XXXVI. Being together ✨
Recap ~
Fell in love.
It was afternoon and Shivaay still didn't come out of his room, this definitely worried Anika. She took some food in a plate and knocked his door but did not get any response back. Slowly opening the door, she found Shivaay sitting in a corner of the room, lost in thoughts.
"Shivaay, I know you are angry with me but don't show that anger on food. Please have some." She said holding the plate in front of him when he took it silently and placed it on the table. The next minute, he held her hand and made her sit next to him "I'm so so sorry Anika. I shouldn't have reacted like that."
"Shivaay it's natural. I know you are scared for Khushi. I know you have the doubt that your father might hurt her!" She told and he hugged her as she just read out his heart.
"I'm scared but I know you wouldn't want to hurt Khushi in anyway. There must be a reason behind this!" He said still in her arms and she smiled in return, "Well Khushi wanted Tej uncle's consent for her marriage. She wanted her brother and father to be together in this."
"I'm sorry for my behavior, Anika. I promise I will hear you out and will never stop you ever. I promise..." He wasn't allowed to continue as she stuffed in a parotta in his mouth.
"Now stay quiet and eat billuji." She told and he nodded like an obedient kid.
"Did you eat?" He asked out of concern and she chuckled, "Yes, I did. Don't expect me to not eat because you were angry with me."
"Thank you for understanding my anger." He said and she smiled, "I know you." making him smile in return.
He was still upset over something and Anika could sense it, she placed her palm on his waiting for him to talk. He let out what was going in his mind, "I don't know how Mr. Oberoi easily accepted for this proposal! He was telling me yo.." he stopped realizing what he was about to tell.
"My bhai is handsome, smart, charming, and what not. He is perfect in all the ways possible, why won't he accept?" She asked raising her eyebrows and he clenched his fist remembering his past, "I don't know, Anika. I just know that all he cares is money, nothing else. He separated me from my best friend when I was six years old, he cheated on me and played with my feelings!"
Anika was surprised to hear him out, what if Tej did something to separate her brother and Khushi. Shivaay and Anika were definitely worried but with each other's support, they were sure they would handle everything. That was the confidence they had in them being together.
That evening, Shivaay and Anika were discussing about the restaurant launch when he got a call from Ragini.
"What!? I will come right away." He told before completing the call. Anika was surprised, why did she call Shivaay? After all that happened, she seemed upset with him. Informing Anika about Ragini's accident, they left to the hospital nearby.
"Ragini?" Shivaay called out to her as he saw her lying on the hospital bed.
"Shivaay, I'm sorry." Ragini told trying to get up when he helped her sit straight.
"For?" He asked softly and she cried, "For not understanding you. For not valuing your feelings for me. You considered me as your friend but I crossed my limits."
"That's fine. I'm happy you finally understood me." He said and she smiled at him.
"Hey Anika, didn't notice you." Ragini greeted and Anika greeted back in response.
"By the way congratulations, heard you both are in a relationship." She told and the couple passed a warm smile at her.
"You came to London to just apologize and congratulate us?" Anika asked feeling suspicious on Ragini. Hearing her, Ragini coughed heavily while Shivaay helped her to drink some water.
"I just wanted to meet Shivaay and apologize for my behavior all these days. That's why I flew to London and on my way, I met with an accident." She said and Anika simply nodded in return.
Ragini was discharged considering the accident to be minor and she was brought to Shivaay's place. Shivaay didn't have any other choice as he felt he somehow was the reason behind Ragini's condition. Of course, he asked Anika for her opinion before taking the decision.
"Shivaay, how did Ragini suddenly realize her mistake?" Anika asked as Shivaay was busy cooking soup for Ragini.
"I really don't know Anika." He said lost in thoughts and she frowned in response for not getting any input from her boyfriend.
"You know to make soup for your ex-girlfan alone." She told making him chuckle.
"I can smell something burning. Can you sense it?" He asked stirring the soup when she told what she felt, "I'm not jealous, I'm just worried Shivaay."
"Don't you worry. Everything is fine!" He told kissing her right cheek making her smile widely.
Everything seemed fine but was it really fine? Tej had come back, Ragini had come back. These two were definitely a deadly combination, what was going to happen and how will our ShivIka deal with it!?
