Episode 30

Aryamaan's POV

I woke up and checked the room not finding Neharika, she must be in kitchen preparing breakfast. I did my morning routine and went downstairs just to find the dinning empty. I sighed big with satisfaction that Maa must be in temple and Sujal is still getting ready.

I hurriedly went towards kitchen to see Neharika who was cooking but a small smile was playing on her lips. How badly I wanted to back hug her inhaling her fresh rose smell. I again sighed big shaking my head but she heard me and looked at me in panic asking "Wait, I will serve breakfast. I don't know I am late, I was just workin-"I stopped her blabbering saying "I just came early to check on you, don't get panic." she left a breath she was holding because of my sudden arrival. She nodded and started doing her work, I went behind her umm should I? She won't refuse right? Whatever she is my wife and a hug won't make her pregnant now.

Why am I hesitating so much now? It's not because of me but her. What if she pushes me? What if she doesn't like it? Then what? How many times you have pushed her away, how many times you have made her feel bad. If she pushes you then let her but at least I want to try and I will get a hug.

I slipped my one hand on her waist naahh naked waist and another one on her shoulder, feeling my touch she froze. The rolling pin she was holding left from her hand staying still on floor. I exhaled my breath and put my head on her shoulder saying "Just few minutes."She didn't react anything towards me so taking that as a yes I held her more close to me and because of that she left a little whimper. I held her body securely in my arms and honestly I was feeling good, complete. Danish was right, I want her close to me so close that no one can snatch her from me, no one.

I never got lusty thoughts about Neharika not Neharika but no one, before marriage I had a lot of desires for Mihika because we were in relationship but after my marriage those things also halted. After ages I kissed her and my hormones woke up but more than lust I have a lot of respect, adoration and love for this woman who is still in my arms.

I pecked her shoulder and she shiver saying "Someone will see" I again tightly held her to me and was about to say when we both heard a loud voice of Tanuj "Badi Maaa..." It was increasing. We hurriedly parted away and that's when he entered in kitchen saying "Oh Bade Papa you're in kitchen?" I nodded covering saying "Came for water." "Umm but water is outside also and why are you both looking so awkward suddenly?" hearing him I shook my head diverting his mind saying "Leave this, by the way why are you here?"He slapped his head saying "Oh God I forgot, Ryan Bhai and Bhabhi arrived. They are just about to leave the car, that's why I came to call you both." Hearing him Neharika said "He already came? Wait don't let them come inside, I will come within a minute with an Aarti Thal." He nodded running saying "Come on Bade Papa, join us."

Of course I will join them, will go to office a little late today. She went outside first breaking that awkward silence. I went behind her. Maa was doing their Aarti, they entered and Turvi and Tanuj took baby in their hand adoring over a little new member of family.

She was sleeping peacefully in their arms, Turvi asked "Bhabhi did you think of a name for baby?" Rhea pouted saying "I had thought for a boy but had girl so no." Ryan also shook his head. I spoke like a whisper "If you don't mind can I suggest?"Hearing that everyone snapped their heads towards me and Maa said "But you didn't even give name to your own child and want to give name to Ryan's kid? Better to have a good name then?" hearing her I nodded little saying "I'm just suggesting it depends on them." Rhea and Ryan nodded saying "Tell us."

I took a deep breath saying "Aditri" they looked at each other and then me saying together "What a unique name Dad!" I nodded saying "Do you like it?" they nodded saying "Like it? Nahh loved it!" Maa and Papa said "What is its meaning? Don't say random words Arya." I rolled my eyes saying "Aditri means Goddess Laxmi Maa, don't you even know this."
