Part 9

Prerna stretched her hand in sleep only to realise that the space next to her was empty, she immediately opened her eyes, her husband who was lay next to her before she went to sleep was now missing from the room

‘Yeh achanak Rishabh kahan chale gaye?’

She got out of the bed and walked out of her room to look for Rishabh, she checked Kukki’s room first but he wasn’t there, she then went to his study and didn’t find him there either. She was about to go back to their room to get her phone when she noticed that the door towards the veranda was open, she walked in the direction and was relieved when she saw her husband sitting there on one of the sofas. He looked lost.

Though she had come without making any noise, Rishabh felt her presence and looked up, he frowned at her as she came and sat next to him

‘Why did you wake up?’

He asked her in an annoyed tone, Prerna raised an eyebrow at him, it was after a long time he had spoken to her in this tone

‘I mean… it’s very late, aapko iss waqt rest karna chahiye…’

Rishabh said in a gentle tone this time and earned a smile from Prerna, she shifted closer to him and rested her head on his shoulder

‘I couldn’t sleep without you…’

She hugged him from the waist and snuggled into him, he smiled to himself as he wrapped his arm around her and rested his head on top of hers. He found solace in this moment of theirs, but Prerna could sense that something was wrong with her dear husband. She tilted her head up and looked at him, pain was clearly visible in his eyes.

‘What’s wrong??’

She asked him softly but he nodded his head negatively, the last thing he wanted to do was trouble his seven months pregnant wife right now.

‘Tell me na.. I know something is bothering you..’

Prerna said in a sterner tone and broke their embrace, he sighed as he began to speak

‘My mother died on this day, when I was just 12.. I was playing in the room next door when she suffered a stroke and lay unconscious for hours on the kitchen floor, by the time I found her it was already too late.. till date I keep crushing myself for not reaching her side in time… I miss her so much, even though I have Maasi with me I just can’t stop missing her, I miss her warmth and her smile… the way she scolded me whenever I was wrong and you know there are days when I do something which I know would have been wrong in her eyes, I just wish that she would scold me once again, and guide me to the right path. The day I cracked my first deal all I wanted to do was to rush to her and hug her. I wanted her to say that I made her proud, But she was never there to witness my success or see me struggle in this huge world without her… she left me to be on my own…’

Prerna had already started crying by now and Rishabh’s eyes were welled up too as he remembered his mother.

‘Where ever she is, your mother is really proud of you Rishabh..’

She embraced him in her arms again and Rishabh hid his face in her neck as he sobbed softly. Every year on this day he always felt alone in spite of being surrounded by people, but this year it was different as he had someone by his side who could ease his pain.

A few minutes later when Rishabh broke the hug, Prerna wiped his tears and pecked his cheek. She took his hand and placed it on her belly. They felt a kick and a smile formed on their lips

‘See even your son doesn’t want you to cry any more..’

She said in a cute voice that made Rishabh chuckle, he bent to kiss her baby bump and then kissed her forehead.

‘It’s late, let’s get you to bed…’

He said and got up while holding Prerna by her shoulders as they walked inside the house

‘Rishabh..’

‘Hmm…’

‘I want to have ice cream…’

Prerna said and bit her tongue as her husband looked at her in amusement, he glanced at the wall clock and then at her again

‘It’s nearly 2 in the morning, you want to have ice cream.. now??’

Prerna shook her head rigorously, but Rishabh looked her disapprovingly, she could get sick if she had ice cream at such an odd hour.

‘Are you sure? It’s not a good…’

‘But baby wants ice cream too…’

She said and made a puppy face, though Rishabh knew that once again Prerna was using her ‘pregnancy cravings card’ on him he couldn’t dare to deny her after looking at her cute expressions.

‘But if you fall sick tomorrow, I will be really mad at you…’

He said in a stern voice but Prerna only smiled at him and almost dragged him to the kitchen. Rishabh made her sit on one of the chairs and walked to the fridge to get some ice cream for her, he bought a blow and spoon along with the tub and was about to scoop some ice cream in the bowl when Prerna took a spoon to eat from the tub itself but Rishabh pulled it back

‘Mrs Bajaj… you are only going to have a small amount of ice cream..’

Rishabh said in a warning tone as he took a seat next to her and scooped a spoon in the bowl which made Prerna pout

‘Bas ek scoop?’

‘Yes.. because like I said, I don’t want you getting sick in the morning for eating ice cream at this time…’

He said and started feeding her the ice cream, Prerna kept sulking for not being allowed to relish her ice cream to her heart's content but when she noticed a small smirk on her husband's face she felt confused

‘What’s going on in your head?’

She asked him as she grabbed another spoon and fed some ice cream to him as well.

‘You really want to know??’

Rishabh asked in a teasing tone which only intrigued Prerna, she nodded her head affirmatively, he shifted his chair closer to hers and whispered in her ear

‘There are something’s that are better done than said.. I know a few tricks that I can do with ice cream which I will show you when the time is right…’

He moved back and winked at her, while putting a spoonful of ice cream in his mouth as his wife stared at him with wide eyes when she realised the hidden meaning of his words. She blushed profusely and Rishabh laughed out loud at her expression, he continued teasing her until they finished their ice cream and retired to their room.

——

Rishabh woke up later than usual today because of sleeping late last night, he turned to look at his wife sleeping with her mouth slightly open and a few fringes of hair curtained her forehead, a big smile crept on his face. He quickly grabbed his phone from the side table to click a few pictures of her and quickly kept it back when she was about to wake up.

‘Good morning…’

He said in a soft voice and kissed her on top of her head making her smile

‘Mmmmm…I don’t want to wake up yet…’

Prerna mumbled in her sleep and snuggled closer to him as she locked her arms around his waist, Rishabh chuckled at her antics and moved her fringes behind her ear

‘Fine.. but let me get up at least.. it’s 9 am already…’

‘No.. I won’t let you get up as well…’

‘Arey…’

Rishabh was about to say something in protest but his phone started ringing before that. It was his mother in law’s name that flashed on the screen

‘Maa ka phone aa raha hai…’

He tried to free himself from his wife’s hold but Prerna didn’t let him go, Rishabh still managed to grab his phone in time to answer the call

‘Maa.. sab theek hai?’

He asked in a worried tone. It was the first time that Veena had called him before 10 in the morning. She smiled at his concern for her

‘Haan beta.. sab theek hai.. itni subah phone karne ke liye mafi chahte hain….’

‘Maa please.. aapko mafi mange ki koi zaroorat nahi hai…’

Prerna saw him roll his eyes as he spoke to her mother, she knew he hated when Veena acted formal with him. In the last few months her mother and her husband had grown very fond of each other and Prerna couldn’t have thanked the almighty enough for this.

‘Beta Tumse kuch baat karni thi…’

‘Boliye naa..’

He patted Prerna slightly and signaled her to shift a bit, he sat on the bed with his back against the headrest and Prerna followed his suite.

‘Hum soch rahe the ki do din baad tumhara janam din aa raha hai, toh ussi din hum Prerna ke godh bharai ki rasam bhi kar lete hain..’

Veena said excitedly but Rishabh was slightly nervous after listening to her. It took him a minute to reply her

‘Jaisa aap theek samjhe Maa…’

He tried to conceal his nervousness but his Mother in law had already sensed it

‘Agar tumhe koi aitraz hai Toh..’

‘Nahi Maa.. aisa kuch nahi hai.. aapko jo theek lage aap vahi kijiye…’

Though Veena was not convinced fully she still thanked Rishabh for giving into her demand. As he cut the call Rishabh looked at Prerna who gave him a pointed look.

‘What?’

He asked her while trying to act normal and avoid the conversation already

‘Why were you so nervous while talking Maa?’

‘Nothing..’

Rishabh shrugged his shoulders and got out of the bed, Prerna crossed her hands across her chest and continued staring at him making him conscious of every step that he took

‘Stop glaring at me!’

He complained as he started getting his clothes ready for the day but Prerna’s expressions didn’t change. He knew that she wouldn’t give up till he spilled the beans.

‘Okay.. Maa said something about your Godh Bharai rasam.. she wants to do it the day after tomorrow…on my birthday …’

‘And that’s why you got nervous?’

She asked him with a frown, Rishabh shook his head negatively and walked back to the bed, he sat next to her and caught her hand

‘No it’s just that.. I don’t know.. somehow every year on my birthday something happens… and I don’t want to jinx your Godh Bharai as well..’

‘Toh aap Maa ko na keh dete ..’

‘She was so excited… I didn’t want to spoil her excitement..’

Prerna looked at him in awe, only for mother’s happiness and excitement he had agreed to do something that he was scared to do in the first place. She grabbed his hand and gently stroked the back of it.

‘Don’t worry… this time we are together na.. this year we will break the jinx...’

She said in an assuring tone and gave him a big smile, Rishabh hesitantly smiled back and sent a silent prayer to God, he hoped that her words would be true. Because he knew that if something were to happen to her because of his jinx, he would never be able to forgive himself.
