Ananya was walking angrily inside the airport followed by Akash who was constantly calling her from her back.At last Akash had to run behind her to get a grip of her.He held her hand and she stopped and he asked,"Kya baat hai Ananya kyu gusse mein ho itna?Aisa kya kar diya hai maine?"Ananya angrily grinned,"Mera haath choro Akash aur aaj tum bilkul bhi mere saamne mat aana."Akash gave a teasing smile and replied,"Aaj hum dono ki ek saath mein flight hai aur tum mujhe flight se to utaar nehi sakti."Seeing Akash replying like a shameless,ignited Ananya's anger more and she said,"You're disgusting Akash you don't even remember aaj kaunsa din hai aur tum mujhse puch rahe ho.How could you Akash?"Akash was totally without clue about what Ananya was talking.He genuinely asked,"Kaunsi date ki baat kar rahi ho tum?Let me guess..."He started thinking and said,"Aaj mera ya tumhaara birthday nehi hai,hamaari anniversary nehi hai.To phir kaunsa date hai?"Ananya made a fist to control her anger and replied,"Kasam se aaj tum mere saamne mat aana nehi to main aaj tumhe maar hi daalungi."Akash gave a seducing smile and said,"Haaye!!Vo to tumne mujhe saalo pehle hi maar diya tha."Ananya nodded her head out of disappointment and started walking again and Akash again tried to stop her.Akash and Ananya are pilots in the Inde Airlines Company.Akash fall in love with Ananya,the moment he saw her and on confessing,she too reciprocated his loveand after a few months of courtship,they got married 3 years ago.Before the marriage,everything was just like a fairy tale for Ananya but after the marriage,according to her everything changed as well as Akash.
Back into the present,after reporting they were waiting in the pilot's waiting room for their flight when Natasha,an airhostess of the airines and her fiance Rohit,co founder of Inde Airlines,came to the waiting room to give the card of their marriage to everyone.After giving cards to Ananya and Akash,Natasha could notice that something was wrong in between them.She asked,"What happened Akash Ananya??Is there something wrong between you two?"Akash was about to say something but Ananya said to Natasha,"You know Natasha,tumhaari shaadi hone ja rahi hai so marriage tips deti hu kyuki you know na Iam very experienced in that.Shaadi ke baad agar Rohit kabhi koi important date bhul jaaye to please gussa mat hona,kyuki vo kya hai na..."She gave a angry look to Akash and then said,"Men will always be men.Shaadi se pehle vo tumhe princess ki tarah treat karenge par shaadi ke baad tumhaara status,puraani pheeki bina namak ke daal ki jaisi ho jaayegi.Iam telling you,abhi se apne hone waale husband par apni pakad mazboot karo varna pachtaaogi meri tarah."Natasha asked,"But hua kya hai Ananya batao to sahi?"She made a crying face and said,"You know Natasha,vo aaj ki date bhul gaya.Can you just believe that?Aaj ki date koi kaise bhul sakta hai?"Natsha covered her mouth and said,"Haww!!Akash aaj ki date bhul gaya?How could he?Mujhe tak yaad hai."Akash said,"Off oh!!Tabse sab log aise mystery create kiye ja rahe ho.Bolo na kya bhul gaya?"Ananya replied,"You're really disgusting Akash.Huh!!"Ananya said,"Chalo hum chalte hai aur ha apne dost ko kehdo ke mere saath aaj baat hi na kare."Rohit was watching them silently for quite a long time and as soon as they left,he opened his mouth.He tried to console Aaksh and said,"Koi nehi aisa hota hai.Natasha bhi in fact mere saath aisa hi karti hai.Dekh lena koi stupid sa date hoga like pehle date par kab gaye the,ya pehli baar film kisdin dekhne gaye the,ya phir pehli baat ghumne kab gaye the etc etc.You know larkiyo ko na ye saare dates bohot achche se yaad rehte hai.In saare dates ki encyclopaedia hai vo."Akash was relieved thinking that at least someone supported him and so he said,"Thank God yaar at least tum to mere saath ho.Ab main kya karu insaan hu,insaan to bhulte hi rehte hai na.Isme meri galti hai kya agar mujhe koi rubbish sa date yaad nehi raha to.Agar vo mujhe yaad dila deti na to I swear meri galti na hone par bhi main apologize kar leta."Rohit said,"Exactly!!Par ye baat inhe kaun samjhaaye?Inko ye simple si baat nehi samajh mein aati ke agar hamaari memory dates ke maamle mein itni hi achchi hoti to hume school mein history mein achche marks nehi mil jaate?"Both Rohit and Akash laughed at this and in that moment only,Rohit's eyes fall on someone and he muttered to Akash,"Aaj to main bhi gaya."Akash turned to find Natasha standing there.She walked upto them and said,"Achcha hua ke main apna purse yaha bhul gayi varna mujhe pata hi nehi chalta tum log kitne mean ho sakte ho.You know Ananya was right!!Men will always be men!!"Akash chuckled and said,"Men nehi hote to tum log shaadi thore hi karti."Rohit burst into laughter on that statement alongwith Rohit.Natash nodded her head and said,"You're disgusting too Rohit!!Both of you!!"She took her purse and then left from there.
In the cockpit,Ananya was doing pre-take off preparations.Akash soon joined her and as he was about to approach her,Ananya raised her finger on his face and said,"Don't you dare Akash!!"She glared at him and resumed her work.Akash made a sad face and he too kept on doing his work.The flight took off and landed at the appropriate time.All the crew checked into their appropriate hotel.Akash went to take a bath while Ananya was unpacking her luggage.When she was doing so,she found a gift wrapped packet inside her bag.She was quite surprised and bubbles of happiness started flowing in hr heart.She opened the box and found a beautiful chain with a diamond heart pendant containing both their photos in it.It was a very big surprise for Ananya but it was still not done yet when she found a letter in it.The letter reads -
"Mujhe pata tha ke mere wish na karne par tum bohot gusse mein rahogi ke main aaj ka din kaise bhul gaya.Main kuch bhi nehi bhula Mrs Saluja,mujhe bohot achchi tarah yaad hai ke aaj hi ke din 3 saal pehle maine tumhe shaadi ke liye propose kiya tha aur vo bhi mid air saare passengers ke saamne and you were so embarrassed.Maine jaan bujh kar tumhe aaj wish nehi kiya because I wanted to surprise you.Happy marriage propose day."
Ananya didn't know how to express her happiness and with whom she should express her happiness.She tied the chain around her neck and she kissed the letter.Just then a wet hand wrapped her waist for which Ananya was so surprised that she screamed.She turned her head and found Akash,in his towels and he was putting his head on Ananya's shoulder from back.He asked,"Kaisa laga?"She replied,"Bohot achcha ye mere liye laaye tum?How sweet!!"Akash replied,"Nehi parosi ki biwi ke liye laaya kaisi baate karti ho Ananya.Vaise ab to paas aa sakta hu na?"She kissed on his cheek and said,"Ha aa sakte ho,par mujhe gift ki koi zarurat nehi thi,tumhe yaad hai na bas mere liye yehi bohot hai."She stood a bit away from him and asked,"Aur ye kya pehen kar rakkha hai?"he gave a naughty smile and said,"Tum mujhe aise pehli baar to nehi dekh rahi ho.Tumhe to mujhe bina towel..."Ananya covered his mouth and said,"Shut up Akash!!Tum bohot bolte ho."He pulled her towards himself and said,"Ooo ek gift par ek kiss milta hai,to har roz ke gift ke liye kitne kisses milenge?"He tried to kiss her,but Ananya stopped him and said,"Achcha tumne mujhe to gift de diya,par ab batao tumhe kya chahiye."Akash said,"Par tumne to already mujhe gift de hi diya hai aur vo bhi sabse expensive,isse bhi zyaada."She asked,"Vo kya?"Akash smiled and then went to open his bag.He took out an envelope and then handed it over to Ananya.She opened it curiously and and read the letter.Akash said,"The best gift of my life,the symbol of our love,our baby.You're pregnant Ananya."On getting the news of her pregnancy,Ananya was super excited and she didn't know how to react.She hugged Akash tight and then gave him a peck in his lips.He made her lie down on the bed and then rained her face with kisses and then said,"Listen ye return flight tumhaari delivery se pehle aakhri flight hogi,uske baad jab meri beti thori bari ho jaayegi phir tum dubaara apni job resume kar lena."Ananya pushed him and sat on the bed and said,"Tumhe kaise pata ke beti hogi?Beta bhi to ho sakta hai.Iam sure baby Akash hi aayega."Akash replied,"No baby Ananya aayegi,dekh lena aur main usko itna spoil karunga,itna spoil karunga ke tum hum dono ko sambhaalte sambhaalte paagal ho jaaogi.Vaise bhi betiya hoti hi hai spoil hone ke liye."Ananya said,"Vo to main already paagal ho hi chuki hu.Khair main naha kar aati hu."While she was getting ready to take her bath,Akash had an evil plan in his mind and said,"Main bhi soch raha hu ke maine bhi thik se nehi nahaya hai.To..."He slowly started walking towards Ananya an d on guessing his intentions,she started backing off,but before she could protest,he grabbed her hand and pulled her inside the washroom alongwith him and locked the door from behind.
