**NOTE**.. u know how ipshita always tried to impress shiv.. in d beginning of this ff.. well now she's done wit that.. she's moved on..because she realized shiv was her friend and will always be her friend.. and that meant a lot more to her.. instead of trying to win his love over.. d love that was neva hers.. (yes I'm makin her a positive now)
Gauri makes her way inside.. to find kaya sleeping.. she slowly sneaks in.. oh ye.. sneak in π .. she goes to the bathroom.. changes out of her sari.. that she had been wearing since yesterday.. she changes into a cute salwaar kameez.. she couldn't figure out wat to wear at first π .. but she wore a bright color salwaar kameez.. as she was a newly wed now.. a new bride π .. bright colors were to be worn.. she changed.. looking at the time.. it was almost eight.. confused as to y kaya was still sleeping.. she decided to wake her up.. and then head to the kitchen to make some breakfast for kaya as she had already eaten.. π³ π π
But before she could head out to the room to wake kaya up.. she heard a knock on the door .. confused about who it could be at this time.. she made her way towards the door.. she opened it.. to find ipshagun.. ahem I mean ipshita π π on the other side
Gauri: ipshita tum yahaan
Ipshita: kaisi ho gauri.. I need ur help.. can u come wit me π π
Gauri: helpβ¦ kyun kya hua β β
Ipshita: I'll tell u⦠ur not busy r u
Gauri: nahin I was just about to wake kaya up
Ipshita: well can u wake her upβ¦ and then come wit me.. I really need ur help π
Gauri: haan ek minute.. let me just go wake her up
Ipshita: ok thanx.. and tell kaya to get dressed and come over there
Gauri: over there kyun
Ipshita: kyun ke dadi chahti hain.. tum aur kaya wahin breakfast/lunch/dinner khao.. jab tak.. alok baba wapis nahin aajate π
Gauri: lekin..
Ipshita: don't ask me.. its dadi's orders.. now wake her up.. and hurry up
Gauri: acha gauri went waking kaya up.. who was sleepy.. and was telling gauri to stop waking her up.. π π π gauri told her to get up.. hurry up and come to the house for breakfast.. kaya just nodded and went bac to sleep.. gauri gave up.. as she made her way outside.. to find an impatient ipshita waiting..
Ipshita: chalein.. chalo
Gauri: haan haan chalo.. lekin mujhe batao toh sahi.. baat kya hai
Ipshita: wohhh kya hai .. I was trying to cook breakfast.. cuz everyone's still getting ready..or still sleeping.. and u know how me and cooking go.. so I thought u could help me π π π gauri smiled.. as she and ipshita made her way towards the kitchen.. as gauri prepared herself to cook..
Gauri went in the kitchen..
Gauri: ok so wat r we cooking?? π
Ipshita: some typical paratha breakfast and kheer
Gauri: kheer this early
Nikhila: arey gauri beta tum??
Gauri: namaste aunty π³
Nikhila: namaste beta.. kaisi ho tum.. kal shaadi kaisi thi
Gauri: shaadi achi thi aunty π as gauri smiled.. remembering her and shiv π³ .. getting married at the mandir π³ π .. nikhila went to a different side of the kitchen.. preparing something
Gauri: so ipshita why are we making kheer??
Nikhila: ipshita's making kheer π
Gauri: haan she said.. she wanted to
Nikhila: ipshita tumne bataya nahin
Ipshita: arey aunty batane hi wali thi .. wohh kya hai na.. yesterday's party which u weren't here for.. I got engaged to anupam π³ π³ π³ gauri stood there.. π² π² π²
Gauri: kyaπ² π²
Nikhila: haan beta.. sab kuch itni jaldi ho gaya.. ke pata bhi nahin chala.. aur ab ipshita's busy trying to impress anupam by making kheer π gauri and nikhila shared a laugh as ipshita stood there blushing.. π π π³
Hearing the sound of laughter coming from the kitchen.. shiv made his way towards the kitchen π .. confused about.. wat could be so funny in the morning π π π β¦ he was by the door.. as he froze on d spot.. gauri .. gauri yahaan kya kar rahi hai π and once again.. he was mesmorized by her simplicity and her beauty π .. as gauri laughed with the two other ladies in the kitchen.. as she lit up the stove.. putting the food.. as she started cooking.. wit the help of ipshita..
shiv stood there.. seeing the three ladies chat away.. shiv smiled.. as he thought.. how great it was π .. his wife and his mom and his friend.. chatting.. away happily.. π shiv thought.. he thought that this is exactly how it'd be π³ .. if gauri had married him under the right circumstances π³ .. exactly like this.. Wohh bhi din aayega gauri.. wohh din zaroor aayega π³ as shiv looked at gauri one last time.. made his way upstairs.. π
Everyone was at the breakfast table.. ready to eat.. they had woken up late due to the party last night.. kaya was already there... Helping the ladies.. fix the table.. everyone started eating breakfast.. shiv had also joined.. even though he wasn't hungry.. he had already eaten π.. . He decided to eat.. two reasons β one gauri had cooked π .. and two.. He didn't want anyone bugging him.. as to y he didn't eat breakfast cuz they all know he luvs food π π
Dadi: arey wah.. kheer toh bahut hi achi bani hai π
Nikhila: aap ki beti ne banayi hai achi toh banegi shiv looked at nikhila.. he knew gauri had made the kheer.. as shiv thought beti ne.. beti na nahin bahu ne.. bahu ne π
Dadi: gauri beta tumhare khaane ki tareef jitni karo utni kam lagti hai
Gauri: dadi aap bhi na.. π I'll agree to that dadi as shiv smiled.. he continued to eatβ¦ everyone finished up breakfast.. everyone went to get ready.. ladies wanted to go do shopping today and wat not.. π the guys got ready to go to the office.. π
Ipshita, kaya and nikhila made their way upstairs to check on something.. gauri started clearing the table..
Shiv: hi jaan π
Gauri: hi shiv.. tum yahaan kaise π³ π
Shiv: wat.. I can't be in my own dining room..
Gauri: of course u can be.. wat if someone sees us
Shiv: well jaan its not like im hugging u or kissing u π π
Gauri: shivvv π³
Shiv: maine kya kaha.. waise im not complaining.. I could use a hug and a kiss π
Gauri: shiv stop it.. π³ π³
Shiv: waise gauri.. u noticed something π
Gauri: kya..
Shiv: well after our marriage.. u didn't get ur proper entrance.. welcome in the house.. wit d aarti and all that π π π but
Gauri: but wat??
Shiv: well u did one thing as per tradition π
Gauri: oh yea.. wat's that π
Shiv: well u know how a newly wed bride.. always cooks d nxt morning.. makes something sweet.. and well today u made kheer..u lit d stove as per tradition π gauri smiled
Gauri: hmm that's true... I neva thought about that.. (isn't shiv sweet.. he knows all d traditions π π)
Shiv: yea but.. doesn't the family gift the new DIL after she cooks something π
Gauri: I don't know I think so
Shiv: hmm well since no one knows ur the DIL of this house.. I can give u the gift.. π as he leaned in giving her a quick peck on the cheek π³ π³ ..before gauri could respond.. he ran upstairs.. to get ready as he had to head to work π β¦ ipshita made her way downstairs.. helping gauri.. in d kitchen.. ipshita thanked gauri fo all her help.. as the ladies went out to shop.. per plan.. and d day went by more quickly then anyone would think it would go.. in d evening.. shiv and gauri once again.. sneaked out of the house π π .. saying they both had work emergencies.. they made their way towards the cliff.. to have a picnic π .. shiv had already told gauri to pack up food and wat not.. well everything needed for a picnic.. π
Shiv and gauri drove to the picnic site.. d cliff π .. this time.. they didn't have to sit on the car hood.. as they had brought themselves a blanket π π .. shiv laid out the blanket.. as gauri put the food basket and wat not.. on it.. they both sat on the blanket.. since it was a little chilly.. gauri sat in front of shiv.. resting her head on his shoulder.. wit her bac to his chest π³ π³ π³ .. shiv wrapped his arms around her.. as they both sat under the cozy blanket.. under the clear sky.. a few stars π³ π³
Shiv: so how was shopping π
Gauri: shopping was good π³
Shiv: wat'd u buy?? π
Gauri: nothing
Shiv: wat?? Nothing
Gauri: well I went window shopping they both continued to talk.. as gauri remembered seeing a mangalsutra in one of the shops π β¦ she loved it.. she could picture herself wearing it π³ .. and she knew that day would come soon.. so she didn't think about it so much π³ π³ .. she just waited fo that dayβ¦ hoping it'd come soon π .. they both continued to talkβ¦ as they both decided to eat.. because unlike shiv.. who had eaten breakfast twice. π π π Gauri didn't .. once again they fed each other.. and time flew by.. as d sky was filled wit stars now..
when a while ago.. there were just a little bit of stars.. as they ate.. shiv shamelessly flirted wit gauri. π π Makin her blush every single opportunity at hand π³ π³ .. not that she was complaining π π π .. she admired him.. she had seen him angry, sulking, acting mature yet childish all together π³ π³ π .. and she was glad .. just like him π π .. to be a part of his life.. π³
** d cough cough's happened on d cliff.. just cuz I don't mention 'em.. doesn't mean they don't happen** so just imagine them at d right situation
