Shivaay stepped back as he heard another knock on the door. He opened door to see the waiter standing with their lunch. He ordered daal roti as this time he was not in a mood to eat any fast food. He placed Tray on the table and noticed Anika looking at her hands with a blush
"Hope you don't mind..or regret..", Shivaay asked to which Anika shooked her head and looked at him
"I don't ", Anika replied and hugged him. She never felt like this for anyone, she meet many men in her life but nobody ever gave her that comfort he give her every time. She feel this like a dream, she never thought that she will ever let any men touch her
"Have lunch ", Shivaay said and broke the hug. Anika nodded and they both started to eat. After finishing lunch, when Anika went to wash her hands, she noticed a family pic which was of their marriage including every member of the family who was present
"Shivaay I wonder how can Daksh change this much... I mean after marriage he doesn't care if I am hurt or not. I don't blame Priyanka for this but he should have at least tried asking forgiveness", Anika said in a low voice.
"Why are you thinking about him ?", Shivaay asked as he don't want her to think about anything which would spoil her mood. He felt Anika's sadness in her voice
"Because from childhood I lived with them. I cannot stop myself from caring about them. I want to meet them but at the same time, I want to ignore that place. I stopped calling Gauri too because of him. How can he not realise his mistake?", Anika asked and came back towards him. One cannot forget her family members ever, her priority was that family. Even after marriage, she knows her priorities changed but not her heart which always cares for them.
"You can call Gauri but first hear me", he said and sighed because he don't want to hide anything from her now. He doesn't know if he was right by blocking Daksh's number of not but he guessed that it is the main reason Daksh was unable to talk with Anika
"I'm sorry Anika I blocked his mobile number when he called you and I asked him to let you stay happy here", Shivaay told after taking a long breath. Anika was shocked after hearing this information from him, she never thought Shivaay will ever take any decision on behalf of her. She can handle anything but not someone blocking any number from her phone.
"How can you do this Shivaay? I know he said too much but you don't have any right to block his contact. You don't know how much hurt I was that he didn't try asking forgiveness", Anika asked
"Yes, I don't have any right hana? And if he wanted then Anika he could have used Priyanka's number or someone else. He is not a child who isn't aware of technology", Shivaay mocked. Anika felt that he is hurt by her words by his reply but she want to tell him he was not right
"You said you asked him not to talk with me", Anika said
"Yes I said but he should have used his mind. I blocked him for your peace and you are blaming me", Shivaay asked raising his voice. Anika looked aside as she don't want to stretch this fight and argue with him but she want to make him clear that he can't block any contact without asking her
"Because you are wrong here. Will you like it if I start blocking your contacts? If I block Om, Rudra or Priyanka? ", Anika asked
"Why? They didn't insult you", Shivaay told
"Ok but still you should have at least told me. If you say I would have ignored him myself just tell me whom to ignore anytime. There was no need to block his contact Shivaay. I am not a child", Anika said without looking at him realising where this conversation is leading to. She doesn't want to drag this matter even 1 per cent now because she hates seeing him hurt.
"Fine I am wrong", Shivaay said and left from there. Anika looked down with fear and regret because this was not what she wanted to hear. She picked up her mobile phone and unblocked Daksh's contact. She and Daksh fought many times in past too but she never blocked his contact.
She never blocked anyone because there was no need. She stands up as she needs to make him understand her point of view
"I blocked him but rather than fighting with him, she is blaming me", Shivaay said to himself in the lift. After reaching the ground floor he noticed a few of his employees gossiping which Rose his anger. He shouted at top of his voice to shut thier mouths up. After a minute he came out of his office and sat in his car Bonet
As he doesn't have any place in the office where he can stay alone than his cabin. He thought to visit the terrace but then he remembered that at lunchtime few of his employees visit the terrace so he can't get peace. He closed his eyes to control his anger and pain when Anika questioned him. He just thought about her good, not bad. He doesn't want to fight with her, especially when he doesn't know if they can handle fights or not. He fears the word "divorce"
"Shivaay", Anika called him and placed her hand on his shoulder. Shivaay turned towards her and noticed tears again but now he is the reason unlike last time
"Yes", Shivaay asked
"Don't ruin the holiday please", Anika pleased as she have got just one holiday which she thought they will enjoy but nothing goes as per we think
"Leave me alone for some time Anika. Just go", Shivaay said as right now he doesn't want to talk. He doesn't want to give her rude answers
"Ok", Anika said and left from there. Shivaay again closed his eyes thinking that Anika left towards his cabin but he was wrong as Anika left for Oberoi Mansion. Shivaay opened his eyes after a minute and noticed Anika calling autorickshaw. He ran towards her but Anika was unable to notice him and asked the driver to drop her at Oberoi Mansion.
Shivaay ran towards his car and followed her rikshaw, he increased his speed and came in front of the autorickshaw. He came out and asked Anika to sit inside the car in a cold voice. Anika paid the autorickshaw driver and sat inside the car
"If you want to talk then do otherwise let me do whatever I want to", Anika said and looked outside huffing in anger. Shivaay chuckled hearing her.
"Om came with his girlfriend there. So if we will go then we should go together", Shivaay told
"When?", Asked Anika
"In the morning, he said she will stay till evening. But I told them we are busy so nobody called you", Shivaay told reason which cleared Anika's confusion about why nobody told her about her arrival. One question confused her about how Shivaay about them but she kept quiet because she don't want him to question Her.
Shivaay wondered why Anika is not shocked after knowing that Om has a girlfriend

"Hiee Anika bhabhi", shouted Ishana and ran towards Anika when she noticed her. Anika hugged her and greeted her with hii
"You know her?", Shivaay asked
(Part 39❤️)
"Yes vo once they visited a cafe where I was present ", Anika told him
"And you didn't tell me", Shivaay said in a cold voice.
"Because Om asked me to hide this thing from only one person that is you", Anika told him. Shivaay nodded and looked toward Om
"Why Om?", Shivaay questioned Om
"Because Ishana didn't tell about us to her parents. This liar lied to her parents that...I am her orphan friend", Om said glaring at Ishana who hung her head down in regret
"What? Are you mad?", Shivaay shouted angrily
"Shivaay please hear her at least. It's her nature", Anika said and held his hand. Shivaay sighed as he understood he need to control his anger, otherwise, he will ruin relations
"But still why did he ask you to hide this from me? I want that reason", Shivaay asked
"Because Shivaay if I told you then you would have not understood her side and you guys always ask me to marry so what is the grantee that you would have waited till we give a green signal?", Om asked
"Even I married Om. It is not a big deal", Shivaay said
"I am talking about her parents Shivaay. Even if we agree, I know her parents will not. And you don't know her. Every time because of her childish nature she falls into a big problem", Om said eying Ishana who grinned hearing Omkara's reply to Shivaay
"Don't lie Om. It's you who always fall into a big trap", Ishana said
"Bhabhi look who is saying..liar herself", Om said and frowned looking at Ishana
"Bhabhi I always tell the truth right", Ishana asked.
"You both are right", Anika replied and looked towards Shivaay. She wants to tell him that she was given his sware but Om is not leaving him now. Right now she didn't even enjoy their fight as she is sad
"We came here today because she talked with her family members about me but she said that I am not rich but a middle-class boy working in your office", Om told. Shivaay looked toward Ishana shocked by the revelation. He doesn't know why but he feels like she is trapping Om but he could not voice it aloud because Om is happy
"Sorry, Om. I can't tell anyone why I said that but trust me I was not having any option", Ishana said to which Om nodded.
"Bhabhi why are you quiet?", Asked Ishana
"It's nothing like that. You guys were not giving me chance to speak that's why I was quiet", Anika replied without looking at anyone
"I would have understood Om. Don't forget even I was forced to marry so I will never force anyone to marry", Shivaay said and left from there. Om was about to walk behind Shivaay but Anika stopped him and asked him to stay with Ishana
