Preview to chapter 24

I felt someone tugging on the bed sheet covering my face and grunted. All I wanted to do was get a soft bed unlike the jute cot I was sprawled on and sleep peacefully for an hour or so. I hoped the person trying to wake me would leave me alone if I chose not to open my eyes. But I realized that the person was as stubborn as I am. I pushed the sheet down till my chin and opened my eyes. But I had to shut them immediately due to the direct sun that blazed above. However, after blinking them for a couple of times, I opened my eyes and let out a loud yawn.

"Did you see Riddhima? Did she tell you that she was going somewhere?" The nanny asked me.

"She is sleeping inside." I mumbled and pulled the sheet above my face.

"But she is not there. She is gone." She replied, catching my attention. Her face clearly showed her worry.

Pulling the sheet down till my neck, I stared at her. "What do you mean she is gone?" I asked, trying to flex my limbs and back off the stiffness due to the hard cot. "She might be in the washroom or with the kids." I added.

"We-" She started, but her words were cut by an irritated grumbling.

While my eyes widened, the nanny stared at me perplexed. And then there was a moment. The nanny's eyes almost popped out of their sockets when Riddhima's hoarse voice reached our ears. I tried to connect the dots and as the realization dawned, I tried to clutch the sheet but I was late. Nanny pulled the sheet down and Riddhima's head peeped out of it. And that's when I felt her soft body glued to mine under the sheet, our limbs almost entangled.

"You are sleeping here!!" The poor old woman almost screeched.

I might have turned red, and I felt hot around my ears. I could imagine the compromising position of our bodies and so I hurriedly pulled the sheet to cover our bodies. I don't want to imagine the form of Riddhima's saree.

"Ofcourse, you would be here." The wrinkled cheeks of the old woman turned deep red, while she smiled at me sheepishly. "I should have thought. You are newlyweds. I should have tried to provide a big cot for you both." She rambled on.

And I was shocked out of my wits at her words. Could she be thinking that we were -? I blocked the thought and tried to speak something.

"No no, aunty. Riddhima slept with you inside the entire night. I don't know when she-" I blurted out but was cut by another voice.

"Psht Armaan. Let me sleep na!" She drawled. "You were pulling on the bed sheet the entire night. You didn't even let me sleep while-" I placed my hand on her mouth to stop her from blurting out something inappropriate.

The woman looked at me appalled and then smiled, shaking her head. "I guess you both didn't have good sleep last night. I will ask the kids not to let anyone come this way so you may sleep for some more time." She said and strolled off inside.

After coming out of the initial shock, I looked down at Riddhima. She was sleeping happily unknown to the chaos she just caused. I wondered when she had come and snuggled close to me. I chuckled, remembering the repression of the nanny. She appeared positively scandalized. Unable to refrain myself, I laughed out and pulled her closer in my arms while closing my eyes. I was sure it was going to be an eventful day after the successful start.

Btw the banner is gorgeous <3

I love how slowly and steadily both Armaan and Riddhima are getting closer. How Riddhima is turning out into such a confident girl. She doesn't fear in expressing her love, in fact values the fact that expressing it will only get her closer to Armaan. The way she talks so highly of their relation, with so much confidence, her sitting so close to him even with Rahul being around, is so adorable to read. Its touching to see how she's so secure in the relation. Armaan's a sweetheart, he tries in every way to make her forget the past and fill her present and future with happiness, he genuinely tries to do a lot to make her even more happy then she is.

Their bond and relation, both have been beautifully written by you.

And OMG Riddhima is so cute in the preview. I wonder what the preview was about 😳
