The cousins all gathered around the mango tree on the field.
"So... You guys are together?"aru questioned both adya and ahaan.Ahaan was sitting leaning on the tree and adya was sitting between his legs leaning on him,his head was positioned on her shoulder,he had his arms wrapped around adya and his all attention was to the trishul hanging around her neck.

It was awkward for all other seeing the great Ahaan Varma being a cuddle person.

Aaron was trying everything in him to not drag his little sister away from ahaan

Aarav had a I knew it look.Akash was disturbingly calm about it.Avni was secretly taking their pictures.

"Uhhh about that..." Adya was unable to finish the sentence. She was looking at ahaan hoping he would answer but ahaan just graciously glanced at her and was now kind of playing with the trishul ...?

Adya actually gave a questioning glance at ahaan.What the actual fuck is he doing, how old is this man to play with a pendent.

"Ahaan, could you please answer, what relationship do you and my sister have for you to give your trishul to her"Aaron needed an answer

This time ahaan gave his attention to Aaron , he know how Aaron is as a brother.
"Aaron , I like your sister.And i would do anything to keep her with me"

" So you guys are dating" aru confirmed.

" How dare you to keep that away from me" avni was complaining.

Ahaan gave a pointed stare towards avni, akash glared back at ahaan literally asking him to swallow back whatever shitty words he was about to tell avni.

Adya who noticed both the men ,gave avni her reasoning.

" Avni , it all happened quickly, we didn't even have time to understand it ourselves"

"But still..." Avni was pouting by now.
Akash face palmed himself, why ..why did he have to marry a woman child.Then again he adores children ,exactly why he is a paediatrician.

"Avni come here" akash said and pulled her to himself keeping her locked in his arms.

Aru sighed.
Wow, more PDA. she miss her Shiva.

Aru excused herself and went towards the house.Aaron was still not satisfied but he kept quiet ,tomorrow is a big day for both his cousin and sister, he could get more answers then, so he followed soon after aru leaving with aarav.

Akash took avni to pond side which was a bit far from the mango tree giving both the couple the much needed space.

Ahaan - Adya✨

"Ahaan"

Ahaan turned his head towards her and captured her lips in his.He took her upper lip and bite it

"Uhh"

He kissed her like she is his.

"Speak little witch" he stopped his sweet torture on her lips, allowing the poor woman to breathe

" What are we supposed to say tomorrow, my dad will be furious and you already saw Aaron.
He was ready to drag me away from your arms"

"But your brother know better than not to keep you away from me"ahaan was now kissing on her jaw.he cannot stop himself from touching her.
Gosh, he was indeed addicted.

" Ahaan " she called again.

" Marry me Adya"
Ahaan was not asking her, he was telling her.

" The fuck" his little witch was shocked.

"What the fuck do you mean by marry you,
and are you seriously proposing me by leaning on a mango tree"she was looking at him like if he was on any drug

" I am serious little witch, and do you think I will throw you a romantic proposal, if so you are so wrong"

" A girl can only hope"

" Sure thing, but you were aware right?
You saw it coming , didn't you?"

" I mean I did ask your trishul" she said now holding the trishul.

" And the trishul around your neck indicates only one thing,  that we are end game."he replied and gave a quick peck on her lips.

"So tell me little witch, are you ready to fight with me for the rest of our lives"

" Ofcourse ,why not, free subscription to lifetime entertainment ,I am in"

" Wonderful. I can't believe we are talking about our marriage as if we are talking about what movie to watch today "

"Well.... That's us"

"Hmm" and again he goes back to kissing her.

Akash -Avni ✨

"I can't believe they kept it secret from us"avni was complaining, again.

"Darling, I think they were in some kind of situation, we both know how ahaan and adya are, it takes time for them to understand their feelings towards eachother"

" Oh come on akash stop supporting them, let me rant for some time.
And i thought you were angry at ahaan"

" I was , but that trishul around her neck is the answer to all my questions to him .
So I am okay now."

" I think that these non living things like trishul and rudraksh have more importance in our family than any other living beings "

"Well if that 'non living things' belongs to Akash and Ahaan  , then sure it have more importance."he smirked and tightened the hold on her.

"Now that the 'important things' are with us.
Do we have more importance in your lives"she said turning in his arms now facing him, her hands behind his neck caressing his hair.

"I am sure adya is important to ahaan  even before the whole trishul drama .

But I can double assure you that you are more than important to me, and no it is not because you have two of my precious possession but because it's you , Avni."

She kissed him , she didn't want to voice it out her kiss is saying it all, that, akash is as important to her as breathing is.

"Speaking of possession, i still have that small cute ring with me."she said after breaking their kiss.

"You do? But why , it's just a fake ring"he was surprised that his little wife still have his other favourite possession.

--flashback--

Akash and Avni was children during that time, but he still remember his little avni crying near the mango tree.
Adya and aru loved to climb the mango tree during those times and they still do.
But little avni couldn't, because she was just too little to climb the tree.
Akash saw his little cousin crying and couldn't stop himself from comforting her.

"Avni what happened "akash asked.

"I want to climb the tree " she was continuously.

" Avni stop crying, you are too little to climb,you can climb once you grow up.okay..?"

"No . I want to climb NOW "she cried more loudly now.

Adya and aru was already sitting on a branch and were desperately trying to pluck mangoes.

His other cousins were playing on the pond side.So it was only him near her, he cannot leave her to crying.

"Can you please stop crying, i will give you anything you want" akash was desperate to stop the little kid, his ears were hurting hearing her cry too loudly.

" You will give me anything I want..?" Avni asked, her crying now slowed, her big doe eyes shining.

" Anything you want" akash could finally take a breathe, the kid has slowed down

" Then, I want that ring" she pointed her fingers towards his left hand forefinger were his favourite ring was.

" But avni this ring is big for you"

" But I want it" she again started her crying, now more loudly than before.

"Okay , okay here it is "akash removed his favourite ring without even thinking and gave it to his crying little cousin

Avni smiled and walked away towards the house but now tightly holding his ring in her tiny palms.

Akash saw her happily leaving and smiled to himself, atleast she stopped crying.
But he wondered why avni would want that ring, it was just a fake ring , not much fancy.
And he cannot believe himself that he gave away his favourite ring just like that.

--flashback ends--

" I don't know but I still kept it, its in our home, i will show you when we reach back home"she replied.

"Mmm" he don't know why but he was feeling happy by hearing her answer. Happy that avni kept the ring for years.

"Let's go back its getting dark and tomorrow will be a dramatic day, come "avni said now dragging akash back towards the house
