Shivika walked to parking lot, anika kept muttering inaudible words letting shivaay secretly enjoy the jealous billi avatar. Reaching car shivaay placed bags in backseat, held anika who was about to open passanger door "kya?"

"she already knew whom I belong to then Why you are spoiling your mood because of her, chodo na" he softly caged her between him and car. She glared at his teasing grin, "I love this side" he slowly whispered leaning forward.

Anika pushed him away before settling inside, chuckling at her reaction he jogged to other side. "so where? Our home or oberoi mansion?" shivaay asked tugging seat belt before inserting key.

"drop me at house and you leave to oberoi mansion" anika answered to shivaay who looked at her with open mouth "what?. Psyco.What did I do she is the one who winked at me" he winced like a kid listening to her.

"no it's not about her.You didn't spend time with your family these days... So, today spend with them" anika explained making him frown, after serious argument anika was decided as winner. The whole ride was silent, anika tried to initiate conversation but one word reply came in return.

Shivaay halted car before her house with a grumpy face, anika sat there looking at his face. "what are you looking at.... Go!" shivaay said with irritation after noticing her constant stare. She opened her arms indicating him to hug her whilst he turned his face away, she suppressed a smile.

"if you don't hug me now. Don't kiss for a week" she noticed him dropping shoulders in defeat, staring at her face for few seconds he took her into hug inhaling her fragrance. She rubbed his back with a smile "psyco.... Is it necessary? " he asked for one last time in hope to change her mind.

"ha... Shivaay. I feel like you are not spending your time with them like before" she pulled back cupping his face, her words bought a instant frown on his forehead, "everyone know about us. They all are more than okay with this"

"still. You should stay today in oberoi mansion" anika said firmly he nodded as he saw no option left, "can you sleep without me then?" she smiled before nodding yes.

"but I can't" he whispered back listening to her. "then how did you sleep before?Stop your drama and go" anika said before pulling back from hug. He tighten his grip muttering "few more mintues!" she smiled wrapping her hands around him again. He now hated the distance between driving seat and passenger seat.

After few mintues he broke hug, pecking her nose he asked her to take care.

Shivaay walked into oberoi mansion rotating his key chain on forefinger, "bhaiya.... Where is anika di?" rudy asked looking at door. "she is in her home" shivaay replied while walking to his room.

After working for few hours he joined his family for dinner. As soon as he settled on chair, pinky gained his attention asking "did you and anika fight?"

"what? No... We didn't" shivaay was baffled by sudden question but later nodded no, rudy commented "jhoota... Pakka these both had a fight!"

"what makes you all think so?" shivaay questioned everyone as they all supported pinky and suspected his answer. "if you didn't fight... Then what you are doing here instead of her house" Tej asked with raised eyebrows.

Shivaay's ears turned red, he knew that they knew about them but still confronting made him blush "nothing such... I just thought to spend today with you. May be you all missed me?" shivaay gave his reason dipping his roti into curry. All rolled their eyes replying "well.... We didn't"
