Author's POV:

After coming back to café from office megha was in an awful mood. So Madhu just tried to cheer her up by playing her all time favourite movie 'letters to Juliet' and placed all the snacks on the table before them. After sometime megha got engrossed in the movie and after finishing it she dozed off on the couch. She went to college at morning and after returning she got busied herself in cooking, the day was very busy for her so her body wants rest. Madhu informed her parents that they were staying night at the café and have girls night to which she got an earful from her mother.

It was almost midnight when the boys came from the office. Madhu received them while megha was as usual sleeping like a kumbhakarn(an indian mythical character who spends his entire years by eating for six months and another six months in sleeping).

Karthik hugged madhu and kissed her forehead wearing off his tiredness. Koushu just went to see megha and sat on the table beside couch to clearly look at her beautiful face while caressing her cheeks with the back of his hand. He couldn't forget how she fought with vaishnavi emphasizing he is her man. She claimed her full rights on him publically which made him very happy. He was proud of her standing up for him.

"I never knew our megha has this side." Karthik slowly stated with Madhu while looking at megha.

"That's because you didn't know everything about her. Moreover it's about Ram. She would never just sit still. Do you know how much she loves him. She fell in love with him just by looking at his photo. And do you believe what she did on that day?" She asked Karthik who looked at her with a disbelief look. Even koushu didn't knew about him being her first love. Though he was sitting beside megha their talks were clearly audible to him. He wanted to know everything about that. He turned around and asked what happened on that day.

Madhu filled them about how her father asked her to marry and she agreed. Then how she fell in love with him by just looking at his photo. He bumped into her in the café but didn't recognise her. Some random girl made a scene after causing accident by herself. And how megha punctured her tire because she messed with ram.

After listening to this the boys were astonished. Their jaws were hitting the floor and eyes were widened. Koushu was feeling immense happiness knowing her love for him. She loved him even before she knows him. Almost 3 days before he even knew that she existed. He seems to love her everyday a bit more than the previous day. After sometime he lift her in his arms in bridal style and went to the car to left her home. He didn't even tried to wake her up as he very well knows of her habit of sleeping like a log.

After coming to their flat he again lift her and closed the car door with his leg. He locked the car and went to their apartment. Thank God their home had installed with a security lock rather than normal lock. He pressed the code and entered after closing the door he put her carefully on the bed and went back to lock the door. He again came into the bedroom and slept taking her in his arms after freshing up himself.

The next morning everything seemed to normal except megha was ignoring koushu and not talking to him. He tried different ways to talk to her but she was just totally angry with him. When he ask her why wasn't she talking to him she just told him
"Because you didn't believe me, you didn't believe in our relationship. That's why you didn't told me about her being pursue you again. Did you thought I wouldn't believe you. Did you thought I would get hurt knowing you're working with her. Didn't you believe when I said I love you that I really mean it. Didn't you thought that I would stand by you irrespective of circumstances and have faith in you no matter what. You insult my love by not sharing your worries and burdens with me. I'm hurt by your behaviour. I need sometime to come terms with your way of dealing things." Saying she left for college.

Sighing he left for office. At evening he came home with a flower bouquet. He doesn't want her to stay away from him. And absolutely don't want her to stay angry or upset with him. He already knows his mistake. He accepted what he did was wrong. He decided to share his feelings with her from now on. Afterall she is his wife, who else would be able to accept him as him if not for his wife, who took vows to stand by his side in everything.

When he gave her the bouquet she turn away from him without talking to him but not before taking the flowers from him. She arranged them in a vase in their bedroom and went to kitchen to make dinner to where he follows behind her like a lost puppy. He was grabbing the bottle which she wanted to grab and tried to help her in things which was nothing but making more mess in the kitchen.

Finally she gave up on cooking and went from there saying 'she don't want to cook anything now and let's starve themselves today.' Accomplishing what he wanted to do he cleaned the kitchen and ordered two large Mexican greenwave and cheese burst pizzas, chicken nuggets, large bucket of chicken wings and some sprite for the dinner. He made himself comfortable on couch and started to fishing out the movies which probably megha likes and spend time with him. At the time he selected the movie their order also came and he arranged it in the living room. Since he knows how much she liked iron man he selected the same movie though he was jealous of Tony shark right now, he would let it slide till she become normal with him. He intentionally raised the volume for her to know what was playing on the TV. He didn't disappointed when she makes her presence in the living room not long after the movie started.

When he cutely said sorry saying he would never kept things from her and would always share his feelings with her along with a plate of her favourite Mexican greenwave pizza and chicken wings, she melted immediately and gave him a breathtaking smile not before warning him never do that again. They spend the rest of their night with cuddling and enjoying their date leisurely.

After two days...

When koushu opened his eyes feeling someone caress his hair softly he opened his eyes lazily. He saw his wife was leaning to his face sitting beside him on the bed. She was wearing a purple colour saree with black blouse looking like an angel. Her wet hair was caressing his neck and chest giving tingling sensation. She was beautifully smiling at him just like the morning sunrays. She was caressing his hair gazing lovingly at him. When he tuck her hair which were falling off on her shoulder she leaned to him and gave a long peck on his lips.

"Happy birthday." She softly murmured against his lips and leaned back.

"Thank you." He gave her a lazy smile.

"Come on. Come on. Get up and get ready. Today we're going to temple and give your workout a rest." Saying this he dragged him off the bed and send him off to the bathroom with a towel. She arranged his clothes which were maroon colour shirt and blue jeans, completely contrast to his style. But if she wants, she would get that. After he got ready she gave a kiss on his cheek and gave a small box saying that's his birthday gift. He was totally enjoying the constant kisses and attention from her today. He wanted everyday to be like this. When he opened the box he found a gold ring with My Mr. engraved on it. She instructed him to never ever took his ring off as it was showing others that he's hers. He felt happy hearing that and gave her a forehead kiss while thanking her. Then they went to the temple and offered prayer to the god. Upon returning they have their breakfast. When koushu was getting ready for the office megha went to him.

"Koushu, if I give you something would you accept it." She carefully asked him while looking cutely at him.

"Didn't I accept your gift today. Well I'm always ready to take whatever you give " He winked while wounding his hands around her waist and then closed his eyes while pouting his lips a little expecting her to kiss him. She just put her hand on his mouth and created distance between them saying "it's not that." He raised his eyebrow and asked "what else?"

"This is some money which I've been saving up from my college days along with the savings from my salary, it includes the monthly pocket money you gave me for my expenses, there was also money which I saved up from the house expenses. I want you to take this and complete the loan on our house and car. I want our home to be completely ours on this beautiful day. I want us to have complete rights on our home not the bank." She finished giving him a check. He heaved a long sigh and cupped her cheek.

"Lilliput, there's not much loan left anyway. Trust me if I say I could take care of it. I want you to use this money for yourself. I need you to enjoy your life to the fullest and buy whatever you want. I don't want you to worry about all these things. I was already making some investments for our future. You're husband is completely capable of taking care of you and our family. Okay. So keep this with yourself and shop something for yourself." He said very softly and gave her a forehead kiss.

"So you don't want me to share your responsibilities. You didn't think that I'm capable enough to share your burdens. You didn't think of me as your equal. You still think we are seperate. You didn't feel about us as us. You feel insult taking money from your wife right." She started her melodrama faking crying. He just tensed up and tried to persuade her but no use. He at last took the check and promised her to pay off the loan today and get the house papers to home when he return from work. She smilingly sent him to office as she took leave today.

At evening when he return home with the house papers, he was surprised to see his parents and parents in-laws, raga, madhu in his house. Not so long after Karthik also joined them. They celebrate his birthday together and have a hefty dinner with all the delicacies according to koushu's likings. After dinner everyone started to their respective homes. Koushu wanted his parents and her parents to be stay back. Since raga has exams her parents couldn't stay back and they left.

When his father wanted to get an aspirin from koushu's room megha stopped him. Koushu felt weird looking at her behaviour.

"Mavayya, This room was closed. Actually A.C. was not working and water drops were dripping from it. I think it needs service so I closed the room. Aspirin is in guest room. I'll just get it for you." Saying she started to go to guest room when koushu came there and told "Really, it was fine this morning. When did it broke. Let me check it once." Saying he tried to go into the room.

Megha was helplessly trying to stop him from entering. Just then her mother-in-law came to her rescue.

"Here, have this aspirin, it's getting late already, come on our cab would be arriving at any minute." She said to her husband giving him his medicine.

"What the need to go at this night. You can go tomorrow. Dad already have headache, you both should rest here today." Koushu spoke much to megha's dismay. It's not like she doesn't want them to stay back, it's just....

His mom insisted to go and his father was not any less. Finally when their cab arrived she gave a forehead kiss to his son while his father hugged him. His father lovingly patted megha's hair and went out when her mother-in-law hugged her to say goodbye.

"Enjoy the night." Her mother-in-law whispered in megha's ear to which megha's eyes widen.

"Sorry. It's not like I peeked. I just happened to see while searching for you." She sheepishly said while caressing her cheek. Then soon they both left. Megha just blushed furiously with embarrassment while koushu looked at her weirdly as not understanding what happened to her.

As soon as they were left alone megha dragged koushu to their bedroom door.

"Fresh up and change into the outfit I kept for you in the room. Don't ask any questions and don't come out. I'll be there soon okay." Saying that she thrown him into the room left for guest room to get herself ready.

As soon as koushu entered the bedroom he was astonished by looking at the all arrangements. He now understood why she took a day off from the college. The room was completely decorated with flowers just like their marital bed. It was looking like today is their first night. He looked at the outfit which Megha kept for him. It was the same outfit which he wore on their first night. He freshened up and eagerly waiting for megha. Soon enough megha also came in her saree which she wore on that day with a milk glass in her hand.

She stood by the door looking at the ground with shyness. He got up from the bed upon looking her enter and took long strides to reach her. He raise her chin by using his index and thumb finger and looked at her beautiful face. Her eyes were still looking down but a beautiful smile was adorned her face.

"Thank you so much for the surprise. This is the most memorable day of my life." He told her with lot of emotions.

"I wanted to recreate the day which we never got to celebrate. I wanted to gift myself to you in every possible way on your birthday. That's why I used to get myself away from you these past weeks. I wanted to have our first time in most memorable way which we missed. I want us to become one on this memorable day" She expressed softly looking into his eyes. He was overwhelmed with her confession and felt so lucky to have her in his life.

He lift her up in his arms careful of the milk glass to not spill and went to bed. He sat on the bed with her in his lap sideways. She showed him the milk which he took and have some then he kept it at her mouth to drink which she did. He insisted her to drink more to which she nodded in no . So he drank up all the milk and place the empty glass on the side table.

"Thank God! You remember to share the milk. I thought like last time you would finish all the milk without leaving even a drop for me." She mocked him.

"Sorry. I was hell of nervous at that time. And you dolled up for me was not helped either. So it just happened." His ears were already turned pink with embarrassment. Megha just chuckled looking at him.

Soon the atmosphere turned very hot even with the lowest temperature of A.C. she was still on his lap and he was playing with her bangle cladded hand.

He joined his fingers in between her fingers and took it to his mouth. He started to leave butterfly kisses from her hand to her arm and then her shoulders. His moustache was scratching her making her squirm in his hold. His days old trimmed beard was adding fuel on to the fire. Butterflies were dancing salsa and Samba in her stomach. He started to nibble her neck and then took her earlobe between his teeth. He lightly grazed it with his teeth and gave a kiss there making her moan.

"Do you know how much I awaited for this moment." He asked her huskily.

"Not more than me." Saying with the same fervent she hugged him hiding her face in his crook of neck. They hugged tightly each other locking their lips in an ardent kiss, feeling each others bodies and enjoying each others warmth. Soon the clothes were discarded and the cool night was melted in the heats of passion.
