" Aman ji.. did you find something!!? ", Anjali asked as she looked at snan sitting beside her on the bed. she's very anxious now.. she just wanted to get rid of that chudail akka Sheetal..

" Anju.. relax.. why are you getting so anxious!!? Our ' Arshi ' is enjoying their honeymoon.. so we have a lot of time to get rid of her. I have already investigated her.. ", He said as he gave her a file.

she took the file but her widened eyes looked at him, " honeymoon!!? chote and Khushi ji has gone to honeymoon!!? ", she was shocked.

" Of course.. ASR is planning this surprise for Khushi bhabhi since before that chudail come.. even though he unknowingly ignore her but as soon as he got to know that he hurted her he just picked her and bring away.. ", he winked at her as he said this.

Anjali was very happy hearing this. the anger which she has in her heart for his chote vanished and she just pray to Devi Mayiyan to bless her chote and his khushiyan..

" I'm happy that chote has taken Khushi away.. because she was feeling lonely here even though she has whole family around her. i don't know why always Khushi have to suffer this much.. maybe because we aren't worthy of having an innocent soul like her in our family. but call me selfish but I'll do anything to keep her here.. she's like an angel for me after I lost my rajkumari.. she was here beside me Even though I was doing all those stupid things to bring back that scumbag.. anyways.. now I'll make sure to fight for her happiness. ", Anjali said as she turned and read out all the investigation on sheetal. she sighed seeing the information.

Aman Side hug her, " we will fight together anju.. Arnav is very important person in my life so obviously I'll do anything for his happiness. and we know his happiness is his love. ", Anjali looked at him with complicated emotions in her eyes. she's still not get over with the hurt she has received from shyam. after his real face comes out she tried as khushi told her to move on while doing a job that will help her. she accepted as she knows if she stay at home she will just think about that scumbag's betrayal.

it was some time that she was doing a job when Aman once accidentally met her when she's with her boss for a meeting in a restaurant. Aman who always has feelings for her wanted to pursue her this time. he confessed her and she didn't replied. Aman tried various ways and then Anjali accepted his purposal as she felt let give another chance to love. at that time she doesn't have any feelings for him. but then slowly as days passed and she started to understand him more.

his forehead kiss whenever they met and bid bye and the way he gave her proper space to move on. he understands how much deeply she's hurt so he's very careful while handling everything related to her. he cracked silly jokes just to see her that heartfelt smile on her lips.

and now.. she is still facing the pain of her past but his presence gave her warmth. she has started to fall in love with him. she's trying to understand this complicated feelings of her as when she compared her feelings for Aman with shyam it was like the difference of heaven and earth. and then she realised what she felt for that scumbag wasn't true love but a gratitude for accepting her the way she is and also it was an infatuation. and she riddle with her infatuation to the extent that she never got to know the difference between in true love and infatuation.

and now she knows that she loved Aman very much. he was with her in her those days when she needed someone's shoulder to cry and ears to talk her heart out.

" how about we deal with Sheetal tomorrow!? ", Anjali asked as she cleared her throat.

" as you wish.. I'm always ready to stand by your side.. ", Aman replied as he kissed on her forehead lovingly.

AARAV POV

Today's day was very hectic for me.. even though my classmates are boring but I love the way my studies are getting excited.

After recess we have a free period so after eating my lunch I was going back to my class and in the way there was a music room. And I stopped there. I entered in the room and saw a lot of instruments. My favourite are guitar and drums. I picked up the guitar and strimed the strings. It's been long that I played guitar.

And now I'm doing my homework which I always do in my school but as I used my free period to play guitar in school.

It was such a nice day..

POV-END.

ARSHI SIDE

A shy smile slips out. He loves watching her. A voyeur looking into a secret world. He smiles warmly back as if to comfort her. It does. She begins to enjoy his gaze. Soaking it in. Feeling his eyes move over her. From her eyes to her nose, cheeks, lips. The curve of her neck. Slope of her shoulders. Her chest. The tiny bit of cleavage just peeking out from her dress. Again, she blushes. This time, so does he. Back to sipping her favourite fruit beer..

They lock eyes across the table. Everything around them fades away. They are in a universe all their own. Lost in the depths of each other's eyes. She can feel his desire, he hers. But it is not lustful. Calm, gentle, controlled. With a sense of longing to escape forever into that universe around them.

He watches her as she eats. Calmly bringing each morsel to her lips. He marvels at the pleasure she takes from each bite. Her face amazingly expressive. Every bite as if she is tasting for the first time.

She gazes at him over her glass as she sips her beer. She knows he is watching her. She slips a grape between her lips. Smiles coyly as her teeth crush the skin, exploding the juices into her mouth. She reaches for a strawberry. He deliberately snatches it just as her fingertip touches the ripened fruit. He grins as he takes a large bite. She offers her most convincing pout. He smiles affectionately and feeds her the rest. Her eyes smile back at him.

They continue on. Refilling their beer glasses and eating slowly. Just enough to keep satisfying their taste bud to fulfill what they wanted to drink from so long. They do not speak anything.
