Keeping his hands on her shoulder, Vansh murmured with care" Love, you, have to solve this issue. Till when are you going to avoid the music? Music is a basic part of everyone's life, you, just can't tell the other one to stop listening to it or can ask the other one to stop playing it."
"I am trying, Vanshu" with a defeated tone, Shanaya looked at Vansh with a broken gaze and hugged him.
Patting her, Vansh spoke" I know, Shana. But you have to move on from this issue. It's just in your mind and heart, it's, in your mind to relate every song to your breakup phase. I know it's because all you did in your breakup phase was to listen to music 24*7, but you have to leave that phase behind, to actually, enjoy your life."
"I am enjoying my life" interrupting him, Shanaya defended herself.
"By sitting here alone?
Enjoy reading it :) Love to all <3
"What exactly is this game?" with brows furrowed, sitting on the sofa in Avni's room, one of the female cousins of Avni questioned. "Just what I told you" making some space in her room for all of them to sit, Avni replied. They were thirteen in total, including Avni, Vihaan, Vansh, Saaransh and Shanaya and, most of them had occupied her bed and sofa. "And exactly what you told us?" helping her in cleaning her bed, Vihaan enquired frustratingly. He had never liked all that, but he could not help it when it was the matter of Avni's choice. "Vihuu, I did not expect this from you" with her wide eyes, Avni looked at him in an unbelieving way and continued"I mean, you are an intelligent and keen person, how could you not understood my game?" Closing his eyes at he
Twenty hours later, dressed in a teal green satin Crisscrop knot backless tank crop top and white skirt, hair covering her bareback in her signature style, Shanaya was sitting with Avni. Avni had worn teal green satin gown with hair tied in a lovely bun and long silver oxidised necklace as an accessory and was smiling at the Mehendi design the Mehendi artist was making on her hands. It was her Mehendi ceremony and all the females' relatives of the Rathore family, Shanaya and Riya were sitting together in the hall. They were around fifty of them and, ten of the Mehendi artists were present for them. "Huhu, soon to be bride is blushing at seeing her soon to be husband name on her hands" teasing Avni, Shanaya brushed her shoulder easily with her's when the Mehendi artist wrote Anubhav's name on her hand. It was not a ritual, but it was a part of the fun of
Once the dance was over, everyone went to their respective place and, it was TEAM B turn to take the lead. It was midnight and, only two of the papers in each, basket, was left. Avni picks out the second last slip and a mysterious smile broke on her face. She lifts her head and spoke"Vihaan and"taking a glance at Shana, continued"Shanaya". Shanaya did not know what happened next, except, she could feel Vansh and Saaransh concerned eyes on her. None of them has told anyone about the incident of Vihaan and Shanaya, and making it appear normal was surely going to be hard. Shanaya realized the gravity of the situation in the next two minutes, when her heart did not seems to belong to her, beating furiously when she walked toward Vihaan. Standing close to Shanaya, Vihaan did not glance at her
Sitting in front of the dressing table in one of the rooms of the Rathore's guest house, Avni looks at herself with kohl eyes and thick eyelashes, face glowing and blushing due to the bridal makeup. She let go her eyes to her dress, she was wearing champagne gold bridal lehenga designed by Shana with uncut diamond and gold piece of jewellery to compliment it.She was going to marry the love of her life, but she was nervous.She had always thought of marrying Anubhav, but when it was going to happen, the thought of going away from her family was unsettling.She lifts her eyes toward the gate of the room when she heard the footsteps and saw Mrs Chaya and Shakti Rathore coming in the room.Her eyes met Mrs Chaya Rathore, who had stopped in her way to her and was looking at her with pure love, but, with a little bit of sadness in her eyes."Oh my child, you are looking absolutely gorgeous" coming in Avni's room, Mrs Chaya R
Looking at the arrangement in admiration, Vihaan felt proud of Shanaya and himself for believing in her. He was sure the merging of their companies was going to be a helpful, provided Shana was ready to take a professional chance with him.He cursed at himself for behaving like a jackass with her, but then, a smile covered his face remembering the game night.He could not believe he touched her in front of so many audiences! But, he was not going to ever, regret it."Vi, my man"distracting him, Saaransh hugged Vihaan."And I thought you are going to be with the groom side as always" hugging him, Vihaan spoke with a hint of sarcasm."Oh, come on, man! I am a person in demand." winking at him, Saaransh admired the view and spoke with pride"Shana is a gem."Ignoring his stateme
Roaming around the corridors with no thoughts and emotions, clad in her favourite black joggers and blue tee, her hair in a messy bun and her ears covered with earphones, Shanaya took the stairs and ascended to the second floor.It was almost midnight and, the temperature was not high. The decorated lights were blinking and, the Mansion was bathing in it, the trees were swaying and, the moon was enjoying the cool wind and the view of dancing trees and plants.The Mansion was the same and, yet it appeared to be different. It was not in it's usual, with no murmurs and footsteps.Sitting on the stairs, with her face toward the hall of the Mansion, Shanaya smiled with the ironical expressions. She could not accept Avni had just gone to her new home, leaving her family behind.The adieu was the most torturous things she had ever witnessed and felt. She had heard about the pain of the parents of the
Sitting on the sofa chair for an hour, Vihaan kept on looking at the pictures of his childhood. He smiled a little when he saw his younger self sleeping in Avni lap in his twenties.It was just a day, and he was already missing her. He had never imagined the current scenario and had no idea how to cope up.He knew Avni was going to be happy with Anubhav and, he could meet her whenever he wished. She was still his sister and, he, can talk to her as much as he, wants, but he too could not deny she was now a married woman.In order to distract himself from missing her more, he opened his laptop to check emails. He had not visited the office for the last three days and, he was sure he was going to be busy like hell.He was not in favour of sleeping again or, to imagine things he did not wish. He had no one to talk his heart out his, best friend had gone back to his home, Vansh was sleep
"Erina, is everything ready?" sitting on the sofa chair in his bedroom, with his phone buried between his left side face and neck, his hands busy with the shoelace, Vihaan enquired.He listen to the other side and spoke after a minute"Good, make sure nothing is out of the place" and hanging up the phone stood up to move toward the full view mirror.He scans himself from top to bottom and then vice versa for more than two times. He was looking his usual, handsome and hot in his Black suit and a light blue shirt.But, he was not yet satisfied with his looks.Adjusting his hair for the hundredth times, he murmured to himself"I am, almost done" and move toward the wardrobe once again.Opening the tie section, he rummaged his fingers through several ties and after a minute, pick up two ties, a pure black silk t
Lying on their bed, she watched him, removing the tie, and unbuttoning his shirt, and then suddenly he stopped.The action did not go unnoticed, and immediately, Shana looked at him.And found him looking at her."Always Look at me," he demanded as soon as their eyes met."I am already looking at only you," Shana replied emphasising on 'you', and her eyes reached to his manhood again.Shana took a long breath as soon as his hands touched his belt.All the curiosity, anxiety, and excitement made their way, and she could feel the sweating make the way.She had touched and had felt him, but now she was going to see it.As if he could sense, he spoke," Are you sure?" Even though his heart was praying, " Please don't say 'No'"."Are you going to torture me in slow motion, " Shana was restless now."Ha
"What?" Vihaan almost stammered.And he broke the kiss, not because he wanted to, though. He looked at her, shock written all over his face.Did he just hear Shana correctly?Shana hesitated. Was Vihaan not ready anymore for her?But the kiss did not seem like it. It had the same passion."Nothing," and she blurts out with disappointment, lacing her voice."Shana...please repeat what you said?" Vihaan just wanted to hear her say once more.He had wanted to hear it for such a long time that he was not sure he was even hearing it.Lifting her chin, making her eyes meet his, Vihaan spoke again," Please, just once."His pleading but love-loaded eyes and his thumping heart answered the one Shana was searching for, and she whispered the magic words again," Love me, Vihaan."Tick tick tick
Ascending the stairs, Shana knew it was a turning night in her life.Vihaan had never left a party like it ever.And she was confused.No way, Vihaan had left the party simply because saaransh had danced with her.And the voice of Vihaan rang in her mind, " One touch of another man on your skin and trust me, you will never forget this night.""He was not serious about it." speaking to herself, she tried calming herself.She was so engrossed she hardly heard Vansh's footsteps beside her."Good night, beautifool" Stopping at the first floor, Vansh looked at her.Shana smiled tight lips, her eyes on the second floor, her heart beating fast, in excitement and desire.Waving goodbye to Vansh, she hurriedly ascended the stairs and halted in front of the door to their bedroom.Calming her running heart,
Everything was going well. Since the arrival of Vihaan, Shana could hardly feel any gaze. And the party was going great. As it was for only closed ones, it hardly had thirty to forty people. The food, the music, the aura, everything was perfect. "I think it will be a girl" Sipping the soft drink, Shana spoke, her eyes filled with love looking at Avni's belly. She was standing in the middle of the party hall with Vansh, Avni and Anubhav. "I think it would be a boy" Vansh spoke next. "Come on! I can tell you it will be a girl" Caressing her belly, Avni glared at Vansh. "Ofcourse, even I want a girl" Joining Avni, Anubhav continued" Imagine having a little image of you. That would be so beautiful" and he was dreamy now. Shana was enjoying t
Shana was sitting in front of the dressing table, her pinkish-round face glowing.Not with any makeup, but with shyness, excitement and nervousness.Her greenish silk saree with a backless blouse and the emerald necklace adoring her petite and creamy neck were not making her less prettier.And she realised people saying green is her colour were not liars.She was glad to choose green, for she wanted to look pretty. The feminine in her was urging her to look beautiful, for herself and for Vihaan.She knew something had changed, maybe not just something but everything.She now wanted to wear gorgeous sarees and dresses and wanted to look mesmerizing every time.And her expectations of herself were so much, she could not even decide which lipstick to apply.Her heart as usual wanted red, but her eyes and mind were urging her to go to pink.And vihaan lying on the bed, his hands supporting his head was not helpful at all.Instead, like always he was increasing her heartbeats and regrets.
Shana might not have forgiven him, but she would answer him ,whenever he would ask her anything.But that was it.Days passed and it was one fine day.Avni and anubhav have visited them and all except Vihaan were sitting in the lobby, enjoying the sunset and cool Breeze while enjoying the coffee.Vihaan was as usual in his office, he had some important meetings with the international client.But he had promised Avni he would be with them as soon as the meeting will be over.Sipping the coffee while gossiping , Avni spoke up, gaining everyone's attention on her"I have something to share with you."And she had everyone's attention.She looked nervously at everyone and then her gaze halted at Anubhav who was sitting beside her on the sofa.Out of her habit, Shana was noticing her body language and she noticed Avni's p
Two days passed and it was already Sunday.Neither Shana nor Vihaan had any plans, but the rest of the Rathores had already departed to one of their relatives.Since it was one of her favourites, Shana took her time to wake up.She had no obligation to wake up early and to rush to the office.She had inner plans though.She wanted to wake up late, have a bath, have brunch and then she wanted to dedicate her time to writing.It was killing her to know she had not written a single line for a long time.Waking up at ten in the morning, she was out of her room after half an hour.She had not taken a bath yet, she was craving for some strong coffee.Still in her sleep, she descended the stairs to reach Vansh's floor and the thought of having a glimpse of him made her walk toward his room.Knocking, sh
Good morning" Trying to meet her eyes, Vihaan spoke while sitting at the breakfast table.It was not exactly morning; it was ten in the morning, and they both were late for the office.Or, Vihaan was deliberately late as he was waiting for Shana to at least look at him.He was completely sober, even if he was not, he was not going to show it.The thought of the night was a nightmare for him and he did not want to ruin the present day.But it looked like it had.He felt Shana ignoring him completely, and once done with the breakfast, he followed her back to his room.Closing the door, he walked toward Shana and lightly grabbing her elbow, made her turn towards him."Please look at me" Lifting her chin with his index finger; he was like a lost puppy.Shana did not glance at him."I am sorry, Shana"
Tick tick tick....The second hand of the wall clock was increasing her heartbeat with every strike and she was becoming more anxious.Now she was concerned about him. It might have been normal for her to pretend to be okay in front of the members of the family when they had asked about Vihaan and she had replied" He will be late."But, now when she was alone, and time was passing at a fast pace, she was worried.All she wanted was for him to be in front of her.Lurching up from the bed, she stood up and picking the phone from the table, she had just dialled his number when she heard the bell ringing outside the door of the room.And the next second, she heard the knob of the door turning.She had never been so relieved as she was a the moment and she almost ran forward to hug him.But, then she stopped and all the anxiousness, worri
