Hawas Ke Pal
An AR Mini SS
Part 5



'Tumne bhulaya Rakesh...???' Riddhima asked, banging in his cabin... 
'Aao Riddhima, haan mujhe kuch baat karna tha...' Rakesh said as he was holding something, looking at it... 
'Kiya baat hai...???' Riddhima asked, sitting in front of him... 
'Pata hai yeh kiya hai...???' Rakesh asked showing her the paper...

Riddhima rise her eyebrows waiting him to reveal what it was, Rakesh just smirk seeing Riddhima expression and kept it on middle of the table so she could see it... Riddhima move forward, to have a closed look at it and was surprise to see Armaan sign on it... 

It was a check which was sign by Armaan, Riddhima was confused to see it and her eyes move on the amount filled in it making her wonder why would Armaan give such a big amount to Rakesh... When Riddhima continue to stare at the check, Rakesh again took it making Riddhima look at him... 

Armaan had left late last night when she was sleeping because when she wake up, she was alone neatly cover with the sheet on her bare body... She felt sad that Armaan didn't wake her but let it go knowing he can't stay whole night as he is her customer... 

Riddhima was expecting a call or at least a MSG from him but than she realized that Armaan doesn't know her number and neither she know anything about him other than his name and he belongs to a rich family... For a second Riddhima felt sad that thinking Armaan will not come back but her heart ask her to believe him for once... 
'Tumne apni jaadu toh chala diya Mr. Mallik pe, issiliye woh chahta hai tum hamesha uske liye reserve rahe... Maanna padega Riddhima, tumhari aane se kaise mere business kaha se kaha poch gaye... Issiliye maine socha hai, tumhe toh kabhi jaane nehi dunga lekin jaisa Mr. Mallik chahte hai main waisa karne koh tayyar hun...' Rakesh said...
'Aur kiya chahta hai Mr. Mallik...' Riddhima asked...
'Yehi ki, tum hamesha uske liye available rahe... Aur aajse, tum sirf usko attend karenge... Kissi aur koh attend karne ki zarurat nehi hai...' Rakesh said... 

Riddhima was surprise with this because she never thought, Armaan would do such a thing for her in just a matter of few hours after he confess his love... He has already started to make things easier and better for her, she felt an unknown warm in her heart hearing it but didn't let it show on her face...

Riddhima didn't want Rakesh to doubt on them and she understood why Armaan must have put the offer in front of Rakesh so neither he doubt on them... After years, for the first time Riddhima got a hope that soon her life is going to change for a better future... 

She was lost thinking about Armaan, forgetting that Rakesh was sitting in front of her... Her heart was dancing with happiness and now she has started to trust Armaan that he would fulfilled his promise... How much truth was behind his words that he has started to act by taking this small step... 
'Waise main Armaan ke jhaga hota toh main bhi nehi chaahunga tumhe kissi aur ke saath share kare... Lekin paison ke zyada kissi koh zindagi mein aur kiya chahiyeh hota hai right...' Rakesh said keeping the check safely in his table drawer...

At the moment, Riddhima wish to answer him back but thought not to comment on any none sense he speak... So knowing why he has call her, Riddhima stood up to leave as it was getting difficult for her to control the small happiness Armaan just gave her by taking the step... 
'Anyways jo tum kahe, wohi toh mujhe karna hai... Mujhe koi problem nehi hai, hoge bhi toh usse fark nehi padega so it's better to let it go...' Riddhima said... 
'Accha hai tum ab yeh baat samajh gayi...'Rakesh said...
'Kissi ladki koh aasaan nehi hoti yeh sab karne, lekin zindagi ke aage kissi ka zor nehi chalta... Anyways if that's all, I m leaving...' Riddhima turn around to leave...
'Ek minute, that's not all Riddhima...' Rakesh said... 
'What now...???' Riddhima asked turning with a not interest look... 
'Mr. Mallik tumhe lene 8 bhaje aa raha hai, tayyar rehna...' Rakesh said... 
'Ok...' Riddhima said...

Without exchanging another word or giving a look towards Rakesh, Riddhima left... Rakesh didn't get any doubt because it was her way of showing attitude to him every time they meet or come in front of each other... So he didn't think about her behavior as he was too happy with the money he was earning having Riddhima in his business... 

Rakesh knows it would be very difficult to handle some customer because most the people would die to spend a  night with her but with the sudden change, he had to handle those people... He didn't want to go against Armaan for some reason because he had a feeling that Armaan might do what he says if he try to betray him...


RIDDHIMA'S ROOM 


As soon as she enter her room, she couldn't hold her smile which form on her lips... She was so happy at the moment, she never thought that she would get to see a day that she could actually be happy thinking someone would come and change her life like this... 

It was indeed a small step but it seems like a very huge one to her, the day she accepted it was her faith, she never thought that a day would come that a guy come and try to take her away to give her a better future with all the love a girl deserve in her life... 

True, she has stop believing and trusting guys from the day her own cousin put his hands on her body... The day, he has took the most precious gift that god has given to her which is only to be given to her soulmate or life partner but sadly, she lost it before she could even met him and know if he exists... 

After days, months and years, again she felt that she got her life back... With Armaan stepping in her life, making her believe that there is a guy, who could love her after knowing the truth of her life till date... Riddhima knows, it wouldn't be easily for him to believe and accept it, but he was brave enough to accept it so easily...

Without caring that what other would think if he ever introduce her as his life partner, his soulmate or his wife... Riddhima knows almost every single person in NYC is aware of her identity and there is no chance that people wouldn't talk about her character...

Still not thinking about any sort of thing because he just love her and that only matter to him, he was willing to do anything to take her away and start a new life with her, making new memories and let the past get fade without letting it affect their future... 

At the moment, she just want to hugs Armaan as tight as she could... Shower him with kisses which she never did for anyone... She was so happy, she felt that suddenly everything turn beautiful around... She didn't mind where she was at the moment because now she believe, Armaan would take her away from this hell to the heaven where she belongs... 

Being happy after years, Riddhima dance around as she remember about Armaan with a big smile on her lips and sparkles twinkling on her orbs... She remember those moment she spend with Armaan and the previous night specially as it did change her life... 

Finally she let herself fall on her bed, closing her eyes as she try to control her fast heartbeat and breath... Huge smile on her face as she was amaze with her own behavior because she never thought, she would be able to smile genuinely...

It was a big shocked when Armaan confess his feelings, her mind got numb and that was the reason that she wasn't able to believe those words Armaan express to her... She knows the way she reacted, he didn't mind and he understood why she react like that... 

He had done just the way she request, she knows it wasn't a way to believe that he loves her but being in his arms, making her claim like never a guy had done before, it make her believe, he is the one... That is the reason, she decide to give him a chance, give them a chance... 

Remembering that Armaan would be coming to take her out, Riddhima open her eyes with jerk and started to search her phone to check the time... It was the beginning of the day and still hours are left till he come to take her out... 

It was the first time Armaan was going to take her out and she was excited... Getting to know that Armaan has take his first step to free her from Rakesh, now she couldn't wait to see what else Armaan would do for her to make her believe that how much he needs her in his life... 

Nothing matter how she end up in there with him and that make her amaze to see how can a guy be so fine about something like this... Sure her past wouldn't leave them easily but Armaan make her believe today, like any other girls, she still got the right to dream and make a beautiful future... 


EVENING


Some how Armaan manage to keep himself calm till the end of working hours, he had been having difficult to control himself as at the moment he just want to see Riddhima... He knows by now Rakesh must have inform Riddhima about him going to meet her at night... 

Armaan wondered if Rakesh would tell her any details about the deal they had seal between them or not... If not, he would make sure her aware of it because than if Rakesh try to betray him, he could easily get him behind the bar but somewhere, he knows Rakesh wouldn't dare because if he did than not only his business, he will lost everything he has earn by now... 

Still Armaan wanted to see Riddhima expression and he knows she would be the happiest person at the moment... He just wish to see her once but he couldn't leave with meetings and presentation being schedule for the day and his father wasn't there to take over in his absent... 

So when the clock shows 5 pm, he quickly collect his belonging and left waving to his PA... She was surprise to see him leaving so early and seeing his smile, it amaze her to see him being so happy... Last few days she has seen how much worried and tense he was but seems like today, he got something very precious... 

Praying god to keep him happy, his PA also quickly went to his cabin to arrange things before leaving as she got to leave early, thanks to her boss... Not thinking what his PA must be thinking, Armaan make his way to home but stop near a shop as he had been thinking what he could do for his lady love...

He has already plan where he would be taking his lady and wishing everything to be perfect on their first outing which is their first date, Armaan got some necessary things before heading back to home once again... Thinking how Riddhima would react, soon he was in his home and getting ready for the night... 

By 7 55 pm, Armaan was outside the pub, waiting for Riddhima... He kept checking the watch but it seems that tonight even the time wasn't in his favor... It was running so late and he sit impatiently, tapping the car steer as he try to control his excitement but he has no control over him...

Finally his wait came to an end as he saw Riddhima coming out, as beautiful as ever in a simple orange sleeveless dress which has a deep neck... It ends up to her middle thigh, she wore a black high heels and just earrings as only jewelry... She has left her hair open, minimum make up as it wasn't necessary with that beautiful smile on her lips and sparkling eyes make her look out of the world... 


RIDDHIMA'S DRESS 





When Armaan eyes caught that beautiful smile on her lips, he couldn't help but let his smile turn huge letting the dimples take place on his cheeks... He couldn't help but admire the beauty and just sit like that, without blinking his eyes... 

Riddhima move towards his car, when finally she spot him waiting on the other side of the road... She couldn't help but smile widely seeing him, when she saw his lost expression, she make his way to the car... She felt her cheeks heat up changing its color with Armaan intense gaze... 

Armaan trace was broke hearing a car honk, he move out seeing Riddhima coming towards him... He still kept his eyes on her face as he stood out near the door closing it... Next moment Armaan was taken surprise by Riddhima as she hugs him as soon as she reach him... 

Armaan wasn't expecting to be welcome with a hug so was taken back but when Riddhima whisper a 'Thank you', Armaan understood it was because she was happy with the small step he has take to make her free... Armaan just move his hands on her back and move out from the hug, kissing her forehead... 
'Chale...' Armaan asked leading her to the passenger seat...

Riddhima smile seeing how gently he was treating her, he open the door for her and when she comfortably sit, closed it and next second he was back on driver seat... No one speak another word as Riddhima kept looking outside, admiring the beautiful night while Armaan take her to their destination for the night... 

After driving for few minutes, Armaan stop the car making Riddhima turn towards him... Armaan smile and took a bag from the back seat... Riddhima just kept staring at him as he kept it on her lap, moving closed to her putting her hair strand behind her ear so he could get a good view on her face...
'Armaan, yeh...???' Riddhima asked looking at the bag and back to him...

She gasp feeling Armaan so closed as she turn around and see his face closed to her, Armaan didn't leave the chance to move his knuckles sensually making Riddhima shiver... She felt her cheeks changing color, to control it she bite her lower lips and lower her eyes...

Armaan smile seeing her flush face and he felt warm in his heart to see how much their closeness and touch affect her... He couldn't stop caring her cheek as he admire the beauty, he has his dimple smile on his face all this time as he took his time to capture her imagine in his heart... 

When Armaan didn't stop and kept staring at her, Riddhima close her eyes to control her fast heartbeat... She hold the bag tight but couldn't move herself from the seat as it gives goosebumps her to feel love in his single touch and her heart warm up with happiness... 

Armaan was closely, observing her and when she didn't utter a word, he thought to cut the silent and as his eyes were getting desperate to see her in his chosen dress which he had got for her... Some where he knows she would deny but he just wish her to accept it... 
'Yeh maine tumhare liye gift laaya hun, I hope tumhe accha lage...' Armaan said still his eyes on her face...
'Iski kiya zarurat...' Riddhima said looking towards him but was cut by him...
'Zarurat nehi tha lekin mera dil kiya toh maine socha, jisse mein mohabbat karta hun uske liye itna toh kar sakta hun... Main chahta hun tum aaj yeh peheno, mere liye please...' Armaan said as he capture her eyes with his orbs locking it in a eye-lock... 

Riddhima couldn't deny at the moment her eyes met with his which shows unconditional love in it for her... For the first time in past few hours, Riddhima felt so glad that she agree to him give a chance, them a chance to let him filled her life with happiness and love... 

She was so overwhelmed that she open her mouth to confess her feelings but stop before she could let any words out... Her mind over power her heart, making her control because it was just a matter of few hours and she have her whole life ahead and they have to go through god knows how many more tests before she get free from Rakesh...

Armaan wait for Riddhima to speak but when she stop and look down back at the bag, he felt happy... For a moment, he thought Riddhima was going to deny again but when she just hold herself, it make Armaan happy that she accept his first gift for her... 
'Tum mall mein jaakar change karlo, I will wait for you here...' Armaan said as they were outside mall... 
'Ok...' Riddhima said quickly moving out from the car... 

Armaan sit back, looking at Riddhima as she left to change... Only he didn't know what was going in her mind and heart... He has his dimple smile as he wait for Riddhima and he couldn't help but imagine her in that dress which he has select for the first time in his life for a girl other than his mother... 

Meanwhile, Riddhima heart was banging excitedly... Also Riddhima scold it before being out of control which almost make her confess to Armaan... She has manage to hold herself the previous night without confessing those three words and her feelings but getting so much happiness in one day, she was about to spill it to Armaan...

She knows Armaan would wait till she accept him with whole heart, also he knows that she has very strong feelings for him but she was just scared to express it due to the life she had been living from few years... She was very glad that Armaan didn't force her to confess her feelings, he was happy with the fact that she was willing to give them a chance, him a chance to prove his pure love... 

As she could clearly feel his intense gaze until she move inside the mall, out from his sight, she took a deep breath to control her fast heartbeat... She move to the changing room as she scold herself for not keeping her feelings in control... 
'How could u even think of confessing him Riddhima, paagal mat bano... It's just a mare of few hours and u have a long way to go to get yourself free from Rakesh... Haan yeh baat sahi hai, Armaan has prove himself in less 24 hours that he mean whatever he said the previous night but... Itna apni hopes high mat karo, tum acche tarahse jaante ho na Rakesh koh... Tum uske liye sone ki murgi hai, woh kissi bhi haalat pe tujhe nehi chodenge... 
Rahi baat Armaan ka, usne trust toh jeet liya apne first step se... Lekin mujhe khud pe control karna chahiyeh, jis din woh mujhe puri tarah Rakesh se free kardenge, us din mein usse apni dil ki baat kahungi... Woh mujhse bepannah pyar karte hai toh, zarur meri confess ke liye inthizaar karenge... So for the time being, just enjoy this new phase of your life...' Riddhima mumble under her breath as she finally enter the changing room...

She took out the packet from the bag, making herself decide what she should do to control her feelings before letting it fully out in front of Armaan... Deciding to enjoy every moment with Armaan, Riddhima open the packet to see a beautiful dress...

She couldn't help but admire his choice and she felt over the moon to see first gift from the man, who loves her uncountable and she loves but unfortunately she can't confess to him... So thinking it would be better to give him the happiness he deserve for loving a girl like her, she quickly change thinking how he would react seeing her in that dress... 

Outside the mall, Armaan was eagerly waiting for Riddhima... She had been in for last fifteen minutes and he wonder why she was taking so much time just to change... Not being able to sit longer in the car, Armaan came out... He stood with his back resting on the door as he check his mobile and make a call to check if every arrangement were completed... 

His eyes were on the mall entrance but as the person asked how long they would take to come, he move his eyes to his wrist watch to check the time... It was that very moment he felt the breeze change around him, making his heartbeat fast... 

He felt her present with the breeze making him closed his eyes for a moment before open it, looking towards the entrance... Armaan felt his breath got stuck with his heart missing a beat as he saw Riddhima coming out, carrying the dress beautifully making the dress more gorgeous than it was when he first saw it in the shop... 

Riddhima eyes were on the ground as she didn't know how she was looking in that dress because it has been years that she haven't wear anything like this... From few years, she had been wearing those expose dresses which hide a little part of her body but today, Armaan hand got this beautiful dress for her which only expose her hands and back... 

She felt the change in atmosphere suddenly as she step out, she saw Armaan looking at his watch but before he look towards her, she couldn't help but drop her gaze back on the ground as she slowly make her way towards him and the moment she felt his gaze, her heart started to bang on her chest once again... 

While Riddhima was trying her best to keep her heart in control, Armaan wasn't behind as he lost his heart to this particular girl once again... His eyes didn't obey and kept focus on her as it move from head to toe as he capture her imagine in his heart... 

The dress were just perfect for her and he was amaze to see how it fit for her so well as if it was just for her... It was a full length red sleeveless and backless dress as it has a exposing back... Dress were simple without any design just strips but it was most beautiful one for Armaan so far because his lady love was carrying it so gracefully... 


RIDDHIMA'S DRESS





Very well knowing Armaan gaze were on her, Riddhima look at him to see his dreamy dimple smile with love visible in his eyes... She couldn't help but blush seeing how he was looking at her as it was the first time in years that someone look her with so much emotions, no lust... 

She felt her heart dropping back to normal rate as she felt warm and happy to have someone who admire her beauty with love, not lust... She never thought, she would get to live a day until Armaan enter and he has prove that still there are people out in the world, who could love a girl the way they deserve to be... 

Tears form in her eyes, seeing him admiring her beauty feeling overwhelm to have someone who loves her so deary... Armaan was too lost in her to see her expression but when his eyes finally move back to her face, he was surprise to see those tears in her beautiful orbs...
'Hey, what happen...???' Armaan asked moving closed to her... 

Riddhima shake her head from side to side as she try to control her tears without letting it fall but the moment Armaan hands move on her bare arms, rubbing it softly to comfort her, she couldn't hold it longer as it started to fall on her cheeks freely...
'Hey my love, u can tell me anything... What happen hmm...???' Armaan asked as she stood with her head low... 

Riddhima couldn't control herself longer and just move close to him, hiding her face on his neck... She did try her best not to let more tears fall but it kept falling without any stop... Armaan slowly move his palm on her bare back, sending shiver in their bodies feeling the warm... 

Riddhima feel better with Armaan touch and she just didn't try to stop her tears as it was making her feel better to let it out in front of him knowing he would be there to comfort her whenever she need someone to pour out her heart, be it her silent or words... 

Letting her stay like that for sometimes, Armaan pull away and hold her face... Riddhima still didn't look towards him as he wipes her tears, Armaan understood what she must be feeling at the moment because whatever happening in her life with him by her side, it was a whole new chapter to her... 

She has stop building any dream with any guy, her dream guy... She wasn't expecting this sudden change and Armaan was willing to wait until she accept this reality in her life because it's a huge change after the life she had been living from last few years... 

So to make her feel love and only love without a single lust between them, Armaan just sucks those tears which was still continuously falling from her eyes... Riddhima let her eyelash closed feeling Armaan warm lips touching her cheeks, drinking the unwanted water leaking from her eyes... 

Neither of them speak a word because their emotions were pouring out through their action, after sucking the tears, Armaan care her cheeks waiting for her to look towards him... Riddhima just stood like that, not having the gut to look at him thinking any time this dream might break... 

Armaan very well understood the trauma she was going through, he just kiss her forehead letting his lips linger on her skin for a little longer... That small kiss on forehead make Riddhima heart warm and it make a stop to hear tears as a part of her heart believe that she should slowly started to accept this change in her life... 

As they were getting late, without changing another word Armaan lead her to the passenger seat... Making her sit comfortably, taking the bag and kept it on back seat, soon Armaan took the driver seat and they were on their way to the final destination... 

Seeing Riddhima lost, Armaan hold her hand which was kept on her lap... Riddhima look at him as he blink his eyes as if saying to believe him, believe them that new chapter of her life has started and there was no chance of going or looking back...

After half an hour drive, Armaan stop the car and came out as Riddhima was lost thinking how all of sudden she got so lucky... First time in years, a guy was taking her out not to fulfilled his desire but to give some happy memorable moment to remember in future... 

Not realizing they had reached to their destination, Riddhima kept staring the dark sky until her thought were distract by Armaan... He open her side door, forwarding his hand as she look at him being clueless... She didn't realized when Armaan has stop the car and was now standing holding the door for her to get down... 

Also with his hand forward, to let her hold and his eyes shows that once she took it, he would never let it go... Riddhima couldn't help but let the smile on her lips as she hold his hand, carefully Armaan make her get down from the car, closed and lock it before they walk away... 

Riddhima was so lost, she didn't realized where they were unless she got to witness the beautiful sight in front of her... She was surprise to see, he has take her to one of the most beautiful place in the city... Brooklyn botanic garden, one of the most perfect place to spend a night with lover... 

Seeing her surprise expression, Armaan couldn't help but smile as he lead her forward, putting his arm around her waist... Riddhima look towards Armaan, to make sure if they were really there... Armaan nodded his head, giving his dimple smile which make Riddhima smile fully as she look ahead... 

Riddhima couldn't help but fall in love with this place as it was looking so beautiful at this time... They were walking towards the bridge, the lights were giving much needed light to the dark night... Riddhima was just busy admiring the view and Armaan admiring the girl in his arms to whom he has lost his heart... 


BROOKLYN BRIDGE





As they kept walking, neither of them speak a single word for minutes... Riddhima was too busy capturing the beautiful surrounding and Armaan busy capturing her priceless expression which shows a new glow in her face with a killing smile on her gorgeous lips... 

Soon they cross the bridge and Armaan lead her further inside the garden... They walk for another 15 minutes when Riddhima suddenly stop making Armaan come out from his staring section... He move to look ahead to see what make Riddhima stop, he smile as he look at her to see her shocked expression...

He couldn't help but thought to capture the moment so leaving her in that shocked state, he move a little ahead taking his mobile and before she realized what he was up to, Armaan capture the moment in his mobile saving it so he could look at the picture whenever he wants to admire his love in that pretty dress... 

When Riddhima kept staring without blinking her eyes, Armaan move by her side again putting his arm on her waist... It brings Riddhima out from her shocked and look at Armaan, to see how her each expression could make him fall over and over again in love with her...
'Like it...???' Armaan asked...
'Like...??? Are you kidding me Armaan...' Riddhima asked shaking her head...
'Means u love it...???' Armaan asked not being sure... 
'Of course, this is... So freaking amazing...' Riddhima said looking back to the place... 
'Anything for my love...' Armaan said, dropping a quick kiss on her temple... 

Riddhima just smile as she got back to admire the arrangement, it wasn't like a normal setting for a couple as she don't know how he has manage to arrange a table with bench which usually used for picnic with families and friends... 

In the middle of the greenly nature, with candles and Chinese lanterns of different sizes, fairy lights and also not to be ignore that there were rose plants just a hand distance... Table cover with cloths, dinner serve for two with candles and flowers vase to decorate the table... 


DECORATION FOR DINNER 





Seeing how lost Riddhima was, Armaan once again lead her and make her sit before taking the place in front of her... Still than when Riddhima didn't utter another word, Armaan couldn't help but chuckle to see how Riddhima was trying to make herself believe all this were real... 

Holding her hand across the table, Armaan got her attention as she admire the place... He felt so happy to see that look on her eyes, it seems like she got a little part of her dream complete but it was taking all her energy to accept it... Armaan knows, she needs time and he was willing to give her so she could easily open with him without any fear... 

Not having words to describe how much she just adore the place, Riddhima put her other hand over their joint hands making Armaan just blink his eyes letting her know that he is very well understanding her unspoken words... Riddhima couldn't do anything more than giving her heartwarming smile...
'Dinner kare...???' Armaan asked as the silent were getting to much to handle... 
'Yeah, I m hungry...' Riddhima said, suddenly feeling how hungry she is with her tummy making noises...
'Let me serve...' Armaan said removing the cover of the dishes...
'Armaan, main le lungi...' Riddhima said...
'Please...???' Armaan said pleading to let him pamper her...

Riddhima just smile and keep admiring him as he serve them and soon they were silently eating after praising the delicious foods... Armaan was glad Riddhima love it as he didn't know her likes so he was nervous until Riddhima happily accept how good the foods were as she relish it like a kid who got her favorite candy... 

After they finished their dinner, Armaan stood up making Riddhima confused as she was hoping to spend some more time with him... Armaan move to her side and forward his hand, Riddhima didn't want to leave so early but still gave her hand as Armaan lead her away from the place... 

Seeing Riddhima face color leaving, Armaan just pull her closed to him making her look towards him... Riddhima gave him a small smile and Armaan knew she wasn't happy that they were leaving so soon... He didn't like to see her sad so thought of letting her know that they aren't leaving any sooner... 
'Tum aise acchi nehi lagti, dukhi mat ho... We aren't going back yet...' Armaan said...
'Phir hum waha kyun nehi beite...???' Riddhima asked...
'Hmm dinner toh hogayi na, I have another surprise...' Armaan said...
'Surprise...???' Riddhima asked...

Armaan smile and ask her to look ahead as she was looking towards him all this while... Being excited hearing the word 'surprise' Riddhima look ahead to be left shocked again for the second time in one night... Actually Armaan had been giving shocked from morning...

First making Rakesh accept not to let any other customer near her, than the dress and dinner date which was arrange beyond her imagination... She never thought, she would get to live this moment of life ever after what she had to go through after her parents death... 

Today, Armaan make her believe that she has every right to dream.. Build a dream that she wants to live and share with the person, who would love her unconditionally, who she would love after her parents and sister... Think to live a normal life, like a normal girl and it was all because of Armaan that once again her heart started to beat which has stop beating years ago... 

Riddhima truly felt like she was living a dream, with Armaan as he was her dream guy... Who was not leaving a chance to make her feel like the most wanted and luckiest girl... She was scared to dream but now, she was living those dreams once she build without thinking what life has store for her... 

Every girl would wish her partner to do such things for her and here was Armaan, when she hasn't confess her love still he has manage to start to impress her just to make her believe that he is the one for her that god has send to this world... 

Riddhima couldn't help but thank god in her heart for sending Armaan in her life, her eyes fixed on the decoration, once again she try to believe this wasn't just a dream... The place was decorate with fairy lights and Chinese lanterns under the tree, with a round swing, giving much needed light to the place... 


DECORATION FOR SURPRISE





As usual Riddhima was again lost so Armaan took her close to the place... He sit on the swing and pull Riddhima making her sit almost over him making her gasp as his hands move around her waist... Riddhima try to move but Armaan hold her without letting her create distance between them... 

He move his one hand on her hand which was on his chest, holding it there as it was resting near his heart... Riddhima couldn't move her eyes from his face as she had try not to meet his gaze whole night but with his every arrangement, she has totally lost her heart to him... 
'Riddhima, main jaanti hun tumhe waqt chahiyeh yeh sab accept karne koh... All of sudden, main aakar yeh sab kar raha hun tumhare liye, humhare liye toh tumhe accept karne ke liye shayad bohot zyada waqt chahiyeh hoga... Believe me, I wouldn't force you for anything... Not to even confess me your feelings because I know, you love me as much as I love you...' Armaan said softly caring her hand which was in his hold... 
'Armaan, main...' Riddhima was shush by him... 
'I can totally understand Riddhima, tumne yeh sab sapna dekhna chod diya... Jaise tumhare zindagi guzar rahi hai, tumhe yeh ijazat nehi diya tum sapne dekhe... Main phir ek baar kahunga tumse, mujhpe barosa karo... Main puri koshish karunga, tumhari yeh barosa kabhi na todu... Aur jaise maine tumhe promise kiya, main tumhe azaad karke rahunga Rakesh se... Iss zindagi se, jo kabhi koi ladki deserve nehi karte, tum toh bilkul nehi...' Armaan said...
'Thank you,...' Riddhima whisper...
'Nehi Riddhima, main yeh sirf tumhare liye nehi kar raha hun... Its for me, for us so we would live a happy and carefree future ahead with each other... I don't want you to hold yourself from building new dreams, which you want to share with your life partner... Bohot zyada waqt hai humhare paas abhi, aur main puri koshish karunga yeh jo bhi waqt hai, hum ek ek moment ekdusre ke saath khushi khushi enjoy kare...' Armaan said... 
'Armaan, meri yeh darr tab tak khatam nehi hogi jab tak main Rakesh ke aas paas hun... Aur jo aapne mere liye aaj kiya, main tohda toh sahi, barosa karne laga hun aap pe... Phir bhi ek darr hai, meri yeh past kabhi mera peecha nehi chodenge...' Riddhima said...
'I know Riddhima, chodna bhi nehi chahiyeh kyunki aaj jaise bhi haalat hai tumhari zindagi mein, uss wajahse hum mile... Aur yeh sach hum hamesha yaad rakhenge, kin haalon toh mein hum mile... Na uske aage kiya huva ya hote aaye hai, woh hum abse yaad nehi karenge but jo aage hoga, woh kabhi nehi bhulenge...' Armaan said...
'I m sorry Armaan, mujhe waqt lagega yeh zindagi apna ne mein...' Riddhima said...
'Riddhima, maine kaha na... Tumhe jitna bhi waqt chahiyeh, tum le sakte ho... Main kabhi tumhe kissi bhi cheez ke liye force nehi karunga... Tumne mujhe yeh ek moka diya, mujhe apna pyar saabit karne ke liye, woh mere liye kaafi hai... Bas barosa karna mujhpe, main jo bhi karunga, tumhare liye karunga...' Armaan said...
'Itni din baad aaj mujhe bohot khushi huvi Armaan, aapne mere barosa jeetne ke liye jo step liya, chota sa hi sahi lekin mere liye bohot bada step tha woh... Aapne mere baare mein sochke, jo faisla humhare le liya, mere liye liya, it means a lot... Thank you...' Riddhima said...
'Nehi, please tum mujhe thanks mat bolo... Riddhima, main jo bhi kar raha hun, humhare pyar ke liye kar raha hun... Tum har baat ke liye mujhe thanks bolenge toh humhare pyar ka, mere pyar ka insult hoga... Bas mera saath dena, taaki main tumhe har mushkil se bacha sakun...' Armaan said...
'Jab tak aap mere saath hai, aise mujhe pyar karte rahe toh main chahkar bhi aapse dur nehi japaungi...' Riddhima said... 
'Aur main ab tumhe kabhi khudse dur jaane bhi nehi dunga, mujhe is baat se koi fark nehi padta tumhare zindagi mein ab tak kiya hote aa rahi ho... Log kiya kahe, kiya soche, usse mujhe koi lena dena nehi hai... Mujhe sirf tumhari saath ki zarurat hai, tumhari pyar ke jo tum apni darr se batane se hesitate ho rahe ho... Phir bhi, main isbaat ka izhar aage nehi karunga jab tak tum khud aakar mujhe nehi kehti tum mere liye kiya ehsaas karte ho...' Armaan said... 
'Itna pyar...???' Riddhima asked...
'Maine bhi kabhi nehi socha main iss hadd tak kissi se mohabbat karunga... Lekin dil pe kissi ka zorr nehi chalta, aaj samjha maine... Kabhi socha nehi tha, mujhe kissi se pyar hoga woh bhi iss hadd tak... Jaise bhi humne mile, humhare beech jo bhi huva, mujhe tab afsos nehi huva na aaj unbaaton koh lekar afsos hai... Shayad main tab bhi tumhe dekh kar apna dil haar beita tha, issiliye jo humhare dharmiya huva mujhe woh galat nehi laga...' Armaan said...
'Lekin kiya aapke parents mujhe apna enge...???' Riddhima asked... 
'Jaise maine kaha, mujhe kissi baat se koi fark nehi padta lekin main itna keh sakta hun dad zarur tumhe accept karenge kyunki woh mujhse bohot pyar karta hai... Aur rahi baat mom ki, mujhe uske manzuri chahiyeh bhi nehi... Jo aurat apni shaadi ke liye faithful nehi reh sakte, usse kissi ki zindagi ke faisla lene ka koi hak nehi hai...' Armaan said...
'Armaan, woh aapke ma...' Riddhima said but was cut by him... 
'Main iss baat se inkaar nehi kar rahi hun woh mere ma hai... Lekin main usse apne liye faisla lene ke ijazat ab nehi dunga... Yeh jaanne ke baad, woh mere dad se bewafai kar raha hai, main usse koi hak nehi dunga...' Armaan said... 
'Lekin Armaan...' Riddhima said, trying to make him understand but he cut her again...
'Sshh, mujhe unke baare mein kuch nehi kehna... Bas tum itna yaad rakho, main tumse bepannah ishq karta hun aur kissi bhi haalat mein, main tumhe Rakesh se bachaunga... Tum ab yeh jo zindagi tum jee rahi ho, usse peecha chodke mere saath aage bado mere haath thaam ke... Aur main vaada karta tumse, main tumhari haath kabhi nehi chodunga, apni aahiri saans tak...' Armaan said moving his hand on her cheek... 

Riddhima was lost in him as he softly care her cheek, his other hand still on her waist holding her close to him... Both were laying on the swing as they stare at each other eyes which shows pure love and building a dream to share with each other... 

Armaan move his thumb on her lower lips making her part it, still their eyes locked as their breath started to get heavy and heartbeat raise... Armaan move his hand on her nape, placing his lips on her, kissing her softly... Their eyes got closed, feeling the new emotions developing in their hearts... 

Riddhima hand was resting on Armaan chest, they kiss slowly with Armaan one hand holding her nape to keep her in position while his other hand still around her waist... Neither of them deep the kiss as it was just a promising kiss to each other... 

Armaan was the first one to break it and kiss her forehead, before moving out to look at her face... Riddhima has her eyes closed as she enjoy his love, his touch as it gave a feeling which she hasn't experience till date having any guy so closed to her... 

Armaan admire how beautiful she look and he realized he hasn't compliment her till now... The night has come to an end and he knows, it was time for them to leave... Armaan don't want Rakesh to doubt on them which might lead him to harm Riddhima... 
'Beautiful...' Armaan whisper as he slowly care her cheek... 

Riddhima open her eyes and look in his eyes to see truth in it, she smile as her cheeks turn its color... It was the first time, a guy compliment for her beauty... At the moment, she just wanted to be in his arms where she felt secure and protective... So without saying another word, she hugs him, resting her head on his chest... 

Armaan let her find the comfort in his arms, he kept caring her back, arms and kissing her forehead every than and now to make her believe that it was the starting of their beautiful life together... Whatever he had done for her today, he would do much more than that in coming days of their life together... 

They didn't need anything else just to feel each other present, their love was enough them to spend rest of the evening being each other embrace to hear their heart beating as it was playing a new rhythm, defining the pure love which only were hear by them, no other person...

'Tumne bhulaya Rakesh...???' Riddhima asked, banging in his cabin... 
'Aao Riddhima, haan mujhe kuch baat karna tha...' Rakesh said as he was holding something, looking at it... 
'Kiya baat hai...???' Riddhima asked, sitting in front of him... 
'Pata hai yeh kiya hai...???' Rakesh asked showing her the paper...

Riddhima rise her eyebrows waiting him to reveal what it was, Rakesh just smirk seeing Riddhima expression and kept it on middle of the table so she could see it... Riddhima move forward, to have a closed look at it and was surprise to see Armaan sign on it... 

It was a check which was sign by Armaan, Riddhima was confused to see it and her eyes move on the amount filled in it making her wonder why would Armaan give such a big amount to Rakesh... When Riddhima continue to stare at the check, Rakesh again took it making Riddhima look at him... 

Armaan had left late last night when she was sleeping because when she wake up, she was alone neatly cover with the sheet on her bare body... She felt sad that Armaan didn't wake her but let it go knowing he can't stay whole night as he is her customer... 

Riddhima was expecting a call or at least a MSG from him but than she realized that Armaan doesn't know her number and neither she know anything about him other than his name and he belongs to a rich family... For a second Riddhima felt sad that thinking Armaan will not come back but her heart ask her to believe him for once... 
'Tumne apni jaadu toh chala diya Mr. Mallik pe, issiliye woh chahta hai tum hamesha uske liye reserve rahe... Maanna padega Riddhima, tumhari aane se kaise mere business kaha se kaha poch gaye... Issiliye maine socha hai, tumhe toh kabhi jaane nehi dunga lekin jaisa Mr. Mallik chahte hai main waisa karne koh tayyar hun...' Rakesh said...
'Aur kiya chahta hai Mr. Mallik...' Riddhima asked...
'Yehi ki, tum hamesha uske liye available rahe... Aur aajse, tum sirf usko attend karenge... Kissi aur koh attend karne ki zarurat nehi hai...' Rakesh said... 

Riddhima was surprise with this because she never thought, Armaan would do such a thing for her in just a matter of few hours after he confess his love... He has already started to make things easier and better for her, she felt an unknown warm in her heart hearing it but didn't let it show on her face...

Riddhima didn't want Rakesh to doubt on them and she understood why Armaan must have put the offer in front of Rakesh so neither he doubt on them... After years, for the first time Riddhima got a hope that soon her life is going to change for a better future... 

She was lost thinking about Armaan, forgetting that Rakesh was sitting in front of her... Her heart was dancing with happiness and now she has started to trust Armaan that he would fulfilled his promise... How much truth was behind his words that he has started to act by taking this small step... 
'Waise main Armaan ke jhaga hota toh main bhi nehi chaahunga tumhe kissi aur ke saath share kare... Lekin paison ke zyada kissi koh zindagi mein aur kiya chahiyeh hota hai right...' Rakesh said keeping the check safely in his table drawer...

At the moment, Riddhima wish to answer him back but thought not to comment on any none sense he speak... So knowing why he has call her, Riddhima stood up to leave as it was getting difficult for her to control the small happiness Armaan just gave her by taking the step... 
'Anyways jo tum kahe, wohi toh mujhe karna hai... Mujhe koi problem nehi hai, hoge bhi toh usse fark nehi padega so it's better to let it go...' Riddhima said... 
'Accha hai tum ab yeh baat samajh gayi...'Rakesh said...
'Kissi ladki koh aasaan nehi hoti yeh sab karne, lekin zindagi ke aage kissi ka zor nehi chalta... Anyways if that's all, I m leaving...' Riddhima turn around to leave...
'Ek minute, that's not all Riddhima...' Rakesh said... 
'What now...???' Riddhima asked turning with a not interest look... 
'Mr. Mallik tumhe lene 8 bhaje aa raha hai, tayyar rehna...' Rakesh said... 
'Ok...' Riddhima said...

Without exchanging another word or giving a look towards Rakesh, Riddhima left... Rakesh didn't get any doubt because it was her way of showing attitude to him every time they meet or come in front of each other... So he didn't think about her behavior as he was too happy with the money he was earning having Riddhima in his business... 

Rakesh knows it would be very difficult to handle some customer because most the people would die to spend a  night with her but with the sudden change, he had to handle those people... He didn't want to go against Armaan for some reason because he had a feeling that Armaan might do what he says if he try to betray him...


RIDDHIMA'S ROOM 


As soon as she enter her room, she couldn't hold her smile which form on her lips... She was so happy at the moment, she never thought that she would get to see a day that she could actually be happy thinking someone would come and change her life like this... 

It was indeed a small step but it seems like a very huge one to her, the day she accepted it was her faith, she never thought that a day would come that a guy come and try to take her away to give her a better future with all the love a girl deserve in her life... 

True, she has stop believing and trusting guys from the day her own cousin put his hands on her body... The day, he has took the most precious gift that god has given to her which is only to be given to her soulmate or life partner but sadly, she lost it before she could even met him and know if he exists... 

After days, months and years, again she felt that she got her life back... With Armaan stepping in her life, making her believe that there is a guy, who could love her after knowing the truth of her life till date... Riddhima knows, it wouldn't be easily for him to believe and accept it, but he was brave enough to accept it so easily...

Without caring that what other would think if he ever introduce her as his life partner, his soulmate or his wife... Riddhima knows almost every single person in NYC is aware of her identity and there is no chance that people wouldn't talk about her character...

Still not thinking about any sort of thing because he just love her and that only matter to him, he was willing to do anything to take her away and start a new life with her, making new memories and let the past get fade without letting it affect their future... 

At the moment, she just want to hugs Armaan as tight as she could... Shower him with kisses which she never did for anyone... She was so happy, she felt that suddenly everything turn beautiful around... She didn't mind where she was at the moment because now she believe, Armaan would take her away from this hell to the heaven where she belongs... 

Being happy after years, Riddhima dance around as she remember about Armaan with a big smile on her lips and sparkles twinkling on her orbs... She remember those moment she spend with Armaan and the previous night specially as it did change her life... 

Finally she let herself fall on her bed, closing her eyes as she try to control her fast heartbeat and breath... Huge smile on her face as she was amaze with her own behavior because she never thought, she would be able to smile genuinely...

It was a big shocked when Armaan confess his feelings, her mind got numb and that was the reason that she wasn't able to believe those words Armaan express to her... She knows the way she reacted, he didn't mind and he understood why she react like that... 

He had done just the way she request, she knows it wasn't a way to believe that he loves her but being in his arms, making her claim like never a guy had done before, it make her believe, he is the one... That is the reason, she decide to give him a chance, give them a chance... 

Remembering that Armaan would be coming to take her out, Riddhima open her eyes with jerk and started to search her phone to check the time... It was the beginning of the day and still hours are left till he come to take her out... 

It was the first time Armaan was going to take her out and she was excited... Getting to know that Armaan has take his first step to free her from Rakesh, now she couldn't wait to see what else Armaan would do for her to make her believe that how much he needs her in his life... 

Nothing matter how she end up in there with him and that make her amaze to see how can a guy be so fine about something like this... Sure her past wouldn't leave them easily but Armaan make her believe today, like any other girls, she still got the right to dream and make a beautiful future... 


EVENING


Some how Armaan manage to keep himself calm till the end of working hours, he had been having difficult to control himself as at the moment he just want to see Riddhima... He knows by now Rakesh must have inform Riddhima about him going to meet her at night... 

Armaan wondered if Rakesh would tell her any details about the deal they had seal between them or not... If not, he would make sure her aware of it because than if Rakesh try to betray him, he could easily get him behind the bar but somewhere, he knows Rakesh wouldn't dare because if he did than not only his business, he will lost everything he has earn by now... 

Still Armaan wanted to see Riddhima expression and he knows she would be the happiest person at the moment... He just wish to see her once but he couldn't leave with meetings and presentation being schedule for the day and his father wasn't there to take over in his absent... 

So when the clock shows 5 pm, he quickly collect his belonging and left waving to his PA... She was surprise to see him leaving so early and seeing his smile, it amaze her to see him being so happy... Last few days she has seen how much worried and tense he was but seems like today, he got something very precious... 

Praying god to keep him happy, his PA also quickly went to his cabin to arrange things before leaving as she got to leave early, thanks to her boss... Not thinking what his PA must be thinking, Armaan make his way to home but stop near a shop as he had been thinking what he could do for his lady love...

He has already plan where he would be taking his lady and wishing everything to be perfect on their first outing which is their first date, Armaan got some necessary things before heading back to home once again... Thinking how Riddhima would react, soon he was in his home and getting ready for the night... 

By 7 55 pm, Armaan was outside the pub, waiting for Riddhima... He kept checking the watch but it seems that tonight even the time wasn't in his favor... It was running so late and he sit impatiently, tapping the car steer as he try to control his excitement but he has no control over him...

Finally his wait came to an end as he saw Riddhima coming out, as beautiful as ever in a simple orange sleeveless dress which has a deep neck... It ends up to her middle thigh, she wore a black high heels and just earrings as only jewelry... She has left her hair open, minimum make up as it wasn't necessary with that beautiful smile on her lips and sparkling eyes make her look out of the world... 


RIDDHIMA'S DRESS 





When Armaan eyes caught that beautiful smile on her lips, he couldn't help but let his smile turn huge letting the dimples take place on his cheeks... He couldn't help but admire the beauty and just sit like that, without blinking his eyes... 

Riddhima move towards his car, when finally she spot him waiting on the other side of the road... She couldn't help but smile widely seeing him, when she saw his lost expression, she make his way to the car... She felt her cheeks heat up changing its color with Armaan intense gaze... 

Armaan trace was broke hearing a car honk, he move out seeing Riddhima coming towards him... He still kept his eyes on her face as he stood out near the door closing it... Next moment Armaan was taken surprise by Riddhima as she hugs him as soon as she reach him... 

Armaan wasn't expecting to be welcome with a hug so was taken back but when Riddhima whisper a 'Thank you', Armaan understood it was because she was happy with the small step he has take to make her free... Armaan just move his hands on her back and move out from the hug, kissing her forehead... 
'Chale...' Armaan asked leading her to the passenger seat...

Riddhima smile seeing how gently he was treating her, he open the door for her and when she comfortably sit, closed it and next second he was back on driver seat... No one speak another word as Riddhima kept looking outside, admiring the beautiful night while Armaan take her to their destination for the night... 

After driving for few minutes, Armaan stop the car making Riddhima turn towards him... Armaan smile and took a bag from the back seat... Riddhima just kept staring at him as he kept it on her lap, moving closed to her putting her hair strand behind her ear so he could get a good view on her face...
'Armaan, yeh...???' Riddhima asked looking at the bag and back to him...

She gasp feeling Armaan so closed as she turn around and see his face closed to her, Armaan didn't leave the chance to move his knuckles sensually making Riddhima shiver... She felt her cheeks changing color, to control it she bite her lower lips and lower her eyes...

Armaan smile seeing her flush face and he felt warm in his heart to see how much their closeness and touch affect her... He couldn't stop caring her cheek as he admire the beauty, he has his dimple smile on his face all this time as he took his time to capture her imagine in his heart... 

When Armaan didn't stop and kept staring at her, Riddhima close her eyes to control her fast heartbeat... She hold the bag tight but couldn't move herself from the seat as it gives goosebumps her to feel love in his single touch and her heart warm up with happiness... 

Armaan was closely, observing her and when she didn't utter a word, he thought to cut the silent and as his eyes were getting desperate to see her in his chosen dress which he had got for her... Some where he knows she would deny but he just wish her to accept it... 
'Yeh maine tumhare liye gift laaya hun, I hope tumhe accha lage...' Armaan said still his eyes on her face...
'Iski kiya zarurat...' Riddhima said looking towards him but was cut by him...
'Zarurat nehi tha lekin mera dil kiya toh maine socha, jisse mein mohabbat karta hun uske liye itna toh kar sakta hun... Main chahta hun tum aaj yeh peheno, mere liye please...' Armaan said as he capture her eyes with his orbs locking it in a eye-lock... 

Riddhima couldn't deny at the moment her eyes met with his which shows unconditional love in it for her... For the first time in past few hours, Riddhima felt so glad that she agree to him give a chance, them a chance to let him filled her life with happiness and love... 

She was so overwhelmed that she open her mouth to confess her feelings but stop before she could let any words out... Her mind over power her heart, making her control because it was just a matter of few hours and she have her whole life ahead and they have to go through god knows how many more tests before she get free from Rakesh...

Armaan wait for Riddhima to speak but when she stop and look down back at the bag, he felt happy... For a moment, he thought Riddhima was going to deny again but when she just hold herself, it make Armaan happy that she accept his first gift for her... 
'Tum mall mein jaakar change karlo, I will wait for you here...' Armaan said as they were outside mall... 
'Ok...' Riddhima said quickly moving out from the car... 

Armaan sit back, looking at Riddhima as she left to change... Only he didn't know what was going in her mind and heart... He has his dimple smile as he wait for Riddhima and he couldn't help but imagine her in that dress which he has select for the first time in his life for a girl other than his mother... 

Meanwhile, Riddhima heart was banging excitedly... Also Riddhima scold it before being out of control which almost make her confess to Armaan... She has manage to hold herself the previous night without confessing those three words and her feelings but getting so much happiness in one day, she was about to spill it to Armaan...

She knows Armaan would wait till she accept him with whole heart, also he knows that she has very strong feelings for him but she was just scared to express it due to the life she had been living from few years... She was very glad that Armaan didn't force her to confess her feelings, he was happy with the fact that she was willing to give them a chance, him a chance to prove his pure love... 

As she could clearly feel his intense gaze until she move inside the mall, out from his sight, she took a deep breath to control her fast heartbeat... She move to the changing room as she scold herself for not keeping her feelings in control... 
'How could u even think of confessing him Riddhima, paagal mat bano... It's just a mare of few hours and u have a long way to go to get yourself free from Rakesh... Haan yeh baat sahi hai, Armaan has prove himself in less 24 hours that he mean whatever he said the previous night but... Itna apni hopes high mat karo, tum acche tarahse jaante ho na Rakesh koh... Tum uske liye sone ki murgi hai, woh kissi bhi haalat pe tujhe nehi chodenge... 
Rahi baat Armaan ka, usne trust toh jeet liya apne first step se... Lekin mujhe khud pe control karna chahiyeh, jis din woh mujhe puri tarah Rakesh se free kardenge, us din mein usse apni dil ki baat kahungi... Woh mujhse bepannah pyar karte hai toh, zarur meri confess ke liye inthizaar karenge... So for the time being, just enjoy this new phase of your life...' Riddhima mumble under her breath as she finally enter the changing room...

She took out the packet from the bag, making herself decide what she should do to control her feelings before letting it fully out in front of Armaan... Deciding to enjoy every moment with Armaan, Riddhima open the packet to see a beautiful dress...

She couldn't help but admire his choice and she felt over the moon to see first gift from the man, who loves her uncountable and she loves but unfortunately she can't confess to him... So thinking it would be better to give him the happiness he deserve for loving a girl like her, she quickly change thinking how he would react seeing her in that dress... 

Outside the mall, Armaan was eagerly waiting for Riddhima... She had been in for last fifteen minutes and he wonder why she was taking so much time just to change... Not being able to sit longer in the car, Armaan came out... He stood with his back resting on the door as he check his mobile and make a call to check if every arrangement were completed... 

His eyes were on the mall entrance but as the person asked how long they would take to come, he move his eyes to his wrist watch to check the time... It was that very moment he felt the breeze change around him, making his heartbeat fast... 

He felt her present with the breeze making him closed his eyes for a moment before open it, looking towards the entrance... Armaan felt his breath got stuck with his heart missing a beat as he saw Riddhima coming out, carrying the dress beautifully making the dress more gorgeous than it was when he first saw it in the shop... 

Riddhima eyes were on the ground as she didn't know how she was looking in that dress because it has been years that she haven't wear anything like this... From few years, she had been wearing those expose dresses which hide a little part of her body but today, Armaan hand got this beautiful dress for her which only expose her hands and back... 

She felt the change in atmosphere suddenly as she step out, she saw Armaan looking at his watch but before he look towards her, she couldn't help but drop her gaze back on the ground as she slowly make her way towards him and the moment she felt his gaze, her heart started to bang on her chest once again... 

While Riddhima was trying her best to keep her heart in control, Armaan wasn't behind as he lost his heart to this particular girl once again... His eyes didn't obey and kept focus on her as it move from head to toe as he capture her imagine in his heart... 

The dress were just perfect for her and he was amaze to see how it fit for her so well as if it was just for her... It was a full length red sleeveless and backless dress as it has a exposing back... Dress were simple without any design just strips but it was most beautiful one for Armaan so far because his lady love was carrying it so gracefully... 


RIDDHIMA'S DRESS





Very well knowing Armaan gaze were on her, Riddhima look at him to see his dreamy dimple smile with love visible in his eyes... She couldn't help but blush seeing how he was looking at her as it was the first time in years that someone look her with so much emotions, no lust... 

She felt her heart dropping back to normal rate as she felt warm and happy to have someone who admire her beauty with love, not lust... She never thought, she would get to live a day until Armaan enter and he has prove that still there are people out in the world, who could love a girl the way they deserve to be... 

Tears form in her eyes, seeing him admiring her beauty feeling overwhelm to have someone who loves her so deary... Armaan was too lost in her to see her expression but when his eyes finally move back to her face, he was surprise to see those tears in her beautiful orbs...
'Hey, what happen...???' Armaan asked moving closed to her... 

Riddhima shake her head from side to side as she try to control her tears without letting it fall but the moment Armaan hands move on her bare arms, rubbing it softly to comfort her, she couldn't hold it longer as it started to fall on her cheeks freely...
'Hey my love, u can tell me anything... What happen hmm...???' Armaan asked as she stood with her head low... 

Riddhima couldn't control herself longer and just move close to him, hiding her face on his neck... She did try her best not to let more tears fall but it kept falling without any stop... Armaan slowly move his palm on her bare back, sending shiver in their bodies feeling the warm... 

Riddhima feel better with Armaan touch and she just didn't try to stop her tears as it was making her feel better to let it out in front of him knowing he would be there to comfort her whenever she need someone to pour out her heart, be it her silent or words... 

Letting her stay like that for sometimes, Armaan pull away and hold her face... Riddhima still didn't look towards him as he wipes her tears, Armaan understood what she must be feeling at the moment because whatever happening in her life with him by her side, it was a whole new chapter to her... 

She has stop building any dream with any guy, her dream guy... She wasn't expecting this sudden change and Armaan was willing to wait until she accept this reality in her life because it's a huge change after the life she had been living from last few years... 

So to make her feel love and only love without a single lust between them, Armaan just sucks those tears which was still continuously falling from her eyes... Riddhima let her eyelash closed feeling Armaan warm lips touching her cheeks, drinking the unwanted water leaking from her eyes... 

Neither of them speak a word because their emotions were pouring out through their action, after sucking the tears, Armaan care her cheeks waiting for her to look towards him... Riddhima just stood like that, not having the gut to look at him thinking any time this dream might break... 

Armaan very well understood the trauma she was going through, he just kiss her forehead letting his lips linger on her skin for a little longer... That small kiss on forehead make Riddhima heart warm and it make a stop to hear tears as a part of her heart believe that she should slowly started to accept this change in her life... 

As they were getting late, without changing another word Armaan lead her to the passenger seat... Making her sit comfortably, taking the bag and kept it on back seat, soon Armaan took the driver seat and they were on their way to the final destination... 

Seeing Riddhima lost, Armaan hold her hand which was kept on her lap... Riddhima look at him as he blink his eyes as if saying to believe him, believe them that new chapter of her life has started and there was no chance of going or looking back...

After half an hour drive, Armaan stop the car and came out as Riddhima was lost thinking how all of sudden she got so lucky... First time in years, a guy was taking her out not to fulfilled his desire but to give some happy memorable moment to remember in future... 

Not realizing they had reached to their destination, Riddhima kept staring the dark sky until her thought were distract by Armaan... He open her side door, forwarding his hand as she look at him being clueless... She didn't realized when Armaan has stop the car and was now standing holding the door for her to get down... 

Also with his hand forward, to let her hold and his eyes shows that once she took it, he would never let it go... Riddhima couldn't help but let the smile on her lips as she hold his hand, carefully Armaan make her get down from the car, closed and lock it before they walk away... 

Riddhima was so lost, she didn't realized where they were unless she got to witness the beautiful sight in front of her... She was surprise to see, he has take her to one of the most beautiful place in the city... Brooklyn botanic garden, one of the most perfect place to spend a night with lover... 

Seeing her surprise expression, Armaan couldn't help but smile as he lead her forward, putting his arm around her waist... Riddhima look towards Armaan, to make sure if they were really there... Armaan nodded his head, giving his dimple smile which make Riddhima smile fully as she look ahead... 

Riddhima couldn't help but fall in love with this place as it was looking so beautiful at this time... They were walking towards the bridge, the lights were giving much needed light to the dark night... Riddhima was just busy admiring the view and Armaan admiring the girl in his arms to whom he has lost his heart... 


BROOKLYN BRIDGE





As they kept walking, neither of them speak a single word for minutes... Riddhima was too busy capturing the beautiful surrounding and Armaan busy capturing her priceless expression which shows a new glow in her face with a killing smile on her gorgeous lips... 

Soon they cross the bridge and Armaan lead her further inside the garden... They walk for another 15 minutes when Riddhima suddenly stop making Armaan come out from his staring section... He move to look ahead to see what make Riddhima stop, he smile as he look at her to see her shocked expression...

He couldn't help but thought to capture the moment so leaving her in that shocked state, he move a little ahead taking his mobile and before she realized what he was up to, Armaan capture the moment in his mobile saving it so he could look at the picture whenever he wants to admire his love in that pretty dress... 

When Riddhima kept staring without blinking her eyes, Armaan move by her side again putting his arm on her waist... It brings Riddhima out from her shocked and look at Armaan, to see how her each expression could make him fall over and over again in love with her...
'Like it...???' Armaan asked...
'Like...??? Are you kidding me Armaan...' Riddhima asked shaking her head...
'Means u love it...???' Armaan asked not being sure... 
'Of course, this is... So freaking amazing...' Riddhima said looking back to the place... 
'Anything for my love...' Armaan said, dropping a quick kiss on her temple... 

Riddhima just smile as she got back to admire the arrangement, it wasn't like a normal setting for a couple as she don't know how he has manage to arrange a table with bench which usually used for picnic with families and friends... 

In the middle of the greenly nature, with candles and Chinese lanterns of different sizes, fairy lights and also not to be ignore that there were rose plants just a hand distance... Table cover with cloths, dinner serve for two with candles and flowers vase to decorate the table... 


DECORATION FOR DINNER 





Seeing how lost Riddhima was, Armaan once again lead her and make her sit before taking the place in front of her... Still than when Riddhima didn't utter another word, Armaan couldn't help but chuckle to see how Riddhima was trying to make herself believe all this were real... 

Holding her hand across the table, Armaan got her attention as she admire the place... He felt so happy to see that look on her eyes, it seems like she got a little part of her dream complete but it was taking all her energy to accept it... Armaan knows, she needs time and he was willing to give her so she could easily open with him without any fear... 

Not having words to describe how much she just adore the place, Riddhima put her other hand over their joint hands making Armaan just blink his eyes letting her know that he is very well understanding her unspoken words... Riddhima couldn't do anything more than giving her heartwarming smile...
'Dinner kare...???' Armaan asked as the silent were getting to much to handle... 
'Yeah, I m hungry...' Riddhima said, suddenly feeling how hungry she is with her tummy making noises...
'Let me serve...' Armaan said removing the cover of the dishes...
'Armaan, main le lungi...' Riddhima said...
'Please...???' Armaan said pleading to let him pamper her...

Riddhima just smile and keep admiring him as he serve them and soon they were silently eating after praising the delicious foods... Armaan was glad Riddhima love it as he didn't know her likes so he was nervous until Riddhima happily accept how good the foods were as she relish it like a kid who got her favorite candy... 

After they finished their dinner, Armaan stood up making Riddhima confused as she was hoping to spend some more time with him... Armaan move to her side and forward his hand, Riddhima didn't want to leave so early but still gave her hand as Armaan lead her away from the place... 

Seeing Riddhima face color leaving, Armaan just pull her closed to him making her look towards him... Riddhima gave him a small smile and Armaan knew she wasn't happy that they were leaving so soon... He didn't like to see her sad so thought of letting her know that they aren't leaving any sooner... 
'Tum aise acchi nehi lagti, dukhi mat ho... We aren't going back yet...' Armaan said...
'Phir hum waha kyun nehi beite...???' Riddhima asked...
'Hmm dinner toh hogayi na, I have another surprise...' Armaan said...
'Surprise...???' Riddhima asked...

Armaan smile and ask her to look ahead as she was looking towards him all this while... Being excited hearing the word 'surprise' Riddhima look ahead to be left shocked again for the second time in one night... Actually Armaan had been giving shocked from morning...

First making Rakesh accept not to let any other customer near her, than the dress and dinner date which was arrange beyond her imagination... She never thought, she would get to live this moment of life ever after what she had to go through after her parents death... 

Today, Armaan make her believe that she has every right to dream.. Build a dream that she wants to live and share with the person, who would love her unconditionally, who she would love after her parents and sister... Think to live a normal life, like a normal girl and it was all because of Armaan that once again her heart started to beat which has stop beating years ago... 

Riddhima truly felt like she was living a dream, with Armaan as he was her dream guy... Who was not leaving a chance to make her feel like the most wanted and luckiest girl... She was scared to dream but now, she was living those dreams once she build without thinking what life has store for her... 

Every girl would wish her partner to do such things for her and here was Armaan, when she hasn't confess her love still he has manage to start to impress her just to make her believe that he is the one for her that god has send to this world... 

Riddhima couldn't help but thank god in her heart for sending Armaan in her life, her eyes fixed on the decoration, once again she try to believe this wasn't just a dream... The place was decorate with fairy lights and Chinese lanterns under the tree, with a round swing, giving much needed light to the place... 


DECORATION FOR SURPRISE





As usual Riddhima was again lost so Armaan took her close to the place... He sit on the swing and pull Riddhima making her sit almost over him making her gasp as his hands move around her waist... Riddhima try to move but Armaan hold her without letting her create distance between them... 

He move his one hand on her hand which was on his chest, holding it there as it was resting near his heart... Riddhima couldn't move her eyes from his face as she had try not to meet his gaze whole night but with his every arrangement, she has totally lost her heart to him... 
'Riddhima, main jaanti hun tumhe waqt chahiyeh yeh sab accept karne koh... All of sudden, main aakar yeh sab kar raha hun tumhare liye, humhare liye toh tumhe accept karne ke liye shayad bohot zyada waqt chahiyeh hoga... Believe me, I wouldn't force you for anything... Not to even confess me your feelings because I know, you love me as much as I love you...' Armaan said softly caring her hand which was in his hold... 
'Armaan, main...' Riddhima was shush by him... 
'I can totally understand Riddhima, tumne yeh sab sapna dekhna chod diya... Jaise tumhare zindagi guzar rahi hai, tumhe yeh ijazat nehi diya tum sapne dekhe... Main phir ek baar kahunga tumse, mujhpe barosa karo... Main puri koshish karunga, tumhari yeh barosa kabhi na todu... Aur jaise maine tumhe promise kiya, main tumhe azaad karke rahunga Rakesh se... Iss zindagi se, jo kabhi koi ladki deserve nehi karte, tum toh bilkul nehi...' Armaan said...
'Thank you,...' Riddhima whisper...
'Nehi Riddhima, main yeh sirf tumhare liye nehi kar raha hun... Its for me, for us so we would live a happy and carefree future ahead with each other... I don't want you to hold yourself from building new dreams, which you want to share with your life partner... Bohot zyada waqt hai humhare paas abhi, aur main puri koshish karunga yeh jo bhi waqt hai, hum ek ek moment ekdusre ke saath khushi khushi enjoy kare...' Armaan said... 
'Armaan, meri yeh darr tab tak khatam nehi hogi jab tak main Rakesh ke aas paas hun... Aur jo aapne mere liye aaj kiya, main tohda toh sahi, barosa karne laga hun aap pe... Phir bhi ek darr hai, meri yeh past kabhi mera peecha nehi chodenge...' Riddhima said...
'I know Riddhima, chodna bhi nehi chahiyeh kyunki aaj jaise bhi haalat hai tumhari zindagi mein, uss wajahse hum mile... Aur yeh sach hum hamesha yaad rakhenge, kin haalon toh mein hum mile... Na uske aage kiya huva ya hote aaye hai, woh hum abse yaad nehi karenge but jo aage hoga, woh kabhi nehi bhulenge...' Armaan said...
'I m sorry Armaan, mujhe waqt lagega yeh zindagi apna ne mein...' Riddhima said...
'Riddhima, maine kaha na... Tumhe jitna bhi waqt chahiyeh, tum le sakte ho... Main kabhi tumhe kissi bhi cheez ke liye force nehi karunga... Tumne mujhe yeh ek moka diya, mujhe apna pyar saabit karne ke liye, woh mere liye kaafi hai... Bas barosa karna mujhpe, main jo bhi karunga, tumhare liye karunga...' Armaan said...
'Itni din baad aaj mujhe bohot khushi huvi Armaan, aapne mere barosa jeetne ke liye jo step liya, chota sa hi sahi lekin mere liye bohot bada step tha woh... Aapne mere baare mein sochke, jo faisla humhare le liya, mere liye liya, it means a lot... Thank you...' Riddhima said...
'Nehi, please tum mujhe thanks mat bolo... Riddhima, main jo bhi kar raha hun, humhare pyar ke liye kar raha hun... Tum har baat ke liye mujhe thanks bolenge toh humhare pyar ka, mere pyar ka insult hoga... Bas mera saath dena, taaki main tumhe har mushkil se bacha sakun...' Armaan said...
'Jab tak aap mere saath hai, aise mujhe pyar karte rahe toh main chahkar bhi aapse dur nehi japaungi...' Riddhima said... 
'Aur main ab tumhe kabhi khudse dur jaane bhi nehi dunga, mujhe is baat se koi fark nehi padta tumhare zindagi mein ab tak kiya hote aa rahi ho... Log kiya kahe, kiya soche, usse mujhe koi lena dena nehi hai... Mujhe sirf tumhari saath ki zarurat hai, tumhari pyar ke jo tum apni darr se batane se hesitate ho rahe ho... Phir bhi, main isbaat ka izhar aage nehi karunga jab tak tum khud aakar mujhe nehi kehti tum mere liye kiya ehsaas karte ho...' Armaan said... 
'Itna pyar...???' Riddhima asked...
'Maine bhi kabhi nehi socha main iss hadd tak kissi se mohabbat karunga... Lekin dil pe kissi ka zorr nehi chalta, aaj samjha maine... Kabhi socha nehi tha, mujhe kissi se pyar hoga woh bhi iss hadd tak... Jaise bhi humne mile, humhare beech jo bhi huva, mujhe tab afsos nehi huva na aaj unbaaton koh lekar afsos hai... Shayad main tab bhi tumhe dekh kar apna dil haar beita tha, issiliye jo humhare dharmiya huva mujhe woh galat nehi laga...' Armaan said...
'Lekin kiya aapke parents mujhe apna enge...???' Riddhima asked... 
'Jaise maine kaha, mujhe kissi baat se koi fark nehi padta lekin main itna keh sakta hun dad zarur tumhe accept karenge kyunki woh mujhse bohot pyar karta hai... Aur rahi baat mom ki, mujhe uske manzuri chahiyeh bhi nehi... Jo aurat apni shaadi ke liye faithful nehi reh sakte, usse kissi ki zindagi ke faisla lene ka koi hak nehi hai...' Armaan said...
'Armaan, woh aapke ma...' Riddhima said but was cut by him... 
'Main iss baat se inkaar nehi kar rahi hun woh mere ma hai... Lekin main usse apne liye faisla lene ke ijazat ab nehi dunga... Yeh jaanne ke baad, woh mere dad se bewafai kar raha hai, main usse koi hak nehi dunga...' Armaan said... 
'Lekin Armaan...' Riddhima said, trying to make him understand but he cut her again...
'Sshh, mujhe unke baare mein kuch nehi kehna... Bas tum itna yaad rakho, main tumse bepannah ishq karta hun aur kissi bhi haalat mein, main tumhe Rakesh se bachaunga... Tum ab yeh jo zindagi tum jee rahi ho, usse peecha chodke mere saath aage bado mere haath thaam ke... Aur main vaada karta tumse, main tumhari haath kabhi nehi chodunga, apni aahiri saans tak...' Armaan said moving his hand on her cheek... 

Riddhima was lost in him as he softly care her cheek, his other hand still on her waist holding her close to him... Both were laying on the swing as they stare at each other eyes which shows pure love and building a dream to share with each other... 

Armaan move his thumb on her lower lips making her part it, still their eyes locked as their breath started to get heavy and heartbeat raise... Armaan move his hand on her nape, placing his lips on her, kissing her softly... Their eyes got closed, feeling the new emotions developing in their hearts... 

Riddhima hand was resting on Armaan chest, they kiss slowly with Armaan one hand holding her nape to keep her in position while his other hand still around her waist... Neither of them deep the kiss as it was just a promising kiss to each other... 

Armaan was the first one to break it and kiss her forehead, before moving out to look at her face... Riddhima has her eyes closed as she enjoy his love, his touch as it gave a feeling which she hasn't experience till date having any guy so closed to her... 

Armaan admire how beautiful she look and he realized he hasn't compliment her till now... The night has come to an end and he knows, it was time for them to leave... Armaan don't want Rakesh to doubt on them which might lead him to harm Riddhima... 
'Beautiful...' Armaan whisper as he slowly care her cheek... 

Riddhima open her eyes and look in his eyes to see truth in it, she smile as her cheeks turn its color... It was the first time, a guy compliment for her beauty... At the moment, she just wanted to be in his arms where she felt secure and protective... So without saying another word, she hugs him, resting her head on his chest... 

Armaan let her find the comfort in his arms, he kept caring her back, arms and kissing her forehead every than and now to make her believe that it was the starting of their beautiful life together... Whatever he had done for her today, he would do much more than that in coming days of their life together... 

They didn't need anything else just to feel each other present, their love was enough them to spend rest of the evening being each other embrace to hear their heart beating as it was playing a new rhythm, defining the pure love which only were hear by them, no other person...
