Ishan was dragging a sleepy Shubman through the sunday crowd of Kolkata.

Baby atleast tell me where are we going?

Shubman whinned for the ninth time.

Suva suva kaha jate hay Shubi?

Kaha?

Shubman asked innocently.

Ishan facepalmed.

Breakfast baby , Breakfast.

Ohhh! Firse kal wali jagah pe chalenge?

Shubman asked exitedly. Honestly he loved yesterday's Breakfast.

Ishan smirked.

So you like it huh!!

Shubman blushed at being caught.

Nope , today we are going to Dacres Lane.

After sometimes they reached at the old yet nostalgic place. They stopped before an old shop saying , 'chitto Babur Dokan'
(Chitto Babu's shop).

As usual Shubman was about to snicker but stopped seeing Ishan's murderous glare.
(True agar koi mere samne iss jagah ke bareme ulta sidha bole ek thappar lagane ka mann karta hay😑)

Shubman gulped.

T-to hum yaha keya khane wale hay jaan?

Hmmm ,  butterd toaste and chiken stew.

Kyu koi bimar hay keya?

Matlab?
Ishan asked confusedly.

Nehi matlab ye to patients ka khana hay.

Shubman started laughing but the joke was not even a bit funny to Ishan.

Shubman was laughing his ass off when he felt Ishan grabbing his collar harshly. Opening his eyes he knew he fucked up.

Ishan was fuming in anger.

Mrs.Shubman fucking Gill , did I ever said bad about your favourite dishes?

Shubman shaked his head as no.

Did I ever said that eating aloo pratha everyday is damn boaring?

Again Shubman denied.

Did I said that most of the panjabi food are too oily and spicy?

N-no jaan.

THEN WHO GAVE YOU THE FUCKING PERMISSION TO DISRESPECT MY FAVOURITE DISHES HUH??

At this point the whole crowd was looking at them enjoying the family drama. Shubman felt hella embarrassed.

I am sorry baby. Really sorry. I will eat whatever you want. But please don't shout here. People are watching.

So you are saying sorry because people are watching?

N-no absolutely not. I am really sorry.

Ishan scoffed.

Now I regret my decision of choosing you over any Bengali man.

Ishan obviously spat it in anger but Shubman's heart stopped at his last line.

Does Ishan really regret marrying him?

Is he not enough for him?

They ate Ishan's favourite breakfast which was surprisingly too good. But Shubman wasn't in a place to enjoy the taste. His brain was revolving around those words.

After eating Ishan's anger subsided so he forgot what he has said and exitedly hopped outside with a very silent Shubman following him.

Next they went to explaned for doing some shopping. Ishan started buying things for his two families. Shubman was carrying his shopping bags.

Next Ishan took him to the metro station.

Pata hay Shubi kolkata metro is the oldest metro in India.

Ishan was describing kolkata metro's history merrily that's when he noticed the unusual silence of Shubman.

Their next spot was Eden Garden.

Shubi seee this is Eden Garden. Ye to pata hay na apko?

Shubman nodded mindlessly. Ishan felt a bit disappointed. He expected Shubman to like this place. That's why he took him here.

Shubi keya bat hay? Are you not feeling well?

Ishan's voice latched with concern.

No response came from Shubman.

Ishan had enough now.

He made Shubman look at him forcefully and was about to give a good hearing but stopped seeing his slightly teary eyes.

Meri jaan keya huya?

Ishan was desperately.

Baby please tell me what's wrong?

Shubman gulped the lamp of tears. He can't cry for this silly reason. What will Ishan think about him?

K-kuch nehi. Chalo na wapas chale.

Shubman pleaded in a small voice.

Why baby?

Wapas chalo n-naa.

Shubman couldn't hold back anymore. The waterwork started. He hugged Ishan tightly as if someone will snacth Ishan if he loose the hold.

On the other hand Ishan was feeling helpless. He started crassing Shubman's back while whispering sweet nothings to his ears in order to calm down the big baby.

And it worked. Gradually his sobs subsided.

Ishan made him look up and crassed his cheeks lovingly.

Feeling better?

Shubman nodded.

Wanna talk about it?

Ishan asked gently as if he was talking with some kid.

Shubman denied and Ishan decided not to force it.

Hungry?

Shubman nodded like a small child.

Ishan chukled at his antics.

Let's fill your tummy.

They went to Mitro cafe for lunch and had a delicious lanch. Shubman's mood was much better now.

A-ab kaha jayenge?

Shubman asked still in a small voice.

Aap ko kaha jana hay?

Jaha tum chaho.

Achha bus ekbar st. Paul's church chate hay fir hotel jayenge okay?

Shubman agreed.

They visited the beautiful cruch and finally came back to their room.

Shubman was silent as usual and Ishan was thinking about ways to made Shubman open up.

The moment the steeped in the room Ishan grabbed Shubman forcefully.

Ab bataye bat keya hay?

Shubman was about to deny....

Jhoot mat bolie apko bolna nehi ata.

Shubman looked down. Now the reason felt very silly to him.

Ishan rubbed his hands assuringly.

W-woh do you really regret choosing me Ishan?

Shubman finally said it in one breath.

Huh?

Ishan was hella confused. When did he say that?

Kaysi bate kar rahe ho aap? Why would I regret?

Shubman looked up.

Tum-tumne hi to kaha suve ki you regret choosing me over some benagli man.

Shubi wo--

No Ishan let me speak. I know that I am not capable of understanding your emotions always but trust me I love you Ishan. I will do whatever you want for the rest of my life. Please don't leave me. Please....

Ishan took a varnarable Shubman in his warm embrace.

Shhh. Rote nehi. Chup pagal. Shubi , what ever I said I am sorry for that. I really didn't mean it baby.

Pata hay aapse pehele bohot sare riste aye the mere liye aur unme se kuch bengali vi the.

Shubman looked at his with his wet doe eyes.

Ishan pinched his cheeks.

Par keya kare mera dil ek panjabi pe jo a gaya. Trust me Shubi choosing you was my best decision.

Shubman felt his cheeks hit up at the confession.

Am sorry for being childish.

Don't be. Yeah it's true that you are a crybaby.

Shubman pouted.

But you are my crybaby.

Shubman blushed again.

Baby , it seems like you are top and I am bottom.

Shubman whinned.

Ishan laughed loudly.

So what do you think I can't top you , huh?

We will see that.

Shubman smirked while coming closer.

Huh! No go to shower now.

Babyyyyy!!

Shubman whinned.

Go go shuuu!!

Jayunga ek sart par.

Keya?

Let's bath together pleaseeeeee.

Shubman said giving his best puppy eyes.

Ishan blushed but agreed nonetheless.

So that's how they ended up in bathtub together.
