77. Saraswati comes a day earlier

Next morning, the early sunrise without the cloudy atmosphere woke Mini up, much early in the morning. The breezy and windy weather was very peaceful.

She looked at Neil and saw him sleeping peacefully as his face, undisturbed by the sunlight, was towards Mini. His arms wrapped around her waist, he was holding her kurti from the back of her waist in his fist lightly, and the sun was just rising. As the sunrays fell on his face, his face got disturbed. Mini quickly kept her hand and prevented the sunrays coming on his face. His face relaxed and a peaceful smile crept on his face again. Mini, with her other hand, removed the hair strands coming on his face and adored him sleeping peacefully. 

She saw the brightness of the day was increasing and she covered his face with her dupatta to let him sleep peacefully.

A couple of hours went by and Mini leaned back on the wall with closed eyes and her folded arms close to her, was smiling thinking about their moments together in Delhi as they will have to leave today when she felt Neil moving lightly, tightening his grip on her waist and her kurti at the back. Mini opened her eyes and saw him stretching himself lightly, snuggling to her waist.

Neil opened his eyes and wasn't able to see anything because of the dupatta, but knew that he was holding Mini. He took back his hands and lifted the dupatta from his face. He felt a sudden increase in brightness and blinked his eyes 2-3 times to adjust the brightness and then saw Mini smiling at him.

Mini: (caressing his face) Good Morning Mr Neil Oberoi.

Neil: (smiling brightly) Good Morning Mini Madam.... Yeh dupatta...?

Mini: Tum itna aaram se so rahe the... aur time bhi itna nahi hua tha... to maine socha tumhe sone diya jaaye.... ab patiala tak drive karke bhi to jaana hai na... 

Neil: Thanks... Bahot acchi neend aayi... 

Mini: Good... Ab suno... Aaj se mujhe promise karo... koi kuch bhi kahe... kaisa bhi soche... tumhe farak nahi padna chahiye... aise kisi bhi... sandhu aunty... ya Isha... ya koi bhi... xyz se... tumhe farak nahi padega.

Neil: Hmm... thoda shayad time lagega par... I will make sure ki I won't get affected... Ok?

Mini: Perfect.... Chai piyoge?

Neil: Hmm... Chalo.

Both got up from the mattress and came down. 

After entering the kitchen, Neil again made Mini sit on the platform itself and made the tea while talking to her.

They were enjoying tea together when they heard the door opening. 

Mini: Kisi aur ke paas bhi hai kya keys?

Neil: Sirf Saraswati ke paas hi hai... par vo to kal aane waali thi. 

Just then they saw Saraswati entering and closing the door. 

She turned and saw them in the kitchen.

Neil: Saraswati tum?.... Tum to kal subah pahochne waali thi na?

Saraswati: Ji Baba. Par jaldi aa gaye to maine socha aapko bata du ek baar.... aur waise bhi aapka message mila ki aap ghar aaye hai 7 din ke liye.... to kaam jaldi khatam karke aayi hu... parso jaane wale hai na?

Neil: Ok... Perfect then.... To aaj tum hi breakfast bana dena.... Hum aaj nikalne hi waale hai to late and light breakfast karenge... (turning and looking at Mini) to pohe? (Mini nodded and he turned to Saraswati again) Pohe bana dena.

Saraswati: Ok Baba.

Mini got off from the platform and came to Neil.

Just then, Arya and Keya laughing together, came out of their rooms after getting ready and Mineil adored them running and coming to them.
