"Baby... Baby..... Baby......."

"Shut up and shut the music system off." I shouted and woke from my sleep. He was the one who shook me up from my sweet dream.

"Oh! I forgot that you were here too." He switched the system off and said.

"I was here too? Where would I go then? It's my room too."

"Okay, okay, sweetheart. I'm sorry for saying so. Now come here and give me a good morning kiss." He said in a cheesy voice and I walked towards him on my knees in the bed.

"What the hell is wrong with you? Why are you behaving weirdly? Are you having a fever?" I kept my palm on his forehead to check his temperature.

"No, my darling."

"I've told you many times, not to call me by these names."

"Okay." He said and I nodded, "My sleepy fatty pig!"

"You omelette!" I said while hitting him.

"Cool down." He said and bent down. Pulling my shirt up, he kissed my belly and said, "Cool down baby. Stop your mother's anger or she'll look like monkey's butt."

Monkey's butt?

It's red!

He compared me with monkey's butt!

"What are you saying?"

"Nothing. Just a secret between a father and his child."

"Go ahead, monkey's husband." I glared and pushed him. Opening the door of bathroom, I walked in and locked it from inside.

I don't have a bit of trust on this man in these cases!

Going through nature's call and brushing my teeth, I turned the knob and walked out in our room. I looked around and saw him doing push-ups. What a fitness freak! And a good idea striked my mind!

Walking towards him, I sat on his back and waited for him to stop his exercise. But he didn't stop, and instead continued doing his push-ups. "Don't worry. I have enough muscle power."

"I have enough muscle power!" I mimicked his dialogue.

"I'm not lying. How do you think I impregnated you?" He teased and I slapped his butt. "Ouch... You really are a fan of spanking!"

"You really have no filter in your mouth!"

"Nope." He said and I rolled my eyes before walking out. Pulling some fruits out in a tray, I brought a knife and went towards the dining table. "Divya..." He shouted and hugged me from back.

"It's already too warm and I don't want to hug anyone."

"But I want to. Should I switch AC on?"

"You really won't get off right?" I asked and he hummed. Pulling the knife out of fruits, I showed it to him. "Do you want to change your idea?"

"Relax. Put that thing away from us. Knife is not a good thing to fight with."

"Then go away and take a shower. It's been two days you bathed. Go and freshen up, and then dare to come close to me."

"Okay, I'm going." He sighed and went up to take a shower.

Gladly!

This man was roaming around with tons of bacteria!

But why do we always blame bacteria for everything? Why not virus, fungi and lots more of its kind?

Justice for bacteria...

Cutting the fruits, I stuffed them inside my mouth and chewed them while reading headlines. "I'm here." I heard him descending the stairs.

"I know."

"And I'm fresh, more than your fruits. Eat me all you want!"

"Go and cook something. I'm not a fan of non-veg."

"Your wish, my command." He saluted and went towards the kitchen to cook breakfast. What a cartoon my husband is!

Going back to our room, I went into the bathroom and washed my hairs. I traced my tummy with my fingers. My belly was coming a bit outwards. Wasn't it too early for my bump to grow?

It must be fat because of all the food that I was eating!

Taking a long shower, I wore my robe and dried my hairs with a towel while standing infront of the bathroom mirror. Wasn't I looking too amazing and beautiful?

Why am I turning into female Ayaan?

Just when I turned back, I was pinned between the sink and him. "What are you-"

"I wanted to have a long shower with you." He winked and snaked his arms inside my bathrobe.

"I've already taken one."

"Me too. But we can take one again."

"I'm not in mood to wash my hairs again. It already took enough energy to dry them up."

"I'll dry them up for you." He suggested.

This man! He has a solution for everything.

"I'm hungry."

"Me too."

"I want to eat my breakfast."

"Me too."

"I'll go out." I pushed him away from me and said.

"But I don't want to. It's been two days we made love." He pulled me back and lifted me up in his hold. "Don't ask me to leave you now. I've had enough of this."

"Ayaan Chauhan!! Leave me! I need to eat my breakfast."

"That's what I want to do." He said in his desperate voice and I glared. Making me sit on the bathroom slab, he leaned forward and was about to kiss me.

"Our baby is hungry."

"This baby of yours is hungry too." He said in his husky voice and bit my earlobe.

I can't win from him in these matters!

I saw the board and stepped back before sighing.

'Dhruv Weds Natasha'

Finally! After so many months!

"So? Which side are you from? Bride's or groom's?"

"Although I'm groom's sister, but the bride is my best friend. Let me be from my bride's side."

"Then I'll be from groom's side." Ayaan said and I nodded. "I'll come here with baraat. See you, my bride."

"Oh! We're already married two times. I don't have any wish to marry again, that too with you."

"Nobody is dying to marry you. Thank me that I married you otherwise you would've been single."

Really?

Two can play the game.

"Let's prepare the divorce papers then. I'll find a suitable guy for me in this wedding. I heard that Dhruv's colleagues are way too handsome." I said and he glared.

"No way. You aren't going to do anything. And, I'm never going to give you divorce." He warned and I chuckled.

"Okay, my husband. Now go and come with the baraat."

"I will, for sure. Wait for me." He said and I hummed before leaving to check the bride. Taking long strides, I went inside the bride's room but saw it empty. I saw a mirror in the room and decided to check my look for the last time.

"Oh my friend!" I heard a voice and turned around.

"Where were you Natasha?"

"I was there in the balcony to breathe some fresh air."

"Feeling nervous?"

"Hmm..."

"It's normal to feel like that. There's still time for you to think about backing up from this wedding. My brother is an expressionless man with whom you have to spend your entire life. Is your answer still yes?"

"As if I would back out! We're already married in papers." She chuckled.

"Don't you think I should act a little rudely with you, like a typical nanad?" (Husband's sister)

"What if she's my bestfriend?"

"Then ball is in your court. Your baraat may be on the way."

"Natasha!" Her mother came inside after searching her. "Don't cry, okay." She said and hugged her.

"Mum, I'm not going to cry on my special day. It's not that you're selling me off. I'm marrying the man I love."

"Hmm... I know my daughter very well. We're going to start the wedding preparations soon. Talk all you want till then." She said and left.

"Divya, should I call Dhruv?"

"Why?"

"I wanted to talk to him before our wedding."

"Why do I think that you're the more desperate one between you both?"

"It's not like that. Why would I be desperate?"

"For your suhagraat." I teased her.

"Divya!" She shouted and I laughed. "Diya, where were you?" I turned around and saw Diya.

"Hospital tests took longer than expected."

"Is everything alright?" I asked.

"Yes. I caught cold. And Shrey blamed me for eating ice-creams. What was my fault?"

"Even Ayaan stopped me from eating them. They both are stupid." I said and Diya nodded. We chatted for some time before they arrived.

Reaching out, we all settled in our respective places and continued the wedding rituals. They both were looking so adorable, giving the ideal couple goals!

Hearing a throat clearing sound, I turned to my side and saw Ayaan standing just beside me. "You're enjoying?"

"Why wouldn't I? It's my only brothers wedding."

"I wish I was a woman!" He said and I looked at him with shock.

"What? It's the first time I'm hearing a man wishing to get periods and pregnancy."

"I didn't mean that."

"Then what?"

"Nothing." He said and I shook my head in disbelief. "You want to eat something?" He asked and I nodded.

"But-"

"Let's go then. I heard that we have all your favourite dishes."

"Every other dish is my favourite."

"What are we waiting for?" He held my hand and dragged me towards the food. "Grab whatever you want to."

"As if I ever ask before eating!" I said and heard him chuckling from back. When I was about to take a morsel inside my mouth, he ate it. "What are you doing? Let me eat properly. If you want to eat, have another plate."

"Sharing a plate increases love!"

This man!

"I'm suggesting you to stop reading these type of information. They do nothing but degrade your mind."

"I heard that wives are pleased by these lines."

"Your source is giving you wrong information. I'm your wife and I'm not interested in these things. So please delete these sites of yours."

"Okay, I won't." He denied. I can't win from him! I shook my head in disbelief and continued eating my food. Leaning towards me sideways, he whispered, "Eat all you want. Because I'm not going to let you sleep tonight."

I choked on my food and looked towards him, "Why? I'm not in mood to play ludo late at night."

"Not ludo but other games. Like kissing, making love, cuddling and many more. In other words, we can have another suhagraat of ours!"

"It's not our wedding."

"I know too. But there's nothing wrong in having another wedding night."

"You!"

"Don't worry. We're going through tons of rounds tonight. And I'm not going to leave you."

"We'll see who wins." I said and he hummed. Going back towards the mandap, we sat there and saw them standing up for their pheras. "Ayaan." I tangled my arms with his and leaned my head on his shoulders.

"Hmm..."

"I love you."

"A sudden change? Well, I love you too." He said and I smiled. As the celebrations took its way, most of the rituals were finally over and we retired back.

Sitting inside the car, I took my phone out and saw the time. It was almost four thirty in early morning. I closed my eyes and leaned back on the seat while a soft instrumental music was on. I felt so good but tired.

Feeling myself being lifted up in air, I opened my eyes and saw myself in his arms. I closed my eyes again and hugged him tightly. He made me lie on the bed and went away. Even though I wanted to wake up and call him back, I was hell tired to do anything. Turning on my side, I again went into my la la land.

When I felt weight on my waist, I opened my eyes in annoyance and saw his arm on my waist. I tried to pull his hand up but this man was lost in his own world.

Suddenly I felt nauseous and wanted to puke all my guts out. Taking a deep breathe, I tried to push him back but couldn't succeed. "Ayaan!!"

"Hmm..."

"Leave me."

"Sleep."

"I want to vomit!" I shouted and ran to bathroom. Emptying my stomach, I washed my mouth and saw him still sleeping. How could he sleep so peacefully when his wife was vomiting?

I drank a glass of water and lied on my side of bed. I cleared my throat to wake him up but he didn't even budge up a bit. Sighing at my loss angrily, I closed my eyes and pulled the blanket up till my chest.

Feeling his arm around my waist, I pushed him back in anger. His arm again walked around my waist. Pulling his arm up, I threw it off to his side and kicked his leg.

"Divya! What are you doing?"

"Keep your hand to yourself."

"Why are you angry in early morning?"

"First of all, it's ten thirty. Second, I don't want to talk to you."

"What did I do now?"

"Nothing."

"Tell me Divya..." He snuggled close to me and asked. "If I did something wrong, them I'm extremely sorry. Tell me the reason of your anger."

"You were sleeping peacefully when I was in bathroom."

"You want me to be with you in bathroom?" He teased.

"I was vomiting, you idiot."

"I'm sorry for not being there. Alright?" He asked and I kept quiet, "Divya... Ignoring is not the way to solve anything. If you're angry on me, you need to shout it on my face."

"Okay, I will." I said and took a deep breathe before shouting, "You are an idiot, moron, stupid! You are a total omelette! You are an egg who always came last in exam!"

"Feeling good?"

"You aren't feeling bad that I badmouthed about you?" I asked and he shook his head in negative. "You are seriously ill."

"Keep that aside. Let's talk about something else. Like-"

"Eating. I'm hungry."

"Okay." He nodded and stood up to leave.

"Wait! Let's brush first."

"Ofcourse." He said and we went inside the bathroom. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I wasn't wearing the dress I wore yesterday. He must've changed my dress. I took my brush with the paste while he was busy peeing. Travelling my gaze towards him, I saw the seat kept down.

I'll kill him!!

"Ayaan!! How many times should I tell you to kept the seat up??"

"I... I'll do that from the next time."

"You always say that, but never do it."

"Okay, I know my mistake." He said and walked towards me. He was about to hug me from back, but I ran away from there with brush in my mouth. "What?"

"Wash your hands first and then touch me." I shouted.

"Okay, okay, relax. There's nothing to hyper. Relax." He said and washed his hands. "Fine?" He asked and I nodded. Taking brush in his hand, he took the toothpaste out and rubbed it around his teeth while I was brushing mine.

Walking down, I sat on the kitchen island while he was standing against the slab. "I'm hungry."

"What do you want to eat?"

"Sambar."

"Just sambar?"

"Hmm... But make it more sour than the usual."

"I will. But you need to wait for some time. I need to make some dosa for me." He said and I nodded. Cutting some fruits, I ate them and fed him at the same time.

Taking the first spoon of sambar inside my mouth, I moaned loudly. It was so sour. In one word, amazing!

"You like it?"

"Hmm..." I hummed and continued devouring my food. Digging the last spoon inside, I kept my bowl in the sink and washed my mouth. Before I could turn back, he engulfed me in a hug and kissed my head. "What are you doing?"

"Shouldn't we continue what we left?"

"What..... what did we leave?"

"Yesterday night, I promised something to you."

"I don't remember." I lied.

"Really?" He bent forward towards my neck and whispered, "How many rounds do you want?"

"Twenty."

"Really?"

"Hmm... Did I say something wrong?"

"Something? Twenty rounds are practically impossible."

"It's not my problem. Wait! Did I hurt your manly ego?"

"No you didn't." He said and turned to leave. I went towards him and clinged onto him from back.

"I was just teasing you." I said and he hummed, "Say something."

"Then..... let's go through my way."

"Huh?"

"Let's break our record of six rounds today."

"You're saying as if it's a match of cricket!"

"Seven rounds?"

"No. It's Dhruv's reception tomorrow and I don't want to waddle like a penguin."

"We'll go slow." He said and picked me up in his arms.

"Ayaan! Ayaan! Wait! Put me down!" I wiggled in his hold but the only thing he did was walking straight to our room. "I'm warning you Ayaan, if anything happens you'll be responsible."

"I'm glad to take the responsibility." He said and closed the door with his leg. Throwing me on the bed, he pulled his t-shirt over his head and was about to open mine when I stopped him. "What's the matter?"

"If we're going through your way, then let's consider my thought too."

"And what's your thought?" He asked and I pushed him back on the bed. "Wait a minute! Are you having any different and naughty thoughts?"

"Maybe."

"Like?"

"Like laying you down and kissing you senselessly." I said while nearing to his face.

"My wife is being bolder now-a-days!"

"Can't I?"

"You can, ofcourse. And I like this boldness." He said. I sat on his groin and he smiled mischievously before pulling my face towards him. "Teasing your husband isn't good."

"Don't we have equal rights?" I said and sat back, going away from his face. "You won't touch me."

"Huh?"

"You won't touch me. It's only me who'll do everything."

"Okay Mrs Chauhan."

"Sure Mr Chauhan." I smiled and placed my lips on his. While kissing, I felt him growing hard beneath several layers of clothes. Cupping his face, I pulled his upper lip while he was doing magic on my lower one.

Pulling back, I moved towards his neck and kissed him lightly. Licking his skin, I sucked it before giving a light bite. I sat back and traced his muscles with my fingers.

That's why he spends so much time in exercising!

I gave a light peck on his chest and kissed open-mouthed all over his sensitive areas. Just when I was about to pull his trousers, I saw his eyes shut tightly.

This man!

Going up again, I kissed his shoulder blade and felt him squeezing my butt. "Ayaan! I told you not to touch me."

"I can't..."

"What you can't?"

"I can't control anymore." He said and pushed me back on the bed. Hovering over me, he snaked my legs around his torso and leaned forward to slam his lips on mine. Grinding his hardness on my lower body, he cupped my face and shove his tongue inside my mouth while my fingers were tangled in between his locks. "Love you."

"Love you too." I said before mingling our breathe again.

××

Tossing around the bed, I felt something warm and snuggled close to it. I was feeling this tired after ages! Feeling cold, I pulled the blanket above my head and heard a deep groan. Sneaking my head out, I saw the room all dark.

Was it already night?

"Ayaan!"

"Hmm... Let me sleep... I'm not interested in other rounds."

"I'm not even inviting you. Why is it so dark? Is this time for dinner?"

"No... It's evening. I drew all the curtains or it would've disturbed sleep."

"You care about me?"

"Hmm... But that thing, I did it for myself." He said and I kicked his leg. "Easy, easy! I'm already tired enough to bear your tantrums."

"Who'll make the dinner?"

"You!"

"I'm tired too. It's not that I'm some super hero."

"Hmm..."

"Let's order something."

"No! I'll cook something. But rest for now."

"Okay." I said and snuggled more onto him. "Ayaan."

"Hmm..."

"Why did I marry you?" I looked up to him and asked.

"How would I know this? You should ask this from the business-minded Divya."

"Making fun of me?"

"Maybe."

"But think about one thing. Ours was neither love nor arranged. Then, contract marriage?"

"We never signed any contract."

"I was a fool to not consider that."

"That you were." He chuckled and I glared. "Do you want to eat something? We skipped our lunch."

"All because of you."

"All because of me? How? It was you who wanted more." He looked towards me with shock and asked.

"But you started it."

"But it was you who tempted me more."

"It isn't me. You are a tempter."

"I am..... what?" He hovered over me under the blanket and asked.

"Nothing."

"Really?" He asked and I nodded. Pulling me in his hold, he stood up and started walking towards the bathroom.

"What? I want to eat something."

"Let me show you all the shades of this tempter!"

TIED TOGETHER BY LOVE 💍

How was the chapter?

Second last chapter.

Any multilingual here?

We Indians are master in it!

Once upon a time I learnt basics of French. And then few months ago I started learning Mandarin.

And now when I want to say- 'I am very fine' in French,

I would mess it up by saying- 'Wǒ shì très bien'!!

Instead of- 'Je vais très bien'!!!
