Abheer directly went to one of their restaurants for security reasons as you all know what happened on the naming ceremony day of Abhaya. So to prevent any media interactions, he chose to go to their restaurant.
Ruhanika got ready to go.
"Maasa, I'll be going now. Do you want me to bring Abhaya downstairs?" Ruhanika asked Meera while descending the stairs.
"No beta, you go. Aditi and Aishu will be going to your room to be with her. You don't worry and enjoy yourself." Meera said smiling.
"You're looking really beautiful didisa. Are there any plans to impress my bhaisa, hmm!?" Aditi teased wiggling her eyebrows. Ruhanika's eyes widen at her comment.
"Youu... don't say that. No....nothing is like that." She said nervously as the elder ladies were sitting to in the living room too. Others laugh at her red face making her whine.
"Okay okay, don't tease my Ruhi now. You go and enjoy baccha." Niharika said. Ruhanika hugged her for getting her out of the awkward situation.
Ruhanika smiled and moved out saying bye to them.
Ruhanika came out only to see Shekhawat standing by the car waiting for her. Seeing her coming, he immediately bowed his head greeting her.
"Ghani khamma baisa. I'll be your ride till the restaurant, hukum sa sent me." He said.
"Khamma ghani bhaisa. But don't bow to me, I guess I'm not that old." Ruhanika replied in a playful tone.
Shekhawat's eyes widen at her and he immediately said,
"I'm sorry baisa. I did not mean to offend you. I was just following the protocol."
Ruhanika chuckled at his expression and said,
"It's okay, I was just kidding."
Shekhawat heaved a sigh if relief and asked her,
"Okay. Would you be okay with this car or want to go in any other car? Hukum sa asked me to specifically ask for your preference."
Ruhanika smiled hearing him, knowing that Abheer remembered her liking towards cars.
"Can I?" She asked excited.
"Sure, baisa. Let me lead the way to garage." Shekhawat said and moved towards garage followed by Ruhanika.
By the way this was the car Shekhawat was standing by.
G- Wagon!!
They entered the garage and Ruhanika started looking at many cars.
"That one!" Ruhanika said pointing at the one that caught her eyes.
Shekhawat looked at it and nodded. He then went to get the car keys.
He came and opened the backside door for her.
"If you're okay, I'll like to sit on the passenger seat. We can have nice chat during our drive to restaurant. What say?" Ruhanika said, as she did not like the feeling of treating him like her driver. Well.... Ruhanika's logics!!!
Shekhwat just smiled at her polite nature saying, "as you wish baisa."
Ruhanika smiled at him and he opened the door of the passenger seat. Once, she was settled, he moved around the car to sit on driver seat.
As they moved out of the garage, they came behind one of the guards' car and another car followed them behind.
"Okay, so I saw that there are many Urus in the garage, is there any reason behind this?" She asked the question that occupied her mind the moment she selected this car.
"Well there is. Out of all the cars, this is the only one model that is liked by everyone in the younger siblings. So they all decided to have one for each." Shekhawat replied.
Ruhanika widen her eyes at his answer.
"Wow, they are richy rich!! Like I already knew they are rich, but this is next level craziness of buying same car for each person, just because it is liked by everyone and that too Lamborghinis worth of crores!!!" Ruhanika voiced her thoughts, shock evident in her tone.
Shekhawat chuckled at her reply, making her smiled sheepishly at him.
"So whose this car is?" She asked.
"This one is of Abhiraj Chhote hukum's." He replied.
Ruhanika hummed.
"Are you married?" Shekhawat's eyes widen at her unexpected question and his ears started turning red.
"No, baisa." He said trying to compose his expression, which are looking like blushing.
Ruhanika laughed at his face and said,
"Then, you must be in relation, seeing your face. You're literally blushing bhaisa." She laughed aloud making him turn his face away from her.
"So if you don't have any problem, would you like to tell me about this secret girlfriend of yours." Ruhanika asked wiggling her brows at him with a devil smile. Shekhawat sighed before starting to tell her.
This was how the ride till restaurant was! With Ruhanika teasing Shekhawat and him getting shy of her flirty comments!!
They reached the restaurant which was named 'R for Rajwadi! Their car directly stopped in front of hotel.
"Baisa, would you please wear this mask? Just for safety reasons, as we were travelling in the royal car without any royal member. Though all people in palace know you are family, others don't. It might be of problem if your photo goes into media, I mean for your safety!" Shekhawat said not knowing how to convince her.
Ruhanika chuckled at his baffled expression and said,
"It's okay bhaisa, you don't need to worry. I understand. Let's get going now." Ruhanika wore the mask.
Shekhawat got off the car and come to her side to open the car. The people around the restaurant and on the street started looking at the person who was about to get off of the car, when they saw the head security of Hukum Sa coming out of the car.
But what they saw confused them, as a young, tall lady wearing a saree and mask came out of the car. People started gossiping and guessing who the person might be as just some time before some of them saw hukum sa's car entering the private parking.
Shekhawat quickly guided her inside the restaurant, knowing though there was no paparazzi, others can still click her pictures. He guided her towards the private elevator. The door opened as he entered followed by Ruhanika.
"You can take off your mask now, baisa." Shekhawat told her once the door was closed.
"Have a nice day, baisa. Manager will guide you from here." Shekhawat said once the ding sound was heard indicating they reached their floor.
Ruhanika smiled and wished him good bye too.
Once she stepped out, she saw it was actually an open roof top.
A man was standing by the door anxiously, she saw.
His head turned towards her diraction when she stepped out.
"Ghani khamma baisa." The man, she assumed manager greeted.
She greeted him too with a smile.
"Hukum has arrived and is waiting for you. Please follow me." He said guiding her way.
The interior was so beautiful for her liking, but she frowned seeing the whole area empty.
"Why there are no people? I saw the ground floor had much crowd, then why not here?" She asked the manager.
"Ohh, that is coz hukum booked the whole floor for sometime." He said making her nod.
Abheer who was busy reading his emails, turned his upwards when he heard footsteps coming, or more specifically the soft tingling sound of Ruhanika's payal.
His gaze stopped on her, seeing her looking so beautiful yet elegant in that saree.
Her saree
Her hair (which are curly, of course!)
As a gentleman he is, he stood up from his seat, when Ruhanika came towards him. He signaled the manager to go from there. Ruhanika' face was covered in full on grin, when her gaze landed on Abheer.
"Hii Abheer ji." She greeted him with a side-hug.....in her excitement!!!
Abheer was taken aback with her gesture, but immediately reciprocated as well.
"Hey Ruhi!" He said pulling out of the hug. He turned to grab the bouquet he brought for Ruhi!
"Beautiful flowers for a beautiful lady!" He said handing over the flowers to her. Ruhanika smiled at him holding her favourite flowers!
"How do you know these are my favourite?!" She said taking them and smelling their soothing scent.
"Are they?" He asked making her nod.
"Well, I didn't know actually that they are your favourite. So I decided to buy which I like. Guess we both have same liking in flowers!" He said.
Ruhanika hugged him once again smiling,
"Thank you for the flowers, I loved them!"
Abheer hugged her back smiling and patted her hair saying,
"You're welcome, Ruhi!" He kissed the side of her head, making her heart filled with warmth and her tummy with butterflies!!
The staff standing to attend them in there, are freaking shocked I'm telling you!!! Since it's their first time seeing their hukum with any lady, let alone and smiling,hugging her and being so much affectionate towards her!!!
He pulled out the chair beside him for Ruhanika, instead of in front of him so that they can be close. (😏)
Ruhanika thanked him while sitting and settled the flowers on the table.
"Okay, so let's order first, so we can talk till the food comes." Ruhanika said. Abheer signaled the waiter to come and take order.
"Order for me as well." Abheer told her. Ruhanika nodded and ordered their food. Ruhanika noticed that Abheer's face instantly became void emotions seeing the waiter coming towards them.
"So, the rumour about you being not so approachable man is true, I guess!" Ruhanika said once the waiter was out of their sight.
Abheer frowned at her question, not understanding what she meant.
"Yes, you suddenly became so serious, when the waiter came to take the order. Why is that?" Ruhanika said. Abheer just shrugged hearing her.
"You might find this silly but, there is this reason behind this." Abheer said.
"And what is that? Care to explain hukum sa." Ruhanika said in playful tone.
Abheer decided to play along,
"Sure, why not baisa. So as you know I'm a business man, most of the time it's assumed to be weak when you show your emotions in business world, especially while dealing with some clients or facing your rivals. Though I know it's a silly thought, I've experienced it really is helpful, over the period of time. Addition to that, I belong to Royal Family to, and most of the time need to attend their problems, this really helps me to calm my mind in difficult situations, making it easy for me to deal my problems.
Plus, this emotionless face makes me a mysterious personality, which kinda suits for a hukum sa!" He concluded winking at her.
Ruhanika clapped with impressed face,
"Well said, hukum sa, well said!" This cause Abheer to chuckle at her, making Ruhanika smile too.
"No, but really, you were kinda like a mysterious person to me too, until I met you. I can tell that, this is the assumptions of only ones those who have not met you. You are like a sweet heart even to the strangers, so far I've observed!" She said smiling at him.
"I'm offended. You're literally destroying my image of cold ruthless person, declaring me as a sunshine!" Abheer said playfully making Ruhanika laugh at him.
Soon their food arrived. Ruhanika politely dismissed the waiter, when he was about to serve. Like a typical indian woman Ruhanika started to serve Abheer first. When she was about to serve herself, Abheer held her hand. Ruhanika looked at him with questioning eyes.
"The way you served me, I will serve you." Abheer said taking the bowl in his hands. Ruhanika smiled at that.
Their lunch was filled with most of the Ruhanika's talks and Abheer was silently hearing her blabbering, occasionally responding when she asked some questions.
"Would you like to have some dessert?" Abheer asked wiping his mouth.
Ruhanika's eyes glinted at that, and she nodded her head with mouthful of food.
Abheer chuckled at her face,
"So what should we order?"
Ruhanika gulped the food in her mouth before answering,
"Can we have gulab jamun please? I really want to eat them!"
"Ohh, how can I forget you would never ask anything other than this for dessert?!" Ruhanika grinned at that.
Abheer ordered for the dessert and was waiting for Ruhanika to complete her food. Don't blame her, Abheer served her more than needed, and the logic was that she is feeding his princess and should eat more. But Ruhanika being Ruhanika, can always create a little space in her tummy when it comes to gulab jamun!
"What happened about the deal with Agnihotri's? I didn't hear anyone saying that the signing process is done." Ruhanika asked once she was done eating and waiting for dessert.
"Yes, it's almost complete. Others are actually thinking of arranging a success party and sign it itself in there, but I refused it." Ruhanika frowned at that.
"Why so?"
"Coz my princess is still too small. And if the party is arranged, all the family have to be there, which includes you. She is too small to be at any business parties. And I don't trust anyone with her safety other than family."
Ruhanika's hands warmed at his words.
How more soft-hearted can you be Abheer ji!!! Even in the success of yours, you are considering comfort of my baby!! No man can be as compassionate as you towards their family!!!
Ruhanika thought.
She held his hand which was on the table and said,
"You don't have to consider her in any company decisions Abheer ji. She is just a baby anyways. Please don't cancel your celebration just for her sake! I don't think it's a good idea. It's your hardwork, your employees' hardwork. They all deserve this celebration."
Abheer smiled at her keeping his other hand on hers and gently squeezing it.
"How can you say that, Ruhi? My princess, you and my family are my priority over anything. Of course, you all be considered while taking any decisions. Besides, I don't think a party would be so worth it just to sign a deal. Dadasa too agreed to my this decision. We were anyways about to arrange the party for launching event. We can have the celebration then." Abheer said.
"Dadasa agreed? But why? Instead he should convince you for the celebration. And what about the other partner. Do they have no objection?" Ruhanika asked.
"Of course not. 'Family over anything!' is their motto too. Aur agar baat dadasa ki hai, toh unke gudiya ke comfort ke alawa unhe koi cheez nahi chahiye!" He said earning a chuckle from her.
(And if we talk about grandpa, nothing is more important than their princess's comfort!")
"Yeah, yeah. He is kinda whipped for my baby!!" Ruhanika said laughing.
Our baby!! Abheer's heart screamed!
"So when are you going to finalise the deal?" She asked.
"This weekend. Agnihotris will be coming home for lunch. We can do the little celebration there." Abheer replied.
"Hmm. That is nice idea too!"
When Ruhanika was serving them dessert, Abheer's phone rang. He looked to see Sameer calling. He picked it up confused, as he told Sameer to not disturb him unless it is very important.
"Hello."
"Hello, hukum. I don't know how to say it, but some blunder has happened."
"What happened?" Abheer questioned with his straight voice.
"Ummm.... The Ita...Italians just landed in India! To be more specific Jaipur!" Abheer's eyes widen at his words.
"What!" He asked shocked.
"Ye...yeah. I just got to know from our hackers who were on duty to inform about arrival of Oberois! He was with them too!"
Ruhanika sensed some tension seeing the line of worry on his forehead and anger in his eyes. She grabbed his hand, making him look at her and questioning him with her eyes. He immediately calmed down and shook his head indicating nothing.
"We will talk when I'll arrive at company. I'll be there in 15 min." He hung up the call without hearing any response of Sameer, who was sweating there for his dear life.
"Did something happen?" Ruhanika asked worried.
"Nothing to worry about." Abheer said giving her assuring smile.
After eating their dessert, they got up from their seat going towards elevator.
Of course, Abheer did not paid as its his hotel!
The staff on the roof top who were standing in the lobby, bowed their heads to Abheer.
Ruhanika thought to complement them for their food and service.
"Hello! The food and service here was really amazing. Right Abheer ji?" Ruhanika nudged him to say something.
"Yeah, food here in here is one of my favourite! Keep it up guys!" Abheer nodded at them. They all stood their shocked when Abheer said something to them.
Ruhanika smiled when he appreciated them and said,
"Yeah. Thank you so much for today!"
They all smiled at her words and manager said," Do visit us again mam. Thank you for coming!"
Ruhanika smiled at them. Abheer kept his hand on the small of her back and other in his pant pocket. He guided her towards elevator and pressed the button down to parking area.
The staff breathed the sigh of relief once the door was closed.
"Oh my god, hukum is really intimidating!! His aura literally screams respect whenever he walks into the room!!" One of the female chef said.
"On the other hand, the mam with him seems so sunshine kind of person right?" One of her companion said.
"Most importantly, he was with a girl today, like kind of date! Ohh my god, is she going to be our future Ranisa?! I'm so excited!" The first chef said, earning nods from others.
"Me too! You saw how he was smiling when she arrived!! My god, he has one of the charmest smile I've ever seen!!" Her other companion said making her eyes widen.
"Hukum sa smiled?!?!" She (chef) asked shocked.
Others nodded at her question.
"Ohh but you didn't see that right. Yes, you were in the kitchen at that time!" Manager said teasing her.
"Guys, you all are so bad!! Shit, I missed one in the life time opportunity to see hukum smiling! You all are so cruel, you could have sneakily clicked a picture for me to see na." She sais sulking.
"As if! Didn't you remember, the first thing he said when he came, was to keep all our phones in the locker." Manager said. Others laughed at her whining.
Meanwhile Abheer messaged Shekhawat to come with car in the underground parking.
They both went outside the elevator once they reached. Ruhanika saw Shekhawat standing by the entrance and bowed to them, when they came in his view.
Abheer turned towards Ruhanika saying,
"Shekhawat will drop you home. I'll be going to company and be home by dinner time hmm. Message me when you reach." He side-hugged her, making Ruhanika smile. Shekhawat was looking at the floor all the time. (😁)
Abheer turned towards him saying,
"Drive safely." Ruhanika bid him goodbye and sat in the car. Abheer stood there until her car move out before going to the company.
