Jhanvi

The party is great and though I was so far with Aarav, meeting people he introduced me as his wife, I couldn’t help letting him continue with his circle so I could have some fresh air. The party is at a pub of a seven-star hotel in Mumbai with an open terrace where you get to see great views of the city from. I wanted some seclusion because introducing myself as Jhanvi Raichand was fine, but the moment people asked me about my professional life, I was blank. Aarav has to let me lead the Charity Trust again and I might need his help and support in the beginning, at least until I get all my memories back. Regarding the RS Group, I might quit. Sikand Charity Trust needs me the most. I head for getting another mocktail for me, whilst quickly texting Aarvi’s Nanny to know what my baby is doing. She has a playdate with her school friend whom she hadn’t met in a long time. So, she’s occupied in our absence.

“That kind of man species is sexiness personified.”

I hear two women around my age make that comment looking inside the party hall. They are beautiful and definitely talking about the handsome men who are inside. Coincidently, I happen to take the chair next to them to enjoy my mocktail. It’s cranberry and I like the taste. Though I am away from Aarav, he doesn’t miss glancing at me every time I make a movement.Sweet. After I assured him today I am not leaving anywhere, his intense side is back and that’s written all over his face even right now that he wants to take me home and dive inside me.Could happen tonight. If he demands, I might give in because the man has waited too long. We also have a lot to sort about my accident mystery, and I can’t wait for him to narrate a few glimpses of our lives together so that I know what type of couple we were. But amidst all this, I’m loving the kind of intimacy we both share, like the one we had in the bathroom this morning.

“Too hot to handle.”

The whispers from the two women next to me bring me out of my stupor, only this time they realize how loudly they said that. One of them wearing a red dress turns to me and smiles coyly.

“Sorry you had to hear that. We were just gawking at someone.”

“That’s completely fine. Why should only men have all the fun.”

My reply makes them giggle.

“You are definitely like us,” the one in the dark blue gown mentions, stretching her hand towards me. “I’m Ananya Chopra, and she is my bestie, Nikita Bajaj.”

“Hello to both of you.”

I give them both a quick hug instead.

“Singles?” I ask and they both laugh again.

“Happily married to our respective partners. Our husbands are part of this event but thank God we don’t have to do the regular routine of meeting and greeting. They are busy inside so we thought of gawking at someone other than them.”

“Cool choice. So, who is the lucky hunk who’s got the attention of you two?”

“There..” Nikita points in the direction where Aarav is speaking to two handsome men. Both the men he is talking to are tall, charming and drool-worthy but again, my eyes are only on Aarav Raichand. The way he speaks, that mouth reminds me how it felt hot on my body. The mere remembrance of our morning scene waters my mouth. When will he get bored of this party and we’ll head home again?

“They are coming here.”

Ananya’s voice forces me to look at them and I realize Aarav is walking with those two handsome men towards us.

“Hope I look fine.” Nikita adjusts her dress and I hold my laugh.

“You mean the guy in the black suit is the one you were talking about?” I inquire.

“Not the black suit one. He is Rajveer, Ananya’s husband.”

“Oh. Then the man in the off-white suit?”

“No way. That’s my Rithwik. Though he looks great tonight, we both still can’t get our eyes off that Grey suit one.”

Damn!! That one is my husband. Aarav Raichand. I suppress my laugh and play along.

“I see.. What’s so good in that one? I think he just looks fine.”

“Girl” Ananya squeals. “You either have a bad taste in men or you should check your eyesight. The Grey suit guy is no less than an eye candy. Just look at him.”

I am looking.In fact, I agree with every word they say about Aarav. His personality is beyond perfection.And he is mine.

“Hello.”

The three men join us. Aarav is still opposite to me though his gaze is like a laser directly set on me.

“That’s my wife, Ananya,” Rajveer introduces to Aarav and Ananya flaunts her smile before reaching her husband’s side.
