Aaryan's sleep was broken by bangles tinkling with a soft humming of song~

pal bhar na doori sahein aap se
betaabiyaan ye kuch aur hain
hum door hoke bhi paas hain
nazdeekiyan yeh kuch aur hain

dekha hazaaron dafaa aapko
phir beqarari kaisi hai
sambhale sambhalta nahi ye dil
kuch pyar mein baat aisi hai

aagosh mein hain jo aapki
aisa sukoon aur paayen kahan
aankhen humein ye raas aa gayin
ab hum yahaan se jaaye kahaan

dekha hazaaron dafaa aapko
phir beqarari kaisi hai
sambhale sambh---- Barkha stopped singing as she turned & saw Aaryan watching her with a soft look in his eyes & there the naughtiness of Barkha emerged. Seeing playful look in her eyes Aaryan was confused but confusion seems blurring as he saw Barkha coming toward him.
Barkha reached till the corner of bed where Aaryan layed & bent toward his body maintaing the eye contact & slight smirk on her face.

Kkkyaaa..... Aaryan's voice literally shuttered while Barkha cut off him and continued her unfinished song ~
"Sambhale sambhalta nahi ye dil
Kuch aap mein baat aisi hai" and chastely kissed his left cheeks, keeping her lips lingering there for a minute or two. "The first kiss of them"

Barkha brought her face at a quite distance from his now watching her 1 week old husband closed eyes, slight pink ears, holding his breathe. His trance was broken by her soft voice "breathe husband" , he opened his eyes & saw his beautiful wife wearing a lavender coloured floral anarkali suit with beautiful baby pink bangles, sindhoor on hair partion, mangalsutra adorned her neck & oxidised heavy jhumka's, face devoid of any makeup with eye lighner & nude lipstick, her shoulder length curly brownish hair which were currently made into bun leaving small baby hair coming on her face as wind blows looking absolutely adorable.
She brought the coffee mug to him from side table and gave him wishing Good morning.

He replied "morning" with a small shy smile on his face making Barkha smile into a full blown now and left to washroom after finishing his coffee, getting ready for office.

It was now a week they got married. Janki Dutta is no more. She died four days before as her condition worsened & doctors clearly told that it's now up to her body & God that how much she'll live. She died peacefully seeing her grandson married & her son's happy in their family. However much bad child became, money minded or selfish but in a mother heart they are still a child that she keep 9 months in her womb.

Marriage was very simple in the presence of family members & closed friend ones.
Aaryan & Barkha met before 1 month of their marriage with their family members. Aaryan being the shy person didn't spoken much just about his work & responded formally to the questions asked as if he is giving interview of to placement companies. But his mood changed as soon as Barkha arrived. Barkha being always compared to her mother by all relatives & friends that how she is less pretty & so on made her feel insecure about herself but damn she'll feel most secure seeing herself from someone's eyes who is continuously gazing her as if she'll disappear if he'll close his eyes. Her being 5'2", Black swan eyes, neither too slim nor fat, curve at perfect place, shoulder length brownish  curly hair which was god gifted, even skin tone with heart shaped pink plump lips, cheeks fuller wearing peach colored suit looked super adorable. His trance broken when his grandma gave compliment to her & she spoke thankyou smiling & damn that voice and smile definitely made his heart skip a beat.
Aaryan & Barkha were told to talk alone so they moved to terrace & sat on the small bench present over there maintaing proper distance between them. It was Barkha who spoke first and thank God for it because the other shy person would definitely take a decade to speak. After few here & there questions Barkha became herself & started contanuosly talking as if he is her old childhood friend making Aaryan realising that if married, then she'll not let him bore in future and will make their house lively.
"You are single na? Pakka pakka wala and there is no scene of you being in love of your past girlfriend who cheated on you and you're taking revenge on her by getting married with me & you'll make my life hell after marriage & blah blah ------"
Her ranting was broken with a full blown laughter of Aaryan Dutta , he was looking so good while laughing which made his both cheek's dimple very prominent making Barkha stopped her ranting & admiring the man whom she could get married if everything goes well. Aaryan stopped laughing when he felt her gaze and there they both had "eye contact" for the first time after meeting each other. Eyes did all the talking and It made them realise that they could spent their life together.
Aaryan finally shifted his gaze from her to a flower pot & told "No definitely not and I'm getting married because my grandma wishes me to get married & moreover I also feel the need of getting settled now. Btw Do you watch too much movies?"
"No I'm more of a book person rather than movie one" replied Barkha & asked "You?"
Aaryan coughed listening the question & answered "no".

They were called by their family after few mins in the living room. Dutta exited Shrivastava home after snacks & all. After 2 days Janki called Shrivastava telling them yes from their side & asking about the other side as well. Listening positive response Janki became so happy , she loved Barkha for her puttu , meeting her made Janki realise that she is soft yet strong headed person who knows to fight for her rights and she would be perfect for her too kind Grandson. Marriage was done very simply respecting bride & groom's wishes as they both wanted a private marriage in which they could be more of themselves. Barkha's vidai was also not too much emotional as her parents more thought her marriage as of a responsibility that's it and rest is history itself.

Aryan wanted her to do welcome rituals in their panthouse rather than Dutta mension as he didn't consider it as his home and didn't feel the connection from that house. He whenever visited then Just his parents room & dadi's room that's it. Janki agreed on his view. So after marriage they both went to Aaryan's penthouse which now belongs to both. Janki was admitted in a hospital again after coming from marriage & there she died after two days.

Aaryan was busy coping from his beloved pumpkin death & wasn't able to have a proper talk let alone spending time with his newly wedded wife.

Aryan came to kitchen after getting ready for office, saw Barkha almost done cooking the breakfast & was packing his lunch.

Standing near her , taking her palm in his hand caressing the upper part said "you know you don't have to do , you are my wife my life partner not my servant, I can cook for both of us & if you want then whenever you feel like we both can cook, I'm sorry that I totally avoided you after marriage in this unknown house for you. As you being newly wedded wife it was my responsibility to make our house known for you , I was too much in pain that I completely ignored you  & I'm definitely not justifying my actions. I am extremely sorry Barkha & thankyou for being understanding in this entire situation."

Barkha in return take his hand in hers & replied "agar main nahi samjhungi to kya gaav vale aake samjhenge & moreover I know how much you love your grandmother & seeing her leaving this world was undoubtedly so tough for you so you don't have to be sorry and as much as if it's about us then we have entire life right!.. & Trust me Aaryan she would be happy whenever she is watching you happy so please try to be happy."

"& Moreover Mr Dutta if you want then Aaj ki shaam, humare naam! jahan do cup ki pyali ho aur sundar sa sunset? Kya kehte hain"

Aaryan chuckled listening his super adorable wife controlling his urge of punching her cheeks replied "ji mrs Dutta"

They did breakfast together & Aaryan left for his office taking his lunch for the very first time and not before bidding bye to her & making sure that she can call whenever needed as she'll stay home because she have closed her art gallery for two weeks wanting to have some rest & space.
