ISHQBAAZ

43

A week passed they were enjoying their trip. Veeranshu was there itself on anika's insist much to shivaay's annoyance.

Arpita was caught by now. Raghuvendra reunited with the family and got his position he deserves. All was good and smooth.

At dinning table.  

Dadi: sab log sun lo kal Karwa Chuth hai. Toh ladkiyon kal subha jaldi uth jana theek hai. Sargi khani hi phir pura din kuch nahi kha paogi

Girls: okay

Shivaay: dadi haar saal ke tarah hum bhi rakhenge. Correct boys?

OmRuHiRaVeer: correct.

Anika: veer aap bhi rakh rahe hai?

Veeranshu: haan

Anika: kis ke liye?

Veeranshu(stammering): woh... ap...apne liye

Anika found something fishy but didn't say anything and thought to talk to him afterwards.

Anika: dadi sari arrangements main karva dungi.

Jhanvi: nahi tum kuch mat karna. Ek toh fast rakhogi aur pure ghar mein daudti phirogi.

Pinky: corrects kaha jethaniji aapne.

Anika: haan toh main nahi karungi na don't worry.

After dinner

Veeranshu was sitting in the garden where anika approached him.

Veeranshu: sweetheart... aap itni raat ko yahan kya kar rahi hai?

Anika: yeh sawal toh hum bhi aapse puch sakte hai?

Veeranshu: woh bas nind nahi aa rahi thi

Anika: hum baat ko jyada ghumayenge nahi. Sidha puchte hai. Aap kiske liye fast rakh rahe hai?

Veeranshu(avoiding eye contact): kaha toh sahi apne liye

Anika: really?

Veeranshu: ha..haan

Anika stared him. Veeranshu got to know that he has been caught so he raised his hands surrendering. Anika smiled

Anika: bataiye na kon hai?

Veeranshu: Bani Rajvanshi. Humare business investor ki beti

Anika: sachi? Matlab aap ne jhuth bola humse?

Veeranshu: kaisa jhuth?

Anika: ke aap humse pyaar karte the issiliye shaadi nahi ki. Aur hum yahan guilt mein dube ja rahe hai.

Veeranshu: aree unhe bhi pata nahi hai.

Anika: toh kab baatne ka irada hai?

Veeranshu: bata denge. Abhi time hai.

Anika: jaldi bata denga warna pata chala der ho gai aur koi aur le gaya.

Veeranshu: leke toh dikhai

Anika chuckled. They talked for sometime and went to their respective rooms.

Next morning all the members got ready before the sunrise. After having Sargi all were busy in preparations as usual anika was running here and there. Shivaay saw that and moved to her.

Shivaay: anika kya kar rahi ho?

Anika: arrangements dekh rahi hun aur kya?

Shivaay: tum rehne do itna kaam karogi toh sham tak beshoh ho jaogi.
