It had been a month since their first epic road trip together. Avni had been convinced to join the family business by Neil and he was busy with a new case at work. So both avni and neil hadn't had much time to themselves . They were still enjoying the physical intimacy that was fairly new to them. Cuddling in each others arms at night, all the kisses and making out sessions which was almost a daily ritual, and a couple of showers together as well. They were getting comfortable with each other but it was still a few minutes a day that they really had to steal for themselves. Which is why they were both super excited for Christmas that was coming up. Neel had some leave saved up which he could take and Avni also could take a few days off from work because it was going to be closed for Christmas. They were both secretly hatching plans for surprises for each other on that day.
Neel- (in his head) Christmas is coming up and I need to make this special for avni. This can finally be the one festival that we really celebrate together without it getting ruined.
Avni Its been a month since our trip, and I've been too caught up with my work neil and me should do something together, I should plan something for him. Then she remembered Christmas was coming up so she made plans too.
On Christmas eve- after dinner, Avni had been pecking at her food, barely eating and he looked like she was in deep thought. As soon as everyone was done eating she literally fled to their room. Neil was wondering what was going on. Avni only ate less when she was anxious/nervous and he was a bit worried. The family knew that she was planning a surprise but didn't know the details. But they all kept their mouth shut when neil looked at them quizzically. They didn't want to spoil the surprise. But they kept trying to keep him occupied with some talk and neel was getting suspicious about why he wasn't being allowed to go up. He was dying to see what the matter with avni was and why she had gone in a hurry. So finally after being stalled for about an hour he finally broke free and ran upto their room. He realized the room was locked and started knocking- Avni tum theek to ho. Whats going on? Open the door ya avni
Avni- Neel, gimme 2 miutes please
Neel- what are you doing baby? Why have you locked me out of my own room?
Avni- 2 minutes please.
Neel- had no choice but to wait. But his wife was good with time exactly 2 minutes later, he noticed that she turned of the lights in the room and then he heard the door open. She stepped out and he just stared at her unblinkingly.
She looked stunning. She had worn a long dark blue dress which hugged her figure perfectly. Ever since she changed her fav color to blue, she had multiple shades of it in her wadrobe! And neel felt good seeing her in it because it made him feel special. Eveytime she wore a blue shade saree/kurta/dress, she gave him a smile which Neel knew was reserved for him exclusively. While he was staring at her she quickly moved behind him and covered his eyes.
Neel- Avni yaar kya kar rahi ho.
Avni- oh gosh ya. patience hubby. Chalo. 10 second mein tumhe khud pata chal jayega. She held his hand and led him in and she heard her lock the door behind them while she used one hand to keep his eyes covered.
Neel was getting excited now. She was standing close to him and he just basked in that unique fragrance that was just her.
Then he felt her move away his hands and once again Neel took in the whole setup in front of him with a stunned silence. Their whole room was decorated with fairy lights and she had put up a small Christmas tree in their room which was decorated. Under the tree he saw that she had placed a bunch of gifts as well.
Neel pulled her in for a tight hug and whispered- I love it babu. Thank you so much!
Avni- I'm glad u like it. Chalo.
