Preeta opened the door of flat Karan bought for them.

Preeta: Aaram se..

Karan(smilingly):Thik hu yrr babydoll main ab..

She was about to go inside when Karan pulled her back.

Preeta(confused): Kya hua..

Sameer:Bhabhi grahpravesh toh kro pehle..

Shrishti did their aarti. Preeta smiled looking at Karan and Shrishmeer. She entered performing all rituals. Her footprints inside their home were part of a memory they will cherish forever.

Preeta(concerned): Jao rest krlo..Discharge mila h..Thik nhi hue ho..

Karan: Jaisa meri biwi kahe..

Sameer: Chlo shrishti main tumhe drop krdeta hu..

Preeta:Tum dono yahi ruk jao..

Karan(in her ears): Kabab mein haddi banege yaha...Woh hmare..Hum unke..Jaane do na..Pyaar krte h ek dusre se..Thoda ghumne phirne do..

Preeta glared him.

Preeta(murmuring): Tumhari dal yaha nhi galne wali..Chup chap jaake rest kro..Romance ki gaadi ko break lagao aur tum dono..

She saw that Shrishmeer were not there.

Preeta(shocked): Yeh kya h..

Karan(winking): Dumbo samajhdar h woh dono..Tumhari tarah nhi..

Preeta(angry): Oh really..

Karan smilingly nodded. Preeta hit his head.

Karan(in pain): Ah..

Preeta(concerned): Kya hua..Lagi.. Bandage k upar lag gya haath kya..Kyu krte ho tum mujhe irritate..Jyada dard ho rha h..

Karan(pulling her closer):Kahin nhi lagi..Par acha lagta h jab tum fikr krti ho..

Preeta: Main nhi toh kon kruga..After all I am..

Preeran(in unison): The Preeta Karan Luthra..

He joined her forehead with his. She smiled. Karan went to room. Preeta came to room to look after him and saw the frame that was empty before.

She sat besides him and smiled.

Preeta: Thank you..

Karan smiled and kissed her forehead. She gave him his medicine and was about to leave when he held her hand and pulled her back.

Karan: I love you..

Preeta: I love you more..

Preeta smiled. He slowly started leaning towards her. She closed her eyes and within some moments his lips were on hers. Both shared a deep and passionate kiss.

He hugged her. She kept her head on his chest.

Dekha hazaron dafa aapko
Phir bekarari kaisi h...

He removed her ear rings and kissed her earlobes.

Sambhale sambhalta nhi h yeh dil
Kuch aap mein baat aisi h...

Preeta looked at him and both leaned towards each other and kissed each other passionately.

Karan pulled her more closer through waist while she was caressing his hair.

Le kar izazat ab aap se
Saansen yeh aati.. Jaati h..

Both broke breathing heavily. Karan traced her neck placing soft kisses there. She clutched his hair.

Karan made her lie down and came on top. He unpinned her dupatta.

Dhunde se milte nhi h hum
Bas aap hi aap baaki h...

He slid down her sleeve and placed open mouth kisses on her shoulder, collarbone and neck.

Pal bhar na duri sahe aap se
Betabiyaan yeh kuch aur h...

Preeta twirled and came on top. She opened his buttons and kissed his chest and neck. Karan's hands went on her back and he opened her dori. She saw him shockingly while he smirked.

Hum dur hokar bhi paas h
Nazdeekiyan yeh kuch aur h...

He came on top and placed soft feather like kisses on her waist while she closed her eyes and clutched the bedsheet tightly.

Dekha hazaron dafa aapko
Phir bekarari kaisi h..

He held her hand and loosened her grip. He entangled his fingers with hers and saw her face.

Sambhale sambhalta nhi h dil..
Kuch pyaar mein baat aisi h...

He kissed her eyes. She opened her eyes slowly  and saw him. Both looked at each other intensely.

Karan pulled her for another wild and passionate kiss. She too responded.

Karan covered them with duvet.

▪️▪️▪️▪️

After some months,

Preeta removed the curtains of their room. Karan covered himself with duvet annoyed.

Karan(irritating): Babydoll..Please na band krdo..

Preeta snatched blanket from him. He made a cry baby face.

Preeta(kissing his cheek): Good morning bajarbattu..Utho ab..

Karan pulled her over him.

Preeta(hitting him): Tumhara roz ka h na..

Karan(tucking her hair strand): Meri subah toh hone do..

He brushed his nose with hers and softly pecked her lips. She smiled but then looked at the clock.

Preeta(glaring him):Tum uth rhe ho kii..

Karan(widening his eyes): Noo..

Preeta started tickling him.

Karan(laughing):Babydoll..nhi..tumhe pata h main bahut ticklish hu..Stopp...

Preeta:Toh chup chap uth jaaya kro..

Karan nodded. Preeta got down and went to kitchen. Karan went to get ready.

Preeta: Karan..Kaha rh gaye..

Karan came out and picked up his cricket kit.

Karan: Chlo tumhe drop krdeta hu..

Preeta:Oh hello..tumhara breakfast..

He made a roll and took it.

Karan: Chalo..Meri wajah se tumhe thodi late drop kruga..

He went out. Preeta slapped her forehead smilingly and went behind him locking the door.

Karan dropped her to hospital.

Preeta: Love you..Bye..

Karan: Dr. Preeta Karan Luthra..I love you more..

She kissed his cheek and left. Karan drove to academy.

Preeta was treating patients while Karan was working out. Both were happily doing their work.

Karan came out of his academy done with his day's routine and practice about to call Preeta.

Karan(murmuring to himself): Babydoll ko call krta hu..Free hogyi hogi jahan tk h..

"Oh my god..The Karan Luthra"

Karan looked up and his fans surrounded him asking for selfies, autographs.

Karan(smilingly): Guys calm down..

Garima: I am your biggest fan..

He was giving autographs and selfies while Preeta was seeing him from a distance. She thought to surprise him as she was free early.

Preeta(making faces): Kab free hoga..

Karan saw Preeta waiting for him. He smiled.

Karan: Guys done..

Fans: Selfie..

Preeta: Huh..Janaab ko toh fursat hi nhi h..Biwi intezaar kr rhi h nhi selfies khichwani h..Autographs dene h..Yeh normal kyu nhi h..

Karan(tapping her shoulder): Main tumhe abnormal lagta hu mtlb..

Preeta(smilingly): Oh adjust..

Preeta(angry): Adjust my foot..Toh ab apne fans ke saath raho..Ghar toh aa bhi mt jaana..

Karan: Woh ghar mera bhi h..main wahi rhuga..

Preeta: Waah..karele ki muh se nikli chashni..Main nhi maan ne wali iss baar..

She started walking away. Karan slapped his forehead.

Karan:Kya karun main iss ladki ka..Oye bajarbatti..I mean babydoll ruko..

Preeta was walking while Karan was following her.

Dil ka dimaag se..
Jhagda lagaya kisne..
Piche ke darwaze se..
Dabe pau aaya jse..

Karan held her hand. She glared him and jerked it angrily.

Karan took some flowers from roadside shop and ran behind her.

Karan(giving her roses): Sorry..

Preeta made a cute pout and took the flowers.

Preeta(smilingly): How cute..

Karan:Maan gyi?

Preeta smiled and handed it back to him.

Preeta(glaring): Apne fans ko manao..Biwi ka kya h..

Karan:Really?

Preeta: Ha..

Karan(angry): Jyada nhi ho rha..

Preeta(moving forward):Ha bahut jyada ho rha h tumhara Karele..

Karan made a cry baby face.

Thoda sa kamina..
Thoda bechara h..

Preeta sat on a bench. He brought her an icecream and offered it to her.

Preeta(glaring him): Really..

She took the icecream. He gave a sigh of relief. She went taking the icecream.

Karan: Aree..

Ishq bhoot sahi..
Par yeh bhoot bada hi pyaara hai..

Preeta smiled eating the icecream. Karan stood on bonnet of car.

Karan(shouting): Suicide gao..Sorry mumbai walo suicide..

Preeta turned towards him making faces.

Karan(shouting):Suicide..

Preeta was trying hard to control her laughter seeing his drama.

Aman: The Karan Luthra..Sir aap kyu suicide kr rhe h..

Karan(shedding fake tears): Ab tujhe kya batau..Meri dukh bhari dastaan..

Preeta(smiling): Oho dukh bhari dastaan...Aur ek baat batao itne se bonnet se girke toh ek haddi bhi nhi tutegi tumhari..Chale ho suicide krne..

Karan: Tum chup kro..

Karan(making a cry baby face): Yeh jo ladki h na..

He kept his hand around Aman's shoulder and pointed towards Preeta.

Karan(cry baby face): Main iss ladki se prem krta hu..Par..yeh h kii..

Aman: Vse inse toh koi bhi pyaar krega..

Preeta widened her eyes. Karan hit Aman's head.

Karan: Oye..Main tujhe apni story bata rha hu...tu usme apni hi script daal rha h..

Aman:Kya sir..Girlfriend ko patane ke liye itni nautanki..Chodo ek jayegi..Dusri aayegi...

Karan turned to look at Preeta. She gave him a deadly smile and showed him a slap.

Offo ise daant ke bhagau..
Offo ya ya seene se lagau..

Karan: Girlfriend nhi biwi h meri..

Aman:Kya sir..Miyan biwi mein bhi aise drama..Kya mam aap bhi..

Preeta smiled at Karan with a deadly glare. Karan got down and moved to her side.

Preeta: Kya tha yeh..

Karan: Mtlb mazak tha..

Preeta(kissing his cheek): Toh mere piche toh main tumhe zindagi bhar bhagaugi..

Preeta kissed his other cheek as well. He smiled and held her through waist.

Preeta: Ek baat batao sab hume bf gf kyu smjhte h..

Preeta: Acha thik h..Main responsible hojaugi..

Preeta(in his ears): Aur tum bhi responsible hajao Karele..Vrna koi hmare baby ke mom dad ko bf gf kahega toh ksa lagega..

Karan: Ha toh kya farq pdta h..

Karan looked at Preeta.

Karan(happily): Really, babydoll?

He gently placed her down.
