Welcome back to the story.....
So let's not waste time and dive into the it.....
Thank you for all of your love and support......
###############################

"So guyzz , you ready for ice cream?"

"Yes!"

"But here's a twist! We are gonna play a game!"

"Twist in eating ice cream! Huh, Swara has lost her brain Ragini....Your sister is abnormal. Lets go from here!"

Ragini chuckles.

"Ae shut up! Don't dare to talk like that about me!!!! Listen now! It's not like something very big but just a small game."

"Tell Swara, I am excited! "

"Haan Ragini, so the game is we have to guess each other's favourite flavour....The one with maximum right answers will have a free ice cream while one with minimum will pay for the winner's ice cream and his too. So ready?"

"Hmm yes!"

"Ok! Take these chits and write your answers..!"

It was a lil easy for Swara and Ragini cuz they already knew each other's flavour but toughest for Laksh....😂

"1"

"2"

"3"

"All show your answers!"

Trio show their answers...

"It's Butterscotch for Ragini
And I guess Banana ice cream for Laksh!"

"Swara yes it's Butterscotch!"

"Oh god! Why such a pathetic flavour for me! I hate bananas."

"Really? But don't monkeys love bananas....It's fine! Exceptions are there!"

Ragini pinches Swara on her arm and shows her fake anger.

" Swara! If you don't mind and shut your mouth so that he could stay in peace!"

Swara makes faces.

"Thank u Ragini or this Daayan would have done anything with me till now!"

"OK OK ! Now the score is 1 on 2 for Swara.."

"Laksh what you wrote.... Show!"

"I wrote Chocolate for Ragini and Bubble Gum flavour for Swara....But I think Ragini already has other favourite flavour!"

"Why you chose this Bubble flavour for me? Cuz you find me bubbly? Oh yeah!"

"Hey come out of your dreams! It is because you look like a Koala."

"Just shut up! And do tell me the logic behind it please!"

"Ya sure, Koala love eucalyptus leaves which comes from Eucalyptus tree which is a Gum tree....So yeah you are a Koala! Hahahahaha!!"

"Just shut up! Shut up! For your kind information! I don't like this flavour !
Stupid...."

"Stop defending yourself!"

"You just shut your nuisance!"

"I hope my turn comes soon!"

"Oh sorry Ragini, this Koala is just an attention seeker! Huh!"

Swara is about to say something but stops seeing the time. She asks Ragini to say her answers.

"Uhm....So 0 on 2 for a 0 and now it's Ragini's turn."

Laksh glares Swara while she chuckles.

"I wrote Green Apple for Swara!
And...uhm...Black Currant for Laksh?"

"Yay Ragini, I knew it you would guess correct for me.... Afterall we are Swaragini, right?"

"Yes Swara! Laksh please tell your answer...."

"You are absolutely right Ragini! But how! It wasn't easy to be guessed right?"

"What ? Seriously she is right? How you know it Ragini?"

Swara asks in amused way.

"Woh...uhm....actually! The day he came to meet me on terrace and gave me his jacket....He came after having ice cream and still a bit fragrance of the flavour came from the jacket so I guessed it...."

She says in a low and embarrassed tone. Her cheeks turned complete red. Laksh was smiling looking at her while Swara ordered Ice creams.

"So 2 on 2 for Ragini......And she is the winner of the challenge. Now as per the rules, Laksh has to pay for her ice cream too."

"Ok!"

They have their ice creams and finally bid bie to Swara. Ragini and Laksh reach at the spot. The window was a lil high. Ragini stands blank when she finds herself high in the air. She frightens and then looks in downward direction to find that Laksh is lifting her from her waist.
She blushes and climbs up. She helps Laksh to come up.

"Thank you Laksh! For the ice cream as well as now for help."

"No problem Ragini....Anytime..Oh I mean never....No I just mean your welcome! Hehehe!"

Ragini cutely smiles at him.

"Ohk I'll go now! Good night! Bie!"

"Bie! Good night...."

Laksh leaves from there and heads towards his room smiling sheepishly. He enters in his room and jumps on his bed. He dives into pool of thoughts with this.

Laksh pov
She actually guessed the flavour so correctly.....Wow...! She is intelligent and smart. Now it's the time that I should take my decision. There is no reason of not marrying her....She is sooooo cute! I know I keep on saying this again and again but she is.. But she is not modern yaar! It's not the problem but the thing is will she be able to cope up with me after marriage? I like late night parties, I would get sometimes late too, will she understand this? I am damn sure she would never accompany me! Oh god ! Now I am in a problem. Ankit married the hottest girl of our college and that jerk even shows off till now cuz I was the hottest boy... huh! But I never liked her but still! I want the most stunning wife, open minded , hot and all...I want the best wife but Ragini.....Wait wait wait...I am being a hypocrite yaar! Just on the basis of dresses she wear doesn't mean she is not open minded...
I am forgetting how bold she is. For the remarriage of her Father she broke her engagement and stood as a strong support for them....It is highly appreciable. Also , accepting other wife of father is not a small thing! I would have never been able to accept that but she is....She is so strong...Even her thoughts are modern than me! Don't forget Laksh that appearances are deceptive. Ragini......What to say about her, the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. She is 200 times beautiful than that jerk's wife. He will get burnt like anything seeing her as my wife. Hehehe! She is mature, smart , a lil shy , meek... He starts smiling.
What a perfect figure she has! I realized it today when her waist was in my arms...... Hehehehe! Oh god , I am blushing. She will look flabbergasting in modern clothes. I hope god gives me a chance seeing her in those modern clothes once in life.
Now coming to the decision, I think I will do a stupid mistake by rejecting a gift of god. I cannot judge her just by her dressing style. She has literally changed my point of view towards judging someone. Ragini is unique. I have no one in my life and I know that I don't love her now but it can happen eventually and maybe I fall like anything for her in future. Maa already loves her like her own daughter. The happiness and smile which comes on her face seeing Ragini is from heart. So, I think I should give her no no not her, myself a chance to take responsibility of a gem like her. I am ready for marriage with her.
My dad has a great choice with girls already. Pari Bhabhi is the greatest example. I remember Bhai also thought that she was not modern but now he loves her like anything. After marriage , just for Bhai, she started wearing modern clothes too...But I would never force Ragini for this.
Enough now! I should sleep.
Pov ends......

He sleeps.....

Next morning........

Laksh is still sleeping in his room while Dada,Dadi and Shekhar were having breakfast and Ragini was serving them.

"Laado, you also come with us Na?"

"Daadi I am not hungry now!"

"Where is Laksh? I hope he is not sleeping till now!"

"N-n-n-no no papa, He went for...uhmm... haan...He went for jogging. Health freak you see!"

Ragini wipes off the sweat from her head.

"Hmmmm! Good.... Accha Beta I am taking your Grandparents to Mandir, we will return soon...Ok? And you have your breakfast on time! Don't remain hungry ...."

"OK Papa!"

They go and Ragini closes the door. She immediately goes into the kitchen and prepares coffee for Laksh cuz once Pari told her on phone that he doesn't get up without his coffee. She goes inside the room. Laksh was sleeping facing his back to the ceiling and due to breeze his hairs were flying making him look adorable.
Ragini freezes there for a moment but then comes back into senses. She keeps the coffee on the nightstand and goes towards Laksh to wake him up.

"Laksh! Laksh! Get up please. It's 9:00 by now....."

No response. She was so hesitant to touch him. But after many tries when he was not waking up. She Finally started shaking him.

"Laksh! Get up! See, I have prepared coffee for you..."

Listening to coffee he immediately wakes up which was unexpected for Ragini. She loses her balance and falls on him and her face gets buried in his crook.

Both get losted in the moment for a while. They were numb to react to the situation. Ragini slowly gets up from him and stands at a distance, her face being completely red. She was blushing so so so hard.

Laksh was himself so shocked. It was very awkward.

"Co..Co..Co... coffee...."

Saying this Ragini gets out of the room and goes into the kitchen to prepare breakfast for him. After some time, Laksh comes out of the room being ready.

He looks in the kitchen to see Ragini making food. To avoid the awkward moment between them he goes to the kitchen and sits on the slab.

"Good Morning Ragini!"

Ragini is still embarrassed she just replies hmmmmm.

"Woh I am sorry Ragini, actually I love coffee so you know uhm.....By the way coffee was fantastic and yeah don't feel awkward it's totally fine..."

"Thank u Laksh!"

"No problem..... Accha I am very hungry, What are you making?"

"I am making aloo parantha...."

"Hey!!! That's my favourite..."

"What a coincidence! Even I love them."

"Hmmmm....By the way Ragini, today I am going to meet Omi, he has arranged to bring some clothes for me from my house because it's your parents marriage day after tomorrow so I need to look the best."

"Even better than the groom?"

"Yes so that the bride chooses me!"

"Then Swara would get his favourite person as his father..."

"And I will get the worst daughter."

Both laugh on their talks.....And have breakfast together. Laksh praises her handmade food a lot. She smiles.

"Don't wait for me! I'll return late night cuz I am going for a late night party..."

Listening to this Ragini's face falls down. She herself doesn't know why but she didn't like the fact that Laksh will not be with her that day.

"Bie Ragini. Please handle the situation ."

"Bye...You don't worry!"

He goes and she returns to work. After cleaning up the kitchen she goes to Laksh's room and sets it.
She smiles doing all this. Then she goes to her room and lays down on the bed. She was alone at home so she thoughts to call Swara.

"Helloo! Swara! Please come over naa! I am alone..."

"Coming..."

Swara was excited to listen "I am alone" like she was a desperate boyfriend of Ragini. She comes in no time through window of Ragini.

Here at Laksh's side.......

"No Omi, I am not Hungry at all....I had 3 aloo paranthas. What must she be thinking about me!!!"

"This, that what a petu { word describing foodie in a funnier way} you are!"

"Shut up! But those were really heaven. She cooks even better than Bhabhi whose handmade food is my favourite."

"Bro, even she looks 1000 times better than your ex girlfriends."

"Omi they were just friends. I had no girl in my life. Don't spoil my reputation..."

"Alright but Why you don't want to marry her?"

"There is nothing like that. I will marry her. She is just perfect for my family.."

"And for you tooo Laksh! Maybe she seems shy and introvert...But she is really strong. She can support you in your hard times. Most importantly she is changing you Lucky!"

"I know everything Omi, But will she be happy with me?"

"It's your responsibility to keep her happy Laksh. Seeing her it seems she is not one from those typical demanding wives. Aren't you confident about yourself that you will be able to keep your wife happy?"

"Thank you Omi! You are the expert advisor Bro! I am confident to keep her happy...."

"That's like Laksh Maheshwari..!"

"Yaaas!"

Swara and Ragini spend a lot of time together till Shekhar and all return. Swara jumps out from the window and goes. Ragini again feels lonely and the thing that Laksh will return late annoys her more. In order to distract herself she starts reading a book.

Swara, meanwhile in her house goes and lays down on her Maa's lap. They discuss about shifting to their new house, Gadodia house. Swara is excited to move in with Ragini.

Laksh decides to talk to his Maa regarding the relation with Ragini.
He calls her and tells her that he is ready to marry Ragini. Annapoorna is beyond happy with Laksh's decision. She conveys this Durga Prasad who is shocked to know that Laksh who once denied to marry Ragini has accepted her.
He was very happy.

But some one is gonna come in the story........
