Shivaay is watching the girl in his arms forgetting every damn thing.

While he is busy "Taring" her,she takes a deep breath of relief then says smiling-

G:  I was thinking I would open my eyes straight in the hospital.Thank you...........Saying that she makes an effort to relieve herself out of Shivaay's grasp but he seems reluctant and looking lost somewhere,blissfully.With a snap,the girl speaks again-

G:  Hello,where are you?Your job is done now put me down.........On that SSO tightens the grip and answers-

S:  Shivaay Singh Oberoi chodhne ke liye nahi pakadta!

G:  Who is that mahan aatma?Let him do what he wants to do but you put me down,now.

Shivaay chuckles inwardly hearing her words.He thinks whether she did that act of Ignorance intentionally or is she really that Innocent?

S:  Perhaps you are new in India that's why you have no idea who is SSO!

G:  Whatever.....Just put me down.

S:  I won't!

G:  Ajeeb zabardasti hai?What do you think you are doing huh?She says bringing her hand around and Shivaay gets another chance to look at the same bracelet which almost blinded him in the morning,on the road.Suddenly he feels certain thrills in his heart.

The girl is getting impatient on Shivaay's strange behaviour.His soft smiling face is annoying her beyond limit.She makes a last effort-

G:  Listen,don't think you are going to get any medal for keeping on lifting me like that.Let me go-Telling you one last time.Otherwise........

S:  I will let you go but in one condition.

G:  Seriously?

S:  I am very serious.....The girl closes her eyes for few seconds to suppress her volcanic anger then speaks-

G:  Annika,my name is Annika.Happy now?

S:  Just Annika?

A:  Why?Are you in match-making business that you need my whole kundali?


S:  You never know!

A:  Annika Vardhan Trivedi is the name........After hearing that Shivaay looses his grip on Anika and puts her down on the ground.He says forwarding his hand-

S:  And I am your that mahan aatma,Shivaay Singh Oberoi.

Annika looks at Shivaay's hand and feels like breaking it in two halves but refrains that urge somehow!Something about Shivaay has put a rein over her usual explosive interactions and she gets surprised at his "Twisted"gentlemanly behaviour.He was not flirting with her like other boys as she has seen still there was a subtle romantic undertone the way he carried himself till now-Especially his solid easiness and patience while dealing with her.

Anika feels an invisible surge of protectiveness around her in Shivaay's presence.She was watching him without saying anything.Right that moment a cuckoo bird starts its melodious singing and that breaks her trance.She puts her hand in Shivaay's hand then shakes a little and retreats quickly saying-

A:  Nice to meet you Mr. Oberoi.

As she is about to go away finishing her Lady-like duty,Shivaay stops her-

S:  One second......Your mango that you plucked up.It fell here before you.Actually I was busy catching you so could not collect it..............She gives him a deadly glare.Ignoring that Shivaay says-

Um.....Do you really climb on trees?I mean do you know how to climb?

"Yes,of course" comes at the tip of Annika's lips but she decides to tell the truth without knowing why!

A:  No,I don't......This time Shivaay is really surprised.

S:  Then how come you got up in such a big tree?Had not seen any ladder also.You could have injured yourself very badly.If I did not come........Just,just unthinkable.

The warmth of his caring words stirs something deeply buried in Annika's heart.She discards that feeling very quickly then says in a rather quiet tone-

A:  I got in through terrace.I am perfectly all-right now........................Saying that she turns then leaves in a hurried manner.

Like she is escaping getting caught red-handed.Anika vanishes through the enormous iron gate and Shivaay watches her going.This sudden departure leaves a very disturbed feeling in Shivaay.He says in his mind- "What just happened?Why she......."

He looks on.
