Anika walked into the room and sighed. It was New Year's Eve and the Oberoi Mansion was filled with guests, yet again. All these parties were extremely tiring for Anika.
She surprisingly accepted that she had some deep feelings for Shivaay Singh Oberoi but the marriage made her question her emotions. From the day they met, they always fought. Billuji would always find over the top accusations for her. When he accused her of sleeping with Daksh, her mind was in rage, her heart was broken.
When he saved her from that guy's clutches, she couldn't be more grateful. But now, this marriage was nothing but a tiring bond. She felt for him, he cared for her and amidst all this, that cheapdi found ways to get closer to her husabnd.
Even today she had seen Tia buzzing around Shivaay, for they had to pretend being each other's better half.
"Inn Oberois ko party karne ka itna kya shauk hai? Matlab jab dekho tab duniya bhar se logon ko apne ghar bulakar mehnat karte hai. Sabse jyada aise shauk toh Shivaay ne paal rakhe hai. Ab aise main kahan main inn logon ke parivaar ka hissa ban sakti hun. Birthday ho, toh party; Diwali ho, toh party; naya saal ho, toh party; baccha hoga, toh party. Agar celebration karni ho toh, apnon ke saath karo, duniya se kya lena dena.
Her body was tired and her mind and heart, irritated.
She decided to freshen up and sleep, how does the world care about her, after all, she isn't part of this family for them.

Shivaay heaved a sigh of relief as he reached one of his clients. He had finally managed to loose Tia in the crowd. She was hot on his tail from the moment the first guest entered. He couldn't shoo her away, the world considered them husband and wife. What he missed was his actual wife's presence. She surprisingly had vanished from the party scene. She might not feel anything for him, but he did. Everything about her started mattering to him more and more after Daksh's facade wore off. He still felt extremely guilty, even after Anika started to talk to him and was back to her normal self. He wanted this new year to mean a lot for both their lives.
"Shivaay Baby!" Tia's shrill voice sounded through the speakers. He winced at the volume. "Shivaay Baby, I hope this New Year brings a lot of changes in our lives. The unwanted dirt removed and the needful measures taken." Tia sneered while making the comment. She wanted to make sure Anika heard this. Little did she know, Anika had retracted to her room's safe haven. "I love you."
The onlookers burst into applause. Half of them were drunk, the other half tipsy. Most of the elders were also back in their rooms. Only Tej continued mingling with the guests.
Shivaay only bit his lip in response. Surely Tia must have alcohol in her system to make such announcement. He forced a smile to the guests around him and tried another way for escape.
On the base of the staircase, he found his brothers talking gravely about something. He thanked the stars and went towards them. Before he could reach them, Tia appeared in front of him. The smile that had started to appear, vanished. Why had Tia become so clingy?
"Shivaay Baby, on New Year's Eve we are supposed to kiss our partners, our love." Shivaay gulped. Tia surely had lost some marbles. He took a drink from the waiter nearby and took a sip. He wanted an escape from this situation at any costs. He did not believe in such stupid mannerisms but when Tia first said the statement, the only thought he could conjure was Anika. Her face, her eyes, her lips... He shook his head. The drink must be spiked. Seeing no other possible situation, he dropped the drink on his expensive suit. "Oh Gods Shivaay Baby. Tumhara toh suit kharab ho gaya. I think you should splash some water."
"Yes, you are right Tia. I should go up and maybe change." And possibly not return.
He went ahead and was greeted by his grinning brothers. They looked like they were trying not to laugh. "Hato tum dono, mujhe room main jaana hai."
"O, aapko nahi lagta Shivaay Bhaiya ko room main jaane ki bohot jaldi ho rahi hai." Rudra said while looking around.
"Kya matlab hai tera?" Shivaay raised his eyebrows.
"Kuch nahi Shivaay. Tu ja." Om shook his head and told Shivaay to continue.
Shivaay gave them one last questioning look and went to his room. As soon as he was out of sight, OmRu burst into laughter. They had been observing Anika and Shivaay for the evening with nothing better to do. Anika had come to them, earlier saying that she was heading upwards in Shivaay's room and try to make sure that none of the guests go there, so as to avoid an awkward situation. do this without spoiling you night she had added. For reasons such as this, they loved her. She was the best for Shivaay and that guy would not understand this. They watched Shivaay's various attempts to get rid of Lady Baba and had been laughing all night. They knew Shivaay would finally escape to his room and were waiting for that to happen.

I had originally planned a One Shot but this is unexpectedly long and continuing any further might be torture.
I would love to know how you felt about this. It is so off topic that connecting won't be easier so you might have to forget pregnancy and nafratbaaz shit. 😉
Comment what you liked and what you didn't. Like the post if you don't wanna comment.
Ignore the grammatical errors, I'll check on them later. :P
Love,
Krishi
P.S. Anika hates parties because Tia gets to be around Shivaay. 🤣
And I wish you a very Happy New Year 🤗
