Varna have been looking at her husband.For some time now.Rather it can be said trying to gain his attention.Waiting for his one look.But someone was too busy to give glance.He fixed his glasses.With frown on face and continued working on his laptop.

Making face she took quilt and settled herself on bed.She tapped her feet on bed.Making noise and had water.Keeping back glass with noise.She bit her lip.What was that keeping him so busy.He finally smirked and looked at her.But she was taken a back and hid herself inside blanket.Feeling her heart fluttering with different emotions.She thought he must be back to work now.As she moved blanket and her face emerged.She found him close to her.His eyes passionately staring at her.

Var-"You.Scared me."

V-"Really.What were you doing madam.Breaking my concentration for so long.Im working."

Var-"I didnt do anything.I was only.Doing what I do normally."

V-"hmm.Yeah.Let me finish this work.Will catch you then."

He pinched her nose cutely.At which she widened her mouth.He winked at her and got back to work.She got up now covering herself with quilt.With book on hand.

Var-"Why are you working so late."

V-"Its an important project.We have presentation tomorrow and Rey messed it up at last moment.Dont know whats wrong with him nowadays."

Varna thought of something with mention of Reyaansh.How can she forget her conversation with Nandini other day.She was on two minds if she should share it with Vivaan.

V-"Where are you lost now?Surprised.That creepy book isnt keeping you busy tonight."

Var-"Please its not creepy.Ah.I wanted to tell you something."

Right then Pranush woke up crying.It wasnt usual of him to cry like this in this time.Varna went on to check on him.Taking him in her arms she did everything.To calm him with her kisses.And lulled him back to sleep kissing his head.She made him sleep in middle of bed beside her.

V-"Is he okay?"

Var-"Yeah.Dont know what happened to him lately.He has been acting quite fussy.Gets irritated in small things."

V-"Its all in blood.Got from mothers side."

Var-"As if you are most gentle person ever born.Rude and arrogant."

V-"Me.Rude and arrogant.Excuse me."

Var-"Let it be.Huh."

She closed her eyes hugging baby.Pretending to sleep.He laughed and could feel her anger.He cant miss on look at her face when he irritates her.After some time he was done with work and switched off his laptop.He found mother son duo sleeping.Smile came to his face seeing them.He washed his face and came back dimming lights.As he settled on bed.kissing his baby.His smile went off hearing buzz of his phone.It was message from doctor that Varnas reports arrived.He should collect them tomorrow.Vivaan looked at Varna not being able to sleep.He was wishing hard.To let things be normal in their life now.He cant handle any more mess.

She has seen his face from morning.When he asked her to be ready once he finishes his work.And comes back they have to visit doctors clinic for her reports.She couldnt understand reason he was so much into these routine check ups and reports.Was there something he was hiding from her.Last she remembered she was critical when they were in Chennai.Her condition worsened due to her ignorance towards her and mental stress.But some memories also started getting back to her mind.She bit her lips as it strike her.Back in Australia how it all started.When it was discovered her medical problem.Its been long time she let it go.As she is believing to start new life now.She prayed nothing to go hard on her.Just let it be easy.Vivaan looked at her tensed face.

V-"Relax.Im sure there is nothing serious."

She gave fake smile and nod to him.Deep inside both were experiencing something they cant express to each other.

"Please have seat Mr and Mrs Reddy.Thanks for sending me your wife's previous reports.They helped me a lot."

Vivaan gave nod to doctor.Who was having smile on face as he welcomed them both.Varna wasnt aware when he sent her old reports.Both were waiting for doctor to say something.He again checked reports with frown.

"So.Mrs Reddy how do you feel now?"

Var-"Im fine.Just feel little weak sometimes."

V-"Doctor is everything alright.I mean reports are okay right."

Doctor took off his glasses and waited for a second.

"Yes everything is fine.I dont see any major complications in her case.Except weakness.Which has been there for long time.I doubt she has taken care of that.Not eating well.Too much stress or what."

Vivaan glared at her.Sensing quite well how she has been ignoring herself.More than than mental tension.Between them and her family also made things worse.He couldnt even blame her fully.

V-"Im sorry doctor.Actually there has been some tension for quite some time.But I do promise from this time.She wont ignore her health anymore.If she does.I will myself get her admitted here."

She looked at him with shock.Before she could say anything doctor laughed at them.

"Well I dont think that will be needed.Your husband cares  a lot about you.Mrs Reddy and thats why he has been restless from time we got your tests done.I can feel that."

Vivaan bowed his head down.While Varna stared at him with admiration in her eyes.

"See I wont hide anything from you.She had an infection in her uterus which prolonged for long time.She has been treated also but unfortunately in such cases.It keeps coming back.Thats why fever weakness.Mood swings and sudden break downs are expected.There is nothing to worry about.Im writing down some medicines.And she has to be in routine check up.I believe everything will be fine."

Vivaan and Varna looked at each other.Finally some relief came to their hearts.That one blink conveyed.How much free they felt.Varna wasnt afraid of anything now.She felt as if she has gained some strength back to fight anything in life.He will be there for her.Vivaan believed on that good things will happen.He will stand strong no matter what happens.He kept on mind to inform Priyam about reports.As she would be worrying.

Outside hospital they were buying medicines when Varna saw couple.Admiring them as wife was pregnant and husband was handling her with so much care.Vivaan saw her.

V-"I will ask Mom to take your class.If possible keep nurse for you.Who will set you right."

He checked on her not responding to him.And found her busy watching couple with smile on her face.For moment Vivaan also smiled and imagined themselves like that.He couldnt stop smiling with that dream.Him handling rather irritated Varna.She was pregnant with his baby.Their baby.He came back from this dream.Being called out by guy asking for money.

On their way back home.They stopped in stall on side of road.As Varna requested him first time she wants to have chaat.She was badly craving for something tangy.As he saw her relishing food he never seen before.He smiled finally feeling relieved.

V-"Finally something that Varna likes.This is surprise to me.You love street food."

Var-"Why ?I was fond of them always.Just that.I never got time to enjoy like this."

V-"It didnt go with your image."

He had water and can see her glare at him.As they paid bill and made their way towards car.She got inside fastening seat belt.

Var-"You judge people too easily.Mr Vivaan Reddy.Specially when there is a lot more about them.You may not be aware about.Some deep secrets folded in moulds."

He came closer to her.Till she became conscious of their surroundings.Feeling shy.As he spoke huskily.

V-"Well.Then I would love to unfold those secrets.Discover depth sooner.Right Mrs Reddy.Lets go home."

Her face flushed with redness as they drove back to home.

Life without commotion wasnt normal for them.It has become definite thing in their lives.As they could hear Lata's voice.From outside of  premises.Vikram and Shivani were giving angry looks to Reyaansh who stood with his head bowed down.Lata was furious over him.Vivaan and Varna exchanged confused looks.

L-"Im shocked that you did something like this Reyaansh.You disappointed me so much.How did you let this happen.Tell me.I want answers now.Dont stay quiet."

Reyaansh looked at Vivaan and Varna.Feeling ashamed of argument that was taking place.He wasnt convinced himself of reason.Why Nandini did that.What will he tell his family.

V-"Mom Dad.What happened."

Sh-"Nandini came back from camp few days ago.We got to know when her friend called.Informing us that she is not well and at her place.Cant believe these kids."

V-"What.But why did she do that?"

Varna was clueless as how girl like Nandini with stable mind would do this.All she could remember problems between her and Reyaansh and now.Their discussion regarding this and her mind went blank thinking about her condition.

Sh-"Lata calm down.Shouting wont help.Rey if there was some problem between you both.You could have sorted it out.How does it look.If your wife goes away leaving home.We all are very disappointed."

R-"Mami I didnt knew.She.She didnt tell me and."

Vik-"Why is it that she has to tell you.She is your wife.Isnt it your duty to know about her well being."

L-"that girl looked disturbed from some time.I asked her many times but she didnt say word.I doubt if problem is big to be solved."

V-"aththai relax.Nothing will happen.Rey you come with me.Now."

Vivaan almost dragged Reyaansh with him to have clear idea.About whatever was going on.Varna stood tensed.If she should tell everyone about what she knew.

Reyaansh was sitting with lost look on face.He had streaks of tears in eyes.Vivaan could see him losing real self he was from face.He lost a lot weight it seemed.Not taking care of himself.He wondered what would have happened.The brothers were in garden area.Reyansh shut his eyes feeling hand on his back.

V-"Whats troubling you Rey.You didnt even tell me.I have been bad brother I know.Already troubled with my own problems.You were there for me whenever I needed you and I.Im sorry."

R-"No Anna please.Dont say that.Its all my fault.I should have.Watched my words."

V-"You guys had fight?"

Seeing him nod Vivaan was slowly getting into hook of things.He shook his head.

V-"Which couple dont fight.Its normal.If you dont then its problem.But leaving home like this.Nandu isnt someone who would take such step.for some small issue.I do believe that."

Reyaansh caught his head.Feeling a pain and his heart pained more.Only he knew how he has been cursing himself over these days.Not finding her close to him.When it was him who messed it up.

R-"I failed it to understand her maybe.Or she did.Whatever happened.It was.I never thought of.I never imagined she would leave me like this Anna.I.I never told her to.I thought she will be back and.We can talk then."

After some time Vivaan got up and helped Reyaansh too.Holding him strongly and taking his phone.He asked her to call Nandini.Reyaansh was scared.If his one step makes him lose her.

V-"Rey call her and tell her.That you are going to get her back.To this house.Her home.Where she belongs to.Come on."

Reyaansh felt his hand shaking but as he heard her voice on other side.Tears came out of her eyes.Vivaan gave him privacy and took deep breathe.What would have happened that made matter between them so worse.

Nandini was back home.Though Reyaansh and her were not back to normal.But things sobered down little bit.She could see love and guilt in his eyes for her.As he got her back home.Others felt it wasnt time to discuss about it.Vivaan asked them to give couple some time.They will surely figure it out.

Varna was making bed when Vivaan came to room.With Pranush sleeping in his arms.He settled her in crib.It was long day indeed.One side tension for Varna eased whereas this new problem arised.

V-"How is Nandu now?"

Var-"She is fine.Guess she needs rest."

He gave nod to her as she went to dressing table.To do her routine for night.Before going to sleep.She opened tie of her hair.Letting it fall on her shoulder.Taking some oil and slowly massaging her hair.She found him staring at her with longing look.As she asked him he shook his head.But in no time she found him closer to him.

V-"Can I?"

She was startled to find him standing in front of her.Asking him permission as he touched her hair.Next moment he was massaging long traces of her hair.Like that gently.His simple touch made her shiver from inside.Though he was so close.He knew he was affecting her.He has been goner for her hair.For some reason he didnt feel like controlling himself tonight.

Var-"What.What are you doing.Why.Let it be.I will do that."

V-"Why.You can trust me with this."

She became less nervous as his talks made things more easy.He made her sit on bed.While he played more with her hair.

V-"You know when I was kid.I used to give some good massage to Mom.She had long hair too."

Var-"You used to do these things also."

She laughed at him not fully showing.He gave her look and continued doing his work.

V-"Whats there to laugh about.I have this thing for long hair.I remember Aththai used to read me Cinderella stories and there.She always had long hair.Thats what Prince loved most about her."

He had dreamy look on face.But within moments it vanished as he could hear her laugh.She wouldnt stop even seeing him glaring at her.She caught her tummy.It hurt badly due to laughing.She covered her mouth.

V-"Whats so funny."

She took bottle of oil from him.Now roaming her hand on her traces.Seeing he did some good work.She was impressed.

Var-"Vivaan Reddy was fond of Cinderella stories.I would have never imagined this.Who would believe that."

V-"You are being mean.Like every child depends on such bedtime stories.Okay.Must thing for sleep.Big deal."

Var-"Well I was never interested.Things like a Prince will come.Take you away in white horse.Can only happen in dreams.reality is far different."

V-"Yes what else to expect from you.Ms boring."

Var-"What did you say."

V-"nothing.Tell me something.You have always been like this.Not interested in girly stuff.Like dressing up.Make up shopping and all."

Var-"I  used to do whats needed.Wasnt fond of them.Im happy with whatever I get."

He smiled now that he started knowing her.It was true she had no demand in life.Even now as wife she never asks anything from him.He held her hand and made him sit with him.He settled his head on her lap.She became little conscious.As he shut his eyes she touched his head with her hand.His hair felt soft.

V-"Be like this Varna.Its rare to find someone like you.So precious.So simple."

Var-"I dont know what being precious means.But yeah I always wanted things.To be simple with me."

Vivaan opened his eyes and looked at her.She had dreamy spark in her eyes.It felt so good to see her like that.Even shade of gloominess have left her face.He took her hand and kissed it.Making her take it back.He showed his eyes and got it back keeping it near his heart.As he closed his eyes again.Little things made her happy.Yes like she was feeling now.Her eyes wouldnt stop glistening with tears.Of being happy.Varna wondered if being happy means this and smiled from heart.

Reyaansh was staring at his wife.Sleeping beside him.She looked weak and broken from inside.She didnt had strength to argue with him today.But he could see love in her eyes for him.She felt her cheeks wet and opened her eyes.Finding her husband shedding tears.He tried hiding them but she touched his hand.

N-"If you love me this much.Why do you hurt me then."

R-"I have been torturing myself.From time I realized how pathetic I have been towards you Nandu.Please forgive me."

N-"No.You are very bad."

R-"Im worst fellow.I know.Was always lucky to get wife like you.See what I did.Messed everything up.Even if you leave me now.I promise to be there for you.Keep loving you."

She smiled through tears.Fighting them back as she couldnt stop herself from hugging him back.Both conveyed a lot through this one hug.It felt after ages they are feeling each other.Nandini cried holding on to his shirt.He kissed her head.

R-"Nandu.Im sorry.Lets forget everything."

N-"Im sorry too Rey.I think we both were at fault.But for me you have to hear so much from our family."

R-"They are right.Im fool anyways.Tell me you arent angry with me anymore."

She shook her head and both smiled finally.Ending fight and suddenly he could see her expressions changing.She got up and there was change in expressions on her face.

N-"Rey.I need to tell you something.There was another reason why I didnt come home from camp.I was scared."

R-"Scared of what?"

N-"You.Because of reason we fought.I.I couldnt face you."

R-"Nandu didnt we discussed now.Let it be.We will start fresh now.You need to rest come."

She started crying again.Her face became red and she sobbed badly.He was confused how to make her feel better.He cupped her cheeks and took her in his arms.

R-"Its okay.It was bad phase and we are over that sweetheart.Lets plan trip.Maybe we will feel better."

N-"I need to tell you something."

R-"Hmm."

N-"Im pregnant."

R-"Okay.what?"

She came out of his arms and looked down.Nervous and scared as hell.He was still in shock.Which made her more tensed.She felt lump on her throat.She was dreading this reaction from him only.

N-"Im sorry.I wanted to tell you this before but I was scared.I.I didnt knew how to break this news to you.I came to know when I was in medical camp and thats why.I couldnt come here.I was scared."

R-"Say what.Scared?"

N-"Yes.Because you werent ready for baby.Thats why we had this huge argument.Im sorry Rey I dont know how this happened.I.I."

He stopped her by covering her mouth.She was surprised to see him taking her in tightest hug and expressing his happiness.As he smiled through tears and kissed her forehead.

R-"Who gets scared with such news.You are idiot.You made me happiest man today.Im going to be father.We are going to become parents."

N-"You are happy.With this news?"

R-"I feel like dancing now.This is most special moment of my life."

She cried and he hid her in his arms.Both felt content after so long.Being in each others arms.After some time.She felt him keeping hand on her stomach and she smiled.

N-"Rey.I thought you didnt wanted to have baby.When I mentioned about this to you before.You said something else."

R-"I know but I gave it thought.You know Nandu.I thought it will be difficult for you to manage your work and baby.I have always wanted you to become successful doctor like it was your dream.And if this baby comes you have to compromise with it.I wasnt ready for that.Thats why I said all pathetic stuff to you.So that you shun this idea now."

N-"You are an idiot.do you know how I felt from time.I got to hear from you that.You dont see me as mother.I wont be able to handle responsibilities of baby and what not.I thought you would be angry with this news."

R-"My wife is perfect in whatever she does.I know that.But Nandu promise me whatever happens.You wont step back from your dream.I dont want you to do that.This baby will be our responsibility.And I promise I will try my best to be better Dad than husband."

She smiled and smacked his shoulder.Thinking over bad phase they passed.But whatever happens it didnt lasted for long she was glad.

N-"For every girl becoming a mother.Is also part of her dream Rey.Only woman can understand this feeling.I cant express how I feel now.Life inside me taking breath.Its symbol of our love."

R-"It is.I love you."

N-"I love you too.But how are we breaking news to everyone.They must be tensed for us."

R-"Well.This will help to make them happy.Our baby is our savior.Lets tell them in morning what say."

N-"Yeah.Mom will be very happy.Even my parents."

R-"Did you tell anyone else?"

N-"Only my friend knew since she is doctor and checked me.But.You know Rey.There is something else I should share with you.I.I told about our fight to Varna.I was feeling very low about this and couldnt help.Shared it with her."

R-"Varna?Like really.She would have attacked me with her shoes."

N-"No.In fact I was quite surprised the way she made me understand.About small things that matter in relationship.She advised me that we both should give some space to each other and think about this.Instead of arguing with each other.She was confident that we will be fine soon.You know I havent seen her so calm.About anything till now.I feel this is Varna we never got to see.And Im so glad she was there for me.Didnt make me feel weak.Or be alone."

R-"She is different but precious.That I knew always.So I should thank her personally.For giving me my wife back."

N-"I really hope she gets what she deserves in her life.Nothing but happiness.And I guess we can see that happening already."

Vivaan widened his eyes in shock.Seeing her having water casually and pulling blanket over herself on bed.

V-"Are you serious.You knew about this Reyaansh Nandini problem.Didnt tell anyone about this?"

Var-"Yeah.I knew.Nandu shared it with me and it was very personal thing.Better if they sort it out on their own."

V-"And you see what happened.Not always we expect that to happen.I cant believe that Rey would do such stupid thing.They had love marriage.Like they knew each other from before.I thought they had better understanding."

Var-"Its not always necessary.Every couple is different and have their issues.I was sure they love each other so much.Wont be able to be away for long time.Thats what happened.Instead of making it big matter.It was better both take some time to get back together.Have better understanding about each other.Her friend was dumb to call at our home.She should have called Reyaansh instead."

She raised her brows finding him giving her blank look.

Var-"What?"

V-"Am I talking with the Varna Shetty?Like really.Who knows so much about relationships.Wow Im impressed."

With that he got closer to her.Making her jump in her place.Lights were dimmed off and his presence made her heart skip beat.

Var-"Whats weird here.I did what I felt like.It was very personal thing.I dont think we should have come between them."

V-"hmm you are right.But Im surprised Nandu shared it with you.Not me when we were on good talking terms."

Var-"I can smell something burning."

V-"Oh please.Im happy that you consider yourself as part of this family now.Taking care of everyone.Being there.Loving everyone except.Your husband."

She rolled her eyes taking pillow.Covering her face with it.He took it from her and faced her.

Var-"If you are done with your analysis.Im sleepy.Let me sleep.I.wanted to tell you about this yesterday only but.Something or other came in between.I hope you are not angry."

V-"If I say Im.Then."

She could see look on his face changing.She was thinking if this would create problem between them again.Seeing him so serious she found her fear coming true.But he started laughing making her frown.

Var-"You love doing that.To me dont you."

She took back pillow from him.Fighting it out as he wouldnt stop laughing.She made face at him.Suddenly when he stopped and came really close to her.Their faces were very close.She could feel his breathe.As he gazed at her lips.His thumb tracing it.She shut her eyes trying to move her face other side.Though they kissed few times.Still she feels goosebumps every time he would eye her lips.He dig his head.In her neck making it difficult for her to breathe.He smirked and let his nose rub her cheek.She gasped.

Var-"Vivaan.Please."

V-"I would love to do a lot of things.With you.Only if you allow me to."

She opened her eyes.Her face was red as she felt shy.Feeling him so close in this same bed.He held her waist pulling him closer to her.His hand traveled up wrecking her nerves.He could see her melting in his hold.She felt light kiss on her forehead.He smiled only touching her cheeks.

V-"Someone was sleepy.While ago."

He switched off lights finally.Shifting her in his arms.Varna felt this change in her life.As she was nervous being in his arms.Sleeping like that.Previous two nights it was unlike how she felt today.At that time she was so much emotionally drained that it didnt allow her to experience this feeling.But tonight she felt it with tears in her eyes.Keeping her head on his chest.As his hand rubbed her back slowly.She never knew one can feel like this.So much content and comfort being like this.Vivaan smiled with closed eyes.The fact that her heart have given acceptance to them.Meant much more precious to him than anything.No matter what happens.He wont let anything come between their relationship now.Be it his own fear or guilt.Or anxiety whatever it is.He was firm in his stand.

Morning became more bright filled with happiness in air.When Reyaansh and Nandini announced their good news to everyone.Lata cried out of happiness.Forgiving his son and blessing them for new journey in their life.Vikram and Shivani were also happy.With news of new baby arriving in their family.Pranush didnt understand what was happening.But he joined everyone seeing them happy.He kissed Reyaansh being picked up by him.Giving sloppy kisses to Nandini which melted everyones hearts.Everyone got busy congratulating the would be parents.Planning about what and what not to do.Vivaan went to Reyaansh and punched lightly on his shoulder before giving him tight hug.

V-"Congratulations brother.Get ready to be Dad now.Your good days starting now."

R-"Anna Im so excited.I need your help.With this experience.I mean.I cant wait to hold my baby."

Sh-"Rey its long journey now.You have to be patient for months."

Nandini blushed badly as everyone teased her.Specially due to her husbands weird questions which made everyone laugh.But her happiness knew no bounds.Seeing him this excited for their baby.She felt tap on her shoulder.Soon piece of cake was stuffed in her mouth.

Var-"Would be mommy.Needs to eat well from now."

N-"Varnaa.Thank you."

A beautiful hug was shared witnessed by Vivaan and Reyaansh.Nandini held Varnas hands and her eyes said it all.

Var-"Congratulations Nandu.Im so happy for you.You are going to be very loving mother.Im sure."

N-"Im thankful to you Varna.If you wouldnt have been with me.I dont know.What I would have done mentally broken.Thanks.And you were right.It worked like that only.Reyaansh is so happy with this news.I dont know when I have seen him this happy.Last time."

Var-"You both love each other so much.Now no more fights.Tell me.How is cake."

N-"Yummmy.I want more."

After while everyone gathered in lounge.Still in mood to celebrate news.With special cake made by Varna.Vivaan's eyes were looking for someone.Till he saw her busy with Nandini smiling.He gazed at her and she saw that.Eyeing him to stop doing that if anyone would catch them.But Vivaan was Vivaan.He moved his head sideways declaring to her.He wont stop till she comes to him.

He held her hand saving themselves from all eyes.Varna panicked like teenager who would get caught by anyone.

Var-"What are you doing."

V-"Holding my wife's hands.Its legal."

Var-"You are mad.All are here.Leave me."

V-"Fine.Give me something sweet.I will leave you."

He took some cream from cake.Making sure no one was watching them.He licked that from his finger.Making her all red with his hint.He was asking for kiss and she knew that well.Varna saw him advancing towards her.As she stepped back.Both their eyes were locked.Till someone came breaking their moment.

P-"Ammaaaaa.Dollly no play.Ammaaaaa."

Pranush was savior for Varna.She took breath of relief.Picking him up in her arms and saw him having cake.Smearing all chocolate cream on his face.Vivaan made face and mocked at his fate for perfect timing of his son.He went to him cooing his cheek.

Var-"Here take your son.Both of you can enjoy your sweet cravings together."

She passed baby to him hiding her smile.He couldnt do anything with everyones presence but smile at his son.Who was aiming for cake on table again.His hands were also filled with cream.He held them and acted as if he will bite him.

V-"Chub see what you have done.Lets go and take shower now.Before your amma catches us."

He took some cream and tasted it.Making Pranush laugh loudly clapping his hands.Both ran for their lives from there.Varna saw that and laughed.

Its been few weeks since Nandini's pregnancy news was out.Whole house was set out to take care for her.Alongside Vivaans strict instructions were also given for Varna.Shivani and Lata made sure both daughter in laws were made to eat healthy and take rest properly.Reyaansh was active on different level.Everyday coming up with something to annoy Nandini.Others would laugh at his discoveries.Of how to be perfect father.Nandini would sleep but he wont stop reading some books to her about having baby.He would even forget she is doctor.Being after her with her food and every thing she does.His eyes were on her.

N-"Rey.Im pregnant not sick.Please stop worrying about me.And I dont feel like having milk shake now.I want ice cream."

This was fifth time her taste buds were changing today.As Vivaan came back from office.Finding Reyaansh rushing outside in hurry.Varna finished her chores for evening smiling at Nandini.As both laughed at Reyaansh.

V-"Very bad.You both are laughing at my poor brother.Making him run for life."

N-"He is going to be father too.So better he learns from now."

V-"Right.Why this silence.Where is chub.He didnt find anything to break today.Or mood is off."

Var-"He is playing with dolls.After giving good shower to my phone.Im planning to dump it somewhere."

N-"Actually kids nowadays have this fascination for phones.From start only."

Vivaan entered his room and found his son playing with dolls.He was talking to them in his broken language.Looking happy.

V-"Chubbb.From now only you like dolls.Look at this one long hair and other one with curls.You have long way to go wow."

He chuckled feeling proud of what his father said to him.Varna came with tea.Shaking her head at father son.She was folding babys clothes.

V-"See your son have already busied himself.Choosing daughter in laws.How smart he is."

Var-"Stop teasing him.Whats wrong if he plays with dolls.His father used to sleep reading cinderella stories."

She went to little one taking him on her lap.He as if understood she was taking his side.Started pampering her with kisses.Vivaan looked at them standing with his hands on waist.

V-"So much love for amma.No kiss for me haa.This brat."

He joined duo tickling baby as he laughed loud.Three of them had some good fun before dinner.

It was a perfect lazy Sunday.The elders of house went to some relatives place for whole day.Younger lot decided to chill and watch some movie.Ordering food from outside.The weather was very sunny.Vivaan took bowl of popcorn and settled on cozy couch.Alice was running after him.Reyaansh and Nandini also came to lounge.Making themselves comfortable in another couch.Varna went to make Pranush sleep.It was his nap time after lunch.

R-"Anna lets watch horror movie.Some latest one.I will switch off lights and turn this place dark.What say."

N-"Good idea."

V-"Very bad idea.You are forgetting she is pregnant.When will you start using your brain Rey."

N-"But I want to watch horror.I will be fine."

R-"Nandu baby.We cant take risk.its okay when baby will come.We all will watch together."

V-"Right."

He tried hiding his laugh.Seeing both busy arguing.Nandini's mood swings were already showing and Reyaansh had hard time pacifying her.Vivaan saw his wife having water.He eyed her to come to him.

V-"Pranu sleeping?"

Var-"Yeah.I have to go and check on him.Whats wrong here."

N-"Varna you tell these guys.I want to watch horror movie.Thats it.Else Im going."

Var-"I think I have better idea.There is this movie.Which is comedy and horror both.So we can watch that.What say?"

R-"You sure?"

Varna eyed Reyaansh and Vivaan both that it will be fine.As movie was pure comedy only.With funny horror backdrop.Which wont be harmful for Nandini.Finally Nandini was happy as movie started.In one couch were Reyaansh and Nandini.Other one was Vivaan and Varna.

Four of them were busy enjoying movie.To be precise two of them only.When Vivaan was in mood of something else.He was teasing Varna.Touching her hair.Or face again and again.Finding ways to tease her.Obviously making her read.She adjusted her stole showing him eyes.When he smirked and settled his head on her lap.She didnt mind that.Both were watching movie for change.

Reyaansh was laughing when his eyes fell on different scene.Popcorn fell from his hand.He nudged Nandini.Who got irritated.

N-"Will you let me watch or not Rey.Whats wrong."

R-"A different movie is going on here.See that."

Nandini also got shock.Seeing Vivaan and Varna so close like this.Both shared look and couldnt believe their eyes.

R-"Is this dream or what.Pinch me."

N-"I think.This is real.But I wasnt expecting this.So soon."

Nandini smiled as seeing duo like couple was beautiful thing.Vivaan and Varna caught them staring at them.They frowned and then understood reason.

V-"Ahem.Movie is going on there.Not here guys."

R-"Anna this one is nice too.Surprise edition."

Vivaan threw pillow at Reyaansh and he started running for his life.Alice chased them too.Nandini and Varna remained seated asking brothers to calm down.But they have gone out already.Nandini could see red hue on Varnas face that day.Which said a lot.Her silence wasnt silence but acknowledgement she gave to her relationship with Vivaan.

Life was getting better in different ways.Varna walked in silence enjoying breeze.Light smile played on her lips.She adjusted her hair swaying with wind.Her heart was at peace.She was seeking for.She believed so.Her smile deepened watching Vivaan and Pranush playing with Alice.Something she always desired deep down.She wished to have her family.Wasnt this perfect life.It was beautiful dream she was living.
