I LOVE YOU
"Taani...!" A voice echoed in the Singhania mansion one fine morning, she rushed downstairs listening to her MIL voice.
She took the blessings of her MIL and FIL, it was her first day to hospital as she is a doctor by profession and the previous 2 months were hell busy with taani and rey marriage and many more functions in the house.
Taani is the youngest bahu in the house, the eldest being Ridhima and the elder Sharon, their family is complete after the marriage of Reyaansh with taani.
Armaan and Riddhima are blessed with a baby boy Aarav, Sharon is 8th month pregnant and the whole family accepted taani as their own family member except her husband.
Reyaansh has been a reserved and serious person from his childhood and he had not experience the feeling of this love and relationships seriously. He had always been sincere in his education and work and he is the same now, however Rey's mom and dad have a hope that taani would change him. He always wanted to live his life, succeed in his life without bothering anyone in his life and be alone till the end, but things turned upside down as rey has been emotionally blackmailed about the marriage and he had no choice.
As this was against his wish he started consuming alcohol and return home late nights as he didn't want to even look at her face as she doesn't have any importance in his life for him.
In these two months of marriage taani proved to be the perfect bahu in the whole house, Aarav was so much attracted to taani and if Armaan and Riddhima both were at work, taani used to play with him and spend time with him. And taani was in full form to take care of Sharon also and her mood swings.
Now, the day has come which she waited for, she was offered a job in Sanjeevani and she is going to work from today, her happiness had no bounds.
After taking their blessings taani's FIL gave her a box
She opened it and it was a SAMSUNG GEAR FIT inside it
T: papa, iski kya zarurat thi?
RD: arey, meri bahu doctor hai! Toh lagna toh chahiye na!!!
Chalo ab time waste mat karo aur niklo.
Taani was going and rey collided with her, rey's dad stopped rey and
RD: beta, taani ko hospital chor do!
R: nahi, mujhe der ho raha hai!
Saying so he left the place.
Taani caught a taxi and left the place, she reached sanjeevani and after a long time looking at the hospital she felt so relieved and happy. She reached home at 1 PM. It was her morning shift and she has completed it the first day.
Taani returned home and
RM: arey taani beta, tum aagayi?
T: morning shift hai na maa! Ho gaya!
RM: acha kiya, chalo khaana khaakey baat karte hai.
After their lunch,
RM: beta, hum Sharon ka godh bharayi ke bare me soch rahe they, uska 7th month khatam honey ko aa raha. Humey jald se kardena chahiye.
T: toh theek hai na maa! Karengey!
RM: toh parso tak saarey arrangements ho jaane chahiye!
T: parso?
RM: beta, abhi der ho gaya hai, parso acha muhurat hai isiliye.
T: theek hai maa, me sab dekh lungi!
She was busy the whole day, the next day after her shift, she managed arranging all the necessary things and done the shopping also.
On the day, she completed the morning shift and came home. All the last minute arrangements were done and everyone was ready in their home.
The guys were on the terrace and the girls were in the function, doing the ceremony for Sharon. Taani was busy in taking personal care of Sharon and her food and medicines. Riddhima was taking care of the food for the guests and her MIL and FIL were busy with the guests.
On the terrace
A: bhai, acha mauka hai, aaj rey ko realize karwana hai ki wo taani ke saath kitna galat kar raha hai!
S: koshish kartey hai.
A: koshish nahi bhai, wo kab tak suffer karegi??
S: toh ye suntan kab hai hamaari baat?
A: jis tareeke se bolna hai na, usi tareeke se sunega
S: matlab?
A: uske hi style me bolengey!! Rudely!!!
S: bhai rudely???
A: tu bass mere baton ko follow kar!
A: yaar, basket ko miss kar raha hu, pata hai kitni sundar lag rahi thi?
S: acha, toh main kya bolu?
Rey was busy studying a file.
A: oye, chotey miyan, zara family ko bhi time diya karo!
S: jaha tak main isse jaanta hu na, isne ab tak taani ko chua bhi nahi!
A: I wonder yaar, maa aur papa ne aisa kyu kiya, iss patthar se shaadi karne se acha hai ki taani ko ek pyaar karne waala pati miley. I donno uspar kya beet rahi hogi!
S: but hum sab bohot lucky hai ki taani iss gahr me aayi, I mean mujhe Sharon ki tension nahi lena parta aur tumdonon ko aarav ki.
A: haa yaar, wo apni doctor ki duty bhi nibhati hai aur ghar ka saara kaam bhi!!!
R: ho gaya aap donon ka?
Kya taani taani laga rakha hai? Doosre topics nahi miley kya baat karne ko?
S: hum insaan hai, teri tarah robots nahi hai har waqt office k bare me baat karey. Aur humey apni biwi ki fiqr rehti hai, teri tarah unhe ye feel nahi karwaatey ki unhe apne marriages ko regret karni padey.
R: tum log yeh sab kya bol rahe ho?
A: sach!
S: bhai isko bolke koi faida hua ki ab hoga? Isko toh sirf apni padi hai! God forbid agar taani ko kal kuch ho bhi jaaye toh he won't bother. Feelings nahi hai issme!!!
R: tum donon ki bakwaas ho gaya toh main jaa raha hu.
Rey left the house and armaan and swayam were sorry for talking to rey rudely, little did they knew that he was actually affected.
Rey drove to the bar and ordered chilled beer for himself and after he got the order, he brought the glass till his lips but he couldn't gulp that down. He kept the glass there and left the bar; he just drove a long drive and reached home.
That night, Swayam tucked Sharon in her bed giving her a good night kiss on her forehead; rey passed through their room and looked at the cute scene. He went to his room and saw that taani was removing her bangles; her neckpiece, earrings and all her jewellery were neatly placed on the dressing table. There was only a small nose stud, second tops in her ears and her engagement ring in her finger.
She started arranging everything and rey was quietly observing her. She went into the washroom and changed into a satin white gown and she took her pillow and put it on the floor. Rey saw and he felt bad looking at her, she slept silently and peacefully on the floor.
Rey was tossing right and left on his king size bed, his brothers words were echoing in his ears, he rolled to the side where taani has slept and he adored her sleeping figure. He also dozed off looking at her peaceful form.
By the time rey woke up, taani left for the hospital. He searched for her, but he came to know that she caught a taxi and left as it was an emergency.
He wanted to drop her to the hospital but the strange feeling was very strange and new to him. The flash of last night was in his mind. She was looking so simple and beautiful. And then she took the pillow and lay down. That again made him sad.
He went home soon that evening; he was somehow very excited to go home whereas there was nothing special.
By the time he reached home, the whole house was immersed in fun. The whole family was seated in two groups and everyone was playing anthyakshari.
Girls vs boys was happening and rey's dad, armaan, swayam were in one group and rey's mom, riddhima, Sharon in another group.
A: rey, tu aagaya! Join us na, teri zarurat hai!
R: mujhe gaaney nahi aatey!
S: toh company de! Aakey baith!
And the round started off with the boys,
Armaan started
Tu hi yeh mujhko bataa de
Chahu me ya na
Apne toh dil ka pata de
Chahu me ya na
Itna bata du tujhko
Chahat pe apni mujhko
Yun toh nahi iqhtiyaar
Tanha lamhon me apni
Bhunti ho tere sapne
Tujhse hua mujhko pyaar!!!
Tu hi ye mujhko bata de
Chahu me ya na
Apne to dil ka pata de
Chahu me ya na
Na to the girls
Naa re naa re
Naa re naa re
Nananaare naare
Naa re naa re
Na naa re na naa re na naa re na na re
Barso re megha megha
Barso re megha megha
Barso re megha barso
Metha hai kosa hai bearish ka bosa hai
Kosa hai kosa hai
Bearish ka bosa hai
Chal chal chal chal chal chal chal chal chal chal chal chal chal chal chal
Chal chal saqta chal
Na naa re na naare na naa re na na re
Barso re
Ra to boys
Rey starts off surprisingly
Resham si hai ye hawaayein sanam
Aao zara paas aayein sanam
Jaage jaage armaan hai
Jaagey jaagey hum
Ooo
Jaagey jaagey armaan hai
Jaagey jaagey hum
Ho jaane do ab faasle kuch toh kam
Everyone were staring at rey without blinking their eye
R: kya? Aise kya dekh rahe ho? Gaao toh problem nahi gaao toh problem?
Taani chai leke aao! Me thak gaya hu!
Saying so he jogged upstairs shocking everyone.
He went into his room and smiled to himself. Meanwhile taani came to his room with a tray of tea and snacks.
And she was about to leave.
Rey held her hand and stopped her, he made her sit beside him and
R: tum doctor ho na?
T: ji!
R: Mere neck me pain ho raha, do something!
Taani took out the ointment and started to massage his neck with her thumbs.
Rey closed his eyes feeling his pain oozing out, later they had dinner and rey was rather light hearted today enjoying the gossips and talks of the family.
After the dinner, taani washed the dishes and cleaned the kitchen slab, gave her MIL and FIL their medicines and swayam gave Sharon so taani doesn't need to, after this she entered the room with a tiresome walk and fallen face. Rey noticed this and signaled her to sit beside him while there was laptop in his lap.
Taani went and sat beside him and took off the laptop from his lap
Rey saw her with confusion
T: laptop ko lap me rakhna nahi chahiye, isiliye neck pains and back pains aatey hai. You should keep it on a study table or something that level your eyes with the screen.
Rey took the laptop in his hand and closed it keeping on the table beside him.
Taani took hold of a pillow and rising up from bed but rey held her wrist.
R: yahi so jaao na!
T: yaha?
R: haa
T: iss bed pe?
R: haa
T: aapke saath?
R: haa taani! (His change was good but taani asking so many questions to sleep on bed was hurting him, actually it was his fault that he did not allow her ever)
They both slept on their sides of the king size bed, but the new change was welcoming their new and fresh life...
Next morning
It was 8 and taani left for her hospital as usual and rey drove to his office with a happy and light mood, but he was missing taani for sure. Unless he makes her sit in his car and goes for a drive he won't be satisfied.
REY POV
She is not so bad; I mean I could have given a chance earlier. If I wouldn't have limited myself to be like a loner, things would have been much better.
What was the reason for his loneliness?
Was it his studiousness, Seriousness or his version of being sincere and akdu everywhere?
Why is she suffering because of his stupidity?
~~~
He reached home that evening and an urge passed through his body that he wants to be with her, as close as possible. He sighed in his helplessness and saw taani busy in the kitchen and Sharon was talking to her standing near the kitchen slab. Hot soup was boiling on the stove and taani went towards the fridge to take something and when she turned back she saw that Sharon bent down to take her jhumka from the floor which fell down and in this process her dupatta flew onto the stove and was struck in it. She was busy in putting it in her ear meanwhile taani saw that her dupatta caught fire.
T: bhabhi!!! She yelled and ran towards her pulling off her dupatta from her shoulder and in this process her hand burnt as the end of dupatta which caught fire landed in her hand.
She soon left it and winced in pain tears squeezing out of her eyes. Swayam and Rey both rushed into kitchen followed by her MIL and FIL. Rey went and held taani by her shoulders and here Sharon was sweating as she was scared to hell. Swayam hugged Sharon and took her to their room calming her down.
Later in TAAREY room
Rey was blowing air and applying burnol in taani's palm and his worried expression didn't go unnoticed by taani.
She was wondering what made him to get so concerned about her, he applied burnol and looked towards taani who was deep lost in her thoughts.
R: dard ho raha hai?
T: na... nahi , ab nahi ho raha.
R: taani, tumhe kuch chahiye toh bolo, don't try to do it with your hand. Mujhe bulaao!
Saying so he opened his laptop and started doing his office work, He didn't feel like doing it and wanted to spend some time with her but he was feeling weird, not understanding his own feelings.
He sat on his bed with his laptop on a wooden plank on his lap, soon taani took the laptop with the left hand and kept it on the writing table and left the room.
Rey was amazed at her open behavior, she did that his neck won't be struck again like it happened last night but he was feeling as he was left alone. And this feeling was hurting him now which he always preferred to be.
After sometime taani came into the room and smiled at rey who was sitting on the writing table and working on the laptop.
She called rey for dinner and taani was having dinner with a spoon, with a very great difficulty. Rey was having an urge to feed her but his face fell as everyone was there.
He went to the bedroom after their dinner and stood near the window; he held the window pane and clutched the window pane in his hand. A tear squeezed out of his eye. He was busy fighting with his heart and mind and taani entered the room.
She went towards the dressing table and removed her jewellery, but her palm was not co-operating with her. he started taking steps towards taani and she dint notice that.
Rey went so close to taani that his breath was fanning her neck and she was quite startled at his proximity, she turned towards her right and found him inches away from her.
His hands travelled towards her ears and started to remove her earrings, her eyes automatically looked down when he was doing this and his hands travelled to her neck removing the chain in her neck. He then started to lose his sense and pulled her close clasping the curves of her waist which made her gasp in shock, his eyes were scanning her face intently and she was losing herself in those dark brown orbs. She then realized that they both are so close and shied away breaking rey's trance.
She took her night gown and entered the washroom and started to change and rey sat on his bed closing his eyes with his palms.
It was 15 minutes but taani did not come out, she did not bolt the door as she knows rey doesn't enter the room. But rey was worried about her hand and whether she needs some help. He slowly turned the knob of the door and peeped in and found an irritated taani fidgeting with her hooks of her UG with her left hand. She was in with a long skirt and her whitish creamy waist was exposed and her UG hooks were disturbing her as she is not able to hook them properly so that she can wear her night gown.
He entered the washroom and she left the hook of her UG and crossed both her hands around her chest leaving it unhooked and she couldn't turn either way towards him. His desires were completely at the edge of savoring her in all ways possible but he should control it now, he took both the ends of the UG and clipped it, his touch on her bare back left goose bumps on her skin and he smirked at her shivering body. He looked at her towards the mirror in which she just washed her face and her soft supple pink lips were looking so fresh and he wanted to capture them and bite them senselessly.
He understood that things are going out of the way and he was leaving the room but then realized that taani can't wear night gown properly. He took the night gown from the rod on which it was placed and made taani face him, her head was dropped down due to her blushing and slid the gown from her head making taani comfortable. She passed her arms into the sleeves and once the night gown travelled her heavy curves and reached the ankles, he grabbed her waist and pulled her towards him making her crash on his chest and zipped her gown on the back.
It was looking like a fairytale for both of them and silently rey left the washroom and taani followed him.
They both slept that night and had many emotions running through their body; they both dozed off with a contended smile on their faces.
It was Sunday the next day and rey was at home. Taani took a leave that day and others all had to go somewhere or the other leaving only taarey at home.
Rey was busy in his office work of his laptop and taani was in the shower. Suddenly she hopped out of the washroom with a towel around her reaching her mid thighs, her hair with her conditioner on and her body shivering with water droplets on, her burnt hand was wrapped in polythene.
He was shocked and stunned at her
T: rey!! Bathroom me chipkali hai!!!
he was controlling hard to stop his laugh and managed to take her into the washroom ensuring that it will go away.
As soon as they went in, the lizard went out through the ventilator and
R: taani! It's gone ab chalo ready hokey aajaao! (Honestly he dint want to say that)
T: nahi!!! (Clutching his shirt tight in her fists)
Agar wo firr se aagaya toh????
Rey mujhe bohot darr lata hai spiders se, cockroaches se aur lizards se. me nahi aaungi iss washroom me. Wo firr se aajayega and me firr se aise darr ke mare baahar aajaungi
Soon her panic was sealed with rey's rough lips, he wanted to calm her down and thus captured her lips, and he gave up finally. His hands were on her jawlines and started kissing her passionately, the aura was provoking taani and she also gave up contributing in the kiss. he turned on the shower and removed his vest on his upper body and taani saw the greek god in him. He smirked as he caught her checking him out and pulled her closer slowly unwrapping the towel. She was still shy and he turned off the light in the wash so that she don't feel shy. He pushed her towards the wall and savored her lips, then her neck and shoulders nipping her skin madly as the aroma of her body wash was driving him crazy.
He then took her in his arms and threw her on the bed covering her body with his, they both have accepted each other as soulmates and they never knew when at all that commitment happened. They both were happy that this was their day, just for them.
He made her love till both of them were more than tired and she whole heartedly accessed him to make her his.
Their bodies were plastered and rey was on top of her with a white chiffon blanket on them and he was busy nipping her neck madly.
T: rey!!!
She moaned in pain
He faced her smirking,
T: aap aise karogey toh me ghar me muh kaise dikhaungi?
She said caressing his hair which was falling into his eyes. He then started to soothe her neck giving her open mouth kisses. Taani arched back in pleasure clutching his hair in her fists. he pinned her left hand onto the bed as it is burnt and he was careful not to hurt her.
After a while rey saw taani's eyes were teary and kissed off her tears.
R: taani, I am sorry!
T: kyu???
R: maine tumhe khud se door rakhkey bohot galat kiya, tumhe bohot hurt kiya. I am sorry taani!
T: rey, ab wo sab baatein kyu kar rahe ho! Wo sab puraani baatein hai! I forgot ki u behaved with me like that.
R: toh naye baatein kya hai?
Taani blushed furiously, she was completely his now which proved the scene around them, her hair which was shabby, her lips which were mercilessly bitten and her skin which had enough proofs of their love.
She bit her lowerlip making him go insane and pulled on the blanket overhead, yet again entering into the valleys of love.
