MAYRA'S POV
"Seriously Mayra?" Rehan asked in irritation and made a face after getting up from the bed and tossing the pillow at me. I douche that pillow and put it back on the bed to its initial position. He made a face and lie down. I shook my head and laughed at his childish and extremely cute reactions.
"So basically today you are going to waste our sixth day by inviting bunch of people at dinner?" He asked faking a disbelief voice. I pursued my lips and nodded in a big yes while folding his shirt neatly and putting it inside the wardrobe.
"Mayra please. I don't want to waste my time tolerating them. Let's just spent the moment, two of us. It would be great, isn't it?” He again asked by buttering his words.
"No. You said yesterday that I will be with you forever then my Mr. Husband we'll get enough time for spending together but today you'll have the dinner with them." I replied and turned around to look at him with a polite smile.
After hearing my words, he pouted cutely, just like a little child. I blinked and smiled inwardly, controlling the urge to pinch his cheek at this much cuteness.
"Did Mr. Rehan Malhotra really pouted?" I teased and that's when his expressions turned to serious one.
"No…Err… I didn't but did I? Mayra. Shut up." He shuttered and I burst out laughing to which he also smiled.
I took a deep breath and moved my fingers over the button of shirt which I've just folded. I looked at him who was now lost in his cell phone. No not in his office work instead playing games. His face was care free like there was nothing to worry about. If I say that I was witnessing a teenage boy in place of him than I won’t be wrong. Definitely this was different Rehan; someone whom I love even more.
Tonight I've planned a dinner at our house with those people who were constant with me since the journey of our marriage. Rehan has to realize that there's not only me who's for him but there are also others who cares for him. He has to realize the importance of others in his life.
"You know what, let's go somewhere out." He said with his eyes still fix on the game he was playing on his cell phone.
"At least it would be much better than this dinner thing." He muttered under his breath, rolling his eyes.
"No." I said with a smile and closed the door of wardrobe finally being able to put his clothes neatly in his cupboard which were early looking like a piece of garbage.
"Fewwh done!" I exclaimed with a big smile and then directed him to get up from the bed so that I can change the bed sheet.
He looked at me in annoyed expressions and in a swift movement gets up and grabbed a seat on the couch. I shook my head and changed the bed sheet followed by changing the pillow covers.
"You know you should stop doing such works. Like changing the bed sheet, folding my clothes, cooking…and everything else. Servants are there to do all these." He said after putting his cell phone aside and looking at me with suggesting look.
I licked my lips and then shook my head.
"I don't have any problem in doing household works instead they kept me engrossed." I replied and actually I am thank full for such works to exist otherwise I might have died out of boredom.
Earlier when I used to work as the psychiatrist, then my days used to pass easily but now....I smiled and quickly shake off that thought.
"Great to know that I will never be able to understand the way your brain functions." He said sarcastically.
"Mutual feelings." I said playfully and he rolled his eyes again.
"Now please change your clothes. Everyone must be coming." I added and after giving me one blank look, he rushed inside the bathroom.
Rehan, you are day by day surprising me to another new level.
***
"Mayra I am not sure that this would be a great idea." James blurted out all of sudden as soon as he grabbed the seat at dinning chair.
"Exactly." Ron said.
I smiled at their nervousness and then sifted my eyes towards Lily and Sophia who were also having the same expression as James and Ron.
"Mr. Malhotra will not like us having dinner here and that too with him."
Sophia whispered, continuously playing through her hair lock and secretly catching glimpse of James.
Ah…So basically there's something-something happening inside Sophia's heart.
"Yup. Truly said. What if he'll go all angry at us?" Lily asked care freely and passed a wink at Ron and Ron well he just coughed in surprise.
I shifted my eyes to clock and wonder that where Vishal was. He's already late but still there's no sign of him.
"Mayra, are you even listening to us?" Ron asked and then only my attention turned towards their worry.
If someone had said to me, few days back that I would be having dinner with Rehan then I must be on the same boat as them. Because old Rehan was not into all these and would have snapped several times but I know now that the new Rehan might not be interested in attending this dinner but definitely he would not snap at any one.
"Trust me." I said and they all nodded.
"Damn Mayra, Your Husband is so hot but the hell...Is he really Mr. Malhotra? I mean he looks different." Lily all of sudden screamed in a low voice making my eyes turn to the steps from where Rehan was heading down.
My eyes ran all upon him. He was in military green T-shirt and dark black denim which was hanging low to his hips. His hair were all messy and he has that constant scowl on his face which I don't know how was looking extremely gorgeous at him.
Different? Oh yeah, he's not wearing his usual business attire and that constant deep arrogant look which he used to plaster earlier, Instead he was in casual attire which I've shopped for him and to some extent he do looks carefree.
I flushed at having same thought as Lily and smiled brightly.
"Are you crazy? He's her husband and you talking such things in front of her?" Ron spoke with clenched teeth and a little hint of jealousy didn't get unnoticed by me.
"So? I am also saying that you look absolutely hot and fuckable." My jaw dropped after hearing Lilly's comment and everyone burst out laughing except Ron who was all shades of red.
Rehan reached the dining table and grabbed a seat next to me. Suddenly whole environment went to pin drop silent and everyone has their eyes on the plate. And Rehan well he was just sitting there with blank expressions.
To cut the thick tension, I decided to let out some words.
"So you were saying something Lily?" Her expressions turned to horrified one and she slowly gave me the look to zip up my lips.
But instead I said, "Yeah. Right, you were saying that Rehan is looking different?"
"Nooo. Actually I-I... No. Ugh. Mayra." She shuttered and that's when something unexpected happened, Rehan burst out laughing followed by others joining him in laughing at Lily's sudden reaction.
I just smiled and passed a look to Lily saying sorry. She quickly understood that I only wanted to make everyone relaxed. So she smiled back at me and then blew a small kiss to Ron, who instantly drank a whole class of water.
"I am sorry Barbie doll. I am late." And here comes Vishal. I playfully glared at him and in no time, he embraced me into his arms. I smiled and wrapped my arms around him.
"Oh… So Mr. Arrogant is also here." He said, grabbing seat next to Rehan.
"I am still wondering that why the hell she invited a monkey in here?" Rehan commented back with a smirk and at the same time, Vishal looked at him and then at me with his eyes wide open. Soon his lips curled up into smile and he mouthed a thank you at me.
I nodded after realizing that he's thanking me for something to which I am also grateful for; the new Rehan.
Soon everyone started eating the food and finally everything started getting on the right track in the same way as I wanted it to be. Rehan was freely interacting with everyone with that breath taking constant smile.
"Wow Mayra, you could fail all the professional chefs, you know." Sophia said with an appreciative smile.
I smiled back.
"She's damn perfect in whatever she does." Vishal muttered, his mouth stuffed with food.
I flushed and shifted uncomfortably, trying to divert the topic.
"And she's mine." My eyes instantly fell on Rehan who ate his dinner like he hasn't said anything.
My heart fastens its beating after hearing his word and when I realized that every pair of eyes were at me and Rehan, then only I closed my eyes shut in embarrassment. Blood rushed up to my cheeks and I mentally prayed to get over this situation as soon as I can.
Surely, Rehan doesn't care a bit that what will others think or even the fact that he has just said that in front of others. I peeked my eyes open and instantly Vishal smirked with some mischievous glow in his eyes.
"She's yours only because of my hard efforts to get you two married." Vishal blurted out but instantly covered his mouth with his palm clearly making it clear that he had mistakenly said those words.
A smile danced over my cheeks. Definitely I am wholeheartedly thankful to Vishal. Only because of him today I am living in this beautiful reality.
"Well then…You did the right thing." Rehan said and I felt his palm resting over my thigh.
I chocked on my food and instantly Vishal handed me water. After gulping down the water, I tried to remove his hand away but instead he kissed me on my cheeks. Yes, kissed me in front of everyone. I blushed and averted my gaze on the plate.
"I can see that I've done the right thing." I heard Vishal muttering to himself
God. That was so embarrassing!
After calming down the strange rate of my heart, I took a glance of Rehan who was looking at me with his signature smirk. I melted under his intense gaze and at the same time took a deep breath after averting my eyes from him.
After the dinner gets over Rehan walked to bedroom, leaving me alone with all who were ready to fire tons of question mixed with teasing at the same time. I silently tried to avoid everyone and for that I took a step before disappearing but before that could happen, both Sophia and Lily stopped me by standing in front of me.
"Oh my freaking God. That was one hell of a great show." Lily said in a dreamy tone and pulled my arms to sit on the couch.
"And that kiss. Dang! That was hot!" Sophia said and this time I couldn't stopped myself from blushing hard.
"Mayra." Ron called my name and I looked in his direction to find him smiling in content.
"Since the day I was working for him, for the first time I've seen him this much happy and all thanks to you." He added.
"Yes Mayra, today we all have witnessed another Mr. Malhotra. Now he's happy and it only happened, because of you.
"James said next and I smiled at them.
I was right. They do care for Rehan.
"Thanks for bringing my old friend back, Mayra... I don't even have enough words to thank you for what you've done." Vishal said and embraced me again in his arms.
I smiled and whispered. "I haven't done anything."
"Now we'll leave okay? I know that idiot must be impatiently waiting for you." He added with a chuckle and I nodded after passing everyone a look of content.
As soon as they all left, I rushed towards our room but to my sadness, there was no hint of him. I arched up my eyebrows and took a step back before turning around but before that could happen, a pair of arm gets wrapped around my waist, pulling me closer till my back hits his chest. I froze at my place and took a deep breath.
"I heard everything, you were talking them." He leaned near my ear then muttered under his breath. I felt a shiver rushing down my spine.
"They care about my happiness?" He asked in the previous way after running his fingers over my arm, generating electric current inside my body.
I nodded and pressed my eyes shut.
"I've realized something today also." He said, putting my ear lobe between his teeth and that's when a low moan escaped from my lips. He nibbled then I felt his tongue running down my neck. The wetness over my flesh was enough to shiver in pleasure.
"That family isn't only about blood. There are so many people out there with whom one can connect the relation of heart."
He said, licking my collar bone. I clenched my fists together and smiled at his words even though I was having goose bumps due to his action.
Then he turned me around and held our gaze together. There was happiness reflecting from his eyes which were sparking down into curling of his lips into beautiful smile. I stood there in his arms feeling the warmth and comfort but still I could feel the wetness of his tongue sliding over my flesh. I shivered again even with that thought.
He arched up his eyebrows like he was trying to read my body language and then after few seconds his lips turned into smirk. That smirk which was proof that he has understood my condition.
The condition where my body was betraying me due to his intimacy. I blinked my eyes and then all of sudden he locked his lips with mine into strong, deep and passionate kiss. He kissed me hard and his tongue played with my bottom lip, asking for entrance. With the immense amount of pleasure that I was feeling, I gave him entrance, colliding our tongue together. He savored every inch of mouth and I was just melting under his strong influence.
"This was the perfect dessert. My favorite taste." He mumbled near my lips, taking my breath away.
Blush crept up to my cheeks as soon as we parted away.
"I enjoyed tonight but I hope you'll make our last day more special and more.... Tasteful." He winked.
I gulped down my saliva and closed my eyes, grabbing the seat at the corner of bed. Definitely Rehan, tomorrow you'll get the biggest surprise of your life. And I'll make this day more and more special.
Just wait and watch.
With a huge smile I then drifted to sleep in his comfortable arms, with a beautiful hope that tomorrow would be blast, just the way I want it to be.
