Recap:- Ridhhima finds out about the 'real' coffee maker... Both go for a trip to Manali, Armaan spends some quality time with her... Get stuck due to landslide and finally Ridhhima notice that something's wrong between Armaan and Muskaan...

__________________________________________________________

Mumbling to herself angrily , embarrassed.. mortified she walked into the wardrobe

" samajhta kya hai apne aap ko ? zara bhi sharam nahi hai.. Aise karte hain kya kisi ladki ke sath !? Idiot , bevkoof ! " she kept mumbling ,stuffing her 'thing' away with other 'things'... As she turned to go she saw his coat lying on the floor under his massive coat line

" mujhe to itna kaha aur apne kapde dekhe hain ? Theek se rakhe bhi nahi jaate " she walked up there but another worry now engulfed her how is she going to face him now... She noticed that she now-a-days has become an expert on how to create most embarrassing moments, sighing she decided that there was no way out he won't leave such an opportunity to laugh at her...

As she drew out the hanger her eyes fell on something... It was the same locker she found that day.. But today it was 'with' key...

' He must have forgotten to take the keys ' she thought... Curiously she opened the locker... A light automatically turned-on inside making it easier to look...

The locker wasn't crowded there were some files , few wads of cash of different currencies.. A black Velvet box ,which she was sure was a jewellery box

' Armaan ke paas jewellery box ?! Jaroor koi keemti cheez hogi..'

She didn't take it out, she found a CD with proposal written on it , thinking it must be about business she kept that back, then she saw that at the far back a photo frame was kept- face down, little away from other things... But before she could see it another thing caught her eyes... It was a diary, infact two, She picked up one ,she knew it was his diary as she had seen it in his hands many times...hesitating for a moment she picked it... Her all-so-proper brain warning her that it's not good to read others diary without their permission... But curiosity got better of her...

Opening the first page she started reading...

' To all the shitheads who are currently reading this now it means that you have been successful in obtaining the key to my locker. But before you f**k my privacy take a moment and think, what will you get from it ? What are you trying to do ? Is it something worth risking my friendship and trust for ? ' Ridhhima suddenly felt very conscious and bad she was about to shut it and keep it back when she saw the next line

' Now that you have it in your hands I don't think you will think on these points, but if you do then it will be a very nice thing to do and after reading if you put my diary back to where it was, I would be very thankful to you...' She giggled and the decision of keeping it back was just forgotton

' I started writing for myself because there are things that I can't talk to anyone about.. And even if I do ,I know I would not be true to myself in doing so...' She read on ' the reason I don't want anyone to read it is simple ' because I don't want anyone to read it ' . This is exclusively for me I don't want anyone to read my private thoughts and poke fun at them...' She read on debating whether to read on or not...

' However, if you are still going to read it, then take into account the following points and proceed on your own risk...'

" Well I think I'll take the risk..." She giggled and continued

1. Don't get caught while reading it, that may be the last moment of your life.

2. If you try to disclose the details to anyone else, you'll be listening to your voice the last time because then your tongue will be ripped and rolled around your throat

3. If you try to poke fun at me with indirect jibes, you'll be hit at a special place that would hamper your right to be a parent in this lifetime..'

she rolled her eyes " Armaan tumse aisi hi umeed ki ja sakti hai..." She continued

4. If you don't get caught and are smart enough to save your ass. Take note that you will die in the pool of your vomit and your stinky soul will burn in hell till eternity

Her mouth opened with shock, disgust, surprise amusement all mixed..." eww disgusting ! "

That's all I have to say and DON'T TAKE IT AS A JOKE because everything written here is true...

She covered her mouth to stop from laughing out aloud... The beginning was really something so Armaan like... Shaking from laughter she turned the page

' if you are still alive then you must be really lucky... and if you are wondering about the warning then let me tell you that it is necessary this 'David the peeking diary Tom' never leaves the opportunity to read my diary.. Maine isko hindi sikha kar bahut badi musibat mol le li ' she chuckled... This David must be his friend , the date confirmed her thoughts, it was dated way back when he wasn't in India...

She went ahead few pages and started reading again...

" Teen din ho gaye aaj hospital main ab jaa kar kuch likhne ki haalat ban paayi hai... Lekin isse achha to shayad kuch ho hi nahi sakta tha main to bekar hi darr raha tha... Ab main sach main believe karne laga hun... It's all for the best.. Hehe... It's heaven... Har jagah itni khoobsurti bikhri hui hai ki basss... sab ek se badkar ek..."

She raised her eyebrows reading it, she remembered how he used to flirt with every beautiful girl in the hospital... She continued

" magar un sabse alag ek... Ridhhima.... Koi itna simple ho kar bhi sabse jyada sundar kaise ho sakta hai..." this really took her by surprise " Magar hai puri Hitler... Jab dekho daanti rehti hai... Itne saalo main kisi ki himmat nahi hui mujhse unchi aawaaz main baat karne ki aur yeh madam itne saalo ki saari kasar puri kar rahi hain...'

" you deserved it " she said to herself and continued reading

" Roz daanti hai... Roz kadwi kadwi dawai de deti hai khane ke liye aur main jab tak kha naa lun sar par hi khadi rehti hai ki main kahin unhe feik na dun... (Which was my initial plan does she has a sixth sense or what...) Kaam nahi karne deti... kuch dhang ka khana khane ke liye to main taras gaya hun...Pata nahi kaun se janam ka badla le rahi hai mujhse.... Aur jab gusse main ungli utha kar warning deti hai to puri gabbar lagti hai..." Ridhhima looked up with slight anger...

" Main hitler hun... Gabbar lagti hun... Mr. Malik you are so dead today... Huh..." She then opened up the diary again and saw that leaving few lines there was something written ,as if an afterthought...

' The cutest gabbar there can ever be...' And this brought a smile on her face all anger forgotton ...

" ohh Armaan , ab tumse koi gussa bhi nahi ho sakta..."

" really ! you are not angry with me ? "

She startled at the sudden voice and the diary fell down from her hands.. Armaan saw what fell down and his smile vanished, he came there quickly and picked up the diary before she could

" Ridhhima ! This is my diary ! tum meri diary padh rahi thi ?! " she fumbled for words " kya tumhe kisi ne sikhaya nahi ki kisi aur ki cheezein unki permission ke bina nahi leni chahiye !? " he was really angry. Ridhhima felt really bad ,she knew she did wrong but why he has to yell like that " kya padha tumne ? " he roared " main kuch puch raha hun Ridhhima "

She trembled a little " k..kuch nahi bas jab tum hospital main the tab.. Mujhe gabbar keh rahe the "

" aur ?! " he inquired angrily

" aur bas tumhari warning.. Bas aur kuch nahi.. Phir tum aa gaye " tears started welling up in her eyes " I.. I'm sorry Armaan, mujhe tumse puche bina locker nahi kholna chahiye tha " He looked at her again and ran his fingers in his hair , trying to calm himself " main jaanti hun mujhe koi haq nahi banta aise bina puchhe..."

He looked at her again and knew that his harshness has hurt her, he held her by her shoulders and looked directly into her eyes

" No Ridhhima ! Listen to me, haq banta hai, yeh tumhara bhi ghar hai, yahan ki har cheez par tumhara adhikar hai samjhi. kabhi bhi aisa mat sochna ki tumhara haq nahi hai agar tumhara haq nahi hai to kisi ka bhi nahi hai " he stressed his words trying to convey that he meant it ,he loosened his grip realising what he was doing ,sighing looking in those scared confused eyes he spoke again, more softly

" look.. I'm sorry... magar kuch baatein hain Ridhhima jo main kisi se share nahi karta aur shayad kar bhi nahi paunga... Tumse bhi nahi... Please, I hope you can understand... I'm sorry... but that's personal... Very personal "

She could see that he was really feeling bad for shouting at her " of course Armaan, I can understand but I'm still sorry "

" me too " and he gave a small smile, with that the tensed atmosphere cooled a bit " thanks for understanding " he breathed in, keeping the diary back he locked the locker and went away with the key apologizing again for his crazy behaviour... Leaving her surprised and confused

She too let it go ,this was one of the 'mysterious Armaan days' though she wondered what was written in those diaries that scared him so much' that was soo personal... The day passed and the topic was never brought up again ,the good thing that happened because of this was ' the lacy thing ' was not brought up either... But that didn't spare her from his PJ's !!

It was a lovely evening Rahul and Armaan were strolling in the garden with Angel in her pram... She enjoyed the new surroundings while both men discussed business, it was then Rahul's cell started ringing... The shrill voice must have scared the little angel coz she started rolling in her pram

" Armaan Angel ko dekh zara, it's an important call " Rahul went little away to talk, while Armaan sat before Angel trying to pacify her

" hey Angel, what happened beta ?? Meri princess darr gayi.." but the child was in no mood for the babyish talk, she started crying.. " heyy kya hua baby.. Why are you crying ?? " Armaan now panicked what to do " bhai , bhai !! " he called Rahul " she's crying , yahan aao "

Rahul on the other hand was on an important call ,he covered the phone with his hand " Armaan this is important.. Pick her up ,she just need some patting "

Now he was scared even more, he looked at his hands and rubbed them quickly on his trousers " god ! Ab kya karun... Aise.. Nahi aise " he debated with himself on how to hold the baby " god maine to kabhi baby uthaya bhi nahi aur...." then he looked at the baby " shh shh chup baby look here " he tried to divert her to some squeky toys but to no avail the wailing grew louder " ohh baby why you have to be so delicate " he looked at Rahul again for help but he just signalled him to pick her up... Scowling... He nodded scared and with beating heart picked her up but then was again lost..

" ab kya karun ?! " the baby was held in mid air in his hands at an arms distance !! The baby added to his trouble by wailing in the loudest pitch ever !

Seeing this Rahul could wait no longer he quickly end his call and rushed there..

He took Angel from him " it's okay baby papa is here... Don't cry baby.. Mera bachha.." he pacified the baby who went bit quiet after being in familiar arms, he then turned to Armaan who seemed too relieved " Armaan aise uthate hai kya bachhe ko...?? " He patted the baby gently, but was visibly angry

" Bhai I was trying but she won't stop aur.. and she's a girl not a boy ki.."

" she's a baby Armaan.. And so what if it's a girl !, mujhe nahi pata tha ki you were so stuck up ! I love my baby aur agar tumhe ladkiyon se itni hi problem hai to fine, just stay away from her, Muskaan theek hee keh rahi thi you have changed.. have your own kid probably then you will understand.."

" Bhai.. bhai aap galat samajh rahe ho bhai main.." but Rahul was gone ,he never felt so helpless... What should he do to make them understand...

He came back to the room ,Ridhhima was sitting there on the couch feet resting on the table busy reading a case file.. She looked at his sad and troubled face..

" Ridhhima.."

" Haan... Kya hua ? "

" Ridhhima... Ridhhima I love Angel you know naa.." She looked at him confused " phir wo bhai..."

" Rahul bhaiyya ?! Kya Rahul bhaiyya Armaan..? " He opened his mouth to say something then looked at the door, no words came out of his mouth Ridhhima kept watching him expecting him to say something thousand emotions crossed his face but no words came out of his mouth ,he just looked at her and sighed heavily..

" Kuch nahi.." Ridhhima was surprised at his behaviour she knew something was wrong... But what ??... He turned to go to the other room

" Armaan wait " she came upto him " Armaan sach sach batao kya hua ? " she waited for him to speak

" Ridhhima actually wo...." he met her expectant gaze.. He sighed she could see that he was debating whether to tell her or not... What was it that was troubling him so much and that has created a kind of rift between one of the most loving relationship she had seen... " Wo aaj.."

" Maam.. Muskaan madam is calling you for tea.." Martin announced

" Okay Martin I'm coming " for once she was truly irritated with Martin for interrupting, he was about to say something " haan to tum kya keh rahe the ? " Trying to resume where they left..

" Kuch nahi... Koi baat nahi hai Ridhhima tum bas aise hi pareshan hoti rehti ho..." Suddenly he was his usual self but she could swear that just a moment ago, before they were interrupted by Martin, he was seriously trying to say something

She knew it was useless now the moment was gone... He won't budge now.. He gave a small smile which she knew was fake and went to the room

She just stood there trying to understand what happened just now " Magar main jaan kar rahungi Mr.Malik ki aakhir baat kya hai..." with this resolve to herself she went down to meet Muskaan... She couldn't bring up the topic then as Virendra and BP were there too.. She decided that she will ask her later privately

That night she again woke up with his groaning sound, this time it didn't scared her ,she knew he was having nightmare again... She went to the room and woke him up gently... He was startled to see himself in the room again...

" No Armaan ! " She took away the bottle from his hand

" Lekin Ridhhima main sounga kaise ? Aise mujhe neend nahi aayegi.. I need them please " He pleaded

" Nahi Armaan no pills.. Yeh solution nahi hai, aur sirf isliye ki you had a nightmare you can't have these all the time "

" I told you before ,don't take them all the time except when required.. Like now " He tried to reason

" Nahi Armaan.. " she was still not willing " here.. take your pillow and lie down " she gave him his favourite long pillow which was lying down on the floor.. probably it fell off .He wasn't much convinced but couldn't argue either, taking the pillow he snuggled upto it " better ? " she asked

" No " he said flatly, not happy for not giving him the pills

She sighed and sat by his bedside on the floor " Armaan trust me ,i'm a doctor and your friend ,you don't need these.. Just apni aankehin band karo aur sone ki koshish karo ,trust me neend aa jayegi... Apni dost ki itni baat to maan sakte ho naa " She said softly trying to calm him

He couldn't say no to that " Aur agar nahi aayi to ?? What if I see nightmare again ?? Main aise akele nahi so sakta..."

" Kuch nahi hoga Armaan just close your eyes, achha theek hai ,jab tak tumhe neend nahi aa jaati main yahin hun.. Ab to koi problem nahi hogi naa..." He opened his mouth to say something but then closed it and shook his head " good ab aankehin band karo "

He was reluctant to close them coz he wanted to see her more and was unsure about the nightmares too but the assurance that she was there with him was enough to bring all peace he wanted... Finally the tiredness ,both mental and physical, took over and he slept again clutching his pillow...

She checked if he was sleeping well and found that he was soundly asleep, she looked at the bottle in her hand it was a new one, that meant that he had already consumed the first... With the frequency of his nightmates it was no surprise.. But she decided that she must not let him make it a habit.. He could get addicted to it, if he's not already

' Fine Armaan from now on i'll regulate your pill dose.. And these nightmares... They have to be taken care of as well..' she looked at him now sleeping peacefully, covering him with blanket properly she came back to bed...

' So many things to take care of... But first let Sapna's wedding get over then...' switching off the lights she too went to sleep mind still working on him... now that she thought about it she found a pattern ,whenever he was sad ,angry or worried about something he was bound to have a nightmare that day...

' so that means if I just check on his mood his nightmares can be controlled.. Great ! You are brilliant Ridhhima ' she smiled and closed her eyes relieved at finding the answer...

The next day was Sapna's wedding and as usual he was bowled over by her beauty...

she wore this

" ehem.. Ridhhima "

" haan " she looked at him in the mirror busy brushing her hair

he wore this

" tum kyun bechari Sapna ki shaadi barbaad karna chahti ho "

" what ?! " she turned to face him " main sapna ki shaadi !? "

" well of course.. Agar tum itna saara makeup laga kar sundar ban kar jaogi to us bechari ko koi dekhega hi nahi.. Aur Amit agar usne Sapna se shaadi ke liye mana kar diya to... No ! no !... Aow " a hair brush hit him straight on his stomach

" got your answer.. Tumhe to theek se compliment dena bhi nahi aata, pata nahi tumhari girlfriends kaise jhelti thi tumhe " she got up picking her purse mumbling, when suddenly he held her arm and pulled her... She crashed on his chest... He held her by her waist... She was totally surprised... He looked directly into her eyes and spoke in his husky sensuous voice

" aapko suraj kahun magar usme aag hai, aapko chaand kahun magar usme daag hai," he bent forward " aapko geet kahun par uska to raag hai.. " his cheek brushed her's and lips milimeters away from her ear, her heartneat rose as his masculine scent reached her and unknowingly her hold tightened on his shoulder ,he moved back looking into her eyes again there was a momentary pause their eyes locked... then... he smiled, his naughty smile " aapko bandariya kahun par kambakht usme bhi dimaag hai " and he burst into laughter... It took a moment for Ridhhima first to control her erratic heartbeat and then not to kill him

" Armaaannn , main tumhe chhodungi nahi..." she ran behind him her purse raised ,ready to hit him and with other she held her saree... They ran into the corridor

" arree arre Ridhhi araam se kya kar rahi hai " Muskaan stopped her

" bhabhi dekh lo Armaan ko mujhe bandariya keh raha hai.. Kya main bandariya lag rahi hun ? "

Muskaan looked at Armaan " tu bhi naa Ridhhi kiski baaton main aa rahi hai.. Iski to aadat ho gayi hai dusro ka dil dukhane ki " she still looked at him, Ridhhima looked at Muskaan then at Armaan his smile gone now ,something was wrong,

" Ridhhima main neeche car main wait kar raha hun.. Jaldi aana.." with a glance at Muskaan he went away

" bhabhi.. "

" kuch nahi, wo bas bolta rehta hai.. You are looking verryy beautiful today " and she put a small kajal mark " kahinn nazar na lag jaaye "

" ohhh bhabhi, love you " she hugged her lovingly " achha main chalti hun warna phir koi nayee baat le kar mera mazaak udayega "

In the car he was quiet ,not even doing his favourite work of teasing her " Armaan are you okay ? "

" h..haan kyun ? Mujhe kya hua ? "

" nahi abhi to ghar par itna bol rahe the aur ab itne chup ho "

" nahi bas kuch soch raha tha "

" kya ? "

" aise hi kuch office ka matter tha "

" magar.."

" lo I think we're there " he pointed ahead to the big wedding place, she knew he wasn't telling the truth ,he wasn't thinking about some office work it was definitely about Muskaan... But what...

She got out of the car ,he came to her side and gave her his arm to hold... She took it smilingly not wishing to dampen his mood further, she knew patience was the key...

" Ridhhima " she looked at him " I wasn't lying when I said you will look better then Sapna... Tum sach main bahut sundar lag rahi ho "

Suddenly she felt conscious of his gaze, his husky voice raised her heartbeat ,an involuntary blush rose to her cheeks

" th..thanks " she looked away and he smiled this was all she could manage, soon she was surrounded by her other friends and even Sapna waved at her from the stage.. She was really loved by all...

It was time to meet bride and groom, they sat together at the big dining table . Sapna met Ridhhima warmly and Armaan formally.. He could see that she hadn't forgotton what he'd said to her before their marriage...

" Sapna.. Tum abhi tak naraaz ho mujhse.. Look i'm sorry what I said to you earlier, kya tum mujhe maaf nahi kar sakti.. Kya main Ridhhima jaise tumhara dost nahi ban sakta "

" look Mr. Armaan Malik mujhe aapse dosti karne ka koi shauq nahi hai.. The only reason i'm tolerating you is Ridhhima... For some wierd reason she looks happy.. And as long as she is happy i'm fine... Don't think ki uska saath dene ke liye koi nahi hai samjhe " Amit held her hand to calm her down and looked apologetically at him

To her surprise instead of gettimg angry or annoyed he smiled " it's okay Amit ,and Sapna i'm really happy to see that Ridhhima has such good friend as you, aur rahi saath ki baat to main bhi Ridhhima ka saath hi dena chahta hun... Zindagi bhar ke liye... Tumhari tarah mere liye bhi uski khushi hi sabse zyada mayne rakhti hai, tumhari soch se kahin zyada..."

She was now at loss of words " well.. Fine... I'll see , magar agar tumne kabhi bhi use pareshan kiya to..."

" to tum apna belan le kar kabhi bhi mujhe marne aa sakti ho "

Amit burst into laughter hearing this " don't underestimate her man, she can hit really hard " and even Sapna could not stop her smile and glare at him..

" Armaan tumne khana khaya ? " Ridhhima came there with a baby in her hand

" nahi.. Arre yeh kiska bachha utha laayi ? ab tum shaadi main bachhe bhi churane lagi Ridhhima " she glared at him and Amit almost choked on the glass of water

" Armaan !! Yeh Sapna ki bhabhi ka beta hai, wo zara change karne gayi hain isliye ise mujhe pakda gayi... Ek kaam karo tum do minute ise lo main tumhare liye khana le kar aati hun "

" what ?! Main ?? Baby ko ?? No no ! Ise tum hi pakdo khana main khud le lunga "

" Armaan don't worry he won't spoil your clothes usne diaper pehna hai " Sapna chuckled seeing him scared of holding a baby

" no Ridhhima wo baat nahi hai mujhe.. Mujhe baby lena nahi aata "

" god Armaan ,you are just impossible ! Kya tumne kabhi Angira ko nahi liya " he was stumped ,but looked at her with puppy eyes pleading " theek hai, mat lo, main abhi aati hun " she went away again and came back with a plate of food minus baby

Sapna just looked at her as she sat beside her giving him the plate... And instructions...

" Ridhhima ? "

" haan kya hua ?? Kuch chahiye ? "

" nahi, magar.. Tu theek to hai naa ? Tu aur Armaan.. What about Vivek ?? "

" don't worry Sapna , main kuch nahi bhuli bas ab fark yeh hai ki ab main aur Armaan dost ban gaye hain "

" dost ?! Haan wo to dikh raha hai, jaise tu apni dosti nibha rahi hai "

" Sapnaa tu bhi naa... Bahut kuch badal gaya hai Sapna sab bataungi... Armaan itna bhi bura nahi hai " she looked at him busy talking to Amit, doubtful " trust me main khush hun... And thanks to you too mera saath dene ke liye "

She hugged her lovingly " hey that's what friends are for... As long as you are happy " she again looked at her and then at Armaan, Ridhhima could see doubts and questions in her eyes she kept her hand in hers

" trust me, I am.." she turned and her eyes widened seeing Armaan " Armaan ! Leave that ice cream right now ! Abhi zukaam theek hua hai naa , phir tabiyat kharaab karni hai kya ?!!" he pouted but kept the cup back... Amit laughed

" zyada hasne ki zarurat nahi hai, teri bhi yahi haalat hone waali hai " Sapna blushed smilingly at his comment , and again looked at both Ridhhima and Armaan... Rest of the night just flew away and they started for home tired but happy...

She chatted happily about everything wedding, Sapna, Amit , friends ,the cute baby she met " Ridhhima... Anjy ka baby kab aayega ? "

" well in about 7 months , i'm dying to hold the baby in my arms " she said longingly

" Ridhhima how can you hold babies so easily... They are so.. so.. Delicate and breakable and catch everything so easily "

" yeh tumse kisne kaha ? "

" wo.. office main maine suna tha kisi ko baat karte hue ki usne apne baby ko thoda sa zor se pakad liya aur baby ka hath fracture ho gaya " he shivered a little at the thought

" to phir usne baby lo theek se nahi liya hoga ,mana ki babies delicate hote hain magar agar theek se liya jaaye to it's no harm... Babies love attention.. Jaise tumhe pasand hai " she chuckled

He smiled " magar... Phir babies kab tak itne.. Strong ho jaate hain ki unhe.. You know, lage nahi "

She, mildly surprised and amused at his question answered " well.. babies to delicate hote hi hain, magar I think about 1 saal ka bachha physically aur internally itna strong ho jaata hai ki wo chhote mote jhatke jhel sake... Kyun ? tum kyun puch rahe ho ? "

" n..nahi bas aise hi " and he looked ahead ' god 9 months more ! ' he thought and diverted the conversation... Soon it was forgotton...

Muskaan was in the kitchen when Armaan entered

" Martin i'm hungry " he rummaged the fridge

" Martin tell him that dinner will be ready in 10 minutes so he should stop raiding the fridge " she didn't look at him ,Martin surprised looked at her then at him, Armaan said nothing he got the message and without another word he went out, Martin went back to his work, unexpected behaviour was Malik trademark... But this was witnessed by Ridhhima who was surprised that now thay have stopped talking to each other directly too... She came up to Muskaan, who was unaware of her presence...

" bhabhi "

" haan Ridhhi "

" Bhabhi aakhir baat kya hai ? Kya aapko kuch problem hai Armaan se ?? batayiye naa akhir baat kya hui hai aap dono ab pehle jaise nahi hain " Muskaan stopped stirring and ordered Martin to look after the dish now she faced her

" Problem mujhe nahi Ridhhi Armaan ko hai " she went to kitchen counter at other end

" Armaan ko ?! " she followed her

" Haan aur mujhse nahi, Angira se " both sat down on the chairs

" Angira se ? Armaan ko ?! Aap kya baat kar rahe ho bhabhi mujhe samajh nahi aa raha Armaan loves Angel "

" Ha loves Angel ! He doesn't even llike her I suppose... Aur kaun si maa yeh dekh kar khush hogi ki koi uske bachhe ko dekh kar khush nahi hai "

" Aap kya keh raho bhabhi " she was shocked hearing it

" Main theek keh rahi hun Ridhhi, Armaan dislike Angel "

" Nahi bhabhi bilkul nahi ! " the one thing she was absolutely sure was this " aapko koi galatfehmi hui hai "

" Achha ! galatfehmi ? mujhe ?!theek hai, to bata last time tune kab uski goud main Angel ko dekha ?... " Ridhhima went quiet " Nahi yaad ? wo isliye Ridhhi kyun ki usne aaj tak Angel ko kabhi goud main uthaya hi nahi... Wo usse aise duur bhagta hai jaise wo koi virus ho.." Ridhhima was lost in her thoughts, Muskaan was indeed right she had really never seen him holding Angel...

" Mujhe to yakeen hi nahi hota ki yeh wohi Armaan hai jise baby ke aane ki itni excitement thi, jisne uske aane par itna kuch kiya tha..." She trailed off sadly " Armaan badal gaya hai Ridhhi he's not same... Aur mujhe is baat ko le kar aur bhi jyada gussa hai ki wo kuch bolta bhi to nahi ki aakhir use Angira se pareshani kya hai ?? Itna ulta seedha bol deti hun magar ek baar bhi nahi bolta ki Muski aisa kyun bol rahi hai mujhe ?? bas chup chap sunta rahega... Aise main kya kahun main usse ?? " Muski had tears in her eyes now.. Ridhhima knew that it hurt mukaan too to say such things to him, but she knew he wasn't the one who could share his feelings with anyone so easily... Her mind was working frantically and after a few moments of silence her face relaxed with a knowing determined look... But right now it will ne useless to make her understand she has to 'show' her

The next day she went to Muskaan

" bhabhi.. Bhabhi chalo naa zara mere sath , mujhe samajh hi nahi aa raha main Sapna ki reception par kya pehnu... Plz zara chalo naa help me plzzz.."

" Ridhhiii tu bhi naa... Chal " she asked Maria who was changing Angels clothes, to bring her along, both the ladies went to the wardrobe room

Armaan came back from office and immediately went for a quick shower in the mean time Maria too came with Angel and placed her securely in the center of the bed,unaware that armaan is back both the ladies remained busy in their selection... Armaan came out of the shower and saw Maria

" oh thank god baba you are here, keep an eye on Angel i've to rush to kitchen.. Okay Muskaan madam will be here shortly " leaving him there with Angel she went out quickly

Armaan looked at Angel who was busy chewing her toes and then his worried face broke into a happy smile... he settled down beside her... Angel too looked at him and gave a big smile which multiplied his joy thousand times... he gave his finger to her which she held immediately squeaking with delight... Ridhhima and Muski came out hearing her squeals, Muskaan was about to say something when Ridhhima stopped her.. Armaan does'nt come to know that they were watching...

" Heyyy baby how are you sweetheart ?? U know me na main aapka chachu... Aap yahan akele kya kar rahe ho baby.." Tickling her tummy lightly the baby smiled feeling ticklish

" Waise aapko pata hai main kabse aapka wait kar raha tha lekin koi aapko akele chhodta hi nahi ,itne din ho gaye aapko aaye hue aur hamari kabhi theek se baat hi nahi ho paayi..." baby gurgled as if agreeing... " You know jab aap aise smile karte ho naa to bahut sweet se Angel lagte ho... Now it's just between you and me " he came closer to her face " we are a team now ok give me hi five "

He gives his finger and baby holds it quickly... " Yeeeyy now partner if you have any problem just come to me, chachu ke paas sab baaton ka solution hai... Agar mumma ganda sa baby food khilaye, papa besuri awaz mein aapke liye gaana gaye then just give a shout chachu will be there in no time..." He snapped his fingers smiling at her Angel gave a big smile in return waving her arms and kicking her legs as if she understood everything...

" Hey Angu aap jaldi se bade ho jao fir hum dono basketball khelenge aur cricket bhi aur haan agar koi ladka aapko pareshaan kare naa just tell me I will break his legs..."a smile came to Muskis face hearing it ,Angel turned her head away and the smile disappeared from his face... " Angel beta aap bhi chachu se naraz hain... Papa mumma jaise...?? "

Muski's smile faltered, sadness swept across her face " Beta you know naa chachu loves you a lot.. But.. But chachu is a fool ! Aapke chachu ko babies ko handle karna nahi aata..." Muski was surprised to hear it... " Baby I know it's silly isliye maine kisi ko kaha nahi and mumma papa think that chachu badal gaye " he said as if saying more to himself rather than Angel he again looked at her " but you know naa baby aisa nahi hai... Aap itne delicate ho baby agar.. Agar chachu ne aapko gira diya... Aapko lag gayi to... Kahin chachu se aapko koi infection lag gaya to... Bahar kitne germs hote hai naa..." He looked horrified at the idea.. " Sorry baby but your chachu is one big scared fool he don't want his Angel to get hurt in anyway... Aur agar chachu ki wajah se aapko kuch ho gaya to chachu apne aapko kabhi maaf nahi kar paayenge beta.." He said very seriously...

Muski swallowed a lump that formed in her throat and her eyes got moist hearing it... Armaan now smiled and said " Aap jab thode bade ho jaoge naa to chachu aapko goud main utha kar khoob ghumenge... Just 9 more months " Muski had tears in her eyes now... All her anger melted away she cursed herself for misunderstanding him... And Ridhhima too was surprised yet happy to see this side of him, she knew that he was just scared that he might hurt Angel and that's why acted so silly and never held her... " Baby you know naa chachu loves his Angel very much... Chachu baby ke liye kabse wait kar rahe the... Aap to iss ghar main itni badi khushi ban kar aaye ho... And you know hum aapke liye itne saare toys laaye hain aur hum dono mil kar khelenge hai naa... Aur papa ko nahi bulayenge papa ko games nahi aate wo hamesha haar jaate hain aur mumma.. agar wo haar gayi to wo meri hi pitayi kar dengi... Waise chachi ko bula lete magar wo busy hongi naa.." Angel now smiled and gurgled, a teary laugh escaped from Muski lips Ridhhima too smiled and kept a hand over her shoulder hugging her...

" Aur dono daadu to office jayenge... To bacha kaun hum dono i tell you beta we will make the best uncle neice team hai naa, hai naa " he shook his head smiling broadly seeing that he got all the attention from baby kuhu smiled " yeah give me another hi five.." He gave her his finger and kuhu waving her little hands held it immediately " yeaaahhh " he then slightly kiss her little hand... " Chachu Love u a lot baby but you know main jyada girly tous nahi laaya mujhe pata hi nahi tha ki aapko kya pasand aayega..to aap mere saath chalna aur jo pasand aaye na aap wo le lena okay.. Aur ek mumma papa hain jo sochte hain ki i'm not happy coz it's a girl how silly ! " he hit his forehead " Me ?! hate girls ?! never ! I swear I loved all my girlfriend's very much, but plz apni chachi ko yeh mat batana.. this is our secret " Muski elbowed Ridhhima who narrowed her eyebrows " but 'you' stay away from boys ... Okay.." Muski and Ridhhima chuckled... He then kissed first on his finger then placed that finger on her forehead... Seeing this tears now flowed freely from Muski's eyes Ridhhima squeezed her shoulder telling her not to Suddenly his cell started to ring...

" opps chachu ka phone aaya hai baby.. Magar aap kahin jaana mat okay.. Ha like you can " he gigled then keeping pillows on both the sides to stop her from rolling over he got up

" main abhi aaya baby... Don't run away okay " And he went to take his cell ringing in the other room... After a while when he came out he saw Muski and Ridhhima sitting and chatting while Angel played on the bed.... He was bit disappointed as he wanted to play some more with Angel...

" Hey Muski.. hi Ridhhima..."

" Aa gaya khotte... Kuch piyega ? " He was surprised to hear the same old Muski...

" Main.. Wo..." he was really surprised

" Ab bol bhi juice mangwa du...? "

" H..haan " Ridhhima picked up the phone and asked Martin to bring a glass of juice and some fruits for him... He was glad that Muski was again talking to him nicely in the same old manner ,how or what had brought the change that was a mystery to him..he wondered..

Suddenly she looked at the watch and got up " Rahul bhi aane waala hoga, ridhhima tu thodi daer Angel ko dekh main abhi aati hun mujhe kuch kaam hai " eyeing meaningfully she went away

As soon as she was out Ridhhima too stood up

" hey tum kahan ja rahi ho ? "

" main Angel ka diaper lene ja rahi hun abhi aayi, lo tum zara pakdo ise " before he could say anything she placed Angel in his arms and went away

" magar.. Magar " he panicked, frightened

As soon as Ridhhima comes oit she gives thumbs up to Muski who was already waiting for her.. Muski hugged her...

" thanks Ridhhi.. Agar aaj tu nahi hoti to shayad main Armaan ko galat hi samjhti rehti.. Kitni galat thi main, kitni buri hun main, mere mann main aisa khayal aaya bhi kaise ??.." tears flowed down her eyes again..

" bhabhi.. It's okay ab to sab theek hai naa.. Cmmon ab royiye nahi " she hugged her..

" agar tu nahi hoti Ridhhi to main apne stupid reasons ki wajah se usko galat hi samjhti rehti, aur Rahul... mujhe use bhi batana hoga.. Meri bevkoofi dono bhaiyo main daraar paida kar deti Ridhhi " she shivered at the horrible thought

" aisa kabhi hoga hi nahi bhabhi, main jaanti hun Rahul bhaiyya aur aap Armaan ko apne bachhe jaise hi pyaar karte ho " she wiped her tears " ab bas haimein Armaan ka yeh darr kam karna hoga... Usko roz thoda time Angel ke saath spend karne ko dena hoga.. Taaki uske mann se yeh darr nikal jaaye ki uski wajah se Angel ko koi nuksaan ho sakta hai " Muskaan now nodded wiping her tears and smiling a little ,giving a thumbs up

on the other hand in the room baby started moving her arms and legs... and already scared Armaan panicked

" oh my god ! oh my god ! baby Angel don't move baby ,chachu is clumsy baby... Hey bhagwaan... Muskaaaan... Ridhhhiiimmaa " he shouted but hearing the loud voice the baby stopped moving immediately, her lip curled signalling a loud wail on it's way, he saw it

" oh god .. Don't cry baby my Angel.. Plz plz okay baby chachu won't shout okay... Quiet... Shhh shhh my baby... " he brought her close to his chest and rocked her gently the baby enjoyed the gentle rocking and was quiet again, he kept looking at the baby too terrified that he might cause some harm to the her, breath held ,heart pounding...he dare not move from his place lest it would disturb the baby who now gave a big yawn and closed her eyes... A fairy ready to visit fairies in her dreamland...

Armaan saw the little fairy in his arms, who surely found his lap a very comfertable place and slept soundly, all fears left him... He was mesmerised seeing the little angel and rocked her slowly.. He smiled seeing her as the baby smiled in her sleep

" sweet dreams, my Angel " and hesitating for a moment he bent down and gently kissed her forehead

later muskaan told everything to Rahul who was surprised too, and felt utterly foolish and guilty to think so wrong about his brother.. He too felt grateful to Ridhhima for clearing the doubts and agrred that his fears should be wiped out...slowly everything starts coming back to normal everyday his fear decreased ,he was given time to spend with Angel.. First with one pretext or other but then his fear all vanished away...

Now as soon as he used to come Angel would spread her arms to him and he smiling broadly would jump up to her... So much so that sometimes there was a fight between Rahul and him that who will hold her first... and Ridhhima.. Well.. She was happy too... Immensely.. seeing him happy...smiling... Sleeping without nightmares again...
