Chapter 14
Shivansh's POV
As I reached the office, I called the driver at the mansion to inform me as soon as Ruhh leaves for the office. I am felling so giddy knowing that Ruhh is coming to the office for the first time. After a couple of hours, the driver called me to inform that he has left the mansion for office with Ruhh. I immediately went to the Reception area to wait for Ruhh. Everyone in the office were murmuring seeing me in the reception area waiting for someone, but does it look like I care. Nahhh, its just me and my Ruhh against the world.
Yeah, I know what you guys are thinking that I have accepted that I love her, have started showing my love through action then why am I not confessing it. I will do that as well, but I want to plan a nice romantic gesture for my Ruhh. We have slowly started getting to know each other as well. Yeah yeah, we are married and getting to know each other should have been before marriage but who cares. Whatever, my Ruhh is here, let me go.
As soon as Ruhh stepped down the car, I went to her. She was shocked to see me there.
"Aap?" Ruhh asked innocently.
"Mera office hai toh main hi milunga na Ruhh. Kisi aur se milna tha kya?" I teased her but her faced paled at my words.
"N-nahi, m-main kisi ko jaanti b-bhi nahi, sachhi." With that she pinched her neck as a sign of promise with a bit scared expression.
"Kya ho gaya Ruhh, main toh mazak kar raha tha. Tum itna gabhra kyu gai?" I asked her placing a comforting hand on her shoulder. She shook her head in no, when I held her hand and took her in the office.
I asked Yug, my PA to call all the office staff in the conference hall on 10th floor after 1 hour and took Ruhh to my cabin.
As we entered the private lift, I pressed 14 and turned to Ruhh.
"Aapki office toh kitni badi hai. Aur yeh kitni sundar bhi hai. Aap yaha kya kaam karte hai?" She asked me while she was in awe of the office building.
"Ruhh, main yaha ka CEO huh." I replied her but her eyebrows forrowed and she asked,"Woh kya hote hai?"
How can she not know what is CEO? I have noticed that she does not know quite a lot of things which are known to almost all people.
I came out of the thoughts and answered her patiently,"Ruhh, CEO matlab Chief Executive Officer. Tum aisa keh sakti ho ki yeh pura office main hi chalata hu. Boss hu main yaha ka Ruhh." I chuckled at the end seeing her cute expressions. Her eyes were wide open and her mouth was turned into a pout.
"Boss...waah." Ruhh replied in a awe.
We soon reached 14th floor and I took her to the cabin. As we reached my cabin, she saw the nameplate of mine on the side of gate.
"SHIVANSH SINGH RATHORE
CEO "
Ruhh gently touched the nameplate and then entered the cabin. She then kept the lunchbox she had brought with her on the table and turned to me.
"Aap yaha pe kya karte hai? Aap boss hai toh toh sab aapki baat maan kar kaam karte honge na. Aapko bohot kaam karna padta hai?"
I then explained everything about my work to her and then asked her about having lunch.

Author's POV
"Lunch kar lete hai Ruhh." Shivansh told Ruhanika motioning her to take the seat on sofa.
As Ruhanika unboxed the food the delicious and spicy aroma of Pav-bhaji filled the air.
"Ruh, yeh sab..." Shivansh asked shocked as he was not able to grasp that someone can make his favourite food. That were his parents who used to make him his favourite food and fed him with love. After his parents left, he was deprieved from this, but today Ruhanika had done this. They don't speak but they do love each other a lot and this can be seen in their gestures towards each other.
"Ji yeh aapki man pasand teekhi si pavbhaji aur iske baad aapke liye ek aur surprise bhi hai." Ruhanika uttered the last part in a hushed tone, as if its a secret.
Shivansh's eyes got filled with unshed tears and he hugged Ruhanika mumbling thankyou.
"Chaliye chaliye, khana thanda ho jaayega."
Shivansh nodded and had a first bite.
"Umm, Ruhh yeh toh kitni tasty hai. Ammi k haatho k khane ki yaad aa gai."
"Main khush hun ki aapko achha laga. Main aapki Ammi jaisa toh nahi bana sakti par maine koshish ki hai."
"Yeh bohot achha hai Ruhh, tum bhi khao na."
"Nahi nahi, aap kha lijiye main ghar jaake kha lungi."
"Arey par ismein hai toh dono jitna."
"Woh aapko kam na pade isiliye mai zyada leke aai thi, bach jayega toh ghar le jaungi wapis se."
"Arey bohot hai yeh dono k liye, chalo kha lo." While saying this, he forwarded a bite to Ruhanika.
Ruhanika was stunned for a second as for as long as she could remember, no one had fed her with their hands. With tears simmering in her beautiful brown eyes, she took the bite from Shivansh's hand.
Shivansh noticed the tears brewing in her eyes but not spilling through those brown drops of coffee, he ever so gently asked, "Kya ho gaya Ruhh? Ro kyun rahi ho?"
Ruhanika timidly replied, "Mujhe aaj tak kisi ne apne haatho se khana nahi khilaya."
"Main khila deta hu. I promise main tumhe jab tum chaho apne haatho se khilaunga."
With that he fed both himself and his Ruhh. After they were done, Shivansh asked Ruhanika about the surprise to which she took out a box out of the bag. As Shivansh opened the box, there it was, his favourite sweet-Moong daal ka halwa.
"Ruhh, yeh mere liye?"
"Ji."
Shivansh thanked her and quickly indulged in his food, feeding Ruhanika along.
After completing all these,
"Ruhh, chalo mere saath."
"Ji."
"Puchogi nahi kaha?"
Ruhanika shook her head with a smile.
Shivansh just nodded at her and took her hand and started walking. Shivansh led her to the conference room. Ruhanika clutched Shivansh's hand tighter in fear.
"Ruhh, relax bachhe, yeh sab humare office mein kaam karte hai toh main tumhe inse milvane aaya hu."
Ruhanika nodded still clutching his hand and shifting behind him as to hide herself.
"Good Afternoon everyone. Aap sabko yaha bulane ka aaj ek hi motto hai ki main aap sabko meri wife se introduce kawana chahta tha."
Just as Shivansh said this, low murmurs started among staff.
"So, here she is guys, meri wife - Ruhanika." Just as Shivansh said this Ruhanika tugged at the sleeve of his blazer to get his attention.
"Bolo Ruhh"
To which Ruhanika replied,"Mrs. Ruhanika Shivansh Rajvansh kahiye na. Mera pura naam kahiye na sabko aap." with a proud glint in her eyes.
Shivansh was taken aback by her request but still obliged.
"Sorry guys, let me reintroduce her. Meri wife, meri sabse pyaari Mrs. Ruhanika Shivansh Rajvansh. She should be given the same respect as me and I will not tolerate any misbehaviour towards her and no talking behind back, If I get to know any of these, then your termination letter will be given to you all by Yug. Thank you. Disperse."
With the Shivansh brought Ruhanika back to his cabin.

Shivansh's POV
The way Ruhh asked me to correct myself and introduce her with my name attached to her, I felt a sense of satisfaction. Maybe she will stay by my side and won't leave me midway.
As we came to my cabin, I decieded that Ruhh deserves to know what I feel for her. She should know the place she holds in my heart- forget it - she is my damn heart. God!!! I just Love her so much.
I will take her out tonight and then I will tell her my feelings. Yess!!!
Aftter entering the cabin, I turned to her and spoke,"Thik ho na tum?"
She just nodded to my question. I made her sit on the couch and,
"Ruhh, tum mere saath raat ko bahar chalogi?"
She hesitated to answer my question, so I added.
"Agar nahi jaana toh koi baat nahi, hum phir kabhi chalenge jaana."
To which she looked in my eyes and then again lowered them and replied,"Ji hum kal chal sakte hai, agar aapko thik lage toh?"
"Bilkul Ruhh. Waise tum mujhe bataogi ki tumhe aaj kyun nahi jaana? Kya tumhari tabiyat thik nahi hai?"
To which she quickly shook her head and spoke,"Nahi. Main bilkul thik hu, par-"
She was hesitant to reply me so I quickly interwined and spoke,"Its OK Ruhh, jab tumhe thik lage tab batana."
She nodded and spoke,"Kya ab main ghar jau?"
"Ha, chalo tumhe car tak chhod du."
Then I dropped her to the car ,instructed the driver to safely drop her and asked her to call me once she reached mansion.
"Ji woh mere pass aapka number nahi hai."
She did not have my number so I gave it to her.
Yes guys, I have her number. I took it from Aaru.
And she left.
