You Own My Heart ( Completed )

Recap: Aryan and Sanju miss each other.

**

The next morning, Sanju woke up early, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness about returning to the office. She dressed in a blue and white chudi, her smile bright as she turned to wake Aryan.

He groggily rubbed his eyes, blinking up at her. The sight of her standing there, looking ethereal in the morning light, made him momentarily forget everything else. He was completely entranced.

Sanju chuckled at his dazed expression. "Good morning. Get ready."

Aryan smirked, his voice still husky from sleep. "Good morning, sweetheart."

Reluctantly, he got out of bed and went to freshen up, while Sanju made her way downstairs for breakfast. When he joined her at the table, he casually reached out, intertwining their fingers.

Kowsalya walked out of the kitchen carrying casseroles and glanced at them. "Sanju, are you going somewhere?"

"Yes, Maa. I'm rejoining the office today," Sanju replied.

Kowsalya looked concerned. "Is your health okay now?"

Sanju nodded reassuringly. "Hmm, I'm doing good."

After breakfast, they prepared to leave.

"Okay, see you in the office," Sanju said, stepping toward her car.

Aryan hummed in acknowledgment but didn't let her go without ensuring her safety. "Ranjith, make sure the guards follow her at all times."

"Everything is arranged, sir," Ranjith confirmed.

Aryan nodded in approval before getting into his own car and heading to ARC Towers.

Sanju entered her cabin and immediately felt a shiver run down her spine. The memories of that terrifying day resurfaced, making her uneasy. She closed her eyes for a moment, recalling Aryan's reassuring words. Stay strong, Sanju.

Determined, she pushed the thoughts aside and focused on work, checking Aryan's schedule and following up on pending tasks.

Picking up her phone, she dialed Pavi.

"Hello, Sanju!" Pavi's voice was filled with concern. "How are you? What happened all of a sudden?"

"I'm fine, Pavi. I'm back in the office. Let's meet at lunch and talk, okay?"

"Okay, da! I've missed you so much."

"Missed you too. See you soon."

After hanging up, Sanju got back to work.

Meanwhile, in his cabin, Aryan leaned back in his chair, his eyes fixated on the closed curtains separating his office from Sanju's.

"Why won't she open the curtains even now?" he muttered to himself. "She's torturing me."

Frustrated, he contemplated his next move. Should I call her? He smirked. She'll ask why, but I'll manage.

Without another thought, he picked up his phone and dialed her number.

"Sanju, come to my cabin."

"Hmm, okay," she replied.

When she entered his office, she found him seemingly engrossed in his laptop, not even sparing her a glance.

Looks like sir is really busy, she thought.

"Aryan?" she called out.

He responded without looking up. "Hmm, Sanjana. What's my schedule today?"
