Author's POV:

The next morning, Maya came out of the bathroom after having a shower. She was looking pale and worn out due to the morning sickness. She sat on the bed, leaning her head back on the headboard. Avi, who came from the gym, sighed, looking at her.

He looked at the side table and saw the juice untouched.

"Didn't you drink juice, bunny?" Avi asked her.

"I didn't like the smell. You drink that. I'll drink orange juice after I go down," she said, sighing.

He nodded his head and moved to freshen up. Maya got up and moved to their closet. She picked up his outfit and necessities and changed her dress. She moved out of the closet and placed his things on the bed.

He came out of the bathroom after having his shower when he got a call from his PA. He sat on the bed, talking to his PA, giving him instructions about something. She sighed, looking at him, and grabbed a towel. She started drying his hair, as he caught a cold easily while he encircled his one hand around her waist, pulling her close to him.

He started to sneeze, making her groan.

"Did you again have a cold shower?" Maya asked, gritting her teeth.

Avi smiled sheepishly and told her to keep mum as he didn't want his PA to hear them.

She glared at him and started to scold him, "Idiot, stupid, monkey, donkey. First of all, you don't know how to take care of yourself, but give me a big lecture. How many times have I told you to not have cold showers? But will you listen to me? You'll say that I'll throw tantrums, but more than me, it's you who throw tantrums."

He cut the call immediately, while his PA smile from the other side listening to their cute banter.

He threw the phone on the bed, and pulled her close to him. He made sit on his lap and nuzzled his face in her neck. He kissed on her nape and gave her love bites. He pushed her hair to one side and untied the strings of her blouse, making it loose. A shiver ran down her spine as he trailed wet kisses on her back.

She turned around, and placed her lips on hers unable to bear his silent torture. Her hands were caressing his toned chest, while he was caressing her back. He broke the kiss, when she ran out of the breath.

"Why did you change your dress?" He asked, panting.

"I felt uncomfortable. Between why did you ask?" Asked Maya.

"Thank you, bunny", he said, brushing her lips with his.

"Why?" She asked him with a confused look on her face.

"Because it's easy for me remove it", he said huskily in her ears, and kissed her earlobe.

"What? Ahh, you shameless idiot leave me. I've work to do", she said, trying to free herself from his hold.

"And I have more important work than yours", saying that, he again took her lips into a passionate kiss.

With that, both of them got drowned in the world of passion. He made love to her once again, taking her to the heights of pleasure, and making her feel bliss and complete once again.

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

Maya was glaring at Avi while changing her dress. While he was smiling at her sheepishly.

"Don't you dare try to touch me again", she said, covering the treasures given by her hubby dear.

"You are saying as if you don't love them", he said, back hugging her and caressing her stomach.

"Yes, I love them, that doesn't mean you give me these many", she said, pouting.

"Arey, people should know na, how much I love my wife", he said, giving her a new one on her collar bone.

She glared at him, and kicked him on his stomach with her elbow, making him wince.

"Ouch! What was that for?" He asked, clutching his stomach.

"For these", she said pointing at the hickeys.

"Then, even I should give you some punishment, right", he asked, nuzzling his face in her neck.

"For what?" She asked, stammering, feeling his hot breathes on her neck.

"For all those marks on my back", said Avi.

"What?" She yelled.

"Yeah! Don't you think you should get some punishment? Hmm", asked Avi, pulling her close to him.

"No", she said, moving back.

"Yes", he said, moving front.

"No."

"Yes."

Soon, Maya hit the wall. He put his hands on both sides of her and pulled her close to him making her bang on his chest. She raised her head and looked into eyes. He caressed her cheeks and looked into eyes. Both of them, were lost in their moment when someone started banging the door.

Avi wore his shirt and moved to open the door. He unlocked the door, and saw Arjun standing at the doorstep with a smirk on his lips.

"What took you this long to open the door?" He asked, coming inside.

"Do you really want to know?" Avi asked, folding his sleeves.

"No need", said Arjun.

"Good, now tell me, why did you come here?" Asked Avi.

"If you both grace us with your presence, then we will have our breakfast. Everyone is waiting for you both", said Arjun.

"You guys start, we will join you guys in a few minutes", said Avi.

"Okay, but make it fast, haa. And please clean those lipstick marks on your neck and face. I don't need proofs that you worked hard to make me a Mama", saying that, he ran out of the room.

Avi stood in front of the vanity and saw lipstick marks on his neck and face. He cleaned them with the wipes and set his hair. He saw moved inside the walk-in closet, and saw her braiding her waist length hair.

"Why don't you leave them open?" Avi asked, grabbing his coat.

"I would have left them open, but I've oiled them. So I'll feel irritated if I leave them open", said Maya.

Avi nodded his head and soon both of them moved down.

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

After having a hearty breakfast everyone left to their respective works. While Avi stayed back as he was working from the home. Maya moved to the kitchen to help Aashi after lots of pleadings, and making cute faces. So, Avi sat in the living room doing his work, making Maya sigh at his stubbornness.

He was going to the kitchen for every 45 minutes to check on Aashi and Maya, making Maya groan.

Maya just put the cookies plate in the oven, when a juice glass appeared in front of her, making her groan and irritated, all thanks to her mood swings.

"You! Can't you sit back and do your work? Just 1 hour back, I drank that yucky milk, and you cheated me saying that it's badam milk, when you added turmeric powder in the milk. You are not even allowing me to eat chocolates. God knows, how my chocolates are feeling bad as I'm eating them for the past one week?" Maya said, sniffing.

Aashi looked at her weirdly listening to the last line, while Avi was controlling his laugh looking at her antics.

"Don't worry chocolates I'll definitely eat you today. I thought to eat them by sneaking when my hubby go to office. But what can I do, he is sticking to me like fevicol?" Maya thought in her mind, but loud enough that Aashi and Avi heard her.

Avi looked at her by narrowing his eyes, and gestured her to drink the juice. She sighed and drank the juice in one go, as he won't compromise.

"Good girl", saying that, he moved out of the kitchen.

After an hour...

Maya and Aashi along with the cooks were cooking lunch, as everyone told that they would come home.

Maya was cutting vegetables, when she felt two hands encircling her waist.

"What's the menu for the lunch?" Asked Avi.

"Vegetable pulao, phool makhana kurma, raita, plain rice, bhendi fry, tomato chutney and rasam", said Aashi.

"And for dessert my boyfriend (Aashi) is making yummy yummy Rasmalai", Maya said, licking her lips.

"Looks like a feast", said Avi,

dreaming about his food.

"I just hope our baby doesn't turn out to be a foodie like you", said Maya, looking at him.

"And may I know why?", asked Avi.

"If he turns out be a foodie, then I've to lots of food, and I'll look like a baby elephant then", Maya said, making a crying face.

Aashi and Avi chuckled, listening to her, while she pouted.

"You are so cute boyfriend", Aashi said, pulling her cheeks.

Maya puffed her cheeks and got busy in her work.

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

Everyone are sitting in the living room after having their lunch, discussing about the wedding of Sravya and Surya.

Maya and Sravya were sitting near the baby cradle of Darsh who was sleeping peacefully. Veeru, Surya, Suhaas, Pranav, Avinav, Arjun and Yash were in the study room, discussing about something.

Vansh and Varsha were roaming around the cradle to play with Darsh, if he woke up. Arpita, Aashi, Taara and Diya were sitting near the stairs and gossiping.

Ladies were discussing about the things, that need to be bought for the wedding. While men were discussing about the security arrangement.

Everyone were engrossed in their talks, when they a security guard came inside, and informed them that Sahana and her parents have come. Everyone mentally face palmed, listening to that.

"Arpita take Vansh, Varsha and also Darsh to my room. I don't want their bad eyes fall on them. Anju you go along with Arpita", said Gayatri.

Arpita picked up Darsh in her arms, while the twins followed her. Anju asked a worker to take the cradle away and moved from there.

(I hope you guys remembered this lizard, who was trying to hit on our Avi. Okay, let me remind you she is Vani's friend's daughter, who tried her luck to become Avi's wife. Reference: chapter 15,16.)

Sahana and her parents came inside, and royally sat on the sofas, as if they own the house. Vani and Shekar greeted them, of course with a fake smile. While the three of them, were looking around the mansion with greed in their eyes.

"How are you pinky?" Asked Vani.

(Pinky and Prasad are Sahana's parents. You no need to remember them, they are just unimportant characters of the book.)

"We are doing good. Did you change the interiors of the mansion?", She asked, looking around.

"Yeah. Did you guys have your lunch?" Asked Vani.

"Yeah! Today your annayya didn't even leave a single morsel, as our Sahana baby cooked after a long time. You know right, how much busy she is?" Pinky said, and started, flaunting about her daughter.

While Sahana smiled shyly, making everyone roll their eyes at their drama.

"By the way, we have totally forgot about the purpose of our visit. Umm, Vani we want to ask you something", said Pinky.

"What is that?" Vani asked.

"You know right, Sahana always wished to marry Avi and become your DIL. But our bad luck, it didn't happen", saying that, she budged her husband to speak.

While everyone felt fishy, and thought something is cooking in that brain.

"Do you have any idea about what she gonna ask attayya?" Maya whispered in Sravya's ears.

"Nope", she said, raising her shoulders.

"We came here to ask Sravya's hand for our son. I know, we, no where match your standards, and we are not millionaire's like you people. But my son for the first time asked me something. He said that he likes Sravya and wants to marry her", said Pinky.

Sravya started to cough badly listening to her while Taara was glaring at the three, and kicking them mentally with her boxing gloves. If looks could kill people, then three of them would have died by now.

"Jhansi garu, ( garu is a word in telugu which is used to show respect in addressing someone) I'm asking you directly, will you give your daughter's hand for us and make her the daughter-in-law of our house? We will treat her as the queen", said Pinky.

"Bad luck aunty, but my sister is already the queen of someone who loves her immensely", said Avi, climbing down the stairs.

All boys came down after him. Avi sat beside Maya, while Surya sat beside Sravya in the four seater sofa. Veeru and Arjun sat on the bean bags. Pranav and Suhaas sat with the girls.

"What are you saying, Avi?" Asked Pinky.

"He is telling that, Sravya loves someone, and that boy also loves our Sravya immensely. We planning to get them married, and we all are discussing about their wedding only", said Arjun.

"Oh! Who is that lucky boy, Sravya?" Asked Pinky.

"I'm that lucky guy, aunty", he said, sitting beside Sravya, and pulled her close to him by placing his hand on her shoulder.

"It's just my son's bad luck. Don't know, how is he going to take this news?" said Pinky, faking her tears.

"Don't worry Amma, he will cope with it. We all are there, right?" said Sahana, consoling her mother.

(I must say, they are really good at doing drama.)

"My brother truly loves you Sravya, just like how I loves my baby. He even planned so many things about your future", Sahana said, trying her luck, and looking at Avi and Sravya.

Maya hugged Avi and snuggled more into him. She raised her head and pecked his lips, and glared at Sahana who was eyeing her hubby.

"You are saying that, your brother loves our Sravya, but me and Arpita saw him with another girl in a café", said Yash.

"She might be his colleague or his friend", said Pinky, trying to cover up.

"Sorry aunt, I don't know that, now a days they are making their colleague's sit on their laps and kissing", said Yash, making an innocent face.

Listening to him Pinky, Prasad and Sahana looked down embarrassed and started to squirm in their seats. They immediately left, making an excuse.

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

"Thank God, that chipku has left. She is literally eye raping my hubby", said Maya. "And you, didn't you get any place to sit? How dare you sit in front of her?" She said, pointing her finger at him.

"But I sat beside you", Avi raised his point.

"Whatever, you sat opposite to her. That's what matters to me", said Maya.

"But."

"I know, you got bored of me that's why you sat opposite to her. Baby see your nanna already saw a pinni for you", she said, caressing her stomach.

Avi sighed, and picked her up in his arms and started to move towards his room. She was swaying her legs and hitting him on his chest.

"You stupid, where are you taking me? Put me down, see baby how your nanna is kidnapping us" said Maya.

"Stop dancing and zip your mouth, or else I'll kiss you infront of everyone", said Avi.

Maya put finger on her lips and pouted, turning her face to the other side, encircling her arms around his neck.

"Good girl", said Avi.

Everyone chuckled, looking at them.
