She gazed outside the window.. she smilingly observed the husky clouds amidst wich the plane passed.. she always loved it.. it made her feel special.. she smiled and turned her face towards him.. who was peacefully sleeping wid his mouth open .. she then realized he had placed his head on her shoulders.. a sudden self consciousness went thru her nerves.. she delicately placed her palms on his cheeks who was still sleeping peacefully.. she gently stroked it.. she dint know why she was caring so much for him at the first place.. she smiled again.. seeing him.. and den her gaze moved towards his open mouth.. she left a light giggle and lifted his chin up a lil so as to close his mouth.. the moment she left her hand his mouth again left hanging.. she smiled wide at his innocence..
'he is still the same..' she recalled..
Once wen they wer kids, she and Sharon had a sleepover in Singhania mansion.. her only weird habbit for even today she gets embarrassed was waking up middle at nite and storming the kitchen.. she wud be immensely hungry all of a sudden at midnite and wud literally storm the kitchen finding something for her.. it was quite frequent in her childhood but even today she wasnt changed..she did now or then..
That particular sleepover at his house.. thinking of wich even today her cheeks flushed.. she was a kid.. a naughty mischievous kid.. and Reyaansh was her partner in crime.. while Sharon was a soft timid yet arrogant.. and swayam was a sweetheart then and even now..
She placed her head on the window pane and drifted of to the childhood memories.. staring at him who was sleeping peacefully and comfortable taking the support of her delicate soft shoulders..
Flashback : it was exactly 11:40pm finally she gave up and ran to the kitchen.. was she lucky or everyone wer extra sleepy tat nite ? no one woke up even after there was a storm up in kitchen.. since it wasn't her own house she barely knew wer things are..! she rushed into the side racks.. threw all the huge shaped boxes wich stored numerous items.. she then took over the bottom racks. Wer she cud only find vessels and dinning sets.. she almost changed the shape of whole kitchen!!!
Finally her gaze struck on the refrigerator..! leaving a relief sigh and started her search.. she kept checking out every available dish in fridge checking its taste.. eating a bit .. keeping it back and few throwing out to unknown direction.. finally she found a huge icecream can .. she grinned wide .. and like a hungry bird stared at her prey..
She took over the huge can and tried to open it wen a voice harshed on her ears 'STATUEEE'
She froze .. she shivered.. almost got a mini heart attack..
Wid corner of her eyes she slowly peeped at the person who frozed her.. it was the great Reyaansh himself.. first she left a sigh thanking god it was only him and very next instant she cursed her stars because it was HIM!!!
He entered the kitchen and inspected the place and asked very innocently wid a soft voice 'so u invaded my poor kitchen ??' he questioned wid his innocent voice raising his eyes lil high wid a sigh in face..
She dint reply infact dint move..! after all she was in 'statue'
He came near her gazing at her head to toe as if she was a terrorist' he turned around her making a complete whole circle around her.. .. she rolled her eyes in his direction.. her hands stood half way in air.. her mouth half opened .. she was dieing for a release command..
He stood infront of her after checking her out.. she started shooting daggers at him.. he looked her yet again wid innocent face and burst into fits of laughter.. she looked at him wid anger filled face.. he gave the release command finally.. she left a big sigh and glanced at the kitchen once and then looking at the mess she too joined wid him.. laughing even harder..
The next moment he had already started teasing her and blackmailing tat he wud complain..
She tried to request but she cudnt resist his attitude any longer.. she too gave it back in his way.. he was at the entrance of the kitchen decided to call anyone at sight for the mess in the kitchen..
She slowly came behind him and whispered in his ears.. 'agar kisi ko bataya toh mei kal puri class mei batadoongi ki tum muh kholke sote ho!!' now it was her turn to smirk and leave him numb.. *ouch* someone's ego is hurt..!
He was confused nd feared' she went a lil forward and said 'pure gar ko tum bulaoge ya mei bulao' AAAUUUN..' she just opened the mouth to call out that he placed his palms on her mouth and asked her to shut.. he promised he wudnt tell to anyone..
And it was tat day they promised each other they wud keep their secret hidden from anyone!! Fr tat matter..
Looking at the mess kria startled.. and it was about to b 12 am.. rey too was worried he looked at her perplexed..
They both thought for a while.. when they heard Sharon ( Sharon kria and rey swayam tat nite slept in same room.. bed one above the other.. there wer 2 beds in a room..tats totally 4 ( kid's ) beds..)
Sharon and swayam came out of the room.. and simultaneously Priya ( rey's mom also came climbing down the stairs ) both looked at each othr.. then at the kitchen.. then at rey's mom and den at swaron.. finaly dono ki dimaag ki batti jali.. both looked at each other and winked..
They took the icecream can and ran off towards the other end of the hall hiding behind the sofa..
Finally swaron reached the kitchen.. 'sharon u wait here.. il get water for u..'
'okay swayam..' she nodded in consent and went inside the kitchen.. it was dim..
Swayam sensed sumthn wrong..
Sharon moved near the kitchen platform.. she leaned on the platform.. as a co-incidence the FLOUR JAR above her head fell off the messed rack and all flour on her head..
Meanwhile swayam went near the fridge open the door and held the water bottle out.. as he looked to his right and left he found all eatables dropped down on the floor he bent to pick up..
And here Sharon was messed wid flour.. and she screamed..
Swayam too screamed at the sudden outburst.. priya reached the kitchen.. and onn the lights hearing the screams..
Meanwhile rey and kria ran to their rooms in tip toe.. and slept on their beds hiding behind their blankets.. rey hid the icecream can under his pillow.. kria winked at him and turned other side..
Priya got a mini heart attack seeing the sight.. and the two troubleshooter ( atleast tats what she thout ).. she was first angry but seeing Sharon cry and swayam frown she fell for their innocence she cleaned up sharon's mess and assured swayam..
'aunty meine kuch nhi kia ..' Sharon said glancing the messed up kitchen and swayam to agreed wid her.. now this caught priya..
tat they weren't admitting their mistakes..
'yeh galat hai.. khud galti karo aur usse admit na karo!!..'
'but mama..' 'but aunty..' both started to defend themselves priya cut off and ordered them not to create this mess again..! she also asked them tat 2mrw they wud help her whole day instead of playing wid frenz.. poor swaron they had to agree left wid no choice.. like obediently they agreed and went to the room.. priya followed them.. and also glared at them saying they wudnt do such mistakes again.. meanwhile rey and kria chuckled under deir breaths..
Priya looked at rey and kris sleeping quietly 'deko rey aur kria ko deko! Kaise quietly so rhe hai! tumdono toh kitchen kya halat banake rakdi! Y cant u be like dem ?? look them so innocent!! Accha now go to sleep..!!'
Swaron thout in mind 'lekin jab hum bahar jaa rhe the tho yeh dono bed pe nhi the!! Ab kaha se agaye ??'
Well who wud answer their questions ? poor souls drifted off to sleep.. after few mins when kriyaansh assured tat swaron slept.. they took icecream can out and reached terrace.. they sat on roof top and had their icecream.. laughing hard..
An after sumtime , swaron stood right before them wid hands on their hips.. rey kria looked at each other nd frowned..
And next moment all started laughing hard and kriyaansh narrated the whole story to them.. and both swaron and kriyaansh enjoyed the huge can full of icecream tat nite.. they sat chatted for long time and went to sleep wen it was dawn..
It was one memorable nite for her.. infact she had saved all those memories in her heart and mind as they wer really precious for her..
-flashback over
She laughed.. rey slightly opend his eyes seeing kria laugh soo hard without any reason.. he looked here and there made his vision proper.. he soon realised where he was sleeping all while.. he felt a lil embarrassed but thn again he looked at her who was laughing non-stop.. he looked around to see if any eyes wer on them.. finally he took a long breath and asked 'kria ?? kya hua ? tum itna hass kyu rhi ho ??'
She stopped suddenly and looked at him.. their eyes met and for few seconds they shared a LLHH..
Kria broke the eye lock wid another fits of laughter.. rey raised his eye brows..
'tumei humari promise yaad hai ??'
Rey was confused at her question.. 'kounsa promise ??' he asked still perplexed..
She came near his ears and wispered 'humara top secrets..!!' she winked at him..
He blinked few times and finally registered what she was talking about.. and then he looked at her..
'yaad hai kaise humne swayam aur Sharon ko fasaya tha uss raat ???' and again she burst out laughing.. finally rey recalled the whole incident and he too joined wid her..
After sumtime their flight landed..
'FINALLYYY HOMEEE!!!' kria squealed while rey was opening his seat belt.. he looked at her.. she closed the eyes and smiled wide..
As they reached out of the plane they excitedly went towards the arrival section.. peeping to find their family members.. rey went near the luggage counter while kria finally spotted her mom and dad followed by her in laws.. she excitedly jumped and went to hug dem.. when she was done greeting smriti asked 'where'e rey ??'
She looked around he wasn't there.. and then she recalled he went near luggage counter..
Before she cud answer rey came pulling the trolly of luggage.. he too hugged his parents and in laws..
'so beta honeymoon kaisa tha ??' gautum winked at rey.. rey was taken aback by his question.. rey looked at kria who refused to meet his gaze.. he then looked back at gautum and made a face of blush.. they smiled and agreed not to bug them more..
Rey looked around and asked 'dad where is swayam ?' 'and Sharon..?' kria added to his question looking around..
