Beautifully written ❤️

Hello everyone, first a sincere sorry for the long delay as I was held up with some other work but here I am. This is the last part but I have divided this into two for a better read and it'll mostly have everything from Raavi's pov. Dialogues in italics.. Enjoy reading..

Raavi

Everything was getting better. All of them were smiling, Raavi saw Shiva cutely putting his head on Suman's lap and smiled at that. He looked tired, obviously he didn't rest well, I felt bad see him that way. She slowly came out of the group hug and called Shiva to go to the room. He had his eyes closed and didn't utter a word. The whole family noticed and Suman caressed his hair and said him to rest. There was no response from his side, she went near him and shook him to realise he's unconscious. Gaumbi, Dev and Krish just picked him up and rushed him to the hospital. Raavi felt numb, she didn't like that silence of his, she tried waking him up but he didn't respond to it. She heard the rest of them speaking something but couldn't respond to them, she looked at an unconscious Shiva and her tears were flowing like a river. They finally reached the hospital after what felt like an eternity to Raavi.

The doctor had checked Shiva and suggested few scans due to his endless injuries in his back. She prayed for him, she wanted him to be fine. Around the evening, the doctor had finally confirmed that Shiva was safe but had a few internal injuries. He was advised to be admitted in the hospital for the next two days until his injuries recovered completely. Raavi thanked God, finally Chattan Pandya was safe, her happiness knew no bounds. The rest of the family knew Raavi wanted to be with Shiva ans left them alone, she entered the room and felt a tinge of pain seeing Shiva connected to the wires and saline. She silently sat beside him waiting for him to wake up. After an hour he finally opened his eyes and saw Raavi looking at him happily, a small smile appeared on his face. The rest of the family joined them and were relieved seeing him fit and fine. All of them took turns to speak to him and obviously, all of them had a happy Yaadon ke Baarat moment.

It was midnight, Shiva woke up after a nightmare seeing Raavi struggling to breathe. He was terrified but saw an innocent Raavi who dozed off sitting on the chair next to him, holding his hand, he gently held it, giving himself a much needed assurance that he'll always protect her..
_____________________________________________

4 years later

The whole Pandya family reached the haveli, all looked excited and happy, they were visiting the haveli after three long years. Everyone felt nostalgic, all the good and bad memories flushed in everyone's minds. All of them settled in their respective rooms. Raavi gave the complete responsibility to Shiva and walked around the haveli reliving a lot of memories.

That haveli marked the beginning of their relationship, she trusted that she could have a happy future with Shiva, when she first entered the haveli, she was a broken soul but when she left from there, she was the same old Raavi who she thought was gone. She was back to being herself..

She continued walking, the place had given her home, it gave her an assurance that Shiva was not going to leave her, she learnt how protective he was. The khandar incident, the pooja and the pag phere that followed, she knew that the new journey was worth trying. She was reminded on how things started becoming awkward after the khandar incident, Shiva became calmer and he surprisingly didn't pick up fights with her for a few days. He gave her the due credit of explaining things to him about Dhara leaving the house to the entire family, everyone were proud of her while she was proud of her bhoothnath, who gave up his big fat ego for her happiness.

Somnath brought the real Shiva and Raavi back. They behaved much like themselves in Somnath. They fought unnecessarily mostly to reduce the awkwardness between them but they were more careful with the words they used to each other, mostly funny but not hurtful.

Suddenly, someone came and hugged her from behind, she turned to see the cute little devil, Gauri, she smiled and picked her.

Raavi: Accha, toh Gauri ki neend ud gayi?

Gauri: Haan chachi!! Ab main bohot fresh hoon, she said cutely..

Raavi: Accha, toh aise hi walk pe chale? She asked to which Gauri nodded cutely.

Gauri's arrival was the beginning to Shiva and Raavi's friendship.
Gauri was a cute lil package of happiness, she was Gautam and Dhara's world. The family came to know Dhara was expecting, few days after they left the haveli. There was a small member joining their family and their happiness knew no bounds. Dhara had a lot of complications during her pregnancy but Gauri was worth it. She lit up so much happiness in the pandya household.

When Dhara and Gautam announced their pregnancy, all of them were naturally excited. They did everything for her, took care of her, made sure she's happy. Raavi being the over excited read more books on how to take care of Dhara, mostly she convinced Shiva to join him and he would gladly for Dhara. Shiva and Raavi never fought infront of Dhara but always had their banners inside their room, but they also had some meaningful conversations about business and the financial issues. 

After a few days Raavi realised how Shiva as a person is a hard nut to crack, it was not easy reading his emotions or even guess what he felt. It was making it more harder for Raavi as he got angry even if anything hurts him emotionally, somewhere she started getting tired of his unwanted hatred and anger. Sometimes a small fight turned nasty, she once even gave up and went back to her Maasi ma's house. Dhara and Gaumbi convinced her to come back which she gladly did.

She regained all her hopes after Shiva started behaving normally after she had returned. She slowly felt his hatred melt and their friendship just grew a little more stronger, they even laughed at each other's most stupidest jokes. She had called him for a get together where all her college friends were present. She wanted to take Shiva along as everyone came with their partners, he turned up late making her angry. But to her surprise she saw most girls running behind him, it angered her but then she saw a very well dressed and absolute handsome Shiva. She was floored. He looked so good that she stared at him continously. She heard a girl talking behind her back that she was a creep and was simply staring at the handsome guy. Jealousy crept in and the next moment she knew she was hugging Shiva while loudly saying "Thank god mera pati sahi time pe aa gaya". 

This came as a shocker for everyone as they thought Shiva was unmarried but the shock was the double for Shiva as he didn't expect her to call him her pati. They knew they were husband and wife, they were in a lifetime long relationship but they never dared to say that to each other. A part of him felt happy as he hugged her back. Raavi felt calm and safe. She turned to look at girls who were jealous of her, she gave a victory smile, after all Somnath ki sabse khoobsoorat ladki deserved everything best.
That night, they came home very late, they were dead tired but there was some tension between the two. Raavi smiled thinking of what happened next, she was removing her thin necklace which was stuck with her hair, Shiva helped her remove it. She turned to see Shiva with his desire filled eyes. That moment still felt so fresh for Raavi. She closed her eyes reliving that moment again.
Shiva kept the necklace aside a leaned towards her, she couldn't face his eyes but didn't step back either. She mustered the courage to look into his eyes, the next moment she felt his lips on hers, she was dumbfounded to react and this reaction made Shiva scared, he backed out with guilt but Raavi pulled him and kissed him back with passion. They didn't know why it was happening, they just knew they were in it and thoroughly enjoyed every second of it, he helped her undress herself and she did his. They became one that night, Shiva was extremely caring and soft to not hurt her, made sure she was comfortable and could adjust while she nodded happily. The room was filled with the sounds of moans and giggles for the rest of the night. They were happy and comfortable in each other's arms.

The next day, Shiva started feeling guilty of his actions and didn't talk to Raavi for the next two days. Raavi was heartbroken as she thought he regretted it, they became so gloomy that the whole family were worried about them sepearting again. Dhara was 6 months pregnant around that time and she was stressed about it. Raavi had to take it in her hand and convinced everyone that they were fine and were not planning to part ways. That night she angrily confronted him, but was taken aback she noticed tears rolling down his eyes, she immediately went closer and

Raavi: Shiva, tu ro kyu raha hai? Sab theek hain na? Maine zyaada bhi nahi daata!!

Shiva: I'm so sorry Raavi, mujhe aise nahi karna chahiye tha, pata nahi uss din main apne jazbaaton be kabu nahi rakh paya.

Raavi held her breath and asked nervously: Toh, tujhe lagta hai ki woh sab nahi hona chahiye tha? Woh sab galti thi?

Shiva: Haan, mujhe yeh sab nahi karna chahiye tha, u deserve better Raavi.

Raavi felt tears coming forming in her eyes, she controlled herself and asked: Matlab?

Shiva: Main tere liye sahi nahi hoon yaar, yeh sab (his voice broke as he spoke) tu ne bohot sapne dekhe honge apne hone waale pati ke baare mein aur kahaan tujhe mila main, tere expectations me ek bhi main poora nahi kar paunga, tu meri patni hai aur ab poora Somnath tujhe iss junglee ke patni bulayega. He said trying his best to control his tears. Tu na Dev ke tarah, ek dum gentleman ki laayak ho jo tera dhyaan rakhe, tujhe na rulaaye, tujhe khush rakhe. Aur kahaan main, har waqt tujhe taane maarta hoon, tujhe sunata hion, maammi ka saar gussa tujhpe nikaalta hoon. Tu kitni baar mere waja se ro chuki hai. Main kabhi tera waisa khyaal nahi rakh paaunga. Tera dost toh pehle bana tha, phir apne iss pagal gusse ke wajah se thak ke tu ghar chodne bhi chali gayi aur tujhe rokne ki koshish bhi nahi ki. Woh toh Dhara bhabi aur Gaumbi ne tujhe waapas aane ke liye manaaya tha. Sach me Raavi, main tujhse aise hi nahi ladna chahta tha. He was trying to explain himself while Raavi was astonished, she wondered what made him think he was unworthy. Her heart broke as he continued speaking. Maami ne har jagah pe yeh baat phaila di thi ki, use Teri buri kismat ki fikar hai. Tujhe mujh jaise gawaar aur Sadakjhaap se shaadi karni padi. Uski baat ka mujhe koi fikar nahi hai lekin, puri Somnath ko bhi yahi lagta hai ki maine Teri zindgai barbaad kar di, iss liye tujhse be wajah jhagadta tha. Aur jaise maine socha tu chali bhi gayi thi, tujhe nahi pata tha, main toot gaya that tere jaane je baad, aisa laga ji mar hi jaaon.

Raavi: Shut up Shiva!! Yeh kaise baat kar raha hai? Dimaag kharab ho gaya kya? She asked him in disbelief.

Shiva: Main sach keh raha hoon Raavi! You deserve better, uss din jab Gaumbi aur Dhara bhabi tere ghar aaye the, maine suna tune apne maasi ke khilaaf mere lite boli, uska mooh band karwa di, tujhe pata bhi nahi main uss waqt kitna khush tha. Aisa laga ki maine duniya jeet li. Jab se hum dono ki shaadi hui, main iss baat par hamesha tika tha ki agar tujhe kabhi bhi mujhe chod ke jaane ka man kare toh tu jaa sakti hai. Tu Somnath ki sabse khoobsoorat ladki ho, tujhe har cheez mein best hi Milan chahiye. Abhi bhi agar tujhe lagta hai na ki main tera kaabil nahi hoon, toh main tujhe nahi rookunga. I'm sorry Raavi, I'm really sorry, mujhe uss waqt advantage nahi lena chahiye tha. Pata nahi uss waqt kya hua tha. I'm so sorry!!

He said and hugged her crying uncontrollably. Raavi couldn't find words to console him but with the way he spoke she understood that he was clearly drunk. He slept on her chest crying and she let him. The next day Shiva woke up with severe pain in his head and with no memories of last night. He notice Raavi still sleeping, he got up and left for the store as soon as possible.

Raavi woke up to find Shiva had left for work but that conservation between them just made Raavi realise that she got a gem of a person in her life. Though his words were harsh on himself, it showed how selfless and caring he was, despite his hatred and anger he wished the best for her.

Few days passed with Shiva being silent. Bothe Raavi and Shiva never fought, she did try to pick small fights but that never worked as he just passed by silently. All he did was just responding to Raavi's questions, even if he wanted something from Raavi, he sent Krish or someone else. She royally ignored most of his attempts when Krish turned him down to ask anything to Raavi. But she enjoyed the silence, she didn't like a silent Shiva but that silence made her observe him much better. She started seeing Shiva in a new light, she always knew he loved his family but she started seeing the extend to which he could go for them. He took care if Dhara like a very responsible man, everyone did but he made sure Dhara enjoyed it. He used to accompany her for her checkups when Gaumbi was not available due to store works. Raavi accompanied them too, her sole focus was how Shiva behaved. She noted each and every move of his, his lone time with his tree, his anger, his sense of humour, his hardworking nature, dealing with people and so on.. She knew she was falling hard for him. But the only thing that bothered her was his inferiority complex. His thoughts about not being fit for Raavi. She wanted to make him confident. She still couldn't believe it, he always said he is proud of who he is then why is he ashamed of the very same thing.. With many questions in her head, she saw Shiva going to the room after dinner. She followed him, while Rishita gave an understanding look and took care of rest of the chores.

Raavi went in and saw Shiva looking at something at his phone, he knew she was there but didn't look up, she removes her dupatta and that caught his attention.

Shiva: Ae, kya kar rahi hai? Ruk main bahar chatla hoon, phir change kar le. He said and started walking towards the door when she held his hand and made him meet her eyes. He didn't want to look at her eyes, he knew he'll feel vulnerable. He tried avoiding her gaze but she held his face and made him look at her.

Raavi: Uss din jo kuch bhi hua, mujhe koi afsos nahi hai. Uss din bhi khush thi. Tujhe guily feel karne ki zarrorat nahi hai Shiva. Yeh sochna zaroori nahi hai ki tu ne advantage le li.
She said honestly.

Shiva stared at her blankly but he knew he was going to breakdown, he didn't want to cry his heart out to her. So he just nodded and tried to leave only to be stopped by her again.

Raavi: Shiva!! Aaj kal main apne purane Shiva ko dekh nahi paa rahi hoon. Ho kya gaya hai tujhe? Please Shiva, bhagwaan ke liye, yeh sab band kar. Haan tu mere fairy tale ka Prince nahi hai lekin life bhi koi fairy tale nahi hai. Apne aap ke baare mein itna neccha mat soch. Tu bohot accha hai, tu mera parivaar hai aur please mera gunda wala Shiva ban jaa please!!

She told in a requesting tone, Shiva understood she learnt about his insecurities but how?? His mind wandered finding answers for his question while Raavi spoke again..

Raavi: Please woh pehle wala Shiva ban jaa, jo mere saath jhagda karta tha, ghar waalon ke saath hasi mazaak karta tha. Ye wala silent Shiva accha nahi lagta. Tu kisi se kam nahi hai aur mere khayal se tu Dev se 100 guna zyaada accha hai. Main tere saath khush rehna chahti hoon. Lekin yeh wala Shiva ke saath nahi, woh wala Shiva jise main bachpan se jaanti hoon.

That was it, it broke Shiva, he fell on his knees and started crying, he explained everything to her, he opened his heart out, it was out of being him but he knew she won't judge him. He said though none of the society's thoughts never mattered to him, it mattered when his family says that, a part of him always felt helpless when Maami said her daughter had a bad fate because of marrying him. No one paid heed to continous nonsense but after a point, he really felt that. He explained how he thought Raavi would also be thinking of him that way. He was comfortable in his own skin but now that he had a responsibility, a person with whom he should stay his last breath, a partner with whom he has to share everything, he genuinely didn't want her to feel insulted. The whole night passed as he continued speaking his heart out, Raavi made him feel comfortable, consoled him but never showed any signs of sympathy that would break him further. Their sad conversation turned into a rant and then to joking then to gossiping. Both of them giggled and laughed till the early morning.

It was after this incident that Raavi finally realised she was in love with her bhoothnath, she always loved him as a family, but today she loved him as her lover, a husband and a life partner.

A small smile formed on Raavi's lips when she thought of it, her thoughts were broken when Shiva suddenly hugged her from behind.

Shiva: Oi Chipkali!! Kya soch rahi hai?

Raavi: Ki iss bhoothnath se mujhe pyaar kaise ho gaya.

Shiva: Yeh toh hona tha, iss Shiva se koi pyaar na kare toh woh insaan kehlaane ka laayak nahi hai. He said proudly.

Raavi: Accha!! Chupp!! Baat kya hai?

Shiva: Oh madam, kab tak chudail banke ghoomne ka irada hai. Raat ho chuki hai, chal tujhe khaana khilata hoon aur phir aaram kar lena. Phir neend mein flash back continue kar lena...

He said and pulled her for dinner.....

Hope you enjoy this part, thanks for waiting!! Please ignore grammatical errors and as always suggestions and critisisms are welcome.. Next part coming up super soon..
