Turn her head toward her left side and saw her husband sleeping peacefully on his stomach (one hand underneath his pillow and his other hand on her stomach) she smile at him.
She didn't want to wake him up, but she had too cause she wanted to use the bathroom and felt as if she's late.
She start shaking him lightly, but he wasn't moving. Sighing away she pinched him hard and he jerk up. His sleepy eyes didn't understand anything, when he began rubbing his eyes he got shock and stare at Kripa.
Kripa gave him shy smile.
Angad: Kripa, what are you doing here?
Kripa avoid looking in his eyes "actually, I couldn't sleep anywhere other than my bed so I came here middle of the night and slept" Angad smile at her and hugged her tightly forgetting everything. They didn't need any words to express themselves or explain their action cause their heart already accepted the truth and it felt peaceful for Angad and Kripa too. Sudden knock disturb them.
Kripa quickly excuse herself and head straight inside the washroom leaving Angad to open the door.
He greet his Suhana Auntie "good morning, Auntie" Suhana also greet him back "very good morning my child"
Angad: Auntie place come inside
Suhana: No beta. I was wondering has Kripa by chance came here. She is usually up extremely early and today she's very late.
Angad: Auntie, she must have overslept today and yes she just came inside the room to fresh up since her clothes are inside the room. I personally told her that she doesn't have to move her things just for me. I hope that's alright.
Suhana: Beta, you don't have to explain yourself because we know the relationship that connect you both together, but promise me that you'll never break our trust that lies in you.
Angad gave Suhana hug "I promise Auntie" Suhana kissed Angad's forehead. Kripa had witness entire scene inside the washroom. Smile creep on her face. She came out and greet her mother.

1pm
Angad frown... because since the moment they arrive Kripa straightly went inside the kitchen and came near 45min later. She arrange the dinning table and asked me to call the rest. I was surprise to see Uncle home for lunch. Kripa serve everyone before she settle down to have her own lunch and it was only half slice of sandwich.
Angad: Aren't you going to have anything else or just a sandwich?
Kripa: I am use to having very less amount of food and slightly not in the mood of having anything heavy.
Angad himself just ate a half a sandwich
Kripa frown.
Angad saw her expression, but wink at her "Uncle, since you are home I would like to take your permission in taking Kripa out for shopping" Kripa stare at Angad because she herself wanted to go shopping and buy clothes for her husband according to her taste...
Ishaan: Prince, you don't have to take my permission. She's your (he bit his lip) your friend and you have every right on her.
Savarti got confuse, but decide to observe the matter instead of assuming anything at the moment.
Angad: Okay Uncle
Ishaan smile.
Ishaan got busy chatting with his wife and Savarti silently observing her son and Kripa.
Angad whispering: So wifely, did you hear Uncle
Kripa: Yeah I have heard Papa
Angad: So without stepping inside the kitchen go and get dress we are leaving soon.
Kripa: But
Angad: No ifs and but
Kripa: Okay
Savarti: What happen Kripa?
Kripa: Nothing Auntie
Kripa saw the maid "Jane come here" Angad found it strange. She's Indian and name Canadian "Yes Kripa" Angad growl "listen Ms. Jane she's your Madam so learn to respect her cause in the morning I've seen you talking with respectively toward Garima and with Kripa as if she's some random person in the house. I will not tolerate it. Understood. And your Madam just wanted you clean up the house in the afternoon and leave cause tonight the family is going out for dinner" Jane nod her head and left.
Ishaan smile: Suhana, I told you nah one day Prince himself will teach Jane a lesson. The day we hired her because of Garima was the last day my daughter got respect from her. You remember how many times I've fired her and Garima brought her back again.
Suhana: I know. I hate her, but tolerating her just for Garima. She get paid from us, but treat Garima as her master and us some servant of the house. Thank you Angad beta for cracking some sense into her.
Angad: Its okay Auntie. I've seen in the morning when Kripa asked the maid to clean out the kitchen she strictly said no. It angered me, but Kripa she controlled my anger from smacking her at the moment. Anyways Auntie, Uncle and Mom be ready in the evening we are going out for dinner.
Ishaan: As you wish Prince
Kripa: Papa... I know what type of excitement you are getting, but don't forget the idea might be Angad, but the place is going to be my choice.
Ishaan: What?
Suhana shook her head and Savarti controlling her laughter. Kripa left to get ready while Angad also disappear behind Kripa.
