Continuation from Chapter 10:
Shivaay is watching from pool garden what Anika is trying to do.He is getting lost because of his thinking every now and then so losing focus on Anika.Now he is determined to back on track.By that time Shivaay was thinking all those,Anika was already into the pool.Shivaay shouts-
S: Ani..Anika,what childishness is this?Come out,I am saying just come out.You will catch cold.
Anika says from the pool-
A: I am having so much fun Shivaay.You too should try.Don't shout,join me,come......Anika starts playing in the water.Standing in the path he says-
S: I am not mad like you to step into cold water that even at night.You just come out Anika.
A: No,I won't.I am searching the moon to send it back in the sky.I won't come until I do that.Where has my moon gone?Hello,where are you?She searches in the water!
Shivaay facepalm on Anika's antics.She says-
A: What are you doing standing there all alone?Come here and help me to find my moon.Plz Shivaay,aaiye na.
S: Am I looking a fool to you?To whom I am talking.Anyway,I won't help you.My answer is No.
A: Kitna nakhre noorjaha ke aap dikha rahe hai Shivaay?She stumbles in the water.
S: Careful Anika.You were saying I am adamant.Look at yourself now.
A: Okay,okay.I am coming out of the pool.She moves towards Shivaay.But this not the way to come out.That is near balcony.Anika puts forward her hand towards Shivaay who is standing in the path-
Pull me out Shivaay.He takes her hand.
Before Shivaay could pull Anika out,Anika pulls down Shivaay into the pool!With a thud Shivaay falls into the pool beside Anika.Few seconds later he surfaces.Coming out the water he looks at Anika,setting his hair-
S: What was that Anika?How....Why did you pull me inside?Now I will definitely catch cold.He sneezes.
A: You have started sneezing already?One day I will make you drench in the rain whole day.Your sneezes will vanish!
S: This is not some kind of joke Anika.And I am very serious.
A: Yeah,yeah.Serious Singh Oberoi!
Shivaay gets shocked hearing that.He recalls Anika saying him "Serious Singh Oberoi",when she was in Oberoi Mansion.
S: Okay enough.Let's move out from here.
But Anika does not let Shivaay come near to her.Instead she starts splashing water on Shivaay.She attacks him sprinkling water,fully.He is trying to save himself using his hands as shield.Anika is really happy in irritating him like that.After much struggle,Shivaay wades through water and grabs Anika.He arm-twists Anika's one hand behind her back.While another one is on his shoulder.Shivaay says-
S: Let me see,how you are going to do that now.
Anika grasps a little on Shivaay's arm twisting.There Shivaay forgets everything looking at Anika's wet face.Water droplets are shining on her face in moonlight.Shivaay gets mesmerized.He leaves Anika's hand.She too retreats her hand.They both are looking at each other.Silence covers them once again.Shivaay moves a little towards Anika.She blinks slowly watching him.
She starts moving backwards with Shivaay advancing towards her,cutting the water.Anika's back touches the stone made path and she stops.She puts her both the hands above water,on the path.Without breaking the eye contact,Shivaay gets close to her.
He raises his hands from the water to remove wet hair strands from Anika's face.Her breathing starts falling quickly.Shivaay puts aside her hair over the shoulder.Raising his left hand he touches Anika's right cheek.He brings his thumb finger near her wet lips which is trembling feeling the touch.
Shivaay looks at Anika's lips feeling all thirsty despite being in water.
"Pee Loon Tere Neelay Neelay Nainon Se Shabnam
Pee Loon Tere Geelay Geelay Hoto Ki Sargam
Pee Loon Hai Peenay Ka Mausam
Tere Sang Ishq Taari Hai
Tere Sang Ik Khumari Hai
Tere Sang Chain Bhi Mujhko
Tere Sang Bekraari Hai
Tere Bin Jee Nahi Lagda,Tere Bin Jee Nahi Sakda
Tujhpe Hai Haare Maine Vaare Do Jahan
Kurban,Meharban,Ke Main Toh Kurban
Sun Le Zara,Tere Kurban.........."
Shivaay slowly traces his both hands on Anika's face then shoulders.Tracing both the shoulders while looking at her lips he covers Anika's hands with his own hands.They are standing very close to each other,face to face.Anika shivers and shrinks under Shivaay's sensuous touch.His breathing is brushing Anika's face.She is looking down with falling breaths.
Entangling both their hands Shivaay pulls her towards him,suddenly.Anika's soft bosom hits Shivaay's strong chest and she is compelled to hold him from the back,using her both hands while Shivaay too holds her from behind.They are in hugging position.
They bring their faces to see each other,slowly.Then Shivaay bends down a little and lifts Anika in his arms.Water splashes around as Shivaay twirls Anika taking her in his arms.They are still looking at each other.Anika says-
A: Will you drop me in the water Shivaay?
S: Shivaay Singh Oberoi chodne ke liye nahi pakadta!
Saying that he starts moving towards balcony to come out of the pool.Coming out,he puts Anika down on the ground.Anika tries to stand but slips because of water.Shivaay catches her hand and takes her in his arms.Their eyes meet once again.
"Jo Tere Sang Laagi Preet Mohe
Rooh Baar Baar Tera Naam Le
Ki Rab Se Hai Maangi Yehi Duaa
Tu Haathon Ki Laqeerien Thaam Le
Chup Hain Baatein
Dil Kaise Bayaan Main Karoon
Tu Hi Kehde
Woh Jo Baat Main Keh Na Sakoon
Ki Sang Tere Paniyon Sa,Paniyon Sa
Paniyon Sa Behta Rahoon
Tu Sunti Rahe Main Kahaniyoon Si Kehta Rahoon
Ki Sang Tere Baadolon Sa,Baadolon Sa
Baadolon Sa Udta Rahoon
Tere EK Ishaare Pe Teri Ore Mudta Rahoon........"
Anika stands on her feet then turns away from Shivaay feeling shy.Biting lips,she moves ahead leaving him behind.Sighing,Shivaay too moves towards the room to change.But he could not enter as glass door is closed from inside with curtains falling over.In a worrying voice,he says-
S: Anika?Anika?Did you lock it?What are you trying to do?Just open it Anika.Are you listening to me?.........
Minutes pass like this.
Anika won't hear anything as glass door is soundproof.Shivaay is quite angry now.
Suddenly curtains raise and door gets opened.Shivaay enters into the room.He is searching Anika.
But where is she?Shivaay hears someone's whistle then turns.
Anika is standing in the middle of the bed.She has worn a black,lacy night gown which is revealing to a great extent without the upper cover,which is lying on the bed,near Anika.Shivaay's eyes get widened watching Anika in that revealing night dress.His cheeks turn red.She is smiling mischievously,looking at Shivaay.......
