Chapter 42

Siya's POV:

         I was so confused and irritated about the note then I made my mind to relax. Arjun promised me an outing today, almost after an year I could step  out of this god damn mansion.

         I fed Ari her lunch and put her to sleep, I need her to be fresh and active in the evening. My baby is gonna step outside the mansion and see the world for the first time, I really hope she enjoys...

           Hurriedly I packed her backpack with all her stuffs and hit the bed even I need sleep. After sleeping for a while hugging my baby, it was around 4:30 PM, I woke up and took a hot bath to relax my muscles. I then gave Ariya a bath. She loves bathing and enjoys water, silly girl.

       After making her wear her nappy, I played Frozen on the player. My baby is a Disney lover, she started looking at the television exited, in the mean time I dressed up.

     I planned to wear my jeans today with a thigh length white kurti top. It was simple and elegant, I applied eyeliner and Kajal to my eyes to highlight my big eyes and then put on a light onion pink lipstick.

               Walking to the closet, I started selecting dress for my baby, she always wears frocks but for a change I want her to look dashing today. So I picked a blue ripped jeans and a white floral lace baby shirt, pairing it up with an ivory shoe.

         "Something is missing!"  I thought, then fished out a jean cap with a white fur teddy on it. My baby will look super cute today. I went to the bed and tried to pick her but she slapped my hands and concentrated on her movie.

     I pulled her to me making her yell and shout with annoyance "Chiyaaa.....esa.....ahaahahaaa.." She started crying. She's a great fan of Elsa, my baby used to wangle her hands in the air to make ice rain but miserable that never happened. She's too young to know that it was just a movie.

            "Ari...here look what I got for you. Do you like this dress?" I asked her. A smile flashed her face and she hugged me. She loves dressing up, my baby - a typical girl.

    Eventually, I dressed her up, and guess what? She looks so yummy, I kissed her cheeks non-stop and she started giggling in my arms.

          Our room door opened and there entered Arjun with an uncountable amount of joy and happiness. Something good might have happened. He didn't look at me and went straight to Ariya.

   Ouch! That hurts... Nowadays I feel my daughter seeks all her dad's attention. He didn't even notice me when he entered. "But why am I feeling bad? " I questioned myself.

     "Because you love him!" Answered my heart.

     He pretend fainting on the bed and Ariya started patting his cheek. He opened his eyes and told "God! My heartbeat is looking so pretty and cute today. Daddy fainted looking at her beauty." With that he kissed her making me smile automatically.

          After leaving her to watch the movie, he scanned the whole room and found me within a second. He approached me while I turned to the closet.

       "Someone is looking beautiful today." He told me.

     "I know even I loved Ari's outfit, she's looking so pretty." I told still rampaging the cupboard.

       "I'm taking about Ariya's mother. She's looking breathtakingly beautiful today." Told him resting his chin on my shoulder slowly and carefully giving life to the dead butterflies in my tummy.

   So, at last he saw me!

           I wanna push him but I couldn't. Without a better option left, I stood still.

        "I'm so happy today wife, eventually everything is falling into places. I have changed our business and all the proprietary to our daughter's name. " I felt really happy for him he was actually very tesed about his business. Changing things to Ariya's name is the best because our daughter is our lucky charm.

    "I'm very happy for you Arjun." I told and gave him a smile.

     "I got this for her." He told showing me a box. I opened and saw a beautiful one stone baby diamond ring. It looked immensely expensive.

    " But Arjun she's a baby." He didn't listened to me and slipped the ring on her chubby baby finger. While ariya wetted his cheek lovingly in a name of kiss.

        "How's it? " he asked me.

      "It's beautiful... Ari baby don't bring it to your mouth, you're not suppose to do that. Am I clear?" I warned my baby, she nodded and jumped to my waist.

      "Mommy and baby give me fifteen minutes." Told Arjun and came back wearing a balck suit. Both Ariya and I gave a boring look to him.

      "Why? Am I not looking good?" He asked us. Without uttering a word, I walked into his closet and picked a faded blue jeans for him and paired it up with a white button up shirt.

         "If you dared to wear any of your suits around us again. I'll burn all of it. Now wear this and come fast." I told glaring at him while he was flashing a mouthwatering stylish smirk. I turned and walked towards our bed along with the giggling Ariya.

        After half an hour we sat on our white Audi which held many lovely memories of Arjun and I. Ariya looked fascinated when the massive gates of our mansion opened.

    She started jumping on my lap squealing and clapping her hands when our car was in the main road. She lived the current scenario only in the movies. My baby is out for the first time and every simple thing like cars, shops , traffic lights were such miracles for her. She kept turning my face to left and right with her delicate hands trying to speak.

        I'm very happy and felt abundant relife. Not only Ari, I was also exited because I'm out almost after a year.

       "Are you happy Siya?" Asked Arjun and I gave him a smile wholeheartedly, blinking my eyes.

      "I have a surprise for you. " told him.

     "What?" I asked.

    "You have to wait." Told Arjun with a tinge of cuteness.

        Our car came to a halt in front of a big boutique. I stepped inside and saw Sanjana Akka standing with Kavya. I hurriedly gave Ari to Arjun and ran to them. I hugged Sanjana Akka and carried Kavya in my arms.

     "How are you Chitti?" She asked me.
  
         "I'm fine my love... it's been so long since we met, How are you?" I asked kissing her cheeks.

       "I'm fine Chitti." With that she kissed my cheeks. She looked a little grown up and also more pretty than before.

       I turned around to see Arjun approaching me with a satisfied smile while my baby throwing draggers at me. I know, I literally threw her in her dad's arms.

      "Awww my sweet, come here... You can come to me." Sanjana Akka took Ari in her arms and kissed her nose making my baby blush.

    "Sanju be careful." It was Surya , I greeted him and turned to Sanjana Akka. What's the need to be careful? She's just holding my baby.

       I looked at her confused
" Actually...., Siya... I'm four months pregnant." Told Sanjana Akka making me more happy. It's really very nice to know someone close to your heart was finally happy. Sanjana Akka had had so much in her life and it's already late to witness her happiness.

       Ari got down from Sanjana akka's arms and stood in front of Kavya who was hugging my legs and looking at Ariya lovingly. I was expecting Ariya to pull Kavya's hair because my daughter is very possessive about me and Arjun.

Ms. Attitude!

        But to my complete amazement she stroked Kavya's face and told me "Chiyaaa.... esa...is esa...." She started jumping and hugged Kavya. While I started laughing at her innocence.

       "What's happening!" Asked Arjun spreading his hands over my shoulder.

     "Ari thinks, Kavya is her favorite Disney character Elsa..." I chucked shaking my head.

       "Chitti, I like her so much. Can I hold her?" Asked Kavya.

        "Ahaaa, my cute Kavya started talking perfectly, she's no more that small kid. And yeah you can hold her after all now you are a big sister." I told Kavya and both the kids started playing.

        We left the kids with their dads and started shopping. We took sarees for the festival and then we shopped for the Kids. Sanjana Akka selected outfit for Surya and forced me to select cloths for Arjun.

            She started complaining about her leg ache and sat on the waiting chair along with the kids and Surya. Soon I was left alone with Arjun.

          Actually, I felt really  happy and felt out of the world after many days. "Show me some traditional pattu(a fabric) dhothies and also white pattu shirts." I asked the shopkeeper. After twenty minutes, I selected Arjun's dress and it was sent to the billing counter. All the while Arjun was just looking at me with a creepy smile plastered on his face.

      "Wait... Show me that black shirt." I asked the shopkeeper. After selecting a black shirt of my choice and I sent it for billing.

        "You don't like black. Isn't it Siya, then why are you selecting one?" Asked Arjun.

       "Because you love it." I told him casually suddenly he pulled me closer to him.

        "But why Siya?" Asked Arjun and I understood his question.

       "Because you are a very good husband Arjun, you always takes care of me and our daughter not bothering your comforts. I'm your wife, your likes and dislikes matters to me. You are the best husband with a drawback of keeping secrets from me, that's the only thing I hate. Now stop stressing your brilliant brain so much and let's go home." I told him. His face lit up when I told everything but at last it fell down when I mentioned my hatred.

    Just tell me the truth my dear husband, next second I'll confess my love to you.

Idiot!

       Later we bid bye to Sanjana akka, Surya and had a tough time to drag Ariya from Kavya. She started crying and wailing for her Elsa... I mean Esa in her words. After a while she kept quite and stared at the street lights and the cars jammed in traffic.

           I closed my eyes leaning back on the seat pulling Ariya close to my chest. My eyes slowly fell on my husband who was driving the car with little annoyance because of the traffic.

               My man looks dashing in white with his sleeves folded up, that beard of his like a trimmed dark forest trees makes him look so manly. His nerves popping out of his arms as the rewards of his workouts. If our relationship was normal, I would openly drool on him instead of maintaining a cold and composed demeanor.

           He's actually breaking my walls slowly and I think at least today I should let go my attitude and love him with all my heart openly.

        He stopped the car into darkness suddenly, switching off the car headlights making Ari clutch my top out of fear and also me for that matters.

       "Arjun... Where are we? Switch on the lights." I told and held his arm tightly.

         He ignored me and got down the car, coming to my side he opened the door. I stepped down taking his hand, he took Ari from me.

         The next moment lights were on, making a path towards a table and guess what I felt cloud nine when I found where we were.

       We were in the beach!

            Ari got down from his arms, her face glowed in the light. she started running alongside the lights towards the table. This particular place was isolated but how come? I thought to myself.

         "This is our private beach love, Only we can come here. You me and my heartbeat." He answered my unasked question and took me to the table. He made me sit there and placed Ari in a baby chair.

        Arjun fed Ari the food I packed for her, after that we were served with the dinner. All were my favorites. There were Sweet corn Chicken Soup, Masala papad, Tandoori chicken, Palak Paneer, Fish Finger, Reshmi Kabab, Dragon Chicken, Channa Masala, Stuffed Nan, Paneer Kulcha, Parotta, Briyani. God! I thought I would burst having all of that and for the desert we had chocolate Almond brownie with ice cream.

            We heard a lovely music throughout the dinner it was from our baby girl " Fo de fir tim ogaa ola ola ogaa ooooo ga ga soone" she sang gazing at the starts through the deep sky.

          She was actually singing the song *For The First Time And Forever....* From Frozen, but in her own language, only I can comprehend that.

         "So how was it? Do you like our date today wife." Asked Arjun. I took hold of his hand and told him sincerely "It was wonderful Arjun, I really enjoyed it. This is such a memorable and beautiful day of my life. Thank you." I thanked my hubby darling with all my heart.

       Arjun kissed my palm making me shiver, the intensity in his eyes were boring into my soul. He helped Ari get down her seat and she started walking in between us holding both of our hands plastering a sad expression on her face. She didn't like leaving this place and so was me.

   Suddenly Arjun stopped in his tracts and asked "Now who's gonna catch me?" Raising his brows up like a bow.

           He started running all the way into the sand and Ari was trying to catch him. Is he the real angry young man I loved, who always used to wander with a serious and deadly expression?

          "Chiyyaaaa..." I was brought back to reality when my daughter called me. "Don't worry baby I'll help you." I told Ari making Arjun send me a challenging smirk. I then started running behind him but I couldn't catch him. And then it was my turn to run both father and daughter were trying to catch me.

        The air filled with our laughter, pants, sound of waves and beautiful giggling of our daughter.

           All on a sudden a hand sneaked around my tummy and we both fell on the Sand. "Caught you!" Told Arjun. Breathing heavily I kept my head on his chest and laid on the sand. His hands were around me, I was lifted up and down by his abs due to his heavy breathing, Ari came running to us and sat beside us panting and tired.

            She removed her cap and  started playing by filling it with sand ignoring her drooping eyes with sleep. She was busy playing and I was busy hugging her dad.

      This is one best day of my life! And this is one beautiful side of Arjun I have never seen. I love it. I want him like this all my life.

Precap - His hands were around my waistline, slowly crushing me to him making various heavenly sensations arose in my body. I hugged his bare chest keeping my head pressed against his, hearing his heart beat.

              Tears slid down my eyes on it's own accord making me tighten my grip on him every passing second.
