For the entire day they both kept watching the video on loop.

They didnt had lunch nor a drop of water.

SanDhir were happy and satisfied watching Sara happy.

Day turned into evening.

Sanyukta was making a list of all the essential items needed in the house.

She was planning to go to supermarket.

"Hmm...done" "Aagar kuch yaad nahi toh waha jake yaad aajayega" She said

and folded the piece of paper and kept inside her purse.

Randhir was watching her from distance.
He was amused seeing the change in Sanyukta.
She has turned into a house wife.
He was happy but at the same time sad too.
He never wanted Sanyukta to be like this.
He knew she loves her work.
This is not the first time she was working in kitchen or making a list of essentials.
She has been doing it since when they got married.
But this time...she was different.
She is changed.

Sanyukta found Randhir looking at her.

"You are going somewhere?" He asked

"Yes...to supermarket" She said

"Can I accompany you?" He asked

"Why?" "No problem Randhir...I can manage" She said

"I want to join you...." He spoke

"Okay..." She nodded.

They reached hypercity.

Sanyukta started picking up the essential things and was placed it in trolley.

She checked the list several times to ensure if something is missing.

Randhir was pushing the trolley and stealing glances of her.
They both stopped at the sweets and chocolates section.

*flashback*

"Mummma...I want nutella..." Sara said

"What?" "No...Sara" "Not this time...its not good for health" Sanyukta said

"Dad..." Sara looked at Randhir

Randhir winked at Sara and picked the jar of nutella.

He hide the can in between the groceries so Sanyukta couldnt see it.

Sara laughed but immediately stopped because Sanyukta caught her laughing.

Sanyukta looked at Randhir.

Randhir smiled looking at her.

"Hogaya?" He asked her

"Ha..." Sanyukta said.

They were waiting at billing counter. Randhir had picked Sara in his arms. Sanyukta was cross checking the items with the list.

"Ek min....yeh nutella ka jar kisne dala isme?" She asked Sara and Randhir

"Humne nahi dala...gir gaya hoga" Randhir said in his and Sara's defense

"Aacha?" "Galti se..." "Randhir this is not fair..." "You know its not good" Sanyukta said

"Leave it na Sanyukta...Sara ka maan tha...le lo" He said

"Tum bigad rahe ho isse" Sanyukta said

"Koi baat nahi..." "Sara's wish is my command" Randhir said Sanyukta had no other option.

She smiled looking at the father - daughter duo.

"Isse bhi add kar do" Sanyukta told the person standing at bill counter

"Yaaayyyyy...." Sara clapped her hands in joy

*flashback ends*

Sanyukta picked a 500gm jar of nutella and placed it inside the trolley.

"Sara loves it..." She mumbled

Randhir held her hand and consoled her.

Soon they were waiting at billing counter. There was a long queue there.

Sanyukta checked all the items once again.
Suddenly she remembered she has forgotten something.

"Randhir...I'll be just back" She said

"Where are you going?" He said

"Kuch bhul gayi hu...wahi lane ja rahi hu" She said

"Tell me...main lake deta hu" Randhir said

'"No Randhir....I will manage" "You wait here" She said

"Aare tell me na kya baki reh gaya hai...I'll get it" Randhir said

"Randhir you can't bring that" "Tumhe nahi samaj aayega" She said

"Aaisa kya lana hai jo muje samaj nahi aayega" Randhir said Sanyukta facepalmed herself.

She moved close to him and murmurred in his ears.

"I am going to bring my sanitary napkins..." "Can I go now?" She said

"Ohh...Okay...GO" Randhir replied hesitatedly.

Sanyukta came back within few minutes.

"Take this..." Randhir handed card to Sanyukta.

Sanyukta checked the bill and the person at the counter swiped the card.

"Mam pin number please..." The person handed her the machine.

She looked at Randhir but he was busy on call.

"Mam..." the guy requested her again.

"1226" she pressed the green button.

How cannot a wife know husband's credit card number? :D

"Are we done?" Randhir came back to her.

"Yes..." Sanyukta replied

"Your card..." Sanyukta gave back card to him Randhir happily took it back from him. It made him happy thinking she still remembers his credit card pin number.

The drive was silent. It had started raining lightly. The atmosphere was lovely and beautiful.

"Bhutta khaogi" He asked her.
She looked at him.

"Corn..." He said She nodded in YES.

He stopped the car at the roadside.
It had started raining now.
Randhir came back in the car.
He got wet.

"Yeh lo..." He handed her the corn.
She started eating.

*flashback*

Sanyukta and Randhir were a month old married couple.

"Randhir...stop the car" Sanyukta said

"Aare but why?" Randhir said

"Muje bhutta khana hai" Sanyukta pointed at the small shop situated at the road side.

"Aabhi...itni barish main" He said

"Haan...barish main bhutta khane ka maza kuch aur hi hai" She said

"Okay..." he said

"Wow...Thank you" Sanyukta grabbed the corn from his hands.
She started eating while Randhir started sneezing.

"Offo...you got wet and now sneezing..." She said

"It's okay..." He sneezed again

"oh no...I am sorry Randhir" "I forgot ki tumhe sardi lag jati hai turant..." She said

"Aare its fine..." "You wanted to have it..." "Its okay..." He sneezed again.

She wiped his face with her dupata.

"Lets go home...I'll prepare kadha for you" "Jaldi thik hojaoge" She said

*flashback end*

Randhir sneezed.

"Shit...tum barish main bheeg gaye" Sanyukta said

"I am fine..." He said

"Thank you..." She said.

He looked at her and sneezed again.

"Ghar jake tumhare liye kadha banadungi" She said.

Before he could reply anything he sneezed again.

"uff..." She quickly pressed his forehead and wiped his face with her dupata.

"Bhutta khana zaruri tha kya?" "Aur uske liye bheegna...?" She scolded him.

He was staring at her.
She rolled her eyes.
Their eyes met for a perfect eyelock.
