He does not know, if he ever returned anything to her.. but he promised himself now, that he would never let her go now.. He would never push her, hurt her, blame her.. This woman had his heart, she always had.. it took him so long to understand it, because he was always a fool.. but now that he has understood he would never let her go.. No matter how much Akshara  got angry, he would fight for her, for them, for their love.. He might be a slow learner but he was not a loser.. It was always Akshara  fighting for him, but now he will fight for them.. he

wont let sahil or anyone come between them.. She was his and he was hers.. 

He will make her realise that he loves her too and always did.. he would make her see

that her love was reciprocated and that too unconditionally.. he was grateful that despite drifting apart, she came back to him, became his wife..may be universe too was on

their side.. whatever it is.. He loved Akshara  and he would keep loving her always.. and he

would make all her pain go away.. she can't leave him now, he wont just let her.. with the final realisation, he kissed her on the crown of her head lovingly and said, "sleep tight Wifey, we have a long way to go now.." and with

this he drifted into sleep, holding her possessively in his arms...

Next morning the light of the sun had fallen into abhira's  bedroom.... 

Abhimanyu  was sleeping while holding akshara  close to him with akshara  back against his chest.

However ...the outside light had.started to disturb akshara  sleep ....she  slowly opened her eyes and for a sec thought she was in her room at the goenka  mansion but when she looked carefully she realised she was at the birla mansion in kadhoos birla room...he is becoming a little sweet again... she was about to stretch her hand 

suddenly she felt someone hugging her from the back and   a hand tightly wrapped

around her waist wondering who it was... she stiffened for a sec and was scared a bit 

Akshara  in her head: ye hath kiska hai.. aur mujhien kyun pakda hua hai... Kahi bed ke niche wala ghost toh nhi agya....nahi nahi..akshara yaar tum pagal ho... subhe kaise bhoott

ayien ga ...(whose hand is this... and y is it holding me?...has the ghost come from under the bed?... no no akshara  u r mad... how can a

ghost come in the morning) 

She decided to shift a little and turned her face to see it was Abhimanyu

Akshara  in her head: phew it's only Abhi ...but ek second Abhi  ne mujhien kyun pakda hai (phew it's only Abhimanyu  but one sec...y has he held me)

As akshara shifted...Abhimanyu frowned and pulled akshara  closer to him while he wrapped his hand tightly around her waist in a spoon position...whereas akshara  stiffened when she felt Abhimanyu  breath failing on to her ears as it just made her feel goosebumps 

Akshara  in her head: oyee.. how did we end up like this... if Abhimanyu  sees us like this then god knows what will happen... maybe he slept like this in his sleep..but if he wakes up and sees us like this..he would.probably blame it on me...but I have to get out of his grip..but how? 

Abhimanyu  took a deep breath inhaling her hair making akshara chain of thoughts break as she felt him breathing right in her hair..and this time she felt a shiver run down her spine while her lips parted slowly 

Akshara  in her head:akshara  concentrate and think.. u need to get out of Abhimanyu grip

anyhow...and that also without waking him up .

Akshara  slowly started to move out of his group... Abhimanyu opened his eyes slowly to see akshara  trying to get out his grip.. he smiled naughtily and closed his eyes when akshara  looked at him.. 

as she was about to move he.grabbed her wrist and pulled her down again while she watched him sleeping as he pulled her closer again 

Akshara  looked at Abhimanyu  and then his hand around her waist... she thinks he is doing it

in sleep unaware that it's all been done purposely.

Abhimanyu  slowly opened his eyes seeing akshara  expression and laughed from inside 

Abhimanyu  in his head: akshara ... no sorry.. dear wifey get ready to be showered with Abhimanyu  birla love and now I wont let u go away from me 

He took another deep breath wheras akshara  felt it on her neck making her feel something tingle inside her again

Akshara :I was so close to moving out of Abhimanyu  grip but got stuck again she thought to herself 

Suddenly she saw a round pillow next to her and takes it to try and replace it with her.. Abhimanyu  was watching her without her knowing and smiled seen her state and decided not to tease her..few sec later he started to

loosen his grip.. as akshara  felt that she instantly placed a pillow in her

place and got up quickly and ran to the washroom.. while Abhimanyu  opened his eyes and pushed his hair back while smiling boyishly 

30 mins later akshara came out of the washroom wearing a blue sareee and sat in front of the dressing table... she was drying

her hair while Abhimanyu  was just busy watching her 

Abhimanyu  in his head: think Abhimanyu  think.. how will u approach akshara ... 

When akshara put bangles on and then earrings... she took a matching ring and put it on her finger ...he then saw her pick up the sindhoor box 

Abhimanyu : this is the time that I start approaching her as her husband... he thought to himself..

As akshara opened the box she took a pinch of

sindhoor and was about to put it on when Abhimanyu  stopped her...surprised to see him awake 

Abhimanyu :akshara wait he said getting of the bed 

Akshara  what happened Abhi  she asked turning around in her seat 

Abhimanyu  took the sindhoor box of her as he reached near 

Abhimanyu : wifey let me do this.

He said while akshara  was shocked as to what he said 

Akshara :Abh...abhi...r u ok? I mean u

want to put.. she left her sentence incomplete 

Abhimanyu :y? Cant I put sindhoor

on my wife? Akshara  is again shocked but composed herself .

Akshara :not it's not like that but u have never said or done that but it's ok u can do it..if u want to 

Abhimanyu  smiled and took a pinch of the sindhoor and filled her forehead

He bent.over and placed the box on the dressing table and got hold of the mangsutra and moved it around akshara  neck.. as he was

trying to do the.clasp he traced her neck smoothly with his fingers...akshara  breathing

stopped for a sec while her hands

clutched together... 

Abhimanyu  was.able to tell by akshara  expression as to how she was feeling 

Abhimanyu :.this is just the.start of Abhimanyu  birlas love wifey he thought in his head

As Abhimany  continued to stroke her neck now and then akshara  took a deep breath in and

sat straight. 

Abhimanyu :what happend wifey? 

Akshara :nothing Abhi 

Abhimanyu :no something has happened tell me 

Akshara : honestly it's nothing. 

Abhimanyu  smiled seeing her look here and there 

Akshara  in her head:ye kya ho raha hai... mai sapna toh nahi dekh rahi na...Abhimanyu  aisa

behave kar raha.hai...wifey bol raha hai 

(what is happening... am I dreaming or what..Abhimanyu  behaving like this...calling me his wifey ).. she thought as she

isnt aware about him doing this all intentionally 

Akshara :Abhimanyu  y dont u get ready I will go and get breakfast ready she said getting up as Abhimanyu  was done putting the mangalsutra on her 

Abhimanyu  smiled and happily went to take a shower while akshara  went to make breakfast while her mind was still thinking about what just happened upstairs 

20 mins later Abhimanyu  came down wearing his uniform while breakfast was ready too 

As all were eating their breakfast Abhimanyu  spoke 

Abhimanyu : akshara .. after breakfast I'll drop u to the orphanage... 

Akshara : Abhi that is not needed as sahil will be coming so dont worry 

Abhimanyu : no I will drop u ...sahil can meet u there directly as it will be long for him to come here

Akshara : it's ok dont worry I will go with papa..

Harshvardan:oh yes I dont mind dropping akshara  off it will be fun with us duo what say beta he said while akshara  and the rest smiled 

Abhimanyu : dont worry  dad I'm going and

I'm going in that direction so I will drop u he said to her while.akshara  thought 

akshara  : ok.fine i will go with u she said after a second 

Mahima:now if the discussion is.done finsh your breakfast she said.. 

Once all finished their breakfast abhira  then said bye to the family and headed out to

Abhimanyu. car... 

Once they got in the car 

Akshara  sunddenly saw Abhimanyu   coming closer to her ..and their face was

close to each.other..his left hand was placed on her seat near her thighs and his.right hand near her right ear.. her breath hitched

Their face was really close .. akshara  got very

nervous..

Akshara : Abhimanyu  yeh kya kar rahien ho?? she said trying to speak normally but

wasnt able to 

(Abhimanyu  what r u doing) 

Abhimanyu :.tumhe kya lag raha hai ke mai kya kar raha hoon? He whispered 

( what do u think I am doing?) 

Akshara  was looking everywhere but not in his eyes...small sweats gathered near her forehead

akshara : mai wo.. 

Abhimanyu  got more close to her and looked at her lips... 

Akshara  parted her lips and then nervously licked her lips.. totaly nervous with the sudden closeness..

As Abhimanyu  was close to her he brushed his lips on her left cheek for a sec.. 

Akshara 's eyes widened and was totally shocked

He then pulled her seat belts across her.. 

Abhimanyu : seatbelt akshara ...

seat belt.. being a responsible doctor meri wifey ka khayal mujh ko rakhna hoga na he said smirking inside totaly enjoying teasing her obviously he did that.intentionally.  

(seatbelt akshara.... seat belt.. being a doc I have to look after my wife na) 

Akshara  first.was in daze but then got out of it and.was a little.irriated.. 

Akshara :.wo mai lagane wali thi but u didnt let me. Mooh se bata sakte the.. 

( I was actually going to do it but u didnt let me... u could of said by speaking) 

Abhimanyu : arey akshuu Jo baat karne mai hai wo bolne mein kaha

 ( what's then fun in saying than doing )

Akshara : what??

Abhimanyu :what what?? Kuch bhi toh
