Chapter 3
"Armaan, Its been 6 months and still he hasn't got his memory back." Taani sighed, though a part of her wished he never get his memory back, but then she can't be this selfish. She had watched him everyday getting frustrated, hurt and feeling restless, not being able to remember past two years of his life, it was difficult to live with the feeling that something is missing.
"He is perfectly fine, his reports are normal but we can't say when he will get his memory back. It might return back or it might not." Armaan replied with a sad smile. Taani nodded, she collected Rey's report and left for home, while thoughts of her husband kept her mind occupied.
Everything was going smoothly between them, she had started to forget the initial days of their marriage, and was more comfortable with him. They were falling for each other, she was falling for her husband, again, but doubts and insecurities didn't let her accepted this. She still fear, what will happen when he will get his memory back?

Taani entered her room, was surprised to see him home so early. Rey, who was sitting on his bed, waiting for her, look at her with a smile when he noticed her presence.
"Aap office se itna jaldi?" Taani asked him, she moved toward the closet and placed his reports inside the cupboard, then turned to him. He signaled her to come and sat beside him, she walked over the bed and sat beside him.
"I wanted to spend some time with my beautiful biwi-" Rey mumbled, he shifted close to her and pulled her in his arms, wrapping her arms around him. She relaxed in his arms, over the time, she had got comfortable with him and the intimacy they shared. She still remember the day, when she gave herself to him, again, for the first time after his accident, they come close to each other.
It was any other day, taani was in kitchen, preparing dinner for them when he barged inside, she look at him and felt shiver ran down her spine seeing the anger along with hidden pain in his eyes.
"I want to talk to you." Rey said in calm and composed tone. Taani gave a small nod to him, Rey turned off the gas then turned to her. He held her hand in his, and dragged her upstairs in their bedroom. They stopped near the bed, then he picked up the file from bed and handed it to her. Colors drained off her face seeing the file, it was her medical report, when he made her abort the baby. But it was kept hidden in the closet, she wonder how to found it?
"You were pregnant few months ago, can you tell me what happened that we were forced to abort that child? Its killing me, you know. Since morning i'm trying to remember, not nothing is helping me." Rey sighed in frustration, he was hating the fact that they had to kill their first child, he had to kill his first child.
Taani, she could see he was blaming himself, she did too, but now she knew the truth and she won't let him burn in fire of guilt. She stepped close to him, for the first time on her own.
"Yes, I was pregnant, but i wasn't strong enough to carry the baby. There were many complications which could have cost my life, so to save my life, we had to abort the baby. There is no fault of yours, so stop blaming yourself." Taani whispered softly, tears rolled down her cheeks as she remembered her lost child.
A lone tear escaped his eye, guilt lessen hearing her but his heart mourn over the child they had lost. Then, he look into her eyes, they were filled with pain. Rey wrapped his arms around her and hugged her tightly, knowing their talks had opened her old wounds.
Taani buried her face in his chest and cried softly, they both silently cried for their lost, but being in each other's embrace, gives them comfort and hope.
"Our baby is in better place." Rey mumbled in her ear, taani nodded. Now she has accepted the reality, but a mother's heart can never accept that her child is no more with her.
"Are you alright?" Taani asked him softly, Rey nodded. He dropped a peck on her head and hugged her more tightly. They stayed in each other's arms for go know how long.
The ring of his cell phone, brought them back into their senses. Taani felt conscious, she lifted her head and look at him, Rey stare down at his angel, love visible in his brown orbs which made her inside clenched. She had never seen that look before. Rey leaned, unknowingly, decreasing the distance between their lips. Taani wanted to push him away, but a part of her wanted him, badly.
She closed her eyes, for a moment, leaving her insecurities and pain behind. Rey closed his eyes before he placed his lips on hers. A chill ran through her, feeling his lips on hers. He held back on her neck and started kissing her, first softly then passionately.
Taani responded back to his kiss, she fisted his hair in her fists, holding on to him as her knees started to give away. He wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her up little as they both fall on their bed, with him on top of her. But they didn't stop kissing each other, all the barriers came off. She lost herself in him, once again.
He cherished her, worshiped her body with feathery soft kisses, she felt bliss. It was the moment, she is going to cherish all her life. For once, she didn't wanted to think about what future holds for her, for them. She wanted to live this moment with him and she did, her heart was feeling content.
Taani come out of her trance feeling his lips on her bare back, placing sensuous kisses on her skin. Rey wrapped his arms around her bare waist and pulled her into him, her naked body entangled with his, both were tired after the countless love making sessions, but still craving for each other more. His want for her never decreased, he needed her, she has become his oxygen.
"I love you, sweetheart." He confessed, for the first time. Her body stiffen as his confession sinked in. She doesn't know what to say, how to react. It was too overwhelming and scary too, what if he forget everything that transpired between them, once his memory is back?
