The night had been very peaceful snuggling in each other's arms..the rains pour heavily with thunder and lightning....the chilly weather gives all the more reasons to snuggle and sleep...Sana stirs a couple of times as the rumbling sound of lightning struck the dark skies. Sid pats her back to sleep and cocoons her into his chest....pulling up the quilt to keep her warm. In few hours, the alarm buzzes and Sid gets up as its his call time...

Sana makes him coffee and sips one too..sid is ready for the day and the skies are clear...thankfully the weather is in their favor today....the sun shines brightly washing down all the gloom....the landscape is dewy and green....the droplets shine no less than a diamond's beauty...the lilies bloom....it's an absolutely romantic morning.....sana leans on his chest with her mug of warm coffee....while sid pats her forehead lovingly...kissing on her head...her eyes automatically close and a curve forms on her lips....she looks beautiful and fresh as a daisy...morning no-make up raw look makes her more beautiful and edible....her puffed eyes and swollen lips tell a story....Sid's eyes fall on the plump of her slightly bruised lips and unknowingly his thumb caress the line of her lower lip smiling at her while making her shy and out of the blue she kisses him on his cheeks pulling him with his neck.....a long lingering wet kiss and his eyes too close as her warm lips get glued to his cheek...sighing he pulls himself off

"not now...I can't afford leaving us high n dry and I can't even be late for the shoot baby...hold on till I come back" he winks at sana
She is left sadly pouting, but she understands work comes first...soon sid leaves for his shoot bidding her good bye and asking her "so what's special when I return back to you in few hours?"

"kyu main special nahi hoon kya??" she says
"ufffff you are tooooo much BIWI?" he quips with a grin and kisses her on her forehead as he leaves the suite

He makes her heart flutter every time he calls her BIWI....that word has love and lust both...care and understanding too..and most importantly it has the reality of their relationship and value....she feels it every time he says it...she shies every time he calls her so..her heart beats faster every time he says that and she smiles every time when he addresses her her...BIWI... a 4 letter word but probably compresses every emotion he has known for her  and she obliges every single time being called so....it's weighs more than any other nick names he gives her...be it moti..gadhi...sana...baby...sweetheart...darling...BIWI word has a charm of its own.

With these thoughts sana plans to do something very special for him today...to suffice and justify her proudly claimed tile "BIWI". She calls Priya at the guest service desk and asks for her help...

"Hi maam...good morning...kaise ho aap? Sure maam..main apko 5 minute me call kar ke confirm karti hoon...waise problem nahi hona chaiye..but usually it has to be booked a day in advance..still let me figure out...kuch na kuch to ho jayega..afterall we have The Shehnaaz Kaur Gill in the house...let me arrange maam....mujhe 5-10 miutes de...I shall surely come back to you arranging something" Priya tells politely to Sana

In exactly 10 mins, Sana gets a call from Priya confirming her request and she is chirping happy "thank you...thank you....thank you Priya....aapne itne short time me arrange kar liya...seriously thank you for that...I can't be happy than this...I really wanted and mujhe idea aaya to bus aapka hi naam dimag me aaya...I knew only you could help me...to fir kitne baje ka time fix hua hai?" Sana asks her

"Maam 12 baje ka....1.5 hours session hai..it would be more than enough..baki jo bhi help chaiye hogi on the spot..i will be there with you..don't worry maam...you are our VVIP guest..we all would make sure to help you in whatever way we could...so maam, please be ready around 11:40....you shall be picked up from your suite..see you..have a great day" Priya cuts the call and Sana is dancing and popping on the couch.

Soon the butler spreads the breakfast for Sana and she enjoys Idli chutney and steaming sambhar...with chai and fresh cut fruits...she wanted to keep it light deliberately. In the mean while her mind weaves an idea..a very naughty idea

"sidharth Shukla....apne aapko bada king of romance samajhta hai..ye jaanta nahi hai main kya cheese hoon...nahi udaye na hosh...to naam badal dena Shukla....wait and watch husband...sara romance sirf tuje hi nahi aata...lagi samajh...huh" she blabbers all alone...giggling and making a list in her mind

"hello husband...kaisa ja raha hai shoot...biwi is missing you tooo muchhhh....like bhoo jada" she texts him with her pic with a sad pout

She goes to soak in the tub full of warm water to relax her sore body....sid is definitely too romantic and dominating...her bones are jammed and muscles are little sore and cramped...a warm aromatherapy bath sure shall soothe her

"dear husband....you are a lover boy...jaan le le biwi.. biwi bol ke.... ammmaaaaa....kittani dukh rahi hai body pata hai...aise cramps pad rahe hain jaise gym kiya ho" she sends another text with her pic of neck and naked shoulders covered with bath foam

"butttt I love you baby" and one more picture text with a blowing kiss and hearts

"huh....shooting me busy hoga....phone thode hi check karega sana" she keeps her phone aside and sips black coffee while she is startled and shocked listening to her phone ring...ofcourse its sidharth

"hello biwiiiiiii.....kyu cramps pad rahe?? Kya ho gaya?

"hayyyyy...kittana besharm hai...sharam nahi aa rahi puchte hue aise"

"abe to mujhe kaise pata chalega...tune pehle kabhi bola nahi"

"kutte bola nahi matlab hua nahi aisa nahi hai"

"main aau...I will give you a good massage....what say biwi?"

"aa naa....today I will show you mai level..kutta"

"uffff....toooo much...can't wait...minimoon me ye halat hai...honeymoon me kya karegi baby" he laughs and she shies

"ho gayi bakwas....kyu phone kiya tune?" she asks

"main tereko miss kar raha tha...teri pics dekh ke raha nahi gaya.......socha text se better hai call hi kar loon tujhe....i want to come back to you soon and make you more  sore...and then treat you with a good massage" he says grinning widely

Her cheeks flush listening to him.."chal main rakh rahi ab...mujhe bath lene de...jaldi finish kar shooting aur" she says in a low volume

"aww...are you blushing baby??i love seeing you shy....bb me dekh ke lagta nahi tha tu itna sharma sakti hai...u behave like a nayi dulhan waiting anxiously for her husband on their wedding night...like everytime...kiss ke naam se tere gaal laal ho jaate hain....chal shot ready hai...jaldi se ek kiss de" he demands

"sidhaaattt...nahi...mujhe bho sharam aa rahi hai yaar....tu jaaaa" she giggles

"soch le..natak mat kar jyada...jaldi de ek kiss yaar....ab phone pe kiss dene me kya sharam aa rahi hai..nahi to bb me lipstick pot ke chummiyan dena hota tha...tab nahi ati thi sharam..faltu bakwas..jaldi de" he says authoritatively

"to bb me gaal pe deti thi" she giggles

"ohhhhh to abhi phone pe kaha dene ka irada hai aapka..tu gaal samajjh ke hi dede...main chipka lunga mujhe jaha lage....ab jaldi shehnaaz...mujhe jana hai"

And she kisses on the phone "cheeks pe hi di hai aur wahi chipkana...lagi samajh" she giggles "bye baby...I miss you"

"I miss you too...see you soon sweetheart" he sighs and disconnects

Sana soaks little longer in the warm bath...the soreness subsides..she feels better and relaxed... she quickly gets ready and waits for the buggy.


Soon the buggy arrives and Sana is escorted to the hotel restaurant...Priya is already waiting for Sana there, she greets her and guides her towards the kitchen, introducing her to the chef

"chef she is Miss Shehnaaz and she wants to cook for Mr.Sidharth....they are our VVIP guests and are putting up in the presedential suite" Priya says smiling at sana

"Ohh ofcourse..ofcourse..Ms Shehnaaz..hello...I am chef Ajay..priya ne bataya apke bare me...aur humne bhi dekha hai apko bigg boss me...n to tell you, my wife and my 9 year old daughter are big fans of you...it's a pleasure to help you prepare a special meal..but do you know cooking" Chef Ajay says welcoming sana whole heartedly

He heads the Indian cuisine restaurant "BAY LEAF" at the resort and has a team of 12, 5 sous-chefs and 7 helpers...he soon stars guiding sana with the kitchen along with the introduction of this restaurant

"waise shehnaaz ji...restaurant kitchens or professional kitchens are different from our regular home kitchens...so you see these burners...they are commercial gas stoves...bhot high power hote hain ye...n minutes me khana ban jata hai...inki power is very high and hence cooking process fastens....we take care of hygiene very much...lease wear this net and tie your hair in  a bun or pony...and this way for handwash..have you decided the menu?" he asks sana

"umm..chef I know sidharth ko kya pasand hai...can you help me like inn making a menu" sana politely says..she is stunned looking at the speed some helpers are cutting the veggies and others tossing food in big woks over high flame...a subtle wow escapes her mouth looking at all this

"chef ye ittani badi knife to se kabhi nahi kata maine butt" she says genuinely making the chef Ajay laugh

"don't worry maam...I shall do all the prep work..and we shall cook on that flame...it's the low power and easy to manage for you...this is your apron pretty lady..let's make a menu...we shall keep it simple yet consider all the choices Sidharth sir likes...please bring in your suggestion"

Sana suggests and the chef is happy at her choice...its uncomplicated and yet absolutely flavorful. Chef even asks sana for a slight modification in the dish which sana could have never thought of..she is charged up to learn this new dish...In the mean while Priya helps sana to send a formal lunch invite to sid... a beautiful scroll with his name and the venue...a number is pinned to call for his buggy once he finishes shoot...the invite has no signature but the restaurant name instead....as it's a surprise from sana.

Soon he finishes the shoot and calls sana to check on her..only to learn that she is already on her way to the said restaurant and should reach soon..the buggy takes sid to the restaurant...a beautiful bright day...a hill top covered in green sets the backdrop of the restaurant...sid is escorted to the pool where the table is set...soon the manager greets him and he waits for sana to arrive...just then Chef Ajay comes in to meet sid and introduce him to the chef-de-cuisine

"sir please meet Ms Shehnaaz, chef de cuisine for today and I am chef Ajay her sous chef" and there comes sana, wearing a white kurta and jeans with apron that says "bay leaf" and a toque blanche, the typical vertical white cap that chefs wear..she was looking splendid as a professional chef. She smiles at sid "help sir...I hope you like todays menu" and laughs hi fiving chef Ajay...typical shehnaaz thing...that's her natural flair... chef gestured her to give him the blanche and apron and he would serve them soon

The table is beautifully set...they wait to be served...while sid stares sana with love....she has taken all the pain to treat him so special...he has been smiling since he saw her wearing that chef's cap. He holds her hand beneath the table...the waiters soon come with the food...and sid smiles ear-to-ear..its his favourite PAV BHAJI...butter smothered and lemon wedges and pan toasted hot pav breads....a full meal in itself but she has cooked TAWA PULAV to go with it and saffron-shrikhand ice-crème.....sid didn't understand at first and sana explains

"are ye shreekhand hi hai..maine seekha banana...fir chef ne idea diya ki usko froen yogurt ice cream jaise machine me ghumate hain...to shreekhand ice-cream ban jayega....kkha ke dekh bho tasty hai" as she feeds a spoonful..chef Ajay click their picture...a lovely meal prepared with so much of love by his love herself..what else could a man ask for at the end of a tiring shoot..he just squeezes her hand as a thank you gesture and looks at her once again..she is smiling and so is he...hearts and tummy full..while they enjoy last few spoons of their shikhand ice cream sid says murmuring slowly

"baby pet pooja to gayi...abbbb"
And sana looks at him widening her eyes gesturing him to shut up and not embarrass her but he looks and pleads squeezing is eyes slightly shrugging and holding her hand firmly "baby.....thank you bola to maine...achha sun to"

"hayyyyy sidharth chuppp kar ja please...mujhe bho sharam aa rahi hai plzz matt kar..hath chod....kya kar raha hai....ab nahi concioous ho raha tu...koi bhi aa jayega sid" sana tries to pull her hand but his hold gets tighter

"yaha koi nahi hai....aur hath table ke niche hai...jyada natak mat kar...aur jaldi se kiss de ek"

"Tu pagal hai" she grits her teeth... "sidhart..wapas jaa ke le lena kiss sari teri..yaha nahi"

"wapas jaa se sirf kiss milegi?? Baki kuch nahi?" he smiles mischeviously leaving her cheeks flushed pink "baby ek kiss please...gaal pe...jaldi" and without giving her a warning he kisses her on her cheeks...just then his phone peeps

"bhai...romance ho gaya ho to meeting kar le" the guy speaks as his call is on speaker sana listens to it and knows who has called

"syappa" she pats her forehead with her hand biting her lower lip..sid looks at her "baby jana padega mujhe...meeting ke liye bol rahe....late nahi hoga thode der ka hi kaam hai....final karna hai sab...come I will drop you to the villa"
Sid drops her and kisses her "be back soon biwi..rest and get ready...I am coming back"

"ohhh helloooo mister sidharth Shukla...you get ready okay...I am here only..huh" she hugs him and he leaves only to return to be dumbfounded

What will make him astound? And what plans has sana laid?? What's up for the reveal now? And who was on the call? Keep calm because romance is not just in the air...its on rise
