Ram and priya lay down in each other's arms. He softly runs his fingers in her hair while she rests her head against his chest and feels lost in her own thoughts.

He looks down at her and after about 15 minutes of silence he speaks "Priya?"

"Hmm" she mumbles slowly.

"Why do you feel distant all of a sudden" He mumbles not liking the awkward silence between them which had always been peaceful.

"It'll take some time ram.." She whispers slowly and gets up from the bed.

"Can we go home?" She asks looking at him and he only nods in response. They leave the penthouse and reach home around midnight.

They directly go to their room and priya picks her night gown before moving to the washroom.

Ram on the other hand changes into his T-shirt and tracks and waits for her.

Priya comes out and silently goes and occupies the swing in the verandah, hugging her knees close to her chest.

Ram hates this. Why is she behaving like this!

He goes up to her and says "Jaan why are you being like this? Come let's sleep"

"I'm not sleepy.." She mumbles looking away at the sky.

"But I'm! And I want you next to me.." He says stubbornly.

She doesn't budge and which grows his irritation.

"Priya I want to sleep next to you"

"Ram, I need some space" She now says slowly looking up at him.

"Space? From me?"

Priya sighs.

"Priya.. I don't know what to say right now but.. do... do you.. still love me?" His voice stutters as he speaks with a heavy heart.

She instantly looks up at him and stands up. She cups his face in her hands and sees his teary eyes. Her heart breaks.

"Ram I love you and I'll always love you.. why do you think I don't love you anymore.."

He holds her hands and brings it to his lips, kissing her fingers and palms.

Priya felt her own eyes tearing up.

She removed her hands from his grip and hugged his torso while looking up at him.

"I'll always love only you ram, it's just... you've broken my trust somewhere and it'll take sometime to rebuild it. And I hope you to be truthful to me from now on..."

Ram nods holding her waist "I promise.."

Priya gives him a small smile "See we've already begun working our way back to each other"

Ram smiled and hugged her to his chest tightly "You're the best thing ever happened to me"

After sometime, they lay back on the bed with him holding her close to him while she rested her head just below his neck.

"Jaan I don't want to go for any therapy.. you're my therapy I believe.." He mumbles.

Priya smiles at that "Okay, but if things don't workout, we'll see a therapist okay?"

"Fine" Ram rolls his eyes.

They sleep hoping for everything to be back to normal. But next morning ram insists on dropping priya to the boutique after their breakfast with family.

"Ram, you please go to office, dad is already angry on you for cancelling on meetings yesterday" Priya says checking her purse before zipping it up.

Ram pouted "I don't want to go to office, I want to spend time with you"

Priya looked up at him and sighed "Ram, you're going office and we'll be meeting only after our work okay?"

"Don't you think you're being super bossy since last night?" Ram whined.

"I need to be if you ain't going to visit therapy" Priya shrugged making him mumble things to himself.

"Kuch kaha aapne?" She asked walking closer to him.

"Jee, yahi ki..." he wrapped his arms around her waist and murmured "I'll miss you hell lot"

Priya smiled "I'll miss you too"

He pecked her lips and priya who didn't want any physical intimacy for now, slid her hands around his neck and responded by sucking on his lower lips. They kissed until they were out of breath. She definitely couldn't resist his warm lips and the way he always poured his love for her, into the kisses.

Ram smiled as he broke the kiss and whispered "I love you jaana"

Priya blushed but composed herself and pulled back herself from him.

She picked her purse and Ram said "You didn't say I love you back!"

Priya chuckled shaking her head "i love you too"

"No, now you said it just because I asked you to" Ram complained as they moved out of the room.

"Ram stop behaving like a baby, are you okay? Why are you acting like a baby since morning"

"Because I'm your baby... handle me" He hugged her from behind when they were just about to descend the stairs.

Priya gasped and pushed him back "Anyone can see us and ram... whatever happened yesterday... I think... I mean now that you don't want to go for therapy, I need to handle us. I feel... we must give each other some space.."

"Space? Space as in what space?" Ram asked slowly.

"You need to stop accompanying me everywhere and we need to probably get ourselves into our hobbies..."

"Hobbies? We can join dance or can work out.."

Priya interrupted him with "Ram it's not a 'We'... we're going to be spending time on our respective individual hobbies"

"Are you planning to go away from me?" He asked sternly with a bit of anger.

"No! God! Ram please don't make it complicated. It's just the first day and you're already becoming difficult..." Priya vents frustratedly.

Ram glances at her with anger and hurt and just walks down the stairs quickly while priya called him out "Raaam..."

But he ignored that and walked straight out of the door of the living room.

"What's wrong beta?" Krishnaji asked who was seated on the couch downstairs. Priya descended the stairs and smiled at her mother figure.

"Nothing maa, ram and his mood swings" Priya rolled her eyes which made krishnaji and Natasha chuckle.

"Bhabhi, bhai ke mood swings na girls ke mood swings se bhi battar hai"

The ladies chuckled at that and priya asked Natasha to join her to the studio as the latter had an off today.

Once they sat in the car priya texted ram "I'm sorry that I came out rude but you know I love you" and shove her phone in her purse before listening to Natasha's complains about her boyfriend, Kabir!
