Shiv sighed as he walked towards his car after finishing the dinner meeting he had with one of his important clients.
The guard opened the car door and Shiv got into it.
As he scrolled through his mobile phone he saw missed calls from his wife.
His phone was on silent as he was attending the meeting that's why he couldn't attend the calls.
Why had she called him though?
That too 5-6 times?
It might be something important for her to call him more than once.
He decided to call her and know what it was about.
Mumbai,
Iti was sitting with her parents as the trio along with Aashray and Kabir settled in her parents room.
"Aur phir choti maa meine uss ladke ko samjha diya!"Aashray was narrating one of his fights with his classmates while they all listened to him.
"Aapko aisa nhi krna chahiye Aashu"Aayat said but he pouted hearing that.
"Aashu mat boliye!mein ladki thodi hu!Ray boliye chahiye toh"Aashray said and Aayat shook her head at his antics.
"Aur phir....
Iti's phone rang catching everyone's attention because it was late at night and they were curious as to who was calling him this late.
"Tujhe kon call kr raha h iss waqt?"Kabir interrogated her.
"Aapse matlab? zyada bade banne ki koshish mat kijiye,hum aapki badi behen h aap hamare bade bhai nhi h"Iti said making him angry.
"Arre jijosa!!mein baat karunga"Aashray said as he was about to pick up the call but Iti was quick to take it and cut the call.
"Iti!cut kyu kiya call?aapko baat krni chahiye na unse agar unhone aapko call kiya h toh?"Aayat scolded her daughter who pouted at that.
"Humne bhi 5-6 baar call kiya tha,ek baar bhi nhi uthaya unhone,hum bhi nhi uthyenge"Iti said and Aayat shook her head at her childish antics.
"Busy ho sakte h woh beta"Aayat said but Iti shook her head and again the phone started ringing and she again cut the call.
"Attitude toh dekho iska mumma!ek toh Udaipur ke Raja isko call kr rahe h aur yeh h ki bhaav khaa rahi h"Kabir said earning a smack on his head from his father.
"Aap abhi inn sab mamlo mein bolne ke liye bht chote h"Hriday repriminded him making him sulk.
Iti's phone again rang and Iti sighed seeing it.
"Issbaar katiyega mat,jaakr baat kijiye unse"Aayat said sternly and Iti huffed and went about of the room.
"Hello"she heard him as she accepted the call.
Iti didn't say anything in return.
"Iti?aap sunn rahi h?"He again asked.
"Ji"Iti said grudgingly.
"Sorry,aapne itni baar call kiya tha pr hum utha nhi paaye,hum ek important meeting mein the"He said.
"Okay"Iti said.
"Aap naraz h kya iss bast ko lekr?isliye phone cut kr rahi thi kya hamara?"He asked.
"Hame aapse baat nhi krni h"Iti said and heard his manly chuckle.
She got even more angry hearing him chuckle at her.
What was there to laugh?
"Hum busy the Iti,wrna utha lete aapka call"He said.
"Hum agar 5-6 baar call kiya hoga toh ho sakta h na kuch important ho Shiv?"Iti finally complained and he sighed.
"Pr phone silent pr tha Iti"He said.
"Thik h phir"Iti said.
"Acha bataiye baat kya thi?"He asked sensing she was still mad at him for not accepting her calls.
"Kuch nhi,ho gaya hamara kaam"Iti said.
What was the use of telling him now when what she wanted was done?
"Iti"Shiv said but she kept quiet.
"Humne jaan bhujkr toh kiya nhi tha na?hum busy the"Shiv said but she still kept quiet.
"Aap kuch bolengi bhi ab?"He asked but still got no response from her.
"Thik h,rahiye aap gussa,hum rakh rahe h phone"Shiv said and cut the call making her more angry.
If he knew she was mad instead of pacifying her he just ended the call.
Great!
She wasn't going to talk to him now!
And wasn't even going to accept his calls!
She immediately went and laid down on her bed still thinking about what just happened.
The door of her bedroom opened and her mother walked in.
"Baat kr li aapne unse?"Aayat asked and Iti nodded grudgingly.
"Iti beta,itni si baat pr itna gussa nhi krte,woh busy bhi toh ho sakte the na uss waqt"Aayat said as she sat beside her and made her understand as if she was a child.
"Pr kuch emergency hui hoti toh?hum toh call hi krte reh jaatein aur woh uthate hi nhi"Iti said and Aayat smiled at her angry self.
"Acha thik h na,jese hi free huye unhone aapko call kiya na?"Aayat asked and Iti shook her head at that.
"Aur hamare muh pr cut bhi kr diya!hum nhi uthane wale ab unka call,aap mat kahiyega ab humse dubara unka call uthane ke liye"Iti said.
"Itna kyu gussa kr rahi h aap?"Aayat couldn't help but ask.
"Kyuki woh waha h,aur unhone apne guards ko yaha rakh diya h jo ki hamari baat bhi nhi maante h!unka staff hamesha aisa krta h,unke orders ko follow krne ke chakkar mein hamari baat nhi maante!unhe batana tha hame ki iss cheez ko change kare,pr woh toh phone hi nhi utha rahe the hamara!upar se papa ne bhi uss guard se kaha pr woh bhi bhi nhi maan rahe the!Rana sa Rana sa ki ratt lagaye bethe the!yeh toh koi baat nhi hui na mumma?"Iti said and Aayat shook her head at that.
"Acha abhi aap so jaiye,mat sochiye inn sab ke baare mein"Aayat said as she leaned down and kissed her daughter's forehead as she tucked her in as if she was a lil girl.
"Good night mumma"Iti said and Aayat smiled and wished her the same before leaving the bedroom.
Shiv's pov-
Shiv sighed as he ended the call.
He kept his head against the headboard as he closed his eyes.
He was dead tired.
He would talk to her tomorrow and see if her anger cools down by then.
Once he reached the palace,he went inside and found it quiet,as it always is.
He frowned when he didn't saw anybody but then he realised that it was quite late at night and so everyone must be asleep.
He dragged his feet towards his chamber and without changing into his night clothes he passed out on the bed due to exhaustion.
Next morning,
"Bhaisa,3 din baad ki flight h hamari"Veer said with a sad voice and Shiv knew he didn't wanted to leave this soon.
"Abhi toh aaye h aap lekin"Nanisa Hukum said.
"Ji,pr agle hafte se hamare kuch tests honewale h toh isliye hame jaana padega Nanisa Hukum"Veer said and Nanisa Hukum nodded at that then.
"Aap bataiye aapko kya kya khana h,aur kya kya aap waha saath lekr jaana chahte h, hum woh sab banwa denge"Nanisa Hukum said with a smile and Veer reciprocated it.
"Phir chutti kab milegi aapko?"Shiv couldn't help but ask.
"Iss semester ke baad"Veer said and Shiv nodded his head at that.
"Ab Gauravi nhi hogi waha aapka dhyan rakhne ke liye,toh apna dhyan rakhiyega aap,samajh gaye?"Nanisa Hukum asked and Veer nodded his head at that.
He was sad about the fact that he had to leave his family,he never wanted to go to abroad and study the course he was doing but because everyone in their family has done it he was asked to do the same.
He didn't find business fascinating,he wanted to do something else but he knows his Nanisa Hukum might not like it also he was supposed to study and then join business so that his bhaisa could get a lil help with it.
"Pr bhabhisa toh yaha h hi nhi!!aap unhe bina mile chale jayenge?"Gauravi said with a surprised face.
"Woh wapas kab aa rahi h Pratap?"Nanisa Hukum asked and Shiv had no answer to that.
It has been exactly 9 days since Iti had gone to Mumbai and she has just called him twice and they have already even have had a fight yesterday.
Well it was because of his wife's childishness but he too participated in it.
"Abhi unhe waqt h aane mein Nanisa Hukum"Shiv said and nobody commented on it then.
"Pr hame bhabhisa se milna tha bhaisa!ab hum seedhe 2-3 mahine baad aayenge,woh bhi agar hame chutti mili toh!"Veer said with a pout.
"Koi baat nhi,aap Mumbai se flight board karenge na wese bhi?hum Iti ko Mumbai Airport bula lenge,woh aapko see off krne aa jayengi,tab mil lijiyega aap unse"Shiv said and Veer nodded and smiled hearing that.
After 3 days,
"Bhabhisaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!"Veer literally almost screamed as he saw Iti who giggled seeing his excitement.
He was always like this,a ball energy.
Veer approached her and bent down to touch her feet but Iti stepped back and asked him not to do it.
"Aap kesi h?hame pata h aapne sabse zyada hame hi miss kiya hoga!"Veer said and Iti giggled again hearing that.
Well she surely had missed his funny comments.
"Pr aap itni jaldi kyu jaa rahe h?abhi abhi toh aap aaye the Veer"Iti asked and Veer sighed.
"Kya kare bhabhisa? hamare haath mein thodi h,chodiye thode mahino ki baat h,hame pata h aap bore ho jayengi hamare bina pr ab kuch nhi kr sakte"Veer said and Iti again smiled at his words.
Her eyes did fall on her husband who stood a lil behind her brother in law but she choose to ignore him.
He had cut the call and hadn't even apologized!
"Aapki flight kab h?"Iti asked.
"Abhi 1 ghante mein board krna h hame"Veer said and Iti nodded her head at that.
"Yeh lijiye,yeh hamari mumma ne diya h aapke liye"Iti said and Veer raised his eyebrows at that.
"Pinni h ismein,kind of like a sweet,aapko accha lagega aur jaldi kharab bhi nhi hota h yeh toh aap aaram se khaa sakte h usse waha"Iti said and Veer smiled and thanked her for it.
"Aapko ab boarding kr leni chahiye aapki flight kyunki boaring shuru ho chuki h Veer"Shiv said and Veer nodded at that.
"Chaliye,agli baar milenge bhabhisa,aapse milkr accha laga"Veer said as he stared at Iti and gave her a small hug which she reciprocated.
"Aap dhyan rakhiyega apna,aur acche se padhai kijiyega"Iti said and he smiled and nodded at her.
He then turned towards his bhaisa who was looking at him.
"Apna khayal rakhiyega"Shiv said as he patted his shoulder and Veer gave him a big hug.
"Hame aapki bht yaad aayegi bhaisa"Veer said as he didn't pulled out of the hug.
"Hame bhi"Shiv said as he patted his back.
"Acha chaliye,jaiye ab wrna flight miss ho jayegi,aur apna dhyan rakhiyega,aur koi bhi dikkat ho toh bejhijhak hame phone kijiyega thik h?"Shiv asked and Veer nodded at that.
"Ji bhaisa"Veer said and was about to turn but Shiv stopped him and held him by his shoulders.
"Aur agli baar uss competition mein part le lijiyega"Shiv said and Veer was left surprised as he heard that.
"Bhaisa..aap..aapko..kese...
"Sab pata h hame,Nanisa Hukum ko hum sambhal lenge,aap bas woh kijiye jo aapka mann ho krne ka"Shiv said as he patted his cheek lovingly and Veer smiled widely hearing that and jumped on his brother to hug him again.
"I love you bhaisa!!!!!"Veer said and Shiv chuckled at his antics.
"Chaliye jaiye ab"Shiv said as he broke the hug and Veer smiled and left as the guards carried his luggage and he waved at them.
"Chaliye"Shiv said looking at Iti who didn't responded anything but did started walking towards her car.
She was about to sit in her car but Shiv held her wrist to stop her.
"Hamari gaadi mein aaiye"Shiv said and Iti didn't say anything but did comply and sat in his car.
Shiv sat beside her and asked the driver to take them to Iti's house.
"Wapas kab aa rahi h aap?"Shiv asked but Iti still didn't speak anything.
Shiv then turned and looked at her and found her staring out of the window.
"Thik h rahiye gussa abhi bhi"Shiv said with a sigh.
He had came all the way to Mumbai and she was still stuck on her stupid fight.
For the rest of the ride till Iti's home they didn't uttered even a single word to eachother.
As the car entered inside the guard opened
the door for them and even Shiv got out as it wasn't good that he came till their doorstep and didn't meet them.
The two entered the house together and were greeted by Iti's grandparents and her siblings as everyone else was at their workplaces.
