Dipika parked the car outside the house itself, since she had to drive it again to leave Aryan at the airport…
As she hurried inside the house, she looked around and saw Vishal's mother standing up… Before she could open her mouth, Dipika shook her head with a pleading look on her face… Shaking her head Mrs. Malhotra marched to the guest room and shut the door… Hard enough!
Taken aback, Dipika wanted to follow her but knew this was not the time…
Hearing the sound Mrs. Gosh came out from the kitchen…
Mrs. Gosh: Aa gayi beta…
Dipika: Aryan kahan hai Ma? ❓
Mrs. Gosh: Upar hai beta… Thodi der pehle hi aaya…
Dipika was about to go up, when the guest room door opened and not looking out Mrs. Malhotra….
Mrs. Malhotra: (Clearing her throat) Khana leti jaana… Warna bina khake hi nikal jayega… Kya pata itni raat ko plane me khana mile ya naa mile…
Next moment the door closed again, but this time a little soft…. Dipika smiled looking at the closed door…😊
Mrs. Gosh: Gussa jitni bhi ho… Fikar bhi hai unhe…. Tu jaa beta, main khana upar laa deti hoon…
Dipika: Er nahi Ma… Main abhi leke jaati hoon…
Mrs. Gosh nodded and went inside the kitchen to prepare the food plate….
Carrying the plate Dipika went straight to their room… It was closed… Thinking she opened the door and saw that it was dark, the light from the outside the room lighting the area a little… He wasn't here… She set the plate on the table beside the bed and checked the rest of the room… He was not there, coming out she noticed Sri's room door open slightly….
Smiling she walked to the room and peeped in… As expected he was there, his head beside Sri's eyes closed… Sleeping?!?! 😳 What a wonderful sight…. She could stay there all the while watching them both… Together… Her dream coming true… ⭐️ But…
Walking as noiselessly as possible she went to them, bending down kissed Sri on the forehead and lightly shook him… Startled he woke up…
Aryan: Kya? Main… 🥱
Immediately she put a finger on his mouth… Indicating Sri, she caught his hand and walked him outside the room, closing the door silently behind them….
Aryan: (Squeezing his eyes) Can't believe I slept…
Dipika: At least itna to soye…
He looked at her…. Only looked… Smiling she led him to their room… Switching on the light and fan, she made him sit down… Taking the food plate, placed it in front of him and said…
Dipika: Have your food… Tab tak main tumhara packing kar deti hoon….
Saying she turned around to go when he caught her hand… Standing up he pulled her back lightly...
He looked around the room... This was decorated yesterday... Completely from top to bottom... And she was here in this very room... Awaiting him... Oh!!!!!! 😒
How could she do it?!?! From the time she had come there was smile on her face… No worry… No anger… No complaint…😕
Dipika: Aryan… Der ho rahi hai… Jaldi khao…
Aryan: Am I been punished? ❓
Dipika: (Surprised) Punished? Kis keliye?❓
Aryan: Maasi Maa bahut gussa thi.. Lekin tum aur Mama, you didn't ask a single question…
Dipika: (Nodding understanding) Sawaal to mujhe sirf ek hi poochna hai… Tumne Chennai jaana ka decision kab liya tha? Somewhere around 4'O clock in the evening?
Aryan: (Startled🤔) Kya? Shaam ko… (Thinking back) Haan hum Indra ke hostel me the tab, they said about the trip… Unke school me bhi us trip ke baare uske friends ne kuch kaha tha… Haan shayad kyun? 😊
Dipika smiling made him sit down and she too sat in front of him….
Dipika: Ab mujhe mere agitation ka kaaran pata chala…. Tumhara wahan upset hona mujh tak pahooncha… Decision asaani se le li, phir upset kyun the? Subah jo kuch maine kaha, vo yaad nahi tha?
Aryan: (Still surprised at how she felt his state, took her hands in his and held it… More for his comfort than hers) Yaad tha… Isliye decision aasaani le li… But again Dipika…
Dipika: Sshhh… Aryan… No more questions… No more answers…. Its getting late… Khaa lo aur fresh ho jaana…
Saying she took a piece of roti and dipping into the dhal, fed him… Still not convinced with his own actions, he ate silently… 😕
Within fifteen minutes, the packing done and eating done…
Dipika: (Keeping the last set of clothes in his bag) Aryan bas ise close kar do… Just five minutes, main fresh hoke aati hoon…
Within five minutes, she had changed her dress to casuals… Jean and top….
Dipika: (Putting the towel in the dirty clothes bag) Aryan chalein….
She turned around and staggered back… He was standing there as usual with a naughty look on his face…
Questioning him with a nod of her head she indicated the time in his watch…
Smiling he nodded, but instead of moving away wrapped his hand around her waist and pulled her closer… Very closer...
Dipika: Ar…
Silently he placed a finger on her lip… Slowly traced it on her lips… The tingling sensation, made her cheeks turn a bright red….
Aryan: Mera ransom abhi baaki hai!😉
Surprised she attempted to open her mouth but instead her hands found sliding around his shoulders gripping his hair for support, as his lips sealed hers….
Ecstasy spreading through her….
Countless times she might have encountered his kiss…. His touch… But this one kiss she would remember for her life time… First such kiss from her 'husband Aryan Khanna'…☺️
Husband… She could not get enough of that word…. And especially when the owner of that word was the man of her dreams!!!! ⭐️
After a long breathless journey, they parted…. Looking up at him she smiled and smoothed his cheek…
Dipika: Hume chalna chahiye!
Reluctantly he nodded….
