As sunrays hit his face, arjun rubbed his eyes and shifted in little in his sleep. though in his sleep, he searched beside him on bed his better half. when he could not find anyone apart from pillow and blanket, his eyes shoot open unwillingly. he looked here and there, eyes desperately searching for her...ah, there she is.''good morning hubby dear.'' she said sweetly, looking at him through mirror, and arjun hugged his pillow while staring at her, smiling cutely, when was busy combing her hair. she was dressed for office, in her usual jeans and deep blue shirt. arjun continued to look lovingly at the angel in front of her, smiling his cute smile.
''come on get up, we are going to be late.'' she turned to him and started to set the blanket. arjun childishly hold a corner, and she raised an eyebrow at him.
''kya riya, kahan mujhe laga mera subah ek good morning kiss se start hoga...aur yaha tum bed thik karne mein lagi huyi ho.'' he made a face, and riya, his wife from past 6 months, chuckled at him. he looked away, pouting his lips, and riya keep the blanket on the bed again, and went near him.
though he was not looking at her, still he can hear her footsteps coming to him. he smirked little, and expected a hug from her. she came near him, and placed her face near his face.
he closed his eyes in anticipation, while riya smiled mischievously. she seductively whispered into his ear, ''get ready arjun, warna hum late ho jayenge.''
his eyes shoot up open once again, but she was too quick. she ran away from him, while arjun was now on his feet, glaring at her.
''chalo, maharaj bed se to utre.'' she laughed out loud, and arjun tried to keep a straight face, and but failed miserably. he also started to laugh, and pulled her near him.
sun, sun le na, sun le na kehna tu
ohh, gaflat mein, gaflat mein na rehne tu
jo din tere dil ke honge, to hogi meri raina
tu abhi bhi soch samajh le, ke phir ye na kehna...
ki tere mere beech mein kya hain?
arjun tried to take advantage of this closeness, and leaned on her, but riya smacked his shoulder and pushed him. she again picked up the blanket to fold it, but arjun hold the corner, thus stopping her from doing her work.
tere mere beech mein kya hain?
chaddar!
ho, chaddar khaddar ki, armaa hain resham ke...
she keep the blanket yet again on the bed, and now picked a towel. before arjun could do anything more, she throw the towel on his face, but the latter caught it in right time. he made a face again, but his pouting face didnt work as riya pushed him to the bathroom. she pushed him inside, and closed the door, not before shaking her head at his childishness and laughing at her hot cum cute husband!
mili mili hain zara
khili khili hain
finally chali hain meri love life
gili gili hain zara
khili khili hain
literally silly hain meri love life
now when finally riya was able to fix her bed, she could not help but think over the past 6 months of her marriage life. her mind drifted back when the first time she entered ETF, her office, as a research specialist. the first time when riya met arjun; the first time they went on a date; the first time arjun said those three words to her; it still felt like a dream when arjun proposed her after 3 months of dating. all said it was too soon to get married, but nothing stopped them after they made their decision. and the decision proved right so far...both of them are very happy in this marriage.
soon her hubby dear was on dining table, and after finishing breakfast, both officers were ready, and were heading towards ETF office. but like always, riya forgot to take her phone from dining table. arjun gave her it in car when she was desperately searching it in her bag, earning a relieved smile and peck on cheek in return.
''good morning guys!'' riya greeted cheerfully to her two BFFs, and her husband went to his cabin, giving the trio privacy. as soon as the good mornings and HI s were over, the trio were now gossiping, laughing, teasing each other.
arjun shook his head and smirked in curiosity as he heard trio's free laugh. he always wondered what they were talking, but of course he never asked riya about it. he was again going back in his file, when the door flew open and the chai wala entered.
''saab, apki chai.''
the chai wala placed his favorite cutting chai on table, and arjun looked through glass wall, only to meet her eyes. it was her daily routine...ordering his chai. he smiled warmly, eyes glowing with the love for her, while the other winked at him.
his mouth was o shape in surprise, but then he laughed aloud, causing the chai wala jump in response. the chai wala shot him a "what the" look, and arjun sipped his chai, the smile refused to leave his lips.
ae, sun, sun le na , sun mera kehna tu
ohhh, gaflat mein, gaflat mein na rehna tu
jo neend tu ne cheen li to, to main bhi loonga chaina
tu abhi bhi soch samajh le, ke phir ye na kehna
ke tere mere beech mein kya hain...?
Baatein !
lambi baatein hain choti si raatein hain...
soon Rathore, the chief of ETF entered, thus ending the picnic of trio. he announced there is a new case, and now team ETF were heading for the crime scene.
it was a murder of a senior citizen. he was living with his son and grandchildren in a old house in juhu. none was present in the house when he was murdered. his room was totally messed up; everything, his clothes, books, vases, were on the floor, making it look like some theif entered and accidentally killed him. but arjun's 6th sense refused to believe this theory and he concluded there is more than what meets the eye.
the team came back, and was working very hard to solve it. but it was proving wrong, as none had any motive to kill this old man. when everyone was frustrated, suddenly riya remembered something and ran toward evidence room.
she came back after 2 minutes, and showed the team a LIC policy worth 70 lacs. according to policy, if something happen to the victim, the policy money will go to his son. so now motive as well as who is the killer.
while the other team members were happy and praising riya for her quick thinking, arjun glared at her. she was confused at his action.
''arj...sir?'' she asked hesitant. all looked at arjun.
''tumne pehle ye papers kyu nahi dikhaye?'' he asked through gritted teeth. riya's heart skipped a beat.
''woh...sorry, i forgot...'' she never finished her apology as arjun started to shout at her.
''tum ek important document ko bhul gayi? how could you? laparvahi ki bhi hadd hoti hai! '' he finished his words, and still glared murderously at her. all expected waterworks from riya now, and her two BFFs were looking at her with sympathy, but she was far behind from crying. she lowered her face, and sincerely said, ''sorry sir.''
as soon as riya apologised, arjun started to feel guilty. shit! how could he shout like that? she was not only a team mate now, she is now his wife. he should not have done that.
the day passed as team caught the son of victim and interrogate him, and at last put him behind bars. in this hectic schedule, arjun didnt get a chance to apologize. when he got, he came to know riya left with shree chotu for dinner. he tried her phone, but she cut his call.
''oh damn...i am in trouble!'' he muttered as he tried her phone for 16th time and she cut it. he quickly think of something, and smirked.
he reached his house, and was surprised to find the main door unlocked. riya is back?
''riya?'' he called her out, but she didnt reply. he went toward kitchen area, and there she is!
holding a knife in hand, she was chopping vegetable, her face red with anger, she was muttering something to herself. as soon as her eyes fell on him, she gave her a murderous glare. he felt like she can literally grill him in the fire of her eyes.
''tum dinner pe nahi gayi?'' arjun asked cautiously, waiting for her reaction. she muttered something in her breath.
''office e chillabe, ar barite norom achoron korbe. kivabe sobar samne amake boklo! boss hoyeche to ki? ekhon amar husband o! kintu na, chillano ta to shovab e dariye geche! mone hoy ki...'' with that, she stabbed the knife deep into the potato, and arjun can actually hear the potato's yelling under her torture. (he will shout in office, and will be good boy in home. how he shout at me in front of all! boss so what, he is my husband now! but no,yelling at me has become a habit for him! sometime i feel like...)
''sorry baby...'' he started; though he didnt understand what she was muttering , he understood that its bengali and she was very angry at him!
''oh, ekhon sorry beroche? chillanor bela mone chilo na?'' she again stabbed the knife hard on potato, and now arjun actually could imagine himself in place of potato. (oh, now he is saying sorry! didnt remember during shouting, eh?)
arjun now felt little angry at her anger. " riya, you were at fault, so i shout at you. ab bola na sorry.''
this snapped riya out of her silent bengali torture. before arjun knew, she started to throw potato, the other vegetables and forks /spoons at him. arjun dived gracefully to avoid it, and riya's bengali was continuing with the throwing program, ''ekhon abar amake bokche? bah...sorry to bole ni, mone holo amake uddhar korche! bariteo amar upor chillabe? ebar dekachi moza...'' ( now he is again shouting at me? wow, like he is doing me favour by apologising! now he will shout at me in house too? let me show him...'')
after some 2 - 3 minutes, riya was done with her throwing session, and arjun was busy to shield himself behind the couch. as each were expecting others reaction, they both started to laugh at the same time, shaking their head at the halat of room; the vegetables and spoons and forks lying on the floor. arjun went near her, and hugged her tight.
''really sorry...kaan pakadke.'' he apologized sincerely, and riya nodded, thus fogiving him, but not before giving a warning, ''arjun rawte! agar agli baar tumne aisa kuch kiya, to main mayke chali jaoongi.''
arjun chuckled at her words, and kissed her hair, ''do you realise we just had out first fight after marriage?''
riya's eyes went wide with surprise, then she also chuckled. eyeing the halat of the room by her throwing session, she replied, ''what an after affect of fight!''
arjun laughed out loud, and then freed her, ''i will set things...my punishment.''
so, as per his punishment, arjun started to keep things back in place and fix kitchen, while riya sat on kitchen self, ordering on him.
tere beech mein kabhi jo raaz ho koi,
dhup mein chhipi chhipi kahin jo raat ho koi,
tere mere beech mein kabhi jo baat ho koi,
jeet mein chhipi chhipi kahin pe maat ho koi,
puchhunga haule se, haule se bhi janoonga,
janoonga main haule se, tera har armaan,
ahaan?
armaan khule hain ziddi bulbule han...
just imagine, ACP arjun rawte doing house works and someone giving him orders!
