After One and Half Year

Aap sub chouk gaye honge ki kahani mein itna lamba gap kaha se aagaya, kisne fast forward kardi story. Ismein writer ki koyi galti nahi he, Maine hi....
Ahaa... Main khudko toh introduce karna hi bhool gaya,
I'm Rajveer Singh Shekhavat, husband of Naina Ahh Singh Shekhavat

Aree zyada sochoo math ki kyaa he yeh sub. Mere jaisa maundhari bolne laga. Mere zindagi ke baarein mein likhe jaaraha he toh bolna toh banta he na.... Toh chaliye, kahani ke ander jaate he...
of course Nandu ke saath😉

👼👼👼👼👼👼👼👼👼👼👼👼👼👼👼👼👼👼

Saalon phehle meri thami zindagi shuru huyi thi, uski ek muskan ke saath....
lekin tab yakeenan yeh nahi socha tha ki mere zindagi ki har subhah ki shuruvat usiki kaale lehrati zulfonse shuru hoke, bandh pyaare ankhonko gusarke, honto tale ubhar rahi muskaan ko chute jaayegi...
Mere har subah Meri Naina ke saath shuru hogii...

His words flowed like a free wave of ocean hitting its well known destination shore, as his finger tips got engrossed with her long black curls, lips took the liberty of kissing those closed eyes and his heart peeked at her blossoming smile.

She was peacefully sleeping in his arms, resting her head on his chest and caging his legs with hers. Overall they were resembling a set of kangaroo.
He caressed her hairs with love and corrected her kurti shutting down the window to her assets.
With great difficulty, he shifted her to bed and wrapped the thick blanket around her, kept two pillows, such that she believes he is near her...

Done with his first baby,
His eyes instantly hopped to the corner side of the room, decorated with tons of toys and soft clothes. He tiptoed to see whether his bundle of joy is waiting for him or not. A breeze of peace knocked his heart as he saw his baby is still in a deep slumber not caring to shake her hands and legs in air with a glimpse of his face...

He slowly took his jogging clothes and left the room, not before turning off all the alarms and closing the curtains letting his lifelines sleep...

Bahot kuch badal gaya tha humare beech, jab Naina ne mujhe chuna tha... Mujhe toh maalom tha ki use mujhse pyaar hogaya he... Main nahi thodna chahta tha uske dil naa hi mera dil dobara tootne tayyar tha. Use joh pyaar ki zaroorat thi, Naina ne dii...
Aakhir usika toh tha woh...

Usne mere ateet ko mujhse bandh ke rakha. Mere zindagi ke kachche dhagonko pakke karti gayi, uljhe rishtonko suljane lagi. Mujhe meri hi Maa se mujhe firse milaya. Himmat dii ki apni ander dabe huye shikhayatonko unke saamne rakh sakun..

His legs slowed down reaching for a stop...

Good Morning, Ananya...
Phehle Kaan pakadke sorry kehna chahta hu tumse. Haan baba, 3 mahine hogaye tumse mile bina. Isiliye toh maafi maang raha hu. Shona ke aane ke pata hi nahi chalta ki subhah konsi he aur raat konsi.

Agar tumne mujhe maaf kardiya toh aage badhe?

Aaj na mere life ke subse important day he. Main yaha tumhare best wishes lene aaya hu. Tum ho na mere saath?

Of course hogi hi. Tumhara fattu Rajveer, kuch mahan kaam karne jaaraha.

Aur tum Ranya....
Dada loves you..

He placed a little rose bud on the tomb,

Bus tumhari Mumma ko attention dete dete kabhi kabhi bhool jaata hu ki tum bhi humare beech ho.

Ab dono milke ek baar all the best boldo mujhe, bahot se kaam baaki he joh woh gadha Naveen ne fehlake rakhdiya hoga mere liye ....

Naveen smacking his head,
" Wahh bete, tum hero aur main gadha??..."
Suddenly he appeared from behind startling his Veeru

Rajveer - " Tu yaha??..."
He asked with astonishment

Naveen - " Tu jaha main waha... Subhah subhah tujhe choro jaise apne hi ghar se nikalte huye dekha toh socha aaj tere extra marital affair ko pakad hi loon... Kyaa he yeh sub??..."
He asked getting ready to break Veeru's bone

Rajveer with small smile,
" Hello toh bolo.
Yeh he Ananya aur uske saath he Ranya..."

Naveen looked at Rajveer and then at the grave,
" Tune yaha Ananya ko...."
He got emotional seeing his friend's last symbol there...

Rajveer - " Ananya humesha chahti thi ki woh mere kareeb rahe. Mera man nahin hua ki use Ganga ghat chodke aavun... "
His eyes turned moist and he sat on the ground touching the flowers boomed on it

Naveen - " Aur Ranya??.. yeh kaun he??..."
He asked still knowing the answer to it. Afterall Raj and Ananya named their home in Delhi as Ranya....

Rajveer - " Humari beti. Tumhe pata he Navu, usne na un dibbo mein ladke ke nishani chodke gayi thi, boots, kapde saare ladke ke. Jhooti he na woh, meri Ranya ko kabhi mujhse milaya hi nahi.. Woh na mujhse bahot jala karti thi..."
He complained like a small kid...

Naveen - " I second you. "
He too joined mourning for the loss they suffered

Rajveer wiping his tears,
" isiliye maine ispe Ananya ke saath Ranya ka naam likdi he....."
He again smiled at end...

Naveen - " Naina jaanti he yeh sub??..."
He asked worrying about his baby sister.

Rajveer - " usine idea diya tha ki hum yaha phoolonke paude lagaye. Taaki Ananya ke khushboo mujh tak pahunchti rahe...."
He watered those plants with care

Naveen - " Tu yaha roz aata he??..."
He interrogated following the rules of his duty

Rajveer - " aaj kal nahi. "
He kept the answer short...knowing what's going on inside his Yaar's mind

Naveen - " do you miss her??..."
He again questioned

Rajveer sparing him a look,
" Do you miss her???..."

Naveen in a obvious tone replied,
" Yes. Woh meri dost thi Raj. Of course, I miss her...."

Rajveer - " woh meri kyaa he yeh jaan ne ke baad bhi tu mujhse sawal kar raha he??..."

Naveen - " Main toh bus tumhe samajhne ki koshish kar raha tha. Tu kuch bolta hi nahi he khudke baarein mein toh... "
He tried to explain his point

Rajveer cutting his words,
" Nahi miss karta main Anu ko. Nahi karta... meri zindagi ki khoobsoorat lamhe uske saath jeekar bhi main use miss nahi karta Naveen.. kyunki chah kar bhi main Anu ko dobara paa nahi sakta.
Aur woh chaahat mujhmein he hi nahi ki main firse Ananya ka Rajveer ban jaavun..."

He opened the door of his heart, not hesitating what his wife's brother may think. For him, Naveen is his pillar of strength and support leaning to whom he could let out all his worries and sob freely.

Naveen - " Lekin woh mohabbat joh Ananya se he woh mit ke bhi nahi mit thi... Hain na??...

Kisne kaha ki ishq sirf ek hi baar hota he.. yaa fir ek hi insaan se. Pyaar toh usase ho hi jaata he joh humse suchche dil se pyaar karein... "
He hugged Rajveer understanding those feelings...

After a minute, Rajveer broke the hug,
" door hat galeej insaan....
Ananya kahi tufaan na laade hum dononki love story dekh ke..."
He tried to joke on their own bromance....

Naveen - " aur meri behan pakka goli maardegi.. Chal.. der horahi, jaadu lagana he mujhe....."
He worried about his future....

Rajveer - " church bhi toh jaana he....
Bye Ananya... "
He happily turned around....as the wind ruffled his hairs acting as per Ananya's wish....

Naveen kissed the grave,
" Cya Ranya..."
He too whispered apologizing at the deed he committed....

Yeh rahii meri zindagi ek anokha, khoobsoorat panna, joh chah ke bhi main bhula nahi sakta. Ananya meri phehla pyaar he, jisne mujhe yeh bataya ki riste nibhaye jaate he aur usne apni baaton pe khadi utar ke bhi dikhaya..

Main use kabhi nahi bhula sakta. Par yeh such bhi he ki jaane wale kabhi laut ke nahi aate. Ek sipahi hoke yeh baat maine achche se jaana he. Apne hi nazronke saamne apne bahot se yaaronko khoya he. Ateet se seekh ke aage badhna isiko toh kehte he zindagi...
Is such ko nazar andaz karke rote bait bhi nahi sakta tha, jeena joh tha desh ke liye.....

Lekin Anu ko nahi bhool paya main, iska matlab yeh bhi nahi ki maine aage nahi badh paaraha hu zindagi mein. Jaise meri Naina kehti he, us lamhonko kyun bhoola jaaye jiske wajah se aaj hum jeerahe he.

Forever ka matlab insaano se nahi,
Yaadonse hote he. Chaahe insaan chod ke kyun na jaaye, lekin yeh yaadein humesha humare saath rehte he... Forever.....

Naveen - " Woh Col. Shetty unhone retirement leli he. Suggestion maangi he tumse ki iske baad kyaa karein??...."
He asked ..

Rajveer - " Bol dobara shaadi karle Susheela jii se. Usase zyada khushii aur kahii nahi milegii..."
He passed a genuine smile....

Naveen - " Tu army ko miss nahi karta ??...
I mean adventures, fun thrills!!... bore nahi hota yaha??? "
He asked the same question, this time with the new name....

Rajveer - " dushman ko bagal mein rakh ke sota hu, uske saath hi rehta hu. Naina ke saamne yeh sub kyaa chese he??..."
He laughed loudly....again drowing in his own thoughts....

Haaan, Maina army chod dii....
Kyun...yeh toh aap log jaante hi hoo...

Aur kyaa nahi jante, woh aage jaake khud padhoo...

💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞

Naina - " Gunny...."
She called out loudly.....

Gunny - "What? I hate gatherings...."
He engrossed himself with Bread and jam not even waiting her to talk.

Naina - " Waha panner he...Chole he... aur bhi khana he. Tum yeh kyaa leke baite ho?..."
She mildy scolded him...changing his plates

Gunny - " I'm missing this. Itne mahine yahi khakhake aadat...."

Before he completed his line, she poured some good food in his plate. And ordered him to eat that.

Gunny - " Thanks... "
He raised the glass of water dedicating to her.

Naina - " Aree aavona bahar. Bahot maza aayega..."
She insisted trying to drag him to varanda.

Gunny - " aake kyaa karun? Tera pati jailor jaise idhar udhar bhatakta rehta he. Teri beti ko dekhne bhi nahi deta jaise ki main koyi bachcha chor hu. Isase achcha main yahi kitchen mein baitun.
Huh !...."
He made a face and diverted his whole concentration to food.

With a confused face, she walked towards the hall area, and found Shalini lazily scrolling down the instagram with no enthusiasm. Her son Rihaan was playing with his new car, making noisy sounds.

" Bhabhi, aapko kuch photos dikhana he...aap...."

Shalini looked her briefly,
" maine dekhli he Naina. Aane ke baad wahi toh kar rahi. Baby ke kapde, pics videos. Ek ek video kitne seconds ke he , kitne mb ke he yeh bhi pata he mujhe. Bus yeh nahi pata ki Baby exactly he kaisi!!!.."
She too made a face flipping her eyes back to reels.

Naina - " Bhabhi, aap Rajveer..."

Naveen - " us gadhe ka naam le hi math. Mujhe subhah subhah utake Church tak le gaya, woh bhi chalake. Paani tak nahi pilaya. Uper se bolta he ki haath pair dhoke aavo, sanitizer lagavo, woh bhi Mere hi Chote Gudiya ke toys chune se phehle. Gudiya ke Gudiya ko pakadna toh door ki baat he..."
He kicked Gunny's chair in frustration causing him fall on groud. Instead of picking up the fallen log, he attacked the plate.....

Naina - " Rajveer Kaha he????..."
She asked angrily preparing jwala in eyes to fire...

Naveen shouts, enthusiastically
" Bahar..."

She marched out to catch the criminal.... Sometimes he is someone else behaving like a child, sometimes a complete matured saint and sometimes possesive psych. After their reunion, he is slowly shedding his fake colors showing off his natural form...
She loves it...
And She loves him...

( Imagine the baby 3 month's old )

From a distance she caught Rajveer in the middle of garden area, talking to their daughter without a pause... he never behaves like this with anyone except the little munchkin. Even with her his talks sometimes turns out to be hesitating as if he is in lose of words or thinking too much.

She admired how handsomely He's carrying his sweetheart, close to his heart, introducing her new butterflies visited their farm... his lips were curved with a kilowatt smile as a result of the beautiful life he knitted with her..

Naina's anger evaporated Witnessing the most nirvanic scene, and her heart jumped in joy as Rajveer turned to her, the very next moment. Seeing her like a statue, He raised his brows and a wink followed it next, skipping a her heartbeat...
She flustered as usual and he was happy to see his effect on her.

Rajveer - " Naina..."
He called her asking to join them...

She neared him, and the baby raised her hands to hug her Mumma... even she was hungry.

Rajveer - " Itni jaldii party badaldii???..."
He passed the baby with care, not before correcting her little cap.

Naina kissed her to hear the sweetest giggles,
" Phehle yeh batavoo, Dada Pari ki jodii subhah subhah kaha ghoomi pe gayi thi???...."
She asked him...

Rajveer - " Church... "
He whispered hugging both of them...and his lips found their way down Naina's cheeks...he couldn't resist when her face glows seeing the baby.

" waise bhi Hum dono quality time bita rahe the. Bhaiyya ke aane ke baad hum dono ko koyi poochta thodi na he yaha..."

He frowned keeping his jawbone on her shoulder complaining about her ignored behavior after Naveen's arrival but his hand that was sneaking under her kurti told another story...

Naina - " Itna bhi jhoot na bolo aap. Jabse aaye he Bhai aapke saath hi chipke rahe he. Subhah bhi aap unko bahar legaye...."

Just then she remembered the earlier incident. She really wanted to slap his hand and kick his foot, for being so possesive. But the lovely work of his rough forefinger around her navel was building a raw desire inside her to kiss him rapturously until they were on bed, naked, sweaty making love till the dawn sets and rises once again.

Rajveer mentally laughed knowing what's going on in her mind. After this little bundle of joy, they never tried to explore each other deeply... and those tiny make out sessions were unsatisfactory leaving Naina horny...
He loved to tease her. He moved his finger further deep, as if measuring the cavernous of the sweet cave.

" No one is missing me..."
He husked chewing her earlobe, to hear her sensuous moan...

Even in the heat of their love, he encircled the baby in another hand, incase her hands turned jelly. Luckily the baby's eyes were on colorful butterflies hopping from here to there.

Naina- " I missed you..."
She replied unable to parch her thirst as their time was dedicated to the little new guest.

Rajveer - " You like this?..."
He asked softly massaging her tummy, not at all going down...

Naina - " Hmm... "
She closed her eyes in pleasure....

Rajveer- " tell me more...What you want? "
He asked one more question, to her surprise.

Naina - " Your precious words. Jitne aap Baby aur Bhaiyya se baat karte he, usase aadhe bhi mere saath nahi karte..."
She complained sliding down his hand

Rajveer - " Noted.
Waise kabhi maine bataya, Why I lo..." he bit his lips and continued,

" why I like you so much???..."

Naina saw his face, reading that swallowed word,
" Nahii... Mujhe jaan na bhi nahi he... I love myself, that's enough I guess.

Waise Kabhi maine aapko bataya, why I love you so much."
She sent his own arrow towards him...

Rajveer - " Bahot baar... But I wanna hear it once again...Humesha tumhara reason alag alag hota he... "
He asked carrying the baby as per her request.

Naina - " aap multitalented joh he...jitne bhi point bataun utna kam.he..."
She winked...making him blush...

Rajveer - " tumhare pyaar ke saamne kuch bhi nahi he. Ab batadoo..."
He came back to his form....

Naina took few steps front, and in a low tone so that he could hear it clearly,
" You are Fucking good on bed...."
She ran leaving Rajveer's mouth open....

Rajveer - " aisa kaun bolta he, yaar..
Main tumhara pati hu...."

He wondered at his own words. He never openly said these things to her and look at her...everytime she initiated dirty talks amazing him and his works were reservered just for implementations of her naughty plans... He never tried to flirt with her freely.

But, after enjoying the just happened scene and listening to her words, he wanted to give it a try. A verbal sex may be....

" Jaldi aavoo,
Shona ka bath time..."
She shouted from the gate showing him the time...

Partially covering his shocked reactions, he entered their home.... analysing about the work he was going to execute.

Naina - " Ek minute...."
She stopped him in mid...

Rajveer - " Ab konsii shock dena baaki he..."

Naina - " Sub yaha kyun aaye he?.."
She asked waiting for his answer

Rajveer - " Tumhara bhai ka toh nahi pata baaki sub meri beti ke naamkaran ke liye aaye he. "

He answered casually, blinking his eyes several times to gain the attention of the baby. Now a days he has been addicted to her attention.

Naina - " aur aap kyaa kar rahe?..."
She slapped his arm...

Rajveer - " aauch...Naina...
Main kuch bhi nahi kar raha. Tum mujhpe atyachar kyun kar rah?..."
He caressed his shoulder over the jacket

Naina - " Gunny ne itne saare khilone laaye the, aap bole sub bade he Shona ke liye. Yesa rudely kaun bolta he? Aur Bhaiyya isko gaana gaakar sularahe the aapne bola isko aapke bina neend nahi aati. Really ?

Uper se Shalini bhabhi iske diapers change kar rahi thi, tab bhi aap khudak padhe yeh bolke ki use aadat nahi he. Aur aap...."
She drowned him in the ocean of his own karma, not even letting him to talk...

Rajveer finally, pinched her nose to stop the blabers,
" Gunny joh toys liya tha woh sharp edged the. Aise kaise main Shona ke haath mein deta. Aur tera bhai ka chod hi do, besura he. Neend mein soya hua bachchi ko bhi jaga dega. "

Naina - " Aur bhabhi???..."

Rajveer - " Shalu do saal se Rihan ko sambhal sambhalke thak gayi he... aur ab..."

Naina - " Aap na mere saamne natak math kijiye. Seedha bol dijiye ki aap mujhse zyada Baby se pyaar karte he... Isiliye use ek pal ke liye bhi akela nahi chodte. Mujhe yeh woh bahana karke aap Dada beti dono ghoomne jaavo humesha. "

She went on in other direction as her eyes followed him cooing their baby ignoring her words....

Rajveer - " Yeh baat toh bilkul sahii kaha tumne..."
He replied....

Naina seeing here and there to find a weapon,
" Rukoo...Abhi batati hu main aapko..."

Rajveer - " Itne der se toh batarahi....."
He teased her again to see her red nose....

Rajveer's Mom - " Nainaaaa...
Pandit jii bularahe he... "
She called her dear daughter in law....

Naina - " abhi toh bach gaye aap. Raat hone do..."
She was about to terrify him...

He kissed her lips briefly, whispering,
" Raat ko toh ek hi kaam kiya jaata he darling..."
And escaped leaving her mouth open like a cold fish....boomerang effect.

Again, he is copying her actions...
She should display more of herself so that he properly learna how to flirt with her openly.

Smacking her own head, she moved in carrying the baby basket...

💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞

She left me...without a note or message. She didn't even care to see me properly for once before leaving, and carried a piece of my soul with her. Of course she left her gadha bhaiyya to take care of me. But no one can ever take her place, the warmth of her hand on my cheeks always comforted me, her words always healed my wounds, she asked me not to burry my past and taught me to smile remembering the happy memories.

She is the Moon which reflected light to my dark earth during night. She always rotated around me, as thoughts in past and in real after our marriage.

Aah!!! Our marriage must be the most dramatic, emotional and dangerous event in the decade. I was not at all in my senses after seeing her wailing in that golden joda. I always wanted to see her in bridal avtar. I imagined her wearing them with jeans on, hopping from here to there, blabbering to pandit jii that his mantras are old fashioned. He should try new. I imagined her entering the madap on horse dancing, laughing and with lots of talks. That was my Naina. Full of pranks and life.

It broke my heart as I helplessly witnessed her cutting the wrist just because I broke her marriage. I kicked out her dream boy, her first love Capt. Abhimanyu Roy Chauhan from her marriage. My intention was not to crush her heart. And to make it just like mine. A Black one, which observes all colors, conceals light.. That means a life without colors.... without happiness.....

I married her, only to bring smile on her lips, to paint her life with colors I borrowed from her. I wasn't sure how to do it. But I knew all her secrets. I thought to use them all. This was one of the reason my brain always presented. But My heart was clever, actually it was I who always craved to live with happiness. I knew it from start that with her I could lead a...

Suddenly the book got snatched from her hands...
She turned to know the culprit and saw him...

Rajveer with a frown,
" aise dusronke dairy padhna galat baat he Naina..."
He complained making her feel guilty

Naina looking here and there,
" Sorry, woh diary khulla padha tha toh padhliya maine. "
She thought about those words. Did he really wrote them?
She silently moved towards their bed where her darling is shining like a star...

( I've taken this image from Instagram. Koyi case na book kariyoo )

Naina's mood swinged 360 degree,
beaming with joy,
" Yeh kisne kiya?..."

Rajveer keeping aside his dairy, he joined them,
" Of course maine. "

Naina took a bit of kajal and smeared it behind baby's ear,
" Yeh toh bilkul...."

Rajveer - " Tumharii jaisi lag rahii...."
He completed her sentence

Naina with full attitude,
" meri beti he meri jaisi hi dikhegi na... Alee..
Meri Shona... Mumma ke pass aayegii..."
She extended her hands to lift the baby...

In the process her hand collided with a box, kept beside the baby...

Naina - " Yeh kyaa he??..."

Rajveer shrugged his shoulder,
" Shona ke pass tha... Usise poocho..."

Naina - " very funny Rajveer . Batayiye na.. Kyaa he usmein? Mere liye gift he??..."
She sounded excited.

Rajveer nodded, smilingly and made the baby gift that box to Naina with her tiny hands...

Naina - " Meri Shona inni badii hogayi ki woh apni Mumma ko gift dene lagii..."
She kissed those chubby cheeks three four times before concentrating upon the box...

Rajveer - " Shona ke Dada bhi line mein he..."
He cribbed forwarding his lips...

Naina gripping his jawline, turned it,
" Zyada nii milega..."
Saying this she kissed his cheek noisily

Rajveer - " Haayeee... Is naacheez toh aapke saye ke (shadow) saath bhi khush hi he..."
He kept his hand on heart acting dramatically

Naina - " Aaj kal bahot bolne lage ho aap..."
She brushed those butterflies flying inside her stomach seeing his new version

Rajveer - " Phehle gift toh kholoo... fir dekhna kitna bolne laga hu main..."
He whispered proudly

Naina - " Aise bol rahe jaise bhaiyya ko box mein kaid karke laaye ho..."
She slowly opened the box and found something....

Naina - " Yeh??..."
She was unable to find words for the feeling surging inside her heart...

Rajveer - " Aaj sirf humari beti ka naamkaran nahi, is ghar ka bhi hoga...
RAINA..." pausing a second he carefully looked into her eyes and saw them turning moist...

He pulled her into his lap, tapping her back,
and whispered,
" Naina, itna bhi kharab nahi lag raha yeh... ki tum rone lagoo...Naina ka Rajveer aur Rajveer ki Naina.. Raina hi honge na..."

Naina - " Thank You Rajveer...yeh bahot sunder he...
I love this..."
She hugged him with force causing both of them fall on the bed...such a way that she is laying on top....

Rajveer - " Itna pasand aaya gift??..."
He asked to hear her again...

Naina - " Bahoot...."
She leaned on his chest looking at the plate again and again....

Rajveer - " ek hi gift ko aisi dekhti rahogi toh dusre ko kaise dekhogi???..."
He tickled her waist...

Naina grinning, like a kid who is about to get a extra candy,
" aur ek bhi he???... Kaha he??..."
She got up seeing here and there...

Rajveer caught her and again pulled her down,
" Shona ko tumse kuch kehna tha..."

Naina looked at Rajveer then at the baby trying to find some clues... she thought next one would be covered in some box and
her eyes flew everywhere except her husband...

" Kyaa he Rajveer... kuch bhi toh dikh nahi raha..."

Rajveer - " Dhyaan se dekhoo Naina Dikhega..."
He whispered playing with a traitor curl...

Naina after ten second of searching around, turned to Rajveer,
" Kuch bhiii....Naa......"

Those words got sunk in her throat as her eyes witnessed most beautiful yet painful thing...

Her name tattooed on his chest...that too inside a heart symbol....

Rajveer held her hand and kept it on tattoo,
" Shona ko tumse yeh kehna tha ki,
Her Dada Loves Her Mumma...

He really loves her... "

He felt her fingers moving all around that area again marking a heart on it... She was silent but her eyes were shouting aloud in happiness...

Rajveer - " Pasand aaya ???..."
He asked to hear her voice

Naina - " dard hua hoga na? ...."
She kissed his skin delicately not letting her lips hurt him...

Rajveer - " Nah... Tumse judii koyi bhi chese takleef nahi deti Naina..."
He caressed her head with love...

Naina - " Aapko main itni pasand hu ??..."
She lifted her eyes, letting those little tears fall from her long eye lashes.....

Rajveer - " Yeh nahi poochogi ki mujhe tumse suchmein pyaar he yaa nahi???..."
He asked with surprise. She never demanded love from him...

Naina - " agar nahi karte, mere saath yaha thodi na hote..."
She giggled shedding happy tears...

Rajveer - " tumhe maalom tha..."

His face was exact xerox copy of an idiot, she concluded.

She held his fingers for counting, and
like a secret, talked in a low tone,
" aapne army choda, aap mere saath yaha aake settle huye, aapne meri har baat maani, aapne cooking classes join ki, gardening ki, gaana gaya, dance kiya, ludo khela aur mere saath ...."

Rajveer - " woooooh bhi kiya..."
He too joined mentioning the most important thing. He can not point it out, as they have a new learner with them....

Naina glaring at him,
" Itne mein toh koyi bhi samajhlega... Aapke tarah buddhu thodi na hu main..."
She raised her blouse...as it was collarless...

Rajveer - " Yeh baat bhi he...
Fir bhi Naina..."
He tried to explain

Naina - " Yeh duniya mein na sub naam ke liye yeh teen lafz istemaal karte he Rajveer lekin usko dil se maante nahi he. Aapne toh bina bole mujhe pyaar diya. Aapke har kadam mere kadam se hi jude he. Aapne kabhi bhi mujhe yeh ehsaas hone nahi diya ki aap mujhe chahte nahi he.

Yeh sub pyaar ke ehsaas hi toh he...

Yeh kaafi he Rajveer.
Mujhe aur kuch nahi chahiye...."
She made him understand what she expects from life.

Rajveer - " thank you Naina for living with this buddhu...."
He kissed her forehead ..

Naina - " aahaa...
It should be hot and dashing buddhu...."
She corrected him kissing all around that tattoo not missing a chance to touch his abs to tease him...

💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞

Pandit - " Yajman bachchi ke Mama kidhar he. "
He asked seeing so many men around...

Naveen jumping into the scene, balancing his vesti ( lungi - a traditional south Indian wear )
" idhar he Mama....
Main hu... Mama...

Kabse raah dekh raha tha is din ke liye.
Mere Gudiya ke Gudiya ke Maama banne...."
He shouted excitedly and sat beside pandit jii...

Seeing his antics baby laughed loudly... dragging Rajveer's kurti...lifting her arms and legs....

" aise bol raha jaise Shona ko dekha hi nahi tune. Aur uper se yeh kyaa besh banake aaya he tu... bachchi dar jaayegi...."
He asked irritatingly knowing the baby is already in love with her maamu, just like her mumma..

Naveen - " Jal math tu saale. Phehle mere Gudiya ko churaliya. Ab meri Gudiya ke Gudiya ko mujhse door kar raha..."
He argued asking pandit jii whether can he hold the baby.....

Rajveer - " Naina meri biwi he. Maine shaadi kari he usase... aur yeh meri beti he, maine hi...."

Naina pinching Rajveer's thighs,
" Aage nahi. Subko pata he ki Baby kaise aayi he..."
She whispered in his ears..

Shalini - " Fir bhi ek baar tum bata hi do Raj...
Mangalore aane ke do hi mahine mein tum dono.."
She neared both of them, to increase her fun...

Rajveer - " batadun???..."
He passed a naughty smile to Naina, painting her cheeks with red shade...

Pandit jii explained the rituals to trimurthis. And they followed them without any fights. Naveen threw a few patakas towards Raj pulling his leg but, the great strategist kept his mouth shut as his wife's hands were on his thighs ready to attack any time.

Pandit ji - " Ab bachchi ke naam uske kaan mein teen baar boliyein...."
He passed few flowers in Naveen's hand...

Rajveer - " bachchii meri he toh yeh kyun bolega? Rihaan ka naam bhi isine rakha tha. Toh mere Shona ka naam...."
He was alll ready to beat the pandit ji..

Naveen passed a cunning smile to him increasing his doubt.

Rajveer looking at Naina,
" Zaroor isine kuch lafda kiya he... "

Pandit ji - " Bachchi naam uske Maami bhi rakh sakti he..."
He threw another atom bomb....

Shalini - " Yeh huii na baat... maine toh bahot sii pyaari pyaari naam select karke rakhe he..."
She jumped with joy...

Pandit jii- " aur daadi bhi rakh sakti he..."
He talked again...

Rajveer's Mom came forward holding a jewelry box...

Gunny shook his head at the drama playing non-stop,
" Subke sub goose khilake aaye he Pandit jii ko..."

Rajveer - " Sunoo jisko bhi naam rakhna he, apne apne bachche paida karoo aur rakhoo..."
He announced and then saw his mom,

" Mumma aapne Sherry ka naam Sherry rakha tha, I remember, toh is baar aapke chance nahi he...

Aur tum Shal, tere liye main khud Maldives ka tickets nikalke dunga..."
He winked earning look from Naina....

Gunny - " Tu bhi aglii baar rakhiyoo. Ab ki baar biwi ka sarkaar..."
He yelled raising his glass for Naina...

Rajveer agreed to him somehow,
" Naina tum...."

Naina - " Rajveer aap rakhiyena...
I'm sure koyi sunder sa naam hi rakhenge aap..."

She handovered him the job as she knew how excited he was to do this thing. May be next time the luck will be her side.

Rajveer's Mom- " Koyi aisa naam rakhna jiske matlab bhi sunder ho. "

Naina glanced Rajveer's blank face, following the path his mind was walking. She expected the most common name he will keep. Of course it will be Ananya. It was obvious.

Naveen slided towards Naina and whispered,
" Main joh soch raha hu, tu bhi wahii soch rahi he na??..."
He asked with horrified expression

Naina gulped hard,
" Chill Bhai. Achcha naam toh he na...
Ana..."
She was about to spell the whole name...

Rajveer - " Vidhii... Yeh rakhde..."
He asked Naina filling her another ear....

Naina - " yeh toh aapki..."

Naveen - " Crush ki naam he..."

Both brother-sister duo saw each other with surprise,
" aapko bhi pata he???..."
They asked one another....

Rajveer talking to himself, or to say talking to baby,
" Yeh thodii sii badi hoke uske jaise cute sii dikhegi.
Meri Vidhii..."
He cooed her...remembering his school crush...

Shalini smacking Rajveer's head,
" Tum mardonki yahii aadat he. Kitne bhi dhoke khavo, saalo gavavo, apni phehlii...."

Naveen cutting her dangerous words,
" Kyaa socha tha kyaa hogaya!!!!?..."
His face dipped in disappointment .

Naina - " Bilkul bhi nahii... Dekhiye Rajveer, aap mere saamne dusre ladkii naam bilkul bhi nahi lenge... warna aapke dono tange thod dungii...."
She warned him showing her round eyes....

Rajveer - " Yeh konsii baat huii, Shona ladkii he ladkii ke hii naam rakhna hoga na... "
He tried to irritate her.... so he could laugh secretly

Naveen knowing his plan,
" Waise Rajveer ke R se hum kuch rakh sakte he...jaise ki Ritu... Kyun Raj..."
He poured ghee in the havankund...

Rajveer - " Ritu naam utna bhi bura nahi he..."
He too supported glancing at Naina with peripheral vision... and saw a live erupting volcano

Shalini joining them,
" Nahii toh Naine ke N se rakhenge, Nandini... Yaad he Raj woh Brig. Reddy ki betii Nandini jiske saath tune Ball attend kiya tha..."

Rajveer - " Nandinii... ise short karke hum Nandu bhi bula sakte he... Kyun Nainu..."
His voice turned into sweet in end...

Naina - " Haaan haan... Saare ke saare naam bahot hi sunder he... ek kaam karoo Lolita hi rakhdoo, aapki favorite thi na woh.... "
She too mimicked him turning sweet....

Rajveer cheekily smiled at her knowing she is the mirchii dipped in honey....

Naveen raising his hands,
" bus bus... aur nahii... Veeru ek last chance he tumhare pass...
Agar naam pasand nahi aaya toh out..."
He gave a deadline

Naina looked in other direction to cool down her anger... How could he suggest his old female flings name infront of her???

Rajveer - " Ahsaas..."
He uttered gathering everyone's attention towards him...

" Naina se kab main pyaar kar baita yeh toh nahi jaanta main. Lekin pyaar he usase is baat ka ehsaas mujhe us din hua, jis din Naina ne mujhe humare beech..." looking at the baby,

" iske hone ka khabar batayii...

Pyaar koyi chese nahi sirf ek ehsaas hota he jise hum bus mehsoos karlete he. Shona ke saath mere pyaar ne bhi dheere dheere apne hone ke ehsaas deti gayii...
Jab bhi Main Naina ka saath hota hu, mujhe kisi aur chese ki zaroorat yaa kami nahi lagti. Main bus un lamhonmein jeeraha hota hu jab Naina meri saath hoti he.

I love You Naina... with all my heart and soul..."
He extended his hand and,

She held him tightly overwhelmed with his actions...

Rajveer - " Isiliye kyaa hum Shona ke naam Ahsaas rakhde??..."
He proposed with a fear of rejection... as he saw all of them listening to him like a bunch of zombies.

Naina - " Ahsaas...."
She called the baby, agreeing with Rajveer....

Naveen - " Veeru, aaj tune meri taraf dii gayi dusre mauke ko pyaar ke Ahsaas se bandh dii...."
He declared proud to have Rajveer in his life...in his heart..

Rajveer and Naina both whispered in baby's ear,
" Ahsaas.. Ahsaas.....Ahsaas...."

THE END

💟🧡💛💚💙💜🤎❤🧡💛💚💙💜❤🧡💛💚💟

I donno what to say now.
I'm unarmed, speechless.

This story that was started in my collegeday, during those boring lunch break,
held my hand and walked with me
all these time.
Literally I cried before publishing this chapter.

Ive read few readers openly saying, they gonna miss this story.
Thanks to all of you for unconditionally loving this three Black Hearts.

Syeda4you
This girl stood as my support throughout this journey. After publishing every chapter I used to call or message her asking,

" Sub sahi gaya na? Kuch galti toh nahi ki?
Story sahii jaaraha he na?.."
And eat her head until she says its good.
It's then I feel relaxed ki chaloo Syeda ne kaha toh sahii hoga.
Love You My Vamps for being my partner ❤

At the end, who didn't understand why this story is named as
Black Hearts,
Jaise Rajveer ne kaha,
Black means absence of light.
Humari zindagi mein Pyaar se badi koyi roshni nahi hoti.
So Black Hearts means Absence of Love.
It's basically a Raina Kahani,
Aakhir mein Pyaar hona hi tha...

With heavy heart,
Aapki,
Nandu
❤🖤❤
