As soon as Savi and Rajat entered their room, Rajat turned to Savi, his eyes filled with a mix of emotions. "Savi, I'm so sorry for what happened downstairs. My family can be... overwhelming, and I'm sorry they brought up... her always."

Savi's expression softened, and she reached out, placing a gentle hand on Rajat's arm. "It's okay, Rajat. I understand. Family can be complicated."

Rajat took a deep breath, his eyes locked on Savi's. "I know I didn't handle it well, but I just... I don't want to hurt you, Savi. You deserve so much better than a family like mine, with all our baggage and drama."

Savi's eyes filled with compassion, and she stepped closer to Rajat. "Rajat, you don't have to apologize for your family. And I'm not here to judge you or them. I'm here to support you, to be with you."

Rajat walked closer to Savi, his eyes locked on hers. "You know, I've been thinking... that Baingan ka Bharta you made today? It was so delicious. That I want I want to say thank you to think about me."

Savi smiled, her eyes sparkling. "Really?"

Rajat's gaze softened, and he reached out, gently brushing a strand of hair behind Savi's ear. "You do everything with so much love, Savi. It shows in everything you do."

Savi's cheeks flushed, and she looked down, her voice barely above a whisper. "I just want to make my whole family happy, Rajat."

Rajat's heart swelled with emotion, and he pulled Savi close, his lips brushing against her forehead. "You do, Savi. You make me happier than I ever thought possible."

Rajat's expression softened, and he looked at Savi with a warm gaze. "You know, I really like the way you call me through sai to come hime early."

Savi's cheeks flushed, and she smiled, her eyes sparkling. "Oh, that?"

Rajat nodded, his voice low and gentle. "Yes, that. It's sweet. And Sai's voice is so cute."

Savi's face glowed with a warm smile, and she looked down, her eyelashes fluttering. The moment was filled with a tender, intimate connection, and Rajat's heart swelled with affection for his wife.

Savi then lightly pushed him and said , " You need to change clothes. Let me fix the room to sleep."

Rajat nodded, his eyes still locked on Savi's face. "Yeah, you're right. I'll go change."

He turned and headed towards the closet, his movements relaxed and casual. Savi watched him go, her eyes lingering on his broad shoulders and strong back.

As Rajat disappeared into the closet, Savi turned and began to tidy up the room, her movements quiet and efficient. She could hear the sound of Rajat changing, and her heart skipped a beat as she wondered what the night might bring. After what Isha Maa told her and how she agreed to give her life a chance.

Rajat's eyes widened in surprise as he took in the scene before him. Savi was already changed into a cozy pair of pajamas, lounging on the bed with her phone in hand, scrolling through reels. He couldn't help but chuckle at how quickly she had gotten ready.

"How do you do it?" Rajat asked, shaking his head in amusement. "You're like a magician. One minute you're tidying up, the next you're ready for bed."

Savi looked up from her phone, a smile playing on her lips. "Practice makes a women perfect," she said, winking at Rajat.

Rajat grinned, feeling a warmth in his chest. He loved these quiet moments with Savi, just the two of them relaxing together. He walked over to the bed, slipping under the covers beside Savi.

Rajat's voice was low and gentle as he asked, "Hey, holding me while sleeping... was that just a one-night thing?"

Savi's cheeks flushed instantly as she remembered the previous night's events. She had asked Rajat to hold her, seeking comfort and reassurance after those terrifying nightmares.

Rajat's eyes sparkled with amusement, and he leaned in closer, his voice taking on a teasing tone. "Or was it something more?"

Savi's face grew hotter, and she looked away, trying to play it cool. "I... I don't know what you're talking about," she stammered.

Rajat chuckled, his chest vibrating with laughter. "Oh, come on, Savi. I'm not buying it. You were pretty insistent on holding me last night, so why not today?"

Savi's eyes darted back to Rajat's, and she felt a flutter in her chest. "I... I don't know," she stammered, her voice barely above a whisper.

Rajat's gaze held hers, his eyes sparkling with a gentle challenge. "Maybe I should just assume it's a regular thing now," he said, his voice low and smooth.

Savi's cheeks flushed again, and she felt a shiver run down her spine. She didn't say anything, just looked at Rajat with a soft, vulnerable expression.

Rajat's face softened, and he reached out, gently pulling Savi close. "Come here," he whispered, wrapping his arms around her.

Savi snuggled into his chest, feeling a sense of safety and comfort wash over her. She knew she didn't have to say anything; Rajat understood.

Rajat's gaze held hers, his eyes filled with a deep emotion. "I know you did this for Sai, Savi. But I want you to know that I'm committed to this marriage, to us, for the long haul. I'll wait for you, Savi, until you're ready to accept me, to accept us."

"Rajat..." she whispered, her voice trembling.

Savi's heart skipped a beat as Rajat's words washed over her. She felt a lump form in her throat as she looked up at him, her eyes locking onto his.

Savi's ear was pressed against Rajat's chest, and she could hear the steady beat of his heart. It was a soothing sound, one that seemed to calm the stormy waters of her emotions.

As she lay there, she felt a sense of resignation wash over her. She knew she couldn't love again, not after what she'd been through. But as she listened to Rajat's heartbeat, she realized that maybe she didn't need to love him to be his wife.

She could be a good partner, a supportive wife, without having to give him her heart. It was a compromise, one that she was willing to make for the sake of their family, for the sake of Sai.

Savi took a deep breath, feeling a sense of determination rise up within her. She would do this, she would be Rajat's wife, even if it meant she couldn't give him the one thing he truly desired: her love.

She slept. Rajat's eyes gazed lovingly at Savi's peaceful face, her gentle breathing a soothing sound. He smiled to himself, feeling a warmth spread through his chest.

"I think I'm falling for you, Savi," he whispered, his voice barely audible. "Not just for your beauty, but for your kindness, and you"

Rajat's eyes crinkled at the corners as he smiled, feeling a deep connection to this woman who had come into his life. He knew it wouldn't be easy, that Savi had walls built around her heart, but he was willing to wait, to earn her trust, and to prove his love.

As he looked at Savi, Rajat felt a sense of gratitude wash over him. He was grateful for this second chance at love, for this opportunity to build a life with Savi, sai and kiaan.
