SID :
I walked into the dressing room freshly bathed, to see Minnie draping a saree.
That ink blue colour of the saree accentuating her fair skin, she looked etheral.
She was concentrated on making pleats, she didn't notice me coming to her.
I hugged her from the back, snaking my arm around her bare waist, I pulled her to me making her back collide with my chest.
She gasped surprised, her pleats falling down from her hands.
"Siddu you scared me. I have to pleat this again. Why do you always do that." She whined.
"Do you know how sexy you look? I want to devour you right now." I said pestering kisses on her neck.
"Sid.." she moaned closing her eyes, arching her neck to give more access, one hand on mine over her waist, other tugging my hair.
When I was about remove her blouse she stopped and turned to me.
"You always do this when we are getting late. Stop it Siddu" she said as she tried moving from me.
I pulled her back to me, this time facing me, I tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.
"What should I do. By the time I come to bed, you will be sleeping. You have been starving me for two weeks now. It's not fair." I whispered kissing her soft spot.
Her hands instantly found my hair, tugging them making me groan.
"I won't sleep today. Promise. I don't have patience to get ready again now." She said pulling away and pouted.
"Fine." I grumbled.
"What's with the saree? Any special?" I asked still holding her by her waist.
"Nope. Just like that. It's been a while since I wore one." She shrugged.
Smiling I kissed her nose and let go of her.
I was buttoning my shirt when Aara spoke.
"Did you talk to Prateek?" She asked pleating her saree again.
"Yea, we spoke yesterday. His lawyer is kind of willing to speak. But Prateek thinks it takes some more time for him to come out clean."
It's been 4 months since the incident. Few things happened in between.
Deepak and Naina got married a few weeks ago. It was a simple wedding, same as ours.
Prateek is persuading Vijay's lawyer to rat him out.
Prateek claims that they had a huge argument and as usual Vijay was the asshole. So the lawyer is not happy with him.
But he is still hesitant because of the 'professional ethics' and all.
We are hoping, it will be over soon.

"No Sanjay. Don't schedule it now. I have to go check on the construction site. Meet me there." Minnie spoke on phone, to her PA while coming to the dinning table.
She was checking a file while I was going through my iPad, when Sakshi came to serve our food.
"Sakshi I don't want anything solid. Just give me some orange juice." She said stoping her from plating the food.
"You have to go to the site. One glass of juice won't be sufficient. You know that right?" I asked scowling at her.
Instead of building a new building for the beauty studio, we bought an already constructed one and are remodeling it.
There are many changes that needs to be done and Minnie is taking this project very seriously.
She and her love for designing.
"I will be fine. I am feeling nauseous. I don't think I can stomach any food now."
Before I could respond she continued
"I had a sweet corn sandwich yesterday. I wanted to try it and see if it still feels horrible to eat or my taste has changed." She said with a sheepish smile.
"And?" I asked arching my eyebrow.
"Not only does it tasted horrible, I am feeling nauseous because of that." She said gaging.
"Eww stop it. I am trying to eat here." I said repulsed.
She doesn't like sweet corn. It's generally obvious that over the time tastes change. And she being her, tried it and the result is here.
"Take care love and try to eat something." I said kissing her cheek and closed the car door for her.
Nodding she left in her car, while I came to our office to get on with the meetings.

"Mam has specifically mentioned about the fish spa." The interior designer spoke.
"Do you want it to be in a separate floor?"
Me and Naina are in a meeting finalizing the setup for the beauty studio while Minnie and Deepu are at the site looking after the last minute changes for the building before we setup the equipment.
"No. We can't waste an entire floor for that." I said looking at the plan.
"Let's do one thing. Take half the floor in manicure and pedicure section and design it for fish spa." Naina said pointing at the floor that's dedicated to the pedicures.
"Just make sure that it should accommodate atleast 5 people. Then it should be fine."
I looked at her speaking so professionally like someone who has been in this field for so long.
I still wonder if she's the same Naina who threw a fit few months back when we brought up about this beauty studio.
A smile formed seeing her explain the preferences to the designer with ease.
I sat there calmly letting her lead the meeting. After noting down the changes the designer left us.
"Why are you smiling like an idiot? Did you hit your head somewhere?" She asked looking at me weirdly.
I scowled at her but then smiled.
"My little sister has grown up. Look at you taking the responsibilities. Did you realise that you lead the meeting now?"
"Oh!" She said when she realised what she did.
"Sir!" Harsha said worriedly as he barged into the room.
"Mam has fainted at the site. Deepak sir is taking her to the hospital. I just got the news from Sanjay."
I was momentarily transfixed in my position. Coming out of my shock I hurriedly got up and rushed to the hospital with Naina beside me.
I came running to where Deepu was waiting. The doctor chose the exact moment to come out.
"How is she doctor? What happened to her?" I bombarded her with questions.
"Calm down Mr. What are you to the patient?" She asked not answering my questions.
"I am her husband. Is she alright?" I asked trying to control my self from the anxiety.
"Okay. Nothing to worry. She is pregnant. That's why she fainted."
I was shocked. I couldn't respond.
"She is still unconscious, may wake up in sometime. You can go see her." Saying she left us.
"Congrats bro.! I am going to be an uncle!" Deepu exclaimed hugging me.
Minnie is pregnant! I am going to be a father!
Slowly I came out of my shock, a smile forming on my face.
Finally my face broke into a huge smile, I hugged Deepak back dancing in joy.
Naina was smiling as she joined our group hug.
