AR ||You Are Mine|| Epilogue @ 74 [7/9] *THE END* - Page 41

After the exam was over, Armaan and Riddhima bid farewell to their friends and headed towards the parking area. Silence prevailed in between them. Unknowingly, their arms bumped softly with each other. Riddhima shyly lowered her eyes, while Armaan just gazed her, sweetly smiled and entwined his fingers with hers. They kept on walking holding the hands of each other. Even the quietness between them was speaking volumes.

"How was ur exam?", asked Armaan casually. "It was good! How about urs?", answered Riddhima in the same manner. "Good!", replied Armaan and sighed. "Why the heck am I getting so nervous? Why can't I say the thing I want to tell her straightway?", wondered Armaan confusedly.

By this time, they had reached to their car. Armaan opened the door of the passenger seat and led Riddhima in. Then he walked around the front of the car and sitting in the driver seat, he left.

On the way, Riddhima realized that Armaan had taken a different way that didn't lead to their home. "Aren't we going home?", she asked and got astonished. "Naah! We are going to the beach, so that we can have some privacy," said Armaan naughtily and turning his face to Riddhima, he winked. "There I'd tell her the thing I want. I'll tell her that we should let DJ know about our relationship", thought Armaan determinedly and smiled.

"Armaan, lets go home. Our finals are going on naa!" Riddhima ordered Armaan. Armaan lovingly touched her cheek and said, "I know Riddhima but don't worry, we will go home on time." This made Riddhima really annoyed. "Armaan, lets go home naa please! Tomorrow I have a tough exam.", she pleaded. "Riddhima, we will go home but lets go to the beach first. I need to tell you something!", replied Armaan calmly and sweetly.

"Why the hell can't you understand? I wanna go home! That's it!", Riddhima shouted as she lost her patience and Armaan was dumbfounded and he stopped the car at the side of the road. "Riddhima, why are you yelling like that? Fine, we will go home but calm down first!", he said putting his hand on her shoulder. Riddhima quietly nodded. "Something is wrong!", said Armaan to himself in his mind worriedly and taking a U-turn, he went to their home.

Once they were back home, Riddhima went to her room without saying a word to anyone. "Armaan beta, is Riddhima fine?", DJ asked Armaan tensely to which he replied, "Haan DJ! It's just the tension for the finals, that's it! I'll go and talk to her."

After talking with DJ in the hall and assuring her that everything was fine, he went to Riddhima's room and saw her sitting on the bed with a furious look on her face. "On the way, Riddhima had a call and after that, she was quiet. What can be the matter?", Armaan thought. "Riddhima, are you fine? Is there any problem?" he asked sitting beside Riddhima. "Armaan, please leave me alone. I need some time alone." Riddhima numbly replied. "Dekho Riddhima, if u tell the whole matter then maybe I can help u. Trust me once please!" Armaan said in a supportive tone. Riddhima took a deep breath to calm down her anger and then she said softly, "Well, bohot dino se I wanted a monument build in the memory of papa as he was an army officer. That's why few days before; I had finalized a property and also paid the advance. I thought that I'd tell u once I'll get the property papers but today, when we were on the way, I got a call from the land-owner Deepak Modi and he told me that he had already sold the property to someone else. How could he do so?" As she said the last two words, her facial expression reflected anger.

"How could he sell the land to someone else where u have already paid him the advance? Well, u don't worry, I'll find out about it but u just calm down. Relax!" Armaan said and put his hand around Riddhima's shoulders. Riddhima nodded and said, "Thanks!" Armaan quickly pecked her cheek and said with a cute smile, "You r most welcome!" Finally that made her smile.

It was almost going to be midnight. Riddhima was very engrossed in studying. Armaan came in her room and standing near the doorway with folded arms near his chest, he admired her. "She looks so beautiful when her hairs fall on her face.", he thought and dreamily smiled.

"Armaan, come inside!" Suddenly Riddhima said while writing something. Armaan asked in an amazed tone, "How did u know that I'm here? I didn't even make any noise." "That's because I can feel you.", replied Riddhima plainly.

"Oye hoye!", Armaan muttered in his breath and gave a million dollar smile. He came inside and stood behind Riddhima. Bending a little and bringing his face near Riddhima's, he tucked the strains of her hair behind her ears and kissed her neck. Riddhima moved in uneasiness which kind of shocked Armaan. "Now you are getting irritated with my closeness?" he asked. "Nothing like that, Armaan! You can see, I'm busy in preparation. Tub hi parhai kar na!", replied Riddhima normally. Armaan rolled his eyes and thought in mind, "This exam naa! Kabab mein haddi!" "By the way, I wanted to tell ya something!", Armaan happily said. "Kya?", said Riddhima in a tone Armaan had never expected. "Whoa! She is not curious at all.", thought Armaan and made a sad puppy face. "You have got your land back. That Deepak Modi is arrested for illegally selling your land to someone else, and well the property papers, the police has couriered that at our address. We will get that soon." he said in one go in a very normal manner and Riddhima jumped from her chair in joy and excitement. She immediately hugged Armaan and said on spree, "Thank you so much Armaan! Thanks a lot! You don't know that what you have done. I'm so grateful. Thanks!"

"Phew! Finally she smiled. Thank you God!", Armaan thought and smilingly he hugged her back. After they broke their hug, Riddhima said with a huge smile, "Today, you will get whatever you want. Akhir tune mera mood jo theek kiya hain." Armaan's expression turned mischievous and taking a step towards her, he said, "Anything?" Riddhima gulped and said nervously, "Yeah, anything!" "Kuch bhi?", Armaan asked her again and slipping his hand around her waist, he pulled her close to him. "Kuch bhi!" said Riddhima in a breathless voice and closed her eyes.

Armaan leaned closer to Riddhima and kissed her forehead, nose and at last captured her lips with his in a soft and romantic kiss. Riddhima slid her hands around his neck and kissed him back with love and affection. They weren't getting passionate yet their lips were pressed together as if they were enjoying each others' touch, the effect and the butterflies they were having in their stomach because of it!

After they pulled themselves back, Riddhima sat on her chair quietly and got involved in studying again. Armaan's jaw dropped at this. "What is this yaar? Again this studying in between our romance? Lets go to the terrace naa. I'm feeling bored!" he said childishly. "Go and study Mr. Malik! Romance ke liye puri zindagi pari hain.", Riddhima seriously said.

Getting totally annoyed, Armaan shouted, "What the heck Riddhima! Even I'm worried for exams but for that, I'm not ignoring you that why are you?" Riddhima stood up and facing Armaan, she said irritatedly, "Arey ajib hai yaar! Where am I ignoring?" Armaan pointed his index finger towards her and said glaring at her, "You are ignoring! College ke baad after we talked, the time was 4pm and now its 11.30am, and surprisingly, u hasn't talked with me in these hours, neither you came in my room. Woh toh main hoon ki I came here cuz I was bored!"

Riddhima made an expression as if she was totally clueless what her mistake actually was. "Why are you overreacting Armaan?" Riddhima was not accepting her mistake and this added fuel to Armaan's anger. He punched on the table making a loud sound and Riddhima jerked in fear. "I. AM. NOT. OVERREACTING. Yesterday we did give time to each other in spite of our exam today.", he said emphasizing on each word.

That was the limit! Riddhima finally shouted angrily, "Oh God! Armaan, you know that today, it was an easy exam but tomorrow's exam is hard, and by the way, what do you think? Is love only meant getting physical, doing romance and all? Do you want that we keep on romance all the day and night?" "Think whatever you want!", Armaan said getting highly pissed with everything and stormed out of the room. Riddhima banged her palm on the table in anger.
