Shivika: Entwined By Destiny

94

A: Idea! Call Sahil!

Grabbing her phone she called Sahil. He picked up her phone in two rings.

Sa: Hello Anika di! Kaisi ho? Waha pe enjoy kar rahi ho na! Tumne kuch shopping kiya hai? Mere liye kya laane waali ho? Where is billu jiju? Mujhe..

A: Stop it Saahil! Itne saare sawal poochte ho toh jawab kaise doon?

Sahil smiled sheepishly over the phone. 

Sa: Abhi batado, how can I help my sister?

A: Sahil sirf tum hi ho jo mere help kar sakte ho! You are my sweet bhai  na..

Sa: Anika di, I already said that I will help you. Then why are you wasting your time buttering me?

A: Woh Sahil baat yeh hai ki..

She explained the situation to her. He was thinking on what could he do so as to help his sister. 

Sa: Anika di sirf ek hi raasta hai!

A: Bolo na, kaise?

Sa: Anika di pehle tum dheere se saans lo!

A: Kyun?

Sa: Di, don't disturb! And do as I say..

A: Okay!

She sighed and took a deep breath. 

Sa: Close your eyes now!

A: Okay!

Sa: Concentrate on billu jiju!

Anika chuckled. 

Sa: Di focus karo! 

He shouted. 

A: Ok baba! Itna chillao mat!

Sa: Abhi mein kuch nahi bataonga..Kyunki meri samajdaar behen ko itna ishara kaafi hai!

A: I love you champ! You are really a champion bro!

Sa: Anika di bas karo, itna taarif nahi chahiye.. Waise bhi mujhe pata hai mein sach mein champion hoon.

A: Chup kar badmaash! Bye!

Sa: Bye di..Di mera chocolates mat bhoolna!

A: Yaad hai hitler! Bye..

Anika cuts the call and takes a deep sigh and closes her eyes. The first thought she gets is of Shivaay. She smiles. 

A: Thanks Sahil!

Grabbing the pen and paper she thought of some vows and began to write them. She was busy in her own world that she did not notice someone's intense stare on her. 

Shivaay POV: 

After a leisure walk through garden for about half an hour I was about to return back when I saw a red rose. I wanted to give it to her. Taking the rose in my hand I smiled. God! I am feeling like a love struck teenager. But when it comes to Anika, I can't help it. How good it would be if Anika could accompany me here. Its so peaceful! The mere thought of her makes me feel crazy..

I returned to the villa to see my lady writing the vows with full of concentration. The gentle breeze was playing with her free hair strands and she was tucking them lovingly. I love to tuck her loose strands seeing her face. I can just sit and watch her till eternity.

My chain of thoughts were disturbed when Anika stretched her hands indicating her work was done. 

A: Shivaay yaha pe aaiye na!

When Shivaay sat next to her his hands moved towards her vows list. She jerked his hand and took the paper from him. 

A: Shivaay mein apni list aap ko nahi dikhaongi! 

He frowned while she giggled. She stood up and kept the paper safely in a wardrobe. Anika looked at him and he patted the place next to him. Smiling, she came to him but he pulled her and she settled in his lap and rested his head on her shoulder. Anika took his hand and kissed it. His face formed a genuine smile and he locked her fingers with his. The cooing sounds of birds made the atmosphere more romantic. 

Anika was busy staring at two white doves settled on a tree while he was busy looking at their reflection in the pool. 

A: Shivaay aap ko yaad hai Rudra ne white dove gift kiya tha!

S: And we let it free..Yaad hai!

A: I don't know whether its the same bird or not.. Par Shivaay mujhe aisa lagta hai ki uss bird ko uski partner mil gaya! Waha dekhiye..

 She pointed towards the birds and he smiled. 

S: Anika mujhe bhi aisa hi lagta hai! 

A: They look beautiful right! Being together..

S: Waise uss birds se zyaada mujhe kuch aur pasand aa raha hai!

A: Kya?

S: Neeche dekho!

Shivaay pointed their reflection in the pool. Anika's face adorned with a beautiful smile and she kissed his cheek.

A: Shivaay do you know purane zamaane mein na log birds ke help se communicate karte the!

S: Anika mujhe history kyu yaad dila rahi ho?

A: Budhu Singh Oberoi mera woh matlab aap ko history yaad dilane ka nahi tha..

He narrowed his eyes in confusion. She giggled.

A: Mein yeh keh rahi thi ki kitna romantic hota na! Aise communicate karna..Shivaay agar hum dono uss zamane par the toh hum bhi aise "prem patra" likhte the na! Aww...How romantic!

He chuckled at her innocence. 

A: Shivaay zara sochiye..Shivaay Singh Oberoi, prince of one kingdom and I am the princess of another...We used to love each other..but no one knows it...You used to meet me secretly riding on your horse. And we used to share love letters with help of birds.

He was busy listening to her version of their fairy tale. She sat next to her and took his hand in hers. Her eyes showed the little excitement. 

A: And Shivaay mera swayamvar hota hai!

He frowned listening it.

S: Tum sirf meri ho! Chahe kitna bhi prince honge waha pe.. Par princess Anika is destined to be with her prince..And its me!

She giggled seeing his possessiveness. 

A: Aur Shivaay aap sirf mere hai! I will wait for my prince.

Shivaay kissed her cheek and pulled her close.

A: Shivaay abhi kahani khatam nahi hui hai! Mein kaha thi...

S: Tumhare swayamwar mein..

A: Ha...you had shown your excellent skills..And I married you!

S: And I took my queen to my palace!

A: And we lived happily ever after..

S: Aww! Anika kahani toh bohot hi acha hai!

A: Aakhir Anika ki story hai toh meri tarah khidkitod hi hoga na!

She raised her imaginary collar. He pulled her close and placed his lips on hers. She responded and pulled him close running her hands in his hair. He rested his forehead against hers breathing for air.

S: Love you Anika Shivaay Singh Oberoi!

A: Love you too, my prince!

He pulled her close to him and she buried herself in his warmth.
