Kalpi Stood Before Her Large Mirror Dressed In a Pink Saree,Her Eyes Fell On Her Mangalsutra. She closed Her Eyes Recalling Her Grand Marriage To Raghav.

"Ya,Don't watch Me..." Kalpi said angrily as she Passed By Aamya and Sophie Who Smile at Her.
"Kalpi Bhabhi!!" Amaya called out to her cheerfully,Kalpi turned Back at her with an Annoyed Frown "What?" She Muttered. Aamya smiled faded with Kalpi's Reaction To Her. She Lowered Her Eyes at Kalpi and Began Playing With her Fingers. "I Was Wondering If You Were Still Upset With Me About The Children. I know I-"
"It's Not a Problem Aamya,It's Done Already,Just Forget it" Kalpi said Cutting Aamya Off,She Cupped Aamya's cheek and Left From There.

A Sigh Left Kalpi as she Made Her Way outside to The Open Lawn. Her Eyes Lingering On the Little Children Who Were Running and Playing With The Sprinkler,The Sounds Of Their Laughter Had Echoed Around Her Making Her Feel a Peace at Mind "Look at That,The Kids Are Happy.." Kalpi said as She Looked At the Smiling Faces Of The Children She Loved. "Meher I wished you were Here.." She Sighed,Meher Had Just Recently Left The Singhaina's Mansion To Go Abroad With her Husband Virkant.
Her Eyes Twinkled In Joy When She Glanced at Her Eleven Year Old Son Ayush. Her Niece Devika and Her Nephew Mayank. The Children Had Not Noticed Kalpi Who Kept a Watchful Eye On them. A Giggle Left Kalpi as she Watched Little Devika Jumping On Her Ayush's Back Tugging On His Wavy Brown Hair. "I Won!!!" Devika Screamed In Excitement,She Planted a Big Kiss On Her Cousin's Face and He Jerked Her Back.
"What is That!!Ewww!! " Ayush Yelled Wiping His Face Angrily. "She Kissed You..." Mayank Muttered Twisting His Face In Displeasure. Little Devika Stomped Her Feet And Pouted When The Boys Began Scolding Her. "I will Tell Kalpi Mausi On You Both!!" Devika Cried,She Turned Around and Saw Kalpi Standing By The Table Watching On at The Little Argument Sadly. "Kalpi Mausi!!" She Cried Running Over to Kalpi,Leaving Mayank and Ayush In Shock. The Boys Turned Around Seeing Kalpi Glaring At Them.
"Kalpi Mausi,I--"
"Ssshh,Hey It's Alright to Be Like that,Don't Mind them. I Will Punish them" Kalpi said with a Grin Wiping Away Devika's Tears,Her Eyes Lingering at Her Mischievous Son Who Was Very Much Like His Father. Devika's Eyes Brighten's Up at Kalpi's Words,She Spun Around Looking at Her Cousins With a Grin. "Thank You Kalpi Mausi" She said With a Smile,She Pecked Kalpi and Ran Inside to See Her Mother. "Be Careful Devika.." Kalpi Shouted Behind the Young Girl.
The Nervous Faces Of Ayush and Mayank Looked Up at A Glaring Kalpi,With Her Arms Crossed Against Her Chest She Made Her Way Up to The Trembling boys.
"Mayank,Ayush. What Kind Of Behavior Is This?" Kalpi said With a Serious Tone,Her Eyes Flashing Angrily At The Boys Who Lowered Their Heads. "Devika Looks Up to You Boys,You're Her Protectors!" Kalpi said Sternly,Her Angry Eyes Falling On Her Son. "Ayush,Look at Me...Mayank You go to your Mother" Kalpi said. Mayank Looked Up at Kalpi with a frown and Left. As Mayank left,Kalpi Glanced Back At Her Son Who Folded His Arms and Stared At Her,Her Eyes Flickered at The Similarity Her Son Had Like His Father. "Ayush--"
"Ammi!! I Do not Like Girls Kissing Me,I am A Boy and I do Not Like It. Their Icky and Gross." Ayush said Diverting His Angry Gaze Away from His Mother. Kalpi Scoffed and Looked On at Her son In Shock. "Ayush,Who told You Girls Are Like that? Girls--"
" Dad Did and He Is Right!' Ayush said Cutting His Mother Off. Kalpi Scoffed At Her Son's Words. "That Idiot.." She Mumbles Walking Over to A Chair as She Took a Seat,she Glanced Up at Ayush Who Remained In His Angry Form. She Sighed and How Similar He was Like His Father.
"Ayush,You Are Wrong Just like your Dad, Girls Are really Nice,They Are Innocent and Delicate.." Kalpi said with a Small Smile,Her Eyes Lingering On Her Unmoved Son. Ayush Stared at His Mother With a Frown and Looked Away "Dad Says Girls are Bossy and Mean. He said That Whenever A Man does something Right They Blow their Heads Off Like a Rice Cooker!!" Ayush Muttered,Kalpi choked On Her Drink at Ayush Word's,She Quickly Glanced Up at Her Son Wide-Eyed Who Looked At Her With Concerned Eyes. "What?.." She asked Resting Her Glass on the Glass Table. "Your Father Said That?" Kalpi said Staring at Her Nodding Son. Kalpi Shook Her Head In Unbelief As To How Raghav Completely Turned Her Son Against Women.
"Ammi,Why Are You Quiet" Ayush Asked When He Had Noticed His Mother was In Thoughts For a Little Moment,He walked Over to Her with A Smile and Sat Comfortably On Her Lap. "Ammi Have I Hurt You?" The little Child asked Innocently Resting His Head On Her Chest. Kalpi Gently Stroked Her Son's Unkempt Wet Hair. "No My Little Prince,Ammi is Just Surprised at Your Father's Words." Kalpi said softly. Ayush Slid His Hands Around His Mother Hugging Her Tightly. "But Ammi,Dad is Correct About That,I Don't Like Icky Rice Cooker Girls." Ayush said softly and Kalpi Chuckled at His Words With all Intention Of Murdering Raghav when He Came Back. She Fumed at The Words and lies Raghav Had Planted In Her Innocent Son's Head. She Rested Her Chin On His Wet Head and Smiled Enjoying The little Moment she Had With her Prince. "Ammi.." Ayush Mumbles Clutching Her Stomach and Kalpi Looked Down at Him Intently.
"Is The Baby Okay Now?" He asked Innocently With Knowledge That His Mother Had Been Sick Every Morning and He Had To Be the One to Help, A Happy Kalpi smiled at Him,She Hugged Him Closer and Kissed His Head "Yes Ayush,The Baby is Alright."

The Singhaina Mansion was Filled with Live Chatter As The Guest Awaited the Arrival Of The Singhaina Men. As One Of The Guys Happily Informed Everyone That Raghav,Sammy and Aryan had Arrived,Everyone Happily Stared at The Front Door. Kalpi,Sophie and Amaya Stood With their Children In Front Of Them In Happy Anticipation Of Seeing Their Husband's After 3 months Of Being Apart. As The Men Walked In The ladies Heart Skipped a Beat. There Was a Silence as The Husband's Glanced The Beautiful Forms Of Their Wives and Children.
"Papa!!!" Devika screamed In Excitment as she Stared at Aryan,She And Aamya Both ran And Hugged Him Tightly. Sammy Walked Up to Sophie and Mayank,He Kissed His Wife and Hugged Her Tightly While Mayank Watched On Cheerfully.
Raghav Stared On at His Brother's Who Were Filled With Joy With The Sight Of Seeing Their Wives. A Smiled Graced His Lips Seeing How Happy His Brother's Were. Then His Gaze Fell On Kalpi Who's Fingers Gently Raked Their Son's Head. His Eyes Lingered On Her Beautiful Frame. He Took a Couple Of Steps Closer Towards Them and Stopped With a Grin.
"Dad!" Ayush Exclaimed Happily,Kalpi Felt the Soft Strands Of Her Son's Hair Slipping Out of Her Fingers as He Ran to His Father Enveloping In a Hug. Raghav Lifted The Boy Of His Feet and Kissed Him. Raghav Held On tightly to His Son and Cupped His Cheeks "You took Good Care of Your Mother!" He said with a proud smile. "Yes Dad,Ammi Is Well" Ayush said,He glanced Back at His Mother Remembering the Promise He Had Made To Her.
"Ayush" Kalpi said Softly as She Helped Him Wear His Black Jacket. "Yes Ammi.' He said with a smile Looking up at His Mother. "When Your Dad Comes. Promise me You Won't Tell Him There Is A Baby Here" She said Resting His Little Hand On Her Stomach. Ayush stared at His Mother In Pure Confusion,He Wondered Why His Mother would Keep Such a Thing From His Father. "Okay Ammi.." He said with a Smile Without asking His Mother His Reasons. Kalpi Smoothed Out Her Son's Jacket and Ran Her Fingers Gently Through His Hair But as she Turned to leave Kalpi Spun Around Looking at Her Innocent Son With a Nervous Smile. "What Happened Ammi? Did Dad Put it there?" He asked Again and Hoped Up On The Bed Looking Up at His Mother,Awaiting Her Answer to His Question. "Ammi! Did Dad Put the Baby There?" He asked. Kalpi Cleared Her Throat and Diverted Her Eyes Away from Ayush."
Kalpi smiled at her son When He Looked Back at His Father with a Grin. She scoffed when she saw The Both Exchanged Grins and Began Laughing. "Allah,What is This. Like Father,Like son..' She Muttered to Herself. She Looked to Her side when she saw Neetu Smiling at Her. "You Look Good My cupcake" Neetu said with a Grin. Kalpi rolled her eyes at Her and Looked Away. Neetu Very Well Knew Kalpi was Expecting and She Enjoyed Being a Grandmother. "Oh Don't Talk with me Now Ma,Flattering will get you nowhere" Kalpi Muttered and Walked Away.
Raghav's Eyes Quickly Fell On Kalpi Who was Walking Into the Kitchen. "How Your Ammi? Did She Miss Me?" Raghav asked with a Grin and Ayush Nodded. "Yes Dad,She Kept Thinking Of You Whole day" Ayush Said with a smile. "Really?" Raghav smirked. "And Did You Keep Your Promise and Took Good Care Of Her?" He asked And Ayush Stared at His Father sadly.
"She Has Been Sick For a While.." He Mumbles with a Frown and Raghav Quickly Caught His Words,In Concern he Gripped unto his Son's Arms and Sternly Stared at him. "What Do You Mean She Had Been Sick?" Raghav asked with a Serious Tone,Ayush Swallowed Hard Diverting His Eyes from His Father's Glare. "Ayush! I Am speaking to You!" Raghav Muttered Gripping the Child's Face to Meet his Gaze. Hesitantly Ayush Muster the Courage To Speak About the Reason Of Kalpi's Sickness. Raghav released The child's Face and Awaited His Answer. "Actually Ammi Told Me not to tell you. Sorry Dad. I can't go against Ammi" Ayush said with a Grin,Raghav scoffed In annoyance at Ayush's Words and Looked away. "I'll go Now Dad,I see My Friends." Ayush smirked at His Father and Walked Away While Raghav Looked On With a Frown

Kalpi Mumbles In Annoyance That Again Neetu Had Treated Her Like A Child Once Again During Her Pregnancy. She Fixed Herself Comfortably On the Counter Top Eating Some Grapes. A Sigh left Her Lips as To How Would She Tell Raghav She's Expecting After Eleven Years. She Sat Quietly and Ate Her Grapes. Raghav Walked Into the Kitchen with His Serious Gaze lingering On Kalpi's Form. "I Spoke To Ayush.." Raghav said His Eyes Never Leaving Kalpi. He stood Behind The Counter She Sat Up On, "Did You Now,I Spoke to Him too.." Kalpi replied calmly as she Shoved Another Grape Into Her Mouth. Raghav Scoffed At Her Calm Response and Looked away.""And He Also Said You Were Sick!" He Gritted out Making The Grapes In Kalpi's Finger slip Out. "Did He..." Kalpi said softly,She Closed Her Eyes Hearing Her Husband's Worried Tone as he Made His Way Around the Counter Facing a Pale Kalpi. Kalpi Placed the Remaining Bowl of Grapes Aside and Looked Down at Her Husband,Seeing the Tiredness and Worry Reflecting In His Eyes. Right there she smiled and Him Reaching Her Hands To Cup His Cheek and Decided to Speak with Him Regarding Their Unborn Child. "Would You Accompany Me Outside?" Kalpi asked softly,Her Thumb Brushing against His Cheek. At His Nod,Raghav Helped Kalpi down,Sliding His Fingers Into Hers and Making Their way out of The Kitchen.

Raghav Glanced Down at His Quiet Wife as they Both Happily Held Hands Walking Down the Pillar's Making Their Way To The Decorated Lawn.
"You Haven't Answered My Question Kalpi.." Raghav said softly,His Eyes Lingering On His Smiling Wife "Neither Did You.." She replied with a grin.
Raghav Glanced down at her with a smile and Held her hands firmly,She Looked Up at Him Grinning. "You Look Beautiful...I said It!" Raghav Said with a smile. "Now Your turn.." Kalpi Looked Up at Him and Giggled at His Eyes That Beamed with Anticipation. "Were Expecting..." Kalpi said with a smile,She Stared at Raghav who Remained Quiet and Unblinking.
Kalpi Poked Him Multiple Times But Raghav Just Stared at her "You're Going to faint Aren't You.." Kalpi said In annoyance,She Scoffed and Walked Pass Him strolling along the Lawn. "You're Pregnant!" He Screamed Happily. At His Words Kalpi rolled her Eyes When She Heard His Footsteps Approaching Behind Her. "And He's Back..."
Raghav twirled Kalpi Around His Hands Gently Holding Unto Her Shoulers. "Were Pregnant?" Raghav said with a Grin,Kalpi Looked Up at Him and Shook Her Head "No I Am! I don't think You'd Be Able to Give Birth,You Might Faint"Kalpi Muttered Looking Away from Raghav's Cheerful Gaze. Raghav Stared at Kalpi For a Moment,Without Wasting Another Second He Pulled Her Into His Embrace,His Hand Stroking the Back Of Her Head Gently. "Thank You Biwi.." He whispered Against Her Neck as He Placed His Forehead On Her Shoulder. Kalpi Hummed and Ran Her Fingers Up His Back. "For?.." She Mumbles. "For Giving Me Happiness and Loving Me When I Didn't Deserve It!" Raghav said With all Sincerity,His Hands Sliding Around Kalpi's Waist Tightly as he Tugged Her Closer. "Raghav..." Kalpi said softly,He Felt her Fingers Gripping Her Hair Tightly. "Yeah.." He said and Slightly Winced. "How Are Woman Icky and A Rice Cooker.." She Muttered Tugging on His Hair,She Pushed Him Back Looking at His Apologetic Eyes. "You are something,Telling my Son, Women are Rice Cookers?!! Is That what Women Are?" Kalpi Muttered. Raghav stepped Back as Kalpi Clenched Her Little Fist,He Looked away Trying to Conceal His Laughter. "Wait... You said Woman Blow their Heads Off when They Are Angry Right" She asked Staring at a Nodding Raghav,Kalpi took a Step Closer to Raghav with a smile. "Are You Implying When I am Upset with You I Blow My Head Off??" Kalpi muttered. "N-No,I-I Meant that About all The Women In Our Home,at work..." Raghav said Innocently. "Really?" Kalpi Grabbeed Unto Raghav's Neck With One Hand and Used to the Other to Yank On His Hair. "You Forgot to tell Your Son That when Men Get Women Angry They get Slapped and Punched" Kalpi Shouted,The Sound Of Raghav's Screams and Groans Made Her Laugh.

The Light Laughter Of Kalpi Left Raghav Fulled With Warmth and Laughter as she Laid Back On His Stomach Looking Up at the Stars, entwining Their Fingers Together as They Lay On The Lawn.
"Kalpi..." He said softly looking at the moon, Kalpi listening On Intently at him. "What If We Meet Differently and I Was a Good Guy,Would You Have Left Prem for me If I Had Pursued You?" Raghav asked with Curiosity,He Sat Up Resting His Hand On Kalpi's Stomach,A Grin Played On Her Lips as she looked Up at Him. "Hmmm,I Guess Maybe.." She said with a smile,Staring at Raghav's Annoyed Eyes. "But You are not a Good Guy." She Continued Truthfully and Winked at Him,A annoyed Scoffed Left Raghav at her Words "Then You Married a B--
"Monster...I Married a Monster. Who Turned Into those Typical Prince" Kalpi Said with a Grin,She Gasped When He Had Tighten His Grip On Her Stomach "Very Funny.." He Muttered In Annoyance. Kalpi Had looked Up at Raghav Innocently with a Smile,She Placed Her Hand On Raghav's Stomach and Smiled. "I Married a Good Guy and I Love Him A lot." Kalpi said Softly with all Sincerity,At her Words Raghav Looked down at Her With a Loving Gaze. "I Mean It Raghav,I Do Love You A Lot,Our Past was Filled With Crazy,Crazy Things and You've Given Me Two Three Amazing Things" She Continued,Raghav Brushed Her Hair Strands Away looking Down at Her Face. I Love You Too Biwi.." He Said Softly. "Kalpi..." Raghav said and She Diverted Her Eyes off the Sky to His. "Yeah." She said "Let's Do Something Really Good Tonight." He said with a Grin "What?" Kalpi scoffed When He Winked.
"I believed In Fairy Tales.." Kalpi whispered to Herself.
A Soft Smile Played On Kalpi's Lips as she Brushed her Palm's Against Raghav's. The Touch Of His Skin made Her Heart Beated Furiously Against Her Chest. Their Fingers Intertwine As She Took Another Step Closer to Him.
His Finger Gently Stroked Up The length Of Her Arm,He Looked Down into Her Brown Eyes That Reflected With love and Trust She Had Felt For Him,Raghav Tucked Away Her Strand Behind Her Ear and Cupped Her Cheek Giving Her a Gentle Kiss On Her Forehead.
Kalpi Brushed Her Palm Along Raghav's Shoulders and Gently Left Them There as Her Eyes Locked With His. His Hands Slid Around Her Waist and Pulled Her Closer Against His Body.
She Placed Her Head gently On His Chest,Raghav Held Her Tightly and Protectively Hearing Their Heartbeats Against Their Bodies. Both Kalpi and Raghav Felt Little Hands Sliding Around Them,They Looked Down Seeing Ayush Smiling Up at Them. "Jealous Much!" Raghav Muttered In Annoyance, "So Dad,She's My Ammi!" He Replied with a Grin,Kalpi Stared at Raghav and Ayushed and Scoffed.
They lay entwined in each other's Arms,With Their Little Prince Holding Unto Them,Slowly They Moved Along To The Soft Music Dancing Together Under The Moonlight That Sparkled Down On Them...
