After getting freshen up,Priya came and woke ram to get started for the day. Ram got ready and came down for the breakfast. Everyone was already having their breakfast Ram was little hurt but masked it quickly with a smile and wished everyone a good morning and proceeded to sit, while Priya came with the freshly made hot aloo Paratha and served it Ram. Ram asked her to join for the breakfast so she settled beside him to have her breakfast.
While eating, nandhini started the conversation
Nandhini: Ram are you busy today?
Ram little excitedly told that he is free today and just have one conference call to attend thinking may be his mom want him to stay home for the day but was disappointed when reason was told,
Nandhini: That's great ram actually I want your car since my car is in for service .I need to do few shoppings for shubham 's birthday party and I have a party of a close friend to attend in the evening.
Ram hid his disappointment and said no problem mom you can have it for the whole day. Priya silently watched the way her husband's heart broke but she owed to herself that she will make his birthday a very memorable one.
Later everyone went to do their work.Priya came to her room and saw ram attending his call.she waited for him to end the call. when ram finished his call ,Priya came near Ram and asked
Priya: Mr.Kapoor if you are free can you please come with me to the temple.
Ram: But Priya we don't have a car now.
Priya: It's not a problem Mr.kapoor I have already asked the auto wala bhaiya to pick us.If it is okey for you to take an auto.
Ram: No problem priya.we can go by auto.I will get ready and come
Priya: ok Mr.Kapoor I will wait for you in the living room
Ram went to change his cloths while thinking why Priya never wished him then thought may be she doesn't know.He brushed the thought aside and got ready to find her waiting impatiently for him.
Both went together to the temple for the first time after getting married with their own will.Ram felt so happy as he for the first time felt that they are behaving like a normal couple. He was glad to come with her in auto than a car.As Priya is sitting very near to him. He was enjoying by admiring his wife. After reaching the temple, Priya bought the Pooja thali and both went inside the temple.priya gave the thali to the priest and both closed their eyes to pray.priest started the Pooja saying Ram's name and sun sign which surprised him as they didn't say any of their names.when priest came to offer the Prasad to Ram and Priya
Ram: how do you know everything about me maine toh aapko kuch bhi bataya nahi tha
Priest: your wife yesterday came and arranged for this special Pooja along with distribution of foods and dress to poor people nearby.
Ram was pleasantly surprised that Priya did this for him
Ram: Priya when did you planned this par kyun
Priya: Mr.Kapoor first please come and distribute the gifts, everyone are waiting for you.we will talk later
Ram:par Priya
Priya: come on Mr.Kapoor
With Ram's insistence together they distributed everything.everyone blessed them wholeheartedly and went away.
Priya: lets sit there for sometime Mr.Kapoor
If it is ok for you.
Ram: it's absolutely fine Priya. Infact I was going to ask the same thing to you.
They both sat in the temple with comfortable silence between them.
Priya: Mr.Kapoor yeh mere tharaf se apko ek chotasa gift
By saying this Priya gave ram small heart shaped Jewell box with a beautiful ribbon tied in it
Ram: what is this Priya
Priya: you will get to know when you open it
Ram opened and saw beautiful gold chain with small heart shaped pendant.
Ram: chain?
Priya: I know that you can afford more than this easily.But this is from side. The locket can be opened Mr.Kapoor.
When ram opened he saw a picture of his mother and father on either sides.
He was so touched by this thoughtful gift that he immediately hugged Priya thanking her forgetting everything.
Priya felt overwhelmed seeing his reaction.
Later he parted from her and thanked her again. He asked her to make him wear it.priya felt shy but she did as he said
While making him wear the chain Priya whispered near his ear a happy birthday which made him look at her shocked and both had a little eyelock which was broken by the temple bell.
Both parted immediately.
Ram:Priya yeh sab
Priya just smiled in response
Ram: I thought you don't know about my birthday
Priya: aise kaise Mr. Kapoor Mera pati ka pehle birthday Mera saath and how can I forget that.
Ram was just overwhelmed by her actions.
He was smiling like a fool seeing her.Priya to smiled seeing his happy face.
Priya: open your mouth Mr.Kapoor
Ram: without asking anything he opened his mouth
