"Arghh! Why the hell is her room on the third floor?" Veer groaned exhaustedly while climbing into the balcony attached with Bani's room in the Rajput's bungalow. He panted heavily and dusted his clothes while slowly sneaking into her room. "How careless is she? She just left the door unlocked." He sighed disappointedly as he opened the balcony door easily. He thought to knock it if she had locked it.
He walked into the room to see her sleeping peacefully while hugging a huge teddy bear securely in her arms.
Awww how cute! My little baby girl.
After admiring her for a good 10 minutes, he finally decided to climb on the bed without making any sound and hovered over her. He stared at her being amused as she was still in slumber even after he pressed his body weight on her. "Sweetheart, wake up." He whispered, moving the loose hair strands from her face whereas Bani, who was in deep sleep just smiled hearing his voice and tried to turn to snuggle more into her teddy bear.
She frowned when something was stopping her from moving and slowly opened her eyes with a soft groan. The moment she opened her eyes, they popped out of their sockets seeing Veer's grinning face there and let out a loud scream to which he instantly clamped his hand over her mouth to stop her. "Shhhh baby girl don't shout. It's me." He whispered and Bani nodded at him while blinking her eyes rapidly.
He slowly removed his hand from her mouth and she breathed a sigh of relief but soon that relief was replaced with panic when she realised that he was there in front of her in her own room. "What the hell are you doing here? How did you get into my room? What's the time now and why did you--" Before she could continue her rambling, he interrupted her by placing his palm on her mouth again.
"Happy 18th Birthday, my precious princess." He wished her, pecking on her forehead and Bani gave him a shy smile with her cheeks heating up.
"Don't call me princess. Only my brothers are allowed to call me that." She said, making Veer roll his eyes.
"I'm the one who climbed 3 floors of this huge bungalow through the drainpipe at 12 in the midnight to wish you on your birthday, not your brothers."
"But still you can't call me princess." She mumbled, making him frown at her.
Veer stared at her for few seconds and sighed exasperatedly. "Okay Jaanu, I won't call yo...Ouch!" He grumbled in pain when a punch landed on his jaw.
"How dare you call me Jaanvi!!! Did you forget my name, you moron? I'm Bani, not Jaanvi!" Bani growled, pushing him away with such a force that made him fall back on the bed beside her.
"Oh God! Sweetheart, I said Jaanu not Jaanvi." He said, sitting up on the bed.
"Jaanu? Is it a nickname for that witch?" She asked again, glaring at him and Veer shook his head.
