Rudra looked at his brother who was still lying on bed, eyes wide open and his smile spread all over his face. From the time he had came back in the room, they were sharing he looked dazed. His smile was not leaving his face and Rudra has now started doubting his brother's mental stability!

"Bhaiya now will you even tell what's going on? What is the reason behind this wide smile?" asked Rudra annoyed with the suspense his brother was creating. "Anika..." this was all he said before his smile turned even more wide if that was possible.

"What?" asked Rudra confused from where his Anika dii came in between. "Anika is the reason behind my smile." said Shivaay before looking toward Rudra who just stood up upon the realization.

"Did dii proposed you? So she is finally going to be my bhabhi! "

"Of course not idiot. It's just that she called me Shivaay." informed Shivaay while Rudra looked at him as if he had grown horns before settling down beside him.

"Bhaiya she just called you by your name and you are reacting as if she just proposed you for wedding." said Rudra disappointed, lying down on bed. "It's not about calling by name Rudra it's about taking a step. A step to know each other better, to be comfortable with each other and for the first time Anika took a step before me. In everything that happened between us it was me who took steps toward her but for the first time she did something before me. The sense of joy I get in this cannot be explained in words!"

Rudra nodded even though he didn't understood everything. "So can we finally say you are in love with her?" asked Rudra as Shivaay laid down beside him. A moment of silence followed it when Shivaay finally started speaking.

" I don't know Rudra. I don't know whether everything I feel for her can be classified as love or not. She give me feelings people write novels upon. She makes me smile just like anything even her thought is enough to curve up my lips. You see---like right now. Something or the other always remind me about her. Being able to make her smile feel like an achievement. If this is love than I think I am deeply and passionately in love with her. Still I want to discover more. Enjoy this period of time and feel all what she can make me feel. Live each of these magical moment and sum up my perception of love for her!"

"And when will you propose her? " asked Rudra hopefully. He can't wait to see them together as a couple. The happiness his brother get with his Anika dii is so divine that he can't help but wish for it to stay forever. Shivaay took a moment before answering.

"The day she be the actual her with me! "

Rudra looked at him confused when Shivaay explained him "She is a nefelibata Rudra. She doesn't show it but she lives in the cloud of her own imagination. She doesn't believe in convention of society, literature or art."

"I'll say my feeling to her the day she start speaking with me without forecasting what affect it have on me. The day when she is confident enough on me to say or do anything without thinking twice. The day she can share her intimacy with me!" continued Shivaay.

"Intimacy? My Naughty brother!!" teased Rudra smirking only to receive a smack from Shivaay on his head.

"Idiot Intimacy is not about touching the body it's able to text or call each other at midnight without any hesitation. Intimacy is about giving someone your attention even, when ten other people are asking for the same. Intimacy is about having the person always in the back of your mind no matter how disturbed you are. I want this intimacy from Anika's side for me!"

"How does you get to know the things about Anika dii which she hides it from everyone?" asked Rudra looking at the ceiling "I don't know. I just know she is not what she shows. She is hiding her true self. She is a careless butterfly, when I call her careless it's not that I am taunting her it's to remind her that this is what she is, yes she is strong but in the process of being the strongest one she is loosing her inner self. The careless butterfly which maybe she was with her mother. I want to bring that back and I know I will!"

Rudra nodded grasping his brother's word. At this moment a thought crossed his mind and that was of Somya, his sumo. The first girl in his life and his best friend. He agree his feelings for her were not this deep but still she was once his bestest friend and secret keeper. The worst part was they didn't even had a proper closure. She left him in irritation and  annoyance when he didn't gave up on his dream of being a commando for her. He at least deserved a proper closure.

Sleep engulfed the Obeori brothers as they were lost in their own sweet and sour thoughts.

---------------

Anika got ready after a shower. She wore a yellow off shoulder top and faded jeans. Gauri hadn't allowed  her to bring shirts on the trip saying she have her husband, she don't want her boyfriend along. How lame!!

Anika noticed her smile in the mirror. The smile was refusing to leave her lips since last night. Anika didn't knew from where she got the courage to say that to Dr Douchebro okay Shivaay! God she was still not over Dr. Douchebro!

The smile that came on his lips listening his name from her was so contagious that it's affect was still there on her. She felt so proud to be the reason of that alluring curve and sparkling spectral eyes. His eyes, those mesmerizing eyes and she felt so glad to confess how beautiful his eyes were. Anika's thought were disturbed by her phone message ringtone. She checked it to see a message from Dr. Douchebro. She still haven't changed his name from the contact list. Laughing she checked the message.

'Ready?  Let's have breakfast together in the restaurant beside the hotel.'

Anika smile turned more wide. The way he always talk to her without any formal greeting and all feels so much like she is a part of his inner circle. Part of the group of persons he cares for. Her thoughts were disturbed by another message and her smile turned even more wide reading it

'Anika?'

He called her Anika for the first time okay not called but typed as Anika.  Yesterday after she called him by his first name they just stayed in silence without speaking anything and now she can't wait to listen Anika from him. She received another message.

'Anika?  You ready? "

She felt her cheeks burning red don't know why? Replying 'just coming' she moved out of the room toward the restaurant . She saw Dr.  Douchebro okay sorry Shivaay and Sahil on a table. She joined them with a smile on her lips "Good morning Ani" greeted Sahil to which Anika replied back.

"Good morning Anika!"

She heard Dr. Douchebro voice who was speaking with mischief written all over his face and much to her surprise her cheeks turned warm and red. She looked down for a minute before looking at him "Good morning Dr.... " Shivaay raised an eyebrow and Anika bit her lips before saying "Good morning Shivaay."

"Wow when did this progress happened?" exclaimed Sahil only to receive a smack from Anika on his back. "Where are others?" asked Anika as Sahil looked at the menu on Shivaay's demand. "Om and Gauri would be joining in a bit and Rudra...." he trailed of pointing at the seat behind Anika where Rudra was talking to a foreign girl.

Anika tried to listen to Rudra along with Dr. Douchebro. She couldn't help but giggle at what she heard. "Are you flirting with me Mr Rudra?" the girl said with an American accent to which Rudra nodded innocently before replying "I'm not flirting my lady I am just being extra friendly with someone who is extra attractive."

The girl blushed with a shy smile when Rudra again commented "Did the sun just came out or did you just smiled at me?"

Anika felt like bursting into fits of laughter listening to Rudra's over cheesy one liners. She looked toward Dr. Douchebro okay Shivaay who passed his alluring smile toward her before commenting "He is like that only idiot !" Anika nodded agreeing "but he is cute to."

Soon they were joined by Om and Gauri. Om pulled Rudra to their corner much to his annoyance. They ordered for noodles and bread pakora along with coffee for everyone. "So what's the plan for today Shivaay?" asked Om.

"Well first a boat ride with which we will go to the Naina Devi Temple. After this will go on a long car drive visiting various site seeing places and then we would go for a ropeway!" replied Dr. Douchebro.

"Sounds exciting" commented Gauri as others agreed. They had their breakfast discussing over Cricket World Cup going on. Much to Dr. Douchebro and Om annoyance Anika paid the bill for the food.

They took two paddle boats on lease, in one Om and Gauri and in the other Dr. Docuhebro, Anika, Sahil and Rudra. Before Anika could object Rudra went and sat beside Sahil saying he have youngster talks with Sahil and Anika had only one option and that was to sit beside Dr. Docuhebro sorry Shivaay not that she minded!

Rudra was doing the paddling when Anika asked Shivaay "Tell something about this lake Dr Google Oberoi? " Her face held  smug smile while Shivaay fake frowned "Not again Anika!"

"Well there is nothing much about this lake except Mr. P. Barron, who is supposed to be the first one who visited Nainital, from Rosa, an English business man in sugar trade, on a hunting expedition accidentally coming across the lake at Nainital and was so captivated that he decided to build a European Colony on shores of the lake. It is believed that two Indian sages visited there, wandering, it is a belief of people that they blessed the lake with divine power, one can acquire divinement by taking bathe in it, and the same as in the Mansarovar lake."

"But you know Didi this lake is not as clean as the lakes and rivers in Kashmir. You can see through the water in the lakes of Kashmir. They are beautiful. It is indeed rightly said that if their is heaven somewhere on earth it is in Kashmir. Although conditions are not so heavenly there!" said Rudra looking at the dull water.

"This is because of the sewage disposal here. In Kashmir the water is directly from glaciers and have quite a flow so they are not stagnant. This lake is eutrophic to high nutrient accumulation and growth of phytoplankton. Algal blooms had caused loss of transparency. In spite of installing sewer lines to prevent sewage entering the lake still some effluents from drains, leakage and open defecation add to the eutrophication." gave in Dr. Douchebro while Anika nodded in understanding. There was no second thought that human activities are spoiling our natural and cultural heritage.

"You know Anika this lake is in shape of a crescent moon." informed Shivaay to which Anika face gleamed in happiness. Moon was something she adores a lot. But how does he know it?

"Sahil told once!" Shivaay answers her unasked question and she smiled without getting surprised. She has accepted the fact that he knows  everything but this doesn't change the fact that she hates his perfection!

"SSO I wanted to ask why was there two roads when we walked here. One on upper level while the other lower" it was Sahil this time and that's when even Anika noticed. The roads in Nanital were divided into two parts one was lower than the other although both led the same route.

"This place is built by Britishers Sahil. They didn't consider lower Indian people worthy of walking on the path they move on. So the lower one was for common Indians while the upper one was for Indian royalty and Britishers." informed Shivaay to which Rudra commented "How childish!"

Watching over the various mini whirlpool, boats, water birds, mountains, clicking pictures and splashing water on each other they reached the other part of the shore to visit Naini Devi Temple also known as Shri Maa Naina Devi Temple.

They were joined by Om and Gauri, after buying the pooja thali, they all entered taking out their slippers. This brought back the memory of slipper theory of Anika and both Anika and Shivaay shared a knowing look before chuckling silently.

Inside the temple, there was a vast courtyard, towards its left was a sacred peepal tree that seemed like sheltering the visitors of Naina Devi Temple. Across the tree there was a huge idol of Lord Hanuman. Bowing their head at the idol they moved in the inner sanctum with lots of people present there. The inner sanctum contained sculpted figure of three deities, to the extreme left was Mata Kali Devi, to extreme right was Lord Ganesha and in the center were the two netras (eyes) that represent Naina Devi. After offering their prayers they moved to the courtyard to tie red thread on the peepal tree.

After clicking various pictures and group selfie they moved outside, thankfully all the footwear were safe.  They took their boats to go back. By now slight winds were blowing and the ripples created in water looked breath taking.

Anika noticed a gaze on her and turned to see Shivaay looking at her with his alluring smile and spectral eyes. She raised an eyebrow and asked "What? " He bend toward her and whispered......

"I never knew yellow could look this bewitching on Kohinoor!"
