Let your heart wander here (OS station) |✔

She held his heart with her cuteness

Shivaay was relaxing himself on the comforter while burying his head in the laptop, trying to make a good presentation. This whole week had been hectic for him and he was tired as hell. And this presentation was churning his mind. "Its been days since I had a conversation with my Anika." He thought and took out his cell. He opened the Gallery in his mobile and then the folder 'Meri Pannika'. He scrolled various pictures and began admiring them. The one with the spectacles when they had lost their way in the forest, secretly captured by him thou he had a hard time to click it as he was intoxicated by the herbs that he ate and the bundle of cuteness that he saw: his dear wife Anika. This picture was the most favorite of him, when she was all by herself, enjoying her life. Not taking the risk of everyone else's problem on her head, like she usually does and doing funny little gestures that he still admired.

He loved her like anything and was waiting to confess it. Yes, the great Shivaay Singh Oberoi has fallen in love with an extraordinary girl who had captured not only his heart, but his mind, soul and everything. She also came in his dreams making him go all 'Awwww.." After staying away from him for a day only, he realized his feelings, and was glistening with joy to make this confession to her. He had to stay for 2 weeks in Amsterdam and already a week was over. He couldn't contact Anika as one of the rules stated that he could not use his mobile and contact his family members. He was ready to knock the person out of his wits who created this rule as he could not imagine his life without Anika and not seeing and listening to her sweet voice which is like a beautiful song for his ears, for two whole weeks was enough to make him angry. But for the sake of deal that could make a huge turnover in the Oberoi's business, he had to abide by the rules.

He knew that she must be angry at him for not contacting with her for the whole week, but he was helpless. He had to bear it for a week more. He could just talk to her pictures that sometimes he or Khanna captured secretly. He kissed her photograph lightly murmuring "I miss you".

There in Oberoi Mansion the sun rose with his full charm. " Anika bhabhi, my protein shake, I am getting late for the college." Shouted Rudra as he packed his back pack. Anika who was sleeping soundly as her usual habit stood up with a start and murmured "Oh bete ki !" She rushed towards the washroom in a Cheetah speed and freshened herself. After 10 minutes she was standing in front of her Devar handing the protein shake. He smiled and kissed her cheek waving a goodbye to her.

She went towards her room and began thinking that, has her husband forgotten her. Its been so many days since he saw her, held her hand and threw her in pool. She was remembering everything the way he did his signature step with full tadi, and threw his phone as a toy. She plastered a small smile on her face remembering him. "Is he angry with me ?" She thought to herself.

A knock on the main gate of the house made her get out of his thoughts. She opened to find a tall handsome young man standing on the door greeting her "Namaste Bhabhi ji". She too bended her head confused. " I am Shivaay's friend Advay." He said looking at her.

And then what, they both chatted like anything. In no time they both became friends and were talking about Shivaay. He told her about his habits and likes and dislike. He also told her that "Shivaay used to like girls who were really slim with a petite waist. And he wanted to marry, a girl like that only." After a few more minutes talk he took her leave. Thou Advay hasn't met his friend which he wanted to, he met his wife who was a beautiful soul.

After he left Anika was more sad. His one sentence was ringing in her ears, "He used to like girls with petite waist and a slim body, he wanted to marry the same." She thought maybe she have gain a little weight, maybe he is not interested in her anymore, maybe he now doesn't like talking to her. Her eyes became a little watery thinking about the possibilities. She instantly removed the little puddle from her eyes and then closed her eyes for a brief moment.

The next day was a challenge to her, she woke up in the morning early and started jogging in her room. She would say to herself, "Yes, Anika you can do it." She would run on the spot and jump and raise high. After doing this for a hectic of two hours, she sat on the floor with a thud. She was sweating like anything, but was having a content smile. She could do anything for her husband, his dreams are her dreams too.

The breakfast table was ready and today was a Sunday. Rudra decided to cheer his bhabhi as he knew she was feeling lonely without his bhaiya. So he made Aloo Puri. "Anika bhabhi, today I have made aloo puri, for you !" He exclaimed happily as she sat on her chair. No Rudra, I cannot eat Aloo Puri." She said. His face fell down. She saw this and felt sad and said "Rudra please...I am sorry." He nodded his head and said, "I know Bhabhi ! But next time you have to.." He said smiling a bit.

She ate salads in the breakfast. She would go to gym and do a little weight lifting, sometimes she would hurt herself, but she was determined. She remembered how many times Shivaay has fulfilled her wishes, this is her turn now. And with that she would do that again.

This followed for a week and now the time has came for which Anika was nervous. Shivaay was arriving home but she didn't knew the exact timings. She was scared, maybe he was still angry or what else will be the reason he will not talk to her for 2 whole weeks, she felt like crying.

"Oh my god ! Why is this flight late now. Two whole weeks have passed since I saw Anika and my family. She must be very angry with me." Shivaay thought

At last the flight landed and it was two now. He went to his house to see that the lights were off. He entered their room and saw that she was sleeping in an uncomfortable position. He body was placed on the floor while her head was on the bed. He slowly closed the door as not to disturb her. But she woke up. As soon as she saw her his heart ached. She was looking so dull, so pale. Tear streaks were visible and her eyes were swollen. It seemed she hasn't got sleep. He wanted to hug her as soon as he saw her but now he just stood there numb.

She rubbed her eyes with her small, cute fingers as to assure her that he was for real. Watching him saying nothing, she spoke "Are you still angry with me ?" Innocently and softly. He stood there not able to say anything. He was expecting her to shout at him and ask numerous questions but she was asking this.

He went towards her as fast as his legs could take and pulled her in his embrace. He kissed her hair various time, the feeling for longing was raised. They stood like that for a long time when he sensed his shirt wet. She was crying ! Her Anika was crying and he was the reason for this. He cupped her mouth and asked "Anika, why are you crying and why the hell you are looking like this, so pale, haven't you slept...when I was away. I was missing you so much. Tell me.." Anika stood for a while like that and smiled a little. "So you were not angry with me ?" She asked with all the innocence. "Why the hell Anika, I will be angry with you. You are my life, my love !! I thought you were angry with me. I am sorry, I wasn't able to contact you." He then told her the whole reason.

And then she understood the situation, "So that's why you were not talking to me." "Of course Anika, why will I not. I love you." She was now jumping with joy, her dream came true. He loves her. "I love you too." She said as she kisses him on the cheek and then caressed his face. "I missed you so much."

"Shivaay if I tell you something, will you be angry with me ?" She asked. "No, why will I ?" He said. She then told him about his friend's visit and he telling her that he likes slim girls. What all she did in her absence.

He was quite astonished. He never thought, that she will ever do something like that. He kissed her forehead and then smiled. "How dare you thought, that I not like you anymore. Everyday I would use to talk to your picture, its been a hard time for me to stay away from you. Promise me, you will never do like that. See how dull you are looking. I want my old Anika back, pinky promise me !" He said as his eyes became a little teary.

He carried her to the bed and placed her carefully. She tied her pinky finger with his. That night both slept contently in each other's embrace after a long time.

She held his heart with her cuteness !
