Anika Pov

I already decided that I was going to drop Shivaay airport. I didn't informed him because I knew he will not allow me. But I know how to convince him I use his trick on him that he always do with me.

Neither I say anything nor he. I was controlling myself with this new found emotions. All our moments are running in my mind. How fast time flies it felt like yesterday we came here.

As we reached airport my heart beat increased with each second. I seriously hated this feeling. I don't want him to go. If not today but tomorrow we have to go back.

He is about to go when I stopped him. I want to give him the watch that I brought for him. This watch was really looking good in his hand. When my eyes met he held so many emotions in his eyes. I deep down know he also feels same as I feel for him. His eyes were enough to say all things. He is not expressive but his actions spoke volumes.

I warned him also because in anger he forgets everything and again hurt himself. Which I don't like for even a one percent.

It takes me everything to not to cry. When shivaay hugged me then I lost it like every single time. I want to feel this feeling, the warmth to let sink in. Because that's going to give me strength.

Shivaay wiped my tears listening to him automatically smile formed on my lips. His thumb was stroking the side of my cheek. My breath hitched when he bents towards me and placed his lips on my forehead. I closed my eyes my hands automatically held his wrist.

Before I knew he stepped back he has a small smile on his face. With so many emotions in his eyes.He turned around and made his way towards the gate.

I looked his retreating figure. My hands found the way toward my forehead where he kissed me.

What you have done to me shivaay.
How easily you had make your way to my heart.

How ironically this is like few months ago we don't know eachother. And now we don't need words to tell eachother what's going on inside the other. How easily you understand me like we know eachother from years.

I wiped my tears which are not ready to stop flowing. I made ways towards
Washroom I washed my face.

Soon we left I look at the sky were plane was taking off. I looked until it disappeared from my sight. I take deep breaths.

My reverie broken by driver who informed me that we reached farmhouse.

"Mam we reached. "

I make my way inside only to find pinky mom sitting in living room.

" Good morning Anika here come have tea."

" Good morning mom. " I wished taking seat beside her.

" You had gone to airport. " She asked.
To which I nodded she smiled.

" I am happy to know that Anika. Atleast there is someone who is their with him. Because he never allow us. I am also sure he didn't allow you also."

" Yes he denied "

" He is like this only Anika from childhood. He never want anyone to do things for him as he thinks that cause problems or worry others . How much we tried. I know somewhere as a mother I failed. I know when he needed me I was not there with him.
But he never complained.

At a very young age he has taken all the responsibilities on his shoulder.
For him his family is everything. He is ready to fight with anyone and can do anything. But when it comes to himself he doesn't care.He never share his problems and pain with anyone. How much he shows he don't need anyone. He don't get effected or hurt. But as a human we all need someone who can understand be with him.

As a mother I am asking you one promise Anika never ever leave him. After very long time I am seeing him so carefree and happy. I know he stubborn and become angry also. It's little tough to handle him. If he ever show his attitude to you come to me then I will pull his ears. " She chuckled and wiped her tears.

" Mom please don't cry. You are not at all looking good. And if shivaay is stubborn I am double stubborn then him so don't worry. I promise I am not going anywhere. " I said side hugging her. She smiled and wiped her tears.
After giving blessings she left to her room. I came back in mine.

My eyes fall on the place where we were sitting together and talking. I take the frame he has given to me.

Shivaay I don't how you made your way to my heart. But definitely you made your place which is permanent and irreplaceable.

From the time you came in my life everything has changed into good.
It feels like the life I was living just for sake. But now it start feeling like I got the purpose.

You are the only person who understands me even before I say.
Every second of time that I spent with you has become something that I can't give name.

I know we both have different personalities. We are from different backgrounds then also you always respect me and my descision which I always admire.

I also know it is so difficult for you take out time for yourself only. But you are taking out for me . You are running a business you are one who made descision you don't have to ask for others . But for me you are asking my opinions. In every descision you are including me.

You are changing your habits for me. You are doing things which you don't like or not want to do but you are doing.

In this few days I got to know so much about you Shivaay. Shivaay who do everything to see the smile on his family members. Has hiding so much from everyone. The pain, hurt and longing . I had seen in your life.

I had never seen so strong person. If I imagine myself in your place I knew I wouldn't able to tolerate this. But there you are handling and managing everything so effortlessly.

You only tell how I will not fall for you Shivaay how. I had seen the Shivaay Singh Oberoi for world but also see the Shivaay who is hiding behind that Shivaay Singh Oberoi in front of me.
The shivaay who scarified his dream, his childhood, his passion. Who is Pro in hiding his emotions.

I am so looking forward to spend my whole life with you.

I was so confused with all this feeling but I realised I am falling for you. I am falling. And their is no coming back.

I caress his picture in my phone which I taken secretly when he was laughing over Manav jokes.

I see all the pictures and videos of his which I captured. I came in balcony only to find Om sitting in garden all lost.

I made my way in kitchen and prepared tea. Keeping tea in tray. I made my way outside.

" Tea " I forward cup in front of Om. He looked surprised.

" Bhabhi you don't have to do this"

" I was making one for myself. I also need an company so have it. "

I sit in front of him on bench.

" This is so good bhabhi"

" Not better than yours. What happened you are looking lost. "

" Nothing bhabhi just thinking something. "

" You both brothers are same you know" he looked at me in confusion.

" You don't know how to lie Om. And you can try I am very good listener you know. I always say this to your brother also. " to which he smile.

" Did he listen to you??"

" Yes that was tough but at last I win."
to which he smile.

" He is like this only bhabhi. Whatever happens he never share his feelings with others. "

" But now you don't behave like him Om. What's bothering you?? "

" Bhabhi I was thinking if ever one have to make decision when he knows that at whatever he decide he is going to hurt one. Then what he should do??? " I understand the meaning he is asking about himself.
Shivaay has asked him to make decision.

" Well that's depends on the situation. But from my point of view one should listen to what our hearts says. Because mind always think logical.
But heart doesn't. You know your priorities. Keep yourself in both the situation you will get your answer. "
He seems to lost in thoughts I know it's difficult for him.

" What if someone else life is dependent on that descision.??"

" Talk to that person. Make him/ her understand your point of view. And both together make decision. "

"Thanks bhabhi " he says with a smile.

" I told you I am good listener also sometime helpful. "

" I remember the time when Shivaay told me that what type of girl he want as his life partner. " he looked at me with a smile and continued.

" The one who is equal to him. The one who keep up conservation with him. Who think above money and fame. The one who love his family as her maybe more than him. "

" And you are totally same. I am so happy  not because Shivaay finally  found you. But he is getting what he deserves."

Soon gauri, priveer and Manav joined us. Manav told me about the news of Shivaay and Ragini . Seriously at first it effected me but now I know this is nothing. Just people making fake stories.

In evening we decided to wander around the city. At last everyone enjoyed the dinner together . But I am missing Shivaay. I am feeling bad that he is missing this moments. Here we all are enjoying and their is alone and working.

" Bali maa can I sleep with you today "

" Offcourse Ishaan you can "

" No Ishaan you will trouble her " gauri said.

" Maaa "

" Gauri he will not trouble me. Let him be with me please "

" Ohkk but Ishaan don't trouble her"

" Yeahhh " he started jumping here there in victory. God this boy seriously is full of cuteness.

At night I came in room with Ishaan.

" Ishaan now tell me what you want to do "

" First game then story like bale papa "

" Ohk then first go brush your teeth then we will play. "

After playing I started narrating stories to him and he is enjoying so much. Telling how his bale papa tell him different  kind of stories.

His love for Shivaay and Shivaay love for him seriously is different. I don't if Om agree  to go with bade papa to London. How Shivaay is going to live without Ishaan.

My thoughts of chain break by the sound of phone. Ishaan is almost sleep
I quickly silent the phone. Before he awake.

I looked at my phone it's Shivaay call. I messaged him that I will call him after 15 mins.

I looked back at Ishaan who is now sleeping peacefully.  Clutching my fingers tightly in his tiny hands.

After I make sure that he slept I slowly take my hand back. Covering him with quilt properly. I kissed on his cheek. I am going to miss him.

I take my phone and sit near the window. Where I sat yesterday.
I called him.

" Hello " I heard his tried voice and some background sound is also coming.

" You were in office this late "

" That's the first thing you are asking me. " came his sarcastic voice.

" Or what will I ask because I already know your meeting has gone great. You are getting the deal "

" It's not final yet. They will tell after 15 days "

" You will get don't worry. "

" You didn't  pick up the call at first "

" Putting Ishaan to sleep . Which he is not ready. He wants to listen more stories. "

" He is like this only his love for stories. "

" Had dinner. "

" Going to home then I will eat "

" And about lunch "

" Khanna already told you  didn't he ?? "

" He did now don't scold him for this . I asked him to do he is not at fault "

" Obviously now my employees are listening to you then me " I chuckled hearing his irritated voice.

" I didn't cracked the joke"

" Mr. Oberoi you need food stop being irritate have dinner first. Call me when you have your dinner byy "
Without listening his reply I cut the call.

Nothing can be done he has not eaten anything and God knows how many cups of coffee.

I was reading the book when shivaay video call came. I picked it up only to see the tried face of Shivaay.

" I thought you slept."

" No was reading the book "

"That stupid novel "

" Don't say anything to my books "

" I am stating the fact "

" Shivaay no comments on my books "

" Ohk fine "

"How was your meeting ?"

" It's goes well but can't say anything now. We have given our best now rest is on them. "

" You know maa is very upset from you "

" Me why ?? " He looked surprised.

" Because her son-in-law is not coming home . Because she had planned everything how she going to pamper you " today when I told maa about Shivaay she start complaining how on birthday also he didn't came now again he left early.

" I will talk to her tomorrow"

" You better it's between both of you I am not going to listen her complaints"
He looked amused.

" Someone is jealous "

" Why I will be jealous ??"

" It is written on your face Anika "

" I am not jealous " he is annoying me right now. Before I say something.

" Bale papa " Ishaan jumped on my lap. When did he came here.

" Champ why are not sleeping "

" I am not sleepy. Ishaan missing bale papa "

" You are sleepy Ishaan. I  thought you are enjoying story time with your badi maa. "

" Now who is getting jealous " I said.

" I am not jealous I am asking him. "

" Bali maa told me story." He excitedly start telling him story.

" Great I will listen this when you come here now go sleep it's already late. You have to get up early tomorrow. " Shivaay said.

" Bale papa " he said making puppy face.

" No I am not buying this.  Go sleep Ishaan even I am sleeping. Goodnight"

" Goodnight bale papa "

" Goodnight "

I cut the call.

" When did you woke up "

" You were talking to bale papa "

" Ohk now let's go sleep "

We both went and slept.
