"What are you fond of? Instead of business?", Anika asked

"Nothing... Rather than the business, I don't like anything. One thing you know already", Shivaay replied. Anika nodded and remembered the last conversation where Shivaay told her he used to adore cricket games but never asked anyone to let him play with them

"Tomorrow can you take some time out to visit Sahil's school? I need to pay his fees", Anika asked

"Ok I will tell you when I am free", Shivaay replied with a smile

"Don't you feel angry when I give half of my salary to them? It will continue just for a month as Gauri will become a lawyer next month and Daksh will get a job soon but paying Sahil's fees is important", Anika asked and gave reason immediately before he could answer

"Why do you think so? That salary is yours and it is up to you how you want to spend it. I earn enough to give you luxury so if you will give your whole salary to them I will not mind but for once I want you to buy something for yourself too... From my salary", Shivaay said looking into her eyes for an answer. He was finding If she is hesitant or not to spend his money but found none

"Sure I will ", Anika said with a smile and started walking. After talking with him she forgot about Daksh but when they started talking about salary again her mind revolved around Daksh's behaviour, to divert her mind from his thoughts she looked at Shivaay to start any random conversation but he asked to go back

"Let's go back", Shivaay asked to which Anika nodded and they came back and layed to sleep but sleep was far away from Anika's eyes. She was changing sides to get comfortable but when her mind was not in a good state how can she get peace

"Take sleeping pills", Shivaay suggested

"Thanks for the help but I don't need it. And will check daily if you tried eating even one pill then forget you were married", Anika replied sarcastically and turned her face towards him. She hates consuming medicines even for headaches and he is asking her to take those which are poison in her eyes

"I stopped taking them. That was not my routine. I just thought..", Shivaay tried explaining again but Anika placed her hand on his lips to stop him from talking

"I know and I believe you. You know it is harmful and that's enough", Anika takes her hand back awkwardly. She wanted to interrupt him but didn't realise when her hand moved towards his face.

"Don't worry then. Relax", Shivaay said. Anika hummed and closed her eyes to sleep but again her mind reminded her about Daksh. Shivaay noticed Anika's worry lines on her face again so he asked her to place her head on his chest

"You are kidding hana?", Asked Anika to which Shivaay shooked his head and asked her to come

"No I am serious", Shivaay said. Anika nodded and placed her head on his chest. Shivaay wrapped his hands around her waist and asked her to sleep now. Anika looked toward him with a smile and then closed her eyes feeling peace. Right now her mind is blank because of his closeness and hold. She hugged him softly and said

"Thanks for everything ", Anika said and closed her eyes again to try sleeping. She smiled hearing the sound of his heartbeat. That somewhere gave her mental peace. After some time both dozed off.

Shivaay woke up and smiled finding Anika in his arms. He wants her to stay carefree all the time and will try his best. He wants every morning like this. He carefully came out of her hold and kissed her forehead

"I'm sorry but I am doing what I feel is right", Shivaay said and stand up to get ready. After getting ready he drove towards her chawl to go meet Daksh. He parked his car near thier house and knocked on the door
