When You Are With Me

20 - Yours Forever

As soon as Bondita reached Shyama's room and opened the door quickly, she saw-- Shyama blowing his nose on the tissue paper in between his cries. Whilst Celicia sitting beside him forwarded another tissue paper to him.

Anurag stood behind her and peeped at the scenario as if a little kid.

“What happened Shyama? Celicia, you are here too”, Bondita demanded, inhaling sharply.

"I don't know. He called me and is crying since I came. He didn't tell the reason", Celicia retorted and rubbed his back, comforting him.

Anurag whilst feeling thirsty grabbed the bottle of water on the table. Drinking water.

Bondita moved towards Shyama and gently asked, "Shyama, Is there anything bothering you? Your health didn't seem better either"

He pouted and placed his both hands on his belly, he caressed it a little and wailed, "I AM PREGNANT!!!"

Anurag spat the water he was drinking in a fountain manner.

Bemused, Bondita and Celicia furrowed and blinked looking at each other. "W-What!?"

How can he be? When the love-connection took place. It was supposed to be after marriage.

"No, you are not pregnant!" Bondita yelled.

"Don't shout, I am with the child!" He cried.

"Congratulations!" Anurag exclaimed, spreading his hands.

"Amazing Man. I never heard a man pregnant. You would be probably the first one. The First Pregnant man on Earth".

Bondita glared at him.

"I will teach you kid-- how to use roller skates. Bondita you became Maasi, and Celicia you became Aunt", He added, to which Celicia downed her head with a miserable expression. She wanted this but not this way. Why he is pregnant?

"No, I am very young to be a Maasi", She raked her hands on her tresses.
"AND HE IS NOT PREGNANT!"

"I am not anybody's aunt either" She glared Shyama.

Somnath shook his head and left towards the backside, where it was empty. No one was there. He is bored here.

Abruptly, His Kurta was pulled harshly from his waist, making him bend. Tapur left it and whispered in his ear, "Don't mind, but may I say something".

He straightened back making a weird face and ask, "You could have kindly asked me. Don't you have manners?".
From the start, he never liked people from small villages. They are illiterate and of low standards. Bondita was, and here her sister is.

"Say!"

"You are WEIRD! Here your Kaka was embarrassed, my ThakuMaa went scared, and you were grinning. Then you came out. Didi was right, her elder brother-in-law was a mysterious character", Tapur expressed dramatically.

“Ex Brother-in-law”, he corrected. "And Kids shouldn't say more than needed and beyond their age", he yelled slowly.

"I'm not a kid", she huffed. "ThakuMaa says I'm a grown-up. I am twelve and a quarter!".

"Huh, you're… a kid" He smirked and twisted his face.

She gnashed her teeth with a furrow and rose on her toes, managing to match up to his shoulders with struggle. "See, I am tall as well".

Somnath smirked and placed his palm on her head, "Be blessed, little kid", He teased.

She landed back with a pout, "I'm not"
