_____________________________
The beauty of long distance relationships is something different, something indefinable. Two people who are madly and deeply in love with each other, fall in love once again when their love is far from them. They realise that they can not love without each other. And then, when they meet, their passion is something on different level. Their love becomes strengthened.
But how strong that love will be when you fall for someone when you are away from him/her. The person whom you just met and then you had to leave him/her. Same was the case of Shivaay and Anika. Shivaay Singh Oberoi, the richest business tycoon of India got married to Anika Rathore, the daughter of his Dad's friend.
Being the busy, workaholic man, for whom his work was important after his family, he never wanted to get married. He thought, a girl will enter his life and he will have to change his priorities but then, he couldn't deny his mom and Dadi's wish to see him getting married. So he agreed to get married.
The marriage was a private affair with both the families present in the wedding along with some 0very close friends and relatives. The weirdest thing was, he had not even seen his to be wife until he tied the nuptial chain around her neck. His heart couldn't stop flying with happiness seeing his beautiful wife. She was too shy to even look at him. Her long black eyelashes were working as a curtain to not let him see her eyes.
His brothers couldn't stop themselves from teasing their big brother when they saw him smiling like an idiot right after the marriage rituals were completed. The man who was running away from the marriage, was suddenly so happy so it was a news worth announcing.
But fate had decided something else for both of them. Shivaay had to go to New york for an important work. There was some problem in their project and only Shivaay could fix it. The worst thing was, it would take at least 6 to 7 months to make everything ok. Never ever he felt so sad when he had to go out of town leaving his family but today he felt really sad when he was leaving this girl behind who happened to be his wife and.... The girl with whom he fell in love, at first sight. The innocence that was dripping from her face was enough to steal his heart.
Two weeks passed since he came to new york. He used to talk to his family daily but the one whom he wanted to see was never there. But one day he got to know from Rudra that ‘Anika bhabi’ was at her parent's house for some days as per their family tradition.
A month passed like that and Shivaay got really busy in his work. He got very less time to talk to the family or OmRu. One day, he wrapped his work earlier and went back home. He Made a video call to Rudra to talk with his brothers. As the call got answered, he came face to face with a smiling Om and an over excited Rudra. But what shocked him more was, that they both were in the kitchen making pizza at 2 am in the morning ( According to Indian timing ).
Shivaay : You both are making pizza at this time ?
Rudra : Yes because elders are not at home. Me, O and Bhabi are here, so we thought to watch a movie and we couldn’t have dinner as our dear bhabi gave leave to the servants as a bonus.
Om smacked his head and said : Shut up Rudra. Bhabi gave them holiday as a bonus But She prepared dinner for three of us. ( to Shivaay ) you know what Shivaay, he finished the whole dinner silently when me and Bhabi were enjoying the movie. And now I have to make this pizza as bhabi is talking to her friend and this Rudra is useless you know.
Shivaay : Rudra, are you ok ? What happened to your diet and all ?
Rudra : Oh actually bhabi makes such yummylicious food so I couldn't control.
Shivaay/Om : Dumbel.
Rudra : You both are bad. Bhaiya you just come back, I'll complain to Bhabi about you and O. O !!!!!
Om ( Rubbing his ear) : What? Why are you shouting ?
Rudra : Give the dough to me, I'll toss the pizza the way bhaiya does.
Rudra tried to do the trick and to catch it but it fell on his head. Rudra as always ended up being a joker instead of a hero. But Shivaay didn't give two hoots to him as he was busy in staring his wife who was laughing seeing Rudra’s state.
Her melodious voice was so enchanting that he just got lost.
Om signalled Rudra to look at shivaay who was smiling in a dreamy way. They pressed their lips together to stop their laughter and left from the kitchen silently and told Anika to make something to eat for them. Anika was still unaware of the fact that Shivaay was on the video call. She started making pizza while humming a tune. Shivaay kept staring her silently. She put the pizza in the oven and started preparing pasta for herself.
She was about to touch the hot pan with her bare hand but she heard someone shout “Carefull”. She was startled hearing a different voice, but from where ? That's when she noticed Rudra's phone on the slab and Shivaay smiling at her. She was still confused if she was dreaming. She rubbed her eyes to clear her vision and Shivaay chuckled seeing her cute antics. He was dying to talk to her and finally he got the chance.
Shivaay : Hi
Anika : hugh...
Shivaay : I think you don't even know who I am.
Anika : No...
Shivaay ( Shocked) : What !! You seriously Don’t know me ?
Anika : No... I mean yes.. I know you... h..hi
Shivaay : Thank God ! How are you..
Anika : I'm fine. And you. ( She asked politely )
Shivaay : I'm also... Ok. ( But not good without you, he thought in his mind )
Rudra/Om : We are also here bhaiya.
Shivaay ( To himself ) : What can I do then ? Ahem ( To OmRu ) ya I know.
Om : Oh. Rudra did you hear that. He know that. That's why he didn't realise that we left the kitchen half an hour ago.
Anika was just a silent spectator as she wasn't able to understand anything.
Rudra ( To Anika) : See bhabi my bhaiya has changed. He doesn't love his baby brother any more.
Om : Shut up Rudra. Everything is not about you. ( to Shivaay ) : And you, where were you lost that you didn't notice us ?
Shivaay ( To himself) : Jisme khoya hua tha, use toh pata tak nahi, aur yeh dono ko har cheez pata hai. *( In whom I was lost doesn't even know that and these too know more than needed. )*
Rudra ( Teasingly ) : Don't talk to yourself Bhaiya, Answer.
Anika was hell confused and was making weird yet cute faces in confusion and Shivaay was going aww at her every expression.
Shivaay ( In mind ) : She’s so adorable, just a baby. I just want to be with her and ki... shutup Shivaay. Control..
Anika left from there, much to Shivaay’s disappointment. So he made some excuses and cut the call. He thought, OmRu don't know anything. After this, Om and Rudra used to call him daily and they made sure that Anika was near to them so that their brother can stare her. When Anika would be there, they would silently leave them alone for some time as Shivika know nothing about each other. Shivaay and Anika started talking to each other daily. Anika felt very comfortable with Shivaay. They even exchanged their numbers and used to talk for hours, even when Shivaay would be at work.
One day, Shivaay’s phone's battery was dead and he couldn't call Anika. Anika tried a lot to contact him but his phone was switched off. Whole day she was waiting for his one call but it was useless. She didn't eat anything whole day and was really sad which was noticed by her two brothers, Om and Rudra.
At night when Shivaay came back home, he charged his phone and called Anika. His whole day was a total mess as he couldn't talk to her. He had fired half of his employees mere in one day because of his frustration. And now, Anika wasn't picking up his calls. Then he video called Om and Rudra. He got to know about Anika and that, she was sad from morning and didn't eat anything. Shivaay felt really sad for that and now Anika wasn’t talking to him which was killing him.
Rudra gave the phone to Anika. Anika took the phone but didn't talk to him. He kept apologising but she was in no mood to forgive him.
Shivaay : Ok. If you don't want to talk then....I should cut the call. ( He said over dramatically )
Anika : No!! I mean...I forgive you but don't do this again. ( She said in a commanding yet sweet tone )
Shivaay : As you wish your highness ( He said and bowed his head in respect )
Anika chuckled at his gesture and then they talked for hours together.
The time passed by but Shivaay's work increased and he told them that he will have to stay there for 4 or 5 months more. The family as well as Anika were very sad because of this news. But then Rudra made a plan to visit Shivaay along with the family as his birthday was near.
Dadi along with pinky and janvi decided that they will return after Shivaay's birthday but Anika will stay with him. She didn’t want Shivaay's work to come between Shivika, as they had an arranged marriage and they need to know each other better. They told the same to Anika.
Shivaay returned home quite late because if some work. But he found the home completely dark with no lights on. The servants were also not there. But suddenly the lights came and he saw his whole family standing in front of him as they sang Happy birthday song. The hall was decorated with white and blue balloons and golden lights. As he saw the whole family his eyes yearned to see his Angel. Then he heard a sweet sound of tinkling of Anklets from the kitchen. He turned his head towards the kitchen and his breathe hitched seeing his beautiful lady clad in a white floor lenghth anarkali coming with a cake in her hand.
She came and stood in front of him and wished him in her ever so soft and sweet voice “ Happy birthday, Shivaay” but he was too lost in his dreamland and didn't reply.
Om : Shivaay!
( no reply )
Rudra : Bhaiya !
( No reply )
Tej : Shivaay !
( no reply )
Janvi : Shivaay !
( No reply )
Pinky : Shivaay !
( no reply )
Shakti : Shivaay !
( no reply )
Everybody hit their forhead with their palms as Shivaay looked like a ‘Gone case’. At last Rudra signalled Anika to call him.
Anika : Shivaay !
Shivaay : Han *( Yes )*
And with this action of shivaay, the whole family started laughing with a teasing look on their faces that made shivaay and Anika embarassed.
Rudra : Not bad bhaiya, Continue continue but first cut the cake.
After the cake cutting the whole family had fun and retired to their rooms. It was the first time when Shivika were in the same room. Both of them changed into comfortable clothes. Shivaay, as per his workaholic nature, opened his laptop to complete his work and Anika was shocked to see him working at this hour of the night.
Anika stood infront of him, waiting for him to notice her. When he did, Anika closed his laptop and asked him to sleep as it was late.
Shivaay : Anika I have work to do, give me the laptop.
Anika : really, at this hour of the night you want to work, especially when you already came late from office. You know, pinky ma was right that you work like a machine and don't take care of yourself.
Shivaay : Oh, so mom taught you to be a typical wife Han ? ( He said while laying down and turning his head towards her )
Anika : hawww.. I'm not being typical wife but when husband is a typical workaholic machine than I have to be like that na.
Shivaay : Oh really Mrs. Oberoi ?
Anika : Yes Mr. Oberoi.
Both looked at each other and then started laughing in each other’s silly antics. Suddenly the lights were gone and Anika got scared and hugged Shivaay out of fear. Shivaay knew she was scared of darkness so he hugged her close to himself. They remained like that. When lights came then also Anika didn't leave shivaay as she was already asleep.
After two days, it was time for the family to go back to India and Shivaay was sad because ANIKA was going. Anika or any other family member has not still told him that Anika will be here, with him. Rudra pulled Anika in the car making Anika confused. But om understood his plan. Shivaay too went to the airport to bid them a good bye.
Once everyone went in the airport, Shivaay wandered why didn't Anika go with them. So he asked her about the same and got the most wanted reply from her.
Anika : I just came to drop them like you came. Pinky ma already told me to stay here as you will just stress yourself if you will stay here alone.
Shivaay ( Smiling from ear to ear ) : really!!
Anika : Yes. ( She replied casually )
Shivaay hugged her out of happiness. It was their first hug but not at all awkward. No one wanted to break the hug but they did as they just couldn't stand at the airport entrance like this.
As the days passed, Shivika became more close to each other. Shivaay’s care for Anika and Anika's care for him was worth watching. No one could see the other in stress or trouble. Shivaay changed his workaholic nature completely, so that he can spend more and more time with Anika. In this time, Anika realised that she has fallen in love with him. She had fallen for him long ago, only when they used to talk on the phone, but she just realised that these strange feelings were of LOVE. But she didn't know how to tell him. She didn't know whether he loves her or not. But Shivaay decided to tell her his feelings.
One day, he asked Anika to get ready as they will go for a dinner. When Anika was going to change her dress, Shivaay handed a packet to her and asked her to wear it
Shivaay was waiting for her, looking at his watch continuously. But then, he felt something changed in the air. He turned around to see her standing there in beautiful gown, looking ethereal as always. She never fails to make him feel that he has seen her for the first time.
She came to him and smiled but he just got lost in her.
Anika : Shivaay!! Shivaay ! Where are you lost ?
Shivaay : In you.
Anika : What ?
Shivaay ( Realising what he said) : I... I mean you..you are late, Mrs. Oberoi.
Anika : But I'm not...
Shivaay : Ok Ok let's go. Do you want to have your dinner here itself. No right. So let's go.
He opened the car door for her and confirmed if she's confortable the car door for her and confirmed if she's confortable. He drove towards a restaurant that he booked for them only.
The food was already placed on the table. It was Anika's favourite food, but the interesting part was, that Shivaay made everything himself.
Anika : Shivaay, seriously you made all this for me ?
Shivaay : Of course yes, my lady.
Anika ( Blushing) : I...I mean why you took trouble.
Shivaay : Aren't you happy with this ?
Anika : What kind of a question is this, why wouldn't I be happy ? I'm very happy.
Shivaay : That's what matters to me.
Anika's heart skipped a beat listening to him. This man just took her heart once again.
After dinner Shivaay took her for a long drive. She was very happy and was enjoying the night view. And Shivaay was enjoying seeing her happy. Her hair strands we’re flying due to the wind as the window was open and he loved the way she sometimes smiled, then extended her hand out of the window, and sometimes she was frowning because her hair were troubling her.
At last, he stopped the car at the Brooklyn bridge and asked Anika to come out. He blindfolded her and they walked a little distance and Anika kept urging him to remove the blindfold.
Anika noticed the beautiful view when he opened her blindfold. Both of them stood there enjoying the beautiful view. Then Shivaay did something unexpected.
He sat In front of Anijavon his knees, gaining the attention of Anika as well as many others who were admiring the beautiful couple.
Anika ( Surprised ) : Shiv...
Shivaay : Wait, not now. Anika, I never believed in love, leave about love at first sight. My family and business were my priorities. I used to work like a machine ( He chuckled ), as you say. But then, Dadi fixed my marriage with you.
When..When I filled your hairline, I saw you for the first time and you took my heart away. But then I had to come here for work and trust me, that was the toughest task I had ever done. I used to call OmRi daily so that I could atleast get a single glimpse of yours. Then we started talking and if U say, that I used to forget my tensions by talking to you, then I won't be lying at all. Your one smile makes my day, your one tear kills me. I can't even imagine how would I live if you are not around. I... I love you Anika, I really do. I know we are married but will you give me the right to scold you if you don't take care of yourself, will you give me the gift of being loved by you ? Will you be mine forever, Anika ?
Anika ( nodded With tears in her eyes and whispered ) : Yes!
Shivaay already saw her smiling between her tears and nodding positively but he wanted to hear her again and again.
Shivaay : I didn't hear you.
Anika ( a little loud ) : Yes !
Shivaay ( loudly ) : I didn't hear you, my lady.
Anika ( Shouting happily ) : Yes ! Yes ! I love you, Shivaay. I love you too.
Shivaay stood up and hugged her tightly. Then he picked her up from her waist and twirled her in the air as the red heart shaped ballons were left free to fly in the sky to celebrate the new beginning of Shivika’s love. Shivaay let her stand on her feet but still close to him and sealed her lips with his to make their love deal complete.
And then there were Shivika, their love and loud hootings from the people around them, about whom, Shivika had no idea as they were busy in each other.
After that, both of them again stood there, but this time holding on to each other like they were one.
A
nika : I also want to tell you something. You know Shivaay, when we got married, I didn't know you. OmRu used to praise you, they used to talk only about you like how much you love your them, how you always stand for them. I developed some strange feelings for you WHEN YOU WERE AWAY FROM ME, I started admiring your qualities when actually I had never talked to you. Then, when we started talking, I realised that not even one percent of what OmRu said was wrong. Although you always presented yourself to the world as an arrogant businessman, but only those who were close to you knew how soft hearted and a gem you are. And I was so happy to be one of those people who knew the real Shivaay, who was a sweet and caring singh Oberoi. I fell in love with you that time itself. When I came here, that love kept strengthening. I'm so happy to be yours, but I want you to mark me yours tonight.
Shivaay looked at her bewildered by her confession and her wish. He kissed her for head and hugged her.
And then, they became one in all senses.
Shivika fell for each other when they were not even near. That is the beauty of LOVE, no matter how far you are, your love will find its way to your heart.
