Happy reading 😍

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

After spending some time near the pool,  both of them sat on the couch watching TV.

"Shivaay please switch the channel to Star plus." she pestered popping the popcorn into her mouth, he nodded and switched the channel.

She squealed in happiness as she saw her favorite serial showing up on TV, "You know Shivaay, this is my favorite serial and this the third time I'm watching this episode cause, yesterday I watched it in TV and then in my mobile and now I'm watching the repeated telecast."  She exclaimed and  his jaw dropped.

"Anika do you watch serials too?" He questioned her and she bobbed her head in agreement.

While Anika was busy watching the TV, Shivaay was busy admiring her then he noticed that tears welled up in her eyes.

Panicking, he cupped her face, "Anika what happened to you? Are you okay, is something wrong? Are you uncomfortable?" he asked, panicked. She pointed to towards the TV screen.

"Shivaay, Why should true love always needed to be proved by separation of the couple?" she sobbed and he face palmed himself.

"Anika are you serious? You're crying for me those virtual characters. Anika don't be silly, your acting crazy as well as stupid" he blurted out, not sensing the storm ahead, hearing this Anika stood up from the couch.

"Shivaay it's not some random virtual characters, it's a story which revolves around a couple. And you called me crazy huh?! Keep it in mind I'm not crazy. And how dare you call me a stupid?" she scowled making him flinch at her pitch.

"Anika, I can understand its very heart wrenching to see some one getting separated. I'm sorry. I'm really so sorry anika." he pacified her as he pulled her down on the couch wrapping his hands around her shoulder.

He caressed her hair while and kissed her forehead surprising her but she was busy sobbing, watching the TV. She hid her face in his chest and was crying while he had a hard time pacifying her.

After the serial has ended he closed his eyes and sighed mentally thanking the god and glanced at her who was still sobbing, he kept caressing her hair playing with her soft locks while she slept in his embrace.

As he noticed that she slept in his embrace, he saw her sleeping peacefully but her tear tricken face and swollen eyes stabbed his heart.

"I never understand why girls cry for serials too"

Picking her up in his arms, he carried her to his bedroom and laid her on the bed then he left the room after kissing her forehead.

After a while, she woke up from a deep sleep and noticed some unfamiliar surroundings but then realised that this is shivaay's room.

"Anika literally, you're a big stupid. Why did you get mad at him for such a small reason. What might he be thinking of you. You're really crazy." she mentally slapped her herself and got down the bed and walked down stairs to find him chatting with his brothers.

"Hi guys! I'm sorry I just dozed off to sleep." She lowered her gaze, grabbing  everyone's attention.

"Oh! Don't worry di. Bhaiya told us what happened." Rudra said making anika's eyes go wide.

"What shivaay? Why did you tell  them? now they will be teasing me." she yelled making him close his ears.

"Meri maa! Please  low down your voice." he said while she sat on the couch, she glared at him but then she heard her stomach grumbling and lowered her gaze as she was embarrassed.

  "Don't worry, I'll  get something for you. " he uttered, laughing at her and left to the kitchen.

"Di, should I tell you a secret?" Rudra wishpered in Anika ears while she nodded her head.

"Don't be embarrassed, cause I'll also watch TV serials" he continued and winked at her making her smile broadly.

"So dii from now, lets watch serials together." he said and raised his hand for a hifi while she nodded and they shared a hifi.

"What is cooking in your devilish brains?" shivaay asked as he came out from the kitchen with a some snacks.

"Nothing!" rudra and Anika shrugged their shoulders and Anika started digging into her snacks while shivaay was surprised by her new antic.

"Ok now I'll leave. Mama and papa are waiting and shivaay meet me in the office tomorrow we will talk to dad." Anika said while picking her bag up.

"Anika I'll drop you." shivaay said but anika cut him off in between, "No shivaay actually, Mama sent the car, so I should leave."  she waved a bye and earned a beary hug from rudra. They bid bye and Anika left.
