Epilogue

MUKTA

✨

There was a round of applause echoing in the huge ground as I innaugrated the Joshi's' plant and I could see all smiling faces around me. My eyes filled up with fresh tears as I see a board to a small building there. It is a small building but the name on it read 'Chandrakant Vaidyalaya' and the name alone made me emotional. My Baba!!! I love you so much Baba. I miss you!!!

My eyes were moist when I felt an arm around my shoulders and I turn around to see Omkar standing there with a smile.

'Please babygirl!!! It's a happy moment for you... please...no tears today!!!' saying he wiped my tears. I was missing Baba a lot when suddenly I see my phone ringing and it was a video call. I pick the same only to see Damodar Baba, Gauri Ayi, Pattu and Rudra Dada on the call. My throat fills up as I see Damodar Baba and I whisper...

'Baba.....' and he says ...

'We are proud of you Mukku. We knew you must be missing your father today but trust me although I don't know Marathi I will definitely being your Konkani version of Baba...' and I giggled in between my tears when everyone else added...

'And me your mother...' when Gauri Ayi said

'Im your brother!!!' Rudra Dada said but then when Pattu the great is around can anyone take away the cream from milk. She pulled the phone from Damodar Baba's hands and said...

'And I'm your everything Shizuka Vanni...I'm your sister in law, sister, bestie, cupid...I can even be your financial advisor!!! You see I make money for your husband too!!!' and I burst out laughing when Om jumps in the call and says...

'Yeah yeahhh thank you Pattu Maata!!! Bestow your blessings upon us!!!' and she dramatically raises her hand saying 'Tathaaastu Putra (God bless you son)' and we all burst out laughing.

'How is my niece' Om asks her and she scowls saying...

'Nephew it is!!! I want a baby boy!!!' and Rudra Dada jumps in saying...

'Baby girl it is!!!'

'Boy!!!'

'Girrrrrl!!!'

'Boyyyyyyyyyy!!'

'Shutup you both!!! And Dada please until and unless it's a healthy baby we don't care...do we?' I ask and he blushes when Pattu smiles and says...

'Oleeeee my hottieeee' and kisses his cheeks in excitement. When Om, me and our parents clear our throats. She gets a little too excited nowadays. Call it the pregnancy hormones but she's super cute. We spoke for sometime when they teased us to enjoy our honeymoon that we had planned to go post this inaugral ceremony.

Our concentration diverts as the Sarpanch walks in and he folds his hands infront of us. Omkar was still mad at him and didn't want to see his face. But he is very much elder and disrespecting him isn't right. I ask him to take a seat when he quietly sits down and says...

'I wanted to apologise to you Mukta. It was all my anger and frustration that caused all the mess. I am truly guilty about it!!!' and that's when Om stands up and spat angrily...

'What do you want now Sarpanch ji...you have screwed up enough!!! Now what are you here for!!!' and I kept my hand on Om's hand asking him to calm down but he looked furious.

'Mukta only because of him you did not get your Baba's house back. After swallowing all the money he has still gone in and illegally sold that property to that Goan businessman. For what??? Money??? I would have paid you ten times more you greedy man!!! But there's no medicine to jealousy!!! But don't worry with the next Panchayat elections I will make sure you loose your post and the rest ..your land...your property...your family!!! I have an eye on all... remember Sarpanch ji...you tried to attack my wife's dreams I destroy yours!!!

You have no idea what O.K is!!! And believe me you don't want to have an idea either!!!' he says gritting his teeth and threatening the Sarpanch. I have to practically pull Om more into me to not make him attack the Sarpanch. He was furious because Sarpanch out of jealousy ..even after taking money from me and we winning the court case had sold my Baba's house to a Goan big shot businessman who intends to build a five star hotel after demolishing my Baba's house.

I was shocked when I heard that. Sarpanch was been sent to custody for this illegal action he took but looks like the Goan businessman is highly influential and cunning. He was playing all his cards to make sure he gets the land but he didn't know if he was a cunning fox Om is also a fearless wolf. We decided to go all legal. And Fari my best friend, her firm was handling this case. Fari had personally took upon this case and was fighting it. She was pretty confident we will win it although the Goan businessman was not just highly influential. He also had illegal contacts. Fari was been threatened to quit this case but little did the Goan businessman know that my husband was also having all good and bad people in his circle. He also used his contacts to show him his place. It's like two biggies had locked their horns. But it still made me sad to see my Baba's home still restricted for me.

I received a call from Fari who looked extremely happy for me. She was congratulating me. I was extremely happy but how I wish if that house as well came back to me. My Baba and my Ayi breathed their last there. My thoughts were broken when Fari softly said...

'Mukku...I promise you!!! That house is as much mine as it's yours!!! Chandrakant uncle has fed all of us morsels in that home. We have played hide and seek in those gardens. I promise you Mukta. No Alexander Brendon D'Cruz can take away that house from you!!! Its your bestie's word to you! And to such criminal brains I will show them how they cannot touch what's not theirs. They will learn. Alexander Brendon D'Cruz you will not get what's Legally Not Yours!!!' she said in a determined tone.

'Fari...careful!!! I heard he is a big shot with all big mafias under his elbow. To which Fari smiled saying ...

'Law is same for everyone Mukku. He maybe a big shot but I'm also not a petty lawyer!!! I am handling this case myself. I will make sure he knows his place!!! You don't worry!!!' she said and I smiled.

'Now just go on your honeymoon babe...don't think about all this...Your Fari will take over from here...you just go and make lots of babies' she said and my eyes widen while she bursts out laughing. This girl is crazy.

✨

The moon shines brightly tonight and the stars twinkled more and I smile a little more when the crackling sound of wood made and the beatles made me smile. I slowly rubbed my hands to gather more heat when I felt a presence behind my back and I smiled to myself.

I heard a whisper...

'I love that blush on your cheeks!!! It makes me want to eat you up!!! Right here right now babygirl' he says and pulls me right on his lap and I giggle. He covers us in a thick blanket. We are sitting in the middle of jungles of Kanchanjuri Kaziranga, Assam for our honeymoon. I smile as I feel his lips devouring my neckline and he slowly takes the bowl of thukpa closer to my lips after blowing softly against the spoon and I take a spoonful in my mouth and I moan at its taste. The weather goes as low as a 10-12' here at night and this was our second night here. He had took me around Golaghat City and today we had a safari in the jungle and right now here we are relaxing in each other's arms after a tiring day.

'You know this fragrance drives me crazy!!! I so want to do it all over again' he says and my eyes widen at his announcement. I tried to get off his hold but his grip tightens around my waist and he pulls me more into his lap when I feel his arousal and I shudder.

'Om....we can't...we just did it sometime ago!!!' i whispered in his ears when he simply licks my neck and slowly leaves a small bite on my neck and I whimper at his actions. His hand sneaks into my tshirt and slowly pinches my waist as I jump more and he whispers...

'You bring the Demon alive in me my Jalebi!!! I want to devour you!!! I want to eat you up like how you can't even imagine!!! And you know I love to 'EAT' you!' he emphasizes the word and my eyes widen and I slap his chest. He chuckles and I hide my face in his chest.

He's one naughty demon! But then he's mine!!! All mine!!!

✨

'But why can't you continue working here Mukta...this is also your organization!!!' Sameer says and I smile sipping our favorite orange juice by the roadside and say

'No Sameer!!! It's my in-laws and my husband's organization. I am just an employee and anyways Joshi's needs a lot of attention. Travelling to Phulvaspura on and off takes a lot of toll on me and come on I'm a freelancer now. I will complete the Greenhouse project and also work as a freelance advisor in Patty's!!! But I can't come back as a full time resource' I try to say Sameer when I hear Karthik...

'She is right Sam...she has her own aspirations. You go ahead Mukta. We are all with you. And remember we are proud of you sweetie!!!' he says and I smile and hug Karthik. He freezes for a moment but pulls me in his embrace too.

'Thank you buddies for being there for me!!!' I say and Karthik pulls my nose and Sameer caresses my head. Just then i hear Omkar's voice...

'Mukta!!!' I hear and I turn around to see Om in his bike and he has a serious face.

'Shall we??? We are getting late for Pattu's baby shower!!!' he says and I nod. I turn around bidding a bye to Sameer and Karthik when I see Omkar's burning gaze on Karthik and he uncomfortably shifts in his place. This man is dangerously a big baby J!!!

I sit behind him and put on the helmet but my demon of a jealous husband drives like a maniac. Throughout the journey he doesn't speak a word and the bike stops at Nayak's Mansion which is filled with guests and relatives. Today was Pattu's baby shower as she turned 8 months pregnant now.

Om however looks pissed and angry. This guy is crazy at times. He simply grabs my hand and drags me along with him upstairs while not even allowing me to talk to anyone. He pulls me into our room and before I could utter a word he slams his lips against mine. I loose my breath as I feel his lips posesively against mine. He kisses me rigorously as his hands go to my tshirt flicking it off my body and I'm pushed towards the cold wall while he voluntarily removes his tshirt and devours my lips again. His hands roam around my curves and squeezes me at places leaving me shuddering and yet begging him for more.

'I hate it when Karthik sees you like that!!! I don't know if you know but that guy adores you a little too much and I can't see him with you!!! I know I'm an idiot!!! I'm jealous but you are mine babygirl!!!' saying he bites my neck and chest leaving hickeys on my neckline and I moan his name...

'Ommmm....you are crazy!!! He's....ahhhh... he's just a friend...' I manage to mutter under his crazy torture when he manges to flick the last piece of cloth of my body and throws me on the bed...I giggle as I see him undressing himself yet teasing me when I slowly move back on the bed trying to get off his hold but he wildly holds my leg and drags me into him and within seconds I am in his arms. He hovers upon me raining kisses all over my body when I whimper and mutter...

'Om....there are guests in the house!!! Stop they can hear us!!!' while he kisses my waistline and discards the last piece of cloth off my body and jumps over me and presses himself tightly against me saying...

'You must have thought about it before hugging Karthik!!!' saying he kisses my stomach and I laugh like a baby as he tickles me. Tears fall off my eyes as he has filled my life with his love and he doesn't leave a chance to make me feel how much he loves me! Yet he's a little too posessive but then so am I...I had stomped upon a girl's foot last week who had tried to give lusty looks to him. We both are a little too overpowering but then we love each other more and want to protect each other till eternity. He enters me yet another time and I moan his name biting my lips trying to keep it as low as possible as he takes me yet another time on our bed making me his all over again.

✨

'I love these sexy knotted blouses of yours!!!' saying he ties the knot of my blouse while I wear my neckpiece and he continues kissing my sweet spot when I shudder at his touches.

'We have a baby shower to attend Mr Nayak!!!' I whisper while he slowly sneaks his hands inside my saree touching fondling my waist as he hums and kisses my back.

'I can't get over your fragrance babygirl!!! Ummmm' he moans and presses his lips more on my back but this time I flip my hair and turn around.

'Stopppp!!! Let's go!!!' saying I button his kurta and he pulls me by my waist as I crash into his chest.

'Only on one condition!!! Just like you let me tie these knots...you would let me untie them too tonight' he winks and I roll my eyes at his comment. This guy is crazy!!! I slap his chest and he hugs me more.

We walk downstairs when we look at Pattu who looks beautiful with that huge baby bump. Gauri Ayi and Paro aunty ward of evil from Pattu and begin the rituals. I being the eldest daughter in law perform a few more rituals as instructed by Gauri Ayi. Post the rituals we all gather in the garden clicking pictures with Pattu. When Om and I click pics with Pattu we hear a few ladies asking Gauri Ayi when am I giving a good news. They begin giving stupid statements like how my biological clock is ticking and how we must plan a baby soon.

But then Om posesively holds my hand and walks next to those ladies and says ...

'Actually aunty...my wife is breathtakingly beautiful. I so cannot get enough of her because she's not just beautiful outside but a gorgeous person inside too. The thing is she has ambitions and a job to do unlike gossip mongers who can only talk and gossip shit!!! We need time and are not ready yet for baby making because I want to devour my wife...why are you being a fish bone in my awesome sex life aunty!!! ' he said and the aunties embarrassed by Om's blunt reply begin to walk away but Om shouts saying

'Don't worry aunty we will make sure to let you know when my wife is pregnant!!! Promise you I'll not hide her anywhere!!! It's not like I can't hide her baby bump somewhere with a handkerchief or a towel you see!!!' and Pattu bursts out laughing. Om and Pattu give each other a hi five and I glare at both of them. They are crazy.

✨

'Ahhhhhhhh... That was awesome babygirl!!!' he says as we finished yet another round tonight and I lie down next to him skin to skin as we both are sweating now. I look towards the roof still in my thoughts while he turns around and snuggles into my chest...

'Om....' I whisper and he hums ...

'You really are not ready to have a baby?' I ask him and he lifts his head up and looks at me...

'Why is that thought revolving in your little brain?' he asks and I slowly sit up covering my bare body with the sheets and tug my fingers onto the sheets and bite my lips.

'Is there something you want to tell me babygirl?' he asks while sitting up and resting his head against the headboard and I clear my throat.

He lifts me up and makes sit on his lap and asks... 'What's wrong???' I slowly draw circles on his chest drawing a M on his chest and whisper...

'What if we have an unplanned one!!!' I say and his eyes widen as he cups my face and looks into my face and unable to face his fierce gaze I look at his chin and play with his facial hair ...

'BabyGirl....you mean!!! You mean....we....we .. are we???' he asks and I bite my lower lip and say....

'Its....you know we never used protection and last month...you know it wasn't the safe period...so ..ummmm...you know....I....I took a home test and....ummm it's....ummmm...'

'Its???' he asks sounding a little too curious and I break the news...

'Its positive!!! We....we are pregnant!!!' I say and his lips part visibly. I lift my eyes to see his face he looks shocked.

'Om....it's....its unexpected...I know but...you know I really want to have this ba' and he doesn't even let me complete the statement and slams his lips onto mine kissing the hell out of me. I am left astonished as he slows down the fierce kiss and slowly caresses my bare stomach.

'Thank you thank you thank you so so much my babygirl!!! Thank you thank you...' saying he showers kisses all around my face and slows removes the sheets off my body and places a kiss on my tummy and I smile in between my tears...

'One month?' he asks and I smile and take out a doctor's report and give it in his hand saying '3 weeks!!!' and I see tears rolling down his eyes and I wipe my man baby's face and slowly kiss his bearded chin while he chuckles saying...

'Our baby!!!' and I nod. He smiles and takes me in a sweet kiss and I am lost in him yet another time.

Our little journey had begun with several ups and downs. Our unplanned wedding to our posessive love for each other to fighting each other's demons we grew into becoming each other's strength.

We became #OMukta for each other and now we are bestowed upon a blessing in our life. I can only thank Bappa for this beautiful journey and giving me a life partner like Om. Our journey towards love and life had just begun...

This is our happily ever after!!!

OMukta's happily ever after ❤️
