Sweethearts, thank you so much for your votes and comments. I really do appreciate your valuable comments everyday 😍

So yeah it's time to party now 💃🏻🕺

All the staffs were enjoying the party by dancing and singing with each other. They genuinely appreciated their new MD, Veeranshu for throwing a party to celebrate their success because their former MD was a boring and strict person as he had never appreciated the employees' hard work nor respect their feelings. Mithra was also enjoying the party along with the other staffs but Bani wasn't interested at all to relish the moment. She was just standing beside Mithra to accompany her and sometimes she even stole a glance at Veeranshu which had not gone unnoticed by him. He caught his beloved gharwali looking at him so he thought of annoying her more. He went closer to Bani and she was just staring at him curiously to know what was he up to?

Veer : Hello, gharwali. (He whispered huskily)
Bani just glared at him.
Veer : Arre gharwali, why are you standing here quietly?
Bani : Then what you want me to do?
Veer : Romance. (He chuckled and Bani scowled at him)
Bani : Veeranshu!
Veer : Yes, sweetheart?
Bani : Nothing. Go and party with others.
Veer : Why? I just want to party with you. (He winked at her)
Bani : Veeranshu, no one here knows about us so please don't give them a chance to find out what's going on between us. (She rolled her eyes)
Veer : Sweetheart, what's going on between us? (He smirked)
Bani got angry and was about to rebuke him but one of the colleague came there and ruined their conversation. The person's name was Arjun and he was living in the same place with Bani but different apartment. He was close to Bani and Mithra as they always spend their weekends together.

Arjun : Bani, what are you doing here?
Veeranshu got annoyed but he just faked a smile.
Bani : Hmmm nothing, Arjun. I'm just waiting for Mithra. (She pointed at Mithra who was busy partying with the other staffs)
Arjun : Come, let's join them. (He extend his hand for her)
Veer was curious to know if she would hold his hand or not.
Bani : No, Arjun. I'm just tired. You guys enjoy.
Veer cleared his throat to get Arjun's attention. Arjun then noticed Veer.
Arjun : Oh hello, Sir. I'm sorry I didn't notice you.
Veer's mind voice : Yeah how will you notice me when you are busy flirting with my wife 😒
Veer : It's okay, Arjun. Actually I need to talk to Bani personally so can you...? (Bani narrowed her eyes at him)
Arjun : Oh okay, Sir. I'm sorry for disturbing you both. Bani, let me know when you are going back later.
Bani : Okay, Arjun. (Arjun left)
Veer : Gharwali, who is this useless guy?
Bani : His name is Arjun and he is not useless. He has been working here since 2 years and lives next to my apartment.
Veer : Oh, btw where are you staying?
Bani was about to tell him then she realised that he was trying to get her information so she stopped.
Bani : None of your business.
Veer : Come on, Gharwali. Do you think I won't find it out if you don't tell me?
Bani : Then why are you asking me? Find it yourself. (She was about to move but Veer grabbed her arm to stop her)
Bani : Veeranshu, what are you doing? Leave me.
Veer : Not that easily, sweetheart. (He tightened his grip)
Bani : I said leave me! People are looking at us. (She tried to release her hand from the grip)
Veer : No one is looking at us right now. They are busy partying there.
Bani : Just leave me!

Veer directly dragged Bani to his cabin without giving the chance to others to notice them. He took her inside the cabin, locked the door with the keys and kept them in his pant pocket so that Bani wouldn't try to escape from there. Bani was surprised at his unexpected action.
Bani : I said leave me. Why did you bring me here? Unlock the door right now!
Veer : Sweetheart, we need to talk. I promise I will let you go if you cooperate with me. (Bani's eyes popped out of the socket and Veer smirked at her)
Veer : Actually I mean cooperate means I will ask you few questions and you will have to answer me honestly. I meant it, sweetheart. Nothing else as you think. (He chuckled)
Bani : I don't have to cooperate with you. I need to go out. Unlock the door right now!
Veer : I said not that easily. I really want to talk to you, Bani. (He dragged her to the couch in the cabin and made her sit)
Bani : Veeranshu, I said I need to leave. Please leave me. (She stood up from the couch and again he pulled her to sit but this time she landed on his lap and Veer wrapped his arms around her waist tightly so that she wouldn't try to move)
Veer : I told you right. You can't go away from me.
Bani : Arghh leave me. I need to go. (She said, struggling to move away but he tightened his hold)
Veer : Sweetheart, please. We need to talk.
Bani realized it's difficult to get out from his cabin at that moment so she decided to agree with him.
Bani : Okay, faster tell what you want to talk. (She said annoyed without making an eye contact with him)
Veer : Gharwali, say that romantically so I can get into the mood to talk. (He chuckled)
Bani : Stop it, Veer.
Veer : Veer? From Veeranshu to Veer that too in one day? Good improvement, gharwali. (Bani rolled her eyes) Okay let me come to the point. Why did you leave me alone there?
Bani : I guessed it correct. So this is what you wanted to talk about, isn't it? I don't want to talk about it anymore. It's over!
Veer : Gharwali, what's over? You must answer me right now. Only if you want to sit in this position until next morning then don't answer me. (He gave her a mischievous smile)
Bani : Veeranshu, why are you torturing me like this? Leave me please.
Veer : Ouchh gharwali, don't say please to me. It hurts here to see my wife begging me. (He pointed at his heart dramatically)
Bani : Oh really? It doesn't hurt you when I was begging you to listen to me that day? It doesn't hurt you when you pushed me on the floor? It doesn't hurt you when you judged my purity that day? (She burst out in anger)
Veer started to feel more guilty for his behaviour that day. He did really regret about it and felt disappointed with his own-self. He removed his arms from her waist and cupped her face. Bani was looking down with tears.
Veer : Bani, look at me. (He tried to wipe her tears but she stopped him)
Bani : Don't wipe it. I'm used to it since 3 months.
Veeranshu was then at the peak of guiltiness for hurting his wife.
Veer : I'm really sorry, Bani. I know sorry is too small compared to what you have gone through because of me but I'm genuinely apologizing for it. I'm extremely sorry for hurting you that day. I learnt the truth after you left me and I realised how stupid I was on that day. I just listened to Jai's conversation with you and misunderstood you as that scoundrel was blaming you for betraying him. I know it's my fault. I should have asked you about it before judging you but I didn't do it that day. I'm really sorry for hurting you, sweetheart.
Bani remained silent and Veer called her again.
Veer : Sweetheart?
Bani : Are you done with your speech? Can I leave now?
Veer : Sweetheart, please listen to me once. I'm genuinely saying sorry from the bottom of my heart.. (She cut in between)
Bani : Oh. Good. (She smiled at him mockingly)
Veer : Bani, please don't do this to me. I know I've done a huge mistake in my life that day and I've never skipped a day without regretting it. I want you back in my life. Please listen to me, sweetheart. (Tears formed his eyes)
Bani : It's over, Veeranshu. My chapter in your life has ended three months ago. I have moved on so it would be better if you move on too.
Veer : Don't talk to me like this, Bani. It really hurts. I'm sorry for hurting you, I'm sorry for not respecting your feelings, I'm sorry for judging your purity, I'm sorry for giving you only pain since 3 months, I'm sorry for not being there to wipe your tears, I'm sorry for letting you go away from me and I'm sorry for putting you in a situation to work here. I'm sorry for everything. (He cried)

Bani felt bad seeing him crying and tears started to fall from her eyes too as he reminded their bitter past again. She was speechless as her heart was asking her to console him and accept his apologies but her mind was asking her to remember how much she struggled in the past 3 months because of him. She finally decided to listen to her mind as she didn't want to get hurt again.
Bani : It's over, Veeranshu. Stop talking about the past. I'm not living in that past anymore. (He wiped his tears and looked at her)
Veer : What is over, gharwali?
Bani : Our relationship.
Veer : You said it's over but see where you are sitting right now. (He smirked even though tears were rolling down his eyes again)
Bani then realised she was sitting on his lap and he was not even holding her. She got embarrassed and tried to get up but Veer wrapped his hand around her waist and tightened his hold.
Veer : You had the chance just now but you still continued sitting on my lap. This shows how much you want me, sweetheart.
Bani : Bullshit! No such thing. You were talking so emotionally and I was listening to it seriously so I didn't focus on our position. (She tried to cover up but it didn't work with him)
Veer : You said you have moved on then why were you listening to me seriously when I was talking emotionally just now? (He chuckled again)
Bani : Because I'm not an heartless person as you are. (She snapped the reply)
Veer : I'm not heartless baby. See here I too have a heart. (He took her hand and placed it on his chest near the heart)
He thought Bani would refuse but to his surprise, she responded. He then understood that Bani was still loving him in the same way as before but it's just her anger that was stopping her from expressing her feelings. It gave him a hope and he got the mischievous idea to go with her weak point. Bani's hand was still on his chest as she was lost in her own thoughts. Veer snapped his fingers, made Bani to realise what she was doing. She immediately took off her hand from his chest and Veer was smiling at her. He then whispered "I love you, gharwali" which made Bani to get completely surprised to hear that from him as he didn't confess his love to her and called her as sweetheart or gharwali after he was saved from the Moon. He was continuously gazing at her to read her expression and as he expected, Bani reacted to his confession by having tears in her eyes. He understood how much she was yearning to listen to it from him, how much he meant to her at that moment and he decided to not let go off that moment as it was the golden chance for him to win her heart back. She was looking down so he slowly leaned in and kissed her left cheek while his hands were still wrapped around her waist. Bani jerked and quickly raised her head to look at him.

Bani : What are you doing? (She asked shockingly)
Veer : You failed to notice it? Okay, let me do it again. (He again kissed on her left cheek before she could react)
Bani : Veeranshu!
Veer : Not enough? Okay, I will do it again. (He tried to kiss her again but this time she placed her hand on his lips to stop him but he kissed her hand instead)
Bani : Stop it and leave me. (She pulled back her hand and tried to get up from his lap)
Bani felt a little pain when Veer tightened his hold around her waist.
Bani : Veeranshu, you are hurting me. Please take your hands off my waist. It hurts. (He could feel the pain in her voice so he immediately released her from his hold)
Veer : Sweetheart, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I just wanted to stop you from getting up.
Bani didn't react to his apology and she instantly got up from his lap as this time he didn't stop her.
Bani : Please unlock the door. Mithra would be searching for me by now. (She said while trying to avoid making an eye contact)
Veer : Wait a minute. (He took out his phone to check something) Sweetheart, your friend is not waiting for you. She is so lost in the party. Come and see this yourself. (He was showing her what was happening outside the cabin as he connected the cctv footage to his phone)
Bani : I don't care about it. Please let me go now. I'm just tired. (She sighed)
Veer got up from the couch and stood in front of her.
Veer : Gharwali, can I bring you back with me? I want to live with you happily after this.
Bani : Why do you want to live with me? You are not the so called typical orthodox guy to live with only one girl for your entire life right? You love partying with babes so why don't you go and find for them instead of begging me here? (She said recalling his dialogue)
Veer : Ouchh I could smell some jealousy here. Did you feel it?
Bani passed a death glare at him.
Veer : Haha okay jokes apart. I'm sorry for saying those dialogues to you on that day. To be honest, I said it intentionally as I wanted to make you angry that day but trust me I didn't really feel the need to party with other girls after you came into my life.
Bani again glared at him suspiciously.
Veer : Okay, I know I forgot about you but yet I didn't feel the need for it when I got to know from Tapish Bhai that I'm married to you. (He was expecting Bani to say something regarding his confession but she asked him a different question instead)
Bani : Can I ask you something?
Veer : Go ahead, sweetheart.
Bani : How did you get to know that I'm working here? I didn't even inform Meera Di about my whereabouts but how did you find it out? (She asked seriously)
Veer burst out laughing and Bani was still looking at him with curiosity.
Bani : Say it, Veeranshu.
Veer : Sweetheart, I was expressing my feelings emotionally to you but all you did is to ask about how did I find out this and that 😒 (He made a sulking face but Bani ignored it and asked him again)
Bani : Faster tell me the answer.
Veer : Okay.
He went near her left ear and she thought he was going to tell the answer but he whispered "that's a secret" and burst out laughing again which made Bani get totally disappointed. He continued his laughing session for a few more seconds which made Bani fume with rage.
Bani : Why the hell are you laughing as if someone here made a joke to you? (She asked annoyingly which made him stop laughing)
Veer : I'm sorry, gharwali. But I can help myself with your cute face when you are in curiosity to know my answer. You said you have moved on but why does it matter to you to know how did I get to know about you? (He asked, raising his eyebrow)
Bani : Because it's about me so I have the rights to know it.
Veer : I will let you know only if you give me a kiss now. (He started teasing her again)
Bani rolled her eyes at him and said
Bani : It will never happen even in your dreams. I don't want to know anything. Just give me the keys. I need to go back home. (She said frustratedly)
Veer : Haha let's see. Come, let's party here. (He said while taking out a bottle of champagne from his drawer)
Bani : Veeranshu, please stop playing. Give me the keys now.
Veer : Gharwali, I said let's party now. The night is still young and the party is still going on at outside so why don't we party here? (He started pouring the champagne into 2 glasses and Bani just wondered why was he pouring into 2 glasses but she just ignored it and asked again)
Bani : Can you please give me the keys? They might misunderstand us if they find out that we are missing there and I believe by now they would get suspicious with our absence. Please Veeranshu, let me go. (She begged)
Veer : Okay, I will let you go. Take a sip first. (He said while forwarding one of the champagne glass to her)
Bani's eyes popped out of the socket due to the shock he gave. She thought how could he ask her to drink. She remembered what happened the last time he asked her to drink the champagne. (The night of their consummation)
Bani : What? Are you crazy? I'm not going to have it. (She pushed away his hand gently as he was holding the glass)
Veer : Sweetheart, please take a sip. Only one sip. Please? (He said while bringing it near her lips)

Bani felt nauseated when she inhaled the smell of the champagne so she tried to move away but again he brought it near her lips and she immediately rushed to the washbasin which was placed at the corner of his cabin. Veer got shocked with her reaction and he placed the glass on the table and rushed behind her to support her head while she was throwing up. Once she stopped, he helped her to wash her mouth and face and made her sit on the couch. He passed her a bottle of water and made her drink it.

Veer : Sweetheart, are you feeling better now? (He asked worriedly)
Bani nodded yes.
Veer : I'm sorry I didn't know that you are allergic to the smell of champagne.
Bani didn't respond to him as she was feeling tired after throwing up.
Veer : Bani, do you want anything to eat? (He asked with concern)
Bani : No. (She rested her back and head on the couch while he was holding her hands)
Veer : You are not feeling well? Let me call the doctor now.
Bani : No, don't! (She shouted)
Veer : Why? You are not feeling well so I think you need a doctor now.
He said while taking out his phone from his pocket to call the doctor. Bani wanted to stop him but before she could speak, she felt nauseous again and immediately rushed to the washbasin. Veer dropped the phone and rushed behind her again. He held her while she was vomiting because she didn't had the strength to stand there due to her weakness. Veer was really worried about her health and he felt guilty for forcing her to drink the champagne. Once done, he made her sit on the couch again and caressed her head.
Veer : Sweetheart, do you feel like throwing up more?
Bani shook her head no as she wasn't able to speak. He made her drink some water again and waited some time to let her feel better. Bani closed her eyes and rested for a while until her phone rang. Veer took her phone and noticed it was Mithra's call so he passed the phone to Bani.
Bani : Hello?
Mithra : Bani, I'm...waiting outside. Please opeeeen the dooooor. (She was drunk)
Bani got panicked that Mithra find out about her being in the MD's cabin and Veer noticed her and whispered "why?". Bani cut the call and tried to get up from the couch but tripped due to her weakness and Veer held her tightly before she could fall down. He made her sit again and asked.
Veer : Bani, where are you going? You are feeling weak so please take rest for some time.
Bani : Vee...Veeranshu, Mithra is waiting outside the..cabin. She asked me to...open the door. (She managed to answer him in her weak condition)
Veer : You just sit here and let me check.
He unlocked the door and checked but there was no one at the door. In fact, all the staffs were found to be nowhere so he looked at his watch only to realise that it was 9:30pm so probably all the staffs went back home. He closed the door and sat beside Bani.
Veer : Sweetheart, there is no one outside. It's 9:30pm so all the staffs went back home it seems. (Bani was shocked to hear him saying it was 9:30pm as she was still in the office)
Bani : Oh God it's too late now and.... (She stopped when her phone rang again)
It was Mithra's call, Veeranshu put it on speaker and Bani spoke with fear.
Bani : Hello?
Mithra : Sweetieee, why....did you cut the.... call just now? Open the.... door. I'm waiting outside.
Bani : Mithra, where are you now?
Mithra : Where... else I will be at this time? (She giggled) I'm waiting....outside the...our apartment. Pleaseeee open the doooor. (Both Veeranshu and Bani were dumbstruck as they had no idea what to tell her then)
Mithra : Helloooo? Baniiii, are you there?
Bani : Haan Mithra. I'm sorry I haven't reach the apartment yet.... I.. I came to meet my friend so can you... please open the door with the spare keys you have?
Mithra : What? You are... not here? I left the spare keys inside the house.
Bani : Oh God!! Mithra, please adjust yourself at Arjun's apartment for a while. I will come there in some time. Please??
Mithra : Arghhh okay! Come fast... wait wait.. (She shouted)
Bani : Haan what's wrong? (She asked worriedly)
Mithra : Sweetie, you haven't take your medicines after dinner. No...wait. Did you have your dinner? (Bani gasped and Veeranshu was looking at her confusedly)
Mithra : Bani??????? Are you there? Don't forget your medicines.
Bani : Okay bye. (She immediately cut the call)

Veeranshu was staring at Bani to know about what Mithra was reminding her. Bani understood that if she stayed there any longer, he would surely inquire her regarding the 'medicines' topic so she tried to look away in order to avoid making the eye contact.
Bani : I need to go home. Bye. (She got up from the couch)
Veer : Bani, wait. You are not feeling well right? Are you taking medicines as your friend mentioned? For what?
Bani's mind voice : Hey Bholenath, please save me from him today. He has started with his Q&A session and it won't stop until he gets the answer.
Veer : Bani???
Bani : It's none of your business. I need to go. (She tried to move but Veer held her arm)
Veer : Bani, please don't start all over again. I need a direct answer to my question. Why are you taking medicines?
Bani : I said it's none of your business, Veeranshu. Leave my hand I have to go now.
Veer : I won't leave your hand until I get an answer from you. (While he was waiting for her response, something struck him)
Veer : Bani, I felt like you have gained weight. Is there any problem with your health?
Bani : What's wrong with you? If someone gains weight it doesn't mean they have any problem with their health. I just don't understand your logic.
Veer : No, I knew you very well and the amount of food you eat everyday so how can you suddenly gained your weight?
Bani : Veeranshu, stop embarrassing me with your stupid questions. It's my wish to either gain or lose my weight. Please don't interfere in that. (All this time she was looking at the other places while answering him to avoid the eye contact and that was what made him to be more suspicious on her)
Veer : Okay sorry, I won't talk about your weight. But now tell me why did you throw up just now?
Bani's mind voice : Bholenath, please save me from his questions now. I don't want him to learn the truth. Please help me, Bholenath.
