At morning 5'o clock,

The sun was rising and its rays fall on the couple. Laksh opened his eyes first and looked down his chest to find the woman he had fallen for, sleeping cutely. He couldn't help but place a light kiss on her forehead. She moaned and cuddled into him closer. Laksh chuckled at her activity. He feels good to have someone in his arms while he starts a new day of his life. He was gazing at her with love. He slowly placed butterfly kisses on her cheeks making her squirm.

"Mmm... go away!" He heard her muttering while rubbing her cheeks where he kissed.

He chuckled and pocks her cheeks finding her irritated face funny whereas for Ragini, she wants to kill that thing which was disturbing her beauty. So, she waited like a hunter for his prey and suddenly attacked it when that thing was inattentive. Laksh pulled away his finger with a yelp. He got so lost in his entertainment that he didn't mind what she was doing. She had bitten his finger. He looked down at her to find her grinning with still eyes closed. Doubts raised in his mind.

'Is she really sleeping?' He thought and decided to test her by blowing air on her ear. This time the reaction was more terrific. She started to scream like Tarzan with her eyes still closed and moved away from his embrace and throws her hand in the air violently trying to destroy whatever it was trying to make her awake. Her nails scratched his face and chest making him hiss in pain. 'IT FREAKING HURTS!' He screamed in mind while trying to control her hands.

"RAGINI" He screamed in her ear while grabbing her hands in his.

Ragini opened her eyes but suddenly tears rushed down from her eyes. Laksh looked at her tears in shock and concern. He thought he was holding her hand too tightly, so left them immediately and cupped her face.

"My princess" Laksh cooed while Ragini continued whimpering.

"Aww, baby...! What happened?" He continued coaxing her.

"I want to sleep," Ragini muttered while rubbing her eyes.

Laksh let out a sigh in relief and asked "That's it?"

He saw her nodding her head. He immediately pulled her into his embrace and rubbed her shoulders soothingly.

"Sleep" He muttered softly and rubbed away her tears. He felt her smile which made him smile.

He sighed and once again slept along with her not before thinking 'You're such a baby, wifey'

After an hour, Ragini finally woke up from her sleep. She squirmed only to find that the arms around her are tightening. For a second, she was scared but then the cologne entering her nostrils calmed her and made her remember what happened last night. She blushed and smiled at the same time. She bites her lower lip and looked up, still in his embrace, at the man of her dreams to find him sleeping with his mouth slightly open. He was sleeping peacefully which made her almost awed at his cuteness.

"Take a picture, it last longer, my tribal princess." She heard him mutter while his mouth twitched into a smirk.

"I-I am not staring." Ragini stuttered while looking down and blushing.

"Of course, you are not, tribal princess!" Laksh said while gazing at her with a smirk.

Ragini pouted but then looked up at him with narrowed eyes.

"Why are you calling me as tribal princess?"

Laksh's smirk widened at the sight of her nose turning red indicating that she is mad.

"Because you are wild like them" Laksh answered honestly while shrugging.

"When did I act wild with you?" Ragini asked offended and pulled away from his embrace.

Laksh looked at her shockingly and said "Just an hour or so, before. You were scratching my face and chest, wanna see?"

With that, he showed her the places on his face where he still feels pain and irritation. Ragini was shocked to see the scratches but she didn't have any memory doing them. But she knows that they were not there last night also Laksh didn't have huge nails to harm himself. So whatever Laksh saying was true, she realized. While he was about to slide his shirt to show her nail art on his chest but Ragini stopped him by placing her hand on his softly. Laksh gazed at her to find her looking at him guiltily and sadly.

"I am sorry." She muttered while tracing the scratches on his face. He hissed in pain making her remove her hands immediately.

"Sorry... sorry..." She apologized repeatedly while Laksh gazed at her eyes.

He can see her care for him, pain for him. He smiled internally and took her hands in his.

"Don't be sorry. I was the reason for this. I was disturbing you while you were sleeping peacefully, so you got irritated and did something that you weren't even aware of." Laksh explained and kissed her forehead.

"But still..."

Ragini tried to say something but Laksh shushed her by kissing her nose. She pulled away a bit to find him gazing at her lips with dark eyes. She gulped seeing his eyes not due to fear, but due to nervousness and shyness also with excitement. When he was about to lean down, she moved her head and kissed his cheek where she scratched. Laksh shivered feeling her lips giving him pain and pleasure. He breathed out and looked at her eyes.

"It will be alright soon," Ragini whispered and looked down while blushing.

Laksh smiled mischievously and asked, "Then what about here?"

With that, he was about to move his shirt but Ragini pushed him and about to run away from him. But Laksh grabbed her wrist and pulled her down, making her fall on his lap. Ragini's cheeks turned red. She tried to move away from his lap but Laksh put his arms around her and held her tightly. Ragini's breath quickened at their closeness. She looked down at her lap and avoided looking at eyes. Laksh gazed at her and smiled widely. He took his hand and brushed her hair away from her face and tucked them behind her ears making her blush more.

"Good morning, my princess!" Laksh said making Ragini look at him as though he was stupid. But then, she rolled her eyes and said softly "Good morning, my prince!"

Laksh grinned at her making her giggle. He kissed her nose and leaned down towards her neck and inhaled her fragrance. They calmed down his nerves at the same time exciting his body. His nose traced her skin which made Ragini feel ticklish. She pushed him by his chest and was about to stand up from his lap but he held her tightly to himself.

Ragini pouted and said, "Let me go, Laksh."

Laksh just held her closely, cuddling to her and said "Never"

Ragini narrowed her eyes at him and said "I am not your wife to sit on your lap, leave me!"

Laksh looked up at her mischievously making Ragini narrow her eyes more.

"So, after our marriage I can naughty with you?" Laksh asked while Ragini smirked.

"After marriage, I won't be sitting here. I will sit on the top of your head and pluck your oh-so-soft hairs out of your skull."

Ragini said and smile evilly while Laksh grinned at her and said "I don't care where you sit Ragini, because you will be always sitting in my heart like a queen."

Ragini blushed but then smacked his hand whining "Why are you saying those cheesy lines?"

Laksh grinned at her and said, "Because it makes you blush and I love making you blush."

Ragini blushed more and hide her face in his chest while Laksh chuckled and happily tightens his arms around her. Feeling so comfortable and safe in his arms, Ragini didn't have the heart to ask him leave but he has to as it's already morning and anyone could find them like this.

"Laksh" She called his name still having her face against his chest.

"Hmm" Laksh hummed making his chest vibrate.

Ragini felt that vibration and loved it. She cuddled into him more and muttered

"You need to go, now."

Laksh pouted and shook his head while saying "NO, I am not going anywhere."

Though loved having her face against his chest, feeling his vibration and heartbeat, she broke the embrace forcefully and pecked his lips making him freeze. She used that moment and rushed away from him. Laksh looked up at her in shock but then regained his mind and said

"Ragini, come here!" Laksh said more like ordered while opening his arms.

"No," Ragini said stubbornly and crossed her arms in front of her chest and continued saying "You need to go Laksh; someone might come and see us. Then my papa will skin you alive."

Laksh grinned at her and said, "If so, then I will be the happiest person in this world because you will be beside me, taking care of me."

Ragini couldn't help but smile. She went near him and kneeled in front of him. She cupped his face and placed butterfly kisses all over his face making Laksh smile goofily.

"I love you, Laksh" Ragini whispered and kissed his forehead.

Laksh smiled and took her face in his hands and kissed her forehead saying "I love you more, Ragini."

With that, they merged their foreheads while closing their eyes feeling contended.

Laksh slowly broke their trance saying "Bye"

Ragini felt sad but still smiled saying "Bye"

"I will be coming tonight too!" Laksh said making Ragini smile widely.

"I will be waiting for you!" Ragini said and kissed his cheek.

Laksh clutched his chest like her kiss hit his heart making Ragini roll her eyes. She smacked his head and pushed him away. He grinned and waved her a bye and went down through pipeline. Ragini peeped down and prayed for his safe landing. Once he reached the ground, he went towards his car not before giving flying kisses to Ragini making her giggle.

Ragini then sneaked to her room and sighed in content. Last few hours were like a fantasy dream for her. She prayed that this happiness should everlast in her life. She then started to do her morning routine and went to the kitchen to help her mom. But she was shocked to find Swara awake and speaking to Sanskar. She knocked on her room door making Swara notice her presence. Swara smiled at her and signed 'one minute' and bid bye to Sanskar.

She then went to Ragini and hugged her tightly while muttering "Good morning, sis!"

Ragini, still in her surprised state, hugged Swara and wished "Good morning, my little bear! How come you are awake this early in the morning?"

Swara giggled and broke the hug while saying "I want to be a perfect wife to Sanskar. He was a perfect man. He was disciplined, maintains punctuality, stays loyal and being honest unlike me who was complete opposite of him. So I am practising to be like him."

Ragini narrowed her eyes at her and grabbed her shoulders "Swara, no one is perfect. He can be a definition for a perfect man but he has flaws too. And one more thing, he loves you which means, he loves you for what you are. He loves you with your flaws. So, do not try to change yourself for someone, including for him and our family. If you feel like you should do, then you can do. But don't do it for pleasing someone. Got that, my little bear?"

Swara looked at Ragini with open mouth. She then sighed in relief and hugged her tightly. "Oh my sis, you are great! You gave some senses to my brain. I am so grateful to you!"

Ragini rolled her eyes at her exaggeration but then hugged her back. She then broke the hug and pulled her and made her sit on her bed while sitting beside her. She smiled excitedly and said, "Now, tell me about your love story!"

She saw her sister blush which was a rare sight. She then started to tell her love story excitedly while Ragini listened to her with full attention.

Few moments later,

"What...? Are you for real, Swara? How do you decide to marry him when you didn't know anything about him?" Ragini asked shockingly while Swara smiled like it was a common question asked by everyone to her.

"Sis, it is true that I didn't know anything about that man. But I felt something in inside me, like a voice, was murmuring that 'he is the one'. I know it's crazy in reality but what's thrill in life when every decision was taken according to reality. I know this decision can affect me and my family if I am wrong. But you know sis, you will have that feeling, when you decide something which may sound crazy and stupid to everyone but you are the one who feels that it is 'The right' one. I felt that. So I decided to go with that feeling and the result is me being happy with the man I love to the moon and back."

"Even if I am wrong, my decision is wrong, then I won't regret. I will think of 'The next right thing' to do and move accordingly."

Swara completed her speech making Ragini's jaw drop to the ground. Ragini's reaction made Swara giggle.

"Even younger ones can advise the elders. Sometimes it will be the right one." Swara said proudly but Ragini was in a trance to hear Swara's words.

Their mother called Swara which made her to let Ragini alone who was thinking, 'Even I know that feeling, Swara.'
