The rising sun cast a rosy hue across the morning sky. Golden fingers of sunlight lit up the scene.
As the morning sun gently bathed the room in a soft, golden glow, she awakened to find him beside her. Rubbing both of her eyes she woke up ever so cutely with a warm, affectionate smile, she observed his peaceful slumber. The lines of worry and fatigue from the previous day had faded, leaving him looking vulnerable and endearing in his sleep.

"Agar ye kal meko nahi bachate toh mera.....!" Shehnaaz speaks to herself , her fingers delicately brushed a strand of hair from his forehead, and she couldn't help but admire the way his face relaxed in the tranquility of the moment. The tenderness in her gaze spoke volumes of the love and affection she held for him, a silent acknowledgment of the profound connection they shared as they both greeted the new day.

Feeling a little wet on his forehead Sidharth suddenly wakes up with eyes still heavy from a peaceful night's rest, he stretched his toned, athletic frame, each movement revealing the strength that lay beneath his chiseled features. Not realizing where he was, his eyes suddenly captures an enchanting damsel (a beautiful girl).

Sidharth's POV :

"Oh god!" She had just woken up, and in that moment, she appeared effortlessly beautiful. Her tousled hair framed her face like a halo, and the sleepiness in her eyes only added to her charm.I can't help but admire her face like I have never ever watched a woman before.

He watched her with a fondness that filled his heart, appreciating the way she stretched and yawned, entirely at ease in her own skin. There was an undeniable allure in her morning vulnerability, and he felt a deep admiration for the girl who had captured his heart, even in those unguarded moments.

"Good Morning !" Shehnaaz said with a smile and a slightly blushing face breaking his trance of thoughts.

All of a sudden Sidharth remembers what he was doing , ofcourse he was not a person to admire and gaze someone shamelessly. He comes out of his deep absorption of thoughts and replies, "Morning" in a stern voice which makes Shehnaaz think about yesterday how he cared for her at the moment when she was helpless and could not stop crying thinking about the incident that happened that night .

"Inko kya hogaya kal toh kitne aache se baat kar rahe the aaj pata nahi itna rude rude sa morning kyun bol rahe hain " Shehnaaz says to herself .

" Chod tu bhi kya soch rahi hai , subah hai mood thoda grumpy toh ho hi jata hai sabka " Shehnaaz says convincing herself for his unknown change in tone.

"Haaye mai aapko kal thank you bhi nahi bol paayi I am sorry , par koi na aaj boldeti hun mai konsa bina thank you bole jaa rahi hun haina ? Shehnaaz says to Sidharth in a joking way .

Whereas Sidharth replies putting up a stern face, "It's alright !".

"OHHHH MMYYY GOD " Shehnaaz suddenly shouts making Sidharth frightened.

"Kya hua ? Everything Alright ? Sidharth asks in a concerned way as he thought something happened to her at the moment.

To which she replied with a cute pout," ye bachne bachane ke chakkar mei mai aapka naam poochna toh bhool hi gayi ! Chalo mai aapko mera introduction deti hun phir aap meko aapna dena. "

"Apna dena? Kya dena hai meko aapna ? " Even though he wanted to be a strict and rude wala bossy kinda figure but he couldn't help it and teased her saying that.

"Arey introduction . Haaye aapka dimaag kahin aur chala gaya meko aisa lagta hai . Mai aapna introduction dungi phir aap meko aapna introduction dena . Thik hai ? " Shehnaaz replied in the most cutest way possible leaving Sidharth spell bound but maintained a rude wala expression infront of her.

" Hello ji ! I am Shehnaaz Kapoor. Log meko pyaar se Sana bulate hain. Aap bhi meko Sana bula sakte hain waise kyunki aapne meko bachaya na kal raat toh isiliye mai aapko ye haq de rahi hun warna ye naam mei kisiko bulane nahi deti hoon ! " Shehnaaz says it in a very proud tone .

"Chalo aab aapki baari hai chetti chetti do aapna introduction..." She says whining like a child eager to know his name.

Sidharth couldn't help but smile a little and replies," I am Sidharth Singhaniya. " still in a stern voice.

"ley ! ye bhi koi introduction huyi ? Maine kitna aacha kitna lamba introduction diya , aapne kitna chota introduction diya hai dekhiye huh ! how rude " Shehnaaz replies in an annoyed way.

Giving no heed to her Sidharth starts to leave the room then suddenly he feels small and delicate hands trying to hold his four fingers struggling to hold the last one looking extremely cute.

" Aapko kya hua hai ? Maine kuch kiya hai kya ? Aap aisa kyun behave kar rahe hain mere saath ? Kal tak toh aap thik the aur aaj ? Kuch hua hai ? Shehnaaz ask Sidharth in a soft voice and with moist eyes.

Seeing her moist eyes Sidharth suddenly realizes how delicate and sensitive she is . How his small change in tone affected her in such a way that her eyes teared up but shrugging his thoughts he replied in a stern voice. " Mujhe kuch nahi hua hai . Mai aisa hi hun. "

"Par aap kal toh aise nahi the mere saath aache se baat kar rahe the aur hug..." before she could speak more Sidharth cut her off and said," Kal joh kuch bhi hua wo bas ek insaaniyat ke naate maine kiya tha tum bohot dar gayi thi toh bas mai tumpe chillake aur tumhe darana nahi chahta tha isiliye maine kal kuch nahi kaha aur tum meri kuch lagti ho nahi. Mai aisa hi hun aur sabse aise hi baat karta hun agar tumhe koi problem hai toh mujhse baat mat karo . SAMJHI?" Saying this Sidharth left the room leaving a hurt Shehnaaz behind who couldn't hold herself anymore but cried endlessly getting inside the blanket.

Shehnaaz's POV :

" God ji ! Maine kya bigara hai kisika mere saath hi aisa kyun hota hai ! Kal ke baad meko laga tha koi toh hai joh meri fikar karta hai koi toh hai joh meri care karta hai par aab aisa lag raha hai jaise kal kuch hua hi nahi tha . Meko koi pasand hi nahi karta , meko koi pyaar hi nahi karta ! " Phele Chachi aab ye bhi aise hogayein ! God ji kyun !??"

"Haaye Chachi se yaad aaya mai kal raat ghar gayi hi nahi hun , aur ek call bhi nahi kiya maine chachi ko woh mujhe aaj bohot maarengi !" and starts crying remembering how she tortures her everytime whenever Shehnaaz comes home late due to her ex office meetings because if she comes late then her chachi will get her dinner a bit late as Shehnaaz has to cook for her everytime and not only cooking but all the household chores even when she works all day and comes home being all drained out !

Remembering this she picks her phone from the side table and sees 10 misscalls from her chachi and she assumes she is going to be dead if she returns home now. But when she unlocks the phone, she sees something which left her speechless and thankful at the same time.
