Chapter 154

Part 38

It was past 8 from morning as she set up on bed fully awake.. Every muscle of her body felt sore as she got up from the bed searching for her nightdress when his deep voice came from her behind.. " Your searching for this.. " ..
She turned around to see him sitting on one elbow with sleepy eyes , in one hand he held her nighty.. He looked sinfully inviting in the deep dark room as she stared at him shamelessly.. Keeping a straight face she took the nighty from his hand as he raised his eyebrow in surprise.. " Ahhh now thats unfair.. Why are you getting up as if nothing happened.. "
She shot him a look with a teasing smile.. " Tchh Mr.Mallik what do you expect from me.. You think i will get up from the bed blushing and thinking in mind ohh what a lovely night it was.. " Wasnt it just what i felt.. Shilpa argued in her mind but maintained her calm look as she noticed his expression change.. " No actually i was expecting you would get up from bed blush to the core and think how much you want be again in the same way i claimed you last night passionately.. So much passion that you will think before walking around.. "
She turned around taking a sharp intake of breath.. Does he hold a copyright of reading minds... But his words rang in her mind , a shiver ran through her spine as she put the nighty on with trembling hands..
He set up on the bed and leaned to the headboard folding hands.. " Why are you dressing up.. ? "
She turned back at him passing a look.. " So whatelse do you expect.. "
He grinned devilishly, for a minute she despised thinking why did he have to look so good eventhough he teased.. " I expect you to roam around the house without this piece of cloth.. "
Her eyes grew wide as she ran a hand through her hair.. " Naked.. Are you joking.. ? What if someone shows up.. ? What if Someone.. "
He interrupted her as she started to blabber getting nervous.. " Whose here today.. Just you and me Remember.. No dog No Stella.. Actually i was thinking why not give them a big holiday.. "
She walked upto the door and turned around facing him with a amused smile.. " A big Holiday.. Well i can deal with it but how many days.. "
He grinned widely getting up from bed excited.. " A big Holiday of some years.. "
Her smile faded as she spoke gritting her teeth.. " Get lost Armaan.. "
She noticed him trying to speak while tying the bed sheet around his waist.. Bad Choice Mallik.. The words Rang in her mind as she drank the delicious sight of him.. Why did he always had to choose the most wicked way.. Stammering she spoke quickly.. " What are you doing Armaan.. Bad sheets.. "
He put his hands on his hips frowning.. " Whatelse.. I cant get up from bed naked.. I think we should be equal right.. If your fully clothes i also have the right to be fully clothed.. "
Shilpa shook her head throwing his jeans at him... " Then where something sensible to equal.. Dont you come out wearing those sheets.. "

A slight giggle escaped from her lips as she recalled their argument back in the bedroom.. She couldnt believe they always fought on silly things.. But now it had become such a normal thing for both of them.. Infact she found out that the arguing part was the thing spicing up their relationship most.. She tried to hide her smile as he walked inside the kitchen rubbing his neck.. " Are you making breakfast.. ? "
She shrug her shoulders getting up two cups.. " No just coffee now.. Are you up for it.. ? Or you want me to fix something to eat for you.. "
He gave a faint smile making her smile.. " Coffee would do.. So what do you plan to do today.. And dont bother to ask me you already know bedroom is my suggestion.. "
She rolled her eyes thinking a bit what to do.. Bedroom idea found too much tempting for her.. But then something clicked in her mind.. She glanced at him smiling sweetly.. " I know a interesting thing to do.. Talk.."
He scoffed shifting back to take chair to sit.. " Talking.. ? I just planned a day all alone for us and you want to spend it talking.. "
Her expressions drew serious as she set infront of him holding her mug.. "We really need to speak Armaan.. Get to know eachother better.. What do i know about the real you.. What do you know about real me.. ? "
He drank coffee from his mug and gave a nod shrugging his shoulders.. "Fine what do you wish to know about me.. I will tell you.. "
She shot her very first question making him choke his drink.. " How many girls before me.. ? "
He put his coffee on table and rubbed his chest.. " What you mean how many girls.. I havent married anyone before you or even trapped anyone to marry with me.. You are my first wife.. Be proud of it.. "
Shilpa shook her head muttering to herself.. Arrogant man... She tried to speak when he spoke gently.. " If you are trying to find out that whether i have dated , yes i did back in my college days but as years passed i didint date anyone until my eyes came on you.. "
She gave a slow nod knowing the reason behind his withdrawal towards relationships.. They both have suffered in life.. But she knew he had always suffered more than her through out his life.. Her chain of thoughts broke as he spoke.. " Now tell me about you Shilpa Malhotra.. What was ur teenage story.. "
She smiled as her thoughts rushed back to the silly teenage memories.. A ting of jealousy rose in his heart seeing the smile.. Was there really someone special back in that time.. She looked at him and spoke.. " I was in my teenage years back in high school.. I didint have much money to finance studies back then.. It was when as a part time job i started to work in a friendly small restaurant.. Everything was doing good.. I was happy , they were happy with my work.. And then joined that Wanna be women Simmy"
His lips twitched in amusement seeing her angry.. He expected to hear about a tough love crush towards someone but instead she was speaking about a girl.. " That Simmy.. She came there and started to takeover everything.. Becauze of her i was ignored and my work wasnt appreciated.. I would just stay in corner and glare at her while she would speak in her sugary tone to everyone.. "
He shook his head grinning widely.. " Now that really speaks your reaction towards Tina.. "
She ignored his words and continued with her story.. " I would just despise her.. She used to flirt around with everyone and sometimes put me in problem.. I just hated her so much that whenever i saw her my blood boil.. Just my mind would scream i want to strangle her neck.. That wanna be women was ruining my work.. I knew i had to do something solid and I did."
Dont tell me you Killed her... The thought escaped from his mind as he stared at her incredulously.. He couldnt believe silly thoughts were running in his mind as he spoke softly.. " And what did you do to her.. ? "
She glanced at him and frowned.. " OFCOURSE I DID SOMETHING.. I just had to break her so called attitude So i... Resigned from that place.. "
He blinked for a minute as he actually realized what she have said.. Armaan broke into laughter as Shilpa set looking at him suspiciously.. "Whatelse were you expecting me to say then.. ? "
He shook her head knowing it was better that the silly thought remains in his mind.. " Forget it.. Lets have some breakfast and get back to something else.. "

She sighed as she tried to shake him off from sleep while he lay beside her ignoring her please.. She glanced at the clock to see it was just past 4 in evening.. And still they were on bed thanxs to Armaan.. She nudged him one more time when he turned away from her groaning.. " Let me sleep.. You have made me do so much exercise let me get some rest.. "
Shilpa hit him lightly and spoke angrily.. " Shut up Armaan.. We are on bed from hours Now i am BORED.. ! Atleast let me get up.. "
With the mention of getting up he moved his hand on her waist possessively , while shifting his face on the crook of her neck kissing her neck lightly.. She closed her eyes gritting her teeth and shook him.. "I am not at all sleepy Armaan.. "
He surprised her by raising upto her face level staring down at her.. " I thought u were sleeping.. "
He chuckled shaking his head.. " I was just resting with closed eyes.. Shilpa i need to ask you something.. "
She smiled slowly tracing her fingers down on his chest teasing him badly.. He groaned lightly and shot her a look.. " Be like a good girl and listen to me.. "
She gave a nod closing her eyes when he spoke quietly.. " You didint mention about any crush or lover you had in teenage years.. "
She opened her eyes and blinked twice, Shilpa frowned when he spoke again.. " I am just saying cauxe.. I still feel guilty that i tricked you to marry me.. I found it Sinfully right thing to do.. Was there anyone else in your past.. Whom you had wished to be with all time.. "
He knew how much jealousy rose in his heart as he spoke the words.. But he knew he had to clear it out from her.. To clear out the guilt from his mind..
She waited long time before answering his question.. He waited patiently when she slowly moved her hands on his neck staring right in his eyes.. "There is a problem Armaan Mallik.. I was too buxy in my own world to be involved with anyone before.. To even realize anything about love.. Until you came and shook off my whole world.. "
He tried to speak when she put her finger on his lips making him go silent.."There is one more problem.. And the problem is related with you tricking me into Marriage.. "
His heart clenched thinking maybe she was upset regarding what he did.. Was she still holding the past with her.. Did she forgive him for what he did.. Several questions rang in his mind when he felt her lips on his kissing him with such a passion that his heart started to beat wildly.. He couldnt help but close his eyes and respond back to her while holding her face.. She kissed him letting go off her hesitation.. She just wanted to love him deeply just like the way he loved her immensely.. She broke the kiss and traced his lips speaking in a raspy voice.. " Armaan do you know whats the smartest thing you have ever done.. "
He raised his eyebrow when she spoke teasingly.. " Tricking me to marry with you.. "
He shot a laugh in amusement caressing her cheek... Suddenly the past and the guilt started to fade away... " And you are happy about it.. "
She glanced at him lovingly with her eyes full of spark.. " Not just happy.. I am glad you made me your wife Armaan Mallik.. "

***************************************
She tried to walk off when he held corner of her Sari pulling her close..
She glanced at him as a teasing smile formed in his lips.. " Do you Believe love in First sight or should i walk by again.. Mrs. Mallik ? "
Shilpa raised her eyebrow folding her arms.. One liner from Armaan.. Now that was something surprising.. Deciding to play off with him in it She spoke sweetly.. " Sure i wont mind i you try one more time.. Mr.Mallik.. "
_______________________________

Armaan hid his smile as he spoke authoritatively.. " As i said one of intern would be going on medical camp for two weeks..And i have decided it would be Dr.Tina who would go.. Along with Dr.Rahul.."
Rahul's smile faded as his face sobered instantly.. " Ohhh Ok "
Muskaan : NO WAY.. !!

Part 39


She glanced back startled as she heard the click of the door.. Shilpa noticed Armaan who walked inside and closed the cabin , he passed a crooked smile at her while she raised her eyebrow.. " Why are you locking the door.."
He passed a innocent look at her hiding his smile.." Is there a problem in it..?"
For a second she tried to play on with the game.. Keeping a straight face she went back to her file.. " Ofcourse this is not our bedroom.. "
Shilpa almost gasped as she felt his hot breath on her neck sending shivers down her body.. He stood leaning down at her staring at her intently.. "I wont mind making it a bedroom.."
A smile formed on her lips as she tried to hide her nervousness.. " Stop joking Armaan.. Get back to work.."
He snorted looking at his desk shaking his head.. " Do i look like in a mood to do any work.. I only have one thing in mind haunting me from several hours.. "
She shook her head glancing down at her work.. " You are Impossible Armaan.."
Armaan took away the file from her hand ignoring her protests, he placed it on the table and moved his hand on the back of her neck pulling her face upto his level.. " I am Possible Mallik.. I can do any possible thing with you Mrs.Mallik, as i am Madly, Deeply in love with you.. "
She sighed closing her eyes as he brushed his lips on hers.. She trembled with the touch of his manly lips on her soft petals.. He arched her head up and kissed her deeply blocking away all second thoughts from her mind.. With the touch of his lips her body started to respond back to him and she kissed him passionately.. As he broke the kiss tracing his lips down her chin.. Shilpa pulled him upto her face level and spoke breathlessly.. " You are making it impossible for me to work.. We cant work like this.. "
He chuckled and pulled her up gathering her in his embrace.. He traced her cheeks with his knuckles and whispered huskily.. " Its fun to work as a newly married couple.. More fun while doing work.. "
Shilpa pushed him back playfully getting out of his grip.. With a teasing smirk on her lips she replied.. " This is a hospital Dr. Armaan Mallik.. I dont think your charm will work on a junior doctor here.. "
He grinned at her words , She tried to walk off when he held corner of her Sari pulling her close..
She glanced at him as a teasing smile formed in his lips.. " Do you Believe love in First sight or should i walk by again.. Mrs. Mallik ? "
Shilpa raised her eyebrow folding her arms.. One liner from Armaan.. Now that was something surprising.. Deciding to play off with him in it She spoke sweetly.. " Sure i wont mind i you try one more time.. Mr.Mallik.. "
Hiding his smile he approached her with a serious look on his face.. She moved backwards leaning do the door when he came close and leaned closed to her eyes and whispered with his full of huskiness.. " Then let me just walk by u one more time.. If you still dont believe i shall give one try near Tina.. Bye "
She stood dumbfounded for a minute as he left the cabin grinning.. As she realized what he had said Shilpa stomped her foot and followed him outside gritting her teeth " Mallik "

Armaan stood in nurse station going through his files as he felt footsteps of someone near him.. He glanced up to see Shilpa who came towards him ofcourse with a foul mood , he couldnt help but grin seeing her face.. "Goodmorning Dr.Shilpa Mallik.. "
Shilpa stood infront of him and stared at him with a frown.. And then folding her arms she spoke sarcastically.. " GoodMorning Dr.Mallik Looks like you have forgotten you were talking to me sometime back.. "
He glanced back at her putting up a innocent look.. " Why , werent you just saying we should behave as respective Doctors in hospital.. Dr.Shilpa "
She narrowed her eyes at him and forced a fake smile.. " Sure Dr.Armaan as you say.. "
Armaan chuckled and tried to console her when everything gathered around him waiting for the duties.. Armaan cleared his throat and spoke loudly.. " Well Attention Guys.. I have to make a very big Announcement Today "
Everyone frowned at his words , Armaan hid his smile as he spoke authoritatively.. " As i said one of intern would be going on medical camp for two weeks..And i have decided it would be Dr.Tina who would go.. Along with Dr.Rahul.."
Rahul's smile faded as his face sobered instantly.. He glanced at Muskaan who stood stunned and at Tina who was surprised with a smile." Ohhh Ok "
But Muskaan's mind started to race as she heard Armaan say the words.. Rahul with Tina.. She had already witnessed how much jealousy Shilpa had face when Tina was clinging with Armaan.. NO NO Rahul and Tinaa Going Together ??
Muskaan : NO WAY.. !!
Everyone glanced at her with Baffled expressions.. Shilpa and Anjali frowned while Tina rolled her eyes at her.. Rahul gave a sorry look while Armaan and Atul passed a confused look.. Armaan glanced at Muskaan's worried face and spoke gently.. " Any problem Dr Muskaan ? "
Muskaan tried to speak when Rahul passed a warning look at her.. Glaring at him She glanced at Armaan and spoke sadly.. " Nothing Dr Armaan.. Can i get my Duty.. ? "

Shilpa kept walking in the corridor talking with Anjali .. " Did you Notice how Muskaan reacted.. NOO WAY.. What was that ? "
Anjali laughed on that.. " Cant u see on her face.. Something is badly cooking between Rahul and Muskaan , and they think they are good hiding but i see everything.. "
Shilpa passed a surprise look at her.. " And here i thought it was Only me having that confusion.. Surely something is cooking up between them.."
Armaan joined them from behind and spoke.. " Whats cooking where ? "
Shilpa turned around startled and narrowed her eyes at him reminding him she was still angry.. Armaan passed a sorry look and glanced at Anjali who raised her eyebrow at them.. " Nothing is cooking.. Now whats up with you both.. "
Armaan snatched Shilpa's hand and passed a smile to Anjali.. " Sorry Anjie i am going to borrow my wife for now.. If you need to talk with someone go and find your husband "
Anjali scowled while Shilpa passed a threatened look at him.. Armaan dragged her from there as Anjali spoke loudly.. " You are soo mean Armaan Mallik.. "
Armaan glanced at her with a smile passing a wink.. " Tell me something new Anjie.. "
Anjali shook her head smiling and headed back to Locker room tiredly.. As she got close she started to hear some weird noises.. Frowning she walked inside and gaped as she noticed the scene infront of her.. Atul and Rahul set infront of Muskaan on knees while she kept crying nonstop.. " Omg Muskaan what happened.. ?? "
Muskaan started to cry more loud as she noticed Anjali.. Pushing away Rahul she ran to Anjali and hugged her crying.. Atul glanced at Rahul who was lying on the floor , he moved forward and got him up.. " This is not Good Man.. I cant believe you didint tell me.. "
Rahul ran a hand in his hair helplessly.. " I didint knew myself this would happen.. I am going to meet bro now and Tell him i am not going with Tina.."
Atul and Muskaan glanced at him with hopeful eyes while Anjali stood confused over the whole situation.. Rahul noticed them eying him so he sank into the bench backing out.. " I dont dare to go and Tell him.. If i say No he will ask WHY.. "
Muskaan moved back and stared at Rahul and retorted in anger.. " You are such a coward RAHUL.. I hate you I know you just want to go with that Tina, You know What go and enjoy with her I DONT GIVE A DAMN CARE.. Looser "
Muskaan stormed out of the locker room while Anjali stood baffled.. She turned back to Rahul glaring at him when Atul came to his rescue.. " Go after her and Talk.. Rahul dont be a dumb GO NOW.. "
Rahul gave a slow nod and ran out of the locker room.. Anjali marched up to Atul and folded her arms giving him a look.. " Now care to explain me what on the earth is going on Here.. ?? "
Atul shook his head and whispered to Anjali the whole story.. As he kept telling , Anjali's eyes grew wide listening to his words.. " OH MY GOD.. Are you Joking.. "
Atul sighed rubbing his neck.. " Funnily its true.. Did you see that Tina she is beaming up suddenly as Rahul is accompanying her.. We need to talk to Armaan.. "
Anjali frowned disagreeing.. " What.. Now suddenly she is finding Rahul Admirable.. ? Right now its Shilpa who convince Armaan to change his mind.. "
Atul slowly smiled nodding.. " Yea right Shilpa.. She can help us.. "
With the mention of her name Shilpa walked inside passing a big smile.. "Hey Guys.. Whats Happening.. "
Anjali and Atul passed a big smile and her and spoke at the sametime.. "Finally Shilpa.. ! "
Shilpa passed a suspicious look at them and spoke with a nervous Laugh.."What did i do ? "

******************************************
Shilpa to get stuck between Muskaan and Armaan ?

Muskaan cleared her tears and passed a sad smile at Shilpa.. Shilpa's heart went out for her seeing the sadness in her eyes.. " Muskaan.. "
Muskaan clutched Shilpa's hand and glanced at her hopefully.. " Shilpa plzz can u talk to Armaan and tell him to change his mind on sending Rahul .. Please Shilpa "

Armaan glanced at her carefully and averted his gaze away from her.. " You dont know what you are asking for Shilpa.. "
Shilpa moved close to him and spoke softly.. " Come on Armaan.. Rahul doesnt want to go with Tina.. Plzz change ur mind.. "
Armaan sighed and looked at her.. " Do you know what change in my decision would mean..?"
Shilpa frowned shaking her head when he spoke holding her hands in his deep voice.. "If i change my decision on sending Rahul.. That would mean I MYSELF have to go with Tina on this Medical Camp "
