The Promise(shivika)√√

Making it up

Flashback

Shivaay was fuming with anger, more than anger he was hurt, his relationship with her is not just a relation or bond. He changed because of her, she is his life. How can she doubt his intensions, he do agree that there is differences between them but thats what couples do they remove those differences and strive to love in any condition. Annika just gave up on herself, and on him too. He was not hurt beacause she did not trust him or their love he was hurt because she gave up.

On reaching the mansion he saw everybody back from their work all were sitting there talking to dai ma. Shivaay remembered how Annika left without telling him, and he just excused himself from dai ma and went to talk to her. He felt guilty to leave dai ma like that.

When he sat on sofa he heard dadi saying"lo ab to billu bhi aa gya bata kya baat karni hai tujhe?"

"Kya baat karni hai?". Shivaay asked

Dai ma spoke rather suspecting its outcome" tum sab to jaante ho mere bete aur bahu ke accident ke baad humari halat kaisi ho gyi thi, mujhe apne ashram se wapas ana pada. Bachho ki dekhbhal karne ke liye, socha tha kuch din me sab thik hoga par sab aur ulajh gya, Pia puttar ki shaadi toot gyi aur business ko band karna pada." she said feeling distress.

"main to yaha tum sabse madad mangne aayi thi" Again she said hesitating.

"Tera pura haq banta hai ,tej shakti ke papa marte waqt bhi nahi bhule ki tumhare ehsan hai humpe, haq se mang ye oberoi Empire jo bhi hai tera hai." Dadi said without any second thought.

Dai ma spoke" na na kalyani mujhe kuch nahi chahiye bas baccho ke ghar bas jaye, yehi mere liye bahut hoga,"

she was hesitating to say, but keeping an eye on shivaay she very slowly said"main apni Pia ka rishta shivaay ke saath karwana chahti hu,....pausing a bit.. me apni pia ke liye tere billu ka haath mangti hu kalyani." With that she shook everybody.

Everybody just paused at that moment they did not expected this, and they all know that shivaay Annika loved eachother and shivaay will never agree to this, but they also know for shivaay family's name is always a priority. They were collecting their emotions when shivaay spoke.

He stood in anger and without even doubting each words coming from his mouth he said" ye bilkul possible nahi hai dai ma, main Annika se pyaar karta hu aur uske alawa main kisi aur ke bare me soch bhi nahi sakta."

Dai ma said par puttar...cutting her on between he said
" Annika ke samne par war kuch nahi dai ma, uske alawa kisi aur ke bare me sochne se pehle me mar jana pasand karunga, main janta hu aap bahut hope leke aayi thi yaha, aapko aur jo kuch chahiye me apko dene ke liye taiyyar hu par Annika ko chodna mere liye possible nahi hai" he paused for sometime and calming himself he said
"main waise bhi sabko yehi batana chahta tha ki humdono ne shaadi karne ka faisla kiya hai".

His words made everybody smile, in unison they said finally.
Pinky just stood and hugged shivaay and said "oh my mata ye sunne ke liye mere kaan taras gye the, ab mera chota kanji aakhon wala shivaay aayega, i cant wait". Dadi was very happy even tej was smiling, omru came to shivaay and said" aj tune hum sabki wish puri kar di, we are so happy." Finally ab main Annika didi ko bhabhi bol sakta hu. Rudy was jumping with excitement.

Looking at their reaction dai ma got sad, she knew that nobody wanted to separate shivika they were waiting for their marriage.

Looking at her sad face dadi said" dekh kaveri teri pia se hume koi problem nahi hai par hum shivaay Annika ko alag nahi kar sakte wo dono ek dusre se bahut pyaar karte hai, agr shivaay mana nahi karta to bhi mein ye shaadi ke liye haan nahi bolti kyuki uss bacchi ke bahut ehsaan hai humare upar, aur us masoom bacchi ka dil me nahi dukha sakti.
Rahi baat pia aur tere potey ki unko yehi bula le shaadi ka mahaul hai, unke baare me hum sath milke baat karenge. Yaha bhi himare jaan pehchan ke log hai pia ki shaadi humare ghar se hi hogi, mera wada hai tujhse. Aur rahi tere potey ki baat wo oberois ka business join kar lega waise bhi uska bhi haq banta hai. Hai na"

With her words she squeezed her friends hands and with smile.

When everybody's excitement subdued, dadi got an idea, she was so pissed of with them,because they took so much time to get married, so she thought to irritate Annika by faking shivaays marriage with another girl.
Shivaay was opposing it because he knew Annika won't be able to take it just now he has seen her inability to fight back for her own happiness. He was doubtful. reluctantly he agreed.

Flashback ends

Annika was stunned by the revelations, she was crying with happiness. Tears were flowing non stop, shivaay was holding her with his hands on her shoulder she looked at him, he smiled wiping her tears, and dadi came forward and said" puttar rone ki zarorat nahi hai hum yo kab se chahte the tu kab is ghar ki bahu banegi".

Making Annika smile, everyone left for their respective work, they were all excited to witness shivika wedding they all started planning too.

She looked towards shivaay he seemed lost, he was not happy, it looked as if something hurt him. She knew he is angry with her she thought this must be the reason.

Shivaay left from there without saying anything. Annika felt bad she knew her baghadbilla needs her love filled apology.

She went to his room, she very carefully went towards him ,he behaved as if he is busy in the phone.she was trying all her cute antics to make him talk but he was not at all bother. She tried every possible way to make him talk but she knew her billuji is not easy to crack, then she hugged him from back, she knew only with love she can crack him, perfectly fitting to his back she hugged him.
From the crook of his neck she said"please shivaay aap mujhse naraz mat rahiye na please, aap naraz hote hai to lagta hai meri life hi ruk gyi hai. I am sorry mujhe wo sab nahi kehna chahiye tha." Saying this her eyes got moist shivaay could feel her tears in his shoulder, he can see anything not her tears he faced her and cupping her face he said
"main tumse naraz nahi hu bas mein disappoint hu ye soch kar ki tumhe mujhpe ya mere pyaar pe bharosa hi nahi hai, aj bhi tumne ek try bhi nahi kiya humare ristey ko bachane ke liye, bas haar maan liya aur mujhe chodkar jaane wali thi? Mujhe chodkar Annika!"stressing on last line, he was saying all this in soo much pain that she could feel how hurt he is, he was in verge of crying.

She just hugged him tight not giving space for air to pass. She just let his pain go away she knew he is scared to loose her, even she was afraid to loose him. She was feeling guilty.
Shivaay spoke again he was calm but his voice has so much pain," i know Annika you are selfless person, tum apne baare me kabhi nahi sochti dusro ki khushi tumhare liye priority hai, but Annika ye bhi sach hai jab selflessness had paar kar jaati hai to wo kamjori ban jaati hai. Kabhi kabhi dusro se pehle apne liye sochna padta hai. Agar aj dadi tumhari baat man ke meri shaadi kisi aur se fix kar deti to? Reh paati mere bina tum?"

He was questioning her,she felt a strange sensations she cant even hear the words of getting separated fro. Him, but she said" aapko nahi pata meri halat kya thi, i am sorry mene koi stand nahi liya wo islye ki aap apne family se pyaar karte hai aur unke against nahi jayenge, mein pal pal mar rahi thi shivaay...."she said hugging him more close and tighter.

I love you shivaay aur mein promise karti hu aapko chodkar kabhi nahi jaungi. After that they did pinky promise and hugged eachother to their heart content..

Dadi called Annika' mother and sister for wedding preparation. Everybody was so excited to witness the shivika wedding.
