It was about three days since Shivaay and Anika brought Rudra back. Things were back to normal in everyone's life well for Rudra they have got even more better, he was having a new found liking toward Gauri's sister Assistant Commissioner of Police Bhavya Pratap Rathore who had come to stay with her for the time being as Rakshabandhan was coming up.

Each year she ties Rakhi to her elder sister. How can she miss it this year? Who says we can't celebrate Rakshbandhan if we don't have a brother?

Well this year Bhavya may tie Rakhi to Om as well if Om allow her to, after all Bhavya is Om's half wife according to the famous Hindi proverb 'Sali, aadhi gharwali!'

In Bhavya's list of people she have to tie Rakhi names were added which now included her newly found elder sister Anika, her newly found brothers Veer, Shivaay and Sahil. Well she wanted to add in the list the Commando she had admired for the bravery of taking two bullets but he had very rudely refused to be her brother making her hate him altogther.

It was yet another day and Anika came back from her duty. She was taking out her boots when the door opened and a girl literally jumped on her hugging her tightly.

"Mallika!!"

Anika was surprised to find her bestie and her Bhabhi's sister in her house all of a sudden. She had no idea about her arrival. "How are you Mallika?"Anika asked reciprocating the hug. Mallika broke the hug frowning "Now you will ask how I am, but didn't missed me at all. You always forget me. I so hate you!"

Anika chuckled at the drama queen and turned to see her brother Veer and his wife Kritika standing there with a smile along with Sahil. She immediately went and hugged kritika "O My God, How are you Bhabhi? You look even more younger than the last time you know!" she teased and Kritika chuckled rubbing her back.

"O hello first greet me properly!" said a frowning Malllika as Veer pulled her inside chuckling. "Titli go and change then we will talk." said Veer and Anika nodded and left for her room to change.

"Now tell me CM why didn't you inform me that my Bhabhi is coming?" asked Anika frowning after they had their lunch cooked by Veer  to which Kritika replied "Well I wanted to give my first love a surprise can't I?" Veer frowned at her "Excuse me if she is the first love than who am I? "

The other four shouted together "Second!!"

Veer glared them and Mallika continued "You know Annie we would have come along with Jiju only but Didi didn't got a leave so we came late." Sahil smirked before commenting "Thank God at least for few days we were at relief." Mallika smacked his head commenting "Shut up you rat!"

"Double shut up you lizard!" gave back Sahil smacking her head as well when Veer interrupted both of them "You guys again started? Behave yourself." Mallika and Sahil glared each other while other chuckled at the two. They are indeed typical siblings!

"Jiju this time I will tie you Rakhi okay so do prepare my gift." ordered Mallika to which Veer raised an eyebrow "Excuse me My half wife, how can you tie Rakhi to me? Also why all of a sudden you want to tie me Rakhi, till now I was your half husband what happen now?" Mallika blushed slightly before commenting "Because I found my full time husband, I am finally in love!" Everyone rolled their eyes as Kritika commented "Third time this week!"

"And who is this guy?" asked Veer faking hurt and other giggled while Mallika continued "I don't know his name, I saw him today itself when we were waiting for you to come and receive us at the Cartonment gate!"

"Isn't it too early for love Mallika?" asked Anika sarcastically to which Mallika frowned "You won't understand the emotion of love, unromantic girl!"

Anika chuckled before commenting "and what if the person is married, you see most of the men in Army are married!" Mallika grinned before replying "No I heard his friend telling him that you won't understand the pain of a married man because you don't have a wife! That's the moment I realized I love him." Anika rolled her eyes before commenting "You are no doubt crazy Mallika!"

"Trust me Annie, he was so hot. His jet black hairs, his sharp jawline, his pointed yet little curved nose, his fair skin, his well built body and not to forget how sexy he was looking in that army uniform. Also the best thing was his eyes, so beautiful the most beautiful eyes I have even seen" trailed off Mallika in a dreamy voice as Anika looked at her with some sort of confusion.Didn't the description suited a particular person she knew?

Before she could ask anything to Mallika the door bell rang and Anika went to open the door seeing Sahil too much involved in giving snickering comments to Mallika. She opened the door and there stood Shivaay, in a white check shirt and black narrow pants with his spectral eyes and alluring smile looking as handsome as always.

"Shivaay!!" beamed Anika engulfing him in a hug as he reciprocated smiling widely. The moment couldn't go more better. She doesn't understand but his every visit brings a lot of happiness no matter if she had seen him just few hours ago only!

"Do you have guest at home?" asked Shivaay as they broke the hug with their hands still intertwined knowingly-unknowingly. "Well not guest, my family come I will introduce you to them." said Anika enthusiastically dragging Shivaay inside while he chuckled at her excitement.

"Shivaay she is my Kritika Bhabhi, CM's wife." introduced Anika while Shivaay passed a shivering smile to Veer who was smirking, why not the memories of that confrontation of Veer being the love interests of Anika was still fresh in both their minds.

"She is Mallika, my bestie and Bhabhi's sister." introduced Anika while Mallika just gawked Shivaay. "and guys he is Shivaay, Col Shivaay Singh Oberoi, my senior and my bestest friend." added Anika with a smile while both Shivaay and Veer rolled their eyes. When will she get over this damn best Friend!

"Oh so he is Shivaay!" commented Kritika looking at Veer for confirmation who nodded as she started taking a look of Shivaay who shuffled nervously. He bend toward Anika a bit and asked slowly "Why is she looking at me like this?" Anika shrugged off saying "Well CM must have told about your proposal to Bhabhi that's why she is checking how you are?"

"I am not talking about Bhabhi, I am talking about your friend." he said making her look toward Mallika who was gawking Shivaay with open mouths checking him out from top to bottom. Anika looked confused for a moment than her eyes widened in realization.

Mallika was talking about Shivaay a moment before!!

She immediately gripped Shivaay's arm and replied Kritika although looking at Mallika "Yes Bhabhi he is Shivaay, the person who loves me and proposed me!"

Kritika smiled while Shivaay looked shocked at Anika, what had gotten inside her mind all of sudden? She is introducing him like this and man that hold on his arm. Is she planning to stop his flow of blood?

"Mallika, won't you greet your new found brother?" asked Anika sweetly to which Mallika looked dumbfounded and spoke in a go "Excuse me when did he become my brother?" Veer and Kritika giggled knowing what was happening while Shivaay looked confused as well as awkward.

Sahil who anyway get confused in the elder's talks left for his studies after greeting his SSO.

"Of course Mallika, Shivaay isn't she like your little sister?" asked Anika looking toward Shivaay with narrowed eyes that clearly implied dare you refuse.  Shivaay gulped before answering "Of course she is like my sister infact she is my sister."

Mallika screamed over dramatically before furrowing her brows at Shivaay "Excuse me you can't be my brother. I reject this proposal." She said looking other side wrapping her arms around her chest while Shivaay awkwardly said "OK!" Looks like nowadays everyone reject his proposals!

"What Okay? She is your sister." Anika said again in a stern voice to which Shivaay changed the topic calmly knowing very well that he is the one going to suffer otherwise. "Anyway Anika let's leave it. I came here because Rudra was wishing to meet you, you know right he can't go a single day without eating yours and Om's brain. Om, Gauri and Bhavya are already there so I came to call you as well."Anika nodded when Shivaay added toward others "Why don't you guys join us as well, Bhabhi and Mallika will get to meet others?"

Everyone agreed after quite a few request from Shivaay and left for Shivaay's house except Sahil who had studies to look after. They were greeted by Om, Rudra, Bhavya, Gauri, Tej and Jhanvi. Everyone were talking over various things while Anika was sitting way too close to Shivaay as Mallika was still gawking him.

Shivaay excused himself to cook something for everyone and Anika joined him giving a look to Mallika. Both of then left toward the kitchen. "You know right you can enjoy there, I will cook and anyway you don't know how to cook." he said pinching her nose giggling as she twisted her mouth.

"No I want to be with you!"

"Fine!" said Shivaay smiling as she settled on the kitchen slab while he brought the ingredients to cook. Anika was having a piece of bread when Shivaay asked "Now tell me why you are behaving like this? What had gotten in that mischievous brain of yours?"

"What? I am not getting you." said Anika looking here and there as Shivaay silently chuckled at his not so innocent Kohinoor. "You know what I am talking about. Come on say it. You knew you can always share with me." He said rubbing her cheeks affectionately.

"Okay fine yes I am having so much irritation right now from Mallika." scowled Anika and Shivaay looked amused "Why what did she do?" Anika crushed the bread she was holding and said "She said you are hot , you look sexy in your uniform as she had seen you this morning. She said your eyes are beautiful!"

"So am I not hot and sexy? My eyes are not  beautiful?" asked Shivaay with a raised eyebrow to which Anika replied unconsciously "Of course you are hot and sexy. The most handsome person I have seen. Your eyes are indeed so beautiful and spectral but she can't just say it!"

Shivaay smirked before putting both his hands across her caging her up as she shifted backwards "So you think I am hot and sexy?" Anika's blood rushed to her cheeks as she stammered "I... I didn't mean that.. I mean!"

Shivaay chuckled before pulling her cheeks "You are so cute Anika." annnnd she again blushed. Why can't her cheeks refrain from turning red when she is with him?

"Okay now you continue." said Shivaay going back to his work. Anika released the breath she was holding under his proximity before continuing  "She says that she had found her new love in you. Okay I agree that its not love only crush and admiration but she can't just like this admire you. She can't. I am feeling all michmichi." Anika ended in her own  language and Shivaay smiled before turning off the gas.

"Are you by any chance jealous Anika?" asked Shivaay with a raised eyebrow catching Anika off-guard. She fumbled with her words "Of course not why would I not be jealous....I mean why would I be jealous?"

Shivaay raised both his eyebrows before keeping his hands on either side of Anika caging her up "Okay fine I am jealous, she can't admire you that's it! I don't know why but she just can't stare and admire you like this!" she said stubbornly while wrapping her hands around her chest frowning.

He chuckled before making her look toward him "No matter who admire me or love me.." he stopped and Anika took a deep breath as he bend toward her ear caging her up, she closed her eyes as he whispered in her ears ever so slowly.

"Your Dr. Douchebro belongs to you Kohinoor...now and forever!"
