*****************************
Oberoi Mansion,
    Shivika came after visiting Annika's house. Shivika came inside OM when all family members were sitting in the hall and worried for Annika. Gauri looked at shivika first. She jumped in happiness and came to Annika and hugs her.

Gauri-"Di where were you all day? I tried to contact you but your phone was switched off. "

Annika-"Relax Gauri. I am ok. Don't worry."

Pinky-"Worries kaise na ho? You are careless girl."

Daadi-"Are ab aa gayi na woh. Kyu daant rahe ho?"

     Daadi said and all nodded. Shivaay was searching for Mallika but she was not there.

Shivaay-"Daadi ab Ruvya ki engagement tak Annika yahi rahegi."

P-"Really. I am so happys."

    Pinky said and hugs Annika.

D-"Acchi baat hai. Pinky jaa Annika ko guest room dikha de. "

P-"Ji mummiji "

S-"Ek minute , guest room kyu? Annika toh mere room me rahegi na?" 😂😂

A-"WHAT??"

All-"Shivaay are you mad?"

Rudra(to Om)-"I think bhaiya ki bhi memory gayi hai." 😂😂

Om-"Shsh....."

S-"What happened? I was saying ki guest room ki kya jaroorat hai. Annika mere room me rahegi aur me guest room me reh lunga."

R-"Oh... Mujhe laga ki....." 😉😉😉

S-"Shut up Rudy. Mom aap Annika ko mere room me le jaana."

A-"No no. Please mere liye kisiko adjust krne ki jaroorat nhi hai. Me guest room me reh lungi."

S-"Are par guest room is too small."

A-"It's ok."

Bhavya-"Annika didi aap mere saath rehna dusre guest room me."

Janhvi-"Haa yeh thik hoga."

D-"Annika beta tujhe koi problem nhi hai na?"

A-"Ji nahi daadi. In fact mujhe accha lagega Bhavya ke saath rehna."

G-"Ok phir hum teeno wahi rahenge"

A-"Ek minute, me yaha rehne aayi hu taaki tu apni family aur pati ke saath time spend kr sake. Chupchap apne Omkaraji ke saath reh." 😂😂

G(frowned)-"Thik hai."

B-"Chalo didi hum aapko room me le chalte hu."

    Annika nodded and left with Bhavya.

D-"Billu, ab Annika thik hai?"

S-"Haa daadi,she is ok now. Par ab Mallika ka topic mat nikalna uske saamne. Maine use bataya ki mere aur Mallika ke beech me aisa kuch nhi hai."

P-"Hmm. Accha hua."

S-"But mom,where is Mallika? "

J-"Are use Siddharth ka call aaya tha. Kuch kaam hai unke company ka toh woh chali gayi."

S-"Gussa thi kya mujh par?"

P-"Nahi. 2-4 din ke baad aane wali hai."

S-"Haa phir thik hai. Tab baat krta hu usse."

R-"Bhaiya aaj puri family hai yaha toh obros kitchen moment ho jaaye??"

O-"Haa chalo."

S-"Ok. Tum log chalo me change krke aata hu."

In kitchen,
O-"Toh kya banaye?"

R-"Yeh bhi puchne ki baat hai. Aaj bhabhi yaha hai toh bhaiya aloo-puri hi banayenge na?"

S-"Yup."

    They started with potatoes  first. Gauri and Bhavya drag Annika to the kitchen with them. Rudra noticed them,

R-"Hello lovely ladies "

    Shivaay looked up and smiled looking at Annika.

A-"Hello. Kya ho raha hai yaha?"

R-"Bha..... I mean didi ise obro moment kehte hai. Hum yaha khana banate hai,gaane gate hai,kisika majjak udate hai,etc,etc" 😂😂

A-"Ok ok. Toh aaj kya bana rahe ho?"

S-"Tum batao tumhe kya khana hai?"

A-"Me jo batau wo karenge?"

S-"Of course. Aapka hukoom sar aankho par" 😉😉

     Annika blushed at his answer and looked down. OmRu and Gauri Bhavya give teasing smile to Shivaay. He glared at them.

S-"Batao jaldi kya khana hai?"

A-"Pav-bhaji "

S-"Chowpaty style???"

A-"No no. Restaurant style. And haa jyada oily mat banana. Aur last time ki tarah sugar mat add krna usme. Nahi toh me nhi khaungi. " 😳😳😳

    All looked at her shocked. Rudra and Shivaay looked at each other and then at Annika. Annika raised her eyebrow in confusion.

S-"What did you say?"

A-"Kya?? Haa I said don't add too much oil in that. "

R-"No after that."

A-"Warna me khaungi nhi."

B-"Nahi uske pehle"

A-"Uske pehle..... Ha yahi ki oily mat banana."

G-"Di aur bhi kuch kaha tha yaad kro."

A-"Nahi toh."

O-"Haa kaha tha. Aur waisa hi aapne past me bhi kaha tha ek baar"

R-"Haa didi yaad kro."

    Annika tried to remember it. She closed her eyes and tried to remember it. She was looking tensed. Shivaay called her,

S-"Annika....."

     She opened her eyes and said,

A-"H..... Haa"

S-"Leave it. Koi important baat nhi thi. Koi baat nhi yaad nhi aaya toh."

A-"Par yaad aana chahiye na...."

R-"Are chodo didi aajayega baad me. Abhi hum pav-bhaji banate hai."

S-"Haa. Chalo."

    They again starts their work.

B-"I think hume chalna chahiye. "

G-"Haa in bhayiyo ko ek saath rehne dete hai."

     Annika nodded and they turned to go. But Shivaay called them.

S-"Kaha jaa rahi ho?"

B-"Hum bahar hai bhaiya. Aap log apna obro moment enjoy krna."

S-"Haa woh toh hum kr hi rahe hai. Par tum log bhi ruko yaha. Help krdo hamari."

    They nodded and smiled at him. Shivaay made bhaji.

A-"Me bread roast krti hu "

S-"Nahi me kr lunga"

A-"Please me krti hu na"

S-"Ok but careful."

     Annika nodded and starts her work. She was roasting bread but her eyes on all of them. They were enjoying each other's company. She smiled at their bond.

A-"Aah....." She kept her hand on pan instead of bread. 😂

      Shivaay came to her immediately and took her hand in his.

S-"Kya hua? Dhyaan kaha tha tumhara? Kaha tha na ki me krta hu."

    He was scolding her. She was continusly looking at him.

S-"Me tumse baat kr raha hu"

A-"H....haa. Sorry mera dhyaan nhi tha."

S-"Ab koi kaam nhi krogi. Chalo mere saath."

    He dragged her to the wash basin and held her hand in cold water. She was looking at him without blinking her eyes. He looked at her and both lost in each other's eyes. OmRu and Gauri-Bhavya smiled.

B-"I think hume unhe privacy deni chahiye."

G-"Haa chalo yaha se"

    They left from there. Shivaay looked at her hand and wiped it with his handkerchief. He was so lost in her hand. Annika noticed that others left.

A-"Sab kaha chale gaye?"

S-"Bahar gaye honge. Waise bhi sab kaam ho hi gaya hai " he said but he knows that they want to give them some privacy.

    Shivaay was applying cream on her wound and blowing on it. She smiled at his care.

A-"Aap aur OmRu kitne acche lagte ho na saath me."

S-"Hmm."

A-"But you know, OmRu are lucky "

S-"Why??"

A-"Gauri and Bhavya kitni khush thi aap ko saath dekh ke. Nahi toh kuch ladkiyo ko problem hoti hai ghar ke baaki logo se. But woh dono toh khud aapko space de rahi thi. Toh OmRu lucky hai na kitni acchi life partner mili hai unko."

S-"In that case I am very lucky."

A-"Kaise?"

S-"Meri wife ko toh koi bhi problem nhi hai I mean hogi. She knows ki mere liye family kitni important hai aur hamesha support krti hai I mean kregi mere decisions ko."

A-"Accha... Matlab aapki Shaadi hui nhi aur aap itni taarif kr rahe hai uski." 😂😂😂

S-"Haa. Lakho me ek hogi na woh. Mujhe samjhti bhi hai aur bahut pyaar bhi krti hai."

A-"Aapko abhi se kaise pata ki kya kregi?"

S-"Are soul mate hai woh meri. Itna toh pata chalta hai na."

A-"Hmm. Waise Om ki shaadi kabki ho chuki. Aur ab Rudra ki bhi ho rahi hai. Aap un dono ke bade bhai hai. Aapko nhi lagta ki aapko bhi Shaadi krni chahiye ab."

S-"Toh tum chahti ho ki me Shaadi kru?"

A-"Haa. Krleni chahiye."

S-"Accha. Par thodi der pehle toh me Shaadi kr raha tha isliye ro rahi thi aur ab bol rahi ho ki Shaadi krlu." 😂😂😂

A-"Haa woh.... Woh...."

    Shivaay smiled and moved close to her.

S-"Haa aage bolo..."

    He said and hold her both hands.

A-"Woh... Woh... Ha maine isiliye aisa kaha tha ki Mallika aapke liye sahi ladki nhi hai. I mean woh acchi hai. But aapke liye nhi." 😂

S-"Accha toh Mallika se nhi. Tum chahti ho ki me kisi aur se Shaadi kru. Koi hai kya par ladki."

    He said and came close to her.

A-"Haa hai na.....woh me...."

S-"Tum?? Tum kya....."

     He said and tucked her hairs behind her ears and looked straight in her eyes.

S-"Bolo tum... Tum kya?"

A-"Kuch nhi."

    She came out of his hold and turned to go. He held her wrist.

A-"Shivaay kya kr rahe hai?"

S-"Me kya kr raha hu? Tum bolo na aage kisse Shaadi kru me ha??"

    He came towards her and whispered in her ears. She shievered by his touch.

A-"Woh... Me yeh keh rahi thi ke.... Aap Shaadi...."

S-"Haa. Me Shaadi....."

    "Annika...."Daadi called her. Annika came out of his hold and ran from there. Shivaay smiled at her.

      After dinner all retired to their room. Annika and Gauri was applying mehandi on Bhavya's hands in guest room. Janhvi came there.

J-" Ho gayi mehandi?"

G-"Ji ho gayi."

J-"Good. Bhavya ye tumhare liye."

    She said and gave 4 gift boxes to Bhavya.

B-"Maa,ye kya hai?"

J-"Tumhare liye gifts. I mean shagun."

B-"Thank you."

J-"Gauri yeh tumhare liye."

G-"Hume kyu? Engagement toh Bhavya ki hai na?"

J-"Haa par tum bhi toh meri bahu ho na?"

     Gauri nodded and Janhvi smiled and hugged them. Annika was looking at their bond. Pinky came there.

P-"Jethani ji, aap yaha?"

J-"Haa inn logo ko gifts dene aayi thi."

P-"Are wa. Me bhi wahi krne aayi thi."

J-"Good. Aur Annika yeh tumhare liye."

A-"Mere liye? Nahi aunty, iski koi jaroorat nhi hai."

J-"Gifts ko naa nahi bolte Annika. "
A-"Nahi aunty, Gauri and Bhavya toh iss ghar ki bahu hai me toh bahar....."

P-"Khabardaar agar tune khudko bahar wala kaha toh. Tu bhi isi ghar ka hissa(part) hai."

A-"Par aunty....."

J-"Annika ab koi par war nhi. Le lo chup chap se."

      Annika smiled and take gift from Janhvi.

P-"Annika dekh me tere liye kya laayi hu. Yeh outfits tujhpe bahut accha lagega."

A-"Thank you aunty. But yeh toh costly hoga na"

P-"Haa toh. Tumse jyada costly nhi hai. Engagement me tum yahi pehanana phir dekhna Shivaay..... I mean sab tumhe hi dekhte reh jaayenge."

A-"Aunty engagement Bhavya ki hai."

P-"Pata hai mujhe. Par wedding planner bhi toh khubsurat lagni chahiye, hai na jethani ji."

J-"Haa. Ab tum log rest kro. Kal bahut kaam hai."

P-"Haa. Gauri , Bhavya yeh lo tumhare liye gifts. Ab so jao."

     Girls took blessings from Pinky and Janhvi. Pinky and Janhvi left from there.

Next morning,
     Shivaay was ready early in the morning as he and Annika wants to visit the hospital. Shivaay came out from his room and went to guest room. But Annika was not there. Bhavya said that she was in kitchen so Shivaay came to the kitchen. But she was not there also. He searched her everywhere. At last he came to the hall and saw her.
       Annika was giving some instructions to servents. Shivaay smiled at her. After servents left, Annika climbed on the stool and started doing decorations. Shivaay looked at her in disbelief. He came to her immediately.

S-"Annika..... "

    Annika looked down and smiled at him.

A-"Shivaay aap? Good morning "

S-"Good morning. What are you doing? "

A-"Dekh sakte hai na aap? 😂 Decorations kr rahi hu."

S-"Haa I can see that. But tum kyu kr rahi ho?"

A-"Wedding planner kaun hai? Me na?? Toh aur kaun krega?"

S-"Haa I know ki tum ho wedding planner. Par yeh sab krne ke liye servents hai na? Tum neeche aao."

A-"Servents ke liye aur bhi kaam hai. Aur aap kya kr rahe hai yaha?"

S-"Pehle tum neeche aao."

A-"Shivaay me kaam kr rahi hu. Aapko koi kaam nhi hai kya? Jayiye aur kaam kijiye."

S-"Haa kaam hi kr raha hu. Tum neeche aao."

A-"Kyu?"

S-"Annika neeche aao warna....."

A-"Shivaay subah subah mera dimaag mat khao. Jao mujhe kaam krne do. Aaj mujhe bahut kuch kaam hai."

S-"Bhul gayi na tum? Hume hospital jaana hai."

A-"Oh. Haa. Ek kaam kro. Aaj rehne dete hai me jaati hu Ruvya ki engagement ke baad."

S-"No way. Abhi jaana hai. Rakesh se appointment li hai maine."

A-"Haa toh. Aapka friend hai na toh cancel kr dena ab appointment. Me chali jaungi baad me."

S-"Tumhe mere saath aane me problem hai?"

A-"Nahi toh....."

S-"Phir aao neeche and chalo."

A-"Shivaay ek baar keh diya toh samajh nhi aata kya aapko? Me nahi aaungi."

S-"Annika seedhe bol raha hu chalo warna....."

A-"Warna kya....."

S-"Warna yeh....."

      Shivaay lifts her from stool and hold her in his arms. Annika looked at him shocked. She wiggled in his arms to came out of his hold. But he hold her more tightly.

A-"Shivaay what are you doing? "

S-"Seedhe seedhe baat samajh nhi aati na tumhe. Toh ab chale?"

A-"Shivaay why can't you understand. Bahut kaam hai yaha. Baad me chalenge. "

S-"Mere liye tumhare health ke alawa aur kuch bhi important nhi hai." 😍

A-"Shivaay..... "

S-"Kaam ho jaayega baad me. Me help kardunga tumhari. Ab chale? "

A-"Par Shivaay....."

      She stopped in middle and looked shocked. Shivaay gets confused by her behavior and looked up. He also shocked as whole family standing there with teasing smile. Shivaay immediately left her and she composed herself and stands on her feet. They both looked at each other and then at family members. All started laughing loudly at them. Shivaay blushed hard and said ,

S-"Aap log yaha? "

O-"Haa. Kyu? Koi problem hai?"

S-"Na..... Nahi. Kabse ho yaha aap sab?"

R-"Kabse hai Om? Haa. Jabse aap Annika didi ko dhamka rahe the na ki neeche aao warna..... Tabse yahi hai hum log. Hai na gharwalo?" 😂😂😂😂

     All nodded. Shivaay looked at Annika. She was looking down and her face is all red due to blushing. He said in low voice,

S-"I am waiting outside,come fast."

    And left from there before anyone asks him any questions.
Annika looked at him shocked. She stood there only with her head down.

D-"Annika..... "

A-"J..... Ji....."

D-"Jaana nhi hai?"

A-"Ha..... Woh..... Me...   Shivaay..... Hospital..... "

R-"Didi aap kehna kya chahte ho?"

A-"Janhvi aunty, hospital jaana hai. Me jaau? Aane ke baad saara kaam kr dungi"

      She said in one go. All laughed at her. Janhvi nodded. Annika immediately turned to go but Pinky called her.

A-"J..... Ji aunty"

P-"Aaram se aana hume koi jaldi nhi hai,hai na?" 😂

      She said looking at others all laughed and nodded in no. Annika looked down embarrassed and ran from there. All laughed at them.

R-"Kitne Dino baad inka tadi wala romance dekha na?""

P-"Haa bada maja aaya."

D-"Kitne dino baad maine Billu aur Annika ko aisa dekha. Warna aajkal toh Annika ko kuch yaad nhi hai aur Billu bhi udaas rehta hai"

Tej-"Don't worry maa. Sab thik ho jaayega."

In car,
      Annika was silent through out the journey. She was looking outside.

S-"What happened Annika? "

      She nodded in negative.

S-"Toh itni chup kyu ho? Kya hua?"

A-"Kuch nahi."

S-"Kuch toh hai batao mujhe."

A-"I am sorry."

S-"Sorry kis liye?"

A-"Woh....m woh jo abhi gh.....ghar me hua na. Uske liye. Sabko kya laga hoga?"

S-"Are kuch nhi. Un logo ko toh aadat hai in sabki."

A-"Matlab? "

S-"Kuch nhi. Tum jyada socho mat."

A-"Are aise kaise nhi sochu. Sabko kya laga hoga mere baare me. Mujhe aap ki baat sunani chahiye thi aur neeche aana chahiye tha."

S-"Kaha tha maine. But ab chodo na kyu soch rahi ho?"

A-"Aapke family ko kya laga hoga? Aisa toh nhi laga hoga na ki me aapko fasa rahi hu." 😂😂😂😂😂

S-"Kya??"

A-"K..... Kuch nhi. Chodo me unse maafi maang lungi baad me."

S-"Uski koi jaroorat nhi hai. Ok? "

      Annika nodded but she decided to tell Pinky and Daadi that she was innocent and she is not fasaoing Shivaay. 😂😂😂😂
     
In hospital,
   
Rakesh checked her and asked,

Rakesh-"Now how are you feeling? Ab dard nhi hota na sar me?"

A-"Nahi "

Rakesh-"Good. Ab aap yeh batao ki kuch yaad aaya aapko?"

A-"Haa. Matlab mujhe kuch thik se nhi dikhayi deta but kuch yaad aata hai. Me thik se dikhayi deti hu but jo mere saath hota hai us time woh nhi dikhta. If I tried to remember only some scenes flashes before my eyes."

Rakesh-"Ok aur kuch."

A-"Haa. Jab us din me Shivaay ke room me gayi thi toh aisa laga me waha pehle aayi thi. Aur bahut kuch hua tha waha but kuch thik se nhi yaad aata."

      Shivaay and Rakesh looked at each other.

Rakesh-"Ok. Don't worry. Sab yaad aajayega. But please khud ko koi stress mat dena. Jab yaad aana hoga aa jaayega. Tension ki koi baat nhi hai."

A-"Ok."

Rakesh-"Now can you please wait outside? Mujhe Shivaay se kuch baat krni hai. Don't worry aapke case ke baare me nhi hai. Kuch aur kaam hai."

      Annika smiled and left the room.  Shivaay was looking at Rakesh with confused expressions.

S-"Kya hua Rakesh?"

Rakesh-"Shivaay tune notice kiya na bhabhi ko bahut kuch yaad aa raha hai."

S-"Haa. Bas use aur koi nhi dikhta clearly. But jab use kuch yaad nhi aata woh panic ho jaati hai. Aur phir headache start hota hai."

Rakesh-"Right. Aur kya woh koshish krti rehti hai baar baar yaad krne ki."

S-"Haa use kaha na ki stress mat do,sab yaad aajayega. Par phir bhi koshish krti rehti hai."

Rakesh-"Isi baat  darr hai."

S-"Darr?? Kaisa darr?

Rakesh-"Dekho jab aise patients ko kuch yaad nhi aata. Toh woh confused hote hai aur unhe lagta hai ki kisi bhi condition me unhe yaad aana hi chahiye. Toh woh sab jagah se information collect krte hai taaki unhe kuch yaad aaye. Aur khud ko stress dete hai. Jyada stress diya toh phir brain pe effect ho sakta hai."

S-"Toh iska koi solution toh hoga na...."

Rakesh-"Dekh, bhabhi ki case me dono problem hai. Ek toh hum unhe past ke baare me nhi bata sakte. Bataya toh woh tumse aur baaki sabse nafrat karengi aur unhe takleef bhi hogi."

S-"And second??"

Rakesh-"Bhabhi jarror try kregi unke past ke baare me jaanane ki. Toh unko kahi se pata chalega toh problem ho jaayegi and baar baar try krne se unke brain ko bhi effect hoga."

S-"Toh ab hume kya krna chahiye?"

Rakesh-"Dekho pehli baat toh kahi se bhi bhabhi ko kuch bhi past ka pata nhi chalna chahiye. Nahi toh problem ho jaayegi. And second unko stress free rakhna hoga."

S-"Hmm. You don't worry me sab handle krdunga."

Rakesh-"Ha I know. But careful. Dekho me tumhe darana nhi chahta but agar bhabhi ne jyada stress liya na toh brain ko effect hoga aur....."

S-"Aur....."

Rakesh-"Aur phir may be fir se memory loss ho sakta hai "

S-"What???"

Rakesh-"Haa. Aur jo sab unki memory jaane ke baad hua woh bhi bhul jaayegi woh. Phir se bhul jaayegi ki yeh sab kya chal raha hai. Woh kaun hai."

S-"No no no. Me aisa nhi hone dunga."

Rakesh-"Relax Shivaay. Agar proper care nhi rakhi toh aisa ho sakta hai. And I know tum bhabhi ka khayal acche se rakh rahe ho. Bas ek kaam krna."

S-"Kya??"

Rakesh-"Bhabhi ko kabhi akele mat rehne dena. Hamesha koi na koi saath hoga toh woh stress nhi legi and past ke baare me search bhi nhi kregi."

S-"Ok. Me dhyaan rakhunga."

Rakesh-"Ok. Ab jaa sakte ho. Haa agar koi problem ho toh call krna mujhe."

S-"Haa aur kal aana Rudra ki engagement hai. Bye."

Rakesh-"Haa jaroor.Bye."

    Shivaay said and left his cabin. He cam outside and saw Annika was talking with one small girl. He smiled at her antiques but suddenly he remembered what Rakesh said,

S(mind)-"Nahi me kuch nhi hone dunga tumhe. Agar kuch ho gaya aur tum phir se mujhe bhul..... Nahi agar aisa hua na me nhi handle kr paaunga." 😭😭😭

    He was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't realize that Annika standing in front of him. Annika waves her hand in front of his eyes. He came out from his thoughts.

S-"H.....Haa"

A-"Kaha khoye ho?"

S-"Kahi nhi. Let's go."

A-"Shivaay what happened? Why you are looking sad. Is everything ok? Doctor ne kya kaha?"

S-"Kitna bolti ho. Kuch nhi hua. Rakesh ka woh kuch financial problem tha. Uske baare me hi baat kr rahe the. Chalen ab?"

A-"Haa"

    They both left from there and settled down in the car.

In car,
    Shivaay was driving the car silently. Annika can easily figure out that something is wrong with him. She called him,

A-"Shivaay..... "

S-"Haa. Kya hua?"

A-"Kuch nhi"

S-"Ok "
   
    Shivaay again starts driving. Annika did the same thing 2-3 times but Shivaay only answered her questions. She said,

A-"Mr. Oberoi "

S-"Haa"

A-"Kuch nahi."

S-"Ok "

A-"Shivaay stop the car."

S-"What?? "

A-"I said stop the car."

S-"Ok. Waise bhi ghar aa gaya. Tumhe kahi jaana tha?"

A-"Shivaay kya hua hai aapko?"

S-"Kuch bhi toh nhi "

A-"Accha? Something is wrong. Maine aapko Mr. Oberoi bulaya phir bhi aapne react nhi kiya."

     Shivaay remembered their conversation.

S-"Oh. Toh tum chahti ho ki me react kru??"
   
    He said coming close to her seat.

A-"N...no no no I mean...."

S-"Tumne isliye Mr. Oberoi kaha na ki me kuch aisa kru....."

      He said and held her cheek with his right hand. Annika removed seatbelt and moved out of the car and said,

A-"Cheapde....."

    She said and ran inside the mansion. Shivaay looked at her surprised.

S-"Cheapde?? Usne yahi kaha na? Iska matlab..... Nahi Shivaay woh aise hi koi word bolti hai aur bhul jaati hai."

    He said and went behind her.

Oberoi Mansion,
    Shivika came inside and greet all other family members.

P-"Oh my maata. Aa gaye tum log? Annika kya kaha doctor ne? "

A-"Kuch nhi aunty. Everything is normal."

    She said and looked at Shivaay. But he was lost somewhere.

D-"Accha hua. Ab sab thik hai."

A-"H..... Haa. Daadi ab me preparations ka dekhti hu."

J-"Haa chalo ab sab kaam krte hai."

P-"Haa Annika bata de kisko kya krna hai?"

A-"Aunty uski koi jaroorat nhi hai. Me sab kr lungi."

S-"No way. Sab saath me krenge."

A-"Par wedding planner toh me hu na??"

O-"Toh aap hume guide kro ki krna kya hai? And now no more arguments. Kaam krna hai bahut saara."

A-"Ok. "

    All started doing preparations. Shivaay was all the time with Annika helping her in each work. But his mind was somewhere else. Annika tried to ask reason many times but every time he divert the topic.

      Finally all arrangements done in the evening. All were tired so had dinner and left to their rooms.
      Annika also went to her room.But sleep was far away from Annika's eyes. She wants to know the reason behind Shivaay's behavior. She don't know why but she can't able to see him sad. She slowly got up from bed and came out of the room. She went to Shivaay's room. She knocked on the door. But no response. So she opened the door and peeped inside. But Shivaay was not there. She came inside and searched for Shivaay. But he was no where to be seen. Suddenly she saw him near the pool side.
      She came there immediately and saw that Shivaay was watching something on laptop and smiling to himself. She came in front of her and called him,

A-"Shivaay..... "

    Shivaay looked up and saw Annika was standing there. He immediately close the laptop and got up from the sofa.

S-"Tu..... Tum yaha?"

A-"Haa. Kya kr rahe hai aap?"

S(murmured)-"Tumhare pics dekh raha hu."

A-"What??"

S-"Kuch nhi. Kaam tha kuch office ka. Par tum yaha? So nhi gayi abtak?"

A-"Nahi. Neend nhi aa rahi thi."

S-"Kyu? Are you ok? Kahi dard ho raha hai? Doctor ke paas chalen? "

A-"Relax Shivaay. Kuch nhi hua hai mujhe. Par aapko kya hua hai?"

S-"Mujhe kya hua hai? Kuch nhi."

A-"Accha?? Toh subah se aise kyu behave kr rahe hai? Koi problem hai?"

S-"Kuch nhi. Jao so jao. "

    He said and turned to go. Annika held his wrist. He looked back at her.

S-"????"

A-"Aap mujhe apna friend maante hai na?"

    Shivaay nodded in agreement.

A-"Toh batayiye mujhe, kya problem hai. Kuch na kuch toh jaroor hua hai."

S-"Annika..... "

A-"Batayiye jaldi. Agar nhi bataya toh me aapse baat nhi karungi kabhi bhi nhi."

S-"Annika..... Ok batata hu. Woh..... Woh ek deal ki problem ho gayi hai."

A-"Haa toh. Deal hi hai na Shivaay it's ok."

S-"No it's not ok. Sabse important deal hai woh mere liye. Darr lag raha hai ki kahi me use kho na du. " 😭😭😭

A-"Shivaay, aapko kya lagta hai woh deal aapki hogi?"

S-"Haa chahe kuch bhi ho jaaye par meri hi hogi deal."

A-"Bas toh phir. Aapko pata hai Shivaay agar hum sacche mann se koi maange toh jaroor milta hai. Haa problems and difficulties aati hai,par end me sab thik ho hi jaata hai."

    Shivaay looked at her surprised. He couldn't handle it anymore. He hugs Annika. Annika stumbled for a second but then smiled and hugs him back. Shivaay closed his eyes and wiped his tears. He broke the hug and looked at her.

S-"Woh....Woh I am sorry... Actually woh....."

A-"It's ok Shivaay. Friends can hug,hai na? Don't worry. Ab thik hai aap?"

S-"Haa. Ab jao so jao bahut raat ho chuki hai."

A-"Haa. Aap bhi so jayiye. Jyada sochiye mat."

S-"Haa. Good night."

A-"Good night. Sweet dreams."

S(murmured)-"Haa tum hi aati ho dreams me toh sweet honge hi."

A-"Kuch kaha?"

S-"Nahi. Jao so jao."

A-"Haa."

      Annika left from there and Shivaay smiled at her and he also left from there.
