Anika sat straight on the bed, She thought that She had been dreaming all these.
The day itself had been so long and happening, First ShivRu came up with the betrothal then She went to meet Vikram and his friendly suggestions and her decision, Then that remarkable encounter with Shivaay, That drive back to her home, Their Hug,
The thought came in her mind as She beamed with a smile,
The feel of being in his arms, the peace of mind she felt at that moment, The feel of content, relief, and a sudden unknown feel of being important to him, every feeling regarding that hug was really special to her,
and now, This wish... realization stuck on her as She almost forgot that It was the last day of this year, A Year on which She met him for the first time, became his employee, earned his trust, broke his trust, completed taking revenges on his deed, danced with him, won the competition, got proposed by His brother for the marriage, met with her best friend after a long, ufffff.... and so on...
She checked if the call was real or not! Getting sure about the wish was real and from the man, She wanted to get the wish, She whispered,
"Happy New Year to You too"

Mittal House
2 weeks left before the grand Wedding
Day 1
Ritual Roka
~
Oberoi family was fully present, while The priest was performing the puja, Om and Anika performed the tilak ceremony, took the blessings from the elders, Om's Dadi instructed her bahus to distribute the sweets and the boxes of dry fruits and other gifts among the bride's relative.
All were happy except the two, The bride herself and the brother of The bride's would be husband (supposed to be).
These all were planned by Shivaay still He was the one who looked restless and unhappy throughout the ceremony.
He excused himself from there in the pretence of attending Guests when The priest had asked Om to take the bride's hand in his and both had been asked to take some flowers together as a blessing and preach something together,
After completing the ritual, Anika got time to attend the guests, but all this while her eyes were only searching for two Kanji eyes !
She went to the food corner only to find Rudra gobbling some Foods,
"Have you seen Shivaay?" She questioned tapping his shoulder,
Rudra was about to spit back the food out of shock, but managed to gulp it at one go,
"No Bhabhi, Why are you asking? Is there any important message to give him? or you can ask me if Anything You need, I can do it myself for you" ,
"No Rudra, I only need Shivaay" She walked past him,
"Bhabhi Still you wont admit that You feel for bhaiya, your heart only beats for him, no problem, You will admit it once you both will realise it, sooner or later" He thought out loud.
Anika heard a familiar voice coming from the Veranda, someone was talking over the phone outrageously.
She went towards there and met with two bluish green eyes.

He felt the world around him had already stopped moving round, while adoring the beauty standing before him, He had not noticed her properly during the ritual

He felt the world around him had already stopped moving round, while adoring the beauty standing before him, He had not noticed her properly during the ritual.
The Green floral netted lehenga with patch work dripping down her feet, the pink choli with a dangerously deep neckline and her patent minimal makeup but the main attraction were those pink luscious lips............
her presence bedazzled him.
