Anika, gauri and bavya present their cake to rudra, it's the perfect chocolate cake but shivay walks over to the table and destroys the cake with his hands. Anika for the first time in ages feels happy to see his tadi back. She can finally see glimpses of the old shivay in this person. But very soon he goes back to his indifference look, but she is anika after all and she can't give so easily. Wiping the smile away from her face she brings back the anger and walks over to shivay, grabbing a handful of the smashed cake she smears it all over shivay's face.
Shivay stood still to have the cake rubbed on his face because he got her touch, the touch that he had been craving for the past 3 months. Her coming back to the mansion as the owner gave shivay a shock but at the same he was relieved that she was around him. He had tried to hate he in these past months but had failed because heart knew that whatever anika did to be thrown out of his life must have a reason behind it. He knew, he understood her more than she did herself, he couldn't believe that she is the gold digger she was pretending to be. Without thinking shivay also picked up the cake and returned the favour by covering her face in it too.
Soon a great big cake fight broke out between the oberio family members. Om and gauri cake faced each other as well as birthday boy rudra and bavya, not only them but even the elder family members also joined in. Everyone was running after one another like crazy, anika chased after shivay while he ran around the hall and the out into the pool area. She ran towards him but he moved out the way and she was about to fall into the pool but he couldn't let that happen. Shivay quickly grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her into him.
Falling into his arms bought an amazing sense of satisfaction to her heart, she looked into eyes but those eyes that once had love for her, that twinkled with mischief once were now dead. There was nothing in them anymore, she felt guilty for doing this to him, for killing apart of him and secretly promised to herself that she will bring him back no matter what. He started to let go steadying her on her feet but she stopped him by holding onto his hand. He stopped, she looked into his eyes once again but he wore his indifferent mask hiding his inner feelings. "Do you really not care" " no" "really I don't matter to you" "no" "you don't feel anything for me" "no".
Shivay was adamant not to admit how he was still affected by her, he didn't want to suffer the heartbreak again. But anika's determination was softening him up little by little. He wanted to walk away but couldn't as he had been longing for their moments together for months now, this here felt so good that he wasn't able to just walk away.
Still looking into his eyes, she bought his hand up and entwined their fingers together, she saw his expressions change, his eyes teared slightly as he sighed, "you still don't feel anything" "no". She moved her other hand to his face, starting from his hairline she traced his face with her fingers, moving down his cheek, caressing it, causing him to gasp. She lightly touched his lips with her fingertips and then rested her hand holding the side of his neck, "can you feel it now" "no", even though he was still denying it, she could see the love and passion slowly creeping back into his eyes.
She let go of his hand that she was holding and moved both of her arms around his neck, bringing her face close to his, she rubbed her cheek with his and whispered in his ears, " do you still not feel anything for me", he remained silent this time, but she felt his breathing deepen and his lips shiver next to her ear. His silence showed that he still had feelings for her but that wasn't enough for anika so she proceeded her mission of getting him to admit that he is still hers. She continued to caress his cheek with hers, his heart loving their closeness but his mind not wanting to go back there again, " you're not my wife anymore... you've lost the right to do this" he whispers in an attempt to stop her, somewhere deep inside wishing she didn't stop. "If you really don't want me to carry on you can always push me away", she whispered back waiting for him to pull away but he couldn't, his brain screaming at him to walk away but his heart his body not obeying.
After a few minutes she knew that he wanted this as much as her, smiling in triumph, she pulled away slightly and felt him stiffen a little. She then started to lick the cake off his cheek, he gave out an audiable groan, her actions were causing an havoc inside him, letting go of his resistance, he gripped her waist making her shiver at the contact. Continuing the torture she licked the cake off his cheek moving to his ear were she asked again " do you feel it now"her voice cracked with the inexperience and nervousness, but she knew after all the hurt she had given him, now winning him back won't be easy, she had to be bold. But at the same time she was nervous not knowing how she would handle the rejection if he does pull away now.
Shivay however was lost in the beauty of the moment but her question broke his trance. She waited for answer but he remained silent yet again, desperate for him to react she bit his earlobe, hissing in pain he grabbed her hair and pulled her face in front of his. Her eyes were still closed but she could feel his hot breath fanning her lips which indicated how dangerously close they were. He held her face still there, watching her face, eyes closed, lips shivering, she looked so hot, reminding him of the times he had put her in such situations and she had moved away but today she was willing giving him what he wanted, why?
His mind was full of questions but his heart and soul not bothered with anything but here and now. Slowly she opened her eyes to see him staring back, she saw the love and affection back in his eyes, looking intensively at his lips she was about to move forward when suddenly he picked her up and threw her in the pool behind. He then jumped in after her, adjusting herself in the water she saw him standing in front of her, " what was that for" "I thought we needed to cool down". Anika felt annoyed not to mention slightly embarrassed, she started to walk out of the pool. But as she walked past him, he grabbed her by the wrist and twisted her into his arms.
She was shocked at his action but at the same time She felt relieved that he didn't push her away. Pulling her into a hug, he slowly let go of the arm he was twisting behind her back and put his arms around her, she too reciprocated. Finally after months of anguish they were both at peace. Enjoying their reunion, both of them let go of any reservation, both crying with tears of joy and fulfilment. After some time shivay moved her hair to the side to expose her neck, where he planted a few wet kisses, causing her clutch onto him even tighter. Not wanting him to stop but at the same time she was hesitant about them being in the middle of the pool.
Whispering nervously she voiced her worries, "shivay...we're in the pool" he smiled slightly at her awareness of their sudden as he was totally lost in her. Sighing deeply he slowly pulled away to see her shyly blushing but at the same not pulling away showing how much she wanted this too. He bent down and placed one hand under her knees, lifting her up, he carried her to their room and stood her up in front the mirror, whilst he stood behind her looking at the perfect image in the mirror. As he put his arms around her he felt her shiver, becoming concerned about her health he whispered, " you should go and get changed... before you fall I'll" with that he let her go. She smiled as she admired his care for her and then getting a towel and some clothes from the wardrobe she went to the bathroom.
Shivay cursed himself for throwing her into the pool otherwise he could've finally fulfilled his heart's desire. Slapping the back of his head he also got changed, just as he finished he heard anika's phone ringing in her bag but before he could located her bag it stopped. He was about to walk away from it when it started ringing again, who could be ringing her he thought, rohit??... or worse her fianc...her fianc... she was engaged to someone else now... so what was all this?? Irritated by his thoughts, he decided to check her phone, glancing over to the bathroom he made sure that she was still in there and then picked up her bag but as the zip was open things fell out. "Nooo" he yelled, feeling annoyed, what if she came out now and thought he was going threw her stuff, he really didn't want anymore misunderstandings, in frustration he frantically started putting everything back.
Suddenly his hands came to a halt as they picked up something familiar, it was her manglesutra, he teared up as he saw the chain but at the same time smiled at the fact that she had kept it with her all this time. Just then the bathroom door unlocked, he quickly placed the manglesutra in his pocket and stood up before she came out. To his amazement she came out wearing the lingerie that he had once gifted her, his mouth fell open in shock as his eyes stared at the sight in front. He was lost in her once again but this pleasure was short lived as her phone rang again and bought him out of his trance.
Quickly coming back to the situation shivay watched as she reached for her phone and answered it but before she could talk he raced over, grabbed the phone out of her hand and smashed it on the floor, shattering it into a thousand pieces. Startled by his anger she looked on as he stamped on the broken pieces, " what are you doing she asked in amusement. "What am I doing...what are you doing...who was it...your fianc...you got engaged right so what's all this" he spat in anger, whilst gesturing at her up and down, pointing at what she was wearing. Oh my god billuji is jealous she thought, finding it hard to suppress her smile, not wanting to aggravate him any further. But it was too late, he saw her smirk, he walked over, grabbed her but the shoulder and shook her, "what the bloody hell is so funny" her asked, practically in tears, not being able to understand what was happening.
She remained silent but placed her hands on his cheeks to calm him down, "do you honestly think I have moved on", caressing his cheeks she saw how painful he was finding all this. He saw finding it hard to keep himself together, " I don't know what to think... and m only going by what I see" " oh really you see everything do you?" He looked at her in confusion as she showed him her hand, her ring, his ring. He stared at her hand through his blurred vision for a moment before realising, that she was still wearing his ring. She how he relaxed and smiled and then held her hand, kissing it, kissing his ring, finally the relief of knowing that she was still his, he took into a hug.
He didn't have any words to explain how happy he felt knowing that she felt the same about him. Breaking the hug he turned her around to face the mirror again, anika blushed at seeing herself in such short attire. He stared at her in the mirror until she too looked up and then he took out the manglesutra out of his pocket, " where did you get..." she started but he just shushed her to stop any words or arguments interrupting these beautiful moments, for a change she listened to him. They both remained silent as he tied the manglesutra around her neck and got the sindoor from the dressing table to fill her hairline. Nothing was said but both of them felt the emotional relief in finding back the immense joy that they both thought they had lost.
