AR FF: MY Bride.3 |Page 153| - Page 11

24 –I am Busy! =P

"I curse the day, when I suggested you to continue with your master degree…"Armaan spoke, gritting his teeth, as he pulls his tie out of his neck, and threw it across the room. Riddhima wearing spec was settled in front of study table available in the room, with books – notes scattered on it. She smiled as he heard his voice, and he throwing things in the room, she pulls her spec out, and got up, walking up to him, "What?" he asked, "Evening…" she replied, hiding her grin, she hugged him… he scowled and hugged her… "I miss the trip back in Shimla…" he complained hugging her tightly, engulfing her petite figure. "what a horrible life we are living… dad has to share some workload – me coming home at 10… you almost sleep by that time, and then in morning… I only get a small peck," he was interrupted, "that last for 10 minutes," she replied, "yea whatever, and then you rush to change as you have to attend one of your stupid classes….! We go onto our ways… and then whole day… you don't text me or call me…!" he was again interrupted, "Stop lying….! I call you in break hours… and I do text…!" she punched his chest, as she kept her head on his chest with close eyes, inhaling his fragrance, she always found peace in his arms… she felt relaxed… she growing more dependent on him these days, "whatever Riddhima!! Once a call and few texts can't make up for the whole day okay…!" he scowled while getting her hair away from her neck, he kissed her passionately, below her ear, and then slightly pushing her head off his chest, he kissed her neck, throat even more passionately, with it he followed his lips to her earlobe, suckling it… he was in a hurry…. Not wanting to let go of her … what if next second she remembered to do something, "Armaan…. I have to submit an assignment tomorrow…!" she held him by his shoulder, "what is it Yaar!" he got away from him, picked his pjs suit kept by her already on the bed and went in washroom frustrated at himself at her…. ! She frowned at him… why was he getting so worked up…? She thought, shuddering she went back to her books, sighing… she knew once he came out he would kept blabbering how he regretted the day when he suggested her to study for master degree in faience!

He came out, angrily shut the door of washroom and threw his office cloth on floor, and eventually threw himself on bed with his face in his pillow, mumbling curses to management of her university… she giggled and continued to wind up her work, in between she got a call from Muskan, asking about the assignment – she kept on talking and writing, Armaan, who notice this got an idea, smilingly he went… getting hold of her phone, startling her, he spoke to Muskan… "cheater, you copying my wife's assignment," "Armaan!" Riddhima tried to get her phone back, "Muskan ki bachi… khud kar!" Armaan told Muskan and cut the phone, "Armaan! She wasn't cheating! She was asking my help…" Riddhima shook her head, disappointingly and call her back, "Hello Muskan… ignore him…! Okay, yea what else… nothing? Sorry Muskan… you know na Armaan…! Paka you not angry? Okay then chal bye… see you at uni…okay bye…" Riddhima cuts, "Dheka…. She looks upset, Armaannn why did you do that…!" she asked as she settled on chair in front of the study table, "I thought of an idea… but really does that matter?" he asked, annoyed by her attitude, all she cared about was Muskan, what about him? He thought.

"Armaann what idea? Related to what? See I need to work… I don't want to play around…" she spoke seriously. "Fine… I won't bother you! You can talk to her… but listening to me is play around matter for you… so fine I won't bother…" he replied and went back to bed, "Stop bring out things from my words!" she stated, moaning. "whatever Riddhima! Goodnight!" he replied back, "it was a bad day… and a horrible too!" he mumbled and tussling with the blanket after closing the side lamp of his bed.

At 3 in night, he saw the study table lamp still glowing in the dark room, rubbing his eyes he got up – and went up to her, she was sleeping with her head over her books, notes. He shook his head, at her struggle – he knew she was putting her best to get this degree – just to get in to office work with him… so they get more time… he knew all this was in her heart… she had spoke to him one night – and he was dearly waiting for her to join office… but before that she really has to get this degree and get better in business field before joining…. Sighing he picked her up, "Ar..maan…" she woke up, "shhh… go back to sleep…" he replied, lowering her on bed, "Armaan… I haven't completed my assignment yet…" she tried to get up, "Riddhima… sleep… it will be completed…" he get her in the bed with the blanket on her, "par.. how?" she asked, as her back began to cry with pain as she straightened in bed… "Trust me and sleep…" he closed her eyes… with his hand; she sighed and closed her eyes, within minutes she was in sleep…

Armaan walk back to the table, picking up her incomplete note, he smirked with acknowledgement, nodding in approval – he settled and began to write….

"ARMAAAN…. OH GOD. I HAD TO SUBMIT THE ASSIGNMENT! SHIT SHIT!" Riddhima shouted, throwing the blanket away, she rushed to study table. "Shuru hogaye modanna… !" he mumbled, and felt her on top of him within the next minute, "oww…" he cried, "OHH MY GOD! Armaaan My Jannnuu hehehee" she pushed the blanket of his face and pecked his lips, loudly, settling herself on him "you completed my Assignment…! I loveee you!" she hugged him, "oh God Riddhima, get off me…" Armaan held by her shoulder and pushed her on the empty side of bed; she sat beside him and read from where he had written…. Nodding in approval – she kept the file at a side and went on top of him, again, "Thankk you, sweetheart," she pecked his cheek – destroying his sleep. "Riddhima…. Yaaar I want to sleep…!" Armaan scowled, "nahi… I am not going from here…" she kept her head over his chest and hugged him, though he was big but still she kept a hold on to him….! "I am angry at you for your intolerable behavior…!" he mumbled circling an arm around her, cursing the blanket which was in between them… "aww… my Jannu is angry…." She kissed his jaw, which startled Armaan, "what has gotten in to you… this morning!" he rotated her – pushed her back on bed and came on top of him, "Nothing… my sweetie pie…" she again placed a kiss on his cheek, "Riddhima… chalo… we need to get you check! What is it? Hormonal change?" he asked, checking her forehead, "shut up!" she smacked his arm… and pushed him away, "you na… always destroy my mood with you intolerable bakwas…!" she commented and walk to wardrobe. "acha naa… sorry…" he followed her, "Armaan… how many time do I have to tell you… please wear a shirt when you sleep!" she turned to face him but turned to face wardrobe as she notice him topless, "uhmm let me thinkkk….." pause, holding her wrist he twist her in his arms, "Ah…" she moaned due to sudden twist, and then a bang over his hard chest, "keep on telling me forever…" he whispered, nuzzling his nose on cheek, she turned her face away giving his pointed nose to slid down and nuzzle the nest of her neck….! Her eyes were closed as she felt his manly fragrance making it hard for her to breathe, he had a very good grip over her petite figure, holding her in his arms, he kissed her neck-throat, down to valley nap, "tccch…." She frowned as he brought her skin between his teeth, "no…" she whispered as he brought even more skin between his teeth…. "Ouch…" she cried, as he bit her and then eases her by placing wet kisses over it….

Knock Knocck..!

"Riddhima Bhabhi…!" they heard a call,

"H-haaan Rahul…. Coming..! 5 minutes!" she pushed Armaan away and took a pair of dress and rushed to washroom, leaving a huffing puffing Armaan Behind…!

"Muskan must be soo angry that I am late again!" Rahul commented as he came out of the car and rushed in the uni… "Riddhima…?" Armaan held her wrist, "hmm…" she smiled at him, "I miss you a lot… can't you take a day off?" "I want to Armaan, par papers will start soon… wait for a while… please," Riddhima replied, helplessly. "Okay… go on… class k time hogaya hai! And send that idiot Rahul back," Armaan told politely. Riddhima leaned forward, turned his face and kissed him, he was taken back but nevertheless he continued to kiss her back, "I will make it up to you… promise…." She whispered and rushed out of the car… "When GOD? Whenn?" he asked and kept his head on his seat with close eyes.

"Bhai?" Rahul shook him, "Huh… did you meet Muskan?" Armaan smirked, at Rahul, who settled in front now. "yea… wooohoo, she was blasting at me not meeting to me!" Rahul laughed and both the brothers made their way to office… "lol Rahul, if this is what happens before marriage what will happen after 2 years?" Armaaan teased. "Okay whatever bhai! Nothing will happen – she is just hot-tempered, and I will melt her by my love…!" Rahul replied, shamelessly. "Rascal!" Armaan commented and Rahul laughed. Armaan's time in office went better as Rahul announce to join and help Armaan and billy… Armaan knew once Rahul got involve with work – he will be able to meet Riddhima early, smiling he heard Rahul's unending story…!

Getting home around 5 in evening, Armaan shouted, "Ridddhimaa! Riddhimaa!" pause, "Momm, where is Riddhima?" Armaan excitedly asked her mother, who shook her head disappointingly and began to work, "Kya hua mom?" Armaan frowned and stepped, "tumhri biwi!" Naina lost her temper but cool down next moment, as she his son frowned harder with confusion, "does she realize she is daughter-in-law – of this huge family? Does she understand that she hold some responsibility towards us – towards this house?" Naina babbled, working around the kitchen – "Mom what did she do?" Armaan asked, restlessly. First he was disappointed not to her here and over top his mom looked really pissed off. "Armaan, I understand you and Billy wants her to pursue her study – so that she can join you and Billy in business – trust me I will be happy. par Armaan, there are other things in a society except studying and doing a job!" Naina spoke her heart out as tears stroke her cheek.

"Mom… can you please tell hua kya?" Armaan helplessly asked, rubbing his forehead with his fingers, "in noon timing my friends came to meet my daughter-in-law, one of those friends that couldn't manage to attend ur wedding – tou I called Riddhima and told her to come home for a while… but she…. She told me she can't come as she had an important presentation line up – and it is close to impossible..! You know how insulted and embarrassed I felt! And looked the watch its 5:30 and she still is not back! Is this how a daughter-in-law behaves!" Naina complained,

"Naina… bachoon ki tarhan baat mat karo! Try to be more mature!" Billy walked in and pressed Armaan's shoulder from back, as Armaan was settled on the chair available, "Armaan tum call karo Riddhima ko abhi!" Naina spoke, orderly… "mom… give her space…! I had asked both of you before giving her the idea of studies – she would have stopped her studies if I haven't pressurized her; even dad wants this, Right dad?" Armaan look back at him, billy nodded. "so now backing off at it – is wrong…! We Maliks don't back out on our words!" Armaan tried to cheer his mom's mood but he just saw few more tears stroking out of her eyes.

"Moom…! If I was at Riddhima's place or Rahul – would you have reacted the same? Take her part of family mom… she will really feel bad if she heard this thoughts of yours… she is just 20… doing her best! I am proud to have my mate, she take care of me." He lied, he knew she didn't even had 5 minutes for him – but that was his and her personal matter that could be solved within the room not in front of others, "she take care of my medicine!" Billy interrupted to Naina and Armaan's surprise.

"What?" Armaan and Naina asked – exclaiming their unawareness about this situation, "Yes…! Naina tou is always busy with her kitty parties – every evening at 7 Riddhima comes to me, give me some sort of different snacks every day and then she gives me my regular medicines, didn't you both knew about this? I thought everyone knew and appreciated the fact! Bohat hee pyari bachi hai!" Billy commented,

"See mom…! There are things which had gone ignorant from us, even I didn't knew they both took out time for each other…! I guess, we both haven't got close to her as Dad has…" Armaan manipulated her, winking at his dad, who grinned at his son, Armaan had wrapped his arm around his mom, all the time they all had back towards door, but now Armaan was facing the Door of kitchen, "O-o" he spoke, freeze at his place, Billy turned to notice a crying Riddhima, holding onto the latch of door. "Rid…" Billy walked up to her worriedly while she ran away to her room. "Now that's what I was afraid off!" Armaan frowned, sadly.

"I… I didn't want this to happen!" Naina hesitated, as she knew the male group was going to accuse her, "Oh well my dear wife, it IS your fault!" Billy spoke, angrily, Naina looks up, guiltily… "relax dad… mai… I will go to her…" Armaan hurriedly rushed up to their room, opening it he saw all her books, notes laptop, pens, every little important thing of her studies were at floor, scattered…. Her screen of laptop was broken, he sighed and was shock to notice such aggressive response, he called her, "Riddhimaa!" he could locate her, he went in washroom to find it lock – he placed his ear on it, and heard her sobs along with hiccups, "Riddhima… Jaaan…. Baby… please open the door…. Please… Riddhima… I am sorry… for whatever happen… please come out…. Jaaan…. Sweetheart… Riddhima I am requesting you pleaassse…." This went on for few minute, till she got irritated and burst out of the washroom, pushing him away she went to her side of bed, "what is all this…? Why did you break laptop? Tumhare papa(Shahank) k thodi tah jou tod diya!" he sniggered as he saw her glares, "don't you dare bring my papa in between!" she pointed her finger at him, "ohh hoo… Papa… ki chamchi!" he teased to lighten her mood, "Shut up Armaan!" she glared at him, as she notice him picking up her papers, assembling them. "What was the need to do this, you could have beaten me black and blue – you didn't have to destroy your own hard work – now how will you separate them!" he logically told her, she got off the bed, walked upto him – snatched her notes from him and threw them harshly on floor, "RIddhdima!" he angrily held her by elbow, "I will not continue my studies! Bass! End of discussion!" she spoke by, angrily and tried to detangle her elbow in while kicked her broken laptop smashing it with anger, "Shut up, not a word out of you now!" he scolded her damn seriously, her angry eyes turned to show fear as she had never seen him getting so mad at her, 'I am not even at fault… and he is scolding me…' she thought, her fearful eyes began to stroke tears, "Now I am helping you clean this room, we arrange notes as per your subjects, - you put you assignments and other things… properly, then we will sit and talk about it… smjhi?" he left her elbow, softly pulled her face up by placing his fingers below her chin, she was still crying silently, but nodded in reply…

"good, chalo pick up the papers, I will pick the glasses of laptop." Armaan patted her cheek and kneeled down to clean the laptop mess, he sighed and worked out his brain… of what to talk to her and how….!

Once all her papers were in one pile, under her instructions – they began to separate all different notes of different subject… she was looking much lighter, calm… he thought, and once they were done he held her hand and they both sat on the bed, face to face, "Mom… Is guilty… shhh let me speak…. First, you will get your chance too" he placed his finger on her petals; she lowered her eyes and sighed, "I know you are right at your place…. But Riddhima she is not wrong, partially…. I mean, every mother-in-law wants to introduce their daughter-in-law to her friends… and I know you wouldn't mind meeting them… but the time mom said, you were busy… she should have understood… and I apologize on her behave… its not a big deal i know mom has realize her mistake… please, don't keep any bad feeling for her Riddhima…. Small things happen in every family… didn't we had fight in Shimla… we sorted out right? Tou by destroying things, your hard work, and making foolish statement… is wrong! And it was me who decided that you will study it is me who is going to decide if you will or will not study in future… for now… you will study… I am saying sorry from mom's side…" he ended, by keeping a hand over hers, he tried to make her understand more maturely… this act that she did truly proved how stupidly immature she is… but he was there to guide her…! He had promised himself…

"I am not angry at mom… I am just upset… she chose you and dad, for complaining about me Armaan… I wouldn't have felt bad if she had spoken to me… scolded me… directly, by involving you and dad… that had affected me Armaan… I don't want to study… I don't feel like studying… why I should study…. Papa was right…. Girls are meant to stay home and serve their husband and his family…" Riddhima choked and remembered her hard time back in past, "I am not a daughter-in-law Armaan… I upset mom today… I don't keep you happy…. every other day you get angry on my studies taking my most of time… I have been ignoring everything in this studies… I should be at home, like a wife… I should do my duties…! Its good that I leave my studies… forever…" she cried and finally came towards him and hugged him, crying like a baby… she hated when someone showed bitterness to her – she had no one to call her own, in past … and for studies she is not going to lose such beautiful family, she thought. "shhh pagal….! Essa koi rota hai kya Riddhima…" he circled one arm around her and took her in his arms,

Naina was at door, she looks at Armaan who was staring at her, with silent accusation… Naina went away crying on her, for her own guilt… "I am here na… and you tou know me, mera tou 24 hour k drama hai, I will whince when you are not with! I love too much na yrr… pagal hoon na tumhara… I just want you in front of me…. And I keep admiring you my beautiful wife…!" he teased rubbing her back, while she subsided her sobs…

"acha ab rona chodo, we came home around 5… and see its already 7 in all this drama of yours…" pause, her mouth fell open, "now jaldi ek kiss dou …. Aur don't think stupid… you will study – and you know your duties well, dad praised you too women… you ignored the good part…" he banged his forehead with hers, she faintly smiled and stares in his eyes with love, "you are a great wife… but don't ignore me yrrr…. I am your husband… kuch tou bhao diya karo…" he added, she giggled finally and smacked him, "acha chalo hansi tou Phansi…!" he dialogue, "oh god! Armaan stop being filmy…!" she rolled her eyes and rubbed her face with her palm, "fine… at least kiss me… then we will go down…" he grinned at her, "no… mood nahi hai!" she tried to get up, but he locked his hand around her, "nope no chance madam… chalo… jaldi… wese forget it, you are going to waste time in talking anyway, let me do the honor…!" Armaan saw her mouth open up with shock, but before she could utter anything he jammed her lips with his, kissing her crazily… while she angrily thought not to respond, she punched his chest – trying to pushed her face out of his reach but he was to smart, his palm held her face tightly, while he bit her lips making her moan, and that is when he probed his lips is her slightly parted lips, soon she lost when she felt his lips, his tongue driving her insane…

"I am sorry… I didn't see, please carry on!" Rahul turned his back at their room's open door… "Rahull!" Armaan cried angrily, Riddhima pushed Armaan away and rushed in washroom… "What bhai? That's why you were rushing for home early ehh? Left all work on my poor shoulder, and came home to make out with my sweet delicate Bhabhi…" Rahul ran away and Armaan ran angrily towards him, "wait you morooon!" Rahul rushed down the stairs, shouting for his life, while Armaan ran after him, "you will die today, you just wait! Rascal!" Armaan threatened him, a shy Riddhima was slowly coming down the stairs, seeing Rahul laid on floor with Armaan on top, punching him, oww bhai… stop yaar, acha sorry…. Riddhima save me yrr!" Rahul looked for help while his parents just ignored the two and were smiling at their own, "Armaan leave him… Armaan…" she stood behind him, "kyu wifey… do you want to hold you in my arms," Armaan got up commenting shamelessly, Rahul whistled, only to get a smack from Riddhima, whose eyes were looking at Naina and Billy's back, and at Armaan. "You are a disgusting man!" She muttered and stomped over his feet. "oewww!" Armaan cried, dramatically and jumped on feet till he settled on couch.

Riddhima kept a hand over Naina… and said, "mom… let me serve you all the dinner…" Riddhima smiled at Naina, "nahi beta… you sit you must be tired… I am sorry for early behavior… I hope you don't keep any hurt feelings for me… please forgive your mom… hmm?" Naina lovingly kissed her forehead, "I can never be angry on you, mom… and I promise, next time I will get home no matter whatever presentation it is… family comes first…." Riddhima hugged naina and pursued her to settle down, She settled table and worked everything… and later joined everyone, they shared joke, but Riddhima didn't brought her studies in between today, she decided to manage everything… she knew she was wrong that she gave 99% of her time to studies, and today she got one more lesson… she thought from today she would take everything together, and try not to disappoint any one.

Riddhima apologized to Billy as she forgot their evening snack time, and he had shuddered it away saying she will have to pay tax for it, tomorrow, as extra hour with him, she laughed and said okay to it… sending Naina, Riddhima handled the chorus after Dinner, instructed everything to Servant – and was helping them, chatting with them until the work was finished, she sent them away to their cottage and came out after shutting off the lights, walking up to the lounge, she corrects things and fell on one of the couch, throwing her head back on the couch post. Feeling him picking her up, she smiled with close eyes and nuzzled his chest, throwing her weight on him, he smiled, "what if I am not your husband, you should at least before trusting the person picking you up…!" Armaan teased, "I would happily relax in a burglar's arm too… I too tried to look whose this," she teased back with close eyes, "Oh god, I didn't knew my wife was expecting a burglar to pick her up, should I throw you down?" he teased her by jerking her in his lap, "tccchh.hh …. Don't do that, she opened her eyes, which was filled with tiredness; she faintly smiled as she heard his soft whisper, "Sorry…"

Lowering her on bed, both heard her phone buzz, Riddhima frowned and turned herself around, over her stomach, clutching her blanket she pulled it up on herself, frowningly. Armaan smiled and answered her phone, "Hello Anjali… yaar she is sleeping, … pause, okay I will tell her, once she wake up,"pause, "no Anjali heck with it… she need rest!" Armaan hung up, "kya hua…?" she asked from under the blanket, "Nothing…" he replied, and saw Anjali calling again, he silently, cuts her call and switch it off, and puts the receiver a side of home line number, he knew her friends were damn stubborn…!

"bato naa…" she asked him, once he got himself out of his shirt and get in the bed, "tchh… you are soo stubborn… Riddhima, sojao na!" he softly told her, pulling his one arm around her, getting her closer to him and he himself getting closer to her, her palm fell on his chest, "tchh… shirt kahan hai tumhari!" she whispered and went closer to him, "jahan-num(hell) mai" he kissed her cheek, "hate you…" she whispered while keeping her head on his chest and one hand over his side ribs… he smiled and felt heaven around him as her soft palm sent vibes in him. Hearing her soft and steady breathes he knew she had fallen asleep; soon enough he went to slumber too.

Next morning, Riddhima was in a foul mood, she didn't want to fight so she ignored to talk to him, him as in Armaan! Lol! "Riddhima, if you won't tell me what's bugging you in early morning, how would I know what have I done!" Armaan stretched in bed, while yawning, "nothing… just shut up and leave me with myself, for today!" she packed her bag, quickly. "Aree par…" Armaan got out of bed, walking up to her – frowning… "PleasssE! Don't come close to me..!" she stopped him at his place by showing him her hand, "what is it?" he asked, shockingly… "Armaan…" she chocked, "please don't ask me any question okay… please just leave me at my own…" she hung her purse over her shoulder and began to go out of the room, "I will go to university on my own…" she added, "Shut up…"he angrily held her wrist, "Settle down, on bed, NOW!" Armaan said, "I be back in 10 minutes, I will drop you off… stop acting like a baby!" he commented at her, and made her settle down, she sniffed and looks away, "Its okay… its normal," he whispered, kissing her forehead, "you can tell me… anything… I understand," he smiled down at her, while she stared at him shockingly. "what?" he spoke in ever so lightly voice… she shook her head, and looks away, "relax… sweetheart…" he patted her cheek and went to washroom.

She worked her brain out when her phone buzzed, "hello? Uhm… I am coming with Armaan, Anjali" Pause, "he knows… I am… not well," she spoke to Anjali… "fine… you were right, about man!" Riddhima replied, giggling. "I thought he … okay whatever… you don't worry… I am fine and comfortable now…" Riddhima replied to Anjali, "haan haan sorry bhai, forgive me… for waking you up at 5 in morning… I am dumb to do so… next time I will wake him up…!" Riddhima giggled at her own stupid statement… "a.." she looks up to see Armaan cocking his eye brows at her, she bit her lips, "shit…" she mumbled, and quickly said bye to Anjali, and hung up.

"lets go…" Armaan said, walking out of the room, ignoring her conversation, she shyly walk behind him like lamp. She silently thanked him for not teasing her over the very awkward phase of her life.

"Riddhima…" he held her hand as she was jumping out of the car, "Take car, and call me at once if you feel tired or you want to go home, other car is with Rahul and one Dad took to Shimla as Dadu called him," Armaan spoke to her,

She nodded, "okay, why dad went all of a sudden? Is everything okay?" she asked, "and listen," he stopped her again, and passed cash to her, "I have money Armaan…" she shook her head, "fine… then keep these too! I don't know why my money keep falling…" he joked, she laughed and took it, "thank you…" she came forward and kissed his cheek, "keep smiling… Love you, now get along!" he waved and waited till Anjali and Muskan waved at him, he smiled and went away.

"Gosh… she is such a baby!" pause, "my baby…!" he grinned to himself and went back home.

Next few days went by peacefully and Riddhima relaxed around Armaan even more, she was having her cycle and she was accepting his presence around her… he knew how hesitate she felt and he didn't tease or joked about anything which he knew was a sensitive topic for her at this stage. Anyhow, Riddhima was glad at Naina's pamper… too, she took care of her, and on top Naina didn't showed any sign of anger like she had, Riddhima was happy to see Naina – changing back into her mother from Mother-in-law.

Months later, "Riddhima?" Armaan walked in the room, smiling, "Hello…" she stood up, from her chair, kept her glasses on table and hugged him, "how was your day?" she asked, hugging him tightly, wrapping her arms around his neck, "I haven't taken a shower yet…!" he felt her lips on his neck, "so…?" she whispered, "that's not an answer to my previous question," she added, keeping her head over his shoulder, "my day was great jaan… now will you leave me for a second… I am really sweaty… you look fresh – don't get yourself my dirt!" he told her, parting her, but she cling to him even more, and that was surprise to him, "okay….! What's cooking up in this empty brain of yours," he finally parts her away, making her sit on couch, all the while she pouts her lips. And he went to pick up his casual clothes kept on bed, by her. "uff ho..! you tou are never happy! First you say I keep on studying and when I am giving you time even then you think ulta! Ajeeb….. Pagal Vagal tou nahi hou Armaan Malik!" she commented, while adjusting in her seat and wearing her glasses back, Armaan slapped her head from back and went away to washroom.

"Riddhima…?" Armaan calls, as he steps out of washroom, "hmm…" she replied, "let's go out for dinner?" Armaan asked, "Nope…!" she replied, reading her book, concentrate. "Okay… for a walk?" he asked, settling on bed, he combed his hair through his hands, only. "Nope…!" she replied, frowning. "Kyun? It will be for an hour only…!" he asked walking up to her, "Armaan… my papers are starting… from tomorrow I can't come!" she replied, frowning. Hearing her phone buzz the alarm… "oh god, its 7! Dad must be waiting…" Riddhima threw her glasses on table and walked out of the room, Armaan frowned and looks at the book, twist his nose in agony and walk out of the room.

Getting down stairs, he saw Riddhima hugging her parents, Shahank and Padma, "sorry Papa, mama… i didn't forget you two… par you know studies and then at home… I don't get much time for myself…" Riddhima told. "tou leave studies na… Riddhima, what will you do…? By this studying and all…!" Padma make her sit down, beside her. "mama…" Riddhima looks away, disappointingly, "aur nahi tou kya…! I want to see your and Armaan's child… bas…" Padma spoke,

MAMAA! Riddhima wanted to shout but couldn't, Armaan giggled along with everyone, while Riddhima got up and excused herself. While making tea for everyone she cursed Armaan for joining everyone and making fun of her. "Riddhima…" Armaan walks in, "Baat mat karo!" she replied back, angrily, "aree why am I being taken wrong…! It is your mom who asked for a grandchild! Not my mom okay!" He walks upto her and hug her from behind, "ohhoo… and why were you laughing… couldn't you say that you didn't need one! Now…" she spoke lightly, with a slight shyness, "who said, I don't need one… I need a dozen madam." He replied and chuckled at her shock face, "What? Par Armaan… my studies… aur your company… we working together…" she stammered, getting out of his hug she stared at him, "matlb you ok with dozen kids… theek hai" Armaan asked, first, "Armaaan! Stop talking rubbish what am i… a machine?" she asked, angrily, "No… I mean yes…, no I mean you are women… and women produce kid…" He teased, "Shut up Armaan answer what I have been asking before," she kept her hands on her hips, in anger, "obviously…. Riddhima after you complete your studies… not before you turn more responsible too Kids are not joke… and I know this,..!" he kissed her cheek, "and you know…. For baby… we have to do a lot of work… a hug or kiss won't produce a child in your womb…!" he commented, "oh here the jerkkk go again to his so-not-funny jokes!" she rolled her eyes, "Get away from my side!" she pushed him from her tiny palm while laughed, "ullu…! Ghadha! Cheapest guy…! Disgusting dog." She muttered, "you call your husband a dog let me tell this to your dad and ask him what has he taught you!" he walk in kitchen again, "don't you dare bring dad in between!" she pointed her finger at him, "I will! I will! and I will" he tried to bite her finger every time he said I will, "Urggghhh!" she groaned and walk away while guiding a young giggling girl servant with a tray, Armaan laughed and went out after her.

Hearing her phone buzz, she picked it up, in front of everyone, "Hello, Rohit…" she spoke on phone, "oh yes, I remember, about the presentation – I will compile it by night and send you mail by 12… don't worry I am with you in it – you don't have to be nervous, everything will be fine… yes I will come an hour early tomorrow, okay… I am with family… okay… bye… yea cya…" she spoke, and hung up, she saw Padma and Armaan looking up at her, "I have a presentation tomorrow…" she replied, while looking at Armaan. He looks away, a jealous factor approached his soul, he thought something and asked everyone to have dinner all together, Riddhima passed a confused smile to him, and then mingled up with others, but somewhere she knew he was thinking something, but what?

"Riddhima beta, how long is this course?" Shahank asked, "papa, I have finals in this month – and then I will get a summer off – tou I will pick up courses and wind up before two years" Riddhima told her plan, "Aree… Armaan and Rahul did this two!" Naina shared her children education. "achaw…" Riddhima looks up at naina, thoughtfully. "tou Armaan? How many subjects can I take in summers…" Riddhima looks at Armaan, "oh yes, I took 4…. But I would prefer you to take minimum subjects at your own ease…" Armaan replied, while settling for food with everyone taking up their respective seats, "no I will take 4 subjects, also!" Riddhima sat beside Armaan, smiling at Billy, who was showing her a thumbs up and she proudly smiled at Billy back more. "Armaan is right, Riddhima… you know summer is off short period soo it gets tough to complete with good numbers," Naina stepped in, "Par mom… I want to… I will handle it!" Riddhima argued, pouting her lips, "okay, leave it mom… let her decide…!" Armaan smiled at her cute expression, "Thank you Armaan!" she whispered, and he nodded and ate his food.

"Shahank… how is your work going?" Billy asked, "oh its going great… worlds knowing as I am now official relative to Malik family… what else do I need now… my business is at top!" Shahank told, Riddhima looks down, being their daughter – she felt shameful at her parents, who acted so greedy at this moment… "That's great Shahank… you always wanted this…" Billy replied, taking shahank's happiness in good spirit… "Excuse me…" Riddhima cleared her face with napkin and went out, to kitchen… "Rid…" Armaan tried to hold her hand, he knew the reason and he didn't wanted this for sure, he knew she had a sensitive mind and she Will take it over her heart and make it a matter of self respect. "excuse me…" Armaan smiled and went after her in kitchen, "uhmm… Padma… why don't you join me at my kitty party, you will enjoy… do come someday okay!" Naina changed the atmosphere, as she saw Shahank frowning and looking down his food, he knew what her daughter thought and that always angered him, he didn't like that fact that her daughter was coming in between his success… "uhmm I will Naina… do inform me next time about the timing and all…" Padma replied, happily…

"Chodo na Riddhima…" Armaan said, while she came out of washroom, wearing a loose trouser and a loose shirt that fell off her one shoulder, "Armaan I am busy stop disturbing me… how many times do I have to repeat this!" she replied, in calm but irritating voice, she settle down with his laptop – and began to work on her presentation, "why are you getting pissed off at me… here I am trying to soothe you out and you showing me cold shoulder. Its okay Riddhima… I understand you feel bad about your parents behavior … let it go, few things don't change, you don't have to be upset about it!" he kept a hand over her shoulder from behind. "hogaya!" she looks back at him angrily… "If you can give me permission tou I can study," she added, Armaan looks at her and their eyes fell on the name prompting up on her mobile, 'Rohail', She picks it up, "Hello Rohail, yes… I am doing that only… I will mail you with in 15mins, yes…uhmm," Riddhima wrote the points Rohail said related to presentation, Armaan walks away to washroom to change, angrily.

She was shutting off her laptop when Armaan walkout after a long time from washroom. She sighed, when she saw him angrily walking to bed without looking at her once, - she settles the light to dim and set down on bed beside him. Noticing his back at her, she sighed, and acknowledge the fact that she had done wrong by talking to him in such a manner, she felt guilty, and realized that it was not his fault – her parents were wrong… may be he is right I should ignore few things, she thought…. "Armaan…" she calls him, not getting any response she kept a hand over his shoulder, and shook him, "Armaan…" she spoke really softly, "let me sleep!" he replied angrily, maintaining his back at her. "I am sorry Armaan… I was upset…. I felt ashamed… in front of your parents… I was feeling really low… I didn't want to talk to anyone… and I am…" Riddhima spoke, "Shut the hell up, I am not interested to listen to you!" he yelled at her, glaring at her, she shrieked in his place and looks up at him with fear, her breathe got high… and she gulped, "i… I am… sorry" she stammering, cupping her own face while she cried, "great… you do this, first you dis respect me… when I get angry… you cry and make me feel I am the worst human being alive!" Armaan threw himself on bed and stared at the ceiling, while she sat with cross leg, still crying…

"Say sorry…" she hit his chest angrily, with her small fist, "huh!" he looks at her and rubbed his bare chest, as it sting with a pain… "you made me cry… say Soorry!" she hit him again, but he held her hand – he cocks his eye brows, in shock, she was beating him and on top her tear streams off her eyes was at its peak, "what are you? Mad ?" he held her wrist, passing her a confused smile, chuckling at her childish, she saw his hand holding onto her wrist tightly, she blushed but went forward and lowered herself on him, "I am sorry… I will never misbehave like this…" she whispered, quivering at his bareness, but still keeping her head in his chest, her free hand fell on his rib side, he exhaled heavenly and she inhaled, "why do you act so immature at times and so practical next minute Riddhima!" he leaves her wrist and circled her waist, banging her delicate body with his, sighing at such closeness, 'never felt so peaceful' he thought, "you make me really worried at times… if you keep such behavior what will you do to our relation…." He complained, "I am sorry Armaan, par in front of you I loose everything – I just say it out to you, whatever my mind and heart has… if I don't, I feel really lonely… and you said, I should share everything… I am sorry about my rudeness, I will try not to do so…" she whispered, crying at his words, "please never leave me… keep trust in our relation… my stupidity will be with you forever… I can't help in that," he chuckled shaking his head in approval, "but you have to keep this relation safe and sound… I don't if I will be able to do so but I am sure of one thing, if I lost you I will die…." She drags her face up in the crook of his neck, and kisses his skin near throat passionately. He sighed, "I promise to keep you with me forever, whether you want or not…" he finally resolved in mind that staying mad at her will do nothing, he turns her around, lowering her on bed – and lowers himself on her, she looks up at him, shock and shy, looking down and at him, after every second… "Ky…a kar rahe hou…" she whispered, gulping. "thodi dera phela you were loving me… and now, I will show you my love…"he whispered, framing her face with her palm he lowered and kissed her lips, she gasped in him but softly probed her lips on his, he was happy to see her taking initative to passionate the kiss, in past it had always been him to use his passion to motivate her and make her response but this time she was responding to him more desirable to motivate him into this… he smiled at her through eyes as their eyes stare at each other for a second, she lowers with blush and stopped to probe her lips on him, that is when he kissed her more, probing her to keep on doing it… she blushed more slightly at slow pace kissed him, soon enough she break her lips out of his, throwing her head on pillow, she kept on taking heavy breathes, while he lowered and pleasured her open nap and shoulder blade… hearing her phone buzz she reached out at it and held it in her palm, but soon she felt his hand clasping her wrist in his palm and locking it with bed, "Armaan… chodo… mera phone…" she wriggled under his hold as he kept on kissing her throat and wetting her nap crook up to her ear lobe, "no… this is my time… of the.. day!" he whispered kissing her more passionately, she arched her head back while exhaling deep, "Please… Armaan, important… phone hoga…" she moved a free hand of her in his fluffy hairs, he sighed and left her wrist and crawled his hand to her side of waist… "hello… uhmm, Rohail… haan… okay, yes you can edit… the font… of presentation.." Riddhima tried her best to have control on her voice. Armaan grip grew tight when he heard that name; he pulls her shirt up from her waist and rubbed his bare fingers on her waist… she gasped, and tried to push him away by pulling her body up but he held on to her skin tight, "I will talk to you in morning!" she hung up, without waiting for his response, "Armaan…!" she threw her phone away, and moved her hands down and tried to get herself free from his hold. "chodo na Armaan! Kya kar rahe hou!" she said, telling him, it was too much, for now…

"why does he call so much!" Armaan looks up at her, frowning at her, still keeping his hands over her bare skin…. She was breathing heavly… her chest flowed up and down, in an unsteady manner, "I am working with him… he is a nice guy!" she replied, and that is when she felt his finger nails on her waist,, "Armaan… you are tickling me!" she withered in his hold, "huh… nice my foot… tell him not to call and be in university only… doesn't he know… you are my wife!" Armaan kiss her lips once more, smacking it loudly before laying on bed and getting her close to him through his arm, "no… I haven't told anyone about my marriage particularly…" she replied, closing her eyes and resting her face on his bare chest, relaxingly… "what? Why?!" he asked, shockingly, getting his hand in her shirt from back, she twisted her hand back and threw his hand out, "don't do that, and no one asked – so I didn't told, does it really matter. Its better they don't know, anyway," she replied, "now what should I get from this… you like calling yourself single… to get boys flirting with you!" he asked, pulling her closer by jerking her body through his arm around her, she looks up naughtly at him and shook her head in yes, "ok now… let me sleep, I have busy schedule tomorrow!" She lowered her head on his chest and hugged, "hmm that's not new, you always are… good night…" he kissed her forehead, 'I have to meet this rohail… why is he after my wife like hell!' he thought and relaxed in her presence…
