"Chachi..chachi..Mujhe chota baby chaihiye...khelne..." Preeti innocently tugged Sanyukta's t-shirt with her baby hands, while Sanyukta, who was busy icing the cake placed at the kitchen counter, couldn't help but awe at the little kid's innocence.
"Awww!! Mera shonu! Dont worry...very soon aaega ek chotu saa baby.." She bent down and kissed her cheek, her voice holding a tinge of excitement.
"Arpita...Sharam nahi aati tumhe? Khud bol bol kar thak gayi toh apni beti se bulwaa rahi ho?!" Sanyukta made a fake disgusted face, walking towards the refrigerator, carefully placing the cake in it.
"Sanyukta...4 saal ho gaye tumhaari shaadi ko! N look at u too? Dont u want children?" Arpita picked up Preeti in her arms, staring at Sanyukta in wonder. Four years of marriage, and yet Randhir and Sanyukt seemed to be far away from even thinking about planning a child!
Sanyukta just concealed her blush, and turned towards her best friend, conveniently ignoring her comment.
"Thanks for the help Arpi...i wouldn't have managed to make the cake without u!" She engulfed her best friend into a hug, her face brighter than usual, making Arpita wonder whether there was any other reason for celebration other than Randhir and Sanyukta's 4th marriage anniversary. Though knowing very well, that even if there existed some exciting news, she would be made aware of it only after Sanyukta broke the news to Randhir!
"Now wait for the clock to strike 12...Hopefully tumhaara darling hubby tab tak waapis aa jaega!" Arpita smiled, slowly making her way towards the exit of the kitchen.
"Celebration kal mere ghar par ok? Sharp 7 in d evening..." She winked before leaving the house, while Sanyukta ran up to her bedroom, impatiently waiting for the clock to strike 12, as well as waiting for her work-a-holic hubby to return home, for today, she was feeling far more excited than their earlier wedding anniversary celebrations- the jitters were just not ready to leave her stomach!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The number ur tryin to call is busy ...Please try again later. ." Hearing the same words for the 20th time, Sanyukta angrily threw her phone on the bed. Stomping her foot, she walked down the spiral stairs of her bungalow, to the living room,wanting to watch her fav tv show-doreamon, as there seemed to be no better way of passing time.
Though the T.V volume was just acting a sheild to over shadow the curses she was showering her husband with, the remote was busy bearing the wrath of her anger, as she pressed its buttons way harder than usual.
"Arrogant jerk!" She muttered under her breath, breathing deeply- It had been a consistent tradition for Randhir to specially be late on any special occassion, and today was no different!
No doubt, it was not intentional, but any important baord meeting, or any impending contracts to be read and signed, always resulted in him coming home late, causing Sanyukta's anger soaring.
"Yes I am!!" Came his naughty whisper right in her ears, making her jump in fear- the T.V volume had also successfully overshadowed the sound of him entring their bungalow, and tip-toeing towards her, to finally stand right behind the couch, bending towards her, his breath caressing her neck.
"So Mr.Shekawat,CEO of one of the world's richest conpany, how does it feel to give priority to a board meetin over ur 4th marriage anniversary celebration?" She sarcastically smiled, poking her elbow into his chest, getting up from the couch.
"I dont see any reason to b sorry Mrs.Shekawat...the company is equally urs...so any benefit to the company means a benefit to u too.."
He winked, setting Sanyukta's anger flaring. She haugtily walked up the stair, while he too followed her, catching hold of her waist from behind before she could enter the room. Nuzzling in her neck, he rubbed her nose on her bare shoulder that her strapless knee length one piece blue dress was exposing.
Finding her anger slowly melting due to his touch, Sanyukta quickly hit him in his stomach using her elbow, not wanting to let her anger disappear soo easily.
"U may sleep on the couch or in d Guest room.." Entering the room, she haughtily declared, ready to shut the door on his face.
"What ..why?? " He placed his hand on the door to prevent her from shutting it, his eyes ball expanding- Fine he was late, but he had a genuine reason! Making a puppy face, he pleaded her through his eyes to let him in.
"Give me 1 good reason y I shuld take u in?" She crossed her arms across her chest condescendingly, though in reality her anger had already melted, and his puppy face was making it almost impossible for her to control her desire to just engulf him in a tight hug!
"Bcoz u need me..." He naughtily winked entering the room and closing the door behind.
"No darling I dont...I got wat I wanted frm u ..its u who need me.." Wrapping her hands around his neck, she teased him by brushing her lips all along his throat.
"OMG!! Ur pregnant??!!!!" He swept her off her feet, picking her up in his arms, his face glowing with happiness.
"Yes.." She buried her head in his chest, her eyes automatically watering, damping his shirt.
"Ohh nooo! U dont want the child??? Dats y u r cryin?" He placed her on the bed, staring at her in disbelief, gulping.
"RANDHIR!!!" She smacked his shoulder angrily- ask him to draw stupid conclusions on the basis of her emotional side.
"Then y r u cryin baby?" He sat beside her, close to her head, caressing her cheek lovingly.
"V r goin to become parents Randhir..." She shifted her head from the pillow to his lap, wanting to feel his presence.
"Yes! Our child wil hv our brains n my attitude!" He smirked, stroking her hair lovingly, as she snuggled closer into him, her lips touching his stomach.
"If u wuldn't hv returned that night Randhir...it wuld all b over den..." She shut her eyes as the memory of that night flashed in front of her eyes, the memory she has been living with all these years, the memory
that had never failed to haunt her, everytime Randhir was late in reaching home at night- No matter how hard she tried to forget it,no matter how many times she convinced herself that Randhir had forgiven her and that her dad had paid for his sins, the guilt in her was too stubborn to leave...What if he had not returned that night due to her stupid foolish mistake?
"Sanyukta Randhir Singh Shekawat" He caught her shoulders and made her sit upright.
"I love u! U get that? And if ur Love is true, mistakes are to be forgiven...ego n grudges do no good sanyukta...yes may be what u did was wrong...bt I could have told u d entire truth earlier...couldn't I? Bt I did not...n in d end, he suffered right? Dats all dat matters!" He gently pushed her in his lap, while Sanyukta couldnt help but smile at her husband. The guy who was ready to kill her for merely unintionally misplacing the presentation CD once upon a time, was today, more than happy to forgive her just because he loved her.
"I dont believe I fell for the arrogant jerk who was late for his own interview!" She chuckled, licking his throat, her hands unbuttoning his shirt.
"Fell? Sweet heart v r goin to have A child...soon.." He nibbled her ear, his hands, lifting her dress up, revealing her thighs.
"Exactly..which means no sex..." She naughtily looked at him, wrapping her legs around his waist.
"Darlin dats nt possible...I lusted before I fell in love...n I believe in first come first basis..." He naughtily bit her neck, his hands moving up inside her dress.
"Liar..u fell in love wit me the very moment u entered my cabin..." Her fingers played with his hair, her eyes shut themselves in pleasure.
"So did u..." He left wet kisses on her collar bone, Sanyukta pushed herself further into him, feelin his desire through the cloth.
"It was never lust..." A dreamy smile appeared on her face, as a sense of satisfaction gripped her- There was no lust from the very beginning, it was always love always, which they had termed lust for their own personal reasons.
"No...there wasn't...I had to term it dat, to avoid fallin in love wit u..." He moved his face, to look at her, and stared into her beautiful
eyes, those eyes that had hypnotised him the very first time he had looked into them.
"And yet u fell in love with me..." She naughtily winked, and smacked her lips on his for yet another kiss, which like always held in it a new feeling. Every kiss of theirs was different, every time they made love, it was different- far more beautiful, passionate and love filled than the previous time.
Love stays forever, and only increases or rather deepens with time. unlike Lust, which is temporary and concerned only with one's body only...
