Perfect Together :) {COMPLETED}

6 months

6 months is a long time. Especially for those who grow together, learn about each other, and explore new journeys of life.

It was Shiva and Raavi's 6 month anniversary. 6 months since they had been married. In these 6 months, they fought, argued, worked out their problems, fell in love and adjusted around each other.

Nothing was perfect. Shiva snored like a bull, Raavi slept like a starfish. He'd leave the towel on the bed, she forget to dry her clothes.

But it was pure bliss. It didn't have to be perfect to be together. That, is growth.

Now, a 6 month anniversary isn't a special occasion for most married couples. But it was a big deal for them.

Today had to be special.

"Good morning!" Shiva said, as he set down the tea cups on the table.

"Itne dino baad Shiva ki haath ki chai? Aaj kya hua? Roj roj aise help karega toh Raavi ko bhi aaram milega na." Gautam smiled.

"Aaj mai bada khush hu." Shiva announced.

"Kyu? Aaj kya hai?" Raavi sipped her coffee, and stopped midway to look at Shiva.

It's as if they were communicating through their eyes.

They looked at each other and blushed. Everyone around them were just looking between them.

"Aaj toh kisika birthday bhi nahi hai, anniversary bhi nahi hai. Toh aaj kya hai?" Rishita asked, confused.

Maybe 6 months wasn't a huge deal for the couple in love since the beginning. But it was for the couple who were at each other's necks.

"Raavi, tu aaj mami ke ghar jaane waali thi na?" Shiva asked, trying not to arouse suspicion.

But, Raavi was smarter. She squinted at him, "Haa, par tu mujhe bhejne ke liye itna utaawla kyu ho raha hai? Chakkar chal raha hai kya tera?" She joked.

"Mereko chakkar chalana hota toh mai bahar jaata, usse ghar pe nahi laata, pagal." Shiva shook his head, "Yeh ek baat ko idhar se udhar le jaana koi tumse seekhe."

"Zyaada zubaan mat chala aaj ke din." Raavi retorted.

"Hum abhi bhi yahi hai koi batayega aaj kya hai?" Krish joked.

"Krish chod na, inke beech ki baat hogi." Dhara winked. "Waise, hum sab aaj bahar jaa rahe hai, tum dono ko aana hai?"

"Nahi. Aap log jaao." Shiva and Raavi replied too quickly. They got up and ran in opposite directions.

"Dev, Rishita, tumhe kahi nahi jaana?" Dhara asked. "Kyuki ghar toh aaj khaali rakhna padega"

"Par kyu? Aaj-" Dev began, but stood with eyes open. "6 mahine." He slapped his forehead.

"Oh no! Mujhe toh yaad hi nahi tha! Dev, hum kahi dinner pe chalte hai na, like a one night stay in a hotel." Rishita pleaded. "Waise bhi ghar ke bahar jaana will be a good idea. Hume toh 1 year anniversary more important hai, but 6 months bhi chota sa milestone hai." She said, hugging Dev's arm.

"Issi bahane, mai night out ke liye permission maang lu? Kabse plan kar rahe the." Krish requested.

"Chalo theek hai, enjoy karle Krish, mai aur gombi farmhouse chale jaayenge. Woh Shiva me mujhe bohot din pehle se puch raha tha ki aaj ghar khaali hoga ya nahi. Mujhe yaad hi nahi aaya..." Dhara smiled and shook her head.

"Sab ghar khaali karne ki tayyari mein lago. Humare Shiva bade ho gaye aaj." Krish said, followed by a slap to his head by Gautam.
