Chapter Thirty Five

Office Room, Armaan's Mansion

Mary's hilarious giggles fill the office room, making Armaan roll his eyes and scribble his signatures on some papers furiously.

After having dinner in awkward silence with Kavya, who seem so annoyed to even spare him a single glance. A confused Mary demanded explanation after Armaan came in his office room to complete some paper work.

He had shared with Mary the incident with Yuvi at Ruhi's apartment building, which made Kavya again angry on him.

Mary teases, controlling her giggles, "Oh dear, Armaan you lost a lovely long drive with your wife to a kid? I thought, I taught you better."

Armaan glares at her and shouts, "That's not funny, Mary. That kid is a devil, but Kavya calls him innocent. Can you believe it?"

Mary rolls her eyes and snatches the pen from his hand as he was resuming to sign the papers.

She crosses her arms and scolds, "Stop getting angry on that kid, you have more important work to do?"

He frowns in confusion and demands, "What work?"

Mary answers with a sweet smile, "You have to ask Kavya out for Mr. Rajput's party."

Armaan asks, raising his eyebrows, "How do you-"

He stops, realising who might have reported her and murmurs through gritted teeth, "Rihan."

Mary retorts playfully, "If you can spy on Kavya, then why can't we spy on you and report each other. I can't wait to tell Rihan, regarding Yuvi and your-"

Armaan warns, while raising to his feet, "Don't you dare."

She giggles and states, "Ok, I will think of it, BUT how will you be asking Kavya to be your date?"

He faces her and shakes his head before admitting, "I am not asking her out, I will make some excuse to Veer."

Mary's eyes widen and she demands with shock, while walking closer, "Why? What? Please ask her. Please."

Armaan sighs in defeat and explains, "I want to, but she is angry again. So, asking something of my benefit will only disappoint her."

Mary slaps her forehead and murmurs, "What do I do with this silly boy?"

She makes him sit back on his seat and explains after dragging another seat to sit besides, "Did you even understand the reason why Mr. Rajput asked you to bring Kavya?"

He shakes his head, so she explains, "Armaan, husband and wife are not separate. When husband gets an invitation, his wife is automatically invited and vice versa. It does not benefit anyone, it shows their importance in other's life."

He frowns and Mary carries on, "If you will ask Kavya, than she won't be disappointed because by taking her, you will give her the place of a wife. You will respectfully introduce her as Mrs. Armaan Raichand in front of thousands of people. This will make her happy and trust you again."

Armaan mentally processes this information and faces Mary, who nods in assurance.

He states with a nod, "I will ask her."

She smiles and requests, "And little more efforts with patience, dear. Don't be angry on a small incident, you need to be careful with her. It takes 10 times more efforts and time to heal than it took to cause the damage."

Armaan nods in understand and promises, "I will invest more efforts and keep patience."

Mary nods and stands to leave, but he stops her to instruct, "I have some work to complete and will sleep late, so please wake me when Kavya wakes up."

She frowns and he pinches the bridge of his nose before informing, "I have decided to join Kavya for breakfast and dinner on regular basis."

Mary smiles and assures, "I will wake you."

Armaan nods and she turns to leave, so he can resume his work.

Bedroom, Rihan's Penthouse

Rihan is working on his laptop by sitting on his bed, resting his back against the bedrest and legs stretched straight.

He yawns, saving the presentation he completed for the meeting, the next day and goes to shut the laptop. But a thought stops him and he smiles.

Rihan repeats Ruhi's words, which she said to the politician, "As innocent as a poisonous snake."

He chuckles, recalling her mischievous grin when she showed the pen drive with the backup.

He murmurs, "This girl gets more and more interesting with each meeting."

A sudden urge to know Ruhi develops in his senses and his fingers linger over the keyboard. He hesitates before typing her name on the search panel, but a frown appears on his forehead.

He murmurs, "What's her last name?"

Rihan huffs, though soon realises he can find her through Kavya. So, he starts searching for Kavya's social networking site account to find Ruhi somewhere.

After a search of 10 minutes, he succeeds in finding Ruhi and involuntarily sighs in relief to see her photo.

Rihan scans through her account and learns, she has hardly any friends and no one from her family. Her photos were either with Kavya and Kapoor family or with NGO kids and senior citizens.

He learns she is even an animal lover by some pictures, where Myra and she are playing with some rescued street animals.

Rihan's heart skips a beat when he sees a picture of a boy with her and murmurs, "She has a boyfriend?"

He reads the caption of the picture, which calms him down as it says 'Brother from another mother.'

Rihan groans in frustration and shuts the laptop, while complaining, "These social networking sites are so dangerous. But who asked you to stalk on Ruhi like a roadside romeo?"

He tosses the laptop aside and continues, "Armaan has turned me as him, spying and stalking to know his girl. I should man up and find a way to meet her. Yes, I will meet her and take her for a coffee to know her."

A sudden fear flashes in his eyes and he bites his nails, while murmuring, "But that girl knows to punch. She might give me a broken nose like Kavya gave Max. Maybe Armaan's stalking method is not bad, at least she won't come out of the laptop screen to punch me."

He crosses his arms and scolds himself, "Great, now I am talking to myself and even agreeing for stalking. I need to sleep, I have a 4 hours' drive for an important meeting."

Rihan lays on the bed, not allowing any other thought to bother him and closes his eyes to sleep.

Kavya's Room, Armaan's Mansion

Armaan enters the room after completing his work and tossing on his bed for an hour. He was unable to get any amount of sleep and failed to stop himself from seeing Kavya.

He closes the door of the room and starts walking towards the bed. He notices Kavya sleeping on her stomach with a duvet is covering her body and her face is reflecting exhaustion with a frown has on her forehead.

Armaan makes a note mentally, 'She prefers to sleep on her stomach.'

He hesitates before sitting beside her on the edge of the bed. He moves his hand to caresses her forehead with his thumb as he did a few days back to ease her stress.

However, this time Kavya doesn't relax under his touch and he continues to caress using his second thumb as well.

Armaan fails to relax her and panics, while murmuring, "Today, she seems more exhausted."

He recalls, Mary massaging his head sometimes when he is stressed or has headache. It has always relaxed him and decides to do the same with Kavya.

Armaan kicks off his footwear and climbs on the bed completely, sitting crisscrossed. He turns to get access to massage her head.

But stops, thinking how to begin and curses under his breath on the lack of knowledge.

Armaan murmurs, "How does Mary massage?"

He closes his eyes and recalls, Mary starts with finger combing his hairs. Then she moves her finger tips ever softly on his scalp before massaging in a circular motion.

Armaan opens his eyes and murmurs with uncertainty, "Start with finger combing, Armaan. It is not difficult, only her hairs are long, so carefully."

He moves his hand to her head, while biting his lower lip in nervousness. His fingers dive into the volume of her luscious hair and reaches the scalp. He drags them from the roots to the tips of her hair.

A sigh of relief escapes Kavya's lips, making Armaan's lips curl up into a smile.

This increases his confidence and he again starts to finger comb from her scalp, though this time his fingers halt at the knots of her hair.

Armaan tries to remove her hair from his fingers by using his other hand, only to tangle her hair further around her fingers. He shakes his hands to remove her hair, but fails to detangle his fingers.

He murmurs, "Oh God! She has so much hair, how does she manage without tangling them around her fingers?"

Armaan fails to release his fingers from her web of hair after a minute. So, he pulls his hands forcefully and it causes Kavya to hiss in pain as he even pulled her hair.

His eyes widen in horror for causing her pain and he murmurs, "Oh no! Shit!"

Armaan tries to release his fingers again, but slowly and carefully this time.

Kavya frowns in her sleep and clenches her fists, still feeling a pull on her scalp. She turns to her side and lifts her arm simultaneously.

Her fist comes in contact with Armaan's jaw with force, making him hiss in pain as she turns completely and lays on her back.

Armaan gazes a still sleeping Kavya with wide eyes and cups his jaw, while murmuring, "She punched me in her sleep!"

He continues to stare at her in shock, cupping his jaw and gently rubbing it to ease the pain.

Next Morning

Armaan's Cabin, RGC Office

Armaan dials Rihan's number, when he doesn't find him in the office. He takes a seat on his revolving director's chair and taps his fingers on the desk impatiently.

Once the call is answered, Armaan demands, "Rihan, where the hell are you?"

Rihan answers, "50 kilometers away from Mumbai, driving towards Pune city."

Armaan frowns, while asking, "Pune?"

Rihan replies, "Yes, the meeting with Verma Group of Companies. You asked me to go and give the presentation. What happened? You forgot?"

Armaan remembers the same and states, "Yes, it skipped my mind. Sorry."

Rihan asks with concern, "What happened, Armaan? Is everything alright?"

Armaan answers after a sigh, "No, I don't understand anything, how to ask Kavya for accompanying me day after tomorrow for contract signing and party. Plus, I am constantly making mistakes. She is angry again and didn't even looked at me at dinner last night and breakfast today morning."

Rihan sighs and explains, "Armaan, first stop panicking and do something, which can reduce her anger."

Armaan remembers the punch and murmurs, "She is angry on me even in her sleep."

Rihan demands, unable to hear his words, "What did you say?"

Armaan sighs before answering with sadness, "Whatever I do, makes her angry."

Rihan consoles him, "Don't be disheartened, Armaan. This is new for you, so it is taking time to understand what will make her happy and what not. Just calm down and for now, why don't you try giving flowers?"

Armaan repeats with a frown, "Flowers?"

Rihan explains, "Yes, every girl loves flowers and this is the safest gift. Take a bouquet of beautiful flowers and apologize. I am sure, it will fade away her anger and then you can ask her out."

Armaan nods to himself, loving Rihan's idea and agrees, "Ok, I will go home with bouquet and even ask Mary to cook her favourite. It should help."

Rihan responds with excitement, "That's my boy. Beautiful flowers, yummy dinner and simple apology. It will work. Good luck."

Armaan replies with a smile, "Thanks."

He disconnects the call with Rihan, then calls Mary to prepare Kavya's favourite for dinner.

Helping Hand, NGO

Kavya and Ruhi were volunteering for the lunch, when Ruhi gets a call from the chairman of the building, where she stays.

He informs through the call, there is a major electricity cut in their locality due to some damage in the wiring. It will be resolved till the next morning.

Ruhi thanks him for informing, then goes to share the same with Kavya, who states, "We need to cancel evening batches."

Ruhi nods and starts texting the girls of both evening batches to not come for training today.

Kavya even states, "And come with me to Armaan's Mansion, stay the night there."

Ruhi asks with doubt, "Your landlord/husband won't object?"

Kavya assured, "I don't think so and you cannot live in an empty apartment without electricity. I will convince him."

Ruhi agrees with a nod and they resume their work, while Kavya informs Mary, they will arrive soon.

Armaan's Cabin, RGC Office

Armaan taps his fingers on the desk as he fails to recollect, which flowers he gave to Kavya before marriage. As the bouquet was given by his father, he didn't even bother to see the flowers.

But he remembers, Kavya saying those are her favourite.

Armaan regrets to not pay attention on her likes and dislikes during that time. He has been thinking from past 2 hours and can only remember they were pink in color.

He had received message from Mary to inform Kavya is arriving early today, so he had less time to recollect the flower name and get for her.

A knock on the door breaks his chain of thoughts and he orders the person to enter. Soon his employee Mr. Subramaniyum enters with a file and walks towards the desk.

He states, while opening the file, "Sir, your signatures are needed in these documents."

Armaan nods and grabs his pen to sign on the documents.

Once done, he lifts his head to face his employee, while returning the file. But frowns and keeps the file back on the desk, making Subramaniyum nervous.

Armaan asks, "Are you married?"

Subramaniyum shakes his head and Armaan asks again, "Do you have a girlfriend?"

Subramaniyum answers shyly, "Sir, no wife, no girlfriend or even girl as a friend. Only females in my life are my mother and sister."

Armaan sighs in defeat and rubs his temples to ease the emerging headache. His employee observes his actions and gulps before walking a step closer.

Subramaniyum asks with nervousness, "Sir, is my job in danger because I am single. But I will be married within a year, my parents are finding a girl for me. Don't fire me."

Armaan assures, "Relax, I won't fire you. You are perfect at your job."

Subramaniyum sighs in relief, then his boss warns, "But if you ever disrespected your wife then I will fire you."

His scared employee nods in obedience and he returns the file. Subramaniyum turns to leave, but halts when his boss calls his name.

He turns around and Armaan asks, "Do you know any pink flower?"

Subramaniyum informs with a smile, "Yes Sir, lotus, lotus is a beautiful pink flower."

Armaan frowns with uncertainty and asks, "Are you sure?"

Subramaniyum answers with wide, assuring eyes, "Yes Sir, lotus is the national flower of India. It is an important flower."

Armaan nods in understanding, while lowering his gaze and thinks, 'If it's an important flower, then definitely it will be Kavya's favourite.'

He faces his employee and enquires, "Do you know any floral shop?"

His employee nods in response and Armaan orders, "Get a bouquet of 30, no 40 lotus flowers."

Subramaniyum's eyes widen in shock and he confirms, "Sir, 40?"

Armaan nods and orders, "And I want you to personally go and bring bouquet to my Mansion. Make sure the bouquet is beautiful and the flowers are fresh."

Subramaniyum nods in obedience and turns to rush out of the office to follow his boss's order.

While Armaan smiles to himself and murmurs, "I hope Kavya loves the bouquet and agrees to accompany me. I will introduce her as my wife, Mary is right, this will make her happy."

He smiles, assuming his plan will work and help to reduce Kavya's sadness over his mistakes.

Rihan's Car

Rihan connects his phone to Bluetooth on the way back to Mumbai, when he gets network in his mobile. He calls Armaan, but he doesn't answer, then he calls on office's numbers, only to learn Armaan has left early. He enquires for Subramaniyum, who is next in charge in his absence, but knows he left even before Armaan.

Rihan frowns at the information and calls Subramaniyum's mobile number, who answers the call within two rings and greets him, "Good evening, Rihan."

Rihan greets back, then enquires, "Subramaniyum, where are you and where is Mr. Raichand? Is everything fine at the office?"

Subramaniyum answers, "Everything is fine at the office, work going smooth. Mr. Raichand is at his Mansion and even I was at his Mansion."

Rihan enquires with a frown, "What were you doing at Ar-Mr. Raichand's Mansion?"

Subramaniyum answers, "I went to give Sir a bouquet. He asked me to personally bring the best one and give him."

Rihan smiles, knowing Armaan has taken his advice and decided to give Kavya bouquet.

He asks, "So, which flower did Armaan ask you to get?"

Subramaniyum answers, "Pink lotus."

Rihan's eyes widen and he slams the breaks to stop his car at the middle of the road, which was thankfully not much crowded. Though he received some glares from other car drivers, Rihan only stared at his front in shock not caring to apologize.

He asks with a low, uncertain voice, "Did you just say pink lotus?"

Subramaniyum replies, "Yes Rihan."

Rihan bangs his head to the steering wheel and murmurs, "Only the Arrogant can turn the safest gift into a dangerous one."

Subramaniyum continues, "Sir asked me which flower is pink. So, I said lotus is pink and he ordered to bring a bouquet of 40 pink lotus at his Mansion."

He lifts his head and shouts in frustration, "Subramaniyum, is lotus the only pink flower in this world and who the hell makes the bouquet of LOTUS?"

Subramaniyum argues, "But lotus is the national flower of India, it is an important flower."

Rihan slaps his forehead and retorts, "He wasn't going to present the bouquet to the Prime Minister of India. He was going to present it to his wife, who will be so angry now, he will lose his nationality tonight."

Subramaniyum reasons, while worrying, "But Mr. Raichand said to bring the bouquet, I was just following his orders. How can I go against of him?"

Rihan sighs in defeat and states, "Yeah, I know."

He murmurs to himself, "That man needs an encyclopedia on what to gift and what NOT to gift."

He then demands, "When did you give the bouquet?"

Subramaniyum answers, "15 minutes back."

Rihan thanked him and disconnects the call to dial Armaan's number, who doesn't answer. He curses under his breath and races to his Mansion to stop another disaster to occur.

Armaan's Mansion

Armaan descends the staircase after removing his tie, suit coat and folds his shirt's sleeves on Mary's instruction to look casual. She said, it will relax him and give Kavya a better atmosphere to interact as the suit creates a formal aura around him. So, he does as Mary said to make Kavya happy.

He finds the massive bouquet at the living room and frowns, while thinking, 'It's big as compared to the bouquet I gave in Delhi and even those flowers were a bit different.'

Though he waves his doubt away and thinks, 'It looks good, it should make Kavya happy and fade away her anger.'

Armaan hears three different voices from his left and turns to face Mary, Kavya and Ruhi, who are coming from the kitchen. They seem engrossed in their own conversation and didn't acknowledge his presence.

He clears his throat and the three women halt at their spot, shifting their gaze to face him. He smiles at Kavya, who seem to be still angry on him as she doesn't smile back.

Armaan pinches the bridge of his nose and thinks how to initiate. Mary understands his hesitation and gestures Ruhi towards the kitchen, asking her to go back with her.

But Kavya speaks first, "Let's go to my room, Ruhi."

She makes her way to the staircase, but Armaan stops her by saying with hesitation, "Kavya, I...this....actually..."

Kavya frowns at his words and finds him glancing at his right frequently, while shuttering. She looks at the direction and walks closer to have a better view.

Her hazel eyes widen as they land on the most massive and amusing bouquet she has ever seen. Many pink lotus were gathered together with assorted green leaves to create a bouquet, wrapped with white and baby pink paper. A silver ribbon kept everything tide in place as it rested on the coffee table, covering it almost completely.

Her mouth opens to speak, but no words come out and she shuts it back. She faces Armaan, who is staring at her with nervousness.

Kavya turns to face Ruhi, who is as stunned as her and when their eyes meet, it makes their eyes curl up into a grin.

Armaan smiles, seeing her happy, but it vanishes as soon as the two girls burst out laughing after slapping their hands together in amusement. He faces Kavya with confusion in his eyes and watches her leaning over Ruhi to balance herself, while laughing louder. He notices even Mary is giggling behind the girls.

Kavya asks in-between her giggles, "Which...which fool got this...this..."

Her question fades away in her laughter and Mary observes the look of sadness, washing over Armaan's face. It kills her giggles and she realises, he has got this odd bouquet for Kavya.

Mary thinks, 'Oh Armaan.'

He watches Kavya's eyes filling with tears of laughter as she fails to stop herself and sits on the floor with Ruhi, who is a similar laughing mess. The air fills with their hilarious giggles and it makes Armaan lower his gaze in embarrassment.

Armaan states, "The fool is..."

The girls face him, controlling their giggles and he completes, "ME."

Mary shakes her head, while the girls stare at Armaan with wide, shocked eyes. The amusement and laughter for the bouquet died as they stare in his saddened face.

However, Ruhi stands, pressing her lips to control her giggles as her eyes land on the bouquet again.

While Kavya continues to stare at him with regret, appearing in her eyes and she stands to her feet. She takes a step ahead, but Armaan turns to walk towards the lawn.

She stands at her spot, giving a glance to the bouquet and then towards the floor length window, where she sees Armaan walking towards the small bar at the corner.

Her gaze falls back on the bouquet, recalling how he was hesitating earlier, maybe to offer the bouquet, then his eyes becoming sad when she laughed on his choice of flowers.

A sudden suffocation hits her chest, causing her heart to ache and she feels her hidden emotions surfacing to see the love of her life disheartened.

She understands the need to keep herself away from him and his actions as she still can't trust him. The damage was too much to invite him back into her life and heart.

Yet her heart begs to go to him and console him. It was ready to shift its love for pink lilies to pink lotus, only to see him happy. It was ready to accept anything if he brings for her.

Kavya plays with her fingers, debating with herself whether to follow Armaan or not. Her mind still isn't ready to be lenient and yells to let him stay alone as he left her. But her heart reasons to console for this one time as he doesn't know what to bring for a girl, so he deserves a chance and little guidance.

She closes her eyes, trying to calm her inner turmoil and feels her feet moving to the direction of the lawn. She opens her eyes and decides to be a bit lenient for just this one time as she reasons herself, she shouldn't have made fun of him.

Ruhi frowns as Kavya makes her way towards Armaan, while Mary smiles, taking it as a positive step. She turns to go back to kitchen happily and arranges dinner.

Lawn

Armaan grabs a bottle of whiskey to pour in a glass, but stops when he finds a pack of cigarette. He recalls taking a few puffs last around two years back, but Mary caught him and scolded for spoiling his health. Mary and Rihan never allowed him to take cigarette, so he took only when he was beyond stressed over something.

Today was no different, he was stressed over making continuous mistakes and ruining his chance with Kavya.

So, tossing the bottle aside, he grabs the pack of cigarette and finds a lighter near it. He holds a cigarette in-between his lips and was about to lit it, but a familiar, sweet voice stops him.

"I am allergic to smoke."

Armaan turns around to face Kavya, who eyes the lighter and cigarette, then shakes her head, while informing, "I won't be able to stop coughing till next morning."

He shuts the lighter and pulls off the cigarette from his lips without breaking the eye-contact, making Kavya smile at him.

Inside the Mansion

Rihan comes running and searches for Armaan, only to bump into Ruhi, who herself was engrossed in her own deep thoughts.

He fails to stop his smile and greets her, "Hi."

Ruhi faces her with scrunch nose and rubbing her elbow, making him drool over her cuteness. He continues to stare at her, forgetting about Armaan and the disaster.

He thinks, 'Damn she is adorable.'

She complains, grabbing his attention, "Can't you see and walk?"

Rihan apologises, "Sorry Ruhi, I was looking for Armaan because-"

He stops, remembering the reason he raced here and was looking for Armaan. He slaps his forehead for getting distracted and makes Ruhi frown at him.

Rihan murmurs, "Damn! Armaan and the bouquet."

He turns to find Armaan, but Ruhi holds his arm to stop him and points to the bouquet still resting on the coffee table. His eyes widen in shock and he curses under his breath for being late.

Ruhi teases him, "Your boss has a unique taste in the floral section."

Ruhi faces her as she flashes a mischievous smile and he bites his lower lip to control his own smile as he had to take care of Armaan's frustration now.

He asks, "What exactly happened? If you don't mind informing me."

She informs with a nod, "Me, Kavy and Mary were talking when Armaan was standing with this unique bouquet. We saw and-"

Rihan enquires impatiently, "And?"

Ruhi rolls her eyes and states in a matter-of-fact tone, "What do you expect? Any normal human being will laugh on it and so did we."

He sighs in sadness and she continues, "That made your boss upset and went to the lawn."

Rihan thanked her and turns to rush to the lawn, but she hold his arm, surprising him. He turns to see her hand holding his and lifts his brown gaze to meet her grey orbs.

Ruhi informs, "Kavya has gone behind him and I don't actually agree, but Mary said to leave them alone."

He enquires with raised eyebrows, "Kavya went behind him? Wasn't she angry?"

She shakes her head in negative, leaving his arm and murmurs, "God knows what is running in their mind. One brings a funny bouquet and other follows behind him."

Rihan assures, "Don't worry, Armaan is too guilty to hurt Kavya and regarding the bouquet-"

They turn to look at the unique bouquet and he continues, "I am sure, Kavya must have understood Armaan has no experience and even knowledge on such stuffs. That's the reason, she is not angry and went behind him."

Rihan thinks with a smile, 'This is a positive step.'

While Ruhi thinks, 'This better not be negative.'

Lawn

Kavya and Armaan sit on individual bar stools besides each other at the bar. His gaze is lowered and fixed on a particular spot, while her gaze wonders around the lawn as silence fill the cool breeze.

After a brief moment, Kavya faces him and asks, "Who bought those flowers at Delhi?"

Armaan answers without meeting her gaze, "Dad."

She asks, "So, you don't remember those flowers?"

He closes his eyes and apologises, "I am sorry."

Kavya exhales, controlling her emotions to not react over the harsh reality. The flowers, which participated in winning her heart was a trap. The result of his father's homework to help Armaan in tricking her.

The feeling of betrayal flashes in her eyes, but she blinks it away and takes a deep breath to calm herself. The urge to console the love of her life overpowers every other emotion and she decides to ask further.

Kavya faces him to question, "I believe, that huge bunch of lotus is present here for a reason. What do you want?"

Armaan faces her and asks, "Do you remember, on the engagement night, I had lost an important project and I had to fly down to Mumbai on immediate basis?"

Kavya nods, remembering how angry and depressed, he felt to lose his dream project and how she consoled him by making him believe in his hard work.

She meets his gaze and both remember the hug they shared that night, which somehow gave him a confidence to not lose hope for the loss.

Kavya lowers her gaze and laces her fingers at her lap, while asking, "Yes, so what about that project?"

Armaan informs, "I have got it back."

Without realising, Kavya smiles, shifting her gaze to him and demands with excitement, "Really?"

He nods, observing the spark of happiness in her eyes to know about his achievement. He couldn't stop his lips from curling to a wide smile.

Armaan responds, "Yes, I have got it back and after two days, I will be signing the contract."

Kavya beams and wishes him in excitement, "Congratulations."

She moves closer in an attempt to hug him, only to stop when she suddenly realises her actions. Her smile fades and she moves back, maintaining the same distance as earlier.

Armaan tries not to react at her sudden change of behaviour as the feeling of discomfort engulfs his senses and responds, "Thank you."

Kavya lowers her gaze and he clears his throat before explaining, "So I was saying, I got the project back and after two days I will be signing the contract. There is also a party that night, my partner Mr. Veer Rajput has organised and-"

He bits his lower lip and Kavya glances at him through her lashes, waiting for him to continue.

Armaan releases his lip and informs, "He has even invited you for both contract signing and party."

Kavya faces him and he confesses truthfully, "Kavya, I know you are still angry and haven't forgiven me, for what I did and it will be again a selfish demand to ask you to accompany me for this party. So, I won't force you, I can make an excuse to Veer."

She continues to face him and asks, "Your partner Mr. Veer Rajput wants me to come?"

Armaan nods and Kavya asks, "But I asked, what do YOU want?"

He turns around along with the revolving bar stool to face her and requests, "I want you by my side, when I sign the contract of my dream project and celebrate the same as my WIFE."

Kavya glances in his eyes to find sincerity and truth in them. He isn't lying to take her as his wife, that position her heart longed to acquire.

But she remembers, the cause of her suffering is this same person, who never considered her as his wife. He only married her to keep his rights safe in RGC and she had to keep this fact hidden from her parents.

Still a part of her is pleading to agree and be happy for his achievement. It reminds her of her prayers for his success and achievements. Her promises to herself, she will stand by his side in every ups and downs of the life.

Unable to control those feelings, Kavya agrees, "I will accompany you."

Armaan's eyes widen in surprise and his lips curl up in a huge grin, making Kavya smiles as well, witnessing his joy.

He responds, "Thank you so much."
