Hi, guys here goes the next chappy.

Happy reading 😍

--------------------------------

Finally everyone reached to their cottages, The four cottages were located at same place beside eachother.

Shivaay smiled at Anika and they walked inside, Anika slumped down on the couch in the hall.

"Ahh it's very tiring." She mumbled and closed her eyes, Shivaay smiled at her and sat down beside her.

"Hmm! so what you want to eat?" He asked her, she looked at him and patted her chin with her index finger thinking in a dramatic way.

"How about Pancakes with stuffed chocolate?" She said, he giggled and nodded making his way to the kitchen but stopped when he felt a soft tug on his hand, he turned to see Anika holding his wrist and raised his eyebrow, she stood up to his level.

"Go and take a bath, don't cook with this stinky clothes." she told with a disgust look on her face, he narrowed his eyes at her, she giggled and pulled him to the bed room.

"Wow it's beautiful." She exclaimed as she saw the room, she rushed to towards the door which was leading out to the beach.

She swirled and clapped her hands in excitement, "Khidkhitod khoobsurat!" She yelled making him close his ears, he smiled and stood at the doorstep leaning on the door, folding his hands to his chest staring at the bundle of cuteness in front of him.

"Shivaay, look at this place. Awe! I love it" she exclaimed and swirled, he chuckled at her cuteness.

"Ok then I will fresh up. You wait!" he told her and made his way to the washroom. After a relaxing bath he came out to find Anika no where in the room, he dried his hair with the towel and gelled it perfectly and went out looking for her.

He saw her sitting on the couch watching TV, tuning into the same serial which she watched few days back. "Omg again the same serial, I'm not gonna go there. I'll just make myself busy in cooking and by time I finish cooking, I wish the serial ends too." he mumbled and made his way to the kitchen.

"Wow! Kitchen is really good and I can easily adjust myself  here for cooking." he muttered as he saw the kitchen

He started preparing the batter when Anika came into the kitchen, "You're  cooking alone, let me help you." She told and stood beside him, he smiled at her.

"Are you not watching your serial?" he asked with a raised eyebrows. She let out a small chuckle.

"Actually, It ended by the time I heard sounds from the kitchen. Like a cat came into the kitchen and spoiled everything." she teased, he looked wide eyed at her.

"So you want to help me, Right??" he asked her, she nodded. "Okay, take some flour,eggs, sugar, milk and salt and prepare the batter" he said her, she nodded and started preparing the batter while he made himself busy in the juice.

He turned too see a figure covered with flour and a spatula in her hand, he was horrified by the mess she created in the kitchen, Flour spread all over the slab and eggs splattered there.

"God!" he screamed making her flinch at his pitch. She looked at him through her big eye lashes making puppy eyes, he face palmed himself and walked towards her and wiped the flour off her face.

"Anika go take a good shower. I clean up mess here" he said, she nodded and left from the kitchen and then he made himself busy in cleaning up the mess.

"So you don't know how to cook? Am I right?" he asked her as she entered the kitchen, she nodded her head in positive making him sigh.

"It's OK, that doesn't matter me that much because I know how to cook and that's enough for both of us to manage." he told and smiled at her, she smiled and sat in the chair placed near table.

"Hmm! Shivaay will you teach me how to cook?" she asked him with a puppy face, he smiled at her.

"okay, But when?" he asked her in return, "Teach me basics now. Later we will see about the complicated ones." She told him winking at him, he let out a small chuckle and served her a plate of pancakes.

"Wow it's amazing." she said licking the chocolate from her finger, he smiled and started eating his pancakes.

"Hmm! So what next?" he asked her, she looked at him plainly.

"Marriage is next week. That to its a Catholic wedding so we need to look about the declarations and place." she replied, he nodded and got up from his place with his plate but Anika snatched the plate from him.

"Maybe I'm not good at cooking but I'm good at cleaning." she claimed and walked to the wash basin to clean the plates, he smiled at her and dried up the plates and put it the stand.

Anika sat down on the couch beside Shivaay, he looked at her to find chocolates smeared at her lips. He smiled and leaned towards her making her breath hitch, he bought his thumb in contact to her lips and wiped off the chocolate, she closed her eyes at his gentle touch and shiver ran down her spine and butterflies in her stomach.

He stroked his thumb over her lips making it hard for her to control a moan, he smiled at the effect he created on her and pulled her closer making her eyes open wide.

"Anika, I have a beautiful place for the wedding." he whispered in husky voice making her look at him. He intertwined his fingers with her.

"Why can't we think of arranging the marriage in a beach?" he asked her, She smiled widely at him and hugged him.

"I was also thinking the same." she uttered and smiled at him.
