He took her hand in his and kissed her knuckles

She smiled.

She opened her eyes only to find her rose plant in balcony.

"My rose plant..." she chirped

"I brought it here..." he said

He turned to face her.

"Thanks..." she chirped

He cupped her soft face and placed a warm kiss on her forehead

"I love you" He chirped

"I love you too..." She said

They joined their foreheads.

"Harsh I am planning to arrange pooja..." "What are your thoughts?" Dadi said

"Great idea Maa...ofcourse we should do it.." "Sanyukta is fine...she came back home" "Randhir is doing good in business...I think we should arrange pooja" Harsh said

"Renuka...?" Dadi looked at her

"If you both have already decided then why are you asking me?" "Sanyukta ko aab saar pe bithana baki hai bas" Renuka taunted

"Renuka..." Harsh roared

"Don't forget because of her our Randhir is happy today" "He is changed into a better person" Harsh said

Renuka left the place in anger

Randhir heard everything.

He felt bad because his mother has not accepted Sanyukta yet.

"Randhir...come here beta" Dadi said

Randhir joined them

"How is Sanyukta now?" Harsh asked

"She is much better...taking rest in room" Randhir said

"So we are planning for a pooja..." Dadi said

"I heard that..." Randhir said

"Main chahti hu tum aur Sanyukta pooja main betho..." Dadi said

Randhir nodded happily.

"Can we arrange pooja on Sanyukta's birthday?" Randhir suggested

"Best...yes...day after tomorrow is her birthday...best day for pooja..." Dadi said

"Fantastic..." Harsh said

"I am taking Sanyukta's breakfast in room...See you later dad...Dadi..." He said

"Sure..." Harsh replied

Randhir left.

"Maa...I am proud of Randhir" "Like just see the change in him..." Harsh said

"I know Harsh...I am so happy for my children" "And you too...I told you...you won't regret your decision of getting them married" Dadi said

"I just hope...Sanyukta understands and forgives Randhir once knowing th truth" Harsh said

"Love is forgiveness..." Dadi said

- - - - - - - - -

"Okay...bas I am done...I can't eat more" Sanyukta said wiping her mouth with cloth

"Only this much is left...you have to complete it...chalo come on fast...finish it..." Randhir said

"Randhir..." She made a crying face

"No..." He said

She finished whole bowl of corn flakes

"Done..." She said

"Good girl..." He said

"Dadi and Dad is arranging pooja day after tomorrow on your birthday" Randhir informed her

"Really..." Sanyukta replied

"Yes...and they want both of us to do pooja..." "Will you be able to do?" He said

"Ofcourse..." She replied happily

"Okay..." Randhir stood up and kept the tray on table

"Randhir..." She called him

"Hmmm..." He looked at her

"Come here..." She said

Randhir went and sat in front of her

"Hmmm...bolo" He said

"Randhir...you got ready for pooja...'" "I mean...you don't believe in ...all this...in god" "Then..." she said

He smiled faintly

"I have now started believing in god..." He said

"God is there...within us...around us...always..." He said

"You know when I felt this...when I realize god exists?" "When he saved you..." "When he gave my life...back to me....when he saved you Sanyukta..." Randhir's voice became low

"From that moment...I started believing in god and his existence" "God is there..." "I believe this..." He said firmly

Sanyukta was stunned hearing that.

"And I know you believe in god" "Much more then me...I know that" "So this pooja is for your well being" "You are fine now..." "You are recovering..." "For you..." He said

She immediately hugged him.

"Mere dil mein jagah Khuda ki khaali thi

Dekha wahan pe aaj tera chehra hai

Main bhatakta huaa sa ek baadal hoon

Jo tere aasmaan pe aake thehra hai"

"Why do you love me so much?" She said

"Cause you have left no option for me.." He hugged more tightly

He broke the hug and scanned her face.

There was passion and desire in their eyes.

He rubbed his thumb on her lips

She parted her lips immediately

"You like...when I kissed you yesterday?" He said

She blink her eyes in response

"I like when you love me Randhir..." She said

"I want to love you day and night..." He said

"I want you to love me every night"

"So every morning I wake up with a hope of you loving me again at night" She said

She came forward and pressed her lips on his.

This came like a shock to Randhir

She took initiative for a kiss

She started sucking his upper lip

Remembering their last kiss she was trying to do the same

Randhir found her cute

But she wasn't happy with her performance.

She broke the kiss in between.

"Kya hua?" He asked

"Kuch nahi..." She looked down

"Then why do you stop..." He said

"Randhir...how are you so expert in kiss" She asked

"What?" "What kind of question is this?" Randhir was perplexed

"You are better kisser..." "I am nowhere close to you" She said

He laughed at her words

"From where did you learn?" She asked

"Sanyukta...this is not a finance concept to learn from somewhere" "Its a kiss..." "It happens naturally...kiss is done naturally, spontaneously...with feelings for the person you love..." He laughed more

She looked away

"Now what?" He cupped her face

"How many girls you kissed?" She asked directly

Randhir was taken aback hearing her questions.

"What..?" He said

"That day...Kabir...said..." "You had affairs...in college...so you must have kissed you girlfriends" "I know I am not the first girl you kissed..." She said

Randhir was shocked

"Yes you are not the first girl I kissed..." He admitted
