Neerja was literally happy when her husband agreed to take her for a movie date  on evening show. She was feeling much better and the baby must have obeyed his/her father. Neerja was waken up by hearing to study class her husband was giving to their baby. When he kept on chatting with their baby , rubbing his long nose along her naval and his tender kisses melted her heart. For sometime even after she woke up, she stayed still so that she could enjoy the funny conversation between the father and the child.

"Neeru, how do you feel now", Sameer asked. "Well , I am a bit fine. The pain has subsided much more. Did you take bath now", she was puzzled when she surfed through his wet hairs. "Err.. actually it was kind of a bath. Some sort off..." , he muddled in between the words.

"Do you have any problem? I am sorry Sam. I know very well that you are way too tensed about me. It's all my mistake isn't it? I  shouldn't have bothered you all the time", her eyes welled up.She adjusted her pillow to back of her bed. "Shut Neeru", Sameer playfully smacked her hand. He adjusted his head on her stomach. "Who said that you bothered me.. ..Even if you bothered me infinite times , I should be lucky to say that there is someone for me in this life. Do you know how much lonely I was... Before you came to my life? All alone.. I ate food alone. Slept alone. Nobody was there to talk with me.. No one was there at this doorstep to welcome me with a warm smile on the face..Now I feel very very happy and contented, Neeru. We both are therefore eachother. Within7 months we will be joining our baby! Isn't it baby?", he nuzzled his long nose along her naval which tickled Neerja. She ruffled his hair. She was enjoying alot when Sameer keep on advicing his baby not to trouble amma too much. " Neeru, you know onething ? I feel our baby is a girl ", he stroked her cheek.

"Seriously?", Neerja was amused. "I am the mom. I am the one who is carrying her. I say our baby must be a boy", Neerja said. "No ", Sameer chided like a baby." I can feel her very well, she is dancing ", he winked. " Stop whining like a baby, Sam".Neerja sat upright. "Baby, tell your amma that you are a girl. When you come out , nanna will buy you anklets. Nanna will teach you dance." Sameer talked in a baby tone. Neerja was laughing her heart out too see baby version of her husband. " I f baby doesn't mind, shall I take both of you out for a movie night?", he looked quizzically at his wife.

Neerja's dove eyes were widened."You must be joking! Sam, it's still raining. You will catch fever", she was worried. "Nothing can catch your husband well , when he is stood beside by his better half darlingey.."he poked her nose. Indeed in her mind Neerja was jumping due to happiness. This is the first time her husband has decided to take her for a movie date. Even after the marriage, he was hell bent not to move out or being social with others. He never forbade his wife to go for shopping or watching movies or attending parties.He worked like a bull day and night during working periods. Since he was promoted from delivery boy to furniture designer as he was majored in that, Sameer was earning an amount in his hands. Sometimes he came midnight, not because of his work schedule. But transforming himself as a wolf , he goes for hunting...

Her inner mind was quarreling on which dress has to be worn.Saree or Salwar? Her mind confused. Sameer was keenly observing her actions. He pulled out a dark red maxi which was her calf length and a sweater for her. Since it was a loose one, he felt that would fit to her form and free for her. He pulled out the dress and hanged it around her shoulder. "Wear this Neeru.. I believe you would look cute in this". She stared at the dress for a minute and again started searching for sarees and salwars. "Darlingey....", Sameer called."Just wear this, you look too good in it. That's what I have been telling you upteenth time!". 

Neerja stood for a while. "this is the first time I am going for a date in my entire life. I want it to be memorable. So...hmmm....... I will go with saree!", she proudly took a sky blue simple saree and spread across her body. Sameer felt defeated. He wore his red short in front of her and went back silently. "Red shirt? well I will go with red saree.."Neerja started searching for her red dress. But she failed to find out a red saree or salwar. Her eyes finally hooked on to red maxi her husband gave her. 

"Sam wears red shirt! So I go with red maxi !". Sameer was watching carefully at the doorway his wife atlast succumbing to his deal. A smile spread across his face and he packed his bag.

                                                 *********************************

Sameer and Neerja were grabbing snacks and items from the store. Neerja was grabbing more organic chocolate and milk cartons from the store. On the contrary Sameer grabbed veggies and food items and groceries. Again 1 hour was left for the movie to begin.

"Sam, seriously did we come here to watch the movie or to buy groceries?", Neerja was puzzled. "Both", Sameer smiled. It was hilarious to see Neerja was frowning with the end of her lips curled upto end.

                                                                  ********************

Neerja's mind was wandering to seventh heaven when Sameer was planting kisses on her face. With the deep romantic melodious song playing, they were sitting in a secluded corner place where no one notices. Sameer slowly pulled up her maxi and started massaging her thigh. Neerja was astonished to see her husband's bold move. When his fingers were slowly moving up and nibbling her ears the theater lights were finally switched on. Neerja was totally embarassed and Sameer's face was flushed like red tomato. Slowly he helped Neerja to stand up and they led towards the exit door.

Neerja was waiting at the entrance for Sameer as he gone to pick up the baggage from the luggage store. Once he collected, they embarked their journey towards the hotel. Neerja was amazed with the ambience of the hotel. Finally the couple was led to a spot which was reserved. 

"Good evening , sir. Good evening, mam", Neerja was startled to listen. There she saw a handsome man walking up to them. Later they were distributed a delicious dinner in the amidst of candle light. "Neeru, this is Mahesh my client", Sameer introduced the hotel owner to his wife. Mahesh pulled over a seat beside them. "Are you from Hyderabad?", Neerja asked Mahesh. "Yes, Mam. Indeed... Actually I own a hotel chain across Hyderabad and Kolkata. When business flourished , I decided to stay here", later Mahesh and Sameer indulged in a friendly chit chat while Neerja indulged in a relishing treat.

                                                            Allu Arjun as Mahesh (Special appearance)

"Mam, I must say that you are indeed very much lucky to get a husband like Mr.Sameer", Mahesh pulled his chair closer. "When I was running behind furniture that could be used as multi-purpose ones, none of the designs really appreciated by me. but this guy- in such a very brief and crisp manner , he struck with a deal with me. Believe me madam, all the furnitures including the chair you sit and the table where we are dining right now have been done in a signature stroke of your husband!", Neerja was astonished to listen this.

Sameer was calmly having his dinner with a never ending smile on his face. "Actually Mahesh, you should give this whole credit to my wife. My muse! If she and my baby wouldn't have been there, nothing could have been come out in a fruitful manner", Sameer smiled.

Mahesh was dumbstruck for a while."Baby...Are you both expecting?", Neerja blushed and immersed her face into her husband's chest. "Sameer ji congratulations!", Sameer was pulled into a bone crushing hug by Mahesh. 

"For your Son, Sameer ji", Mahesh tossed. "No way", Sameer stood up angrily. "It's a girl..It's a girl baby..Isn't it Neeru. Ask my baby", Sameer grabbed Neerja by her waist. Neerja was embarassed as people started observing them and Mahesh was standing with a guilty face. 

"I am sorry Sameer ji. It was a tongue slip. For your daughter, Sameerji! May the god bless her with all the happiness, success and health", finally Sameer was brought to his normal state.The night was filled with fun and laughter. Later Sameer and Neerja bid goodbye to Mahesh and moved towards their apartment.

                                                                    *****************************

Neerja was pushed towards the wall once they were inside their apartment. Sameer pulled off her sweater and her red maxi was pulled up. His fingers started roaming her thigh and back while he was smooched deeply by his wife. When he understood she was getting wilder, he scooped her up and put slowly on the bed. Since it was raining heavily, added to the cold atmosphere the art of love making was passionately going on inside their cosy bedroom. He slipped off her red maxi, while she tore his shirt breaking it's buttons. Finally he freed her from her inner wears, her breasts were kneaded in his palm. "Perfect!", he smirked. Neerja was observing him keenly. Her dove eyes with long lashes and plump lips were making him mad.

Neerja slowly unbuttoned his pants and finally their naked bodies were covered with blanket. Sameer kissed her forehead many times, finally moving towards down. Neerja grabbed him by his shoulders but he cuffed her hands above her head by his hands. Her legs were sealed in between his legs , finally she was at his mercy. When Sameer kissed her lower abdomen , realisation hit in his mind about his life  was growing in her. Neerja who was eagerly waiting for the next step from her husband, finally realised that the weight above her body was being carried away. Her hands and legs are now free. When she opened her eyes, she saw the other face of her husband sitting at the edge of their bed, immersed in deep thoughts.

Neerja was scared to see her husband like this. She pulled of her blanket to her chest and moved towards him." What happened , Sam? What's bothering you?", she cupped his face. "Iam sorry , Neeru", his eyes welled up. Neerja was taken aback. Sameer cried his heart out immersing his face in Neerja's chest. Neerja slowly patted his back until he transformed back to his normal form. " I shouldn't have made you pregnant. I shouldn't have taken you in my life.I ruined you. i broke you." Sameer said in his hiccups.

Neerja was dumbstruck to listen these words from his mouth. She slapped him. "Just say it once again! Look at my face and say it once again!", she roared. Sameer hung his head in shame.

 "I know what is bothering you. Since our baby is gonna be a half human, you won't be able to take me to hospital , would you? You believe you can't take me to hospital for delivery since god knows what form our baby will be born, isn't it? Right from the beginning itself we took an oath together. I n all sickness, health and every moment we will be together. We won't be alone..."

Sameer now could understand the hard hitting truth of his life. "Do you think this union is nothing but a sham? Do you believe our love was just a fake? Our baby is a sinner.....?", Neerja broke down. "No!", Sameer closed her mouth with his palm."Don't say like that, never in my dreams I have thought like that", he murmered. 

"But your eyes say.. Sam. Do you think I wasn't noticing you all these days? Your tensions..worries for our baby..My husband isn't a coward. We will do it together sam", she assured. "But how?", Sameer blinked his eyes.

"We will take our baby's birth together. You will help me to deliver our child.No matter what. I will do it- For our baby, For US", she said pulling Sameer's face close to her. Now she could see a determination in Sameer's eyes. Sameer and Neerja kept their hands on her womb. He felt he could feel the assurance of their child.

"We are there with you, always...Amma and Nanna will always be there looking for you", they said looking at each other's eyes which an ocean full of emotions.
