••••••••••••••••••••

Reyansh is standing at the door of Khanna house and Neil welcomes him warmly by hugging him.

And while Aaira was a little surprised to see this scene, she obviously knows that her father has accepted Reyansh as his son but she is surprised to see her father suddenly showing so much love for Reyansh.

Meanwhile the rest of the family, Avni and Neil's parents smile seeing this scene that after a short gap Reyansh is here again and Neil is meeting him so nicely.

After accepting defeat in front of her father last night, Aaira gets ready to go to office with Reyansh on her father's words and that is why Reyansh is here.

And after meeting everyone, the family does not take much time of Reyansh and Aaira else they would get late that's why everyone says bye to both of them and after saying bye to everyone, Aaira Reyansh comes out of the house.

Reyansh opens the car door for Aaira but at the same time he notices that she does not look very happy to see him and she is not saying anything either, but then after thinking something, he smiles with sadness and shakes off those thoughts and sits inside the car and heads towards their office.

🦋🦋

There is silence between the two on the way to the office, however Reyansh has his own reasons for not saying anything, So Aaira also has her own reasons for keeping quiet.

But Aaira is a bit shocked to see Reyansh that he is also not taking the initiative to talk, but still she chooses to stay quiet, not to question him on this, because according to her, the mistake she has made,After the way she has made him upset, she has lost all rights over him; she has no right to complain to him or ask him any questions.

She doesn't understand why he is with her? She is not even worthy of him.

Although it is his generosity that he forgave her but she is not able to forgive herself.

She doesn't deserve this kind of good person, he deserves someone better than her.

And these are the thoughts running through her mind and these thoughts are the reason for her silence.

Soon both of them reach the office where Reyansh stops the car outside the office building.

And still seeing Reyansh not saying anything, Aaira is about to open the door to get out of the car but before she can do anything, Reyansh stops her by holding her wrist, upon which she looks at him, but still in silence.

Reyansh looks at her and their eyes meet and Reyansh is able to understand very well by looking into her eyes that as much as she is quiet at this moment, there is as much noise inside her which needs to be brought out, otherwise both of them will remain like this and things will keep getting worse between them.

Yesterday things were almost okay between them but maybe he was wrong, things are not okay between them, both talked, both came closer but her pain did not go away and he failed to notice this and he realized this today when he observed her behavior carefully, there is something going on inside her that she is unable to express to him, but he can no longer tolerate this silence between them nor can he tolerate her this behavior.

Well he knows she will take time to get back to normal but no, he can't wait to see his chirpy Aaira happy around him again and smiling from the heart.

" I'm sorry." Breaking the silence between them, Reyansh says to which Aaira looks at him confused as to why he is saying sorry to her.

" Forgive me but please don't be angry with me like this." He says to which she looks at him.

" I am not angry." she says to which he looks at her

"If you are not angry then why are you not talking....?" he asks to which she looks at him

And on this she remains silent again which hurts him.

He unbuckles his seatbelt, turns fully towards her and cups her face as she looks at him.

" Aaira, we have faced much more awkward moments than this where we never talked to each other, then this is nothing what has happened between us in the last two days." Reyansh says

" What happened 2 days ago was the worst moment for me, I have never felt such feelings as I have felt in the last 2 days. I am feeling terrible right now." Finally she speaks on which he looks at her

" And now I can't fake being happy because you know I can't forget things easily." She says to which Reyansh looks at her, obviously who would know this better than him that she doesn't forget things easily and quickly.

Few months ago She forgot his childhood mistake and the misunderstanding they had in school and became friends again, but all this again made things worse between them.

" I can't get over the guilt of the things I've done. I can't forget the way I treated you and Papa.

Although you and Papa have forgiven me but I am not worthy of that forgiveness, I am not worthy of anyone's love." She says, on which he sighs

" Let us decide what you are worthy of and what you are not worthy of." Reyansh says

" No, as selfish as I am, I don't deserve anyone's selfless love." She says this to which he gets a little shocked, what nonsense is she talking about but before he could say anything, Aaira continues

" And that's why I've thought a lot and decided that we really should part ways. you deserve a much better girl than me....I....I...." She is unable to say anything further as her throat gets choked and she looks down where tears start to flow from her eyes.

And on hearing this, Reyansh looks at her silently, he feels bad to see her crying like this but at this time, he just keeps himself calm.

Well his biggest fear was Neil, and now that he has agreed to their relationship, he is not going to leave her for any reason.

Even if she wanted to, he wouldn't leave her.

After a few moments of silence, Aaira composes herself and looks up at his face.

" I don't think I will be able to give you anything in this relationship, I will not be able to keep you happy, please let's end everything." She says to which he looks at her

" Ok." He just says this to which she looks at him

" Ok let's ends everything for today, but you will come back to me after 2 days when you are in a better mood, right?" He speaks to which she looks at him...She is not joking.

" I am not joking...." she says

" I am not joking either and are you on your periods?" he asks her to which she looks at him weirdly

" No " She answers.

" No, then why are you having so many mood swings ?" He asks her while cupping her face and making an almost crying face, because of her mood swings.

" Look, I agree, I overdid things, maybe I shouldn't have bothered you so much, I should have talked to you." He says to which she looks at him

" Forgive me for making you feel this way, but look, you always get angry at me, so don't I have the right to get angry once?" He asks

" No." She replies, to which he smiles.

" Because you're a fictional boyfriend, and fictional boyfriends don't get angry, but you did..." she says in her babyish voice only to makes him smile with her cuteness

" Achha baba, please forgive me, I will never do this again, please forgive me this time...pleaseeeee...." He says this while folding his hands in front of her to which she looks at him.

" No, now you will not get a chance to get angry anyway because I will not trouble you anymore." She says

" Look, now you are doing too much, I will complain to Papa that you are bothering me." he says in an attempt to brighten her mood to which she looks at him.

" You can do whatever you want, but now let me go." Saying this she is about to get out of the car but Reyansh stops her by holding her hand.

" Before you leave listen to me once, breakup happens from both sides and here there is no breakup because I am not leaving you, Take as much time as you need, but I am not leaving you, remember that." he says to which she looks at him

" Look Aaira stop all this, earlier we were scared that Papa would not agree and now when he is happy with our relation you have started talking about all this...why?

Fights happen in every relationship, so do we break the relationship so easily...?" He asks her, to which she does not give any answer.

" You are thinking too much about things unnecessarily...and you have made just a small mistake, not a crime. You have realized your mistake and that is a big thing but now it is not wise to repeat the mistake again and again to correct that mistake." He says to which she listens to silently.

" Papa loves you a lot and so do I....so don't think that because of any mistake of yours our love for you will decrease or that you are not worthy of that love." He says that which makes her heart feel heavy.

" I know you are not in the right state of mind right now, but don't let that spoil things irreparably." He says to which she presses her lips between her teeth, composing herself.

And This is the thing, this is the thing she doesn't deserve, why is he so good. She thinks.

And There he cups her face and kisses her forehead and then looks into her eyes.

" What are you feeling?" He asks her, to which her body starts going limp

" I want to cry, I don't want to lose you

but I am scared to be with you because I don't want to make a mistake and upset you again, I don't understand anything at this time, what should I do? I really don't understand anything." She finishes saying this when Reyansh pulls her into his arms and she hugs him tightly.

" Cry, cry as much as you want, lighten your heart from your useless thoughts." He says and she actually starts crying feeling guilty about her mistake.

No matter how much her father and Reyansh tell her that she hasn't made any big mistake but hurting these two people, who love her selflessly, is a huge mistake for her.

Reyansh just caresses her hair on her back and she hides her face in his chest and cries, wetting his shirt which he doesn't care about.

He lets her cry because sometimes that helps in order to feel better, and at this time it is important for her to come out of her guilt and if she feels peace by crying then that is also okay.

Whereas, for Aaira, this crying is not helping at this moment but what is helping her is his arms, she is getting fine by crying in his arms.

She is finding solace in his arms.

And he finds so much solace in her arms that Reyansh realises in no time that she has stopped crying but when he slightly moves her face away from his chest to looks at her, a smile comes on his face when he finds her sleeping.

Well, both of them were already late for their office but now he did not feel like waking her up and that is why he forgets the office and focuses all his attention on Aaira and he sits in the same position with Aaira where her face is hidden in his chest and he keeps caressing her hair with his gentle hands so that she can sleep better.

🦋🦋

After a while, Aaira wakes up and with her eyes closed she smells the fragrance that always intoxicates her.

She takes a deep breath of relief and tries to move away from Reyansh without saying anything when she realizes that she might have fallen asleep.

Meanwhile, Reyansh senses her movement and straightens himself when she moves away from him and sits straight on her seat.

Aaira sits straight and looks everywhere except him and seeing her like this he smiles and first of all gives her a bottle of water.

" hmmm..." He says this while giving her a bottle of water, upon which she looks at him and their eyes meet.

Well right now she is feeling really good after finally spending some peaceful moment with him.

She was really feeling lighter somewhere after saying almost all her suppressed things.

She drinks the water and just as she is about to close the lid of the bottle, Reyansh takes the bottle from her and closes the lid himself.

" Are you okay now?" he asks her to which she just nods and he smiles.

" So did you change your mind about breaking up?" He asks her to which she looks at him.

" We are late, we should go inside the office." She says changing the topic to which he smiles.

" Not late, we are already very late, so much so that we might not get entry now, so let us skip the office...and talk about our things." He says to which she looks at him.

" Yes, so I asked, did you change your mind about breaking up?" He asks her this question again, to which she wants to say yes, but the words don't come out of her mouth.

" Am I giving you too much stress, no ?" She asks him to which he looks at her

" So stop giving me stress, give me back my Aaira who used to keep me happy, in whose presence I used to forget all my stress." He says to which she looks at him and he at her and then he cups her face.

" You are not answering my question, that means your answer is no, right? You don't want to break up now." He says this while cupping her face, to which she looks at him

" Well, the thought of breakup has changed, so can I make you feel my love?" He says this while cupping her face with a mischievous smile, making her eyes widen a little.

" I am longing for you." Saying this, he moves his face closer to hers but before he kisses her lips, Aaira turns her face a little, and he looks at her.

But while sighing again, he tries to kiss her lips from the other side but this time also Aaira turns her face to the side

" What happened? Let me kiss you." Aaira really blushes at his words but she composes herself

" "No," she says.

"Why?" he asks.

" Now you will kiss me only when it

rains, this is your punishment." She says this to which he looks at her a little shocked.

Punishment?

Till now she was in the mood to apologize to him, and now giving him punishment?

" Punishment? Till now you were asking for forgiveness and now you are punishing me...you are really a 'Ajooba'." He says only bringing a smile on her face which he was missing

" I was asking for forgiveness, doesn't that mean I will spare you from your punishment?" She says to which he looks at her.

" And why am I being punished?" Reyansh asks

" Hmm, Now whatever I did was my mistake but your mistake was no less...the rain came but you did not come to me even though you knew my wish...and that's why you won't kiss me until the next rain comes..." She says and on one hand he is annoyed with this punishment because he is really longing for her.

But on the other hand, he also smiles deep inside his heart, seeing a glimpse of his chirpy Aaira who rules in their relationship.

And there, before the two could say anything, the silence between them is suddenly broken by a loud thundering cloud, at which Aaira flinches slightly and the very next moment it starts raining, seeing which Aaira gets shocked.

And there an evil smirks comes on Reyansh's face and he also suppresses his laughter seeing her shocked face.

" How is this possible...?" she says as she looks out the window at the rain, thinking about how things always seem to work out in his favor.

" Now anything is possible... waise aap kuch keh rahi thi..." He says to which she turns and looks at him only to see him coming closer to her which makes her eyes widen

" what are you doing?" she says

" My punishment is over, it's raining, you're here, now if there's anything I'm waiting for, it's just the union of our lips." He says and she really blushes at his words.

She doesn't know what to do now.

" Reyansh, we are on the road..." she says as she leans back against the window

"We are in the car." he corrects her, to which she gulps.

"And don't worry, our car is tinted, even the windshield." he says to which she sees him silently just licking her dry lips slightly.

" And also don't worry about what if we get drenched, no, now I am so good that I won't take you out...because even though it is raining, the season is cold, I cannot take any risk with your health but yes, amidst this rain we will definitely fulfill your wish today." He says to which she smiles shyly hearing his caring words.

" And wait, what did you call me, Reyansh?" he says to which she immediately remembers how he had forbidden her from calling him by his full name yesterday.

" Now I have a reason to punish you..." he says to which she looks at him.

She really never feels this shy around him but whenever he's in this mood she gets a heady tingling sensation in her stomach.

She really can't stand his romantic mood and words.

Both of them feel the sound of raindrops falling on the roof of the car and in that silence, the sound of the fast beating of their hearts can be heard.

Their eyes lock with each other and Reyansh leans towards her and his hand cups her face where his thumb stroking her cheek with its soft touch, sending a shiver down her spine.

And he leans more towards her where now their lips are barely touching, both still maintaining eye contact with each other.

They feel their throat and lips getting dry and while wetting them, their lips join together and danced in perfect rhythm.

His arms wrapped around her tightly, pulling her closer to him.

Breaking the kiss for a moment their lips slightly part only to meet again more deeply.

Their breaths mingle, sending shivers down each other's spines.

They kiss each other passionately, dispelling the cold of the rain outside with the warmth of their lips.

" Why does it feel so captivating and magical every time." Touching his forehead against hers, Reyansh says as he slightly parted his lips away from hers and breathes into her mouth.

And Aaira just smiles shyly at his words. There is no doubt that for her too, this moment is magical every time.

The softness of his lips, the freshness of his breath, his masculine scent, everything is magical and enchanting to her.
