Later in the evening, avni and neel got ready.

Neel had asked avni to wait at the door. She had worn a very casual outfit since she didn't know what to expect- very much like the old ananya days- indowestern top , jeans with a jean jacket and ethnic jewelry. She also decided to give her nose ring a comeback. She hadn't worn it in many days and she was missing it.

As she stood at the entrance waiting for neel she suddenly saw him make a dashing hero entry on a bike. HE had worn jeans and a simple white t-shirt with a cool black jacket and had a backpack slung in front of him. He came there, removed his helmet and looked at his wifey...yet again he was stunned! She looked like ananya this time...the one he had fallen for pretty much at first sight although he wouldn't acknowledge it then. He just looked at her dazed and avni walked up to him and snapped up her fingers

Neel- snapped out of the daze and said- held her by the waist and pulled her closer-wifey you look stunning! And then he moved his hand to her nose flickedit lightly and said- i like it.

Avni gave him a smile pleased to see that neil noticed the nose ring and also had complimented her.

Avni- she teasingly replied- vaise tum bhi thik thak lag rahe ho

Neel- pulled her back once again- Accha? And looked into her eyes with a naughty twinkle

Avni- vaise tumhe kaise pata ki mujhe bikes pasand hai

Neel- pata nahi tha, ab pata chalgaya. Maine socha kyunki hum aaj apne secrets aur memories vagarah share kar rahe hain toh I should tell you that I'm fond of bikes. Good to know that you like them too. Chalo ye lo helmet, lets go.

Avni grabbed it from him and wore it. She had lightly placed a hand on his shoulder to get on the bike. And she was waiting for neel to start the ignition

But neel hadn't moved

Avni- kya hua? Chalo na...main baith gayi hoon!

Neel- turned back, looked at her with a small shake of his head, pulled her hands around his waist and said kas ke pakdo wifey! Then he happily turned on the ignition and off they went

Avni and neel thoroughly enjoyed the bike ride. It was super romantic and neel had purposely pulled a few of the sudden brake moments to have avni jolt forwards onto him! He was enjoying pulling off all these movie like aashiq stunts with his wifey. They had travelled outside the main hustle and bustle of the city to the outskirts and along the coast. Both avni and neel were enjoying the view, the weather, the wind on their face and most of all each others company. Neel was enjoying having avni sit behind him holding onto him and avni was just basking in his warmth. She was feeling very tingly on the inside because this was all new to her. She thought about how ridiculous it was that she was going out on her first date ever with her Husband who she had already been married to for over a year, close to two years infact! As she thought about that she let out a chuckle. When neel asked her the reason for her sudden chuckle and she told her, he felt a pang realising that they had missed out on normal couple like moments in their life. But he brushed it aside and told himself that from now on he'd set things right. He gave one of her hands around his waist a tight reassuring squeeze and told her- haan ye toh humaari pahli date hai but abse tum tayyar hojao wifey kyunki tumhaara pati tumhe aise kai saare dates aur bahut saare chote surprises deta rahega!

Avni- in response leaned forward, kissed his shoulder and said to him- I'm very excited about today and also about everything else to come!

Neel- smiled contentedly and sped away on the roads .

Finally he stopped along a private beach resort.

He had made some special arrangements for them at the resort but before that he wanted to just enjoy the company of his wife. So as they got off he said- chalein wifey
