Di (unreluctant but still worried) : Ma, why to spend so much on this trip, we'll....
Ma : Here (pulls out a honeymoon package voucher and hands over to Di) Go pack your bags now.
Di's mother gives both of them a cold look of order and leaves.
Riv : I think my expenses will be covered by the company so....
Di : Ohk, I'll see to it, just share the details of your stay I'll get myself the same.
Monday at school, Di checked out the details sent by Riv. Kine wraps his arm round Di's shoulder. Kine looks at Di's phone.
Kine (whispers) : What are you looking at?
Di (teasingly) : Planning a honeymoon for us. Wanna join me?
Kine (reciprocates) : Always....
Di about to say something but realises that it's a wonderful idea to take Kine with them but on second thought Riv wouldn't be sad that she would be left out on herself, alone, at times. Thinking for a while Di said,
Di : In the upcoming vacation, we're going on a honeymoon....
Kine (surprised) : Huh?! When? Where? How?
Di explains everything to him, Kine wasn't fully agreed to the idea but yet accepted.
Fer (out of the blue) : What is my ship plotting here??
Both (taken aback) : Oh my gosh!
Kine : Atleast make some noise as you walk....
Fer (teasing) : Were guys discussing something which I can't be included in.....
Kine : It's about...
Di (hastily) : We spent time together last Saturday....
Kine a bit surprised, why didn't Di tell Fer the actual thing while Fer smiled and blushed pulls Di's chair a bit aside
Fer (softly) : So how's he....(looks at the confused face of Kine) in bed????
Di regretted telling Fer this info too. It is too embarrassing to express it to anyone.
Di : It was.....(embarassed as well as blushing while thinking of it) He was too good to handle.... (shyly smiles)
Fer (super happy screams without making a noise) : Aaaah..... Bye, gotta fangirl with my new bestie....
Sways her chair a bit a far to her table to get phone.
Kine gets up from his chair with a groan and walks funnily out of the staff room. Fer and Di exchange glances and after a moment of observation, Fer questions Di with her looks. Fer couldn't believe if the things on her mind were actually true. Di too embarrassed to reveal the real incident escaped. Di and Fer part ways and go to work. The day passed somehow, Kine in pain, Di in worry, Fer fangirling and others confused as well as finding it funny. After school, a message from Principal popped on everyone's phone, a bright smile appeared on their faces.
Marduk (very joyous) : After a very long time this lady has done something so wonderful, winter vacation for us too.....
Aether (happy yet frowning a bit) : Look at the duration, just a week...
Bimu (calmly) : Be happy with what you get. Greed is not good, children....
Ms. Sushimi : Finally I'll get some time with my family. I missed a lot of family time because of work....
Everyone agrees that happened to them as well. Being a teacher was quite troublesome but the love for students (pure hearted little devils) made them worry less. On this note, everyone after submitting their reports for that month went home. Before leaving, Di whispers in Kine's ear.
Di : The vacation begins next Saturday and our.....honeym..... vacation begins on Sunday morning. Reach an hour before boarding alright....
Kine : I thought you were kidding..... Like for real, we are going on a honeymoon.....?
Di : Pack the best of your clothes.....
Kine (making a cute face, scratches his head) : Shall we go shopping together tomorrow???
Di nods, goes home. At Di's home, Riv literally drags Di holding his wrist to the bedroom.
Riv (a bit angry) : What is this?????
Di (confused) : What is what....?
Riv (furious) : You didn't tell me about yesterday. Like how could you forget to tell me huh!?
Di (comforting her) : Softly, tell me what is it that I forgot.....
Riv (softly) : About you and Kine..... I mean your first time (Di makes a face as if saying "This was what you were angry for") What?!Every detail and MOC is important okay. (Coldly) Now go on, feed me with the tea...
Di gives each and every detail but he skips the part where he tried to be bossy and injures Kine and as soon as he completes....
Riv (upfront) : Liar.... I can never believe that you went out with Kine and wouldn't do anything embarrassing. No, I can't believe.... Tell me rest as well.
If Di was stubborn to not tell them Riv was even more stubborn to know. At the end, Riv won and Di told her, "the actual thing that happened".
Riv (nods as if she already knew this part) : I knew it. You come home without embarrassing yourself. Never gonna happen. You got such a good boyfie, be grateful. If it would've been me, I would....
Di (teasing) : As if huh! Find yourself someone and stop clinging to me.
Riv : I'll cling to you forever, even after I die. I'll become a ghost and tease you after that too. (Makes a teasing face like a child)
Di throws a pillow at her. The two besties then dwelled into a pillow fight. The next day after school,
Kine (hands over the helmet to Di) : Let's go then.....
Di : Like this? I mean let's just first wash up, have lunch and then....
Kine (buckling up his helmet) : I know this, my cutie pie....
Kine's condo,
After washing up, Di walks out of the bathroom in a robe and sees Kine cooking, half naked wearing shorts, an apron and a whole lot of cuteness. Di goes behind him and hugs. His hands swayed from his chest to waist and then even below, Kine holds Di's hands and stops him.
Kine : Woah, woah, relax. I'm all yours. I'm not running away, please. If you seduce me we're gonna be super late and you'll be in deep trouble my honey...
Di (moving his fingers on Kine's chest) : Just a few minutes won't hurt though. Moreover you look so eatable.....
Kine (shrugs) : Move, let me cook. Go dry your hair, though I wanted to do it yet you do it today and come fast to eat....
Di (flirty) : You or the food...?
Kine (shy, covers his face with one hand and gives Di a gentle push) : Go now....
Di dries his hair and sits on the kitchen counter. Kine turns and places the plates over the platform. After a while of eating, Di is all flirty, trying to seduce Kine. Running his fingers all over Kine's uncovered, soft yet muscular, built chest.
Kine : You tryna seduce me..... (so done with his cutie) You called upon this...
Kine kisses Di very passionately. Every inch of him, devoured. The dry air turned humid in mid winter. Kine's hand went to loosen up Di's robe. Almost naked both of them, panting, smiling at each other, Di leans in for another round but Kine stops him.
Kine (holding Di from his arms) : Relax..... We need to go shopping as well, remember... Let's go....
Di frowns yet unreluctantly gets dressed and goes out with Kine. After 2 hours of shopping,
Di (sitting on a table in a cafe) : Shopping is so tiresome... (sighs) I can't go on anymore.... No.
Kine (teases) : Then how are you gonna manage on our honeymoon....
Di (gently hits him) : Will you just shut up.....
Finally the day ended with teasing and shyness. Time flew by, it was finally the day of boarding. Di anxious stood restless, outside the airport, at a distance, Riv talking to her team, noticed his restlessness. She excuses herself and goes to Di to obviously tease him.
Riv (teasing) : Waiting for your honey.....
Di shys off and turns his head to the other side. Kine arrives all dressed up for his boyfie, though in casuals looks perfectly eatable and obviously Di can't take his eyes off. Kine approaches them.
Kine : (smiles) Do I look inappropriate?
Riv : Not at all...(adds) according to me. Of course cause someone here just can't take it anyway... (chuckles)
Di : (catches hold of his throbbing heart) Let's go then...
Riv (Happy yet a bit sad) : If Kine's also going with us that means both of you will make me feel left out.....
Kine (comforts) : Not at all, our beloved shipper....
Di (teases) : So how about you find yourself a handsome foreign hunk over there, then....
Riv : Not gonna happen.
Di : We'll see....
Di and Riv continue to tease each other like kids while Kine, fed up with these two goes ahead and they follow. After a long flight, they reached their destination, checked into the hotel rooms. At the reception,
Di : We booked two rooms, a junior suite and a.... (hesitates)(the receptionist stares at him) honeymoon suite.....
Receptionist (smiles) : May I know the name of the person who'll be staying in the junior suite...
Riv (interrupts) : It's Riva from Horizon Limited, Project Manager... And (looks at her ship giggling together) give them their room fast or else I'll not be responsible for anything that happens (gives a very wide smile)
Both Riv and the receptionist look in the direction of Di and Kine who stood at a distance being lovey dovey.
Receptionist (chuckles): Sure ma'am, here you go... (hands over the key cards to Riv)
All of them went to their respective rooms. In the evening Riv was supposed to present the project to the clients while Di and Kine went out for a walk. In the conference hall, Riv explained each and every detail to the client's team. Although uncomfortable in a room dominated by lustful eyed men, she kept her calm.
Riv : So that's it from my side. If anyone has any doubts can raise it.....
A female attendee : (politely) So how long do you think it would take us to have a hold over your market...?
Riv (answering) : It should probably take...
A male attendee (in an inappropriate tone) : Miss... Did you prepare the presentation all by yourself?
Riv (trying not to punch him) : When we have an extraordinary team sitting to do all of this stuff, do I need to do it all by myself?
That male attendee : (to everyone) Women can't go even a step without men yet dream to be on the top. (to Riv) But your presentation was awesome (Riv clenches her fist)
Riv's boss (trying to avoid any mishap) : Why don't we guys move to dinner.... I hope your senior Mahek will also be joining us there....
"Mahek did they say, it can't be. Riv lost in her own world thinks for a while and shakes herself and brings herself back to reality.
That and only female attendee : Hi Ms. Riva, your presentation was really awesome, I was so stunned upon seeing your confidence.
Riv : You're just flattering me.. Call me Riv though, I'm not kinda used to being called Ms. Riva...
Mali : I'm Mali by the way..... I'm sorry on the behalf of my colleagues. I don't know why they're so full of themselves. However, our Senior on this trip is the only and really good, (fangirling) soft spoken, cute glimmery eyes, super handsome....
Riv's boss calls her out. Riv and Mali share contacts. Riv leaves.
Riv's Boss : Don't even think of going against anything they say now.....(softly) even if you feel uncomfortable..... Don't ask me any further. just you need to know, we ought to bring this deal home....
The fight was over but somebody held a grudge. In the dining hall,
That male attendee (proposes a toast) : This evening is already very good, let's make it even better.... (hands over a glass of wine to Riv) By letting our Host propose today's first toast.....
Riv, unreluctant slowly trying to reach out for the glass, notices another familiar yet strange hand holding it first.....
Mahek : Wouldn't it be better, if I proposed the toast, Mr. Khom....? (smiles)
