She had comeback from trip yesterday but his arab trip was still on and he would be back only after 7 days. She bought many gifts to her family ,anu and for him.All had opened them and loved it she was still waiting for his compliment on the gift she had bought.
As the ringtone rang three to four times, jai picked up

She blushed momentarily for "not that much"
" that means u were missing me... wow .Maria u have treat from me today .. my fianc is missing me" he spoke loudly on phone.
"Mr.Walia!!!" she exclaimed.

"main tho teek se hi baat kar raha hoon" he said sweetly on phone.

Jai listened patiently "but what about me"
"For u !!! ohh no , mujhe yaad hi na tha aapke liye main kuch nahin laye" she lied from tip of mouth.
"kya??" he was saddened
"haaa, actually my purse got empty" she lied from tip of mouth.
"bani not fair"
"hmm par main kya karoon abhi ..."
"it's okay I will take my gift when I get back ..."
"hmm let's see" she challenged
"aapko pata hain abhi mausam bahut badiya hain yahan, its drizzling and I m enjoying it with cup of hot tea... but u r cooped up in office with AC and laptop" she teased him lightly..
"hmm"
"I love the climate after rains, it's so cool the breeze, and enjoying it with hot pakodas and hot green chutney (spicy) or a cup of hot elaichi tea..woowowow"
"hmm u seem to love all hotttt ...u r in good mood.. What else do u like hot?" he asked

Haan hogaya.wat about u ?
Yup.
Bani wen have u decided about that?
About what she asked

She kept quiet hearing it. Marriage thing brought jitters in her .
Hmmm

AAp vapas aayenge toh hum iss par baat karenge she said
Jai was relieved. She didn't say straight no like she always used to .. he was counting time.
Jai came after the trip straight to Bani's house .He was missing her terribly and get a glimpse of her. It was early morning 4 am, nobody woke up. Bani's cell buzzed continuously lifting it she spoke
"kaun"
Bani me jai .open the door
Hmm okay .. she came out of sleep drowsily opening the door.
Good morning sweet heart he said bear hugging her.
She smiled Good morning. Aapke Train kab aaye?
Main train se nahin Flight se aaya hoon budhuu!
Haan vahi!She hit her brain.
Abhi
Hmm she said opening the door to make him enter the house and sit on sofa...
Main aapke liye paani laon?
Nahin mujhe ek cup coffee chahiye !
She made a face but went into kitchen to make one. She was still sleepy and as she lit the gas put the water to boil adding the ingredients making a hot cup she handed it to him.
Hmm its tasty! she looked at him as he grinned wide at her. She came and sat beside him now the only light in the room was the zero candle bulb.
Shall we go to terrace he asked; she nodded
They went and sat on the terrace floor both looking at each other not saying a word.
Bani yawned loudly .
Feeling sleepy he asked
Hmm she nodded
He patted his lap. She put her head on his lap and curled her limbs to foetal position. She closed her eyes innocently and slept .He was just staring at her .
After few minutes, he shook her
Bani what about me. I am also tired he said.
She opened her eyes groggily lifting her head and shifting on to the floor, she turned to left and extending her hand .Jai looked at her as she innocently pointed him to use her hand as pillow.
The two hours went by as sun shined over and birds chirped she woke up first to see him snuggled into her chest and his hands on her waist . He looked like a baby to her and she kissed his forehead ruffling his hair with her hand .He opened his eyes seeing her lovely face with smile.
Good morning she whispered
Good morning sweetheart ..
Bani beta... her mother called
Aap uthiye maa bularahe hain she said freeing herself from him. She walked to the steps. By the time she reached last step to ground she saw her mother coming up stairs.
Beta damaad babu kahan hain ?
Bani looked at her mother as she handed her the coffee cup.
Beta yeh lo damaad unko de dena aur fresh up hone kahna aur beta agli baar jab coffe banao toh cheeni dalna namak ke jagah
bani was shocked.
Kya??
Par beta aisa mazzak nahin karne chahiye
Maaa maine ... she was to reply but her mother left.
Bani took the cup to terrace and handed it to her making a sad face
"kya hua bani"
Maine jaan booj ke namak nahin milayee coffee main
Mujhe pata hain u were too sleepy to recognise sugar and salt.
Lekin aapne piya kyun and then said its tasty
Because it was tasty .. okay now no more questions...
Here come he patted seat next seat ,she sat down as he checked through his pocket to find his cell phone buzzing.
Jigyasa was asking when he had come and yet not in WM. He replied to it .
Maa ne kahan aapko fresh hone...
Haan bani lekin mujhe baat karne hain tumse..
Ji kya?
About ur decision
She kept mum, Bani pls kuch bolo
He shook her taking her left hand in his.
I am afraid of this marriage..
Kyun bani ...
She twirled her toes and spoke with head bowed.
I don't want to leave my home my parents..
Okay we will come back to ur parents. On weekends spend time here and rest in walia mansion. Agreed ?
Tony is there to take care.
Tony is there to take care
I don't know to clean house, clean utensils, wash clothes.

Tony is there... he said in routine..
u agreed now it's done!!! no repetition.
Anything else..now he was listening keenly and not losing his concentration.
He looked at himself and said I m normally dressed properly and women admire for my dress sense.
I know that but I m saying during night in bedroom..
Oh means bed time...
There won't be anything of that in between of us..
What ...
That....
What that bani....
Hmm Sex she whispered
What ?...wait a minute what did u say?
Bani I agreed to all ur demands but this is ultimate... which I cannot.. i will not accept ...
Then it is no...
Bani... please we will make a way okay... we will go slowly on this part... I will be patient with u ...I won't be pushing u ... we will make it together ...He said but he himself unsure if he would really be true to word...
Okay now is there anything left? He asked as he turned her to face.
He was agreeing to every nonsense that she said.. Now what was left?
Hmm okay I agree. she said
"Jay pls bring me down"
he brought her down as their bodies crushed into each other , he kissed on her forehead cupping her cheeks as Bani closed her eyes , he smiled looking at her angelic face.
They came down. He greeted his FIL and MIL and Daadi
Bani went in and came after few minutes all fresh from bath.Her soapy fragrance filled is nose as she came to him with another cup of coffee.
Beta tum bhi fresh up hojao ,nashta karte hain milke. Her father said
Bani beta ,damad babu ko kuch chahiye ho tho dedena.
He went inside and then was confused
"bani " he called out
Kya hua she asked
Voh soap dikh nahin raha.. he was in his vest and towel around his waist.
She came, to see him like that all shy she closed her eyes his image of the well built muscles and the hair on his chest was floating on her eyes.
Its there in that rack, she said I have put a new one over there. She pointed to the corner.
He took in the direction taking the soap and inhaling the rose fragrance.
Lux baby where is ur soap. I thought I would b lucky in using urs.
Ahh her eyes grew big in shock and embarrassment and then she shut her eyes and vanished.
Soon the marriage date was fixed and as the date came near Bani was nervous and sad that she no longer be Dixit and to leave her parents even though a part of her was waiting for a new chapter to begin in her life. Their marriage happened pompously after all its Jai Walia going to be married to Bani Dixit.
