Thank you for your lovely votes and comments on the previous chapter❤️

Sonal's POV:

Bright yellow rays peeping through the curtains of the window were falling on my eyelids disturbing my beautiful sleep.

I was awake but wasn't in a mood of  getting out of my comforter so just turning my face sideways I blocked the disturbance and resumed my sleep listening to the lub-dub of my Arjun's heart❤

After many days I had a peaceful sleep in the arms of my man with my head lying on his chest and his arms around me. The feeling is serene❤

I felt his fingers caressing my hair and a smile curved up my lips.

"Don't wanna wake up??"

"No" I replied in my sleepy voice still lying on him

"We are getting late Sona"

"I don't care...just let me lie down here on my favorite pillow"

"Your favorite pillow is not going to run away from you my over-possessive wife...let's wake up...we need to rush to our respective works"

Lifting my head from his chest I mumbled "But I don't wanna go anywhere...I need a long break"

Putting  his hands back to his head he said "Hmm...even I need it so badly"

"See...you feel the same...so let's stay at home today"

"Your wish is my command Sona...but before that let's wake up from this bed or else everybody will be thinking that we are up to something...you know what I mean right??" He asked with a naughty smile.

And the poor me couldn't help with my cheeks getting pink and had to hide them from his teasing gaze. So I lowered my head and smiled on his chest.

Tucking my hair locks which were brushing his broad robust chest he whispered in a husky voice

"Hayee...my cutie ghost...how can you blush so beautifully"

I tried getting up but he held me by my waist "Why do you always try hiding your blushy cheeks??"

"Aren't we getting late??" Raising my brows I cross-questioned him

"You know what...when you blush your cheeks turn into pink Shimla apples...and I love biting

Before he could finish his words I slapped his chest hard and made myself free from his hold and ran to the washroom without turning back at my shameless husband.

I glanced at my face in the mirror and realized that my shameless husband was right. My cheeks were turned completely red like a fresh tomato and a blushy smile was stuck hard to my lips.

And I heard a knock on the door.

"Sona...Take your own time to blush..I won't disturb you...I'll use another restroom"

************************************

I took a shower and got dressed up into my salwar kameez as we will be hanging around at home. I was wiping my hair with a towel. Arjun came into the room in his T-shirt and track pants and at the same time, my phone began ringing.

"Sona...it's Siya" he picked up the phone passing it to me and his finger slipped on the speaker icon

"Hey, sweetheart...tell me about yesterday's results...I am dying to hear it...what was the flavor?? Strawberry or peach....how did Arjun rea

Before I could reach him the pregnant dinosaur spoke everything in one go and I wanted to hide deep inside the earth.

Running to him I snatched the phone from his hand and immediately mumbled to her "I'll call you later" and cut the call.

Arjun was looking at me with a number of question marks on his forehead and I passed a fake smile at him

"What was Siya talking about Sona?? Is everything Ok with her?? What are those reports she was talking about??"

He shot back-to-back questions with his eyes filled with concern.

My poor husband got frightened. Little did he know what she was asking about. Now I had think of an answer. And trust me I am very bad at giving fake answers. But thankfully Somehow I managed

"Umm...Arjun... it's nothing serious...Siya was talking about her monthly pregnancy reports...and everything is going well with her and the baby...so relax"

"Jhooti kahi ki...hamesha toh badi sacchai ki murat bane phirti hai...ab kaha gaya tera sach bolo wala naara..han??

(Lier...all the time you carry the image of truth....now where is your so called slogan of truth)

"I was scared for a minute" he breathed a sigh of relief placing his palm to his forehead

I just shook my head.

"But she was talking about some flavors...strawberry peach and something...what was that??"

God...if Siya wasn't pregnant then definitely I would have killed her for this.

What shall I answer him now??

"Batade na sidhe sidhe...it was about the lipstick flavor...bolne me kya sharam...raat ko toh bade maze lerahi thi...ab kyu sharma rahi hai..han??

(Tell him directly that it was about the lipstick flavor...whats the shame to speak...at night you were enjoying a lot..now why are you feeling shy??)

My mind never ever leaves an opportunity of pulling my leg.

"Vo..vo" I was scratching my forehead with my index finger thinking for an answer while he was staring at me with a questioning look. I had to think fast before he gets any further doubt.

"Ha...I asked her to eat strawberries and peach...maybe she forgot so  was asking the same"

"Oh...ok"

Before I could pat my back for my answers he bombarded one more question

"But why did she mention my name??"

And now I gone🤦🤦

This time I didn't have any answer for the most logical question.

How would Siya's pregnancy report related to Arjun??

What the hell should I answer now??

"Sach sach bata deti toh iski naubat na aati"

(If you have told the truth then it wouldn't have come this far)

"When did she mention your name...I didn't hear your name on the call" I said shrugging my shoulders

"Sona...just now on the call...I heard my name so clearly...she said how did Arju

"But I didn't hear anything that sounded like your name" I interrupted him with a confident voice

"Just now you had a bath na Arjun....so water must have run through your ears...and that's the reason you heard wrong...it happens sometimes"

"And the Oscar award goes to"

The benefit of being a doctor😉

And my innocent husband trusted me blindly nodding his head.

"Chalo...I'll get tea for you" I announced and took a step past him but he held my wrist.

I knew what was running in his mind so taking a step closer I assured him

"Everything is absolutely fine with Siya and the baby...don't worry"

"Pakka??"

"Ha pakka"

Snaking his hands around my waist he pulled me into him even more closer and eyeing my lips exclaimed shamelessly

"I want your assurance in another way"

Touching his forehead I said

"In the morning itself you are getting so romantic...are you having a fever...let me check"

Taking off his hands from my waist he groaned "Such a spoiler you are"

I laughed out loud at his reaction and words as well.

************************************

As we were late directly we had our lunch. Amma filled our plates with excess food giving the reason that we skipped our dinner last night.

Seeing our happy faces Amma and Madhavi Didi were relieved too.

My happy husband demanded fish rasam as a dinner menu.

Arjun never asks for something on his own except for the circumstances where he is extremely happy.

For example, we can consider the morning incident. He was getting so romantic...which is very rare  for my Dumb husband  who only watches silent movies....no gana-bajana...no romantic scenes...only silent dialogues😏

The angry bird was totally transformed into a Prince Charming❤

And I was enjoying this Prince Charming mode of him.

Post lunch I decided to clean up my messy wardrobe and got myself busy in it.

"Sonal....Sonal...wheres my charger??"

I heard him calling my name for the first time.

"Am I hearing correct??" I asked myself

"Water must have run through your ears as well...so you are hearing wrong"

Getting a taunt from my mind I looked at him in disbelief.

"It's in the right drawer" I answered him

Taking out the charger he said "Got it..thank you Sonal" and began leaving the room as nothing happened.

"Did you call me Sonal??" Holding his wrist I asked

"Ha...that's what your name is..hai na??" Swirling around he replied raising his brows

What's wrong with him now??

"Ha...but you never called me Sonal" I said in a confusing tone

"Because right now you are not my Sona" he reacted calmly shrugging his shoulders

"Then who am I??" I questioned him crossing my arms

"You are Sonal" again he reacted so coldly and I was getting irritated

"And what's the difference between the two??" I raised my voice a little in irritation

"Sonal misunderstood me but my Sona would have never done that because she trusts me"

"Everything is sorted now...why are going back to the same track Arjun??"

"Because I forgive but never forget"

"Arjun listen"

"You listen to me Sonal...when I came back home you slapped me... punched me on my chest and stomach but my Sona never does that...she would have taken me in her warm embrace...and most importantly Sona never uses her hands on my cheek...she uses only her soft petal-like lips" at the end of his statement he had a mischievous smile

"Speaking about today....in the morning I asked for something but Sonal made fun of me...but my Sona would have given me without any second thought"

Oh, so that's what the problem is. He didn't get what he wanted. I tried hard not to laugh at his childish drama and ended up giggling.

"Why are you laughing??" crossing his arms he said in a stern voice

" Ok baba...I am sorry"

"Neither I need your sorry nor any Sonal....I just want my Sona back"

What should I do now??

Nothing came to my mind so directly the next moment I pushed him to the wall by his chest such that my soft  bossom hit his hard robust chest and caged him.

His eyes grew big as saucers and his mouth opened wide as fish due to sudden action. But soon he composed himself.

"Look...my wife Sona is super possessive...so better you don't touch me"

"Why are you so afraid of your wife??"

"Because when a girl tries to get close to me...my wife hits me hard as if I am a punching bag"

"Aww...I pity you"

Brushing off my hands he retorted "Stay away from me...my wife is a doctor...if she comes to know about you being close to me then she can do anything"

He was arguing like a kid.

"What can she do??"

"She can give you anesthesia making you unconscious and pluck out your hands and eyes for touching and seeing her husband....you don't know about her...she is so violent" he said so innocently that I couldn't control laughing at him.

"Don't worry even I am a doctor...I can protect myself from your violent wife"

"You are a doctor too??...then I have to be even more cautious with you"

"Why so??"

"What if you inject me with any kind of drug and take advantage of me??"

"Arjun are you serious??" Taking a step I was laughing extremely loud holding my stomach while he continued babbling

"And ha don't try to shut my mouth with your filmy tricks like kissing and don't steal my first kiss... it's reserved for my wife"

Suddenly my laughter was suspended.

"Hello Mr. Arjun...we already had 3 kisses ok...though I am a doctor I am good at maths as well" I told him confidently

"The first one...when my mangalsutra was stuck to your shirt button...the second one...last  night when we confessed...and the third one the same last night when you were getting naughty...and in this way we shared three kisses in total" counting my three fingers at each kiss I explained him.

He took one step closer to me cutting off the distance between us. Holding my hand he folded my first finger into a fist and said

"My dear talented mathematician...the first one when your mangalsutra got stuck to my button...it was just a brushing of lips and not considered as a kiss...the second one when we confessed...it was me who kissed you...and the third one...when I was getting naughty...it was just a peck and again not considered as a kiss" folding my each counted finger into a fist he clarified

I kept staring into deep hypnotic eyes while he was caressing my cheek with the back of his hands. His feather-light touch on my cheeks gave a shiver to my spine. My cheeks were radiating heat and were turning into a shade of hot pink

I was gasping at his sensuous touch while he proceeded his theory of kiss

"And in this way...all the three kisses we shared were initiated by me"

His index finger moved to my lips caressing it and I gulped a thick lump of emotions burning inside me while he continued "and I want my Sona to take the initiative this time...the moment you will take the initiative I'll call you as Sona....as simple as that"

As simple as that🤔🤔

What's your opinion on Arjun's statement🤔🤔

Will Sharmili Sona take the initiative🤔🤔

How was chapter🤔🤔

Is the chapter over dramatic🤔🤔

Hope you enjoyed❤❤

Stay safe and healthy❤❤
