Chaahat's POV:

He slept on the couch peacefully ruining my peace, harmony and making my mind insanely crazy that even after I was on his lavish spring bed once he boasted of bedding me... I was left all alone in  pain, in my own thoughts and glimpses of our past!!!

I tried hard I couldn't sleep 🥺

I tried ...tried...failed...

I got up at once...

I took one last look at him sleeping peacefully on the couch...

I left from there...

I needed to breath...

I needed some air...

Clock ticked 3 am in the midnight!

I sneaked out of the room and saw there was no one in the living room...

I slowly took steps towards the living room and finally stepped out to the huge backyard garden space of Kapoor's Mansion.

I saw the swing I and Neiv used to swing each other and play together was still there
...

I went and sat on the swing and kept swinging recalling our childhood...

With every push my tears became more prominent... Tears flowed non stop and I closed my eyes to let them flow peacefully....

The moonlight, breeze and this loneliness was an awesome combination indeed.

I wiped my face after they happily left my eyes...I kept swinging while I felt a push on my back...

For a minute I was 😨 scared.
I mean come on...it's 3 am midnight... who wouldn't be scared...

While I again felt a strong push and next I heard a hoarse voice...

'What are you doing alone here at this time?' and I lightly moved my head sidewards...

I see this Devil husband of mine pushing my swing and I blinked my eyes looking at him and i slowed down swinging and gradually stopped...

And got down from the swing... and went a bit away near the rose plantations...
While he said...
'Now don't tell me you want to play on the see saw!!! I will look funny sitting on that Chaahat' he said trying to be funny...

I felt the cold breeze of air hit my body. It was the month of January and Bangalore is crazily cold during December and January. I was in a mere t-shirt pajamas. To add on some lame jokes by Mr Sadist Kapoor!!! 😏

'Why are you here Neiv...I'll be ok...you go and sleep...' I said hugging my body and rubbing my forearms with my palms...

'Chaahat...we need to get up early morning... We have to travel to Kuldevi (family goddess) temple in morning' he said softly

'Its suffocating in that room Neiv...I need some space alone' I said...

While I heard footsteps and they were going away...

He left 😏

I closed my eyes recalling how beautiful our coffee nights were in Sydney... Now it's all a memory. I still remember he used to get us coffee... and one big quilt ...he would pull me on his lap... Offer me the coffee and engulf us both in the quilt.

Warmth in his arms...felt great... how much I miss those arms...his warmth...

While I felt a huge pashmina shawl wrapped around me...

I turned around only to see him standing infront of me...

'You will catch cold....let's go' he said...

'You go...I'll come later' I turned around...

While this time I felt his arms around me...I had goosebumps and I swallowed a lump!

'Its late Chaahat...come... You can visit the garden tomorrow for hours... now Shutup and come'

I looked at him with a frown...

'Look Mrs Kapoor...I could have lifted you up to my room if I wasn't limping but now neither do I want to be a bollywood hero nor will my walking stick permit me' he said pouting at me...

'I don't expect it either! Mr Kapoor! Why should I come there? To see you stuffing yourself on that couch??? I won't! If you don't want me to sleep on the bed fine I won't but atleast don't take that couch with that leg for god's sake! Please 🥺'

Next second I felt him hold my hand...

'Come Chaahat...it's late... please' he said...

And how can Chaahat ever refuse her Neiv... I'm so much smitten by this Devil of mine that he says jump off a cliff I'll happily even do that! This was mere going back to his room.

Stepping back into his room...I saw him slowly pick his extra pillow, quilt and take slow steps towards the bed.

He kept it on the bed...while I picked my pillow and quilt and began walking towards the couch...

While I heard him..
'Where to???'

'Couch!!!' I whispered softly

'And how did you think I'll let you take that uncomfortable couch Chaahat? This bed is quite big...you have a seperate quilt and pillow too... We can share the bed' he said at once...

While my heart was beaming happiness.

I nodded and took the other side of the bed and he lied down.

Being on the same bed in his room...his house...as his wife...was something I always dreamt of but feeling this actually happening was anything I could ever describe in words...

I saw him covering himself with quilt and switching off the table lamp by his side and he mumbled a 'Goodnight'

While this time I had a smile on my face.

I closed my eyes peacefully.

Neiv's POV:

I felt something soft near my neck... Some hot air touching my shoulders...

I tried to move but I couldn't...I felt like I was been hugged my something tighter...

I opened my eyes to find Chaahat... holding me tightly in her arms and crushing me tightly like she wanted to literally squeeze me like a tomato. I felt her soft lips leaving magical kisses on my neck and her hot breath fanning my earlobes and beard...

Ufff!!! This woman is irresistable...

Slowly I felt her move upon me and hovering me on top...while now my heart was beating in my mouth...

'Ch....Ch....ch....cha...cchchh... Chaahat... what are you doing...'

To which I heard a naughty whisper in my ear...

'Loving you my Devil!!!' and next I felt a open kiss on my neck...

I tried hard to stop her but I felt like my hands paralyzed...she began nibbling my ears and peppered hot wet kisses on my neck and jaws while I moaned her name crazily...

'Chaaahhhh....ahhhh..... what are you doing baby' I closed my eyes

'Neivvv'

'Yes Chaah'

'Neivvv'

'Oh...Chaaahhhhhh'

'Neivvvvv!!!'

'Hmmmm'

'Neivvvv!!!'

And I felt a shake on my shoulder...

While I kept hearing 'Neivvv'

And I opened my eyes only to see Chaah standing infront of me in a pink salwar suit...

I kept looking at her...

She was looking at me gulping dry multiple times..

She's there then who's here ..

And I saw I was still in quilt...on my bed and she was up and ready...

She kept gulping nervously and muttered under her breath nervously...

'I....Ummm...I.... I'm going...da...da...da... downstairs... You...get ready and come'

Without waiting my reply she ran down the staircase as she had turned red like a tomato...

After a few minutes... I blinked through and finally understood 😳 that was a dream 😮

Shit!!! Was I moaning her name...

Shit shit!!! What the hell...

I can't fantasize her like that!!!

Damn damn!!! I need a cold shower 🤦

Cursing my harmones I got ready in no time... Once I was good..I got ready in a white kurta pajama as we are supposed to go to temple.

Slowly taking my walking stick I walked down the staircase and I saw only dad, Veer Bhai- Nisha Bhabhi, Ahana Chachi- Dhruv Chachu were here...

Soon I saw Aaru-Mihir, Malu-Vansh, Bela Masi and Mahir uncle joined us. Dad was talking to everyone while I couldn't find Maa and 'Her'

While everyone came to wave us a goodbye...I asked Dad where Ma was and he signalled towards their bedroom which was on the ground floor...By then I heard Aaru squeal in happiness...
'Chaah Di.... woooow...you look breathtaking'

And I turned around ...

One flash!!! I swallowed a lump dry!!!
