******************************

      Annika adjusted pleats of her new yellow colored designer embroidery saree for the last time looking in the mirror. When she was satisfied with her look she pinned it up and looked herself in the mirror.

"This saree is soo beautiful but very heavy and costly. How many times I denied to take it but Pinky and Jhanvi aunty, they blackmailed me and ordered me to wear it tonight. But it's looking awkward. Today's party is for Shakti uncle and Pinky aunty as it's their anniversary today but looking at me people will think that this party is for me only. "

      She said looking at herself.

"But promise is a promise I can't break their hearts."

      She smiled a bit. Now a days Oberoi family is just like her own family to her more than that actually. Two months before Sahil went to boarding school but she never felt alone in these two months. Oberoi family gave her the love which she was craving from her childhood. Now her everyday start with them and end with them only. And they also treat her as the member of their family.

      Annika went to the cupboard and took one jewellery box from it.

"Prinku gave this and asked me to wear this with this saree. Don't know what is wrong with all Oberoi ladies, from last week they are instructing me what and how to wear for tonight's party and all."

      She smiled and came to the mirror with those heavy but royal earrings and one neckpiece. She pickup that earring.

"Shivaay will love it or not?"

      She asked looking at that earring and then blushed hard and her cheeks were all red now by just mention of his name. She looked at the mirror and blushed more looking at her red face. But soon composed herself and tried to wear that earring. When she was busy in doing so the doorbell rang. Annika kept that earring on the table and rushed to the door. She opened it and her cheeks turned to deepest shade of red now. As the one who running in her mind 24*7 was standing there in a black tuxedo looking hot and handsome as always.

"Liked what you saw?"

      Shivaay asked raising his right eyebrow and Annika came out of her dream land. She turned her gaze.

"I..... I was just surprised to see you here. Nothing else."

      She managed to say still blushing. Shivaay smilingly entered into the house and came near her. She gulped hard and stood their holding the door by one hand. He came dangerously close to her and leaned to her ear.

"Lier....."

      He slowly whispered in her ears in that process his lips touched her ears and then stood up as if nothing happened. Annika was shocked by this act of him. She looked at him and he was looking at his phone some distance away from her as if nothing happened.

"What??"

      He asked looking at her. She nodded in no.

"I would love to drink some cold water."

      Shivaay said casually. Annika was still in shock state. Shivaay snapped his fingers in front of her.

"Annika...are you fine? What happened?"

      He asked and Annika came back from the shock state and nodded in no.

"N...nothing. I will get you some water."

      She said and hurriedly left from there. Shivaay looked at her from behind and chuckled.

"I just love her. The way she blushed na, mann krta hai aise hi use tease krte rahu mein."

      He said to himself and then remembered what happened in past two months. He came that day to her to give her company as she was alone and not well and decided to propose her. But to his surprise she proposed him. Yeah it was indirect proposal and she said all that in her sleep but Shivaay knew she was saying the truth only. That day he was so happy and so all Oberoi family too. But Shivaay told them don't talk about it to Annika let's see if she proposed him again. But to his disappointment she didn't propose him in next one month. He was angry now as he tried many ways to make her confess, sometimes by teasing her, sometimes just by his touches, sometimes by his words but she used to blush only. So family members told him that he have to propose her as she was shy to confess. Pinky suggest him to propose her on her and Shakti's anniversary which was in next one month and all agreed to that. Shivaay also agreed still he wants her to confess first so he continues his atrangi ways to make her confess.

      Shivaay came back from his thoughts when he heard some voice from kitchen. He ran to the kitchen and saw the glass fell from her hand. Shivaay smiled and came to her.

"What happened?"

      Shivaay asked holding her hand lovingly and Annika was again shocked.

"K...kuch nhi"

"Ok. I will get water by myself. You go and get ready. I want you to look best for tonight's party."

      Shivaay said now holding her waist by one hand and looking straight in her eyes. She turned her gaze tried to remove his hand from her waist.

"O...ok. I am going."

      She said but he didn't remove his hand.

"Go.... What happened? Go and come back soon. We are late."

      Shivaay said holding her tightly by waist and pulled her close. She looked at him and then at his hand.

"Woh.....woh....."

"What? What you want to say? We will talk later. First you go and get ready"

      He said now making some patterns on her bare waist. She closed her eyes at this proximity.

"Shivaay....."

      She want to shout but came as whisper. He smiled.

"Yes Annika....."

      He said in his husky voice coming close to her.

"L...leave me."

      She said her eyes were still closed. Shivaay smiled looking at her tomato red face.

"Leave you? But when I held you?"

      He said moving back and she opened her eyes and looked at her waist. His hand was not there. She looked at him.

"What??"

      He asked in normal tone.

"N.....nothing."

      She said and ran from there. Shivaay smiled at her.

"Maan jao na Annika. Say it na... It's too much now."

      He said before going behind her. Annika went to her room and looked at her red face in mirror. She blushed again but composed herself when she saw time. She decided to get ready fast. Soon Shivaay came there. She looked at him in mirror and he just smiled and stood there leaning against wall. Annika started breathing heavily as she knew he was looking at her without blinking his eyes but still she composed herself as Pinky called her asking her to come soon.

      Soon she was ready. She was looking at the mirror and Shivaay was just behind her now. He was the one who helped her getting ready as she was just standing there unable to do something as his constant gaze was on her. So finally he came to her and helped her with her jewellery and other things.

      Now both were looking at each other in the mirror. Shivaay placed his hands on her shoulders.

"Perfect."

      He said looking at their reflection in the mirror and she smiled looking down.

Oberoi Mansion,

      Soon they came to Oberoi Mansion and party started. Everyone was praising Annika for her arrangements and for her look too. She was just smiling awkwardly and blushing all the time as she knew he was looking at her only. She tried to avoid him but whenever she went he came behind so she stopped trying and tried to concentrate on other things.

      She was busy talking with some servents asking them to serve food once Shakti and Pinky cut the cake. She was instructing them about some food items when she heard his loud voice. She turned to see and saw him on the stage talking on the mike. She was confused.

"What he is doing? He only said no one will give speech and all. We will just cut cake and enjoy. Then why he is there on the stage? Let me check what's wrong."

      She said to herself walking to other guests who were now listening to Shivaay as he asked them to come there. Annika went and stood beside Pinky and daadi.

"Pinky aunty what's going on?"

      She asked Pinky and Pinky gave an ear to ear smile.

"Patience my dear patience. You will get to know it soon. Just concentrate on what he is going to say." 

      Pinky said patting on Annika's shoulder and Annika was confused. She looked at daadi.

"Billu is looking so good hai na Pinky? Uski nazar utarni chahiye."

      Daadi said to Pinky on which Pinky replied,

"Wait, mein function ke baad dono ki saath me utarungi."

      Annika was more confused now.

"Dono? Kon dono?"

      She asked herself but daadi and Pinky heard it.

"Shshhhh look at him and listen what he want to say."

      Daadi said turning Annika's face to the stage where Shivaay was standing. She looked at him. Indeed he was looking not only good but most handsome man today. She smiled when he started talking.

"Hello guys, first of all thank you so much for coming here. And mom dad happy anniversary to both of you. You both are bestest parents anyone could have. Thank you so much for all which you gave me. I promise I will never forget what you taught me and will walk on that path only."

      Shivaay said looking at his parents and Annika looked at Pinky with teary eyed. Pinky was crying too. Annika side hugged her and comfort her. Shivaay continued,

"So this is the best day for my parents. So I decided I will take this new step of my life today."

      He said looking at Annika first and then at others.

"First step? About what?"

      Annika asked herself and again looked at Shivaay.

"When my marriage with Tia broke before it took place, you guys questioned me that when I will marry again? If yes then when?"

      Shivaay said looking at all media people and something broke inside Annika's heart. The khidkitod smile which was playing on her lips from the moment she came here was lost now. Shivaay noticed this change and smiled.

"So I am very happy to share this news with you that I am going to marry soon."

      Shivaay said looking at Annika who was looking down. But as soon as she heard it she looked up and Shivaay turned his gaze to others.

      All media reporters started their questions like who was she? When did this happen? When you are getting married? It's a love marriage or arrange? It's marriage or any business deal? These and so many other questions. Shivaay smiled before replying,

"If you give me chance then only I will be able to say the details right?"

      He asked and all stopped.

"So where was I? Marriage. Yeah I am getting married soon very soon."

      Shivaay said looking at Annika who was looking at the ground. Shivaay knew what she was thinking.

"P..... Pinky aunty I will go and see dinner arrangements till then."

      She said in broken voice and turned to go before Pinky says something. But Pinky held her hand from behind.

"Where are you going? Listen the good news first. I am so happy finally I will get daughter in law of my and Shivaay's choice."

      Pinky said and tears fell from Annika's eyes without her notice. Daadi noticed it and looked at Shivaay who was looking at Annika only.

"Annika puttar. Stop here ok. Kaam baad me dekhenge."

      Daadi ordered and Annika nodded in yes. She was looking at the ground unable to look at him.

"So, I am getting married soon. And to the one who is just perfect and compatible for me in every way."

      Shivaay said looking at Annika and she just wanted to ran away from this place and wanted to cry loudly. She loves him, very much. But she knew they can't be together as there are many differences between them and their status. Still she was hoping may be he has some feelings for her because of all his teasings and his behavior with her. But today when he said that girl is perfect and compatible for him in every way she knew she was not the one. And that hurt the most. She was ready for this that may be someday Pinky aunty will force him to marry one rich girl but it's all happening so soon and main point by his own wish.

"Kya hua Annika beta?"

      Pinky asked and Annika controlled her tears. She wiped them quickly before looking at Pinky.

"Nothing aunty. I..... I am fine."

      Annika said and Pinky smiled. Annika looked at Shivaay once and then looked down.

"So Mr. Oberoi who is that lucky girl?"

      One reporter ask.

"Lucky girl? No no she is not lucky I am the one who is lucky as I am going to marry her."

      Shivaay said looking at Annika who was looking down trying to control her tears.

"Ok. But who is she? What's her name? What's her surname? Is she daughter of any successful businessman?"

      One reporter asked and Shivaay smiled widely.

"She is much more than these things. She is the best in everything. She is not best because of family and lineage but she herself is a very strong, independent and smart girl. That's why I loves her so much."

      Shivaay said and Annika looked up.

"L...loves her??"

      She asked herself.

"Means he is in love with someone. And here I....."

      She couldn't able to complete as she sobbed. Pinky and daadi were looking at her. Pinky signalled Shivaay to stop this drama now but he just smirked and smiled.

"That's great Mr. Oberoi. But what's her name? Where is she?"

     Asked another reporter.

"She is here only. In this party. I invited her here to introduce her to the world as my wife."

      Shivaay asked and all looked around. Annika was startled by this. That means his future wife is here in this party? And here she was dreaming about their future together.

"Ok ok now please be quiet. I will call her here on stage then you will get your answers."

      Shivaay said and everyone stopped talking. Annika closed her eyes trying to control her tears. She don't want to hear that name too. So she turned to go from there.

"Annika....."

      Pinky tried to say but Annika stopped her in between.

"Aunty...I have to go"

      She said and she started walking to the exit. But stopped in her tracks as she heard his voice,

"She is here..... Annika... My would be wife"

       Annika heard that and shock would be understatement  her. She just turned without her notice and saw he was looking at her with his charming smile. All reporters and cameras turned to her and focused on her. Annika looked down as all cameras focused on her.

"Annika come here....."

      Came Shivaay's voice. Annika looked up at him. Tears started falling from her eyes but she didn't move from her place. She was too shocked too react. Shivaay smiled and came down from stage and walked towards her. He came and stood before her. She was looking at him when he came down from that stage. Now he is so close so she looked in his eyes and she saw the same feelings, same love for her in those eyes. But still she was confused.

"Annika....."

      He lovingly said. But she didn't respond. Shivaay smiled and held her hand.

"Let's go....."

      Shivaay said and dragged her with him to the stage. She was still in shock so went with him without any protest. They both came on stage and all clapped for them. OmRu and Prinku whistled loudly.

"So guys, meet my would be wife, Annika."

      Shivaay said and Annika looked at him. He too looked at her and smile.

"Shi..... Shivaay this....."

      She was not able to complete. He chuckled. Before he says something reporters started their questions again. So Shivaay looked at them and said,

"Today I just want to give this good news to you. Not more details please. You will get to know them soon. And you will get official invitation too. So that's it for today. Haaa but if you want you can take our pictures."

      He said and then looked at Annika. He made her held his waist by her right hand and he did the same with his left hand pulling her close. And ask her to look at media. Media started clicking their many pictures and Annika was looking at him.  Her heart was beating so fast that he can also able to hear her heartbeats.

"Annika look at the cameras..."

      Shivaay whispered in her ears pulling her more close. She was sure that this is one dream and she will wake up soon.

"This is not any dream. This is our reality. Our beautiful reality."

      He said and she was surprised. Soon Shivaay asked reporters to stop and called Pinky and Shakti on stage to celebrate their anniversary. Soon they cut cake and feed everyone. All this while Shivaay didn't left Annika and she was just looking at him with many expressions on her face and with many questions in her mind. Soon Shivaay had to left her as all Oberoi family came to her to congratulate her to hug her. Annika was still in shock and didn't say anything to them. But they were so happy and Pinky and daadi were so emotional at that moment and Jhanvi too.

      Soon party ends and guests left. Shivaay came to daadi and whispered something in her ear. On which daadi smiled and nodded. Shivaay hugged her happily and came to Annika.

"Let's go"

      He forwarded his hand. She looked at him and then others.

"Jao jao. We are not looking at you."

      Rudra teased and all laughed.

"Shut up Rudra. And we don't have problem if anyone sees us. We are now officially together. So we can roam around openly, Kyu Annika?"

      Shivaay asked taking her hand in his. Annika just looked down and she was blushing again.

"Chalo....."

      Shivaay said again and they both left from there and came to Shivaay's room. They both entered and Shivaay closed the door. Annika looked at the door and then at him shocked. Shivaay smirked coming close to her. She moved back but he was able to hold her in his arms.

"Why you were crying?"

      Shivaay asked caressing her cheeks. Annika's breath got hitched by this act of him. She tried to come out of his hold but in return he held her tightly.

"Tell me why you were crying? You thought I was talking about someone else?"

     Shivaay asked and she looked at him.

"Come on Annika. How can you think something like that haa? I promised you na? And Shivaay kabhi koi promise nhi todta."

      Shivaay said pulling her close and she looked at him confused.

"Promise??"

      Annika asked. Finally she able to speak one word at least. She was in shock that she didn't utter a single word after he take her name in front of the reporters and guests. Shivaay smiled tucking her hairs behind her ear.

"Yeah promise. Not only one but many. I promised you many things right? So how can I go and get marry with any other girl?"

      Shivaay asked and she was more confused.

"I don't know what you are talking about. And...and why you did that in front of all?"

      She finally asked. Shivaay smiled and made her sit on the bed and sat in front of her on the floor on his knees. She looked at him shocked.

"Shivaay yeh....."

"Shshhhh listen to me."

      Shivaay cutted her in between and held her both hands in his and directly looked into her eyes.

"Annika....."

"Hmm....."

      She replied looking into his blue eyes.

"I will make food for you everyday. I will take care of you everyday, every minute and every second. If you will not listen to me or will not take care of yourself na I will scold you, I will get angry on you. But I promise I will never leave you. Whatever be the reason but I will always stand with you in every situation. And just like you I also can't live without you. And the last, I will love you just like you do. No no I will love you more."

      Shivaay said each n every word slowly and Annika's eyes widen in shock. She remembered what happened exactly two months before. When he came to her house with food and medicines as she was not well. Next day when she woke up he was sitting near her holding her hand and was sleeping in uncomfortable position.

       She was confused about all things. So she tried to remember and remembered all things she said to him last night. She was too shocked to react. She removed her hand from his and left from there. She was too scared to face him after that. But she had to face him someday. But she was surprised after she faced him as he didn't even mention about that night. In fact she heard him telling daadi that he came back to Oberoi Mansion before she slept. So Annika thought may be she saw a dream a beautiful dream.

      But now when he said exact those things which she said in her sleep. She looked at him and he smiled getting up from floor and sitting beside her.

"I will do all those things, I promised you that day only right?"

      Shivaay said cupping her face on his hands and tears formed in her eyes. He wiped them before they fell on her beautiful face.

"Don't cry. You don't look good when you cry."

      Shivaay said softly and she smiled through her tears.

"You.....you remember?"

       Shivaay smiled.

"Of course sweetheart. And Pinky promise I will do all these things for our whole life but....."

      Shivaay stopped.

"But??"

      Annika asked.

"Say it just once that you love me just like I do."

      Shivaay whispered and she blushed and hide her face in his chest.
