“hashhh… .  I'm so tired bhai” Ayaan said, throwing himself on the bed while Abhimaan looked at him through the mirror, removing the wrist watch and placing it on the mirror table.

“How is everything going in the hospital?”

“Good. It's getting tiring and after returning it'll be more tiring to manage the gap of these three days.”

Ayaan sat on the bed and yawned. Whereas Abhimaan opened his shirt buttons then picked some tee from the luggage.

“You should take a little nap, Ayaan. I'm going to get fresh”

“Bhai…  can I say one thing?” Ayaan gained Abhimaan's attention and when he looked at him, asking him to continue, Ayaan cleared his throat before saying.

“Please fix everything with Rehana. I know it's your  and her place to decide but please bhai. I've seen how much hurt she was when you're taunting her.”

“What do you think, Ayaan? I am heartless? I don't love her?”

“I know bhai. I know you love her that's why I'm asking you to sort out everything. Neither I can see you hurt nor her”

“everything will be fine Ayaan. Don't worry” Abhimaan patted Ayaan's shoulder and went inside the washroom while Ayaan sighed hard. And decided to talk with Ishani for some time, so that the sleepiness will be gone.

~♥~

“Ishani…  you're looking sleepy. Please take a rest” Divya said while helping Rehana to unpack the things. Whereas they made Ishani sit down on the bed and doing their work.

“I'm doing nothing Divya di. You two are not letting me to work with you and now asking me to sleep.”

“It's okay. You're the youngest one among us.” Rehana said with a smile and Divya too joined her by saying “So chalta hai” three of them laughed out.

They three were busy laughing and talking when Ishani's phone started ringing.

She looked at thr caller id then in front of her to the girls who were giving her naughty smirk and Ishanu felt her cheeks and ears were getting hot.

She picked up the call, biting her lips shyly “hello”

“What are you doing?” Came Ayaan's impatient voice.

“I'm…  I am talking with Rehana di and Divya di”

“Ahhh…  I miss you Ishu” Ishani's eyes widened hearing the lovely nickname her husband has given her and then at Rehana and Divya who were giggling.

“Hello? Ishu, are you listening?” Ayaan asked further when he didn't get any reply from Ishani.

Divya snatched the phone from Ishani who hid her face blushing face in the pillow and then at Rehana's lap, who's sitting beside her.

“Bhai…  what is this?”

“Divya?”

“Yes, me.”

“Give the phone to Ishani?”

“Who is Ishani bhai?”

Divya bit her cheeks to control her laugh.

“Ishani…  my wife and your sister-in-law. The girl with whom you're staying. Now pass the phone to her”

“Ohhh…  her name is Ishani? We thought her name was…..”  Divya was cut off by Rehana who shouted “Ishuuuu” and both of them laughed out, embarrassing the couple.

Ayaan started coughing as the nickname he gave to his wife, now heard by others too.

Ishani took the phone when Rehana and Divya were busy laughing hard.

“I will call back you later” Saying Ishani hung off the call and turned back to look at Rehana and Divya. Who were already looking at her and then shouted in unison “ishuuuuu”

~♥~

“May I come in sir?” Hiya asked, standing at the doorstep of Vihaan's room, peeking through the ajar door.

“Yes my dear wife please come” Vihaan turned, hearing her voice and kept the phone on the table, seeing Hiya coming inside, with two dresses in her arms.

When Hiya came near Vihaan and smiled sheepishly looking at him, the next moment she felt being pulled by him.

He kept the dresses in the bed and placed his palms on her waist, while her hands automatically went to encircle his neck.

“What happened?” He asked, nuzzling his nose with her. And she shook her head with a smile.

“All okay?” Vihaan asked, caressing her hair.

“Hmmm…  but I'm very worried”

“About?”

“What should I wear at Divya's birthday party?” She made a cute pout and Vihaan felt something twitched on his anatomy down there.

He looked aside and closed his eyes, murmuring curses and then looked back at her, who's confused seeing his reaction all of a sudden.

“Are you okay Vihaan?” Hiya touched his forehead, in worry and Vihaan pushed her on the bed mattress, with him hovering over her.

Hiya's eyes widened in shock as what just happened in a flicker of a moment.

“you're looking so beautiful,” Vihaan said, leaning his face down to her neck and inhaling deeply, making her shudder and red in shyness. Her breathing got uneven, her heart started beating rapidly.

“Calm down Hiya” He said looking straight at her eyes and she calmed down, realising he was just feeling her presence, nothing less.

“I'll do nothing without your consent. If you want I won't even touch you.” Saying Vihaan was trying to get up but Hiya hugged him and closed her eyes.

“Please stay” She mumbled near his ear and tightened her hold around his back.

They stayed like this for some moment. Until Vihaan felt the urge to know why she came into his room. He got up from her and then helped her to.

“I came here to show you something”

Vihaan nodded his head , waiting to see what she wanted.

“In which dress do you want to see me? This black backless one or the red v neck one?” She showed him the two dresses she brought with a cute face and he chuckled, before pulling her in his lap, as she was standing in front of him with the dresses.

“You do not have to dress up for me”

“So.. You do not want to see me as your favourite?”

“I love you. That means you are my favourite. These dresses are the outer essentials to make people look good. But I love the inner beauty of your Hiya. Your heart, your soul, your innocence and in need of your boldness.”

She looked at the man with amaze and smiled, lowering her lashes.

“Dress up for yourself. Not for others. Not even for me. I would love to see you in everything you want. But the choice would be yours every time. Not mine. Because it's your life and it's your rights” He palmed her cheeks and she leaned her face more into his warm palm before holding his palm in her hold and kissed them.

“You're the bestest thing that happened in my entire life” She said and pecked his lips out of love. When he took the advantage and pulled her lips in between his to suck them deeper.

~♥~

“Everything is ready. I've checked the hall too.” Raunak ran to Abhimaan and Ayaan and huffed. Because he was running from one place to another to check if everything was okay or not.

Abhimaan and Ayaan smiled and then hugged Raunak. Raunak was startled at first when he felt he was being hugged by the two dangerous men but felt ease with time and smiled at them breaking the hug.

“Thank you for everything” Abhimaan said patting Raunak's shoulded

“I love her. And i really wanted to make her birthday super special” Raunak replied making Ayaan and abhimaan happy.

“We must say Divya chose the best,” Ayaan said and laughed with Abhimaan while Raunak felt shy.

“I should leave,” He said, scratching the back of his neck and leaving.

“He is good,” Ayaan said, looking at Raunak's back.

“but he is so mysterious.” Ayaan looked at Abhimaan confusedly as to why he said Raunak's mysterious.

“his family background is so grey. Everywhere in the place of his guardian name it was his elder brother name Mayank Rajvansh”

“May be his parents were no more”

“Still he should have been use his late father's name right”

“Let it be na bhai. Raunak is good by heart. He loves our sister and will keep her happy. That's enough. What's the need to dig into his family background right?” Ayaan asked and Abhimaan nodded his head absentmindedly.

“Bhai… I think chachu is calling me. You go and check the food courts”

“Sure” With this Ayaan left.

“There's something in his family which he doesn't want to let the world know. You are too naive to know people's real colour Ayaan. But I've to make sure he is good in everything and in every way before it's gone too late” he said to himself and turned, to see his wife coming with Hiya all smiling, in a peacock green long wavy gown, looking stunning the way she are.

His heartbeats calm down seeing her smiling face and the way she was tucking her loose hair locks behind her ear, ended the war in his mind.

Their eyes met when Rehana felt his intense gaze on her and the next moment she felt being pulled by Ishani to the food court counters. While she was still looking at the man, who's also looking at her so deeply, so lovingly.

~♥~

Raunak went to Divya's room to call her when he knock on the door and heard her father's voice, he opened the ajar door fully and went inside, as Samaira asked him to.

Samaira made Divya and Raunak stand together and took their balaye to remove the evil eyes. And kissed their forehead.

Raunak felt his eyes were getting heavy, as Samaira kissed his forehead with love and affection.

“What happened young man?” Dev asked placing his hand on Raunak's shoulder who shook his head and wiped the corner of his eyes.

“I have never seen my mom's face. She died before I could make some memories with her”

Divya felt bad for him and hugged.

“Please don't cry. I'm feeling sad” She said with a sad pout and Dev chuckled at his princess.

“Princess…  he is not crying, see.” Dev pulled her from Raunak who gave her a smile and then looked at Sanaira who stepped forward and held his hand.

“Consider me as your mother Raunak. I will be always there for you” Samaira said, caressing Raunak's cheek and he forwarded his palm at her.

“Promise?”

“Promise” Samaira kept her hand over his and Raunak hugged her.

“Thank you Aunty” He said and Samaira patted his cheeks with a smile.

Divya was happy for Raunak. So happy, seeing him happy with her family.

“We should go now. Everyone's waiting for the birthday girl. Also it's just two more hours left for Divya's birthday” Raunak said and they four left.

~♥~

“How am I looking?” Ishani twirlied, holding her gown sides, looking extremely happy.

She was wearing a peach coloured gown. With flowers petal all over it. Off shoulder sleeves with fabric tying up on her shoulder.

Ayaan smiled and held her wrist, stopping her from twirling , then pulled her close.

“You're looking like a princess. My princess” He nuzzled his nose with her and she giggled.

“Thank you. And you're looking as if my prince charming.” Ishani encircled her arms around Ayaan's neck and smiled wholeheartedly.

Finally she was living her life happily, and the reason was the man in front of her. Who never left a moment to keep her happy.

“What are you thinking, Ishu?” Ayaan tucked the small hair locks aside and looked at her eyes.

“How did I become so lucky to have you?”

“Who said you're lucky?”

Ishani frowned and replied “I'm saying that i am lucky to have you in my life”

“Nahhh” He shook his head and twirled her, making her back touch his chest.

Ishani was feeling nervous, when his hot breath started fanning on her bare neckline. He kept his chin on her right shoulder and held her belly from behind.

Ishani also kept her palms over his and tightened the grip of her knuckles.

“I am lucky to have you, Ishani. Trust me. I have never been with girls before the way I'm with you these days. When I saw you for the first time, you came with your sister at our hospital, asking for her leave sanctions."

He paused and smiled remembering the day "I remember how scared you looked, when our gazes met. The red hue on your cheekbone. Your trembled plumpy lips. I'll never forget how beautiful you looked that day, in the pink salwar suit, with your long hair open, below your waist."

He caressed her hairs and kissed the top of her head "I am always fond of girls with long hair. I didn't even allowed Hiya to cut her hair till her high school. Though Divya always has the length from the beginning. But then I saw your hair that day. And that's what tantalised me the most. After that day you just disappeared from my sight. I used to go to your house just to have a look at you but Suhani never allowed you to come and meet me. I know that” he said softly near her ears, and goosebumps rose all over Ishani's body, the grip tightened on his palms. And ger breathing got uneven, even the slightest touch of his lips with her neck skin, giving loads of butterflies inside her stomach and the cherry on top was his finger was continuously making circles near her belly button over the fabric.

She never knew, he had noticed her before. She didn't even have the slightest idea of how he noticed her that day, when she herself forgot what she wore.

She was feeling emotional, her eyes became teary and a lone tear rolled down from her eyes, followed by her cheeks, then landed on his palm back. Her head hung low.

When he realised she was crying, he turned her face towards him and cupped her cheeks.

“What is this? Why are you crying?”

“I don't know. But no one have ever mentioned my value in their life” She mumbled, still looking at the floor, when Ayaan kissed her forehead and she hugged him tight.

“Just be with me Ayaan. I don't want anything else. I have lost everything since birth. I just do not want to leave you and this family. You all meant everything to me” Ishani mumbled, keeping her head in its favourite place, near his heart, to listen to its favourite rhythm, his heartbeat.

Ayaan wrapped his arms around her protectively and kept his head over her.

“You meant so much to me. I'll never think of leaving you” he kissed her hair and she smiled with tears.

They stayed there in the backside garden of the guest house for some moments, until Ayaan's phone started ringing and he looked at the caller id.

“Let's go inside, the party has begun. Bhai is calling” Ayaan said, caressing her cheeks, and in return Ishani smiled and nodded her head as yes.

They got up and went inside, hand in hand walking together.
