___________________________
The small house surrounded by beautiful flower gardens filled with White and Red roses and white and Pink amaryllises looked like heaven on earth, thought Om and Rudra.

They were here, in Panchgani, not for a holiday but, to follow their elder brother Shivaay who seemed to be hiding something from them. He was changed, enormously.

Two years ago, he was their workaholic brother who was always immersed in his business. Then, they observed a sudden change in him, a positive change. He started smiling more often. It wasn't bad, but smiling without a reason ? Weird. He started spending time in the garden more often and he started taking interest in planting flowers in the Oberoi mansion's lawn, especially white and Red roses and white and pink amaryllises.

Then, there came a day when he didn't come home. Three days passed but no trace of him. And when he came back home, he looked like a stranger. Neither he was their workaholic brother, nor was he the person smiling without any reason. His messed up state scared the whole family.

After that he mostly stayed out for one or the other business meetings and business trips. Their security head, Khanna was the only person they thought, could tell them the train behind such drastic changed in Shivaay. But he didn't know anything or to say, didn't want to say.

So Om and Rudra had decided to follow Shivaay and that led them to be here in Panchgani, away from Mumbai. They wondered why Shivaay lied at home that he was going to Australia for two weeks for some business purpose ?

They entered the house without ringing the doorbell as the door was open. Their footsteps disturbed the peaceful silence and Shivaay turned towards them, clearly shocked seeing them here.

"What happened ? Why are you shocked ? Did you cancel your Business trip to Australia ?" Asked Om, a little offended as Shivaay had never lied to them.

"I..it's n..nothing like that om, Rudra I..." Shivaay stopped as he ran out of words. He hadn't expected anyone to be here and looking at his brothers' faces, he knew he could no longer hide anything from them.

"I'll tell you both everything, just give me sometime, please." Shivaay asked in a tired voice and both of them nodded, not wanting to exhaust him more.

"Sir I've changed HER clothes and the saline bottle also. It will be ok for the night. I'll be in my cottage. Call me if there's any emergency." A middle aged lady said after coming out of a room. She looked like a nurse. Shivaay nodded and the lady left from there.

"SSO!" They heard a childish voice from behind them and saw Shivaay smile a little. Shivaay went towards the little boy and picked him up in his arms.

"Where were you, champ ?" Shivaay asked from the little boy as he marched towards the kitchen followed by OmRu. He prepared Hot chocolate and gave it to the trio.

"Aarav, meet Om and Rudra and OmRu, meet Aarav." Shivaay introduced the little boy, Aarav to OmRu who smiled and bonded well with the little boy and surprisingly, Aarav knew them very well.

Relishing his hot chocolate, Aarav left from there to do his home work whereas, Om and Rudra stood in the kitchen with Shivaay to help him in making dinner silently. They didn't ask anything about Aarav thinking that Shivaay would tell them everything himself.

Shivaay told them to take rest after dinner and showed them their rooms. Whole night passed as they kept thinking about the possible reasons of Shivaay being here.

The morning arrived and Om and Rudra got ready quickly to meet Shivaay. They searched the whole house except one room. They were about to go and check that room but Shivaay entered the house from the main door, with a White and a red rose in his hand. Shivaay didn't notice them and entered that unchecked room.

They followed him only to witness their brother's tears and pain. They had never seen him cry but here, he was crying as he tucked the two roses in a GIRL'S hair and kissed her forhead.

"Stop enjoying all this attention, my rose. You very well know that I can't stay without talking to you and you are taking nice advantage of it." He whispered to the girl but he got in reply, the monotonous beeping sound of the machines. He wanted to look into her eyes but what he saw was the wires attached to her body.

"Your favourite Amaryllises are waiting for you, my rose. Get up !" He whispered to her, kissing her hands. He turned and saw Om and Rudra's confused and shocked faces. He realised that he can no longer hide anything from them.

He went to the lawn and sat on one of the benches there, followed by Om and Rudra.

"Falling in love was a joke for me. I used to laugh at those who said they are in love, I used to call it a waste of time. But, it was before I met her. She did something to me, to my heart, to my whole being." Shivaay spoke finally and OmRu looked at him like they were seeing some stranger. But they waited for him to continue.

She looked the most beautiful among those hundreds of white flowers. White flowers are said to be symbols of innocence and peace. But the innocence of those hundreds of flowers was nothing infront of her purity, her innocence.

Wearing a White long skirt with a baby pink top, she looked so enthralling. Her chubby cheeks and cute little nose looked pink due to the chilly winds and the two roses, one white and the other red looked more pretty in her black hair.

She was scolding the decorators who by mistake stepped onto some flowers. Her scoldings were too sweet to scare someone. Shivaay chuckled as he found her angry face so adorable. His PA and his secueity incharge looked at him with some strange looks as he kept staring the girl until she went out of sight. Just a few minute ago he was scolding them for being late but seeing her he forgot everything.

"Who was that girl ?" He asked from his PA. "Sir, she was the florist and cane here with the delivery of decorative flowers to decorate the yacht for the party." Mishra, his PA managed to speak and Shivaay nodded.

"A Flower itself selling flowers." He thought and chuckled at his own silly thoughts. Seeing Mishra's look he realised he chuckled aloud.

************
"ANIKA di !! This is for my beautiful Di." A little boy smiled and presented a red rose to her. Shivaay mentally thanked the boy for now, he knew her name. Anika, a name of Goddess Durga !!
"AARAV ! You little thief, presenting me a rose from my own shop, han ?" She spoke as she twisted Aarav's ear but gladly took the rose from him.

He felt a sharp pang of pain in his heart as Khanna revealed to him about the girl being orphan. He couldn't understand how could someone smile even after facing so many hardships like living in an orphanage since childhood ?

He felt immense respect towards her as Khanna further revealed that her nine year old brother, Aarav is also an orphan whose mother died in an accident when he was of four years old and Anika took his responsibility and never let him feel as an orphan.

Shivaay stopped his car infront of the HEAVEN named flower shop. This place was indeed a heaven because a fairy lives here, he thought.

"How may I help you, Sir ?" She greeted him with a heart stealing smile and he became blank. He didn't know what to say. He realised he was gawking at her for too long when she again asked him what he wants.

"Rose !" it automatically slipped from his mouth as she indeed looked like a rose, clad in a red floor lenghth gown with White amaryllises painted on it.

He was clearly embarassed when she had to shout to bring him back from his dream world. "I..meant I..I want a red rose." He managed to say and she smiled.

"Who do you want it for ? For girlfriend, ahem... If you don't mind me asking ?" She asked as she went to get a rose for him.

" Ummm yes. For my girlfriend. She is angry on me as I forgot to go to the temple with her." He said as she smiled. Oh her smile !!

"May God soon fulfil her wish as well as yours." She said and handed him the rose. He wanted to talk more but she went to attend the other customers and he left from there, cursing the customer for his wrong timing.

Next day again, he went to the shop and she greeted him with the same smile. He asked for a bunch of roses today.

"Is your girlfriend still angry that you are asking for a bunch of roses today ?" She chuckled as she took the payment from someone.

"No. Actually she wants to go to temple and to bribe God for listening to her prayer soon, that's why these flowers." He answered with a smile, a genuine smile that he never gave to anyone.

"What is so special that she wants to bribe God ?" She asked as she collected the roses carefully.

"A bride for me who would take care of me, she always asks this only." He said and chuckled when she looked at him like he didn't belong to this planet.

"Your girlfriend is searching for a bride for you ? Either she's mad or... are you trying to make me a fool ?" She asked and narrowed her eyes at him, keeping the roses away.

"No. Actually my Dadi wants me to get married but I always say that I've not found a suitable bride for me yet. So she prays to God to for a beautiful and innocent bride for me." He cleared her confusion and she was intelligent enough to understand that his girlfriend is none other than his Dadi.

"Hope your Dadi's wish be fulfilled soon." She said and handed him the bunch of roses as well two roses separately to which he looked at her surprised.

"Actually, today my shop completed four years. So I'm giving two roses to every customer." She said but he didn't take the flowers from her.

"Why don't you put it in my blazer yourself, pretty girl." He asked from her and she smiled but he could see the pink hue on her cheeks.

She fixed the rose in his pocket and tried to give him the other rose. He took the rose from her and offered it to her. She looked surprised but he gestured her to take the flower and she gladly accepted it. The little but sweet gesture made her feel very happy.

"You always have two roses in your hair. you love roses, right ?" He asked out of curiosity.

"No. I like roses too but my favourite are amaryllises, especially white and pink ones. But they are too big to be put in my hair so I put roses." She replied and chuckled at her last sentence. He nodded and left from there thinking about this amaryllis lover, his rose.

*************
She looked around, to find if someone was looking at her. But there was none. She picked up the rose, thinking it might have fallen while she was shifting the flowers inside at night. But next day also, there was a rose and this time with a note.

"This rose is not as beautuful as my rose, but still, please honour it by putting it in your hair, My rose." She read the note and smiled but frowned as thought it must be some random guy who wants to do a time pass. So she threw the note away, making 'some one' frown. But she didn't threw the flower.
*************
"One red rose, please." Shivaay said as soon as he entered the shop but found Anika's smile a little low.

"What happened, Pretty girl ? You look sad." He asked with calmness in his voice but he only knew how bad he felt seeing her ever radiant smile missing.

"Someone gave a rose to Anika didi, but she thinks that the person must be some college going boy playing any prank or doing time pass." Aarav replied instead of Anika for which he got a glare from her.

"May be you are taking 'him' wrong and he is genuine in his actions. You shouldn't make an opinion about him just like that. I mean... I just think like that, Anika. Otherwise it's all upto you." Shivaay said and Anika smiled, widely this time. Then her smile vanished and she looked at him.

"How do you know my name ?" She asked from him and he looked like a deer caught in headlights.

"I..actua... your brother addressed you with your name just now." He replied while fumbling with words as he didn't know if Aarav really addressed anika from her name or not. But luckily he got saved.

"But didi don't know your name, neither do I." It was Aarav who spoke, asking for his name indirectly.

"I'm Shivaay." He said, extending his hand towards Aarav for a handshake and Aarav took it happily and told him his name, not knowing that Shivaay knows it already, all thanks to Aarav's beautiful Didi who stole Shivaay's heart as well as his attention.

************

Anika found a red rose infront of the shop in the early morning, with a note.

"I don't know if you look good with rose in your hair or the rose looks beautiful just because you put it in your hair. Do honour this rose by putting it in your locks." She read the note and smilingly kept it in a box in which she keeps her precious things.

************
Months passed and the bonds became stronger. Every morning, One would wake up to see his rose and to make her feel loved and the other would wake up, only to pick up the rose given by 'someone' and wait for the person who comes to buy rose for his girlfriend.

Then came a day when Anika realised that her life is not like any other girl who can dream of a happy life with her love. She wanted to see the person who without fail gave her these beautiful flowers everyday. But she burried her desires in her heart and wrote a note for that 'someone', telling him to never do this again as they can never be together.
***********
Shivaay's heartbeat almost stopped as he read the note. His mind kept thinking anything and everything which could be the reason of her denial. The thought which scared him to death was, "What if she loves someone else ?"

It was Shivaay who used to send those roses and notes. Everything was fine until today. He went to keep the note infront of her shop but found a note for himself.

"I don't know who you are ? Why are you doing this ? I don't know what you feel for me is mere an attraction or more than that, but I want to tell you that I... love you. But I also want to tell you that our paths are different. We can't be together, so please stop this and find someone who would be with you forever." He read the note again and again but be couldn't find the reason of her denials.
**************
He went to her shop but it was closed. From last two days he couldn't get a glimpse of her and he experienced what hell could be. He knew that he loves her, but these two days made him realise the intensity of his feelings for his rose.
*************
It was a shock for Anika when she found the road infront of her shop filled with her favourite flowers. This area was not an industrial area but still it had a lot of traffic due to college going students and other passengers. Then how could it be so isolated ?

She stepped out of her shop, only to be showered by rose petals and looked up to see.. a chopper doing the honour.

"This proposal is not as unique as you, my rose. But I could think of nothing because you keep roaming in mind, all the time. I have nothing to say to you. I can't say I love you to you because these words can't do justice to the amount of my love for you. Neither I can die because my Dadi is waiting to see me married to a beautiful and innocent girl, she even goes to temple to wish for the same. I don't think any girl would ever be able to match the Beauty and innocence of MY ROSE. I want to live with you, grow old with you and share my toothless smile with you. So, all I want is to ask you...

Will !!!

You !!!

Marry !!!

Me ???"

He shouted and she looked here and there to find the source of the voice but found none.

"my Dadi is waiting to see me married to a beautiful and innocent girl, she even goes to temple to wish for the same."

For a moment she remembered HIM, the person who comes to her shop everyday to buy flowes for his Dadi and the thought made her feel jittery. She was overwhelmed but dreaded the moment she would have to say no to the love of her life. She has never seen him, nor she has ever talked to him but her love for him is beyond all these things, she knew and it caused more pain to her heart.

"I can't. I just can't !!! Go away, please." She shouted looking here and there as she couldn't see him.

"I know you love me, you told me that. But do you think I don't know the reason for your denial ? You're wrong. I know what's holding you back. I would be more than happy to be Aarav's jiju, his big brother, his guide, and even a father. I would never even think of separating your brother from you. I know about your past, your present is infront of me. And I just want to be a part of your future. I'm a little selfish here because I know your presence in my future would make it the best. So, please answer my question, rose. Please let it be a yes, or else I'll jump from this chopper." He shouted again and her eyes widened.

She kept thinking as how did he know why she was denying his love ? But then she saw her brother looking at everything with a smile and she knew the answer. But she thought to teach a lesson to her traitor brother later. For now she had to answer someone.

"Please answer, rose. Varna mai murjha jaunga." He shouted and she chuckled at his poor sense of humour while nodding in a yes with a wide smile, teary eyes and with a longing to see him as soon as possible.

She was startled when someone hugged her from behind and she felt her body shivering with this touch. She turned around and she was right. Her secret lover was none other than Her Kanji eyed customer.

A tight slap landed on his cheek, and then he found her hugging him. This combination was unexpected but he didn't care. When he was about to reciprocate, she broke the hug and frowned adorably.

"You were not in the chopper but still you threatened me that you'll jump. How mean !" She complained and Aarav and Shivaay laughed.

"Everything was perfect. I was so happy with her. She was indeed a rose who spread beauty, love and fragrance of happiness in my life." Shivaay said as he stood a little away from Om and Rudra to hide his tears from them and caressed His Rose' picture in his wallet.

"Th..Then How... why she's l..like this ?" Rudra asked while fumbling with words. He had never seen his brother so vulnerable, for anyone, so he was scared to ask anything. He was scared that his Shivaay bhai would break down.

"Don't be scared Rudra, I won't break down. I have hope with me. I know, she had promised to me that she won't leave me, ever." Shivaay said as his eyes had a distant look in his eyes.

"Sh..She was coming to meet me. I was going to take her to the temple to meet dadi. She had asked me not to come to pick her up. She wanted to come on her own and.. and that was my biggest mistake. Sh..She met with an accident." Shivaay stopped speaking as his throat denied to speak.

"My rose was looking so beautiful that day. Sh...She sent me a photo of her, just to tease me so that I would wait for her impatiently. ( He chuckled ) I wonder how she didn't know that I'm always impatient when the matter concerns her." He smiled as he remembered his secret video call with Aarav that day.

Aarav was hiding behind the door of Anika's room with mobile in his hand and it's screen facing towards Anika without her knowledge. Shivaay was looking at her as well as chuckling when she was talking to herself.

"I want to look the best so that Dadi would like me." She smiled dreamily and then she smirked.

"I'll send him a picture of mine so that Billu ji will wait impatiently for me." She laughed and twirled holding the sky blue dress.

"I kept waiting for her. But I just received a call from her number and got to know that.. that she met with an accident. 48 hours ! Those 48 hours were unexplainable. I want to erase the memories of that dreadful day. After 48 hours, doctors informed me that sh...She was conscious. I felt my breathe coming back to me. B..but She could say only two things and then, she slept, leaving me alone to wait until she wakes up." Shivaay spoke as now his tears were unstoppable.

"Pl..please promise...me shiv you..you would t..take ca..re of m..my Aarav a..nd I..want you to..keep s..miling. I..l..ove y..ou."

"I'm a..angry with her f..for making me stand at this point when.. When I can't live and I can't die either. And the worst thing, I can't even hate my rose for this.. I can't." Shivaay said and fell down on his knees, crying hysterically. Om and Rudra sat either sides of him, not knowing how to ease his pain. His pain reliever was someone else.

***********
A new day, new feelings and a new hope filled his senses as Shivaay looked at her face. He was about to walk outside as it was 12 am when, he felt a gentle tug on his little finger. His senses stopped working and he couldn't think anything. What if, what he was thinking was not true ? What if he turns and find her sleeping again ? He would die. His mind was shouting not to turn and his heart was pleading to turn once.

"Ha..happy bi..birth..day B..bil..lluji." He heard a meek voice that sounded like a sweet melody to his ears that were longing to hear this one voice in this world full of noise.

He turned and her teary eyes that were tired met his blur orbs. Her face had weakness but still she looked like a fairy to him that descended from heavens to fulfil his wish on his birthday.

"You finally g..got time f..for me, Rose ?" He asked in a feeble voice and her tears flowed down as she tried to hold his hand tightly but her weakness didn't allow her that. He neared his hands to her lips and she kissed his knuckles.

"I...could..not l..let you be sad on your birthday." She said and he looked at her in astonishment but chose to keep silence. He wanted to admire her face and stare into her eyes for long.

"I...I wish..wished you an..and you didn't even hugged me." She complained and tried to make the atmosphere normal and next minute she was engulfed in a tight hug, with Shivaay crying loudly with his head on her chest and her hands on his back to soothe him.

"I d..don't have a gift.. with me to give you in y..your birthday." She innocently said and he smiled.

"You've already given it to me, by giving me my rose back. I'm happy with it, now please don't leave me." He said with the last line being said with tears flowing down his cheeks.

"I won't." She managed to reply as her weakness didn't allow such long conversation and her eyes were droopy again.

"Promise ?" He asked as he tucked a hair strand behind her ear, making her realise that something was tickling her ear. She realised it was a rose. She looked confused and he understood.

"I never let your habit break, by putting rose in your hair. Now promise me that you won't leave me ever." He said.

Anika tried to get up but failed to do that and got scoldings from Shivaay. She pulled out the rose out of her hair and asked him to come close to her. She put that rose in the front pocket of his kurta and whispered "pinky promise" and kissed his cheek, making him smile widely.

"It was for the pinky promise, what about my birthday wali kiss ?" He asked nearing his face to hers.

She blushed and couldn't say anything except for "Cheapde" and he kissed her cheek making her shocked and blush when he whispered, "ONLY FOR MY ROSE."

THE END
