Chapter 31

PART B

I glanced at my wife who was sleeping beside me peacefully. Her hands placed on her stomach securely. She was looking so beautiful under the morning sunlight coming through windows. Her face was glowing due to her pregnancy and there was a sweet smile on her lips. I smiled moving forward and placing a kiss on her pink plump lips, I just couldn't control myself. She scrunched her nose and rubbed her lips in her sleep.

I felt my heart swelling with love and adoration, she looked so cute sleeping like a kid. She slept exactly like that little monster of Sharon, her beloved Yashu. I shook my head chucking to myself.

My wife was anything but a kid.

I got up moving towards wash to take bath before she woke up. I had to look into her breakfast as well. Every morning before going for work I make sure my wife eats something healthy for breakfast, I know after I step out of this house, there is no stopping her from eating all that unhealthy junk food. There is no one to stop her, my beloved mother would never stop her darling pregnant daughter from eating anything.

I smile looking at my wife. She was still sleeping, now an adorable pout adoring her lips. I move forward and sit beside her on floor. I place a quick kiss on her adorable pouty lips. I grin as I then move forward and remove the blanket from her body till below her baby bump.

Rey:" Morning babies. How are you both, baccha? I hope you are not troubling your mother and sister, champ. Princess, close your ears for a second, I want to talk to your brother in private. Now, Champ listen I don't want any complaints from your sister or mother that you are troubling her,otherwise you won't get any chocolates or toys, Okay? I love you both , baccha, but we both are big guys , right? We both have to take care of your sister and mother. I want you to be a perfect brother and son , Okay? And if you'll behave well then I'll get you the best video games ,It's a deal. "

Rey:" Now tell princess that she can open her ears. Hey, Baby. We both were just having some guy talk. I love you both so much. You both are my stars. "

I moved forward and kissed Taani's baby bump twice . I still can't believe our babies are living inside there. It is so hard to believe that two little hearts are beating there inside her womb. Our Babies. Two small tiny bundles, with small hands, legs, two tiny hearts beating there inside. Gosh, I love them so much.

This experience is so new for me. I have been through a lot of emotions in my life. Always loved by parents I always was an arrogant guy who had everyone falling on his feet, then when Dad passed away I kind of went into a shell and started hating almost every person on this planet except for Mom,Sharon and Swayam. The betrayal that we got after Dad's death, and the heavy blow on business, I went away from all emotions just busying myself in work and work only. I created this wall beside me which no one could penetrate but then Taani came into my life. She challenged my every belief that I harboured for years. She was that warm sunlight that came into my life and fought with my every demon. But I was blinded by my stupid beliefs, and hurt that angel who gave me nothing but love. But eventually her love crumbled down every wall that I had built around me.

Falling in love with her was the best feeling of my life, that's what I believed till few months back. But knowing that two small little lives are living inside her, lives that we both created with our love, the two bundles of sunshine which will come out someday and will fill our life with joy, this feeling is definitely as beautiful as falling in love with her.

I feel myself falling again and hard for her. And this time this feeling is even more beautiful than last time. I just feel like bursting with happiness whenever I realise that after few months we both will be able to see our babies, and we'll be able to hold them and play with them. We will be able to shower them with our love and every happiness of this world.

I no longer have any doubts that whether Taani will forgive me for my unforgivable mistakes or not. I can see love for myself in her eyes. I know she is just trying to act tough from outside, from inside even she knows that she isn't going anywhere, not now, not ever.

Rey:" Gosh Baccha, Dada loves you both so much. I just feel like kissing and talking to you both whole day. But I have to go now. I know you all three are hungry. I'll go and get breakfast for you both and your Mumma. Take care, Okay. Dada, loves you"

I bend down and kiss them once again. Placing a kiss on my wife's forehead I move out from room.

God, what does love do to a man? I feel like laughing out loud whenever I think what I have become. The person who used to smile once in a month, now cannot stop grinning and laughing whole day. There is a smile plastered on my face permanently. And the person who never expressed his feelings now says I love you five hundred times a day. I just feel myself gushing with happiness and love whenever I think about Taani and our babies. Talking to them just makes my day. I am officially a mad man now.

I move into kitchen and look at mother who was busy cutting fruits for Taani.

Rey:" Mom, why are you doing all this? Let me do it"

I say taking knife from mom's hand and continue cutting fruits for my wife who is busy sleeping without a care in world. I laugh as I think how she sleeps like a log whole day. She just eats and sleeps whole day. What has pregnancy done to my wife, the girl who never slept a blink after sunrise now a day sleeps like a log. But it is good for her, she is always tired even after sleeping so much.

Sudha:" Who would believe that Asia's biggest business tycoon's day starts in kitchen, preparing breakfast for his wife? What has my bahu done to my son. I can't believe you are the same Reyaansh"

Mom says laughing loudly.

Sudha:" Always be like this beta. I can't tell you how happy I am to see you both this happy "

She says kissing my forehead and caressing my face with love filled eyes.

Rey:" Aye Aye Captain"

I mock salute her as she shakes with laughter once again.

Rey:" Now let me go and follow my patni-vrata-draram "

I say laughing. I keep the fruit bowl, chocolate milk glass and mushroom sandwich in tray for my wife. Mom moves to her room laughing over my antics. She is always laughing now a days. It feels like everything is good with life once again. We were never this happy in life after Dad passed away. Mom used to smile and everything but now it's like she has become her old self again.

The happiness of seeing her Son and Daughter together so happy and then awaiting the arrival of her two Grand kids has filled her life with joy and hope once again.

I stand below shower as water gushes down my body. Taking some body wash I rub it onto my body and caress my baby bump with my hands.

I still feel ticklish and gushing with immense joy as I remember how Rey kissed my baby bump several times in morning. Then my hand moves to my lips as I remember the kiss me placed onto my lips after coming out from shower.

What better start of a day I had, I had woken up when Rey was inside the wash. And surprisingly I had no morning sickness today. This is the biggest reason of my happiness along with Rey's kisses. I was just fooling around trying to sleep again to get some rest till Rey bought my breakfast when I saw him coming out from wash. He was dressed only in his trousers and his upper body was completely bare. He was busy wiping his wet hair with a towel. God, My husband is a one handsome man. I could see why he spent hours in that gym, his perfect abs and broad shoulders were result of his hard work only. I felt myself getting hot as I continued looking at him. That's when he turned around and started coming towards me. I suddenly closed my eyes as I didn't want to get caught ogling him early morning.

And next what he did just made me blush like hell. He kissed my lips so sweetly and adorably that I felt myself getting red all over.

Thank god he had moved to my baby bump and he didn't see my red face. He was busy negotiating with our son and kept looking at him.

Spoke like a true businessman. I couldn't believe the nerve of this man. Our kids are not even born and he has started his deals and negotiation with them as well. How could he threaten my buttercup with his toys and chocolates, but I just couldn't get angry with him. Could I? This man is so adorable. He is teaching our son, who isn't even born, to take care of his mother and sister. Can this man get more adorable? Who talks to baby bumps early in the morning. Only he can do such thing.

I close my eyes as he once again kissed me on my forehead and moves out to get my breakfast.

I smile as I get up from bed. I am not going to get any more sleep after seeing this adorable side of him.

I was busy arranging the bed properly when Taani came out from walk in closet dressed in a white bath robe and her face drenched with tears.

Rey:" Taani, What happened? Are you alright? Is it paining somewhere? Why are you crying? Is it paining? Tell me, damn it"

I shout as I hold her securely taking her face in my hands.

She looks at me with her tear filled eyes and then pushes me away.

Taani:" Go to hell, Rey"

She shouts and then sits on bed continuing crying. I moved towards her and hold her hands sitting on my knees in front of her.

Rey:" Why are you crying ,Baby? Are you hurt? Did you fell down in wash?"

I say looking at her properly for any sign of bruises or marks.

Taani:" God Rey, Shut up. I am not hurt.Physically."

She says pushing me away. What does it mean that she isn't hurt physically.

Rey:" Then what happened? Why are you crying? "

I say holding her face in my hands and wipe her tear. I feel relieved that she isn't hurt, Physically, as she has emphasised . But still her tears are breaking my heart.

Taani:" Just my big ego is crushed. I'm...god...I can't fit into my clothes anymore. I just shopped for these new beautiful clothes last month and they aren't fitting me anymore. Even your t-shirts aren't fitting me anymore. I cannot even wear your t-shirts now. I am so fat. Nothing in this world will fit me"

She completes and breaks into heavy sobs again.

Rey:" God..God...Lady, calm down. One, you don't have to cry for your poor old clothes, we'll get new ones for you. And second, you are not fat. You've just become more adorable than you were if that is even possible, and this is not fat darling, these are our babies growing inside you. Are you calling our babies fat? They can listen to you, you know right? You're crushing their tiny little hearts"

I say wiping all her tears. she looks at me looking so adorable with her cheeks and nose red after crying and her eyes wide like she saw some ghost.

Taani:" No..No...No...I'm not calling my butter cups fat. They are the most perfect babies in this world. And even if they are fat they are beautiful. Weight has nothing to do with beauty. Even if we all three get hundred times fatter , we'll still be beautiful, right?"

Gosh, I love her Man.

Rey:" Absolutely. Now, come and eat your breakfast"

I take her hand and make her sit on bed inside blanket. She takes her food tray and digs into her breakfast. I move out to make some important calls.

After finishing my breakfast I was busy listening to music when my husband came inside room. I was still in bath robe as I have no clothes to wear and also because I didn't feel like getting up from bed.

Rey:" Yes, move it inside. She is here only. "

I peek behind my husband and there I saw four girls standing there dressed in salesgirl clothes. They were moving several clothes racks inside.

Taani:" What is this ,Rey?"

I say getting up from bed. He came towards me and made me sit again on bed.

Rey:" These are new clothes for you. They have bought their best collection from maternity section. You just sit here and select the ones you like"

I look at husband with my mouth open wide. I continue gaping at him for several seconds and then look at the four ladies standing there giggling on my expression.

Taani:" I thought we'll go out shopping"

I say after closing my mouth. My husband signals the ladies to pick out clothes for me.

Rey:" Shopping like this? "

He looks at me dressed in bath robe and laughs.

Rey:" Plus, I don't want to tire you moving from one store to other. I am not Sharon. I am Reyaansh Singhania ,darling"

I look at him and shake my head at my husband's antics. He goes to such lengths for even the smallest of things.

Next thirty minutes I look at all the clothes presented in front of me. It was so hard to choose from all these beautiful clothes. They all are so beautiful.

Taani:" That's all. These dresses are enough for me."

I say taking many dresses. I start getting up to move toward wash to try them.

Rey:" And where do you think you are going now?"

He says making me sit again.

Taani:" To try these obviously. I have to see if they fit me or not"

I say giving him a duh expression.

Rey:" No need to try. They'll fit you. I asked them to bring all clothes of your size only. They all are perfect fit"

He says keeping the clothes aside on couch.

Taani:" kuch bhi, Rey. Let me go and try them. How would you know my perfect size? "

Rey:" Trust me on this one, sweetheart. I am your husband, I know exactly what your size is... "

He says winking suggestively towards me. All the four ladies standing there giggle at my husband's suggestive remark . I become red with embarrassment as he then moves forward and selects some more clothes for me before sending those ladies out with rejected clothes.

My husband is a one shameless man.

Ravee :D
