when the .............doorbell rings. Pragya jumped back and Abhi groaned in frustration. She giggled and rushed towards the room as he opened the door. There standing a girl in pencil skirt and white shirt with a plastered smile. He looks at her confused.

Girl - Mr. Mehra...??

He frowned but nodded.

Girl - Hello Sir, I am from Chariot Hotel.(giving him a something) Mr. Luthra send me here to deliver this to you personally.

He widen his eyes listening to this and immediately came outside shutting the door.

Abhi (in slow voice)- Thank you so much for this. But please don't come here. We can discuss all this on-call okay. (She nodded as he continued) Once again Thank you.

She smiles in response and left from there. He entered into their apartment and hide it in his luggage and sits on bed picking Emma in his hold.

Yes he brings her here too.

Pragya (coming from washroom)- Who was there..???

Abhi (smile nervously)- Aah..a.. No one.(she looked at him in frown) I mean the person knock on the wrong door by mistake.

She nodded with a 'Oh' and headed towards the kitchen which they arranged properly yesterday only.

She entered into the kitchen and wide her eyes horrified. All things were messed up, vegetables on the floor, oil and floor on the counter.

Pragya (shouted on the top of her voice)- Abhhiiiiiiii........!!!!

He jumped on his position and rushed towards her. She gave him a glare and he looks at her with a sheepish smile.

Pragya (pointing the mess, little annoyed) - What on earth were you doing in my kitchen...??? Oh no, now I have to clean it too.

Don't know why she felt irritated by it. Maybe because she still on her days or maybe because she is too hungry right now or maybe she noticed the girl and him locking the door from outside. But her words made the effect to disappear Abhi's sheepish smile.

Abhi (in a serious tone)- I tried preparing dinner for us. Thought you will be tired and hungry after work. Don't worry I will clean your kitchen.

"Shit. What did you do Pragya..??" sudden guilt appeared in her eyes as she noticed the hurt on his face. She mentioned her kitchen, Just because her company gave her accommodation, doesn't mean she owns it. It is their home for a year.

Pragya - I..I am so....

Abhi (manage a small smile)- It's okay Pragya . Dinner is ready. If you want you can eat, I'll just come.

He rushed back into the room and tears tripped down from her eyes realizing she hurt him for the first time. She looked towards the kitchen again and noticed the bowl arranged on the side counter. She burst out in tears looking at his efforts he made for her. She ran towards their room but found it empty. Then she listened water flowing inside the washroom and sat on the bed still tearing. She picked Emma in her lap and hugged her tightly.

Pragya (sobbing)- Look, what I did Emma..!! I hurt him..!! Hurt my Abhi...!!! How can I do this..?? (hiccup) I am bad, very bad,(hiccup) very very bad wife.(hiccup) It's not been even a week and I know,(hiccup)I made him regret his decision to come here with me.

As soon as the door of washroom opened, Pragya rushed and hugged him tightly.

Pragya (sobbing)- I..I am sorry Abhi...!! I am really really sorry. Please don't think of leaving me.(he frowned and tried to part her from him but she clutched him more tightly) No, please...I am sorry Abhi. I will not repeat anything like that. Please don't leave me.

Abhi made her apart and cup her face into his palms wiping her tears with his thumbs.

Abhi - Are you mad..?? Why will I leave you..???(wipe her tears which were again flowing) And why are you crying this badly..??

Pragya (controlling her sob)- I..I hurt you there. I (wiping her nose with the back of her hand) But that was not my fault. You lied to me.(He look confused and she pouted with anger) I saw you talking to that girl by locking me here.

He widen his eyes but quickly cover his reaction by diverting the topic.

Abhi (grabbing her from waist, raising his brow)- So, you were jealous...!!!

He expected her to say no, she was not. But how can he forgot that she is Pragya...!! 

Pragya - Of course, I am jealous..!! You are mine and no one else. (pointing her finger at him) So dare you to think of cheating on me or leaving me...!! I will come behind you and chop that stupid girl and drag you back to me...!! Remember that...!!!

He widened his eyes and she raised her neck in attitude. He looked at her in astonishment that how easily she can convey her feelings. How easily she claimed him. But why can't he able to tell her about his feelings.He already told her that he loves her but how will she react by knowing his feelings he hide from her from years. Will she not blame him for those years which they could spend together if he told her what he feels for her. He is still confused whether he should tell her or let it be like this. She is happy with him right.. Doesn't she..?? So why should he do something to make her upset on the past things. He came in his sense when she shook him from shoulders.

Pragya - Abhi...!! Are you thinking about that girl..?? Are you thinking about leaving me..??

Abhi (took her in his embrace and kiss her on forehead)- No, I am not going to leave you. Not now, Not ever, not even after my death...!!

She placed her palm on his mouth immediately shaking her head in no.

Pragya (trying to smile)- That's too cheesy....!!!

Abhi laughed and hugged her again.

Abhi (chuckling)- I am learning from you..!!

Pragya (giggle and ask) - So, Did you forgive me...??

Abhi - For what...???

Pragya (bending her head) - For what I told you outside...!!

Abhi looked at her and bite his cheek to hide his snicker.

Abhi - No...!!!!

Pragya (look up with jerk)- No...????

Abhi (making a serious face)- No...!!

She pout and bend her head again. Her eyes again start becoming moist.

Abhi (make her look at him)- But you can make it up to me. Maybe I will forgive you..!!

Her eyes perked up listening to him as she looked expectantly.

Pragya - I will do anything...!!

Abhi (raising his brows)- Anything..???

Pragya (confidently)- Anything..!!!!

Abhi (crossing his arms across his chest)- Okay then..!! Kiss me..!!

Pragya (bluntly)- That's it..!! I thought you will ask more, This kiss toh you will be getting anyway.

Abhi widen his eyes listening to her. She starts leaning towards him as he look shocked. She placed her palm on his chest and took it to his neck seductively. He shivered and stepped back little not expecting this reaction.

Pragya (huskily)- Do you remember my steamy dreams about you, Hubby ..??

Abhi gulped his saliva as her hot breath touched his earlobe.

She came near his lips and stopped her eyes on them. He closed his eyes lost as her hands doing torture on his chest rubbing it seductively. She looked at him and bite her lower lips to stop her giggle seeing him, closed eyes. She placed her soft petals at the corner of his lips tightly, giving him a lingering kiss there and step back. He opened his eyes and look at her shocked as she gave him a teasing smile.

Pragya (biting her cheeks)- I am hungry hubby, Come let's have our dinner...!!!

She sauntered outside the room as he stood numbly there for a minute to realize what happened here. His, not so innocent wife, teased him and left just like that. No....Not going to happen.

Abhi slid his hand across his hair and rushed behind her. He saw her in the kitchen and dragged her to his chest. Pragya jerked and looked at him with wide innocent eyes.

Abhi (panting, huskily)- Not happening Wifey. Now you made me really hungry, hungry for you.

She widened her eyes as he pressed his lips without warning pouring his whole love, desperation, hunger, and devotion for her. He grabbed her waist more tightly pressing her front to his chest. Her hands make their way into his hair as she closed her eyes feeling the pleasure of the moment. A moan escape from her lips in form of his name as her grip tighten around his hair when he bite on her bottom lips. Abhi smiled in between the kiss as he listened his name in that voice. Both parted breathing heavily as he pressed his forehead to hers. Their eyes were closed as they were feeing the essence of this awaiting moment. This is the first kiss of them being a husband and wife, The wedding kiss was just a peck.Okay..not small peck but a little long. But that we can't call a proper kiss. Can we..??? 😜

Abhi (still closed eyes huskily)- Never tease me, or you will get the punishment like this.

Pragya - I love this punishment, Mr. Mehra.

He opened his eyes immediately as this time Pragya captured his lips taking him by surprise.

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

Both were laying on the bed in each other's embrace after dinner as Pragya told him all the happening of her office.

Abhi (chuckling)- They are weird.

Pragya (giggling) - K told me the same words. You know she is very sweet but that angry bird...Huh...He called me Mad...(sit up with wide eyes and gesture with her hands dramatically) You know...M A D.

Abhi (chuckle again, taking her back in his embrace)- Why...???

She narrated him what happened in the lift and what she told him. And after that, her warning to him ' How dare he to call her mad. Only one person can call her mad because she is mad for him. No one else' She narrated the exact words as Abhi laugh loudly.

Abhi - You asked your boss to say you sorry...?? (she nod and he laugh again) He said true, you are a mad girl.(She pout and he kiss on her forehead lovingly) But my mad girl.(She smiled and he chuckled) I can call you anything and you will not become angry with me. Right...???

Pragya (shaking her head with a bright smile)- Yes, Never...!!!

Abhi (still continuing)- If I hurt you by mistake, then...???

Pragya (smiling) - That will be by mistake naa..!! I know you will not hurt me knowingly.

Abhi - So, you will not leave me if I hurt you unknowingly..???

Pragya (frown as she looked up at him)- Why are you asking all this Abhi...?? I can never leave you. How can you even think of it? You are my lifeline Abhi.

Abhi (sadly) - Then why did you ask me to not leave you..??? Do you think I can leave you just by this little thing..?? Don't you have trust on my love..??

She bend her head ashamed.

Pragya - I....I thought you will regret the decision of coming with me here.

Abhi (making her look at him)- Pragya, I will never regret it throughout my whole life. I may not be able to express in words that how much I love you or maybe you think that how can I changed suddenly this much.But trust me on this... I love you Pragya, I really really do. So never have this thought that I am going to leave you because of just silly thing, because of an argument or because of any fight.

Pragya (interrupt him, ask with wide eyes)- You will fight with me..??

Abhi (chuckle and shook his head in disbelief)- Yess...!!!(she frown) Because I can't live without fighting with my Fuggy.

Pragya smiled in relief as she snuggled closer to him.

He made his hand clasp with her and took them near his lips kissing them. Pragya smiled with sleepy eyes mumbling good night to him.

He made her sleep comfortably and open his luggage and took out something. His eyes stop on the sleeping figure of her.

Abhi (to himself)- I have to do this. I have to do this for her..!!
