It has been almost a week since Reyansh and Anaya's meeting, after that day they both didn't meet but their parents stayed in touch discussing the wedding preparations

Reyansh is sitting in the hall working on his laptop, he was engrossed in his work when Ruhi sits opposite to him typing something on her phone and suddenly laughs catching Reyansh's attention

"What's funny in your phone?" He asks casually, looking at her

"I'm talking to your soon to be wife and the funny part is, we're bitching about you" She teases him showing her phone screen to him

Reyansh just rolls his eyes focusing back on his work, suddenly something flicker in his mind he looks up at Ruhi and smirks

"Bring me a glass of water" He says in a bossy tone

"Go to the kitchen and bring yourself" She immediately refuses him

"Oh then let me call Maa and tell her that you're wasting your time on your phone instead of studying" He pretend to be serious as he crosses his arms across his chest

"Blackmailer" She glares at him

"Hurry up" He whistles, smirking

Flaring her nostrils, she put her phone on the table before stomping towards the kitchen

As soon as she gets away from his sight, he quickly takes her phone and copies Anaya's number in his phone and then puts the phone back where it was and gets back to his seat

Anaya returns from the college and she is about to step inside her room when her phone starts buzzing, she takes her phone out from the bag and finds an unknown number flashing across her screen, frowning she picks up the call

"Hello, who's this?" She says in her sweet angel like voice

"This is me Reyansh" Hearing his deep voice the phone is about to slip from her hand but she manages to hold it tightly

"Aa y-yes" She stammers

"Can you meet me today?" He says without beating around the bush

"um to-today?" She hesitates

"Yes today, come in Wasabi restaurant by 6, i'll be waiting for you there"

She exhales deeply "Okay"

"Don't be late" with that he hangs up the phone

"Who was it?" Abhinav's voice comes behind her and she flinches turning to him

"um papa Reyansh wants to meet me today" Anaya tells her father

"You can go" He says softly

She looks at him astonished, as she wasn't expecting it from him

"Can i really go?" She confirms

"Yes you can, now go get ready, don't make him wait"

She nods and quickly gets into her room

She keeps standing sticking to the door for the next few minutes, she is so nervous thinking how will she face him again, last time she could barely speak a word, his presence makes her forget everything, but deep down she also wants to see him again maybe this is how she would know him more

Brushing her thoughts away, she hurries to her wardrobe and chooses a simple dress to wear

Anaya reaches at the restaurant on time and asks for Reyansh's table at the reception, one of the men from the restaurant guides her towards the Vip area and shows her the table where she spots him in the corner busy typing on his phone, she faces his back and for the first time notices his well built body as his muscles are peeking out through his fitted T-shirt
