********************************************

Dev & Sona both looked at each other worriedly...........who could it be at this hour, they wondered............"Bunny ek kaam karte hai, tum jaake chup jao aur main jaake darwaaja kholti hoon...........ok!!!"............Sona got up and started walking towards the terrace door as Dev ran behind her and stopped her by holding her wrist.........."tum paagal ho gayi ho kya Cheeku?..........agar koi chor hua toh?.........woh tumhe nuksaan bhi pohuncha sakta hai..........main tumhe akele jaane nahin doonga....."...........Dev displayed his protective side as Sona gave him an "are you for real look"............"Dev.........like seriously??..........hum ghar ke andar hai.........aur abhi thodi der pehle tumne mujhse kahaan tha ki tumhe ghar ke andar aane keliye koi raasta nahin mil raha hai bahar se............aur ab tumhe lag raha hai ki humare ghar pe chor hai...........kahan se aayega woh ........aur sochlo agar aa bhi gaya, toh woh pehle neeche rooms mein jaake chori karega na.......yahaan terrace par kyun aayega?..........duffer"...........Sona smacked his forehead as Dev refused to budge off his stance..........."Dev don't be a fool...........agar baba hue to?............iss baar pakka pitayi karenge woh tumhari..........aur main nahin dekh sakti tumhe maar khate hue......."..........Sona blinked at him dreamily, a sly smile adorning her face as if showing off how deeply she loved him..............Dev shook his head in dismay and dragged her upto the door, his hold intact in her wrist............."tumhe sacchi lagta hai ki papa mujhe peetenge aur main chup chaap khada hoke unki maar khaunga...........ab toh bass faisla ho hi jaye.............ab to mujhe bhi dekhna hai ki kaun hai darwaaje pe......."............saying so he opened the door slowly, while Sona clung on his hand, making unsuccessful attempts to stop him from doing so.............

As the door opened up for the person on the other side, Sona quickly closed her eyes, expecting the worst, while Dev pasted a foolish smile on his face hoping to mellow down the person by flashing his killer smile............as both stood clutching on to each other, Asha entered the scene with an angered look on her face............"mumma aap?........"...........Dev exclaimed as Sona slowly opened her eyes to observe the intruder............"yeh sawaal mujhe tumse poochna chahiye Dev.........tum yahaan kya kar rahe ho?"...........Asha questioned him as Dev stood numb hoping Sona would cover up for him............."aur Sona tu yeh inn kapdoan mein yahaan..........tum dono ne iss terrace ko koi restaurant samajh rakha hai kya?..........date par hi jaana tha toh kahin bahar chale jaate.........yahaan ghar pe kyun?.........."...........Asha smacked her forehead almost losing her patience as yet another fact strikes her mind............"ek minute............Dev tum andar kaise aaye?.........".........she starred at Dev expecting an honest reply this time as Sona spoke up this time.........."mumma, woh main door se aaya hai...........maine hi khola tha darwaaja uske liye.........."........she almost trailed off on her last words looking at Asha's gob smacked expressions............"tum dono ka dimaag kharab hai kya?............pehle hi Bijoy Dev se naraaj chal rahe hai..........agar unhone tum dono ko yahaan saath dekh liya to phir pata nahin kya hoga..........kyun karte ho aisi harkatein jisse baad mein pachtana pade..........".............Asha sat down on the bench dejected as Dev and Sona quickly neared here after closing the door behind them..............

Kneeling down infront of her, Sona grabbed Asha's hand as Dev followed suite.........."mumma, ismein Dev ki koi galti nahin hai........usne mujhse bass milne keliye poocha tha.........kyunki woh aaj subah jo hua, uske baad humne theek se baat bhi nahin kii na..........aur aaj main office bhi nahin gayi........warna wahaan mil lete............isiliye Dev mujhse milne aaya tha........"...........Sona elbowed him as he took her que and obediently nodded his head in agreement.........."office mein mil lete matlab..........tere office ka Dev se kya connection?........"..........Asha put forth yet another obvious question as Dev looked onto Sona for help.........afterall she was the one who created the blunder by bringing up the office fact..........."woh..........mumma..........mera matlab tha ki........Dev mujhse office ke baad milne aata na.........Dev ke office se bhala mera kya lena dena..........aap bhi na kuch bhi sochte rehte ho..........."..............Sona tried to correct her folly as Dev looked on silently, hoping that Asha would not catch their lie........."accha chalo ab yeh sab baatein chodo..........Dev tum abhi ke abhi ghar jaao...........isse pehle ki Bijoy jag jaye aur tumhe yahaan dekh lein, please tum ghar jaao......"............Dev and Sona let out a sigh, feeling content that Asha had finally believed them and also gave each other a sad look as Asha commanded Dev to head home...........with a heavy heart, Dev bid good bye to Sona and left to his place, as Asha and Sona retired to their respective rooms after seeing Dev off............

******************************

Sona changed into her regular nightwear and slid under the duvet besides Elena.........a sly smile crept on her lips, recollecting the moments she spent with Dev..............she blushed to her core, as she had flashes of her confession, Dev's reaction and their impending kiss............she sighed dejectedly as she felt remorse of not having a chance of experiencing her first kiss with Dev.............little did she knew that she had already been kissed by Dev on the night of her infamous drunken stupor...........she decided to glide off to her dreamland as her phone beeped with an incoming message............her face lit up immediately as she realized Dev had reached home safely and was not probably sprawling on the bed like her, waiting for sleep to take over him, but not before having a word with his lady love.........

"I hope mumma didn't scold you much..........."............it was his query full of concern for her............

"Nope..........why would she?..........we are legally married afterall.........N I guess she knows it's not a crime to meet up your hubby secretly........."............she replied with a fitting answer........

"actually I forgot to tell you something........."..........he very well knew how to make her curious..........

"what?..........."...........she probed impatiently............

She waited for him to reply back............but the wicked person that he was, he didn't reply for a hell lot of 15 minutes.............

"answer me Dev...........what did you forget to tell me?.........."...........she again pinged him .............hoping atleast this time he would oblige...........

"actually I had two things to tell you..........was thinking which one should a say first...........".............he replied smirking at his end.......

"how does that even matter?...........whatever it is, speak up now....."............her anxiety was getting the better of her..........

"actually I wanted to say that............

I LOVE YOU TOO..........MY DEAREST CHEEKU PIE........."...........he replied feeling confident that she would have calmed down now at the other end and would also be blushing profusely............

"now stop blushing and listen to what I want to say next..........

I WISHED WE COULD HAVE KISSED TONIGHT.........."...........came in his second message, thus making her toes curl up in anticipation............LOL he could actually gauge her reaction without even looking at her.........

"D...E...V..."............this was all she could reply, as her fingers refused to punch in words on her Smartphone keypad.............

"see you at office tomorrow Mrs. Dixit..........sharp at 8.30 a.m.......I wish to spend an entire half-an-hour with all alone with my gorgeous wife......I hope I'm clear enough Ms. Malhotra........good night, have a sound sleep..........and yes do dream about us........"..........he signed off as Sona texted a simply good night to him before going off to sleep.........the upcoming dawn had a lot in store for them............probably a new phase of their life...........together!!!!!

*************************

The next morning Sona woke up hurriedly, she had to be there on time as advised by Dev............they had to rely on such encounters now to be together...........she got dressed quickly and scurried down stealthily, careful enough not to wake up Elena..............as she was quite aware that waking her crazy cousin up would mean getting all the more late for office and inturn getting late to meet Dev...........she asked Asha to pack her breakfast sighting the reason that she had loads of work to be completed at office...........collecting her stuff, she dashed out of her house, quiet conveniently ignoring Bijoy...............she was hell angry with him as he had screwed up Dev, and also because he didn't believe in her when she needed him the most............riding her scooty at the speed of 40 she finally managed to reach office dot at 8.25 a.m..........."great!!!!!.......5 minutes are enough for me to reach Dev's cabin...........be all set Mr. Dixit..........your gorgeous wife is on her way........."............she flipped her hair dramatically and ran upto the elevator, as the guard gave her a confused look for being an early bird at office.............."ma'am aap yahaan iss waqt..........office to 9 baje shuru hota hai...........abhi tak to koi aaya bhi nahin..........sirf Dev Sir hi aaye hai apne kaam se........... "...........he filled her with the most required piece of information...........she smirked inwardly thinking her Bunny was already present to welcome her..........."haan pata hai..........woh actually maine kal chutti li thi na..........to Sir ne hi aaj jaldi bulaya tha..........kaam bohot haina......"............she reasoned out lamely, as the poor fellow believed in her cooked up story.......

Getting out of the elevator she glanced around to check if anyone was around..........finding her way clear, she moved towards Dev's cabin and knocked slightly on the door..............Dev exactly knew who it could be on the other side of the door..............he quickly settled on his chair and mouthed a stylish "Come In" to Sona............pushing the door ajar, she timidly entered his cabin, nervous and excited at the same time..............feeling just like a teenage lover..............she lifted her eyes to check out on Dev..............she felt her stomach churn as she saw him starring at her passionately................"get in quickly and close the door behind you".............he ordered her as she followed him obediently..............the doors automatically locked as she pushed closed them, followed by the blinds being let down.

Sona stood there fidgeting with her fingers as Dev's voice brought her back to reality..........

"Welcome back Ms Malhotra..........waise kal aap office nahin aayi..........kya main iski wajah jaan sakta hoon..........."...........Dev questioned her like a typical boss...........Sona who had by now understood that Dev was just playing around seeming very hard to be tamed, decided to play along............

"woh Sir, meri cousin aayi haina Mumbai se..........to use pick karne gayi thi...........aate aate late ho gaya toh office nahin aa paayi........."...........she replied, a notorious grin refusing to leave her face..............

"aap toh aise bata rahi hain ki aapki cousin nahin, koi US ka president aa gaya ho aapke ghar.........".............he teased her further............"aur agar office nahin aana tha toh aapko mujhse permission leni chahiye thi, jo aapne lena jaroori nahin samjha.........."...........he feigned to be a strict boss now.........

"Sir maine aapko call kiya tha...........par aapka phone not reachable tha..........ab agar aapke service provider ka network itna ghatiya hai, toh bhala main kya kar sakti hoon iss mamale mein?.........."...........she argued back, resulting in Dev's smirk growing wider...........

"Now this is the limit Ms Malhotra..............ek toh aapne mujhse pooche bina chutti li.........woh bhi aapne training period mein..........upar se aap mujhse behas kar rahi hai yahaan khade hoke.........isiki sazaa to aapko milni chahiye........."..........Dev narrowed his eyebrows, while leaving his table and moving towards Sona.........Sona's eyes widened seeing him approach her aggressively...........

Grabbing her by her waist he ran his fingers along her spine as she shivered in his hold............he ran the back of his other hand along her cheek, as his other hand held his hold on her lower back..........."itni badi galti karne se pehle aapko sochna chaiye tha Ms Malhotra, ki iss galti ki sazaa kitni badi hogi.........".............he whispered in her ears seductively as Sona shut her eyes, trying to sink in the numb feeling of being in such a close proximity with him............"par Sir, trainees to nadaan hote haina.......unhe yeh saare rules kahaan maloom hote hain........unhe ek aur chance milna chahiye......."..........she argued back, hoping not to melt like a puddle in his firm hold.........."yeh second chance dena mere rule books mein nahin hai Ms Malhotra..........main sirf ek chance deta hoon.........aur usmein fail hone par seedha sazaa milti hai, jaise ab aapko milegi.........aur aapki sazaa yehi hai ki aap sabse pehle apna kal ka saara pending kaam poora karengi.......right now......."..............Dev's lips brushed against her earlobe as she opened her eyes to figure out what exactly he meant...............she was shell shocked as she tried hard to analyze the hidden meaning of his simple words.........losing all his interest in the world surrounding him, he had focused his attention on her glossed lips..............realization hit her as she figured out the meaning of the phrase "pending jobs"...........

"Dev.........please.........yeh office hai......."...........Sona tried to pester him............."jo iss waqt khaali hai...........aur yahaan humare alawa aur koi nahin hai...........so no disturbance at all my love..........".........Dev completed her sentence, making her blush to her roots..........."Dev.........samjhne ki koshish karo.........sabhi log aate hi honge........office shuru hone mein sirf 20 minute bache hain..........".........she did yet another feeble attempt.........."wahi toh Sona..........poore 20 minute hain humare paas.........itni der mein to hum bohot baar.........."...........Dev trailed off with his words as Sona gave him an angered look..........."wahi main keh rahi hoon Dev..........sirf 20 minute hai...........common now be a good boy aur mujhe jaane do.........."...........she requested him as he was at his teasing best............"haww Sona...........tumhe mujhe kiss karne keliye 20 minute se bhi jyaada time chahiye........that's so romantic of you........".........he blinked his eyes dreamily as he received a hard whack on his upper-arm by Sona..........."yeh khayaali pulao pakana band karo Dev Dixit..........apne aapko itni importance dene ki koi jaroorat nahin hai!!!!!........jo tum chahte ho woh tumhe hargiz nahin milne waala.........samjhe.......".........she pushed him away with a jerk, and quickly ran and settled down on her table in the extreme corner of his cabin...........

"haan..........toh mujhe kya..........nahin karna hai toh mat karo...........main toh sirf tumhari khushi keliye keh raha tha...........ab tumhe hi khush nahin hona hai toh bhala main ismein kya kar sakta hoon?........."..............he pretended to be carefree while moving back to his seat............."Ohhh I see...........meri khushi haan..........aur kya main jaan sakti hoon ki yeh khushi mujhe kaise milegi bhala?............".............Sona instigated him further, acting all innocent..........."arrey tumhe kya pata biwi, first kiss ka experience kitna jyaada beautiful hota hai...........pata hai, insaan apni ek alag hi duniya mein chala jaata hai..........it's such a bliss...........mujhse poocho after all maine khud se experience kiya hai bhai..........hayee itni khushi shayad hi kabhi mehsoos ki hogi maine.......jitni uss raat ki thi..........".............he leaned back on his chair, going all praises over his philosophy of first kiss..........

Sona who was all annoyed now walked upto his table and grabbed him by his collar........."what do you mean by tumne khud se experience ki thi..........tum......tum kaise kar sakte ho?..........tum jhoot bol rahe ho na......."..........she shook him aggressively in her hold..........."common Cheeku..........grow up yaar......... I know ki main tumhara pehla boyfriend hoon, par you have to understand ki meri pehle bhi ek girlfriend reh chuki hai..........jo you know tumhari tarah oh-so-sanskaari bilkul bhi nahin thi.........aur dating mein yeh sab kuch chalta hi rehta hai.........."..........he acted all obvious, irking Sona even more..........tightening her hold on his collar she barked............."how could you Bunny...........tumne kahaan tha mujhse ki tumne uss Nuts ko kabhi kiss nahin kiya............phir ab tum yeh sab...........mujhe pata hai yeh sab tum mujhe jalane keliye bol rahe ho naa.......... I know you are lying........."............Sona was on the verge of breaking down now...........but Dev was in no mood to spare her.........."maine kahaan aur tumne maan liya..........kya yaar Cheeku, tum itni jyaada innocent kyun ho..........tumhe toh pata haina ki maine Nuts ko ek saal tak date kiya tha...........to obvio hai ki humne kabhi to ek dusre ko kiss kiya hoga.......ab humein hi dekhlo...........4 din hue hai dating shuru kiye hue.............phir bhi we were about to kiss last night........".............he plucked Sona's fists from his collar as she had started shedding her trail of tears..........."yaar Sona I tell you..........it's intoxicating...........jab dono ek dusre ke kareeb hote haina.........bohot jyaada kareeb.........and your eyes are fixed just on each other...........baaki saari duniya kuch maine nahin rakhti..........uss waqt jo feel hota haina..........woh koi bayaan nahin kar sakta shabdoan mein...........that moment when you are about to kiss........."...........Dev's words died off inside his throat as he felt his mouth clasped by something as soft as soft and delicate roses............his eyes automatically closed to experience the most blissful feeling of his life.............it didn't take him much time to realize that he was being kissed hungrily by his timid wife right here in his office.........his hands automatically went behind his back to get hold of the table for support as his wife lurched like a wild lioness on his poor petals..........she had held his collar for support, so that he had no chance of escaping her attack...........not that he wished to escape.............she tasted every corner of his rough lips before biting his lower lip to force him to part his lips...........plunging her tongue deep in his mouth, she continued tasting him, as Dev responded with equal fierceness, but alert enough not to take the lead...........he let her assault him so that she could get her desires fulfilled............after a hell lot of 10 minutes, she let go of him...........only to rest her forehead against his, panting heavily.........

"I hope I have completely erased her touch from your lips Mr Dixit...........dubara kabhi mere saamne uska naam mat lena..........warna sazaa dena mujhe bhi aata hai......".............she warned him, her chest still moving rhythmically to catch up some breath............pushing him away from her, she took a moment to take in his disshelved state...........she felt content as she saw him completely disoriented, smirking on her victory, she turned to make her move towards her desk, when his next sentence made her root to her spot.............."yeh waala cherry flavor tha na.........party waali raat kaunsa tha?..........if I'm not wrong was it strawberry flavored lip gloss........."............she turned around to give him an aghast look as he gave her a lopsided grin.........correcting his features, he sat back on his chair, rubbing his lips from the back of his hand he sipped water from his glass, as she opened her mouth to say something, but words didn't seem interested to fall out of her mouth..........."waise pehle waala iss waale se aur bhi jyaada lamba tha............and it was more sensous........aakhir tum hosh mein jo nahin thi............so you know, I was the boss...........and I thoroughly enjoyed it........"............he winked at her sheepishly, as she was about to punch him, but stopped in her tracks as Tina knocked on the door............she glanced at the watch to realize it was already time............she quickly made a dash to the washroom, ofcourse to avoid Tina as well as correct her appearance..........she waited in the washroom for Tina to move out..........as soon as she heard the cabin door clicking she picked up her things to get back in as her phone beeped............"aap bohot bholi hai Mrs Dixit.........vodka peene se koi allergy nahin hoti..........aapke lips to kisi aur wajah se swell kar rahe the..........." ..............pushing her phone back into her bag angered, she moved out of the washroom, stomping her foot hard.............giving a deathly glare to the devil, who was pretending to be engrossed in his work, smirking at her helpless state..........."you got to answer me Dev........... I'm not going to let you off so easily.....".........she thought as she swore under her breath to teach him a lesson for kissing her without her knowledge.........
