PART 4
She was disturbed by her chain of thoughts when her phone rang… she picked it up and without listening she went on
Ridhima:hi armaan, tumne na meri jaan hi nikal di thi… kal raat ko kaha tha ki mom ki baat sun kar 10 minute mein call kar rahe ho… maine ek ghanta wait kiya aur tum ho ki… phir maine maa ko phone kiya aur tab jaakar so paayi hun
He smiled at her innocence and then answered
Armaan:relax basket….main kal raat ko mom ke paas gaya..she asked me to help her in some preparations…kuch gifts vagarah wrap hone the… baaki to event managers ne kar diye the but I wanted ki dad, mom, anji ,muskaan, rahul and atul ke gifts main khud select karun and wrap bhi karun so usme time kab nikal gaya pata hi nahi laga… by the time I was back it was three so I felt that you would be sleeping so I thought not to disturb you…I am sorry
Ridhima:acha ab meri photo rakho aur palang par se utho, jaakar fresh ho and phir dining table par jaakar nashtaa karo…kamre mein nahi
Armaan:kya yaar… acha tumhe kaise pata ki main abhi tak palang par hun aur vo bhi tumhaari photo dekh raha hun
Ridhima:i know you too well for that mr mallik
Armaan:hard luck to be mrs mallik to be(ridhima blushed on this)… I know ki tum jaanti ho ki subah 10 bajeh main yahi karta hun because I call you up as soon as I wake up and I know that you do the same lekin filhaal is samay aap neeche jaaiye mom aapka naashte par wait kar rahi hongi
Ridhima:okk bye
She just gets out of her room but her phone rings again
Ridhima:bolo armaan
Armaan:ridhima maine ye nahi kaha tha ki bina nahaye huye jaao
Ridhima:kyun mera mann.. and vaise bhi ek mahine ki baat hai so main apna routine change nahi kar rahi… main neeche jaaungi, mom ko good morning kiss dungi phir night suit mein hi breakfast karungi and uske baad araam se music sunungi..phir naahungi and uske baad sochungi kya karna hai
Armaan:ok as you wish dear
Ridhima comes down looking very happy. As soon as she has stepped down the last step she spots armaan along with his mom and dad sitting in the drawing room.. her eyes get fixed on armaan as she sees him giggling along with the others… then suddenly she realizes that she is in her night suit and she turns back to go to her room
Armaan:kahan jaa rahi ho basket tumhe to night suit mein breakfast karna tha and main to apne ghar par is samay so raha tha right
Ridhima is so damn embarrassed
Ridhima:vo armaan, main abhi aayi
Suddenly she hears anjali and atul speaking the same dialogues that she and armaan spoke on the phone.. she is so embarassed that she just wants to run away from there
Ridhima turns and starts leaving
Armaan goes after her
Armaan:kya hua dr ridhima
Ridhima:armaan tumne unhe sab kuch kyun bola
Armaan:sweetheart maine unhe kuch nahi bola…unhone na zabardasti mera phone loudspeaker par kar diya tha
Ridhima:aur tum mujhe bol nahi paaye
Armaan:main to kehne jaa raha tha lekin na dad ne mujhe aankh dikha di aur tum to jaanti hi ho ki mujhe unse kitna dar lagta hai
Ridhima:kya papa bhi
Armaan:haan ji
Ridhima:ab main kya karun sab mujhe bahut chidaayenge
Armaan:kisi ki itni himmat ki sherni se panga le
He ran from there as he knew he was in for trouble. She ran after him but his pace was too fast for her. She followed him downstairs and finally she picked up a cushion and hit him from behind.
He turned and caught that cushion and went closer to her and handed her the cushion
Armaan: kya hua ridhima, ab tumhe nahi nahana
Ridhima: armaan (she turned and went upstairs)
She came back clad in a saree as padma told her that her in-laws were here for some shagun ceremony
Armaan looked towards her and it was difficult for him to move his gaze. Seeing his expression she blushed hard.
She came there and was going towards the kitchen so that she could serve coffee to her in-laws
Ananya:ridhima, beta hum tumse milne aaye aur tum humaare paas aati hi nahi. Kahaan ja rahi ho
Ridhima:vo mumma main abhi aapke liye coffee layi
Yash:ridhima beta tum idhar aakar baitho…
Ridhima:papa main bas abhi
Ananya:armaan comeon get up meri beti mere paas baithegi and tum aaj hum sab ke liye coffee banaoge … meri beti kitchen mein nahi jaayegi… understood
Armaan:but mom
Ridhima:mumma rehne dijiye main laati hun
Ananya:ridhima
Ridhima sat down and armaan headed to the kitchen
Armaan headed to the kitchen and found a note there and yes it was from ridhima
{ GUYS AFTER WRITING RIDHIMA HAD KISSED THE NOTE AND HER LIPSTICK MARKS STILL RESTED THERE… }
He kissed the note
Armaan: ye maa bhi na … saari image kharab kar di…. Aisa lag raha hai ki main koi ladki hun aur saare ke saare mujhe dekhne aaye hain but my basket knows everyone… thankyou basket
He carries the coffee to find everyone smiling
Yash:armaan ye tum chaar cup ek jaise aur paanchva different kyun laaye ho
Ananya:rehne dijiye na …vo cup ridhima ka hai...
Yash:tumhe kaise pata
Ananya:usme upar thank you likha hai
He looked up at ridhima and smiled…. She blinked her eyes trying to suppress her laughter
Everybody picked up the coffee and took a sip
Ananya:ye kya hai armaan tumne to coffee mein namak daal diya hai… it tastes horrible
Yash:haan armaan… tere ko coffee banani nahi aata
Even shashank and padma kept the cup back but they did not say anything. Armaans face flushed with embarassment.
He glared at ridhima and she tried to act innocent
Ananya:armaan comeon go and make another cup and this time carefully
Armaan:ek shart par… is baar basket mere ko help karegi
Ridhima:chalo
Armaan:ridhima apna cup tum andar lekar chalo baaki sab ka main le chalunga
They both left to the kitchen
Armaan:I hate you basket
Ridhima:but I love you armaan
Armaan:basket tumne mera sabke saamne mazaak kyun udvaaya
Ridhima:armaan I am sorry but main kya karti mere ko sab log ne force kiya tha
And armaan mujhe laga tum note padhne ke baad samajh jaoge usse khol ke dekho
The note looked like this
Note: armaan I knew that this was on the way because mumma mere se kaam nahi karvaati and tumse meri bahut seva karvaati hain but don't worry coffee banana is very simple… thoda sa paani chadao gas par... arrey abhi nahi…usse boil hone do..dont s\get restless…acha ab jitna pani tha utna hi doodh daalo that is about two cups… good now let it boil…ab upar vaali almirah kholo aur blue vaala box nikaalo…vo sugar hai careful… don't takeout the green one vo salt hai… aur coffee tumhe pata hai kahan hoti hai… now go and add two spoons of coffee and 2 spoons of sugar… ab use boil hone do aur phir use cup mein daal kar serve karo… samajh mein aaya
Lots of love
Your basket
Armaan:ridhima aaj tak tumne mujhe galat pehchana hai??
Ridhima:kya matlab
Armaan:matlab tumhe apni coffee taste karne ke baad samajh aayega
Ridhima hesitantly sips the coffe and finds it really tasty
Ridhima:armaan par isme to
Armaan:haan ji isme to sugar hi pada hua hai
Ridhima:tumne
Armaan:ji … note padne ke baad mujhe confusion hua… so instead of wasting my time in confusion maine taste kar ke dekh liya
Ridhima:to armaan phir tumne bahaar
Armaan:vo isliye kyunki tumhaari muskurahat ke liye main kuch bhi kar sakta hun anything at all
Ridhima: itna pyaar kyun karte ho mujhse armaan?
Armaan: (pulling her closer by the waist) basket humesha yahi sawaal kyun karti ho.. kitni bar kahun ki armaan aur ridhima alag nahi hai, sirf naam alag hain astitva ek hai… aur main jo karta hun apne liye karta hun kyunki main jab apne liye kuch karta hun to main jaanta hun ki indirectly vo tumhaare hothon par muskaan layegi
Armaan:acha ab ye batao ki vo sablog kaun the jinhone tumse ye karne ko kaha
Ridhima:armaan main nahi bataungi
Armaan:ridhima kyun un sab ko protect kar rahi ho
Ridhima:kyunki armaan main jaanti hun ki tum mujhe kuch nahi kahoge lekin un sab ka… mujhe sochne mein bhi darr lagta hai
Armaan:ridhima batao na please
Ridhima: pehle tum mujhe promise karo ki unse kuch nahi kahoge
Armaan:theek hai but if you give me a promise
Ridhima:aur vo kya
Armaan: vo ye ki aaj ke baad tum kabhi bhi mujhe sorry nahi kahogi, you know I feel very guilty … mujhe lagta hai ki somewhere something is going wrong… kuch acha nahi lagta… main hu na sorry bolne ke liye… ye right sirf mera hai
Ridhima:good for me… ab to main kuch bhi kar sakti hun
Armaan:to kya karna chahti ho tum???
Ridhima:ridhima main tumhe naam nahi batana chahti hun
She tried to leave but armaan caught her hand causing her to bump into his chest
Armaan:ridhima vo bataye bina to main tumhe jaane nahi dunga, jitna try karna hai karlo
Ridhima:acha to mujhe force kiya tha mere jeth jethaani ne
Armaan:matlab
Ridhima:matlab ye ki aapki request par jab rahul ka beta aapko chachu kehta hai to rahul aur muskaan mere to jeth jethaani hi huye na
Armaan:ridhima abhi krishiv(muskaan and rahul's son) theek se bol bhi nahi paata hai…and ye sirf unka idea to nahi ho sakta
Ridhima:aur aapki saali saahiba aur aapke bhai ne bhi
Armaan:sweetheart mere bhai ne mujhe bahut sweetly keh diya hai ki is shaadi mein vo aapki taraf se aapka bhai ban kar aaayega
Ridhima:jealous… vaise bhi tumhaari taraf itne saare log hain jaise muskaan, rahul
Armaan:theek hai basket… aur koi bhi tha kya?????????
Ridhima:aur mere nand nandoi ne
Armaan:what?
Ridhima:aur niki di aur abhi jiju ne
Armaan :what …. i mean niki di aa gayi??? (words could not express his excitement… he was so excited that words hardly came out of his mouth)
Nikita is armaan's sister . though she is a couple of years elder to him he still preferred to call her by her name sometimes and the rest he refers to her as di and even she wants him to not call her di. She is married to abhimanyu for 5 years now…yes she married at an early age… not too early but about 22…and she has twins… a girl and a boy… riya and ramik… both three years of age . Armaan is so attached to her that she was the first one to be told that he loved ridhima …even before ridhima was proposed.
Armaan rushed out of the kitchen and then turned back and asked:basket vo log hain kahaan
Ridhima:upar mere room mein sab log baatein kar rahe hain
Armaan rushed upstairs. He just went inside the room and seeing niki standing he just went and hugged her tight slightly lifting her off the ground. Separating from her he went on to hug abhi but seeing a disappointed look on his face and his hand outstretched for a handshake he just said a formal hi
Abhimanyu suddenly starts laughing and hugs armaan to finally give the latter a sigh of relief
Armaan:jiju you scared me
Abhi:did i?
Armaan:di where are my angels
Nikita always smiled seeing armaan refer to her kids as angels
Nikita:armaan they had a long journey.. they are in for some rest
Armaan: acha di tumne to kaha tha that you will be able to make it only by the sangeet
Nikita:yes I did
Abhi:you disappointed with our sudden arrival????
Armaan:ofcourse not jiju, lekin main aapse bahut gussa hun
Abhi:kyun
Armaan:kyunki aap meri di ka theek se khayaal hi nahi rakhte
Though abhimanyu knew he was joking still he was pissed off and niki laughed
Abhi:kyun ab maine kya kiya
Armaan:dekhiye na kitni patli ho gayi hai, koi ise dekh kar kahega ki do bachon ki ma hai... kahin koi meri khubsurat si behen ko uda kar na le jaaye aur aap khade dekhte hi rahein(well this was how armaan teased abhimanyu and even abhi enjoyed the jeeja-saala fights and this is why armaan enjoyed with anjali because those jeeja saali fights never made her upset)
Armaan::acha di aap ridhima se mili, mil hi li hongi varna sugar and salt game kaise khelti
Nikita:abhi tak tumhaari aadat gayi nahi apne questions ka answer khud dene ki? I pity ridhima and for your information main abhi tak use nahi mili.. maine rahul ko call kiya tha address puchne ke liye and then jab maine hasne ki aawaaz suni I knew that they were all at some mischief. On enquiry I realized that you are in for some trouble and then I talked to ridhima over the phone to assure that she fools you just the way you embarassed her in the morning
Armaan:wow ye acha hai, behen meri aur side ridhima ki
Nikita:tune hi to kaha tha ki tu aur ridhima alag nahi hai
The others realized that the brother sister duo needed some time to catch up so they went downstairs leaving the two alone
Nikita:so armaan, hum sab log yahaan kyun I mean ridhima ke gharwaalon par kitna load badh gaya hoga…. Today was no function just a get together and vo hum apne ghar par bhi kar sakte hain
Armaan:actually di abhi mom and dad don't know about my family background.. dr shashank was impressed with dad from their very first meeting so he did not find the need to enquire
Nikita:armaan don't tell me ki abhi tak yahaan par kisi ne tumhaara ghar nahi dekha hai
Armaan just shrugged his shoulders
Nikita: armaan comeon, do you realize how difficult it would be for ridhima.. that girl has not once seen the place she has to spend her entire life in, how would she just adjust… do you expect her to become familiar with your whereabouts just overnight, how can you? And your friends have never held any get togethers or what?
Armaan:ofcourse we have
Nikita:then
Armaan:actually I moved to a penthouse at bandra because it was nearer to my workplace and moreover managing such a huge place was not within my reach
Nikita:armaan I like this attitude in you that you just are not obssessed to your wealth but do you realize that it is yours and that is where you belong to… you need to make ridhima familiar… she should just come over and get her bedroom settled according to her and while the servants would do the needed I can just chat over to her and know her more
Armaan:I think you are right anyways lets just go down, you need to meet ridhima na
Nikita:ok fine
They both leave to go downstairs and there they see ridhima along with the others in the living room. Armaans parents have left.
Nikita:armaan mom dad… werent they here
Armaan:they would have left, do they know that you are here??
Nikita:nup
Armaan:where is jiju??
Nikita:no idea…might be with riya and ramik
Armaan:I will just call him over
As he went upstairs a beautiful sight caught his eyes.. he saw abhimanyu sitting at the edge of the bed with riya on his lap and ramik sleeping as abhimanyu lightly patted his back. Armaan could just imagine himself like that in future.. he smiled and entered
Armaan:jiju.. … why don't you come over downstairs
Abhi:ok
They both went down to see nikita standing where she was talking over to someone on the phone. Abhimanyu looked at the clock and smiled to himself.
Armaan:kya hua jiju
abhi:mere papa daant kha rahe hai for refusing to taking his medicine… this is usual for niki and him
armaan too smiled thinking that how had nikita evolved from being a careless, pampered daughter and sister to a careful and loving daughter in law and wife
armaan made his way to ridhima and introduced her to nikita and abhimanyu
armaan:ridhima this is niki di and abhi jiju and di this is
nikita:your life! (she exclaimed as she saw ridhima turn red)
ridhima:hi
nikita:ridhima I should have guessed it, nobody can actually resist your charm, you are truly pretty
abhi:I agree
ridhima:nahi di, aisa kuch nahi hai.... why dont you people take a seat.. main aapke liye kuch refreshments laati hun
nikita:nothing now… anjali ne humein upar bahut khila diya tha anyways armaan we need to rush home or dad would be upset
armaan: ok you people chat up I will just get my angels
ridhima's eyes popped out as she heard it but she calmed herself and waited to see HIS angels
armaan:basket I am warning you.. don't try and be formal… my di is the world's best di
ridhima:armaan
armaan:haan ridhima
ridhima glared at him as he raised his eyebrows in question
armaan:sorry …ridhima
he turned to move upstairs as he saw the two kids awake and they were coming down the stairs… there was a confused look on their face as they were at this place for the first time but as soon as they saw him they just rushed downstairs
riya, ramik: maamu
as they ran armaan just kneeled down and took both of them in his arms
armaan:yes my angels…. Aap kaise ho
riya: we are good but we missed you a lot (she said as she kissed his cheek)
ramik:yeah and no one gave us chocolates(planting another kiss on his cheek)
armaan kissed them both
armaan:I missed you too and here are your chocolates
he said taking them out from his shirt's pocket
both the kids were happy seeing their chocolates
he stood up with the kids still in his arms and he turned towards ridhima and saw her lost in her own world looking at them and smiling
armaan:ridhima… ridhima
ridhima:haan...armaan
armaan:here meet my angels…riya and ramik
ridhima:hi (she said in a very friendly manner but the kids refrained from replying as they didn't know her.. ridhima was upset)
armaan: and angels this is my princess and your maami
as they heard this they remembered how their mother had told them about their maami and getting all excited they just wanted to go into her arms and talk to her
as armaan handled the kids to ridhima he saw a disappointed and angry niki standing there with her hands on her hips
armaan:kya hua di??
Nikita:apne angels ke chakkar mein mujhe bhul gaye
Armaan:kya???
Nikita:kya nahi, meri chocolate kahan hai???
Armaan:di aap choti si bachi ho
Nikita :kyun chocolate sirf bache kha sakte hai
He remembered how even ridhima loves chocolates and smiles
Armaan:nahi but still
Nikita:mujhe tumse baat nahi karni
Armaan:di baat to suno
Nikita:main abhi ke saath jaa rahi hun.... tum aate rehna apne angels ke saath
She turned to leave
Armaan:theek hai phir main ye chocolates apne angels ko hi de dunga
Nikita turned around all excited.. she saw lots of chocolates in armaan's hand and she came back and tugged at those and gave him a huge hug
Abhi:niki ye kya baat hui, main bhi to tumhe pichle paanch saal se har roz chocolate de raha hun… aur hug sirf usko
Niki:vo mera bhai hai
Abhi:and mai tumhaara husband hun
Armaan smiled at their silly banter
Nikita:vaise armaan tumhe to pata nahi tha ki humlog aaj aa rahe hain so ye chocolates kaise???
Armaan:last time bhi tumne yahi kiya tha so main pichle ek hafte se chocolates le kar ghum raha hun ki pata nahi tumlog kab tapak jaao
Nikita:armaan you know you cant lie to me
Armaan:kya yaar main apni life ki do sabse zyaada important ladkiyon se jhooth kyun nahi bol paata
Ridhima looked up at him giggling
Armaan:vo na ye chocolates basket ki thi but….
He looked at ridhima expecting to find her angry but she was smiling as ever. He knew how much she loves chocolates but still he should have guessed it ki she wont be angry over such a small topic.
Nikita looked over at ridhima
Nikita:I am sorry ridhima, mujhe nahi pata tha… but that does not mean you are getting them back… apne mr majnu se bolo that apni hone waali wife ko ye chocolates nahi dete, vo to heart shaped dark chocolates hoti hain
Ridhima smiled
As niki looked over at ria and ramik she said:comeon guys… ab humlog nana nanu ke paas chalenge
Ria: mujhe nahi jaana, mujhe yahaan maami ke saath rehna hai
She looked over at ramik and said
Nikita:theek hai so main aur ramik jaayenge aur hum icecream bhi khayenge
Ramik:mujhe bhi nahi chalna.. main bhi maami ke saath rahunga
Nikita:ria, ramik stop troubling your maami tumhaare maama unhe kam pareshaan nahi karte that even you people join in
Armaan:di..
Nikita:byee, comeon ria, ramik
Armaan also turns to leave but as soon as niki and abhi leave he turns back and handles a small heart shaped box to ridhima
Armaan: tumhe kya laga ki main tumhaari chocolates bhul jaunga
Ridhima:armaan itna mat bigaado mere ko, zindagi bhar jhel nahi paaoge
Armaan:ridhima main bigaad nahi raha hun, it is just that I feel ki tumhaari har pasand meri manzil hai…
Ridhima:kaun si movie ka dialogue hai armaan, itni choti si chocolates ke peeche tumne waste kar diya,,, ab tumhe aur dhundne padenge so tum jao movies dekhne aur main jaati hun apni chocolates khaane
Armaan:ok bye basket
Ridhima:bye
Armaan turns to go but then turns back and plants a kiss on her cheek and shouts: byeee

HEYYA GUYS...

She was disturbed by her chain of thoughts when her phone rang… she picked it up and without listening she went on

Suddenly she hears anjali and atul speaking the same dialogues that she and armaan spoke on the phone.. she is so embarassed that she just wants to run away from there
Ridhima turns and starts leaving
Armaan goes after her
Armaan:kya hua dr ridhima
Ridhima:armaan tumne unhe sab kuch kyun bola
Armaan:sweetheart maine unhe kuch nahi bola…unhone na zabardasti mera phone loudspeaker par kar diya tha
Ridhima:aur tum mujhe bol nahi paaye

Ridhima:kya papa bhi
Armaan:haan ji
Ridhima:ab main kya karun sab mujhe bahut chidaayenge

He ran from there as he knew he was in for trouble. She ran after him but his pace was too fast for her. She followed him downstairs and finally she picked up a cushion and hit him from behind.

Armaan looked towards her and it was difficult for him to move his gaze. Seeing his expression she blushed hard.
She came there and was going towards the kitchen so that she could serve coffee to her in-laws
Ananya:ridhima, beta hum tumse milne aaye aur tum humaare paas aati hi nahi. Kahaan ja rahi ho

Armaan:but mom
Ridhima:mumma rehne dijiye main laati hun
Ananya:ridhima
Ridhima sat down and armaan headed to the kitchen
Armaan headed to the kitchen and found a note there and yes it was from ridhima
{ GUYS AFTER WRITING RIDHIMA HAD KISSED THE NOTE AND HER LIPSTICK MARKS STILL RESTED THERE… }
He kissed the note
Armaan: ye maa bhi na … saari image kharab kar di…. Aisa lag raha hai ki main koi ladki hun aur saare ke saare mujhe dekhne aaye hain but my basket knows everyone… thankyou basket
He carries the coffee to find everyone smiling
Yash:armaan ye tum chaar cup ek jaise aur paanchva different kyun laaye ho
Ananya:rehne dijiye na …vo cup ridhima ka hai...
Yash:tumhe kaise pata
Ananya:usme upar thank you likha hai
He looked up at ridhima and smiled…. She blinked her eyes trying to suppress her laughter

Ridhima:tumne
Armaan:ji … note padne ke baad mujhe confusion hua… so instead of wasting my time in confusion maine taste kar ke dekh liya
Ridhima:to armaan phir tumne bahaar
Armaan:vo isliye kyunki tumhaari muskurahat ke liye main kuch bhi kar sakta hun anything at all
Ridhima: itna pyaar kyun karte ho mujhse armaan?
Armaan: (pulling her closer by the waist) basket humesha yahi sawaal kyun karti ho.. kitni bar kahun ki armaan aur ridhima alag nahi hai, sirf naam alag hain astitva ek hai… aur main jo karta hun apne liye karta hun kyunki main jab apne liye kuch karta hun to main jaanta hun ki indirectly vo tumhaare hothon par muskaan layegi
Armaan:acha ab ye batao ki vo sablog kaun the jinhone tumse ye karne ko kaha
Ridhima:armaan main nahi bataungi
Armaan:ridhima kyun un sab ko protect kar rahi ho
Ridhima:kyunki armaan main jaanti hun ki tum mujhe kuch nahi kahoge lekin un sab ka… mujhe sochne mein bhi darr lagta hai
Armaan:ridhima batao na please
Ridhima: pehle tum mujhe promise karo ki unse kuch nahi kahoge
Armaan:theek hai but if you give me a promise
Ridhima:aur vo kya
Armaan: vo ye ki aaj ke baad tum kabhi bhi mujhe sorry nahi kahogi, you know I feel very guilty … mujhe lagta hai ki somewhere something is going wrong… kuch acha nahi lagta… main hu na sorry bolne ke liye… ye right sirf mera hai
Ridhima:good for me… ab to main kuch bhi kar sakti hun
Armaan:to kya karna chahti ho tum???
Ridhima:ridhima main tumhe naam nahi batana chahti hun
She tried to leave but armaan caught her hand causing her to bump into his chest
Armaan:ridhima vo bataye bina to main tumhe jaane nahi dunga, jitna try karna hai karlo
Ridhima:acha to mujhe force kiya tha mere jeth jethaani ne
Armaan:matlab
Ridhima:matlab ye ki aapki request par jab rahul ka beta aapko chachu kehta hai to rahul aur muskaan mere to jeth jethaani hi huye na
Armaan:ridhima abhi krishiv(muskaan and rahul's son) theek se bol bhi nahi paata hai…and ye sirf unka idea to nahi ho sakta
Ridhima:aur aapki saali saahiba aur aapke bhai ne bhi
Armaan:sweetheart mere bhai ne mujhe bahut sweetly keh diya hai ki is shaadi mein vo aapki taraf se aapka bhai ban kar aaayega
Ridhima:jealous… vaise bhi tumhaari taraf itne saare log hain jaise muskaan, rahul
Armaan:theek hai basket… aur koi bhi tha kya?????????
Ridhima:aur mere nand nandoi ne
Armaan:what?
Ridhima:aur niki di aur abhi jiju ne
Armaan :what …. i mean niki di aa gayi??? (words could not express his excitement… he was so excited that words hardly came out of his mouth)
Nikita is armaan's sister . though she is a couple of years elder to him he still preferred to call her by her name sometimes and the rest he refers to her as di and even she wants him to not call her di. She is married to abhimanyu for 5 years now…yes she married at an early age… not too early but about 22…and she has twins… a girl and a boy… riya and ramik… both three years of age . Armaan is so attached to her that she was the first one to be told that he loved ridhima …even before ridhima was proposed.
Armaan rushed out of the kitchen and then turned back and asked:basket vo log hain kahaan
Ridhima:upar mere room mein sab log baatein kar rahe hain
Armaan rushed upstairs. He just went inside the room and seeing niki standing he just went and hugged her tight slightly lifting her off the ground. Separating from her he went on to hug abhi but seeing a disappointed look on his face and his hand outstretched for a handshake he just said a formal hi
Abhimanyu suddenly starts laughing and hugs armaan to finally give the latter a sigh of relief
Armaan:jiju you scared me
Abhi:did i?
Armaan:di where are my angels
Nikita always smiled seeing armaan refer to her kids as angels
Nikita:armaan they had a long journey.. they are in for some rest
Armaan: acha di tumne to kaha tha that you will be able to make it only by the sangeet
Nikita:yes I did
Abhi:you disappointed with our sudden arrival????
Armaan:ofcourse not jiju, lekin main aapse bahut gussa hun
Abhi:kyun
Armaan:kyunki aap meri di ka theek se khayaal hi nahi rakhte
Though abhimanyu knew he was joking still he was pissed off and niki laughed
Abhi:kyun ab maine kya kiya
Armaan:dekhiye na kitni patli ho gayi hai, koi ise dekh kar kahega ki do bachon ki ma hai... kahin koi meri khubsurat si behen ko uda kar na le jaaye aur aap khade dekhte hi rahein(well this was how armaan teased abhimanyu and even abhi enjoyed the jeeja-saala fights and this is why armaan enjoyed with anjali because those jeeja saali fights never made her upset)
Armaan::acha di aap ridhima se mili, mil hi li hongi varna sugar and salt game kaise khelti
Nikita:abhi tak tumhaari aadat gayi nahi apne questions ka answer khud dene ki? I pity ridhima and for your information main abhi tak use nahi mili.. maine rahul ko call kiya tha address puchne ke liye and then jab maine hasne ki aawaaz suni I knew that they were all at some mischief. On enquiry I realized that you are in for some trouble and then I talked to ridhima over the phone to assure that she fools you just the way you embarassed her in the morning
Armaan:wow ye acha hai, behen meri aur side ridhima ki
Nikita:tune hi to kaha tha ki tu aur ridhima alag nahi hai
The others realized that the brother sister duo needed some time to catch up so they went downstairs leaving the two alone
Nikita:so armaan, hum sab log yahaan kyun I mean ridhima ke gharwaalon par kitna load badh gaya hoga…. Today was no function just a get together and vo hum apne ghar par bhi kar sakte hain
Armaan:actually di abhi mom and dad don't know about my family background.. dr shashank was impressed with dad from their very first meeting so he did not find the need to enquire
Nikita:armaan don't tell me ki abhi tak yahaan par kisi ne tumhaara ghar nahi dekha hai
Armaan just shrugged his shoulders
Nikita: armaan comeon, do you realize how difficult it would be for ridhima.. that girl has not once seen the place she has to spend her entire life in, how would she just adjust… do you expect her to become familiar with your whereabouts just overnight, how can you? And your friends have never held any get togethers or what?
Armaan:ofcourse we have
Nikita:then
Armaan:actually I moved to a penthouse at bandra because it was nearer to my workplace and moreover managing such a huge place was not within my reach
Nikita:armaan I like this attitude in you that you just are not obssessed to your wealth but do you realize that it is yours and that is where you belong to… you need to make ridhima familiar… she should just come over and get her bedroom settled according to her and while the servants would do the needed I can just chat over to her and know her more
Armaan:I think you are right anyways lets just go down, you need to meet ridhima na
Nikita:ok fine
They both leave to go downstairs and there they see ridhima along with the others in the living room. Armaans parents have left.
Nikita:armaan mom dad… werent they here
Armaan:they would have left, do they know that you are here??
Nikita:nup
Armaan:where is jiju??
Nikita:no idea…might be with riya and ramik
Armaan:I will just call him over
As he went upstairs a beautiful sight caught his eyes.. he saw abhimanyu sitting at the edge of the bed with riya on his lap and ramik sleeping as abhimanyu lightly patted his back. Armaan could just imagine himself like that in future.. he smiled and entered
Armaan:jiju.. … why don't you come over downstairs
Abhi:ok
They both went down to see nikita standing where she was talking over to someone on the phone. Abhimanyu looked at the clock and smiled to himself.
Armaan:kya hua jiju
abhi:mere papa daant kha rahe hai for refusing to taking his medicine… this is usual for niki and him
armaan too smiled thinking that how had nikita evolved from being a careless, pampered daughter and sister to a careful and loving daughter in law and wife
armaan made his way to ridhima and introduced her to nikita and abhimanyu
armaan:ridhima this is niki di and abhi jiju and di this is
nikita:your life! (she exclaimed as she saw ridhima turn red)
ridhima:hi
nikita:ridhima I should have guessed it, nobody can actually resist your charm, you are truly pretty
abhi:I agree
ridhima:nahi di, aisa kuch nahi hai.... why dont you people take a seat.. main aapke liye kuch refreshments laati hun
nikita:nothing now… anjali ne humein upar bahut khila diya tha anyways armaan we need to rush home or dad would be upset
armaan: ok you people chat up I will just get my angels
ridhima's eyes popped out as she heard it but she calmed herself and waited to see HIS angels
armaan:basket I am warning you.. don't try and be formal… my di is the world's best di
ridhima:armaan
armaan:haan ridhima
ridhima glared at him as he raised his eyebrows in question
armaan:sorry …ridhima
he turned to move upstairs as he saw the two kids awake and they were coming down the stairs… there was a confused look on their face as they were at this place for the first time but as soon as they saw him they just rushed downstairs
riya, ramik: maamu
as they ran armaan just kneeled down and took both of them in his arms
armaan:yes my angels…. Aap kaise ho
riya: we are good but we missed you a lot (she said as she kissed his cheek)
ramik:yeah and no one gave us chocolates(planting another kiss on his cheek)
armaan kissed them both
armaan:I missed you too and here are your chocolates
he said taking them out from his shirt's pocket
both the kids were happy seeing their chocolates
he stood up with the kids still in his arms and he turned towards ridhima and saw her lost in her own world looking at them and smiling
armaan:ridhima… ridhima
ridhima:haan...armaan
armaan:here meet my angels…riya and ramik
ridhima:hi (she said in a very friendly manner but the kids refrained from replying as they didn't know her.. ridhima was upset)
armaan: and angels this is my princess and your maami
as they heard this they remembered how their mother had told them about their maami and getting all excited they just wanted to go into her arms and talk to her
as armaan handled the kids to ridhima he saw a disappointed and angry niki standing there with her hands on her hips
armaan:kya hua di??
Nikita:apne angels ke chakkar mein mujhe bhul gaye
Armaan:kya???
Nikita:kya nahi, meri chocolate kahan hai???
Armaan:di aap choti si bachi ho
Nikita :kyun chocolate sirf bache kha sakte hai
He remembered how even ridhima loves chocolates and smiles
Armaan:nahi but still
Nikita:mujhe tumse baat nahi karni
Armaan:di baat to suno
Nikita:main abhi ke saath jaa rahi hun.... tum aate rehna apne angels ke saath
She turned to leave
Armaan:theek hai phir main ye chocolates apne angels ko hi de dunga
Nikita turned around all excited.. she saw lots of chocolates in armaan's hand and she came back and tugged at those and gave him a huge hug
Abhi:niki ye kya baat hui, main bhi to tumhe pichle paanch saal se har roz chocolate de raha hun… aur hug sirf usko
Niki:vo mera bhai hai
Abhi:and mai tumhaara husband hun
Armaan smiled at their silly banter
Nikita:vaise armaan tumhe to pata nahi tha ki humlog aaj aa rahe hain so ye chocolates kaise???
Armaan:last time bhi tumne yahi kiya tha so main pichle ek hafte se chocolates le kar ghum raha hun ki pata nahi tumlog kab tapak jaao
Nikita:armaan you know you cant lie to me
Armaan:kya yaar main apni life ki do sabse zyaada important ladkiyon se jhooth kyun nahi bol paata
Ridhima looked up at him giggling
Armaan:vo na ye chocolates basket ki thi but….
He looked at ridhima expecting to find her angry but she was smiling as ever. He knew how much she loves chocolates but still he should have guessed it ki she wont be angry over such a small topic.
Nikita looked over at ridhima
Nikita:I am sorry ridhima, mujhe nahi pata tha… but that does not mean you are getting them back… apne mr majnu se bolo that apni hone waali wife ko ye chocolates nahi dete, vo to heart shaped dark chocolates hoti hain
Ridhima smiled
As niki looked over at ria and ramik she said:comeon guys… ab humlog nana nanu ke paas chalenge
Ria: mujhe nahi jaana, mujhe yahaan maami ke saath rehna hai
She looked over at ramik and said
Nikita:theek hai so main aur ramik jaayenge aur hum icecream bhi khayenge
Ramik:mujhe bhi nahi chalna.. main bhi maami ke saath rahunga
Nikita:ria, ramik stop troubling your maami tumhaare maama unhe kam pareshaan nahi karte that even you people join in
Armaan:di..
Nikita:byee, comeon ria, ramik
Armaan also turns to leave but as soon as niki and abhi leave he turns back and handles a small heart shaped box to ridhima
Armaan: tumhe kya laga ki main tumhaari chocolates bhul jaunga
Ridhima:armaan itna mat bigaado mere ko, zindagi bhar jhel nahi paaoge
Armaan:ridhima main bigaad nahi raha hun, it is just that I feel ki tumhaari har pasand meri manzil hai…
Ridhima:kaun si movie ka dialogue hai armaan, itni choti si chocolates ke peeche tumne waste kar diya,,, ab tumhe aur dhundne padenge so tum jao movies dekhne aur main jaati hun apni chocolates khaane
Armaan:ok bye basket
Ridhima:bye
Armaan turns to go but then turns back and plants a kiss on her cheek and shouts: byeee
