Turning the alarm off, she glanced her husband whose face was hidden in her neck, his arms tightly griped around her waist.

She bends down and kissing his has softly. She brought her hand up and ruffled his hair gently. 

Glancing the time, she tries to remove his arms but failed miserably. She sighs and stay lying back in bed with him snoring lightly.

Her hand in his hairs ruffling gently she wondered how days would be without him. All of sudden she felt anxious being away from him, she her heart stop beating a minute.

She couldn't imagine how will she live without himZ she never wants to think about leaving away from her. Her eyes glints with tears... she didn't realise when her tears rolls down and fell on his body.. he was wide awake without her acknowledge.

He startles as he felt a drop of tears on his skin.. he jerks himself and looks at his love whose eyes were filled with tears. His heart broke seeing her in this state.

He cups her face and starts questioning her.

Neil : hey.. love what happened? Why are you crying? Did you see a bad dream? It's okay.. nothing will happen to you.

He tried comforting her. When she didn't respond he pulls her in tight hug, pulling her close to her chest.

He rubs her back smoothing her. He whispered sweets words.

Neil : it's okay love.

He tightness his grip and stayed hugging her. Neil pulls away and looks at her face which was swelled with tears and looked down.

He cups her face and placed a soft kiss on her forehead.

Neil : it's okay. You don't have to be worried. I'm got to love.

He consoled her and pulls her back in his arms. A silence hollowed for a minute till he decided to break it.

Neil : what made you cry love? Did you see bad dream? Please tell me. You need to express what you're feeling. Please share with me.

Avni just snuggles to his chest not bothering to respond. He sighs and hugs her back, pecking her hair.

Neil deeply sighs as he felt her fallen asleep in his arms. He pecks her forehead and untangling himself gets down the bed and covering her with duvet moves to washroom.

Neil walks down the stairs and smiles as he found Manik walking out of his room.

Neil : good morning Manik.

Manik : good morning Neil. Did you sleep well?

Neil : I did. Where are you heading to?

Manik: to gym. Do you want to join me?

Neil nodded his head and taking his phone out dropped a message to Avni informing her that he was going out.

Neil shoving his phone in his pocket follows Manik. They got into conversation and went to gym.

Her eyes flicks opens and frowns feeling other side of bed empty. She sat up leaning her back against headboard and picks her phone up to call him but stops seeing the message from Neil.

She sighs and picking the phone on charging gets down the bed and walks to washroom to fresh up.

Coming out of the washroom, she moves to dressing table and starts getting ready not realising her husband presence in the room.

He stood leaning against the door and was awestruck seeing his wife beauty. He stood there admiring his wife.

As a reflex feeling strong gaze on her, she turns around and looks at him getting lost in his eyes.

He starts approaching towards her without breaking his gaze. He stood behind her and bending down little pecks side of her head.

Neil: I love you.

Muttering the words softly he went to washroom leaving her flushed.. her cheeks turning to deepest colour red.

She shook her head and finished up getting ready. Grabbing her phone once she kept his fresh and clean attire on bed walks out the room.

Hugging Neela as she spotted in her kitchen greets her.

Avni : good morning maaa..

She kissed her cheek.

Neela : good morning bacha. You woke up. Is Neil up?

Avni : yes.. he is getting ready.

Neela : that's good. It's his first day living with us after married. Please help me out preparing breakfast. I don't want to trouble Nandini in this w condition. Can you please tea or coffee for Neil?

Avni chuckles seeing her mother panicking to impressing her son-in-law.

Avni : maa. Relax. Why are you stressing? He won't divorce me if you don't feed him well.

Neela rolls her eyes and slaps Avni's shoulder glaring her for talking such rubbish words.

Neela : don't talk about divorce. How can you think like that? You just got married. Stop being silly and prepare drink. I will start making breakfastX

Avni shaking her head nods and starts making a strong tea for Neil.

They were engrossed making breakfast didn't notice when Nandini enters and smiles looking at them.

Nandini : looks like someone is forgetting me?

They both turns around and saw Nandini faking to be upset.

Neela chuckles while Avni rushed to Nandini pulling her in kitchen.

Avni: we could never forget you.

Nandini : is that so? What is being made? I want to eat something yummy yummy..

Neela smiles and pats Nandini's head.

Neela : what would you like to eat? I will make it for you.

Nandini : I am not fuss about it. I want something delicious.

Neela smiles and nodding her head gets back to cooking while Avni filling the cup tea moves out of kitchen walking up the stairs towards her room.

Pushing the door, she enters only to crashed to strong and hard chest.. the tea spills on his chest making her startled.

She panics out and starts rubbing his chest while he stood there unbothered seeing her care...

Avni : I'm so sorry... I wasn't watching.. it must be so pain.. Neil say something..

She look up and saw him smiling like a fool... she shook her head and starts buttoning his shirt buttons.

As she removes the shirt, she saw his chest reddish because of the hot tea.. tears brimmed in her eyes and before she could shed tears, he cups her face and shook his head.

Neil : why do you always get emotional for silly things? It will be okay. It's not paining. I'm okay.
You don't need to cry love. I'm okay. I will get change. You won't shed tears. I don't like seeing you in tears.

He pecks her forehead and moves to their bag taking out a shirt.

Wiping her tears she moves towards and helped him buttoning the buttons.

Avni :I'm sorry.

Neil : hey.. I said it's okay. You didn't do with any intentions hurting me. It's okay. Come let's go.

He held her hands and pecking back of her hand starts walking out of the room with her.. he even cracked few jokes trying to make her feel better.

Neil greets everyone and pecking Nandini's head sat down seeing the food laid on table.. his stomach growled making everyone chuckle as they settled down.

Avni and Neela starts serving them. Avni sat down next to Neil and serves her plate.

Ashish: Neil beta.. what are you planning next?

Neil : papa I don't return back to work till another month. I haven't thought about doing something rather than spending my times with my wife. I want to give her all my fiend that I have..

Manik: when are you going on honeymoon? Have you planned it?

Avni sat there chewing her food silently letting her husband talk.

Neil: yes .. I have. I have also booked the tickets.

She shockingly stares Neil as she didn't have any idea about him booking the tickets this soon.

Nandini: wow. Bhai. Where are you planning to go?

Neil : that's surprise between us baby Girl. I won't reveal yet.

Neela : you don't need to Neil. We are happy to see you both happy. Stay happy and blessed.

Neil smiles and glanced his wife who looked down eating her food. He knew many questions were roaming in her head.

Excusing himself Neil moves to his bed and while moving he glanced and gestures her to follow him.

Avni few minutes later, she got up moves to her room.

Avni : what happened Neil? Why did you call me?

Neil : I know how many questions is running in your head. I will answer them but not yet.. listen do you want to stay here? I have some work to finish. I can drop you home then go.

Avni : would you be able to pick me up in the evening?

Neil : I can! I will come and pick you up. Be ready in the evening.

She nodded her head and walks him out of the room. Neil bidding bye to them left.

Neela : bacha.. we need to tell you something.

Avni: what is it maa?

Neela : we will be moving back to Delhi.

Avni : this soon. Why don't you shift to Mumbai?

Ashish : princess. We can't just like that. I have my business there so do Manik. We are not going too far. We will visit you in between.

Avni : when are you leaving?!

Neela : three days later. I should have informed before. I'm sorry bacha.

Avni : it's okay maa. I understand. Is all the packing done.

Neela : yes.

Avni : I will miss you all. I don't feel letting you guys go.

Neela smiles and hugs her.

Neela : I know bacha. Either er want to leave but we can't shift back here. We will think about moving here.

Avni : really maa?

Neela : yes. We have thought about this before your marriage, it will take some time.

Avni : wow. I'm so happy maa.

Neela smiles.

Ending the call Neil waits for his wife inside the car to come. He rolls the window down as he noticed her coming towards the car.

She opens the door and sat down.

Neil : how was the rest of your day love?

Avni : good.. I spend times with maa and papa. They are returning back to Delhi.

Neil : why this early?

Avni : I know. They would think about shifting to Mumbai. I had question for you Neil.

Neil : that's nice. What is it love?

Avni : when are we going on honeymoon? I mean...

Neil : I wanted to surprise you love but it looks you don't stop asking me till I say it.

Avni grins and smiles brightly.

Avni : tell me.

Neil chuckles at her excitement.

Neil : next week, we will be leaving. I won't tell the place though. Starts packing. I have better idea. Why don't we go on shopping? Are tired?

Avni : I don't shop right now. I will take Nandini with me. I want  to go home and sleep in your arms.

Neil smiles and all of sudden he stops hearing her yelled. He looks at her worriedly.

Neil : what happened? Why did you scream? You scared me love.

Avni : Neil  look there...

Neil shook his head as he follows her gaze and found her staring at the stall of pani puri.

Neil : are you serious love? You yelled for this. You scared me to core and you cared about this.

She sheepishly smiles.

Avni : I'm sorry worrying you. I couldn't hold my happiness seeing pani and puri.. can we please have it?

Neil couldn't say no seeing her adorable face. His anger melted away and nodding his head, he parks the car side and comes out.

He follows her and watched her as she orders the man who was selling pani puri.

Avni : Bhaiya.. can I get two plates of pani puri? One sweet and sour and one spicy..

The Bahiya nodded his head and starts making it as requested upon Avni.

He handed the plate to Avni who thanks him and glanced at Neil.

Avni : would you like to have some?

Neil : two plates? Was that for you only?

He couldn't believe his wife. He hasn't seen this sight of his wife.

Avni : yes. I don't share my love with anyone. You can order yourself.

Neil shook his head and watched her eating pani puri with so much love and content. 

Avni: you're so boring... I will share with you. Just one.

She shoved it in his mouth before he could refused it.

She chuckles and ordered another plate enjoying the sweetness, sourness and spicy goodness pani puri of her life. In between she forced Neil to have it too. Neil fulfilling his wife wishes ate them quietly even though he felt his stomach burning.
