The sun's rays through the window disturbed her sleep. She yawned, rubbing her eyes and looked at the watch. She woke up with a jolt when she saw it was already 7:50 am.

Oh God, how can I sleep so long?

But wait a minute...how come I am here? We were watching that movie, then how .....

"Niya, just go and prepare breakfast for Aryan. Or else he will become a volcano ready to erupt on you," she said to herself.

She hurriedly got up from the bed and ran to the bathroom.

I just hope he doesn't get angry.

She brushed her teeth in a hurry and ran downstairs.

"Sorry, I am late. Just wait for five minutes, I will get your breakfast ready," she apologised as she saw Aryan on the dining table.

"You have only five minutes. Be quick," he said in a plain tone.

She ran to the kitchen, made omelette and coffee fast, and taking them she ran to the dining table.

"You took ten minutes," Aryan said seeing her coming to the dinning table.

"Why didn't you wake me up?" She asked while putting an omelette into a bread.

"You should wake up on time," he said, taking a sip of coffee.

Niya just rolled her eyes, taking a seat in front of him.

"By the way, how did I reach my room when we were watching that movie?" She asked, thinking may be he knows the answer.

Aryan chuckled. "Seriously! Were you watching that movie?"

She furrowed. "Yes, I was. Why are you asking this?"

"Because, as much as I know, you were sleeping on my shoulder."

Her eyes widened like soccer.

Aryan tried to hide his smile while looking at her face.

"I slept on your shoulder?"

He nodded.

"Oh, I am so sorry. I didn't realise when I fell asleep on your shoulder."

He smiled.

She also smiled, looking at his smiling face.

"You know you have a beautiful smile," she complimented him.

See, God has given him a beautiful smile, but most of the time he only shows me his poker face.

Listening to her compliment, his smile dropped.

"Go and do your work," he ordered.

Can't he just say thank you? Only putting order.

She sighed sadly and went to the garden to water the plants.

She closed her eyes, inhaling the fragrance of the beautiful flowers.

"I feel like I am in heaven," she mumbled.

She opened her eyes when she heard her phone ringing in her pocket.

She smiled, looking at the ID.

"Hello, bro," she chirped happily.

Neil laughed while listening to her voice. "Hello, my beautiful sister."

Suddenly, the words of Arya and his friends echoed in her ears. Since she got married to Aryan, she has only heard not being beautiful from them.
