Between The Lines: An OS/TS/SS Collection | AbhiMaan

4.3 ~ Identity Revelation - Prelude

A/N: This will be a short one, and the question mark is there because if you guys like this, I will write the IR after Abhira Vs PF. Please let me know in comments. Yeh toh trailer hai, picture abhi baki hai! No mahasangam will happen in this TS.

Special mention: Thank you Briti (mrsasfandyarali) for the addition of a cutesy romantic scene while Abhira designs their rings 🤭

Another mention to someone's umeed for making a cameo here. 🤭

Armaan and Abhira went to PH for selecting their rings for the engagement.

Abhira suddenly got an idea when the designer talked about customised rings. 

"Mam, can I get a pen and paper?"

"Why, Abhira? Do you have something in mind?"

"Yes, Maa. I would like to customise our rings."

The designer gave her the iPad to draw the design she had in mind. 

Abhira drew a beautiful blue lacquered band with turtle motif for her Khadoosmaan, her tongue poking out. Only Armaan knew how much he desired to shower her with a flurry of kisses and some more. His irresistible cute menace, his Abhira. 

While she was busy drawing her own engagement ring, with a turtle stone in middle, gently humming a random tune, Armaan felt his restrain tethering to its end as he pulled her up in his lap, nuzzling her nape.

"KHADOOSMAAN!! Kya kar rahe ho ye sab samne baithe hai" Abhira chided her boyfriend, pausing briefly, as she glared at her soon to be fiancé, desperately trying to hide her own blush.

"Kya kar raha hoon main?" He added with an nonchalance that made her roll eyes at him in affection, "Main toh bus apne Jaan ke saath romance kar raha hoon, iss mein bhi khata? Very, very bad Sharmaji. Aapse pyaar karne ka permission toh mujhe tabhi mil gaya tha jab Dadi Sa humari shaadi ke liye maan gayi thi."

"Khadoosmaan sab log yahi baithe hai!!"

"Toh?"

"Toh kya toh?"

"A little audience is always nice Mrs to be!"

"Tum... Tum na bare besharam ho, Khadoosmaan. Besharammaan kahinke!!"

"Aur tum meri ho"

Armaan whispered, tucking the rebellious baby hair of hers, behind her ear.

"Sir, Mam? Aap dono ka ho gaya ho toh hum ring pe focus kare?" The designer asked the couple visibly flushed and Abhira jumped, tripped and fell on the couch from her boyfriend's lap as if electrocuted, glaring at him throughout while injuring her hips in the process.

Armaan looked plain smug. Urgh the nerve of this man!!

Kaveri was shaking her head vehemently and Vidya-Manisha and Chorus Gang were enjoying the show.

Rohit, was shocked on seeing Majnumaan in full force, and started to doubt his own opinions that he had on him, kind of realising that Abhira was correct about Armaan.

Ruhi. Iska puchna hai kya?

At the same time, the smell of something burning was coming.

Vidya piped up, "Yeh achanak jalne ki boo? Kahi kitchen se toh nhi aa rahi hai na?"

"Maa, kisi ki 'umeed' ka jalne ki boo hogi shayad." Armaan stated, making Abhira snap her neck at an impossible speed, shocking others too. Manisha understood from Ruhi and Abhira's expressions, Kaveri was annoyed, Vidya, Rohit and Chorus gang were confused.
