Akshara Birla giggled in the passenger seat as she stared at her handsome but irritated husband. Despite the fact that they had been married for almost a year now, he still hadn't warmed up to the poor intern she had invited to her music therapy sessions during the Christmas party last year.

Today, they had attended another party held for the hospital staff and seeing the intern happily conversing with his Akshu had brought up past memories he'd rather not remember.

"Acha baba suno toh!" She tried again only to be met with the same silence she had been dealing with for the last 10 minutes. She smiled and shook her head. It was funny to her that even though he knew she loved him more than her life, he still sometimes got jealous.

What was funnier was that she was exactly the same. Both could not stand anyone even looking at the other which was only natural after coming so close to losing each other so many times.

"Abhiiiiii!" She whined as she grabbed his hand, holding it firmly on her lap. Abhimanyu, now driving with only one hand, turned to glare at her before quickly returning his gaze to the road.

"Oh hello! Main tumhari koi intern nahi hu joh tumhare yeh badi badi aankhen dekh ke dar jaungi!" she teased. She placed her elbow on the console between them and rested her chin on that hand while still tightly holding his hand with her other one.

"Kehte hai na jab pyar kiya toh darna kya?" She sang the filmy dialogue. Her smile widened as she noticed the tiny twitch of his lips. Just as she was about to try another cheesy line, the car started to sputter and jerk before coming to a complete stop on the dark, isolated road.

Abhiymanyu and Akshara looked at each other wide eyed and then Akshara could no longer hold in her laughter. "Tum.. tumhare kharab mood ko dekh kar ghadi bhi kharab ho gayi!"

Abhimanyu shook his head at the crazy girl he had the luck to call his wife. Her laughter was the cure to his every pain, his every terrible mood. Finally seeing him smiling again, Akshara squealed in happiness, leaned over and dropped a surprise kiss on his cheek.

"Tumhara mood toh thik hua ab ghadi bhi thik kardo warna yahi phaas jayenge aur lagta hai baarish bhi hone wali hai!" Akshara ordered looking at the dark cloudy sky.

"Jo hukum meri jaan," replied Abhimanyu before leaving the car and heading towards the engine.

Akshara looked out the window just in time to see the first drops of rain rolling down her window. She giggled knowing her chirkuram of a husband didn't like the rain very much. Suddenly she decided to give him a reason to love this magical weather as much as she did.

Attaching her phone to the car, she carefully selected a song before quietly sneaking out the car.

Abhimanyu scratched his head unable to figure out what had caused the car to stop. Suddenly hearing the sound of thunder play loudly from his car, he slammed the bonnet and was instantly worried seeing the car empty.

Barish mein nikal ne ki kya zaroorat pad gaye Akshu ko? Bimar pad gaye toh?!

Running to the side, he froze, stunned, as he caught his beautiful wife spinning in slow circles arms out, saree completely soaked. All logical thought left his mind as he leaned against his car, mesmerized at the sight. Akshara, in a light pink saree, spinning and playing in the rain would be ingrained in his memory forever.

Noticing she finally had his attention, Akshara smile as she walked towards him slowly. Leaning on the car right in front of him, never once dropping eye contact she tilted her head and she sang along with the song.

Yeh saazish hai boondon ki
Koi khwaish hai chup chup si
Yeh saazish hai boondon ki
Koi khwaish hai chup chup si

With only inches between them, Akshara  signalled at to look at their surroundings.

Dekho na Dekho na
Dekho na Dekho na

Abhimanyu trailed a hand softly down her shoulder and pulled her by the hand as he walked backwards. He spun her once before catching her hand again.

Hawa kuch haule haula
Zubaan se kya kuch bole
Kyun doori hai ab darmiyaan
Dekho na Dekho na
Dekho na Dekho na

Spinning her into his arms this time, they began to dance in the rain, enjoying this precious time together.

Rhimjim Rhimjim sananana
Rhimjim Rhimjim sananana
Rhimjim Rhimjim sananana

Seeing him inch closer, the butterflies in her stomach multiplied and her cheeks blazed. Pushing him slightly she turned and ran only to be stopped by a tug at her pallu.

Abhimanyu, holding her pallu slowly began pulling her back to him.

Phir na hawai honge itni besharam
Phir na dagmag dagmag honge yeh kadam
Haye..

Akshara kept walking backwards until her almost bare back hit his chest, Abhimanyu slid his hand across her tiny waist and held her close, both lost in each other.

Phir na hawai honge itni besharam
Phir na dagmag dagmag honge yeh kadam

Akshara smiled shyly and ran away again. This time climbing a bench, she sent him a challenging look before winking at him. Then turning around she closed her eyes and spread her arms out before confidently free falling backwards.

Hoooo Sawan yeh seedha naye
Khufiyaan bada
Kuch toh baraste hui keh rahaaa

Abhimanyu's heart pounded as he ran to her. Reaching just in time to catch her bridal style. He glared at her for scaring him.

Samjho na Samjho na
Samjho na Samjho na

Akshara spread her arms again as Abhimanyu spun still holding her. She then wrapped her one arm around his neck and pulled his face to look at her.

Hawa kuch haule haula
Zubaan se kya kuch bole
Kyun doori hai ab darmiyaan
Dekho na Dekho na
Dekho na Dekho na

Freeing herself, she danced in circles around him as he watched her very move. She stopped just behind him and leaned her back against his.

Jugnu chaisi chahat dekho jale bhuje
Meethi si mushkil hai koi kya kare?

Turning, she held his hand before leaning backwards.

Jugnu chaisi chahat dekho jale bhuje
Meethi si mushkil hai koi kya kare?

Abhimanyu pulled her up and into his arms again. Forehead to forehead, he nuzzled his nose to hers.

Hothon ki aarzi aise thukrao na
Saason ki marzi ko jhutlao na

With a shy smile, she wrapped her one arm around his neck and caressed his check with her hand.

Chu lo naa
Chu lo na
Chu lo naaaa
Chu loo

Abhimanyu shook his head and smiled at his Akshu. Leaning down he picked her up in his arms and walked back to the car. Placing her in her seat and ensuring her seat belt was on, he leaned forward and placed a kiss on her forehead.

Hawa kuch haule haula
Zubaan se kya kuch bole
Na doori hai ab darmiyaan
Dekho na Dekho na
Dekho na Dekho na
Dekho na dekho na

Just as he was about to leave, Akshara pulled his tie making him almost fall over her.

"I love you Dr. Abhimanyu Birla, tum ho toh main hu, is liye kisi aur ke bhare mein soch kar apna mood kabhi kharab mat karna." Making sure to place extra emphasis on"you". And then leaning forward she finally connected her lips to his in a soft, romantic kiss.

Dekho naaaa
