After having dinner, Rehaan layed on bed , Nadhya got confused. "Yeh toh hamara kaksh hai" Nadhya mumbled to herself. But Rehaan listened it and chuckled.

"Begum, Shauhar aur Biwi ek hi kamre me rehte hai" Rehaan answered her question. Nadhya gulped. "Toh hum kaha vishraam karenge" Nadhya asked while glaring. Rehaan smirked.

"Yehi aa jayiye bahut jagah hai yaha" Rehaan replied with smirk. "Agar apke dimag kuch esa vesa chal reha hai toh dhyaan rakhiye ki hum esa kuch v nahi karenge" Nadhya said in authoritative tone.

Rehaan's smirked widened and he reaches to Nadhya. "Esa Vesa kya Begum?" He asked acted like he didn't understand. Nadhya looked away. "Hume nahi pta" she said while going to bed.

Rehaan was enjoying teasing her. He dramatically gasped , Nadhya looked at him. "Chi chi Begum, apka dimaag bahut hi ganda hai" Rehaan said dramatically.

Nadhya tried to explain but Rehaan burst out in laughter. Nadhya understood he was just teasing her. Nadhya threw pillow at him. "Aap bahut bure hai" Nadhya said.

"Sab jaan te hai yeh" Rehaan told casually. Rehaan layed on his side and tries to sleep but Nadhya was sitting there. "So jaye Begum ya kuch esa vesa karna hai" Rehaan asked while smirking. Nadhya immediately layed and pretending to sleep. Rehaan chuckled.

They slept. Nadhya had habit to sleep while snuggling in pillow ,so in night she snuggled unconsciously in Rehaan. Her on leg is on Rehaan and  hand on his chest. Rehaan smiled and pulled her more closer. He pecked her head and slept.

Rehaan never felt so comfortable in his life. He usually woke up 4 am. But that day he slept for late.

Saahir and Asim was standing out. "Hum bhaijaan ko nahi uthayege. Hume apni zindagi pyaari hai" Asim dramatically mumbled to Saahir.

"Hum yaha se kooj karne me deri nahi kar sakte" Saahir sighed. "Aree pakka Bhaijaan araam farma rehe honge. Thak gye honge" Asim smirked.

Saahir glared. Asim cleared his throat.

Meanwhile

Nadhya also slept for so long today. She slowly rubbed her eyes when sunrays hitted her face.

She opened her eyes and she saw Rehaan's face closer to her. Her eyes widened. She immediately realised that she was snuggling into him. She scolded herself mentally. But soon her gaze again went to Rehaan's face who was sleeping peacefully.

Some of his hair was on his face, unknowingly smiled crept on Nadhya's face. "Sote huye kitne shant lagte hai aap" Nadhya rubbed his cheek.

Actually Rehaan already woke up when Nadhya got up. As little hustle can make him out of sleep. He was conscious sleeper.

Rehaan immediately opened his eyes. Nadhya flinched. She immediately tried to take her hand back but Rehaan hold it.

"Begum". Rehaan's morning voice made Nadhya shivered to the core. " J-Ji" Nadhya scolded herself mentally for stuttering.

"Hume vilamb ho gya hai" Nadhya said, tried change the topic to overcome this awkward situation.

Rehaan noticed that he was late. He wondered, how did he sleep for such a long time.

Rehaan hummed. Nadhya woke up and immediately went to bathroom. Rehaan chuckled. He rubbed his eyes and streched himself.

He went out. He was Saahir and Asim were arguing over something. "Kya baat hai Saahir?".

They startled hearing Rehaan's voice. Saahir cleared his throat. "Voh hum aapko bulane k liye hi aa rehe the, hume yaha se koonj karna chahiye varna Agra pahuchne me der ho jayegi" Saahir explained.

Rehaan nodded. "Bhaijaan aap bahut thake huye lag rehe hai" Asim smirked.

But he got glared by Rehaan as well as Saahir. Asim immediately went away. "Aap kooj apne ki tayari kijiye, hum abhi aate hai" Rehaan told.

Saahir nodded and left. Rehaan went to his tent. He was waiting for Nadhya. As he was already ready and took shower in other bathroom.

"Begum kabb tak tyaar hogi, hume der ho rehi hai" Rehaan questioned.

"Bas ek shan aur" Nadhya answered. "Aap Aurto ko itna waqat kyu lagta hai" Rehaan groaned.

Nadhya got offended. "Kyuki hum khaas hote hai, apki tarah nahi. Hume bahut kuchh pehna padta hai" Nadhya rolled her eyes.

"Begum hum sab samjh gye. Hume maaf kijiye ki humne apko jaldi karne ko keha. Aap araam se teen chaar saal lijiye tyaar hone ko" Rehaan chuckled.

Nadhya was already frustrated because she was struggling to wear her payal by her own. Rehaan noticed it and marched to her.

He took payal from her hand and knelt down in front of her. He took her feet on his knee and made her wear payal.

Nadhya was so fluttered. "Aap aese humare samne ghootne par na bethe" Nadhya mumbled.

Rehaan smiled. "Aapke liye toh hum apna sirr (head) katwa kar apke kadmo me rakh sakte hai, aap ek baar hukum toh dijiye" Rehaan said those words. His tone was serious which showing his emotions.

Nadhya felt some weird gush of feeling by his words. "C-Chaliye hum tyaar hai" Nadhya told.

Rehaan checked her out. Rehaan pecked her forehead. "Mashallah, bahut khoobsurat hai aap. Khuda ne aapko bade imtemaam se banaya hai".

Nadhya got flustered. Her cheeks turned into red. Rehaan noticed and chuckled. " Chaliye begum, apne ghar chale."

He hold Nadhya's hand protectively and went out.

2 days later they reached to Agra.

Rehaan strictly ordered to everyone to make sure no one can ruin Nadhya's welcome because he already had idea of what can happen.

They reached at Agra. They entered into Mahal. "Rukiye bhabhijaan" Mahira and Asim stopped Nadhya.

Rehaan was going to say something when Mahira cutted him in between "Bhaijaan rasam karni hai. Bhabhijaan ka Greh parvesh".

Nadhya was touched as she didn't expect any rasam like this as she knew that Rehaan's traditions and customs were different.

Mahira kept the bowl full of rice. "Bhabhijaan" Mahira signalled Nadhya to kick the bowl. Nadhya did it.

Unknowingly there was wide smile on Nadhya's face which didn't go unnoticed by Rehaan.

Then Mahira kept the big plate of red substance (made with sindoor, water and a little bit of milk)

Mahira kept the white cloth near Nadhya's feet. Nadhya did the Rasam by imprinting her feet on white cloth.

Mahira smiled. "Susawagatam Bhabhi Sa" Mahira spoke Nadhya's language. Nadhya widely smiled.

Nadhya hugged Mahira without any hesitation.

While breaking hug, Nadhya felt dizzy and she was going to fell down when Rehaan caught her.

Everything went black and Nadhya fall unconscious.
