Hello friends,

How are you all??

So sorry for not replying to your comments. I will do it very soon.

About that 'guess the correct order' game, sadly no one guessed it correct. Only one girl that too when I forced her to guess.

So the correct order of promos is "E-B-C-A-D"😁😁

Now let's move to the update. Read and don't forget to give your reviews about this one.

Happy reading.....😊😊
******************************

After one week,

Annika-"Mera pyaara baccha...only two spoons more."

      Annika said feeding another spoon of porridge to Sahil. He made faces but gulped it down and spoke,

Sahil-"You forcefully feed me whole bowl saying only two spoons only two spoons."

A-"Sahil you want to go home soon, right? So eat, don't talk while eating. Open your mouth. Aahhhh...."

      Sahil opened his mouth unwillingly and Annika smilingly made him eat another spoon of porridge.

Sa-"Didi stop now. I want to eat something spicy something yummy and....."

      Sahil spoke dreamingly but Annika cutted him off in between.

A-"After 15 days eat what you want. But for now you have to eat this only."

      She said pointing at the porridge bowl in her hand.

Sa-"But why? I am fine now. See I can move my leg too."

      He said and moved his bandaged leg on left side first and then at right side. Annika held his leg stopping him from doing that.

A-"Sahil what are you doing? Take it easy. Doctor asked to move it very slowly for exercise."

      She scolded him.

Sa-"Ok sorry. But see I can move my leg easily so I am fine na? Then please let me eat something else please please please."

     Sahil said making puppy face.

A-"No means no. Dr. Joshi will do tests of yours after 15 days and then only he will decide what diet you have to follow."

Sa-"But....."

A-"No if and but. Now take this medicine and sleep for sometime."

      Annika sternly said. So Sahil gulped down his capsules and drank water.

A-"Good boy. Now sleep."

Sa-"No I don't want to sleep. I am bored."

A-"Ok just lay down for sometime. Rudra is coming in next 10 minutes. Then you will not get bored, ok?"

Sa-"Ok but what about SSO?"

A-"He is also coming with Rudy before going to his office."

Sa-"Hmm ok...but tell me how he agreed to go to office today? You blackmailed him or what?"

      Sahil joked and Annika smiled.

A-"He was not ready to go but this meeting is very important for him so I convinced him to go."

Sa-"Haa only you can convince him."

A-"Yeah that's my power."

      Annika winked raising her imaginary collor. Sahil laughed.

A-"Ok now sleep."

      Sahil smiled lying down on the bed. Annika covered him with duvet and went to wash utensils.

      Last one week was much better for Annika. In last one week Shivaay was with her and Sahil all the time. He cancelled all his meetings and took a break from all his office work. He didn't even use his mobile phone for longer time then forget about breaking it. Three days after Sahil's operation, there was final match of his team Super Smashers but still he didn't go. Annika and Sahil tried to convince him but he sent Tej, Shakti and OmRu there. Super Smashers grabbed the IPL trophy. That day Annika was sad and feeling guilty for not able to send Shivaay there, but Shivaay said that she is his biggest prize and he don't want anything else. And after that he promised her that they will attend all matches together on next year.

      Sahil was recovering soon and so as Annika. She is perfectly fine now as Shivaay took special care of her in last 6-7 days. He made her eat healthy food time to time and made her eat medicines too. She was too stubborn when it comes to having them but then why fear when Shivaay is here. His famous Tadi helped him to make her agree for whatever he wants. So due to all medicines and proper food she is fine now. Credits goes not only to Shivaay's Tadi but also to Gauri and daadi. As they both made many dishes for Annika which are healthy and contains many proteins and vitamins. They made food adding more amount of Desi ghee and butter in it. Initially Annika denied to have that food as Sahil was allowed to eat only light food like khichdi, porridge, fruits and milk only. So Annika was not ready to eat all healthy and tasty food leaving him. But here too Shivaay's tadi worked. And she had to follow his orders.  Also Shivaay promised her that he will cook everything which Sahil wants to eat after his discharge.

      Shivaay was all the time with Annika but Annika knew pinky needs him too. So Annika convinced him to go to Oberoi Mansion every morning to have shower. At first he was not ready but when he went to Oberoi Mansion on next day of operation and then met Pinky he realized that he forgot to think about Pinky but then felt proud of his Annika more that she thought about Pinky without knowing the whole truth. Daadi also came with Jhanvi and Shakti to meet Sahil 2-3 times but all that time Annika purposely went to Canteen with Gauri or Bhavya so that Shivaay don't scold daadi again. 

       On the next day of operation Annika tried to talk with Shivaay about the matter she hide from him but he denied to listen. She kept trying but he didn't listen and ask her to wait for some more days and for now only concentrate on her health and Sahil. So then Annika also decided that she will talk to him after Sahil's discharge. Om and Khanna were keeping eyes on CCTV but after that day they didn't notice any strange thing. Suman also didn't meet that woman in this whole week.

      So, in short everything is so good untill today. Today morning when Annika opened her eyes she saw Shivaay was typing something on his phone and he was looking tensed. She got up from his lap and sat beside him. Forgot to mention, he every night made her sleep on his lap only ignoring her warnings. And Annika slept peacefully in last one week after many days. And surprisingly he didn't suffer from any kind of pain too. So, Annika got up and sat beside him and asked what happened. Shivaay said he have one very important meeting today probably the last meeting of this year, about his cricket team. But he don't want to go leaving her alone. But Annika asked him to go and promised him that she will take care of Sahil and herself for a day. So finally Shivaay agreed and left from there to take shower and promised her that he will come to meet Sahil before going to office as Sahil was sleeping when he left.

      Annika came back from the washroom and saw that her phone was ringing. Annika checked who was calling her. It was from Ramona. Annika answered it.

A-"Hello mam, good morning"

Ramona-"Good morning, Sahil is alright?"

A-"Yeah mam, his health is better now."

R-"That's good. Actually I..... I want one help from you."

A-"Help? What?"

R-"Can you come to office today?"

A-"Office??"

R-"Yeah. Actually we are collecting all records of this year. And mostly all of them are done by you only. So you can help us with that? If you are not here we have to call you again and again for information so it will be easy if you are here with us."

      Ramona requested and Annika was confused about what to answer her now.

A-"Ummm..... Let me see mam. I will call you back."

      She decided that she will ask Shivaay and told Ramona that she will call back.

R-"Ok. I am waiting. Bye"

A-"Bye"

      Annika cuts the call and looked at Sahil. Before she thinks something Shivaay and Rudra came there. Rudra went directly to Sahil but Shivaay stopped near Annika looking at her face.

S-"What happened?"

      He asked as she was looking confused about something. She told him everything.

S-"You don't worry about any office work. They will manage. If they need any help I will help them. As I am going there today I will help them."

A-"But Shivaay you will be busy in your meeting. So how will you able to help them?"

S-"So what to do? You want to come to office?"

      Shivaay asked and she nodded in yes.

A-"That was my work Shivaay. So I can help them na? Else they have to do much hard work for simple thing."

      Annika said and Shivaay thinks about it for a moment before saying,

S-"Ok...but then what about Sahil?"

      Annika smiled.

A-"I will talk to him. And Gauri said she and Bhavya are coming here today. So they will take care of him."

S-"Ok if you want to come then I am fine with it."

      Shivaay said with a smile and Annika too smiled.

A-"Thank you I will go and ask Sahil."

      Annika went to Sahil.

S-"It's good that she will be with me for a whole day. As I can't trust that lady and our fate."

      Shivaay said to himself. Sahil agreed on next second when Annika asked him as he was happy with the fact that Annika will not be there for the whole day to scold him for each n everything. So after saying bye to him Shivika left from there. Annika called Gauri and Gauri assured her that she will take care of Sahil.

Shivaay's office,

      Shivika came there and Shivaay left to his cabin for his meeting but not before giving her warning to not do much work. And Annika went to her desk. All employees were happy seeing Annika. Ramona and Natasha were happiest. They hugged Annika and welcomed her. Soon they started their work after some chit-chat.

      Shivaay's meeting ended in two hours but Annika's work was still incomplete. So she asked him to do his pending work until she completes her work. He offered help but Annika denied and asked him to do his pending work. So Shivaay again went to his cabin.

In afternoon,

      Everyone went for lunch but not Annika. She was still doing her work as only three files are left now. She got disturbed as someone tapped on her table. She looked up and saw Khanna there.

A-"Khanna ji, aap yaha?"

      She was confused plus surprised.

Khanna-"Haa Gauri mam sent this for you and sir."

      He said placing one big tiffin box on her table.

A-"Ok thank you."

      Annika said with a smile and Khanna left from there. Again Annika resumed her work but stopped after two minutes as her phone rings. It was from Gauri. She scolded Annika for not eating lunch which she specially sent for them. Annika chuckled at Gauri's fake anger but then agreed to her and stopped her work. She then moved to Shivaay's cabin with that tiffin box.

Shivaay's cabin,

      Shivaay was busy in his some work when his phone rings.

S-"Unknown number??"

      He was confused but received the call.

S-"Hello....."

Person on the other side-"Hello Shivaay."

S-"Yeah Shivaay Singh Oberoi speaking."

Person on the other side-"Come on Shivaay. I know who you are."

S-"But I don't know who you are?"

Person on the other side-"How can you be so heartless Shivaay. You only knows how to break heart. How can you forget me Shivaay. I am....."

      Shivaay got up from his chair.

S-"You..... How dare you to call me?"

Person on the other side-"Hahaha relax. I can do whatever I want."

S-"Yeah. I know what you did. But don't forget who am I. Try as much you want to. But you will never be successful."

Person on the other side-"Ohh so much attitude haa. I like it. But don't forget I am not less than you. You can say equal equal."

S-"Done? Ho gaya majaak? Now  tell me why you called me?

Person on the other side-"Offo see I also forgot about it. So I called you because I was missing you and wants to meet you."

S-"Why?"

Person on the other side-"Offo you just come. And haa don't need to tell anything to that Annika. It's between you and me. So just keep her away or if she tried to stop you then just leave her again just like last time. Then she will understand that she is just roadside trash and nothing else."

      Shivaay clenched his fists in anger and roared. 

S-"How date you to take my Annika's name by your dirty mouth? This is the last warning if next time you will say something about my Annika I will....."

Person on the other side-"You will what Shivaay? Hahaha. You can't do anything until I give you permission."

S-"What you want?"

Person on the other side-"Actually you know what I want. But still come to meet me and I will tell you again what I want."

S-"You are out of your mind. I don't want to come and stop troubling me."

Person on the other side-"I also don't like to trouble you. Ok... I will trouble that Annika. I will tell her the whole truth that....."

S-"Shut up. Just shut up. You are not doing anything like that."

Person on the other side-"Ok fine. But then just fulfill my wish. I promise I will never trouble her again."

S-"What? Are you out of your mind??...... I said don't take her name by your mouth, you will regret.....  And listen I am not going to do any such thing....."

Person on the other side-"Sochlo. You know the consequences."

S-"Shut up. Listen you are not doing anything like that....Warna Shivaay Singh Oberoi se bura koi nhi hoga.....If you will do something like that, then I will destroy you..... Just shut up....."

      Shivaay said in threatening tone and then threw his phone angrily. At that same time Annika entered into his cabin.

Annika-"Shivaay let's eat. You know aaj Gauri ne....."

      She stopped as she saw broken phone pieces on the floor. She then looked at Shivaay and saw his whole face is red due to anger and he was lost somewhere. Annika was confused. She slowly came to him and kept her hand on his shoulder.

A-"Shivaay....."

      Shivaay looked up and saw Annika there.

S-"You.....you....."

      He said looking at those broken phone pieces.

A-"What happened Shivaay? Is there any problem?"

       Annika said looking at his blood shot red eyes. Shivaay looked away from her and said,

S-"What are you doing here Annika? Go n have your lunch. I am busy. I will eat after sometime. Go"

      Shivaay said as he noticed tiffin box in her hand and Annika was sure that something happened again. She walked towards him.

Annika-"Shivaay....."

      Shivaay moved back and shouted,

Shivaay-"Go Annika....."

A-"Shivaay what....."

S-"Can't you hear me? Just go Annika."

A-"No I am not going anywhere."

      She said trying to hold his shoulders but he moved away her hands.

S-"We are in office and I am not asking your preference. I am telling you as your boss. Just leave."

      Shivaay again shouted this time more loudly that Annika was taken a back by this voice of him. She looked at him once and saw he was looking everywhere but her. She left from there without saying anything. Shivaay sighed in relief.

S-"I am sorry Annika. But I will handle this alone. And I promise this time I will not allow anyone to play with you n your emotions. No one will separate us this time."

      Shivaay said taking a deep breath and then went towards his desk.

A-"I knew it."

      Annika who was outside of his cabin said as she heard what he said.

Inside the cabin,

S-"Khanna, you have 10 minutes. I want each n every information about that person. N haa don't tell anyone about it."

      Annika heard this and sighed in disbelief.

A-"Shivaay, you are doing the same thing again. You are again hiding something from me like everytime. I asked you to share when you feel right but you didn't share till now. More than one week passed and now...this is some new problem. As he was all ok till the morning."

      Annika said to herself.

A-"That means there are two problems... I don't know they are related to each other or not but they are related to me. N still he is hiding. He knew last time he did same and what it cost? We both separated and....."

      She stopped as tears formed in her eyes. But she wiped them.

A-"No Annika. This time you will not cry but will do something."

      She decided and again tried to hear his voice but he was silent that means phone call was over.

A-"You are not allowed to handle everything alone this time, you are not allowed to take all the stress, all the pain alone. And you are not allowed to hide anything from me now. I will find out by my own what is bothering you and why. And then we will handle this problem together not only this but all upcoming problems in our life also.For that, first I have to find out what's going on? What to do what to do?"

      She thought about it and then remembered that Shivaay called Khanna before sometime.

A-"Khannaji toh abhi aaye the yaha. I have to meet him."

      She ran outside. She kept that tiffin box on her desk and went out of the office. She came to parking area but Khanna was left from there already. So she called him.

A-"Khannaji I want all the details which Shivaay asked you to find out."

Khanna-"Details?"

      Khanna was totally confused about what she was saying.

A-"About that phone call. I know he asked you to search about that number. So I want that information before you give it to Shivaay."

      Annika replied and Khanna was shocked.

Khanna-"Mam...Mam you....."

A-"I knew everything Khannaji. So please give me that information. It's very urgent. And please don't tell about it to Shivaay. I will tell him all details but you first share with me."

Khanna-"Ok mam. But there is one problem. I can't able to trace the details of that number. I called Shivaay sir and he gave me the time till tonight."

      Khanna said and Annika was disappointed.

A-"Ok fine. You take your time and search all information. But give me that information before him. Ok?"

Khanna-"Ok mam. But Shivaay sir....."

A-"You don't worry about him. I will tell him everything do he will not scold you. It's just that I want to see it before as he will never tell me if there is any big problem comes."

      Annika tried to convince Khanna and he agreed.

A-"Fine then call me when you get all the details. Bye."

      She cuts the call and then went inside. She went back to her desk. She resumed her work but didn't able to concentrate now as she was thinking about what was the problem that Shivaay is hiding from her this time.

A-"I have to do something before it's too late. But why I am worried, this time I will not do any stupid thing like last time. I will never go away from him now phir woh khud hi jaane bolenge na tab bhi nhi jaaungi."

     She said to herself and smiled.

A-"Shivaay don't know that I heard his conversation with Khanna. So he must be thinking I am just worried because he was angry. So I will also not ask him anything until Khanna gives those details."

      She decided and then resumed her work as she wanted to complete it soon. 
     

Shivaay's cabin,

      Shivaay was sitting on his chair. His mind was filled with many thoughts and he can't able to decide what is right and what is wrong.

S-"What to do? Should I tell Annika now? No no she is not perfectly fine till now. And also she is worried for Sahil."

      His one mind said this to him but again other one responded,

S-"No Shivaay you have to tell her now before it's too late. What if same thing happens now? No no Shivaay this time you have to tell her first."

      And Shivaay was very confused between these two thoughts. He just closed his eyes to decide and he recalled what happened on that fake marriage day. She was asking him what's the problem and he said he will tell her everything once he is back. But before he came back she got to know everything and then.....

      Shivaay opened his eyes.

S-"No no. I can't let it happen this time."

       He then remembered what happened to her on the day of Sahil's operation and he reached to the conclusion that he have to tell her each n everything now.

S-"Just do it Shivaay."

      He took a deep breath and went outside of his cabin. He came to Annika. She was too busy in her work that she didn't notice him. Shivaay was about to call her name but stopped as he saw tiffin box there. Shivaay remembered she came with that box sometime before and realized that she didn't eat her lunch just because of him. Cursing himself he called her,

S-"Annika....."

      Annika looked up and saw Shivaay there. She smiled.

A-"Shivaay"

      Shivaay was confused as she smiled at him. He thought she was angry or upset with him.

S-"Let's eat"

      He said looking at that tiffin box ignoring his thoughts for sometime.

A-"Yeah just one minute ha."

      She said with a smile before turning her gaze to the file she was working on. Shivaay just stood there looking at her trying to figure out why she is not asking about his behavior.

A-"Hmm it's done. Let's go."

      Annika said getting up from her chair and Shivaay came back from his thoughts.He just nodded and they went to his cabin. First Annika called on the hospital and asked Sahil about his lunch and when Sahil said he had it long ago she ended the call.

A-"Let's eat now I am too hungry."

      She said opening that tiffin box. Shivaay just came and sat beside her. And soon they finished their lunch.

S-"Annika....."

      Shivaay tried to talk but stopped as she got up from her seat.

A-"Shivaay I have to finish two more files before we go back. So I am going back to my desk now. And we can leave as soon as I finish my work. Byee"

      She said with a smile and then left from there without giving him chance to speak. Here, Shivaay was so confused.

S-"Why she is behaving out of character today. She is not behaving like typical Annika who knows how to get every information from me, who don't like when I am angry at her."

      Shivaay thought about it and then he felt that she was really upset with him for not sharing anything or may be for shouting at her like that.

S-"So madam is angry."

      He decided something and then smiled before going back to his work.

S-"Don't worry I will tell you each and everything soon. I will tell you everything tonight only."

      Finally Annika completed all her work till evening and both went to the hospital. When they were in the car Shivaay received phone call from Om. And after that phone call Annika noticed Shivaay was more tensed now. But she sat silently waiting for Khanna's call. Also Shivaay was trying to speak to her about afternoon matter but she was changing topics.

       After reaching to the hospital, Annika scolded Sahil for playing whole day and then scolds Rudra too for giving Sahil chocolates and chips. Shivaay chuckled looking at Sahil and Rudra's face and then looked around to see Om. But he was not there.

S-"Rudy where is Om?"

Rudra-"He went outside to call someone. No network in this room so."

      Rudra informed and Shivaay nodded thinking about something and then said,

S-"Annika I will go and get tea for you. You both want something?"

      He asked Sahil and Rudra but they said they had tea sometime before only. So Shivaay nodded and left from there. Annika noticed all this but didn't say anything.

      Shivaay came outside of the room and went towards the Canteen but met Om on the way.

Om-"Shivaay you came? Thank god. I want to tell you something. Very important."

S-"What happened Om?"

O-"Shivaay she came here today. When I went to check CCTV footage in the afternoon I saw one lady which was wearing a same scarf which suman said. I compared both footage and she was the same."

      Om said and Shivaay was more tensed now. Before he started thinking Om continued,

O-"Today that Suman was on leave. But when I called her she said that lady didn't call her today."

      Om said and then noticed Shivaay was in some thoughts.

O-"What happened Shivaay?"

      Shivaay came back from his thoughts and looked at Om.

S-"When she came? You checked time?"

O-"Yeah she was here in the time span 12:30-1:00"

S-"Ohh that means we were not here that time so she called me?"

      Shivaay murmured.

O-"What are you saying Shivaay?
I can't able to understand."

     Om was confused. Shivaay told him everything which happened in the office. And Om was shocked.

O-"Omg so she is here again Shivaay. To destroy your and bhabhi's relation."

S-"Don't worry Om. This time I will not allow her to do anything against us."

      Om smiled and said,

O-"I know you both will take care this time. But for that don't you think you have to tell bhabhi everything?"

S-"You are right Om. I also thought about it and decided to tell her everything tonight. And after hearing this I think what i decided is best."

       Shivaay said and something came in Om's mind.

O-"Shivaay do one thing. You and bhabhi go to bhabhi's house for tonight. There you can talk without any disturbance and if she will come here again then she don't able to trouble you. Once you tell bhabhi everything you both can handle it. Then if bhabi meets her too we don't have to worry."

      Om suggested and Shivaay thinks about it.

S-"Yeah you are right. But Annika...she will not agree."

O-"Don't worry. She will. I have solution. Come with me."

S-"Ok. But Om I am not going to tell her that thing haa."

O-"Ok fine. I know you want that to happen as we planned and trust me I am with you in this matter. As we have to collect many things before that revelation."

      Om said and Shivaay smiled.

O-"But you can tell bhabhi everything related to her right? So that your relation will not suffer again or she will not create any misunderstanding between you again. All other things we can see after that. And that thing will not do any harm to your and bhabhi's relation if we didn't disclose it now."

      Shivaay smilingly nodded to Om.

S-"First time you are agreed with me and I am happy."

O-"Because I too wants it in the way you planned. They deserve everything."

      Shivaay nodded and then they left from there and went back to Sahil's room. After reaching there Shivaay said he is having a headache as he did office work after many days. Annika asked him to go and get some medicine from the chemist in the hospital. But Om said,

O-"Bhabhi you both are looking so tired. And he is having headache too. So you guys go to home and come back tomorrow morning. So that you can take proper rest."

      Om suggested but Annika denied.

A-"No Om. I am fine. Do one thing you three go to Oberoi Mansion. I am here."

Rudra-"Bhabhi we just came before sometime. Chulbul bhabhi and Bhavya were with Sahil whole day. So now we both can stay here for tonight. You both really need rest so go and take rest."

      Rudra said as Om signalled him to do so.

A-"Nhi Rudy I am....."

Sa-"Didi you are looking tired too. And see SSO'S face he is very tired. So go and take rest. I will be fine with these two boys."

      Sahil too joined OmRu and after many protests Annika was finally ready to go to her house. She gave many instructions to Om as she knew Rudra and Sahil will never follow her instructions. Om agreed to all her warnings and finally shivika left from there.

      They came down and settled down in car. Annika was about to tie her seat belt when he held her hand and pulled her towards him. She looked at him shocked.

A-"What?"

S-"You are angry on me right?"

      Shivaay asked putting her hair strand behind her ears. She smiled.

A-"No I am not."

S-"I know you are. As I behaved like....."

A-"Like tadibaaz Singh Oberoi after many days. And you know right that I like it when you shows your Tadi."

      Shivaay smiled.

S-"I know but still I shouted at you without any reason and you didn't react to it."

A-"So you thought I am angry?"

      She asked and he nodded in yes. She smiled.

A-"I know you did some office work after many days and I also knows that you missed showing Tadi while doing your office work. So you did that. You were angry or frustrated on something and at that same time I came so you shouted simple."

      Shivaay smiled caressing her cheek.

S-"You are too good you know?"

A-"Yeah I know."

      She winked at him and he smiled.

A-"Now let's you. You are having headache na. Let's go I will massage your head with warm oil."

      Shivaay smilingly nodded and started his car.

S-"I just hope I will clear everything today."

      He said to himself. Annika looked at her phone.

A-"I hope Khannaji give details to me first. Then I will make everything fine soon may be today only."

      Annika thought and looked at the road as Shivaay took his car out of the hospital, to the main road.

Annika's house,

      Annika came outside of the bedroom after changing her clothes. She looked around but Shivaay was not there in the hall. So she went to the kitchen and saw him there.

A-"What are you doing?"

      Annika said coming to him and then saw at kitchen counter. In one bowl potatoes were boiling and he was kneading the wheat dough.

A-"Aloo-Puri??"

      She asked surprisingly. He just looked at her and smiled sweetly before turning to his work again.

A-"But why?"

S-"Because my wife loves Aloo-Puri."

      He winked at her and again concentrated on his work. Annika smiled as she heard that sentence.

A-"What did you say? Say it again?"

S-"Because my wife loves Aloo-Puri"

A-"Again....."

      Annika again asked him to repeat and he stared at her confused.

S-"Annika what....."

      He stopped as he noticed some tears in her eyes.

S-"What?"

      Shivaay asked forwarding his hand to wipe her tears but stopped as his eyes were covered with flour. She just nodded in no wiping her tears.

S-"Tell me what happened?"

A-"Nothing."

S-"Annika....."

A-"Shivaay I am fine.... now stop questioning me.

S-"But....."

      She cutted him in between.

A-"Nothing...stop investigation now. And tell me, you were tired na? N having headache? So what's the need to cook. I can make..... I mean order the food"

      Shivaay raised his eyebrows so she changed last sentence. He chuckled.

S-"But I want to make it for you. You know na I loves to cook for you."

      She smiled.

S-"Now tell me what happened?"

      Shivaay asked again. She nodded in no.

S-"Annika....."

      She came close to him and gave a peck on his cheek slowly. He looked at her surprised.

S-"What's this?"

A-"I am so glad I chose you as a husband."

      She said and Shivaay smiled but gave reply,

S-"Excuse me, I chose you as my wife."

      Shivaay said proudly and Annika knew he was right so she can't win this argument. So she said,

A-"Ok whatever. What I wanted to say is, I am happy that my husband can able to cook for me. Else what would have happened to me?"

      Shivaay chuckled.

S-"Nothing. Just you could have to eat burnt or undercooked food for your whole life. Like your burnt paneer masala. Remember?"

      Shivaay teased and she looked here and there.

A-"Woh.....I.....don't need to talk about past. Leave past in the past only."

      She said making grumpy face and he chuckled.

S-"You are so cute."

A-"That's my line."

      She said fake angrily.

S-"But now I used it. Now go from here.  I have to concentrate on cooking. So don't disturb me. You go and take some rest. I will come with your Aloo-Puri."

      Shivaay ordered her turning off the flame.

A-"But...I want to be here...also I can help you na"

      She said taking knife from his hand but he snatched it again.

S-"Annika..... Go."

      Shivaay sternly said and she had yo agree. She nodded making faces and left from there. Shivaay smiled and resumed his work.

      Shivaay came with Aloo-Puri after sometime and saw her sitting on the sofa and she was watching TV. He came to her and turned off the TV. She turned to look at him.

A-"Why??"

S-"Let's eat first"

      She looked at the table and saw her favorite dish made by her favorite person.

A-"Yaayy it's done?"

S-"Yeah"

      He said sitting beside her.

A-"But your food?"

      She said as she noticed only Aloo-Puri on the table. He smiled taking some Aloo-Puri in the plate and showing it to her.

A-"But Shivaay this is oily. And you don't like oily food."

S-"Ab aadat ho gayi hai... Just like you became my habit."

      She nodded but on next second punch on his arm.

A-"Mein sirf aadat hu aapki?"

S-"Yeah.....what else could be?"

      Shivaay said winking at her and she looked away angrily.

S-"Accha let's eat now. I am hungry."

A-"But I am not. I don't want to eat."

      She said still looking at the other direction.

S-"Annika eat. Or else I will finish the whole plate. I made it after  one whole month specially for you. But now if you....."

      He stopped as she turned to look at him immediately. He looked at her eyes.

S-"What??"

      He asked confused looking at her moist eyes.

A-"Nothing."

      She said with a small smile. He put the plate aside.

S-"So why you are crying now?"

     He asked cupping her face.

A-"You...you made it after so many days na....I mean...I....."

      She didn't able to complete as she was too emotional. He smiled touching his forehead with hers.

S-"I know what you mean. I can understand your emotions. But sometime before you only said keep the past in the past itself. Right? So now you also apply same on your thoughts."

      Shivaay said slowly looking into her eyes. They were still in the same position. Shivaay continued,

S-"And I promise, from today onwards I will cook Aloo-Puri for you whenever you want to eat. "

      Shivaay said and she just hugged him tightly. Shivaay smiled hugging her back. They stayed in each others embrace for sometime.

A-"Why you are so good?"

       She asked after some minutes. Shivaay smiled.

S-"Because you are the best. And I want to live with you. So I should have to behave like good na if I want to stay with best person."

      Shivaay said and she looked up at him. Shivaay too looked at her and they shared an eyelock. Annika caressed his subtle with her fingers lovingly and he kissed her fingers. They were still looking at each other.

A-"I lo....."

      Annika was about to say but stopped and moved back breaking the hug. Shivaay was confused.

S-"Why did you stop? Complete it."

      Shivaay said coming close to her but she pushed him lightly and turned her gaze to the table.

A-"Let's eat. Garma garam Aloo-Puri."

      She said taking that plate in her hand.

S-"No first tell me why you stopped?"

      Shivaay tried to snatch that plate but she didn't allow.

S-"Annika say it. Ruk kyu gayi?"

      She looked at him smiling sweetly.

A-"Because I want you to say that first."

S-"First? But we said that many times to each other."

      He asked confused.

A-"Haa but after...after that incident, I want you to say it first."

      Annika stated and he rolled his eyes.

S-"Offo don't tell me this is another competition for you."

A-"Ohh that's very great idea."

S-"Annika not again."

A-"So say it."

      Shivaay looked at her but then smirked.

S-"I said that many times in last one month also. So now your turn".

A-"But you said that when I was unconscious"

      Annika said and Shivaay looked at her surprised and then nodded his head in disbelief.

S-"You searched all things about me haa? What's the need of this much investigation?"

      She smiled sweetly.

S-"What? Answer me?"

A-"No first you say it again."

S-"Not at all. You will say it."

A-"Don't challenge me."

S-"Ab de diya. And remember I won every time."

A-"Fine. But this time you will not win."

S-"Let's see"

A-"Hmm let's see"

      Annika said folding her hands.

S-"Now let's eat first. I am hungry."

      Shivaay said taking plate from her hands and she nodded. He feed her. She did the same and soon they finished their dinner like that.

      After they finished their dinner Shivaay went to do dishes and Annika helped him. They came back into the hall again and Shivaay said,

S-"Annika....."

      She stopped in her tracks.

A-"Hmm"

      She said looking at him and noticed his tensed face.

S-"Annika I... I...I want to tell you something."

A-"What?"

      Shivaay held her hand and made her sit on the sofa and sat on the floor in front of her.

A-"What are you doing? Come sit here."

      She said patting on place beside her.

S-"No I am fine. Now you listen to me carefully."

A-"What happened Shivaay?"

     Shivaay just asked her to keep  quiet and listen to him.

A-"Hmm....bolo."

      Shivaay went to the table near the door and came back with one blue file. She looked at him confused. He again sat in front of her.

A-"What's this?"

S-"First promise me, you will listen what I wants to say. Then only you will react. Promise?"

A-"Aisa kya hai is file me Shivaay?"

      Shivaay held her hands and looked directly into her eyes.

S-"Annika that day when I was going to Delhi, one girl...who is working with Dr. Shah met me and gave me these papers."

     Shivaay said looking at her.

A-"Dr. Shah?? Means jinke pass hum gaye the for pregnancy test?"

      Shivaay nodded.

A-"What's in these papers then?"

     Annika said and turned her gaze to the file. She opened it and read it carefully and then looked at Shivaay shockingly. Shivaay said still looking at her eyes,

S-"That girl who is working as nurse said you asked her to change your reports into negative."
