Riddhima was peacefully sleeping clinging to Vansh who was busy putting ointment on her hands, which has blood due to getting scratched by the metal door.

"Stop it and let me sleep na" Riddhima whinned as Vansh touched the ointment on her wound.

"Don't! Dare you sleep Riddhima. The doctor will be here to check up your head.. don't sleep pleasee" Vansh said to her and kept shaking her so she didn't sleep.

The doctor checked up on Riddhima, assuring no serious injury to her and adviced to come up tomorrow for a tetanus shot. (Injection 🤭)

"Can I sleep now please?" Riddhima asked being very tired.

"Rishika!!" Rishi barged into the room and hugged her tightly, while Riddhima repriocated lazily.

"Are you fine? Did he hurt you somewhere?" Rishi kept asking questions and Vansh who was watching silently, smiled.

"He hurt her? Sounds like a joke after what I saw." Vansh said sitting next to Riddhima in the bed.

"What do you mean?" Rishi asked raising his eyebrow.

"I mean...YOUR dear sister has beaten the hell out of him, she didn't even leave a single place to hurt him. Not even...leave it. She was kicking him so bad that I felt to save him instead of her." Vansh said and giggled while Rishi chuckled looking at Riddhima who smiled.

"So what? I will beat him more if he comes again to me asking to become his wife." Riddhima said angrily while Vansh fisted his hands.

"Let it go now. We are no one to fight with him." Rishi said caressing her head and kissed her forehead.

"Take rest. I will come tomorrow if luckily no one gets a heart attack." Rishi said and the trio chuckled.

Next morning

Riddhima came out of the washroom after taking a nice shower which relaxed her. Vansh was still sleeping on the couch, Riddhima blushed seeing his giant body on that small couch. She slowly tip toes to him and sat on her knees ruffling his hairs.

"Good morning Vansh. Wake up now." Riddhima said he held his hand and kissed her knuckles.

"Now it's a good morning" Vansh said opening his eyes slowly, his messy hairs and the lazy smile made her heart flutter.

"Don't stare sweetheart. We have to leave also." Vansh said and she stood up abruptly.

"Why didn't you go back home?" Riddhima asked him sadly, she didn't want to break his family because of her.

"I went na...but when I returned you were nowhere to be seen." Vansh said back hugging her. She smiled.

"Really na?" Riddhima turned around playing with buttons of his shirt.

"Yes... let's go now." Vansh said.

"Where?" Riddhima asked.

"Home sweet home. Ma wants to see you. Please." Vansh nicely blackmailed her using 'Ma' in between. Riddhima nodded.

"Thank God you are fine Riddhima. I was so scared when you left abruptly." Uma said making her sit on the couch.

"I am sorry Ma. But I am fine." Riddhima said smiling.

"Hmm...all can see" Vansh said pointing her head and Uma smiled.
