“Kyaa hua Shivaay?”
“Not sure.. Let me check” He said trying to restart the vehicle as many times as possible, but in vain.
He got out of the car and went to check the engine.
“Annika.. just stay inside.. Let me check” he said.
“Hmmm”
'Yeh Bhagad Billa bhi na? Even my champa would have gotten us to the place already.. Can't he check all this before starting' she kept murmuring as he didn't come back even after ten minutes or so.
Finally, after multiple rounds of check, when he came back and tried, it started. Ufff, hopefully it should successfully help them reach the destination. Was the car also tensed like Annika?
When he turned to look at her as a sign of victory, she was already fast asleep.
“Yeh ladki bhi na . Unbelievable.. She sleeps anywhere and anytime” saying so he stared at her for a moment and then smiled to himself. Her angelic face was shining in the moon light with some of her hair strands spread over her face. “But, she looks so adorable” he said softly moving away those strands without disturbing her sleep. After a few more seconds, he came back to reality and rubbed the back of his neck slightly blushing and started the car.

They reached the resort in another forty five minutes. And, it took him another solid five minutes just to wake her up.
They then took out the luggage from the car and proceeded towards the hotel reception. While Annika was arranging the bags near the lounge, she casually noticed that the receptionist was flirting with her husband. She quickly marched towards them.
"So, the room is ready? Can we leave?"
"Ma'am I was explaining sir about the amenities available in the resort, and also the location of your room and about the gym available at the..."
"Wait... So, why not explain them to me?"
"Ma'am.. you mean about the gym?"
"Yes and the other things too.."
"But, I thought you don't use the gym"
Shivaay chuckled at the comment while Annika gave a strong stare.
"Hogaya.. ok give the keys.. need to go!"
"Ma'am I have few more things to explain.."
"KEYS?" Annika said sternly and she had no option but to hand it over to them.
While they started walking away, the receptionist waved her hands at Shivaay and he returned it too, which went noticed by Annika as Shivaay got yet another final stare before going into the room.
******************************************
The room was quite big, bigger than Shivaay's room at Oberoi Mansion. Annika was looking at it like she was seeing some World Wonder. This room also had a couch in one corner, bigger than the one in Shivaay's room. They kept all their stuff in the wardrobe present there when Annika noticed the couch..
"Wow Shivaay.. look there is a couch here.. I can sleep there"
"What? Look you are not sleeping there!"
"Lekin kyun? I am used to sleeping on the..."
"Annika..you are sleeping there and that's it" He said pointing at the bed.
"Shivaay..No way.. And then, and then.. you will say I kicked you.. And then.."
"And then, Kyaa Annika" He said huskily walking close to her.
