Sometimes, all you have to do is to take a leap of faith regardless of what others might say, because you just never know how that step can turn out to be. It might bring you happiness beyond words and also leave a lesson behind. Whatever you are hesitating to do, go ahead and do it! Because sometimes, it's all a leap of faith that matters!

- Thought of the day since many had requested :P

Both of them had closed their eyes being drifted away into the world of passion. Shivaay's grip on her waist tightens and she turned around to face him. Their eyes met. That unspoken moment between their mouth, was a loud moment for their eyes.

He then looked at her lips and back into her eyes. This happened a couple of times. Anika finally understood what he means and blushed looking down. She then lifts her head up and crushed her body onto his, locking their eyes. He smiled at her actions and proceeded to feast on her lips. As their lips just touched, they heard sound from the rods. They broke the liplock and looked at each other and then at the fishrod.

'Do you hear that???', Shivaay asked surprisedly.

Anika just nodded her head.

'Fish! Fish! Fish! Fish ate our bait! Quick!', he shouted in excitement and rushed towards his rod.

He took the rod out and began turning the round thingy (I seriously can't recall the name of it.. hahaha... sorry) to get the fish. As soon as the bait was out of the water, there was a huge fish hanging on it. Both of them looked at each other with a huge 'O' mouth and exclaimed in excitement. Shivaay then carefully brings it over to the land and asks Anika to take it and put it into the bucket.

'Anika, quick! Take it and put it into the bucket. Quick!', he urged her.

Anika mindlessly went there and stopped when she saw the fish wriggling.

'Anika, pick it up, fast... its heavy and my hands are aching... quick my love!', Shivaay kind of pleaded her.

Anika shook her head and made a disgusted face while Shivaay looks at her unbelivingly.

'What???', he asks.

'Michmichi machrahi hai!!! No way I'm touching this! Yuck!', she vented while wriggling her limbs.

'You've got to be kidding me! For God's sake!', Shivaay exclaimed.

'No!!! I'm serious! I mean look at this! The way the fish is... so slimy and smelly!!! Yuck!!!', she refused further.

'You know what?? That's okay! Just come and hold this rod. I'll remove the fish. Just don't describe like that anymore! I might just stop eating them because of this! For heaven's sake!', he's like... 'I can't hear anymore!'... already.

Anika moves to him and gets a good grip of the rod.

'Hold it firmly, okay!', Shivaay reminded her as she takes over the rod.

'Okay, okay!', she reassured him.

Shivaay then removed the fish successfuly from the bait hook and places it into the bucket. Anika squeals in excitement and he just plainly looks at her thinking of the drama she just did a little while ago when she was asked to handle the fish. This time, Anika insists to put the bait on the hook and Shivaay guides her. They then cast it together again and made it rest on the stand.

'Now we wait again right???', she asked with a smirk while approacing him. He smirked knowing her intention. Just when they got up, Anika's bait got a fish this time.

'Shivaay! I'll pull it out this time!', she requested and he bowed to it.

She pulled it out and another huge but smaller than the previous one got caught this time around. They just looked at each other disbelievingly at their luck today. After they put the second fish into the bucket, Anika jumps and claps her hands. Their two hours ended just like this. They had caught about 5 huge fishes and 3 small fishes. They packed everything up and leave to the beginning point where Gauri had left them.

'This is so exciting!!! Shivaay, let's go fishing some other time again!', she enthrilled.

'Hmmm... I recall someone told fishing is boring just two hours ago...', he teased her.

'Is it??? I seriously don't remember anyone saying that!', Anika replied plainly and walks ahead of him.

'Really???', he asked her.

'Yeah!'.

When they got there, Advillika were already there. Rikara were nowhere to be seen.

'Mallika! Advaay!', Anika called them out.

'Hey!!!', they greeted.

'How many fishes you guys caught?', she asked them.

'Only two', Advaay said with a faint smile.

'Well... we could have caught a lot more if someone didn't throw the rod into the river while casting it!', Mallika said out bitterly while glaring Advaay.

Shivika giggled when they heard that.

'I thought we decided not to talk about it!', Advaay rebuked.

'Yes! But you said after today. So we can still talk about it today right!', she retaliated.

Shivika were just amused to look at their argument. They try to stop the argument that was outbreaking but it was of no use as both began retaliating to each other's statement. At one point, they couldn't take their arguments anymore and Shivaay shouted out.

'Guys, stop it! You're fighting like kids!', he shouted out.

Advillika stopped arguing right away and looked at Shivaay as if he's an alien.

'Look who's talking!', they both exclaimed in unison.

Shivika looked at each other in embarassment and blushed remembering their endless fights and arguments.

'Just a minute, where are Om and Gauri?', Advaay asked.

'Oh yeah! Where are they? Did they lost the track of time or got lost?', Anika began increasing the speculations.

'They must be coming. Let's wait before jumping into any conclusion and increase the speculations!', Shivaay stressed the word conclusion and speculation.

Just then, Rikara came there all drenched, water dripping from their hair and face all smiling(blushing actually) and shivering with their tools. Everyone's jaw dropped when they saw them both in such a condition.

'Gauri, Om! Why are you both drenched like this! What happened???', Shivaay asked them shockedly.

Everyone's glance fell on them seeking for an answer. Gauri and Om looked at their puzzled face and began laughing hysterically stunning Advillika and Shivika further. They stood there dumbfounded while Rikara were having a hearty laugh together.

PRECAP : Same as the previous... sorry for repeating it.
