Ra: (smiles)....(rests her head on his shoulder)aaj bhi jab main yahan aati hu toh voh pura lamha mere saamne najaro ke saamne se gujar jaata hai.....

Sh: mere bhi....

FLASHBACK

"dhara diiiii" said raavi as she entered pandya niwas. Shiva gulped as he heard her because of nervousness. Raavi saw shiva sitting in hall checking the recipts. A first, her heart flattered seeing him but she composed herself.

Sh: (normal mood) aee chipkali....tu yahan kya kar rhi hai?...

Ra: kya baat hai?....tu aaj 'chal nikal yahan se' lagna kaise bhul gya?......hn?.....(expectantly) tune dushmani khatam kar di kya?....(looks him with curiousity)

Sh: 😳😳.....k-ky-kya bole jaa rahi hai tu?.....jis kaam ke liye aayi vo bata na.....

Ra: dhara di se milna hai....

Sh: koi nhi hai ghar pe mere aur maa ke alawa

Ra: ache.....voh ye..(forwards a tiffin)...gajar ka halwa banaya tha maine....vahi dene aayi thi.....

Shiva's mouth started watering as he heard of gajar halwa. He knew tha his chipkali had prefect hand when it comes to gajar ka halwa. Raavi could sense shiva's eagerness.

Ra: (forwards him the box) taste karke bata......

Sh: (faking anger) aee.....tere haath ka halwa khaau......marna nhi hai mujhe, samjhi?.....

Raavi knew that he was lying. She internally smirked. Just then suman called dhara as she didn't know that she was out.

Ra: (teasingly smiles) samjhi......ye na main yahan hi rakh rhi hu.....kaunsa tu khayega....jab di aaye na toh unhe de dena.....main kaki ko dekh ke aati hu....hmm....

Saying this raavi moved toward suman's room but not before turning to find shiva looking the halwa box intently.

Ra: (in mind) aaj ghar pe koi nhi hai.....aaj toh main tujhe baat karke rahungi.....jab tak tujhe bata nhi deti tab tak dil ko chain nhi aayega....

As raavi went inside suman's room, shiva grabed the box and ran to the kitchen. he opened the box and was welcomed with delicious aroma. 'uff this will make dead me' thought shiva. Shiva had his first bite and was at 7th cloud.

Sh: (to himself) kuch bhi kaho...chipkali ke haatho me sawad toh bahut hai....maja aa gya.......aaj raavi se baat karke rahunga.....ghr pe koi hai bhi nhi....uska jo bhi jawab ho....main aaj hi apne dil ki baat bol dunga.....

Saying this he smiled and went back to the delicious halwa.

It has been 5 days since shivi realized their feeling. They tried to talk about it but either someone interrupted the talk or they themselves ended up bantering. They were too scared that what if the other didn't had the mutual feelings, what if they end up losing each other as frenmies also. Both tried to get what the other one is thinking. But both had been unsuccessful at this.

after sometime, raavi came from suman's room and went towarss kitchen as she didn't find shiva in hall. There, she saw shiva enjoying the halwa.

Ra: (standing at the door of kitchen) acha bana hai na......

Shiva flinched at her voice. he gulped as he knew that now chipkali won't stop. Raavi went inside and saw the empty vessel in his hand.

Ra: (shocked) tu pura khaa gya......abhi toh bol rha tha nhi khaunga.....(teasing) lagta hai kuch jayada hi pasand aa gya......

Sh: aee....aisa kuch nhi hai.....bas voh..mujhe voh.....mujhse bhook lagi thi......

Ra: bhook lagi thi...hmmm....bhook lagi thi.....(controlling his laugh)

Shiva glared and went to sink to keep the box.

Both went outside the hall. An awkward silence was b/t them since 2-3 mins. Both wanted to intiate the talk but how, they didn't know.

Sh: (breaking silence) maa ne kyun bulaya tha...ho gya unka kaam....

Ra: hn voh kaaki ko dawai chahiye thi....ussi ke liye bola tha....

Sh: acha

A few moments later

Shivi: mujhe tere se baat....

Both sighs...

Shivi: phele tu-

This time both chuckled

Ra: tu bol pehle....bas ladna nhi....

Sh: (glares her)......(then think that it's important to talk)....vo mujhe keh..kehna tha ki..ki main...voh main..mujhe ye kehna hai ki..main voh...tujhe...voh.....

Ra: (rolling her eyes) kya bol rha hai shiva.....main...voh ...main...voh.....sahi se bolna......

Sh: aree bol raha hu time lagta hai......main voh ye bol rha tha ki...ki main voh..mujhe...

Suddenly, both heard sound of something falling from suman's room. They both rushed to suman's room. There, they found suman struggling to breathe. Her breath was heaving continuously. Shiva raavi rushed to her trying to inspect the problem. Raavi tried to make her drink water and rubeed her palm while shiva called up doctor and gaura. After sometime, doctor and gaura came. Krish also came back from college by then. Doctor gave suman an injection to stablise her condition.

Doc: Mr & mrs pandya(gaura)....aap log itne careless kaise ho sakte ho......maine aapko pehle hi bataya tha ki inki kisi bhi time koi dawai miss hui toh inke liye jaan lewa ho sakta hai.......

Gaura: *confused about when did suman took her medicine*

Doc: khair next time dhyaan rakhiye ga....main chalta hu

Suman was half conscious. After listening to doctor, shiva recalled that raavi was the one who gave suman her medicine. Then, what. His anger reached to the highest altitude of the sky. Without saying anything, he held raavi's wrist tightly and dragged her to the hall. Gaura confused at this followed while krish stayed with suman.

In hall,

Ra: shiva haath chod dard ho rha hai....

Sh: (pulls her closer holding her wrist) kaise kar sakti hai tu aisa.....hn.....sharam nhi aayi tujhe..

Ra: *confused*

Sh: (hurt) tu...tu maa ki jaan lena chahti thi....

Dh: (angrily) shiva....kya bole ja rha hai?....

Ra: *shocked*

Sh: sahi bol rha hu Bhabhi.....maa ko dawaiyaan isne di thi......(pointing towards her angrily)

Gaura: *looks at raavi*

Ra: (reasoning herself) hn kaki ne mujhse dawai maangi thi par-

Sh: par kya?(shouting)....kya par......bol....tu kya bolegi.....ye uss maami ne bola hoga na 'ki jab mauka mile maa ko'......sharam nhi aayi tujhe raavi.....maa tujhe beti jaise pyaar karti aur tune.....(raavi was shocked and numb...gaura were also shocked)....aaj tune saabit kar diya ki tu maami ki hi parvarish hai.....jisse sirf dukh dena aata.....10 saal pehle ussne mujhe se mere papa cheen liye aur aaj tu meri maa cheen leti....aree main bhi kisse bol rha hu...jis ke khud ke maa-papa nhi hai, khudki family nhi vo kya samjhe gi unki ehmiyat..

"shiva" shouted dhara as she made him turn towards her and raised her hand to hit him but stopped midway herself. Gautum closed his eyes feeling the intensity of words shiva spoke. Raavi stood numb there with her tears streming down.
