"I saw something in her that made me never want to let her go."

Shivaay Singh Oberoi

"Sir Rana Bhawan vo envelope pahunch gya hai.", Ranvijay, one of my men told me.

"You sure?"

"Yes Sir." I smirked.

"You may go then.", I commanded and I did my signature move moving my fingers across my hairs as I heard Ranvijay's footsteps going away.

I took out my phone and called Mishra, "Han Mishra.. Are those papers ready?"

"Definitely sir.. All set!"

"Good. Toh just inform at Raigarh."

"Sure Sir.", And I hanged up the call.

I finally looked at the newspaper and smiled."We don't look that bad together Anika!", I exclaimed slyly laughing our picture together.

"Tujhe hasi aarhi hai yeh dekh kar?", I heard Om's voice behind me. I stood up from my seat, "Good morning Om!"

He came near me hastily, "Tujhe pata hai news me tere aur Anika ke baare me kya kya arrha hai? Anika ke character pe bahut sawaal uth rhe hain.. "

"I know all of that.", I went towards my mini bar that is in the pool area outside my room.

"And you're fine with that ?", Om asked following me.

"Offcourse not.", I stated pouring myself a drink.

"I will come straight to the point. What's cooking in your head?", he asked folding his hands across his chest.
"Okay so I was about to tell you guys.. I wanna marry her Om toh if her name is getting linked with me.. I really don't mind and I know uske character pe sawaal uth rahe hai because of that Rana thing.. But dont worry I will handle this soon.", I told him as I finished my drink.His eyes widened and he was about to say something but stopped. He got totally confused for awhile.

Too much information t sink in .. My poor brother!

I went back inside my room while Om followed, "Rana thing ? Really ? They are engaged Shivaay! And being engaged to someone isn't a thing. "

"And if I say their engagement is broken ?"

"What ? Yeh kab hua ?"

"Ab media har cheez pe itni jaldi nhi pahunch pata "

You have fallen in love with her, don't you?", there was a hint of excitement and tease in his voice.

I sighed, "Sorry to disappoint you Om but I think you forgot love is not Shivaay Singh Oberois thing."

"Then why you wanna marry her?"

I smirked, "People of Ameerkot desperately wants to see me get married and it's high time I get out of this Cassanova image of mine and get settled and till now, Anika seems to be the only girl who can bear Oberoi's surname and handle the responsibility of being the eldest daughter- in- law of Oberois. Naam, khoon, khaandaan sab hai uske paas. "

"Wow. I should have known this before. You only wanna marry her because of this naam, khoon and khandaan thing, right ?", Om asked sarcastically.

"We belong to a Royal Race Om. Yahan shaadi jaise cheezien bhi dimag se sochi aur samjhi jaati hain. Everything means business here, even marriage. "

"Ekbaar choti maa se ek baat puchega ?", I asked Rudra keeping all my brushes at right places.

"Maa se? Kya?", he asked still tripping that basketball.Why is he even in my studio with a basketball?

"Ki jab Shivaay paida hua tha.. Bhagwan ne uske sath koi instruction manual bhi bheja tha kya?", I asked him.

"Nhi Om please.. Mujhe maa se yeh puchke phir adha ghanta unke pravachan nhi sun ne haan..", He made a face.

"Waah beta Waah.. Abhi college se vapis aya nhi ki pareshaan hogya unse?"

"Pareshaan kahan.. In fact she's cute but is little extra.. But anyway aap bhaiya ke baare me kya keh rhe the?"

"Han so tell me iska kya matlab hua that he wanna marry Anika but doesn't love her?", I finally spilled the beans.

So he finally left his basketball and jumped towards me excitedly,"Sach me? Bhaiyya ne kaha that he Wanna marry Anika didi?"

I nodded, "Kaha toh.."

"You know what.. Mujhe toh unhe dekh ke hi bhabhi walii Feeling aarhi thi day one se.. Aapko kya lagta hai O.. Mujhe na Rudy se baba rudy ban jana chahiye.. Am so good with my intuitions.", And here he started blabbering.

"Actually na Shivaay ke sath instructions aur tere sath warning ani chahiye thi.. Ki iske andar bilkul dimag nhi hai.. So beware!"

"Pata nhi choti maa ne kya khake paida kiya tha Tumlogon ko?", I exclaimed while leaving the studio but Rudra interrupted, "So jate jate na yhi sawaal badi maa se bhi puch lena.. Ki unhone kya khake paida kiya tha apko?"

My legs stopped at the same spot. I knew it was a slip of tongue but still.."O vo galti se..", Rudra tried to say something but I interrupted him in between, "It's okay Rudra.. I have to make an important call. Baad me baat karta hun.", I told him and went outside.

"Yes Mr. Desai designs will be ready by next week. Don't worry."

"Okay cool."

"Ya bye.", I finished my call with Mr. Desai, my manager and turned around and unfortunately got hit with none other than Mrs. Janvi Singh Oberoi. My mobile phone fell down and its display completely broke.There was an apologetic look on her face and some lines of fear too which were soon replaced by a cold face.

I sighed. She was bending to pick it up but I stopped her, "Koi zarurat nhi hai. Jo cheezein Already tut chuki ho unhe phir uthalo, jodlo koi fayda nhi hota."

She felt embarrassed and was about to say something but I interrupted, "Aur apko toh vese bhi cheezein todne ki adat hai.. Phir chahe vo rishte ho ya insaan yeh mobile.. Kya farak padhta hai.. Nhi?"

"Om..", she took my name but I raised my hand gesturing her to stop, "Don't.", and I just walked away from there and was not able to see her tears after I left.

Now what would I have told Bhavya? Ki Shivaay bhaiiya pe is news ka koi asar nhi horha. O was right! Something's wrong with bhaiyaa.

Bhavya ka next call ane se phele I have to find out.

"Excuse me sir!", a servant knocked at my room.

"Han bolo..", I replied.

"Woh Shivaay sir ne sabko neeche bulaya hai.. Sath me sabke liye dinner arrange kiya hai.", he informed me.

Wow!

"Me aarha hun.. Tum chalo.", I told him. He went after nodding.

"Family dinner? Vobhi bhaiyya ne arrange kiya hai? Kuch toh badi baat hone wali haii aaj.", I talked to myself and I went downstairs before looking in the mirror.

Rudy should always look perfect!

As I came in the dining area, I realized everyone was already present. Shivaay bhaiyya were instructing something to the cook. Dad and mom were busy discussing what was their elder son up to. Dadi was sitting in her usual gay mood smiling at her Billu. Bade papa is busy on his phone while Badi maa in some thoughts. O is looking at Bhaiya with a suspicious look while prinku is calling me to sit between her and O.

I sat where I was asked to and as soon as I sat, O whispered in my ears, "Kuch toh bada dhamaka karne wala hai yeh.."

"Mujhe bhi same Feel aarhi hai O."

"So may I have all your attention please.", Bhaiyya said and everyone started doing what we were already doing, that is, staring at him.

"Uhm.. So let's get to the point. I have decided to get married.", he told.

"Haye billu sach me?", Dadi exclaimed excitedly."Hayo rabba.. Mera Shivaay shaadi karne ko readies hai?", Maa was still not believing her ears. After all so many rishtas brought by her have gone in vain."Wow Congraduations Shivaay!", Badi maa wished."So who's that lucky lady?", Bade papa asked.

"Anika. Anika Maheshwari.", Bhaiyya stated with a tinge of pride."Anika? Hayee vo toh badi hi pyaari bachchi hai..", Dadi reacted first.

"Anika? Tumhe pata toh hai na tum kya keh rhe ho shivaay?", Dad finally spoke.

"Yes dad and am damn sure about it.", Bhaiyya responded.

"Par beta .. Wo toh already engages hain na wobhi us Siddharth Vikram Rana se.. ", Maa said.

"Wo rishta ab nhi raha.. They have broken up.", Bhaiyya replied.

"Toh matlab itne dino se jo news me chal rha tha vo sach tha ..", Bade papa concluded.

"Kuch sach tha .. Kuch jhooth tha.. But this news and all is not the reason behind this. I wanna marry her that's it.", Shivaay Bhaiyya cleared.

"If he really wanna marry Anika.. I think we all should support him.", Badi maa said.

"Arrey aise kese jethani ji.. Aap toh sab jaanti hain.. Itne saal hogaye.. Aaj tak seedhe muh baat toh ki ni un Maheshwaris ne humse ", Maa poured her concern.

"But Royal meet went fine Maa! At least none of us tried to kill each other.. ", Shivaay Bhaiyya joked.

"Par tu toh use meri bahu bnane ka soch rha hai.. Mene us nazar se kabhi dekha hi nhi use", she put her point.

"But jo bhi ho.. She really inspires me as a woman.. I think she will be perfect for you bhaiyya.", Prinku said, "Congratulations."

"Thank you so much Prinku.",Bhaiyya replied with a smile.

"But what about the hundred crore merger between Ranas and Maheshwaris?", Bade papa reminded.

"He has called off not only their engagement but even that hundred crore merger.", Shivaay informed,"Isliye I was even thinking ki us merger me hum Ranas ko replace krdenge if they agree for this rishta."

"Actually investing in Raigarh is not at all a bad idea. Kafi acha rahega yeh hamare liye.", Bade papa commented.

"Toh me kal hi Raigarh ja rha hun unse baat karne.." Shivaay sat down as he informed.

"Arrey Billu aise kese? Rishta lekar ja rha hai kal.. Aur gharwalon ko ab bata rha hai? Akele thodi na jayegaa tu!", Dadi said almost horrified.

"It's okay dadi.. Ap log baad me mil lijiyega..", Shivaay bhaiyya tried to persuade her.

"No ways Shivaay.. Mujhe bhi apni bahu se milna hai.. Me toh chalungi sath me..", Maa told.

"Haa Beta.. Rishte ki baat gharwalon ke sath jaakar hi karte haii.", Dad tried to make him understand.

"Okay fine. As you guys wish. Ab dinner karle? Thanda horha hai.", He asked. Everyone nodded with a laugh and started off with their dinner.
