Siya's POV:

There was heat produced in water tonight!!!

His lips kept tracing me like I was his secret oasis found in the middle of a desert and I didn't want him to stop...

He was gentle yet definitely didn't want to behave like a gentleman!

And honestly neither I wanted him to...

I wanted him as much as he wanted me...

Our lips were fighting it out in a battle of romance....

And I definitely didn't want him to win... I had equal passion within that I wanted him to know is for him...

Him only...

Just when we were drowning any further we heard a door knock...

And next second I gathered myself but to my surprise my husband was in no mood to let me go
..

'Raghav... Uh....someone's at the door' I told him softly while still drowning under his wet lips that were creating a havoc on my jaws and igniting the heat on my neck and shoulders...

When I felt him still digging into my neck I pushed him slightly..
'Raghav....door' I told him and next minute he was finally back to his senses...

He got out of the tub and went and picked a bathrobe and opened the door..

I stayed in washroom to avoid the embarassment...if anyone knew I was with Raghav in washroom it would definitely cause a big scene.

I was blushing hard...

While I was waiting for Raghav to come back but to my surprise Raghav was taking a lot of time...

Finally I took the towel and started drying my hair and slowly put my neck outside the washroom to see what is happening while I heard Dad talking to Raghav .. they both seemed to be in a serious conversation...

But all I heard Raghav say was ..
'Ill talk to Siya dad...I'm here....We will leave to London tomorrow itself...you don't worry'

And next I heard the door knob click ..

I stepped out of washroom and I saw Raghav stand there pressing temple of forehead and slowly ruffling his hair ...

'Raghav any problem?' I asked him...

He looked at me and I saw worry on his face...

He came closer to me, held my hand and made me sit on the couch and kneeled down in front of me and said...

'Listen... I want you to be brave... I'm with you Always... you are my brave warrior girl hmmm?' he asked...

Now my heart starting beating non stop...

I was shit scared...

He held my hand and said...
'Siya... Your grandma...your Daadu... suffered a stroke few minutes back'

And my world stopped 🥺

I sat there like a dead body... I couldn't analyse anything...
'She is serious Siya...she wants to see you...us'

And next second I broke down like a little girl in his arms...
He held me tightly and cooed me closer...
'Daadu is my life Raghav.....I ...I....'

I was unable to complete the statement and next second Raghav kept kissing my forehead...
'We are going to London this morning...get up let's do the packing...' I said and I looked at his face...

'You... you'll... come??? Anuj's roka ceremony' I said...

'My entire family is here Siya... They will manage the Roka ceremony...your Grandmother is my grandmother too.. And our family needs us the most...you need me Siya... I'm here with you always' he said and I crashed against his chest...

'Raghav....I.....I....' I couldn't say anything...

'I know Siyu...Calm down... ' he kept hugging me till I felt Better...

His warm embrace makes me feel everything is good...safe and sound..which is all I needed to remain sane right now...

After a few minutes we got ready and walked out...I saw Gayathri ma, Daadi and Ram papa all three standing there...

We took their blessings while Daadi kissed my forehead and said..
'My best friend is badass...Buddhi ko kuch nahi hoga ...(Nothing will happen to that old woman) while still in tears' while dad told Raghav that if anything he's here...for both M&S and BER Group...

While Maa kept a small idol of Ganesha on my hand and said...
'He is Vighnaharta (Wards of evils)...keep him closer to you... And be brave my darling' and kissed my forehead and next second I hugged maa...

The comfort of a mother's chest I needed the most right now...

Soon I and Raghav boarded flight and reached London at the earliest possible.
Although it was a 10 hours flight...we reached London by evening...

We reached hospital directly and I was been pulled into a tight hug by Bhabhima...

They told me Daadi suffered a hemorrhage and is battling it with an entire left side gone paralyzed.

I was shocked, broken and tarnished...

While Samay Bhai tried to console Bhabhi non stop and next minute when I got to know Bhabhi is 3 weeks pregnant I was shocked...

After 13 years Bhabhi was expecting.

This was a moment we waited our lifetime and I knew how special this was for both Bhai and bhabhima...

"Please Deepa...you have to take care in this condition' Bhai said and I was hugging Bhabhi tighter...

What a moment...there is Daadi suffering in ICU there and here we are announced the biggest happiness of our lives...

Tears were two sided...
Happiness and sadness both!

Soon dad asked Samay Bhai to take bhabhima home but she was hellbent but then the strict hospital rules...there was no point in her staying there...
Half heartedly and after getting lectured by Dad she agreed to go home...

While Raghav informed Ram papa that we were here in London.

We were all waiting in hospital while doctor finally confirmed Daadi is out of danger.

Dad looked tired so we asked him to go home. I and Raghav stayed in hospital.

Raghav stood by me as my biggest support! From talking to doctors to organizing everything he managed everything.

Finally after 7 days Daadi was shifted to the ward.

Raghav stayed in hospital with Daadi and me inspite of non stop trying to convince him...he was hell-bent...

'This is my family Siya...you go if you want' he would say and stuff a spoon full of soup into Daadi's mouth who would find it quite tough to eat hard food.

But was enjoying my and Raghav's stupid fights everyday.

But in between all these stupid fights... there was a feeling of strong sensation within me saying ...

Why is this man so good... Raghav did everything as a grandchild would do to take care of his grandmother...from feeding her to giving her bed pan when I had slept...
He treated my Daadi no less than his own...
He even called her Daadu like me...
He also found a new name for her...
'Girlfriend'

He would keep everyone happy...from nurses to doctors... even my Daadi...he would read verses of Ramayana for her to coo her to sleep and when she would sleep he would start working...

After 15 days doctor discharged Daadi and she was shifted to our home...
When we stepped into our house I was up for a shock 😳

I was welcomed by a huge crowd!!!

Yes!!! Sehgals...

My family was here...

My eyes literally popped out seeing everyone here ...

Next second Anuj and Urmi pulled me into s tight hug...

While Raghav kept smiling...

And finally Janaki Daadi told us that they are for Anuj Urmi's Roka that will be happening tonight...

And I looked at both Anuj and Urmi in a state of shock...

'Their Roka was supposed to be 19 days back...I mean'

To which Laxman chachu pulled me in a side hug saying...
'Our daughter wasn't with us.... Family function needs a complete family right beta'

And he kept hand on my head...

While Janaki Daadi came closer and said...
'We are family Siyu.... Raghavendra and you complete it... When our babies are fighting something this hard here...can we all celebrate? So when Alisha told us that you had plans of having a London wedding for Anuj-Urmi we Sehgals took the suggestion a bit seriously...so we sre here...And after all your husband made all the arrangements like a one man army...we only have to fulfill rituals na' she said and I happened to look at Raghav who was making my Daadi drink a few drops of water with spoon...And when I looked at him he passed me a warm smile...

A string being pulled in my chest...

How can someone be this perfect!!!

He took care of me...

He took care of my family...

He handled his and my work both...

He took care of my Daadi more than me myself...

He organised everything...

Husband... friend...son... grandson... brother...

Perfection beyond limit...
He played every role like he was made to be this perfect!

***

Entire Sehgal family settled in our huge mansion...

While there was a huge crowd on dinner table of both our families Malhotra's and Sehgal's after Anuj Urmi's Roka ceremony was done...Bhabhi ma and Samay Bhai entertained them ...Newly engaged love birds were lost in each other's eyes while our friends and family teased them to death... the wedding date was of next Sunday...7 days and these two cuties were going to be one...that happiness beamed on everyone's happy faces... While in between all this ...I saw my dad, Raghav's dad, Raghav and Janaki Daadi missing...

While I saw my dad and Raghav's dad hug each other outside Daadu's room...

My dad rubbed his face and said...
'Im lucky to now have another son in Raghav ...Ram your...no...my son is the best thing that has happened to Siya... Trust me...the accidental wedding was Indeed Written in their Destiny... I'm glad that happened...god has blessed me beyond limits...my daughter is blessed.. thank you'

While I also had tears in my eyes...

I slowly walked towards Daadu's room once both our fathers went away...

I saw Janaki Daadi cracking silly jokes while Raghav was feeding my Daadu...

I had tears in my eyes while a strong sense of feeling covered my chest...

He's a blessing...

My heart said loudly...

Indeed...

While my heart was beating loudly...

While Raghav saw me standing at the door and he passed me a smile...

That smile...was a feeling of assurance that he's here!

With me! For me! For my dear ones!!!

I felt he was filling my shallows and reaching the depth in my heart and probably sitting on throne there like a lone king who captured a kingdom...

King of my heart❤️

While I realisation hit me hard...

I was falling for him...

My heart was beating for him...

He was beating within me...

I was falling in love ❤️ with this man 🥺
