Reaching home with determination... she ran back to her room...packed about 5-6 sets of comfy clothes and innerwear and 2-3 business wear along with her laptop and chargers...She came down with the luggages in hand

"Doll? Baccha kaha Jaa rahi hai tu?" Anish asked

"Ha..voh chachu actually ek 3 day business conference hai Lonavla mei and mei wahi stay karnewali hoon for another 4 days...just to enjoy the time there...!" She lied through her teeth...still asking multiple sorry in her mind

"Par doll...shaadi k itne saare kaam hai... shopping hai...tere bina kaise chalega baccha?" Anish asked

"Chachu please adjust karlena this one week I'll be back and do all the shopping pakka please!! For me??Mei abhi bohot late ho rahi hoon!" Riddhima pleaded giving her best puppy eyes

"Theek Jaa tu magar! Guards k saath jaayegi tu!" He sternly advised

"Haa obviously mayank hai mere saath... okay bye guys see ya later! Bhaiyu ko bhi bol denaa" she ran off without waiting for his reply as he just shook his head and got in her car... dialing Mayanks number

"Dude listen carefully....You are going to Lonavala today and staying There for 7 days...I have booked your rooms! Bhai ne poocha toh kuch bhi mat bolna...mei vansh k saath hi hoon...agar mujhe pata chala tu ne kuch bhi ulta seedha bola! Mei Tera kya haal banaungi tu PTA bhi nahi hai!!" She warned hanging up and driving towards the market to buy groceries....Then came to VR MANSION after giving Holiday to the cook and other servants for next 7 days...she began cooking his dinner

Vansh who had slept this whole time got up hearing some noises.... thinking it might be his servants he didn't think much of it and slept again due to tiredness... Riddhima on the other hand had a hard time cooking as she tried so hard to follow the YouTube recipe....She had search around so much to know where the spices are....

"Why is his kitchen so complicated!?" She sighed climbing down with the asafoetida and pepper powder from the top shelf

Finally she cooked the lentil porridge for him...She was about to go call him to eat but he was already standing there looking so angry....He was about to go up the stairs again when she ran after him and caught his wrist

"Chalo Vansh it's dinner time!" She said calmly

"Enough hissy fits...I'm not gonna entertain any of especially when you are not fine....mujhpe jitna ghussa karna hai karlo lekin khaane pe nahi!!" Riddhima sternly said as he tried getting His wrist out of her hold but eventually gave up and stood there still not looking at her as she led him to the sofa and made him sit there comfortably....Went back to the kitchen and brought 2 bowls of Lentil porridge for both of them....

"Chalo open your mouth vansh raisinghania!No tantrums!!" She sternly said as she gently fed him a spoonful of warm lentil porridge (khichdi)... Needless to say he was really elated by her return and the fact that she cooked for him...made him eat with her own hand.... despite his resistance and the slight disagreement they had earlier...even when he tried to push her away...she came back to him and has now stayed with him in his weakness that filled his heart with warmness and love for her...But deep down he was still disappointed and worried about why she didn't think of marriage with him....Does she not see a future with him? Is he not enough for her? Is she reconsidering their relationship? Or is he just a time pass for her? No! That couldn't be....but he couldn't just shake off those unnecessary doubts and thus...his insecurities just got worse....

In all his thoughts he didn't see she had already finished feeding and went to clean up the kitchen... seeing her disappear into the kitchen he knew her time and work here is over she has to go back to her house....Oh how he wished this was her permanent house ? The thought alone made him sulk... about an hour later

"Vansh!your Bath is ready!" She blankly said as he slowly got but she soon rushed to him to help him walk around....He felt slightly weak and needed support to walk upstairs...She held his giant hand in hers and held him to his bedroom...He kept admiring her thoughtfulness and care while she didn't even glance at him for once and that broke his heart....He understood she's still mad about the discussion they had earlier....So he quiet but his mind was swirling around with hundreds of questions that he knew were stupid but at this moment his logical mind was not working...he was completely focused on comparing his present situation with his terrible past....Not that he really wanted to do that but he unconsciously just did it...and fuel to the fire is unusual silence...he wanted her to keep talking to him and be always in his arms...he knew it was selfish but he couldn't help it...he needed her so bad....Sadly he went inside and bathed in the warm water and then got dressed up....

"Vansh!!? Are you okay??" She knocked on the door in worry hearing nothing from inside....He cringed hearing her calling his first name whereas she usually called him Adonis...he wanted to change that...he would do it anyway possible...with the new found determination...he dried himself and walked out of the Bathroom... smiling to himself thinking of his plans

"Vansh?" He didn't even pay heed to her and put the ac on...

"Vansh! Kapde kyu nahi pehni-"

"Vansh sun bhi rahe ho kya!" He still didn't look at her even for one moment... having enough of it she tried to step out of the room to give him privacy

Tried to being the keywords

He pulled and pinned her against the wall before she could do so
"Van-"

"Shhh!!" He kept his finger on her lips shushing her

"I'm not vansh...I'm Adonis... please call me that...I know I made you uncomfortable with my questions earlier...I am so sor-"

"It's okay Vansh-" he glared at her

"Adonis it's fine...you had your opinion and it's alright...I just didn't think of any thing about settling down and getting married as yet...I have so many things to do...and We're both so young..I mean you can understand na...Give a year or two then we'll think about it!" She calmly explained as vansh smiled and kissed her cheeks dangerously close to her Lips....his hand supported her neck and tilted her face and he kissed her deeply....The other hand pulled her close to himself as he walked her back to his bed and gently pushed her down... hovering over her as he Began kissing her neck

"Aahh ..Ad- Adonis!" She moaned feeling his kisses on her sweet spot as he sucked and soothed her skin his hand slid inside her shirt when she suddenly realised what was happening and stopped his hand .....Gently took it out...She straightened up as he looked at her in absolute confusion...as he tried kissing her again but she stopped him

"Adonis...no...not now please!" She said as his mind whirled back to negative thoughts on why she is rejecting his touches...He quietly stood up and Walked back to his closet before she could say anything.... Sighing she knew he took it in a wrong way....After changing he came and sat there awkwardly without speaking a word

"Adonis.... You're not understanding-"

"Yes very much true I can't seem to understand why you are rejecting my advances? Why sweetheart? What's wrong with me?am I not enough for you? Do you not feel comfortable with me?or are you-"

"Enough Vansh Raisinghania!" She loudly said making him shut up instantly seeing his sulking face she scooted closer to him as he went far....and the process continued until they were at the end of the bed....as she tightly held his forearm

"Adonis! Firstly I didn't reject your touch...Why would I ? It feels like freaking heaven...how can I even resist that? Yet I did! Why? Because I know that you are not okay at this moment and the doctor has prescribed total bed rest for atleast 4 days...I didn't want you to strain in any way... please Understand my point of view! Your health comes first to me!" She softly explained making him sigh in relief knowing there's nothing to misunderstand here and he was just dramatic

"But what about me huh? How can I resist your touch? I want it now? I want you so freaking bad! How can I just sit there without touching you....? I can't...Call me clingy but I want to hold you in my arms always please!! No sex I swear....I want to hold you close to me....Skin to skin...just you and me...Cuddling...just 5 minutes I swear... please before you go home....I want it please!!" Vansh pleaded

"Adonis who said anything about going home?"

"I mean it's almost late at night you need to-"

"No According to my family I am in a business trip so....I'm here only Until you are fine...so don't you worry! And about What you said....I would never say no to cuddling!!" She said removing her shirt and bra....her upper body naked and absolutely enticing to him....as he also repeated her actions and Instantly hugged her falling on the soft bed... keeping his head on her...nuzzling on her breasts...He felt content....Like everything he wished for has come true....She gently massaged his head.... sighing and thinking how sensitive Vansh has been lately and how smallest of her actions could affect him....She was determined to be more careful of her actions....But what worried her more was the mysterious Call this morning and the distressing message from Mayank that the call was from an Untraceable Private number....So she has no clue who is the caller...if it's a man or woman...What's the motive behind hurting vansh?...or even their location... Thinking of all this she fell into deep sleep extremely worried about what future holds for them
