Sanyukta bit her lip, staring at her reflection in the mirror with her mouth formed into an 'o'. Her tummy was not big now but soon it will have a baby bump..
After Randhir left for work she found out that she's pregnant. And she has never felt so nervous and scared in her ENTIRE LIFE!
She knew RSS didn't like kids. Then now what? What if he doesn't like this news???
"Hey bhagwan raksha karna.." Sanyu chanted again and again as she kept holding that positive pregnancy test stick in her hand.
"Nahi Sanyu! Why will Randhir be angry or dislike this news? He loves you so much so he'll...ughhh!" she started pacing infront of the mirror before taking a deep breath.
"You are Randhir." she pointed to the mirror. "I have to practice with you."
"Guess who has a person in her stomach, Randhir??? ME! No I didn't eat anyone, I am having a baby!" Sanyukta screamed to the mirror before biting her nails. No, this one is bad!
"You want to see a magic trick Randhir? See this!" Sanyu raised the pregnancy stick and smiled at the mirror. "ABRACADABRA, YOU ARE A FATHER FROM NOW ON!"
Nooo...
She thought and sat down on the edge of the bed, groaning to herself.
This is gonna be difficult.

"Hey baby." Randhir spoke as he came home at evening. He undid his tie and looked at Sanyukta to find her smiling awkwardly at him.
"Randhir..I was thinking.. do you think we should color our room PINK or BLUE?" Sanyu asked smilingly, now he'll get the clue! Pink for girl, blue for boy, he'll understand she is pregnant and hence is asking this!
"I like blue. If you wanna do it go ahead, do what you want Sanyu." he shrugged, grabbing a glass of water as he busily talked to Jiggy on his bluetooth.
Attempt #1- FAIL!
~
Randhir and Sanyu sat on the dining table with everyone else before Sanyu suddenly got up.
"Randhir, can we both eat alone at our bedroom tonight?" she asked not even realizing how bold her words sounded. A smirk came on his lips while everyone cleared their throats, Renuka giggled while Harsh rolled his eyes.
"Why Sanyu?"
"J-just like that.. I don't like the lighting here." Sanyukta made up some excuse making him nod. He took his plate of food and went upstairs with her.
~
Randhir was sitting and eating before Sanyu bought a lot of bowls full of food. Not just food, but it was: BABY potatoes, BABY corn and BABY peas.
"Don't you just love all this?" she pointed to the bowls and he slowly chewed, gulping his food.
"Yes. It's good Sanyu. Enjoy." he chuckled and proceeded eating making her groan under her breath.
Attempt #2 - FAIL!
"What the?"
"Huhhh?"
"Did you just groan? What happened Sanyu?" Randhir asked concernedly.
"Oh.. actually..it's just that.. WE are tired." she rubbed her stomach a little.
He stared at her for a moment. "We? Who? You and who?"
"M-me and.. my big stomach, both are tired of eating so much." Sanyu blabbered nervously.
"Uhh.. okay." Randhir got up and left the room making Sanyu's head drop to the table as a long sad sigh escaped her lips.
Attempt #3 - FAIL!
~
Sanyukta looked at Randhir's sleeping form and pouted. He didn't understand her hints! She has to make it more obvious.
She took a pen and wrote 'YOU + ME = 3!' on the front page of his business file that he will see tomorrow morning.
~
Sanyu woke up the next day to find Randhir sleeping beside her, his arm was wrapped around her waist protectively and possessively and he doesn't even know that he is not just holding her but their baby too.
She snuggled deeper into his chest before Randhir got up as the alarm rung.
"AH!" She got scared and hugged him tighter at the loud ringing voice after so much silence, making him laugh.
"Aw, you got scared? You are so sensitive sometimes." Randhir trailed kisses all over her forehead down till her cheek before firmly kissing her lips.
"Good morning, beautiful." he simpered and got up as he tiredly ran his fingers through his hair.
Just when he was gonna go to the wash, Sanyu stopped him.
"Come back soon and read your business file!"
Randhir was confused. "What the h-? Why? I thought you hate it when I work a lot.. now you are asking me to open files. You are the craziest girl in the world, Sanyukta. But I still love you."
"You have to." she crossed her arms. "Because WE are never gonna go away from you."
"Who is we now, goddammit?!" Randhir snapped.
Sanyu's face became blank. "Me.. and my.. heart that is full of love for you Randhir!" she spoke dramatically making him roll his eyes.
"Crazy, absolutely pagal." he said and went to the wash while Sanyu crossed her fingers and kept praying that he knows soon after he comes back..
~
Randhir picked up his business file and found it odd that Sanyu was sitting infront of him on the recliner and looking at him wide-eyed.
He opened the file and read the words before pursing his lips.
"Did you write this?" he lifted the paper and showed to her, making her nod slowly.
Randhir stared at the paper again for a few more moments, Sanyu's palms were sweating UNCONTROLLABLY right now and her toes were curling up with anticipation.
"Sanyu.. are you.. why do I feel that- are you pregnant, Sanyu?" Randhir trailed off shockingly.
"YES! FINALLY YOU UNDERSTOOD! MY 4TH ATTEMPT IS NOT A FAIL!" Sanyu got up and started dancing before Randhir immediately got up and held her arm, stopping her.
"WHY THE HELL ARE YOU DANCING?! YOU CAN GET HURT! Sanyu atleast for this time stop being crazy.. be careful." he laughingly hugged her tight, making her gasp.
"A-are you okay with it?"
"What kind of question is that? OFCOURSE! I AM SO DAMN HAPPY SANYU!"
"But..I thought you don't like kids.."
"Sanyu, I don't like kids but ofcourse I'll love our own kid very f*cking much- because it's going to be a gift from you, from the woman who I love so much, who is my most prized possession.. you are like my beautiful, sensitive, adorable doll.. my love. But did we ever have protected lovemaking? No right? Then ofcourse I am okay with you getting pregnant or I would have put so much restrictions on us. Pills and..you know, all those things." he chuckled and smacked the back of her waist playfully making her laugh too.
"You are right! I totally forgot about that... how silly can I be.." Sanyu smacked her forehead feeling angry at herself.
"No, you are probably just overwhelmed Sanyu. It's okay." he kissed her hair and hugged her tighter, so tight that she could almost not breath.
"RANDHIR! WE ARE SUFFOCATING!" Sanyukta shouted, making him move away and exhale deeply.
"So this was your 'we'." he winked.
"Yes Randhir, this was we. Me and the baby." Sanyu announced proudly, Randhir hugged her again and swept her off her feet before taking her to the bed where they both will love each other for a long time and celebrate this happiest news of their life...
