Live In/Life Partners (Devakshi) #Episode 4

He was holding her securely,preventing her from falling down. Her eyes were closed with fear. She was grumbling something under her breath which wasn’t audible to him despite with the proximity they were sharing. Their faces were few inches apart from each other yet so far. He shook his head and smiles seeing her antics.

Finally after cursing twinkle under her breath,sonakshi opens her one eye slowly. Her eyes pooped out seeing the person. It was dev whom she met yesterday,twice and he is standing infront of her again. Not even standing,he was holding her securely by her waist. She blinks her eyes rapidly,not able to believe in her eyes and thought it as her illusion.

Are you ok……;dev asks respiting her thoughts. Her eyes widen listening him and then she comes out of her thoughts.

Ahh……..Yes,i am fine…..;she says smiling at him,still standing in the same position. Her hot breathes hits his cold skin. And the very next sec when she realise about their proximity,she freed herself from him and gives a confused smile to him. He giggles sensing her discomfort towards their proximity.

It’s ok….You don’t need to feel uncomfortable….I was just helping you ……Btw i think you have to pay extra money for this bag. It’s quite over weight……; he says to divert her mind and smiles scratching his head .

Really…. Gosh……This girl will never grew up……I told her not to take too much things but no…….She didn’t pay any heed to my words….Now what will we do….;sonakshi says biting her nails.

Hey…..relax i was just kidding……. It’s not that heavy……;he says wondering at the changes in her expressions. Such a expression queen she is;he thought to himself,seeing hundred expressions on her face,just in few secs.

Are you sure…….Sorry…… Ahmmm…..Thanks…….No sorry…… No.No.No………Thank you……. Thank you for the help; finally she thanked him after grumbling with her words. He again looked at her with amusement. Such a confusing soul she is.

I think we should move inside otherwise we’ll be late ;he says jerking himself from thinking too much about her confused state and holds her bags to take it inside but she stops him inbetween.

It’s ok……I’ll manage….; sonakshi says placing her hand on the bag which brushes with his hand,unknowingly.

Stop being so formal Miss Goddess ;saying this he moves inside before she could protest or say something. Sonakshi just shrugs her shoulders and follows him.

They goes inside the airport and first decided to look for twinkle so that dev will able to help them and then he’ll join his family. While looking for them someone patted on sona’s shoulder and when she turned to see that person,she was grabbed in a warm hug by Riddhima who was smiling ear to ear to see her. Dev looks at them with a “I didn’t expect that” look while anuj and twinkle were standing behind Riddhima.

Dev was little surprised with his sister’s gesture towards sonakshi because Riddhima was totally a different case as compared to other girls. Being a friend with a girl wasn’t her cup of coffee. She never ever had a girl friend because her brother was always there for her whenever she needed someone and when she grown up and learnt the thing that every girl whom she talks or try to be friend with her,has only one motive which is to be connected with dev because dev had and have a charming personality for which every girl would wander around her only to get some attention of dev. Her possessiveness towards dev was the same which he haves for her and The thought of a creepy girl drooling around her brother would irk her to the core so finding the best way to save his brother from those creepy girls she chucked herself from being a friend of a girl and this causes her falling in love with anuj with whom she spent almost half of her life till now. This is the first time when she is being so friendly with a girl and thus infront of dev.

Shocked!!! Me too……..It seems like her pregnancy hormones are compelling her to do the things which she hates the most……;anuj mocks in dev’s ear and chuckles seeing his amused look. Riddhima was all busy talking with sonakshi and twinkle that she didn’t noticed that dev was holding a bag. Ahummm……..Ahumm…….;Dev cleared his throat to grab their attention who were so lost in their own talks.

Oh sorry…. I forget to introduce you with them…….Meet my Veer ji…….and my hubby…….; Riddhima says sliding her one hand in dev’s and another hand in anuj’s. The spark in her eyes while claiming her relation with them was something worthy. She smiles ear to ear looking at her lifelines which causes the reason of both boys’ smile too.

Guys meet sonakshi and Twinkle…….. The girls who……..;Riddhima was about to complete her words but dev cuts her in between.

Who helped you yesterday…… Hye twinkle…… Nice to see you again….;dev says smiling at them. Twinkle waves her hand in a hii and smiles seeing him. Riddhima removes her hands from their’ and looks at dev with a confused face.

I met them yesterday itself and personally thanked them for helping you…;dev says calmly and smiles at sonakshi.

Awww…….That’s so sweet of you Veer ji…;saying this Riddhima goes and hugs him tightly. She always feels lucky to have a brother like him who can go to any extent for her happiness. And this gesture of him made her feel blessed to have him.

So You are the one………Hello…… I am anuj…..Anuj Mehra…..Husband of this beautiful lady…..Pleased to meet you….;anuj says shaking his hand with sonakshi.

And you both make a good pair with each other…..;sonakshi saya adoring them as a beautiful pair. Riddhima gives her a ear to ear smile in return.

Ahmm Thank you so much for the help and i think we should take your leave now…you guys must be getting late…..;sonakshi says taking her bag from dev’s hand and than Riddhima notices that dev was carrying sonakshi’s bag.

Where are you guys going???Are you guys alone or your family is also here??? ; Riddhima asks.

We are going on a holidays and first time without our parents…..It’s gono be so much of fun….;twinkle says on sonakshi’s behalf,jumping on her feets with excitement.

Where ;a curious Riddhima asks. Somewhere in her heart she wanted them to going on the same place where they were going. She herself didn’t know that why was she behaving like this. But she felt a strange conection with them that she so wanted to spend some more time with them.

Goa….;the moment when this word left from sona’s mouth,Riddhima literally jumped a little in her place aware enough of her current state.

Awesome…….Then we’ll get alot of time to catch up…….;an over excited Riddhima said with a hope.

Yes…We’ll catch up there also…….;sonakshi says in assuring tone.

Ohh freak…..Sona!!! ; twinkle says biting her tounge under her teeths.

Now what twinki……Don’t tell me that you haven’t confirmed our tickets…..;sona says giving a death glare to her and she nodded in a yes.

I totally forget about it……When i came inside i met with them and……….

And you started talking with them and forget about it…..Wow such an important work……;sona says sarcastically. And twinkle fakes a smile in return.

Now please stay here……I’ll be back soon….;sona tells twinkle and was about to go but dev stops her.

If you don’t mind may i……;dev asks.

Ofcourse you should go with her Veer ji…;Riddhima says in her demanding tone. Anuj and twinkle also nodes in a yes.

Ok we’ll join you soon….And anuj please take care of the bag buddy. It has twinkle’s whole wardrobe inside it ;dev jokes and earned a deadly glare from both the sisters who wasn’t pleased with his statement. Seeing their expressions dev shoves his laugh back in his mouth and motions sonakshi to walk further so that he could follow her.

Both reached at the ticket counter where a man was shouting at the lady for muddling with his booking. He was shouting at her continuously. The lady tries her best to explain him but he wasn’t paying heed to her words. People starts gathering there to have their share of entertainment. What else can be expected from them. Dev and sonakshi were also standing there to get some more info about the matter. The man by now started dragging the matter unnecessary. The girl had tears in her eyes by now. She was pleading him for giving her a chance to explain but he was adamant with his dicision.

Dev couldn’t tolerate his bashing and interrupted in between them to save the girl.

Excuse me……This is not the right way to talk with a lady sir. Atleast give her a chance to explain….; dev says to the man who was getting mad at the lady.

How can i be so calm with her. I booked my tickets for the business class but thanks to this great lady…..She took the whole amount of it yet given me the tickets of economy class……..And now she is saying that they are full and bla bla bla….;the man completed his side of story. He was right at his point but the way he was behaving with the lady wasn’t right.

It happened by mistake sir………;the lady says in her meekly voice.

I don’t know anything…..I booked it for this flight and i want it by hook or by crook…….and if you don’t do this then i’ll sue you;the man says in his anger tone.

Please sir don’t do this to me…..;The lady pleaded him.

Wow…..That’s great…..Can you please change my tickets with your’…… I wana shift it from business class to economy class….Please sir…..Please…; sonakshi says in a over dramatic way,folding her hands infront of him.

Dev looks at her shockingly. Her over dramatic way was totally unexpected. The man who was shouting like a maniac too looked at her with amusement. Before they could ask or understand her meaning sonakshi was quick to change her tickets with that person who didn’t have anything to say now. He just took the tickets and goes from there silently.

Thank you so much mam…..You saved me today…..;the lady says giving her,her’ economy class tickets.

No need to thank me……..Just took extra care of your special guest…..;sonakshi says with a mischievous grin and winks at her.

Have a safe flight Mam…..Have a safe flight sir…..Hope you guys have a good time……All the best….;the lady says thinking them as a couple. But Before they can correct her misconception sonakshi’s phon rings. It was twinkle who was calling them to hurry up because it’s time for them to fly off.

No ways m not going in economy…… Why you always dig your nose in other’s matter. Why should i pay for your digging nature ;twinkle says after listening the whole story. She stood few steps aways from sonakshi placing her hands on her waist and twitches her nose in anger.

I am not asking you…….I am informing you…..And you don’t have any option so you better follow me or else you can go back home…..i can go alone also….;saying so sonakshi hands over a ticket to twinkle and goes from there to complete the check in formalities. Twinkle stomps her feet on the floor and makes a cry baby face. Dev along with Riddhima and anuj were watching their fight and chuckles seeing their antics. Till now sonakshi has boarded in into the flight and was waiting for twinkle’s arrival.

She was waiting and waiting for her to come and join her but there was no sign of her. She remembers about her statement and wonders if twinkle actually took her words seriously and went home,leaving her alone. Sonakshi gets annoyed thinking of her departure. She closes her eyes in anger and rests her head on the seat. Just then a man came and sits on the seat beside her. Sonakshi opens her eyes expecting the person to be twinkle but get shocked seeing dev settled down beside her. He smiles at her and sonakshi rubs her eyes with her hands thinking that she is again hallucinating about him.

You are not hallucinating i am here….;dev says chuckling over her antics.

Don’t tell me that you exchanged your ticket with her ;sonakshi asks in amusement.

If you can exchange your tickets with a stranger then why can’t i……..Atleast i changed my ticket with a lovely girl whom i know;dev rejoins her and she looked at him open moutedly.

Ohh like that….Ok then enjoy your journey ;saying so she rested her head back on her seat and closes her eyes.

Ok fine she requested me and i agreed ;dev say giving in infront of her. Sonakshi smiles one sided and opens her eyes.

Don’t lie….I know that you yourself would have given her your tickets….. Stop showing your gratitude…… I didn’t did that much big thing….;sonakshi says in a confident voice. Because she observed his all gestures from the time he met her and she knew that he was just helping her because she helped Riddhima. It’s quite annoying for her,she hates taking favours from others. Dev looks at her with amaze because she was absolutely right,he himself requested twinkle to exchange her ticket with him when she was going to check in.

Why did you exchanged your tickets with that jerk ;dev asks bluntly narrowing his eyebrows.

I don’t know….;sonakshi says rolling her lips outside.

You are crazy….;dev commented.

I know ;sonakshi says,yawning. she was feeling bored with his continuous interrogation. Dev gives a one sided smile to her and rested his head on his seat.

The flight has been take off till now and they were in the sky. They were silent from the time they ended their talk. Dev didn’t initiate a talk further thus keep mum. He was staring at the ceiling of the plane when he felt something heavy on his shoulder,he looks down to see what it is and saw sonakshi’s head on his shoulder. it’s not been ten minutes when they were in sky and she slept. She was drowning in her slumber unaware of her surrounding. She was sleeping like a sleepy head which she was. Afterall,sleeping is her favourite hobby.

He smiles seeing her sleepy face. She looks much better while sleeping rather than in her conscious state ;he thought to himself seeing her drown in her sleep.
