Heya guys, 😊

Back with an update again. 😅

__________________________________________________

It's been half an hour, they came back from the academy.

Ragini can sense the change in his behavior. He was upset about something and she didn't know the reason.

They had their dinner, which she ordered from the nearby restaurant, silently.

She wasn't expecting this silence, after what all they share their feelings.

Ragini (trying to start the convo) - So, how was your day at the academy? Did that meeting get successful?

Laksh who almost forgot about that, looked at her with a bright smile.

Laksh - I called you to tell you that only. That meeting was great and we got the project.

Ragini (smiling happily) - Wow...!!! Really...!!! Then why are you looking like you are upset about something?

His mood changed suddenly. It was not such a big thing to stuck because he knew that her career is her everything, but still it was pinning in his heart.

Laksh (in a grave voice) - Can I ask you something, Ragini?

Ragini nodded in affirmation and he huffed a deep blow out of his mouth.

Laksh - What if I wasn't a choreographer and I forbade you to pursue your career in dance after our marriage, What would you have done?

Ragini looked at him confused as to why he was asking such stupid questions.

Ragini (with an awkward smile) - Why are you asking this? When there is nothing like that!

Laksh (in a light tone) - Just asking you hypothetically. I mean, when you agreed to marry me, you didn't know about me being into dance and whether, I would be agreed for it or not.

Ragini(chuckling) - Haha...That time I was just thinking about coming to Mumbai. And When Mom told me that you stay in Mumbai, I agreed immediately.

Laksh (interrupting her) - Just to come to Mumbai, you married a complete stranger.

He knew that truth, but they never discussed it openly. And he wanted to know, what changed after their trip.

Ragini (without thinking) - O that was my only opportunity to come here. Otherwise, Mom never let me get out of that city.

Laksh (sipping water slowly) - So, you took the opportunity.

Ragini (nonchalantly) - Of Course. Who wouldn't?

Ragini was giving all answers freely because for her she already cleared out her stake on their marriage and she already told him that her priorities changed after she spent time with him.

But for him, it wasn't enough. He needed assurance to put his heart on stake.

His 'what ifs' were making him restless.

He didn't know that he was going to be this unsure for loving someone or getting someone's love back.

He himself didn't know when he fell for her.

But 'What IF' She didn't feel the same.

She is a bold, ambitious, modern girl. What if, what she was feeling with him just a passing phase for her.

He didn't want to judge her on her thoughts or behavior but his insecurities making him do that.

Ragini who was waiting for his response, saw him lost in his thoughts and jerked his hand.

Ragini - Hey, You okay?

Laksh (drawing deep breath) - Yaa...just tired. Good Night.

And before she could react, he stood up and left for his room and shut the door immediately.

Ragini, who didn't have a single clue, what happened looked at his retreating form little shocked.

Ragini (to herself) - Did I said something wrong?

She didn't know why but she felt utterly disappointed with his behavior.

" You gonna regret doing this here, Tonight" she remembered his words.

TONIGHT....!!!!

This was going to be their night.

Then what went wrong..!!!

She felt low and confused, for not getting what she wanted, tonight.

She too went inside her room. She changed into her nightdress and lay down on her bed.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's been an hour, and she wasn't getting any sleep, and the same goes for Laksh.

He too was turning side, not able to find peace in his heart.

His phone beeped and he saw Roop's message to remind him about his tomorrow's schedule.

He put his head below the pillow not wanting to go anywhere, for some time. He needed time for himself.

His phone beeped again and he let out a frustrated groan.

He checked his phone and this time it was Ragini.

His body alerted as he sat on his bed abruptly.

He exhaled a shallow breath and opened the message.

Ragini - Hey..!! You asleep?

Without his thinking his fingers worked and a " No" sent it to her immediately.

Laksh (shutting his eyes in frustration) - Shit Laksh...!!! Why did you do that..!! You need to control your emotions when it comes to her.

His phone beeped again, making him jump on his place.

Ragini - Wanna have a chat session?

He didn't respond this time. He knew he was being an a***ole this time, but he is trying to protect what is his.

His phone beeped again.

Ragini - No chat session! (pout)..! Okay..! You wanna share something?

He shook his head and put his phone on the side table. His ear got the beeping sound once again and his hands itched to see what she have to say. He picked the phone and opened her message.

Ragini - NO? (pout) Should, I, say something?

Again beep

Ragini - Don't tell me in the morning, That I didn't let you sleep the whole night..!!

The underlying meaning in the message kept him on the verge.

Beep

Ragini - So, Aren't you tired? As you keep running in my thoughts.

He bit his lip to control his smile.

Beep

Ragini - You should get your cash ready, if you are planning to stay in my heart. It ain't rent-free.

He chuckled.

Beep

Ragini - According to the second law of thermodynamics, you are supposed to share your hotness with me.

That made him hiccup. This girl is something else, when it comes to flirt. And he is a novice for sure.

Beep

Ragini - I am on my bed, You are on your bed. I think, one of us is in the wrong place.

This got a smile on his lips. He was controlling himself not to go and grab her in his arms. Maybe he was reading too much between the lines.

Beep

He was smiling ear to ear when he opened the next text.

Ragini - I am sorry, I wasn't part of your past. Can I make it up by being in your future?

And before he held himself back, he was knocking at her door. Forgetting all his worries for the moment. His heart was beating profusely, doing summersault in its ribcage.

His breath hitched when he heard the click sound.

There standing, the girl, he was falling for. The girl, he got married. The girl, who can make her sad and excited at the same time.

On the other side, The boldness she was feeling on the phone, gone abruptly as his gaze studied her from top to bottom.

She tried to cover herself as she was wearing the nighty, she conveniently hid on her honeymoon.
