The next 3 days went the same where they were not getting time for each other as sometimes he was busy and sometimes she was. Whenever they used to talk someone used to disturb them which irked him. They just shared a simple wish in 3 days, not any conversation which was affecting both of them.

In the morning Anika woke up early and found him sleeping. She sat on the bed and ruffled his hair, she want to ask about his day and his business but because of work, she is unable to manage anything. She know if she started talking with him then she will be late. Shivaay opened his eyes feeling her hand on his hair and noticed Anika staring at him

"Good morning", Shivaay wished, Anika took her hand back and wished him good morning. She was about to go and get ready when Shivaay pulled her back. Anika fell over him because of his pull, one hand was holding his shoulder and another hand was holding the edge of the bed for support.

"Why Are you ignoring me?", He asked, He had enough now, daily after wishing him morning she ignore him like he doesn't exist which he will not let her do today.

"When? And why do you think so I will?", Anika asked, she want to o away but his hold on her waist and especially his question stopped her

"Then why were you going?", Shivaay asked

"For work", Anika replied softly and rubbed her hand on his cheeks softly. She loves to touch his face and fact that only she has that right. Shivaay removed her hand from his face and held her hand.

"That I know but can't you just sit here and talk?", he asked raising his voice being frustrated from the past few days. He noticed her talking with other family members after coming back but whenever he tried to have a conversation she ignored him.

"I wish I could", Anika replied with a sad sigh, she looked at her hand which he was holding. She also wants to stay happy with him but because of work she is always late to the office, she doesn't want him to be the reason for her lost job or to use his surname to save her job

"I have to visit one village daily before reaching office Shivaay. I am planning someone's wedding there and it is very difficult to manage in the village. For the past few days, I was trying to talk with you but every time I was unable to. In the village, nothing reaches on time. Villagers freak out with a little mistake. I need to do everything perfectly there and that's what my work is", Anika said sadly, she won't want to pull herself away from him and leave again but for work, she has to. She took this decision and can't back off now. She has to watch her career too before she never found that difficult to manage things because her life was limited with few members of the family but now she has a big family and especially one person who works hard the whole day and in return just asked for time.

"Take a holiday then", Shivaay suggested. Anika shooked her head as she can't even take holiday because she joined the new office a few days ago and no boss will allow someone to take holidays like her

"Really. Do you think I can leave my job when I just started and I can't skip one ritual there? When only two days are left including today", Anika replied in hope that Shivaay will understand and will give her two more days when she heard his desperate voice

"You can Take one holiday in a month", Shivaay said stating fact. Anika sighed because she understood from his replies that he will not stop till she agree with his demand.

"Ok but I will talk with you after coming back from the village", Anika told because even if she decided to take leave from the office, she can't leave the village work otherwise they will make it an issue. Moreover, they can't handle anything which she understood while working there

"Can't I come with you?", Shivaay asked.

"If you are comfortable then you can", Anika replied and called her boss. Shivaay turned the speaker on and gestured for her to continue. Anika took a long breath to get the confidence to talk.
