she was also dying inside to receive that gift from him........
Rohan too gifted her a beautiful saree..

" What's this Rohan" she asked with teary eyes..

" A small gift from me and maa.." he said...

" But i swear it's my selection.." he added to which she chuckled...

She looked at rishi who is trying his maximum to hide his tears...
He plastered a fake smile on his face...

" Ok...baki celebration kal subhah ab jao...jake so jao.." priya said and everybody went to their respective rooms..

Rishi came to room and directly laid down on his sofa...
She streched her hands to stop him...but he laid down by covering himself under blanket...
Shanaya sat down on bed looking at him...
Rishi was crying inside his blanket...
She too settled in her bed covered herself under blanket....that night, both didn't sleep...
.

Next day,
Rishi was getting ready to go to office and Shanaya as usual came getting freshen up...
She placed a small bindi on her forehead and put a bit sindhoor on partition...she looked more beautiful today..
Rishi kept looking at her....she noticed it and she too looked at him...both shared an eyelock...

( Just read by enjoying this beautiful song...it's my fav song...)
But just then Rishi's tie got stuck ...
She saw that through the mirror...she suddenly went near him and started helping him..
He looked at her....

He looked at her

She ... without meeting his eyes , helped him...
She finally got succeeded and she turned to go ... suddenly he hold her wrist...

He moved closer to her and stood dangerously close behind her...
He inhaled her sweet smell and hoarded his head into the crook of her neck....

Shivers ran down through her spines... she felt butterflies flying inside her stomach...
She held her saree tightly...
He placed a small kiss on her neck...
She closed her eyes in sensation...
Tears started rolling down from her eyes..
He slowly wrapped his arms from behind ...his eyes turned moist

He turned her... facing him...
He cupped her face and closed his eyes and pulled her closer to kiss her lips...she too closed her eyes ....
Suddenly, they heard a knock on the door... he opened his eyes..

Shanaya went to open the door ..
Rishi clenched his fist in frustration...
She opened the door to see Rohan

" Bhabhi ..maa told you to visit mandir..bhai she asked you to take her"
Rohan informed and left..
He nodded ...

She went with rishi to mandir...
Both visited mandir and on the way back home rishi suddenly stopped the car..

" What happened?" She asked

" Do you want to go anywhere else..?" He asked

" Umm...well ..i just want to visit my orphanage...i used to visit there on my every birthday.."She said

Without saying anything, he took divertion to her orphanage...on mid way , she bought some chocolates for the children there...after a 15 minutes travel , he stopped the car infront of Gandhi orphanage..

" You know here?" She asked

" Yeah...I often visit here.."he said and she looked at him in astonishment

" Come.." he said opening her door
She got down from the car and walked with him...

Caretaker of the orphanage was an old lady and her name was  Anandi and she's is the one who took care of her also... Shanaya used to call her anandiMaa

" Shanaya beta ... happy birthday..." She said...

She smiled back...

" Aajo....sir aap bhi.." caretaker said

Seeing Shanaya and rishi , some children ran towards her...
She gave that choclate box to them...
Rishi went to children to spend some time with them ...

" Shaadi ke baad ..hum sab ko bhul gaye..abhi aa rahi ho?" Anandi pouted..

" Nahi anandimaa...shaadi ke baad thodi busy ho gayi thi....ab 1 month mein delivery bhi hone wali ho toh.." she replied..

" Ha..beta...god bless you...may i wish your child be healthy...and may be handsome like your husband.." she chuckled and looked at rishi who was talking with children there...

" He also often came here with lots of chocolates and toys...he comes or not..but surely he will send a fixed amount of  money every month here...he is such a kind hearted man....may god bless you both and your child too..." anandi said to which she smiled a bit..

Shanaya too joined him and started spending time with children there...
Rishi just stood there and he couldn't take off his eyes from her....

Anandi saw this and went towards him

" She is such a nice girl...i have been treated her like my own daughter..poor girl struggled a lot to study and get a job in your company...I'm so happy to see her like this...sir please aap meri beti ka khayaal rakna...kabhi uski aankhon se aasu nahi aane denaa"..Anandi said to which he nodded in yes..
.
.
On the way back home,
There was a total silence in the car...
Shanaya cried silently looking to another direction...
Rishi's eyes got wet which blurred his vision suddenly he whipped it...

" Are you happy?" He asked breaking the silence
" Hm.." she hummed

" Are you happy to go to America" he asked

She looked at him with teary eyes...she saw him looking straight emotionless... without any sadness in his face..
She got angry and also  felt pain inside seeing him like that...

" Hmm.." she replied in annoyance even though she was not at all happy

Rishi felt a pang on his chest as if somebody hit hard on his chest...
He thought that she would tell that she is not happy...

" Can i ask you something" she asked

" Yea.." he replied..

" Are you happy about me going to America.." she asked...

Tears came out of his eyes but he controlled it...

" she is happy ...her happiness is more important for me...let her live happily..i want to respect her decision..."he thought to himself and replied

" Hmm..."

She felt her heart got shattered into pieces...she felt her world going upside down...her eyes filled with tears

" Then why are you doing this much for me" she yelled  as she can't control anymore...

" Because.... because..I..."
