He remembered how she was blushing at his every glance at the party, in turn he was blushing too but to him it was nothing but his anger over his employees as he answered his brothers when they asked about the same. He remembered everything that his brothers advised him to do and not to do after going inside the room but something was going inside his head, making him proud of himself. He knows that what he is planning is correct for both of them and he won't let any chance for anyone who would claim later that he has disrespected his dear wife or vice versa.

"Wait brother wait, why so hurry?" Om interrupted just a moment before Shivay opened the door.

Oh much to his annoyance Rudra was also there grinning. They reminded him of every piece of advice ignoring every glare Shivay was showering over them. Rudra crossed a limit mentioning about protection but his cute smile fixed it. But they as well knew that Shivay is enjoying their teasing as much as they are thus teasing the new husband is of great pleasure. Mentioning about pleasure, Om and Rudra teased their dear elder brother a bit more before letting him step inside.

He smiled at his brothers and hugged them tight mouthing a thank you for helping him to get his lovely bride. They patted his back mouthing an all the best and went from there. He went inside smiling widely loosing his cufflink.

With every step he remembered how he has promised to make their relation for both of them, he remembered every moments of their closeness and how the feeling was, he remembered how she has made a special place in his life, how she has become important and how much he loves her. Thinking the last sentence he blushed, yet again.

Yes he has realised, probably on the moment he decided to kiss Anika knowing she was getting married to someone else. He hid the feeling deep inside his heart. But now he want to confess, as soon as he arranges everything. But take it slow Shivay, let her fall in your love. His heart reminded him of his promises and plans.

A perfect plan to make her fall in his love and then listening to those three magical words from her mouth. This only piece of imagination is making him crazy then thinking about the entire scenario anyone would guess the feelings.

Coming out of his thoughts Shivay looked up walking straight but the sight in front of him drenched out all the colours from his face. He was blown out for a moment but then smile broke through.

"Cute she is, and I love her, so so very much" he confessed walking closer.

She was sleeping, completely changed into casual clothes. The vermilion over her head is doing something in his heart. It is for him. Thinking so he softly traced the path of the hair strand that was guarding his view tucking it behind her ear.

"I love you" softly whispering in her ear he dropped a soft kiss there admiring the glow over her face.

He sat in front looking at her sleeping intently and sighed loud. She sprung up sitting straight listening to that blow of air and feeling it over her face. He was sitting in front of her, staring her and that never ending smile over his face.

"Shivay, you... actually I was feeling uncomfortable, so... so I changed my clothes, I hope you won't mind" she blabbered looking at herself.

"You are very cute Anika" looking at her expressions nothing specific but his inner thoughts broke out.

She lowered her gaze at this small statement, now he could see the red hue growing over her cheeks that he missed at the party because of thick make up she had to put up, on his sister's demand.

"Anika" breathing out the words he pulled up her face. Her eyes colliding with him and that sharp pain inside their heart and that feeling of longing. Is it everything that happens in love. Thinking so she looked down.

He lowered his face over hers and softly placed a kiss over her forehead. Her lips smiled, her heart danced and her stomach knotted.

"Anika, everything between us is very special and I don't want to spoil it ever. You are my other half and I promise that I will try never to hurt my other half. I want us to live every moment in this relation before we take up any decision, I want us to be slow with every process. I don't know about your decisions for us but for me I want to touch you that day when I will be sure of you trusting me enough, I know you do so but I don't wanna hurry because I don't want to hurt you, ever" playing with the traces falling over her face he completed.

"Shivay, you are the best thing that has happened to me. Thank You for coming into my life" she held his face in between her palm and uttered.

Feeling her lips over his forehead they sealed their relation, forever. The night witnessed a pure bond of love, a pure bond of trust and a pure bond of companionship as the couple slept at the edges of their bed looking into each other's eyes and locking their fingers.

------------------------------

"Good Morning bhabhi" Prinku wished looking at Anika and her brother coming down.

"Good Morning Priyanka, good morning everyone" she wished smilingly walking towards the breakfast table where everyone is seated.

Shivay sat on his chair and beside him, his new bride who is not letting anyone to feel like she is new to the house. Her jokes and way of mixing up has already made everyone so close to her. He was secretly and silently looking at her thinking none is staring him and then his eyes met his brothers who were sitting just at the other side and was smiling mischievously imagining Shivay-Anika's first night. Shivay nodded a no making funny faces and their smile immediately dropped.

The day was passing smoothly but for Mr. husband it was torturous again, no one is letting his wife free. She carrying her charm is doing everything asked for but then he realised that she is particularly sharing jokes with Priyanka and talking to elders about her plannings and doing nothing.

Shivay cursed his brothers who advised him to stay at home to give company to their dear bhabhi because now no one is turning to look at this poor fellow once. Looking at no one paying attention to him he at last dialled Om's number and pulled Rudra into conference call soon.

"Shivay, I need to complete Patil's meeting soon, please you talk to Rudra because I have no time right now. Please Shivay" Om requested and listening to an ok he cut down the call.

"Bhaiya boss is around, if he sees me talking over phone then I am surely going to get fired, can we talk after I return?" Rudra's polite sound didn't do much good but uttering an okay Shivay let him cut the call as well.

Probably destiny is what it is said, he remembered how he has cut their call when he went to office before marriage and asked them to wait until he returns if it is nothing much important. He felt like left out and installed a game but playing it after two times he got bored and thus throwing the phone over the bed he leaned at the headboard closing his eyes.

"Shivay, are you fine, Shivay" getting up he heard his dear wife's worried voice.

"Yes I am, you need something Anika?" he asked sitting consciously straight.

"No, why are you sleeping at this hour Bub, are you feeling unwell?" she ruffled his hair checking if anything has happened but not finding any such clue she sat back.

"I am alright, it is just that I was feeling left out for the first time" he lowered his gaze.

"You can share it with me, you know that right" her loving caress was doing magic, it was indeed setting his mood right.

"Everytime I was me ignoring everyone but today when I saw how people behaves to other when they are busy it made me realise that how my family would have felt when I ignored their demands in past" guilt was evident in his voice.

"It is okay Bub, you have understood now so just don't do it again and never forget that I am beside you, always, in every situation" the understanding that was dripping from her voice soothed him more.

"Have I ever said that you are the best thing that has happened to me?" he asked holding her hand that was still caressing his hairs.

"No" she chuckled shifting closer.

Pulling her head over his chest he started to brush her arms. She was wearing saree, a three quarter length blouse covered her arms till elbow and specifically that collar was making her look way more beautiful. He wondered when was the time that she looked less beautiful to him, and his heart answering a never made him smile looking at her face resting over his chest.

Utter peace is what she calls it, nothing was spoken but that silence between them spoke thousand sentences of understanding.

"Missing Maa and Bapi?" he asked sensing her silence a bit awkward.

"Now they must be bidding bye to Ishu" a sigh left her.

She missed everyone but her new family is no less than the old one. Her mother-in-law, Pinky, took much care of her since the day she stepped. Priyanka, her sister-in-law, always try her best to lessen her boredom and the feeling of missing her own sister. OmRu, her brothers-in-law is like her brother and best friend and the entire family is like a gift to her. Specifically her husband who hasn't complained yet that she is not paying attention to him.

"You missed me, didn't you?" asking such her hand reached his hairs again.

Ruffling that soft black grassland she waited for the answer.

"Yes, I thought to spend the entire day with you but my family kept you busy so... and you belong to them as well so asking or complaining about it seemed so childish to me" how much more cute can he be.

"For once be childish Bub, and look how the world is such a bunch of children" she is not wrong either.

He smiled engulfing her in a tight hug as she reciprocated it more tightly. The day ended with all the smiles. OmRu's constant teasing and Anika too taking part in that made Shivay more mad. While the family was laughing loudly, Shivay smiled secretly inside his room looking at his family so happy.

"Thank you bhaiya, bhabhi is much better than you and I love her so much, love you bhabhi" Rudra said pulling his Anika bhabhi along with him inside Shivay's room.

How easily Rudra confessed that he loves his Anika bhabhi then why is it difficult for him to do so, are the royal arrangements, decorations and flowers really necessary to confess the exotic feelings that heart holds? Yes Shivay, what are you even thinking, definitely the decorations are needed or else how will she feel special. Okay listen stupid, you plan everything, you have much time. The thoughts processed inside his head and suddenly his smile broke in front of his brother and his love of life.

"Are you fine Shivay? Is it any of your special someone's thought?" bhabhi and her brother-in-law broke into laughter saying so and hi-fived each other.

"Yes, I mean definitely someone special but who she is will be secret, Rudra... you come here" looking at Shivay and Rudra going aside Anika did feel weird, but her faith over the single sentence that he doesn't love her is so strong for her to not understand that who that special person for Shivay is.
