--------------------------☆---------------------------- Author's POV

Ruhanika was scared thinking, Shivansh will hit her for her clumsiness as she fell along with the blanket and it got dirty.

Ruhanika,"So-Sorry." While saying this, Ruhanika's eyes got filled with tears.

"Koi baat nahi, lagi toh nahi tumhe?" Shivansh asked while trying to help Ruhanika get up, but hurt flashed through his eyes, when she flinched.

(It's okay, you are not hurt right?)

"Kya hua? Utho?"

(What happened? Get up?)

"Ma-main ise saa-saaf k-kar dungi, so-sorry."

(I'll clean this, sorry.)

"Bhabhi..!!?"

Ruhanika and Shivansh looked towards the door, to see Aarohi, Aarav and Rajveer standing at the door.

"Kya hua bhabhi, aap niche kyun baithe ho?"

(Bhabhi, what happened? Why are you sitting on the floor?)

"Bhabhi, aap ro kyun rahe ho?"

(Bhabhi, why are you crying?)

"Bhabhi, bhai ne gussa kiya kya? How mean bhai, bhabhi ko aap daant kaise sakte ho?"

(Bhabhi, did Bhai scold you? How mean Bhai, how can you scold Bhabhi?)

Rajveer, Aarohi and Aarav asked together, only for Aarav to get smacked on his head and back by Shivansh and Rajveer respectively.

"Subah subah maar khayega kya tu Aarav?" Rajveer asked Aarav who sulked in return.

(Do you want to get beaten in the morning?)

"Abhi maara nahi toh kya kiya aap dono ne?" Aarav asked

(What was that, if you did not just beat me?)

"Chup raho tum log aur yaha kya kar rahe ho?" Shivansh asked them not wanting their talk to get stretched further.

(Shut up you all and what are you doing here?)

"Bhai, hum aapke aur bhabhi k saath room mein nashta karne aaye hai." Aarohi replied while asking the staff to keep breakfast on the table. Shivansh nodded in return.

(Bhai, we have cone here to have breakfast with you both.)

"Par bhai batao toh bhabhi ro kyun rahi hai." As soon as Aarav asked this, hurt and anger flashed in Shivansh's eyes.

(But Bhai, tell us, why is Bhabhi crying?)

He did not say anything and left from there.

"Arey bhai..." Aarav was cut off by Rajveer.

"Bhabhi, aap bataiye, kya hua? Kuch hua hai toh aap humse share kar sakti hai."

(Bhabhi, you say, what happened? If there is something you can share with us.)

Ruhanika was in dilema whether to say or not. What if they also got angry, but they have always been nice and caring to her. Just as Ruhanika was thinking all this, Aarohi spoke," Bhabhi, aap humse share kar sakti hai jo aap chahe. Aap bharosa karte ho na humpe?" Ruhanika nodded.

(Bhabhi, you can share with us. You trust us right?)

"W-woh..." The three of them understood that Ruhanika was still hesitant to talk freely.

(That...)

"Bhabhi, aap mujhe batayengi? Main bhai ko bahar jane kahu?" Aarohi asked Ruhanika, who hesitantly nodded.

(Bhabhi, will you tell me Seeing? Shall I ask Bhai to go out?)

Seeing this, Rajveer and Aarav stepped out of the room and straight away went to Shivansh, who was in the home office.

Aarohi,"Ab bataiye Bhabhi."

(Now tell Bhabhi.)

Ruhanika,"W-woh k-kya Sh-Shiva-anshji mujh-mujhe maa-maarenge? Ma-maine ja-jaan k ye n-niche na-nai gi-giraya. Ma-main is-ise saa-saaf bh-bhi k-kar dungi. T-tum unse k-kehna ma-main s-saaf k-kar d-dungi." She started crying badly while saying so.

(Will Shivanshji hit me? I did not make this fall intentionally. I will wash it as well. Please tell him I will wash it.)

In the study,

Rajveer,"Bhai, kya hua hai? Aap kal aaye aur aaj aap dono k bich yeh?"

(Bhai, what happened? You came yesterday and now this?)

Shivansh,"Ruhanika ko lagta hai ki main uske upar haath uthaunga. Isiliye woh mujhse darti hai."

(Ruhanika thinks that I will hit her. Which is why she is scared of me.)

Aarav,"Whattt!!"

Shivansh nodded.

Rajveer,"Bhai, aisa kuch hua hoga jisse Bhabhi ko aisa lagta hai."

(Bhai, there must be something which ked to Bhabhi's thinking.)

Aarav,"Bhai ho sakta hai Bhabhi k saath pehle aisa hua ho? Mujhe Aaru keh rahi thi k Bhabhi k ghar pe jo dikhta hai aisa hai nahi. Bhabhi waha se aai thi toh unke pass sirf ek suitcase tha bhai, bus utna hi saman. Aur jab Aaru unhe mall le gai thi toh bhi use aisa laga jaise Bhabhi pehli baar mall gai jo, aur yeh Bhabhi ne confirm bhi kiya tha. Aur unke waha toh humare yaha ki tarah shaadi ki rasamein bhi nai hui thi bhai. Hum jab haldi dene gaye the, tab bhabhi k haatho mein mehendi bhi nahi thi. Mehendi toh humne lagavai thi mehendi wali bula k aur haldi k time bhi koi nahi tha. Bhabhi ki Maa ne kaha tha unke sar mein dard hai toh woh nahi aayengi. Ho na ho kuch hai jo Bhabhi ne humein bataya nahi."

(Bhai, it might be that Bhabhi has gone through such a thing. Aaru told me that Bhabhi's family is not what it seems. Bhabhi had brought only 1 suitcase from her house. And when Aaru took Bhabhi to the mall, it was Bhabhi's first time there. And the wedding rituals were also not performed there. During haldi also her family did not participate. There is something which Bhabhi has not told us.)

Shivansh,"Yeh kya keh raha hai tu Aarav? Shaadi tai karne gaye the tab toh woh log bohot ache dikh rahe the?"

(What are you saying Aarav? When we went to fix the marriage, at that time they were behaving so nicely.)

Rajveer,"Bhai aisa bhi toh ho ki woh sirf humein dikhane k liye aisa kar rahe ho aur darwaze k piche Bhabhi k saath kuch aur."

(Bhai, it could have been a show put on for us. And behind the closed doors, they behave differently with Bhabhi.)

Shivansh,"F@$k, meri Ruhh.." while saying this, he ran towards his room.

(F$%k, my Ruhh.)

In the room,

Aarohi was trying to calm Ruhanika but Ruhanika was not able to control herself and was struggling to breathe.

Aarohi was about to call Shivansh when he barged inside the room,"Ruhh.."

He saw that Ruhanika was struggling to breathe and crying profusely, so without wasting time, he hugged her tightly amd started caressing her back and hair to calm her.

Rajveer, Aarav and Aarohi thought of giving them privacy and left the room.

"Shhh, bas Ruhh bas, aise nahi rote, shh shant ho jao Janna, shhhh."

(Shhh, calm down Ruhh, don't cry, shh, calm down Love.)

Shivansh calmed her down and gave her a glass of water.

"Shhhh, ekdum shant, main hoon na tumhare pass, aur I promise main nahi marunga tumhe."

(Shhh, calm down, I am here with you and I promise I will never hit you.)

"P-pak-ka?"

(Promise??)

"Pakka, aur agar mara maine toh tum bhi meri pitai kar dena, hmm"

(Promise, and if I hit you then you beat me, hmm?)

"N-nahi, ma-marte h-hai t-toh bo-bohot d-dukhta h-hai, m-main ka-kabhi aa-aapk-o na-nahi m-marungi."

(No, it hurts when we hit someone, I will never hit you.)

"Achha, baba thik, mat marna, waise bhi main mazak kar rha tha. Koi kisi ko nahi marega hmm? Aur koi tumhe kuch kahe toh tum mujhe batana, thik?"

(Okay, baby, don't hit, anyways I was just kidding. No one is beating anyone, hmm? And if anyone says something to you then you tell me, okay?)

Ruhanika nodded at Shivansh.

"Achha ab fresh hona hai tumhe? Dekho toh chehra apna, ro ro k kaisa ho gaya!"

(Okay, now do you want to freshen up? Whole face is stained with tears.)

Shivansh sat there waiting for her when Ruhanika went to get fresh.

As Ruhanika emerged from the washroom fresh after a shower, Shivansh said," Aao nashta kare?" Ruhanika nodded.

(Shall we have breakfast?)

"Woh, Aaru, Aarav aur Raj bhai?"

"Main bula leta hu."

(I will call them.)

After that, all five of them had breakfast and later on they all left for their work leaving Ruhanika to rest in her room with strict instructions to not leave the room.

A couple of days passed like this and now Ruhanika was completely fine.

Today, Ruhanika was waiting for Shivansh as he had not came back from office and it was 10 already. He usually came back at 9, but today he was late.

Ruhanika was waiting for Shivansh to have dinner as yesterday she came to know that Shivansh many times skipped dinner as he was not interested in eating alone. So, she decided that she will always wait for him for dinner.

In these days, there was no change in their relationship. They stayed like friends but did not talk much.

Ruhanika was sitting in the living area literally doing nothing when she heard car noise. He is home.

She went to open the door, and there he stood.

Shivansh asked,"Tum?"

(You?)

She nodded. He came inside and was going upstairs, probably to the room.

"Main khana laga dun?"

(Shall I serve dinner?)

"Hmm??"

"Khana?"

(Dinner?)

"Thik hai. Main change karke aaya."

(Okay. I'll just change and come.)

Shivansh's POV

Ruhanika was waiting for me!?. The living room was always empty when I came back from office at night. She even asked me for dinner. I was not interested in having dinner but I couldn't say no to her.

I came back after freshening up to see her sitting at the dining table, but there were two plates served.

"Do plates kyun?" I asked out of curiosity.

(Why 2 plates?)

"Um, ek aapke liye aur ek mere liye."

(One for you and one for me.)

"Tumne khana nahi khaya abhi tak?"

(You have not had dinner?)

She did not have dinner. Its almost 11, why has she had not had dinner.

"Nahi."

(No.)

"Kyun?"

(Why?)

"Woh m-main aapka in-intezaar kar rahi thi toh-"

(I was waiting for you so..)

My Ruhh was waiting for me and she also waited to have dinner. Damn, why am I feeling butterflies. Shayad pyaar mein aisa hi hota hai.

(Maybe this happens in love.)

"Intezaar kis liye?"

(Why were you waiting?)

"Woh aapko akele na khana pade khana isiliye. Agar aapko achha nahi laga toh-"

(You don't have to eat alone so. If you don't like it then....)

"Thank you Ruhh....anika" Control Shiv control

Then we had our dinner in peace. It was probably the first time after years that I had dinner in peace.

Agar koi ghar pe intezaar karta ho toh ghar aane ka mann bhi toh hoga na.

(If someone is waiting for you at home and you feel good to come home.)

After dinner, we went to the room. This stubborn girl still does not want to sleep on bed. She insists on sleeping in the window area only. Ek aur try...

(One more try.)

"Ruhanika!?"

"Ji?"

(Yes?)

"Kuch nahi, sone jaa rahi ho?"

(Nothing, are you going to sleep?)

I discarded the idea of asking her to sleep on bed as she has started getting comfortable and I don't want her to get awkward again.

I slept later on.

Author's POV

A little boy around 5 was running in the house when he bumped into a man.

"Papa? Ammi, papa aaye hai."

(Dad? Mom, dad is here.)

His mother who was in her room, came outside and smiled widely seeing the man.

"Aaj Ansh k liye papa chocolates laaye hai."

(Today Ansh's dad has got him chocolates.)

"Thank you Papa."

Just as he was about to take chocolates from the man's hand, he vanished into thin air.

"Papa, papa, Ammi papa kaha gaye?"

(Dad, dad, mom where is dad?)

He turned around to ask his mother about his father but she also vanished into thin air.

"Ammi, Papaaaaaa"

Shivansh woke up sweating. He looked at the time to see it was only 1 o'clock.

"Aap uth gaye?" He flinched at the sound and turned around to see Ruhanika.

(You woke up?)

"Tum jaag rahi ho?"

(You're awake?)

"Ji, woh neend nahi aa rahi thi."

(Yes, I was not sleepy.)

Shivansh nodded at her.

"Aap? Itna paseena? Aap thik hai?"

(You? Sweat? Are you okay?)

"Ha, woh..."

(Yes, actually...)

"Bura sapna?"

(Bad dream?)

Shivansh nodded and got up from the bed. He went to the washroom.

Shivansh's POV

As I came to the washroom, my body gave up. I couldn't control myself and I cried my heart out.

"Aap mujhe chhod k kyun chale gaye Ammi? Kya aap mujhe yaad nahi karte Papa? Mujhe apne saath le jaate aap dono. Aapne mujhe khud se dur kyun kar diya? Yaha koi mujhse pyaar nahi karta. Kisiko mujhse vasta nahi hai Ammi. Main bohot akela hum Ammi. Mujhe apne pass bula lijiye na Papa, please."

(Why did you leave me mom? Don't you miss me dad? You should have taken me with you. Why did you leave me. No one loves me here. I am very lonely mom. Please take me with you Dad, please.)

After some time, I freshened up, took a shower and changed my sweaty clothes and came out. My eyes were red due to crying.

I came out and laid on the bed again. Ruhanika came and sat by my side. She started stroking my hair. And that was it for the dam to break again. I hugged her waist and started crying. I just could not control myself.
