《Accidental Nikkah》CHAPTER 59
Advertisement
The best time to spend a day out is when you feel free and happy. It's not where the sun shines or the moon lights, it's when you feel like spending it.
Aayan was seated inside his office and was doing his work with utmost concentration. He had work piled up on his desk and he was exhausted. The big day of the collaboration with Kings International was coming closer and work was increasing with it. All he wanted to do was close his eyes and relax for a few minutes.
Just few minutes.
Aayan signs and stretchs his neck left and right to relax the cramps. A knock is heard and Mason walks in holding his infamous tab. He stands before Aayan's desk and speaks up, 'Sir, the alterations have been done.' he hands Aayan his tab and Aayan takes it. He goes through the tab and hands it back to Mason, 'Okay. What about the marketing and media?' 'That is also in process, sir. It will be done by today.' Mason informs. Aayan nods his head and goes back to the file before him, 'Make sure everything is done. And is the meeting with Nicholas King set for tomorrow?' Aayan asks, writing in the file, 'Yes, Sir. Mr.King will be here at 10am.' Mason informs him. Aayan nods his head and excuses Mason.
After a few hours of constant working, a subconscious smile starts to grow on Aayan's lips. The smile slowly stretches to form a large grin. Yes, Aayan was thinking about Ruhee. The conversation he had with her yesterday had comeback to him. He was in fact involved in cause of her uncle coming to their wedding. He didn't wanna see her sad at their wedding, and also it is her wedding dream, and how can he not help fulfil her dreams. And it was so worth it.
I love you.
She had said it and he had heard it and he loved it. He really wished to see her, but work was in his way. Just then, the door banged open and walked in Zubair Mustafa, like he owned the building. Well, he partly did, but this was Aayan's office. He slams his hands on the desk and says, 'Lunch time!' Aayan signs and says, 'I don't have time for lunch.' he continues writing in the file. Zubair scowls and pulls the file away from him. The sudden movement startled Aayan. He looked up at Zubair and says calmly, 'Give it back' Zubair shakes his head in denial.
Aayan signs and gets up from his chair, 'Zubair, I am already very exhausted with all the work. Don't annoy me further more and give me back my file.' Aayan says moving towards him, but Zubair kept moving back and soon they were chasing each other around Aayan's office, 'If you really want it, come and get it.' saying this, Zubair quickly ran out the room and Aayan followed. As soon as Aayan stepped outside, he stopped dead in his tracks. He couldn't believe his eyes, he rubbed them and saw even more clearly. He pinched himself and winced soon after. There standing before him was Ruhee, with a picnic basket and an adorable smile.

Aayan moved closer to her and asks in the most softest voice, 'What are you doing here?' Ruhee lifts the picnic basket to show him and says, 'We are going on a picnic lunch.' Aayan just stares at his beautiful wife. Clearing of someones throat brings him out of his trance and he turns around to find Zubair, standing like he knew all this, 'I helped in this surprise.' that proved he did. Aayan smiles at Zubair and Zubair smiles back at him. Zubair turns to Mason and says, 'Aayan is off for the day, bring the rest of the work pile to my office. My brother needs a break.' he was now looking at Aayan and Aayan smiled gratefully at him, 'Now get lost before I take my words back.' Aayan nods at him and grabs Ruhee's hand and they walk towards the lift.
They get off on the bottom floor and every employee their gasps. They had never seen their boss with a girl before, that to hand in hand. From the corner of his eye, Aayan could see the receptionist wink at Ruhee and Ruhee just blushed hard. He could never get over her adorable blush. They got in the car and on the streets, 'So, where are we going?' Aayan asks her and she says, 'To the park.' 'And the park it is.' Aayan's says and drives to the park.
He parks the car and they get out. He opens the backdoor and pulls out the picnic basket, carrying it inside the park. It was a simple park for elders to walk freely and childrens to play. They walked in passing by the playground, where children were playing and by some benches, where elders were having their afternoon chat. Ruhee and Aayan walked into the grassy lawn and spread the picnic blanket and sat on it.
They sat cross legged and looked at each other with pleasant smiles. They look around the park and smile to themselves at the pleasant atmosphere. Ruhee opens the picnic basket and takes out five medium sized boxex, two Mason jars filled with juice and two water bottles, also a tissues box.
She looks at Aayan and speaks up, 'I have made many finger foods. Simple, tasty and tummy filling.' She opens one box to reveal sandwiches, 'Chicken Sandwiches,..' she opens another box, 'Ham wrapped cheese sticks,..' she opens the third box, 'Chilli meat balls,...' the fourth box, 'Minced meat samosas and finally,..' she opens the last box to reveal, '... Shawarma.' She looks at Aayan to find him looking at her.
She frowns and asks him, 'Why are you looking at me and not the food?' Aayan smiles and replies, 'I was longing for looking at you and not the food.' Aayan notices a slight pink rising on her face but doesn't say anything, he was enjoying having her near him. Ruhee clears her throat and says, 'Enough of that, now eat.' she picks up a shawarma roll and hands it to him. He nods at her and unwraps the roll to take a bite. As soon the roll hit his taste buds, his mouth exploded with flavours. Indeed, Ruhee was a great cook.

'Ahh, I am full.' Aayan says patting his tummy. Ruhee smiled at him as she kept the boxes back in. Aayan looked alot free now. He had removed his coat, loosened his tie and rolled up his sleeves. He rested his hands on the blanket and looked around the playground to see kids playing. Ruhee extends her legs and arms before her and stretches. She makes a squeaking sound and Aayan looks back at her and let's out a small laugh. On hearing the laugh, Ruhee turns to look at him and smiles, 'It is a really pleasant atmosphere.' she says, sitting straight, 'Yeah, it is.'
Ruhee was looking around the park and Aayan was looking at her. Without thinking, he rests his head on Ruhee's lap. Ruhee turns startled and looks at her lap to see Aayan's head laying there. He had his eyes closed. Ruhee's face flushed up and she looked around, and thankfully, no one was paying them any attention. She looks back to the relaxed Aayan and speaks, 'Aayan, what are you doing?' in a very low voice. Aayan doesn't bother opening his eyes and replies, 'This is really comfortable.' Ruhee bites her bottom lip as she sees a growing smile on Aayan's face.
Aayan slowly opens his eyes and looks into her Raven black eyes, 'You have really beautiful eyes.' he says to her. She smiles at him as she placed her hand in his hair and runs her fingers through them, 'And you have silky hair.' Aayan closes back his eyes and signs. Ruhee's fingers combing through his hair was really relaxing. Soon, he falls asleep.
Aayan opens his eyes to look at the dark sky. He frowns and looks to his side to see Ruhee looking at the sky as well. Realizing where he was laying his head on, he sits up. Ruhee immediately looks at Aayan to find him rubbing his eyes, 'Slept well?' Ruhee asks him with a smile, 'What is the time?' he asks her, 'Almost 7pm.' Aayan's eyes go wide, 'I was sleeping for four hours, on your lap?' Ruhee nods her head, 'Why didn't you wake me up?' He asks her, 'Well, you were sleeping so peacefully and looked so relaxed. How could I have waken you up?' 'Your legs must feel numb by now!' Aayan exclaims, worried. Ruhee rubs her legs and says, 'Nah, I am fine. Plus, you look very cute when you sleep.'
Aayan scrunches his nose and says in disgust, 'Cute? I am not cute!' Ruhee smiles at him and says, 'Oh, you are when you sleep. And that to like a baby.' Ruhee teases him, seeing him spike, 'No, I am a handsome young man.' Aayan replies, 'As you say, cutie.' Ruhee says to him and laughs to herself. She starts to get up, but plops back down. Aayan looks at her worried, 'You okay?' he asks her. She nods her head and replies, 'Yeah, just can't feel my legs.' 'Oh god, I'm so sorry.' he apologizes, 'No No. I am fine, I just need to sit for a while and will be back to normal.' she says, 'This won't do, it is almost 7pm and your parents must be waiting.' he informs her, 'Your right.' she says and looks at her legs.
Aayan stands up and puts one of his arm around her back and the other under her knees, 'What are you doing?' Ruhee asks him and soon, she got her answer. In a swift movement, Aayan lifted her up in his arms and started walking towards his car. Ruhee places her arms around his neck holding him tight, 'Aayan, put me down.' she scolds him frightened, 'So that you fall? No way.' he says to her. She looks around and says to him, 'People are watching.' 'No one is going to care. I am a man carrying my wife in my arms. This is a romantic gesture to others.' he says to her.
He reaches the car and places Ruhee back on her feet. She wobbled a bit, but held onto Aayan's arm. He opens the car door and Ruhee gets in,' You sit here, I'll go get the basket and blanket.' she nods her head and he leaves her there. He goes back, folds up the picnic blanket, places it in the basket. He wears his coat and jogs back to the car. He places the basket in the backseat and gets in. He starts the engine and they head home.
Best lunch ever.
