Sameer and Naina both reached the restaurant on time and his friends had already reached. Sameer wrapped his hand on the waist of his beloved wife and pulled her near him showing his haq on her and started walking towards where his friends were sitting. On reaching them, Abhishek got up and welcomed Sameer and Naina.

Four of his friends had come, three of whom were with their wives. Sameer first shook hands with his friends and then greeted their wives and he also introduced Naina to everyone. After this Abhishek offered everyone to sit.

As soon as they all seated Abhishek's wife Diya asked Naina. "Abhishek bata rahe the aap dono ki love marriage hai...Naina aap Sameer ji se kahan mili thi."

Naina was surprised thinking Sameer told about their love and before answering she looked at Sameer who passed a sweet smile to her and gestured through his eyes to give answer.

"Mai Sameer se apne college ke first day mili thi... par us time mujhe inka naam tak pata nahi tha." She said honestly and glanced her husband once again.

Just then Sameer's other friends which name was Ankit his wife asked Naina. "Wow aap dono ki love story to interesting lagti hai... pahli baar kisi ki real love story sunne ko mil rahi hai, varna yahan to hum sab ki arrange marriage hi hai... you are lucky Naina... kya aap dono ke ghar wale aapki love marriage ke liye aasani se maan gaye the?... Kyoki aaj bhi hamare samaj me love marriage ko achha nahi mante hai."

Hearing the question, Naina flinched her place and a nervousness overpowered her heart. Sameer noticed it as her hands trembling and her palms were curling into fist.

Before Naina thinking what should i answer Sanjay interrupted everyone attention of his loud voice. "Ye kya puchhne baith gaye aap log, pahle khana order kar le phir baatein hoti rahengi... to bataiye kya order kare."

Sameer's other friend name Aniruddh suggested, when the party was held for Sameer and Naina, so why not they both place the order. Everyone agreed to his suggestion and Sanjay passed the menu card to Sameer and Naina. Sameer preferred to Naina choice, so he asked to Naina. But she was fidgeting her dupatta due to nervousness and pleaded to Sameer through eyes. He understood her hesitation and he reassured her by blinking of his eyes and pressed her hand under the table. Then she decided to order two dishes and rest of food was ordered by Sameer.

Everyone noticed Naina's nervousness and Sameer effort to make her normal. Seeing Naina condition they decided that they will not bother her asking unnecessary question. When the food arrived everyone served their plate. Sameer was busy chatting with his friends and Naina with their wives.

Suddenly Ankit asked Sameer. "Are yaar Sameer honeymoon pe kahan gaye the."

Sameer chocked his food and Naina immediately gave the water glass and rubbed his back. Sanjay became alert seeing his facial expression. There was a unknown feeling on his face that was incomprehensible. He also insisted him. "Haan Sameer kahan gaye the... tumne bataya nahi... hum se kya sharmana... Tumhare friends hi hai yaar."

Now Sameer was dilemma what would he tell and once again looked at Naina who fidgeting with the spoon. He replied confidently. "Next Monday Shimala jane wale hai...Wo kya hai na, office ka important kaam aa gaya tha to pahle nahi jaa paye the... Vaise ye rules to kahi nahi hai ki marriage ke turant baad honeymoon jaana hota hai... wo to kabhi bhi ja sakte hai."

Sanjay exchanged i know look to Abhishek and Abhishek immediately changed the topic.

"Sameer tumhare college chhodne ke decision se bahut student sad ho gaye hai... Tumhari teaching skill hi impressive hai yaar koi bhi tumhara fan ho jayega." Abhishek praised his teaching skill.

Sameer was overwhelmed and said remembering his college day. "Mere isi skill ki vajah se to mujhe aur Naina ko pyaar hua tha... kyo Naina."

Sameer looked at his blushing wife and he too smiled. "Aur dubara isi skill ki vajah se hum mile aur aaj husband wife hai... Ye college to hamesha mere dil ke kareeb rahega aur yahan ke staff aur student ko to mai kabhi nahi bhul paunga, khaskar tum sab ko... its most precious place of my life."

"Sameer ji kuch samajh nahi aaya... Padhane ki vajah se pyaar... Matlab." Aniruddh wife asked.

"Hamare college ke professor ne mujhe Naina ki help karne ko kaha tha uske project me... phir mai uske doubt clear karne laga... aur hum... Ab aage ka Naina se puchiye." Sameer left the story knowingly as he wanted she to contribute telling story.

Everyone insisted to tell further story and Naina threw a hard glare to Sameer but he ignored and said. "Batao Naina sab janna chahate... Vaise bhi pyaar pahle tumhe hua tha to batao."

"Aur aapko nahi hua tha... jo aap nahi bata sakte." Naina scolded him.

"Maine kab kaha nahi hua... hua tha bahut baad me." Sameer replied with a wink.

"Please Naina batao na." Diya insisted.

Naina looked at him angrily then said further. "Phir hum library me milne lage... kabhi kabhi college time se pahle bhi milte the lekin hamesha library me... hamare pyaar ko parwaan chadhane me library ka important part hai... Yahan mai roi bhi aur Sameer ne mere aansun bhi pochhe the."

"Aur iss tarah hame pyaar hua tha." Sameer completed the story.

"Ye to batao pahle propose kisne kiya... kya ye bhi library me hua tha." Abhishek asked curiously.

"Sameer ne... maine... India gate par." Both said together.

"India gate par." Everyone looked both of them with a perplexed look.

"Are panch saal baad yahan Delhi me kiya tha." Sameer cleared their confusion.

Then everyone finished their dinner with some light jokes.

After a light hearted dinner they all were about to leave for the parking, Sameer's mobile buzzed and he said that he and Naina would join them later in the parking lot.

As soon as everyone left, he got busy talking on the phone but his talk was not ending. Here Naina was very upset and quietly waited for him to hang up the phone. Seeing her upset, Sameer gestured her to go to the parking lot with saying that he is coming in just two minutes.

Other side in the parking Sanjay asked Abhishek again, when they were both alone. "Maine to pahle hi kaha tha yeh love marriage hai hi nahi... agar hoti to Sameer ki wife itni nervous kyo hoti... aur to aur abhi tak unka honeymoon bhi nahi hua... reason chahe kuch bhi ho."

Abhishek was irked by his comment. "Tum to Sameer ke pichhe hi pad gaye ho yaar... wo iss shaadi se khush hai to tumhe kya problem hai... aur ye batao kaun sa host apne guest ko invite kar uski burai karta hai.... agar Sameer ko pata chalega to use kitna bura lagega... Socha hai kabhi tumne."

"Theek hai mai yeh baat chhod deta hun... par ye Sameer zarur kuch chuppa raha hai." Sanjay reluctantly agreed to him. Just then Ankit and Aniruddh joined them giving their wives to personal time and asked. "Kya baat chhod rahe ho... yaar hame bhi batao."

Sanjay and Abhishek face paled and looked at each other's with a horror. But the other two insisted them so Sanjay said avoiding their question. "Mai to bas ye kah raha tha ki Sameer ki jodi Naina se jyada hamari Archana ma'am ke saath achchi lagti hai."

Abhishek's eyes widened in shock, how Sanjay could speak about Sameer like this. He glared at Sanjay but he ignored him and continued to compare Naina with Archana.

"Haan yaar Sanjay maine bhi ye notice kiya hai, Sameer ki shaadi agar Archana se hoti to dono jyada perfect couple lagte... vaise bhi college me sabhi ko to yahi lagta tha ki Sameer aur Archana ke beech zarur kuch hai... par yahan to Sameer ne kisi aur se shaadi karke iss baat ko rumour sabit kar diya..." Ankit was also enjoying the comparing Naina to Archana.

Abhishek irritated of their useless gossiping about Sameer continuously. He said frustratedly. "Bas karo tum dono kuch bhi bol rahe ho, pahle ki baat alag thi jab hame kuch nahi pata tha, ab sab jante hai ki Sameer ki marrige ho gai hai to kyo un dono ke beech Archana ko laa rahe ho yaar... aur sabse important Sameer Naina se pyaar karta hai, na ki Archana se aur abhi kuch der pahle usne apni love story batai na... to ye sab baatein band karo jin baaton ka koi matlab nahi hai...Sameer kisi bhi wakt aata hoga... chalo vahan chal kar wait karte hai." He pointed to where their wives were standing.

Naina was stunned and her eyes welled up after hearing their comment about their marriage as according to her husband's friends they were both not a perfect couple. She had just reached the parking when they four engrossed gossiping about them and she had hid herself behind the car.

A strong feeling of jealousy for Archana started rising in her and she felt someone stabbed her heart and poured extra chill water into her. She started wondering if she is perfect for Sameer. As she had heard this rumour one day during of her training time and today she heard it again but this time from the mouth of his friends. And this forced to think her that there was indeed something between them. But she immediately shrugged off this inappropriate thought as she believed in Sameer more than herself. He could never betray her, yet there was something that was bothering her and stuck in her heart.

She turned to back and saw Sameer was coming towards her and she quickly wiped her tears.

"Naina tum yahan akeli kya kar rahi ho...sab ke paas kyo nahi gai." Sameer asked concernly reaching to her.

"Wo aankh me kuch chala gaya tha to wahi nikal rahi thi.." She lied and pointed a mirror of the car.

"Batao..." He said holding her chin both his palm and looked at her eyes. "Kuch nahi dikh raha hai Naina... kya ab bhi jalan ya chubhan ho rahi hai."

"Nahi ab nahi ho rahi hai... Kachara tha jo ab nikal gaya hai... hame chalna chahiye baki sab hamara wait kar rahe honge." She removed his hands quickly and walked ahead without waiting him.

Sameer was amazed of her strange behaviour and followed her. When they both reached them, Sameer again invited them for the party.

"Sameer tumhari bahut yaad aayegi, socha nahi tha itni jaldi tum hame chhod kar chale jaoge.... Promise karo jab bhi Delhi aaoge to zarur miloge." Abhishek said emotionally and hugged him. Sameer promised him then all his friends hugged him. Diya and other ladies hugged Naina. Everyone got emotional and wished him of successful married life and bright future with lots of happiness.

"Naina aapse mil kar bahut achha laga... Aap sach me pyaari hai...Sameer ji ke to bhagya khul gaye aap jaisi wife paa kar... aap dono made for each other hai." Diya genuinely admired both Sameer and Naina.

Sameer and Naina blushed and Naina said. "Thank you... Aap sab bhi bahut achhe hai... laga hi nahi ki hum pahli baar mile hai... hope hum phir milenge."

"Zarur milenge...Naina." Ankit's wife said with smiling face.

"Achha Sameer phir Sunday ko party me milte hai." Aniruddh patted Sameer shoulder.

"Okay...I will wait you all." Sameer replied. After that everyone left the restaurant.

Once again the car back on the road Naina was quiet and looking outside of the window and there was wrinkle on her forehead. He kept his hands on her palm that she jerked out of her thought and glanced to him. She was lost in the Sanjay's comment about Archana and Sameer.

He asked quivering of his eyebrows. "Naina koi baat hai kya jo tumhe pareshan kar rahi hai... Please tell me."

"Wo thoda headache ho raha hai." She replied again turning look outside.

"Pakka na sirf yahi baat hai." He narrowed his eyes and looked at her suspiciously. As he did not convince of her reply.

"Haan Sameer aur kya baat hogi." She looked at him with a small smile.

He wondered how would he cheer up her and know what was bothering her, then he said thinking something. "Achha Naina... batao ab kahan chalana hai."

"Sameer kahi jaane ka mann nahi hai... bas ghar jaa kar rest karna hai, please." She requested with a tired face that he could not deny.

*************

Naina immediately went to near dressing mirror for removing her jewellery when they back to their room. Sameer looked at Naina amazingly and tried to ponder the reason which made her upset. He went to near her and held her both shoulder and saw their perfect reflections in the mirror.

She lifted her hands to remove the earrings, but he held her hands and asked in a husky voice. "Mai nikal dun." As he wanted to move some physical intimacy.

She nodded and next moment she was shuddered by his touch. He leaned close to her shoulder, and his hot breath fell on her neck directly. She clutched her dress tightly. He took off one earring taking much time and bent over to kiss her ears.

But his sweet moment was disturb by a knock on the door. He reluctantly left her due to continuously knocking and opened the door with annoyed face. As he had taken first step of their closeness with great hesitation. He was amazed to see the person and replied to him after listening to him. "Chalo mai aata hun."

He turned to Naina. "Naina mai neeche jaa raha hun... Keshav bulane aaya tha wo Mr. Somani ko party ke baare me kuch discuss karna hai to mai thodi der me aata hun."

She only nodded her head as she was still in his effect. She first relaxed herself then quickly changed in her night dress after removing her jewellery and she was sad again thinking about his friends opinion about them. Her mind twisted in the various question like a puzzle game. Does she really deserve Sameer? Is they both made for each other? Is Archana prettier than her and Sameer's pairing looks good with her and not with me.

Those thoughts made her feel suffocated and she went to the window. She looked at the moon with moist eyes and felt lonely. She complained to moon through eyes. Why everyone judges my looks, why everyone always compares me to others. Why people always see my negative side instead of positive side and talent. Whyy...???

And suddenly she gasped as someone touched her shoulder from behind her. As soon as she recognized this soft touch, leaned back and asked softly. "Aap kab aaye."

"Jab tum mere khayalon me khoi hui thi." He whispered and nuzzled in her hair, slipped down his hands from her shoulder, caressing her arms and rested both hands over hers on her belly. His lips traveled to her right ear and kissed her ear. Then gently trailed his lips down her neck and he buried his face crook of her neck and traced her slender neck with his nose. His every sweet assault on her soft skin left her shuddered and her heart flattered. Meanwhile his hands were playing with her palm and rubbed it sensually.

The way he was showing his desire, she trembled from the core of her heart and butterfly dancing on her stomach. She enjoyed his effect with him but suddenly her minds clouded by his friends comment whether she was deserve of his pure love and uneasiness gripped in her heart and she removed his hands harshly on her belly and pushed him back with a little force.

He was taken aback of her sudden protest and uttered in a disappointment. "Nainaa."

She turned back to him and said nervously. "Sameer aapne promise kiya tha... I am not ready... for this."

Sameer was shocked and immersed into some thoughts whether she is not comfortable with him and not feeling safe. Hasn't he been able to assure her of his love yet?. He stepped back from her with a heavy heart, mouthed. "Sorry..." And he glanced to her with disheartened look and went to the washroom for changing his dress.

Naina stood there numb for a moment looking at the washroom door and she again looked out of the window, stared the moon with blank face and her eyes shimmered with salty water of thinking her fate.

As soon as the sound of the washroom door opening reached her ears, she snapped back of her thoughts. She saw his retreating figure who moved towards the bed and lay down on the bed without glancing at her once and closed his eyes. She became gloomy by his cold behavior towards her.

After ten minutes when she did not come to bed, he turned to her and asked. "Naina kab tak khade rahna hai... thand lag jayegi, Delhi ki thand bahut jaldi pakad leti hai, beemar ho jaogi... aao so jao...I won't touch you."

His words pricked her heart and she moved to the bed with heavy heart. She looked at his back with sad face. Her heart urged to touch him, to look his handsome face, to snuggle him, and she stretched her hands towards him but lost her courage and pulled back her hand. She did it several times and each time she would withdraw her hands before touching him.

Finally she let out a long deep breath and touched his shoulder lightly tapping his shoulder. "Sameer so gaye kya.?

He did not reply, she shifted close to him and peeked his face. Then turned his face to her as he was not sleep. She immediately hold her ears when he threw a hard glare to her and apologized making pouted face. "Sorry."

Sameer kept his face strict still looking at her in irritation and asked loudly. "Kya hai...? Ab chain se sone bhi nahi dogi kya?"

Naina flinched by his sharp tone and replied with guilt and cajoled him holding his hands. "Sorry mujhe aise react nahi karna chahiye tha... wo... wo mujhe headache ho raha tha usi ke irritation ki vajah se ye sab ho gaya... Please mujhe maaf kar dijiye."

An instance he sat up on the bed to know her health was not well and his anger melted to see her pleading through her deep eyes while making cute face and he asked worridly. "Pahle kyo nahi bataya... tum late jao... mai mummy se medicine le ke aata hun."

He tried to climb down from the bed but Naina held his wrist of her tight grip. "Sameer... mujhe medicine ki nahi aapki zarurat hai... Please kahi mat jaiye mujhe chhod kar... mujhe apni bahon me chupa lijiye... sabhi se, puri duniya se... Please."

Hearing her emotional pleading he felt something wrong with her that she was hide him. He sensed her situation and his anger swaped off immediately. He placed his finger to her quivering lips and shushed her. "Shush...Naina."

And his soft voice was enough to her that she threw herself in his arms. He hid her in his embrace and he gently caressed her back. She was feeling better now and her heart calmed down.

*************

The next evening Sameer returned the home very excited. He brought a box of sweets with him and when he reached the drawing room opened the box and fed a piece of sweets to his mother.

Vishakha asked him curiously. "Kis khushi me muh meetha karaya jaa raha hai."

"Mummy mera contract final ho gai." He replied gladly.

Vishakha kissed his forehead bending his head with affection and congratulated him.

At the same time Rohan came back home from office with Vivek and greeted him with a hug. Vivek also congratulated Sameer and asked further detail. Sameer informed about the approval for the contract by the foreign client and said that its formalities will be completed on Monday.

Naina was standing a far and thanked to God for his success. She looked him with proud. As she moved to greet him, his phone buzzed and he went away to attain the call. She thought, she would congratulate him in the room.

Vishakha announced knowing her son achievement and seeing his happiness. "Aaj ka khana mai apne hotho se banaungi... wo bhi sab Sameer ki pasand ka."

Naina insisted on helping her and seeing her eagerness, Vishakha agreed. They both went to kitchen preparing special meal for dinner.

When Sameer returned after call, his eyes searched Naina and he frustrated as she had nowhere. Just then Keshav came to him give the coffee. "Sameer bhaiya... bhabhi ne aapke liye coffee bheji hai."

He muttered under his breath sipping one sip. "Keshav ke haath coffee bhejna yaad raha par ye yaad nahi raha ki mai use dekhane ke liye kitna baichain hun." He asked clenching his jaw. "Naina kahan hai?"

"Wo bhabhi to dinner ki taiyari kar rahi hai...Badi malkin ke saath." Keshav informed.

"Theek hai... tu jaa... Yahan khada kyo hai." Sameer was annoyed with Naina but poor Keshav had to face his wrath. He left the kitchen making a face. "meri kya galti hai".

Later, Sameer discussed about his contract with Vivek and Rohan and took some suggestions on preparing the contract paper. But in the midst of all this, his eyes were looking for his Naina and when he didn't see a single glimpse of her, he went to freshen up in the room with sheer disappointment.

Naina hadn't come into the room until he came out of the bathroom. Seeing this, he was more frustrated and muttered to himself. "Ye nahi ki aakar ek baar pati ka haal chal puchh le, bechara din bhar ki thakan aur tension leke iss ummeed se ghar aaya hai ki apni pyaari si wife ka chehara dekh kar sab thakan dur ho jayegi, tension gayab ho jayega.....Par nahi...Naina tum na mujhe bilkul bhi pyaar nahi karti."

"Kaun aapse pyaar nahi karta Sameer." Naina asked entering the room.

"Tum." He pouted his mouth.

"Awww... aaj kis baat ki narazgi hai." She asked cutely and sat beside him on the bed.

"Tum na bas kitchen me hi ghusi raho...mai to jaise tumhari ginti me aata hi nahi." He complained like a child.

"Haan nahi aate." She said simply.

He looked at her in shock and before he could say anything, she kept her finger on his lips.

"Aap to sabse upar aate hai... jiske liye mujhe ginti karne ki zarurat nahi hai." And she pinched his nose.

"Baatein banana koi tum se seekhe... tum to theek se gussa bhi nahi hone deti jaan." He complained.

"To janab ko mujh par gussa hona hai... lekin kyo.?" Naina asked making babyish face.

"Taki tum mujhe manao... iss tarah." He pulled her in his embrace. She hid her face in his chest.

"Bhaiya wo mujhe..." Pushing the door Deepika entered the room and immediately turned back saying. "Sorry bhaiya ... mai baad me aati hu".

Sameer muttered. "Isse bhi abhi aana tha." But received a glare from his wife, he voiced Deepika. "Ruko..." She turned back to see them and Sameer gestured her to come inside. As she had come to Sameer for some study related work.

When the door had opened with sound, Naina pushed him while parting him, blushed profusely knowing Deepika had seen them, she controlled her blushing and asked. "Deepika Aao baitho na, kuch tension me lag rahi ho, kya baat hai."

Deepika sat on the sofa with a tense face. "Bhabhi mujhe bhaiya se kuch kaam tha." And looking at Sameer she requested. "Bhaiya kuch question samajh nahi aa raha hai... Please solve kar dijiye na."

Sameer went to her and solved the question by understanding to her. In the midst of study Naina stormed out of the room. Seeing her Sameer muttered under his breath. "Tumhe bas mauka chahiye hota hai, mujhse door jaane ka... lekin kab tak, kabhi to vapas aaogi na... tab gin gin kar badla lunga."

The Dinner was very pleasant especially for Sameer who was eating his favorite food prepared by his mother's hands. He relished the meal remembering his old days when he used to eat his mother's food with his Nanaji. He being emotional and went to his room after dinner.

When Naina came back in the room after dinner, she found Sameer was waiting her. She was chatting with Deepika and Vishakha for tomorrow party prepration after dinner. And she reached to him after changing her night suit.

At first she congratulated him with love for his new contract. "Congratulation my dear husband... aaj ki success aapki kadi mehant hai... Dekhiyega aap aise hi success hote jayege aur nana ji aapki success par bahut khush honge."

"Thank you... but ye wish thoda late nahi ho gaya... mai kab se iss ka intezaar kar raha tha... par haye re meri kismat jo meri biwi ka attention aasani se paa saku... mera number to hamesha baad me hi aata hai." He said dramatically and made a sullen face.

"Nautanki hai aap pure." She laughed hysterically, and he also giggled to see the happiness in her.

"Mujhe na special wish chahiye." Sameer's sudden demand halted her steps which were going towards the bed.

"Wo kyo?." She turned to him and narrowed her eyes.

Without answering, he took slow steps towards her gazing her beautiful face intensely. He said in a husky voice. "Kyonki tumne to bataya hi nahi ki tum apne pati ki success par kitni khush ho... so ready Mrs. Maheshwari."

"A....aur... wo... special wish kya hai." She stammered.

He tapped his cheek and quivered his brow to fulfilled his demand while continuously showing his cheek.

Instead of refusing today, she lifted herself to his height and kissed on his cheek then she about hurried to run away but he caught her hand wasting a second.

"Kahan chali Mrs. Maheshwari...Abhi kota pura nahi hua hai... par us se pahle apni aankhen kholo." He ordered Naina as she closed her eyes in shyness.

She opened her deep brown eyes and found.
His intense gaze was on her, as if he wanted to fulfill some more desire.

He tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and stroked her cheek. He leaned down and planted a soft kiss on her cheek then her forehead and whispered in her ears. "Tum par ye rang bahut suit karta hai."

She shot up to him with a confused face and he answered while touching her cheek which turned crimson. "Ye laal rang jo tum par meri baaton se, mere chune se aur mere pyaar se chadhata hai."

Naina covered her face on her palm and Sameer engulfed her in his tight embrace.

Later they both lay down on the bed and he took her in his arms twirling her hair, Naina looked up him and said mischievously. "Sameer mujhe laga tha aapki kuch aur bhi wish hai."

Sameer looked down her and asked with excitement. "Bata dun to puri karogi."

"Ji nahi... Kyonki aaj ka mera kota pura ho gaya hai." She patted his cheek.

He held her hand and frowned. "To phir puchha kyo... mujhe tang karne me bada maza aata hai."

Naina blinked her eyes. "Yes... aise kud kud karte hai to bahut cute lagte hai." She pinched his nose.

"Tumhe to abhi batata hun." And the next moment he turned her that she was under him. He started leaning down on her face. But she stopped placing her hand on his chest saying. "Sameer mujhe aapse kuch puchna hai."

"No...abhi mera mood nahi hai." He replied while leaning down more.

She pleaded making a cute face. "Pleaseee."

He melted seeing her cute face, allowed her while resting his head on the headboard. "Puchho."

"Sameer... aapke college me jo Archana ma'am hai... kya wo mujhse jyada sundar hai." Her voice sounded nervous, yet her heart was thumping loudly.

He narrowed his eyes looking at her. "Ye puchna tha tumhe."

She blinked her eyes. "Huh."

As Sameer was stunned hearing her unexpected question and looked down her intently. He pondered to her question and tried to figure out where out this question popped up in her brain as he had never mentioned Archana name to her. Suddenly his mind drifted to yesterday dinner and wondered maybe someone had took her name that she was upset yesterday.

"Achha to kal isliye tumhara mood ukhada hua tha." Sameer asked amusingly and laughed internely to see her eagerness to know about Archana.

"Nahi... sach mujhe headache tha... maine to bas, mann me ek sawal aaya to puch liya... par aapne jawab nahi diya." She asked looking him with a serious face.

"Lekin mujhe na kahi se jalne ki smell aa rahi hai." He looked mischievously.

"Sameerr....No mazak... mai serious hun." She made a grumpy face.

"Achha achha batata hun... par tum aise gussa to mat karo." He pulled her chubby cheek.

Naina rolled her eyes at his action and he hold his one ear mouthed sorry.

"Naina mai kya answer dun jis question ka koi matlab hi nahi... aur answer tumhe bhi pata hai... batao hai ki nahi." He asked huskily looking deeply into her eyes.

Instead of answering she also smiled. Her smile was enough to him to see her trust on him and he kept her hand over his heart and said fondly. "Iss dhadkan me sirf tumhara naam hai aur marte dam tak tumhara hi rahega."

Then he lifted her hand to his lips and planted a soft kiss on back of her soft palm.

*************

The next morning started with some new adventure and new excitement. The whole day passed preparing about the party, it was held in a big hotel at the night. Everyone was delighted for the wedding party, except one person.

Dadi did not want to attend the party but for the sake of the society, she was ready for the party tonight. Vishakha, Vivek, Rohan and Dadi left for the venue half an hour before to see all the arrangements. Deepika was about to go with Samaina.

When the Sameer emerged out of the washroom, his breath hitched to see his gorgeous wife. She was looking angelic in the brown georgette saree. He stared her rooted his place.

Naina was unaware of his presence and immersed some thoughts which had been troubling her mind since morning. She picked up sindur box absent mindely and about to put it on her palm but it fell.

It was god plan Sameer had been watching her expression for some time. As she picked up the box he reached to her and when it fell down, he clutched it spreading his plam.

"Naina... kahan hai dhyaan?." He scolded her when he saved the box for falling.

The way the box had fallen from her hands, a horror was written on her face. Seeing that Sameer had saved the box from falling on the floor, she breathed a sigh of relief. She wondered that it was indicating that something being wrong.

But her thought broke as he turned her to look him and filled her empty hairline with sindur. Then he placed back the box on the dressing. He curled his finger under her chin and lifted her face gently to look him, but her eyelashes still lowered in shy and fear.

He uttered softly in her name looking down her. "Naina... Please meri taraf dekho."

Her eyelashes fluttered up to him and as soon as their eyes met, they both were lost in the pool of pure love. After a while he came out of her spell.

"Naina tum bahut sunder lag rahi ho." He whispered and bent down to her face and affectionately pecked her forehead. Then he murmered brushing his lips on her cheek. "Dil kah raha hai bas tumhe dekhta rahu."

Naina heart skipped by his deep throaty voice, she whooshed out the air and pushed him as she was scared to see his passion in his dark eyes.

She ordered him controlling her heart beat. "Sameer ready ho jaiye nahi to late ho jayenge... aur meri jitni tareef karna hai, vapas aake kar lijiyega."

Sameer was euphoric to hear her and thought. "lagta hai Naina ab hamare rishtey ko aage badhane ke liye ready hai... but ek baar confirm kar lena chahiye." So he asked. "Mai jo chahe wo kar sakta hun aur tum mana nahi karogi.... Promise."

"Haan Sameer... ab aap apni dress pahen lijiye." She replied looking a diamond chokar heavy necklace.

It had given by Vishakha, at first she refused to wore it but she had convinced her saying. "Agar tum ye pahnogi to mujhe lagega maine apne Sameer ke liye kuch kiya hai... aur mere mann se Sameer ke saath bachpan me galat karne ka guilt thoda kam ho jayega... jo pyaar mai Sameer ko nahi de paayi aur jo uske liye nahi kar paayi wo tumhare liye karna chahati hun... kyonki Sameer to kabhi apne liye kuch karne hi nahi deta... Shaadi ke jitne bhi expenses huye sab usne hi kiye hai... hame kuch karne hi nahi diya... Ek maa hokar apne bachche ki shaadi me kuch na kar paane ka dukh shayad tumhe abhi samajh na aaye...jab tum khud maa banogi tab ye baatein samajhogi... vaise tumhe jitni bhi sarees di hai unki shopping bhi Sameer ne apne paison se ki thi mujhe kuch dene hi nahi diya... Isliye reception ke liye tumhe wo saree dilwayi thi... aur ab ye necklace de rahi hun... Please mana mat karna."

Naina had felt bad for her as she was genuinely feeling guilty for her past mistakes and her pain was visible in her eyes. She loved her son dearly but destiny maybe always separated them. So she could not deny her genuine request. She had assured her. "Mummy mai zarur pahanugi... Isme aap ka pyaar hai use mai kaise mana kar sakti hun."

Naina wore the necklace, it's was very elegant desine.

But other side Sameer was planning mentally, how he would make the night beautiful and not make her uncomfortable. His heart was throbbing wildly to think of his not so masoom desire that were going to fulfill tonight. He seemed more delighted and immediately another round of washroom dressed up the nevy blue shirt with the same colour trouser. He carried a dark gray blazer over his shirt. He looked effortlessly dashing that any girl flat on him.

When Naina done her makeup and finished her last work putting a round small bindi on her forehead that completed her look and make her alluring. She turned to him asking. "Sameer aap ready ho...ga.. ye..."

And the very instant moment her words stuck in her mouth and she looked him in gasp. Her gaze roved him from up to down shamelessly. Her sensed not in her control and a unknown desire urged her to touch her husband, to run her fingers on his shaved face, for peppering kisses over his face and to hug him tightly.

Sameer was enjoying the dark colour paint on her soft cheek that was matching her blouse. He took slow steps towards her. And coughed to brought her out of her beautiful reveries.

"Jaan how look your extra handsome husband." He whispered on her ears.

She jolted of his magic and said walking him past. "Mai Deepika ko dekh ke aati hun." And she chided her mind to think inappropriate thought.

But her hand tugged and she turned to him. He grabbed her wrist delicately. He pulled her closer to him whispering. "Aaj nahi Naina... Pichhli baar ki galti dohrane nahi dunga." He leaned to her face and stroking his hands sensually on her face.

She shivered of his sweet torturing and stammered. "Sa...Sameer ye aap... kya... kar rahe hai... late ho raha hai."

But he continued his work going down on her neck and softly traced her neck by his long finger. She tried to wriggle out and he left her hand. And the next moment he slipped his one arm around her waist drawing her towards him. He twirled a strand of her long hair from his other hand and smiled at her frozen state. Then he about to bent down on her face but stopped, hearing a knock at the door and a frown grew across of his face for intruder who had disturbed his precious moment. He muttered. "Sabko mere romance ke time hi disturb karna hota hai."

"Bhaiya bhabhi aap dono ready ho gaye." Deepika voice boomed in the room.

Naina pulled out of his grip hardly as he did not intend to leave her. She opened the door plastering a soft smile on her face but her heart throbbed rapidly. "Deepika hum to ready hai...tum ho gayi." She looked at her and admired her as she wore a full length floral gown and looked very pretty. "Tum to bilkul princess lag rahi ho... hai na Sameer." She asked turning to Sameer.

He was combed his hair then sprayed the perfume and walked to them. He patted Deepika's cheek and admired her. "Naina humari deepu princess hi hai."

"Aap sahi kah rahe hai... Deepika to hum sab ki princess hai... tumhe kisi ki nazar na lage." Naina put a kala theeka behind of her ear.

Deepika hugged Naina tightly and at the same time Sameer whispered putting a kala theeka behind Naina's ear. "Aur meri Naina ko kisi ki nazar na lage." As he replied, receiving a perplexed look from her.
