Beat Of My Heart
RAGHAV'S POV
A small figure crawled into me more when my eyes opened and I looked at the love of my life getting disturbed in sleep by the alarm .
I turned off the alarm and hiding her face more into my chest wrapped my arms around her.
But a small smile was already on my lips.
It's been three months . And lot has happened in it.
Especially Aarav and Radhika's marriage.
As both wanted the marriage in Delhi itself and I saw Janki being the most happiest yet emotional person at the same time.
She was happiest because her best friend was coming to Udaipur but sad because...
Well as she quoted it, "It's my best friend getting married. I'm giving off my heart to someone else"
Though the part which I most focused was on "My Heart". And once again Radhika Shah made me feel jealous of herself.
As I looked at the figure sleeping near mine again, I smiled.
Good morning Raani sa" I mumbled and she hummed.
"Let me sleep" She groggily said as I was grazing my plam on her face.
"You can't. We've works" I said
"No. It's Sunday" She whined as she opened her eyes.
"Sadly Sunday doesn't come after Wednesday Sweetheart. Come on up. " I said
"Ten minutes" She mumbled when I smirked
"Shit. Cockroach " I screeched and in a second she jumped on bed.
"Where! Where" She screamed and in the process entangled with the sheets and rolling into the comforters fell off the bed.
"Ouch Mumma" She whined and I laughed.
She looked at me for a second and then glared me.
"Since you're fully awake. Let's start the day" I mocked extending my hand to her.
"Did I ever tell you that I hate you" She snapped standing on her own just to entangle again and fell again.
And I laughed as her hairs covered her face.
"Yes. You say that every day My Love. And I love you too" I said pecking her nose and she narrowed her eyes at me as I picked her up.
"I Literally Hate You Raghav Singh Rathore" She screamed and I hid my smile.
"Arey Listen" I called
"We've works" She tried mimicking me failing badly and it which made me chuckle again.
"Don't you dare laugh" She warned going inside the walk in.
"Happy first Wedding Anniversary Janki" I spoke and she looked at me and then smiled at me.
"I thought you forgot" She said
"Not a chance. " I replied
"Happy first to you too Rana sa. It's been one hell of an year" She said and I passed her a small smile.
"But, since you've been in my bad books the he minute you rolled me down sheets, I still hate you" She said and turned around again going inside.
After she went away, I too went to gym and after jogging as I came back I saw All the women in kitchen hence I followed.
"And then you just have to make it like this" Mom spoke and I went near by to witness mom making Ghevar.
"That's amazing" I said and they all looked at me.
Everyone there wished me anniversary and then I looked at Janki.
The love of my life looked at me with a frown and I knew I'm going to be punished by this for whole day today.
Perks of waking up your sleep loving wife in middle of her sleep.
Before I could speak I felt a tug on my right leg and I looked at the intruder.
Picking Mickey up in the arms, I looked at Janki.
"I'm not finding a file Sunshine. I was working on it last night. Have you seen it" I asked when she looked at me again but didn't say anything.
"Nivi bhabhi, do you know, Kings now a days lie too" She said of course pointing on me and I sighed where as mom chuckled.
"What did you do Raghav" She asked
"I di.. " Before I could say anything in my defence my wife spoke.
"He.. He found it necessary to not let me sleep for ten more minutes. And due to him I fell off the bed" She whined and I looked at Nivedita.
"Now that needs a summon" She grinned
"On whose side you are " I asked
"Oh great. So now there are sides" Janki said and then looked at mom.
"Tell him to go away from here. I don't wanna talk to him" She whined again and mom looked at me while I sighed.
"Now that's something you aren't allowed to do" I said
"Raghav.. " Mom warned and I sighed going out.
Well, take a tip. Don't wake your wife up when she demands sleep of some more minutes.
As I went back to the King's Abode, I took a bath and got ready and going downstairs, I saw everyone at the dining table.
"Good morning dad" Megha wished and I smiled kissing her forehead.
"Morning Princess. How's new class treating you" I asked
"Good. I've joined kho-kho team too" She said and I smiled looking at my daughter.
Last year this time was the starting of her journey to be back on her legs.
This one thing, which no one could do, Janki made it possible and even if I give the world to her, it'll be less. I'm indebted to her for our whole life.
As usual I was about to fill her plate when she stopped me but I looked at her and she knew I was adamant.
"Chahe jitna gussa kar lijiye, you can't snatch my rights away from me (Be as much angry you want to be but you can't snatch away my rights from me) " I stated and she huffed.
As I filled her plate, we all started breakfast and then bidding bye, we came to parking area.
"What's this Sunshine. You know I can't bear this" I complained
"Bear that. You laughed after ruining my sleep" She gritted and a smile was about to make it's way on my lips but I suppressed it.
Opening the door of the car for her, I looked at her kissing her forehead.
"I Love You" I mumbled and for a second I felt her releasing her breath.
"I hate you" She frowned but hugged me and I smiled looking at her.
And after that she left for hospital where as I left for Office after dropping Megha.
Janki was already best at her profession but now, she was getting so many complicated cases from all over the world. She made a department of psychology too in the hospital. And we realized that how much important it was in this generation.
Specially in the age group of fifteen to mid twenties.
People suffering from stress of works, studies, good grades, competition, breakups, lonlieness and what not.
They all wanted someone to listen and Janki, as I know is the best listener.
And best Healer.
No doubt I was so proud of My Wife.
"Good morning Rana sa" Mr. Diwaan wished
"Morning Mr. Diwaan. Schedule" I demanded and he nodded while telling the same.
"The Ranawat's have given up on the deal and Mr. Shekhawat is ready to take up that. " He informed and I looked at him.
After the deaths of those people, the deal which was to be signed between our company and Ranawat was dismissed. Father of Armaan Ranawat grieved his son but he knew that some or other day he would meet this death because of sins he did. And hence he dismissed the deals.
And the deal was taken up by Surekha Shekhawat's ex husband and son who was residing Abroad.
Though we knew he was a man of words yet a cross verification was necessary.
Two months ago, Janki demanded something and I again couldn't deny of it. Though I knew it was the right thing too, to do.
Hence as she said, I handed over Surekha Shekhawat and Raina Shekhawat in the hands of laws. Multiple charges were put on them and it was made sure that they suffer a life imprisonment.
"We'll get to it in a day hukum" Mr. Diwaan said and I nodded.
"Mr. Diwaan, is everything ready for tonight" I asked and a small smile came on his lips.
"Ji Hukum. Do you want any more addition in it" He questioned and I denied dismissing him.
After that I focused on the work reviewing some presentations, files and getting into the meetings back to back.
I looked at the watch to see it was already 6 pm.
And I called Nivi.
"Where are they" I asked
"They're on the way. Yash called minutes before" She informed
"Good. You know next right" I asked
"Aye Aye Captain" She giggled and a small smile made it's way on my lips.
Cutting the call, I went inside the small walk in of the cabin and picked out a black tuxedo with white shirt.
Changing and getting ready, I left for the palace.
As I went inside I looked to find mom.
"Where's she" I asked
"Just getting ready. " Mom smiled and I nodded as I sat talking to mom while Mickey jumping here and there around us.
"Is it a date Mr. Rathore" The voice came and I looked to find her.
Just as I imagined. The pink satin strap dress looked etheral on her.
"It is" I replied
"I'm still angry" She stated
"We'll discuss this question after a while again" I replied extending my hand which she took.
"You look so beautiful Janki" Mom said and she side hugged mom.
"Enjoy" Mom winked and I chuckled while Janki smiled a bit blushing.
As we came out, Janki looked at me raising a brow.
I opened the door of back seat for Janki when she looked at me.
"Robin is driving us" I answered her unasked question and she nodded.
As she sat inside I closed the door of her side and took a seat near her.
As we drove to the outskirts, Janki looked at me.
"Why were in Rajsamand? " She asked
Rajsamand was a small district near Udaipur. Mostly famous for Charbhuja Temple.
"Sush. You question a lot" I said
"Obviously I will. I was angry on you and y.. " She was saying when I pulled her a little closer and pecked her lips.
She looked at me wide eyed and then hit my chest.
"You can't just do this" She whined
"What did I do" I asked innocently
"Fu.. God I can't even say that. You'll just reply with something double meaning again" She huffed and I chuckled at it.
"We're on a date Sunshine. So why not to leave the worry of whole world aside and enjoy with me" I asked and she looked at me.
"Though I'll enjoy food because that's what I live for. But yes, mind you, I'm angry and I'll be angry till I want" She said like a kid and I chuckled nodding.
Soon we reached one of our palace hotels and she looked at me.
"I've never come here in last year. What's this? " She asked
"Another heritage hotel" I said as I opened the door of her side coming out and taking my hand she stepped out.
"Aren't you very, very rich" She muttered
"I guess yes" I winked and she made a cute face as we started walking.
The staff was waiting for us at the door and as they saw us they welcomed us.
"Rana sa, Raani sa Khammaghani" The manager wished and we replied the gestures.
"How's everything working here Mr. Nahar" I asked
"Fantastic hukum. You've visited after a very long period" He said
"On a date with my wife" I replied and Janki looked at me for a second a bit shocked but smiled.
"This way sir. The table is booked" He said and we nodded.
As we went to the palace, I saw Janki looking at exteriors and interiors.
"They're somewhat like City Palace Complex" She acknowledged
"A little, yes. " I replied and as we moved I saw people looking at us while some men looking at Her.
And I hated it of course. But just a hard quick glare was enough for people to get back to their works.
"You can stop digging graves with eyes." The woman whispered in my ear.
"Why can't people just keep their eyes to themselves. " I muttered
"Not their fault. Ab ham hai hi itne sundar ( I'm so beautiful) " She bluffed and I stopped raising a brow at her while she smirked.
"Wrong move Sunshine" I said and pecked her lips when she looked at me a bit startled.
"Fortunately The beauty is mine" I smirked and she looked at me chuckling and pulled me with her.
"You're possessive" She spoke
"I never denied that." I smirked again
"Well, just for your knowledge, you're getting tour of our hotel. Our table is booked on other side" I told and she nodded.
"Well, I honestly liked this dining area" She said looking at the dining of the hotel.
"You'll love ours" I replied and she nodded.
In the middle of the tour many people wished and I looked at Janki replying to everyone politely.
As we were on the next side of the palace, I looked at Janki who looked at me a bit surprised.
"Wow. Is that for us" She asked
"It is" I replied and she smiled.
Reaching there, I pulled out a chair for her and as she made herself comfortable, I went to opposite side sitting on another one.
"Candle light dinner. Not bad Rana sa" She said
"Are we still angry" I asked
"Oh sure we're. " She narrowed her eyes and I looked at her.
"I promise that when this night ends, I would've made up for it" I promised
"We'll see. Right now I want food" She said and I smiled a bit tilting my head a bit gesturing the manager while he nodded and handed the menu to Janki.
"We don't have a prepared meal" She asked a bit surprised.
"You always like to pick your own menu. " I simply shrugged and she smiled.
As she put in her order of course adding every dessert they had on the menu she looked at me.
"This will do" I replied and she smiled while manager nodded going.
"So, you're impressing me by food" She asked
"Am I? " I raised a brow
"You know that desserts are my weakness" She mumbled
"Never tell anyone your weakness Raani sa. They may use it anywhere" I said and she looked at me for a second then streched back to her chair.
"You're not anyone Raana sa. And if I know your weakness, I can use it too. So I've my opponent on check" She smirked and I looked at her as a chuckle left my mouth.
Now there I see My Wife.
"Fair enough. Tactics getting better. You can enter business too" I said
"Learning from the best you see" She replied
"I'm glad you find me best. I won't have settled for less" I replied and she looked at me when the waiters came with our dinner.
"Okay, this looks.. Delicious" She said and I looked at her where as her sole focus was on food now.
As the dinner was plated, She picked her fork and started with the starter.
And after that, it was Janki and her food.
And I won't lie if I say, I still fall in love with the way she eats.
As she takes the first bite, her eyes close and she savors the flavors with in.
We completed our dinner and she looked at me.
"The whole dinner was scrumptious but the desserts topped the charts. Finger licking" She praised and the manager smiled widely.
Why is he smiling widely.
Because she complimented him.
"You may go" I announced and he looked at me for a second and nodded leaving us alone.
"What was that" She said when I didn't say anything and pulled her chair near mine.
She gasped and her hands rested on my shoulder.
"Raghav.. I would've fallen " She exclaimed
"You already fell for me sweetheart" I winked
"You're changing topic" She said and I sighed
"Okay fine. He smiled too wide at you" I stated
"I complimented the food. That's why" She replied
"I know that but, come on. I don't like people smiling so wide at you" I muttered and she giggled.
"You're a jealous bitch you know" She announced
"Okay but you didn't need to change the gender and stop spending your time with that idiot Aarav. You're using his words" I pointed out.
He exactly uses this for me.
I stood up from chair and pulled out my hand.
"Mind a dance" I asked and she raised a brow
"Without song? " She questioned and I denied as I gestured a woman coming with violin.
"Okay. Not bad Mr. Rathore. You have thought a lot to get my anger to be subsided" She said and I looked at her while she gave in standing up.
"Wait a second" She said and I looked at her raising a brow when she pointed her heels.
"Sit on the chair" I told when she denied.
"Not always Raana sa" She said and before I could say she again spoke.
"Just hold me" She added keeping her hand on my shoulder and from another hand opened the strap of her heels.
I gestured my head, and the woman started playing violin.
Janki looked at me for a second and then chuckled.
And she sang. Making the night even more memorable unknowingly to her self.
Ankhon mein teri
Ajab si, ajab si, adaayein hain
Ho...
ankhon mein teri...
ajab si, ajab si, adaayein hain
Dil ko bana dein jo patang
Saansein ye teri vo hawaayein hai !!
Aayi aisi raat hai jo
Bohat khush-naseeb hai
Chaahe jisse door se duniya
Vo mere kareeb hai
Kitna kuch kehna hai
Fir bhi hai dil mein sawaal kaheen
Sapnon mein jo roz kaha hai
wo phir se kahun Ya nahee
Aankhon mein teri
Ajab si, ajab si, adaayein hain
Ho...
ankhon mein teri
ajab si, ajab si, adaayein hain
Dil ko bana dein jo patang
Saansein ye teri vo hawaayein hain!!
Her face was resting on my shoulder where as I had my one hand wrapped around her waist and another holding her other hand.
"You look gorgeous sunshine" I whispered in her ear and she smiled.
"You either don't look bad" She said and a small smile appeared on my lips.
As we finished dancing, I looked at her.
"Come on. Let me show you something" I said grabbing her hand.
"Whoa wait. You've already melted my whole anger. What more is left" She asked
"You weren't even angry with me on the first place Sunshine. The moment you hugged me in the morning,I knew that" I said and she looked at me and even in dim yellow lights I could see her cheeks matching the color of her dress.
"My heels" She said and was bending to pick them up but this time I was quick enough to kneel down and make her wear them.
"Thank you" I thanked the violin artist and she greeting us again left.
"Where are we going" She asked
"Terrace of The palace. You'll love the view from there" I told and she smiled as we walked.
Taking the lift we reached the terrace when Janki looked at me.
"Why is it so dark here" She asked
"Just come. I'll lead the way" I said and she nodded and I took her ahead and then after a few steps I halted.
"What's beneath my leg" She asked but I was silent.
"Wha.. " She was saying but before that we listened a bark.
And then there were two spot lights.
One on us and one on the way we walked.
There you go my Love.
This is Your Fairy Tale According To You.
JANKI'S POV
As I heard the bark it didn't take me a second to know it was Mickey.
But what would Mickey do here.
Before my mind could process what was happening there were two spot lights.
One on us and one on ...
I gasped as I saw the sight infront of me.
And this time when I looked beneath me, I realized I was right. They were red rose petals.
I looked ahead again to see Mickey walking with... Megha.
As they came near by I looked more shocked at them.
Mickey was wearing a Bandana with a red rose in his mouth and Megha wore a small banner tucked in ribbons around her neck with a red rose in her hand.
Asking one Question.
Will You Marry My Dad ?
I looked shocked at them and titled my head to look around for the person behind all this.
And as I saw him on his knee my feet stumbled but he as usual held me.
I looked around.
The whole terrace was filled with candles and red roses.
Around us were many bunches of red roses encircled with candles again.
In front of us on floor a heart was made of red roses and candles and behind us, a big heart of red roses was present with neon letters stating...
Will You Marry Me.
It was as if I again came back in senses I looked at the man sitting on his knees with a small smile on his lips.
"Though red roses are a little hyped in my view, but since The Love Of My Life loves Red roses, How couldn't I paint the whole world with red roses" He said and I looked at him still shocked.
"Ra..Ma...We're already married Raghav. It's our first anniversary" I whispered
"We're sunshine. And yes it is. You're my Wife and I'm Your husband. No doubt it that. But, I remember, the marriage didn't have to take place like how it did. You wanted it out of love. You remember you told me that, I would've wooed you, made you fall for me then married you? " He asked and I nodded.
"Im keeping the words Sunshine. I wooed you, made you fall for me, Now I would love to marry you. Again. This time, I would love to see you in Red Poshak where you'll walk down the aisle with one biggest ornament that was missing when we married" He spoke and I looked at him with questioning eyes.
"Aapki muskurahat. Apki sundarta par chaar chand vhi to lagati hai. (Your smile adds a feather to one's cap) " He professed
"Mom, Will You Marry My Dad" Megha asked as she came and settled down on Raghav's knee and Mickey too jumped on him while we chuckled as he barked.
"He asks the same question Sunshine" Raghav whispered and I looked at him.
"We too ask the same question Sunshine. Marry our Raghav" A chorus voice came and I looked to find the whole family there each one of them standing with a red rose in their hands.
I was too utterly shocked as I looked at all of them and a tear of happiness rolled down my cheek.
How could I possibly deny to it. The girl who since was small had seen dreams to get married with all the rituals and all the fun, was getting a chance to live that.
"Sunshine, Shaadi karengi aap hamse? (Will you marry me) " Raghav spoke and pulled out his right hand which was on his back and I saw...
I looked damn shocked at it.
"It was Broken" I whispered
The pot which I and Raghav made on my birthday in Jawai, and I broke it in his study in anger.
It was the same.
"Its Kintsugi art of Broken Pottery Sunshine. Where Broken things are fixed with gold. It's said that The broken parts are the ones from there light enters you. For me, I was the broken vase and you were the melted gold. That filled my broken parts making my life more beautiful. Making my scars beautiful. Just like this Vase. I don't say it in air when I say, You're My Sunshine. Entering into my life and making it beautiful." He smiled and I was too over whelmed.
Raghav wasn't proposing me with a ring or a red rose.
He was proposing me with a shrub of red rose.
"Even if the roses goes in between the pages of books, I Promise, You'll always keep blooming, like this one. I'll make sure " He whispered looking at the small buds of roses and some bloomed red roses in the pot.
"So say, will you marry me" He asked again and a year left my eye.
"Yes. A thousand and infinite tikes, yes" I said nodding my head smiling wide and they all hooted.
"Get up First now you three. Otherwise I'll sit on my knees too" I told when Raghav shook his head with a small smile.
"What" I asked
"You've no idea right" He said and I looked at him
"What" I asked again.
"You can drive a saint to madness and a King to his knees, just by looking at him like you're looking at me right now. " He said and I looked at him bending a bit kissing his forehead and took the pot in my hand.
I looked at Megha and kissed her cheek taking the rose from her and ruffling Mickey's hairs I took the rose from him too.
"I'll be luckiest to get married to your Dad. Megha you were always right since start. Your Dad Is The Best" I said looking at both of them when one gave me a toothy grin while other barked showing his happiness.
I went to the family members and looked at them.
"Since no one can handle Rana sa, I'll Marry Your Raghav. " I winked and they all laughed as they gave me the roses.
As everyone hugged me, I looked at the person standing at the same place looking at me with a smile on his face and hands in the pockets of his trousers.
And as his eyes met mine, all I wanted was to kiss him.
But since I couldn't do that, I looked at him with a small smile and he raised a brow.
I chuckled denying and ran towards him while he opened his arms and as I reached he picked me up by waist and twirled me around.
Our laughter was echoing in air of Rajsamand.
And I looked at my family who was heart and my Man who indeed was the beat of that heart.
Heart beat after all !!
