PART-15
The heavy stormy rain had stopped in the mid-afternoon. Armaan and Riddhima were sitting in the swing in the balcony, talking and romancing enjoying themselves and the pleasant weather. All of a sudden armaan picked up her in his arms and went to the terrace. She was confused why he was taking her to the terrace suddenly. She looked at him questioning with her eyes. He smiled at her and continued climbing the stairs. He put her down on her feet gently as they reached the terrace. She shivered as the cool breeze caressed her skin. He embraced her in a side hug rubbing her arms to keep her warm and pointed to the sky. Her natural pink lips curled in to a Big Wide smile as she saw the Beautiful sight infront of her. "Wow! It's Beautiful. Hai na armaan?" she said admiring the rainbow. "Yeah. Very Beautiful" he said dreamily, looking at her smiling to the fullest and her eyes sparkling. She frowned as the rainbow disappeared and turned to look at him, only to see him staring at her with love, his dimple smile making her heart skip beats. She lowered her eyelids blushing and hid her face in his chest. "I love you basket" he whispered in her ear and placed a wet kiss her on her earlobe making her shiver and hug him tight. "You are more Beautiful than any other being in this world riddhima. You are Beautiful In and Out. God has created you only for me. You are mine basket. Forever and Ever. I love you sooo much" he whispered huskily in her ear and traced her face with soft kisses parting her a little from their hug. She trembled with a smile in his arms and held him close, perfectly fitting in his arms. He looked at her closed eyes and caressed her flushed cheeks with his knuckles. She shuddered moaning his name. Their faces were just inches away from the other. He kissed her forehead. He poked his tongue out and licked her lips making her shiver more and dug her nails in his back. She gasped as he placed his lips on hers. He continued licking her lips and sucking them. She responded to him doing the same with his lips. Armaan cupped her face in his palms and kissed her. She responded to him with equal passion. Riddhima rubbed his nape arousing him. They kissed softly exploring each other patiently taking their time. They stopped in lack of breath and leaned their forehead on the other inhaling oxygen with closed eyes.

"Bhaiya knows about you" riddhima said looking at him. "What?" he asked shocked. "Haan. Four years ago he came to London without telling me to surprise me and saw me crying in my room. He asked me why I was crying and I couldn't hide from him anymore. I told him I was in a relationship when he was in Banglore and broke up the day before he came back to Mumbai. He got angry on you and was furious. He asked why we broke up but I didn't tell him the reason. I didn't know what to tell him as a reason. I didn't want him to think of you as a bad person and told him how much you loved me, took care of me and was always with me. I didn't tell him any details about you. I asked him to promise me he will not try to find out anything about you. He didn't agree first. But after Lot of effort, I made him promise me" she said looking at him. "I don't know how I will face him basket. You know me and champ share a very good relationship. I don't know what his reaction will be when he comes to know it is me who broke his sister's heart. I won't be surprised if he slaps and hits me or even throws me out of here. But happen whatever may, I will not leave you. You will be with me na basket?" "We will be together and face everything armaan" she said with a smile kissing his cheek making him smile. "And you don't need to be worried. Bhaiya will not do anything like you think" "How are you so sure basket?" "You know about him na armaan. He doesn't lose his patience easily" "You are right basket. I know he is very calm and patient. But he will be furious when he will come to know I am the one who hurt his sister. I am ready to face his wrath riddhima. After all, he is right in his place. He loves you a lot". "He loves and respects you for who you are armaan. I think he knows about you well. His anger will vanish when he comes to you are the one whom I love. He won't do anything like you think. Don't worry". Her words assured him he doesn't need to be worried, but he couldn't help the fear in his heart and she knew it. "Everything will be fine" she said and he nodded at her hugging her.
*******
Armaan looked at riddhima when she didn't answer him. He smiled wide looking at her sleeping hugging him. He lifted her in his arms and went to the room and laid her on the bed. He kissed her forehead making her smile and covered her with the duvet. He sat beside her caressing her hair and gazing at her with love. After few minutes, he slowly got out of the bed placing a feather kiss on her cheek. She frowned in her sleep missing his warmth as he moved away from her. She stirred and opened her eyes slowly and looked at armaan going out of the room. "Armaaan" she called him in her sleepy voice. He turned and looked at her. He went to her and sat beside her on the bed. She sat up and leaned on his shoulder. He encircled his one arm around her. With the other hand he ran his fingers through her silky hair lovingly. "Where are you going armaan? Stay here with me" "Mujhe kuch kaam hai basket. You sleep. I will finish it and come" "Kya kaam? Are you going out" "No. I am not going out. You will know in a few hours basket. Now sleep" "You really need to go now?" "Haan" "I want to come with you" "No" "Why?" she said cutely pouting her lips. He pecked her pouted lips and said "Sleep and relax yourself my basket". "Jao. Don't talk to me" she said frowning and lied down on the bed covering her face with the duvet.
Armaan smiled and lifted the duvet off her and saw her eyes closed and her pouted lips. He bent down and kissed her lips softly making her gasp with his sudden kiss. She pressed her lips tight not responding to him, showing him she is angry. Armaan smiled and licked her lips making her gasp and part them immediately. He explored her mouth in a short sweet kiss and pulled back as she started to respond, making her frown. He grinned at her. "You will get more kisses and lot more in a few hours jaan. Wait for sometime. You won't be disappointed. Don't move out of this room till I tell you. I love you" he whispered in her ear huskily. He nibbled and kissed her earlobe sending shivers down her spine. She trembled and fisted the bed sheet in her palm as he traced her neck with his nose and placed a soft kiss on her nape. He smirked looking at her flushed face and closed eyes. He went out whistling bringing her out of the trance. She hid her face in her palms blushing crimson. She was not able to sleep and kept on staring at the ceiling lost in her thoughts, with a smile.
*******
Riddhima paced to and fro in the room frustrated. "Samajhta kya hai apne aap ko. Stupid, idiot. It's been three hours he left the room. He didn't come here yet. I am not liking this distance between us at all armaan. Come sooon" she said aloud whining frustrated, not knowing armaan was coming to the room. She felt his presence and turned to the door to see him coming inside with a grin, which told her he had heard what she said. She covered her embarrassment with her angry expression and turned to the other side not looking at him. He went to her and kissed her hair moving them aside exposing her back to him. She trembled biting her lip as he kissed her back. He hugged her from behind and kissed her cheek. "Come with me basket" he said and led her to her room holding her hand in his. "Go. Freshen up and come with me" he said to her lovingly as they reached her room. "No" she said and stood stubbornly. "Kya hua basket?" "What were you doing these three hours? Do u know how much I was missing you? I am not talking to you and I am not going anywhere with you. You go and do your work". He smiled hearing her and pulled her by her waist close to him. He kissed her forehead and said "I was missing you too basket. I was preparing for a surprise for you jaan. I.." "I don't want any surprise. I love you armaan. I want Only You beside me. Nothing else" she said with love and hugged him. He smiled wide and hugged her back burying his face in her hair, inhaling her fragrance. He moved her hair aside kissed her nape making her shiver. "I love you basket. I missed you a lot. I missed you sooo much" he said with a lot of pain and love. Riddhima parted from the hug and looked at his moist eyes, tears ready to roll out of them. She kissed his eyes not letting the tears fall and kissed his forehead making him smile. They gazed into each other's eyes. "Go. Now freshen up and come. You surprise is waiting" he said after a few minutes and she nodded.
*******
"Close your eyes basket" he said and she closed her eyes. Armaan held her hand guiding her. He stopped when they reached the gate and opened it. "Are we in Our Home Armaan?" she asked in choking voice as her closed eyes filled with tears. "Aankhein kholo basket" she heard him saying in a soft tone and opened her eyes and looked at him and around. Yes, they were in their home. Riddhima's parents home, the home which had become ArmaanRiddhima's Home when they were together before. Atul and billy had bought the land next to this house and built the two houses where they are residing now. Like before, john comes to this house cleaning it twice every month and also took care of the garden here. Even though this house was a gate away from the other two houses where they are living now, armaan riddhima had never come here after they come back to India. This place was their home when they were together before five years and it holds lots of memories. They both didn't have the strength to come to this house alone. They once had thought they will live in this house their entire life together and when they were separated, they didn't have the heart to enter this house alone without the other. They both didn't have it in them to tolerate the agony this place will give them and thus never came here in the one month they are here. Now that everything is fine and they are back together, armaan was waiting for the rain to stop and he could give her a surprise here. Billy had given him the key to this house when armaan asked for it.
Armaan and Riddhima looked around the garden which they made together. He gave the key to her and she opened the door. They stepped in together holding hands. Tears flowed out of their eyes as they looked around, touching and feeling every wall of the house. They both saw the happiest days of their life flashing in front of their eyes. Them loving, singing, playing any music instruments, studying, eating, chasing, romancing, fighting, bickering, laughing, cooking, everything flashed in their heart. It is not just a building for them. This is their home, ArmaanRiddhima's Home. Armaan sucked her tears kissing her eyes and forehead and she did the same to him. They smiled wide hugging with moist eyes. They stayed like that for sometime. Armaan sat on the couch with her in his lap. They bored their eyes into each other's not saying anything letting their silence speak.
After sometime, armaan broke the silence and spoke looking into her eyes. "Having you in my arms is the best feeling in the world basket. I thought I cannot hold you in my arms again. I thought I could never look into your eyes again which mirrors your heart to me. I could never see your face again. I could never see you smiling again. I thought I could never feel you shivering and see you blush with my slightest touch. In these five years, every second of my life I was craving for you riddhima. I was just breathing, but I was not alive. You took my soul with you when you ran out of the bb court that day. I was living with your memories. I never stopped loving you. I don't know to live without loving you riddhima. I knew it will be hard when I made the decision to break up with you. But it was more painful and a torture that I could ever put into words. I knew you were my life. But I realized what you really mean to me after we were separated. You mean more than life to me. Tum meri jaan ho basket. I am incomplete without you. More than the pain of me being away from you, I was dying every second, thinking of the pain you will be suffering being away from me. I was shattered when I realized I broke you thinking I am doing good to you. I came here to our home after few days of our separation and found it locked. I contacted your friends in college to know about you. But none of them had a clue where you are. Then sapna told me you are not in India. I realized how much I have hurt you that you moved out of this country. I felt I don't deserve you after hurting you so much and went to U.S. I always kept myself busy with studies and work there. I punished myself for hurting you by being alone there. I stopped making friends. No one was with me. I didn't have the heart to let others listen to me, when you were not there to listen to me singing. I sang in my loneliness. I sing Only for you. I made a sound proof room in my flat and stayed in that room most of the time. I had your photos and music in that room. Your melodious voice filled that room and made me feel close to you. I sing there in that room thinking I was singing with you basket. I close my eyes and you will be there with me, talking to me, singing with me, loving, smiling, bickering with me. You were there with me emotionally. I could Never Forget your eyes which is always filled with love for me. Your eyes which were full of questions, confusion and pain on the black day of our life haunted me. I stopped myself from searching for you, because I knew the moment I find out where you are, I will be there infront of you and it will complicate things. I wanted you to move on from me and marry Sameer. But at the same time I didn't wanted it. Thinking of you with someone else killed me every second. When I came to know that Sameer was married, I thought you were married to him. Thinking of you as someone else's wife tore me. I wanted to kill myself..i" riddhima who was listening to him crying silently till now, placed her lips over his stopping him.
Armaan's each word, his tears and painful voice ripped her heart. His pain killed her. She listened to him with silent tears, wanting him to let out everything. When he said he wanted to kill himself, she couldn't take it. She kissed him assuring him of her presence. He kissed her back with equal love and yearning. Tears rolled out of their eyes as they kissed. They kissed for long minutes till they were out of breath. They wiped each other's tears ending their emotional loving kiss. She cupped his face and they stared into each other's eyes. "We suffered a lot armaan. We were separated physically, but we were with each other emotionally. All our painful days are over. We will be together all our life. This distance brought us close to each other more. It made us realize we are just lifeless bodies without each other. It made us realize what we are to each other. I am yours armaan, Only Yours. Only you have every right on me. I am Your Basket. My Soul, Heart and Body Belongs to you. I Belong Only To You. I don't like these tears in your eyes. I want My Ever Smiling Armaan . My armaan doesn't cry. He always smiles and makes others smile. I love my armaan who teases me, irritates me, loves me and not leaves even a single chance to romance with me" she blushed chuckling with moist eyes, saying the last few words making him grin at her. She continued poking his dimple with her finger. "I love this dimple and want to see it always, not these tears" and kissed his dimple making it deepen to its full depth. He nodded at her and kissed her palm which was on his cheek. "These painful memories are a part of our life now basket. We can't erase them fully. We can't forget our painful days easily basket. A way to forget them is to talk it out to each other. Let's speak it out as we do before. Let's make new moments and memories and try to forget them. Hmm?" he said. She nodded at him and placed soft kisses on every inch of his face and smiled at him with pink cheeks. He captured her lips in a soft kiss. They kissed promising each other they will be together forever and will not leave the other no matter what happens. It was a kiss of Love and Promise. They smiled at each other as the parted and she lowered her eyelids blushing. They stayed in each other's arms silently listening to each other's heart beats, cherishing the moment. Armaan broke the silence saying, "Come on, let's go to the terrace" and lifted her in his arms. She locked her arms around his neck smiling which reached her green eyes which automatically made him smile.
*******
The cool breeze made them shiver as they entered the terrace. He softly made her stand on her feet in front of a small table and stood behind her hugging her, keeping his chin on her shoulder. Her lips curled into Big Smile as she saw the full moon and what was in the table. The table was covered with a white table cloth with rose petals scattered on it. There was a small chocolate cake, one more bowl with food and two plates with forks and a knife. The silvery full moon glowed in the sky giving a romantic touch to the peaceful night. Five years ago they used to cook together and have their moon light dinner every full moon night in this terrace, after they spend sometime in the beach as they love to. "Our moon light dinner" he said turning her to face him and pecked her nose and forehead. She smiled wide and placed a lingering kiss on his cheek making his dimples deepen. He brought out a red rose bouquet which he was hiding and gave it to her. She smiled wide inhaling the scent of the flowers which made his heart skip beats. "You took these flowers from our gardens armaan?" "Yes. I wanted to celebrate our reunion basket. Luckily rain had stopped and it's a full moon night too, our favourite night of every month. So this is a little celebration for now. We will have a big one soon" he said smiling at her and saw her lips curving more into Big Wide Smile. "I love you sooo much armaan" she said hugging him tight. He hugged her back and whispered "I love you sooo much too jaan". She blushed deep red and her heart swelled with love as he said "jaan". They stayed hugging for a few minutes enjoying and cherishing their togetherness.
"Let's cut the cake" armaan said and gave the knife to her. He kept his hand above hers hugging her from behind and they cut the cake smiling to the fullest happily. They fed each other simultaneously. She closed her eyes tasting the cake making "hmmm" sounds. Armaan chuckled knowing her love for chocolate. She so loves anything with chocolate. She is a chocolate addict. She opened her eyes and looked at him smiling cutely. "I want the cake basket" "Toh khao na. Who stopped you?" "Okay" he said and placed his lips on hers making her gasp. Armaan licked her lips making her part her lips and kissed her tasting her chocolate mouth. She responded to him kissing him. They stopped out of breath and leaned their forehead on each other's. "The chocolate from your mouth is yummiest in the whole world basket. And Only I Can Eat It. This chocolate is mine for our whole life" he whispered huskily in a seductive tone licking his lips. She turned crimson hitting his shoulder and hid her face in his chest smiling. He laughed and hugged her back.
*******
"You cooked Pasta???" she asked surprised as she opened the bowl in the table. He nodded at her smiling and filled the plate. He sat on the swing there and she sat on his lap. He fed her the first spoon. Her eyes widened in surprise as she tasted the food. "Wow! This is Delicious Armaan" she said feeding him and chuckled saying "Your cooking has improved a lot". "Thank you madam" he said smiling at her. "So you were cooking this pasta and baking cake in the three hours?" "haan" "You are chooo chweeet" she said pulling his cheeks making him smile wide. They finished the food romancing and feeding each other. Armaan placed a cake piece on the other plate and gave it to her. She ate it feeding him. She closed her eyes making tasting sounds as she ate the cake. Armaan smiled looking at his basket. "You are eating as if you hadn't eaten chocolate cake in years basket" he said and it hit him as soon as the words escaped his mouth. She stopped eating hearing him. He was shocked. She had stopped eating Chocolates?????? Armaan cupped her face in his palms and stared into her eyes. "Basket tum.." "Whenever I see chocolate cakes it reminds of the cakes you bake for me armaan. I always wanted to eat cakes which you bake. But I can't na..so i stopped eating chocolate cake. I never had chocolates or anything which has chocolate in it in these five years" she said in a low voice as her eyes grew moist.
Armaan's heart ached hearing her. She loves chocolates and chocolate cakes like crazy. To think she stopped eating them was very painful for him. It might seem silly for others, but it was not for them. It was not about the chocolate. It is about the moments and memories related to it and their love. This is how they are. They don't need big things to make them happy. They found happiness and love in small things. Every single little thing about the other is important for them. He kissed her forehead and said "Now you can eat your favourite chocolate cakes whenever you want. After all, I learned to bake them only for you. To see the smile which appears on your lips when you eat them, which is the reason I am living basket. I will bake cakes for you and get you as much as chocolates you want. Hmm?" he said smiling at her. She smiled wide at him and gave him a lingering kiss on his cheek. "Soch lo armaan. You know me. If I start eating them now to make up for the loss of the five years, I might become fat" she said chuckling. "Tum jaise bhi ho, meri basket ho. I don't care if you are fat or slim. I love you for what and who you are. And you need to put on some weight. Look at you basket. You are so weak. I will take care of your food habits again from now" he said smiling at her and kissed her cheeks.
Riddhima smiled at him. This is her armaan. "Haan haan, I agree I have become very lean. But look at you, all these muscles and biceps. Lagta hai you had spent a lot of time in gym in these five years" "Haan basket. I found exercising relaxing for me. You know, like a stress buster" he said. He leaned to her ear and said naughtily, "So you have noticed everything about me. I knew it. Even if you pretend to avoid me, I knew you were looking at me and drooling over me. I felt your gaze on me always". She blushed deep red hearing him and hid her face in his neck hugging him. He laughed encircling his arms around her.
Riddhima pulled back in a couple of minutes and smirked at him. "I have the right to drool over you, only I have the right. You Are My Armaan. Only Mine" she said in looking straight into his eyes with possessiveness and immense love, making him grin. She continued "And you are speaking as if you were not looking at me. I caught you several times staring at me and I always felt your gaze on me too" "Yes I was looking at you. How can I resist not looking at you when you are So Very Beautiful? Only I know how I stopped myself from pulling you in rib crushing hug and kiss you like no tomorrow. You are My Basket. My Riddhima. Only Mine" he said with equal possessiveness and all the love he has for her. She blushed crimson and lowered her eyelids. He lifted her chin and made her look into his eyes. "You see the chocolate here?" he said pointing to the corner of his lips, where a little chocolate cream was there. "Take it off from there" he said. He stopped her when she touched his lip with her finger. "Wipe it with your tongue" he said naughtily. She shook her head in "no" blushing. "Come on basket" he said grinning. She closed her eyes shyly and pecked his lips. Shivers ran down their spines as her tongue touched his lip licking the chocolate cream. She gasped when his lips landed on hers when she tried to pull back. He tasted her chocolaty lips and entered her mouth making her shudder in his hold. She fisted his hair in one palm and dug her nails on his back, kissing him hard with equal passion.
*******
Armaan hugged her close to him as she leaned on his chest. She took his one hand which was around her waist and drew imaginary patterns in his palm making armaan smile. They both were silent letting the moment sink in their souls. They stayed like that for sometime. The silence was broken when armaan tickled riddhima making her giggle. Her giggles turned into laughter as he kept on tickling her. He smiled seeing her laughing so much. "Ar..armaan st..sto..stop it" she said in between her laughs. She tried to come out of his hold but his grip was tight. "No" he said laughing with her. His heart swelled with love and contentment as he saw her laughing. He so missed seeing her laugh like this. This is what he wants, His Basket in his arms, laughing and smiling happily. He stopped seeing her panting. She inhaled oxygen and leaned on his chest again as he kissed her cheek.
Riddhima shuddered as armaan moved her hair aside and traced her bare neck with his nose. She shivered and clutched his arm tight which was around her. He kissed her neck line while caressing her waist above her top. She arched back giving him more access to her enjoying the pleasure of his love and passion. Armaan turned her sideways such that he can look at her face. He kissed, bit and licked her neck, throat and collar bone making her loose her senses. Shivers ran down her spine and she rolled her eyes back in pleasure, massaging his scalp and fisting his hair arousing him, waking his desire demons. He nibbled and kissed her earlobes. His one hand went inside her top caressing her bare waist. She shuddered and gasped as his palm came to her front caressing her navel. She trembled with his passion and got out of his lap suddenly. She ran to the other side of the terrace. Armaan didn't realize what happened at first as he was in a daze. He smiled seeing her leaning on the wall breathing heavily with her hand on her chest.
Armaan walked to her and stood close to her. She opened her feeling him very near her. They looked into each other's eyes which was full of passion and love. He smiled breaking their eyelock and kissed her forehead. "Let's go" he said in a soft tone and she nodded. He took the leftover cake and went down followed by riddhima who took the other things. They went back to the other house. Riddhima smiled looking at him as he placed the cake tray in the refrigerator as she washed the plates and bowl. He sat there in the counter observing her. She knew what is going on his mind and heart and looked everywhere but not him.
