Third Person POV

Virat returned home from the evening, there was a complete silence in the house which is completely rare. He heard Vihaan's voice and headed towards his room. The little boy looked at him as if he felt his presence around. He chuckled seeing him and began to crawl. Virat got on his knees and opened up his arms.

Vihaan reached him and Virat picked him up in his arms. The little began to murmur in his babish language as he was excited to find his father around him.

After a while he began to cry and Virat was trying to figure out the reason. He checked his diaper which needed to be changed. Virat smiled at him and said "diaper change kar dete hai abhi papa"

He placed him on the mattress and changed his diaper. Ahana was standing at the entrance and was totally surprised as she had never seen this side of her husband.

"Mujhe nahi pata tha.. Tumhe diaper change karna bhi aata hai" Ahana said while moving closer to father and son.

Virat glared at her and smiled "obviously aata hai.. Tumhare laadle dever ne nahi bataya tumhe"

Ahana eyed him and asked "Aarav kyun batayega mujhe.."

Virat said "sirf kuch mahino ka tha jab maa guzar gayi.. Maine hi uska khayal rakha hai Dad toh business ke kaam se bahar hi rehte they"

"I know that.. Mera pati bhale hi bahar se sakt ho andar se ek dum naram hai nariyal ki tarah" she said, pulling his cheeks.

Virat glared at her.. "Meri itni tareef?" he asked suspiciously.

Ahana sighed "God Vee.. tumhari tareef karo toh dikkat na karo toh dikkat." she commented.

Virat smiled at her.. "Nahi.. aadat nahi hai"

Ahana laughed and said "Don't even keep expectations high"

Virat nodded and asked "ghar ka bada shaitaan kaha hai? Choti shaitaan bhi nazar nahi aa rahi hai"

"Hello.. He is not shaitaan" Ahana warned him.

"Shaitaan hi hai.. Thank god shaadi ho gayi uski ab mere aur tumhare beech kabab mein haddi toh nahi banega kamse kam" Virat said with a sigh of relief and pulled her closer.

He locked her in his arms and she glared at him.. "Tumpe hi gaya hai.. Tumhe bhi romance karna ka bahana chahiye"

Virat smiled "mera bhai hai mujhpe toh jayega hi.."

Vihaan began to cry as if he didn't like his father getting closer to his mother. Ahana laughed.. "Ab ye hamare beech kabab mein haddi banega.. Aarav ka chamcha" Virat said in an annoyed tone.

"Hello.. Har baar Aarav ko beech mein mat laaya karo tum!" Ahana argued with him.

"Wo hai hamare beech mein.." Virat said and Ahana continued arguing him over the matter.

ArMan's Room

Manvi was checking the mails which she missed from last month. She sighed deeply "damm.. Maine client ka itna important email miss kar diya no wonder they are upset"

Aarav wasn't home. It was almost 7pm, she checked his laptop. She logged in and asked for a password but didn't know. I just typed in "Ahana" and it opened. A smile appeared on her face. She checked for the previous presentation but couldn't find it.

She was surprised just to find her and Khushi's picture which he had collected from Khushi's social media account when they were separated. I sighed "Arghh.. Sirf meri aur khushi ke pictures hai isme ek bhi office work ke file nahi hai"

An email popped out and she opened it out of curiosity. It was from Khushi's school sending reminders about to visit the principal as Khushi has been suspended from school for a month.

She checked and there were about 4-5 emails from her school, Aarav didn't bother to inform her about this. "School se suspend kiya gaya hai.. Isliye wo Aarav ke saath Di ke ghar gayi. Dono mujhse jhooth bol rahe they" she was angered by this.

She read another message for the client which pissed her off more. She sighed deeply.. "Aarav.. You are dead"

She turned off the laptop and moved downstairs. She saw Vihana sitting on the couch and having a random conversation.

Ahana looked at her and asked "kya hua?"

"Bhabhi.. Aarav aur khushi aaye kya?" Manvi questioned

"Aa jayenge itne dino baad baap beti ko time mila hai toh maze kar rahe ho" Virat said

"Wahi na.. Pichli baar tumne aarav ko busy kar diya and khushi upset ho gayi thi plan cancel hone pe and then honeymoon.. Tension na lo dono aa jayenge wapas" Ahana said with a smile on her face.

Manvi wasn't pleased to hear her. Ahana noticed her expressions and asked "kya hua manvi?"

"Kya kisi din khushi ghar chot lagwake aayi thi?" Manvi asked, looking at her keenly.

Ahana remembered "haa aayi thi.. Aur bataya bhi tha usne ki khelte hue lag gyi"

Manvi sighed...

"Baat kya hai.." Virat asked, noticing her anger.

"Wo..." Manvi was about to reveal when she heard a loud sound of Aarav and Khushi.

Khushi's POV

I and Aarav were at the shopping mall. We went to watch the movie first, Aarav bought two popcorn sets along with a drink. I sighed "Dadda..it's too much"

"Are toh hum bhi do hai.. Bahut bhook bhi lagi hai" he said pointing towards his tummy.

I giggled at his childish behavior. We went inside the theatre and grabbed our place. Beside me, there was a man sitting and he was staring at me. I felt a bit uncomfortable as he had been hitting me.

Aarav noticed this, he said "Khushi.. Ye seat na bahut hi uncomfortable hai.. Chalo peeche jaake baithe hai"

A smile appeared on my face, he grabbed my hand and took me behind. We settled down and enjoyed the movie. He surely knows when to behave maturely and when to behave childish with me.

The movie ended in 2 hours and we exited the hall. Aarav looked at me and asked "chalo shopping karne"

'Dadda ghar?" I said as it was almost 1pm.

"Chale jayenge.. Chalo let's go shopping" he grabbed my hand and pulled me to the store. He checked his wallet which only had a few thousands left.

"Dadda.. Abhi toh aap itna kuch laaye ho.. Aur nahi chahiye mujhe kuch" I said.

"Par mujhe toh tumhe dilana hai na.. You must follow the latest trend" Aarav said ignoring the fact he is jobless. He forcefully took me to the shop and I bought a few things so that he doesn't feel insulted.

He then took me to his favourite game section and we had a lot of fun. I asked "dadda aapko ghar nahi jaana kya?"

"Jaana hai.. Lekin bhai ke ghar aane ke baad" He said and I was confused.

"Kyun?" I asked.

"Dekho.. Subah bhabhi bahut gussa hui thi.. Aur sham ko jo pehle ghar pahuchga uski shamat aayegi isliye.. Hum baad mein jayenge" he said which made me laugh..

"Dadda.. Aap na.. Ho sakta hai badi maa aapko phir bhi daante" I replied.

"Wo toh daantne hi waali hai" he murmured as he remembered today's job interview.

I shrugged his shoulders and we continued enjoying our time. Around 5pm, we left the shopping mall. I was carrying the shopping bags, I asked him "Dadda ye hum bike pe kaha rakhenge?"

"Don't worry.. I have a solution for everything" Aarav said with a smile. He held the bags and haun them on each side of the handle of the bike.

He sat on it and I jumped behind him. We headed towards the house but he stopped in the middle of my favourite street food stall. I jumped in excitement "yeshh.. Paav bhaji and gol gappee"

I jumped off the bike and went to the stall. I ordered for us and grabbed the bench. I remembered our first meeting.

"Dadda aapko yaad hai ek saal pehle hum yahi mile they" I said with a smile.

He sat down opposite me and nodded "haa yaad hai.. Tumne mera wallet lautaya tha tab toh socha nahi tha tum meri beti ban jaogi"

"Wahi na dadda.. Ye moment maine itne saalo se miss kiya tha.. Thank you aaj aapne pura din mujhe diya and mere doston ko wrong prove kiya" I said with moist eyes.

He glanced at me and asked "Doston ko wrong prove maltab?"

I sighed deeply as in ectiment I bluntered out something which I shouldn't have said.

"Khushi sab thik hai na? School mein mere aur Manvi ki wajah se tumhe koi pareshan toh nahi karta" he questioned.

I politely denied "nahi dadda.. Aap toh sab teachers ki crush hai" I diverted him away.

Aarav laughed "ye baat apni mumma ko mat keh dena.. Warna phirse shaq ki talwar leke khadi ho jayegi" he commented and I smiled fakely.

The food arrived and we ate it. He looked at the clock in his hand and said "chalo ghar chalte hai sab pareshan ho jayenge"

I nodded and we headed back towards the house. He was cracking his silly jokes which always made me laugh. We reached home in half an hour, he parked the bike and we walked inside the house with a smile on our faces unaware of the upcoming storm.

I and Aarav stopped in the hall when Manvi stared at us. Aarav smiled.. "Sorry.. Aaj maine apni beti ko tumse zyada importance di"

"Dadda.. Mumma is not jealous.. Haina?" I asked, looking at her but she was silent. She approached us and passed an angry gaze.

She did something which left all of us in a state of shock.
