Recap:

Anurag came back from his trip and Aastha lashed out at him and expressed her insecurities in front of him. Aastha calls him "Anurag" instead of "Fire" and Rakshabandhan celebration.

Let's Start!!!

Rakshabandhan was a bliss for everyone, especially for Aastha and her siblings. The Next Day, Aastha went to Anurag's house for some work in the evening.

As soon as Aastha entered the main gate she was welcomed by Anurag's security, she stood in front of the main door.

Aastha: Ariana, open the door.

The door opened, she entered the hall and saw it empty.

Aastha frowns in a little anger, "Where is Fire?"

She checked in the kitchen itself but he was not there, Aastha shouted by calling him, "Fire, Fire, where are you? Fire..."

Anurag emerged from the library hearing her voice.

Anurag whined while descending the stairs, "Again Fire, why Bacha?"

Aastha pouts, "What's wrong with that? It took me 3 hours to think appropriate nickname for you."

Anurag stood in front of her and pulled her in his chest by holding her waist. Aastha's breath got uneven on the proximity, they were staring into each other's eyes and Aastha's eyes held love for him while Anurag's eyes held admiration for her.

Anurag (in deep voice): But I like it when you call me by my name. Anurag that sounds sweet in your voice.

Aastha with a mischievous glint in her eyes placed her hand on his chest, "I'll call you by your name on some special time only. For now, Fire suits you."

Anurag chuckled softly, shaking his head in amusement. He couldn't help but feel the warmth she brought with her, a glow that seemed to light up even his quiet home. He tucked her loose hair strand behind her ear, standing close but with a curious look in his eyes.

Anurag: Okay, now tell me, what's this sudden visit about? I know you're up to something.

Aastha tilted her head, her playful mood still evident, but there was a hint of seriousness in her tone as she spoke.

Aastha (mocking disbelief): Oh, you underestimate me, Fire. I'm always up to something. But this time, I actually came to tell you something important.

Anurag's brows furrowed slightly, concern flickering in his eyes.

Anurag: What is it? Is everything okay?

Aastha took a step back, gesturing toward the front door with a wave of her hand.

Aastha: Your IT office might have a little bug. The door to your house opened with my voice, not yours. I didn't even need to use any security codes or IDs.

Anurag's expression immediately changed from playful to alert. His hand instinctively reached for his phone to make a note.

Anurag (serious): That's impossible. It shouldn't have... Wait.

He paused, staring at Aastha in realization. His mouth twitched slightly as he began to process her words.

Anurag (smirking): You've spent so much time here that the system recognizes your voice as mine. You're practically a part of the house now, bacha.
