At night

Tch  anika huffs trying  to do her dressing "but whenever she raises the cotton to touch her wound "it always fell off because of her shivering  hands. She  pulled a frustrated face and threw the  cotton in the bin accepting the defeat. Partially She about to go towards ayaan when a hand rested on her shoulder making her sit back on the stool .  She look up and found Shivaay is standing looking at her being concern. Without uttering a single word he say infront of her and take the new cotton  and wet it with the antiseptic. He hold her face and try to touch her wound but she move her neck here and there avoiding to come in his hold

Anika stop it and let me do it. He forcefully hold her face and tap on her wound..

When you couldn't do it then why didn't you call me.  He says wiping it slowly ....

I don't need your help. She says rudely having stern face.

Sometime  bending down is not bad anika.  He asked passionately  looking at her face with concern.

I've bent down a lot in my life for other people. but now I can't do it. I'm done with it.   Shivaay sighs and  caresses her  cheek  lovingly with his finger which soon got jerk by her.

Don't do it. Saying this she got up and head towards the ayaan who is sleeping on the bed. 

Let me do the dressing first. He says following her behind.

That person shouldn't heal the wound who is main reason of hurting.  She turn  towards him sharply having stern face.

Anika let's not bring this topic into this.  First let me do your bandage. He try to touch her again but she shoved his hand away.

I said I don't need your help.  So please don't do this shit  and stay away from me. She yells in  frustration. 

But I......

Can't you understand a little thing I don't want you to be near me. so why don't you just get the distance between us.  Leave me alone please.  I wanna have little breath in open.   Shivaay grit his teeth seeing her stubbornness and  hold her elbow pulling her closer ...

Shut up anika stop showing  me attitude. I'm asking you to dress your wound for your own self.  If you left it open then,, it will take time to heal it. So be a good girl and do it

So what if it will take time to heal it.  If I will be hurt then I guess you shouldn't be worried about me. After all I'm nothing for you. but an object who face your negligence everytime .  She says jerking him away while glaring him

Anika  I think you are doing to much. He retorted.

Oh really If you are not liking my attitude then why don't you stay away from me. It will be better for you" and  for me as well. At least I won't listen your useless talk.

Anika he yells at her name jerking ayaan in sleep. 

Baby she give disbelief look to Shivaay and pat Ayaan's chest ,who went in sleep again resting his hands on his stomach. 

Take care of him.  Saying this she walked out from there before he stops her or say something. Shivaay sighs in defeat and sat on the bed looking at his son who is sleeping soundly

Why your mother is so stubborn ayaan. Why she doesn't understand that I'm trying to fix things between us.  He whispered caressing his son's cheek who is in his own dreamland

In midnight

Shivaay's eyes got open with sudden bark of dog from outside. He groan and rub his neck getting pain in it because Of continues leaning on the headboard.   He look aside  and found his son is still sleeping. Suddenly he realised anika is not in the room. He look around in hope to find her but she is no where to be seen. 

Anika" he immediately got up and started looking around but when he didn't find her. he got panic and kept hand on his mouth wondering where she has gone at this time ...

Where this girl have gone.  But then his mind click maybe she didn't come back since she has gone.  Thinking this only made him panic and he immediately left the room to check it.   He descend the stairs and open his mouth to shout her name but stopped realising everyone would be sleeping and they will get panic if they got to know anika is not in his room .....

He comes  in kitchen but that's empty as well. Like this he checked whole house but she is no where to be seen. Infect she is not even in pool area.  Fear engulfed him around and he hit his head in tension

Don't do this anika please " he whispered and come out of the house  fastly. He about to go towards yard when his eyes  landed on particular figure who is laying on the bench curling like a ball

What the hell. He run towards the bench which is in middle of garden and found her laying there hugging her legs

What she is doing here in this cold night.  Anik he calls her name little shaking her which made her move in sleep and she about to fell from the bench but he catch her on meantime before she hit the floor. Simultaneously as she comes in his arms she held his shirt in her hand snd snuggle in his chest rubbing her cheek on it.  A smoothness appeared on her face with his touch.  Shivaay smiles and kiss her forehead softly making her stir in sleep. but before he get up the way she patted ayaan chest he patted her submitting her back in the sleep.   After making sure she is comfortable. he carry her in his arms and went inside  admiring her face.  He brought her in the room and kept her on the bed softly without waking her up.  He try to remove her hand from his chest but instead getting lose  it got tighten making him fell besides her. Without any option he lay down besides her and let her rule over his body as much as she can.

Don't leave me please. She mumbles keeping her head on his chest....

I won't I promise He whispered caressing her hair. Anika smiles little in sleep and curl up with him more keeping her leg on his leg. Shivaay first gaze at her and then his son " who is sleeping aside surrounding by pillows. He is just hoping that he able to fix everything as if he couldn't then loads of things gonna get ruin which he doesn't want at all . With these thoughts only he closed his eyes and went in sleep holding her tightly.

In morning

Anika pulled ayaan more nearby when she felt sun light on her face. She kiss his head and snuggle with him more holding him. After almost five minutes she open her eyes and look around lazily having cutest pout. Seeing her surrounded she realised she is not there where she was yesterday night.

How I came here. She sat up while rubbing her eyes. Meanwhile Shivaay came out from the Bathroom and wish her good morning which she didn't answer and turn her face away.

How was your sleep. Did you sleep well. Anika closed ... her eyes tightly and then turn her face towards him

How did I come here. Finally she asked this question not able to control herself

Err you came itself inside. Actually last night me and ayaan were sleeping. so you came inside " pushed me and slept there. That's all happened

I won't do that. I would never. You are lying I'm sure. She  frowns going in deep though.

But you did. That's the truth. He smiles seeing her cute face.

Stop lying I know I didn't do any sort of thing like this. Shivaay heave out the breath and sat near her making her move back ...

Then where you had been tell me. He says raising his brow .....

I I was in the garden and and ... she stammers crawling back looking here and there

And you slept there Aren't you. He asked gritting his teeth. 

Yes maybe. What's your problem with that. She says sharply looking at him

Yes I've problem anika. do you know how much dangerous it was. First of all it was so cold out there. second there are dozens of servants are roaming around in the house and anyone could harm you finding you alone there. How can you be stupid anika. Didn't you think about it before doing it. He little yell at her holding her hand

What about last one year  which I spent sleeping outside. That time you didn't think that how I would be managing. Her this question made him speechless. He try to say something but seeing hurtness in her eyes made his tongue tied inside.

Stop trying to show me your fake sympathy which you doesn't have in your heart for me. Better let me be in the reality so that It won't hurt when I've to go. Hmm. She look at him with moist eyes and got up from the bed slipping into her shoes

I know what are you trying to do. But I'm sorry I don't wanna be that which you want. Stop trying to win me for keeping your own comfort. I know that you don't have feelings for me in your heart and all you are doing it just because you know that except me no one can handle you. and if I left then ,, you won't able to fix your mess. So better Stop right here. Don't make things harder for me. Saying this she went in the bath closing the door with thud leaving him in deep thoughts.

Why she think that I'm using her for my own comfort

Because you are ....

His heart spoke making him realised that might he is doing for himself  being selfish just because he knows no one can handle him the way she does ....

After sometime

Shivaay comes down stairs and  rolls his eyes seeing  almost whole living room is filled with people.  If one side  servants and event organisers are decorating house then another side  his family ladies are busy choosing outfit for themselves  which are scattered everywhere.

I'm thinking to go for green  and pink. What's say om. Gouri says showing him  a dress

He shakes his head and went towards her. While passing by a servant who had juices in the tray. He grab one glass and padded towards her . Anime gasp   with the sudden thud of glass on the table. She looks up and found him standing infront of her having frown on his forehead

Don't listen to her and do whatever I said.

At night

Shivaay entered in the room and found her siting on the bed playing with the ayaan who is giggling standing in her lap ...

What is this anika why you are not ready yet. 

Because I don't want to.  Is there any problem. she answered him Rudely keeping ayaan on the bed who got busy playing with his toys

Anika stop your tantrums and got up. Guest have already arrived.

And if I didn't then she tilt her brows ...

Yes I will.  Now be a good girl and go and   Get change.  Here is the dress wear it.  I've specifically chose for you. Wear it and come out He says grabbing it from there sofa.

Fine. She puffs her face and left towards dressing room to get change. Shivaay shakes his head and Went out itself  carrying ayaan with him who is wearing matching outfit   like his dad. 

In garden

Shivaay is talking with the guest but his all attention  towards the entrance door. He is just not able to wait to see her in that dress which he chose for her.

Oh she is here. Hearing shrill voice of  bhavya he turned  having bright smile on his face but soon it got faded when he saw her coming in any other dress not in that  one  which he chose. Anger filled in his veins seeing her stubbornness how dare she not wear that which he got for her.  He grit his teeth and about March towards her " but stopped when he saw her mother who came and took her along with her.

I won't leave you anika. How dare you to do like this.  He hissed in anger and went behind her ...

This is anika my daughter about whom  I was talking  mrs khurana.   Her mother  smiles making her meet with her friend. 

Oh she is anika. She is really Pretty. She says caressing her cheek.

Mom woh ... Annie.  That guy who came towards her mother's friend he got surprised finding her there. 

Vikram ?? Anika got surprised seeing him there

Oh my god Annie before she  says something he engulfed her in the tight hug making shivaay stopped on his track. His fist curled up seeing his wife in someone else's arm.

I didn't expect you here Annie. Yaar do you know how much I missed you.  You just got disappeared after last exam.  He put more fuel in the fire when he patched a Kiss on her cheek breaking the hug ...

Actually  I'd got so busy in life that I  couldn't contact anyone on top of that all numbers I'd lost because of sim changing.  She smiles

Vikram do you know her. His mother frown seeing him behaving like this....

Yes of course mom. She is same  girl  about whom I'd told you.  Remember.  He eyes her making her realised.

Oh is she. God your choice is best Vikram.  Must say you chose diamond. She says caressing  Anika's cheek who is confused with all this as well as shivaay " who is little bit understanding what's happening but he don't want to be true

What are you talking about  mrs khurana. ???? Anika's mother asked in confusion.

Pinky held their hands and forcefully dragged them with her before mrs khurana completes her words. Shivaay glare Vikram and went behind Anika feeling hell angry and burning sensation on the same time in his heart. 

.......
Anika is standing near pinky admiring the couple when   Vikram comes near her having glint on his face.

Hey Annie....

Hi Vikram she smiles making shivaay widen his eyes seeing her smiling with him but soon his anger reached on peak when he whispered in her ear something and she burst into laughter keeping hand on her mouth.  It's not that she is not looking pretty while laughing . but seeing  her happy because of this stupid guy made his heart burn. She never smiled infront of him like this. Either she cry or show him attitude but never ever he saw her laughing or giggling

Anika bhabi  come and do your mahndi. Look all girls have been sat Gouri says pulling her towards girls side.  Finding the opportunity Shivaay went behind her and take seat near her on the  stool clearing his throat. Seeing him there all girls got confused as well as anika but then they shrug their  shoulders getting busy back into to their work.  

Mam which design should I put. The lady asked.

Erm please don't put anything I'm  happy without it. She spoke gaining shivaay's  attention whose eyes are tucked on that stupid Vikram who's continuously looking at anika having smiles.

But mam everyone are doing it.  She try to convince her. But anika  shook her head and speak

But I don't want it. ....

Whay do you mean you don't want it.  Madam put the mehndi i will see how she doesn't want it. Shivaay interrupted in the conversion. 

I said I don't want it.  Can't  you Understand.  Stop fuckin pressurising me for god sake.  She yells at them and stormed  away  there in anger.  Shivaay grit his teeth and went behind her angry like bull. 

In kitchen Anika comes there and  about to head towards the fridge but suddenly gasp left her mouth when someone pulled her and throw her towards the wall leaning on her fully

How dare you to behave like this to meeeee. He screams making her shudder in fear.
