One hour later, Room 410

Sanyukta is blushing like a newlywed bride, slowly she looks up at her reflection in the mirror and blushes clutching her baby pink towel tightly.

'Sanyukta, how much longer?' Randhir calls from inside the bathroom. Sanyukta blushes a deep shade of red on sensing his impatience.

She takes small steps towards the bathroom, her fingers shivers as she twists the door knob and slowly opens the door.

She steps in holding on her towel even more tightly. Slowly she moves her gaze up and sees Randhir is already seated in the tub. He is busy lighting the candles. She gulps noticing water droplets on his bare torso. Half on his body immersed in bubbly water, there is so much foam in the tub that the water is no longer transparent and Sanyukta is glad for that.

Randhir looks at her and she feels conscious as he eyes her from top to bottom. After few minutes Randhir extends his hand

'Come Sanyukta...trust me, I don't bite' he says smiling

Sanyukta blushes and slowly walks towards him. Sanyukta has her gaze lowered all the while as she takes her seat opposite him towards the other end of the bath tub. Randhir frowns.

Sanyukta is still holding the towel pressed against her chest.

'Sanyukta' Randhir calls and she shifts in her place feeling extremely nervous

'Why are you so shy?' he asks placing his hand over hers, she shivers slightly

'I...I...haven't... done... something like... this before' she says shyly still not meeting his gaze.

'Like I have done something like this' Randhir says and Sanyukta looks at him. He holds her hand tightly and pulls her, she falls on him, their gaze getting locked. Sanyukta realizes she is literally sitting on his lap with her palms on his bare chest. She blushes.

Randhir wraps his arms around her waist and smiles

'You look so beautiful up close' he says tugging random strand of hair behind her ear. She smiles shyly.

Sanyukta freezes on feeling his fingers on the knot of her towel, she shies as he slowly unties it.

'I love you' he says in her ear and she trembles

'I love you too' she replies looking into his eyes, he smiles and kissed her cheek.

Sanyukta turns around and leans her back against his chest resting her head on his shoulder. Randhir tilts his head slightly and kisses her forehead, she smiles. Randhir wraps his arms around hers and she places her hand over his.

He snuggles his face into her hair inhaling her scent. Randhir plants a gentle kiss on her shoulder and she trembles. She looks up and pecks his lips. Together they sat cuddling in the bathtub. Randhir puts some of the foam on her face and she frowns at him, she places foam on top of his head and on his nose and then giggles seeing him, he is looking like a crown. Seeing her laugh he laughs too, her giggle is contagious.

Randhir slowly turns her around and she instantly stops giggling, taking his hand in his he keeps looking at her while she lowers her lashes, he entwines their fingers and leans in kissing her lovingly.

Next morning Sanyukta is first one to wake up, she turns her head sideways and finds Randhir sleeping soundly, flat on his stomach. His eyes closed, hair ruffled and his mouth slightly open. Sanyukta smiles, he looks no less than a baby when asleep. No one could tell this guy is a real Sadu when he is awake. His one arm around her waist and one of his leg on top of hers. Sanyukta smiles and moves his arm placing his palm on her belly just above where their babies are. She blushes.

She looks at him again and this time her gaze falls on his back, she notices her nail marks there and feels guilty. Had she known what Randhir had planned she would have cut her nails. She pushes negative thought in back of her head and keeps admiring him lovingly, reminiscing the blissful last night.

Her admiring session is interrupted by her phone's irritating tone; she frowns turning around. She picks up the phone which is lying on the bedside table. She slowly moves his arm and still clutching her bedsheet against her chest she up straight picking up her phone.

Unknown number calling, flashed on her screen, she frowns. Who could it be early in the morning? She wonders as she presses answer button

'Hello, is this Mrs. Sanyukta Shekawat?' a strong unfamiliar baritone says from the other side

'Yes' She replies

'Good...Mrs. Shekawat, recently some of Saniyal shares has been transferred to your account. We need some formalities to be done for complete transfer of the money. So Mrs. Aggarwal you will be needed tomorrow sharp 9am here.' The man says from the other side

Sanyukta nods 'Okay, I will be there' she says.

She cuts the call. She feels Randhir's strong arms around her and smiles feeling his warmth.

'Who was on call?' Randhir says in sleepy tone kissing her shoulder. Sanyukta feels nervous, should she tell him? But then he will get upset on mention of Saniyal Industries and more importantly he won't let her go there alone and in case there he gets disturbed.

'Wrong number' Sanyukta lies feeling guilty of lying to him, she doesn't want to but then she can't see him getting upset or angry. She caresses his face with hers and giggles feeling ticklish because of his stubbles.

Randhir smiles and turns her around, she looks into his eyes. He cups her face in his palms and kisses her forehead making her smile. He then captures her lips for a passionate kissing gently pushing her on the bed.

Monday, Saniyal Industry, 9am

Sanyukta comes right on time as informed, she has dressed herself in formals to look professional.

'I am Mrs. Sanyukta Shekawat I have an appointment for 9am' she asks the receptionist.

'Yes' the young girl replies after confirming it from her desktop, she looks at Sanyukta

'Mrs. Shekawat, you have to go to the first cabin in the right. Sir will meet you there' the girl says politely.

Sanyukta nods and turns towards the cabin. As she walks through the corridor towards the cabin she senses some negative vibes, it's like her girly sixth sense warning her something bad will happen. But Sanyukta ignores the feeling, this is important. She needs to clear all the formalities in order to have a smooth transaction after the money will be used as fund for Mars mission.

She knocks at the door and is asked to enter. There is a man sitting there going through few papers and files.

'Sir...'Sanyukta says

The man looks up, he is a well-built man with dark complexation. He appears to be in his mid-30s.

'Mrs. Shekawat?' the man says

Sanyukta nods

'Come in' he says and Sanyukta enters.

'I had been called for formalities....'Sanyukta begins but she is cut off by a familiar voice

'Yes we had called you, "Mrs. Shekawat"'

Sanyukta freezes on hearing his voice.

ISRC

Randhir is calling Sanyukta's number but she isn't answering his calls. Randhir gets worried. He comes to the girl's room and finds only Kritika there who is busy combing her hair.

'Where is Sanyukta?' Randhir asks her. Kritika looks alarmed on finding Randhir in the room unannounced.

'I don't know, she left early in the morning...I and Sanaya were sleeping, but I woke up as she left'

'Did she say where she has gone?' Randhir asks impatiently

'No, she didn't. But she was dressed in formals so maybe she has gone for some official work' Kritika says

This made Randhir think, if she has gone for Official work then Sumrit Sir would have announced in front of everyone. But then whichever work she has gone for why didn't she tell him?

Randhir decides to clear his doubt by confronting Sumrit sir, even if its confidential he needs to know. Sanyukta is not only his wife but also is carrying his babies, he has all rights to know.

As he enters the cabin he is stopped by Becky, Randhir looks at her annoyed and insists he needs to meet Sumrit Sir, ASAP.

'He is on an important conference call, wait 15 minutes here' Becky says pointing towards the black sofa opposite her desk. Randhir argues to let him meet Sumrit sir but Becky was adamant. Randhir didn't want to get into serious argument with Sumrit Sir else he might refuse to tell about Sanyukta.

SANIYAL INDUSTRY

Rehan, Randhir's step brother, stands there at the door grinning wickedly. Sanyukta looks at him with an annoyed expression but she has to be calm in front of him, she doesn't want to create any unnecessary scene here. She hopes she will be done with all the formalities and leave soon without having much to interact with him.

Rehan asks the other man to leave making Sanyukta feel slightly uncomfortable. She still remembers the time he had kidnapped her and had almost her killed. And now having two lives growing inside her, she is more vulnerable.

'Good morning...Bhabhi' he says with his characteristic smirk. Sanyukta simply looks away

'How are you? and Bro? I am missing him terribly...does he know?' Rehan says coolly ignoring Sanyukta's discomfort.

She doesn't say anything but keeps looking away trying to calm herself

'Looks like Bro has some good news' Rehan says eyeing Sanyukta's baby bump. She is wearing a loose shirt, yet he spotted it. This made her more uncomfortable and she tries covering it with the file she had been holding.

'I had been called here for some formalities...I think we should be focusing on that...I have important work at ISRC.' Sanyukta says not looking at him but at his desk.

'Very well, Bhabhi...but what is the hurry...won't you have a cup of tea with your Dewar?' Rehan goes on least bit bothered about Sanyukta.

She looks up and meets his gaze 'I have important work, Mr. Bajaj...I need to go' she says trying to keep her voice steady.

Rehan shrugs and goes behind his desk, he gestures her to sit.

15minutes later, they were done with their work. Sanyukta gets up, collecting her file she is about to leave when Rehan stops her

'Bhabhi...do have tea with me...I too want to spend time with my Bhabhi and niece or nephew' Rehan says smirking

Sanyukta glares at him, she just wants to run away from here as soon as possible. The negative feeling increasing in her mind.

'Very well, it was nice meeting you' Rehan says forwarding his hand

Sanyukta thinks for few seconds before taking his hand shaking it.

Just then the cabin door opens and Sanyukta freezes on seeing her fear come to life. Randhir is standing there holding the door knob and looking at them; more specifically at her with a murderous glare.
