It was thursday Ridhima was asusual on her heels tosend the two men off to school and office, side by side managing the ever sohyper Tiya.. Ridhma sighed and kept Tiya in Armaan's lap as she went so seeRyan if he needed any help.. "Aap samhaaliye isko thodi der.. ek minutechain se nahi baithti yeh ladki.."

Armaan on the otherhand was happy cuddling andtickling Tiya making her giggle too.. "Meri pari mamma ko pareshaan kartihai hmm..?" he asked in an amused voice to which Tiya nodded in NO saying"iya gu gal.."

"aww mera bacha.. I know.. meri Tiya gud girlhai.." Armaan gave her a sloppy kiss.. "Tiya loves papa..?"Armaan asked..

"iya lav pa.." Tiya said smiling at herpapa making him fall for her innocent smile yet again.. they looked up whenthey heard Ridhima.. "Papa beti ka pyar ho gaya ho toh, papa ko yaad diladoon ki voh apni meeting ke liye late ho rahe hain.."

"Ridhu.. mera na subah subah Tiya ko chhod kejaane ka mann hi nahi karta.." Armaan cribbed while Ridhima just shruggedher shoulder and went away taking Ryan along with her for breakfast.."itna toh mera shone beta bhi nahi rota school jaate hue jitna papa rotehain office jaate hue.." Ridhima said making Ryan giggle..

After breakfast Ridhma would again check on Ryan forhis lunchbox and shoe-laces.. Ridhima has now started to send Armaan and Ryanoff afew minutes early as everyday the family would get late for their choresin bidding bye only.. While Armaan would crib leaving his beautiful wife andlittle doll, Rihima would pamper Ryan and make his morning really gud tobrighten his day..

As Ryan had an off for three days he was abitrelieved from his homework.. Both and Ryan and Tiya were happy playing ingarden with lucky.. Tiya who was almost two years old and has been keepingeverybody in the house very busy pleasing her and playing with her.. She wouldsit with Ryan on his cycle and let him take rounds.. but unlike Ryan she lovedwater and mud.. she would wet herself on every possible opportunity and play inmud for hours till Ryan complains and Ridhima shouts at her for being sonaughty..

In the evening Anjali and Sapna entered when Ridhimawas sitting with Ryan and Tiya Reading them a story.. Tiya squealed seeingAnjali while Ryan hugged Sapna.. "iya maachi.." Tiya said pointing atAnjali saying this is Tiya's maasi.. "Aww.. right bacha.. Tiya kimaasi.." Anjali said kissing Tiya making her giggle.. while Sapna cuddledRyan gifting him his chocolates..

"main bhi.." Tiya said struggling out ofAnjali's lap to rush to Sapna for her chocolate.. "Arre wah voh maasichocolate de rahi hai toh unke paas jana hai hmm..?" Anjali asked leavingTiya to go to Sapna..

Tiya climbed next to Ryan and looked at Sapna,waiting for Sapna to give her too.. As Sapna waited for Tiya's reaction, Tiyasaw Sapna not moving to give her chocolates so she looked at Ryan making a cuteface saying "baiya iya ki cheeji..?" she showed her empty hands towhich Ryan smiled and kept chocolates from his one fist into Tiya's lap saying"pehle maasi ko thanku bolo mithhu.." seeing her still abitapprehensive he kissed Sapna's cheek saying "Thanku maasi.."

"tanku maachi.." Tiya copied her bhai likea good mithhu and ran to Anjali with her chocolates after kissing Sapna.. Sapnaand Tiya used to meet often just like Anjali but still Anjali pampers Tiya tono extent making Tiya more attached to her..

"App dono aaj yahan kaise..?" Ridhimaasked..
"Armaan ne nahi bataya..?" Sapna asked and continued when Ridhimanodded in NO.. "Hum Ryan, Tiya uar Bi ko lene aaye hain.. they will bestaying with us at Atul's place and then we all will meet tomorrow forlunch.."

"Par main bhi chalti hoon na aapke saath.. kitna waqt hua baithke baateinkare hue.." Ridhima said frowning.. "Nahi Ridhu.. Jeej ko kuch kaamhai na toh tu unko akela chhod ke chalegi humare saath..?" Anjali askedmaking Ridhima think..

"hmm.. par Tiya ko kaise rakhoge aap raat ko..?Ryan toh bada hai reh jaata hai Sapna di ke paas.." Ridhima said in aworried tone..

"Mamma Ryan hai na.. Ryan bi ki help karega..humein jaane do na maasi ke saath.." he pleaded to which Ridhima noddedthinking if bi is also going then they will be able to handle tiya.. otherwisethey are all just 20 minutes away if any problem arises..

After the kids left Ridhima was feeling very bored..she sat in the room with a magazine.. it was after a while that she realizedthat after Tiya's birth this has been the first time that both Tiya and Ryanhave gone for a sleep over.. she wondered when her small cuddly doll and her buddygrew up to stay somewhere else for the night.. she finally went to their roomand started to put things into place.. soon their toys and books were in place,bedsheet was changed and room looked neat and clean unlike everyday..

She came out of their room and gasped when shebumped into Armaan who was staring at her with an amused smile.. "Missingthe kids already..?" he asked.. she nodded and hugged him making himsmile.. "Aapne kyun kaha di se ki unko lekar jaayein rehne ke liye..?"she asked in a dull voice..

"Kyunki tumhare liye mere paas ek surprisehai.."
"kyaaa..? aapne bas ek surprise ke liye unn dono ko.." but her wordsfroze when she felt his lips on hers.. leaving his bag on the floor he pulledher close, crushing her in his embrace.. as she stopped struggling the kissgrew more passionate and longing.. while he was busy relishing her soft lips,she groaned when she felt his palms tracing her waist and back..

They parted when they were short of breath.. hepicked her in his arms and took her to their room.. placing her on the bed hesat beside her pulling her into his embrace.. "Kitna waqt ho gaya hai humdono ko akele kuch waqt guzaare.. humare nanhe shaitaan ab bade ho gaye haintoh maine socha kyun na unki maasi ko kuch kaam pe lagaa ke hum kuch waqt saathrahein.." he said smiling making her smile too..

"hmmm.. aur kya socha hai aapne..?" sheasked the schedule making him grin.. "Socha toh bohot kuch hai agar tumsaath do toh mazaa aajaye.." he said pecking her lips making her smileshyly.. She pushed him from the bed and got up to go somewhere when he pulledher back blocking her in his arms..

"Kahan jaana hai ab meri Ridhu ko..?" heasked in a grumpy voice..
"aap office se aaye hain, bhukh lagi hogi toh aapke liye khana lagane jarahi hoon.." she said trying to free herself as she knew he was in anaughty mood.. but to her surprise he left her very easily, smiling tohimself..

She gasped as she entered the kitchen.. their foodwas set in a tray and everything else was cleaned and set on the place.. shelooked around to find all her helpers out of the house.. she shrugged andcarried the tray to the lounge where Armaan loves eating now adays sittingcudled up with his family..

He came out of the room with a perfect dimpled smilemaking her smile too.. "Aapne pura ghar hi khaali karva diya hai naaaj..?" she said shaking her head and giving him a plate to which henodded and bent down to her face level and bit her chin saying "aage dekhohota hai kya.." she shuddered at his husky voice and got herself busy inher dinner..

After dinner they both sat as per Armaan'sschedule.. they settled in the lounge for a movie with popcorns getting cosy..Ridhima was sitting all curled up with her knees to her chest and Armaan wasseated next to her with his one arm around her shoulder.. he smiled whenRidhima brought some popcorns to his mouth, he turned to her only to see herengrossed in the movie still.. he giggled and bit her hand lightly making herhiss and glare at him.. in turn he pecked her hand making her smile.. Ridhimawas really into the movie but since Armaan has already seen that movie he wasgetting bored..

When finally he was bored like hell he slippedcomfortably on the couch resting his head near her neck and guided his handunder her shirt..she for once turned to him but again concentrated on the movieshaking her head, when he kissed her neck and gave her a naughty smile.."aap movie dekhne kyun nahi de rahe hain mujhe..?" she hissed as hekept on teasing her neck with dry kisses..

"Tum apni movie enjoy karo.. main apna timepasskar raha hoon na.."
"hmmm.. acha timepaas hai.. par mujhe disturb ho raha hai.."

"toh vahi toh main chahta hoon.."
"Kya..?" she asked finally turning herself to him completely hugginghim..

"yahi ki tum disturb ho.. aur sirf mujh pardhyaan do.. maine yeh time humare liye plan kiya hai na.." he said makinga face to which she pouted.. looking at her pouted lips he at once pulled herto himself and planted a sloppy peck on her lips taking her by surprise.. hewaited for her reaction but to his surprise she didn't resist at all so hestarted with his slow torture.. he started caressing her waist inside her shirtwhile kissing her lips very dangerously slow and sensuously..

It has been along time since they have had such intimatetime and opportunity.. Ridhima was also losing her mind as Armaan was kissingher very passionately till they were both at the edge of the couch.. he slowygot off the couch and pulled her down on the carpet along with him.. she gaspedwhen she looked into his eyes.. she could see the passion and longing in thoseeyes..

He placed a pillow under her head and for onceglanced at the clock and sighed as it was still more than an hour for hissurprise.. he hid his face in her neck and graced her skin with his tongueleaving her longing for more.. as she started unbuttoning his shirt he toostarted pulling the buttons of her shirt off while kissing her terribly slowmaking her tremble with desire..

"Armaan please.." she sighed in his ear ashe was still just playing along and not giving her what she has been waitingfor.. he smirked breathing heavily with desire and freed her off her clothes..soon his clothes joined hers too.. he let his hands trace every inch of herbody while his lips were busy hers..

"stop it Armaan please.." she moanedasking him to stop torturing her now.. "Stop what Ridhu.." he askedin a husky voice making her shiver.. "Stop this..?" he asked kissingand biting her lips.. "Or stop this..?" he asked pressing her waistwith his palms making her aware of their closeness and desires..

"stop teasing me Armaan.. please.." shesaid breathing heavily, scratching his chest and planting a few kisses on hisface making him go crazy.. that was now the limit to his patience.. he at oncepushed himself closer and took her making her moan all along as he made love toher..

They laid in eachother's arms after a hot lovemakingsession.. they were just pampering eachother with light pecks and caresses nowand then.. five minutes before 12 he rolled onto his side when she held him.."Kahan ja rahe hain iss waqt..?" he smiled and kissed her foreheadsaying "bas ek minute mein aaya jaan.." pulling his shorts he quicklywent to the kitchen and came out with a small tray in his hands.. it had onecupcake with a candle glowing on it and a small gift wrap next to it..

"meri jaan phir apna birthday bhul gayina..?" he said setting the tray on the low table.. he went to her andpulled to her to him.. "Happy birthday Ridhu.." she smiled her bestand gifted him a kiss making him grin saying thanku instead..

"Main bhul jaun phir bhi aapko toh har saalyaad rehta hai na.." she said quipping making him smile at her innocence..the mother of his two kids was still a baby at heart.. he pulled her into hislap with her back to his chest and held the tray infront of her saying"Blow the candle and make a wish.."

She at once blew the candle and took out a smallpiece of it to Armaan.. and just as he does on all her birthdays.. he held thepiece half in his mouth and asked her to have the other half with him.. Ridhimaknows as usual they will end up kissing eachother out of breath, but now sheknows they belong to each other truly so she does shy abit but initially givesup when Armaan initiates some naughty plans..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Next morningshe woke up and found her nak*d body cuddled up with Armaan's.. she sighed andblushed when she recollected how they lost their minds and made love in thelounge whole night till they dropped dead tired.. she looked around and frownedwhen she registered that they were in their room and not in the lounge.. sheturned to Armaan and caressed his face very gently with her fingers ticklinghim.. as she reached his lips, he very quickly opened his mouth and bit herfingers lighty scaring her..

"aap kabse jage hue hain..?" she asked frowning while he smirked.. "Bas thodider se jab main tumhe utha kar room mein laya tab se.." she felt ticklishas she hands roamed on her waist inside the blanket.. she gasped when he pulledher closer pressing her waist.. on an impulse her hand went to her waist to seewhat was poking her, under his palm.. she gasped when she realized it was awaist chain with some ghunghroos that were tickling her.. "Yeh kahan seaayi..? mere paas koi waist chain nahi hai.."

"Tumharagift tha.. kal raat meri Ridhu ke paas time hi nahi tha gift kholke dekhneka.." he said smirking making her shy.. she looked at the clock it wasjust 7 then.. and it was still time for them to go and get ready to meeteverybody at the other Mallik house.. "main yeh sabke saamne nahipehenungi.." she whispered shyly..

"Parmere saamne toh pehenogi na..?" he asked kissing her earlobe making hershiver at their proximity yet again.. "hmm.." she agreed..

"Sirfwaist chain..?" he asked naughtily to which she gasped and hid her face inhis chest.. "aap bhi na Armaan.."

"I loveto tease you jaan.." he said and started gracing her body with veryfeathery and gentle kisses.. he was not torturing her like last night nor washe in a hurry.. he was just enjoying the moment with her.. he combed her scalpwhile kissing her crazily.. he lightly sat by the bed post and pulled her inhis lap.. she shied when she saw him eyeing her from her shoulders to herwaist.. she trembled and covered his eyes with her palm.. he grinned andpressed her waist bringing her closer in his lap making her realize her effecton his body.. he kissed her all over so gently that she recollected their firstnight together at the outhouse.. his gentleness and care was all for herpleasure and satisfaction, till her moans and groans are joined by his, makingthem oblivious of the world around them..

After anotherteasing yet gentle session of expressing their love they finally got up to takebath.. seeing Armaan following her to the bathroom Ridhima quickly made a runand locked the door saying "ab no more badmashi.. aap jakar dusre roommein nahakar aaiye.." Armaan made a grumpy face and left saying"Bahar aao tumhe chhodunga nahi phir main.."

Cribbing tohimself he went to the other room and came back getting fresh with a glass ofjuice and some toasts for Ridhima and himself.. he entered the room only to seeRidhima coming out of the bathroom in a towel.. just as she was about to enterthe closet he rushed and pinned her to the wall..

"Aap kyakar rahe hain Armaan..?" she asked trying to free herself from his embracebut her voice died when he came close and bit her chin..

"thodider chup nahi reh sakti ho..?" he asked in a grumpy voice making her gaspin surprise.. he looked at her O shaped face and said "muh band karo Ridhuiske pehle ki main phir se kho jaun tumhare ehsaas mein.." listening tohim she immideately averted her gaze making him smirk..

He bentforward and kissed her forehead taking his own sweet time and making hersmile.. he then brought her close into a hug whispering "A very HappyBirthday to My Sweetheart.. Har saal ki tarah iss saal bhi tumara Armaan tumhetumhari marzi ka gift dega.. ek gift meri choice ka jo maine de diya.. aur ekmeri Pyari si Ridhu jo chahe voh maang sakti hai.."

She flashedher angelic smile making his heart flutter and pouted saying "aapne meremaangne ke liye kuch chhoda hi nahi.. bataiye kis baat ki kami hai merepaas..?" he kissed her nose making her giggle and said "Mujhe patatha.. ki tum yahi kahogi.. maine kab kaha ki jo nahi hai voh maango.. mainekaha jo chahiye voh bolo.. Apne iss bade se dil mein kuch khwahishein dabakarrakhi hui hain meri jaan ne.. jinko pura karne ka promise mera hai.. toh abjabki tum khud bhul gayi ho toh yeh hai tumara dusra gift.." he saidplacing an envelope into her hand..

Stillstanding by the wall infront of him, she opened the envelope only to squealnext moment with delight.. as it was their tickets for their holiday to DisneyWorld Resort.. she hugged him tight as she always wanted to go to dsiney landand enjoy their since she has heard of it as a kid.. Armaan came to know itwhen he read it in her diary.. "aapko sab yaad rehta hai na.." shesaid cupping his face with love..

"Yes..meri Ridhu se judi hui har baat yahan bas jaati hai.." he said placing herpalm with his on his heart.. he looked into her eyes and found nothing but seaof love in them.. they never knew when the envelop was on the ground and theywere busy kissing eachother madly.. he realized her state when his palms tracedher bare shoulders.. leaving the kiss, he hid his face in her neck and startedto leave urgent love bites on her upper chest that was free for him to access..

He picked herup from her waist when she moaned his name breathing heavily as the chain shewas wearing under the towel rubbed against her skin.. but he was busy relishingher sweet skin, fresh from shower.. he loved that flowery smell of her soap andshampoo.. she held onto his hand when she felt him sliding her towel away fromher body.. he groaned at the interruption mumbling "don't stop me Ridhu..please.."

His groan andhis hold on her body were enough to make her lose her senses too.. she clutchedonto his nape as he was busy decorating her skin with his teeth.. he finallyvery quickly pulled his clothes off and carried her to the bed still wrapped inher towel.. getting on top of her he got rid off her towel with his teethmaking her hiss.. he traced her swollen lips with his thumb teasing her makingher restless but next moment feeling his hands on her chest and his teeth onher tummy she trembled in ecstasy.. It has been whole night and morning thatthey had made love but still they were craving for eachother like anything..

He giggledand groaned when she took the charge.. at first she let him do what his minddesires but then she started to leave bites on his chest and his abs whilescratching his back making the passion roar inside him.. he at once caught holdof her hands and took her roughly.. their bodies moved in sync and so did theirmoans till they experienced the heaven.. he panted as he got off her sweatybody but smiled when she curled up close to him .. he took her in his embraceand kissed her head.. "I love you Ridhima.." he said with the truthevident in his voice..

She just hidher pink face in his chest and sighed as a reply.. she wanted to say she lovedhim too.. but just putting it in words was not enough for her.. she wanted totell him so much more but may be it was true in their case that silence talksmore loudly than words..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Getting readythey first went to the temple to offer prayers and thank God for a completefamily and then headed to the Mallik house as they got a call from Anjalisaying Tiya is looking for her parents.. Ridhima somehow answered her questionsto satisfy her till they reach, while Armaan drove the car with her hand underhis on the gear..

As soon asthe entered Tiya rushed to her mamma and hugged her tight.. "Tiya kinnidel she dhhund li thi gu gu ko.." Ridhima picked her up and planted a kisson her head saying "mamma aur Tiya game khel rahe the na.. dekho Tiya nedhundh liya mamma ko.."

Tiya squealedin her arms saying "Tiya winsh..?"
"Yesh my baby you win.." Ridhima said hugging Tiya making her happy..

As she wentin she greeted everyone and all of them wished her and blessed her but she wasonly looking for Ryan who was no where to be seen.. finally after sometime sheasked Tiya when they were seated "Tiya.. baby bhaiya kahan hai..?"

"Lyanbaiya andal hai.. tiya leke aaye..?" she asked making a cute face to whichRidhima nodded and kept Tiya on her feet.. Tiya ran inside calling Ryan on topof her lungs and after a few minutes both the kids came back.. Ridhima at oncehugged Ryan kissed him on his head asking "kaisa hai mera buddy..? aaptheek se rahe na maasi ke saath..? Tiya ne kal aapko pareshaan toh nahi kiya naraat ko..?" to which he shook his head saying "nai mamma.. voh toharaam se so gayi thi mere paas.. humne maasi ke saath bohoot saare gameskhele.." he grinned and kissed Ridhima's both the cheeks saying"Happy Birthday mamma.."

"Thankubacha.." she kissed him back making him giggle.. next was Ryan's mitthuwho copied him and giggled too when Ridhima kissed her like Ryan.. Tiya broughther one hand forward and gave a tiny pink flower that was tugged in her pocket,to Ridhima saying "mamma ke liye Tiya layi.." Ridhima smiled andplanted kisses on her face making her smile too saying "Thanku mybaby.."

Next minuteshe took out another flower from her other pocket and gave it to her mammasaying "je lyan baiya laya.." Ridhima took the flower and frownedasking "Bhaiya ka flower aapne kyun diya..?"

"baiya kouyii hui hai na yahan.." she said pointing to her palm making Ridhima gasplooking a Ryan.. while Ryan lightly smacked Tiya's head and grumbled at Tiyasaying "Mitthu secret thi na yeh humari.. mamma ko kyun bataya..?"but next moment he melted when tiya kissed him saying "tiya chollybaiya.."

Before Ryancould say anything Ridhima pulled him in her lap and looked at his hands.. theywere abit yellow because of the medicine but she could still make out somescratches on his palm.. "aapko kaise lagi buddy..? aur aapne bataya kyunnahi mamma ko..?"

"Bi nedawa laga di thi mamma.. aur aapko ko bura lagta na.. Ryan mamma ke liye gardense rose lene gaya tha tab stem se lag gayi.. toh phir aapko aur mitthu ko bhilag jaat.. issiliye Ryan ne mithhu ko voh small vala flower diya.. taaki aurkisi ko na lage.." Ridhima looked at Ryan in surprise.. how thoughtful thekid can be.. she kissed his palms lovingly and hugged him brushing his hair.."I love you betu.."

"mammaaapko papa ne bata diya ki hum ghoomne jaa re hain..?" Ryan asked gettingout of the hug..

"yesbeta.. aur hum sab vahan Disney resort mein bohot masti karnege.."
"kaishe mamma..?" Tiya asked trying to be a part of theconversation.. while others were busy discussing something or the other, Armaanhad his eyes on his little family.. he smiled when Ridhima sat on a single sofawith both the kids sitting on either of her legs.. Just like Armaan hasimagined at times.. two little chatterboxes cuddled into their mamma talking toher non-stop and at times confusing her too..

Ridhima toldTiya about the things they will see around the resort which made Tiya nad Ryanboth very excited to see their fav. Cartoon characters.. for once her eyessearched for Armaan, only to see him sitting right infront of her smirking ather.. she blushed when he mouthed a kiss.. He smiled when he saw her reaction,he has seen her grow tough but still she blushes even at his winks.. Its truethat they have come along way but the freshness that both of them have felt intheir first ever meeting, still existed..

For them itwas not just a beginning of a new season in their lives which is full ofresponsibilities and bondings.. but it was for them a new Era marking a NewArmaan.. A New Ridhima.. and their Love nd trust that was touching skies oftheir satisfaction.
