Bonus chapter

Ishika and Abhimanyu were on the terrace enjoying hot chocolate while gazing at the stars. "Abhi, I want to learn how to drive." Abhimanyu's eyes widened and looked at Ishika "driving? Why? I am here, we have drivers then why?"

Ishika kept her mug on the compound wall and looked at Abhimanyu. "But I want to learn , what if I have to go somewhere in an emergency and no one's home then?" Abhimanyu let out a chuckle "but jaan i am just one call away and there's no way a driver won't be available here"

Ishika shook her head firmly "noo i wanna learn driving and that's final if you don't teach me I'll apply for driving school" abhimanyu ruffled his hairs he can't let ishika learn from someone else he didn't trust any driving school without any option he had to agree. "Okay okay I'll teach you"

Ishika smiled proud she knew abhi would never say no to anything. She picked up her mug sipping hot chocolate. "Ishi what do you love the most?" Abhi asked Ishika without taking a minute to say "you of course and after you i love food" Abhi felt proud of being no 1 on the list.

Abhi wrapped his arms around her shoulder giving it a light squeeze while staring at the beautiful sky full of stars. "The moon is beautiful isn't it" Ishika spoke, staring at the moon , abhi looked at ishi nodding "very" he kissed Ishika's cheeks gaining a giggle from her.

Abhimanyu peppered her with kisses "abhi stop" she laughs Abhimanyu captures her lips in a passionate kiss. Ishika kissed him back, wrapping her hands around his neck. He tilts his head, deepening the kiss. Their lips moulded with each other perfectly. Abhi pulled back letting Ishika breathe.

"Mhm tastes like hot choco" abhi teased ishika , she just buried her face in his chest. "Abhi tomorrow morning you are teaching me how to drive"  Abhi mentally facepalmed. He thought Ishika forgot about driving but Ishika was determined to learn.

Next day:

As decided ishika and Abhinanyu were in garage "ishi are you sure?" Abhi asked for the nth time. Ishika glared at abhi "Mr singh i said yes already for nth time"  Mr singh was enough for abhi to shut his mouth and start teaching.

Abhi drove out of the garage driving to an empty ground for Ishika to practise. Abhi parked the car and turned off the engine. Ishika got out of the car excitedly and went to the driving seat, opening the door. Abhimanyu removed seatbelt and got out of the car. Ishika got in the driving seat while Abhi sat in the passenger seat.

"See ishi our car is automatic so we you don't have to learn about gear and clutch just need to control your speed and proper judgement" ishika nods "okay press the start button" Abhimanyu instructed , ishika pressed the start button "and slowly release the clutch very slowly okay?"

Ishika nodded and slowly release the clutch as she did the car started a slow moment, "now give a little press on accelerator" ishika slowly pressed the accelerator giving a little raise in speed "good just like that now turn the steering towards me not much just a little" like that abhi guided ishika which she did perfectly. She was always a fast learner which helped her excel in whatever she did.

Ishika applied the brake and looked at abhi "did you see i did it" abhi pats her head with a warm smile "yes you did better for the starters. We'll practise everyday so that you can drive on roads too"  ishika nods and gets out of the car.

"Now dear biwi shall I give you a reward for doing good on the first day?" Abhi asked as he got into the driver's seat. "What reward would you give me?" Ishika asked excitedly. "ah ah biwi it's a surprise you'll know your reward soon" Ishika pouts, crossing her arms.

"Don't pout jaan i might kiss you till you are breathless" abhimanyu whispered in her ear and pressed a gentle kiss on her ear. Ishika's cheeks turned red and hit his shoulder "abhi just drive back home" abhimanyu chuckles and starts driving back home. Ishika calmed her beating heart by taking a few breaths.

Later that day ishika returned home from work she went to kids room to check on kids both were playing happily she went to them and kissed mishika and maan's forehead "how are my little stars" mishika smiles and hugged her "best maa i made a friend in school she is soo nice and you know i am participating in drawing comp too" ishika smiles hearing mishika the childhood she deserved but didn't got but she made sure her daughter get a perfect childhood.

"And maan what did you do?" Ishika asked maan pinching his cheeks, "I went to play school with nanny , i ate a lot of jalebi kept in the fridge" he whispered the last sentence like it was a secret. Maan is just like Ishika who loves food. Ishika smiles and pats their head.

Ishika went into her room to freshen up, she frowned seeing a box on bed. She went to pick up the box and opened it. A small gasp left her mouth seeing  a beautiful saree. There was a small note in it ,

'To be beautiful wife ,

wear this dress and come to the place where driver will take you'

Ishika kissed the note smiling, properly folding the note she kept in her drawer. She picked up the saree admiring it. She went to the bathroom to freshen up , she took the dress and wore it. She did light make up and let her hair loose open.

She took a last look in the mirror before leaving the room to meet abhi. She walked out the driver was already waiting for her, he opened the door for her to get in, she got the  car and driver started driving to the location.

Ishika tried to ask the driver about the place they were going but the driver had sealed her lips. Ishika had to sit and wait for them to reach. Soon they reached the location and driver opened the door for her. Ishika got off the car and looked around it was a restaurant.

Ishika walked in only to be greated by the manager. The manager led ishika to the elevator. The elevator went on to the top floor. The manager directed ishika to go straight. Ishika walked straight a gasps left her mouth.

It was a rooftop restaurant, where Mumbai's skyline was visible looking just wonderful. She felt pair of arms around her waist, she didn't have to turn around to see only one man can hold her like this. "Abhi" ishika whispered abhi kissed her cheeks.

"Do you like my surprise?" Ishika nods with a wide smile. "Like? I love it" Ishika whispered, abhi smiles satisfied and breaking the hug he holds her hand taking her to the centre where their table was placed. He pulled out the chair for her and she sat down and he went to sit in front of her. The waiter served them drinks and slow music was playing for them.

"So Janeman, what will you have?" Abhi asked forwarding her the menu. Ishika shook her head "you order today we'll have something you like" abhi chuckles and orders Ishika's fav dishes. "Abhi i said I wanna eat what you like" Abhi held her hand "jaan i like what you like.." and again Ishika's cheeks were red.

After the dinner was served they both ate telling each other about how their day went. And the time went by just like that. After dinner Abhi held out his hand for Ishika "may i have a dance with you beautiful lady?" Abhi asked, ishika smiled mischievous "im sorry my husband won't like it"

Abhimanyu held Ishika's hand and kissed her knuckles helping her off chair. The slow music was played and they both swayed their bodies slowly to the rhythm of music. Ishika leaned her head on Abhimanyu's chest while he held her close peppering her with kisses.  The music stopped but these two didn't they were just lost in to each other.

"Abhi" ishika called him , abhi just hums in response "i love you" Abhimanyu's heart still skips a beat hearing her say 'I love you' even after all these years. Abhimanyu cupped her cheeks capturing her lips in a kiss. Abhimanyu poured all his emotions into that kiss. He broke a kiss and leaned his forehead against her.

"I love you too, my wife, a lot," he spoke capturing her lips in another kiss. As they kissed the fireworks started in the background. Ishika broke the kiss and gasped looking at the firecrackers that were busting. Abhimanyu hugged her from behind with them enjoying the beautiful scene in front of him.

Ishika just wished that her love , stays like this forever till the end of their lives and even after live. Forever till the eternity.
