"Please please Bhaiya, man jaaiye na.." Rudy had been pleading since half an hour in front of Shivaay.

"No means no Rudy. Bado ko bilkul accha nagi lagega" Shivaay repeated his decision.

"Shivaay baby, man jao na. Please" Tia chipped as she entered his room with Anika behind. Looking at Anika, a plan popped up in his devil kind.

"Sure Tia. Agar tum keh rahi ho to we will" he said with a smile.

"Waah... Waaah... Bhaiya.. Yehi dosti yehi pyaar aur bich me aagayi Lady baba ki deewar" he turned his face while ShivOm chuckled at his cuteness and Anika too couldn't supress her chuckle.

"Shut up Rudra and stop calling me that rubbish name. Its high time that you start calling me Bhabhi" Tia uttered.

"Shaadi to hone dijiye LADY BABA." He focused on each word and she ran behind him.

"Mujhe nahi pata tha ki tu Tia ke ek baar kehne se hi man jayega." Om said.

"Its nothing like that Om."

"Kis baare me discussion ho rahi hai? I couldn't even make an idea." Anika finally spoke up

"Jaanke kya karna hai tumhe?" Shivaay's words irked her.

"She is the main person to know it na Shivaay.. Akhir use hi to sab planning karni hai" Om supported.

"Actually Rudy wanted ki ek ball night ho for the couples. The theme should be black and white" Shivaay said while Anika's eyes widen in shock.

"Black and white? Mujhe pata hai ki apko apni zindagi me rang nahi bharna lekin iska matlab ye to nahi ki aap dusro ki bhi zindagi black and white karenge" Anika almost screamed while Om giggled.

"Excuse me? This is my decision. And agar koi meri life me rang bharna hi nahi chahta to what can I do?" his words came in a mocking way for her.

"Tere words kisi ki or ishara kar rahe hai Shivaay." Om had a curious look.

"Shut up Om" Shivaay said

"Don't use Rudy wala dialogue for me" Om told and the trio laughed. Om left the room with an excuse and now, it was only Shivaay and Anika.

She had a disappointing look as Shivaay listened to Tia easily without even thinking once. It didn't take time to realize her situation.

"What happened Anika?" He asked innocently.

"Nothing. Main bas soch rahi thi ki koi insaan ka favorite color Black kese ho sakta hai" she said.

"Ho sakta hai. Abhi jo jal raha hai, wo bhi black color ka hi hai" he smirked.

"Kya.. Kyaa Jal ra...ha hai.?" she stammered.

"Kisi ka dil, may be" Shivaay replied

"Ok o.. Mai koi J Type nahi hun. Why would I be jealous? Do hell with you and your Tia" she narrowed her eyes and left immediately. He knew she is hiding something from him. Her eyes reflected her love for him and how much she hates me when he is around Tia.

"Anika didi, dekhiye mai kaisi lag rahi hun?" Soumya asked with a bright smile on her face.

"Ek dum wrestler jaisi" Rudy commented from behind.

"Kya Rudy.." Anika said and turned towards Soumya, "You are looking very cute and pretty as well"

"Thank you di aur jo dumble yaha pe khada hai, use please jaane dijiye. Mujhe aaj kisika murder nahi karna" Soumya said eyeing towards Rudra.

"Aap bhi ready ho jaiye Anika di" Rudy said.

"Mai? Mai attend nahi karne wali. I have no partner and moreover, I suck at dancing" Anika gave out an excuse.

"Tum nahi aaogi to I won't feel happy" they recognized the owner of the voice, it was Shivaay

Anika's orbs straightened and OmRu gave a teasing look.

"I mean itna kuch prepare karne ke baad to tumhe aana hi padega" Shivaay said

"Partner ki chinta mat kar Anika, itni khubsurat kudi ko koi to mil hi jayega" Dadi entered the scene wearing a gown, unlike her regular Indian Attire.

"Aww... Dadi, aap kitni beautiful lag rahi ho" Rudy hugged her.

"Mai beautiful hi hun. Chal ab Anika puttar ko tayyar bhi hona hai. Ja" she ordered.

Shivaay forgot to blink when his kanji eyes fell on the prettiest lady of the evening. NO, it wasn't Tia but Anika. 

She was claded in a white gown with perfect design on it. Can somebody be this much Angelic? 

She made her way to the group. The women were wearing white and the men were wearing a three piece black suit. The theme which Shivaay proposed.

"Aap bohut khubsurat lag rahi ho Anika di" Gauri exclaimed.

"Tumse kam Gauri, dekho Om apni aakhein hata hi nahi pa raha hai tumse" Anika teased while Gauri blushed. On the other hand, Shivaay was constantly staring at her. 

Tia entangled her hands on Shivaay's as he is her would be husband. Will it be?

"Baby, how am I looking?" Tia asked.

"Thik lag rahi ho" he answered.

"Agar tum aise hi unromantic rahe after marriage to kya hoga humare relation ka" Tia said it loud and Anika's face fell. Its never easy to see your lover with someone else that one is no other than his fiance .

"Shivaay jaise bhi hai, waise hi accept karo Tia and if your love has power to phir wo Shivaay ko zarur Ishqbaaz banayega" Om put his point.

'Mai already ishqbaaz ban chuka hun but not in love with my fiance.' Shivaay thought and looked towards Anika whose smile had faded after seeing him and Tia so close.

"Thanks Anika. Teri wajah se Black and whites bhi itna beautifuls lag raha hai. Maine bilkul expects hi nahi kiya tha" Pinky appreciated in her usual english.

"Expectations ke hissab se humesha sab kuch nahi hota Maa" Shivaay said with practically no emotion on his face.
