Shivika: Entwined By Destiny

59

Shivaay reached his office and got himself busy in his works. He received a call from Om. Om had asked him and Anika to come to his home for lunch. After completing his works Shivaay went to Anika's hospital. He reached the hospital and was waiting in her cabin. He noticed one particular thing in her cabin that made him smile. 

He noticed the name plate on the desk. It showed Anika Shivaay. He liked it and caressed the name plate. Anika came in a while and saw he was drowned in his thoughts. Shivaay sensed her and turned back.

A: Shivaay, aap yaha kya kar rahe hai?

S: Anika actually Om had called us for lunch...

A: Shivaay give me 2 minutes mein abhi aa jaongi.

S: Ok Anika! 

Anika took her belongings and went with Shivaay. Both of them settled down in the car. 

S: Anika I am sorry!

A: Shivaay please uss baat kho chod dijiye...

S: Kya Anika ka ghussa tand ho gayi hai?

He asked making her giggle. She nodded positive. Shivaay took Anika's hand and kissed it making her blush. 

A: Shivaay! Driving par concentrate kijiye...

Shivaay frowned and Anika smiled at him. Anika was drowned in her thoughts when Shivaay tapped her shoulder and asked what happened. 

A: Shivaay aap ko yaad hai, humne aise hi Om ke ghar gaye the hamari shaadi ke time par. Abhi hum Om aur Gauri ki shaadi ke liye uske ghar ja rahe hai...

Anika looked at Shivaay and both of them smiled. Later both of them reached to Om's house. Shivika were welcomed by Vikas and Gayathri. Shivika took their blessings. Later they went to Gauri's mother and took her blessings. Pandit arrived in a while and he checked both of their horoscope.

He told the muhurat would be at this month end. Everyone agree to it. 

A: Iska matlab sirf teen hafte hi baaki hai shaadi mein..

Pallavi(Gauri's mother): Teen hafto mein sab kuch kaise hoga?

Shivaay: Aap tension kyun le rahe hai ma? Mein hoon na mein sab kuch arrange kar dunga.

P: Par beta...

S: Ma aap mujh par bharosa rakhiye. Mein sab kuch theek karunga.

Pallavi gets teary. Shivaay goes to her.

S: Ma aap aise ro kyun rahe ho?

P: Kyun ki aap sab Gauri ke liye itna kuch kar rahe hai...

S: Ma aap mujhe apna beta maante ho na? She nods. 

S: Toh phir apne behen ki shaadi ka kaam aap apne bete par chod dijiye. Aap aise royenge toh kisi ko bhi acha nahi lagega. 

Shivaay wiped her tears. Everyone felt proud of Shivaay. Mostly Anika. Rudra and Bhavya came to Om's house from college. Bhavya squealed in happiness on hearing the wedding date being fixed. Shivaay sat near Gayathri. 

S: Ma mujhe aapse kuch poochna hai!

G: Poocho na Shivaay!

S: Ma I was thinking we can plan a destination wedding for Om and Gauri. Are you okay with it?

Gayathri looks at Om's father and both of them agree. Om and Gauri were stealing glances. Anika coughed and brought them to reality. 

S: Toh kya hum Udaipur mein shaadi organise kare? 

Everyone agree. Later all decide the dates to organise all the events. After having a hearty lunch Anika gets a call from hospital.

A: Gayathri ma, mujhe hospital mein ek emergency hai mujhe jana hoga!

G: Theek hai beta, apna khayal rakhna! 

Shivika drove back. Anika was talking about some preparations while Shivaay was lost in her. 

A: Shivaay!

S: Kya hua?

A: Aap kaha kho gaye hai? Dekhiye we crossed the hospital.

Shivaay drove back. Anika took Shivaay's hand in hers. 

A: Shivaay take care! Drive safe!

Shivaay nodded. Anika moved inside. Shivaay smiled at her and left for his office. Both of them get involved in their works. Late in the evening Shivaay comes to her hospital and both reach home. Shivaay goes to their room. Anika prepares dinner and goes to their room. 

A: Shivaay kaha hai aap?

S: Pool ke paas hoon!

Anika goes there. He was sitting near the pool and was thinking something. Anika sat next to him. Shivaay placed his head on her shoulder. Anika smiled and locked her hand with his. 

A: Shivaay aap kya soch rahe hai?

S: Woh... Om aur Gauri ke baare mein soch raha tha. I want to see them happy.

Anika nods. Both of them talk for a while. 

A: Shivaay pehle hum dinner kare kya?  Mujhe toh bohot bhook lag rahi hai! 

She says with a cute pout. Shivaay kissed her cheek. 

A: Shivaay please hatiye...

S: Nahi toh..

Anika pushes him gently and stands up. Shivaay catches her hand and pulls her towards him. Both were looking at each other. Shivaay pulls her close to him. Anika lowers her gaze in shyness. He made her face him. Anika hugs him and buried her face in his crook. Shivaay caressed her hair and kissed her. Both remained in the position for a while. 

Anika looked at him breaking the hug. Shivaay kissed her forehead. Later both of them had dinner. Anika sat on the couch and was writing her dairy and Shivaay went to make a phone call. Later he sat beside her. Anika completed writing the dairy. 

A: Shivaay aap mujhe aise kyu dekh rahe hai?

S: Because you are looking different today!

A: Matlab?

S: Pata nahi par mujhe tumhe aise hi dekhne ka man hai.. Anika ek baat bolu!

A: Hmm...

S: Yahi ki mein tumhe zindagi bhar aise hi dekh sakta hoon.. If you wish me to do..

A: Shivaay aap phirse CSO ban rahe hai...

S: Tumhe pata bhi nahi hai mein aur kya ban sakta hoon.. 

He said in his husky voice and moved forward while Anika was moving back. She is breathing heavily. Shivaay smirked seeing her. 

A: Shivaay... kya kar rahe hai aap?

S: Kuch nahi...

Shivaay kissed her cheek and Anika closed her eyes tightly. He carried her in his arms and placed her on the bed. He slept next to her. Anika kissed his cheek and whispered Good night.

Shivaay POV: 

Anika mein tumse yeh kehna chahta hoon ki I love you... I love you more than anyone else in the world. Par pata nahi tujhe dekh kar bata nahi pa raha hoon. But mein promise karta hoon ki that I would confess my feelings soon. Tumhe bohot khush rakhunga Anika. 

Shivaay then kissed Anika's forehead and slept. Anika moved towards Shivaay and slept comfortably in her embrace.
