AvNeil OS : "Finding Their Ways Back To Each Other.!"

It was a fresh bright sunny day though Neil's brightness was missing from his Life, perhaps hidden behind some dark clouds. There Mr. not so bright was standing right in front of his Wardrobe, clad only in his Towel with his body and hairs damp from a fresh shower, ready to play a battle with his clothes and unarrange them in an attempt to find best Suited Formal dress for his important meeting, all by himself.

Neil knew however supercop he'l become, his dressing senses sucks, quiet literally. It was only then he began to realise that all the compliments he was enduring off lately regarding his grooming, and not to forget those looks from female colleagues, was because of That one women who was apparently also the sole reason for a great deal of positive changes in his life recently, including his smile, None other than his Wifey, AVNi.!

His frustration was growing every passing second and if he began to note down the reasons for it, he will end up completing a whole file. He is having a very important meeting today in station and Avni is doing everything to make him late. She didnt switch on the Geaser, She didnt prepare for his bath, She forgot to choose his dress for the day, She fought with him, no actually they fought with each other, He has no idea where his Other essentials are kept including his wallet and most importantly His Wifey is nowhere near his eyesight since long.

Ever since she has entered his Life She has completely reshaped it for good and smoothened it. She has taken the charge completely, even before his Notice, so much that its hard to find even a socks without her. This Women is Proving to be Treacherous for His Normal functioning, or should i say the absence of her.

"AAVV..." Neil was about to call her but recent happenings flashed in his mind and he stopped midway, becoming all the way more frustrated.

"Bheema..!! BHEEMA.!" Neil's homicidal Voice echoed and Bheema instantly run for her life abandoning all her other works.

"Aapne bulaya Sir.?" Came bheema's tremulous voice from Door who was too frightened to enter.

"Tum ek bhi Kam Thik se Nahi karti.! Mere Kapde Kaha hai.? " Neil shrieked again on poor girl.

He was expecting Avni to come. Is she that much Adamant.? She wont even come once to check on Him? She knew He wont be at peace without seeing her still she will prefer her ego over Him? All this Questions were spinning his Head badly.

"But sir Sab taraf Kapde hi to Hai.!" Bheema spoke confusingly as her eyes wandered around the room which was a mess with clothes thrown all around.

Neil's eyes narrowed and became more red, his anger peaking by now. "Oh Avni, where are u? U forgot ur Stupid Hubby Today?" He released a long sigh thinking about Avni and tried to calm himself down.

Just then He felt Her Prescence and even without turning he can feel her standing near the door, as if somekind of connection or what they call it in romantic Novels, Ahh Telepathy, that she heard his pleas. A smile erupt on his lips which he effectively manage to hide.

"Uff Look at the Room.!" Avni's mind scream. A few minutes of delay and this Stupid man who Think of himself as some supercop turned Her Precious Room into some kind of battelfield, Unbelievable.!! Her mouth gaped unbelievably.

Neil caught her frowning face through the corner of his eyes.

"Ye Lo Issey Iron Kar ke Lao, Jaldi..!" Neil roared to Bheema handing her an Off white Trouser with Sky blue Shirt.

Avni glared first At Neil and then at bheema. She was out of words for this terrible combination of clothes.

"Bheema Ruko" She calmly said. She bent to wander her hands in pile of Clothes and Neil cant take his eyes off of her belly curves, ogling at them shamelessly. No doubt she is his only distraction. Finally she found A Navy blue shirt and handed it to bheema "Ye wali Shirt Le jao. Kuch logo ko Kuch bhi Pata nahi hota hai or Apne aap ko Bohot Intelligent Samajhte hai." She turned to Neil while throwing daggers through her eyes and words both.

"Bheema Tumhe pata hai Meri Watch or Wallet kaha Rakha hai.?" Neil asked looking towards Avni without paying any heeds to bheema..

"Bheema Tumhe nahi lagta Normal Log Apna Wallet Dressing Table ke Drawer me rakhte hai.? " Avni rebuked with equal fierceness folding her hands on her chest.

Bheema nod in a Yes before her eyes fell on Neil's muderous stare and she instantly nod a no. Poor girl was trapped today and was constantly cursing the Face she woke up to see, realising it was Her only she dropped the thought and Ran before they Kill her through their shooting glare.

Moments later, Neil got ready and was Combing his hair while his eyes were stone fixed on Avni through mirror. She was restlessly fliping pages of some random magazine Meanwhile stealing glances at Neil. She herself fail to pinpoint the exact time since it has become her routine to steal some moments from her morning kitchen chores only to be near him, have some hubby wifey chat with him, some harmless flirting and teasing session. She always runs back to her room with pretence of some or other work leaving behing Teasing Bebe and Mom. Today was no different, except for this unusual silence.

She got up sighing, went towards dressing table. Neil's eyes lit up as he saw her walking towards him. Just when Neil was about to hug her she bent down took her Cellphone off the charging clip, her most commonly used pretence to come back to him, and stomped out of room obviously unaware of Neil's action. Suddenly Neil's body felt abandoned without her warming hug and his lips were left craving for its daily dose of warmth. His morning was Deficient, unsatisfied and the day is only going to be long, so was Her.

**In Dining Table**

They were eating silently. Avneil looked everywhere except each other while Bebe and Shweta couldnt look anywhere except them. Both ladies shared some distraught looks and their fears only increased.

"Accha mom, Mai chalta hu Vaise hi late Hogya hu." Finally Neil broke the silence declaring his departure. Though he was referring to shweta but his eyes were fixated on Avni.

"Hein.?" Shweta could only manage to utter one word. She was surprised as usually its Avni whom he updates.

Avni flinched a bit, her hand stopped midway still she tried her best not to give any reaction. If it would have been any other day She would have instantly jumped off of her chair escorted him till his jeep stealthily pecked him on cheek and received one too, but not today.!!

Neil took the shortest of steps possible till door turning again and again to look back to her but seems like she was adamant to stick to her ego. His eyes yearned to see that usual smiling face of his wifey. He was left disheartened, disappointment driping through his eyes. For first time in ages he is forced to leave without a Goodbye kiss, something on which he is able to go through his day.

Bebe glared Shweta which meant they need some serious talking done later. Shweta noded.

"Bebe Vo Mujhe Maali kaka se kuch kaam hai, Mai abhi aai." Avni couldnt hold it for another moment and came up with best pretence to go out, something she mastered after falling madly in love with her husband. Without even waiting for their response she ran out. She knew she wont be in peace without having a look of him. Her hopes shattered as she met with his retreating figure from far.

**In Bebe's Room**

Both khanna ladies were pacing to and fro in worry.

"Shweta baat bohot badh gai hai. Ab hume hi kuch karna hoga. Mai apne baccho ke bich Ye Duria nahi dekh sakti." Bebe declared with a frown.

"Ha bebe aap sahi keh rahi hai. Lekin Aaj subah jo hua vo ek misunderstanding thi ye Hum un dono ko kaise samjhaenge.? Shweta spoke her fear. And both sat thinking.

**Flashback(Few hours Ago)**

"Bebe Doctor ne Aapki Medicine change ki hai. Unhone kaha hai Phle kuch dino tak aapko thode chakkar aaenge fir aap Adapt hojaaengi." Avni explained her while the wrinkles of worry stayed on her face.

"Avni beta Koi major issue to nahi hai na?" Shweta asked fearful.

"Koi baat nahi puttar Tumhari bebe bohot Strong hai. La de Dawai de." Bebe stated cherfully to allay their fears.

"Bebe are u sure? Mujhe ye kuch thik nahi lagra. I mean hum Doctor se fir se consult karenge or koi or medicine dene bolenge. Haina Mom?" To say Avni was concerned for her beloved bebe's health was an understatement.

"Uski koi Jarurt nahi hai. We will manage." Bebe explained.

As soon as bebe took medicine she felt dizzy and was about to trip when Neil came from jogging and run to her help. Avni and shweta were shocked beyond words. Neil made bebe comfortable on Couch.

"Ye ho kya raha hai Iss Ghar me.?Bebe ko Chakkar q aa rahe hai.? Bebe ne aabtak medicine nahi lie kya?" Neil shrieked at top of his lung.

"Aesa nahi hai Neil.." Avni tried to explain but was cut off in between.

"Bebe ki Responsibility Tumne li hai na Avni? How can u be so CARELESS towards her? Agar Unhe kuch hojata to?" Neil howled holding her arms and shaking her.

"Tillu, choti si baat thi. Meri baat to.." Shweta was also denied to complete her sentence.

"Choti si baat mom.?" He asked in disbelief. He turned to Avni " Tumhe MERI bebe or Unki Health Choti si baat lagti hai Avni? M ashamed." He continued screaming.

"MERI bebe.? What u mean by that Neil.? Bebe Meri kuch nahi lagti.? Tum aesa sochte ho mere bareme Mr Neil Khanna.?" Avni countered with equal rage.

She felt a crack in her heart by his accusations. This is excatly the family she has yerned for whole her life and her husband thinks she doesnt endure it. These people are the Jewels of her Treasure box which is priceless to her. How can he even think so.

Neil instantly regreted his words but seems like The arrow already left the bow, and Avni already left from place.

**End of Flashback**

"Madam Madona, Hume Ye Miscommunication Clear karna hi hoga varna Ye dono aese hi Muh fula Ke baithe Rahenge" Bebe said determined.

**Evening**

As clock conveyed the Time she was eagerly waiting for, Her Heart involuntarily pulled her towards Living room. There was no sign of Him. The main door became her favourite hang out site as she found herself tresspassing there after every 5-10 mint, almost restlessly. While her eyes remain darted at the door for the time interval when she was away.

"Itna Late hogya hai Neil abhi tak Nahi aaya.!" Avni started mumbling while fidgeting with her pallu.

"Kahi kuch problem me to nahi fass gaya.? Vo aese Gussa nahi nikalega. Usko pata hai mai uska wait kar rahi hongi. M sure There is some issue." Her mind exploded thinking about the range of all sorts of tiny to grave possiblities that can block him from coming back on time.

Finally Neil arrived, couple of hours late. Seeing his sound form was enough for Avni to ooze out her disquiet she was holding on since long. In such situation Her first Instinct always remains to run and engulf him but she decided against it.

Before Avni could recover from her pleasant happiness and decide on how to react, Bebe fired Neil with so many questions about his whereabouts to which he calmly answered "Jeep ka Tyre Puncture hogya tha. Nothing happened M fine" He was not willing to leave Avni's fearful eyes as if assuring her through eyes. And yes His assurance was all that she required to Set aside those unwelcomed furrows from her forhead which Neil hated to core. The next wonder happened when he saw little twitch around her lips who were mercilessly forced to stop from parting in a heartwarming smile by His Stubborn Wifey.

**Night**

Avneil were lying on bed facing opposite sides. Seems like sleep was also upset from them playing hide and seek, inspite of being thoroughly drained and tired. Something was unsettled inside, may be lacking. They desparately wanted to talk and clear out everything, they only knew how forcefully they have passed each second of day.

Neil turned to face Avni's back with pleading eyes "Kash Tumhe Samjha pata Avni, Maine Jo kaha vo Gusse me kaha. Bebe ke lie Mera Concern tha jisne Mujhe tumse aese baat Karne pe Majboor kia. Tum q Mujhe nahi Samajh pa rahi ho.?" A silent tear fell from corner of his eyes and he turned back.

At the exact moment Avni turned to face Neil's back with equal amout of hurt and longing " Kash Tum Samajh Pate Neil, Bebe Mom Papaji ye sab Sirf Tumhari Family Nahi hai. Ye sab mere bhi Apne hai. Mai bhi unse bohot pyaar karti hu or Unke matter me kabhi careless nahi ho sakti. Tumne Phli baar Mujhe Samajhne me Galti ki hai Neil." She silently rub away those fresh tears which were threatning to spill.

As Night grew darker their slumber get deeper. Neil tossed and Turned to face Avni. Moments later Avni turned to face Neil. They inched closer in sleep. Neil's one hand extended and automatically rested on the place meant of it i.e Her waist. He stirred and pulled her towards him. She crawled like a baby to place her head over his chest while he encircle his other hand around her protectively. After squirming a bit to acquire the best comfortable position, They slept entangled hugging each other, leaving their frowns behind and flashing a subconscious satisfying smile, just the way it should be.

No matter how lost they are, at the end they will find their ways back to each other, and will remain in the place where they belong, in each others Arms. Where they will find Their Peace, their sanity, their joy and Unconditional Love. Hardships can play its cruel game of pushing them away but it wont restrict them from bouncing back to each other with double intensity and force coz Their lies a strong invisible thread of PURE LOVE that binds them for ETERNITY.

A new morning awaits to be welcomed and embraced by their smiles and happiness..! Neil woke up first, adorning a heartfelt smile, only to find themselves completely entangled and engulfing into each other's embrace. Their legs interlaced in most intimate ways possible and his sole reason of existence sleeping peacfully in his arms fanning his neck with her warm breath. He wont mind spending his entire life watching her like this.

Avni fluttered her eyelids few times before getting completely awake only to see Her World admiring her contently with all the Love and affection in his eyes.!

"Good morning, Love.!" Neil spoke in most innocent sleepy voice of him and leaned to kiss on her forehead.

"Good morning.!" Avni happily received her share of love.

"Avni, I am.." Before Neil could complete Avni place her finger on his lips.

"Neil, Mai kal ka Din ek Bura Sapna Samajh ke bhula dena chahti hu." She spoke earnestly. In reply, Neil sighed and pulled her more closer.

And that was it. Not a single word of explanation was required, only their truest of love and deepest of understanding was more than enough. They remained snuggled to each other for quiet sometime. Neil travelled the distance between their lips and claim them in most sincere way. She responded passionately, afterall the dues from previous day were left unsetelled.!

Later, Avni was happily humming and cooking in kitchen while bebe and shweta just shared few confused stares.

Neil just entered then as their Answeres, saying " Avni, i cant find my file, do u mind sparing me a moment?" The naughty glint in his eyes never went unnoticed from the three Khanna women. Avni flushed while Bebe and Shweta need not to be told twice that they can happily drop their plans for their patchup which flooded their minds since Yesterday.!

The End.
