Bound By Love [Completed]

shot 15

After they reached home ,Janani had him assemble the swings in the kitchen for the time being

As she pointed out ,its easily portable and could be hanged wherever you want

At the moment she wanted him to hang it in the kitchen

While he and Aadesh were setting the swings ,he saw Janani feeding the children who are happily sitting on their new high chairs

She had placed what seems to be their favourite plates in front of them

Because, like Advi ,Ava too has her favourite plates and cups from today onwards

"Advi ,don't squash your bananas" Janani chided softly cleaning the squishy mushy banana piece from Advi's hands and instead fed him

They had the swings together by the time she was done feeding and then cleaning up the kids ,she slid both of them inside

They have set the swings in such a way that the children would be facing each other

She wound what looked like a music box for each swings and suddenly both the kids were swinging and happy

"Wow.That is amazing" Aadesh said smiling at his nephew and niece

"How come you didn't know about the swings" Janani said shaking her head and Aadesh gaped at her

"Who were we going to ask?? I know nothing about babies" he said sadly and looked at Armaan and added

"And my brother only knows how to make them" Aadesh grinned

"Shut up Addy" Armaan glared at his brother

He doesnt want to think of baby making and Janani together

He had done his best in the last few hours to not think about the color of her lips and the curve of her hips

It's about time he got laid

Once he reached his room he arranged a date for himself with the woman he met at the charity gala two weeks ago

And finally he knows her name.... Lilly

****

Janani was preparing dinner while the kids were sitting in their play yard playing with their new toys

That's when Armaan came into the kitchen all suited up and Janani frowned

"You have a meeting at night too??" She asked

"Do I need your permission to go out now?" He asked back coldly and she shrugged telling him it's not her business

Ever since that moment in the shop he had been very formal and very distant

Not that it's any of her business

"I won't be back for dinner" he said

"I don't remember inviting you" Janani said kneading the dough for parathas

"I have a date" Armaan said and kept looking at her making her frown

"Okay" she said shrugging and saw his lips thinning into a straight line

"I will be late" he said and turned around to walk away

Did he expect her to say something.

It definitely looked like that

"Er...Armaan??" She called out hesitantly

"Yes!!" He turned around and looked at her waiting for her to speak

"All the best???" It came out more like a question and it only made him look more livid

Didn't he want her to say something??

What is her fault now??

He turned on his heels and walked away briskly without even saying a thank you

"Akdu....I wished him best and he couldn't even say a thank you " she muttered grumbly

"What happened?? Why are you talking to yourself??" Aadesh asked walking inside the kitchen

"Your brother is the most impossibly arrogant ,ridiculously unreasonable....-"

"Woah....hold on ,hold on. What did my lovely brother do??" He asked popping a piece of carrot from where they were kept freshly cut

"He told me he is going on a date and looked as if he wanted me to say something. So being a polite woman ,that I'm, I wished him all the best which seemed to have infuriated him further. I'm not a psychic to know what your brother expects me to say" Janani said throwing her hands in the air

"You are really clueless, aren't you??" Aadesh asked looking at the woman in front if him in disbelief

"What do you mean?" She asked

"I really do wonder if you have a dual personality disorder!!" Aadesh mused looking intently at Janani

"Why would you say that?" Janani asked tensing at the implication of what he had said

"The woman we got to know through private investigators and the woman who stands in front me appears to be two different people.I really do find something fishy" Aadesh said waiting for her reaction

"People doesn't always remain the same Aadesh.Circumstances change people and having Advi changed me" Janani said truthfully because having Advi really changed her life

"If you say so" Aadesh said and walked out of the room making Janani breath out in relief

****

Armaan sat across the heavily made up woman in a designer gown talking non stop about her latest shopping trip to Milan ,Italy

"And you know what?? The sales woman was so stunned to see me in the gown.She said she had never seen the gown in a perfect fit on anyone ever" she continued and Armaan stifled groaning out loud

What had possessed him to do this??

Her hair was left open and not a strand was out of place

No doubt she had sprayed as many hairspray as she found

Janani's hair would have been all over the place if she ever let her hair open

The woman had painted her lips a blood red

Janani's lips are naturally pink

A baby cried somewhere in the restaurant and he saw the woman scrunching her nose as if it is a nuisance

"Why do parents brings noisy children to somewhere as sophisticated as this restaurant " she said

If it were Advi ,Janani would have scooped him into her arms and held him close until he is okay

Armaan cursed under his breath

The purpose of this date had been to get over his attraction to Janani

And all he had done so far is compare the woman to Janani and found her lacking

"Er...Jasmine. I think it's time to leave" he said looking pointedly at his wrist watch

"Its Lilly" the woman said ,her smile not slipping away from her face

If it were Janani .....

Okay....you are not going there Armaan!!

What Janani thinks or does is none of your business

The best way to get over her is to ignore her

Out of sight!! Out of mind!!

Armaan had walked the woman towards her apartment and as they approached she had looked up puckering her lips waiting for his kiss

He gave her a perfuctionary kiss on both her cheeks and bid a goodbye that made clear that he wouldn't be in touch anymore
