AGASTYA'S POV

I am Agastya Aloknanda. One of the CEOs of "Yaariyan Wedding Planners" which is now the leading Wedding Planners in India. I am married to my best friend's love interest also my girl friend's best friend. Sounds crazy right? But that is the truth of my life. My wife Lops was my childhood enemy. I still remember the day, when we first met. Though I was only four years old that time, I feel like it happened yesterday. That was the first day of our kinder garden. I was made to sit next to Lops. During break, I asked her to share her strawberries as that is my fav, but that idiot girl said that she won't share with me. So, I pulled and freed her one pony tail and she immediately started crying. That was our first fight. After that we had infinite fights. I never once thought that we can live in the same roof, but today we are staying in the same room for the past five years.

Our wedding was something least expected. I asked my best friend to confess his love for Lops, but that stupid guy never did that. I still feel guilty whenever I see him. But he said that he moved on from her, and now waiting for someone who can rule his heart. I hope so he gets her soon. The best thing that I got through my marriage is my princess, Adhamya. She is the one who rules my heart now. My mother blackmailed us to get her a grandchild. First, I was least interested in children that too with Lops, never in my dream. But when she announced, she is pregnant, I felt over the moon. I started caring for her. At last we got our gift after nine months, our Adhamya. She is just like me. Lops cried more after seeing our daughter than she cried during delivery saying that she was the one who carried her but Adhamya looks like a carbon copy of me, not only features my Adhu has got all my behavior too. She is my partner in crime nowadays.

Everything in my life changed in a gif, five years before. I, myself changed a lot. From a arrogant, idiotic youngster to a responsible man. It is true that when a daughter is born, a father is also born. I also changed a lot after my Adhu's birth. Tomorrow is our fifth anniversary, successfully without killing each other we have crossed five years. I know every year, Lops whispers in my ears at 12 o'clock. But I never had the courage to do that. Maybe guilt is still eating me. It is not that I am stuck with my past, I have moved on for sure. Sometimes our mistakes, never let us sleep. I fall in that category. My one mistake, that changed many people's life. I never want to remember tomorrow. I didn't even wish Lops on our first anniversary. I know as a woman, she also will have many dreams about her husband atleast to wish her during anniversary, but I am not a normal human being.

Like expected, she wished me for anniversary by whispering in my ears. I woke up at 5 am and looked at the two beautiful women, god sent me in my life. One is my wife, other is my princess. What my wife doesn't know is that I am wishing her for anniversary on anniversary early morning without her knowledge. I took the strands of hair that is covering her beautiful face, stuck that in her ears. I wished her a very happy anniversary and gave her a forehead kiss. I also gave my Adhu her fav teddy, so that she can sleep hugging it. I always pray just one thing to god, not to take any more people from my life. I already lost my mom when I was two years old. I know everyone's question will be "How did your mom die when she was the one who asked for grandchild?". The truth is she is my step mom. But she removed her uterus just because she doesn't want any more child for her so that she can give me the whole love. Maybe that is the reason I always obliged to all her request. The care, the love, the affection what she showed for me is something even my own mother wouldn't have given it to me. I lost my love and my grandma too. Now, I don't want to lose anymore people. That is the reason, I strictly said to Lops that I don't want any more children. Because during her first pregnancy itself, she got a lot of complications, though it was a normal delivery. I don't want her to undergo anymore pain.

That is the main reason why we never got intimate after she got conceived with Adhmaya. But still three months back, without our knowledge, our friends spiked our drinks and we ended up in bed. The next morning, I said sorry and left her. How mean of me! Many say men are not emotional. Actually, men are more emotional than women but we are not brave enough to show like women. That is the truth. Keeping all these thoughts aside, I came from my workout and woke up my daughter. I gave her bath and was wiping her with her spongy towel, Lops entered. She is glowing nowadays. Lops took our princess to make her ready. After I got freshen up, I came out and was buttoning my shirt, my princess asked me what is the meaning of kadoos. I know very well Lops was scolding me. When I told her the meaning, she teased her mom and left. After all, she is my daughter. Lops also left angrily.

I reached the dining table and my parents wished me for our anniversary. I acted as usual that I forgot it completely. I know Lops act like she doesn't give a thing about it. But at the end of the day, I know she is hurt. I mean who won't. The party was on full swing in the evening. My best friends Onkar, Wridesh, Teerth with his wife Yadavi all came to the party. Yadavi is really a nice girl. But Teerth being an ignoramus, is not ready to see her worth. Onkar loves Adhmaya a lot. I sometimes wonder how he changed a lot all these years. Wridesh is my mom's favourite as he is the biggest fan of my mom's cooking. Dayita didn't attend the party as usual. I don't know what's wrong with that girl. My parents asked us to cut the cake.

When we were about to cut the cake, my ex-girlfriend's parents entered our house. Lops got really excited to see them. But they moved and there stood my ex-girlfriend and my wife's best friend "Ekiya". I heard Lops whispering Ekiya's name and then she was about to fell down, I got her on time. Lops fainted. Seeing her mumma's condition, my princess started to cry.

I took Lops in my arms and took her to our room. Thank god, Onkar's mother is a gynecologist and she also accompanied him to the party. She went and checked Lops. I took Adhu from Yadavi who was crying continuously.

"Dada, Mum... mumma.. Adhu will be a goud(good) gal(girl). Ask mu.. mumma.. to.. wake.. up", she said with several hiccups.

"Princess, mumma will be fine", I pacified her somewhat. But she never listens to anyone when something happens to her mumma. Once, Lops got a cut in her finger while cutting vegetables. My princess was the one who cried till that finger was bandaged. She loves her mumma a lot.

Aunty came out from our room.

"Congrats Agu, you are going to be a father again", she said. Everyone is so happy to hear it.

"Princess Adhu, you are going to be a big sister soon", Yadavi said to Adhu.

"I want a blother(brother) to play", Adhu said everyone.

To be honest, I am happy. Yea, I never wanted another child but because of Lops health. I am feeling over the moon again. Omg! I am going to be a father again. That is why Lops was glowing.

"Aunty, she will be alright right? I mean last time itself she had some complications but luckily she had normal delivery", I asked aunty.

"Offo, so much concern for your wife Agu. Don't worry, she will be alright. Bring her tomorrow to hospital. I will conduct some test and I will give you a diet chart also for her. You all can go and see her now.", Aunty said.

I just went inside forgetting about everyone. I looked at my wife who was looking nervous.

She looked at me with full of tears. But why? " You fool, you are the one who said to her that you don't want any more children", my brain spoke to me.

"Agu, I am sorry. I know, you don't want any more children. But, it happened. Please don't ask me to abort it. Please... I will take all the expenses of this baby. I won't torture you with mood swings and midnight cravings like I did for Adhu..", she was kept on blabbering.

She thinks that I will ask her to abort the baby. She is thinking that low of me. I should first clarify her everything but before that I should shut her mouth. I don't know what went in my brain at that time, I just held her face and kissed her. First, she pushed him then eventually started responding. I left her after few minutes. We both were breathing heavily.

"Thank you", this is the first word I said to her. I hugged her and started speaking what I actually felt.

"Lops, it is not like I never wanted any more children. I was just concerned about your health. I am extremely sorry, that I scared you. I will never ask you to abort the baby at any cost. Thank you for giving me this wonderful gift on our anniversary. Happy anniversary", I spoke in one go.

"Happy anniversary to you too", Lops voice almost came as a whisper.

All our friends and family entered our room after knocking.

"Congrats Lops! You are going to get another bundle of joy", Yadavi came and hugged Lops.

"Man! This is unfair ok. I mean you have two bachelors in your group and here you are ready for your second child. You are so mean", Wridhi spoke in fake anger.

"I am feeling sorry for another child who is going to get crazy parents", Teerth said. I don't know whether they are wishing us or mocking. I have crazy friends.

Adhu just ran to her mumma.

"Mumma, Adhu is a big sister now", she spoke happily.

"Did you cry Adhu?", Lops asked her by seeing her puffy eyes and tears stained cheeks. Adhu nodded yes. Lops hugged her and kissed her cheeks.

"Guys", we all heard a voice. The voice which ruled my heart once, the voice which I wanted to hear every day in my life. Now, she is again in my life.

I turned and looked at Ekiya. She just came running towards me and hugged me tightly. I don't know how to react to this situation now. I just stood numb.
