Days rolled on.

Sanyukta was slowing getting back to normal.

Randhir and Shekhawat family took great care of her.

She was feeling much better now.

Pradhyuman's death left a great impact on her but she tried to overcome it with Randhir to her support always.

She felt secure with him.

She doesnt feel alone anymore.

Things were back to normal.

One fine day

"Morning..." Sanyukta said rubbing her eyes.

"Morninggg" Randhir replied smiling on her cute antics

"You're getting ready for office. What's the time?" She asked

"Its 8:30..." He replied

"Why didn't you wake me up?" Its 8:30..." She got up from bed

"Chill...no worries...its fine" Randhir said

"You wait...I'll quickly go and bring your coffee..." She was about to go just then Renuka entered

"Coffee is here...."

She placed the tray on table

"I am sorry Maasa...I was sleeping for longer time..." Sanyukta said

"Its okay beta...its fine...it happens sometimes. You feel like sleeping for long time" Renuka said

"Its all Randhir's fault. He didn't wake me up today like he does everyday" She said while Randhir smiled at her statement

"Okay..Okay...let it be...I am here to inform you about your muh dikhayi ki rasam" "I have arranged your muh dikhayi ki rasam today in evening at 4." Renuka said

"Muh dikhayi ki rasam.What's that? What happen in that?" Sanyukta questioned

"Ladies from our society and community will come to bless you. Will give shagun to you" Renuka chirped happily

"Ohh Okay..." Sanyukta said

"But for today you'll have to wear our traditional rajasthani dress" "Its tradition and plus you are newly married woman so you have to get ready like that" "Sindoor...mangalsutra bangles jewellery..." Renuka added

"Maasa you'll help me that" Sanyukta asked

"Of course beta...I'll will help you" "Okay I have some work in kitchen you freshen up and both of you come down for breakfast" renuka said

Sanyukta quickly freshen up

She came out wearing pink and orange color salwaar kameez drying her wet hair with towel

Randhir was busy working in laptop but got distracted by her presence. She had just bath. She was glowing as usual.

Water droplets ere dripping from her hair to her cheeks and then to her neck.

Randhir observed that.

She was busy drying her hair with blower standing infront of mirror.

He saw her wearing her mangalsutra once she was done drying her hair.

She applied kajal into her eyes and put a small tiny bindi in between her brows.

Randhir was continously admiring her. That's what he do everyday. She gets ready and he admires her.

"You look beautiful" He mumbled this in his mind like everyday but could never say it to her.

Its like his regular routine now.

He mentally appreciates her everyday.

While on other side.

Sanyukta knows Randhir waits for her everyday and then they both go together for breakfast.

She knows he admires her everyday.

"You look beautiful"

How she expects him to say this to her but he never do so.

In fact she wants him to appreciate her.

Can't blame her this is what every girl wants to her from her husband and Sanyukta is not an exception.

"Shall we go..." She said

"Yes...are you ready?" He asked

"What do you think looking at me?" She smirked

He smiled and they got down together

They did breakfast together.

"So..see you everyone in evening" Randhir said as he was leaving for office

"Yes beta..." Renuka chirped

Randhir took his bag and looked at Sanyukta.

She understood what he is trying to say.

She followed him to the main door.

Its like their everyday routine.

She accompany him till his car to bid him goodbye.

They both like doing this.

They both reached the parking area.

Randhir opened the door and kept his bag inside the car.

She was standing right behind him.

"So...See you in evening" He said

"Yeah...have a good day" She wished him

"You too..." He replied

"Yeah..." She looked at him

There was 2 minute silence between them

He hugged her.

She hugged him back.

"Take care..." He said

"You too Randhir" She said

She broke the hug.

"Come soon...I'll be waiting" She smiled

"Yeah..."

He got inside the car and started the engine.

She wave her head

"Bye" She said

"Bye..."

And he turned the steering wheel of the car.

Sanyukta got inside the house and helped renuka in kitchen

She is under training of Renuka.

She is learning authentic traditional dishes from her.

They had dinner and Sanyukta took a small nap in the afternoon.

It was 3:30 in the afternoon.

"Ohh my god...my daughter is looking so pretty" Renuka chirped

Sanyukta had worn traditional rajasthani dress.

It was in combination of green and orange color.

"Maasa...this is indeed beautiful. I like this dress" Sanyukta said looking herself in mirror

"The dress in beautiful but you wearing it made it more beautiful" Renuka said

Renuka helped Sanyukta in getting ready.

She adjusted mang tika in between Sanyukta's parting.

She made her wearing Rajasthani jewellery.

Bangles, necklace, earrings.

Sanyukta filled her parting with pinch of vermillion.

"Sanyukta...wear this ankelets" Renuka handed her a box

Sanyukta wore them and she loved the sound they made.

"Omg...Maasa...this ankelets are so cute.I want to wear them everyday." She chirped

"Of course beta...they are yours" She said

Sanyukta was compelety ready

"Beta...wait a second...your ghungat"

Renuka pulled the dupatta from her head and covered her face

"Sorry beta...but just for today" "Its tradition Please" Renuka insisted

"Okay Maasa but I am not able to see anything..I'll fall down" Sanyukta said

"I am there to hold you don't worry" "Lets go down"

They got down and the function started

All the ladies from their socities and relations attended the function.

Ladies turn by turn were pulling up Sanyukta's ghungat and blessing her.

They were giving her gifts too which is called as shagun.

"Bahu toh ghani sundar hai aapki" One of the lady chirped

"Bilkul..." Renuka said

The function got over all the ladies left too.

Randhir came back home from office.

He went to his room and saw his wife and sisters giggling and chatting with each other.

"Hello Bhaisa..." Girls giggled

"Hello...sisters" He wished him back

He looked at Sanyukta who was still dressed in their traditional dress.

He loosen his tie and pull out his socks.

SanDhir were stealing glances.

"Lavanya...I think we should leave now" Sukanya said

"Yes...lets give them what they want..." Girls teased them

"My sisters are so smart" Randhir taunted them

"Yeah we are Bhaisa..." "Bye BhabhiSa...Bye Bhaisa...enjoy" Girls teased them and ran away.

Randhir opened his wardrobe to fetch his towel and clothes

"How was your day?" Sanyukta asked

"Good...and yours" Randhir asked

"Amazing...i had so much fun...the muh...muh..di..."

"Muh dikhayi" Randhir helped her out with the word

"Yes...muh dikhayi ceremony...it was wonderful experience...I loved it...all the ladies blessed me..." "It was fun" She shared her experience

"Good...I am glad to hear it" He said

He dashed inside washroom without saying a word.

Sanyukta was little disappointed.

He didn't noticed her.

She dressed up so well and didn't changed immediately after the function so that Randhir can see her.

He didn't appreciate her this time too.

"I am expecting too much" She thought

She changed herself and both of them came down for dinner.

Sanyukta was little upset.

Randhir noticed that.

Well the reason is not unknown to him.

They finished the dinner and came back to there room.

Randhir was working on laptop while Sanyukta was just siting idle.

She looked at Randhir who had his eyes glued to laptop screen like magnet.

She thought of sleeping.

she lay down on bed and covered herself with duvet.

She looked at Randhir one last time before sleeping.

Again being disappointed she slept.

Little did she knew what was keeping Randhir so busy at the moment.

He knew she was upset.

He knew she'll never let him know the reason behind her being upset.

He knew the reason well.

He thought of making her happy with some other way.

Randhir's way

He lay beside her.

She was in deep slumber by then.

He lightly pecked her forehead making sure her sleep doesn't get disturbed.

Again this is his everyday routine.

He waits for her too sleep so that he would peck her forehead and then sleep.

Soon he too slept.

Next morning.

Randhir was getting ready for office.

"Coffee..." Sanyukta brought him coffee.

Today he woke her up on time.

She wore light blue color salwaar with white kurti.

Her hair tied in loose bun.

Randhir like her open hair.

But he knew she will open her hair and she did so.

Standing in front of mirror she opened the bun of hair and started combing them.

He smiled inwardly.

Their was silence in room.

"Sanyukta...You like pearls.Right?" Randhir broke the silence

"Yeah...but how do you know that" She asked

"Just a guess..." He said

"Your guess is right" She replied

"Hmm..." He nodded

"Hey but...why...why are you asking me this?" Sanyukta asked

"I got something for you" Randhir said

"What...?" She asked

"Wait..."

He brought a box from his wardrobe and handed it to her.

"What's this Randhir?" She asked

"A gift for you...open it" He said

"Gift..." Her eyes glittered in happiness

She opened the box

"This is so beautiful..." She chirped happily looking at the gift.

Randhir gifted her a single pearl clinging in silver chain.

"But why gift Randhir?" "I mean...I can't.." she tried to day

"You are my wife Sanyukta..." He said

"Its our wedding gift...You liked it?" He asked.

"This is..." "Thank You Randhir" She said looking at him through mirror.

"I loved it..." She said happily.

He moved her hair on one side and made her wear the chain.

The chain looked beautiful on her.

She touched the pearl and their eyes met.

They looked at each other through mirror.

"You look beautiful" He whispered in her ears giving her shivers

"You looked beautiful yesterday too...you look beautiful everyday" He said

She blushed on his statement.

He placed a light peck on her cheek and she blushed more.

"We are getting late..." She mumbled.

"Hmm..."

He turned her to face him.

"Sanyukta...Randhir...come down beta...breakfast is ready" Renuka shouted from downstairs

"Coming..."

Sanyukta pushed Randhir and ran outside with him following her
