A month later:

The morning eased it's light perfectly through our room's window. The new house was airy and warmly welcomed natural light.  But I was awake, from 3 A.M. in the morning, doing my studies reading thicker books than what I usually studied for preparing for medical entrances and rambled through my notes.

This house had a great advantage, each floor had a three bedroom individual flat-type architecture that gave us more privacy and also personally work in the study room while Dev got his own bedroom.

Ofcourse that's just filled with toys, baby stuff and more toys!

My two handsome men were deeply occupied in sleep, Dev in his cradle and my husband, well, ofcourse on our bed! Dreamily, I started clearing my study table and pack my bag for today's class.

It's certainly an important day, because it is Raj Ji's first day at college.

Ironically, my first exam is going to start in a week.

I slowly tip-toed to our room and gently tried to wake my husband up.

"Ji?"

"Hmm?"

"Ji??"

"Hmm??"

"Please wake up, we've college to attend!"

"5 more minutes, Pavi!"

"What?"

He just did something that I could not believe with my own eyes.

He pulled the bedsheet above his head, rolled over and just started slipping into sleep again!

"Rajeev Shukla, you are a father now!
Stop behaving like a baby and wake up or else I have to throw a bucket of water over your head!"

I had said the magic words!

"What did you just say?, he asked me while he slowly kicked the bedsheet to sit up. Even after all this time, the shirtless form of him still tempted me!

I giggled and tried to walk away, but his strong hands just yanked me towards him and both of us fell on the bed. Well, technically, him on bed and me on him!

"Ji!", I exclaimed!

"What?", he snuggled close to me and kissed my neck and cheek.

"You'll wake him up, baby!", I whispered. 

"Ok then, let me kiss you silently!", he said and started trailing pecks from my ear to the neck.

God, he knows how to seduce me!

Coming back to my senses, I pushed him away and jumped out of bed!

"What are you doing?", I asked.

"You, out! NOW!"

"Okay okay!", he gave in and got up from the bed.

After a heavy breakfast prepared by Ma ji, we took blessings from Ma and Babaji. They were so happy to see us grow and go together. We then bid farewell to our family. It was difficult for us to say bye to our little creation. But somehow we made ourselves to the garage, where Raj Ji's bike was parked.

I did grow fond of our bike rides. But today, Raj ji was super excited, as he did look sharp in the clothes I chose for him and he hadn't aged a bit with all the exercises he does.

He wore the college bag that Rekha and me had gifted him I knew that all the single ladies would want to swoon my man! I felt jealous as I hugged him closer and snaked my arms tightly around his waist!

"Hey, everything okay?", He asked me.

"Yeah, just marking my territory!"

"What?", he chuckled.

"You belong only to me, no matter which fancy college you go to!"

Raj ji laughed.

"Are you feeling jealous?"

"Ofcourse not!", I coughed through the lie.

"Baby, there will be some hot people!"

Where is he going with this?

"But-"

"Glad to know that there's a but!", I interrupted him.

He laughed once again as his long hair just let the breeze do the work of making him sexier than ever.

"I love you, on every level. My body, my emotions, my thoughts, my mind, my consciousness and my soul belongs only to you. You don't have to worry or feel jealous about anything, okay?"

"So you mean to say that I am not hot and still you'd give everything to me, like charity?"

"Oh my God, Pavi, I really didn't take you to be the jealous kind!".

He was enjoying every bit of this conversation and I knew it.

I slowly felt him taking a turn, even before we reached my college.

"What are you doing?"

He didn't speak. He took me to the nearest park and stopped the bike under a shady tree. He signalled me to get down from the bike and I reluctantly did it.

Looking me in the eye, he said,
"What do you want to hear, that you are the hottest chick of my life? I thought you already knew that. You make it so difficult for me to stay away from your physical presence, do you know that?

You are mine, and I am yours. It's not charity, it's my choice. Even in my sweat pants, this morning, you looked, God, irresistible! But Dev was sleeping right next to us and I didn't want to scar him for life!"

I chuckled.

"I love you and you only Pavi. There's no one else and there will be no one."

"Not even those hot chicks?", I pouted.

"No, they are not my type, only you are!"

With that he pulled me for a kiss, which was soft but firm and short.

"Okay now?", he asked me breathlessly.

I nodded and sort of blushed. For him, this was a proper entertainment!

He smiled. I fixed his hair and caressed his cheek. My touch did make a difference in him.

Now I felt super happy and hopped back on the bike.

"Ready to go?"

"Yes!"

"Okay!"

"Ji?"

"You'll do great, okay?"

"Thanks baby, you too will!"

"Aww, I feel like two college people actually sneaking around and dating, you know!"

"Probably that's what this new phase of life wants us to experience!"

I laughed and I noticed that we had reached my college. I got down and bid Raj ji a sweet goodbye.

My classmate and friend, Shruthi was waiting for me near the college gate.

She said, "Is that hot guy seriously your husband? God you are so lucky!"

I laughed at her but internally, did a fist pump of success.

God, I actually felt jealous this morning, didn't I?
