Jeevika was carrying a big flower bouquet when Viren met her halfway through the stairs, he winked and tugged her closer to him as Jeevika frowned and then looked around the now silent house to make sure that they weren't being noticed,

"Viren ji, yeh kya battameezi hai," she struggled to escape his hold unsuccessfully, the bouquet pressed in between them, "you are spoiling the flowers," she complained when he tightened his hold on her,

"Not my fault, you have been so busy with the wedding since the last few days khi you don't have time for me at all," he shook his head when she tried to interrupt, "Na... Now that it's over you are going to come with me," he released her but, grasped her arm when she tried to walk away,

"Okay, I will come, but let me give this to Manvi," she smiled at him sweetly when he pouted,

"Just leave it somewhere here,"

"I can't do that, this was a gift from her friends, and it needs to be put into a vase... and kaha jaa na hai?"

"Out... just you and me... akele akele..." he moved closer to her with a flirty smile when she pushed him back,

"Bahar? That too so early in the morning... It is Manvi's first day here as a bahu... sab kya kahenge?"

"No one is going to say anything, I asked ma already, she said that we deserve a break and we wont be staying out all day, we'll return after lunch..." he moved away, upset with her for spoiling his mood,

"Achcha... okay, don't be upset, you go down, I will give this to Manvi and come in five minutes... okay?" She smiled and walked away when he nodded,

Jeevika who was smiling at her husbands antics, didn't think much when she entered Virat's and Manvi's bedroom which was wide open, Jeevika moved her gaze from the flowers to the newly married couple as soon as she heard Virat taking Manvi's name pleadingly, Manvi who was standing in front of Virat, her back facing him looked pretty angry,

"Oh... I am sorry," Jeevika spoke out quickly, not wanting to let Virat say what he was going to,

"Di..." Manvi's expressions changed completely as she moved forward,

"I am sorry, the door was open and I was thinking..." Jeevika struggled, embarrassed with her intrusion,

"Oh di, let it be, we were just you know," Manvi shrugged, took the bouquet away from Jeevika and ignored Virat completely while she placed it on the bedside cupboard. Virat who was trying to get a reaction from her dropped his shoulders with a sigh.

"Virat..." Jeevika called out for him just as Manvi tugged her arm to walk out of the room,

"Haan bhabi," he moved his gaze from Manvi to Jeevika unwillingly,

"There was a call for you, I have the name and the number written in here," she gave him the small piece of paper as he reached for it with a puzzled face,

"Aap chalo," Manvi pulled Jeevika out of the room as Virat stood staring at the paper.

"Uff... Manvi," Jeevika stopped walking and frowned at Manvi as soon as they reached the hallway,

"What?" Manvi asked and looked around,

"Kya hua? I have been noticing you for the last few days now... you are hiding something from me..." Jeevika held Manvi's hand,

Manvi was going to deny but Viren saved her from the situation by calling out for Jeevika, Jeevika sighed, "Yeh Viren ji bhi na, achcha Manvi, I will be out till lunch agar kuch..."
