SHIVI: Tum Tak💫

6.Care✨

Next Day, Shiva woke up first. They were sleeping in the same postion, their legs were interwined and both were holding each other very tightly. He stood up very carefully as he didn't wanted to disturb Raavi. He turned to go but felt someone holding his hand, he turned back and saw Raavi was holding his hand.

"Thodi der aur sojaana..." Raavi said in her sleep.

"Tujhe kaha utha raha hu tu toh sojaa..." Shiva said.

"Tera bina nind ni aayegi..." Raavi said in her sleep.

Shiva just smiled and layed beside her. He took her into his embrace and kept his chin on her head. Raavi holded him more tightly. Raavi slept peacefully in his arms. But Shiva was not able to sleep cuz already it was late and he never sleeps too much. After sometime, Raavi woke up. Shiva had just closed his eyes but was not sleeping. Raavi smiled seeing their position. She kissed Shiva's cheek to which Shiva opened his eyes and smiled to her. She got shy and hided her face in his chest.

"Raavi..." Shiva called her lovingly.

"Hmm..." She also replied lovingly in the same postion.

"Tu Karwachauth ka vrath rakhegi?" Shiva asked her.

"Ofc..." Raavi replied.

"Par kyu?" Shiva asked her.

"Kyu mtlb? Har wife apne husband ki lambi umr ke liye ye vrat rakhti hai..." She said.

"Tu chahti hai mai zyada jeeyu?" Shiva asked her.

"Uff... Shiva ye kaisi baate kar raha hai tu subah subah?" Raavi said annoyingly.

"Raavi mera mtlb yeh hai ki koi force nahi ki tu mere liye vrat rakhe, waise bhi hum mai koi bhi pati patni jaisa rishta hai hi nahi ki tujhe mere liye vrat rakhna pade, na humare bich pyaar hai aur na hi kuch aur..." Shiva said sadly.

Raavi got a little hurt by his words. They weren't husband and wife? Did they both not cared about each other? Was there no love/no care/no respect between them? A lone tear escaped from her eyes.

"Kisne kaha Shiva humare bich pati patni jaisa rishta nahi hai? Dekh kaise pakad kar so raha hai mujhko ki kahi bhaag na jaau mai!!" Raavi said.

Just then Shiva realised their position and left her and sat on the bed.

"Voh... Mai...woh..." Shiva was stammering as he was out of words.

Raavi kept her finger on his lips.

"Shh... Shiva, ek rishte mai sirf pyaar hi imp nahi hota, respect, care, trust sab imp hota hai, aur ye pura somnath jaanta hai ki tu meri aur mai teri kitni care karti hu, tu mujhpe kitna trust karta hai, jo baate tere baare mai kisiko nahi pta wo mai jaanti hu aur mai bhi tujhpe kitna trust karti hu Shiva, aajtak mai tere alwa kisi bhi ladke ke itna close nahi aayi hu aur na hi kabhi kisi aur ke close aane ka soch skti hu, aur ek rishte mai sabse jyda important kuch hota hai toh woh hai LOYALTY aur wo toh tujhme kut kut ke bhari hai, tu mere alawa kisi aur ko toh kya, mujhe tak dhang se nahi dekhta, aur kya chaiye ek rishte mai Shiva? Pyaar na?! Woh toh dheere dheere ho hi jaayeyga... Aur waise bhi ye vrat mai apni Khushi se rakh rahi hu kyuki I cannot imagine myself without you Shiva!! Tu hai toh mai hu..." She just poured her heart out and stood up. She took her clothes from cupboard and went to bath.

"Kitna gadheda hai tu Shiva, wo teri itni kadr karti hai aur tu usse samajta hi nahi hai! Mujhe nahi pta tha ye Chipkali itni samajdaar hai!! Ab agr ye mere liye vrat rakh rahi hai toh mai bhi iske liye vrat rakhunga!! Kyuki Raavi ke bina Shiva ni!! Us khandar wale kaand ke din laga tha ki maine tujhe kho diya, aur us din jab tu bike se geeri thi toh lga mujhme se jaan chali gyi, ab ye baat toh pakki hai iske saath reh saku ya na reh saku, iske bina toh nahi reh skta mai!! Lekin Shiva tu vrat rakhega kaise? Tujhe toh har aadhe gante mai bukh lgti hai, aur agr tu 2-3 gante bukha reh gya toh chakkar aana pakke hai!! Lekin nahi agr ye sukdi hui chipkali vrat rakh skti hai toh ye hata katta bandar bhi vrat rakhega!! Bus kisi ko pta nahi chalna chaiye, aur is chipkali ko toh bilkul bhi nahi...!!" He said to himself and stood up to go out.

That day passed out like this, they both didn't talked very much but ya stealed glances of each other whenever they got a chance. At night, when Raavi and other ladies with the men too were having food. (jo vrat ke ek din phele khaaya jaata hai, raatko, Idk what's it called!)

"Aaja Shiva tu bhi khaa le!!" Dhara called him.

"Rehne do bhabhi, wo konsa Gaumbhi aur Dev ki tarah apni patni ke liye vrat rakh raha hai!!" Krish said.

Raavi got hurt by listening this. Everyone was keeping vrat for their better half, even the males except Shiva. But she didn't said anything.

"Vrat nahi rakh raha hai toh kya hogaya, kha toh sakta hi hai, aaja mera bacha!!" Dhara called him.

Shiva without any argument went to eat because deep down only he knew that he was going to keep fast for that Chipkali but Shiva is toh Shiva he don't like to show off his care, he likes to do things unknowingly, so he doesn't want to tell anyone about his fast.

After having the food, everyone goes to sleep in their respective room. Raavi doesn't talk to Shiva cuz she's a little hurt. Raavi was removing her jewellery in front of the mirror but was not able to remove one of her earrings.

"Mai karu?" Shiva asked from the bed.

"Koi zarurat nahi hai!!" Raavi said angrily.

Shiva understood that she was angry with him but didn't said anything. After some more time, Raavi started talking with herself.

"Hai Somnath!! Yaha toh kisiko meri fikr hi nahi hai, buss khao piyo aur so jao, khaana bhi mai banau, baaki kaam bhi mai karu aur ye jewellery bhi mai hatau jo kabse nikal hi nahi rahi hai...".

Shiva heard her nuisance. Without even uttering a word, he went to help Raavi. He slowly removed her jewellery and then her duppata and picked her up in bridal style. He layed her on the bed and covered her with a blanket.

"Bus Tera saara kaam kar diya, ab soja..." He said to her.

She just smiled and closed her eyes. Shiva turned to go away but Raavi called her from the back.

"Tu kuch bhul raha hai..."

"Kya?" Shiva turned towards her.

She pointed towards her cheeks, yup she wanted a kiss from Shiva, it had become like a daily routine to get pecked by him or peck him on his cheeks. Shiva slowly came near her, her heartbeats started increasing, but Shiva didn't went to her cheeks, rather he pecked her lips softly. Raavi got startled by his action and didn't reacted for sometime. She widely opened her eyes in shock, but it was too late, Shiva had already slept on his side. She just blushed and drifted to sleep.
