Anika Pov

After having dinner i came back to room. I take my phone from side table to only see 10 missed calls from Shivaay and approx 15 messages.

But neither i am going to call him back nor going to reply. He is not only one who can ignore others calls or messages. From the time I see the news of Shivaay I am panicking because in that pic I am standing in front of him. This is all new to me and except  family members and close relatives nobody knows about my marriage.

If anyone recognise me it's gonna be problem. Even papa and rudra get to know and that idiot brother of mine is teasing me since morning.

And after trying so many times he didn't pick up my call not even reply. I called to Gauri. Even Shivaay is not picking their call.

Flashback.

" Hello Gauri "

" Hello bhabhi "

" Shivaay is at home "

" No bhabhi Bhaiya directly go to office from airport."

" Ok I am calling him but he is not receiving. "

"Bhabhi we are also trying but I know he must be angry so he will not receive anyone call.And about news bhabhi don't take tension bhaiya will take care of that. "

" Ohk byy I have to go Gauri I will talk to you later "

" Sure bhabhi byy "

Flashback end

My mood is off from morning. When I came back home gauri video call. She said mom and dad is out of station they only in home enjoying today so she wanted me to join. I feel so lucky have them in my life. It's just month we came close to eachother. Gauri is showing me Oberoi mansion. And i don't have words to describe the beauty of house. She just show me temple , living room , dining room. We were talking causally when I asked about Ishaan she said. He with Shivaay and Om in kitchen as they are in duty to make dinner. It's new information for me. She entered in kitchen, showing only Shivaay. She already told me not to say anything.
And their he is standing with Ishaan on counter cooking something and scolding Om. He didn't tell me that he knows cooking or as Gauri said he make World's best pasta. And he cooks like a celebrity chef. And coming to me I know only basics. He is pro in everything. And deep down i really want to taste his handmade food.

Om and Shivaay is bantering and when he said about Gauri pregnancy Om chokes water. This is new side of Shivaay I am seeing today. He always remain serious, calm and compose. And the last excepted thing Shivaay night dress to be Indian. Even Om also wearing kurta and pajama.
And he is looking more handsome in that kurta pajama with blue apron. Why he has to look handsome in every thing. Anika focus you are angry with him.

When gauri told them about video he looked shocked but he didn't say anything even didn't look rather busy in cooking. Om and Ishaan talked to me  this guys are very funny I told you.

But today I am not going to talk to him. Whatever is reason behind but this is not the right way.

Again he is calling me. I switched off my phone. I take my book and sit on my favourite spot and start reading it. But today only one person thoughts is filled in my mind. Today I didn't talk now I am feeling restlessness it's became part of our life to talk at night. I met him yesterday only but then also the feeling of voidness is forming in me.

Mr. Shivaay Singh Oberoi because of you I am not able to concentrate. I kept book aside. I decided to go Rudra room. Let's see what this Devil is doing.

Without knowing I came inside only to find him playing video games.
His love for games is something I never understand.

"Again you are playing games. You don't have other things to do Rudra."

"Today only my internship is ended for your kind of information.But what are you doing here. "

" You are saying as if I am coming first time " I said rolling my eyes.

"But as much i know you always remain busy in talking with Shivaay jiju. What happened today. " he said grinning.

" Nothing is like that rudy and I am noticing you are start talking too much "

" Haha as if you don't know now tell me what happened "

"Nothing if you are having problem then I am going "

" Are wait i am hungry "

" I am not going to cook anything for you "

" Please I want to eat something cooked by you di  "

" You have to help me "

" Yeah come. "

We came downstairs maa papa must be asleep till now. We sneak in kitchen. It's not first time we are doing this. Whenever he want to something at midnight he came to me to make something for him.

" What you want to eat "

" Cheese Maggie "

" Then cut the veggies "

We start making  we came back to his room.

" Wow di you make best cheese Maggie. I love it "

" Well I know but thanks for the compliment. "

"But seriously what happened why your mood is off today "

"I already told you rudra I am fine "

" You fight with jiju don't you "

" I didn't fight with him. Why you feel. I am the one who fight with him "

" Because " he said eating maggie.He took his phone and open his whatsapp and showed me Shivaay message.

"See jiju messaged me asking about you "

" You will not reply him "

" Tell me reason first di "

" I don't wanna talk to him that's by i switched off my phone "

"But why you don't wanna talk to him"

" That because I am angry with him and now don't ask me the reason "

" Ok but talk to him rather than ignoring "

"See who is saying. Who ignore phone for the slightest things."
I said chuckling. And he glare me.
After playing two games. I came with empty plates after washing them I came back room.

" Rudra already inform Shivaay that I am with him " now only he join his team.

I switched on my phone.  Only to see Shivaay calls and messages.

Serves him better.

Now he will not ignore my calls.
But today I am not going to call him.

It's already late. I should sleep.
But today it's seems sleep is not ready to come.  Then only my phone start ringing. And it's flash Mr. Oberoi.
Why he is calling me at this time.

I pick up the call.

" Thank god you pick up the call or else I thought you pledge not to talk "
Came his voice with sarcasm.

" It's this way how you talk. And i am not picking up your call that's means I don't to talk. So good night. "

" Hey Anika wait. That's why I called you to know the reason behind why you don't want to talk "

" You are talking like you don't know anything "

" Then why I will ask to you "

He again questions me. He very well know how to play words.

" You will let me sleep or not "

" Until and unless you will tell me reason "

I can't win from him.

" Because of the stunt that you pulled at morning "

" Wait what because of that "

"Happy realisation Mr. See how many time I called you."

" I know I m at fault but at that time I was very angry . I didn't want my anger to come down on you or on anyone else. For sure that was  the last thing you want to see. Because anger bring my worst side. "

" Whatever is  the reason but this is not right Shivaay you know that.Even Gauri and Om is worried for you. "

" I know I am at mistake. "

"Then what for you waiting apologize"

" And why will I apologize "

" You are at mistake you should "

" You also have to you also didn't recieve my call and top of that you switched off "

" But I didn't do any mistake. I am upset with you "

" Then I am also not going to apologize "

"That's why I always say you are so full of yourself ".

A simple sorry he is not able to say.  what will happen in future.

" Anyway why you didn't sleep it's quite late. "

" Same thing I can ask "

"Can you stop asking questions for a question. Or else I am cutting the call"

" Ohkk nothing working and you also didn't picking up my calls. "

" Again you are working till late "

" That's my habit "

" You have weird habits you know "

" What's weird in this "

" That for you to find out. You didn't tell me that you know cooking "

" You never ask me "

Silence. Yes I never ask him.

" Hello are you their "

" Yeah I just didn't except this so "

"You mean I can't cook "

" I am not saying their are only few man know cooking. Even rudra don't know how to cook "

" It's quite late you should sleep good night "

" Good night "

I keep the phone aside. I laid down on bed. And it will be wrong to say that I want to know him more. About his life style, his time table about his meetings , about his friends everything about him.

There are so much to ask and so much to talk but my silence towards the end  may give him impression maybe I am uninterested or maybe tried or he is making me uncomfortable to what not.

But it's not like that. I wait for his call .
I wanted to talk to him I wanna tell him so much. For that I have to open up with him. I have to speak more express myself more share more.
I know he will not say anything if feel them also. The way he understands me no other understand me.

Future is holding so much for us. And for him I have to move on from past. Not for me but for Shivaay for our relationship.

He is already told he is not good in expressing himself but he far better than me. He is trying to out from his comfort zone. I also have to. It's new for me but it's new for him also. He is taking step ahead. I also have to.

With this thought sleep engulfed me.
