ARJUN'S POV

As I was adding the final touches to the dish, Siya walked into the kitchen and embraced me from behind. With a playful tone she remarked, "You're looking too hot and sexy in this apron working in the kitchen, my Purushan." Turning around, I was surprised to see her awake and asked what's this Purushan mean siya smiled and said that means Husband. Oh then what do you call wife she looked at me and said they call Pondati

I teased her saying " So Pondati when did you get up?" She smilingly replied, "When you were talking with your mother-in-law Purushan." I looked at her playfully tapping her head and said "So you were spying on me?" 

Siya replied with a mischievous grin, No I was admiring my husband who is working so effortlessly in the kitchen and looking so hot and sexy in this apron. I couldn't help but smile at her sweet words.

I responded, I thought to surprise you but you surprised me Pondati. Siya with a serious expression said "Purushan, I am telling you something very seriously." I looked at her intrigued, and asked, "What's that Pondati?"

She declared, "I don't know if you have cooked for anyone or not in the past but from now on you are not going to cook for anyone apart from me and no one is going to watch you cooking apart from me. Her possessiveness and love made me smile and I responded "Jaan till now I haven't cooked for anyone so no one had that chance to see me in this 'hot' avatar as you say. But I can't promise about the future. 

Siya, with her hands on her waist questioned "What do you mean you can't promise about the future?" I decided to playfully tease her and replied, "Yeah, I might want to cook for someone else and with her."

Her immediate response was, "I am going to kill you, Arjun. Don't try to rile up my temper." I hugged her and said, My sherni in the future when we have a daughter, then I would love to cook for her and with her. Siya looked at me thoughtfully and surprised me by saying, Till now I always wanted a daughter but now I have decided I want a son.

I asked, "Why like that?" She made me laugh with her reasoning saying, "It won't look good if I feel jealous of my own daughter, who will be getting more attention than me from my husband.

I smiled as Siya playfully exclaimed, See you are thinking about our future daughter today itself. I don't know what happens if we have a daughter in the future. In response, I affectionately pulled her cheeks and teased her, "Jaan you will be my first priority i think even before our daughter.

Siya couldn't resist teasing me, shouting, "What do you mean you think, Arjun?" I playfully closed my ears and said "Don't shout my Sherni. Let's think about it when the time comes. Till then give a rest to this topic. Now taste my rasam and tell me how is it. 

We sat down and I served the rasam to Siya eagerly awaiting her response. She took a bite and remarked "It's tasty, Arjun. As a beginner, it tastes so good." I couldn't help but smile at her compliment "Really?" I asked, and she nodded in affirmation.

Siya declared "You have other dishes, Arjun. I'm not going to share my rasam with you. It's so tasty that I will eat it by myself." I insisted but Jaan let me taste it and reached for the spoon. However, she swiftly slapped my hand away saying "It's for me so I'm going to eat it." I smiled and admitted "Okay." started savoring the simple joy of sharing a meal together.

After our lunch, as Siya started clearing the table, I suggested, Siya you should rest. She turned towards me and replied Arjun I'm fine now. It's just a period and I'm getting bored sleeping all day.
