok I will bring that ", Anika said and kissed his cheek. Shivaay smiled feeling love from her, that's why he want to spend his time with her not Tej. They stayed in a hug for some time and then Shivaay broke the hug.

"Why he is changing his behaviour now? Yesterday he praised me and today... He was trying to justify his behaviour and I lost Anika. I forgave him but now I don't want to talk with him anymore. I don't crave his love anymore. I want to see if he wants me after forgiveness or not", Shivaay questioned her. Anika dragged him towards his chair and gestured for him to sit.

"Today he asked me when I will be free and nowadays he is behaving sweetly", Shivaay continued showing his confusion over the changed behaviour of Tej.

"I guess someone put a brain in his head", Anika said and looked down biting her lips when Shivaay glared at her

"I mean I guess he got some sense now. Anyways take a rest here I will handle the meeting then we will go out today ok", Anika said to which Shivaay hummed and pulled her onto his lap. Anika's hair fell on her face due to a sudden pull. He held her waist and tucked her hair stand behind her ear. His hand touched her cheek softly making her shiver with his touch.

"Don't worry ", Anika said and ruffled his hair softly. Just like him, she also loves playing with his hair. She finds reasons to touch his hair which is soft and silky. Shivaay hummed and pulled her close towards himself. Anika placed her hand on his cheeks, In front of his charm every boy is zero for her, and not only his face but the heart also. She pulled his cheeks and then kissed his forehead. Shivaay looked into her eyes intensely and then at her lips. Anika blushed getting the hint and touched thier forehead together

Anika held his coat and closed her eyes letting Shivaay do whatever he wants. He kissed her and then turned her, he kissed her bare back and then removed the dress from her shoulder to kiss her more. He held her hands and intertwined thier fingers together. He thought he will never get a chance to spend a whole day with her again and now he is happy to get it. He has to continue from here but it is not bad compared to staying alone. That time he used to crave her touch, her voice and her presence. He noticed people crossing limits because of physical needs that's why he was a little worried. He had full faith in Anika but little bit he was scared and jealous because he wanted to be here.

"After meeting we will enjoy today", Anika said and kissed his forehead. Shivaay hummed and set her dress alright as well as her hair.

"Now looking better", Shivaay said patting her cheeks softly. Anika smiled and left from there blushing because of the moment they shared right now.

Later after meeting they both left office to enjoy a day together. They first went to the mall for shopping and watched a 3d movie there. They purchased dresses and toys for Ansh and a few for themselves as well. In the evening they went to a restaurant to have a meal together and came at 7 as they got a call from Omru who told them Ansh is crying. Anika ran towards Ansh and showed him toys that she purchased as Ansh was with Omru and Tej in the hall. When Shivaay noticed him he went numb because he understood Tej must have guest he was free today. Shivaay looked down nervously when he noticed Tej looking at him, he want to speak and give an excuse but he don't have anything in his mind.

"Shivaay give my baby chocolate. He wants to have it hana?", Anika asked in a baby voice holding the tiny hands of Ansh, she waited for a minute and then shook Shivaay and asked him to give her chocolate. Shivaay gave her chocolate and went from there without looking up as he is guilty of lying. Anika also came behind Shivaay thanking Omru for staying with Ansh.

Because of the office she always stays busy and can't take Ansh to the office daily because he disturbs the environment there. When she takes him to the office whole concentration goes on him and she feels like employees don't work properly. When she entered the room she noticed Shivaay sitting on the bed, his coat was on the chair as well as a tie which is not his habit.

"What happened now?", Anika asked as he was very happy when they came back and she don't know what happened suddenly

"Bade papa got to know I was free today", Shivaay said

"No problem. It is your life and your decision so don't worry", Anika said and placed Ansh on the bed. Ansh went towards Shivaay and hugged him, with his hug Shivaay forgot his tension and started to play with him. He showed him whatever they brought for him which made Ansh happy and he got excited seeing lights from toys. Shivaay made Ansh sleep after playing with him and noticed Anika working. He went towards her and closed the laptop. He put Anika's hair in her front and
kissed her back. Anika shivered to feel his lips and turned to see Ansh sleeping and Shivaay looking at her.

"Leave it now", Shivaay said and sat near her on the sofa. Anika cupped his cheeks and asked if he is fine or not.

"I'm fine but will not let you sleep today", Shivaay replied and leaned towards her face. He touched their forehead together and looked into her eyes intensely. Anika blushed and caressed his beard softly, she started to take long breaths when Shivaay decreased the distance between them and kissed her. When he broke the kiss he joined thier forehead together and caressed her cheek with his thumb.

"But be careful. Your son can wake up with noise", Anika giggled telling him the truth as many times Ansh woke up at midnight and started crying for no reason and when she tried making him sleep again, he became active to play. Nights were hard when she has to stay awake till Ansh was awake and then the next day she used to go office.

"I will tell him I'm planning another sibling for him", Shivaay winked. Anika hides her face from him and hugged him

"Is it true? Do you want ?", Anika asked

"No and this time I want to ask do you want another child?", Shivaay asked to which Anika shooked her head

"No I am happy with my son and if you want a daughter then wait for some years now", Anika said going towards Ansh and kissing Ansh's cheek. Shivaay hummed as he also thought the same as they are already very busy, He don't want them to act like strangers in the same house or just for kids.

"What about your opinion? If you...", Anika was about to say something when Shivaay placed his finger on her mouth

"I have the same thoughts because I don't want to lose a few hours with you", Shivaay said, Anika, kissed his finger which was on her lips and held his hand. Shivaay pushed Anika lightly and hovered over her bed. He started to kiss her every part showing his love and how much he missed her. The whole night they continued making love and cherished each other. In the morning Anika woke up because of the crying sound of Ansh and wore Shivaay's T-shirt immediately which was lying next to her and picked Ansh in her arms. Shivaay stirred in sleep and hugged Anika in sleep.

Shivaay woke up hearing the giggling sound of Ansh and noticed Anika and Ansh playing with each other. He smiled and stared at Anika as she was wearing his shirt, Anika noticed him awake and gave him another shirt to wear. Shivaay gestured for Anika to come near him, when Anika came, he pulled over him and kissed her, he won't want to stop now because she is looking so beautiful in his shirt.

"Shivaay control yourself", Anika said eyeing Ansh and blushing to remember last night, Shivaay nuzzled her neck and kissed her cheeks. He opened the buttons of her shirt which went unnoticed by Anika as she was lost because of his closeness. When she felt his lips on her shoulder she realised what he did and widened her eyes in shock. But she didn't push him as she don't want to go away from him now, now even for a second. They had to separate because Ansh is awake, Anika stepped back after kissing his cheeks and left to change because she knows if she stayed like this in front of him then he will not let her go. She is scared to leave Ansh alone because he can hurt himself. Shivaay picked Ansh in his arms and rubbed his nose with him. He played with Ansh for some time.

"Where is Anika?", Shivaay asked, Ansh looked here and there and then at him. After a few seconds, he started crying which scared Anika and she came out immediately within 2 minutes

"What happened to him?", Anika asked, when Ansh noticed her he went towards her and hugged her. Anika kissed his forehead and patted his back to calm him down.

"I'm here baby", Anika said and kissed his cheeks many times to calm her son

"I asked him where you went and he started crying", Shivaay said

"You both are the same. Where I will go?", Anika asked Ansh holding his cheeks. Ansh giggled, he didn't understand what Anika said but for him, it looked funny.

"I don't cry ", Shivaay said

"Now you are complaining like a kid ", Anika said

"Ok fine. Can I get my coffee?", Shivaay asked to which Anika nodded and left for the kitchen to prepare coffee for him. Shivaay also came behind her holding Ansh which Omru took from him as daily they wait till Anika gives Ansh to him. Shivaay entered the kitchen and noticed Anika pouring milk into his cup. He smiled and hugged her from back when she placed the pan back on the stove

"Shivaay ", Anika whispered and turned to see him standing behind her. Shivaay caged her between him and the counter, Anika looked here and there when Shivaay decreased the distance leaving no space between them

"S... Someone will come ", Anika said and started to breathe heavily, last night came into her mind and she hugged him as she got her love back.

"You know I don't care", Shivaay whispered near her ear.

"Our love and togetherness is my strength Anika, you are the reason behind my success. I love you very much and I want us to stay happy forever. You made my life beautiful after coming into my life. Don't ever mind my behaviour if I get busy and ignore you because more than work I love you. I am a mad person who fears someone taking you away because you are too precious to me. I know last year was hard for you and me as well. But now I will make sure we don't repeat our mistakes again", Shivaay whispered

"I know and I love you too Shivaay. You are the man I dreamt of, sometimes I wonder what I did in past to get a person like you. And I am also mad that make many mistakes and still you forgive me. Thank you for that. And no one can snatch me away from you, do you think I will let anyone take me away from you? I will break that person's leg if anyone tried to touch me even because only you have this right, my Shivaay's right. Without whom Anika can't stay happy, I will lose my smile if you left me. I get ready for you to see me and compliment me not for anyone else. I don't give any heed to another boy. So keep this heart calm because I am just yours", Anika kissed his heart and rubbed her hand on his chest. Shivaay felt so delighted after hearing her words which gave her peace. He hugged her and kissed her hair.

After finishing his coffee he went to Tej's room and asked him to handle the Dubai branch if he want to do something for him. At first, Tej stayed silent but then he agreed which made Shivaay happy. He arranged everything for him but in the end, Janvi got one urgent work so Tej had to go alone. Shivaay then rejoined the Oberoi industry and took over his business. He entered his cabin after 8 months which looked so long to him, he felt he got his life back. This office has many memories from the time he started the business till he was forced to leave.
